Chapter 146: The Submission of the Immortal Herbs

Words : 1233 Updated : Oct 9th, 2025

The Fiery Apricot Delicate had no time to worry about what the Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb was thinking. It only cared about saving its own life. That cold faced woman was undoubtedly an extremely terrifying beast of great power. "What about the rest of you?" Snow Empress continued, seeing that Fiery Apricot Delicate had submitted. "My patience is limited. Leaving with Huo Yuhao will be the best choice you will ever make." The other awakened immortal herbs fell silent for a moment, as if weighing their options. It was an incredibly difficult decision, but if they stayed here, they might not escape death when Tang San's true descendants arrived. The Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb was in complete shock. It hurriedly turned to Huo Yuhao and pleaded, "Huo Yuhao, control her! She's being too overbearing! Such an oppressive soul beast is bound to be punished! Can't we just talk this out peacefully?" Huo Yuhao thought to himself Snow Empress had always been the absolute ruler of the Extreme North. Judging from how, in the original timeline, her mere return to the Extreme North had all soul beasts immediately bowing to her, it was clear that her authority had always been unquestioned. For a sovereign beast, being dominant and forceful was completely natural. Among soul beasts, strength was the ultimate law the strong commanded, and the weak obeyed. Take Di Tian, for example: even a mighty soul beast like Bear Lord was beaten when he defied Di Tian's orders. But before Huo Yuhao could respond, Snow Empress had already turned her gaze to the Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb, her voice chilling: "Punishment? I have already survived six heavenly tribulations. If simply doing this will bring divine retribution, then let it come! I'd like to see just how this world refuses to tolerate soul beasts!" The Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb trembled in disbelief. "Six... heavenly tribulations?" Every ten thousand years, a soul beast had to survive a tribulation to continue evolving. Six heavenly tribulations what did that mean? It meant this woman's cultivation was already over 600,000 years old! The immortal herbs here had grown incredibly fast due to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, but none of them had ever reached such a terrifying level. Even the Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb, despite being only 10,000 years old, had already become a true hundred thousand year soul beast thanks to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. But a hundred thousand year soul beast was nothing compared to one with over 600,000 years of cultivation. At that moment, near the Extreme Ice Spring, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass swayed slightly and spoke: "If you truly survived six heavenly tribulations, then you are indeed incredibly powerful." It paused, then continued, "I have no objection to leaving with Huo Yuhao. Honestly, I've wanted to see the outside world for a long time. Staying here forever is far too dull. But if becoming a spirit means death, wouldn't it be better to fight you instead and gamble on my chances?" Huo Yuhao stepped forward, explaining, "You are all immortal herbs. Why would I kill you? My goal is simple to work with you. Soul rings are a thing of the past. The future belongs to soul spirits!" "Soul spirits?" The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass was confused, feeling like it was out of touch with the times. "Yes, soul spirits. Snow Empress herself is my soul spirit." Huo Yuhao then patiently explained what soul spirits were and the benefits of becoming one. Of course, he did not intend to make every immortal herb his soul spirit, as some simply weren't compatible with his attributes. For example, Fiery Apricot Delicate was a fire attribute soul beast, while Huo Yuhao didn't even have a fire type martial soul. If he turned Fiery Apricot Delicate into his soul spirit, it wouldn't be a good match. After a brief discussion among the herbs, the Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb finally spoke on behalf of them all: "We are willing to leave with you." They weren't fools. Given the current situation, they had to make the right decision. Staying here meant eventual death at the hands of Tang San's descendants. Leaving with Huo Yuhao at least gave them a chance to survive. Even becoming a soul spirit wasn't equivalent to death. More importantly, Snow Empress' threat was too real. If they hesitated too long and angered her, she might annihilate them all on the spot. They might have cultivated for millennia, but they lacked real combat experience. Even working together, they could never defeat Snow Empress. However, the immortal herbs also had selfish motives. Huo Yuhao clearly knew too much. The secrets he revealed about Tang San were things only they and Tang San should have known. Could even a Limit Douluo possess such knowledge? Impossible! Only someone with ties to the Divine Realm could possibly know these things. And besides... Even a near 700,000 year old beast like Snow Empress had become Huo Yuhao's soul spirit. The herbs unanimously agreed Huo Yuhao must be connected to the Divine Realm. Only someone with ties to the Divine Realm could pull off something so unbelievable. Huo Yuhao was not surprised by their decision. Despite some of them being 100,000 year old soul beasts, their actual combat strength was pitifully low. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had accelerated their cultivation but had also weakened their foundations. They looked strong on paper, but they weren't true 100,000 year soul beasts in battle. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so few herb soul beasts that had developed true sentience. "Good. Now hand over all the treasures that could only be obtained by passing the trials." Huo Yuhao smiled. It was time to enhance his strength. The Fragrant Exotic Immortal Herb sighed. "Alright, we will give them to you. But... are you sure you want the book Tang San left for his descendants?" "Of course! Give it to me immediately." Huo Yuhao thought to himself that book contained the formula for the Creation Rebirth Pill. And that pill was Tang Sect approved. In the Douluo universe, it drastically boosted soul power with zero side effects. Sun Moon Empire's pills? Useless! Tang Sect certified pills? Absolute quality! For soul masters, increasing soul power was the most crucial thing. That didn't mean soul tools were unimportant. In fact, according to Tang Sect Legends, soul tools had plenty of room for growth even in the Divine Realm. Of course, by then, they were called artifacts. In the original story, Huo Yuhao studied Ye Xishui's Death God Tower and eventually invented the Death Light Tower, which had attack power on par with a First Class God. The only problem was that these weapons required divine power or immortal energy to operate. Huo Yuhao didn't have divine power. But Electrolux did. According to lore, even though Electrolux never became a god, his peak power was astonishing. If Electrolux could create a divine power substitute, then Huo Yuhao's future weapons could be on par with the Divine Realm's artifacts. Thank you for the support, friends.
