Chương 78: Chapter 78: Huo Yuhao's First Strange Fire, Profound Ice Cold Flame! (Part -I)
The white flame on the lotus platform had retreated behind a table in the corner, half of its body peeking out as if observing Huo Yuhao and the others.
"You can tell it's very scared, but it hasn't attacked us," Yaolao pondered.
"The cold power of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow is not inferior to it, but it seems to have been absorbing the power of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow in the cave all these years, condensing it on the lotus seat. This is very arduous for it. Why would it do that?" Tianmeng wondered aloud.
"Moreover, I suspect that whether it's the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow or the extra Extreme Ice Crystals in the cave, they were all painstakingly condensed from the external cold power by it over the years. What is it trying to achieve?"
Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment before suddenly saying, "The Ice God's inheritance is on the ice-blue lotus seat. Perhaps it sensed the Ice God's aura and is trying to use external power to revive the Ice God."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, everyone fell silent.
According to Tianmeng, the Ice God had fallen at least tens of thousands of years ago.
In these tens of thousands of years, this white flame had been tirelessly collecting cold power, condensing it into Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, all to revive the one who created it. What an intense and sincere feeling!
"Teacher, if I use the Burning Art to absorb it, will its intelligence be wiped out?" Huo Yuhao asked softly.
"Yes, theoretically it should be like that," Yaolao sighed, his tone mixed with regret, comfort, and pride. "Yuhao, I know what you want to do, and I support you."
Huo Yuhao nodded with a wry smile and said, "Yes, Teacher. If it had no consciousness or attacked us, I might have forcibly absorbed it without any guilt. But now, since I am willing to accept the Ice God's inheritance, I shouldn't harm it because this is the Ice God's last wish, and it's a promise I must keep."
"Yuhao, you're doing the right thing. Even when enhancing your strength, you shouldn't go against your sincere and kind heart. Otherwise, you will inevitably fall into the path of evil. Being able to adhere to this makes me very pleased," Yaolao said with a smile, the regret on his face fading away.
Strange fires are rare, but they are not as important as a kind-hearted disciple. If Huo Yuhao fell into the path of evil like Han Feng, that would be the most unacceptable result.
"Sigh, I didn't expect it to be a wasted trip. It seems we'll have to find another strange fire to upgrade Yuhao's Burning Art," Tianmeng said with some regret.
"Uh, perhaps I have a solution," Electrolux suddenly spoke up from the spiritual sea. "For a powerful yet barely conscious natural spirit like this, it might be possible to use magic to form a master-servant contract. This way, its power will be fully under your control without damaging its intelligence."
Electrolux: How could you just give up? Without me, this place would fall apart sooner or later!
Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. A contract magic—wasn't that what created soul spirits in the original work?
"Contract magic? I've never heard of such a method," Yaolao said, puzzled. "We are both soul entities and rely on Yuhao. Without him, we are finished. How confident are you in this?"
"If it were a fully intelligent being with strong autonomy, I'd be about 80% confident. But this white flame seems to have only basic thinking ability and few distractions. Its childlike nature means the success rate of a contract is 99%," Electrolux explained.
"Alright, please begin," Huo Yuhao said. Yaolao hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"Big Bug, I am just a wisp of divine consciousness. To complete the contract magic, I need to use the power of the seal you've placed in Yuhao's spiritual sea. You can unlock one layer for me to use; I think it should be enough," Electrolux said with a smile.
"Hmph, in the end, you still need to ask for my help?" Tianmeng snorted. A golden-white light ball descended from the spiritual sea, gradually forming into a staff.
An indescribable and terrifying spiritual pressure emanated from the golden staff and then fell into a suddenly outstretched hand.
Following the hand, Huo Yuhao and Yaolao saw the figure's appearance clearly. It was an elderly man in a luxurious black robe adorned with golden runes, covered by a white cloak, creating a stark contrast. The cloak's hood was pulled over his head.
"Although most of my memories are still missing, I can still remember how to use the contract magic," Electrolux smiled faintly.
"But even if I can briefly manifest using Big Bug's spiritual power, it will significantly deplete my divine consciousness. I hope you can soon refine that Soul Nurturing Saliva; otherwise, after this spell, I will fall into a long sleep."
Yaolao nodded, "Rest assured, as long as you contribute, we will definitely fulfill our promise."
"Good!" Electrolux no longer hesitated, motioning for Huo Yuhao to sit on the ice-blue lotus seat.
The white flame seemed to want to stop him but was scared back by the sudden release of Bone Spirit Cold Fire from Yaolao. It sensed that the Bone Spirit Cold Fire had a similar power and desired to devour it.
Huo Yuhao sent a kind spiritual wave toward the white flame and then sat cross-legged on the lotus platform. At the same time, a powerful ice-blue light blossomed from the lotus platform, slowly condensing into an illusory ice-blue figure in front of Huo Yuhao.
A faint voice echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind, seemingly explaining the world's ice laws to him. This voice not only appeared in his mind but also imprinted in his spiritual sea.
The white flame buzzed in a series of sounds, seemingly sensing a familiar aura from Huo Yuhao's body— the aura of the Ice God.
Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly opened, and multicolored light beams shot out. Behind him, there was nothing but a strange coldness.
This was the second martial soul given to him by Tianmeng Iceworm, a soul without a soul and no vessel.
At this moment, the ice-blue figure merged with Huo Yuhao's second martial soul and then turned into an ice-blue light, merging into Huo Yuhao's body, making his flesh and bones become semi-transparent ice-blue, like the finest blue crystal.
Electrolux watched the changes in Huo Yuhao and sighed softly, "Indeed, it's the aura of a god. How familiar."
Then, he tapped his staff and said to the white flame hiding in the corner, "Since he has received the Ice God's inheritance, he is your master from now on. Will you form a master-servant contract with him and be inseparable in life and death?"
