Hyotei finally couldn't stand Tenmu Ice Silkworm's nauseatingly intoxicated expression anymore.

Her raised tail hook suddenly shone brightly, and a blindingly white beam of light shot out from the tip of the hook, instantly piercing through the body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which was formed from spiritual energy.

The golden light was pierced by the white light, but the beam did not dissipate. Instead, it began to spread and tear wildly inside the body.

Hyotei's icy voice echoed across the snowy plains: "I don't know what your schemes are, but since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, you must die."

"Having absorbed your energy, I am now the strongest soul beast on the continent."

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was pierced by the beam of light, yet its face showed no sign of pain.

It just sighed regretfully, its tone still gentle: "I wanted to chat with you a little longer, but it's better to hurry up."

Then its body suddenly became ethereal, transforming into a golden streak of light, and pounced towards Hyotei at an incredible speed. "Then, let's begin."

Soul beasts that have reached the Ice Emperor level in cultivation have developed an almost instinctive sense of danger.

She sensed something was wrong almost instantly and tried to back away quickly.

But at that moment, she suddenly felt everything around her become sticky, as if she had sunk into a bottomless swamp.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year-old spiritual power was like a vast ocean, trapping her within it, making every movement incredibly slow.

Furthermore, when she resists, the mental energy releases a strange power that directly dismantles her resistance from within.

This made her secretly alarmed: "What exactly did Tianmeng Ice Silkworm do during the time it disappeared?"

Chapter 89 The True God

This feeling enraged Hyotei, and his eyes instantly turned sharp as knives.

She swung her tail hook wildly, her long, emerald-green tail gleaming brightly, and violent ice-attribute soul power erupted like a volcano.

"Tianmeng, you're courting death! How dare you burn your spiritual energy like this? Aren't you afraid you won't be able to return to your original form?"

"Besides, with your meager skills, how long can you hold me captive? One second, or two seconds?"

Faced with Hyotei's anger, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled slyly.

“Under normal circumstances, there definitely wouldn’t be enough time, but with help, it’s possible.”

With the support of Huo Yuhao's chaotic divine power, his mental strength became even stronger.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm roughly estimates that it can trap Ice Emperor for at least one minute.

Of course, he didn't want to waste all his mental energy on this.

In that instant, a thin white film of light silently spread across the snow, gliding along the ground without making a sound.

Hyotei's entire attention was focused on the overwhelming spiritual power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and she was completely unaware of the inconspicuous light membrane beneath her feet.

By the time she realized something was wrong, it was too late.

The light membrane tightened abruptly the moment it touched her body, binding her tightly from head to toe.

Hyotei was taken aback. White and green light intertwined and flickered wildly on her body as she unleashed one powerful soul skill after another without reservation.

But no matter how much she struggled, the binding force not only did not loosen at all, but instead grew stronger and stronger.

The power carried a strange, oppressive force, as if it existed specifically to restrain her, causing her outer shell to emit a teeth-grinding crunching sound.

Her two front claws were pressed down inch by inch, and her raised tail hook was also pressed firmly against her back.

This Ice Emperor, one of the three great kings of the far north and who had roamed the ice plains for hundreds of thousands of years, was thus bound and unable to move, just like a butterfly caught in a spider's web.

"No, this is impossible!" For the first time, Hyotei's voice was filled with panic.

"Tianmeng, how could you, a piece of trash, possibly bind me! What kind of skill is this? Why can't even my strength break through it!"

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm did not answer; it simply raised its right hand and pointed gently at the Ice Emperor.

With a flash of golden light, Hyotei's body vanished into thin air.

"It's done!" Tianmeng Bingcan's face lit up with joy, and the next second she hurriedly shouted to Huo Yuhao, "Brother Hao, let's run! The Ice Emperor's people will be catching up soon!"

Huo Yuhao had already sensed several powerful auras approaching from afar at an astonishing speed, several of which were not much weaker than Bingdi's.

With his current strength, he might be able to put up a fight in a one-on-one situation, but facing a group of crazed ferocious beasts from the far north would not be a wise move.

He decisively withdrew the spiritual body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm back into his spiritual sea, and his figure transformed into a dark afterimage as he sped off towards the south.

At the same time, a wisp of chaotic power emanated from his body, spreading behind him like inky smoke.

This chaotic power completely disrupted and erased his remaining aura, ensuring that no tracker could find his trail by scent or mental imprint.

After running for nearly an hour, Huo Yuhao finally stopped.

In his perception, there was no longer any threatening aura within a hundred miles, and the group of pursuers had long been left behind.

He found a relatively secluded slope among a range of snow-covered hills, with his back against a thick ice wall, where the wind and snow were kept out, making it a natural haven.

"Alright, Tianmeng, let's leave it here." Huo Yuhao calmly instructed in his spiritual sea.

"Alright! Brother Hao, I'll release Bingbing right now!"

Tianmeng Bingcan's voice was full of eager excitement.

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light slowly floated out from between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.

At first, it was just a tiny golden dot the size of a pinhead. Then, the dot expanded outwards in concentric circles like ripples on water, and in an instant, it transformed into a golden disc about one meter in diameter.

The disc floated in mid-air, the light in its center gradually becoming ethereal and profound, as if connected to some indescribable space.

Looking up at it, it felt as if one were being sucked into that bottomless abyss.

With a flash of light, a figure emerged from the golden disc.

Immediately afterwards, the golden disc in the air rapidly shrank, transforming into a golden ball of light only the size of a fist, and flew back to Huo Yuhao's forehead, quietly hovering in mid-air.

What trapped the Ice Emperor was the remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, formed from its million years of cultivation.

This is its most precious essence, possessing extremely powerful binding force.

Each use of this item consumes the spiritual essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.

However, this time, with the assistance of Huo Yuhao's chaotic divine power, the consumption of the source has been greatly reduced.

Hyotei was trapped inside that small golden ball of light and began to struggle frantically.

White and green light intertwined fiercely on her shell, and her tail hook repeatedly struck the inner wall of the light orb, but it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, unable to even create a crack.

Her pair of crystal-yellow hexagonal eyes were filled with resentment and rage.

After realizing that she couldn't break free from this constraint no matter what, her gaze became like two poisoned ice blades.

First, she glared fiercely at Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, then turned to Huo Yuhao standing to the side.

"Tianmeng, you traitor!" Bingdi's voice was sharp and furious, filled with an overwhelming hatred of betrayal. "You actually cooperated with humans! You betrayed the Soul Beast race!"

The golden light emanating from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm flickered in mid-air, its tone still that of a playful jerk, showing no remorse for being insulted: "Hehe, I'm not a beast rapist."

"Besides, what's the point of betrayal among us soul beasts? We just kill each other and eat each other all the time."

"And Bingbing, this isn't betrayal, I'm trying to help you."

Its voice suddenly became more serious, and golden light flickered slightly, as if gesturing in Huo Yuhao's direction.

“Your time is almost up, and you have almost no chance of surviving the next tribulation. Therefore, I am offering you a new path.”

Upon hearing this, Hyotei let out a cold laugh, his laughter filled with contempt and mockery: "A new path? To make me a human's spirit ring?"

"It is indeed becoming a spirit ring." Huo Yuhao, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.

His voice was calm and composed, as if stating a perfectly ordinary fact, "But it is a different kind of soul ring. I can help you preserve your soul and live in my spiritual sea."

"Moreover, I can make you a god, freeing you from the limitations of being a soul beast, and granting you eternal life."

Chapter 90 Hyotei Gives in

Hyotei's crystal-yellow eyes turned to him, scrutinizing him from head to toe.

This human boy looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old. The fluctuations of his soul power were so weak that they were almost negligible, and he had not even reached the level of a Great Soul Master.

The last vestige of wariness in her eyes was instantly replaced by utter contempt, and she scoffed, "Make me a god? You? A mere human who isn't even a Great Soul Master?"

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm trembled violently in fright, and hurriedly spoke before Huo Yuhao could, fearing that this powerful figure would be angered and directly attack the Ice Emperor:

"Bingbing! Things aren't as simple as you think. Brother Hao definitely has the ability to help you become a god. Will you trust me this time?"

Hyotei didn't even glance at it, maintaining its utterly disdainful expression.

On the surface, she seemed to have given up the struggle, but in reality, she was secretly accumulating strength.

If she could break free from this constraint, she would freeze this arrogant human boy into an ice sculpture, and then tear that traitorous good-for-nothing Tianmeng to shreds.

Huo Yuhao looked at Bingdi's dark, flickering yellow eyes and shook his head slightly.

This attitude was within his expectations.

How could a Celestial King who has lived for countless years easily believe a promise made by a stranger in just a few words?

“She will never believe it if I tell her that.” Huo Yuhao’s tone remained calm, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him. “Then let her experience it for herself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao's eyes turned pure black in an instant.

The chaotic power flowed slowly deep within his pupils like two abysses, and a terrifying aura, completely different from before, suddenly spread from his body.

The snowflakes that were originally swirling around him were swept away by this aura and instantly lost their direction, spinning around in the air like headless flies.

Hyotei's movements, which were secretly gathering strength, suddenly froze.

Although she had never come into contact with this power before, the oppressive feeling that made her soul tremble instinctively was absolutely genuine.

Huo Yuhao raised his right hand and gently tapped the Ice Emperor with his index finger.

A chaotic, inky black power surged from his fingertips like a living thing, instantly enveloping Hyotei's entire body.

Before Hyotei could even retaliate, an even more terrifying power descended upon them.

That power was not immense, yet it was like the first thunderclap at the beginning of time, carrying a supreme majesty—it was divine power.

Faced with this divine power, her consciousness was as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, desperately pulled downwards, and irresistibly separated from her body.

"What's going on? Where...where is this?!" Hyotei looked around in a panic.
