Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 727 Humans in the Icy Sea, the Mermaid Princess's Curiosity
With Xiaobai and Mengbing's freezing abilities, freezing the heavily injured Evil Lord shouldn't be a problem, but it's hard to guarantee that Evil Lord might have some hidden tricks up his sleeve.

Outside, Xue Di cannot use her soul power, and there may even be some unexpected events.

But if the evil lord is dragged into the small world, things will be much simpler.

Within the small world, Xue Di, who has already merged her soul with Jiang Ming, possesses immense authority. With the power of the entire small world suppressing everything, Xie Jun, in his current state, cannot stir up any trouble, no matter what trump card he has!

At the entrance to the small world of the Book of Elves, emerald green branches emerged and quickly wrapped around the evil lord, who had been frozen into an ice sculpture.

Because the Evil Lord's true form, with its enormous 300-meter-long eyeball, was so large, Xiao Bi had some difficulty dragging it, so Meng Bing and Xiao Bai helped to pull it inside.

Snow Empress also activated her permissions, and despite her mental discomfort, she increased the attraction of the entrance to the small world of the Book of Spirits, dragging the Evil Lord into the small world.

boom!
Suddenly, the evil lord, who had been frozen into an ice sculpture, unleashed a terrifying evil aura. The ice sculpture was almost shattered by this terrifying aura, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

"not good!"

A hint of seriousness flashed across Xue Di's cold and aloof face. The Evil Lord's power was stronger than she had imagined, and the freezing power released by Xiao Bai and Meng Bing was still insufficient.

Without hesitation, Xue Di's eyes narrowed, and she raised her slender hand. Relying on her special status as a spirit of heaven and earth in the far north, she forcibly communicated with heaven and earth with her spiritual power, attracting the surrounding elemental energy of heaven and earth.

The next second, a golden light suddenly appeared on Jiang Ming's left arm.

This is the Snow Emperor's 700,000-year-old soul bone that the Snow Emperor bestowed upon Jiang Ming!
"Emperor's Palm: No Snow in the Great Cold!"

boom!
Snow Empress took a step forward and placed her palm on the already cracked ice sculpture.

In an instant, the ice sculpture, which was on the verge of shattering, was sealed once again by the boundless power of ice and snow.

Mengbing is the ultimate ice, but her cultivation level is not strong enough. Xiaobai's cultivation level is decent, but her attributes are not high enough to reach the ultimate ice level.

When Xue Di herself took action, her move "Great Cold Without Snow" was several times more powerful than the combined power of the two of them!
"Quick! Move him into the small world!"

Despite the exhaustion deep within her soul, Xue Di urged Xiao Bai, Meng Bing, and Xiao Bi to exert even more effort to move the Evil Lord into the small world.

She forcibly used her spiritual power and the essence of her soul to communicate with heaven and earth, and forcibly gained some power by virtue of her identity as an ice and snow elf, but this was a great pressure for her.

She is already a spirit, and no longer possesses the original essence of the Ice and Snow Emperor. She cannot use the soul power within Jiang Ming's body, because the newly generated soul power needs to be repaired by Rongrong and Xiaoyu.

This Emperor Palm technique requires too much energy, and she releases too much spiritual power. Her soul and Jiang Ming's soul have already merged into one. Jiang Ming's soul was severely injured by the Evil Lord, and she was also greatly affected, just not as severely as Jiang Ming.

But with all of this piling up, she couldn't handle it anymore.

Finally, with their combined efforts, the frozen evil lord was dragged into the small world.

After dragging the Evil Lord's body into the small world, Meng Bing wanted to come out and protect Jiang Ming's body, but the entrance to the small world closed as Xue Di became overwhelmed.

"Jiang Ming will be fine outside. You two stay here and watch over this guy. Don't let him get to you."

Before she could finish speaking, Xue Di's soul fell into silence.

Her soul was too weary, and Mengbing felt relieved upon hearing this.

Since the Snow Empress said that her master would be alright, then he will be alright.

Xiaobai and Mengbing exchanged a glance, then each went to one side, guarding the ice sculpture from the front and the other from the back.

In fact, given the power of Xue Di's palm strike just now, Xie Jun definitely wouldn't be able to get out in his current state. Xue Di left Xiao Bai and Meng Bing here simply because she was worried that Xie Jun might cause some kind of accident, just in case.

Outside, in the frigid, bone-chilling sea, Jiang Ming's body was originally sinking, but the golden light shimmering on his torso and the bluish-purple light on his back made his body float upwards.

Jiang Ming's body is indeed impervious to water and fire. Even though the temperature in the icy sea is extremely low, it doesn't have much of an impact on him.

However, the soul beasts in the seabed are obviously much stronger than those near the surface. For safety reasons, Rongrong and Xiaoyu agreed that it would be better to let Jiang Ming's body float on the sea.

Jiang Ming is currently seriously injured, and his presence is almost completely concealed by the two women.

In this situation, without using the naked eye, Jiang Ming is actually no different from the floating ice floes on the icy sea.

The environment in the icy sea is harsh, and there are few soul beasts to begin with. Without any aura, it is almost impossible for any soul beast to notice Jiang Ming.

This is why Jiang Ming led Xie Jun this way. There are too many sea spirit beasts in normal sea areas, but there are few spirit beasts in the icy sea. Even if they encounter one, Xue Di still has enough influence in this area.

Of course, there is another reason.

As Jiang Ming and Xie Jun fought their way through, most of the soul beasts in the surrounding seas were scared away.

Without a cultivation of 100,000 years, who would dare to even glance at a battle of this level?
Therefore, there were basically no soul beasts in the sea area within a thousand miles of Jiang Ming's body.

Jiang Ming's body floated on the sea, as Rongrong continuously squeezed the energy of the immortal herb from the trunk and bones of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum to repair Jiang Ming's aged body affected by the Evil Monarch's Light of Time and Space.

The energy within Xiaoyu's external soul bone has no effect on repairing the body, but it can help Rongrong break through those chaotic meridians and conserve some of the immortal herb's energy.

Within the Sea of ​​Spirit, nine spirits still maintain Jiang Ming's Sea of ​​Spirit.

But it can only keep the sea of ​​spirit from collapsing.

This is, after all, Jiang Ming's spiritual sea. To completely stabilize and repair it, Jiang Ming's soul needs to awaken and take control personally.

Before that, the nine elves had to use all their strength to stabilize Jiang Ming's spiritual sea!

The nine elves looked toward the golden light at the very center of the Sea of ​​Spirit.

That was Jiang Ming's soul, but it was currently in a dormant state.

In fact, Xue Di, who had already completely merged with Jiang Ming's soul, was also supposed to fall into oblivion along with Jiang Ming, but she forcibly stopped this trend.

Only after making arrangements for the series of troubles involving the Evil Lord and Jiang Ming did she feel at ease and remain silent.

In the golden light and shadow, Jiang Ming's soul seemed to enter a mysterious state.

Countless insights rained down on him, and scenes of his battle with the Evil Lord that day, as well as his battles with others in his short twenty-odd years of life, flashed before his eyes.

In every battle, his fighting spirit and his belief are actually accumulating. This accumulation is not something that can be constantly manifested like soul power cultivation or mental power cultivation. It is a kind of momentum, a kind of intention, and even more so, a kind of thought!

It's quite mysterious, but if I had to say, this kind of advancement seems to be even more difficult than advancements in soul power, mental power, or blood and qi.

"First move: Unstoppable advance!"

"Second move: Stabilize the Three Armies!"

"Third move: Soul Chaser!"

"Fourth move: Break the cauldron!"

Within his soul, Jiang Ming continuously practiced his self-created Nine Spears of the God of War.

He fired shot after shot, incessantly, in a continuous cycle. In this moment, he forgot everything—his martial spirit, his spirit rings and spirit bones, all the techniques he possessed. Only one thought occupied his mind.

war!
war!
war!
An incomparably pure fighting spirit, a surging fighting spirit, gradually formed a domain like a tsunami.

War God Domain!

After the War God Domain was formed, the fighting spirit around Jiang Ming became even stronger.

Jiang Ming did not rush to deduce the fifth move of the Nine Spears of the War God. Instead, he took advantage of his current state to check and fill in any gaps in the previous four moves.

Although the Nine Spears of the War God is not like the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, which requires accumulating power through continuous hammer swings, it still has some similar principles.

The Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique emphasizes that each strike is stronger than the last, and after unleashing eighty-one consecutive strikes, its power becomes incredibly strong.

The God of War Nine Spears also needs to continuously increase its fighting spirit with each shot, so as to maximize the power of the final strike!

The first few moves of the Nine Spears of the War God were developed by Jiang Ming relatively early on, and his perspective back then was naturally different from his current one.

Perhaps when you first grasped it, it seemed perfect, but now, especially in this mysterious state surrounded by boundless fighting spirit, those seemingly perfect moves now appear to be full of flaws!
This mysterious state continued, and Jiang Ming figured it wouldn't disappear anytime soon, so he boldly took this opportunity to solidify his foundation.

Soon, the first few moves of the Nine Spears of the War God, which Jiang Ming had already mastered, became increasingly perfect under his modifications.

However, while Jiang Ming was comprehending the battle intent, some problems seemed to have arisen in the outside world.

"Rongrong, it looks like someone's coming!"

Xiao Yu's cultivation level is higher than Rong Rong's, and her range of mental power detection is wider than Rong Rong's.

She keenly sensed that something seemed to be approaching the sea area where Jiang Ming was.

"What should we do then? Should we sink Jiang Ming's body?"

"I'm a little flustered," Rongrong said.

Given Jiang Ming's current physical condition, he basically has no ability to resist!
Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "No, that won't do. The other party may just be passing by and may not have noticed Jiang Ming. If we rashly move Jiang Ming's body, we might end up letting Jiang Ming be discovered instead."

The two of them have been concealing Jiang Ming's presence for three whole days. During these three days, Jiang Ming's body has been like an ice floe drifting in an icy sea, without any accidents.

Moving rashly would indeed expose greater risks.

Rongrong quickly understood this and did not touch Jiang Ming's body, but continued to maintain the original state.

Meanwhile, a thousand meters away from where Jiang Ming was floating, a beautiful figure leaped out of the icy sea.

The figure's upper body resembled that of a human, possessing a beautiful face and elegant figure, while its lower body was a giant fish tail!

Mermaid!

Anyone who sees this scene will immediately think of the word "mermaid".

Yes, these are the sea spirit beasts living in the icy sea, the mermaid race!
In fact, the Snow Empress had a fairly good relationship with the Merfolk. After all, she was the ruler of the far north, and the icy sea was, in a sense, part of the far north.

If Xue Di's consciousness had not yet subsided and she could still see the appearance of this mermaid, she would definitely be able to tell that this was no ordinary mermaid!

Because the lower half of this mermaid's body, the fish tail, is golden!

Not only that, this mermaid also has a golden crown on its head!

Those familiar with the mermaid race know that this is a mermaid with golden blood!

Mermaids are distinguished by bloodlines, which are divided into ordinary bloodlines and golden bloodlines.

Ordinary members among the mermaids possess ordinary bloodlines. Their cultivation and abilities are relatively low, but they can still cultivate to the level of 100,000 years. However, even if such mermaids cultivate to the level of 100,000 years, it is difficult for them to withstand the tribulation that 100,000-year-old soul beasts must face!

But the golden bloodline is different.

This is the bloodline possessed by the emperor of the mermaid race. This bloodline is a gift from heaven and possesses an extremely high spiritual level.

Furthermore, the inheritor of the golden bloodline among mermaids is also the next successor to the patriarch of the mermaid clan.

After leaping out of the sea, the mermaid with golden blood did not jump onto the nearby ice blocks, but instead remained suspended in the air.

Being able to do this means that the mermaid has a very high level of cultivation.

The mermaid tossed her long, dark blue hair, and her golden fishtail and the golden crown on her head shimmered in the sunlight, free of water droplets.

She looked out at the distant sea, her beautiful, sea-blue eyes sparkling with curiosity.

A few days ago, an incredibly terrifying aura erupted over the icy sea, seemingly indicating that two formidable experts were engaged in battle on the icy sea.

At that time, all the soul beasts in the entire icy sea area were trembling with fear, and none of them dared to show their faces on the surface of the sea.

As the overlords of the icy sea, the merfolk were not so afraid. After all, the patriarch of the merfolk had a cultivation level of 600,000 years, making him one of the top four terrifying beasts among the ten great ferocious beasts!
The battle between Jiang Ming and Xie Jun was intense, but not to the point that the mermaid clan chief, Princess Hai, was afraid.

However, the Sea Princess was in seclusion at that time, and when she emerged, the battle was already over.

But the sea princess still warned her people not to go near the area where the battle had taken place.

She was able to tell that both sides in the battle were stronger than her.

At the sea princess's instruction, the mermaid clan has basically not surfaced for the past few days.

However, after holding back for several days, Lia, the mermaid princess, couldn't resist her curiosity and went to check out the area.

She dared not approach the core area, where traces of the space being torn apart still remained. Even as a 100,000-year-old soul beast, she could be seriously injured if she was not careful.

But her curiosity remained, so she came to take a look around the perimeter.

"Huh? What is this?"

After skipping several stones across the icy sea, Liya suddenly spotted something ahead that was clearly different from the surrounding ice.

Discovered?

Rongrong and Xiaoyu immediately tensed up.

To their surprise, the mermaid princess Lia did discover Jiang Ming's body, but seemed to have no ill intentions.

Liya's golden fishtail swam in the water, her beautiful sea-blue eyes scrutinizing Jiang Ming's body with a mixture of doubt and curiosity.

"This is...a human?"
