Chapter 79 Ice Emperor
The far north.
"I was worried about whether you could last long without the protection of your remains..."
Looking at Huo Yuhao huddled in the ice house, Tianmeng was at a loss for words. She swore she hadn't told Huo Yuhao about the itinerary for today's trip beforehand. "Is the power of destiny that strong? It can even see things like this?"
At this moment, Huo Yuhao was huddled inside a hemispherical igloo with a radius of one meter, relying on a small portable heater for a meager amount of heat.
The igloo wasn't carved out by Huo Yuhao; it was pre-made and frozen inside a soul tool.
"Sister Tianmeng, stop rambling and hurry up!"
Even with the stove, the temperature inside the igloo was much higher than outside, but it was still minus ten or twenty degrees Celsius!
"knew!"
As she spoke, Tianmeng began to draw upon her own essence, which she had sealed within Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, and nine golden rays of light emerged one after another from between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.
As the seal loosened, Huo Yuhao's spiritual eye was also released on its own initiative. The only pure white soul ring resonated with the golden origin and transformed into a true golden million-year soul ring.
Finally, the golden light condensed into a golden figure in the air, and a thought emanated from the golden figure, rapidly spreading in all directions:
"Hyotei, I know you sensed my presence. I, Tenmu, have returned. Do you dare to appear before me?"
A bright green light appeared on the horizon, gradually covering the entire sky like the rising sun.
"Tianmeng, you're still alive! No wonder you're the longest-living person in our far north." A clear voice rang out. Although the voice wasn't loud, it formed a terrifying sound wave that swept across the snow, raising wisps of snow mist.
"You're not dead yet, so how could I die before you?" Tianmeng calmly blocked the sound wave with her mental power.
Although he himself was not afraid, Huo Yuhao's small frame could not withstand the aftershocks.
"It's been ten thousand years, but your use of mental power has improved quite a bit."
With a flash of emerald light, a green figure appeared in front of the golden figure, looking at the golden figure with a playful expression.
"Who gave you the courage to come jumping around in front of me after barely escaping death?!"
A 1.5-meter-long, emerald-green scorpion, yet...
"It's been ten thousand years, and you're still so beautiful!" Tianmeng gazed at the figure before her, who looked like a finely sculpted gemstone, with fascination.
"If you look at me like that again, I'll pierce your thieving eyes!" The playfulness in Hyotei's eyes vanished, replaced by anger as she stared at the golden figure before her. The emerald green scorpion tail was raised high, its sharp stinger gleaming with a dangerous light.
"They're all females, it won't hurt me to look at them a few times..."
Before Tianmeng's voice had even faded, a white ray shot out from the tail needle, piercing through Tianmeng's figure formed from spiritual power. However, it did not pass through the wound; instead, it continued to spread from the wound, frantically destroying the body formed from spiritual power.
"We finally managed to meet, and I was hoping to chat a bit longer, but you attacked me without warning. Is this how you treat an old friend?"
Tianmeng looked at the emerald green figure in front of her with some grievance, silently reorganizing her spiritual energy source and shaking off the force that was constantly destroying her spiritual energy.
"Who said you're an old friend?" Hyotei's disdain vanished, replaced by a faint seriousness.
Ten thousand years ago, Tianmeng could not have so easily deflected this attack.
"Tianmeng, don't think that just because you've hidden your true form and are only using your mental energy to simulate a physical form to see me, I won't be able to find your true form. When my people arrive, they'll use Ice Explosion to turn over the entire land within a thousand miles, and sooner or later they'll be able to blast your true form out."
Even when Hyotei is threatening, they're still so adorable.
Tianmeng smiled slightly upon hearing this, completely unconcerned about Bingdi's threat: "The last time I saw you, your tail had six segments, but now it has fused into five! It seems my memory is correct; you are not far from your end. How about it, are you confident in surviving the 400,000-year tribulation?"
"You've hidden yourself so well all these years, and this sudden return is just to get yourself killed?"
"No matter what your schemes are, once I completely absorb your source power, I will be the strongest soul beast. What does a heavenly tribulation matter then!"
Although Hyotei appeared disdainful, his body was actually tense, ready to pounce.
She didn't believe that Tianmeng had returned to the far north after ten thousand years just for sightseeing.
"Of course I came back to help you survive. You spared me back then, so naturally I won't stand by and watch you die under the lightning."
"In that case, offer up your very essence!"
As he spoke, he made a move to pounce on the golden figure in the air.
"I wanted to chat a little longer... Oh well, there's plenty of time to chat later, so a little more won't make a difference."
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure formed from his spiritual energy suddenly became ethereal, completely enveloping Hyotei's body.
"Are you crazy?!" Hyotei's eyes turned serious and sharp in an instant, and his body shone with a bright green light.
"Using your mental power like this, aren't you afraid your consciousness will never be able to return to your body?"
Hyotei couldn't understand why Tenmu would take such a big risk just to trap her for a breath or two.
Hyotei soon found out the answer.
A white light membrane appeared silently and crept over, completely enveloping her while she was unable to resist. Her raised front claws were gradually suppressed, her upturned tail hooks were pressed tightly against her body, and her six pairs of short legs were locked tightly, making her completely unable to move.
"No, no, this is impossible. Tianmeng, how could you, a piece of trash, possibly restrain me? What kind of ability is this? Why can't even I break free?"
Hyotei never expected that the guy who couldn't even figure out how to use ice back then would have the power to threaten her in just ten thousand years!
Is this still the same guy who wasn't even as good as a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast?
"Why is it impossible? I'll explain it to you slowly later, but for now, we should go."
The golden light receded and reformed into a human form. Tianmeng waved her right hand at Bingdi, and Bingdi's body disappeared, leaving only a white light membrane.
The light membrane was directed to penetrate the ground and tremble inside Huo Yuhao. Tianmeng pulled Huo Yuhao out, who was relieved, and then withdrew her original energy and merged it back into Huo Yuhao's body!
"The Hyotei clan sensed the disappearance of Hyotei's aura and will surely find us soon. We must leave here as quickly as possible!"
"Tenmeng, what exactly is going on between you and Hyotei?"
While on the run, Huo Yuhao didn't forget to watch the drama unfold.
In the original work, Tenmu was a pervert, but it turns out that Tenmu in this world is a girl. Although she has toned it down a lot, judging from her previous behavior, Tenmu is still obsessed with Hyotei.
"You mean this...?"
……
"You all stay here and don't move. I'm going in to take a look."
A few days ago, a clansman reported that he had discovered what appeared to be traces of the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave. The Ice Emperor immediately led his trusted confidants to investigate.
However, as the investigation progressed, the Ice Emperor discovered that the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Cave had been invaded by someone else, and almost all of the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow inside remained.
In particular, it exuded a special aura that subtly put pressure on Hyotei.
This made the Ice Emperor hesitant to let his clansmen with lower cultivation levels go in to explore, and he ultimately chose to go in alone.
In the center of the empty cave, a pale white figure lay straight down.
Hyotei concealed his presence and cautiously approached, finally reaching a distance close enough to probe the opponent's strength.
This is... the Ice Silkworm Clan, which has no fighting ability whatsoever?
She was certainly familiar with ice silkworms; ice silkworms were the most common food for the Ice Jade Scorpion clan.
Looking at this creature, whose size was completely incomparable to that of a normal ice silkworm, Hyotei's lips twitched slightly.
Why is it that this guy is so lucky to fall into the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Cave and even successfully absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow inside?
Based on the energy fluctuations sensed, this ice silkworm probably has nearly a million years of cultivation.
With such immense energy, if I were to devour the opponent and completely digest its essence, wouldn't I become the strongest soul beast?
Thinking of this, Hyotei's pincers couldn't contain themselves any longer.
"No, no... It's a rule set by the Snow Empress herself that we shouldn't prey on awakened intelligent soul beasts... Oh well, let's just let this guy have it."
Hyotei sighed and silently stayed by the guy's side, waiting for him to wake up.
It shouldn't take long, right?
"Hmm~" In the empty cave, Tianmeng, who had been sleeping for who knows how long, leisurely opened her eyes. "I slept so comfortably~"
"Hmm?" Tianmeng was suddenly stunned, as if she sensed the enormous power within her body. This power was probably even greater than the ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts she had seen before.
Looking at the surrounding ice walls, Tianmeng remembered that when she fell into this cave, it wasn't this big. The ice blocks, full of spiritual energy, had completely disappeared...
At that time, she was forced into a deep sleep because she could not withstand the corrosive power of extreme cold. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she had absorbed this power.
Feeling the immense ice-attribute power within her, Tianmeng felt confident that she could even contend with the ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts she had encountered before!
"You're awake? Little one?"
Suddenly, a clear, crisp sound rang out, echoing through the empty cave.
Tianmeng's body suddenly stiffened.
She sensed the presence of a predator...
"I'm here, little one..." A clear voice rang out behind Tianmeng.
Tianmeng suddenly turned around, only to find nothing behind her.
"Who! Who's playing tricks here!"
"Come out! You come out here right now!"
"No fun," a clear voice rang out again, and with a flash of emerald light, an emerald green figure appeared behind Tianmeng.
It was a large, bright green scorpion, about 1.5 meters long!
"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore!" The giant scorpion waved its right pincer, turning the insect in front of it around.
"ice……"
