Chapter 494: Forgetting One’s Roots
A dark red light surged out from Huo Yuhao’s Eye of Destiny, and the Evil Emperor eventually transformed into a smaller version of himself, floating beside him.
Huo Yuhao's aura continued to surge, and the seventh soul ring of his Spirit Eye Martial Soul changed from dark red to orange-gold, and the number increased to three.
Feeling the continued surge of power, Huo Yuhao's heart was in turmoil. He wished he had just followed his teacher when she invited him to leave.
No, that's not right, what should mom do then? But if it wasn't for protecting him, mom wouldn't be...
I really envy Luo Li, he made a completely different choice from what I did back then. That can't be said, if only my mother could support me like Madam Luo did Dai Luo Li, that kid would be a Soul King now!
But he was also a lucky guy. Fate gave him a second chance. He couldn't imagine what kind of situation he would be in if the teacher hadn't invited him again after his mother passed away.
This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed! He has been used to the good life with the dragon above him. He has changed from a wild cat to a house cat that can't live without a can!
At this moment, a melodious and crisp "ding" sound was heard, as clear and ethereal as the collision of ice crystals, which instantly cleared his mind and a tiny crack appeared on the surface of the cocoon.
The Evil Emperor withdrew his tentacles angrily. They were already souls, so what was wrong with touching them?
That thing looked more like an egg than a cocoon, with a faint ice-blue halo flowing on its surface, as if it was made of golden threads and frost. It was suspended in front of Huo Yuhao, faintly exuding the pressure of the dragon soul.
Then, the second crack quickly emerged, and slight "cracking" sounds were heard continuously, like the low hum of ice breaking. The cracks spread out in a tortoise-like shape, and golden light and icy-blue cold air overflowed from the gaps, interweaving into a gorgeous light mist.
Huo Yuhao held his breath and his heart beat faster.
With a soft "pop" sound, the golden cocoon suddenly split open, and a white and slender little hand stretched out from it. The hand was delicate and tender, with a hint of ice-blue luster on the fingertips. The cocoon shell completely shattered, and golden light and cold mist instantly filled the air. A petite figure slowly emerged from the light.
Mu Xing and Alex gathered around excitedly. Even Di Tian wanted to see what a soul that had cultivated for a million years could evolve into, although it was most likely to be a moth.
Not to mention the three-eyed golden tabby, cats are always curious.
Although Bingdi's face was full of disgust, he couldn't help but be curious. He wanted to know whether this piece of trash who had actually run away with the money and benefited the entire Star Dou Great Forest could become a little more useful.
After all, they were companions who were working hard towards the goal of becoming gods together, so she naturally hoped that the other party could become better.
"It's born! It's a..." Mu Xing's expression gradually changed from surprise to indescribable.
The light faded, and a slender and beautiful humanoid creature emerged, whose gender could not be determined. It was less than 1.5 meters tall, with skin as white as snow, and as crystal clear as an ice sculpture. Its blonde hair was as smooth as silk, with a layer of cold ice-blue light, and the ends of its hair were slightly curled, like flowing frost gold, reaching its shoulders, and fluttering gently as it shook its body, revealing a bit of unruliness in its exquisiteness. Its golden pupils were clear and bright, like crystal, and it was smart and playful and confident, and it revealed a bit of complacency in the blink of an eye.
A pair of ice crystal wings behind it, slightly larger than those of ordinary moth-like soul beasts, slowly unfolded, but more gentle and elegant. The translucent wings were dotted with tiny dragon scales, glittering like pearls, and when they flapped, they sprinkled crystal scale powder like ice chips. The two ice-blue dragon horns on the forehead were short and delicate, slightly upturned, and a few insect segments and dragon scales were scattered on the body, like natural decorations, faintly emitting a chill.
At the same time, she was wearing a wide cloak interwoven with gold and ice blue, with ice blue dragon and ice flower patterns on the edges. It hung loosely on her body and fluttered in the wind. She wore a simple ice blue short skirt inside, revealing her slender white calves. The hem of the skirt swayed slightly with her movements, which was smart and casual.
"It's a rich girl." Mu Xing made the final decision.
“Hahahahahaha, brother is finally out! You unruly people, why don’t you quickly kneel down and welcome Emperor Tianmeng? I’m so great…” The big fluttering moth that was shining with golden light suddenly felt like a thorn in his throat.
The first thing Tian Meng saw when he broke out of the cocoon was the ferocious beasts and the auspicious imperial beasts ranked first, second, seventh, and ninth (whoever believed it would die, as the last force that firmly believed in it had successfully settled in Soto City for several years), as well as a male ghost who had beaten it up before, staring at him with unfriendly eyes. Tian Meng suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and wanted to shrink back into the cocoon, but found that the cocoon was broken beyond repair.
Huo Yuhao stared at the graceful moth, his eyes sliding from the delicate golden hair and golden pupils to the slender dragon horns and agile ice crystal wings, and finally landing on the white calves exposed under the short skirt. He couldn't help but blurt out: "You are really a girl, right?"
"Bah, I have a dick!" Tian Meng was so angry that he lifted up the hem of his clothes.
“Stop! There are girls here!” Huo Yuhao hurriedly tried to pull his hand, but the girls present seemed to be all ferocious beasts or soul beasts, and apart from Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui, there were no other humans.
But he would never allow his soul to do such an indecent thing in front of his respected predecessors!
"Your aura is somewhat familiar, but your appearance is quite strange. Who are you?" Although the Evil Emperor had an inconclusive communication with the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in the past, this change was so shocking that it did not dare to confirm it for a while.
Tian Meng instantly stood up when he heard this, "Hehe! Since you asked sincerely, I will mercifully tell you! I am the unprecedented million years..."
"Sis!" Mu Xing once again made the final decision.
"I do not……"
"Yes, he is." Di Tian's agreement strengthened the credibility of this conclusion.
"Oh my god! I remember now, you are the useless fat silkworm!" The evil emperor took advantage of Tianmeng's unpreparedness, rolled him up with his tentacles, and sucked him hard. They are all companions, so what's wrong with sucking him hard?
"Stop it, you perverted big eyeball!" Tian Meng's tears spurted out like ice beads that had broken off the string, "Yuhao, save me!"
Bingdi was holding a potted plant and watching the show. She was happy to see Tianmeng get humiliated. The worthless little boy deserved to be taught a lesson by the big-eyed guy with his tentacles!
Is there no other normal man in my spiritual sea besides me? Huo Yuhao glanced at the trembling dragon of fear in the corner of the spiritual sea, and after calming it with his spiritual power for a while, he decided not to ask about its gender.
"I have a wife and children, a lot of them." The Evil Emperor took the time to answer Huo Yuhao's question while absorbing Tianmeng, and he also specially emphasized the number of his wife and children.
“Who asked you?!” This was the first time Huo Yuhao lost his temper with a soul other than Tianmeng.
“I thought this was standard equipment!” The Evil Emperor revealed his true colors. He ignored Huo Yuhao, the irritable child, and said to Di Tian in a sarcastic tone, “Oh, sorry, I forgot you don’t have it. Picked-up items don’t count.”
The next moment, the air seemed to freeze, and even the sound of breathing sounded awkward.
After becoming Huo Yuhao’s soul, the Evil Emperor was certain that the Beast God would not dare to do anything to it. Huo Yuhao was a precious vessel, but it did not mind playing the role of a mouse at all. After all, it could become a god without doing anything. It just liked the way Emperor Tian could not stand it but could not get rid of it.
Now it was Huo Yuhao's turn to feel dizzy. The last person who used his ultimate skill against his elder at close range was Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. But Di Tian was not as easy to talk to as Mu Xing, and this time was more serious than the last time. This matter could not be resolved by simply dragging Big Eyeball out and giving him a beating.
No, buddy, why do you like to jump around in other people's minefields? Every time you step on a minefield, it hits you! Huo Yuhao wanted to cry but had no tears. His control over the souls was limited to hitting wherever he pointed, and when Alex invented this contract, he had never thought of restricting the souls' right to speak. After all, soul beasts under 100,000 years old almost cannot speak, and few people over 100,000 years old have the opportunity to make a contract with them.
He looked at his teacher for help, but saw that Muxing's eyes were wandering between them, as if he was going to let a certain dragon explode in silence.
"I think the content of the contract needs to be adjusted." Alex spoke to break the silence, and then he had to write this clause into the contract: "High-level souls must remember that their words and deeds represent the image of the contractor, and they must always be careful in what they say and do, otherwise the contractor has the right to deprive them of the right to speak."
Because the Evil Emperor also offended him.
The protagonist who was being mocked directly in the face seemed unusually calm at this moment. Di Tian even held down the golden shaded tiger who was about to pounce on him and bite his big eyes. Although Huo Yuhao didn't dare to look at his expression, he could still feel the oppressive feeling of impending storm.
"It doesn't matter, you will be gone soon."
Before the Evil Emperor could react, Huo Yuhao felt a physiological nausea. A few years ago, his teacher and the Beast God went on a long journey, and when they came back, the cafeteria at the Dragon Pavilion headquarters was filled with seafood.
Huo Yuhao looked at the tentacles of the Evil Emperor and recalled the days when he ate so much seafood that he vomited. He thought that the taste of the Evil Eye Clan should not be very good. After all, there are many varieties of sea soul beasts, so what dishes can be made with the Evil Eye?
Will the little eyeballs burst after being grilled by charcoal?
By the time Big Eyes came to his senses, not only his wife and children, but even his grandchildren were starting to suffer.
The screams of the evil eyes gradually rose one after another in all parts of the Demon Forest. Seeing this, the Evil Emperor slid to his knees even more thoroughly than the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm did before.
"It's very difficult to calm him down. Even I can't do it easily." Mu Xing rejected the big-eyed begging. There is always a price to pay for being a jerk. For example, the last time Tianmeng Ice Silkworm provoked her, the Ice Silkworm Clan was served on the table.
Why do some ignorant races always mistakenly think that dragons are easy-going creatures? They are dragons, not hardworking earth beasts!
Amid the grief-stricken screams of Big Eyeball, the Beast God returned with a full load. Especially after seeing the pile of head soul bones and colorful crystals, the Evil Emperor let out a sharp roar while looking at Emperor Tian with a half-smile in his eyes.
The evil eye is not a separate group, but is divided into different races. The fewer abilities a race has, the stronger it is. In other words, the fewer innate soul skills a race has, the stronger it is.
After the evil eye's cultivation reaches the ten thousand year level, their souls will be sublimated and form a crystal, and then the soul's origin will be hidden inside it. Even if the evil eye's spiritual attributes are not pure, it can allow the soul to escape after death. Those crystals of different colors represent that they have several different attributes.
But now, because of their ancestors’ provocation against the Beast God, all the evil eyes that were more than ten thousand years old were caught in one fell swoop.
Mu Xing picked up a silver crystal in the eyes of the Evil Emperor, which contained extremely strong soul fluctuations.
Ignoring the Evil Emperor's gaze which had changed from grief and anger to pleading, Mu Xing poked the crystal with his sharp dragon claws, but was unable to break it directly. The powerful soul power was immediately gathered inside, causing the crystal to sparkle with silver light.
"Let me see it." Alex took the crystal from Muxing's hand, a difficult spell sounded, and a small cluster of white flames gradually formed in front of him.
This small cluster of flames seemed to have no temperature at all, but it gradually condensed. The silver crystals that were not afraid of even the dragon claws before began to flicker violently after this small cluster of flames appeared.
At the same time, an angry voice came from inside the crystal: "You dare to kill me? You are dead! My father will avenge me!"
Alex looked at the speechless eyes, then looked at the silver crystal in his hand and threw it into the flames without hesitation.
"Okay, be more careful with your words in your next life." He even threatened me. Do you really think he is a good person?
The moment it was touched by this small cluster of seemingly inconspicuous flames, an extremely shrill scream suddenly came from inside the silver crystal, and it melted like ice and snow. However, not a single wisp of the silver airflow coming out of it was able to escape from the white flames, but was completely absorbed and incinerated by the flames.
Then, a blood-red soul ring bloomed after the silver crystal completely melted.
“So it needs to be transcended with the Fire of Purification before it can become a spirit ring?” Mu Xing put away the hundred thousand year spirit ring in the spirit ring storage device and turned his attention to another pile of sparkling crystals.
“No!” The Evil Emperor screamed immediately. His youngest child’s soul had been burned away. “I was wrong. I was really wrong! Isn’t it enough for me to apologize? Please, I will cooperate with whatever you want me to do.”
"Then cooperate with my research." Alex took away all the evil eye crystal cores as a matter of course. "The evil eyes in this plane are very valuable for research, and they coincide with a certain topic I am currently working on."
“For example, making it into a soul?” Di Tian seemed to be thinking. Once a soul beast like the Evil Eye breaks through the ten thousand years of cultivation, its soul ring will not explode immediately after death, which saves a lot of soul ring storage devices.
No one would sympathize with the big-eyed creature that was almost wiped out. Everyone had told it what happened to the Snow Emperor, so why did it deliberately get angry?
Can you just get close to the CEO and do whatever you want after you join the company? No matter how many wives and children you have, you can't stand such a torment!
