**Chapter 184: Conquering the Ice Emperor**
"Huh?"
"How can there be Blue Silver Grass in this climate?"
On a glacier, an ice-blue scorpion emerged from the ground, curiously observing the Blue Silver Grass scattered across the ice.
This scorpion was the Ice Jade Scorpion, one of the three most fearsome beasts of the Extreme North, a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast. (N/E: Correcting the name, as I didn't remember it before, so I'm fixing it in this chapter.)
The Ice Jade Scorpion had currently cultivated for three hundred thousand years, making it far more powerful than Da Ming and Er Ming.
As it observed the Blue Silver Grass growing on the glacier, the Ice Jade Scorpion curiously investigated this strange phenomenon, wanting to understand how it could thrive in such a harsh climate.
After searching for a long time, the Ice Jade Scorpion still couldn't figure out the reason and soon lost interest.
Just as it was about to leave, its emerald-green head suddenly turned back, and at the same time, an icy aura surged from its body, sweeping toward the intruders.
"Chrysanthemum Elder, Ghost Elder!"
Sensing the cold emanating from the Ice Jade Scorpion, Gu Ziyi remained completely unfazed and didn't even need to use his Soul Power to defend himself. He was immune to ice, so ice-based attacks were ineffective against him—unless they caused physical damage through direct impact.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Upon hearing his command, Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately responded.
Buzz—
Buzz—
The two Douluos then sprang into action, directly summoning their Martial Souls.
"Dark Eclipse Domain!"
Immediately after, Yue Guan and Gui Mei unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Skill directly at the Ice Jade Scorpion.
"Ice Empress Armor!"
Sensing the threat from their fusion skill, the Ice Jade Scorpion was startled and quickly activated its protective soul skill.
It hadn't expected these invading human Soul Masters to be so powerful.
Among them, there were actually two who were Titled Douluos!
Buzz—
With the activation of its soul skill, the Ice Jade Scorpion's body was suddenly enveloped in a layer of ice armor with formidable defensive capabilities.
Buzz—
However, the Ice Jade Scorpion soon realized that its defensive soul skill had no effect against the two Douluos' Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
Under the cover of the Two-Layer Immobilization Domain, the Ice Jade Scorpion was instantly trapped in place.
"How is this possible..."
The Ice Jade Scorpion's emerald-green eyes widened. She never imagined that her defensive soul ability would be ineffective, and she would be imprisoned by the opponent's soul ability.
"Martial Soul Fusion Ability!"
"It's a domain-type Martial Soul Fusion Ability!"
"And it was performed by two Titled Douluo..."
It was only at this moment that she realized what kind of soul ability she had been struck by, and she was even more shocked.
Martial Soul Fusion Abilities are rare to begin with, let alone one executed by two Titled Douluo.
Damn, I should have fled!
The Ice Jade Scorpion felt regretful. If she had known the enemy was this powerful, she definitely would have chosen to escape.
She had been careless, thinking that in the Extreme North, with her geographical advantage, no one could threaten her.
"Sealing Talisman: Condensation!"
After seeing that Yue Guan and Gui Mei had successfully imprisoned the Ice Jade Scorpion, he quickly condensed a Sealing Talisman and immediately moved in front of the Ice Jade Scorpion, pressing the Sealing Talisman directly onto her.
Buzz—
Once the Sealing Talisman took effect, the Ice Jade Scorpion's Soul Power was immediately sealed.
"Damn human, what did you do to me?"
When the Ice Jade Scorpion felt her Soul Power being sealed, she was suddenly horrified and immediately shouted angrily at Gu Ziyi.
Obviously, like Da Ming, she was fluent in the human language and could speak it.
At this moment, the Ice Jade Scorpion was truly panicked. When she had been trapped before, she could still fight and had a chance to escape, but now that her Soul Power was sealed, she was truly in despair.
If she couldn't use her Soul Power, she would really become a lamb to the slaughter.
"Elders, thank you for your hard work!"
Gu Ziyi did not respond to the Ice Jade Scorpion but first spoke to the two Douluo.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei smiled, then withdrew their Martial Soul Fusion Ability.
"Damn human, let me go!"
Seeing that he was ignoring her, the Ice Jade Scorpion couldn't help but shout again.
"Let me introduce myself. I am Gu Ziyi, the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall!"
He then looked at her and revealed his identity with a smile.
"The Pope of the Martial Soul Hall!"
"Just you?"
Upon hearing this, the Ice Jade Scorpion looked at him in surprise.
She knew what kind of organization the Martial Soul Hall was, but she found it hard to believe that the Gu Ziyi in front of her was actually the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall.
Because she could sense that he did not have the cultivation level of a Titled Douluo.
A Soul Master this weak is actually the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall?
In her eyes, Soul Masters who had not reached the level of Titled Douluo were weak.
Yet, when she realized that her Soul Power had been sealed by him, she found it even more unacceptable.
"Ah Yin, come and explain the situation to her!"
Gu Ziyi did not answer her question. After briefly introducing his identity, he asked Ah Yin to explain the situation to the Soul Beast in front of him.
At the same time, he also removed the Sealing Talisman from Ah Yin's body and no longer concealed the aura of a Soul Beast within her.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
When Ah Yin heard his words, she flew over in an instant.
"You... Why do you have the aura of a Soul Beast? Are you a Soul Beast?"
After seeing Ah Yin, the Ice Jade Scorpion quickly sensed the Soul Beast aura from the other party and immediately widened her eyes.
"Well, I am the incarnation of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor!"
She waved at the Ice Jade Scorpion.
"Then why are you with humans?"
The Ice Jade Scorpion asked in surprise.
She was secretly anxious, trying to break Gu Ziyi's seal, but she had no idea where to start.
In this helpless situation, she could only continue to try secretly while dealing with Ah Yin.
However, her surprise was not fake. She truly did not expect a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast to be with humans after transforming—let alone standing alongside the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall.
"It's like this..."
Even if the Ice Jade Scorpion had not asked, she would have told her anyway. This was the task that Gu Ziyi had just assigned to her.
So Ah Yin slowly explained to the Ice Jade Scorpion about her cooperation with Gu Ziyi, also mentioning that she was not the only one—there were other 100,000-year-old Soul Beasts that had chosen to cooperate with Gu Ziyi.
"What Ah Yin said is true. I was the first to cooperate with the master!"
Swish~
After she finished speaking, the Peachwood Sword behind Gu Ziyi directly transformed into a human form and appeared in front of the Ice Jade Scorpion, then spoke in agreement.
She was surprised once again when she saw Xiao Tao appear.
What was going on with this one?
It didn't seem like it had transformed into a human. It was clearly a sword just now.
