Chapter 134: Intercepting the Ice Silkworm
On the other side a plump white insect was fleeing at an extremely fast speed.
With its ability to interfere with mental processes it was virtually impossible for anyone to detect its presence except for its natural enemy Hyotei.
This huge fat worm was over a metre in diameter and over seven metres long.
Its entire body was white jade-coloured crystal clear with a halo flowing under its skin and a pair of small golden eyes on its head.
Nine golden patterns encircled its body representing its nine hundred thousand years of cultivation.
"Damn Hyotei—Tianmeng-nii—I will definitely come back!"
"You've made Tianmeng look so pathetic. When I get back I'll definitely make you pay!"
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm ran southeast. Its cultivation had broken through to 990,000 years but its experience was like a blank sheet of paper.
Its mind only contained some basic knowledge derived from its bloodline such as information about its natural enemy Hyotei.
However along the way it overheard a lot of useful information from human conversations.
"Is the largest soul beast forest on the continent called Star Dou Great Forest? There shouldn't be any Ice Jade Emperor Scorpions surviving there anymore right?"
A good forest without natural enemies was the right forest for a soul beast.
It decided that it would go to live in Star Dou Great Forest where it would no longer have to worry about attacks from natural enemies.
Little did it know that it had devoured countless amounts of ice marrow and its body was now like a precious medicine brimming with vital energy.
Soul beasts that ate it would greatly increase their cultivation level and even if they went to Star Dou Great Forest they could not escape the risk of being eaten.
However the soul beasts of Star Dou Great Forest might sustainably deplete the resources and not consume them all at once.
Tianmeng passed through the Kingdom of Häagen-Dazs and entered the Province of Fanos.
According to the information obtained from its extraordinary spiritual power its utopia Star Dou Great Forest was almost here.
Just then its soul detected several terrifying auras appearing.
Just as Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was trying to find out the source of this aura suddenly a beam of light came from the east.
This beam of light came from Glowing Feather Douluo who was travelling with Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong along with Mighty Lion Douluo and Glowing Feather Douluo intercepted Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's path following Qi Tian's guidance.
The Fifth Priest having honed his archery skills possessed exceptional perception and eyesight; even the slightest disturbance could draw his attention.
That arrow of light just now was one he fired following his own senses.
"Your Holiness—it's been found—it's right there!" he announced.
"Alright—surround it and don't let it escape!" Bibi Dong said.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm barely managed to block the arrow with an ice shield but it also revealed its position.
"Oh no—it's a human Titled Douluo!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm panicked.
With its senses how could it not detect the terrifying cultivation level of the newcomer—the highest of whom was a human Soul Master of level ninety-eight?
Moreover it felt a stinging pain from that person indicating that its mental energy used for probing had been damaged.
"It's over—where should I run to?" It felt a sense of despair as it faced the strongest human being.
If it had survived nine tribulations it naturally wouldn't be afraid of these mere three human soul masters but right now it was just a piece of trash.
...
"Humans—stop right now!"
"Look at that? It looks like a human soul master's skill?" Hyotei sensed a violent fluctuation of soul power.
Although she was a powerful and ferocious beast she dared not be arrogant on human territory.
If the Ice Silkworm wasn't caught but the user was killed by a human Soul Master then the joke would be far too serious.
Qi Tian naturally saw the arrow of light as well and since his divided soul had another perspective he also knew who the arrow of light came from.
"Don't be afraid—those human soul masters were invited by me!" Qi Tian said.
"What? You despicable human—do you want to control my body and sacrifice it to them?" The voice from Hyotei's soul was somewhat grating.
"You despicable human—you broke your promise! I knew you wanted my spirit ring and spirit bone!"
Hyotei's soul struggled incessantly but no matter how she tried she could not regain control of her body.
"What kind of skill is this? Even I can't resist it?"
Hyotei was in despair; she never imagined she would die in this way.
Qi Tian chuckled. "Ice Emperor—what are you thinking? Those three humans were hired by me to help you hunt down the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm!"
"With just one soul beast like you—you can't possibly catch up with the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. It's about to escape into Star Dou Great Forest!"
"Are you telling the truth?" A glimmer of hope rose in Hyotei's heart.
But she could only trust Qi Tian because she had no other choice!
However after this fright even if she safely returned to the far north she would keep her distance from the human world.
Qi Tian rushed towards the scene of the battle and soon saw Bibi Dong chasing after Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
In the other two directions Mighty Lion Douluo and Glowing Feather Douluo were guarding one side.
The plump body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm soon bore several wounds from which the not-yet-fully-digested Ice Marrow Qi seeped.
That blood was a treasure comparable to a miraculous medicine; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the flesh of Tang Sanzang.
"Damn humans—Brother Tianmeng—my mental power can't affect her at all."
"Her spirit can even devour my spiritual power. Brother Tianmeng has really failed this time!"
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was completely unable to resist Bibi Dong's attacks; Bibi Dong's Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor was its nemesis.
Moreover Bibi Dong possessed a complete set of soul bones; the Wisdom Soul Bone protected her soul making her unafraid of Tianmeng's mental attacks.
Qi Tian's arrival immediately alerted the three Titled Douluo.
"A soul beast? And an extremely powerful one at that?"
The three looked at Qi Tian and even Bibi Dong sensed a hint of danger. Glowing Feather Douluo even raised his spirit.
"Qi Tian—is that your partner?" Bibi Dong asked.
"That's right—it's her—a 390,000-year-old soul beast—one of the soul beast kings of the far north," Qi Tian said.
Bibi Dong looked at Hyotei's appearance. Although she was somewhat unusual she was still an unparalleled beauty.
She was somewhat displeased. "Qi Tian—why don't we kill her—force her to reveal the method for condensing a soul core—and then make her your soul ring?"
"No—please don't!" Qi Tian was startled.
If Bibi Dong were to make a move Hyotei might not necessarily come out on top—let alone the Hyotei she controlled.
"Hmph—you're really not picky about food—you even like soul beasts that haven't taken human form!" Bibi Dong snorted coldly and said nothing more.
How could she not see that Qi Tian definitely had some mysterious relationship with that soul beast?
"Dong'er—I'm doing this for our future path to godhood!" Qi Tian could only say a few nice words to coax her.
"Ice Emperor—save me!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm saw Ice Emperor and actually cried out for help to its natural enemy.
The next moment it saw Hyotei make its move.
"As expected—even though we're both soul beasts—Ice Emperor still loves me!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm breathed a sigh of relief.
"Be careful—Dong'er! That soul beast is the natural enemy of the Ice Silkworm—and its skills also counter this Ice Silkworm. She's made her move!" Qi Tian said.
In fact it was Qi Tian who made the move—shooting a beam of emerald green light towards Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
This was the ultimate ice—the wrath of the Ice Emperor. The injured Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was instantly frozen into a large block of ice.
