Huo Yuhao stopped retreating and instead watched the soul beast in the bushes warily, remaining motionless. The soul beast also pricked up its ears, its pink eyes fixed on Huo Yuhao without blinking.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past the bushes where the long-eared spirit beast was. The long-eared spirit beast leaped out and charged at the dark shadow.
In an instant, the dark figure collapsed to the ground, motionless. Huo Yuhao caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye and realized it was a ten-year-old wind baboon. The appearance of the long-eared soul beast was also revealed to Huo Yuhao.
With its long ears, pinkish-white fur, and pink eyes, this rabbit is clearly a Soft-Boned Enchanting Rabbit, a spirit beast that is at least seven or eight hundred years old.
Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew something about the Soft-Boned Rabbit spirit beast. It wasn't just because of Xiao Wu, the 100,000-year-old rabbit from Douluo Continent I. It was also related to a girl who possessed the Soft-Boned Rabbit spirit, and that girl was Jiang Nannan.
While Huo Yuhao was searching for a cure for his mother across the mainland, he encountered her; she was also looking for someone to treat her mother's illness.
Huo Yuhao visited renowned doctors he could find throughout the land. He naturally knew where the truly skilled doctors were, so he took Jiang Nannan and her mother there. The doctor cured the girl's mother's illness. Afterwards, to repay him, Jiang Nannan protected him for a period of time, thus Huo Yuhao became familiar with the habits of the Soft Bone Charming Rabbit, a type of soul beast.
As a herbivore, the Soft-Boned Rabbit, a type of spirit beast, generally doesn't attack unless provoked. If it weren't for the Wind Baboon's attack, this hundred-year-old Soft-Boned Rabbit would probably have kept its eyes on Huo Yuhao until he left.
Fortunately, the appearance of the wind baboon confirmed to Huo Yuhao that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was nearby.
Huo Yuhao slowly moved away from the hundred-year-old Soft-Boned Rabbit. He felt it was better to stay away from it; although the Soft-Boned Rabbit was a vegetarian, it had killed the Godslayer Wind Baboon with a single kick.
Huo Yuhao dared not turn his back to the other person, and could only retreat step by step. Suddenly, the rabbit's pink eyes lit up—
Bewitching! One of the skills of the Soft-Boned Rabbit.
Huo Yuhao instantly recognized the opponent's skill, but the moment he saw those glowing eyes, he was already caught off guard.
Huo Yuhao was momentarily dazed, as if he could see Tang Ya, whom he had just met, walking towards him with a charming smile.
Fortunately, his martial soul was the Spirit Eye, and he quickly broke free from the charm's control. However, the hundred-year-old Soft Bone Charming Rabbit was even faster. When Huo Yuhao regained his senses, the rabbit was already within reach. With just one push, he would die on the spot like that wind baboon.

Chapter 4-Awakening
Danger!
Huo Yuhao's mind was filled with alarm bells.
In that split second between life and death, Huo Yuhao's soul power surged at an alarming rate, and his spiritual eyes gained even greater clarity. In his vision, the movements of the Soft-Boned Rabbit slowed down in that instant. Huo Yuhao stared intently at the Soft-Boned Rabbit's movements; its speed was too great, so he could only remain still to counter its attacks.
The Soft Bone Rabbit pushed off with its hind legs, leaping into the air. As it approached Huo Yuhao, it used the momentum to twist its waist and kick Huo Yuhao with even greater force.
The moment the rabbit charged at him, Huo Yuhao knew something was wrong. He remembered Xiao Wu's soul skill, Waist Bow, which allowed her to use her strength in mid-air. Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao did a somersault and narrowly avoided the rabbit's kicking feet.
Just as Huo Yuhao was about to launch a counterattack, a golden-white light spread out from the ground, and the Soft Bone Rabbit immediately froze. Without warning, a voice rang in Huo Yuhao's mind.
"Finally, I met a human being with spiritual attributes. It's a pity that I don't know how to shed tears, otherwise I would have burst into tears!"
It's a dream!
Huo Yuhao immediately realized that one of his cheat codes—the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm—had finally arrived!
As the sound rang out, the ground in front of Huo Yuhao suddenly trembled and cracks began to appear. The cracks gradually widened, and a creature that looked like a silkworm but was a full seven meters long leaped out of the cracks.
Huo Yuhao gripped the White Tiger Dagger tightly, his heart pounding with excitement, and looked Tianmeng Ice Silkworm up and down.
It was plump all over, with a round head and a translucent white jade-like body. A halo flowed beneath its skin, and there was even a pair of small, glittering golden eyes on its head. Most remarkably, starting from half a meter from its head, there was a golden ring at regular intervals, totaling ten golden rings from head to tail.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Brother won't hurt you." The previous voice rang in Huo Yuhao's mind once again. The giant silkworm nodded to him, its huge head lowered, and it stopped a meter away from Huo Yuhao. A faint fragrance even emanated from its body.
"Who are you?" Huo Yuhao suppressed his excitement and looked at the giant ice silkworm warily.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said smugly, "Let me introduce myself first. I am the embodiment of heroism and chivalry, the king of soul beasts who possesses both wisdom and beauty, an unparalleled powerhouse, and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm who has cultivated for a million years, setting the record for the longest lifespan in the Douluo Continent. Um, you can call me Brother Tianmeng!"
"Don't be afraid of me. I'm the one who just knocked out that Soft Bone Rabbit and saved you from danger. You don't need to thank me; I've already decided to repay you with my body. Aren't you surprised? Aren't you excited?"
Even though Huo Yuhao was somewhat prepared for Tianmeng's eccentricities, the words "offering herself in return" almost made him lose his composure.
"W-what are you going to do? Even if you save me, I could never like you," Huo Yuhao stammered.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said impatiently, "It's alright, it's alright. Once I enter your body, you'll like me."
"I'm going to become your spirit ring, the first intelligent spirit ring in the history of Douluo Continent. How about that? Aren't you excited?"
"You want to become my spirit ring?" Huo Yuhao asked, somewhat stunned, as if he were overwhelmed by such immense joy.
The enormous head of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm glanced warily toward the Star Dou Great Forest, then turned back to Huo Yuhao and said, "I'm about to begin. Don't worry, I'll be gentle and won't hurt you too much. Don't move around, okay? I'll do it myself."
Huo Yuhao felt another car wheel roll across his face. He wondered where the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, who had slept for millions of years, had learned such superb driving skills. Could it have come from those ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest? Or perhaps from Di Tian?
I never imagined you were like this, Di Tian!
Before Huo Yuhao could respond, the enormous head of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm pressed against him, and then he lost consciousness.
As the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm pressed its head against Huo Yuhao's forehead, the ten golden rings on its body seemed to come alive, pulsating up and down and quickly enveloping Huo Yuhao's thin body. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm itself transformed into streams of white light that continuously surged into Huo Yuhao's body.
"Too weak, too weak. This is too tragic. Waaah, I'm so pitiful! How many seals do I need to add to myself to prevent his weak body from being broken? Why can he only hold so little power?! This Wisdom Soul Ring is really not easy to be."
An invisible spiritual fluctuation spread outwards from the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm as it surged into Huo Yuhao's body.
Bei Bei and Tang Ya, who were speeding up to catch up with Huo Yuhao, were momentarily stunned and motionless when they were enveloped by this mental fluctuation.
At this moment, most of the southern part of the Star Dou Great Forest was eerily quiet.
Just then, a thunderclap boomed in the sky, and the sky suddenly darkened.
Accompanied by the sound, a gray stream of air descended from the sky as if it had encountered a huge suction force, and in just an instant, it landed on the back of Huo Yuhao's head.
"What dares to try and steal someone from me?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm roared in fury, unleashing a massive surge of mental energy in an attempt to expel the gray aura from Huo Yuhao's body.
A very blurry figure emerged behind Huo Yuhao, and an aged voice rang out with an indescribable majesty, "Holding the sun and moon in my hands and plucking stars from the sky, there is no one like me in this world. I never thought that I would still have a trace of my remnant soul left."
Faced with the immense mental power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the blurry, illusory figure seemed completely unaffected, and the gray aura instantly forced back the Heavenly Dream's immense mental power.
With a "whoosh," the gray figure disappeared into the back of Huo Yuhao's head.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm discovered that the gray figure had transformed into a gray bead, floating in Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness. Although furious that this gray bead was trying to steal him away, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who was struggling to control its spiritual essence, dared not make any rash moves at this moment. It could only slowly inject its million years of spiritual power into Huo Yuhao's body.
He had no way out; the moment he injected his power into Huo Yuhao's body, it was irreversible.
"Ugh, why am I so unlucky? I finally found someone with a spiritual attribute, but some bastard is trying to steal him from me. It's like the heavens are jealous of talent!" Tianmeng kept complaining.
At the same time, the white dot that had been motionless in Huo Yuhao's mind was activated after the gray light ball entered Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness.
The white light emitted a hazy white glow, gradually eroding the gray bead. The gray bead seemed to sense the threat and tried to resist the white light's erosion, but to no avail. It could only watch helplessly as its essence was absorbed by the white light bit by bit.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm quickly noticed the clash between the white light and the gray air currents in the sky. Seeing the gray air currents being pushed back by the white light, it couldn't help but feel a little smug. "Serves you right for trying to steal my territory! Give that gray bead a good beating and make it try to steal my people!"
After happily eating melon and watching the show for a while, Tianmeng couldn't help but mutter to herself, "This kid is really strange. With my spiritual sea and my current power, we already have three forces. The essence of the gray bead's power seems to be much higher than my millions of years of spiritual power, yet that white light can beat it without any resistance. After that white light absorbs the gray bead, will it come after me again?"
As soon as Tianmeng finished muttering to himself, he saw a stream of white energy split off and shoot towards him. Tianmeng quickly and solemnly gathered his mental energy to defend against it.
At this moment, Tianmeng wished she could slap herself. Why did she have such a jinx!
The white light ignored Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's defense and instantly merged into the sealing light cluster of Tianmeng's spiritual origin, causing the nine layers of seals constructed by Tianmeng to rapidly dissolve.
Tianmeng Bingcan's expression changed drastically, and he said urgently, "No, this kid is too weak. If you break the seal on my million-year-old spiritual energy source, it will burst him, and then we will all be finished!"
I originally wanted to kill off Tianmeng and Ilex. The thought of someone in my mind seeing everything about me made me feel uneasy. But considering that Tianmeng and Ilex provided the protagonist with power-ups and warmth, they couldn't just die like that. So I'll let them sleep, and when the protagonist gains the ability to revive them later, they can wake up and work for him.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 5 Changes
Tianmeng couldn't afford to be complacent. Before meeting Huo Yuhao, it had tried to merge with another Title Douluo, but that Title Douluo was overwhelmed and exploded during the fusion process. Tianmeng was forced to develop a method to seal its own spiritual essence. Now that it had merged with Huo Yuhao, if Huo Yuhao died, it would die too!
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm tried its best to control its spiritual origin, but to no avail, as if it were not its spiritual origin but that of the white light.
As the seal was broken, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm unleashed its immense spiritual power. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm collapsed to the ground, dejectedly saying, "It's over, it's all over. I'm so unlucky! I finally escaped the imprisonment of those ferocious beasts, but I didn't expect to die so soon."
Bai Guang had no time to pay attention to the despairing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Instead, it controlled the spiritual power of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and surged onto the battlefield in the sky.
With the addition of Tianmeng's spiritual power, the gray bead's essence dissipated even faster, and it was soon swallowed up by the white light, leaving only a sigh of vicissitude.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm also witnessed this scene, its eyes filled with blankness and shock.
Why is his mental power so strong in someone else's hands? You know, just now he was trying to control his mental power to deal with that gray bead, but he was immediately forced back by the gray energy flow. But under the control of this white light, his mental power quickly dealt with the gray bead.
Is this his spiritual power or the spiritual power of that white light?
Tianmeng never imagined that she would be nailed to the pillar of shame before her death.
After engulfing the gray bead, the white light seemed unsatisfied. It manipulated the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual power, knocking the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to the ground. The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm wanted to regain control of its own spiritual power, but its spiritual power ignored it.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm collapsed, lying on the ground and yelling, "I don't want to live anymore! Why can others control my mental power to beat me up? This is worse than death! That's my mental power, which I've painstakingly cultivated for millions of years! It's mine!"
The white light continued to manipulate the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year-old spiritual power, quickly suppressing it and then swallowing it into the white light, whereupon it disappeared.
The spiritual essence left behind by Tianmeng was also being continuously absorbed by the white light. When the white light had absorbed about a quarter of the amount, it stopped.
The white light compressed the remaining vast spiritual essence into a ball of light, which was then covered by a white membrane, completely enveloping it.
The white light membrane was not completely impermeable. After being filtered by the light membrane, Tianmeng's spiritual essence seeped out in strands, nourishing Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
After processing everything, the white light contracted and returned to its initial point of light. The white point of light slowly absorbed the energy within the white light. Simultaneously, it released halos of gray, white, and gold light that spread into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness. These halos then emanated from the sea of consciousness, permeating every part of Huo Yuhao's body. The halos nourished Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness and body, slowly being absorbed by him.
Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul, the Spirit Eye, absorbed the most energy. Meanwhile, the Sea of Spirit, nourished by the halo, had grown from a small puddle into a vast lake, its spiritual energy radiating a faint golden light.
Huo Yuhao himself is undergoing tremendous changes, but his consciousness is asleep and he is completely unaware of the situation.
The white light quickly absorbed everything within the white light, then it spat out two figures: a gray, illusory figure and a large, fleshy worm. These were Electrolux and the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
The white light transported the two slumbering beings into Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness before retracting its point of light. The world fell silent.
