Chapitre 106: [DD]: 106
Skydream looked at Han Li's smile with great anxiety but had no way out.
It first glanced at the surrounding environment and then looked at the three titled individuals who were isolated outside the domain, watching its every move like tigers eyeing prey. Gritting its teeth, Skydream said, "That's right, I begged you."
Under the eaves, the insect is at the bird's beak; it had no choice.
"Very good, a wise man submits to circumstances. Brother Skydream, you are indeed an outstanding soul beast."
Han Li smiled happily. He had ways to force Skydream to submit, but that would create a lot of commotion. Now, with Skydream willing to cooperate, it was naturally the best outcome.
"I will spare your life, but I need you to make a sacrifice for me."
Two extremely contradictory statements came out of Han Li's mouth, leaving Skydream stunned, and unable to understand what Han Li meant.
Han Li noticed Skydream's confusion and continued, "How much do you know about divine inheritance and the power of destiny?"
"Soul beasts cannot become gods. In the human world, the Spirit Hall supposedly possesses divine inheritance. As for the power of destiny, ever since I gained intelligence, I have only known about the knowledge related to the Auspicious Beast, but I have never seen it."
Skydream honestly revealed everything it knew.
"Very good. Since you know this, I don't need to explain much."
Han Li nodded with satisfaction, skipping over the explanation.
"As you know, the Spirit Hall indeed has a divine inheritance. Not only does the Spirit Hall have it, but I also have it. My name is Han Li, the current Holy Son of the Spirit Hall."
Han Li took out a token and threw it in front of Skydream, letting it examine it. He didn't care if Skydream recognized it or not; what he wanted to convey was his attitude.
"Not only do I have it, but I also have multiple divine inheritances."
As he spoke, a few strands of divine aura wrapped around them and flew in front of Skydream. Just the aura alone made it feel suffocated.
"At the same time, I can be considered the spokesperson of destiny among the current humans. You can think of me as the human equivalent of the Auspicious Beast."
"However, unlike the Auspicious Beast, I can directly manipulate fate and even modify or establish certain rules."
Han Li had his obedient son transmit the voice into Skydream's mind, and in Skydream's bewildered gaze, an identical image of Han Li condensed in its mental space, displaying the vision of fate.
In Skydream's eyes, the Han Li in front of it was shrouded in golden auspicious clouds, both on his body and above his head, with threads connecting everyone present, including Skydream itself, slowly improving their respective fortunes.
Its large mass of white fortune was now slowly transforming into red, albeit very slowly. The others had barely visible red, mostly wrapped in purple, with faint flashes of golden light.
Skydream tried to probe back and forth with its mental power but found no anomalies. It could confirm that this was not an application of mental power.
"I told you this to let you know that after you make a sacrifice to me, you will not die. Moreover, I can allow you to change your fate. How about it? Will you accept?"
In reality and Skydream's mind, two "Han Lis" spoke simultaneously, making Skydream's head buzz.
"I believe you. Can you please leave my mental space first? I'm not quite used to it."
Skydream recognized its position and proactively used respectful language.
Han Li nodded, and Skydream's mental space finally quieted down, its vision returning to normal. It became even more fearful of Han Li, though mixed with a hint of excitement.
"What is the opportunity to change fate that you mentioned? Of course, even if you don't want to answer, I will still make the sacrifice."
As the most cowardly beast, Skydream was very accustomed to adopting a low posture.
"I will allow you to retain your original body, including your soul and consciousness, and grant you the bloodline of a dragon and the Ultimate Ice attribute, transforming you into an Ice Dragon and making you the guardian of this place."
Han Li lightly tapped the ice armrest, looking at Skydream's joyful expression, and threw out another big incentive: "Moreover..."
He paused for a moment, waiting for Skydream to look at him with surprise before smiling: "When I become a god, I will allow you to follow me into the divine realm, enjoy eternal life, and be conferred as a divine beast."
Entering the divine realm, enjoying eternal life, and being conferred as a divine beast.
These words echoed continuously in Skydream's mind, making it almost unbelievable. The conditions Han Li offered were so generous that they seemed fake.
But Skydream couldn't help but ask, "Really?"
"You're already here. What benefit would I have in deceiving you?"
Han Li raised his hand slightly towards it. Skydream didn't dare resist, and as a result, it sensed the rules around it changing, seemingly enabling it to conduct the sacrificial ceremony directly.
Seeing its body tense up, Han Li lowered his hand again, smiling at it. "Now, do you have any other questions?"
"No."
Skydream shook its head with unusual firmness, completely unprepared to feel this way, as it didn't dare resist at all.
"Do you understand why I told you so much?"
Han Li raised an eyebrow, looking at the exceedingly obedient Skydream.
"I understand. You don't want to waste any energy. It's also my honor to be chosen by you."
Skydream's expression was exceptionally fawning, but its tone was very affirmative.
Hearing its answer, Han Li nodded with satisfaction, leaving some things unsaid so Skydream could infer them. This method was much more effective than directly telling it.
"Oh, I forgot to mention, once you become the guardian here, your growth rate will increase by more than tenfold."
Han Li stood up from the ice throne and walked down slowly, seemingly mentioning it casually.
Han Li dispersed the domain but didn't remove the protective water shield around his body. He then walked towards the trio, his back turned to Skydream.
Skydream's body trembled, understanding Han Li's hint. It quickly moved to his side, following behind him like a loyal lackey.
"Alright, Master, Martial Uncle, Granpa, you can withdraw now. I've finished talking with Skydream. It's one of us now."
Han Li greeted the three. The trio looked at Skydream, who was nodding and bowing to them, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Go fill up the hole you dug."
Han Li commanded Skydream unceremoniously.
"Okay."
Skydream responded quickly and burrowed into the tunnel it had come out of.
"Aren't you afraid it will run away?"
Guangling pointed to the hole, asking with some confusion.
"No worries, it won't run away, neither wants to nor dares to."
Han Li shook his head, smiling as he replied.
"It's your chosen seventh soul ring and is going to sacrifice itself to you?"
Dugu Bo also looked incredulous. From Skydream's expression, he could see it seemed quite elated. Were there still soul beasts eager to die these days?
"Because I promised it wouldn't die and offered some conditions."
Han Li casually explained, most of his attention still focused on the light spot in his mind.
Although he answered lightly, he wouldn't let his guard down until the final result was achieved. Sending Skydream to handle the passage was just a test.
At that moment, Skydream was already a kilometer away, but its spiritual power could still covertly cover this area. Naturally, Han Li wouldn't reveal the truth.
"Oh, I see. That makes sense."
The three nodded together and didn't ask further. They had all experienced sacrifices themselves and believed that Skydream's survival after the sacrifice shouldn't be a big problem.
After spending several years together, they had become numb to the various incredible things happening around Han Li. As long as they believed, it was enough.
Meanwhile, a kilometer away, Skydream paused for a moment before accelerating its work on the passage, quickly approaching the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
In just over a minute, Skydream re-emerged from the tunnel, putting on its endearing appearance again, and obediently returned to Han Li's side.
"After surpassing the million-year mark, what new abilities did you gain?"
Han Li suddenly turned his head and asked, as if making casual conversation.
He didn't know how Skydream broke through. He had initially planned to use the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to force it to reach a million years before the sacrifice.
"I didn't gain any new abilities."
Skydream, unaware of Han Li's thoughts, honestly replied, "For some reason, Di Tian and the others stopped persecuting me and even cautiously withdrew their aura."
"While I was forcibly escaping, a tiny green light spot floated out of a spatial rift. It was very small and disappeared after touching me. I felt very comfortable and then broke through. Using this power, I filled my body's deficiencies, burrowed underground, and escaped until today when I felt the ample energy here and dared to show myself."
"So, your soul power and spiritual power are now at their peak?"
Han Li squinted, confirming the situation.
A green light spot—Skydream was probably referring to the Life Gold. Skydream's head nodded rapidly, indicating its high value.
"Not bad."
Han Li casually responded but was internally calculating frantically on how to make full use of this energy.
Even with four external soul bones, the idea of absorbing all of Skydream's energy was daunting.
Looks like he'll have to take some risks. Han Li glanced in the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, formulating a plan.
He would need to confirm the scheme with his obedient son again to minimize the risks.
Unlike Huo Yuhao, he didn't want to carry a soul with him, so he would have to rely on external forces.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to see if some things were truly dead. He planned to use the rules to circumvent some of the hidden dangers, ideally resolving them completely.
