Chapter 92 The Choice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm
"This—this is impossible—"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm trembled all over, its small golden eyes filled with fear.
"I clearly met Brother Hao by chance, how could it be that someone arranged this?"
"If that's really the case, then what exactly is the value of my millions of years of accumulation?"
After listening to Huo Yuhao's story, Bingdi's expression turned extremely gloomy.
It's true that she looks down on Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
However, she also couldn't accept that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was a million-year-old soul beast, and that Tang San had indeed schemed against her.
"Two generations of sea gods in a row have actually schemed against us soul beasts like this!"
Ice Emperor, enraged, recounted to Huo Yuhao the history of ten thousand years, even tens of thousands of years ago.
Ten thousand years ago, Di Tian was not the strongest soul beast in the soul beast world. Above him was the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.
Unlike the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which relies on chance to eat, drink, and sleep for hundreds of years, this is a different kind of soul beast.
That Deep Sea Demon Whale King was a powerful being with a cultivation level of 990,000, just half a step away from becoming a god.
But even such a powerful figure, far surpassing Di Tian, was hunted down by Tang San, who was still at the Title Douluo level, for his soul ring.
Ice Emperor had previously thought that it was because Tang San had obtained the Sea God's inheritance and was incredibly powerful.
However, after coming into contact with Electrolux, Hyotei rejected their previous ideas.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is not someone that a Title Douluo can shake, not even a demigod!
The only way to kill it is with power that truly reaches the level of a god!
"The old Poseidon schemes against the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, while the current Sea God Tang San schemes against the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!"
"Do we, the Soul Beast race, owe the Sea God lineage something?!"
"Is it because the belief in the ocean has become unified, that he, Tang San, the Sea God, wants to further seize the position of the Land God?"
Huo Yuhao remained silent, his eyes flashing with a complex light.
Hyotei's guess is not without reason.
But the prerequisite for all of this is to figure out why Tang San schemed against him.
In other words, what is it about Huo Yuhao that Tang San is interested in?
He first ruled out the lineage of the Martial Ancestor.
In the Douluo Continent, and even in the entire God Realm and universe, there is nothing that can threaten the Martial Ancestor.
If Tang San dared to scheme against the Martial Ancestor's legacy, it would be no less than recklessly claiming to swallow the heavens.
Therefore, it means that Tang San was unaware of the existence of the Martial Ancestor's legacy.
If he had known, he wouldn't have dared to let Wang Dong come and contact him.
"It might be because of Yuhao, you are the chosen one of Douluo Continent."
Electrolux said carefully, "Do you remember my successor named Long Haochen? He is the chosen one of destiny of the Holy Demon Continent."
"Before him, the previous Chosen One of the Holy Demon Continent was me."
"Apart from that, I can't think of anything about you that Tang San would have been interested in back then."
Huo Yuhao remained silent.
He used holy light magic to simulate scenes in the Niwan Palace.
These images were all simulations he made based on his understanding of himself, simulating what choices he would make if he hadn't dreamed of the Tianxuan Continent or met the Martial Ancestor.
They followed each other, kneeling and crawling, until they arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest, where they encountered the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. They offered sacrifices, and were then attracted by the fluctuations to Ilex.
Simulating the speed of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm after its sacrifice, excluding the Body Sect, the gate of Shrek Academy clearly appeared in Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace.
"First, I will meet Tang Ya and Bei Bei. Because of my obsession with revenge for my mother, I will choose to join the Tang Clan."
"Then I will use the Tang Sect's exemption from entrance exams to join Shrek Academy."
"Wang Dong, who is disguised as a man, is very likely to become my roommate, or even my future lover."
Huo Yuhao crossed his hands, and the entire Holy Light spell exploded.
The fragments evolved into a map of Shrek Academy described by Long Aotian and Du Busi.
Huo Yuhao carefully examined each painting.
Finally, a golden tree appeared in Huo Yuhao's sight.
"The Golden Tree was personally transplanted to Shrek Academy by Tang San before his ascension."
"It's very unusual that he didn't transplant the Golden Tree to his own Tang Sect, but to Shrek Academy instead."
"Shrek Academy's motto is to cultivate monsters, which means that the Golden Tree is Tang Sect's spy to monitor all geniuses."
Huo Yuhao clasped his hands together, and the shattered holy light spell depicted a scene from the far north.
"If I hadn't inherited the Martial Ancestor's legacy, my second Martial Soul would have been the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion."
With the combination of the Spirit Eye and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, I will be the star of Shrek Academy.
"That way I will be qualified to join the Inner Court and to enter the Golden Tree."
"Once I enter the Golden Tree, it means that the Tang San chains on my body will become even heavier."
"Wang Dong, who became a couple, the influence of Shrek Academy, and the soul of his mother."
"In the end, I will become Tang San's most loyal dog, and my luck will slowly be transferred to him."
The Holy Light spell exploded again, and hundreds of images flashed by at a dazzling speed.
Huo Yuhao frowned deeply: "No, there's a lot of illogical stuff going on."
"If the gods can intervene in the mortal realm, then why would Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing allow the White Tiger royal family to decline?"
"Why would Tang San allow his Tang Sect to decline to this point?"
Electrolux shook his head: "I don't know, it doesn't make sense, we know too little about the realm of the gods."
Neither the White Tiger Royal Family nor the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School enjoyed the blessings of their ancestors.
This indeed demonstrates that deities are not allowed to interfere in the mortal realm.
However, Tang San seemed somewhat unrestrained.
Huo Yuhao's head was getting more and more throbbing.
He simply couldn't understand Tang San's logic.
And why did the trident mark between Wang Dong's eyebrows merge into her bloodline martial soul?
The current Haotian Fort lineage has long since lost any blood relation to Tang San, hasn't it?
Surely she couldn't be Tang San's descendant from the God Realm, and then Tang San sent her down to the mortal realm?
"Probably not."
Electrolux frowned: "If gods could send offspring to the mortal realm at will, the Douluo Continent would have been in complete chaos long ago."
"What if Tang San doesn't follow the rules?"
Hyotei snorted coldly: "The White Tiger Royal Family, the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile—isn't that enough proof?"
"These are four gods. How can Tang San possibly take care of them and their descendants?"
According to Bingdi, the current Soul Master world is overly focused on Tang San's title of Sea God, while ignoring that he is also the God of Asura.
According to the current classification of Douluo Continent, the Asura God is a thoroughly evil god.
"Does anyone know if the claim that the Holy Spirit Cult originated overseas is true?"
Ice Emperor made his own speculation: "When the Spirit Hall ruled the continent, there weren't this many evil spirit masters."
"Don't forget, the ocean is Tang San's base camp."
"Since he could create the Tang Sect, why can't he use the Asura God to support a Holy Spirit Cult?"
Ice Emperor speculated that the Holy Spirit Cult was supported by Tang San in order to harvest faith across the continent.
His aim was to unite the faith of the sea with his own, while the faith on the continent remained ununified.
Wang Dong might be one of his unloved descendants, whom he secretly sent down to the mortal realm to carry out dangerous missions.
As for Huo Yuhao's role, it's likely to be used to fight against evil soul masters.
"Both the angel god and the rakshasa god were killed by the sea god."
"Who knows if the position of Rakshasa God has fallen into Tang San's hands?"
"When you, Yuhao, are in the final battle with the Holy Spirit Cult, Tang San will use the position of the Rakshasa God as a cover, and then descend through you."
"In this way, he can not only devour your luck in one fell swoop, but also manifest miracles on the Douluo Continent once again."
"At that time, because he saved the continent, all the faith on the continent will belong to him."
"Since soul beasts have dual soul cores that complement each other in terms of yin and yang, who knows if gods might have dual divine positions that complement each other in terms of yin and yang?"
Hyotei's guess, though extremely bold, is not without reason.
Yin and Yang are two extremely opposing forces, whether in Douluo Continent or Tianxuan Continent.
But once they are unified, they will unleash power far exceeding anything else.
The sea god and the Asura god correspond to the two sides of yin and yang, one light and the other dark.
"etc."
Huo Yuhao suddenly raised his hand, interrupting Bingdi's words.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes: "If we follow Ice Emperor's line of thinking, then Tang San's goal is probably not just to unify the faith."
"He wanted to completely merge the divine positions of the Sea God and the Asura God to create an unprecedented divine position."
"And the fortune within me is the lubricant for the fusion of the two divine positions."
The countless clues in Huo Yuhao's mind began to connect.
"His choice to send Wang Dong to the mortal realm might not be as simple as just getting in touch with me."
The Goddess of Light Butterfly, symbolizing light.
Haotian Hammer, slaughter.
"Wang Dong was also his test subject."
"If Hyotei's guess is correct, then I must have had a Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Wang Dong back then."
"He wants to use the fusion of my martial soul and Wang Dong's to test the possibility of divine position fusion!"
"However, because the fusion of the two Soul Masters' Martial Souls is too weak, he still needs me to become a god."
"That is, Tianmeng—"
There is still one question for Huo Yuhao and his group.
That is, how exactly did Tang San discover the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm?
Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and began to recall the history of the Heaven Dou Empire and the records in the Miscellaneous Chapters of Martial Arts.
Figures related to the sea god from ten thousand years ago kept flashing through his mind.
Yu Xiaogang.
He died, and his grave was dug up more than four thousand years ago by the Sun and Moon Empire under the pretext of searching for the succession of the divine master.
Unfortunately, the Sun and Moon Empire found nothing.
It was precisely because of this action that the Sun Moon Empire thoroughly enraged Shrek Academy, forcing them, who originally did not want to get involved in the war, onto the battlefield.
Huo Yuhao kept recalling, and finally, a name appeared in his mind.
"Tang San's father, Tang Hao, has completely disappeared from history."
Huo Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes.
"If Tang San really is manipulating everything behind the scenes, then Tang Hao is very likely the key!"
Both Hyotei and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm were startled.
"You mean, Tang Hao might still be alive?"
Huo Yuhao nodded: "After Tang San became a god, Tang Hao completely disappeared. With the methods of a god, it might not be difficult for someone to live for tens of thousands of years."
"Let's make a bold guess: what if—the Golden Tree is Tang Hao?"
Tang Hao's wife is named A Yin, who was a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor who transformed into a human and gave birth to Tang San.
She must be extremely knowledgeable about the Star Dou Great Forest, and may even know about the existence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
"All the genius soul masters have flocked to Shrek Academy like a swarm of locusts crossing a river over the past ten thousand years."
"But in the past ten thousand years, the empire has never seen the corpse of the foremost genius, the master of the Sea God Pavilion."
The Tang Clan started out using hidden weapons.
For it to survive, it needs to constantly trade with the outside world, which makes it extremely unstable.
For some Soul Masters who aspire to be the strongest, the Tang Sect is clearly not the best choice.
But Shrek Academy is different; it continuously attracts talent.
Huo Yuhao guessed that perhaps all the previous leaders of the Sea God Pavilion had sacrificed themselves to Tang Hao.
In this way, Tang Hao can live for tens of thousands of years through the Golden Tree and oversee the continent for Tang San.
"No," Huo Yuhao quickly retorted, "The Ice Emperor once said that gods can revive soul beasts."
"Is it possible that the Golden Tree is actually the Blue Silver Emperor?"
His guess was far too shocking.
But upon closer examination, it makes perfect sense.
As the king of plant-type soul beasts, the Blue Silver Emperor's vitality far surpasses that of ordinary soul beasts.
If Tang San were to revive it after becoming a god and transform it into the Golden Tree, it could indeed achieve immortality for ten thousand years.
As a mother, Blue Silver Emperor will undoubtedly fully cooperate with her son's plan.
"If the Golden Tree really is the Blue Silver Emperor," Electrox pondered, "then Shrek Academy is a giant altar."
"There is more than one generation of chosen ones, and those chosen ones before you, apart from the original ancestor, seem to correspond to the masters of the Sea God Pavilion."
Three extremes.
The Dean who opposes the Sun and Moon Empire.
Moon.
Huo Yuhao's thoughts became clearer and clearer.
"The Tang Clan are ultimately our own people, so Tang San felt embarrassed to make a move."
"But Shrek Academy is full of outsiders."
"Elder Yi, what would happen if a life gathered the fortune of a great number of chosen ones?"
Huo Yuhao considered the concept of a dimensional embryo, but he wasn't sure, so he chose to seek confirmation from Electrolux.
Electrox said in a somber tone, "We can sense the dimensional will of this region."
"If the dimensional will of this region weakens, then that being will become the representative of that dimension."
Huo Yuhao clapped his hands.
"Now everything fits together!"
"Tang San used the Golden Tree as a medium to continuously transfer the fortune of each generation of chosen ones to himself!"
"Or perhaps we could use this fortune to nourish Tang Hao or the Blue Silver Emperor, allowing them to replace the will of Douluo Continent!"
"If the God Realm truly forbids gods from interfering in the mortal realm, then Tang San can use them to completely control the Douluo Continent!"
Huo Yuhao turned to look at Electrolux: "Elder Electrolux, without the Martial Ancestor's inheritance, you might encounter misfortune."
"The fact that I have met you means that I am the luckiest among these chosen ones."
"If the Douluo Continent truly has a dimensional will, then I may be its last act of resistance."
"The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm might be an opportunity given to me by the will of the plane, but it's only because Tang Hao or the Blue Silver Emperor are vying for sovereignty."
That's why Tang San was able to place a seal on Tianmeng!
"And you, as a demigod from beyond the realm, were far stronger in your lifetime than Tang San was when he became a god."
"This means that you are very likely an ally summoned from another world by the will of this plane!"
"What would have happened to you if I hadn't received the Martial Ancestor's inheritance and had instead chosen to join Shrek Academy?"
Electrolux remained silent for a long time.
Finally, his voice became more solemn than ever before: "As a demigod from another world, my power can be an aid to the will of Douluo Continent, or it can be the last straw that breaks the camel's back."
"Necromancy with the attribute of light is magic that transforms life into death and then death into life."
"If Tang San finds out about me, then I must die."
"And you must be the one to kill him, which means that the dimensional destiny within you has abandoned my help."
This inference is both startling and perfectly explains all the doubts.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was struck as if by lightning, and its entire body stiffened.
Its million-year cultivation has always been its greatest source of pride.
In the end, it turned out to be just one part of someone else's plan.
This makes it hard to accept.
"Impossible, this is impossible—"
Its white body was curled up in a ball, and its voice was filled with deep emotion.
Huo Yuhao looked at it: "Tianmeng, your fate has changed."
"If your millions of years of accumulation are a gift from the will of the Douluo plane, then aren't you also the chosen one of destiny in the far north?"
"I've heard of legends about auspicious beasts in the world of soul beasts. If you hadn't been tricked by Tang Hao or the Blue Silver Emperor, wouldn't you and Xue Di be like Di Tian and the auspicious beast of the far north?"
"And don't the Ice Emperor, Titan Snow Demon King, and Ice Bear King also correspond to Bear King, King of Ten Thousand Demons, and Red King?"
"And that snow lotus is the Jade Princess of the far north."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm slowly raised its head, and a hint of enlightenment flashed in its golden eyes.
"So, my million years of cultivation were originally a mission bestowed upon me by the will of this plane?"
"Is the Ice Empire's pursuit of me a test from the will of the far north, or from the will of a different plane?"
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly.
"The far north should have its own protective system," Tianmeng Ice Silkworm murmured to herself. "The Snow Emperor should be the auspicious beast of the far north, and I should be the Emperor of the far north."
.
"Why is it that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King of the ocean, and Di Tian of the Star Dou Great Forest, are missing an all-powerful force in the far north?"
"Even if the Snow Empress is powerful, she shouldn't only have such combat strength in the far north."
"If there is an auspicious beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, it corresponds to the Snow Empress and governs the inner realm."
"And my spiritual power is primarily external."
"But Tang San ruined all of this—"
"My fate shouldn't be to become provisions for the Star Dou Great Forest—"
"No, it's not just because of Tang San, it also includes my personality; I'm too cowardly."
All the memories of these past years flashed through Tianmeng Bingcan's mind.
Why did the Snow Empress, who was favored by the ice element, fail to discover the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave?
"Brother Hao—"
Tianmeng Bingcan's voice trembled, her eyes filled with unprecedented rage: "I want revenge!"
Its voice, as tender as a child's, was filled for the first time with the majesty befitting a million-year-old soul beast.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm no longer curled up, but stood upright like a dragon: "I will make Tang San pay the price for his scheming against the far north!"
"I want to transform into an undead creature!"
Hyotei's pupils contracted sharply: "Tenmu, have you gone mad?!"
A resolute light shone in Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's golden eyes: "Brother Hao, Ice Emperor, Elder Yi."
"I, Tianmeng, possess a million years of cultivation, yet I have always lived in a daze, unknowingly being schemed against."
Now that I know the truth, how can I continue to be a worm that can be slaughtered at will!
It raised its head, its voice strong and clear: "I will be reborn as a dead soul!"
1
"Since I have already sacrificed myself, I can be considered dead in a sense, and it is fitting that I transform into an undead creature!"
Hyotei stood to the side, a complex look flashing in their eyes.
She never imagined that this million-year-old soul beast, which she considered trash, would have such a resolute side.
Huo Yuhao looked at Electrolux.
Electrolux nodded slightly.
Then Huo Yuhao pointed his fingers like a sword at the center of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's brow, where the rune representing soul magic flashed intensely.
"You have broken free from your chains; your future is up to you."
"The ritual for converting the dead shall begin."
At the same time, Electrolux's palm gently covered Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's forehead.
"In the name of light, I grant you new life."
"In the name of the dead, I grant you eternal power."
Boom!
The body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly disintegrated at this moment!
Countless golden points of light were covered by the spiritual power of its origin!
Huo Yuhao and Electrolux seized the opportunity to open the undead demiplane and sent the transforming Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm inside.
Watching the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm constantly shatter and reform, Huo Yuhao took out the Heavenly Scale Ancient Halberd and cut his palm.
"The Ice Silkworm's essence is ultimately too weak."
"With my blood, I will help you be reborn!"
Huo Yuhao's blood splattered onto the ever-evolving body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, instantly igniting a dazzling light.
Electrolux's necromancy intertwined with Huo Yuhao's blood, forming a mysterious and profound magic circle around the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
"Tianmeng, remember how this moment feels."
The dragon-like nature in Huo Yuhao's blood began to take effect.
"From this moment on, you will no longer be a soul beast at the mercy of others, but a necromantic lord who controls his own destiny."
"You are a spirit worm, a spirit dragon, and the dragon lord of the dead."
"The moment you complete your transformation, you will possess true power."
The body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm began to twist, shatter, and reassemble continuously within the magic circle.
Its original white jade-colored body gradually transformed into an ethereal color.
Huo Yuhao watched the ever-evolving Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and said to Ilex, "Elder Ilex, let's go."
"The rest of the process is up to Tianmeng to get through on her own."
"There are still 'guests' from Haotian Fortress waiting for me in my Azure Dragon Mansion."
