Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 113 Beginning

Watching Hyotei leave, Ding Quan and Ling also gazed at the increasingly powerful aura in the distance.

It seems that Xue Di also plans to use spatial attributes to build her own second soul core, which is the same attribute used by Di Tian.

Di Tian's two soul cores are one with his own ultimate dark attribute and the other with spatial attribute.

The power of spatial attributes is undeniable. If the Snow Empress successfully condenses a spatial soul core and makes it complement her own ultimate ice soul core, then her strength might truly rival that of the beast god, Emperor Tian.

However, Xue Di does not have the same powerful physique as Di Tian, ​​and she does not possess spatial attributes, so she may not be able to withstand the pressure generated by spatial power within her body.

If one is to operate based on the transformation of one's own Yin and Yang attributes, it is best to have two opposing yet interdependent attributes. Ice and spatial attributes are not included in this category.

Furthermore, Xue Di's actions were too hasty. She immediately began condensing dual soul cores within just six months. Even though she had experience in condensing dual soul cores, it was still too hasty.

After pondering for a moment while looking at the still-gathering spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the distance, Ding Quan turned his gaze to Ling, who was absorbing the Ice Explosion Technique Soul Bone.

The quality of this soul bone is undoubtedly extremely high. It is 100,000 years old and was produced by a super soul beast like the Ice Jade Scorpion. Only soul masters with extreme ice attributes can absorb such a soul bone. And coincidentally, Ling may be the only one in the world who can absorb this soul bone.

Although the soul power on this soul bone is about to be exhausted and will hardly improve soul power, and Ling even needs to spend time nurturing it, the soul skill Ice Explosion is definitely worth it.

After acquiring the Ice Explosion Technique, Ling's strength will definitely rise to another level. Moreover, given her enormous soul power, once she possesses the ability of Ice Explosion, her group attack ability will surely surpass that of Dugu Bo, the Title Douluo.

About half an hour later, Ling opened his eyes.

Perhaps because this soul bone didn't have much soul power, or perhaps because Ling's current strength was not weak, this soul bone was quickly and completely absorbed by Ling.

However, Ling's current level has not increased.

Ling stood up to sense the skills of the soul bone, then smiled and nodded at Ding Quan and Wei'er.

"Ice Explosion Technique! I can directly inject soul power into the ice I create and then detonate it. The power of the explosion depends on the amount of soul power I release," Ling said directly. "Right now, this soul bone is absorbing my ice-attribute soul power, and I can feel it increasing my ice attribute strength."

"This soul bone comes from a 100,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion. Its ice attribute is extremely strong, and the Ice Jade Scorpion with the Ice Explosion Technique is the best among Ice Jade Scorpions. It's normal for it to increase your ice attribute strength." Although Ling possesses the ultimate ice attribute, there are still differences between the ultimate and the ultimate.

"Indeed, I feel that once this soul bone stops absorbing my ice attribute soul power, my ice attribute strength may reach the level of the Ice Emperor."

"No wonder Hyotei kept this soul bone."

"Quan, do you think Xue Di can succeed?" Wei'er looked at the palace in the distance. With their current strength, they could no longer get close to it.

"Disaster!"

The Snow Emperor's attributes are too pure. Purity is a good thing, but sometimes it can become a constraint.

Although it is unknown whether the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has a Yin-Yang dual soul core, Emperor Tian and the Evil Emperor ten thousand years later definitely do.

Di Tian possesses spatial attributes, although not at their peak, his spatial attributes are definitely very strong. He possesses two powerful attributes: extreme darkness and space. With his strong physical strength and soul power, he uses these to construct the Yin-Yang dual soul core.

As for the Evil Emperor, he possesses powerful essence attributes, but he has definitely mastered the two attributes of space and time. It seems to have come from another world across time and space, so it can perceive these two attributes. These two attributes are interdependent. It may be a dual soul core condensed from these two attributes, and it can use this skill to hurt Di Tian.

The Snow Empress's attempt to construct a Yin-Yang dual soul core using spatial attributes she herself lacks is extremely difficult, especially since these two attributes are completely unrelated.

"Is that so?" Ling and Wei'er looked at the golden Suanni soul beside them.

"It will probably take some time for the Snow Empress to build her soul core. For now, we should just focus on cultivating here." Ding Quan didn't recall the golden lion, letting it roam outside to see if it could increase the Snow Empress's chances of advancement.

He had previously said that he would ask Xue Di to sacrifice herself for him to become his seventh spirit ring, but at the time, he was more interested in getting her attention.

Although he did hope that she would sacrifice herself for him, now he could only let nature take its course.

If she succeeds, she will have a target for the seventh soul ring that will take 100,000 years, and with the current strength of the group when they reached the Soul Saint level, they should be able to handle it.

"Quan, do you think we can condense a soul core when we reach the Soul Saint level?" Ling suddenly asked. Now the group had a good understanding of soul cores, and there was a being in Ling's spiritual sea who had condensed a soul core.

For Ling now, condensing the soul core should be quite simple.

"It's definitely worth a try."

Ding Quan nodded. He had originally planned to learn how to condense a soul core through Dugu Bo, but no one expected to encounter this group of ferocious beasts with soul cores first.

It may be somewhat different from the soul core of a Soul Master, but there should be some commonalities.

Moreover, the soul cores of these ferocious beasts are extremely stable, unlike Dugu Bo, who is currently still in the exploratory stage.

"Shall we try the Yin-Yang Dual Soul Core?"

"No, perhaps we could try a three-soul core."

"Three Soul Cores?"

"There are three dantian in the human body, which store the power of qi and blood, soul power, and spiritual power respectively, corresponding to a person's essence, qi, and spirit."

Although Ding Quan had not finished reading the second part, he had heard that Huo Gua eventually condensed three soul cores.

If there are three soul cores, then they must be distributed in this way.

“Indeed.” Wei’er nodded. The three of them could now sense the presence of these three, and their previous training focused on strengthening these three, rather than simply increasing their soul power level like other soul masters. This is why even though Ling is not a beast soul master, he is extremely strong in close combat, and Wei’er is also skilled in elemental attacks.

"The later the soul core is, the more difficult it is to condense due to the interference of other soul cores. It is extremely difficult to condense three soul cores."

"That's alright. After all, once you condense two soul cores, level ninety-nine is just around the corner." Ling smiled as he looked at the pressure generated by Xue Di's cultivation. If one soul core is enough to reach level ninety-nine, then having two soul cores would definitely place one at the very top of level ninety-nine.

"That's true!" Ding Quan laughed as well.

In this era, titled Douluo do not have soul cores. A single soul core cannot significantly increase combat power; it only improves cultivation speed and recovery ability.

Having two soul cores will greatly enhance one's strength and allow one to directly enter the realm of peerless masters.

However, the difficulty is extremely high. But now the group's mental strength is definitely sufficient, the quality of their soul power is definitely up to standard, and the method of condensing the soul core can be learned from the Ice Emperor or the Snow Emperor. It is indeed worth trying.

The far north seemed unusually quiet because of the commotion caused by the Snow Emperor's cultivation.

The situation here is far from the mainland, deep in the far north, and no other Soul Masters have noticed it. Only Soul Masters traveling to and from North Ice City feel that the weather seems to be getting colder. Moreover, the temperature seems to be getting colder and colder, a phenomenon that has lasted for more than half a year.

"Wow! What heavy snow!"

A door in the Arctic city opened, and the person looked at the snow falling from the sky with great curiosity.

The snow in Arctic City never melts, but it doesn't actually snow very often, especially now that it's summer.

In previous years, although there was still snow on the road at this time, much of the snow had already melted quietly. Now, the snow in front of the door is almost knee-deep.

"The weather has been getting colder and colder this year, and even fewer Soul Masters are coming here to hunt for Soul Rings." Another shopkeeper opened his door, his face full of complaints. Business in North Ice City is also bad now.

"Many Soul Masters nowadays go to the Snowfall Mountains to hunt Souls. Rumor has it that the sudden temperature change is because a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast may have appeared in the Frozen Forest."

"I'm afraid so! This awful weather."

"It won't be long before those soul masters come here again. I heard that the duchy in the Snowfall Mountains is at odds with the Heaven Dou Empire, and war may break out."

"Our newly appointed Emperor of Tiandou is truly resourceful; he's taken down a kingdom in just one year." Someone nearby joined the conversation. Although this place was located in the far north of the Tiandou Empire, they were still quite knowledgeable about its affairs.

"The Kingdom of Barak is the granary of the world; how can such a strategically important military location be allowed to be controlled by others?"

"Too!"

"Oh, we have a guest!"

Two women walked towards the shop. When the group saw them, their eyes lit up. The two women were quite eye-catching, but they didn't look at them for long. The two women had a very strong aura, and they were obviously powerful people who had come to the Frozen Forest to hunt for soul rings.

"Bing'er, let's buy some supplies here first," a beautiful woman who looked to be in her thirties said to the woman next to her.

"Dean, I understand." The woman was not tall and was very pretty. Although she wasn't stunning at first glance, she was quite pleasing to the eye.

"It's much quieter here than before."

This person is the dean of Tianshui Academy, and the woman next to him is Shui Bing'er, who has a good relationship with Ling Wei.

"You may not know this, but since the city of Beibing started getting colder and colder a year ago, there have been far fewer Soul Masters coming here," the shop owner explained.

"Is that so?" With the cultivation level of the dean of Tianshui Academy, he had overheard their conversation long ago.

The possibility of a 100,000-year-old soul beast appearing in the Frozen Forest is not good news for her.

However, there was nowhere else suitable for them to hunt souls; only by coming here could they find ice-attribute soul beasts of the right age.

Because her soul power has now reached level 80, she only needs one more soul ring to become a Soul Douluo, and the high-age ice-attribute soul beast required can only be found in this Frozen Forest.

As for Shui Bing'er's talent, Dean Tianshui was also very shocked. Shui Bing'er's soul power has now reached level 60, and her true strength is extremely terrifying. Some Soul Saints are no match for her. Only those three people can surpass her talent.

With Shui Bing'er's current soul power level, becoming a Title Douluo is obviously not difficult, and even becoming a Super Douluo is not difficult. More importantly, Shui Bing'er is her clansman, and her martial soul evolved from the clan's martial soul, the Azure Water Spirit Kite.

Unfortunately, there are no strong members in the family. I am currently the strongest member in the family, so I can't help the Soul Hunter family.

This time, I can make do with my eighth spirit ring, but I must be careful with Shui Bing'er's sixth spirit ring. With Shui Bing'er's talent, she will definitely become the first person in the family to be granted a title.

"Please be careful, both guests."

Shui Bing'er and her companion quickly purchased supplies and then headed straight for the Frozen Forest, soon disappearing into the vast expanse of snow.

At this moment, in the heart of the far north, Ding Quan looked at the woman before him who was like an elf.

"Xue Di, are you really going to make one last attempt? To be honest, your chances of success are very low."

"Is that so? You should know why I had Hyotei bring you here."

"I know." Ding Quan's expression was solemn. The Snow Emperor in front of him had obviously reached the final and most dangerous step. If she successfully condensed the Yin-Yang dual soul cores, with her current strength, she would definitely have to undergo her seven hundred thousand heavenly tribulations immediately.

But she is clearly not sure if she can succeed. If she can't, then there is another path she can take.

"This is not a bad thing for you."

"Indeed, but it's not a good thing for you."

"Now you can use my Emperor Sword at will?" Xue Di looked at the golden Suanni that appeared beside her, and the Longyuan Sword in Ding Quan's hand.

"Pretty much, but it still won't last long."

Ding Quan planted the Longyuan Sword in the ground, and a chilling sword aura still rose from his body.

"That's good!"

"Then good luck! Also, this might be of some help to you." Ding Quan looked at Xue Di, whose expression had also turned fierce, and took out a medicinal herb from his storage soul tool.

"It has some effect, but not much use." Xue Di sensed the powerful soul energy contained in this herb. Although it was very effective for some 100,000-year-old soul beasts, it was of little use to her at her current level.

"It's good that it's useful." This is a celestial herb containing pure heaven and earth energy. If an ordinary soul master absorbs it, it should greatly increase their soul power level.

"Thank you!"

The Snow Empress swallowed it directly, and then her aura suddenly erupted, with an even more terrifying pressure appearing in the sky above.

Ding Quan and the golden lion arrived at a corner of the palace and quietly watched the Snow Emperor, who was radiating terrifying soul power.

Ripples spread across the space around Xue Di, as if it were about to crack, and Ding Quan sensed a terrifying suction force from above.

Like Di Tian, ​​did he transform spatial power into something similar to a black hole?
Outside the palace, on a distant iceberg, Ling and Wei'er stood beside the Ice Bear King, while the Ice Emperor beside them watched the immense soul power surging up, seemingly connecting heaven and earth.

"Has it started yet?"

Hyotei's voice slowly drifted over.
