The Far North, above the core area.
The golden color on the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body grew even more intense, and its bright golden light stood out exceptionally well in the snow-covered world.
The sky grew darker, dark clouds pressed down, and thick snow fell, making the atmosphere between heaven and earth increasingly solemn.
In this dim space, the golden light emanating from the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was dazzling.
Countless Soul Beast in the Far North looked up at the soaring golden pillar of light. The oppressive aura emanating from the air made their legs tremble and they prostrate themselves on the ground.
The Soul Beast that were further away fled in terror.
Perhaps, in a direct battle, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's combat power is only enough to contend with ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and it might even struggle against ferocious Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. However, in terms of its spiritual level, there is probably no Soul Beast on the entire continent stronger than it.
Even though its bloodline can only be considered low-grade in the Far North, it has cultivated for millions of years and, nourished by the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow, it has acquired enormous energy.
Ordinary Soul Beast, unless they're stupid, wouldn't approach it once they sense its aura. However, in the eyes of other Ferocious Beast, it's a huge treasure trove.
This is because it's like Titled Douluo who possesses immense Soul Power but lacks any skills. In the eyes of those Ferocious Beast, it's practically a power bank and a cheat code for cultivation!
That's why it was so miserable in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Now, by releasing my aura in this Far North, I have no need to worry about the Ice Empress not coming.
After all, the Ice Empress understood the value of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. In the Ice Empress's eyes, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was the perfect elixir to help it break through its 400,000-year lifespan limit!
The appearance of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gave Ice Empress hope for survival; it was impossible for Ice Empress not to appear.
Time passed second by second, but Sky Dream Ice Silkworm remained flying in the air, showing no sign of anxiety.
Inside the igloo, the heat emanating from the central Soul Tool had begun to come in fits and starts. The metal Soul Tool was covered in dense white frost, and the temperature was still dropping. The Core Array within the Soul Tool could no longer hold up.
The Core Array carved on the rare metal suddenly shattered from the middle under the terrifyingly low temperature.
After the Soul Power within the Soul Tool flickered once, it was completely destroyed.
The temperature inside the igloo immediately dropped by at least ten degrees, and even with their personal warming Soul Tool, Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan couldn't help but shiver.
Feeling the two women trembling uncontrollably, Huo Yuhao had no other choice but to take out the Milk Bottle from his storage ring and put them into their personal Soul Tool to keep them from getting so cold.
However, in such extremely cold temperatures, this method can only sustain the effect for a short while; it simply cannot last long.
Frost began to slowly condense on Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan's hair and long eyelashes, and their Slime Bodysuit showed signs of freezing.
They went too deep; their Soul Tool for warmth were too low-level to support them for extended periods.
Huo Yuhao cannot use his Soul Power. If he does, the Ice Empress will definitely be keenly aware of it, and then all his efforts will be in vain.
Even if Ice Empress were to take the risk in the end, Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan wouldn't be able to wait until then.
Just then, Qian Renxue's spirit burst forth from between her brows, looked at the two women in Huo Yuhao's arms, and softly said, "Leave them to me."
As she finished speaking, two beams of holy light appeared in Qian Renxue's hands, which transformed into golden-red flames that burned fiercely after a brief transformation within her palms.
Then, she gently pushed her palms forward, and the two flames immediately merged into the two women's bodies.
Their previously stiff bodies began to slowly regain their temperature under the influence of the flames. Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan's pale faces regained their rosy hue, and the frost that had formed began to melt away.
Even though Tang San had shattered her position Angel God, Qian Renxue could still use some of the original abilities of the Angel God. These two flames were the True Solar Fire she had created using the Ultimate Light attribute, enough for the two of them to survive in this freezing cold.
Seeing the two women sleeping peacefully, Huo Yuhao finally felt relieved.
He had originally planned to call back the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Even if it was a bit troublesome and he had to stay in the Far North for a few more days, he could still capture the Ice Empress with his abilities. However, he absolutely could not let Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan freeze to death here.
Bibi Dong wasn't idle either. She came out with Qian Renxue and slowly channeled the Divine Power she had accumulated over ten thousand years into Qian Renxue's body.
Things have calmed down inside the igloo for the time being.
Suddenly, the originally pitch-black sky and the heavy dark clouds were instantly dyed emerald green, the captivating color transforming the clouds into dazzling green gems. The oppressive aura emanating from the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was instantly suppressed by it.
A deep green hue spread across the distant sky, Huo Yuhao naturally sensed the aura of the Ice Empress, his eyes gleaming with surprise.
As the aurora borealis turned a deep emerald green, a gigantic figure could be faintly seen in the distance within that translucent and alluring green.
" Tian Meng, you're still alive! Now that you're here, you're not leaving." A clear voice came from all directions.
The sound, accompanied by a terrifying sonic wave, caused the thick snow on the ground to rise almost instantly by three meters, like a sudden surge of waves.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm continued to gaze at the distant emerald figure, her eyes filled with affection, and said gently, " Ice Empress, in these ten thousand years since I left, I am no longer the same as before. Of course I must live, after all, I said I would make you my mate, and the words of the male Ice Silkworm are absolute."
" Tian Meng, you're asking for it!"
Ice Empress's voice suddenly filled with killing intent, and the azure sky turned dark green in that instant. A heavy killing intent descended from the sky, compressing the snow on the ground and releasing terrifying power.
" Bingbing, even though we are of different races, I am still a million-year-old Soul Beast. Your four hundred thousand-year lifespan is coming to an end, so I specially rushed back to help you. Can't you feel my overwhelming love for you?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm smiled, and her sweet tone was so cloying that even Bibi Dong, who was hiding below, couldn't stand it anymore.
"So you're planning to become food for my breakthrough? In that case, I'll certainly reciprocate your affections. However, I'll chew up your body bit by bit, turning you into a part of me." Ice Empress's tone was filled with disdain and mockery.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to be used to Ice Empress's words. She shook her head indifferently, swaying her huge body, and said helplessly, " Bingbing, a girl should speak more ladylike. Being so cold and domineering, no wonder I've been the only one who likes you all these years."
"Or is that rumor true?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly widened her eyes and said incredulously, "You don't actually like Snow Empress, do you?... No way, no way."
"Damn it! Tian Meng, you just wait! I'll be here in less than a quarter of an hour, and I'll tear you to pieces!" Ice Empress seemed to have been hit where it hurt by his words, and her originally calm voice turned hysterical. The dark green clouds, reflecting her emotions, turned into a deep black in the blink of an eye.
Huo Yuhao's eyes shone with light as he secretly activated his Spiritual Power, and a jade-green figure instantly rushed into his perception range.
Its speed was so great that the snow waves it stirred up behind it reached a height of ten meters, falling to both sides and destroying everything around it. In just a few flashes, the emerald green creature had moved more than a thousand meters.
They were only two kilometers away from where Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and the others were!
Huo Yuhao's heart began to race with excitement. Countless strands of Soul Power pierced through the ice layer, extending intricately and forming a hidden net centered on him.
As long as Ice Empress rushes within 500 meters of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao is confident that he can strike her with one blow and capture Ice Empress directly.
