Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 301 The Sea Princess Joins

The Sea Princess and her daughter led Zhou Sichen and the Snow Emperor all the way to the center of the palace, which was decorated with various ornaments.

Pearls the size of a human head, crystal-clear seashells, beautiful rainbow corals... any one of these would be a priceless treasure in the human world.

Zhou Sichen and Xue Di took their seats, and beautiful mermaids served them precious delicacies from the seabed.

The Sea Princess looked at Zhou Sichen, her tone filled with anticipation: "Are you really a soul beast in human form? Do you have a second martial soul? Otherwise, how could you withstand the Ice Emperor's 400,000-year soul ring?"

Faced with the sea princess's question, Zhou Sichen simply smiled, and the Ice Emperor, who had transformed into the essence of spirit, spoke first: "Let me answer your question on Sichen's behalf."

Then Hyotei began to speak eloquently, recounting everything from how she met Zhou Sichen to the events that had occurred up to the present.

After a long while, both the sea princess and the two sisters, Regent and Liya, were deeply shocked.

Zhou Sichen is actually a human?
It's unbelievable that a human is only fourteen years old.

Putting aside the fact that he reached the sixth ring of cultivation at the age of fourteen, the fact that he condensed a soul core at the sixth ring level is enough to shock people.

However, compared to Zhou Sichen's talent and foundation, it seems that condensing a soul core at the sixth ring is not so unacceptable.

The Book of Contracts alone was enough to make the Sea Princess fear Zhou Sichen.

How could a human possess strength comparable to a level 99 Peerless Douluo at the sixth ring level simply through the power of their Martial Soul?

That's the Snow Emperor!

The leader of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, and a super being ranked third among the ten ferocious beasts.

Even the Sea Princess herself was slightly inferior to the Snow Emperor, but now the Snow Emperor had become Zhou Sichen's ally.

Then there's Ice Emperor, whose 400,000 years of cultivation became Zhou Sichen's Wisdom Soul Ring, further enhancing his strength.

Of course, what amazed the Sea Princess the most was the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the first million-year soul beast in Douluo Continent.

Is it possible for a single human being to possess almost all the fortune of the far north?

You're saying you're not even as good as a soul beast transforming and cultivating again? Are you a mythical beast in human form?
Otherwise, they're the chosen ones!
After the initial shock, the Sea Princess finally gained a clear understanding of Zhou Sichen: "So this is the God-Making Plan? It seems you've already succeeded more than halfway, haven't you?"

At this moment, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had also emerged from Zhou Sichen's spiritual sea and replied with a smug look, "That's natural. With Sichen's current strength and foundation, he only needs to cultivate step by step to level ninety-nine and he should be able to directly break through to the God Realm."

Xue Di added, "If there were a divine inheritance now, Si Chen could probably become a divine inheritor directly."

Hyotei's explanation was so convincing, and coupled with Zhou Sichen's demonstrated abilities, the Sea Princess was genuinely a little tempted.

Because Zhou Sichen's Contract Book Martial Soul ability is too powerful, even though I signed a contract with Zhou Sichen, it can still protect the Mermaid Clan.

After ascending to godhood, the merfolk will have even less to worry about.

The only drawback is that after Zhou Sichen's failure, her remaining lifespan of nearly 100,000 years will be reduced to a mere few hundred years.

But in Princess Hai's opinion, is it possible for Zhou Sichen to fail now?

In the history of Douluo Continent, there is probably no human who can do what Zhou Sichen has done.
Whether in terms of background or talent, Zhou Sichen is undoubtedly the number one.

In the eyes of the Sea Princess, this was almost a foolproof way to ascend to godhood. No wonder the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor chose to join the god-making project!

Lijing and Liya now regarded Zhou Sichen as a monster, as both sisters had cultivated for 100,000 years.

Having lived for so long and encountered some humans, they had never met anyone as terrifying as Zhou Sichen.

The sea princess looked at Zhou Sichen, her beautiful, pearl-like eyes reflecting the young man's face, and smiled broadly: "Sichen, may I call you that?"

Zhou Sichen smiled slightly: "Of course, senior. You are friends with Xue Di and Bing Di, so you can naturally call me that."

Princess Hai smiled and said, "Si Chen, you really gave me a surprise. I've seen many powerful soul masters at the Title Douluo level among human soul masters, but you are the most special one."

Xue Di said from the side, "So, now that you've shown up today, Bing Di and I thought we'd bring you on board. After all, this is an opportunity we've waited for tens of thousands of years for."

Hearing Xue Di's words, the Sea Princess was actually grateful.

After learning about Zhou Sichen, her thoughts were the same as Xue Di's: Zhou Sichen was the one most likely to break through to the realm of gods.

Now, Zhou Sichen's Contract Book Martial Soul can still preserve their strength, which is indeed an opportunity that they have been waiting for for tens of thousands of years, just as Xue Di said.

So at this moment, the sea princess was tempted, because even if she signed a contract with Zhou Sichen, it wouldn't affect her protection of the mermaid race.

The sea princess smiled slightly: "Since that's the case, I'll state my position directly. I also hope to join this god-making project and seek a future for my mermaid clan."

With that, the Sea Princess bowed to Zhou Sichen: "Sichen, I can sign a contract with you, but I have a small request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

Hearing what the Sea Princess said, Zhou Sichen almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He had thought the sea princess might not agree and that he would have to use a lot of persuasion to convince her to form a contract with him. But now it seems he underestimated the allure of becoming a god.

Zhou Sichen quickly helped the sea princess up. He was only two meters tall, which made him look a little small next to the three-meter-long sea princess.

The snow-white ravine in front of him came into direct view, almost shattering Zhou Sichen's Dao heart.

That's so damn unfair!
Fortunately, Zhou Sichen was not tempted by women and said to the sea princess, "If I'm not mistaken, senior, you intend to continue protecting the mermaid race after signing the contract, right?"

Princess Hai nodded: "Yes, but Sichen, don't worry. As Xue Di said, after signing the contract, we will be one. You can recall me at any time through the Book of Contract. In this way, you can just recall me whenever you need me."

Princess Hai said, glancing at her two daughters, "That way, I can spend more time with Regent and Liya."

Zhou Sichen smiled slightly: "That's natural. We are partners, not subordinates. Not only you, but Xue Di also doesn't follow me around often. She has her own things to do."

Zhou Sichen turned to Xue Di and smiled slightly: "You don't need to worry about freedom at all. As long as I am not in any danger, you will still be the masters of the far north and the masters of the ice sea. You don't need to serve me."

Upon hearing this, both the Snow Empress, who had just completed the contract, and the Sea Princess were taken aback for a moment before smiling.

Xue Di thought to herself, with such a broad vision, it's no wonder that Tian Meng and Bing Di chose him.

Princess Hai's thoughts were similar to those of Hyotei; at this moment, she was attracted by Zhou Sichen's personal charm.

If the Sea Princess was initially somewhat worried that Zhou Sichen wouldn't agree, she now had no such concerns at all.

And since Zhou Sichen said that, she would be even more dedicated to helping him.

After all, trust and respect are mutual.

Zhou Sichen has gone to such lengths, how could she be so unreasonable?
Tianmeng Bingcan then said, "Don't worry, Sichen has thought of all the problems you can think of."

The sea princess smiled sincerely: "Sichen, then it will be a pleasure to cooperate with you!"

Zhou Sichen's smile remained unchanged: "However, I have just broken through to the sixth ring, and there is no room left in the Book of Contracts. The contract with the senior can only be saved until I break through to level seventy."

Princess Hai replied, "Of course." Zhou Sichen thought for a moment and continued, "Senior, besides you, Princess Lijing and Princess Liya may also have the opportunity to follow my other companions. Although they are not as special as me, they all have the foundation to become gods."

Upon hearing this, the Sea Princess raised an eyebrow: "Si Chen, you have such a gifted partner?"

Zhou Sichen smiled and recounted the information about Ye Guyi, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Long Aotian, Vina, and others one by one.

As for Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue, although they also consumed the immortal herbs, they are still too young and need more time to grow.

Zhou Sichen would not mistreat her two younger brothers; she had already planned everything for them.

As long as they work hard enough, Zhou Sichen will give them the same opportunity.

After hearing about the geniuses Zhou Sichen mentioned, the Sea Princess also fell into hesitation.

She agreed to Zhou Sichen's request because his talent and martial spirit were suitable for her current situation.

And she has lived for so long, she is not afraid of taking risks.

But the sea princess still hesitated to send her two daughters on an adventure.

After all, no matter how talented Zhou Sichen's friends are, even if they possess the ultimate martial soul, it is not guaranteed that they can break through to the god realm.

She wasn't afraid of death, but she didn't want her daughter to take any risks.

Seeing Princess Hai hesitate, Zhou Sichen didn't say anything more. After all, everyone has their own choices, and there was no need for Zhou Sichen to force her.

Just then, Lijing and Liya exchanged a glance, and then the older sister, Lijing, said to the Sea Princess, "Mom, I'm willing to take the risk."

Liya, the younger sister, also said, "Mother, ultimate martial souls are already rare, but three have appeared around Brother Sichen. Isn't this our opportunity?"

"If you dare to take a gamble with Brother Sichen, so can we. We want a chance to become gods, and perhaps only by taking this gamble can we have a glimmer of hope, right?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Hai did not dwell on her daughter's address to Zhou Sichen, but her face was filled with a conflicted expression.

Although Zhou Sichen was happy inside, she calmly asked, "Lijing, Liya, are you sure?"

Lijing and Liya said in unison, "Of course! With such talent as Brother Sichen, your companions are bound to be just as good. We want to take a gamble!"

Ice Emperor then spoke up, saying, "Princess Sea, there's something I forgot to mention. Besides the Wisdom Soul Ring preserving wisdom, Si Chen also created the Soul Spirit Technique based on his Contract Book Martial Soul."

"And the effects of this Soul-Spirit Technique..."

As Hyotei explained the effects of the Soul Technique, the sisters Reijin and Reiya instantly showed joy, their already determined desire to take a gamble becoming even stronger.

Having the method of the soul means that they can retain their intelligence.

They can even fight alongside their contracted partners and experience the joys of the human world together—it's exactly what they've always dreamed of.

The Sea Princess could only sigh in the end: "The Soul Spirit Technique is indeed magical. Not only can it improve the relationship between humans and the Soul Beast race, but it also allows Soul Beasts that have contracted with the Soul Spirit Technique to enjoy the happiness of the human world."

The sea princess sincerely told Zhou Sichen, "Sichen, you have truly created a miracle."

The sea princess then said to her two daughters, "Since that's the case, I won't interfere with your choices. You're both grown up now, so do whatever you want. Mom will always be there for you."

Upon hearing this, Regent and Liya beamed and rushed into the Sea Princess's arms: "Mommy is the best!"

Seeing the loving mother and daughter, Princess Hai, Zhou Sichen also showed a genuine smile.

Although the mermaid race lives in the icy sea, they specialize in cultivating their spiritual attributes.

This means that both Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao can absorb the soul rings of Lijing and Liya.

Signing contracts with Regent and Liya will definitely be a huge boost to their mental strength.

This trip to the mermaid clan has been incredibly fruitful.

Not only did they gain the help of the Sea Princess, who had cultivated for 600,000 years, but they also gained the two sisters, Lijing and Liya.

More importantly, now that the Sea Princess and her two daughters have set this precedent, the mermaid race may be able to contribute many powerful souls in the future.

Of course, since others are investing in him, Zhou Sichen wouldn't do anything to cause the mermaid clan to suffer a great loss.

The souls chosen by the merfolk are definitely those like Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue, who have the potential to reach the realm of gods.

That way, we won't betray the sea princess's trust.

However, if any mermaids are willing to become spirits, Zhou Sichen is naturally willing to help them; it all depends on their respective willingness.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Sichen said something that reassured the Sea Princess: "Senior, actually, there's no need to be so pessimistic after becoming a spirit. If something happens to me and my companions in the future, the spirits can be preserved and continue to be passed down."

"Although the physical body is lost, the soul and spiritual essence of the spirit can exist permanently in a certain sense."

Princess Hai and her daughter were stunned upon hearing this, a fact that even Xue Di, standing nearby, found quite strange.

The Snow Empress must have just completed the contract. Although the Ice Emperor told her many things, he hadn't finished telling her everything yet.

The Sea Princess asked incredulously, "Soul spirits can be passed down? Doesn't that mean that becoming a soul spirit means you're immortal and just need to wait for a soul master with the foundation to become a god to fuse with you?"

"In this way, even if the chosen Soul Master fails in the end, the Soul Spirit can stay and continue to choose the next Soul Master to invest in, right?"

Zhou Sichen nodded: "Theoretically, that's how it is. Furthermore, if the Soul Master of a Soul Spirit dies, the Soul Master's power can still nourish the Soul Spirit, allowing it to continue to grow. In this way, it can be considered as repaying the Soul Spirit's favor and helping the Soul Spirit become stronger."

Hearing Zhou Sichen's explanation, Princess Hai's worries about her two daughters almost completely disappeared.

In this way, even if the investment fails this time, at least the daughter can survive and wait for the next opportunity.

However, Zhou Sichen soon poured cold water on the situation.

Zhou Sichen said, "However, the Soul Spirit Technique has only recently been introduced, and the method of preserving the soul spirit is still under research. It is not possible to do what I described at the moment."

Why is it described as half a basin of cold water?

According to Zhou Sichen, this method is feasible.

It's just that we can't do it yet.

Princess Hai, recognizing Zhou Sichen's talent and ability, believed that Zhou Sichen could definitely do it.

The Sea Princess said to Zhou Sichen, "Sichen, I believe you can definitely perfect this soul system. Just ask if you need any help. The deep sea may not have much else, but it has a lot of rare materials from the human world. If you want anything, I can have my people find it for you!"

Zhou Sichen was overjoyed upon hearing this: "That would be wonderful. With the help of a senior, the progress of the soul inheritance should be accelerated considerably."
