Chapter 59 Twin Martial Souls.
Looking at the token in Huo Yuhao's hand, Shui Yun'er frowned slightly, and a hint of confusion flashed in her clear, watery eyes.
She asked softly, "These tokens were made by me using some special ice crystals. There are many of these ice crystals, and I have a lot in stock. Are you interested in these ice crystals?"
As soon as Shui Yun'er finished speaking, she gracefully waved her slender arm, and then a huge, basin-sized piece of ancient ice marrow suddenly appeared on the wooden table.
Huo Yuhao's eyes widened instantly; he could hardly believe his eyes. Reflected by the icy marrow, the entire room seemed to be enveloped in a faint blue light.
The instant the shard of ice appeared, Huo Yuhao could clearly feel his second martial soul becoming active, and his body actually began to actively absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
Shui Yun'er's voice slowly rang in Huo Yuhao's ears: "I have studied these ice crystals for a long time, but I still do not fully understand their true purpose. It is not only because they are as hard as iron, but also because they are crystal clear, like gemstones. Therefore, I have made these ice crystals into tokens and various exquisite ornaments."
Huo Yuhao's heart pounded. He took a deep breath and said to Shui Yun'er with a hint of excitement, "Senior Shui, I must confess that these ice crystals are extremely important to me; they have immeasurable value. Therefore, I urgently need a large quantity of these ice crystals. The more the better. In exchange, I promise you that as long as it is within my power, whatever your request is, I will do my utmost to fulfill it."
Huo Yuhao's words were full of sincerity.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Shui Yun'er's clear, beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, as if she were deep in thought. She asked softly, "Is it really possible to make any promise?" There was a hint of probing in her voice.
Huo Yuhao nodded firmly, his eyes revealing an unwavering determination: "A gentleman's word is his bond, and I, Huo Yuhao, will never go back on my word."
Upon hearing this, Shui Yun'er smiled faintly, seemingly satisfied with Huo Yuhao's answer.
"Alright, a promise is a promise. Since you've said so, I agree to your terms. However, you must first tell me what these ice crystals are? Why are you so concerned about them? To me, they are just ordinary ice crystals."
Shui Yun'er's voice carried a hint of doubt, and her eyes sparkled with a thirst for knowledge.
In response to Shui Yun'er's question, Huo Yuhao patiently explained, "These ice crystals are called Ten-Thousand-Year Frost Marrow, an extremely precious natural treasure with ice attributes. They are not ordinary ice crystals, but rather crystals that have been naturally condensed over ten thousand years, containing extremely rich ice attribute energy."
"However, these millennia-old ice marrows have one special characteristic: only soul masters with extreme ice attributes and ice-attribute soul beasts can absorb them. For other soul masters or soul beasts, these ice crystals are just like ordinary ice blocks, and they cannot gain any benefit from them."
Upon hearing the term "Ultimate Ice," Shui Yun'er frowned slightly and asked again, "Ultimate Ice? What exactly is this so-called Ultimate Ice attribute? It sounds very special."
Her voice was full of curiosity; clearly, Huo Yuhao had used far too many unfamiliar words today, each one piquing her interest.
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, as if he had already anticipated Shui Yun'er's reaction.
"The so-called ultimate ice refers to the ultimate power within the ice attribute. For example, the power of ultimate ice has a significant effect on non-ultimate ice attribute soul masters and soul masters of other attributes. Under the same level, a soul master with the ultimate attribute can almost crush other soul masters."
"So, you're the legendary Soul Master who possesses the ultimate ice power?" Shui Yun'er asked curiously, her eyes sparkling with longing and curiosity for the unknown.
"That's right, Senior Shui, my second martial soul, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, is the legendary ultimate ice martial soul!" Huo Yuhao answered confidently, his voice revealing a hint of pride.
"What? A second martial soul? You mean, you have twin martial souls!" Shui Yun'er's voice was filled with surprise and disbelief, her big, bright eyes wide open.
Huo Yuhao nodded, and he released his Spirit Eye Martial Soul and Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Martial Soul respectively. The Spirit Eye Martial Soul emitted a faint blue light, while the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Martial Soul released a bone-chilling cold. The two completely different powers intertwined on Huo Yuhao's body, forming a strange harmony.
Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Huo Yuhao's two martial souls, Shui Yun'er was once again dumbfounded.
It has to be said that even though she had made ample mental preparations, Huo Yuhao still refreshed Shui Yun'er's understanding of genius time and time again. Huo Yuhao's talent and strength far exceeded those of his peers, and even many senior soul masters could hardly catch up with him.
At less than seven years old, Huo Yuhao's strength had already grown to a level that left even himself speechless. Just a few months ago, Huo Yuhao was able to kill a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast with his own strength, which was almost unheard of in the soul master world.
This afternoon, Huo Yuhao displayed astonishing combat prowess, single-handedly defeating a Soul Master and three Soul Venerable experts. Such a feat is difficult for even many veteran Soul Masters to achieve.
The Spirit Hall truly lives up to its reputation as the number one power in the world; it actually possesses such a peerless genius with extraordinary talent. Shui Yun'er sighed inwardly, knowing that Huo Yuhao's future was limitless.
Fortunately, the genius in front of her is her daughter's "boyfriend." If Huo Yuhao were her enemy, Shui Yun'er probably wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully.
Ahem, as for why Shui Yun'er thinks Huo Yuhao is her daughter's boyfriend, we don't need to worry about those details.
Anyway, the three kids have such a good relationship, it would be a shame if Huo Yuhao didn't become her son-in-law. If Huo Yuhao really did become her son-in-law, Shui Yun'er would give the entire Tianshui Academy as a dowry to Huo Yuhao, and he wouldn't lose out.
Thinking of this, Shui Yun'er looked at Huo Yuhao with a touch of affection, as if she were looking at her own son: "Alright, Yuhao, since you need these ice crystals so much, then come with me, I'll take you to see the source of these ice crystals."
Looking at Shui Yun'er's gaze, Huo Yuhao had a strange feeling for some reason.
However, he didn't pay attention to these details and followed Soo Yoon-ah and the two sisters towards the door.
After passing through the campus of Tianshui Academy, Huo Yuhao led the two sisters in following Shui Yun'er's footsteps. They wandered along winding paths, bypassing the library and teaching buildings. About half an hour later, they finally arrived at the back mountain of Tianshui Academy.
Upon entering this place, Huo Yuhao immediately felt a bone-chilling cold. If the temperature in other parts of Tianshui City was generally around five degrees Celsius, then the temperature here had reached minus ten degrees Celsius, as if it were another world.
A cold wind howled past, carrying a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine. Huo Yuhao could even see his own breath condensing into frost in the air.
In addition, upon arriving here, Huo Yuhao immediately felt his Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Martial Soul become more active than ever before. As if sensing some kind of strong resonance, his Martial Soul surged within his body, and streams of icy power coursed through his bloodline.
This feeling was incredibly exciting, because he knew that his martial spirit would only react this way when faced with extremely cold environments.
At the same time, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea also exclaimed in surprise: "Yuhao, there is an extremely large amount of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow buried under this mountain. The quantity is so large that it is somewhat terrifying. It seems that the foundation of the entire mountain is made of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow!"
