"Welcome to the Ice Fire Yin Yang Eye!" Huo Yuhao looked around the valley, breathing a sigh of relief while also feeling fortunate that his transmigration had come early enough—Tang San had yet to set foot here.
"Eh? Isn't that the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum?" Snake Lance Douluo's sharp eyes caught sight of a golden chrysanthemum growing in a rock crevice, the very same spirit as Chrysanthemum Douluo of Martial Soul Hall.
Huo Yuhao said, "Consuming the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum nourishes the limbs, opens the eight meridians, and allows one to cultivate the Indestructible Vajra Body. It's perfectly suited for the Crown Prince. The greatest benefit of taking these Immortal Herbs growing here is consolidating a soul master's foundation. For someone like me, born with a frail body, every single Immortal Herb here is a crucial step in reversing my path as a soul master."
Xue Qinghe was completely immersed in the valley's wonders. With his discernment, it wasn't hard to see that every herb here was priceless, and their ages were terrifyingly high. The two pools at the valley's center—one of extreme heat, one of extreme cold—were especially eye-catching.
"I didn't expect everything you said to be true. You really do come from Douluo Continent ten thousand years in the future!" Xue Qinghe's eyes lit up, making Huo Yuhao's back tingle.
"The Crown Prince has asked this question many times. Since I can bring you here, don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Pick the Immortal Herbs suited to you and consume them as soon as possible."
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, turning his gaze to the Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass at the center of the cold pond and the extreme heat spring. Unlike ten thousand years later, when this place would be overrun with Hundred Thousand Year Plant System Soul Beasts, now was the perfect time to harvest.
When Sky Dream Ice Silkworm saw Huo Yuhao's attention shift to the two pools, he grew anxious: "Yuhao! With your current physical fitness, you can't force your way into those pools. The Extreme Ice and Extreme Fire Heaven and Earth Yuan Power within them is something you can't withstand."
Huo Yuhao wasn't that foolish. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's warning was correct—his second spirit hadn't yet gained a true Ice Attribute, and charging into the cold pond would be fatal.
Huo Yuhao comforted Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, laughing, "I'm after the two Immortal Herbs at the center of the pools—the Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. These two Immortal Herbs can unblock my clogged meridians and forge a body immune to all poisons, unafraid of water and fire."
"So that's it!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt fortunate to have met Huo Yuhao. Though they had ended up in Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago by accident, obtaining such a great opportunity was a rare stroke of luck in a century.
Huo Yuhao scratched his head in frustration: "The problem now is, I can't get over there. Forget a Titled Douluo—even Xue Qinghe, as the holder of the Swan Spirit, wouldn't dare linger over those pools. One wrong move and he'd be burned to ash or frozen into ice."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's mood also sank: "This is like having a treasure mountain you can only look at, but never touch."
Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, located in the Spiritual World, looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
Just then, the gray gas that had been silent above the Sea of Spirit began to change.
An aged yet authoritative voice rang out: "What's so difficult about this?"
Huo Yuhao's body suddenly went out of control, his eyes turning a dead gray. While Xue Qinghe and the other two were observing the Ice Fire Yin Yang Eye and not paying attention to Huo Yuhao, "Huo Yuhao" slowly raised his right hand. The two Immortal Herbs rooted at the center of the pools trembled without wind, and the next moment, they detached from the pool water and landed at "Huo Yuhao's" feet.
"Old guy! You stealing territory from me is one thing, but now we're stuck ten thousand years in the past with no way back! This is all your doing!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm shouted angrily.
"Impolite bug! This Old Man stealing territory from you? And what are you, anyway? If not for me stepping in back then, dare you claim you could have stopped the Time Eye from accelerating the time flow?" Electrolux snorted coldly, stirring waves in the Sea of Spirit.
"You!!!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm knew he was in the wrong but still fumed, "Don't think I don't know—you're nothing but a wisp of Divine Sense now, with no power left, and you still dare to fight me!"
"Fight you?" Electrolux didn't spare Sky Dream Ice Silkworm another glance. After returning body control, he looked at Huo Yuhao: "Child, I am the Undead Calamity, the Holy Necromancer Electrolux. I do not come from this world. Now, I am merely a remnant of Divine Sense. I have already scanned your memories. To be honest, in a sense, you are truly special."
Huo Yuhao's expression shifted slightly as he stared at the gray humanoid gas mass before him, the corner of his mouth twitching. No way—do you know I'm a transmigrator?
"Yuhao, don't listen to him! This old guy is too mysterious. Who knows if he's up to no good." Sky Dream Ice Silkworm sidled up to Huo Yuhao, having a poor impression of the being calling himself Electrolux.
"Brother Tianmeng, I know what I'm doing." Huo Yuhao smiled at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, then turned to Electrolux and said, "Greetings, Electrolux. May I call you Elder Yi?"
"Such a well-behaved child, unlike this rude big bug." Electrolux continued, "Yuhao, you want to ask how to return to your era."
"You have a way!" Huo Yuhao was overjoyed, staring intently at Electrolux.
"It was an accident, really. Your spirit, the Time Eye, possesses dual attributes of time and spirit. When that big bug injected his vast mental power into your body, it inadvertently triggered the time attribute, causing your body to mature rapidly. When I sensed something was wrong, I entered your body as well. Under my interference, the time flow reversed, restoring your original body."
Electrolux looked at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, his tone turning harsh: "Big bug! This Old Man has no wish to argue with you, nor will I fight you for territory. If you keep making trouble, once my Divine Sense is fully restored, I'll crush your fat body inch by inch, juice and flesh spraying everywhere, then mince your remains into powder!"
"You!!!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt furious, his whole body blazing with golden light.
Huo Yuhao quickly hugged Sky Dream Ice Silkworm: "Forget it, Brother Tianmeng! We still need to return to our own era!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's already plump body trembled violently a few times before he took a deep breath: "For Yuhao's sake, I won't argue with you. Hey, whatever-your-name-is-Kes, how do we get back?"
"Simple. Do you remember what you said back then?"
"I've said a lot of things. How am I supposed to remember which one?"
"Then let me help you recall..."
(Brother's heart aches so much! Brother saved up a million years of mental power, and in one go, one percent is gone! Brother aches!)
From Chapter 4: This is Heaven Dou Empire.
After hearing this, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's small face turned even paler, and his voice became unsteady: "You mean... Brother has to give up part of his Mental Origin, and then we can return to the original world?"
