Blood-Pact Ice Empress

Dai Huabin also knew that these alone were not enough.

Ice Empress believes in the law of the strong. Empty words don't work on her.

He added fuel to the fire.

"After failing to condense the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core, the Snow Empress felt hopeless about transcending the tribulation and chose to transform into human form and start cultivating again."

Ice Empress's emerald green pupils contracted sharply.

"But after she transformed into human form, she was captured by a human Soul Master."

"This is the information I received."

Dai Huabin paused, then raised his right hand. The aura of the White Tiger Martial Soul emanated from his palm, and a circle of pale golden light enveloped the back of his hand.

"I swear by my Martial Soul that everything I have said today is true."

Ice Empress stared at the White Tiger Soul Power in his palm for three seconds.

She had already gone through the whole process several times in her mind.

Snow Empress has indeed not appeared recently.

Even though we were all busy with our own things before, we would still run into each other every now and then.

But if you think about it, the last time she saw Snow Empress was a long time ago.

If, as this human truly claims, the Snow Empress chose to transform into human form and rebuild her soul after the failure of her Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core...

That would mean that the Snow Empress would give up her 700,000 years of cultivation and start from scratch.

After transforming into human form, the Snow Empress, without the protection of 700,000 years of cultivation, was easily captured on a continent teeming with human Soul Master.

Ice Empress dared not gamble on this possibility.

But she couldn't possibly admit to her face that she had been persuaded.

"Snort."

Ice Empress snorted coldly, his emerald green pupils regaining their indifferent expression.

"You've come to the Far North; your purpose must be quite something, right?"

She took two steps closer, her long emerald green dress leaving a shallow trail in the ice.

The surrounding temperature dropped another ten degrees, and Dai Huabin's Cold-Insulation Cover emitted an unpleasant buzzing sound.

"You human, don't you also want my Soul Ring and Soul Bone?"

Dai Huabin's heart raced.

There's hope.

If Ice Empress really had no interest, they would have already swatted it away with a single claw.

Her willingness to ask further questions indicates that she is testing Dai Huabin and trying to find out his true intentions.

"I don't want your Soul Ring and Soul Bone."

Dai Huabin's voice was clear in the cold wind.

"I have come here to sign a contract with you."

Ice Empress paused for a moment.

"I'll borrow your power to gain some opportunities, and then become a god at level 100!"

Dai Huabin emphasized the last two words.

"And you, you need the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow to survive your tribulation. We each get what we need."

The ice surface remained quiet for a while.

Then Ice Empress laughed.

This time, her laughter was much more genuine than before, and the emerald green magic patterns trembled slightly with her smile.

"Become a god?"

She repeated those two words.

"You're just a human below level 40, yet you talk about becoming a god. Do you even know what a god is?"

Dai Huabin did not shy away from Ice Empress's questions.

He raised his head, and his emerald green pupils met his eyes.

"I dare to say this because I am confident."

"My teacher was a god in his lifetime."

Ice Empress's pupils contracted sharply as she turned to look at the silvery mist.

Electrolux's divine projection rippled slightly on the ice field before he spoke.

"Little Scorpion, he's right."

Electrolux's voice carried a detached indifference.

"That's certainly true of me when I was alive."

Ice Empress's breathing paused for a moment.

She has lived for 400,000 years and has seen many powerful figures.

But God?

That's a different level of existence.

Even the Snow Empress, the strongest in the Far North, only approached the threshold of godhood and never truly crossed it.

And this silver mist before us was once a god?

Ice Empress's heart raced.

She forced herself to calm down, but her emerald green eyes could no longer conceal her wavering.

"Besides."

Dai Huabin continued.

"I also know information about the Immortal Herb."

Ice Empress paused again.

The legendary Foundation of Godhood, the Immortal Herb?

Ice Empress remained silent for a long time.

The cold wind howled across the ice field, swirling up tiny ice crystals.

Dai Huabin did not urge him.

He's waiting.

Finally, Ice Empress spoke.

"I want the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow."

"There's also news about the Snow Empress."

Dai Huabin nodded.

"Can."

Ice Empress stared at him for three seconds, then asked:

"What exactly is this contract you just mentioned?"

Dai Huabin took a deep breath.

"Blood Pact."

"After we sign this agreement, our lives will be intertwined. If I die, you die. If you die, I die too."

A flicker of wariness flashed in Ice Empress's emerald eyes.

"Connected by life?"

"Yes, that way you won't be afraid I'll lie to you about not being able to produce the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. Anyway, if you die, I'll die with you."

Dai Huabin did not hide anything.

"But I can promise that if I am unable to become a god in fifty years, I will voluntarily terminate the contract."

Ice Empress gave a cold laugh.

"Fifty years? What level can a human like you cultivate to in fifty years?"

"I will become a god."

Dai Huabin's tone was very calm.

"If I can't do that, I'll terminate the contract myself."

Ice Empress fell silent; she was weighing her options.

The Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow can increase her chances of surviving the Four-Hundred-Thousand-Year Heavenly Tribulation by 30%.

She needed to receive a message from Snow Empress.

And the existence of Electrolux, this god, made it impossible for her to refuse.

If you follow this human, it might really be possible to find the path to godhood...

So what if she takes a gamble?

"Good."

Ice Empress finally spoke.

I promise you.

Dai Huabin's heart skipped a beat.

It's done!

Electrolux's divine consciousness projection rippled slightly in mid-air.

"In that case, let's begin."

A silvery mist emanated from his body and spread rapidly across the icy plains.

Dai Huabin could sense that Electrolux was mobilizing the power within his mental sea.

The azure-gold light within the Eye of Life grew brighter and brighter, and the area between its brows began to feel hot.

Electrolux's voice echoed in his mind:

"I will use my mental power to construct Blood Pact Array. You and she will each drop a drop of blood at the center of the array, and then I will guide your souls to complete the pact."

"Remember, once a contract is formed, it cannot be revoked unless both of you agree to terminate it."

Dai Huabin nodded.

Ice Empress stood opposite him, her emerald green pupils fixed on the silvery mist.

Electrolux began constructing the magic circle.

Silver spiritual energy traced a complex six-pointed star pattern on the ice surface.

Ancient runes were engraved in every corner of the pattern, emitting a faint silver light that cast interlaced shadows on the ice surface.

The center of the six-pointed star is a circular groove, clearly intended to hold blood.

The entire process of constructing the magic circle lasted approximately five minutes.

When the last rune fell, the entire ice field trembled.

Electrolux's spiritual projection dimmed slightly.

"Alright."

His voice sounded tired.

"You two, each drop of blood into the center of the magic circle."

Dai Huabin raised his right hand, and the aura of the White Tiger Martial Soul emanated from his palm.

He used his Soul Power to condense a sharp blade at his fingertips, and then made a cut on his index finger.

Bright red blood seeped from the wound and dripped into the groove at the center of the magic circle.

Ice Empress glanced at him, then raised their right hand as well.

Her fingertips glowed with a vibrant green light, and with a gentle stroke, a drop of emerald green blood fell from them.

Two drops of blood converged at the center of the magic circle.

The red and emerald green intertwined and then quickly merged, turning into an eerie dark red.

The magic circle lit up.

Silver light rose from every corner of the six-pointed star, converging in mid-air to form a giant pillar of light.

The beam of light enveloped Dai Huabin and Ice Empress.

Dai Huabin could feel a powerful force surging into his body from the magic array.

That force passed through his meridians and rushed directly into his spiritual sea.

The azure-gold light within the Eye of Life flickered wildly.

Electrolux's voice echoed in his mind:

"Open your mind and let her spiritual power in."

Dai Huabin took a deep breath, and then, following Electrolux's instructions, released the defenses of his mental sea.

The next second, a chilling aura surged into his mind.

That was Ice Empress's spiritual power, or you could say her soul.

Dai Huabin could sense that Ice Empress's soul was intertwining with his own.

Two distinct souls collided, merged, and then Entanglement in the sea of consciousness.

This process is very painful.

Cold sweat broke out on Dai Huabin's forehead, and his teeth were clenched so tightly they were grinding together.

Ice Empress is also having a tough time.

Her body trembled slightly, and a hint of pain flashed in her emerald green eyes.

But neither of them backed down.

Ice Empress has never been a coward. On the contrary, Ice Empress never leaves any way out. Once they make a decision, they will go all out. Hesitation will only make opportunities slip away.

Electrolux's spiritual power traversed between their souls, guiding the completion of the contract.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Finally, at a certain moment, Dai Huabin felt a soft sound coming from his mental sea.

The contract was signed.
