Chapter 6 Becoming an Apprentice
Next, Huo Yutong performed the apprenticeship ceremony and became a disciple of Electrolux.
Di Tian didn't know much about Electrolux. According to his memories from the parallel world, Electrolux was the founder of Soul Spirit Technology. That alone was enough to make a deal with him.
"Regarding the rare and precious materials to nourish your soul, I will have the Demon King prepare them as soon as possible. As for the more detailed situation of this world, Tianmeng and Huo Yutong will explain it to you in detail," Di Tian said.
"Then I'll have to trouble you. I only have a wisp of my soul left, and I have no vessel. I need to reside temporarily in Huo Yutong's spiritual sea, which will make it easier for me to teach her," Electrolux said.
"I'm fine," Huo Yutong said.
"As long as you don't take my spot, it's fine. Lord Di Tian, half of the energy from those spiritual herbs was absorbed by... Electrolux. Could you give me some more?" Tianmeng asked.
"Okay." After saying that, Di Tian left the cave and told Di Qiu and Zi Ji, who were outside the cave, that they could go in. Then he went to find the King of Ten Thousand Demons.
"Raindrop, Raindrop, there are so many fun places in the forest! And who is that dark figure?"
"Young friend, my name is Electrolux, a trader of His Excellency Di Tian, and Huo Yutong's teacher."
Even Electrolux had to marvel at the aura emanating from Di Qiu, before turning his attention to Zi Ji, who entered shortly afterward, noting the intense hellish atmosphere.
It seems I've come to a good place. I've encountered so many powerful people right after waking up, including Tianmeng with her strong spiritual power, Biji with her abundant life force, and especially Ditian, who is not only stronger than he was in his previous life, but even stronger.
"All eyes are on me!"
The silkworm in Tianmeng's body emitted a ball of white light, enveloping her.
When the white light faded, a cute girl of 11 or 12 years old appeared. She had short, golden hair that reached her ears, bangs, big eyes, and a round face. She was wearing a white pajama with a silkworm-shaped hat, blue shorts, yellow and white striped socks, and white fluffy silkworm-shaped slippers. Clearly, this girl was the human form that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had created with her spiritual power.
"With a deafening roar in the sky, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm makes its dazzling debut!" Tianmeng proudly puffed out its chest, which was as straight as a sword.
"Sister Tianmeng, you're very pretty."
Tianmeng spun around triumphantly a few times.
"Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, could you tell me more about this world?" Electrox returned to Huo Yutong's spiritual sea.
Tianmeng then returned to her spiritual sea. "Don't worry, Xiaoyutong, I'll keep an eye on this guy," Tianmeng transmitted her thoughts using her spiritual power.
"Yutong, now you can come play with me!"
"sure."
Accompanied by Biji and Ziji, Huo Yutong and Di Qiu played around in the core area.
The core area of the Star Dou Great Forest is lush and green, rich in soul energy, and full of vitality.
"Qiu'er, let's rest for a bit," Biji said.
They found a shady spot under a tree and sat down to rest.
Huo Yutong wiped her sweat; her stamina wasn't as good as theirs.
Biji took out a water bag and a spirit fruit from her storage bracelet and handed them to Huo Yutong.
"Thank you." Huo Yutong thanked her and accepted the fruit, took a sip of water, and began to nibble on the spiritual fruit.
"Yutong, are you hungry? What would you like to eat?" Diqiu asked.
"Anything I can eat is fine."
"I'll go catch a few Soft-Boned Rabbits, how many can you eat?" Zi Ji asked.
"I want to eat the whole nest!"
"I have a small appetite; I can't even finish a whole adult rabbit."
Zi Ji left in a hurry. The Soft Bone Rabbit clan all lived in the outer area, so naturally Di Qiu couldn't be allowed to go to the outer area.
"Senior Brigitte, I haven't eaten the mushrooms from yesterday yet. I'd like to make some mushroom soup. Would you like some?"
"Okay, Huo Yutong, no need to be so polite. From now on, I'll call you Yutong, and you can call me Biji."
"That's right, you can call me Qiu'er from now on."
"OK."
Huo Yutong and Biji Diqiu gathered the branches, then took out the basket containing the spirit fruit and mushrooms from their storage soul tool yesterday, and took out a basin. They took out some of the mushrooms from the basket and went to a stream next to the shade of the tree to wash them.
Seeing her actions, Biji simply picked out all the spirit fruits and took the remaining basket of mushrooms to the stream to wash them with Huo Yutong.
After Huo Yutong finished washing the mushrooms, she took out a small knife and cut them up, removing the roots. Bi Ji handed her the mushrooms from the side.
They carried baskets and basins back to the shade of the tree, where Di Qiu had already eaten several spiritual fruits.
Murasaki moved quickly, returning with the ears of several freshly killed Soft Bone Rabbits in each hand.
Huo Yutong first put the mushrooms into the pot, then prepared the rabbit.
"What should we do with the rabbit?" Murasaki asked.
"Go to the stream, skin it, remove the internal organs, and wash away the blood."
Zi Ji carried the rabbit and Huo Yutong to the stream to help deal with it.
"You can just call me Zi Ji from now on."
"OK, thanks."
After processing, Huo Yutong took out the marinated rabbit.
Back at the campfire, Di Qiu, Zi Ji, and Huo Yutong ate roasted rabbit, and the four women drank mushroom soup and ate mushrooms together.
Huo Yutong was very happy. Although they were all soul beasts, they were all very friendly and kind, much better than the people in the Duke's mansion.
The day ended quickly, and outside Biji's cave, Huo Yutong bid farewell to Diqiu once again.
As for where Di Qiu's bodyguard, Chi Wang, was, he had been keeping watch from a distance. Because he looked scary and could easily frighten children, he was drooling with envy while they were roasting rabbits.
Within Huo Yutong's spiritual sea, the communication between Tianmeng and Electrolux had not yet ceased.
Tianmeng was a noisy silkworm. She had already talked about her birth and her encounter with Huo Yutong. She had also introduced a lot about the situation of human soul masters. Although she didn't know much, she also talked about the "God-Making Plan" and the fact that Ice Emperor would become Huo Yutong's second martial soul.
Of course, there were plenty of praises for Hyotei and "friendly greetings" to the Starry Sky gang of ferocious beasts.
Electrolux exclaimed that Tianmeng was truly a "polite" silkworm.
Electrolux already knows most of this world; this world can become a god!
But what intrigued Electrox even more was the relationship between humans and spirit beasts in this world. According to the laws of this world, humans and spirit beasts could only fight to the death.
Why did it evolve this way?
"By the way, Bingbing will be coming soon, Bingbing..." Tianmeng started praising Hyotei again.
"So, we need to divide the territory: this piece is mine, this piece is Bingbing's, and this piece is yours."
"I won't take up your space."
Electrolux drifted to a certain spot on its own.
As for Tianmeng, she was somewhat carefree, and he managed to piece together useful information from her endless ramblings.
Hyotei can only be judged after actual contact.
Electrolux also learned about Huo Yutong's situation from Tianmeng. Poor child... As a teacher, he had a responsibility to guide this child, and he didn't want Huo Yutong to be consumed by hatred. He wanted her to have a bright future.
Electrox is very much looking forward to this world; he's sure his necromancy and knowledge will spark some interesting ideas.
