Chapter 69 Ice Silkworms, Ice Jade Scorpions
"Wow, what kind of soul beasts are these?!"
Oscar looked at the pile of maggot-like soul beasts before him, his heart filled with despair.
"Master, I'm afraid I'll have to bury you, my son. Don't worry about me, and I have no regrets about becoming your disciple."
At this moment, Oscar resignedly closed his eyes, silently giving his last words.
Those maggot-like, no, to be precise, maggot-like ice silkworms.
They merely glanced at Oscar, this outsider, and finding him harmless, continued to nonchalantly enjoy their strange food.
With his eyes closed, Oscar only heard the rustling chewing sounds, but he himself was unharmed.
After waiting a while, he muttered to himself, "Aren't they interested in me? Why aren't they eating me?"
Actually, it's no wonder Oscar had this thought.
After all, in the Frozen Forest, once those soul beasts encountered humans, they would relentlessly pursue them like hungry wolves spotting their prey.
Oscar felt like each day was an eternity, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, he opened his eyes.
However, what greeted him was the sight of the ice silkworms relishing an indescribable feast, completely ignoring his presence.
Oscar felt instantly insulted.
"What...what kind of spirit beast is this? Why aren't they eating me!"
Just as he was lamenting, a dark shadow silently appeared behind him, quietly 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 still attractive."
He then closed his eyes, quietly awaiting his death.
However, the ice silkworm standing behind Oscar merely looked at him with its large head and round eyes, 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 gone."
Ignoring Oscar, it turned a corner and went straight to enjoy its meal.
Oscar felt the ice silkworm's movement behind him, and his eyes and mouth twitched involuntarily: "Seriously? Why aren't they interested in me?!"You'll never believe why I moved to… KarachiMeetSinglesLooking for someone in Karachi todaySingleflirtYou'll never believe why I moved to… KarachiMeetSinglesLooking for someone in Karachi todaySingleflirt
Just as he was numb, Lan Minghua on the snow was practically laughing hysterically.
"I have to say, this Ice Silkworm is practically the Kapisa of the Soul Beast world, its emotions are so stable."
Although Ice Silkworms are Soul Beasts, humans are not on their diet.
Therefore, they didn't harbor any hostility towards Oscar, this outsider.
Even if Oscar posed a threat to them, they would probably only struggle a little and be too lazy to fight back.
Moreover, Lan Minghua really didn't expect that Oscar would actually stumble upon the Ice Silkworm clan by sheer luck.
Or rather, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan. The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan
generally has the effect of enhancing human spiritual power, something that other Soul Beasts don't possess.
Originally, Lan Minghua was worried that Oscar and the others would be in danger if their fourth Soul Ring directly reached the ten-thousand-year Soul Ring level.
Even if the Northern Darkness Divine Ability could absorb a portion of the Soul Ring's power, successful absorption still depended on the individual's spiritual power.
In terms of spiritual power, even Lan Minghua couldn't help Oscar and the others improve it.
Tang San, having lived two lives, only had the spiritual power of two souls, which barely allowed him to absorb the ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.
Therefore, with the help of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan, Oscar and his companions would be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring as their fourth spirit ring without any surprises.
Some might say, isn't it only by absorbing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm as a spirit ring that one gains spiritual power?
No, that's just the most perfect solution.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm clan itself is a collection of spiritual power, and even though the Northern Darkness Divine Art's efficiency in absorbing their spiritual power is low, it's still possible to absorb it.
Moreover, Oscar and his companions' spiritual power is not weak; with just a slight increase, they might be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring as their fourth spirit ring.
Although this method cannot continuously increase spiritual power, it can help them break through 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 boomed 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!"
"I'm still on the ice. If you could see me, that would be terrible! This is the Heavenly Dragon Gang's Thousand-Mile Transmission!" Lan Minghua's teasing voice came through.
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 put and recover. I'll bring your fourth spirit ring's spirit beast over to you." After giving some instructions, Lan Minghua withdrew from the telepathic communication.
Oscar, following Lan Minghua's orders, sat cross-legged in the Ice Silkworm's cave to recover from his injuries.
Meanwhile, Lan Minghua had hunted down a ten-thousand-year-old Frost Leopard and a ten-thousand-year-old Frost Scale Ice Python.
These two spirit beasts would become Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran's fourth spirit rings, respectively.
He also had some leads on the Mirror Shadow Beast.
Lan Minghua put the unconscious Frost Leopard and Frost Scale Ice Python into his pouch and returned to Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran's side.
The two girls immediately stood up upon seeing him: "Master."
"Let's go, I'll take you to find someone."
Lan Minghua used his spirit power to lift Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran, speeding towards the ice cave where Dugu Yan had fallen.
Why enter through the ice cave where Dugu Yan had fallen?
Because her situation wasn't as fortunate as Oscar's.
Moreover, the Mirror Shadow Beast was also below this ice cave, so naturally, they had to enter through it.
More importantly, the spirit beast for Dugu Yan's fourth spirit ring was also below this ice cave.
At this moment, Dugu Yan had already encountered her fourth spirit ring's spirit beast:
the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Jade Scorpion.
It was less of a meeting and more of a chase.
Unlike the Ice Silkworm, the Ice Jade Scorpion possessed a much stronger aggressive and territorial instinct.
Ten-thousand-year spirit beasts were inherently powerful, and the Ice Jade Scorpion, being a spirit beast race that had produced ferocious beasts, was undeniably formidable.
Dugu Yan was merely a level 40 Karami; how could she possibly be a match for the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Jade Scorpion?
Lan Minghua had left her a backup plan, but this plan was for survival and couldn't be wasted easily.
"Hold on tight!" Sensing that Dugu Yan's situation was precarious, Lan Minghua warned her, then accelerated and swooped down.
Dugu Yan's situation was extremely dangerous. Even though she had consumed Oscar's third spirit skill, Rapid Intestine, to increase her speed,
she couldn't widen the distance between herself and 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 Ice Jade Scorpion suddenly leaped up and instantly entered her attack range.
Its enormous pincers, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, clamped down fiercely towards Dugu Yan's waist, the speed breathtaking.
Dugu Yan's pupils constricted sharply, her heart almost stopping.
With only level forty soul power, she was utterly powerless against a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
Despair spread through her, and she resignedly closed her eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey, little scorpion, what do you think you're doing to my disciple?"
Hearing this, Dugu Yan abruptly opened her eyes.
A slipper pierced through the ice, landing with a resounding thud on the ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion's head.
Instantly, the Ice Jade Scorpion's hard shell cracked, and it finally succumbed to the pressure and fainted.
Dugu Yan was once again deeply shocked by this sight.
She had attacked with all her might but couldn't break through the Ice Jade Scorpion's defenses, yet Lan Minghua had easily shattered them with a single slipper.
Lan Minghua raised his hand, and the unconscious ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion was absorbed into his Devouring Pouch.
He then said to Dugu Yan, "Consider this ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion's spirit ring 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 spirit power to lift Dugu Yan up, locked onto a direction, and flew off with a whoosh.
They hadn't flown far when another ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion suddenly appeared in the passage.
"It's that scorpion spirit beast again!" Dugu Yan exclaimed.
Lan Minghua's lips curled into a smile, and he said, "Finally, I've found you!"
