31: Fallen Siren (1)Due to the appearance of the frost snake demon earlier, Shen Hanyu had no choice but to slightly change his route and detour to a more inland area.
Although I walked dozens of kilometers in vain, at least my safety was guaranteed to a certain extent. Otherwise, I might have been squeezed dry by the frost snake demon...
As for this kind of thing, if it were a normal situation, Shen Hanyu would definitely not be polite, but now, they still have the mission of hunting for the sixth soul ring, and they cannot make any mistakes, otherwise the consequences will definitely make him regret for the rest of his life.
The wind is weaker in the inland areas, and you can already see some low vegetation struggling to survive in the wind and snow. The plants here are very peculiar, without a trace of green. Both the branches and leaves are white or blue. They look good, but in this situation it just adds a dull and lonely atmosphere.
Tian Meng also became more vigilant, and like a radar, he provided Shen Hanyu with timely warnings and the easiest route. He even transformed himself into the Far North Encyclopedia from time to time to answer some of Shen Hanyu's previous questions.
Shen Hanyu was in a hurry to get on the road while chatting with Tianmeng. The sky slowly changed slightly during this process. It became a little darker, and the light and temperature slowly disappeared and dropped...
"Han Yu, it's getting dark. There is a small cave 800 meters to the right. No soul beasts live there. Let's just make do with it for now..."
Tianmeng said.
Shen Hanyu nodded and followed Tianmeng's instructions to the small slope. Sure enough, he found a cave of medium size under two huge rocks.
The cave was very clean, and the ground was dry, with soft fine soil. Tian Meng sensed it and said in surprise,
"This seems to be the aura of a member of our Ice Silkworm Clan. Judging from the size of his body, he must have cultivated for at least 30,000 years."
"oh?"
Shen Hanyu tidied up casually, spread a blanket made of fire lizard fur on the ground, and covered it with a quilt made of fire lion king fur.
Both of these soul beasts are the best among fire-attributed soul beasts. Not only are they extremely powerful, but even after death their fur will carry a strong fire-attributed energy for a long time. They can still generate residual heat in such a cold environment, which shows their durability.
"Apart from you, is there anyone in your Ice Silkworm Clan who can survive for more than ten thousand years?"
Shen Hanyu was a little curious. It was not easy for a soul beast like the Ice Silkworm to cultivate for a thousand years, and it was even rarer to see one that cultivated for ten thousand years. For a soul beast like Tianmeng...
Hmm… it's just like a cow having its butt cut – it's really eye-opening…
Tian Meng snorted, and then the body transformed by his spiritual power slowly appeared beside Shen Hanyu, and said proudly:
"My Ice Silkworm Clan has no less than ten subsidiary races, such as the Sky Ice Silkworm, a violent and durable soul beast, and the Cold Jade Ice Silkworm, a rare soul beast that can be called the Emerald Swan of the Far North. Don't think that silkworm soul beasts can't make a name for themselves. I'm an example. I'm the emperor of the supreme, strongest, kindest, and most handsome soul beasts, the true ancestor of silkworm soul beasts..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Tianmeng, do you think I'm stupid or foolish? Come on, just wait for Brother Niyu to take you to take off, just lie down..."
Shen Hanyu interrupted immediately. Once Tianmeng started to act pretentiously, she was like a sow on a tree, and no one could stop her!
Tianmeng smiled bitterly, then cleared his throat and said seriously:
"Hanyu, this place is not far from the territory of the Fallen Siren. Although I believe in you and myself, I still have to explain a few important things to you in advance."
Shen Hanyu nodded and waited for what to come.
Tian Meng paused and said:
"First of all, although the Fallen Sea Monsters belong to the Sea Monster clan, their intelligence is not high. The 100,000-year-old soul beasts are only about 30,000 years old. But this does not mean that they are brainless. On the contrary, their perception is sometimes frighteningly sharp."
"Secondly, although they are not very intelligent, they are extremely powerful. The scales on their bodies can even resist most energy attacks. Their fighting skills are also outstanding. It is an instinct engraved in their bones. Once a fight starts, they will never give up unless one side is bleeds."
"Third, the other party possesses the ultimate ice attribute. Although it is not a big problem for you at the moment, the most important thing is that you have to rely on yourself to comprehend the true meaning of ultimate ice. Only then can you enter this level. This is a difficult process. Whether you succeed or not depends on you."
"If I use all my mental strength at the moment, I can probably completely control the opponent for about five seconds. During this time, you need to unleash your strongest attack at the moment, attacking the opponent's brain where the defense is the weakest, and then directly enter the opponent's nest to absorb the soul ring."
"Brother can help you absorb or seal a part of the opponent's energy, but whether you can hold on depends on you."
"This is undoubtedly what you humans call a gamble. We are going to bet everything on it, Han Yu, do you understand?"
Shen Hanyu nodded solemnly and said,
"I know my limits, don't worry."
Tian Meng nodded silently and wanted to say something several times, but no words came out.
Shen Hanyu smiled helplessly, covered the cave entrance with ice and snow, leaving only holes for ventilation, and then said:
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Tian Meng, just say whatever you want to say. There's nothing you can't say. We are very similar, and sometimes we don't quite get along, but at this point, you can't turn back, so you better just say it."
Tian Meng stared at Shen Hanyu for a long time with his small eyes, and finally sighed and said:
"Han Yu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but there are many top-level soul beasts here. Even if they are not 100,000-year-old, they are still very outstanding. I'm not sure, but up to now, there has been no precedent for a human soul master to absorb a 100,000-year-old soul ring when he was at the sixth soul ring."
"I've lived for so many years, and you're the only friend and confidant I can confide in. I hope you'll think about it carefully. It's never too late to make a decision..."
Shen Hanyu laughed silently, his casual eyes slowly became sharper, the lazy aura on his body disappeared in an instant, replaced by an extremely cold spear intent that soared into the sky, as if even the space could not bear this energy, and it was even slightly distorted...
"Tian Meng, you still don't know me well enough. I am a person who loves life and fears death, so I put on a disguise. I don't think I live a hypocritical life. Instead, this is the most real way I face life. My life has been a life and death once since the moment I was born, but there will never be a second time, absolutely not!"
"Even God cannot take it away from me. What's mine is always mine. If I take a fancy to something that is not mine, it is mine. The Frost Sky Spear will pierce through all obstacles in my way. This is my path, a path that no one can stop!"
Tian Meng was stunned for a long time, and seemed to be shocked, but in the end, he showed a humane smile of relief on his face, and slowly returned to Shen Hanyu's spiritual sea without saying another word...
