Chapter 26 Past Events
The fragrant and exquisite immortal was even more bewildered. Huo Yuhao, unable to contain himself any longer, coughed lightly twice, suppressing his laughter, and asked in return:
"Youyou, without your protection, could you immortal herbs have survived in this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire? And besides you, could the other immortal herbs here have passed through the poisonous miasma outside?"
The reason why the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass was willing to become his soul in its previous life was largely because it was also restricted by this poisonous barrier and could not get out at all.
It's important to know that plant-type spirit beasts are much more solitary than animal-type spirit beasts. Before they develop intelligence, they are completely unable to move.
At the same time, even if these immortal herbs have cultivated for 100,000 years, they are unwilling to leave this place because of their excessive dependence on the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.
Outside, the area is shrouded in poisonous miasma created by the Seven-Colored and Nine-Colored Azure Phosphorous Flowers. Apart from the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb, other immortal herbs cannot escape, even if they wish. This is one of the key reasons why the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb holds sway here.
Even if the facts are indeed as you say.
The tone of Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin became somewhat hesitant.
"Then we've just gone from being kept by that person to being kept by you."
Although they had discussed it with the other immortal herbs and decided to leave with the human in front of them, since this human had taken away the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, they could not leave him if they wanted to continue to improve their cultivation.
However, they didn't want to sell themselves off so easily; they wanted to get a good price and maximize their profits.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately pulled out the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which was about to take a nap in his spiritual sea, as an example, and explained the effects of the Soul Contract to the immortal herbs present.
"Youyou, you should know that after you plant-type soul beasts become soul spirits, you can be the purest energy bodies."
This means that even if a Soul Master dies, you can be reborn and regrow on the spot using this pure energy body. Moreover, your cultivation will only be stronger than it is now.
After listening to Huo Yuhao's story, the atmosphere in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well became restless. Every intelligent being, especially the plant-type soul beasts that were 100,000 years old, began to feel intense turmoil.
"Of course, I don't need your immediate answer."
Huo Yuhao looked at the restless immortal herbs and said gently, "When I come here again, if any of you are willing to leave with me and become a soul spirit, I will do my best to help you find the most suitable host."
After saying that, Huo Yuhao stopped paying attention to the heated discussion among the plant-type soul beasts and took Xue Di's hand.
"Xue'er, let's leave."
……
The fusion of soul bones was not unfamiliar to Huo Yuhao.
Even though his physical attributes have been refined through the Ice and Fire Golden Body and are now close to the strength of a Soul Master, fusing with the Ice Emperor's nearly 400,000-year-old torso and soul bones would still be extremely painful.
As the emerald green hook on Hyotei's scorpion tail suddenly shot up, it plunged fiercely into Huo Yuhao's coccyx.
His body trembled violently, and then a sharp pain originating from the depths of his nerves surged from his bone marrow, quickly spreading to his flesh, fascia, and even every inch of his skin.
The pain was like being in an extremely cold ice cave, where every inch of skin and every bone was frozen stiff and numb, and then broken by human hands.
Even with this inhuman pain, Huo Yuhao only trembled slightly at the beginning and then showed no other reaction, not even letting out a scream.
Seeing this, Tianmeng felt even more heartbroken. She bit her lower lip tightly, wishing she could take Huo Yuhao's place and endure this inhuman torture.
Tianmeng subconsciously glanced at Xue Di beside her, only to see a worried expression on her usually aloof face. It was unclear whether she was worried about Huo Yuhao or Bing Di.
As time passed, a touch of emerald green quietly emerged, like strands of emerald green silk covering Huo Yuhao's spine, sternum, and ribs.
These green plants gradually grew stronger, completely outlining the skeleton, as if they were draped in a layer of crystal armor.
At the same time, the crystalline particles on Ice Emperor's body began to melt quietly, turning into wisps of ice mist that flowed into Huo Yuhao's body through his skin.
Amidst the swirling icy mist, Huo Yuhao's figure gradually blurred, while the Ice Emperor beneath him silently vanished.
Within Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, a cold and aloof girl dressed entirely in emerald green was surveying everything around her.
The girl had long, emerald-green hair tied into twin ponytails, with a pair of scorpion pincer-shaped hair ornaments at the ends, and a crown on her head that shimmered with a cold luster.
She had orange-gold eyes and wore a white and green dress with a light and flowing hem that playfully revealed her navel. Behind her, a long, emerald-green scorpion tail was slowly swaying.
Hyotei's gaze fell on the golden vertical pupil floating in the void. Compared to the previous phantom, the pressure emanating from this vertical pupil was now much stronger, making people afraid to look directly at it.
As Hyotei swayed her scorpion tail, she gently wrapped it around Huo Yuhao's spirit body and lifted him in front of her.
Looking at Huo Yuhao, whose face was so close to hers, and staring into those clear, icy blue eyes, she said angrily:
"Yuhao, don't you have anything to give me?"
Ice Emperor had naturally gotten some information from Snow Emperor and knew what the ice crystals really meant.
Although Hyotei found it very incredible, what concerned her even more was whether her past life had left her anything.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately gave a wry smile. As one of Tang San's backup plans, the Qiankun Asking Love Valley affected far more than just himself at that time.
Since some things are already in the past, there's no need to bring them up again.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao remained silent for a long time, Bingdi pulled Huo Yuhao closer, pressed her forehead against Huo Yuhao's, and asked with a hint of suspicion:
"Yuhao, were we really that bad off before?"
"Hyotei, it's just that some things... since they've already changed, it's better not to worry about them too much."
Huo Yuhao spoke somewhat hesitantly, clearly not wanting the Ice Emperor to dwell on this point too much.
Tianmeng and Xuedi, for example, were not very interested in their past life memories. After all, the memories provided by Huo Yuhao were just for them to be bystanders, receiving input without any emotion, more like watching a movie.
"Yuhao, I'm not satisfied with your answer."
Hyotei crossed his arms, his tone displeased.
