Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 51: Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, Bing Di (Ice Empress)

After a moment of silence, Huo Yuhao nodded. "Alright, I understand. But you need to hurry. The temperature here is too low. I have to constantly release soul power to protect myself. With my current soul power, I'm afraid I won't even last an hour."

"Heh heh, that's enough. It's already far beyond my expectations. Speaking of which, you really are a freak. With just under three rings of soul power, your depth is no less than a Soul Elder's."

"Tianmeng, let's hurry up and take care of business. We can talk about the rest after we leave this area." Huo Yuhao spread out his frozen little hands, saying helplessly.

Tianmeng nodded. Then, nine balls of golden light flew out from Huo Yuhao's body, heading straight for Tianmeng and merging with him. Tianmeng's form, which had seemed like it could dissipate at any moment, became much more solid as a result.

It turned out that those nine balls of golden light were Tianmeng's original energy sealed within Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea. Now that Tianmeng had even used this part of his power, it was clear how much importance he placed on the upcoming action.

Tianmeng's body slowly floated into the air. Seemingly deliberately, Tianmeng didn't suppress his aura this time. The terrifying pressure spread out in all directions without restraint. The surrounding soul beasts scattered in panic, some even collapsing to the ground, trembling and defecating.

Tianmeng ignored them, only gazing into the distance. After a moment, he spoke, "Bing Di, I know you've sensed my presence. I, Tianmeng, have returned for revenge! Do you dare to meet me?"

After he spoke, everything was quiet. No one responded to Tianmeng. Only the cold wind howled. But Tianmeng wasn't anxious at all. He simply floated there quietly, allowing the surrounding wind and snow to rage, unable to get close to him.

About ten breaths later, a streak of emerald light appeared on the horizon. At first, it was just a small dot, but in the blink of an eye, the emerald light streaked across the sky at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to comprehend. In an instant, it arrived in the high sky a hundred meters opposite Tianmeng.

Its arrival even dyed the entire sky emerald green, maximizing the special effects, and burning money.

Huo Yuhao below struggled to look up, only to see that the newcomer was actually a scorpion less than three meters long. The front of its body had four layers stacked, about half a foot long. The silver-white mouthparts opened and closed, flashing with a cold light. Hexagonal scales shimmered with a brilliant luster, covering its entire body, including its six slender and powerful scorpion legs.

But the most eye-catching thing was its lower body, ah spit, its back half. The long tail was composed of five segments, each segment resembling a rare gem. The segment closest to the lower body was the widest, becoming narrower towards the back. The tail hook at the top shimmered like a gem.

Words couldn't describe its beauty. Words like "exquisitely carved" and "marvel of workmanship" appeared in Huo Yuhao's mind. This scorpion was too exquisitely beautiful, unlike anything in the ecosystem.

"Tianmeng, you're actually alive, and you even came to my door. Hahaha, it really is true that Heaven never seals off all exits! Ah hahaha..." The scorpion actually spoke human language, and it was a female voice, clear and melodious.

Faced with Bing Di's undisguised hostility, Tianmeng's face was full of tenderness. "Bing'er, I'm back. Ten thousand years apart, have you ever missed me?"

Hearing Bing Di's harsh mockery, Tianmeng wasn't annoyed. His expression was still gentle and affectionate. "Bing'er, why do you need to ask knowingly? Calculating the time, you're not far from your great tribulation, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have knowingly walked into this trap."

"You're right. This is my last chance. If I can eat you, I'll have a 70% chance of surviving this great tribulation. But since you've taken the initiative to lure me here, you must have prepared something. Then let's see what you've got. I also want to know how much you've improved over the years to have the guts to appear before me."

"Bing'er, you're too heartless. Forget it, let's begin. After today, we'll never be separated again." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's eyes were infatuated, deeply affectionate. His feet moved slightly, stepping into the air and walking towards Bing Di.

Bing Di sensitively sensed that something was wrong and wanted to strike first, but she saw strands of golden light涌出 from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's body. The distance between the two at this time was only thirty meters.

Tianmeng's attack could be described as extremely fast. The golden light was fleeting, appearing in front of Bing Di in the blink of an eye, and binding her like silk threads. In just an instant, Bing Di's figure disappeared from the spot, replaced by a golden cocoon.

This wasn't over yet. After the golden light, there was also a white shadow following closely behind. Without seeing how, the white shadow directly entered the cocoon and then there was no movement. At least from Huo Yuhao's perspective, there was only the golden cocoon in place.

Tianmeng looked at his hands, feeling that he had the power to turn clouds and overturn rain at this moment. He murmured in his mouth, "This is the strength that a million-year soul beast should have. It would have been great if I had been so awesome back then."

After a moment of emotion, Tianmeng didn't dare to delay any longer, fearing that Bing Di's clansmen would find this place. He grabbed with one hand, and Huo Yuhao felt an irresistible force dragging him off the ground and flying towards Tianmeng.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's terrified appearance, Tianmeng was a little smug. "How is it? How do you feel? Are you satisfied with the soul ring I found for you?"

Huo Yuhao's Adam's apple bobbed, and he smiled wryly. "Tianmeng, I know you have a big appetite, but I didn't expect you to play it so big. Was that just now the Ice Jade Scorpion? And at least over 100,000 years old. Hearing you call her Bing Di, then she should be the Ice Jade Scorpion Empress, ranked second among the three great heavenly kings of the far north."

Tianmeng looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise. "Huh? How would you know? I don't seem to have told you this. Forget it, let's leave here first. Bing Di's clansmen must be going crazy." After saying that, Tianmeng waved his sleeve, taking Huo Yuhao and the golden cocoon and breaking through the air, heading in the direction they had come from.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's flying speed was naturally not comparable to Huo Yuhao's previous turtle speed. In just about half an hour, Tianmeng had already arrived at the outermost edge of the far north. A dozen kilometers further ahead, he could see human towns.

Tianmeng and Huo Yuhao descended from the sky, with the golden cocoon also in their ranks.

"Yuhao, I know you have many questions. You can ask them now." After landing, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm took the initiative to bring it up.

After a moment of silence, Huo Yuhao spoke, "I'll only ask you, what exactly is your purpose in coming here?"

"Alright, since you asked, then listen to me ramble for a few words. First of all, I still say the same thing, you and I are originally one, and I would never harm you no matter what.

As for the purpose, I want Bing Di to become the soul ring of your second spirit. The second spirit I brought to you hasn't really taken shape yet. You can understand it as an unhatched embryo. In this case, the first soul ring absorbed by your second spirit is crucial, because it determines the form and grade of your second spirit.

That is to say, if you absorb Bing Di's soul ring, then your second spirit will be fixed as the Ice Jade Scorpion." This time, Tianmeng rarely beat around the bush, telling everything in detail.

"I'm only at level 30 now. Bing Di has at least 100,000 years of cultivation. How can I absorb her soul ring?"

"Hehe, you don't know this, Bing Di is not just 100,000 years old. She has 390,000 years of cultivation, only one step away from entering 400,000 years, but you don't have to worry, aren't I an example?"
