Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 119 Mainland Situation

Seeing Ding Quan put away the Dragon Abyss Sword, Dean Tianshui's previous beliefs were greatly shaken.

So they just let this top-tier soul beast be sacrificed like that?

Moreover, the age of this polar phoenix is ​​probably not much different from that of the 60,000-year-old ice feather eagle that I recently absorbed.

This is a soul beast that is over 60,000 years old!

The outermost black spirit ring on Shui Bing'er's body is even darker than her eighth spirit ring. Her sixth spirit ring, which is over 60,000 years old, comes from a top-tier being like the Luan Bird. With Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, the power of this spirit skill is unimaginable.

This is Ling's territory!

The group now had a layer of silver on their bodies and felt their strength had increased significantly. This was clearly the power of their domain. No wonder they possessed such strength; it was a top-tier soul skill that even titled Douluo could hardly possess.

And how could it even make a soul beast sacrifice itself? Was it using some special soul skill?
The reason for the sacrifice of the soul beast was because of the Snow Emperor. Just a moment ago, Ding Quan released the Snow Emperor's soul power, and the Snow Emperor appeared in the spiritual realm that the others could not see.

As the ruler of the far north, the Snow Empress's identity was known to these highly intelligent soul beasts.

Although this polar phoenix was not 100,000 years old, its spiritual power was by no means weak as it possessed the bloodline of a phoenix. The object of its sacrifice possessed the Ice Phoenix, a top-tier martial soul, which made it think for a moment before choosing to sacrifice itself.

"A head soul bone? That makes sense. Shui Bing'er's spiritual sea might not be very large right now, and the Polar Luan Bird's spiritual power is not weak, so a head soul bone would be suitable." Under the gaze of Ding Quan and the others, a soul bone flew out from the Polar Luan Bird and directly merged into Shui Bing'er's head. Clearly, this was a head soul bone.

"Another soul bone?"

"The Polar Phoenix is ​​powerful, so it's perfectly normal for it to possess a Soul Bone." A Soul Bone is the prototype of a Soul Beast's Soul Core, and the Polar Phoenix can indeed easily cultivate to the point of 100,000 years.

"Too."

Clang!
A moment after the soul bone merged into Shui Bing'er's head, a phoenix cry rang out.

A chill emanated from her, but it vanished in an instant.

Ang~!

A faint dragon's roar emanated from Ding Quan, accompanied by a subtle dragon's might.

Ding Quan's expression was inscrutable. He quickly gathered his mind, and in his spiritual sea, the golden dragon that had been circling the Dragon Abyss Sword suddenly opened its eyes. Ding Quan felt a tremor in his heart and looked at Shui Bing'er with a very strange expression.

"Ultimate Ice?" This biting cold was extremely cold, and the strength of its ice attribute was indeed above Ling's, but it only lasted for a moment.

"This Luan bird possesses phoenix bloodline, which has affected the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul. The next question is when she will be able to master her own Martial Soul." Ding Quan put aside his thoughts; that fleeting moment of excitement just now...

Ding Quan glanced at Ling, who was standing to the side, smiling at him and then nodding. Considering the two ice-attribute soul beasts on Ling's body, both of which were over 100,000 years old, it seemed that Ling knew something.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have mentioned that there was a Polar Luan Bird here, a soul beast that was extremely suitable for Shui Bing'er, and they wouldn't have known that the Snow Emperor would most likely make a move.

A polar phoenix of this age is not something Shui Bing'er can absorb at her current level.

Soul connection? It's certainly possible between a dragon and a phoenix.

Seeing this, Wei'er pulled Ding Quan down to sit. After exchanging a glance with her sister, she also looked at Shui Bing'er, who was absorbing the soul ring. All of them noticed the dragon's might that Ding Quan had just displayed.

The dragon's might emanating from Ding Quan actually resonated with Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, something that hadn't been noticed before.

Ling Ruo pondered, it seemed that Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul had almost reached its peak.

Ling hadn't experienced this sensation when he copied Shui Bing'er's Ice Mirror Illusion before. It seems that the Ice Mirror Illusion also has things that cannot be copied. Ling knew that his fifth soul skill was very powerful, but there were still things that couldn't be copied, such as the opponent's domain skills, self-created soul skills, and soul bone skills. It seems that now there is one more.

If it truly is a connection between martial soul fusion skills, then
There is no risk involved in soul sacrifice.

An hour later, the Polar Phoenix's soul ring landed on Shui Bing'er and slowly rotated.

North Ice City.

Ding Quan and Ling Wei found a hotel to rest for a while.

Ding Quan looked at the newspaper-like document in his hand with a strange expression.

Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall, has such strong execution ability!
In just over a year, they managed to take complete control of the Kingdom of Barak. The details are unclear, but it is known that the King of Barak died suddenly and mysteriously, and the nobles who were affiliated with the Kingdom of Barak also began to disappear without a trace.

Faced with such immense pressure, the remaining people of the Barak Kingdom directly declared their return to the rule of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. The Heaven Dou Imperial Family then sent people to take over the affairs of the Barak Kingdom, which has now become a veritable province of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Ding Quan put down the information in his hand. Soto City belonged to the Kingdom of Barak. A year ago, when Ding Quan left there, he found that an army had been stationed in Soto City.

It's clear that the people of the Barak Kingdom have also noticed the actions of the Heavenly Dou Royal Family, but it seems to be to no avail.

Indeed, the current Heaven Dou Emperor is a member of the Spirit Hall, with Title Douluo under his command. He has far too many options to handle, far beyond what a kingdom like Barak can manage.

The location of the Barak Kingdom is also extremely special.

If war breaks out, that place will indeed be a strategic location fought over by military strategists. Outside Soto City lies the most fertile Lima Plain in the Douluo Continent, and Soto City is also known as the Barak Granary.

In addition, this place is the gateway to the Heaven Dou Empire and borders the Star Luo Empire, so Qian Renxue naturally does not want this place to fall out of her control.

To Ding Quan's surprise, Qian Renxue did not use the army, but instead quickly resolved the situation by taking action in secret. This has caused the other major duchies to be on edge, showing signs of banding together and even hinting at breaking away from the Tian Dou Empire. This has also made the Tian Dou royal family, or rather, Qian Renxue, much more restrained.

These events have not affected the current Emperor of Tiandou's prestige. On the contrary, the court now completely obeys Qian Renxue's orders. Indeed, an emperor with such ruthless methods is hard to guard against.

"I didn't expect the Heavenly Dou Emperor to act so quickly. Isn't this a bit too hasty?"

Vera, who came in with food, also knew about the recent events on the continent. She just didn't expect the other side to act so quickly. Moreover, Vera also knew a little about the emperor's identity. In that case, the continent would be hard to stay peaceful recently.

"Perhaps she's a little impatient." Ding Quan took the food that Wei'er handed him. During the year they spent in the far north, none of them had eaten much fresh cooked food.

Qian Renxue had been lying low for over twenty years for her plan to seize the country, so she must have been focused on stability. However, the things she did in the past year were too radical and didn't seem to fit her usual style at all.

Could it be that she already knew about and initiated the divine test?
Only in this way could she be so reckless.

If Qian Renxue, already a Soul Saint, hadn't had this so-called plan to usurp the country, she probably would have already begun the Angelic Trial under Qian Daoliu's guidance. "Where's my sister?" Wei'er glanced around the room and couldn't help but look at Ding Quan, who was deep in thought.

"She went to find Shui Bing'er."

"Really? But what do you think of Shui Bing'er, Quan? After all, there might be something like a Martial Soul Fusion Technique between you two." Wei'er looked at Ding Quan with a hint of teasing. The others had already guessed that there was a connection between him and Shui Bing'er, and Ding Quan had even admitted it when they came to Beibing City to rest.

"This did surprise me a bit." Ding Quan took a bite of the food in his hand, then glanced at the golden dragon tattoo on his body.

The connection between myself and Shui Bing'er can't be described as a fusion of martial souls; it's more like the connection between my dragon might and her ice phoenix.

Both the Ice Phoenix and the Golden Dragon are top-tier beings, and looking at the Golden Dragon in the Sea of ​​Spirit, which is very obedient to the Snow Emperor, the gold and water are in harmony.

"Then let's win over Shui Bing'er. Even without consuming the immortal herb, her talent is still no weaker than ours." What Wei'er said was not untrue. Shui Bing'er, who had absorbed the polar phoenix, had now reached level sixty-five in soul power, only one level lower than Wei'er.

Absorbing a spirit ring of a higher level can greatly enhance one's spirit power. After absorbing this spirit ring, which was over 60,000 years old, and the spirit bone produced by the Arctic Luan Bird, Shui Bing'er's spirit power increased by five levels.

"Let's talk about that later. Even if I have a similar spirit fusion skill with her, it won't be of much help to me." Ding Quan shook his head. His true strength had already reached the level of a Title Douluo, and even with a spirit fusion skill, it wouldn't significantly improve his strength.

"The spring is not an aid in terms of strength, but an aid in terms of cultivation."

“That’s right, you don’t need it now, but you might need it later.” A snow-white figure instantly flew out from between Ding Quan’s eyebrows.

"Senior Snow Emperor!" Wei'er exclaimed as she looked at the figure that had appeared.

“Once your strength reaches a certain level, cultivation will definitely become extremely slow. It is also quite difficult for you human titled Douluo to advance each level, especially with your current massive soul power. As far as I know, there are fewer human beings who can cultivate to level ninety-nine than soul beasts.”

"That's true."

Ding Quan did not refute this. He did not possess twin martial souls, and his soul power had reached its current level. Unlike Tang San, he could not rapidly increase his level by absorbing high-age soul rings.

"And you must become a god; that Ice Phoenix Soul Master is your help!" The Snow Empress's cold voice held a hint of seriousness.

"I understand, but..."

"Senior Xue Di is here too, Quan. Don't worry about me and Wei'er. If it's necessary for one more person among us, I have no objection to Bing'er." Ding Quan was about to say something when Ling walked in from outside and greeted Xue Di when she saw her.

"Let's go, Dean Tianshui and Shui Bing'er are waiting for us downstairs."

If Ding Quan and Shui Bing'er possess a similar martial soul fusion skill, then their relationship would naturally be more than just friendship.

Inside the hotel lobby, Dean Tianshui and Shui Bing'er were also having a meal, but their feelings were somewhat complicated.

Dean Tianshui sighed helplessly as he looked at Shui Bing'er, who seemed somewhat distracted.

If someone had told her before that there was a Soul Master in his twenties whose strength had already reached the level of a Title Douluo, she would have scoffed at it.

But now they're right in front of me, and there's more than one of them.

Such talent is simply unprecedented.

Now, Shui Bing'er has come into contact with them, and this contact is somewhat troublesome.

"You've arrived." Dean Tianshui greeted Ding Quan and the others as they approached.

"Senior, Bing'er, we've kept you waiting."

"It's alright, we just finished cleaning up too. Please have a seat."

"Where are you planning to go next?" Dean Tianshui asked with a serious expression after Ding Quan and the others sat down.

"I'm going home to take a look."

"Going home, to the East?"

It's not surprising that Dean Tianshui knows where he comes from. He had told her before that the group came from the easternmost part of the Heavenly Dou Empire. After being away for so long, they should indeed go back and take a look. At their current speed, it won't take long.

"You just looked at the latest information from the mainland." Ding Quan was still holding the newspaper he had bought.

"I took a look."

“That information wasn’t specific. You’ve been in the far north for over a year, and the situation on the continent is quite turbulent now, unlike a year ago. The Heavenly Dou Empire and the remaining major kingdoms are currently vying for power, and that area is the farthest from the Heavenly Dou Imperial City. The forces of several kingdoms are now converging on the Duchy of Bilgi.” The Duchy of Bilgi is the name of the easternmost duchy, and also the country where Ice Sea City is located.

"Is that so?" Ding Quan didn't find it strange.

"Furthermore, the Heaven Dou royal family is currently building up an army, seemingly planning to take action against several major kingdoms. War may break out there soon, and the Heaven Dou Empire's goals may extend far beyond that." Dean Tianshui's expression was solemn. As one of the top advanced soul master academies in the Heaven Dou Empire, Tianshui Academy has its own information channels.

Of course, the family of Dean Tianshui is also quite powerful in the Tiandou Empire. The family members saw long ago that the current Tiandou Emperor was not the humble and gentle prince he used to be, but rather decisive and efficient.

They are currently taking action against several major duchies within the Heavenly Dou Empire. Judging from the fact that the current Heavenly Dou Emperor is still recruiting soldiers, he probably had plans to launch a war before ascending the throne. Moreover, judging from the scale of the war, he has set his sights on the Star Luo Empire.

This was something the previous emperors of the Heaven Dou Empire dared not even dream of. It should be noted that the Star Luo Empire had always been stronger than the Heaven Dou Empire, whether in terms of military strength or the number of powerful individuals. The Heaven Dou Empire was far behind the Star Luo Empire.

If it weren't for the behemoth that was the Spirit Hall mediating, the Star Luo Empire would probably have already declared war on the Heavenly Dou Empire.

"It seems you had already guessed this." Dean Tianshui saw that Ding Quan and the others did not seem surprised. Indeed, a year ago, Ding Quan had been very close to Xue Qinghe, who was the Crown Prince at the time.

Ding Quan did not respond. He did know Qian Renxue's plan: to use the Heaven Dou Empire as a springboard to launch a war against the Star Luo Empire, and then have the Spirit Hall clean up the mess.

Although Bibi Dong wanted to destroy the Angel Clan and the Spirit Hall, judging from her actions, she actually made the Spirit Hall stronger.

Judging from the outcome of the original work, she achieved her goal.

"Senior, let's talk about Bing'er next."

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er immediately raised her head and looked at Ding Quan and Ling Wei, who were watching her from the side.
