Chapter 269 The Second Eternal Soul Contract
The fragrant, ethereal flower abruptly stopped its massive, swaying avatar, turning its entire form toward the eight-cornered ice grass, and asked in shock, "Eight-cornered? What are you talking about? That person came back to pick you up?"
"Are you sure he's not just coming here to kill you and take your spirit ring?"
"You talk too much all day long, never use your brain or cultivate, you're just bored. No, you're a flower, you don't have a brain at all. If that person wanted to kill us, he would have done it already. Didn't you notice before that the Snow Maiden's cultivation level inside him was much higher than ours?" the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass said disdainfully.
Upon hearing this, Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item fell silent.
It felt that what the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass said made a lot of sense. Although it sounded like it was scolding it for being brainless, it really couldn't refute it.
"ha!"
It's unclear which flower couldn't resist breaking the silence.
"What you said makes a lot of sense, but why did you go with this human, Bajiao? Aren't I enough for you to play with you and chat with you every day? Is it because Youyou can't satisfy you? How could you do this? Waaah~" After a while, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin started acting up again.
"Are you willing to remain trapped in this place for the rest of your life as a magical herb?" the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass retorted.
"Then why don't we stay there? The spiritual energy here is abundant and extremely conducive to our growth!" Youxiang Qiluo Xiangpin said, puzzled.
The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass simply ignored the Fragrant Fairy Tale.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is indeed a blessed land for plant-type soul beasts, but it also restricts them to staying within its boundaries.
Although they grow at ten times the speed of cultivation, only their power and their origin as immortal herbs increase. If they want to take human form, they still need to cultivate for 100,000 years as usual.
Growing beside the spiritual spring, it developed its intelligence early. Unlike the two immortal herbs, Youxiang Qiluo Xiangpin and Liehuo Xingjiaoshu, the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass was constantly thinking. As its intelligence was fully awakened, the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass also regained the memories of when it was replanted, and knew that there was a vast world beyond the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
Now, an opportunity is right in front of it.
"You chatterbox! I've come to play with you!"
A loud shout silenced the ethereal beauty's incessant chatter.
Ye Nanxiao strode in with an air of indifference, carrying a large sack in his hand.
Following behind Ye Nanxiao, Lan Yuning looked nervously at the Fragrant Qiluo Fairy Product in front of her, which resembled a crystal flower, and tightly held the box containing a petal of the Fragrant Qiluo Fairy Product in her hand.
"Human, human, why are you here again?" The fragrant Qiluo Immortal Flower shook its body, and a faint pink light shimmered on its surface.
When the Fragrant Fairy Flower noticed the Snow Emperor floating beside Ye Nanxiao, the entire flower trembled violently, and all the petals immediately closed.
"You, you snow woman, why are you here again?"
The voice of Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin was tinged with a sob. It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid of Xue Di, who had almost sent her away.
"Chatty flower? Why are you covering your face? Are you shy? Is my charm that great?" Ye Nanxiao touched his face and said narcissistically.
Noticing the trembling of the plant-like spirit beasts before her, Xue Di's lips curled up slightly, her playful nature stirring within her, and she released a wisp of her own aura.
Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, and the temperature at the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire suddenly dropped.
Liehuo Xingjiao shrank herself into a dumpling, not daring to reveal the slightest breath, for fear that the Snow Emperor would freeze her.
"You, you, you, what do you want to do, Snow Woman! Let me tell you! With the blessing of the spring, I, I, I am not afraid of you!" Yuuka Kira Fairy deliberately clenched one of her petals into a fist and waved it slightly.
"Oh? What do you want, you talkative flower?" Xue Di gently floated to the front of Youxiang Qiluo Immortal, her jade finger lightly touching the petals of Youxiang Qiluo Immortal.
"Oh dear! I was wrong, Snow Maiden, please forgive me!" The entire flower-like body of the Fragrant Fairy Flower bent up from the middle.
Facing the Snow Empress, who was originally a 700,000-year-old soul beast, Youxiang Qiluo Immortal felt an immense pressure pressing down on her.
"What's wrong with the Fragrant Silk Fairy Delicacy?" Lan Yuning asked, her pretty face full of confusion.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the Snow Empress, who was engrossed in her playful mood, and then at the Fragrant Silk Fairy, who was trying to please her, and said, "Perhaps she's having a conversation with her inner self?"
Lan Yuning nodded, seemingly understanding, and asked, "How long will it take for it to recover from this condition?"
"Maybe it'll be fine in a bit?" Ye Nanxiao said, stroking his chin.
After giving Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item a slight fright, Xue Di hung it back on Ye Nanxiao's back.
Lan Yuning stood quietly next to the wilted Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Delicacy, holding a small box in her hands. She greeted it somewhat nervously, "Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Delicacy, hello."
Ye Nanxiao walked up to the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, waved his hand, and smiled, "Do you still have the idea of coming with me?"
"Without further ado, how do you become an existence like the Snow Maiden?" The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass suddenly lit up, its rhomboid branches and leaves resembling crystal-clear ice crystals, and the cold air from the icy spring transformed into a long stream that enveloped the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.
The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass didn't exchange any pleasantries with Ye Nanxiao; it immediately prepared itself to become a spirit.
Snow Empress raised an eyebrow, wrapped her left arm around Ye Nanxiao's neck, and pointed at the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass with the other. "Since you've made your decision, then I'll lend you a hand!"
A beam of white light shone from the Snow Emperor's fingertip and landed on the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.
The dense soul power fluctuations transformed into rings of ice-blue light that spread outwards.
Snow Emperor flew to the sky above the Frozen Spring and gently clasped his hands together in front of him.
Waterspouts rose from the frigid spring, swirling around the Snow Emperor.
Snow Empress glanced at Lan Yuning, who was still standing beside Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item, and slightly changed the hand seal with her left hand. A blizzard immediately enveloped the Frosty Ice Spring.
"Has it begun? Octagon has finally taken this step." Youxiang Qiluo Fragrance sighed in a human-like way.
Sensing Lan Yuning standing beside her, Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item asked, "Little human, who are you?"
Hearing the fragrant Qiluo Fairy speaking to her, Lan Yuning quickly opened the box in her hand, revealing the flower petals inside.
"Hmm? Is this a petal from Youyou? Does Youyou know you, little human?" Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin asked.
Lan Yuning gently placed the petals from the box onto the enormous, crystal-like petals of the Fragrant Jade Flower, bowed respectfully, and said, "Senior, this petal was left to me by my grandfather. My grandfather was a florist, and he once received your life-saving grace!"
The fragrant and exquisite fairy product emitted a faint light, breaking down the petals and absorbing them into its body.
"A gardener? I do seem to have encountered such a human during the short time I was lost in thought." The fragrant fairy flower swayed slowly.
"But let's not talk about that now. Youyou should protect the Eight-Cornered Dharma first."
All the petals of the fragrant and exquisite fairy flower bloomed, and a faint halo emanated from the stamen.
A thin protective shield immediately enveloped the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.
"Ah Jiao, Ah Jiao, stop pretending to be dead and hurry up and do it, or Qi Luo will scold you!"
Upon hearing this, the fiery apricot blossom trembled slightly, reluctantly unfurling its petals and releasing a surge of energy that merged into the protective shield created by the fragrant and exquisite fairy product.
With the two immortal herbs leading the way, streams of energy rose from the ground and merged into the protective shield.
The immortal herbs of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire spontaneously contributed their strength to send off the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.
Amidst the blizzard, the light emanating from the eight-cornered ice grass gradually receded and concentrated in its stamen.
The water chestnut-shaped branches and leaves continued to shrink, and a strand of soul power slowly descended upon Ye Nanxiao.
"Thank you for choosing me." Ye Nanxiao smiled, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and made a hand seal in front of him.
The intense cold air caused the temperature of the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to drop sharply.
The fiery apricot blossoms shivered, muttering, "It's freezing to death, flowers!"
A stream of energy rose from the Blazing Yang Spring and connected to the delicate flower of the Fiery Apricot, finally stopping its trembling.
The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass had already made up its mind. Soon, a shrunken Eight-Cornered Ice Grass herb separated from its original plant body, along with a soul bone that emitted a strong soul power fluctuation.
The Snow Emperor landed in front of the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass's origin and said calmly, "Take back the energy that condensed the soul bone. His body doesn't need a soul bone. Condense your origin into a single point and integrate it."
"Why? Don't humans all like the soul bones we condense from our origin?" the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass asked, puzzled.
"That's another human. He's special. Today is your first day at the academy, so I'll explain the special circumstances of this household to you." The Snow Empress patted her enormous chest and said, looking every bit the mistress of the house.
After a series of soul power transmissions, the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass finally understood what kind of monster it had chosen, and also realized the identity of the Snow Emperor.
The Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass obediently returned the soul bone to its origin, shattering the soul bone that it had nurtured for many years and transforming it back into primordial energy.
A blood-red spirit ring slowly appeared above Ye Nanxiao and landed on him.
"Soul Ring, trap the fox." Xue Di couldn't help but laugh when she saw this.
Sensing the immense energy brought about by the sacrifice of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, the large fox lying at the bottom of the sealed ice mountain slowly got up and yawned loudly.
Then it stretched and yawned, raised its front paw and tapped the sealed iceberg, a thoughtful look appearing in its large beast eyes.
As the crimson soul ring on Ye Nanxiao's body gradually solidified, the essence of the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass was also completely integrated into Ye Nanxiao's body.
Inside Ye Nanxiao's body, the giant fox raised its two front paws and scooped up the sealed ice mountain twice. Then, nine energy-like tails extended from the sealed ice mountain and wrapped around the soul of the octagonal ice grass.
Strange characters rose from the giant fox's body and gradually seeped into the soul of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.
The soul of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass slowly changed, transforming from its plant form into the appearance of a cute little boy.
A point of light slowly appeared on the forehead of the octagonal ice grass.
A small, phantom-like fox slowly burrowed into the body of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.
Within the consciousness of the Octagonal Ice Grass, Ye Nanxiao's voice echoed: "Eternal Soul Pact, complete!"
The second Eternal Soul Contract: Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass!
