Mo Yuan had heard many people say he could dispatch a tiger with a single slide tackle, but he had never seen one. But today, he saw it.
Two words: Awesome!
Not only was Mo Yuan stunned, but even Huo Yuhao, the person involved, was bewildered, and it took him a while to process.
But just as he finally made up his mind to absorb the ten-year spirit ring after a long period of hesitation, a sly voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Finally, I've met a human with spiritual attributes. It's a shame I can't cry, or I'd be in tears!"
The moment Huo Yuhao heard this voice, the ground at his feet suddenly cracked open, emitting an icy chill, and the moisture instantly froze into icy mist.
Mo Yuan, taking in all this, breathed rapidly.
Here it comes! The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!
Then, a dark figure suddenly emerged from the crack, revealing itself to the dense forest. It was a white silkworm with ten golden lines on its back!
"Hehe! Spiritual-type soul master, your Brother Tianmeng is about to enter your body!"
Accompanying these frivolous words, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm instantly transformed into streams of white light and poured into the stunned Huo Yuhao.
Pain! So much pain!
This was Huo Yuhao's last feeling. Before he could even utter a word of protest, a chilling aura instantly knocked him unconscious.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Huo Yuhao began to merge, and simultaneously, an invisible spiritual force emanated from it.
The spiritual power unleashed by the million-year-old spiritual-type soul beast was terrifying, almost instantly covering every corner within a radius of a hundred kilometers. All intelligent life instantly froze, as if time had been paused by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
But this ultimately couldn't stop Mo Yuan. Otherwise, knowing all this, he wouldn't have tried to intercept Ilex again.
As that terrifying spiritual force enveloped the forest, and Ning Tian and Wu Feng lost consciousness, Mo Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. Unlike before, this time, his golden pupils seemed to be blazing with a deep red flame.
His eyes were filled with brutality and murderous intent!
His body was like a furnace, the Black King's blood boiling! Scales, pitch black, almost inky black, sprouted from Mo Yuan's neck! Black bone spurs pierced his body, spreading throughout his body!
With a crackling sound, the gaps between Mo Yuan's bones disappeared, and hundreds of new bones pierced through his flesh and grew wildly, instantly forming a perfect armor within his body.
His muscles began to bulge violently, each muscle fiber visible like a twisted steel cable.
With a hissing sound of flesh being torn apart, his black windbreaker shattered, and a pair of hideous black membrane wings unfurled from behind Mo Yuan, stained with blood!
Finally, the black scales that had pierced his skin transformed into an icy mask, completely obscuring Mo Yuan's brutal and hideous face, revealing only his scarlet-gold eyes, which seemed to flow with blood!
A third blood burst!
Dragonization!
Mo Yuan then immediately erupted in blood three times, mobilizing Black King Nidhogg within the Sea of Mind!
Wouldn't the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's million-year-old spiritual power be enough to shatter a Titled Douluo? So, how would you respond if I summoned Black King Nidhogg?
Within the Sea of Mind, Black King Nidhogg seemed to regain consciousness under the stimulation of Mo Yuan's blood burst. Sensing the spiritual forces surrounding him intent on imprisoning him, he suddenly spread his wings, covered in skeletons, and roared.
Instantly, with the sound of shattering glass, Mo Yuan was no longer affected by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's spiritual power!
"Roar!"
A deep roar erupted from Mo Yuan's throat. The sound was almost unhuman, reminiscent of only one creature—a dragon.
Even with Black King Nidhogg's protection within the Sea of Mind, Mo Yuan's mind continued to slide uncontrollably towards the abyss.
Three minutes,
at most, was all he had left to maintain his sanity.
Mo Yuan's scarlet-gold eyes, filled with brutality and ferocity, gazed toward the dense forest to the north, faintly emitting a golden glow and a chilling aura. Then, he began to flap his black wings.
Lifted by the wind element, he soared into the sky, carrying a raging wind, and flew north at breakneck speed.
At this moment, he was like an emperor. If anyone tried to stop him from achieving what he desired, he would crush them with absolute violence!
...
Whoosh… Whoosh…
In the pin-drop silence, the sound of air tearing suddenly echoed.
"Hmm?" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, currently merging with Huo Yuhao, released a wisp of consciousness and carefully observed its surroundings. This fusion hinged on its life and property, its future, and its prosperity; not a single mistake could go wrong.
"Why do I suddenly have this ominous feeling?"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm observed its surroundings warily. The process of its wisdom spirit ring being formed was essentially similar to a sacrifice, releasing a powerful spiritual field that even a Titled Douluo or a hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast could not interfere with.
But even though it didn't believe that anyone or any spirit beast outside the Star Dou Great Forest could ignore its spiritual field, the sense of foreboding and the faint sound of the wind that lingered in its heart were undeniable!
In an instant, the faint sound grew piercing, like the whistling of countless arrows piercing the air.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked in the direction of the sound and easily discovered the source of its ominous feeling.
Mo Yuan, his ferocious black membranous wings flapping, his body covered in inky scales. His eyes, filled with brutality and murder, brought undeniable death and disaster upon him!
"Oh my god! What the hell is this thing?!"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm stared in astonishment at those soul-destroying, crimson-gold eyes. Given a choice, it would choose to confront Mo Yuan directly or return to the Lake of Life!
Putting aside Mo Yuan's inhuman appearance, the mere sight it saw upon discovering him and using its mental power to investigate was enough to shatter its heart.
Atop a black mountain, blanketed in drifting snow, stood a massive black dragon. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had never seen such a majestic and terrifying dragon before. It was so ferocious yet beautiful, so awe-inspiring yet so suffocating. Its
black membranous wings, festooned with skulls, unfurled with ferocity, unleashing a hurricane that threatened to rend the heavens.
Those pitch-black scales made him seem the embodiment of death and disaster, his very appearance spelling the end of all things!
His terrifying might couldn't even be compared to Emperor Tian, who had reached 890,000 years of cultivation!
So, what level could the Black Dragon, who couldn't even compare to Emperor Tian, the closest to a god, hold?
A terrifying thought raced through the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's mind, but it dared not dwell on it.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt like crying, but it had no tears. Without the protection of its spiritual realm, it and Huo Yuhao, in their fusion stage, were no different from fish on the chopping block, helpless to be slaughtered by Mo Yuan.
"Oh, Heaven! Oh, Earth! Am I going to die just now, having finally escaped those ferocious beasts, at the first glimmer of hope? No!"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm began to pray inwardly again, "Brother! No, Dad! Please, Dad! Don't kill me!"
Unfortunately, Mo Yuan couldn't hear its pleas, and Mo Yuan didn't care about the inner thoughts of a lump of protein; he only wanted Alex.
Martial Souls are more valuable when they're refined than when they're plentiful. Furthermore, twin Martial Souls, aside from being easier to break through bottlenecks, aren't particularly useful in high-level duels.
He's stuck with the same few skills, and over a hundred Word Spirits are more than enough. Coupled with the Dragon Clan's most powerful alchemy and a fully developed dragon body in the later stages, he simply doesn't have the time to cultivate a second Martial Soul.
Only the Holy Necromancer Ilex is his most desired possession.
Of course, there's another crucial reason:
this is the Dou Er timeline, and the chaste Tang San has already attained godhood. With his "perfect" personality, what if his prepared pawn is destroyed? And
what if Tang San finally sets his sights on Mo Yuan? That would be a disaster.
After his crimson-gold eyes glared coldly at the unconscious Huo Yuhao, Mo Yuan slowly closed his eyes, suppressing the rage and murderous intent that was raging within him, while quietly awaiting Ilex's arrival.
Seeing that Mo Yuan merely glanced at them without making a move, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thanking himself for having saved his life. Then, he suddenly increased the speed of his fusion, and took the opportunity to communicate with the awakened Huo Yuhao in the Sea of Spirit to strengthen their relationship.
