Chapter 210: God-Making Plan, Snow Empress and Ice Empress Take Action, Searching for Tianmeng Ice Silkworm
[The Pope Herself]: Ah Qing, leave this matter to me. I'll help you investigate it.
[Dad Douluo]: Thanks, Royal Sister.
[The Pope Herself]: No need to thank me. You can give me some more specific information.
Bibi Dong naturally didn't have methods from another world.
But she had the power of Spirit Hall.
Using the power of this world, she might still be able to investigate some information.
[Dad Douluo]: For specifics, you can search for the timeline of when Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was captured—whether it was before Tang San's story began or after Tang San became a god.
[Dad Douluo]: If he's still in the Extreme North, I still have a chance to find him. If he's already in Star Dou Great Forest, then with my current strength, I have no chance of getting close at all.
[The Pope Herself]: Alright, I understand.
No one else dared to speak, because they were also afraid of letting something slip.
At the same time, each of them was secretly guessing what kind of identity this Royal Sister had in another world.
…
Extreme North, deep within an ice cave.
The Ice Empress looked at the words "Tianmeng Ice Silkworm" on the panel, and her entire scorpion body froze.
Her scorpion tail hung in midair, completely still.
Her eyes were filled with astonishment; even the cold aura around her became somewhat chaotic.
The Snow Empress immediately noticed something was wrong and turned her head slightly, asking softly, "Bing'er, what's wrong? Why does your face look so bad?"
"..."
After quite a while, the Ice Empress finally came back to her senses.
Her voice carried a trace of disbelief, along with a hint of gritted teeth.
"Tianmeng Ice Silkworm… this name feels very familiar to me."
In her mind, a creature on her menu list instantly flashed.
A big worm.
Always hiding in the deepest ice crevices of the Extreme North.
It had no attack power at all; it only knew how to run and hide.
She had hunted that worm for a very long time, always wanting to eat it to supplement her cultivation.
But every time, it slipped away.
"Hmph!"
Her scorpion tail slammed heavily onto the ice surface, producing a loud bang.
"I remember now! It's that big worm I've hunted for several thousand years—the one I've always wanted to eat!"
"That useless worm that only knows how to hide, with no attack power at all!"
The Snow Empress was also stunned, her eyes full of shock.
"The worm you've hunted for thousands of years? Could it be the million-year soul beast Tianmeng Ice Silkworm that Ah Qing mentioned?"
"Impossible!"
The Ice Empress immediately refuted, her tone full of disbelief.
"That worm, when I hunted him back then, didn't even have fluctuations of a hundred-thousand-year cultivation. How could it possibly be a million-year soul beast?!"
"If he really were a million-year soul beast, how could he have been chased all over the place by me?!"
Yet, in her heart, a faint sense of unease began to surface.
That worm, although it had no attack power, possessed extraordinarily tenacious vitality.
No matter how she hunted or sealed it off, it always managed to slip away right under her nose.
Could it be… that damn worm really is a million-year soul beast?
Had he been hiding his cultivation all along?
For the first time, the Ice Empress began to doubt the prey she had hunted for thousands of years.
[The Pope Herself]: Ah Qing, why do you suddenly want a second martial soul?
[Dad Douluo]: Nothing much. I just feel that a second martial soul can give me a higher ceiling, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm is also connected to other great opportunities.
[The Pope Herself]: Great opportunities?
In the original work, after Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sacrificed itself, he also took Huo Yuhao to the Extreme North, where they found the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion, which was the Ice Empress.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm used a god-making plan to persuade the Ice Empress, whose limit was approaching, to sacrifice herself to Huo Yuhao.
In this way, the Ice Empress directly became Huo Yuhao's second martial soul.
The first soul ring she granted him was four hundred thousand years old.
She also gave him a four-hundred-thousand-year Ice Jade Empress Scorpion torso soul bone.
With the Ice Empress, Huo Yuhao directly soared to the heavens in one step and embarked on the path to godhood.
Later, he successfully ascended to the God Realm.
Back then, the soul beasts represented by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, the Ice Empress, and the Snow Empress among his soul rings followed him to the God Realm.
[Dad Douluo]: Speaking of which, Bingbing and Ice and Snow Maiden should know this matter best.
[Bingbing]: !!!
[Ice and Snow Maiden]: ...
…
"Hiss!!!"
Everyone in front of the chat group's light screen gasped sharply.
Just what kind of situation was Huo Yuhao in ten thousand years later?
A million-year first soul ring, a second martial soul, a four-hundred-thousand-year first soul ring, a four-hundred-thousand-year soul bone…
Even a Titled Douluo wouldn't dare imagine such a configuration, right?!
…
"Sacrifice? God-making plan?!"
Both the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress were stunned.
The Ice Empress's gaze locked tightly onto the chat group interface projected on the ice surface in front of her.
Every word was like a thunderclap, exploding in her mind.
In the future, would she actually sacrifice herself to a human?
Become that human's second martial soul?
And even provide a four-hundred-thousand-year soul ring and torso bone?
She was one of the rulers of the Extreme North, the emperor of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan, a fierce beast with almost four hundred thousand years of cultivation.
And yet she would voluntarily sacrifice herself to a human?
This was simply absurd!
"Xue'er, you… also sacrificed yourself to that Huo Yuhao?!"
The Ice Empress looked at the Snow Empress in equal shock.
"..."
The Snow Empress fell into silence.
After a moment, she looked at her and asked seriously, "Bing'er, are you really nearing your limit?"
"I…"
The Ice Empress paused for a moment.
Then she nodded heavily. "Yes. I have a premonition that I may not be able to survive the upcoming four-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation…"
"Bing'er, why didn't you tell me something like this?"
Hearing this, worry appeared on the Snow Empress's face.
"Sorry, I just didn't want you to worry."
The Ice Empress shook her scorpion pincers.
"Forget about me. He said that in the future, you will also become Huo Yuhao's soul ring. I don't believe you would be defeated, so it's very likely you also sacrificed yourself to that Huo Yuhao."
At this thought, the Ice Empress widened her eyes. "Xue'er, could it be your limit…"
"..."
The Snow Empress fell silent again.
A bitter smile appeared on her beautiful face. "Yes, I also have a premonition that I won't be able to survive the upcoming seven-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation."
At their level, they could naturally sense their own impending death.
It was a kind of indescribable perception.
The Snow Empress also didn't want the Ice Empress to worry, so she had never told her.
She had even once considered transforming into a human.
Hearing the Snow Empress's words, the Ice Empress could no longer remain calm.
Her body trembled slightly.
Her voice carried a faint tremor; she didn't even notice herself. "Xue'er, this god-making plan… can it really be trusted?"
The Snow Empress's fingertips gently brushed across the ice surface, the cold aura at her fingertips showing a trace of subtle instability.
She had witnessed countless storms on the continent and experienced dozens of heavenly tribulations.
She had long been unmoved by anything.
But the words in the chat group just now stirred waves in her heart that had been calm for hundreds of thousands of years.
If this god-making plan were real, then it was their only path to survival.
The Snow Empress's gaze fell on the words on the light screen, her eyes flickering.
After a long silence, she finally spoke slowly, "I don't know either."
"But the details that this person, called Ah Qing, mentioned are far too specific. He even knows about you and me and the situation of the Extreme North, clearly. It doesn't seem fabricated out of thin air."
The Ice Empress's scorpion tail swayed gently, the struggle in her heart nearly overflowing.
To sacrifice herself to a human was something she had never even dared to think about before.
But the allure of the God Realm was simply too great.
"No, Xue'er, I need to go out for a while."
"I'm going to check whether that fat worm is still in the Extreme North, and also figure out this so-called god-making plan!"
However, before she could act, the Snow Empress also spoke.
"Bing'er, this matter involves too much and even touches upon the secret of becoming a god. I will help as well."
The Snow Empress came to her side. "Next, I will mobilize all the soul beasts in the core region of the Extreme North to try to search for Tianmeng Ice Silkworm."
