"Is there no other way?" Seeing that the Ice and Snow Empresses were both undecided, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but ask the other three in his spiritual sea.
"This old man is also powerless against something like cold poison." Electrolux shook his head; this was clearly not his area of expertise. "This old man can only guarantee that I will perfectly preserve her soul when she is about to die."
Isn't that still dying? Huo Yuhao was a bit helpless. No matter what, she was the benefactor who had actively brought him to this treasure land. If he had to carry Nan Shuishui's corpse out of here, how would he face the entire Earth Dragon Gate?
The Ten Thousand Demon King's eyes darted around, and he suggested, "You can try the injury transfer method I bestowed upon you, but it might not be useful."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao nodded. For now, he could only treat a dead horse as a living one.
The Ice Empress's face showed surprise. This wasn't the first time she had seen Huo Yuhao use this marvelous injury transfer technique. It was just that the targets of this innate skill from the Ten Thousand Demon King were always...
Huo Yuhao no longer hesitated. He pulled the barely breathing Nan Shuishui into his arms, pressing one hand on her lower abdomen.
"Gate Master Nan, my apologies."
Huo Yuhao circulated his soul power, and a majestic life aura surged into Nan Shuishui's body, beginning to probe the cold poison in her dantian.
Rushed by such a pure life aura, Nan Shuishui immediately revived as if in a final flicker of life. She was shocked to find herself cuddling in this young man's arms, with one of his hands roaming over her stomach.
Nan Shuishui's pretty face turned scarlet in an instant. She was just about to struggle, but she found that the meridians in her body had been completely frozen by the cold poison accumulated over many years. Even slightly mobilizing her soul power sent a heart-wrenching pain throughout her body.
"It hurts, it hurts..." Nan Shuishui knew that Huo Yuhao was trying to save her. She endured the pain and couldn't stop moaning.
But Huo Yuhao couldn't care about that. Nan Shuishui's situation was more troublesome than he had expected. Not only were all her meridians blocked due to the eruption of the cold poison, but even her heart had been wrapped in a fine layer of frost.
If this continued, once her heart completely stopped beating, she would surely die!
Huo Yuhao's large hands began to press frantically all over her body. The absorption characteristic of the Immortal Spirit Wood activated, devouring Nan Shuishui's soul power along with the poison.
After half an hour of guidance from Huo Yuhao, the cold poison near her heart had been forced to the area of Nan Shuishui's chest. Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao suddenly lowered his head.
"Hmph." The Snow Empress couldn't help but make another comparison, then turned away with a slightly red face, consoling herself in her heart. She hadn't given birth to a child, so how could she compare with Nan Shuishui?
The Ice Empress tactfully turned around with the Snow Empress. How could she not know the latter's feelings for Huo Yuhao? But alas, that kid's luck with women was in no way inferior to the planar blessing of fortune. He was a disaster wherever he went!
Nan Shuishui's pretty face was completely flushed. The feeling she hadn't had in over a decade assaulted her will. Catching a glimpse of Huo Yuhao earnestly removing the cold poison from her body, complex feelings of gratitude, shyness, and more couldn't help but well up in her heart.
After another hour, Huo Yuhao raised his head, panting as he wiped away a bead of sweat. The cold poison in Nan Shuishui's upper body had basically been transferred to his own body. With the Ice Empress's origin, the mere cold poison couldn't cause any trouble and was rapidly converted into his own soul power, which even contained some of the annihilation energy from Nan Shuishui's soul power.
In the curriculum of Shrek Academy's inner court, there was a special class dedicated to explaining various peculiar martial soul abilities to the inner court disciples. Among them, this annihilation ability had been mentioned. Although Huo Yuhao had never entered the inner court, it didn't mean his god's-eye view didn't know the function of this ability.
Was this an unexpected gain? Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment. The effect of the annihilation ability was very powerful. After hitting an opponent, it could decompose the opponent's attribute abilities, thus achieving a destructive effect.
This ability itself had two characteristics that were most alarming. One was that it could not be countered by any attribute; the other was that after hitting an opponent, it would force the opponent to expend much more soul power in defense than under normal circumstances.
In the spiritual sea, the Skydream Iceworm, the Ten Thousand Demon King, and Electrolux sat in a circle, feeling the special nature of the annihilation ability with great interest.
"Old demon tree, you did that on purpose, didn't you? Did you want Yuhao to obtain the annihilation ability from this woman?" The Skydream Iceworm chuckled and teased.
"Hehe, if I had been able to possess this power back then, my speed of absorbing heaven and earth origin energy could have increased by more than ten times. The position of Beast God wouldn't have belonged to that fellow Di Tian." The Ten Thousand Demon King said with a proud expression.
"If Yuhao can unite with this woman, their future child will definitely be able to completely inherit this power of annihilation, plus this old man's necromancy... tsk tsk!" Electrolux stroked his chin and couldn't help but smile wickedly.
"Hmph, once the power of annihilation is sublimated, it becomes the power of destruction. Have you forgotten? Wasn't Young Master Huo favored by that God of Destruction?" The Ten Thousand Demon King said with a mysterious smile.
...
The cold poison in her upper body had been removed. The next step was to completely eradicate the root of the problem, which was to find a way to deal with the cold poison that had accumulated in Nan Shuishui's dantian for many years.
Huo Yuhao looked at the annihilation energy rising from the palm of his hand. He hadn't expected this innate skill given to him by the Ten Thousand Demon King to be so practical, actually pulling Nan Shuishui back from the gates of hell.
He continued to place his hand on Nan Shuishui's lower abdomen, trying to guide the cold poison in her dantian. This cold poison had already erupted once; it was hard to guarantee when the next eruption would be.
Saving a person to the end, Huo Yuhao's smooth arrival at this grotto-heaven could be considered as having received a favor from the Earth Dragon Gate. He had originally even thought about a scenario of forcible seizure, but he hadn't expected them to come to him softly, and he just happened to be susceptible to the soft approach but not the hard one.
Soon, Huo Yuhao discovered that it was really difficult to immediately transfer the accumulated cold poison in her dantian through flesh and blood. It wasn't that he couldn't do it, but that it would take too long.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously looked at Nan Shuishui's pretty face. It was fine not to look, but one look gave him a shock.
Fine beads of sweat had formed on the latter's forehead, her hair was stuck together haphazardly, and a pair of alluring beautiful eyes were staring straight at him. Her slightly parted red lips exhaled a strange fragrance.
He had almost forgotten that this master of the Earth Dragon Gate had been without a man for a long time. After this stimulation from him, the latter was clearly on the verge of losing control.
Nan Shuishui had a more mature charm than Xian Lin'er or Feng Ling. But he couldn't take advantage of her predicament, could he? He, Huo Yuhao, was not the real Prime Minister Cao!
Huo Yuhao steeled his heart. It was better to cut the Gordian knot.
"Meteor Finger Pierce!"
He suddenly thrust his hand through the latter's waistband. His fingertips found the key position and suddenly grew longer like a tree branch.
Nan Shuishui's beautiful eyes widened almost instantly. Her upper body immediately stiffened, and her hands suddenly grabbed Huo Yuhao's arm, her face showing a look of shock.
The characteristic of the Immortal Spirit Wood activated, absorb!
The cold poison at Nan Shuishui's dantian instantly became agitated. Huo Yuhao held her waist tightly with his other hand to prevent her from moving around.
Seeing wisps of cold air continuously overflowing from her alluring sandalwood mouth, the characteristics of the Immortal Spirit Wood worked in tandem, frantically sucking the cold poison from her body.
Nan Shuishui's long legs went straight in an instant. She could never have imagined all this would happen, but she soon felt the cold poison in her dantian rapidly draining away. In addition, a majestic life energy was continuously being injected into her body.
The heaven and earth origin energy in the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave was abundant. Huo Yuhao was not worried about his consumption at all, and even used himself as a carrier to channel the origin energy from the cavern.
For the first time, Nan Shuishui felt her soul power skyrocketing like a rocket.
Mid-level eighty-nine, late-level eighty-nine, peak-level eighty-nine, level ninety!
The Titled Douluo realm she had been envious of just half a day ago, in just a few short hours,
Huo Yuhao gave a dry laugh, a look of embarrassment on his face. He subconsciously licked the corner of his lips. "Gate Master Nan, you should be fine now."
Nan Shuishui sat up with a blank expression, looking at Huo Yuhao with a complicated expression. This invincible Demon King actually seemed a bit at a loss, and was even looking at her a bit cautiously.
But how should she face him? It was true that he had saved her, but that process...
This kid's real age seemed to be even younger than her own daughter's, yet she had unconsciously had that kind of act with him.
"Thank you, Demon King, for saving my life. Shuishui is eternally grateful." Nan Shuishui took a deep breath. The thought of having just had a deep, mouth-to-mouth exchange with him made her face flush uncontrollably.
"Is it over?"
At this moment, the Snow Empress returned with the Ice Empress. Looking at Nan Shuishui's neat clothes, both the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress felt an inexplicable sense of relief in their hearts, and so she asked in an unfriendly tone.
"Thank you for your concern, Lady Snow Empress. Lord Demon King has already treated my injuries. I believe there should be no major issues." Nan Shuishui gave her a slight bow, and an unknown sense of guilt arose spontaneously.
"Since you're fine, then we should get out of here as soon as possible."
The Snow Empress had a proud and spoiled look. For some reason, she didn't want to talk to Nan Shuishui at all and just urged Huo Yuhao.
"Alright, let's go up." Huo Yuhao gave a bitter smile. He had originally intended to heal someone, but he hadn't expected the situation to develop completely beyond his expectations.
Just then, he suddenly sensed a trace of abnormality. He instantly turned his head. A large torrent of water rushed towards him from behind.
It turned out that without the support of the magical power contained in the Ice Pith God Crystals, and with the entrance door having been open for a long time, the ice spring water from outside had finally broken through the completely dissipated magical power and was rushing into the cavern.
Huo Yuhao protected Nan Shuishui with his Ultimate Ice. The Ice Empress immediately turned into a stream of light and returned to his body. He took a deep dive and was about to swim outwards.
And just at this moment, a sudden change occurred. A huge electric current, using the Cold Spring as a medium, instantly enveloped the three of them. Its power was definitely not something an ordinary Titled Douluo could achieve.
Who is releasing electricity up there?
