As time passed second by second, Huo Yuhao's spine and ribs all emitted an emerald-green glow, signifying that the soul bone fusion was nearing completion. At that very moment, the dark-gold orb of light in Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Space finally stirred.
"Hmm?"
The sudden change immediately drew Huo Yuhao's attention. He had completely unlocked the Greed Original Sin over a month ago, yet he had never discovered what it did.
The next second, the dark-gold orb of light separated off a glob of energy fluid of the same color. After leaving Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Space, it shot toward the soul bone that was in the midst of fusing.
From Snow Empress's perspective, she saw a dark golden light suddenly flare from Huo Yuhao's forehead before flowing, not particularly quickly, toward the torso bone in his chest.
"This is... fusion?"
Huo Yuhao furrowed his brows. Through inner vision, he clearly saw that after the Greed Original Sin joined in, the previously emerald-green Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion torso bone began to flash alternately with emerald-green and dark golden light, as though it were breathing.
During this process, the two lights blended together like milk and water, slowly beginning to merge.
About a minute later, the entire torso bone had taken on a deep green-gold hue. Realizing the fusion was complete, Huo Yuhao instinctively examined it with his Spiritual Power.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's eyes gradually widen with delight, the Soul Beasts beside him could no longer suppress their curiosity and spoke up.
"Yuhao, what happened?"
"It's a little complicated. Let's begin the Soul Spirit Ritual first, and I'll explain it to you slowly."
As Huo Yuhao swiftly set up the Soul Spirit Ritual, he spoke. Ice Empress had already fused the soul bone into him; dragging this out would put her in danger.
