Chapter 80 Hyotei and Tenmu
"Ice Jade Scorpion!"
Tianmeng felt as if she had been doused with ice water. The anger she felt at being fooled vanished instantly, replaced by fear etched into her DNA.
It stems from the prey's fear of the predator.
"I suppose so," Ice Emperor said lazily. "Little guy, you know, I finally found a cave containing ten-thousand-year-old ice marrow, and excitedly ran in, only to find that a little bug had already absorbed the ten-thousand-year-old ice marrow before me, and was still lying there fast asleep..."
"If you were me, what would you do...?"
Tianmeng's enormous body had begun to tremble uncontrollably.
I feel like I'm doomed.
"Of course... of course I forgive it!" Tenmeng pretended to be calm and winked at Hyotei.
"After all, it's first come, first served. But what exactly is 'Ten Thousand Year Ice Marrow'?"
"Ten-Thousand-Year Frost Marrow... that's the most top-tier ice-attribute treasure. For example, that little insect I mentioned before, a mere ice silkworm, relied on the power of the Ten-Thousand-Year Frost Marrow to gain immense power enough to challenge a million years of cultivation..."
"Oh?" A hint of joy flashed across Tianmeng's face. "Then, sister, what is your cultivation level?"
"My talent isn't great; I've only managed 300,000 years of cultivation..."
"Ah! Take this!" With that, Tianmeng spewed out a massive amount of ice-attribute power, which slammed into the Ice Emperor in front of her, creating bursts of icy mist.
A flash of icy blue light appeared, and Tianmeng stared intently at the mist before her.
As the fog gradually dissipated, Tianmeng's pupils suddenly contracted.
The Ice Jade Scorpion stood there unharmed. Despite being attacked by the icy blue beam, it not only escaped the attack but its emerald green light became even more dazzling.
"While it's true that first come, first served," Hyotei seemed unconcerned about Tenmu's earlier offensive behavior, "there's also a saying: 'If you see it, you get a share...'"
"Didn't you say that the Ten Thousand Years of Frost Marrow had been completely absorbed?" Tianmeng said, trembling.
"It's simple, just eat that bug, right? That way, all the power that bug absorbed will belong to me, right?"
A dangerous glint flashed in Hyotei's eyes.
"Can...can I not eat it?" Tianmeng asked weakly.
What do you think?
Despite not being the same species, Tianmeng clearly sensed a radiant smile on the giant scorpion's face, a smile of exquisite beauty.
"Since you've agreed, then... I'm going to get started!" With that, Hyotei's two giant claws suddenly snapped towards Tenmu.
"Hey! When did I agree?!" Tianmeng's massive body sprang up nimbly, narrowly avoiding being hit by the giant claw.
Before she could even feel relieved, the sharp tail needle pierced straight towards Tianmeng, who was in mid-air.
Tianmeng felt a chill run down her spine, and suddenly shot an ice thread towards the cave ceiling, narrowly missing the stinger just before it struck her.
Pull yourself away.
"Hey, big scorpion!" Tianmeng shouted at the Ice Emperor on the ground.
"How about we make a deal? If you don't eat me, I won't become your food either. Wouldn't that be a win-win situation?"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Hyotei leaped into the air and clashed with Tenmu once again.
During this battle, the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan guarding outside the cave felt a violent tremor coming from inside. They wanted to go and support the Ice Emperor, but they remembered that the Ice Emperor had given an order not to go in and disturb her, so they could only suppress their restless feelings.
"Hey, big scorpion, if this keeps going, it'll never end! You should know that I have significantly more power than you; you definitely can't beat me in a long fight!"
"How about we compromise? You won't eat me, and I won't seek revenge, okay?"
"Is that so? Little one?" Hyotei glanced coldly at Tenmu, a terrifying aura emanating from her.
"The warm-up is over, now it's time to get serious!"
"Holy shit!"
"Stop! Stop it! Don't hit me anymore!"
"No...don't hit my face!"
"It hurts...be gentle!"
"Aaaaaah!—"
"This is outrageous!"
Suddenly, a strong golden light burst forth from Tianmeng, who was being brutally beaten, causing Bingdi to pause in his movements.
Then, with a flash of golden light, Tianmeng's figure completely disappeared from the cave.
"Mental attribute!? How could the Ten Thousand Years of Frozen Marrow give birth to such a powerful mental attribute? And this teleportation ability! Did they just forcefully create a spatial rift by sheer power?"
Hyotei rushed out of the cave, trying to find the little guy, but unfortunately the distance the spatial rift traveled was farther than expected. Hyotei could only barely sense the insect's presence, and it was moving away from him at an extremely fast speed.
"Oh no! We've gone too far!"
After that, it was a cycle of her running away, her chasing, and her being unable to escape...
Ahem, Tenmu, who had awakened her spiritual attributes, was inexplicably difficult to catch. In the end, she successfully jumped into the sea right under Hyotei's nose and was swept into an underwater cave by an undercurrent.
"Hey! Come back here! I won't eat you anymore! Really!"
"Nobody believes you. Goodbye! I, Tianmeng, will return someday!"
……
"How confident are you?" Hyotei asked in a deep voice, looking at Tenmu.
"About 90%?" Tianmeng said somewhat uncertainly.
"Ninety percent?!" Hyotei said in disbelief. "Are you sure?"
"If Huo Yuhao doesn't die in the future, he will definitely become a god..." Tianmeng said somewhat embarrassedly, "That's right, Huo Yuhao might die unexpectedly if he's not careful."
"Even with me here, you can't protect his safety?" Hyotei asked incredulously.
Even if Di Tian comes, as long as you don't provoke him, Di Tian will not make things too difficult for Huo Yuhao out of respect for Bing Di. Besides Di Tian, there are other people in this world that she cannot stop.
Tianmeng fell silent, sorted out Huo Yuhao's affairs, and told Bingdi about them one by one.
"Hoo... that sea god who ascended to heaven ten thousand years ago..."
It took Hyotei quite a while to fully absorb this information. Although the amount of information wasn't large, it was still incredibly absurd. "So you're not going to become gods, but rather to rebel against a god?"
"If you feel it's dangerous, you don't have to join. I'll let you go back later..." Tianmeng said sincerely.
"Heh!" How could Hyotei not see through such an obvious provocation?
"Rebelling against the gods, that's what makes it interesting! I, the emperor, will reluctantly join in."
"I knew you'd agree," Tenmeng said excitedly, releasing the seal from Hyotei. "Next, all we need to do is do this and that..."
With Tianmeng's help, Bingdi voluntarily began to sacrifice, and a piece of soul bone began to merge into Huo Yuhao's body.
"Huh, the person you chose has a much stronger willpower than I expected."
"That's fine too. Perhaps I can absorb more of your power and grow faster!"
"You just plan to let him absorb more power?"
Hyotei looked at Tenmeng with disdain, "Move aside, let me do it. What kind of transformation can you achieve by absorbing more energy at a time like this? It's better to take advantage of the fact that your soul bone is not yet fully formed, even if it means sacrificing a little power, to try to reach a higher limit."
Huo Yuhao, who was desperately absorbing the essence of the Ice Emperor, couldn't even scream, let alone sense what was happening outside. He only felt that the pain in his body had inexplicably intensified...
Why isn't this over yet...?
