Chapter 903: Silkworm Life · Scarlet_2

After all, the Demon Realm is also evolving, and there’s the blessing of the Celestial Dao from the angels. Once the Demon Realm is fully upgraded, the Spring of Life will eventually restore its original output.

Returning to Dongwu City.

With the black dragons in tow, Sabo eagerly helped settle two thousand black dragons, including the hatchlings, in Dongwu City.

He confidently assured that the dragons’ aura would not disrupt the city’s operations.

Baiyi knew Sabo’s intentions. Corrosion is a form of impurity, and for him, the corrosive aura emitted by the two thousand dragons was a rare cultivation ground.

Nevertheless, it was not a big problem. Baiyi was happy to let others help.

Strolling along the bustling streets of Dongwu City, Baiyi looked at Diane, whose eyes revealed fatigue: “You can take more rest.”

Diane was slightly taken aback. Her eyes, initially weary, turned gentle as she looked at the sky.

The spring sun was not glaring, only warm.

Diane flashed a smile.

Necromancers typically don’t like the sun, but Diane didn’t mind.

She shook her head: “No, the Dragon Race has arrived, and soon the Undead will be here. It’s a critical moment. With the help of these two races, you needn’t worry about the safety of Dawn; this busy period is just temporary.”

Baiyi paused briefly, not pressing further, merely holding Diane’s hand as they walked on: “But a couple of days wouldn’t make much difference…”

Noticing Baiyi’s hesitation, Diane smiled: “I missed you too.”

Baiyi hesitated briefly, the slight fatigue in his heart dissipating, as he led Diane light-heartedly into the crowd.

….

With Ulrich’s knowledge vault, the development of the new version of Silkworm Life was progressing swiftly.

The outline of the new Holy Descendant was becoming increasingly clear.

In the Dawn, the interactions between the Dragon Race and other races remained harmonious.

Especially some troublesome black dragons, who behaved more obediently after being surrounded by a group of transformed Holy Descendants.

The companions for the black dragon hatchlings were not a priority.

Or rather, the companions for the entire dragon hatchlings were not urgent. Trevony was gathering materials.

Even though it wasn’t a time of peace, the hatchlings were still the focus of each race’s attention.

The powerful have always existed through the ages, but hatchlings are forever the future.

Thus, before the youth potions were infused into the dragon hatchlings, the Dragon Race would not let the hatchlings face danger.

And half a month after the Dragon Race descended, just as Baiyi was preparing to start crafting the new version of Silkworm Life…

Some fluctuations drew Baiyi’s attention to the Abyss.

Some things set up in the past… had been triggered.

Even though the Lord of Scarlet was frantically searching for the Soul Dimension, the Soul Dimension belonged to a Great Level Ancient God, and was rare for being outside of Xia, and survived until the War of the New Gods before vanishing at the Mighty Level.

Finding its location was not easy.

During this period, Ma Fei·Silkworm Life had grown to the Legendary level, well cared for by Gne·Silkworm Life.

However, Ma Fei had the Crimson Origin within him, being the progeny of the Lord of Scarlet by blood.

Having grown to the Legendary level, Ma Fei’s existence now influenced the Destiny of the Lord of Scarlet.

The Lord of Scarlet was quite baffled at the moment.

After all, he was still dealing with the Embrace of Suffering, stubbornly wrestling with the Soul Dimension.

Out of nowhere, he had a child, a half-blood somehow related to the Abyss.

This would bewilder anyone.

However, the Abyss is not a realm that can be controlled by just any Ancient God.

The Abyss boasts abundant Mighty Divine Power, so he wanted to enter but couldn’t, leaving him to wander outside.

Peering into the Abyss, he unleashed some of his power to try and eliminate this rogue offspring from nowhere.

His power only made the previously stabilized Abyss more chaotic.

Numerous scarlet-corrupted entities and divine envoys appeared in the Abyss, rendering it particularly eerie.

As for why Abyssal Creatures could transform into divine envoys…

Isn’t this realm teeming with turncoats?

“Brother, how did I do?”

Ma Fei pointed to the ocean of corpses across the scarlet lands, asking earnestly.

Originally, Baiyi had designed Ma Fei’s character to be a not-so-bright tool, a role Ma Fei maintained well over the years.

In front of the Forbidden Level Gne, he was utterly obedient, going east if told to, going west if instructed, only defying orders when it came to food, and then getting beaten.

Gne looked at Ma Fei with some disdain: “You killed them all; where am I going to get information? Do you know why the Lord of Scarlet is pursuing us?”

Ma Fei scratched his head: “Uh… so what? Anyway, they never run out. When we wander around again, there are just as many as before.”

Gne: ….

He always suspected this guy was playing dumb, though he had no evidence, but never underestimated Ma Fei, contemplating more than once about trying to eliminate him.

But he couldn’t do that. If it were an ordinary Silkworm Life, it would be whatever, but here it was Silkworm Life·Scarlet.

Once he broadly understood Baiyi’s plan, he realized this was his only chance to become a God.

However, this opportunity had to be grasped well.

From the reaction of the Lord of Scarlet, perhaps he had also discerned something.

“You… never mind, let’s just keep it this way. They are after you, let’s lay low for a while.”

Gne waved and sighed deeply.

“Hide? Why hide? These guys are quite weak; I can take out a bunch with a punch.” Ma Fei continued, suddenly embarrassed: “Brother, when will you make another hammer for me? I liked that weapon, but unfortunately, the last one was too weak and broke after a few strikes.”

Gne: …

Watching this three-meter-tall, muscular Silkworm Life blush and act coy, Gne felt his aesthetic sense shatter.

Closing his eyes, stifling the urge to beat this guy,

Grabbing him, retreating, repeating to himself: This is a Divine Tier, a Divine Tier, an Abyss Divine Tier, can’t kill, can’t kill…

When a very subtle sense of being watched dissipated, Gne sighed in relief.

Glancing at the perpetually dark and scarlet firmament of the Abyss, his eyes flickered, could there really be… a Divine Tier?

—————–

Withdrawing his gaze.

Baiyi pondered slightly; acquiring a Divine Tier as Gne mentioned wasn’t entirely impossible.

In fact, this Divine Tier might be stronger than Gne imagined.

Currently, all sides were vying for this, and if the Lord of Scarlet had not laid many arrangements, he would likely fail.

Once the Mighty Divine Power-bearing Lord of Scarlet perishes, his body would be divided, though the survival rate of his consciousness is above 70%.

Without Great Level strength, no one could guarantee killing a Mighty Level being.

With no corporeal rules, if the Lord of Scarlet wanted a quick recovery, Ma Fei would be a highly suitable vessel.

Given the current pursuits’ understanding of Ma Fei, the likelihood of the Lord of Scarlet choosing this blood-related Silkworm Life as a vessel has greatly increased.

At least it became one of his choices.

If indeed chosen, during that time, should Gne devour Ma Fei, he could likely gain part of the Lord of Scarlet’s soul and rules.

Combining the Lord of Scarlet’s understanding of the scarlet through his memories, surpassing the mortal limit wouldn’t be a big problem anymore.

This could even be the threshold for the Ancient Gods’ Divine Tier.

As for why the Lord of Scarlet would follow such a plan to choose Ma Fei as a vessel…

Baiyi could never be sure; this was merely a pawn, useful if it worked, inconsequential if not.

But… it might have utility.

Because Baiyi just sensed Pu Sheng’s presence; that guy was eyeing both Silkworm Lives.

Now, for Baiyi, understanding these things suffices.

The specifics don’t matter much.

The pull of the Soul Dimension was immense.

Originally, it involved just a Calamity Object and a Weak Divine Power.

Now it’s become about two Calamity Objects, the Lord of Scarlet, the Seven Nether Gods, the Abyss, and Baiyi’s situation.

Pulling back his thoughts, Baiyi hoped the Lord of Scarlet would take longer to find the Soul Dimension. He only wanted the Soul Dimension itself; the rest was dispensable. However, even then, he needed to elevate the Dark Side to the apex of Intermediate Divine Power, if not the early stages of Mighty Divine Power.

Otherwise… he feared he couldn’t withstand it.
