The sunlight was eerily scattered across this Far North, casting golden rays across the snow-covered ground.
Two dark figures, one large and one small, hung high in the air, with intricate array patterns constantly flowing across Ice Empress's body.
The tranquility lasted only half a minute. Ice Empress's body, which had been somewhat stiff, slowly moved its six long, icy green legs, and its pair of diamond-like claws stretched out slightly.
In particular, the tail that had been inserted into Huo Yuhao's spine moved slowly, then lifted backward and withdrew.
The array patterns began to slowly merge into Ice Empress's body, and the blood-red Soul Ring also entered Ice Empress's body at this moment.
Their bodies began to float downwards, and then landed steadily on the snow.
Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was the sleeping Ice Empress. Her bright green body, under the sunlight, looked even more like a fine work of art.
With the complete disappearance of the array patterns, everything was within Huo Yuhao's plan, and the Ice Empress's transformation and reconstruction had finally completed the first step.
While Ice Empress was sacrificing herself, Huo Yuhao began preparing to send Ice Empress's soul and energy back into her body. With the help of a soul-guiding array, he preserved Ice Empress's life force and kept her soul intact.
He then allowed the Ice Empress to pass through his body, thus solidifying his Second Martial Soul into the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, achieving a win-win situation.
Next, once the three medicinal ingredients needed by Ice Empress are prepared, Ice Empress can completely transform into human form.
"Boss, this... this seems a little different from what we agreed on, doesn't it?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm asked doubtfully.
The phantom of Ice Empress's soul slowly appeared on its body, and said to it, " Tian Meng, this is the result of my discussion with Yuhao, it's not your place to ask."
Upon hearing Ice Empress's words, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's entire body instantly shriveled up, and its original hope of living happily ever after with Ice Empress was dashed.
Besides, this was a decision made by its own boss, and it couldn't refuse it. Its boss was its savior, and it would never protest against its boss's decision.
Ice Empress's soul slowly floated out and landed on the snow-white ground, like a fairy in the snow, exceptionally beautiful.
Huo Yuhao stared thoughtfully at Ice Empress's body, his Spiritual Power entering his storage ring, which was already so full that it couldn't hold Ice Empress's body at all.
Huo Yuhao was helpless. Two things appeared before him. Originally, he planned to take Ice Empress back to the Garden Headquarters and revive her, but now that he couldn't take Ice Empress with him, he had no choice but to revive her here.
With a thought, the two objects floated in front of everyone.
The Ten-Thousand-Year Nine-Grade Ginseng King exuded a heavy, earthy yellow color, emanating a strong medicinal aroma. Even Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, who were still unconscious, couldn't help but drool upon smelling the aroma.
The green leaves above the Ginseng King continuously exuded a strong life force, spreading outwards imperceptibly.
Huo Yuhao waved his hand, and a dark barrier reappeared, sealing off the surrounding space to ensure that the fragrance of the medicine did not spread.
Beside the Ginseng King, a core nearly the size of a fist floated quietly. From within the black barrier, the roars of dragons echoed continuously, and a pressure emanating from the bloodline caused the Ice Empress's soul to tremble slightly.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm immediately recognized that this inner core was something the leader had obtained from that old man back on Shrek Sea God Island.
"We're ready to begin."
With a wave of his hand, Huo Yuhao sent the Ten-Thousand-Year Nine-Grade Ginseng King and the White Dragon Inner Core floating directly to the top of the Ice Empress's head.
Ice Empress instinctively took two steps back, immediately advising, "Wait, weren't there supposed to be three medicinal ingredients? If we only have two, I'm afraid that won't be enough."
Huo Yuhao, who was about to withdraw the Soul Power from the Dragon Core core, stopped and patiently explained, "When you made your sacrifice, I already used a magic array to stabilize your soul within your body, so you no longer need the Holy Soul Grass to stabilize your soul."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's explanation, Ice Empress looked at the array patterns on her Soul Beast body. Indeed, as Huo Yuhao had said, her soul was incredibly stable with the help of the array patterns the moment it returned to her body.
Ice Empress nodded, indicating that she was fine and let Huo Yuhao continue.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm asked with some concern, "Boss, is this alright? Do you need my help?"
Huo Yuhao waved his hand, pointed to Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan inside the ice house, and said, "No need. You and Qian Renxue just need to ensure their safety over there and make sure I'm not disturbed."
"Okay... alright."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked at the Ice Empress in front of her with some worry, and followed Huo Yuhao's instructions to step back.
Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong watched Huo Yuhao's movements carefully, afraid of missing a single detail. This was the first time they had ever seen Soul Beast reincarnate as a human, and they were very curious, eager to see what mysteries it held.
Seeing that there were no more disturbances, Huo Yuhao finally began to act.
With a flick of his Soul Power, the Soul Power sealing the Dragon Core pill slowly faded away, and an even more terrifying and ferocious aura enveloped the entire space.
Even Ice Empress's unconscious body began to tremble slightly under the influence of the Dragon Core.
When Huo Yuhao completely withdrew his Soul Power, the terrifying aura within the Dragon Core erupted completely, and an invisible pressure enveloped everyone's hearts, causing their consciousness to begin to waver.
The ancient, primordial aura, thick with the stench of blood, constantly assaulted their spirits.
The roar of the dragon seemed to be constantly howling in everyone's ears, making them feel as if their souls were being ripped out.
A white aura slowly emerged from the Dragon Core, forming a phantom image of a white dragon on its inner core. The white dragon slowly opened its eyes, and an infinitely fierce aura swept over everything present as its eyes opened.
With a thought, Huo Yuhao caused the Ten-Thousand-Year Nine-Grade Ginseng King beside him to emit a faint earthy-yellow golden light, and a rich life force permeated the air.
The light appeared utterly indifferent, but when the intense, fierce aura collided with it, it was instantly dissolved.
When the aura emanating from the Ginseng King was fully released, the previously turbulent Dragon Core gradually calmed down.
Huo Yuhao exerted his best to maintain the balance between the two, and after confirming that there were no problems, he gave Ice Empress a look and directed the two towards Ice Empress's body.
Ice Empress immediately understood, and with a thought, her soul returned to her body.
Soon, she felt two opposing energies surge into her body.
Under the influence of the Ginseng King and the Dragon Core, the Ice Empress's body shone with a bright green light, and Ice Empress pillars two meters high immediately rose from the snow beneath his feet, instantly enveloping his body.
The green light refracted through the ice, making it even more dazzling. Countless ice crystals took on a mysterious aura. As the light flowed, the body of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion within the ice crystals began to slowly shrink, forming a petite humanoid shape.
