Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 298 Soul Core Formed, Sea Princess

With the help of a spiritual source spanning a full 100,000 years, the aura of the Ice and Snow Maiden grew ever stronger, and at the same time, the energy used to cleanse Zhou Sichen also began to increase exponentially.

The soul core in Zhou Sichen's dantian is more than half complete and has completely passed the risk period. It only requires continuous output of soul power to complete the final step.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor watched this scene silently, their hearts filled with uncontainable joy.

They all knew very well that, given the power of Zhou Sichen's Contract Book Martial Soul, successfully forming a contract with the Snow Empress meant they would have a life-saving talisman.

The Snow Empress, comparable to a level 99 Peerless Douluo, provides him with close protection, and he can also merge with Zhou Sichen to grant him power far exceeding his own.

It is definitely more effective than the Origin Dragon Dagger of Dragon God Douluo and Dragon Emperor Douluo.

After all, the Light and Dark Dragon Daggers combined are only equivalent to two attacks from a Peerless Douluo. How can that compare to carrying a Peerless Douluo with you?
Furthermore, at this moment, Xue Di is relying on one-tenth of Tianmeng's spiritual essence to break through to a cultivation level of 700,000 years.

In the future, Xue Di's strength will reach even greater heights.

As long as Zhou Sichen doesn't go out and do something reckless, he will definitely become an unparalleled powerhouse in the Douluo Continent in the future.

After all, in addition to the Book of Contracts martial soul, Zhou Sichen also has a physical martial soul that has completed the second awakening of the gold level.

With the addition of the Necromancer Saint God power bestowed upon them by the otherworldly being Electrox, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor could no longer imagine how they had lost.

Unless this world has gone blind and the divine realm has been severed, with Zhou Sichen's strength and foundation, he should definitely be able to break through to the realm of gods.

After learning all this, Xue Di shared the same thoughts as Bing Di, and Xue Di became even more confident in her own power.

If she could break through to 700,000 years of cultivation, her own power would also increase greatly, bringing more assistance to their god-making team.

Time passed second by second. After the Snow Emperor had completely absorbed and refined that one-tenth of the spiritual essence, the last shackle was completely broken. The Snow Emperor's aura surged instantly, and she was promoted to a super ferocious beast of seven hundred thousand years!
As Xue Di broke through, Zhou Sichen's first soul core was also completely condensed, slowly rotating in his dantian and absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

At this moment, the first soul core had been stabilized under the integration of Zhou Sichen's enormous spiritual power, and the power that originally tore through space was now completely under Zhou Sichen's control.

Although the soul core had only just been successfully condensed, Zhou Sichen had already felt its powerful effects.

Having a Soul Core is like having a portable baby bottle.

Even if Zhou Sichen doesn't need to cultivate, his soul core can operate on its own, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish his soul power.

With this soul core, Zhou Sichen's total soul power doubled, and his stamina increased several times over.

Even without using the soul power of his contracted soul beast, his total soul power was enough to unleash the three powerful skills of the [Sun, Moon and Star] Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

But Zhou Sichen did not immediately bask in this joy.

Instead, after successfully condensing the first soul core, he continued to use the energy burst after Xue Di broke through 700,000 years of cultivation to try to condense the prototype of the second soul core in his chest.

The massive fluctuations of soul power once again formed a soul vortex, even more terrifying than when the first soul core was condensed.

But just as the soul vortex was forming, the soul vortex in the chest and the first soul core in the lower abdomen began to repel each other.

This is the difficulty in condensing a second soul core; if one were to forcibly condense a second soul core...

The forces of the two soul cores would then repel each other, eventually causing Zhou Sichen's terrifying soul power to explode.

By then, even if Zhou Sichen's body were to be fused with the Gold of Life, he would likely end up paralyzed on one side.

However, what Zhou Sichen needs to do now is not to condense a second soul core, but to create an opportunity to condense a second soul core, and first condense the prototype of the soul core.

At this moment, Xue Di also helped Zhou Sichen to accurately control his power.

With Xue Di's help, Zhou Sichen's condition gradually stabilized. His first soul core, which was about to erupt, was suppressed and began to rotate in the same direction as the soul vortex in his chest.

Three more hours passed. After absorbing enough soul power, the soul vortex in Zhou Sichen's chest finally formed a base point the size of a thumb, which was the prototype of the soul core.

However, this nascent soul core was not in operation, but rather remained stationary.

The soul power that Zhou Sichen cultivates afterward will neither be absorbed by this second soul core prototype, nor will he use the power to condense the second soul core prototype.

Only when Zhou Sichen's cultivation level is sufficient will he restart this prototype of the soul core in order to condense the second soul core.

With this prototype of a soul core, Zhou Sichen will face a 50% reduction in difficulty when he breaks through level 90 and condenses his second soul core!
Although it is still more difficult than for an ordinary Title Douluo to condense their first soul core at level 90, it is much better than directly condensing their second soul core.

Just as Zhou Sichen's second soul core prototype was completed, his blood-red sixth soul ring was also fully restored, and Xue Di's gentle and noble expression appeared on the sixth page of the Book of Contracts.

The blood-red sixth soul ring lit up, and in an instant, it burst forth with brilliance. A beam of light shot out from the Book of Contracts and hovered in mid-air.

The temperature across the entire island plummeted in the next moment, and then snowflakes began to fall.

The graceful and noble figure of Xue Di slowly appeared, her bare, exquisite jade feet gliding through the air.

As Xue Di felt her terrifying power return, a smile appeared on her beautiful face.

Seven hundred thousand years of cultivation! I never expected to break through in this way.

However, at this moment, Xue Di did not regret it at all, because after successfully forming a contract, the feeling that the Book of Contract Martial Soul brought her was enough to make her believe that Zhou Sichen had that ability.

Moreover, just as Zhou Sichen said, not only is her power no longer restricted, but she has become even stronger because the spiritual essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm has broken through 700,000 years.

Even if she is killed by being blown to pieces, she can be resurrected in the Book of Contracts Martial Soul.

Of course, at Xue Di's level, ordinary people don't have the ability to inflict fatal damage on her.

Upon seeing the Snow Empress's figure, the Ice Emperor's spiritual essence burst forth from Zhou Sichen's spiritual sea and flew towards the Snow Empress.

"Snow Empress, you've gotten even stronger!" Ice Empress exclaimed excitedly.

Looking at the excited Ice Emperor, the Snow Empress smiled and said, "Yes, I have become stronger again. If we had been able to capture the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm before this, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way."

Hyotei smiled upon hearing this: "Perhaps this is fate. I never expected that we would meet again in this way. It seems that this is truly an arrangement of heaven."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm watched the two Ice and Snow Emperors laughing and joking in mid-air, silently staying in Zhou Sichen's spiritual sea with envy.

He dared not provoke Hyotei. He was no match for Hyotei by himself, and now that Yuki-tei had come, his position as the male master was in jeopardy.

Zhou Sichen had no time to concern himself with the relationship between Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor. His first and fifth spirit rings lit up, and the figures of A'da and Mirror Beast flew out from the Book of Contracts.

The four contracted spirit beasts with six spirit rings were already here. Apart from Hellfire and Xiong Da, who were still undergoing special training in the Star Dou Great Forest, Zhou Sichen planned to let Xue Di get to know these friends first.

Although the Snow Emperor now possesses 700,000 years of cultivation, she does not look down on these children who are also members of the Book of Contracts.

Furthermore, due to Zhou Sichen's breakthrough, apart from Honghong, who already possessed 100,000 years of cultivation, the cultivation levels of the other contracted soul beasts jumped directly to 85,000 years.

As long as Zhou Sichen breaks through level 70, or adds one or two more soul rings to his main martial soul, the cultivation levels of all his contracted soul beasts will directly break through the 100,000-year limit.

Just as Zhou Sichen broke through, Hellfire and Xiong Da, who were undergoing special training in the Star Dou Great Forest, also experienced a surge in their cultivation levels.

This scene surprised both the Crimson King and the Bear King. Then the two ferocious beasts realized that Zhou Sichen's strength had improved again.

Seeing that Hellfire and Bear's cultivation had broken through tens of thousands of years in just a few months, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't envious.

But when they thought about how their personal freedom had been given to Zhou Sichen, the two ferocious beasts were no longer so envious.

In their view, Zhou Sichen is indeed exceptionally talented and has the potential to reach the realm of gods. However, he is still young, and even if they want to invest, they cannot rush into it and must wait and see.

But that's how opportunities are; they only come to those who are prepared. Once you miss them, they're not so easy to get back.

Honghong and Ada had a friendly exchange with Xue Di, and Xue Di was happy to give some pointers to the younger generation.

Zhou Sichen sat cross-legged, ignoring Xue Di and the others, and carefully comprehended the power of the soul core.

His soul power is currently only at level 61; the Snow Emperor's 700,000 years of cultivation has not brought him any improvement in soul power.

However, after being cleansed by the energy accumulated over 700,000 years by the Snow Emperor and successfully condensing his soul core, his future cultivation path will be incredibly smooth.

Although there is no increase in soul power level, he will not encounter any bottlenecks before level 90.

Just as Zhou Sichen was carefully sensing the power boost brought by the soul core, the originally calm sea surface began to surge with waves, rippling with shimmering light.

An unparalleled and immense pressure suddenly came from all directions.

A beam of brilliant blue light suddenly shone in the seawater; it was a pillar of light coming from the seabed.

The beam of light shone on a parallel sea area 300 meters away from the island where Zhou Sichen and his group were located before stopping.

Zhou Sichen slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the horizon, where three figures stood.

Those were three incredibly beautiful mermaids.

The three mermaids are about three meters long, and their upper bodies are completely human female.

Two pure white seashells protected her snow-white chest, while her long, light blue hair flowed behind her head.

Its lower body is a huge fish tail, covered with scales that reflect the sunlight and are extremely beautiful.

The biggest difference between the three mermaids is the crown on their foreheads and the color of the scales on their tails.

The three mermaids look alike, but one of them appears more mature and elegant.

The mermaid who looked more mature and elegant had a golden crown and golden scales on her tail.

The two mermaids who looked more youthful and beautiful were slightly different; their crowns and scales were silver.

The gold and silver colors respectively highlight the differences in strength and status among the three mermaids.

The moment the three mermaids appeared, a powerful spiritual force slowly unfolded.

Although there was no threat or oppression, it was enough to make people realize how terrifying the other party's mental strength was.

Within the Sea of ​​Spirit, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which had been sighing, suddenly sounded an alarm: "Ferocious beast... such powerful spiritual cultivation is probably no less than that of a Limit Douluo, only slightly weaker than me. Si Chen, that golden-crowned, golden-scaled one is the Sea Princess, the patriarch of the Mermaid Clan."

Just as Tianmeng Ice Silkworm reminded Zhou Sichen, the Snow Empress and Ice Empress turned their beautiful eyes to the Sea Princess and smiled sweetly: "Sea Princess, it's been a long time."

The Sea Princess is the name of that golden-crowned, golden-scaled mermaid.

The opponent was also a super being of the ferocious beast level, with a cultivation of over 600,000 years, and was one of the top overlords of the sea.

Beside her, two more youthful and beautiful mermaids are the sea princess's two daughters, Lijing and Liya.

In fact, Zhou Sichen didn't even need Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's introduction; he had already guessed the identities of the three mermaids.

In the original work, Huo Gua's eighth soul skill came from Li Ya, and she even became Huo Gua's soul spirit.

However, in the original story, the mermaid race was deceived by an evil soul master using fake soul techniques, which caused damage to Princess Liya's soul. As a result, the mermaid race completely lost their goodwill towards humans.

The Soul Spirit Technique has just appeared in the world, and the Sun Moon Empire has not yet figured it out, so the Merfolk have not been deceived yet.

Liya is now lively and healthy, without any injuries.

Therefore, the sea princess's appearance here with her two daughters did not indicate any malice.

Of course, even if the Sea Princess were to attack, Zhou Sichen would not be afraid at all. He only needed to protect the Snow Emperor in front of him.

The Sea Princess has 600,000 years of cultivation, making her comparable to a level 99 Peerless Douluo.

However, it is still slightly inferior to the Snow Emperor's strength of 700,000 years.

Even though the mermaid race has the blessing of the sea, which is equivalent to the Snow Empress possessing the power of heaven and earth in the far north, the Snow Empress now also has the Ice Empress. The pride of the two Ice and Snow Empresses is equally terrifying.

Of course, now that the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress have just reunited, their pride as the two Ice and Snow Empresses may not be so strong.

After all, Hyotei now only has its spiritual essence left, so it cannot easily use its power.

However, these worries are unnecessary. Although the merfolk don't have much affection for humans, they don't harbor any malice towards them.

Moreover, the Snow Empress and the Sea Princess were friends. One ruled the far north, and the other was the ruler of the icy sea. Naturally, they would not fight each other.

So upon hearing the voices of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, the Sea Princess smiled and said, "Snow Empress, Ice Empress, it really is you! It's been so many years, and your cultivation has improved even more."
