Ice Silkworm, Ice Jade Scorpion

Chapter 69 Ice Silkworm, Ice Jade Scorpion

"Wow, what kind of spirit beasts are these?!"

Oscar looked at the pile of maggot-like soul beasts in front of him and felt utterly hopeless.

"Master, I'm afraid I'll have to outlive you, even though I'm a black-haired person. Don't worry about me, and I have no regrets about becoming your disciple."

At that moment, Oscar resignedly closed his eyes, silently giving his last words.

Those ice silkworms that resemble maggots, no, to be precise, are maggot-like.

They merely glanced at Oscar, the outsider, and, finding him to be no threat, continued to nonchalantly enjoy the strange food before them.

With his eyes closed, Oscar could only hear the rustling sounds of chewing, but he himself was completely unharmed.

After waiting a while longer, he muttered to himself, "Aren't they interested in me? Why aren't they coming to eat me?"

Actually, it's no wonder that Oscar would have this idea.

After all, in the Frozen Forest, once those soul beasts encounter humans, they chase after them relentlessly, just like hungry wolves seeing their prey.

Oscar felt like each day was an eternity, and finally, unable to contain himself any longer, he opened his eyes.

However, what came into view was the ice silkworms enjoying an indescribable meal with great relish, completely ignoring his presence.

Oscar immediately felt insulted.

"What... what kind of spirit beast is this? Why isn't it eating me?!"

Just as he was sighing, a dark figure quietly appeared behind him, silently looking down at him.

Oscar breathed a sigh of relief, and for some reason, he even spoke with a hint of anticipation: "That's more like it. I'm sure I'm still attractive."

He then closed his eyes and quietly awaited death.

However, the ice silkworm standing behind Oscar just looked at him with its big head and round eyes in confusion, thinking, "Is this guy crazy? Why is he blocking my way? If I don't get out of there soon, all the food will be eaten."

Ignoring Oscar, it turned a corner and went straight to enjoy its meal.

Oscar felt the Ice Silkworm's movements behind him, and his eyes and lips twitched involuntarily: "Seriously? Why isn't anyone interested in me?!"

Just as he was numb, Lan Minghua on the snow was laughing hysterically.

"I have to say, this Ice Silkworm is practically the Kapibala of the Soul Beast world, its emotions are so stable."

Although ice silkworms are soul beasts, humans are not on their diet.

Therefore, there was no hostility towards Oscar, an outsider.

Even if Oscar poses a threat to them, they would probably only struggle a little, too lazy to resist.

Moreover, Lan Minghua really didn't expect that Oscar would actually stumble upon the Ice Silkworm Clan by sheer luck.

Or perhaps, it is the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm Clan.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan generally has the effect of enhancing human spiritual power, which is something that other soul beasts do not have.

Lan Minghua was initially worried that Oscar and the others might be in danger if their fourth spirit ring reached the level of a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.

Even if the Northern Darkness God can absorb a portion of the soul ring's power, the success of the absorption still depends on the individual's mental strength.

In terms of mental strength, even Lan Minghua couldn't help Oscar and the others improve.

Tang San, having lived two lives, possessed the spiritual power of two souls, which was barely enough to absorb the ten-thousand-year soul ring.

Therefore, with the help of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm Clan, Oscar and the others will be able to absorb the ten-thousand-year soul ring as their fourth soul ring without any surprises.

Some people might say, "Isn't it only by absorbing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm as a soul ring that one can gain spiritual power?"

No, that's just the most perfect way to handle it.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan is essentially a collection of spiritual energy. Even though the Northern Darkness Divine Art is inefficient at absorbing their spiritual energy, it can still absorb it.

Moreover, Oscar and his three companions possess considerable mental strength. With just a slight improvement, they might be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring as their fourth spirit ring.

While this method cannot continuously enhance mental strength, it can help people overcome their current predicament.

Lan Minghua immediately used telepathy to communicate with Oscar.

"Oscar, you stay there and recover properly. Don't scare those ice silkworms away. I'll be there soon."

Suddenly, Lan Minghua's voice rang out in Oscar's ear, startling him.

He looked around hurriedly, somewhat bewildered, and asked in confusion, "Master, I heard your voice, but I can't see you anywhere?"

"I'm still on the ice, what if you could see me? That would be terrible! This is my Tianlong Gang's telepathic communication skill." Lan Minghua's teasing voice came through.

Upon hearing this, Oscar's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Master, can I learn it?"

"Of course, any disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Gang can learn it. But for now, you should stay where you are and recover from your injuries. I will bring you the spirit beast for your fourth spirit ring."

After explaining a few things, Lan Minghua withdrew from the telepathic communication service.

Oscar followed Lan Minghua's instructions and sat cross-legged in the ice silkworm's cave to recuperate.

At this moment, Lan Minghua hunted down a ten-thousand-year-old Frost Leopard and a ten-thousand-year-old Frostscale Ice Python.

These two spirit beasts were given to Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran as their fourth spirit rings, respectively.

Moreover, he has already made progress on the Mirror Beast.

Lan Minghua put the unconscious Frost Leopard and Frostscale Ice Python into his pouch and returned to Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran's side.

Upon seeing this, the two women quickly stood up and said, "Master."

"Let's go, I'll take you to find someone."

Lan Minghua used his soul power to grab Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran and sped toward the ice cave where Dugu Yan had fallen.

Why go into the ice cave where Dugu Yan fell?

The latest novel is first published here!

Because her situation wasn't as fortunate as Oscar's.

Moreover, the Mirror Beast is also located beneath this ice cave, so naturally, one must enter through this ice cave.

More importantly, the spirit beast of Dugu Yan's fourth spirit ring is also located beneath this ice cave.

At this moment, Dugu Yan had already met the spirit beast of her fourth spirit ring.

That is, the Ten Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion.

It was less of a meeting and more of a chase.

After all, the Ice Jade Scorpion is not like the Ice Silkworm; it has a very strong sense of aggression and territoriality.

Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are already powerful, not to mention the Ice Jade Scorpion is a soul beast race that has produced ferocious beasts, so its strength is beyond doubt.

Dugu Yan is just a level 40 Karami, how could she possibly be a match for the Ten Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion?

Lan Minghua left a backup plan on her, but this backup plan was for her own life and could not be wasted easily.

"Hold on tight!" Sensing that something was wrong with Dugu Yan, Lan Minghua reminded her and then accelerated his dive.

At this moment, Dugu Yan was in a very dangerous situation, even though she had taken Oscar's third soul skill, Rapid Intestine, which increased her speed.

However, it was still unable to distance itself from the Ten Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion.

Sensing the movement behind her, Dugu Yan revealed a hint of despair, "Am I going to die here?"

Just then, the ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion suddenly leaped up and instantly entered the attack range.

Its enormous pincers, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, clamped down hard on Dugu Yan's waist with breathtaking speed.

Dugu Yan's pupils contracted sharply, and her heartbeat almost stopped.

With only level 40 soul power, she was no match for a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

A feeling of despair spread through her, and she closed her eyes resignedly.

"Hey, little scorpion, what do you think you're doing to my apprentice?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan suddenly opened her eyes.

A slipper broke through the ice and landed squarely on the head of the ancient ice scorpion with a loud thud.

In an instant, the hard shell on the Ice Jade Scorpion's head cracked, and it finally collapsed from the strain.

Dugu Yan was deeply shocked by this scene once again.

Despite her best efforts, she couldn't break through the Ice Jade Scorpion's defenses, and it was easily shattered by Lan Minghua's slipper.

Lan Minghua raised his hand and summoned the unconscious Ten Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion into his Devouring Pouch.

He then said to Dugu Yan, "This ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion's spirit ring will be your fourth spirit ring. Now I'll take you to a good place so you can absorb your fourth spirit ring."

Lan Minghua also used his soul power to lift Dugu Yan, locked onto a direction, and flew over with a whoosh.

Not long after they started flying, another ten-thousand-year-old ice scorpion suddenly appeared in the passage.

"It's that scorpion spirit beast again!" Dugu Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Lan Minghua's lips curled into a smile, and he said, "Finally, I've found you!"
