Chapter 33: The Snow Emperor
Mu En summoned the long-prepared Huo Yuhao and placed the Sealing God Stage before him.
"Yuhao, this is the Spirit Beast embryo you wanted. Are you going to absorb it yourself, or do you need me, this old man, to help you?"
"I'll do it myself, thank you, Elder Mu." It wasn't suitable for others to be present for the Snow Empress's matter, so Huo Yuhao politely declined Mu En's offer.
"Alright, then Yuhao, you can arrange things yourself from now on. If anything unexpected happens, just use your mental force to warn me. This old bone of mine can still help you one last time."
Mu En gave Huo Yuhao a few final instructions before leaving the quiet room of the Sea God Pavilion, leaving Huo Yuhao space to proceed on his own.
At such close proximity to the Snow Empress's embryo, the Ice Empress finally realized something was amiss.
"Yuhao, why is this aura so familiar? This is Xue'er's aura. Yuhao, is Xue'er inside?"
After the Ice Empress discovered that it might be the Snow Empress within, her speech became hurried, and she asked anxiously.
"It is indeed the Snow Empress. She was attacked by a Spirit Master midway through her human transformation and failed. Now she is at the end of her rope."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's explanation, the Ice Empress's emotions fluctuated violently.
"Yuhao, can we bring Xue'er in now? Trust me, with Xue'er's addition, the success rate of our plan will greatly increase, and it will only benefit us."
"Ice Empress, calm down first. I naturally agree. If I didn't plan to let the Snow Empress join, why would I have gone to such lengths to acquire this embryo?"
Having received Huo Yuhao's approval, the Ice Empress's emotions stabilized, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The Ice Empress had long wanted to bring the Snow Empress in, seeing that Huo Yuhao's mental force had already transformed into divine consciousness, having already completed half of his path to godhood.
Now that Huo Yuhao had agreed, all that remained was to persuade the Snow Empress, and on this point, she had full confidence.
Tianmeng Iceworm asked with some doubt at this moment:
"Yuhao, you're not talking about the Ice and Snow Empress, the head of the three Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North, are you? How could she be cultivating to become human again? Hasn't her cultivation already exceeded 100,000 years?"
"Ice Empress, you go and persuade the Snow Empress first. I'll explain to Brother Tianmeng."
After transmitting the Ice Empress's spiritual body into the Sealing God Stage with his divine consciousness, Huo Yuhao began to tell Tianmeng Iceworm the story of how the Snow Empress sealed her 700,000 years of cultivation and transformed into a human.
Not long after, the Ice Empress's voice came, tinged with joy, "Yuhao, Xue'er agreed, but she hopes to make a deal with you."
At this moment, Huo Yuhao, having received a positive reply, did not hesitate further. After breaking the Sealing God Stage, he began to converse face-to-face with the Snow Empress.
Feeling Huo Yuhao's divine consciousness, the Snow Empress couldn't help but exclaim, "Tianmeng Iceworm truly has good luck."
"Human, I can sacrifice myself to you like the Ice Empress, but I hope to complete a transaction with you."
"I will help you resolve all the spirit rings for your ultimate ice Spirit, but I hope that after you become a god, you will protect the Extreme North Land from intrusion."
Hearing the Snow Empress's request, Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment before agreeing.
"Yes, I agree to this transaction. If I become a god in the future, I will ensure the safety of the Extreme North Land, provided it does not actively incite chaos."
The Snow Empress was actually quite afraid that Huo Yuhao would refuse this transaction, as whether Huo Yuhao agreed or not, she no longer had the ability to protect the Extreme North Land.
Now with Huo Yuhao's assurance, she felt relieved. It was worth putting aside her long-held pride and conversing with Huo Yuhao with a somewhat pleading tone.
"Since that's the case, let's begin. My origin is already somewhat unstable, and I still need your help to suppress it."
After the Snow Empress finished speaking, she controlled her Spirit core to gradually condense into a Spirit Bone.
Due to the damage to the Spirit core caused by the failed human transformation, Huo Yuhao and Electrolux worked together at this moment to stabilize the Spirit core's fissure.
"Yuhao, which part of the Spirit Bone do you need to condense?"
Hearing the Snow Empress's inquiry, Huo Yuhao did not hesitate, "Condense it into a skull bone."
"Alright."
The Snow Empress integrated a large amount of her origin into the Spirit core, causing it to gradually transform into the shape of a skull bone.
Immediately after, the 700,000-year-old Snow Empress skull bone transformed into a stream of light and merged into Huo Yuhao's head.
"Brother Tianmeng, next, let's work together to seal the origin within the Spirit Bone."
Huo Yuhao called upon Tianmeng Iceworm to jointly seal the origin in the Spirit Bone that exceeded Huo Yuhao's absorption limit.
At the same time, Electrolux's urging voice came, "Yuhao, hurry, the external origin is about to become unstable."
The Snow Empress's origin, having lost the restriction of the Spirit core, showed signs of agitation, and a large amount of energy began to fall into an unstable state.
Huo Yuhao quickly joined forces with Electrolux to perform the Spirit Soul Contract.
With the help of the Spirit Soul Contract, the Snow Empress's remaining origin power gradually merged into Huo Yuhao's body, transforming into two orange-gold spirit rings that emerged.
The two spirit rings brought Huo Yuhao two Spirit Abilities: Emperor's Palm of Great Cold Without Snow and Emperor's Sword of Extreme Ice Unrivaled.
Emperor's Cold Heavenly Snow Dance of Brilliant Sun and the Pride of the Two Ice and Snow Emperors transformed into the Snow Empress's Spirit Bone Abilities and merged into the head Spirit Bone.
After merging with the head Spirit Bone, Huo Yuhao's mental force further strengthened, advancing from the ordinary Divine Origin Realm to the third-level Divine Origin Realm, which corresponds to the mental force strength of a third-level god.
Huo Yuhao's spirit power also broke through to level 50, and he only needed to absorb a fifth spirit ring to become a Spirit King.
Huo Yuhao's spirit power, after absorbing the Snow Empress's spirit rings and Spirit Bones, was definitely more than level 50.
According to Huo Yuhao's estimation, if the fifth spirit ring absorbed a mental-type Spirit Beast close to 100,000 years old, it would most likely raise his spirit power to level 55 or higher.
At this moment, the Snow Empress looked at her own state with some novelty.
As her Spirit core completely transformed into a Spirit Bone, the Snow Empress, having lost her origin power, still transformed into the form of a little girl.
Only by using the origin power stored in the Spirit Bone could she temporarily transform into her complete form.
The Ice Empress, beaming with joy, came over and hugged the little girl-like Snow Empress, which made Tianmeng extremely jealous.
Electrolux, meanwhile, was recording the energy fluctuations generated during the Snow Empress's transformation into a Spirit Soul.
"Yuhao, with this successful experience, perhaps we are not far from developing a truly self-created Spirit Soul that can replace Spirit Beasts."
Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement.
With Electrolux's help, plus his own understanding of Spirit Souls, they were already close to completing their first artificial ten-year Spirit Soul.
Huo Yuhao used the rare metals he Spirit Refined as a base, gradually transforming them into the state of a Spirit Soul.
Most of the previous experiments had been successful, and now with the successful data from the Snow Empress, as long as they imitated its fluctuations and used spirit power to change the corresponding characteristics of the Spirit Refined metal, the artificial ten-year Spirit Soul would soon be born.
However, feeling his physical strength greatly increase again, Huo Yuhao was also troubled by the progress of his forging.
He hadn't fully mastered the Spirit Forging method yet, but his physical strength had already increased to a level where he could almost bear a three-word battle armor.
