After the Emerald Empress’s Remnant Soul appeared, she immediately said to Evan Frost, "Thank you, Master, for your great kindness to Emerald. I will do my utmost to repay you. Now, let me show you the true power of this God-Drunk Herb."
Evan Frost nodded and said, "Emerald, you don't have to be so formal. I hope you can recover your body too—having you at full strength will be a huge help."
The Emerald Empress immediately walked to the table and picked up the God-Drunk Herb. Evan was extremely curious—how could a soul pick up the God-Drunk Herb? When Yvonne Xuan was a semi-corporeal soul, it wasn't strange for her to do this, but Emerald was a pure soul and still very weak.
As soon as she picked up the God-Drunk Herb, a faint white glow appeared around the Emerald Empress. The herb instantly disappeared, and her remnant soul transformed into a green point of light that darted rapidly around the room.
After just a few breaths, Evan saw a Hexagram Gate Array pattern appear in the room, with waves of energy light flashing mysteriously.
Evan knew that this hexagram pattern must be gathering the rest of the Emerald Empress’s soul fragments. It was truly a miraculous sight, and he stared wide-eyed, not daring to blink.
Strange runes began to emerge on the hexagram array. Evan couldn’t decipher their meaning, but he was sure they were connected to the Emerald Empress—he never expected her to have such abilities.
After about an hour, the hexagram pattern faded and gradually disappeared. But in midair, a complete set of three souls and seven spirits appeared—it was the Emerald Empress’s three souls and seven spirits.
Soon, all three souls and seven spirits turned into points of light, gradually fading before reforming into the Emerald Empress’s soul body. This time, her form was much clearer—her facial features could be seen, and her figure was fully revealed.
However, the private areas remained deliberately blurred—perhaps the Emerald Empress did this on purpose, giving her an aura of mystery.
"Master, I've completely gathered my three souls and seven spirits. All that's left is for you to help me restore my body. If you feel embarrassed, we can wait until Lynn Ling and the others come out of seclusion," said the Emerald Empress.
"There's nothing embarrassing about it. I can just close my eyes and help you—don't overthink it. Why don't we start now? The sooner you recover your body, the sooner you'll regain your strength," Evan Frost replied.
Now that Evan Frost had broken through to mid-stage Immortal Emperor, his power was even greater—both his elemental force and offensive strength were far beyond what they used to be.
With a thought, the elemental spheres in his body began to spin rapidly, sending energy toward the Emerald Empress’s soul. Soon, her soul was completely wrapped in five-element power, and Evan poured all his strength into the process.
Restoring the Emerald Empress’s body consumed a huge amount of Evan’s elemental power—much more than he’d spent on anyone else before. He realized this was likely due to her much higher cultivation realm.
Gradually, an elemental cocoon formed around the Emerald Empress’s soul. Seeing this massive cocoon, Evan felt a sense of relief—even though he was drenched in sweat, it was all worth it.
Now all that was left was for the Emerald Empress to slowly absorb the five-element power and rebuild her physical body. This was something she’d never dreamed possible in the Immortal Realm—and it was all thanks to Evan.
Evan slowly recovered his spent elemental power and waited quietly for her to emerge from the cocoon. Time passed, and to his surprise, it took the Emerald Empress more than half a month to break out of the elemental cocoon—far longer than he had expected.
As the cocoon slowly opened, Evan closed his eyes. Although the Emerald Empress was beautiful, he had never harbored any improper thoughts about her—he’d never considered making her one of his women. To him, she was just a friend.
"Master, quickly inject Wind–Thunder power so my new body can fully take shape!" The Emerald Empress had already emerged and called out urgently to Evan.
Evan kept his eyes closed and steadily channeled Wind–Thunder power. He was careful to go slowly, since Wind–Thunder was an extremely violent element and could damage her new body. His hands, without hesitation, made direct contact to guide the energy—though this meant he wasted even more power in the process.
Three days later, the Emerald Empress said, "Master, you can stop now. My body is stable. Once I get dressed, I’ll be ready to go out. I hope you’ll help me survive the thunder tribulation that comes with restoring my body."
Evan turned away. After a few breaths, the Emerald Empress finished dressing. "Thank you, Master. It’s because of you that I have this body now. I’ve already reached Da Luo Golden Immortal realm, and I’m certain that within a century I’ll recover my original cultivation. Then I’ll be able to help you in every way."
Evan glanced at her and was stunned—the Emerald Empress’s beauty was no less than Yvonne Xuan’s, maybe even greater. He couldn’t say exactly why; perhaps it was her unique aura.
She was a true beauty, but Evan didn’t regret not making her one of his women. "Emerald, I never imagined you’d be so beautiful. Come, let me help you through this thunder tribulation—then you’ll be able to truly live in the Immortal Realm."
Evan found it odd that restoring a physical body would trigger thunder tribulation. When he helped Yvonne Xuan, it happened; the same with Serena Frost. But when he helped Lynn Ling and Yvonne’s mother, there was no tribulation—their situations were different.
Yvonne Xuan and the others were soul bodies, while Lynn Ling and her companions were Immortal Infants. "Emerald, why does restoring a soul body require passing thunder tribulation, but restoring an Immortal Infant does not?"
"Master, you really are a bit clueless. Restoring an Immortal Infant’s body is different—they never truly died. But restoring a soul body means bringing the dead back to life, which goes against the laws of heaven and earth, so thunder tribulation naturally appears. Immortal Infants can seize other bodies if necessary—it’s a completely different process," explained the Emerald Empress.
Evan seemed to understand and laughed. "Let’s go see how strong your thunder tribulation is. Hopefully it won’t be the terrifying Nine-Heaven Divine Thunder—otherwise, I won’t be able to help you through it."
"I’m not that unlucky. When I ascended to the God Realm, I did encounter Nine-Heaven Divine Thunder, but this time I doubt I will. Don’t worry—if I really do face it, then maybe it’s just not my fate to survive, and I’ll have to enter the cycle of reincarnation," said the Emerald Empress.
