Chapter 266 Ice Emperor: Seeing Tianmeng is still useless, so I'll just let it go.
Chapter 266 Hyotei: Seeing Tenmu was still of no use, so I'm relieved.
A mournful dragon's roar followed, and countless elements of light burst forth, sweeping across the entire void before finally fading into silence.
At this moment, Grace's heart was filled with unprecedented fear.
As the white dragon completely dissipated, the aura of the Holy Dragon of Light on his body vanished completely in that instant.
Overwhelmed by intense emotions, he could no longer maintain his balance and plummeted straight to the ground from mid-air.
boom--
The sound of the four-character battle armor hitting the ground was unusually dull.
Before Enci could recover from the shock of her martial soul being sealed, an unusually sinister and chilling aura swept over her.
Faced with Huo Yuhao's spiritual power, which had reached the Spirit Domain Realm, Enci, whose mind was in turmoil, was powerless to resist, even though her spiritual power was also at the Spirit Domain Realm. She was easily dragged into the spiritual illusion.
With the evil eye possessing him, Huo Yuhao clapped his hands lightly. His eyes, now dyed an eerie blood color, stared straight at Dai Mubai, whose face was already filled with horror. He couldn't help but grin again.
"Alright, now there are no outsiders in the way. Dai Mubai, I can finally get everything I want to know from you."
Looking at that blood-red-eyed, white-haired boy, who seemed to have walked out of hell, especially the eerie aura emanating from the giant evil eye behind him, one felt a chill run down one's spine.
Dai Mubai's voice trembled uncontrollably as he roared, his voice a mixture of bravado and fear:
"Huo Yuhao, you have indeed completely fallen into evil ways! Even if I, Dai Mubai, die here today, my soul and spirit annihilated, I would never betray my brothers and sisters or reveal a single piece of information to you!"
As he spoke, he raised the Vajra Bracelet in his hand again, attempting to detonate the artifact along with the space itself.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's lips curled into a malicious smile.
"It's okay, if you don't tell me, I'll just take it myself. Anyway, it'll be easier to just take it directly from your head."
Before he could finish speaking, eighty-one spiritual tentacles originating from the Evil Eye instantly traversed the void and brutally pierced into Dai Mubai's body.
"Well……"
Dai Mubai only had time to let out a muffled groan before his eyes rolled upwards and he fell straight backwards.
The vajra bracelet in his hand fell limply to the ground with a clatter.
Lying on the ground not far away, Enci was struggling to break free from the mental illusion when her blurred vision caught sight of the God of War, who was enveloped by countless evil tentacles and whose body was twitching involuntarily.
A deep sense of sorrow and helplessness welled up in his heart.
It's like an incompetent husband watching helplessly as his beloved wife, manipulated by others, displays a humiliating demeanor he's never seen before.
"My Lord God of War, it is my incompetence that is the problem!"
Grace cried out in her heart, filled with sorrow.
"If I had discovered the evil true nature of that spirit ice sooner, you wouldn't be in such an irreversible situation today."
Overwhelmed by grief and self-reproach, Enci's last shred of resistance crumbled, and she sank completely into a mental illusion, becoming utterly still.
It is unknown how much time passed before Enci slowly woke up.
He sat up abruptly and looked around blankly.
This once sacred space of divine examination is now nothing but a scene of devastation.
The white-haired boy, who seemed like a demon descended to earth, had long since vanished.
Enci didn't even bother to check on her still sealed Holy Dragon Martial Soul, and scrambled to Dai Mubai's side, who was not far away.
Looking at the deep, bone-revealing wounds on the other person's body, which seemed to tear the body apart, Enci's aged body trembled violently.
After confirming several times that the other person still had a faint breath of life, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and his cloudy old tears welled up in his eyes again.
"Lord War God, please wake up! Please, you mustn't be hurt!"
Although she was filled with confusion, she couldn't understand why Ling Bing, after gaining the upper hand, only gave Dai Mubai a good beating instead of taking his life.
But at this moment, Enci couldn't afford to think about so many trivial details.
With trembling hands, he flipped his palm, and a dragon-shaped crystal, radiating an exceptionally rich and pure aura of light, appeared in his hand.
Looking at the dragon crystal, Enci's eyes revealed an undisguised pain.
This is the dragon crystal of the Holy Dragon of Light, a true dragon core of the true dragon level, and a treasure that can be passed down for generations.
Even his ability to become a Limit Douluo so smoothly was largely due to its help.
Now they're just crushing it up like that, using it as a disposable healing item. Enci's heart is bleeding.
But this was the only way he could think of to save Dai Mubai, who was a god.
Enci instantly unleashed the Limit Douluo-level soul power he could still muster, enveloping the crystal.
Without further hesitation, he crushed the dragon crystal of the Holy Light Dragon completely.
In an instant, the entire space was filled with a holy and luminous aura so intense it was almost impenetrable, and pure light elements transformed into visible golden rain, falling in abundance.
Nourished by the boundless energy of light, the hideous wounds on Dai Mubai's body began to heal at a visible speed, and his originally pale face regained a touch of color.
However, his aura remained weak, and the depleted divine power within him had not been replenished in the slightest.
Dai Mubai's eyelids trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes with some difficulty.
But at this moment, a barely perceptible gray light quietly flickered deep within the depths of his signature evil eyes.
Upon contact with the rich aura of light from the outside world, the gray stream of light began to greedily absorb it, as if it were a living being, and silently expanded deep within the soul.
……
Meanwhile, high in the sky.
A strange, blood-red streak of light was flying southwards from the Star Luo Continent at an astonishing speed.
"Yuhao, why didn't you just kill Dai Mubai already?"
Tianmeng's slightly puzzled voice rang directly in Huo Yuhao's mind.
In her view, that divine testing ground could be said to have been completely destroyed, and the time required to repair it and generate immortal spiritual energy again was even more unpredictable.
Dai Mubai was right. If it weren't for the immortal spiritual energy emanating from the Divine Trial Ground, Huo Yuhao would never have been able to temporarily boost the power of his soul skill to the level of a divine skill.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Dai Yun'er, who was pressed tightly against him.
She was watching with curiosity the mountains and rivers rushing past beneath her through the crimson protective shield, occasionally letting out a gasp of surprise.
Rubbing his temples, Huo Yuhao responded somewhat helplessly within his spiritual sea.
"Sister Tianmeng, sometimes, being alive is more useful than being dead. Besides, after I forcibly implanted a contract into Dai Mubai, he can actually become our most useful hidden pawn."
"Yuhao is right. So, you big worm who talks about wisdom all day long are really useless. You don't even understand such a simple principle."
A voice, clearly tinged with arrogance, suddenly rang out from within the sea of consciousness.
Tianmeng, who had been teasing Axie, trembled upon hearing the voice, and her face immediately revealed undisguised joy.
"Bingbing, my dear Bingbing. You're finally awake! I've missed you so much!"
Without a second thought, she abandoned Ah Xie, whom she had been playing with, and rushed headlong towards the golden ball of light that was gathering in the center of her spiritual sea.
Before she could get close, an unusually long scorpion tail, gleaming with a sinister light, shot out from the ball of light and struck Tianmeng's lower abdomen mercilessly.
A crisp snap.
Tianmeng let out a short cry of surprise, and was directly sent flying, tumbling several times in the sea of consciousness before coming to a stop.
"Big bug, I suggest you open your eyes and look carefully. I'm not the one you think I am."
As Hyotei uttered those arrogant words, the dazzling golden light suddenly collapsed inward, transforming into a deep, emerald-green glow.
A hand with icy blue skin, as if meticulously carved from the finest jade, emerged from the ball of light.
Immediately afterwards, the whole body emerged from it, spiraling and unfolding.
What came into view was a woman, over ten feet tall, with a bizarre yet captivating half-human, half-scorpion form.
Her upper body was a perfect female body, with a crown with gold patterns on her head and a set of purple and white armor with gold patterns on the edges, which outlined her breathtaking curves to the fullest.
Her lower body was a long, scorpion tail.
The purplish-blue scorpion tail was covered with layers of thorny scales that shimmered with a cold metallic light.
The dark golden tail needle at the end gleamed with a cold, azure light, making the temperature of the entire sea of consciousness seem to drop a few degrees.
"Ah...this..."
Tenmu, who had just scrambled to her feet, looked at Hyotei in this state and felt as if her world was about to collapse.
Her small mouth opened slightly, and she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, muttering to herself:
"Sis, why do you look so different from all of us? Could it be that the 'me' on the other destiny line had such unusual tastes?"
If the Hyotei they knew was just a cute little girl with adorable pigtails who occasionally threw tantrums, then...
So the one in front of you is definitely the kind of arrogant queen who can devour you without spitting out the bones, who can smile charmingly while whipping your buttocks hard with a small leather whip.
Thinking of this, Tianmeng couldn't help but shudder.
If back in the far north, I had met not my lovely Bingbing, but this queen before me.
They probably wouldn't even have the courage to confess their feelings; they'd be so terrified they'd run away in a panic, never daring to go back.
Just as Tianmeng was lost in thought, Hyotei's enormous scorpion tail moved again.
This time, however, instead of attacking as before, it deftly rolled up Tianmeng, who was still lying on the ground, and lifted her up in front of it.
Hyotei looked with great interest at the little toy struggling desperately on its tail, and after a long while, it let out a meaningful click of its tongue.
"Tsk. I'm genuinely curious now about your true gender."
When they met again, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm had completely transformed into a Wisdom Soul Ring.
Even the spiritual form that the other party conjured bore some resemblance to Huo Yuhao at the time, not to mention his chubby, silkworm-like true form...
Upon hearing this, Tianmeng's face turned deathly pale. She forgot to struggle and just shook her head desperately, her voice trembling with sobs.
"No, no, no, don't do anything reckless! I'm warning you, I've been a girl from the very beginning, the real deal. You can ask Yuhao if you don't believe me!"
"Alright, Hyotei, stop scare Tenmu-nee."
Huo Yuhao looked at Tianmeng, who was about to faint from fright, and shook his head helplessly before speaking softly.
"I just didn't expect you to wake up at this time."
Upon hearing this, Hyotei lashed out with its scorpion tail once more.
It was like throwing away some non-combustible garbage; Tianmeng was thrown out once again.
"Hmph, after sleeping for so many years, I've woken up to find the world completely changed. Even though the other 'me' explained a lot to me, seeing it with my own eyes still feels quite novel."
"Waaaah... Even if you find it novel, you can't just leave me here to play around! You're such a mean woman. You're nothing like my Bingbing. My Bingbing would never treat me like this."
After struggling to her feet again, Tenmeng finally mustered the courage to stand with her hands on her hips and glare angrily at Hyotei, accusing them of their brutality.
But the next second, when Hyotei's cold eyes swept over her, the courage that Tianmeng had just mustered vanished instantly.
Tianmeng immediately covered her head and crouched down in defense, shrinking into a ball, not daring to say another word.
Upon seeing this, Hyotei once again let out a disdainful click of his tongue.
"Putting everything else aside, their cowardly nature is about seven or eight parts similar."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's expression turned somewhat embarrassed.
If you were to say that Sister Tianmeng is timid, then she really is timid.
But the other one was definitely faking it most of the time. After all, the guy who seemed reliable could occasionally cause a big scandal.
Seeing that Tianmeng had completely stopped making any moves, Hyotei also felt a little bored.
Her enormous scorpion body gracefully reclined on its side, one hand supporting her chin, her gaze finally settling entirely on the white-haired boy before her.
At this moment, Hyotei's expression was somewhat complicated as she asked:
"Yuhao, let's stop chatting here. What are your plans to do next to help Xue Di recover? My awakening this time was entirely due to the stimulation of the immortal spiritual energy I received earlier."
However, the Snow Empress's essence resides within the Snow Core. If you were to stimulate the Snow Core solely with ice-attribute elemental energy, it could very well cause your Ice-Fire Soul Core to completely spiral out of control. At that point, the consequences would be unimaginable.
