Douluo: Did you move Danta here?

Chapter 534 Divine Equipment Fusion Completed
They had seen Ning Beidan's spirit ring configuration countless times, and even those three red spirit rings could not stir any waves in their hearts.

But when the Xuanhuang Pagoda appeared, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong both gasped in surprise. Gu Rong even rubbed his eyes, afraid that his old eyesight was failing him and he might have mistaken the pale soul ring that had appeared on the red ninth soul ring.

"One, two, nine, ten!!!"

"It really is the tenth spirit ring, Belle. Where did this extra spirit ring come from?"

Compared to Gu Rong's focus on the extra soul rings, Ning Fengzhi cared more. From the moment Ning Bei released the Pill Tower, he noticed the extra layer on top of the nine-layered Pill Tower. Even though this layer now looks somewhat out of place with the other nine layers, it is definitely an extra layer.

This also means that his son's martial soul has successfully evolved. It should be noted that if a soul master's martial soul evolves, it usually brings great benefits. For example, after his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it not only broke the limitation that he could not break through to the Soul Saint level, but also brought the benefit of increased cultivation speed.

Ning Bei's cultivation has already reached the pinnacle that humans can reach. If the evolution of his martial soul can allow him to advance further, it can only be to the elusive god-level realm.

"Belle, what stage have you reached?"

"No, although we have taken the most difficult step, there is still a long way to go."

Under Ning Fengzhi's shocked yet expectant gaze, Ning Bei slowly shook her head, denying their guesses, and continued to explain:

"I have only constructed a divine ring that belongs exclusively to the gods, but the current membrane of the divine ring is still very fragile. It may only be able to withstand soul power of less than ten thousand years. Beyond this limit, the divine ring will be at risk of collapsing."

Upon hearing this, Gu Rong looked at Ning Bei speechlessly, wondering if there was something wrong with his grandson's head, as he was all smiles despite having such a terrible soul ring.

"Then what use is this divine ring?"

Contrary to Gu Rong's expectations, Ning Fengzhi knew his son's character well; he was the type who wouldn't do anything without a profit, and he would never do something so foolish. So, he tentatively asked:
"Belle, can your spirit ring be upgraded?"

Ning Bei nodded, confirming Ning Fengzhi's guess, then looked at Gu Rong and smiled:
“Grandpa Bone, although this divine ring is fragile now, it can be continuously strengthened by the power of faith. When its strength can withstand a million years of soul power, and the tenth layer of the Pill Tower is completed, then it can be considered a successful creation of a godhood.”

"I see. No wonder you went to all that trouble to promote the name of the Medicine God Douluo. It turns out that the ethereal power of faith has this effect."

"The sect will increase its efforts in this area in the future."

“That’s right, that’s right, this old man also wants to see what kind of power this self-created god position will have.”

Having grasped the secret, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong were both very excited. They might not be able to help much in other places, but it wouldn't be difficult for them to promote Ning Bei all over the continent.

"Then I'll have to trouble Father. I may have to go into seclusion for a while."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong immediately suppressed their excitement. They both knew that Ning Bei was referring to the final assessment for another divine position. Compared to the extremely difficult self-created divine position, the Ice God position was the one they were truly confident of obtaining.

"Alright, you can go into seclusion without worry. Leave everything else to me." The fusion of the Ice God Set has entered its final stage, and Ning Bei is secretly looking forward to it. During this time, he has moved into the Ice God Temple, waiting for the set to be completed while using the faith power gradually accumulated on the Pill Tower to strengthen the Divine Ring membrane, making it more resilient.

A whole month passed slowly. On this day, Ning Bei, who was reinforcing the Dan Tower Divine Ring, put away his Martial Soul with a smile. He had already sensed that the Soul Bone Set had been fused.

"Ice God Set activated!"

From Ningbei's limbs, torso, head, and back, ice-blue light continuously flashed, gradually extending to his entire body to form a translucent crystal armor, on the back of which a pair of enormous ice crystal wings suddenly opened.

The ice-blue battle armor exuded a chilling light, with dark blue runes floating at the joints. A rhomboid deep blue marrow stone was cast in the center of the breastplate, and ripples of liquid, cold energy flowed from the marrow stone to the limbs.

Looking down at her arms covered in ice crystal armor, Ning Bei's lips curled into a smile.

"Is this the Ice God Set? It's actually quite nice."

Armor generally symbolizes solemnity and majesty, but for some reason Ningbei could feel a touch of beauty from his own armor, though that wasn't the main point.

After the divine equipment was fused, Ningbei was also granted two abilities. One was to stimulate the energy of heaven and earth to form the Ice God Sword. The power of the sword was roughly similar to that of the Emperor Sword in the Snow Emperor's Three Wonders. This comparison might seem a bit simplistic, but it should be noted that the Snow Emperor's Emperor Sword - Ice Extreme Unparalleled is an instantaneous, one-time skill, while the Ice God Sword can last until the end of the battle.

Another ability of the Ice God Set comes from the defensive capabilities provided by the armor itself. Ning Bei estimated that his defensive power increased by more than three times when he activated the Ice God Set.

What's even more remarkable is that Ning Bei's previous soul bone skills are still usable. It's worth noting that before choosing to fuse with the divine equipment, Ning Bei had already prepared to give up all her soul bone skills, so this can be considered an unexpected surprise.

Ning Bei's own six soul bones are the right arm bone of the 100,000-year-old Holy Light Xuan Turtle, the left arm bone of the 100,000-year-old Pure Heart White Deer, the right leg bone of the 300,000-year-old Holy Light Sea Urchin, the left leg bone of the 300,000-year-old Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the torso bone of the 700,000-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Maiden, and the million-year-old Wisdom Skull brought by Tian Meng.

Over the years, the rewards obtained through the Divine Trial have enhanced these soul bones to varying degrees, and Ning Bei has become very proficient in using her soul skills. It took Ning Bei a lot of determination to give up all her soul bone skills back then.

Now, whether it's the Light Speed ​​Kick, the Radiant Wall, or purification and refinement, Ningbei can continue to use them, which is undoubtedly good news for him.

Ning Bei condensed the cold air from the Ice God Temple into the Ice God Sword, wielded it a few times, and nodded in satisfaction. She just didn't know if the Ice God Set and the Angel God Armor could be fused together after releasing the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with the Little Angel, further enhancing their power.

Retrieving the Ice God Set and hearing the mechanical voice in her mind roused Ning Bei, as the final assessment was about to begin.

"The Ice God Set has been successfully fused. The final test of the Nine Trials of the Ice God - Sacrifice. The most ruthless are the coldest. Turning all things into ice naturally includes oneself. Gods are inherently ruthless. Sacrifice the trivial emotions that gods should not have."

"Kill those beings on the continent who have emotional ties with the examinees."
