Huo Yuhao didn't say anything, returning to reality, and said, "Teacher, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said it found me the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Ice Empress to be my Second Martial Soul."
" Ice Empress? This Sky Dream Ice Silkworm really dares to dream." Qian Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"I remember reading that the Ice Empress is one of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North, and Ferocious Beast that ranks among the top in the entire Douluo Continent. It should have nearly 400,000 years of cultivation, which is equivalent to the combat power of a level 97 Titled Douluo in human form," Qian Chen said after thinking for a moment.
"Yes, teacher, that's what Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said too."
However, Qian Chen did not continue to object. After all, Huo Yuhao was the chosen one, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was the starting point for his destiny. He himself was the variable by Huo Yuhao's side, so Qian Chen decided to listen to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's opinion. Qian Chen nodded and said, "Okay, let's go find the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Ice Empress."
Considering that the Ice Empress should be in the Core Circle of Far North, Qian Chen took out more clothes and thermal insulation Soul Tool from his Storage Soul Tool before continuing forward.
After flying for another half day, the temperature felt extremely low. Qian Chen flew on the Seven Kill Sword. Even with his Soul Power protecting him, the cold air and ice crystals in the air still broke through his Soul Power protection and entered, hitting him and Huo Yuhao.
"We've arrived at the core area of Far North." Qian Chen lowered the Seven Kill Sword's flight altitude and finally found a sheltered ice cave to stop.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao was wearing thick thermal clothing, with a heat-insulating Soul Tool inside constantly releasing heat, but he was still shivering from the cold.
"Teacher, it's so cold in here," Huo Yuhao couldn't help but say.
Qian Chen reminded him, "Let's see what Sky Dream Ice Silkworm has to say."
Huo Yuhao hurriedly entered his Sea of Consciousness and asked, " Brother Sky Dream, quick, we've reached the outer perimeter of the core area of Far North. What do we do next?"
"Have your teacher bring out my remains. I'll release my aura to attract Ice Empress, then use the remains to control her, and take her to the outskirts of the Far North to force her to sacrifice herself for you," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said directly.
"No, I promised to give the remains to my teacher. Do you have any other ideas?" Huo Yuhao said excitedly.
"Yes! You guys beat the Ice Empress half to death, and then I can force her to sacrifice herself for you. But let me make this clear first, the Ice Empress has nearly 400,000 years of cultivation, while your teacher seems to only have Level 93 cultivation right now," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said arrogantly.
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment. In his mind, his teacher was omnipotent. He had no concept of how a single level increase in the Titled Douluo level would bring about earth-shattering changes, nor did he know what level of power a nearly 400,000-year-old Ferocious Beast was equivalent to in terms of human strength. Moreover, he himself had once surpassed level 20 and defeated Dai Huabin, all of which came from his teacher Qian Chen. Therefore, he had an extreme admiration for Qian Chen.
He immediately said to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, "Don't worry, my teacher will have no problem taking down Ice Empress."
The next moment, Huo Yuhao returned to reality and said to Qian Chen, "Teacher, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said that he will release his aura later to attract Ice Empress, and then he needs your help to control Ice Empress. Then he can force Ice Empress to sacrifice himself to me."
Qian Chen nodded in agreement. He also felt that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was a million-year-old Soul Beast and should have some tricks up its sleeve. He was just there to help, and it wasn't anything serious, so he said, "Okay, I'll help you control the Ice Empress later."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm also thought that Qian Chen, as Titled Douluo, might have some life-saving methods that he didn't know about, so he didn't object at all.
And so, with their firm belief in the strength of their own side, Qian Chen, Huo Yuhao, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm began their operation.
Soon, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm stopped concealing his aura, which spread rapidly with the cold winds of the core area of Far North.
Qian Chen and Huo Yuhao waited for a long time in the sheltered ice cave. Huo Yuhao asked somewhat uncertainly, " Brother Sky Dream, is your plan really reliable?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, Ice Empress loves my scent. Once they smell it, they'll definitely come over. Besides, the core area of Far North is so vast, it will take time for the scent to spread."
Qian Chen and Huo Yuhao stayed in the ice cave for an unknown amount of time. Finally, Qian Chen felt the surrounding air drop again, and there seemed to be more ice crystals in the air.
A powerful killing intent enveloped the area, and the nearly 400,000-year-old Ferocious Beast, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Ice Empress, finally appeared nearby.
" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, you dare to come back? Do you want to become my food? Your return is just in time, I'm about to break through the Heavenly Tribulation of 400,000 years. By eating you, I will become even stronger. Thank you." A seductive and alluring female voice suddenly came from the sky.
Qian Chen muttered to himself, "So Ice Empress is actually a female scorpion. This guy, in the Far North, is either a king or an emperor. I thought he was an incredibly powerful male scorpion."
At this Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had temporarily taken over Huo Yuhao's body and said, "My Bingbing is naturally a beautiful and stunning female scorpion. Alright, Teacher Qian Chen, I'm about to completely expose our location. Get ready."
Qian Chen nodded. At this moment, both Qian Chen and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm were misled by Huo Yuhao's false message, mistakenly believing that the other party had the means to subdue the Ice Empress, who had nearly 400,000 years of cultivation.
The next moment, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fully released its aura, accurately revealing its location. The Ice Empress immediately sensed Sky Dream Ice Silkworm location and exclaimed, "I've found you!"
Then, Ice Empress swung her giant scorpion pincers and thrust them straight at the ice cave where Qian Chen and Huo Yuhao were sheltering from the wind and snow. With a "boom," the ice cave collapsed completely. Fortunately, Huo Yuhao's body was protected by Qian Chen; otherwise, with just Ice Empress's attack, Huo Yuhao would have been covered by the collapsing ice and snow, becoming a fossil, if not killed.
Qian Chen spread his six angel wings, holding the Seven Kill Sword in one hand and carrying Huo Yuhao's body in the other, breaking through the ice and flying into the air.
"A human? Titled Douluo?" Ice Empress exclaimed in surprise. Then Ice Empress laughed, " Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, you actually betrayed us and joined forces with humans! Haha, that's hilarious. You're just a human Titled Douluo. I don't know where you get the courage to return to the core area of Far North?"
Lifted into the air, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, controlling Huo Yuhao, greeted the Ice Empress, saying, " Bingbing, I've finally seen you again! So many years have passed since I last saw you; I've longed for you day and night!"
Upon hearing Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's words, Qian Chen's forehead immediately creased with black lines. So, this Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was a total simp! The Ice Empress was trying to devour him, yet he still fawned over her, obsessively longing for his nemesis.
"Hahaha, you miss me? Sure, offer me your body, let me become one with you, let me devour you bite by bite. Don't worry, I'll cherish every bite."
" Bingbing, don't worry, I no longer have a physical body. I came to find you today because I want to help you become a god," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm explained.
"What nonsense are you spouting? You think you can make me a god?" Ice Empress sneered, no longer bothering with words to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, and directly swung her giant pincers to launch an attack.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said urgently, "Teacher Qian Chen, hurry! Ice Empress won't listen to reason, you have to take her down!"
"Me? Take her down?" Qian Chen looked at Huo Yuhao she was holding, with surprise and confusion.
