Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 25 Which gang are you from?

"Anyway, that's the gist of it. Kid, you're lucky I chose you!"

As if confirming Huo Yuhao's thoughts, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm explained much faster this time compared to his previous life, so much so that he didn't notice the somewhat abnormal reaction of the boy in front of him.

"Time is of the essence, I'm about to start. Don't worry, I'll be gentle and won't hurt you."

"?"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. He hadn't expected Tianmeng Ice Silkworm to be so impatient, and he instinctively wanted to say something.

"Wait, wait a minute."

However, before he could finish speaking, he saw that huge head crashing into him.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm thought Huo Yuhao was scared. He was already terrified by the terrifying aura from before, so he didn't care about anything else and just wanted to escape this nightmare-filled place as soon as possible.

At the critical moment, Huo Yuhao's Eye of Destiny on his forehead suddenly opened, and an indescribable aura swept out. Although this aura did not seem powerful to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, it still made him tremble subconsciously, and his forward movement came to an abrupt halt.

"What, what is this thing?"

"Brother Tianmeng, please let me finish."

Ignoring Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's shock, Huo Yuhao quickly went over the Soul Spirit Contract in his mind. Since he would become a Soul Spirit anyway, he might as well go all the way this time.

After listening, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finally calmed down and blinked its little golden eyes twice.

"Soul Contract? There's such a good thing? How come I've never heard of it before?"

"Because it comes from the future, from the hands of my teacher."

".?"

What are you talking about?

Why do I feel like I don't quite understand?

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt as if her cerebellum had shrunk, and she was at a loss for what to do.

To be honest, he didn't really trust the contract.

Judging from Huo Yuhao's description of the effects, being a spirit is indeed better than being an intelligent spirit ring, since one can occasionally come out of the spiritual space to get some fresh air.

However, the effect of this thing is entirely based on Huo Yuhao's words. Whether it actually works or not, no one knows. But judging from what this human has shown, he is clearly not an ordinary person, so the credibility of this statement is quite high.

As for whether the other party was lying to him, Tianmeng Bingcan did not consider this possibility at all. He was in a hurry to become the other party's soul ring, so why would the other party go to the trouble of making up a lie to deceive him?

Totally unnecessary.

Moreover, for some reason, from the moment he saw this human, he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness. This feeling puzzled him, and even though he was aware that this was abnormal, he just couldn't feel the slightest bit of wariness towards this human.

Is this what they call fate?

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm blinked twice more, staring at Huo Yuhao's calm eyes. After a moment, it finally made up its mind, and its voice rang in Huo Yuhao's mind again.

"I'll do as you say, perform the soul ritual, how should I do it, brother?"

"Just like the wisdom soul ring you planned, Brother Tianmeng, all you need to do is seal the power. Oh, right, you also need to relax your mind."

Although the process is somewhat similar to a sacrifice, a normal soul ritual still requires the host to reach a sufficient lifespan. Therefore, if Tianmeng wants to complete the soul ritual with the million-year-old Tianmeng, he naturally needs to use the sealing method that he has researched over many years.

"Okay, hurry up, hurry up, or that guy might notice me."

That guy?

Huo Yuhao had some inexplicable doubts, but he didn't rush to ask. After both sides were ready, the ceremony quickly began.

Huo Yuhao raised his hand and placed it on the head of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and began to chant a spell. A golden six-pointed star magic circle completely enveloped the man and the silkworm.

As soon as the magic circle appeared, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm understood what Huo Yuhao meant by "shared understanding." Through this ritual, it could even clearly sense Huo Yuhao's emotions.

Calm, gentle, without the slightest malice.

After further sensing Huo Yuhao's condition, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's two golden eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.

"Such strong physical and mental abilities! I've really struck gold this time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ten golden rings on his body began to pulsate like waves. The massive spiritual energy fluctuations instantly covered the entire Star Dou Great Forest. His crazy actions left all the creatures in the Star Dou Great Forest stunned.

Immediately afterwards, his enormous body melted and shrank as if it had encountered fire, and even the color of his body faded rapidly.

Just then, the once clear sky suddenly darkened, and after a muffled thunderous explosion, a gray cloud of energy pierced through space and appeared out of thin air, entering Huo Yuhao's forehead. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who had been delighted, immediately changed his expression.

"Hey, hey, hey, I saw her first. What gang are you from? You're trying to steal her without even knowing who I am?"

However, the gray aura seemed to fall silent after entering Huo Yuhao's body, offering no response. Seeing this, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm could only purse its lips and reluctantly accelerate the fusion process.

"If I weren't in a hurry, huh!"

The moment his mind entered Huo Yuhao's mental space, the scene that appeared before him sent a chill down his spine.

"My goodness, this is so lively! What kind of host did you choose, bro?"

In the not-so-large mental space, mental energy, like a small pond, rippled slightly. Above this, eight orbs of light floated quietly. One of them was far away from the other seven. Judging from the gray mist constantly churning around it, it was clearly the gray gas cloud that he had just seen competing with him for the host.

Now, with the addition of the ten sealed primordial powers he brought in, eighteen orbs of light appeared in the mental space, making it feel somewhat crowded.

Apart from the gray cloud, the other seven orbs of light were not much different, except for their color and the aura they emitted. The dark blue and dark yellow orbs were the most conspicuous, while the other five orbs, although they also had some color, were still mostly covered by gray.

After carefully sensing it, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was surprised to find that it was also some kind of primordial power. As long as his spiritual body got close, it would be affected by the corresponding emotions in his heart. Frightened, he immediately moved far away from the seven light orbs, just like the gray cloud.

Fortunately, these seven orbs of light did not have self-awareness; they simply floated quietly in the mental space without making any noise.

However, this was not the most shocking thing for him. When he looked up, he saw the golden vertical eye that Huo Yuhao had just displayed again. Feeling the aura of the Eye of Destiny at such close range, he finally understood what it was.

"This, this is... a divine artifact!?"
