Chapter 35 Even the Dragon King's Daughter Is Dreaming
Starry Sky Forest, beneath the Lake of Life.
In the vast and deep underground space, dim light filtered through the glowing moss in the cracks of the dome, shrouding the entire cavern in a hazy yellow hue.
At this moment, several figures gathered here.
At the center is a giant white silkworm that is bound hand and foot.
The white silkworm is enormous, several meters long, and entirely white with golden stripes covering its body, giving it a faint luster in the dim light.
It was entangled by several thick vines, firmly fixed in mid-air, unable to move at all.
Even though it was tied up like that, the white silkworm still wouldn't behave.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
Tianmeng's voice was pitiful, and her round body struggled constantly, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"I'm warning you! I'm a million-year-old soul beast! A million years old!"
"Thirty thousand years east of the river, thirty thousand years west of the river, and you treat me like this? When I finally escape, I'll take you all down, one by one... I'll take you all down..."
As it spoke, its voice grew softer and softer, weaker and weaker.
Because a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe with gilded dragon patterns was slowly walking towards it.
Emperor Tian.
Di Tian frowned slightly as he indifferently gazed at the unruly white silkworm before him with his golden vertical pupils.
With a raised hand, a huge black dragon claw appeared out of thin air and grabbed the round body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
The dragon claws slightly closed and exerted force, and Tianmeng's howl came to an abrupt halt.
"I was wrong!"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm decisively admitted defeat, her voice changing from pitiful to obsequious, as quickly as if she had rehearsed it countless times.
Di Tian glanced at it indifferently, withdrew his dragon claw, and turned to walk away.
Some time ago, he went out on his own to investigate the source of the aura of the Golden Life Force that suddenly erupted at the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
As a result, they didn't find the Life Gold, but on their way back, they unexpectedly discovered the large white silkworm that had previously escaped in the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
It was an unexpected bonus.
Although the enormous energy within the ice silkworm, which had been lucky enough to sleep for a million years, had been almost completely absorbed by them long ago.
However, the opponent's million-year-old essence is a great tonic for both soul beasts and humans.
Unfortunately,
Di Tian's gaze swept over all the ferocious beasts present.
These ferocious beasts, having absorbed the energy of this ice silkworm over the years, have all reached a certain limit in their cultivation, but are currently still within the range that can be suppressed.
However, if we continue to absorb the essence of this ice silkworm, we will eventually lose control. When we reach the critical point, a heavenly tribulation will descend, and no one will be able to withstand it.
Therefore, this ice silkworm will be kept as a reserve food for future generations.
As Di Tian was thinking, he suddenly paused slightly.
A familiar aura rose from not far away, carrying a pure elemental aura and an undeniable majesty.
Di Tian's expression instantly turned solemn.
He turned around, knelt down on one knee in that direction, and his posture was extremely respectful.
"My lord."
At the same time, the surrounding ferocious beasts, including Biji, Xiong Jun, and Wan Yao Wang, also reacted and knelt down, burying their heads very low.
There, a massive figure slowly revealed itself.
It was a giant dragon.
Its entire body is silver, and its body is enormous. Every scale gleams with a cold and dazzling silver metallic luster, making it resemble a cold silver moon in this dim underground space.
Those dark purple eyes glanced at the group of ferocious beasts, their gaze lingering briefly on the large white silkworm that was bound hand and foot before casually moving away.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm trembled even more violently, probably because it had shouted too loudly and offended this creature. The entire silkworm dared not even breathe.
Di Tian knelt on the ground and respectfully asked, "My lord, is there any order?"
"Nothing, just came out to take a look," the silver dragon said calmly.
Di Tian nodded, asked no further questions, and remained kneeling, watching the dragon's figure disappear.
The giant dragon ascended upwards, its massive body passing through the dome of the underground space and plunging into the waters of the Lake of Life. Soon, the lake surface rippled slightly, and the silver dragon burst forth from the water.
A silver light covered the enormous dragon's body, and in a flash, the dragon's body rapidly shrank and transformed into a silver-haired, purple-eyed girl.
The girl had an exquisitely beautiful face and skin so white it was almost translucent. Paired with a long, silver-white dress that reached her ankles, she exuded a cool and aloof aura, like the cold moon in the depths of winter, making her unapproachable.
She stepped barefoot onto the soft grass beside the Lake of Life, her gaze shifting to the side, where she spotted a large golden cat lazily lying on the grass, basking in the sun and sleeping.
Sensing someone approaching, the three-eyed golden lion groggily opened its eyes, and upon seeing who it was, it immediately snapped back to reality.
"My Lady, my sister!"
The three-eyed golden lion exclaimed in surprise, and was about to get up when it saw the girl already beside it, slowly sitting down against it.
The three-eyed golden lion immediately stopped moving, obediently lying down and acting as a cushion.
Leaning against the three-eyed golden lion, the girl felt the furry, sun-warmed touch behind her. Her posture was relaxed, but she was not sleepy at all.
There's nothing I can do; she's been having just too many dreams lately.
The dreams she had were all the same, scenes from when she was asleep.
Logically speaking, one should have no perception or memory during a deep sleep; those times should be a blank for any being.
But she dreamt of it, her consciousness appearing in the sleeping dragon's body, watching another version of herself sleeping silently, everything so clear it was as if it were happening right now.
You should know that dreams are the ripples of the soul, and her soul, in a state of severe injury and deep sleep, should have been instinctively repairing its own injuries little by little, and would not have had any spare time to dream.
But she was dreaming.
Moreover, she was experiencing these dreams unusually frequently, so frequently that she could no longer peacefully sleep and recover from her injuries.
Obviously, something must have gone wrong here.
But no matter how she examined herself, she couldn't find anything unusual.
If you disregard the injuries inflicted on her by the five god-kings, she could even be considered healthy.
The normality of all this makes the abnormality all the more glaring.
But today, her dream was a little different.
In the past, her dreams were just fragments of her own sleep, but in this dream today, she dreamt that she had been asleep for several years.
Before she finally woke up, she felt a very clear gaze upon her, as if the scales on her body were being peeled away layer by layer, leaving nothing behind...
The girl sighed unconsciously, feeling a headache coming on from these strange dreams she was having.
She opened her dark purple eyes, her gaze shifting to the distant horizon.
There, she could sense a special realm.
It was a realm that even she couldn't see through, seemingly completely enveloping and covering that world.
The girl gently shook her head and looked away.
These are truly turbulent times.
