Kong Mingan's purpose for this trip was naturally the million-year Spirit Beast, the Tianmeng Ice Worm.
Previously, due to the higher priority of matters like the "Imprintspirit tool" and the "man-made spirit ring device," and also because of the potential threat from the Silver Dragon King, he had temporarily shelved the idea of luring the Tianmeng Ice Worm.
But now, utilizing the method of Incarnation, he had no further worries, and having just mastered this Incarnation method, it was the perfect time to act... On the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Ancient trees reached the sky, vines were in Binding, and the air was filled with the scent of damp earth and wood.
Everything around was silent, save for the occasional low roar of a distant Spirit Beast, instinctively putting people on guard.
Yet at this moment, a handsome young man and a petite young woman were strolling together through the forest with a hint of leisure.
Suddenly, the bushes to the side shook violently, and several grayish-black humanoid figures lunged out with roars.
They were a few Wind Baboons whose cultivation was roughly at the hundred-year level.
They had ferocious faces and exposed fangs, moving as fast as the wind, their sharp claws aimed directly at the two seemingly defenseless people.
However, in the next moment, the petite young woman merely took half a step forward casually and tapped her fingertip.
"Crack! Crack!--"
Extreme cold Qi instantly spread out from her fingertip; the air seemed to freeze solid.
The Wind Baboons that were mid-lunge, maintaining their charging and biting posture, were instantly encased in thick, solid ice, turning into ice sculptures before crashing heavily to the ground and shattering into countless crystal shards.
The young woman, or rather, the Ice Emperor,
She frowned and complained, "This Incarnation is really weak. I could blow a breath stronger than this."
Having her consciousness transfer from her own body to this Incarnation, the feeble power made her feel restricted and constrained.
"What kind of powerful Incarnation vessel did you expect me, a 'mere' human, a 'mere' Spirit Ancestor, to create?"
Kong Mingan glared at the Ice Emperor in annoyance.
Even though his cultivation had improved rapidly and his current strength was exceptionally powerful, compared to the Ice Emperor, he was still slightly weaker overall.
The Ice Emperor looked disdainfully at her Incarnation and continued to complain:
"The shaping is also terrible! I feel shorter than my real self!"
Kong Mingan raised an eyebrow, his tone becoming certain: "That's impossible. The data strictly follows your main body; it's exactly as tall and as large as you are."
"Nonsense!" The Ice Emperor bristled. "How could I be this small!"
"Heh." Kong Mingan cast a look of pity toward the Ice Emperor.
"It's not you!" The Ice Emperor flushed with anger.
Under the sound-sealing barrier of mental force controlled by Kong Mingan, the Ice Emperor grit her teeth, slightly flustered, as they continued their journey, bickering all the way.
However, in this seemingly relaxed atmosphere, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently without warning!
Large swaths of trees ahead collapsed as if crushed by an invisible giant force, and a massive mental pressure swept over them like a tsunami.
Immediately following, wisps of cold Qi permeated the air, the sky suddenly darkened, and an enormous, round, and chubby white silkworm-shaped figure slowly "rose" from the ground.
Its entire body was crystal clear like jade, emitting faint golden light and astonishing cold Qi, while ten golden circular patterns encircled its body, radiating an exceptionally vast Energy fluctuation.
"Wahahaha! Big Brother finally found a human with mental attributes! Let Big Brother see what this lucky fellow looks like. Huh?"
The Tianmeng Ice Worm's slightly smug voice echoed on the mental plane.
However, when its gaze fell upon the two figures below, who were overly calm and even still bickering, it couldn't help but be stunned.
This reaction is wrong, isn't it? Seeing this Million-Year Spirit Beast Lord, shouldn't they be terrified or immediately bow down?
However, before it could think further,
In the next moment, it saw the young man suppress the young woman beside him with one hand, then look up and flash an incredibly benevolent smile at it.
Then,
"Bang! Bang!"
Two violent explosions rang out almost simultaneously, and the two figures actually exploded without any warning.
The violent Energy shockwave seemed to have plowed the surrounding ground, leaving it riddled with holes.
The Tianmeng Ice Worm remained suspended in place, unharmed, but completely dumbfounded:
"Wait. They just self-destructed without saying a word? Am I that scary? Hold on, this Energy sensation... it doesn't seem human?!"
Tianmeng quickly realized something was wrong and was preparing to dig a hole to hide, but in the next moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended!
A colossal, dark-green hand that blotted out the sky appeared out of thin air, containing the tyrannical power to suppress everything.
With lightning speed, it firmly grasped the Tianmeng Ice Worm's massive body, instantly placing a Seal upon it.
The figure of Poison Undying descended, then he unhesitatingly threw out a metal block inscribed with a special spirit tool matrix.
Instantly, the metal block warped and unfolded, and a one-time spatial gateway opened.
Holding the Tianmeng Ice Worm, Poison Undying unhesitatingly threw the spherical, unconscious Tianmeng Ice Worm into the spatial gateway.
The Tianmeng Ice Worm disappeared, and the gateway naturally dissipated.
Poison Undying clapped his hands, as if he had just completed a trivial task.
"Done. Time to clock out."
His mission was to strike and capture the target upon receiving the signal.
Now that the mission was completed to Perfection, he naturally had to withdraw.
The battle more than a year ago, where he was repeatedly beaten by Mu En's one-sided use of Reign Over the World yet remained alive, had given him many insights.
Especially after personally enduring Mu En's Reign Over the World hundreds of times, he vaguely seemed to have touched upon something.
It was a feeling of his own will highly integrated in Fusion with his spirit power, mental force, and Qi-blood force—profoundly mysterious and hard to describe.
He tried to calm his mind and feel it carefully, but he couldn't quite grasp it.
It was a pity that after Mu En realized he wouldn't kill Xuan Zi, Mu En stopped interfering no matter how much he beat Xuan Zi. What a shame.
Shaking his head, Poison Undying prepared to return and continue his contemplation, striving to seize that fleeting inspiration.
He had a premonition that this might be his chance to advance to the limit!
With a flash, Poison Undying's figure vanished, and the Star Dou Great Forest returned to its usual tranquility... Undead Sub-Plane, Special Confinement Laboratory.
The Tianmeng Ice Worm's consciousness slowly awoke from a state of Chaos, filled with immense confusion.
Even now, it hadn't figured out what exactly had happened.
I remember meeting a human with a mental-type Spirit, right? Then they suddenly exploded, and then... I ended up here?
Tianmeng felt slightly dazed, sensing that it had been set up.
It tried to move, but found its body tightly bound by countless faintly glowing Energy chains.
It couldn't mobilize even a trace of spirit power or mental force; only its consciousness could still think.
It opened its eyes with some difficulty.
As its vision gradually cleared, it saw several figures standing before it.
Its gaze swept over the people, and when it landed on the young woman radiating icy coldness, it paused slightly, a hint of pleasant surprise flashing in its eyes:
"Ice Emperor? Is that really you, Ice Emperor!"
The Ice Emperor looked at Tianmeng, her brows slightly furrowed.
Without speaking, she immediately grabbed Kong Mingan's hand, pulled him in front of herself, and then leaned against his side, using his body to block Tianmeng's line of sight.
Tianmeng: "???"
Tianmeng felt as if it had been struck by lightning.
