Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao, the villain from a parallel world

Snow Empress turned to look at Ice Empress, her gaze meeting those crystal-yellow eyes.

There was no fear or resistance in Hyotei's eyes, only a sense of reassurance and a faint hint of anticipation.

Xue Di withdrew her gaze and looked at Huo Yuhao again. The last layer of defense in her ethereal sky-blue eyes finally faded away.

"Let me see what Bing'er has seen."

Huo Yuhao was not surprised at all. Such a request is both human nature and animal nature.

He nodded slightly and said only four words: "As you wish."

Chaotic divine power erupted in an instant. The inky black light, like an invisible pillar piercing through heaven and earth, abruptly pulled the Snow Emperor's consciousness into that broken yet majestic spiritual world.

That towering, divine figure; that divine might that made even the soul tremble instinctively; that supreme aura that resonated with the laws of the entire world.

Huo Yuhao held nothing back and showed Xue Di everything he had shown Bing Di back then, exactly as it was.

When Xue Di's consciousness was returned to reality, the shock lingered in her sky-blue eyes for a long time.

She finally understood why Hyotei's attitude had changed so drastically in such a short time.

The oppressive force that had nearly suffocated her just now, that absolute suppression from the depths of her soul, was something no ordinary being could possess.

The young man before me had never uttered a single falsehood.

In that instant, the huge weight that had been pressing on her heart finally lifted off her feet.

"Alright." The Snow Empress's voice wasn't loud, but it was as firm as an ice peak that had never melted for millennia. "I promise you. I will merge with you and become your martial soul."

The moment the words fell, Hyotei's entire body visibly relaxed, and her crystal-yellow eyes revealed undisguised joy.

Huo Yuhao also revealed a satisfied smile. Of the two Northern Heavenly Kings, one would become his Martial Soul, and the other would become his Soul Ring.

All objectives of this trip have been achieved.

"In that case, let's not delay and begin the fusion now," Huo Yuhao said.

Xue Di nodded slightly, then revealed a rare look of bewilderment: "Then... what should I do?"

The matter of becoming a human's martial soul was completely unknown to her.

In her nearly 700,000-year lifespan, she never imagined that she would one day face such a choice, let alone understand the specific steps involved.

"Tianmeng, come out." Huo Yuhao called softly. "This is your plan, and you should have a complete implementation plan."

The next second, a golden light shot out from Huo Yuhao's forehead, spun twice in the air, and then reformed into the cheeky appearance of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

The humanoid figure formed by the golden light was exactly the same as Huo Yuhao, except that the light on its body was even more dazzling than before.

It first nodded respectfully to Huo Yuhao, then turned to Xue Di, its face beaming with a smug smile.

Her tone carried an undisguised pride: "Hehe, hello Snow Empress, I am Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, you can just call me Tianmeng from now on."

"This method of fusion is exactly what I prepared for Bingbing back then, but unfortunately it's being used on you now."

Xue Di looked at the humanoid figure formed from golden light before her. Although her smile was still somewhat frivolous, the spiritual energy emanating from it was genuinely at the million-year level.

She sighed softly, her tone tinged with emotion: "I never imagined that you, who have survived to this day by sleeping, would have such an opportunity."

Chapter 94 Seven Hundred Thousand Years Old Torso Bones

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm scratched its head, its smile growing even more smug: "Who says otherwise?"

Then it put away its playful expression and began to explain the steps of fusion in detail.

Huo Yuhao listened quietly and nodded slightly. With a thought, Electrolux in the depths of his spiritual sea quietly opened his gray-white eyes.

Although this remnant soul from another world rarely speaks, Electrox's experience in soul fusion is far unmatched by anyone.

With him safeguarding this integration, the chances of success have increased even further.

After Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finished explaining, she asked seriously, "Snow Empress, that's the whole process. Do you need more time to prepare? After all, once you start, there's no turning back."

Upon hearing this, Xue Di simply shook her head calmly.

She turned around, her gaze slowly sweeping over the far northern core ice field she had guarded for countless years.

The snow continued to fall silently, and the wind echoed between the glaciers like an eternal sigh.

She was born on this land, reigned on this land, and almost met her end on this land.

Today, she is giving herself up completely, not to submit, but to find a new way to survive.

She withdrew her gaze and looked at Huo Yuhao again, her sky-blue eyes no longer showing any hesitation: "No need, let's start now."

After Xue Di finished speaking, she said no more.

Her sky-blue eyes slowly closed, and her slender arms gently spread out, as if embracing the icy world she had protected for hundreds of thousands of years.

The next instant, a burst of icy white energy erupted from her body. The light was so pure that it seemed to have melted all the ice crystals that had condensed in the far north over millions of years into this beam of light.

Where the light passed, the air froze into frost, and the falling snowflakes were frozen in mid-air. The whole world seemed to stand still for a moment.

The icy white energy, like a dazzling galaxy, surged towards Huo Yuhao and crashed heavily into his chest.

Huo Yuhao felt an indescribable surge of extreme cold power instantly enter his body.

The chill was several times colder than the ancient ice of the far north, freezing the meridians inch by inch wherever it passed, and making the blood seem to freeze into ice crystals in the veins.

If it were an ordinary Soul Master, this single blow would be enough to freeze them into an ice sculpture.

However, the chaotic power within Huo Yuhao's body reacted almost simultaneously.

The inky black light trembled gently in his meridians, and the extreme cold was quietly disintegrated and assimilated, transforming into strands of pure energy that flowed into his limbs and bones.

Absorbing the Snow Emperor's nearly 700,000 years of cultivation was not a difficult task for him.

His spiritual sea is vast, its capacity far exceeding that of this far northern ice plain.

Even if the Snow Emperor's energy is as vast as an ocean, it is merely pouring a pool of water into an even larger ocean.

The icy white light emanating from Xue Di grew stronger and stronger, gradually becoming dazzling from its initial gentleness.

The surrounding ice and snow seemed to be summoned by something, and began to gather wildly around her.

Within a few short breaths, the wind and snow within a radius of a thousand miles transformed into a massive vortex of ice and snow.

Countless white dragon-like snow pillars rose from the ground, spinning rapidly around the two of them, emitting a roar like the cry of ten thousand beasts.

The core area of ​​the far north trembled violently under the influence of this force, and the soul beasts on the periphery looked toward the core in fear, but none of them dared to approach.

Hyotei looked up at the swirling ice and snow that blotted out the sky, then glanced at the Snow Empress's figure, which was gradually blurring in the light.

A complex emotion flashed in her crystal-yellow eyes, and then she transformed into a streak of emerald light and sped away towards the outer perimeter: "I'll go and keep watch around to prevent any soul beasts from getting close."

The golden light of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm dared not stay in the fusion center any longer and hurriedly retreated back into Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

Although it is usually unreliable, it dares not relax its guard at this moment.

He mobilized all his mental energy, carefully guiding Xue Di's energy to flow through Huo Yuhao's body along the predetermined route.

Just as the icy vortex reached its most violent moment, the light emanating from the Snow Emperor suddenly receded.

All the released energy flowed back like the receding tide, condensing into a single point at her chest.

That single point of light was dazzlingly brilliant, like a miniature, ice-white sun.

At the heart of the light, a crystal-clear skeleton was slowly taking shape.

It was a torso bone, formed from the essence of the Snow Emperor's nearly 700,000 years of cultivation.

The skeleton is entirely white like snow, with fine ice-blue patterns flowing across its surface, each pattern seemingly sealing in a glacier from the far north.

After the torso bones took shape, they slowly floated towards Huo Yuhao, and the moment they touched his chest and clothes, they turned into a stream of light and entered his body.

The next second, Huo Yuhao clearly felt that his original torso bones were being peeled away layer by layer and replaced inch by inch by this force.

That was excruciating pain that could drive anyone mad.

The feeling of bones being forcibly ripped away is like a thousand blunt knives scraping inside the body at the same time; every nerve is screaming, and every inch of bone marrow is burning.

Huo Yuhao's face turned deathly pale in that instant, veins bulged on his forehead, and his whole body trembled slightly, but only for a moment.

His expression returned to calm in the next moment, as if the excruciating pain he had just felt was merely a gentle breeze.

In his long path of revenge in his previous life, he had struggled on the edge of life and death countless times.

In the final battle against Tang San, he personally ignited his own divine position, burning his divine soul and body to ashes.

The pain of turning one's entire existence into fuel, the despair of seeing one's soul turn to ashes inch by inch, is a thousand times, ten thousand times more tragic than having a bone replaced.

This pain is nothing to worry about.

The moment the torso bones were completely replaced, Xue Di's body became almost transparent.

She opened her sky-blue eyes and took one last look at Huo Yuhao.

The initial coldness and defensiveness in his eyes were gone, as were the subsequent hesitation and struggle; there was only a kind of peaceful calm.

She nodded slightly, and then her entire body transformed into a pure, icy-white mist, gently merging into Huo Yuhao's chest like snowflakes scattered by a spring breeze.

A brand new martial soul is slowly taking shape within Huo Yuhao's body.

The surrounding vortex of ice and snow suddenly contracted at that moment.

Countless rotating snow pillars, as if summoned by some irresistible force, surged toward Huo Yuhao from all directions, enveloping him layer upon layer.

Snowflakes piled up around him, condensing and soon forming a giant ice cocoon.

The ice cocoon was over ten feet tall, crystal clear, with icy blue light patterns flowing across its surface. In the dim light of the far north, it looked like a star left behind on the snowfield.

Chapter 95 Ice and Snow Maiden Martial Soul

Inside the ice cocoon, Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, the icy white light and the chaotic black power within his body slowly intertwining.

The two forces, one cold and the other unpredictable, should have been incompatible, but under the silent gaze of those grey-white eyes deep within his spiritual sea, they gradually found a balance of coexistence.

The giant cocoon stands silently in the center of the far north core area, like a sleeping life waiting for the moment of breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn.

Time seems to lose its meaning in the far north.

It is unknown how much time has passed, but the violent fluctuations in the core area have long since subsided.

The blizzard has once again covered the land in its timeless white, as if nothing had ever happened.
