Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 726 Breakthrough, Snow Empress Mobilizes the Masses!

The sky was completely dominated by gold and deep blue. When the two attacks collided and erupted, it was almost like the sky and earth were collapsing in this sea area!

No, it's the sky collapsing and the sea splitting apart!
Space was completely shattered, with countless spatial black holes scattered across the sky, and endless spatial turbulence raging in the sky, swallowing up clouds, light, and even seawater.

In the ocean below, a terrifying rift stretching for thousands of meters appeared, looking as if the entire sea had been cleaved in two! And it has been unable to recover for a long time.

Amidst the raging and chaotic aura, both Jiang Ming and Xie Jun unleashed their most powerful abilities!
To be honest, Jiang Ming hadn't planned to engage in a life-or-death battle with the Evil Lord at this point, because with his current cultivation level, he wasn't confident he could kill the Evil Lord.

In the open sea, engaging in such a battle without a sure chance of victory would be extremely dangerous. Even if one won, there was no guarantee of escaping unscathed in the perilous waters.

But that's exactly what Jiang Ming is doing now!
why?
Because the atmosphere is right!

Over the past day, he used all the skills he possessed to launch a saturation bombardment against the Evil Lord.

Under these circumstances, his fighting spirit was fully mobilized. Once his fighting spirit, which had been dormant for several years, erupted, it was like a river bursting its banks, unstoppable!
The moment that fighting spirit erupted, Jiang Ming knew that this battle had to continue!
This battle must be fought, fought to the very end! Fighted until victory or defeat is decided, fought until life and death are at stake!
Victory means survival! Survival means destruction!
If he wins, the Evil Lord dies, he passes the seventh trial of the Twin Gods Trial, obtains an 800,000-year soul ring, fills the last soul ring of the Golden Heart Martial Soul, and will definitely be able to break through the 97th level of soul power, or even directly rush to the 98th level in one go!

Not only will Jiang Ming achieve a breakthrough in cultivation and complete the dual-god assessment, but his own fighting spirit will also be enhanced in battles of this level.

The Nine Spears of the War God currently only has four forms, but after this battle, he will surely be able to comprehend the third form!
This is an immense benefit.

But at the same time, it also involves huge risks!
In fact, Jiang Ming could have avoided this risk. If he had continued to cultivate and reached level 97 or even 98, the risk of killing the Evil Lord would have been greatly reduced.

But if that were the case, it would be almost impossible for Jiang Ming to break through his fighting spirit.

With Jiang Ming's current strength, his fighting spirit can only be broken through by fighting against strong opponents of the same level, or even stronger ones.

Steadiness is not the style of a war god; fearlessness and fighting against heaven and earth are the true characteristics of a war god!
Therefore, when his fighting spirit surged, Jiang Ming knew that he had to give up his original intention of just having a friendly spar!

Fight to the death!

"This kid is actually risking his life, this is getting interesting."

Somewhere in the divine realm, upon sensing Jiang Ming's surging battle intent, the God of War, Dai Mubai, instantly activated a projection, displaying the battle between Jiang Ming and the Evil Eye Tyrant.

"Tsk tsk tsk, if he manages to kill the Evil Lord this time, then this kid's strength will probably truly reach the peak below the god level!"

"War God Dai Mubai exclaimed in amazement."

The sun god, standing to the side, frowned slightly as he looked at the scene before him.

"This isn't all good. With this kind of fighting style, if anything goes wrong, it could lead to disaster! We might not be able to save it even if the two of us intervene."

To be honest, he didn't really want to see Jiang Ming play like that.

With Jiang Ming's talent, he could very steadily pass the tests step by step and then become a god.

This style of play is very extreme; a single mistake can easily lead to severe damage.

“Alas, Sun God, I do not agree with your view. If this little guy can only become a god by relying on his talent, then even if he becomes a god and comes to the realm of gods, he is destined to have no future.”

"War God Dai Mubai said in a deep voice."

The Sun God wanted to argue that as long as he became a god, that would be enough. Their expectation of Jiang Ming was that he would inherit their divine positions.

The expression on the face of the God of War Dai Mubai changed, and the light in his heterochromatic eyes became deep. He continued, "The Sun God is different from us. He has a bigger stage and greater potential! What we can't do, perhaps he can do."

The Sun God's eyes narrowed, and he said, "You mean, 'but'? Is it really possible? In the realm of gods, there are only those who have been dethroned, but I've never heard of anyone being able to ascend to the throne. At least, in all my years in the realm of gods, I've never seen anyone do it."

War God Dai Mubai smiled and said, "You haven't seen it, and neither have I, but not seeing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Perhaps, once this kid comes up, we'll be able to witness it? If it really succeeds, not only will this kid be making history, but the two of us will also be considered to have keen insight!"

"No, it's because I have sharp eyes that I know you're here to take advantage!"

Speaking of this, Dai Mubai got angry. Jiang Ming was originally just the successor of his God of War, but this Sun God also came to interfere. He was simply not human!

The sun god's lips twitched slightly, and he said unconvinced, "Who told me to have such a good wife!"

If the moon goddess hadn't told him about this exceptionally talented individual, he might have truly missed out.

"Humph!"

War God Dai Mubai snorted and stopped discussing the matter.

"Alright, let's keep watching. This kid's strength is still a notch above that Evil Eye Soul Beast. He'll win this round."

Dai Mubai had great confidence in Jiang Ming.

Above the sea, the clash between the two forces had reached its peak!
Jiang Ming's fighting spirit, coupled with the armor-piercing power of the semi-divine artifact Sky-Piercing Spear, along with his spiritual power, soul power, and blood energy, frantically destroyed the Evil Lord's body.

The Evil Lord's enormous eyes had turned completely dark red, as if he had used every ounce of his strength! Even so, his body continued to crumble, his eyes bleeding, and his tentacles, hundreds of meters long, were breaking off almost every moment, as they were forcibly sliced ​​off by the battle intent on Jiang Ming's Sky-Piercing Spear!
Seriously injured!

For the Evil Lord, this was a serious injury that truly damaged his very essence!

It can be said that after this move, he would not be able to return to his peak condition before his eighth tribulation.

Jiang Ming on the other side is also in a precarious situation.

The two skills released by the Evil Lord were truly powerful. A beam of light in spacetime weakened Jiang Ming's spiritual essence by more than half!

It can be said that if he hadn't completely merged with Xue Di's soul and his own spiritual power hadn't been enhanced, this move could have directly threatened Jiang Ming's life!
Even so, Jiang Ming's body was severely damaged.

The profound mystery of spacetime is itself the most supreme mystery among the rules. When it is unleashed with full force by an existence like the Evil Lord, who is almost at the pinnacle of the world, its power is unimaginable.

Even though Xiao Kong and Xiao Shi within Jiang Ming's body were doing their best to stop it, they could only slow down the aging process of Jiang Ming's body.

In just a few seconds, Jiang Ming's youthful face transitioned from youth to middle age, and finally to the state of an elderly person.

Wrinkles crept onto Jiang Ming's face, turning his handsome features into a withered, dull complexion. He looked almost identical to Old Mu in his past state, or even worse. His mental strength had been weakened to an extremely serious degree.

Apart from his still bright eyes and the still fierce fighting spirit in them, his overall physical condition was declining, and he was on the verge of death.

Of course, compared to Jiang Ming, Xie Jun's path to destruction was obviously much faster. Under the pressure of Jiang Ming's fighting spirit, the terrifying aura on Xie Jun's body plummeted, making him even weaker than some 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

"Jiang Ming! Since you want to kill me, then you'll die with me!"

The evil lord has gone completely mad!
Even if he survives by sheer luck, he won't live long in his current state, because his eight hundred thousand-year tribulation is approaching soon.

Even without the eight hundred thousand-year tribulation, his body would have a hard time surviving such injuries.

It has already damaged the very source.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

There was no fear in Jiang Ming's eyes, only an increasingly pure and surging fighting spirit. Even though his voice had become old, he still exuded an indomitable and fearless fighting will!

The evil lord used its remaining tentacles to wrap around Jiang Ming's body, and Jiang Ming used his last strength to swing the Sky-Piercing Spear, trying to completely pierce through the huge blood-red evil eye.

boom!
With a final blow, Jiang Ming's Sky-Piercing Spear pierced through the Evil Lord's blood-red evil eye, while the Evil Lord's two remaining tentacles also pierced through Jiang Ming's body.

In the end, both Xie Jun and Jiang Ming fell into the sea below.

boom!
Blood gushed forth, and both Jiang Ming and Xie Jun felt a chill.

It's not the power of extreme ice, but rather the fact that the environment here is just that cold.

"Jiang Ming, a genius like you, if you were to die with me, it wouldn't be a shame for me to perish! Haha!"

The evil lord's spiritual power transmitted almost insane information.

He no longer cared about death, because he knew he was almost certainly going to die anyway, but being able to drag Jiang Ming, this freak among humans, down with him made him feel great!

"Why did you have to do this! You could have just stayed a strong human, and I could have kept to myself in the Demon Forest! But you insisted on killing me, even chasing me into the sea. Now look what you've done! Die! Die, all of you! Are you happy now?!"

Realizing he was going to die here today, the evil lord's mouth began to chatter.

It seemed that he wanted to say a few more words and mock Jiang Ming while he was still alive.

Let this foolish human know what a foolish decision he made!

Jiang Ming didn't speak, and even closed his eyes to feel the changes within his body.

He's about to break through!
Since his cultivation level broke through to level 96, the difficulty of breaking through his soul power cultivation level has almost doubled!
He had been stuck at level 97 for a long time. Now, after a day of exhilarating battle with the Evil Lord, the bottleneck loosened up and finally shattered just now after he unleashed his full power!
Although his condition is terrible right now, the various amplification soul skills that lasted for a whole day, as well as the pressure brought by the powerful force obtained from the fusion with the elves, have left his body riddled with holes and his blood and energy depleted.

The situation was even more serious in the Sea of ​​Spirit. The Evil Lord's Light of Time and Space weakened his spiritual origin by more than half. In addition, when his own attacks hit the Evil Lord, they were affected by the Evil Lord's Tyrant Domain, which could turn 50% of the attacks he received into mental attacks to backfire on the target.

This means that his spiritual sea suffered a terrifying attack from the Evil Lord's Light of Time and Space, and also a spiritual attack equivalent to fifty percent of the power of his own full-force attack!

Even if Jiang Ming's mental sea was incredibly strong, it couldn't withstand such an attack.

His spiritual sea was on the verge of collapse, and it was Xue Di and the others who were desperately trying to keep it from disintegrating.

But there is some good news as well.

New soul power was surging out from his dantian, and it was soul power that had broken through level ninety-seven!

Moreover, his soul was also immersed in a mysterious state.

His soul seemed to be enveloped by fighting spirit, countless thoughts swirling in his mind—inspiration, insights.
Jiang Ming knew he needed to seize this opportunity; once he did, the fifth form of his Nine Spears of the War God would arrive! However, under these circumstances, Jiang Ming obviously couldn't afford to pay attention to the situation outside.

Within the Sea of ​​Spirit, Xue Di, whose soul had completely merged with Jiang Ming's, was clearly aware of how critical the current situation was.

"You few must guard his spiritual sea to the death. No matter the cost, his spiritual sea must not be harmed!"

Xue Di looked at the elves around her who were doing their best to stabilize Jiang Ming's sea of ​​consciousness, and said with an extremely solemn expression.

"understand!"

The elves shouted in unison.

The next second, Xue Di disappeared into Jiang Ming's mental sea.

The problem lies in the sea of ​​consciousness, and Jiang Ming's physical health is also a major issue!

Within the small world, Xue Di summoned Rong Rong and Xiao Yu.

"Rongrong, you are a divine herb. I need you to fully activate the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum torso bone within Jiang Ming's body. No matter what, preserve his physical body!"

"Ok!"

Rongrong nodded very solemnly, and then transformed into countless golden rays that entered Jiang Ming's body.

Strands of golden energy spread from Jiang Ming's torso to his limbs and bones, forcibly stabilizing his body and preventing it from collapsing rapidly.

For Rongrong, doing this kind of thing was not unfamiliar; Jiang Ming's physical body had often broken down before.

"Xiao Yu, you go too. Although your soul bone attribute doesn't have healing effects, it can still help Rong Rong stabilize Jiang Ming's condition."

"understand!"

Without uttering any unnecessary words, Xiao Yu's soul merged into the external soul bone of the Wind and Thunder Wings.

Under the suppression of Rongrong and Xiaoyu, the rate at which Jiang Ming's body was collapsing slowed down significantly, but Jiang Ming's body was still on the verge of collapse.

"Then, what should I do?"

Meng Bingfei was flying in the air, extremely anxious.

She is a soul beast with a physical body, and cannot help Jiang Ming maintain his spiritual sea and physical body.

"Come with me in a moment."

Xue Di didn't say much, but waved her hand, taking Meng Bing, Xiao Bi, and Xiao Bai who was still playing in the glacier with her.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Di used the unique characteristic of her soul fusion with Jiang Ming's to forcibly open the Book of Spirits.

The spiritual sea must be maintained, the body must be stabilized, and of course, the evil lord outside who is not quite dead yet must also be dealt with!
Because her soul had completely merged with Jiang Ming's, Xue Di was able to forcibly release Jiang Ming's Spirit Book Martial Soul when Jiang Ming's consciousness was dormant.

However, this forced release puts a lot of pressure on her.

But Xue Di held on. Even though Xie Jun was on the verge of death, she would never allow him to pose any further threat to Jiang Ming!

boom!
The Book of Spirits martial spirit was activated, and an ice dragon was the first to charge out.

"Roar!"

As soon as Meng Bing came out, she roared at Xie Jun.

She knew that this despicable guy had driven her master to this state, and at this moment she wished she could rush up and tear him to pieces with her dragon claws!

But she didn't; she wanted to listen to the Snow Emperor's mistress.

Soon, another roar was heard, and the ferocious beast Ice Bear King Xiaobai, whose cultivation had reached over 200,000 years and was approaching 300,000 years, also emerged from the small world.

It looked at the still enormous evil lord in front of it. Although there was apprehension in its lantern-sized bear eyes, there was no fear.

Snow Emperor tells it who to attack, and it attacks that person!
"what's the situation?!"

When he saw Meng Bing come out, Xie Jun was already dumbfounded.

How could an ice dragon appear here! And judging from its aura, it's an ice dragon with a cultivation level of 100,000 years!

Not only that, the ice bear behind it possessed an aura that reached the level of a 200,000-year-old ferocious beast! It was even not far from having a cultivation level of 300,000 years.

How could these two soul beasts suddenly appear!

This kind of spirit beast shouldn't be in the far north.
Suddenly, the Evil Lord used his remaining spiritual power to explore his surroundings and discovered that he had somehow arrived at the icy sea near the far north!

When Jiang Ming had already decided to unleash his full fighting spirit and engage in a life-or-death battle with the Evil Lord, he had already anticipated some possibilities.

Of course, he was still very confident in himself; he wouldn't die. But he had anticipated some of the things that were happening in his current situation.

So during the day-long battle, Jiang Ming intentionally or unintentionally drove the Evil Lord towards the far north.

In the sea, he and the Evil Lord were not familiar with each other, but he was human and the Evil Lord was a soul beast.

In a sea teeming with sea spirit beasts, if he and the Evil Lord are both severely injured, the spirit beasts are more likely to attack him first than the Evil Lord.

But things are different in the far north.

With Xue Di around, the chances of him being attacked by soul beasts in the far north will be greatly reduced!
With their speed, even though Jiang Ming didn't make a clear attempt to drive them away in order to avoid letting the Evil Lord discover their intentions, the two of them had already arrived at the icy sea near the far north.

The landmass of the far north borders the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Sun Moon Empire, while the seas near the far north are frozen due to the terrifyingly low temperatures.

Although the temperature here is not as low as in the far north, it is even more remote and sparsely populated than the far north because it is located in the sea.

"Xiaobai, Mengbing, tear off his tentacles."

As snow fell, the Snow Empress's figure emerged from Jiang Ming's body. She was only a spiritual being, but facing an opponent like the Evil Lord, even though the Evil Lord was already severely injured, she still needed to step out and maintain order.

Roar!
After Xue Di spoke, Meng Bing and Xiao Bai roared and pounced on Xie Jun's body, biting and tearing at his tentacles with their teeth and claws.

The tentacles of the Evil Lord's main body had already been mostly destroyed during the battle with Jiang Ming, and the remaining tentacles could not possibly withstand the attacks of Meng Bing and Xiao Bai.

In just a few minutes, all the tentacles attached to the giant eyeball of the Evil Lord's true form had been torn off, leaving only a lonely eyeball.

"Snow Emperor!"

The Evil Lord's eye, which had already bled countless times, was fixed on the Snow Emperor who appeared before him. He had fought Jiang Ming three times, no, theoretically four times, once when his spiritual body descended and fought against Jiang Ming.

I only saw the Snow Empress during that one battle between spiritual beings. I didn't see her during the other three battles between the Evil Lord and Jiang Ming.

After that spiritual entity was devoured by Jiang Ming, this part of the spiritual entity did not return to the Evil Lord's side, and naturally had no related memories.

So at this moment, the Evil Lord truly saw the relationship between Jiang Ming and the Snow Emperor. Upon seeing it, he was surprised, no, he was terrified!

The Snow Emperor is ranked third among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, only one place below him! Even if he went to the far north, he might not be able to defeat the Snow Emperor. After all, the Snow Emperor is the spirit of heaven and earth in the far north, and even Emperor Tian does not have the ability to completely suppress the Snow Emperor in the far north.

How did she end up here?! Or did she come out of Jiang Ming's body?
Moreover, these two soul beasts
"I am right here, what's wrong?"

Snow Empress glanced coldly at Evil Lord, then raised her hand and said, "Little White, Meng Bing, freeze him. Once Jiang Ming's condition stabilizes, then we'll destroy him!"

Killing the Evil Lord now is obviously inappropriate. Jiang Ming's physical condition is too poor, and his spiritual sea may even suffer some aftereffects after being impacted to this extent. The most important thing now is to stabilize Jiang Ming's physical condition.

Even with Jiang Ming's current strength, a soul beast of the level of Evil Lord would need to maintain peak condition to absorb a soul ring.

Otherwise, accidents are likely to happen.

The Snow Empress, being shrewd and intelligent, would naturally not allow such a thing to happen.

The Evil Lord is now extremely weak. Regardless of whether he has any trump cards left, we should freeze him first. We can't let him die now, nor can we give him a chance to recover. This is the best thing for Jiang Ming.

Upon hearing Xue Di's command, Xiao Bai and Meng Bing instantly unleashed all of their ice-attribute power.

The icy current swept wildly toward the evil lord's enormous eyeball, turning the 300-meter-long eyeball into an ice sculpture and freezing all its aura!

However, even under the ice, the Evil Lord still refused to submit, and a violent aura rose, attempting to break the ice.

In fact, given the level of the Evil Lord, it would have been best for the Snow Empress to personally freeze him.

But Xue Di no longer has that ability.

She is Jiang Ming's spirit. To use his soul power, one needs to borrow it from Jiang Ming's body through the eighth soul ring she gave him.

However, Jiang Ming's body is currently in a mess. It's already the limit for her to forcibly activate Jiang Ming's Spirit Book Martial Soul. It's unrealistic to extract enough soul power from Jiang Ming's body to freeze the Evil Lord.

But it doesn't matter. Although Mengbing and Xiaobai are a bit weak, they can freeze the Evil Lord for the time being.

Seeing the Evil Lord, who had turned into an ice sculpture, the Snow Empress's eyes narrowed.

"Little Bi, drag him into the little world!"
