Seeing the two people who looked exactly like those in the murals of the Spirit Pagoda, Su Mo felt much more at ease. It was definitely the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor.
"Hey, kid, where is this?"
After looking around, Hyotei put his hands on his hips and said to Su Mo in an annoyed tone.
Seeing the impatient look on the Ice Emperor's face, Su Mo was about to speak when he saw the Snow Emperor frown slightly, her tone carrying a hint of uncertainty, "Bing'er, this place... seems to be the undead demiplane of Electrolux."
"The undead demiplane?"
Hyotei paused for a moment, then unleashed a massive amount of spiritual power.
A moment later, Hyotei's eyes lit up and she exclaimed in surprise, "It really does seem to be a demi-plane of the undead!"
Hyotei was very familiar with the undead demiplane.
Back then, they and Huo Yuhao relied on the undead demiplane to escape one deadly situation after another.
However, after Huo Yuhao grew up, the undead demiplane became of little use.
In addition, the undead demiplane was full of mindless and despised undead, so Huo Yuhao gradually forgot about them.
If it weren't for Xue Di's reminder, Bing Di really wouldn't have remembered it for a moment.
"The changes here are really significant!"
Looking at the undead demiplane, which was completely different from what she remembered, Hyotei's face showed a hint of nostalgia.
"really!"
Xue Di nodded in agreement.
The undead demiplane of yesteryear was gloomy, cold, and desolate, unlike now, which is full of life with mountains and rivers.
"..."
Seeing the two people completely ignoring his presence and reminiscing about the past, Su Mo was speechless. He then cleared his throat and said, "Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, aren't you curious about why you're here?"
Upon hearing Su Mo call out her and Xue Di's names, Bing Di's face flashed with surprise. "Little brat, you know us?"
"Of course, your heroic deeds in resisting the beast tide together with Spirit Ice Douluo are known to all, and you are the object of admiration of all human soul masters."
Hyotei didn't catch the sarcasm in Su Mo's words, thinking that Su Mo was praising them, and quickly waved their hands, "Oh, it's nothing!"
"If those guys from Star Dou Forest hadn't run away so fast back then, they would have been in big trouble."
Looking at Hyotei, who was grinning foolishly, Yuki-tei was speechless.
Hyotei is great in every way, except they're too ambitious.
To prevent the Ice Emperor from further embarrassment, the Snow Emperor quickly sent a telepathic message, "Bing'er, he's mocking us."
"Satire?"
Hyotei was somewhat puzzled, but since Yuki-tei had said so, Hyotei naturally believed her unconditionally.
Hyotei kicked Su Mo in the butt and said irritably, "You little brat, you've got some nerve, daring to talk back to me like that. Believe me or not, I'll eat you up."
After saying that, Hyotei raised his hands above his head, putting on a fierce and menacing look.
"Do you think I should praise those who help humans harm their own kind?"
Su Mo stared intently at the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor, speaking each word with a look that seemed to want to devour the Ice Emperor alive.
Sensing the overwhelming hatred Su Mo harbored towards the two of them, Xue Di remained silent for a moment before slowly saying with a hint of uncertainty, "Are you perhaps a soul beast in human form?"
Su Mo nodded, readily acknowledging his identity as a soul beast in human form, "My name is Su Mo, and my true form is a source beast with 100,000 years of cultivation!"
Upon hearing Su Mo introduce himself, Bingdi immediately looked enlightened, "So you're a transformed Origin Beast. No wonder Xue'er and I couldn't tell your origin."
Upon hearing this, Xue Di's face showed a hint of surprise. This was the first time she had ever heard the term "Source Beast".
"Bing'er, do you know about Source Beasts?"
Snow Empress turned to look at Ice Empress.
"Ok!"
Ice Emperor nodded, crossed his arms, and said smugly, "Xue'er, the so-called Source Beasts are actually elemental Soul Beasts formed from pure soul power."
"As for elemental soul beasts, Xue'er, you should know them best. After they transform into human form, they are almost indistinguishable from humans."
Listening to Hyotei's eloquent speech, Yuki-tei looked at Su Mo with a hint of warmth in her eyes.
Seeing the kind gaze from the Snow Emperor, Su Mo was taken aback at first, but quickly understood why.
Because elemental spirit beasts are born and raised in nature, they have an almost instinctive longing for their fellow creatures.
Unless they are two completely incompatible elemental soul beasts, they are likely to be able to coexist peacefully.
There's nothing we can do about it; elemental spirit beasts are ten times rarer than true dragons in the Douluo Continent.
The Snow Empress's Ice and Snow Maiden clan can be considered a type of elemental soul beast, so I can barely be considered a distant relative of the Snow Empress.
Just when Su Mo thought he had it in the bag, he looked up and saw Hyotei squinting at him with an unfriendly gaze.
Before Su Mo could figure out what was going on, he heard Ice Emperor say coldly, "Tell me honestly how you summoned us here? And where did you get the coordinates of the undead demiplane?"
Seeing Hyotei's sudden change of expression, Su Mo inwardly grumbled, then took out the words she had prepared in advance.
“I got all of these from Electrolux.”
Upon hearing this, Hyotei and Yukiteri exchanged glances before turning their attention to Su Mo.
After Huo Yuhao ascended to the God Realm, he also tried to find other fragments of Ilex's divine consciousness, but unfortunately, he found nothing, which became a regret for them.
But now they've actually heard news of Electrolux again, how could they not be overjoyed?
If Su Mo had met Electrolux, then it wouldn't be surprising that he could summon their souls from the black hole.
Although Electrolux's strength did not reach the level of a god, there were some things that even the gods might not have heard of.
The broader your perspective, the more you will appreciate the power of Electrolux.
If Electrolux were still alive, perhaps he could help the divine realm.
Thinking of this, Hyotei suppressed her joy and asked impatiently, "You've seen Electrox, where is he now?"
"Electra... he's dead."
Su Mo's answer was like a bucket of cold water, mercilessly extinguishing the joy that had just risen in the hearts of the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Hyotei stood frozen in place, her golden pupils suddenly narrowing, her pretty face gradually turning deathly pale.
Chapter 169 Hyotei: Xue'er, why are you unhappy?
Xue Di also remained silent, her expression becoming extremely grave.
Although she spent less time with Electrolux than with Ice Emperor and Huo Yuhao, Snow Emperor deeply admired Electrolux's selfless act of sacrificing himself to save them and Huo Yuhao.
Hearing the news of Electrolux's death, even the usually calm and composed Xue Di couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
After a long silence, Hyotei forced a smile and said, "It's alright, Xue'er, Old Master Yi should be very happy."
Hyotei seemed to be comforting Yuki-tei, or perhaps convincing himself.
Looking at the two Ice and Snow Emperors, who were both in low spirits, Su Mo already had an answer in his heart about who could become his ally.
Su Mo had deliberately brought up Electrolux in front of the two of them to test their personalities.
Although both Hyotei and Yukiteri were deeply saddened upon hearing the news of Electrolux's death, the emphasis of their emotions differed.
Hyotei's feelings were pure and sincere, while Yuki-tei was sad but felt more regret.
"Tell me, what is your purpose in going through all this trouble to summon us?"
Hyotei took a deep breath, put away the sadness on her face, and looked at Su Mo with a serious expression.
"My purpose? You'll understand once you go to the far north."
Su Mo didn't answer directly, but instead kept everyone in suspense.
Upon hearing this, Xue Di's expression stiffened for a moment, but it quickly disappeared.
"Pretend to be a ghost!"
Looking at Su Mo, who was pretending to be mysterious, Hyotei's pretty face was full of disdain.
Despite their initial disapproval, Hyotei did not reject Su Mo's suggestion.
Having finally returned to Douluo Continent, she also wanted to go back and see her clansmen.
The thought of going home and seeing her beloved junior soon instantly lessened the sadness Hyotei felt over Electrox's death.
With a wave of his hand, the Ice Emperor opened up a spatial passage leading to the core area of the far north.
Seeing this, Su Mo raised her assessment of Hyotei's strength by several levels.
Although, due to their own limitations, Hyotei and Yuki-tei can only unleash power at the peak of the quasi-god level at most.
But looking across the Douluo Continent, the only quasi-gods who can achieve a level like Ice Emperor, besides Di Tian who is already proficient in the Dao of Space, are Ning Bei, who possesses the legacy of Electrolux.
Seeing that Su Mo didn't speak, Hyotei thought he was scared and proudly crossed his arms.
"gone!"
After giving Su Mo a friendly reminder, Hyotei strode into the passage.
Seeing this, Su Mo quickly followed, glancing thoughtfully at Xue Di as he passed by her.
Although Xue Di had concealed it well, the changes in her facial expression still did not escape Su Mo's notice.
When the former ruler of the far north heard that he was to return to the far north, his expression changed drastically. Su Mo would never believe that there was nothing fishy going on.
Based on the excitement Hyotei had just displayed, Su Mo had already guessed most of the details of the matter.
……
"It's so cold!"
As soon as Su Mo stepped out of the spatial passage, he was shivering from the howling cold wind.
Su Mo dared not be negligent and immediately poured his soul power into the wrist guard he was wearing. A circle of orange-yellow protective shield spread out from the wrist guard, isolating Su Mo from the surrounding environment.
Even though he had prepared a soul tool to keep warm, Su Mo still felt a slight chill.
