Chapter 20 Library
Huo Yutong went to the library during her free time that day.
Shrek Academy's library is vast and boundless, with tall bookshelves arranged neatly, and each section categorized by nameplates: Martial Soul Theory Section, Soul Beast Section, Soul Tool Section, History Section...
After registering at the registration desk with her student ID, Huo Yutong went to the Martial Soul Theory Area.
Soul Masters and Soul Rings are closely related.
Huo Yutong picked up a book titled "Elementary Martial Soul Theory Foundations," in which the description of martial soul inheritance was simple, easy to understand, and accurate.
"Martial spirits are generally inherited from parents or ancestors... mutations." Huo Yutong thought to herself.
"An interesting conclusion," Electrox said. "From my observation of the laws of this world, this 'Martial Soul' is actually a manifestation of bloodline power."
So-called heredity is a stable bloodline inheritance; while mutation—" he paused, "is unstable. Yu Tong, borrow a few books about martial soul mutation for me later."
Hyotei joined the discussion, saying, "I am a genus-attributed individual, the only Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion in the clan. Both my parents are Ice Jade Scorpions, which can be considered a mutation."
Tianmeng chimed in, "I am the longest-living silkworm in the Ice Silkworm clan, so I gave myself a resounding name—Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. My existence is unique, and I can be considered a mutation."
Electrolux said, "The connection between martial souls and soul masters, the matching and resonance rules between soul rings and martial souls... all of these require a large amount of data on human soul masters. This data will help us study intelligent soul rings."
"So, we made the right decision to come here!" Tianmeng concluded.
In the past few days, Tianmeng, Electrolux, and Hyotei have also communicated and shared information with each other.
Regarding the Snow Empress, the Ice Empress still says she is in seclusion.
Electrolux also learned about the relationship between Tianmeng, Bingdi, and Xuedi. He realized that he was indeed an old man, although he was only a fraction of their age.
She loves her, she loves her, but the Snow Emperor has no lover... Lilies cannot bloom in the far north.
Electrolux: That's definitely a bit ahead of its time...
The thing Electrolux regretted most these past few days was reciting poetry in front of Tianmeng on a whim.
"Holding the sun and moon in my hands and plucking stars from the sky, there is no one like me in this world."
Poetry is a way for humans to express their emotions, and countless people have poured their insights into poetry…” Electrolux explained.
"I see, I understand now!" Tianmeng said.
"Bingbing, I wrote a poem for you, and its name is 'Ode to the Ice Emperor'."
Ah, Bingbing, you are so beautiful!
Your shell is so green!
You are so beautiful!
Even when she looks at me like I'm trash, she's still so beautiful!
Ah, Bingbing, I love you!
After enduring the poetry, Electrox had only one thought in his mind: if he were to hear Tianmeng compose a few more poems, his intelligence and aesthetic sense would probably be dragged down to the same level as hers.
As for Hyotei, her reaction was even more direct. The instant the demonic sound pierced her ears, a flash of emerald light appeared around her, and she instantly used her ultimate ice power to freeze herself into a lifelike ice sculpture.
...The recollection ends.
In the library, Huo Yutong picked up another book, "Detailed Explanation of the Ten Ferocious Beasts," which introduced the ten most ferocious beasts on the continent.
"Yutong, if you want to know anything, just ask your sister and Bingbing. Apart from Big Eyeball and Yaoyaoling, I know everything about them. Even humans can't possibly know more about those two than we do," Tianmeng said.
"I'm curious how humans see us," Hyotei said.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yutong opened the book. The book was introduced from back to front, starting with demon spirits. As Huo Yutong flipped through the pages, the three people in her spiritual sea were also reading.
Tianmeng kept criticizing the errors in the book. When she saw the illustration of Ice Emperor, she said, "The illustration is of Ice Jade Scorpion, not Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion."
"That's normal. Few humans have ever seen us, and even those who have seen us might not be able to draw a portrait. Little White is stronger than Atai, and humans don't even know that," Hyotei added.
Huo Yutong continued flipping through the pages, listening to Tianmeng's complaints.
When I turned to Biji's introduction, she was listed as the fourth of the Ten Ferocious Beasts, the patriarch of the Emerald Swan clan, and the most powerful healing-type soul beast known to date...
"I'm very curious about how Brigitte survived the Heavenly Tribulation. Even though she has the ultimate life attribute, how could a pure support character survive so many Heavenly Tribulations?" Ice Emperor said.
"Di Tian helped her withstand it. He helped her through all her heavenly tribulations. Thousands of years ago, she escaped during Bi Ji's 600,000-year heavenly tribulation. I have to say, Di Tian was really handsome back then!"
"Then came my sister's million-year tribulation. Di Tian had just finished protecting Bi Ji from the tribulation and was covered in injuries. He saw my sister's body being shattered by heavenly lightning, and only her soul remained. She took the opportunity to escape," Tian Meng said.
"That's double the Heavenly Tribulation!" Even though the Ice Emperor had already guessed, he was still taken aback when he found out.
Soul beasts face a near-death experience during the Heavenly Tribulation, let alone those undergoing a substitute tribulation. Substitute tribulations have occurred before, and they are double the Heavenly Tribulation, even if calculated based on the cultivator's cultivation level.
"Bingbing, if I can successfully overcome the tribulation for you and survive, will you stay with me?" Tianmeng asked.
"I will, but..." Hyotei said, and Tenmu knew what Hyotei didn't say.
"A soul beast's cultivation level is not the same as its age, so how long has Senior Di Tian lived?" Huo Yutong asked.
"It's possible that the other five ferocious beasts in Xingdou combined aren't as big as Di Tian. You know, apart from Bi Ji, they've all consumed my cultivation, but Di Tian only took one bite. At that time, he already had over 800,000 years of cultivation. If he were to consume my cultivation again, it would be impossible for him to have his 900,000-year Heavenly Tribulation come sooner."
Oh, right, there's a terrifying being at the bottom of the Lake of Life. I heard Di Tian refer to it as "Master"...
"Although it is the master, the stars are under the control of Emperor Tian, and they haven't appeared for hundreds of thousands of years. My sister asked Bi Ji, and she said that she followed Emperor Tian 250,000 years ago," Tian Meng said.
"Fifty thousand years ago, Di Tian came to the far north. At that time, Xue'er asked him, 'Do you want to become the ruler of the soul beasts?' He replied that there was another beast as the ruler of the soul beasts, and he was just her subordinate. Later, he fought a great battle with Xue'er... and successfully passed through the far north to fly to the ocean."
"I'm very curious. Since that being is the master, why does 'Beast God' refer to Di Tian? This is itself an overstepping of authority. Does that being know this or not?" said the Ice Emperor.
"It's all just speculation anyway," Electrox said.
Huo Yutong silently thought that if that being wanted to kill Senior Di Tian, she would definitely kill it.
If any human wanted to make Di Tian, Bi Ji, Zi Ji, or Di Qiu their soul rings, she would kill them.
Then Huo Yutong borrowed several books on martial spirit theory and a few books that interested her, and took them back to her dormitory to read slowly. She was quite interested in the marital relationships of spirit beasts.
Different races of soul beasts have different marriage systems, including polygamy, monogamy, polyandry, and even same-sex or inter-species relationships... Senior Tang San's wife was also a soul beast, and Senior Tang San himself was the son of Haotian Douluo and Blue Silver Emperor.
As for that man... he's an irresponsible bastard. She's already thought of dozens of ways for him to die. You could say she's considered every possible way he could die. She's also thought of the Duchess and Dai Huabin. She will definitely reunite them as a family.
