Douluo: The Unrivaled Demon Lord

Chapter 93 The Beginning of Fate⑧
After saying this, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm glanced warily in the direction of the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest before turning back to Shu Yan and saying:

"I'm about to start, don't worry, I'll be gentle when I go in, it won't hurt you too much..."

Without waiting for Shu Yan's reply, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lowered her head and pressed her forehead against Shu Yan's.

Shu Yan felt an extremely cold aura rush towards him, and all his thoughts seemed to freeze in an instant. Shu Yan groaned involuntarily, but because of his strong mental strength, his consciousness slowly returned after a short while.

At this moment, the ten golden halos on the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to come alive, rhythmically pulsating. The ten halos quickly enveloped Shu Yan's body in turn, while the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm itself transformed into streams of white light that continuously surged into Shu Yan's body.

"Holy crap, a top-tier mutated True Dragon Martial Soul, unimaginably powerful physical attributes, and even spiritual power at the tangible yet intangible level—is this really something a human your age could achieve? Damn it, God, you've finally taken pity on me this time, allowing me to encounter such a peerless human in the final moments of my life. It seems my fate is not to end here..."

Just as Tianmeng Bingcan was about to burst into tears of excitement, a sinister voice suddenly rang out:
"Little bug, are you planning to take my territory?"

Upon hearing this, Tianmeng Bingcan, who was originally excited and unable to contain her emotions, suddenly froze on the spot in a strange way.

It slowly turned its head and saw that the mental space behind it had turned into a dark green color at some point, with countless crisscrossing spider webs intertwined together. In the very center of all the spider webs, a huge spider, at least three times the size of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, was slowly crawling towards it, and the sinister voice was coming from it.

"Holy crap, where did such a huge spider come from...?"

"Dude, I'm terrified of spiders. Where the hell did you crawl out from?"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm shuddered, then trembled and wailed.

As Xie Ji closed in step by step, the newly entered Shu Yantian Mengbingcan was gradually driven to its death. Seeing the sharp spider legs so close at hand, Tianmeng Bingcan almost fainted on the spot.

"Don't be afraid~ I'm a friendly soul beast, I never devour the souls of other soul beasts..."

The Evil Queen's voice gradually became clearer. A bloodthirsty red light flashed in her eyes, and her enormous Soul-Devouring Spider Queen form slowly disappeared, replaced by her near-perfect human form.

Just as the weak, pitiful, and helpless Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was about to suffer a fatal blow, Shu Yan's voice, tinged with a hint of helplessness, came:

"Evil Princess, that's enough..."

Xie Ji's dark green fingertips trembled slightly, and then she let out a soft hum, but still showed no intention of disobeying Shu Yan.

She had tried to go against Shu Yan before, but the consequences were not good for her.

She glanced one last time at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, slowly retracting her outstretched arm, and then said with a hint of disdain:
"Tsk, how can you be so timid? I just wanted to scare you, look at the pathetic state you're in..."

After spending some time together, Xie Ji had completely figured out Shu Yan's personality and style of doing things. If she went against Shu Yan now, she would be the one to suffer later.

Upon seeing Shu Yan appear, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who had been cowering in the corner, lit up as if it had seen a savior, and then quickly hid behind Shu Yan.

The Evil Princess smiled and waved her hand, and the mental space behind her quickly returned to its original state.

"You must be the Ice Silkworm that was left in the Great Perilous Land by the Beast God and the others. Tsk tsk, a million years of cultivation. I must say, you are indeed a treasure from head to toe. Even though you were exploited by those guys for ten thousand years, the remaining primordial energy is still so vast that it moves me."

As they spoke, beams of golden light suddenly pierced through from the outside and then condensed into ten enormous golden halos in Shu Yan's sea of ​​consciousness.

Just as Shu Yan was about to say something more, the sky, which had been perfectly clear a moment before, suddenly darkened. A thunderous roar resounded high in the sky, and in an instant, the sunlight was completely obscured by darkness. An immense, suffocating pressure descended from the heavens.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Xie Ji raised their heads in shock almost simultaneously. Despite their advanced mental abilities, they both felt a terrifying mental pressure within that oppressive aura, completely beyond their comprehension. At that moment, most of the southern part of the Star Dou Great Forest seemed to fall into an eternal, deathly silence.

A gray stream of air, as if encountering a tremendous suction force, rapidly descended from the sky and, in an instant, silently entered Shu Yan's head from the back.

"What dares to steal my brother's man!"

Xie Ji and Tian Meng spoke almost simultaneously. The next moment, they mobilized a terrifying mental fluctuation, attempting to expel the gray aura from Shu Yan's sea of ​​consciousness.

The two were moving so fast that even Shu Yan couldn't react in time.

But after realizing what had happened, Shu Yan just smiled helplessly and let the two of them go.

As expected, the terrifying mental fluctuations of the two did not have the slightest effect on the gray aura.

The next moment, a very blurry figure appeared behind Shu Yan, and an aged voice carried an indescribable majesty:

"Holding the sun, moon and stars in my hand, there is no one like me in the world. I never thought that I could still have a trace of my soul left."

After saying that, the figure directly merged into Shu Yan's spiritual sea.

"Alright, everyone stop."

Shu Yan spoke softly, looking at the gray bead, no bigger than a soybean, hovering above the Sea of ​​Life. He then smiled gently, raised his hand slightly, and a surge of powerful life energy rose up, nurturing the gray bead within it.

The gray bead trembled slightly, as if a faint spiritual fluctuation emanated from it. Xie Ji and Tian Meng were both startled, but Shu Yan's smile deepened.

"Do you know what this bead is?"

Xie Ji turned to look at Shu Yan, then asked with some curiosity.

"Ah."

Shu Yan nodded, then spoke:
"This is a wisp of the divine consciousness of a powerful being from another world. You two must have already sensed how high his spiritual level is."

"But you don't need to worry, he has no ill intentions. On the contrary, he will be one of my greatest helpers in the future."

Astonishment flashed in Xie Ji's eyes. She stared at the gray bead for a long time, then chuckled softly.

"I see... Well then I'm a little curious, how did you know its origin?"

Shu Yan did not answer Xie Ji, but turned to look at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. He could already sense that the fusion between Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and him was about to be completely completed.

"Do you regret it? You just escaped one wolf's mouth, only to walk right into another tiger's den..."

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was clearly still reeling from the shock. It wasn't until Xie Ji snorted that it snapped back to reality. After a moment's thought, it solemnly declared:
"Judging by my astonishing wisdom accumulated over a million years of cultivation, my choice was not wrong. However... before that, you need to let me calm down first. Too much has happened today, and my thoughts are in turmoil..."
