Crack, crack, the soul-guiding shield shattered, and ice surged in.
A moment later, all three were covered in ice, and the extreme cold permeated their muscles and blood vessels, rendering them unable to move.
After seeing that the three had lost their ability to resist, Huo Yuhao silently surveyed the seawater, which had completely frozen into ice. He felt that the three evil soul masters and those vengeful spirits were frozen in the ice, somewhat like mosquitoes sealed in amber.
"Senior, have you killed them all by now?" Bai Xiuxiu swam over and asked Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao shook his head and replied, "They are still alive and I haven't killed them. However, I will arrange for someone to kill them."
Bai Xiuxiu asked curiously, "Senior, who is that person? Why did you send that person to kill these three evil soul masters?"
She was puzzled, thinking that this senior was perfectly capable of killing the three of them.
"You'll find out soon enough," Huo Yuhao replied dismissively. He then contacted the consciousness of the plane, asking it to help him contact Ye Guyi and teleport her over to kill the evil soul master, thereby gaining an increase in strength.
The plane's consciousness was unaware that Tang San was observing it near Douluo Star, so it immediately agreed.
Huo Yuhao then patiently waited for Ye Guyi to arrive.
Princess Liya stepped forward and said respectfully, "Senior Ice God, thank you for saving my life. I, Liya, will always remember your life-saving grace. If there is anything you need me to do, please feel free to ask!"
Huo Yuhao thought to himself, "I want you to help me overthrow the Sea God faith," but he felt that saying it like that was a bit too direct. Moreover, the other party was not the leader of the Mermaid Clan, but only the heir, and did not have absolute say in the Mermaid Clan.
Fortunately, within the range of mental detection, a mermaid with an extremely powerful aura was on her way. Without a doubt, the other party should be the sea princess.
So he said casually, "Your mother is coming soon, and I'd like her to help me with some things later."
Liya was somewhat taken aback. She had been so desperate that she had cut off her mental communication with her mother and ignored her surroundings. Now, after sensing her surroundings briefly, she realized that her mother was indeed on her way, and a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.
"Don't worry, Mother will definitely not refuse you," Liya said.
A moment later, a female voice rang out: "Liya!"
A mermaid appeared, wearing a golden crown, with a golden fish tail, and looking like a middle-aged beauty.
With an anxious look on her face, she looked around and finally fixed her gaze on the mermaid princess, Lia.
"Thank goodness, you're still alive!"
Chapter 637 We must repay the Ice God's kindness!
When Liya sent out her last mental signal and severed the long-distance mental communication between the two, the sea princess was on the verge of collapse.
On one hand, it was because Liya was her youngest daughter, and as a mother, she didn't want her to die at the hands of an evil spirit master.
On the other hand, it is because Liya possesses golden blood and is her successor, which is extremely important to the mermaid race and cannot be lost.
Soul beasts with powerful bloodlines have a higher potential.
Moreover, the strength of a soul beast is largely determined by the power of its bloodline.
Taking the mermaid and the ice silkworm as an example, if both have the same cultivation level, the mermaid will be stronger than the ice silkworm because the mermaid's bloodline is stronger.
The mermaid race must be led by mermaids with golden bloodlines, mainly because mermaids with golden bloodlines have enormous potential and can survive several heavenly tribulations, thereby gaining greater strength and protecting the entire icy sea.
She is already a sea spirit beast with 600,000 years of cultivation. It is unknown whether she can withstand the next heavenly tribulation. If she dies in the heavenly tribulation, then Liya will have to lead the entire mermaid race.
"Come here, let me see how badly you are injured." The Sea Princess beckoned. In fact, as a 600,000-year-old spiritual sea spirit beast, she had already scanned Liya's body with her powerful spiritual energy the moment she saw her.
Although Liya was injured, fortunately she was not seriously hurt. The reason she asked the other party to come over was simply to have some contact with her daughter who almost died.
Liya quickly swam over and hugged the sea princess, resting her head on her shoulder, and said, "Mom, thanks to Senior Ice God, I was able to survive the attack of the evil soul master."
The sea princess reached out and stroked Liya's head, somewhat puzzled: "Senior Ice God?"
Her gaze followed Huo Yuhao, who was clad in ice-blue armor. The man exuded an extremely peculiar bloodline aura, which made her feel an irresistible sense of submission, as if he were a born superior, while she, the possessor of the golden bloodline, was merely a subordinate.
This is definitely not human!
Could the other party be a divine beast with powerful bloodline? That's why it has the title of god?
No, how could there be divine beasts? Soul beasts cannot become gods; this is an ironclad rule. As someone who has witnessed the grandeur of two generations of sea gods ruling the ocean, her experience is far richer than Bai Xiuxiu's, so she naturally knows this.
She guessed that the other party was probably similar to Di Tian, an extremely powerful soul beast. Di Tian was not a god, but he had the title of Beast God.
Liya stretched out her hand with a grin and pointed to the towering ice mountain not far away: "That is the masterpiece of Senior Ice God, Mom. Look, those evil soul masters who bullied us have been completely frozen by Lord Ice God. In a little while, Senior Ice God will have them executed."
The sea princess's gaze followed the direction of Liya's finger, settling on the majestic iceberg. Feeling as insignificant as an ant, she was immediately filled with shock.
In fact, as she approached the location, she noticed that the surrounding seawater was rapidly cooling down and freezing into icebergs.
But she was too anxious to save her daughter at the time to pay much attention.
After all, the Arctic Ocean is a sea area close to the far north, and occasionally blizzards from the core of the far north sweep into the Arctic Ocean region, causing this phenomenon.
According to Liya, this was entirely created by the "Ice God Senior" alone, which is to say that she did something comparable to the great power of nature with her own power.
She raised her head and looked at Huo Yuhao not far away, and said respectfully, "Senior Ice God, thank you for rescuing Liya. Liya is my successor. If something happens to her, it will mean that the golden bloodline will be cut off. For the mermaid race, such a blow would be devastating."
Whether from the perspective of a mother or a clan chief, I should repay your kindness properly. If there is anything you need me to do, please don't hesitate to ask!
Yes, she's still very sensible; she knows to repay kindness and isn't an ingrate.
Huo Yuhao nodded to himself, quite satisfied with the Sea Princess's words.
So he immediately said, "I want to promote the Ice God faith among the sea spirit beasts, and I need your help with this."
Upon hearing this, the Sea Princess was stunned. After a moment, an incredulous look appeared on her face: "Promote the faith in the Ice God? Senior Ice God, are you sure you want me to do this for you?"
Her voice trembled as she spoke, for a simple reason: this was undoubtedly an extremely taboo thing to do, which could basically be regarded as defying the sea god.
Although she didn't know what the use of faith was.
However, both the first and second generation Sea Gods, including Tang San, promoted the worship of the Sea God by the Sea Spirit Beasts and did not allow them to worship other gods.
Having lived for many years, she could naturally realize through this detail that faith is extremely important to the gods.
"Of course!" Huo Yuhao said calmly.
"By doing this, you are competing with the Sea God for faith. Once the Sea God finds out, you and the merfolk will be completely destroyed in his wrath!" She pleaded the point, trying to change Huo Yuhao's mind, since there was no good outcome in opposing the Sea God.
But Huo Yuhao remained silent, his will as firm as a rock, unmoved.
The sea princess looked troubled. She gritted her teeth and said, word by word, "Alright, Senior Ice God, if you insist on doing this, then I am willing to help you. After all, I must repay the kindness of saving Liya."
However, I implore you to allow me to remove Lia and some of the mermaids from this matter and to keep them out of it.
She didn't want Liya to be involved in this conflict with the sea god.
After all, going against the gods is like throwing an egg against a rock. Even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who had cultivated for millions of years, still died under the gods' scheme.
This matter was also talked about with great relish by the Sea God's family, and spread everywhere to warn the Sea Spirit Beasts not to oppose the Sea God.
Upon learning of this, the Sea Princess felt only deep sorrow. Although she disliked the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, even someone as powerful as him was being manipulated by the gods. If she were to embark on the path of fighting against the gods, would she have any chance of survival?
But she hopes her daughter can bring some mermaids to life.
Huo Yuhao gave the Sea Princess a deep look, thinking to himself that her faith in Tang San wasn't strong enough; otherwise, she would have firmly rejected him.
That makes sense. Back then, the old sea god relied on force to conquer everywhere, forcing the vast majority of sea spirit beasts and sea spirit masters to believe in him, thus gathering the power of faith and eventually becoming a god.
But faith obtained through force is not necessarily very stable.
Sea Soul Masters are one thing—they have short lifespans, pass down their faith in the Sea God through generations, and can be tamed—but their total number is far too small compared to Sea Soul Beasts.
Chapter 638 Become my soul!
Sea spirit beasts generally have long lifespans, and those sea spirit beasts that were conquered by the old sea god and forced to worship him are not necessarily very devout believers.
Because there are so many sea spirit beasts, even if there aren't many devout believers, the sheer number of them means that even though each sea spirit beast provides a small amount of faith power, the total amount adds up to a considerable sum, enough for the old sea god to condense his divine position.
As for the second-generation Sea God Tang San, his prestige is nowhere near that of the old Sea God. Nowadays, the sea spirit beasts only worship the Sea God's position on him, so it wouldn't make much difference if someone else became the Sea God.
Huo Yuhao said, "I can understand your feelings, but are you sure you want Liya to stop promoting the Ice God faith? Promoting the Ice God faith could lead to becoming a god."
"Become a god?" The sea princess was somewhat taken aback and subconsciously said, "Soul beasts are not allowed to become gods; that's an ironclad rule."
Huo Yuhao remained silent, only slightly concealing the aura of this place with his dimensional consciousness, before releasing a divine sense that swept directly into the Sea Princess's spiritual sea.
Give the Sea Princess a little bit of a shock to her divine sense!
The powerful pressure emanating from the divine sense caused the Sea Princess's body to stiffen.
She could sense that this was a spiritual force that was undoubtedly superior to her own.
As a spiritual sea spirit beast with 600,000 years of cultivation, she is much older than Xiaobai, the former mount of the Sea God.
Therefore, she had actually felt the powerful pressure emanating from the strong spiritual power of the two generations of sea gods, and she also knew that the spiritual power of gods was called divine consciousness.
Now, she sensed divine consciousness again, and her mind was shaken.
Soon, Huo Yuhao withdrew his divine sense. The Sea Princess looked at Huo Yuhao with a shocked expression and said in surprise, "Senior Ice God, you actually possess divine sense!"
She initially thought that the other party's self-proclaimed title of Ice God was merely like Di Tian's title of Beast God, but in reality, he was neither a deity nor a divine beast.
However, after experiencing the spiritual cleansing, she immediately changed her mind.
"Do you still want Liya to give up promoting the Ice God faith? I can guarantee that both you and Liya will have the opportunity to become gods as long as you help me promote the Ice God faith."
"Once you become gods, you can live forever and no longer need to worry about the tribulation that occurs once every 100,000 years. You are the strongest of the mermaid race, and I can now promise you that you can embark on a path to godhood!" Huo Yuhao said calmly.
For a moment, the sea princess hesitated. She gritted her teeth, her mind racing. Going against the gods was undoubtedly an extremely unwise act. This was an important survival lesson she had learned after the first sea god's war to conquer the ocean.
Now that the other party has already offered benefits, it would be rather unreasonable to propose leaving the merfolk a way out.
She nodded: "Okay, I promise you. But what do you mean by the path to godhood?"
"Sea Princess, I wish you to become my soul spirit," Huo Yuhao transmitted his voice.
He was quite interested in the Sea Princess, a sea spirit beast with 600,000 years of cultivation.
The other party is a mental type, and could become one of the soul spirits of my Spirit Eye Martial Soul.
Currently, his Spirit Eye Martial Soul doesn't have many spirits, which is slightly different from the original story. Now that Elder Yi has survived, coupled with his current extremely strong physical condition, he can fully withstand stronger mental-type spirits.
Even if some primordial power is truly unbearable, it can be sealed away with the help of Elder Yi and Tianmeng.
In the original story, Huo Gua wanted to use the mermaid princess Liya as his soul spirit. He was unwilling to do so because the sea princess, as a mother, was much stronger than Liya, a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
The sea princess was bewildered and somewhat confused. She subconsciously asked telepathically, "What is a soul?"
Huo Yuhao immediately transmitted his voice to explain the concept of soul spirits and their benefits to the other party.
Then he released the Snow Emperor's spirit and transmitted his voice, "This is one of my spirits."
