Chapter 197: Soul Power Extraction Machine, The Million-Year Dream Ice Silkworm
"Can this guy really predict the future? How does he know all of this?" Gu Yue smiled bitterly, having already grown accustomed to it.
Indeed, after separating Nari, Gu Yue, as the primary personality, would control the full power of the Silver Dragon King, while Nari would possess a fraction of that power.
Gu Yue didn't hesitate and decided to separate Nari.
Nari's personality had already fully formed, and unless she agreed, even Gu Yue would find it difficult to forcibly fuse with her. After the split, Nari could eventually return to her original form.
With this safeguard, Gu Yue made up her mind.
After the separation, Nari was extremely happy. She finally had a body of her own and no longer had to fight Gu Yue for control.
She couldn't compete before, and if it weren't for Ye Wen, she would most likely have been trapped in the depths of Gu Yue's mind forever, losing her freedom and even being absorbed.
"Thank you, Ye Wen." Nari jumped into Ye Wen's arms.
"Uh, hehe, alright Nari, let go of Ye Wen now," Ye Wen smiled awkwardly. The girl was already in her teens, and it was clear she wasn't a little child anymore. She was growing into a young woman, and Ye Wen couldn't afford to embrace her casually. Otherwise, he might become... stiff.
"Got it~" Nari pouted and obediently replied.
Letting Nari exist as an independent individual was one of Ye Wen's goals, along with Xiao Bai, Xue Di, and the others.
"Good." Ye Wen gently patted Nari's head.
Now, there was still something else to do. He turned to Di Tian and said, "Di Tian, the reason you all went into slumber back then was to absorb the energy from that million-year Dream Ice Silkworm, wasn't it?"
"That's right." Di Tian nodded. "That creature had incredible luck. I heard it say, all it did was eat and sleep every day, and yet, it cultivated to a million-year level, becoming the first million-year soul beast on this continent."
"Unfortunately, although it had a million years of cultivation, its strength was very weak. It couldn't even defeat most soul beasts above 50,000 years, let alone 100,000-year soul beasts."
"It had an extremely rich amount of celestial energy and power."
"When we discovered it in the Star Dou Forest, we immediately captured it and used its energy to speed up our cultivation. Unfortunately, this Dream Ice Silkworm can only last for another 10,000 years. Its energy is not as rich as it once was."
"Yeah! Otherwise, if we could absorb a few more thousand years of energy, our cultivation would have improved significantly."
"Heh, as expected." Ye Wen chuckled. "Di Tian, can you take me to find this Dream Ice Silkworm?"
"Of course, follow me," Di Tian nodded, reluctantly getting up and leading Ye Wen and the soul beasts to the place where they had been absorbing the Dream Ice Silkworm's energy.
Thus, Ye Wen, his soul beasts, and Di Tian's group of over ten soul beasts, each with over 100,000 years of cultivation, set out together.
The uncontracted Ant King, along with Ant II and Ant III, followed behind Ant King.
Moments later, Di Tian led the group to a large mountain. "It's here."
With that, Di Tian released his energy, and a space seemed to open, allowing them to enter.
The space inside was similar to the Star Dou Forest—a vast forest.
"I see, so there's another hidden space inside the Star Dou Forest. No wonder, no wonder, I've searched the entire forest and found Di Tian's group. Turns out, there's another hidden space here," Ye Wen realized as he took in the surroundings.
It was possible to sense the outside world from within, but difficult for anyone from the outside to detect the presence inside.
Meanwhile, the million-year Dream Ice Silkworm was preparing to escape!
"This is strange, the troublesome guys suddenly left, what happened? Whatever, I don't care, this is a rare opportunity. I must leave today!" The Dream Ice Silkworm was overjoyed inside.
How long has it been! How long!
It had been under Di Tian's control for years, forced to release energy every day to provide power to the beasts.
Damn it, I've become a soul power ATM!
But despite all this time, the Dream Ice Silkworm had never given up. It had been outsmarting Di Tian and his group, constantly thinking of ways to escape.
Today, it finally had the perfect opportunity!
"Hmph! Di Tian, do you think your tricks can trap me? After so many years, I've figured out how to break free!"
"Finally! I'm finally going to be free!"
"Ha ha ha! Brother, I'm finally escaping!"
The Dream Ice Silkworm was ecstatic.
When Di Tian left, he put some measures in place to prevent it from escaping. However, after being controlled for so many years, the Dream Ice Silkworm had figured out many things and knew how to undo the traps.
Now, it was about to break free!
Bang! Boom!
The shackles that had bound it were completely removed, and the Dream Ice Silkworm finally broke free.
"Success!"
"Hahahaha! I'm free! I'm free!!" The giant white insect laughed to the sky, overwhelmed with excitement, but the next second, its expression suddenly changed, and the smile disappeared.
The Dream Ice Silkworm felt it—Di Tian's group had returned!
And it seemed they had brought along a group of equally terrifying beings!
Despite being a million-year soul beast, though weak in combat, the Dream Ice Silkworm possessed incredibly strong spiritual power!
Even Di Tian and Ye Wen couldn't match its spiritual power.
"Not good! That creature is trying to escape!" Di Tian immediately sensed the seal had been undone.
"Heh, can't let this guy escape," Ye Wen smiled coldly and immediately dashed forward!
"Done for! Done for! I mustn't be caught again!"
The Dream Ice Silkworm had lost its smile. It only had one thought now—escape!
But the next second—Bang!
"Sorry, this big bug, you can't leave just yet."
Ye Wen had already blocked the Dream Ice Silkworm's path, and soon, Di Tian's beasts, along with Ye Wen's soul beasts, surrounded it from all sides.
"Impossible!!" The Dream Ice Silkworm felt despair.
