"But that's impossible!"
Before Su Chen could answer, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm shook her head like a rattle-drum, "You're only level 20, how could you possibly survive those two monsters?!"
"No, no, no, impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Tianmeng seemed to have convinced itself. It forced a smile and pretended to be calm, saying, "Young man, I admit you are indeed very powerful, but you know this kind of thing, right? Even a Title Douluo can't do it."
Its words abruptly stopped.
A deliberately suppressed fluctuation of soul power quietly emanated, and a pale white energy brushed against her face. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm instinctively felt a sense of comfort throughout her body, as if the fatigue and depression of the past few days had been greatly relieved.
But Tianmeng Ice Silkworm couldn't care less about this mesmerizing feeling at the moment. Its golden beady eyes shrank to the size of pinpoints as it stared intently at the silver-haired boy in front of it.
Or rather, the spirit ring on his body that emitted a purple light.
"The first spirit ring in a thousand years?"
At this moment, the silkworm's worldview was greatly impacted.
The only one of its kind in a thousand years!
He didn't even have a second spirit ring.
But how is that possible?
Tianmeng's lips trembled. It wanted to continue saying it was impossible, but the undeniable facts were right in front of it, and no matter how absurd, it had no choice but to believe them.
However, it soon realized that its worldview had shattered far too early.
In the next two minutes, the silver-haired boy fully demonstrated what a monster truly is.
Despite concentrating her mind to the maximum extent, Tianmeng was unable to distinguish between the dozens of clones that were indistinguishable from the original body.
No matter how you investigate, its soul power fluctuations and life level are completely consistent.
And that strange ability to turn into a little rabbit, the silver-haired boy also transformed into things like blue silver grass and flowers.
When he transforms into the corresponding form, his aura also changes.
It was as if it were a rabbit and a wooden stake.
If you don't look closely, you won't be able to detect that subtle difference.
But who would notice a Blue Silver Grass that grows everywhere in the Star Dou Great Forest?
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was completely paralyzed when the boy transformed into a round, chubby silkworm.
It was acutely aware of the terrifying nature of this ability.
Unless one possesses extremely powerful sensory abilities, or an ability similar to the boy's ability to see through objects, this ability to transform is practically unsolvable!
Tianmeng finally understood why the silver-haired boy in front of her was able to escape from the pursuit of the two monsters.
Because he himself is a monster even more perverted than them.
"Big brother!!"
Without hesitation, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lowered its stance.
It called him "Big Brother" with complete sincerity and respect.
My savior isn't a Title Douluo, but his future achievements will definitely go far beyond that!
Becoming a god
For the first time, Tianmeng Bingcan felt that this distant word was so close to her.
If even a monster like Big Brother can't become a god, then probably no one in this world can.
"Get up, you don't need to do that."
Su Chen reached out and helped Tianmeng up, patted its head, and nodded in satisfaction.
At this moment, Tianmeng clearly had not yet developed the self-serving and somewhat cunning character that she would have ten thousand years later.
There is even a touch of naivety and innocent foolishness in their curiosity about everything.
Having demonstrated sufficient qualities and having been saved by a debt of gratitude, it completely won over the heart.
If it were 10,000 years from now, it probably wouldn't be so easy.
At that time, some coercion, bribery, or other means will be inevitable.
Forbidden ninjutsu such as the Tongue Root Calamity Technique.
Of course, if possible, Su Chen did not want to use coercive means on this intelligent life form that he lived with day and night, as that would only sow the seeds of future trouble.
While it is possible to completely control it, can such a spirit ring still be called an intelligent spirit ring?
The current situation is naturally the best possible one.
"Brother, I would be very willing to make a sacrifice, but my ability to conceal my mind will be lost during the process, so it would be best if..."
After the initial joy subsided, Tianmeng Bingcan's chubby face turned somewhat serious.
It looked at Su Chen seriously, "Moreover, because my soul power is mixed in, your amazing transformation ability will probably be exposed in a short time, big brother."
Now that we've decided to follow Su Chen, we need to consider how to break this deadlock.
In Tianmeng's opinion, the best course of action now is to stay hidden here and not make any rash moves.
Given enough time, those two guys will naturally go back.
Having been a rare and precious treasure in this ominous place for so long, it had some knowledge of its secrets.
Unexpectedly, the boy shook his head and refused.
"No, we need to get out of here as soon as possible."
Before deciding to absorb the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, hiding is definitely the best option, but if it is to be taken as a soul ring, then this method will not work.
No matter what, the Silkworm of Linwu is just a thousand-year-old soul beast. The fact that Xiong Jun and Chi Wang are chasing after him is simply a matter of face.
But the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is different. Its importance to the Great Ferocious Land is not on the same level as that of the Linwu Silkworm. Unless it can stay in this place for hundreds or thousands of years like the Heavenly Dream, the ferocious beasts will definitely not let it go.
At that point, even the Spirit Hall had no choice but to give up on him.
Even if we take him out, how can he absorb the knowledge in a logical and reasonable way?
Even a Douluo like Qian Daoliu, who has already broken through his limits, would probably be tempted by a soul beast that is nearly a million years old.
If even the slightest flaw is revealed, everything the Spirit Hall has built will collapse, and Su Xiao will also be implicated.
Therefore, resolving the problem here is the best option.
"Tianmeng, I will not force you to come with me. If you are unwilling, I will leave on my own once my soul power recovers."
Su Chen pondered for a moment, looked at those small, golden eyes, and said earnestly.
"You are safe here."
Tianmeng Bingcan remained silent upon hearing this.
It knew, of course, that it was safe here. As long as it didn't go out, unless the ferocious beasts turned the entire forest upside down, it wouldn't find itself even after thousands or tens of thousands of years.
But after witnessing humans who truly possess the potential to become gods, how could it be willing to live in this narrow cave for thousands of years?!
What about 10,000 years from now?
Should we continue waiting?
Is lying dead or being forced to lie dead the only option in my life?
No!
It was unwilling to accept this!
If that's the case, why not take a gamble?
Even if I lose the bet, it's my own fault.
Ugh, after obtaining a spirit ring, it seems like losing a bet really means death!
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm felt an instinctive sense of fear.
It shrank back two steps, but then stopped.
A moment later, the ice silkworm met the boy's gaze.
"Brother Hu, can you tell me your name?"
"Yes, my name is Su Chen."
"Hello, Brother Su Chen, I am Tianmeng."
It took a deep breath, and its body suddenly became somewhat ethereal. A vast and terrifying surge of soul power slowly rose, transforming into a dazzling stream of light like a galaxy, which rushed towards the boy.
"Brother Su Chen, hurry up."
"I'm afraid I'll regret it."
