Tian Meng Ice Silkworm quickly grasped the true marvel of the Spirit Soul Contract, its short forelimbs placed rather ostentatiously at its waist: “It can actually be done like this!
Haha, watch my skills!”
The Origin spiritual energy accumulated by Tian Meng Ice Silkworm was compressed and released again.
Ten golden spheres of spiritual Origin transformed into a golden torrent, pouring into Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Eye Martial Soul in a gentle manner.
In later generations, especially in the eras of Tang Wulin and Lan Xuanyu, those Vicious Beast Spirit Souls could provide more than one spirit ring.
As a Million-Year Soul Beast, although Tian Meng Ice Silkworm’s combat strength was inferior to a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast, it was an absolute powerhouse in terms of spirit and Soul.
Even lacking offensive methods, providing two Million-Year spirit rings was achievable.
In just a short while, two massive golden spirit rings with a diameter of three meters appeared beside Huo Yuhao.
The dazzling golden light was as brilliant as the rising sun, illuminating the forest brightly, but it immediately dimmed and changed color, becoming two purple Thousand-Year spirit rings.
Little Yuhao’s spirit power, which had been stuck at Rank 20, rapidly increased: Rank 21, Rank 22, Rank 23…
it soared all the way to Rank 28 before stopping.
During these two years, Little Yuhao continuously practiced the [Spirit Ice Art], which included methods for compressing spirit power.
Combined with the constant nurturing of his own Qi and blood by his spirit power, and the Qi and blood feeding back into the spirit power, on the surface, he only increased his spirit power by 8 Ranks.
However, looking purely at the total amount of spirit power, Little Huo Yuhao was in no way inferior to an ordinary attack system Spirit Elder at Rank 39.
Baili Du had told Little Huo Yuhao that in this damned place called the Douluo Continent, Rank was just for show.
Before, the Rank 98 Xuan Zi was unable to defeat the Rank 50 Death Messenger, and later, the Rank 69 Lan Xuanyu fought to a draw with the Rank 99 Limit Douluo…
What was truly useful was always one’s own hard power.
“Hehe…
Truly worthy of being the host Brother chose!”
Tian Meng proudly wiped its nose, looking like Brother’s Luck hadn’t been surpassed since those years!
…Watching Little Yuhao, who had already completed the Fusion with Tian Meng and was entering advanced meditation, [Baili Du] paused, casually placed a defensive barrier beside him, and then turned to walk towards the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Since he had made the rare trip, it would be wrong not to go take a look.
He looked for that Her…
He muttered while walking, “Just one look, I’ll just take one look, one look is enough.”
For him, a distance of several hundred miles was just a few steps.
He soon arrived at the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The [Emotion God King], who was once almost fearless of everything, now resembled a shy young boy about to meet the girl he loved, stiffly shuffling his steps, afraid to see that Her…
He touched his forehead, where the almost shattered ultimate artifact: eye of eternity was slowly emitting a soft golden light of fate, seemingly resonating excitedly because it was about to meet its true owner.
Dragging his somewhat stiff steps, even though he was hesitant to see her, he finally did.
It was a very peculiar Spirit Beast, over three meters long and eight feet high at the shoulder, covered entirely in a layer of brilliant golden fur.
Its entire body seemed like translucent crystal, full of a strange texture.
Its overall form resembled a lion, but its four claws were like a Dragon’s, and beneath each Dragon claw rested a ball of golden flame.
Its mouth was also longer than that of a lion-type Spirit Beast, and beneath the fur, there appeared to be fine golden scales.
Besides its normal pair of eyes, it actually possessed a third eye, a vertical pupil.
Its two normal eyes held a hint of bewitching red, while the light emitted from its vertical pupil was golden, almost identical to the eye of eternity on his forehead.
It seemed to be hunting, pausing briefly in place before its gaze sharply focused towards the northwest.
It was the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, which should have been the [Beast of Luck], working alongside the [planes child] to change the hostile relationship between humans and Spirit Beasts.
“!!!”
[Baili Du] felt as if his entire being had gone hazy, swaying slightly as if he couldn’t stand steady.
His vision was filled with mist…
Although it might not sound good, after marrying Tang Wutong, he found himself increasingly nostalgic for the days when he endured hardships with Wang Qiuer.
“Qiuer…
Qiuer…”
He bit his lip tightly, his hands unconsciously clenched, his nails digging deep into his flesh.
Unwillingness and anger constantly battered his sanity, making him want to rush up to the God Realm right now and fight Tang San to the death.
For no other reason than to vent anger for Qiuer!
The words Tang San had lied to him echoed uncontrollably in his mind.
[That Wang Qiuer was actually just a trace of Divine Sense I separated from Wutong attached to that Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
Otherwise, even if it was a Divine Beast of Destiny, it wouldn’t possess so much intelligence.
Therefore, you don’t need to feel sad about Wang Qiuer anymore.
She was originally a part of Wutong.
Only after Wang Qiuer sacrificed herself to you did that part of Divine Sense return to Wutong, allowing Wang Dong’er to completely transform into Wutong.]
Nonsense!
Tang San is talking absolute nonsense!!!
A Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast could already understand human speech, and a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast possessed wisdom no less than a human’s.
The Fifteen Thousand Year Emperor Auspicious Beast was inherently a revelation of spiritual intelligence; how could its wisdom have been awakened by the Divine Sense of a little girl born in the God Realm!?
Even taking a step back, no matter how gifted Princess Tang was, what wisdom could a few-year-old child possess?
Furthermore, based on her behavior in the original timeline, and Baili Du’s own observations over decades, to be honest, Princess Tang truly did not fit the description of ‘clever’.
Hmm…
she also didn’t inherit the astonishing wisdom of her father, Tang San.
At least this point deserves praise.
After panting heavily a few times, and under the persuasion of the Snow Empress and Liya within his Sea of Divine Sense, Baili Du finally calmed down and slowly opened his clenched hands.
Then, very nervously, he walked step by step toward the Emperor Auspicious Beast…
For some reason, the Emperor Auspicious Beast, which was originally pursuing the fleeing Light Demon Tiger, suddenly trembled and turned its head to look in the direction where Baili Du was.
From the Emperor Auspicious Beast’s perspective, that spot was empty ground, yet for some reason, her gaze was uncontrollably drawn to this side.
Mysteriously, it felt as if its neck was gently embraced, and something like a drop of water seemed to fall onto the nape of its neck.
Warmth…
pain…
self-reproach…
and a deep love…
These complex emotions gently enveloped it, leaving it somewhat at a loss.
A line of clear tears also fell from its pair of red pupils.
Crying?
Why was it crying?
A voice sounded near its ear, seemingly an auditory hallucination, yet as gentle as a dream murmur, making it want to cry.
[It is my fault…
I am sorry to the Spirit Beasts…
I don’t even have the ability to seek justice for you now.
All I can do is offer this small compensation…]
[Qiuer…
Qiuer…]
Its forehead felt a slight sting, followed by a warm current flowing from the eye of eternity throughout its entire body.
It was energy purified to the extreme, pouring into every corner of its body without reservation, so comfortable that it couldn’t help but close its eyes.
Its body’s absorption rate for this power was incredibly high.
Its cultivation level soared as if riding a rocket, without any discomfort.
Fifteen Thousand Years…
Twenty Thousand Years…
Thirty Thousand Years…
Fifty Thousand Years…
One Hundred Thousand Years!
In the blink of an eye, it abruptly transformed into a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was indeed a beast of good fortune favored by Destiny.
Normally, when a Spirit Beast ascended to the Hundred Thousand Year Rank, a Heavenly Tribulation would block its advancement, but for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, no Heavenly Tribulation occurred; there was only the increasingly dense Origin Qi of heaven and earth and the nine-colored rosy clouds in the sky.
After more than ten minutes, its cultivation soared another fifty thousand years!
A full One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Years of cultivation!
Its current age was ten times greater than before!
A Fifteen Thousand Year Three-Eyed Golden Lion could already rival a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast; no one knew how powerful it would be now with One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Years of cultivation.
After an unknown amount of time, the surging cultivation finally stopped.
But the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was not happy; instead, its heart felt empty, unable to let go for a long time.
Who was it, then?
