Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 97 Transformation
Upon hearing about the function of the elixir, Xia Die gasped in shock.

"System, this shouldn't attract lightning tribulation, right?"

This powerful treasure, setting aside everything else, is extremely powerful simply because it allows one to comprehend the laws of fire and ice.

[Yes, it will. I suggest you stay away from here and go to a safe place. The lightning tribulation generated by this pill is enough to turn the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy into ruins.]

!!!

Upon hearing this, Xia Die's eyes were filled with shock. She hadn't expected the pill to be so powerful. She decided to leave this place and try to stay away from it.

When Jing Hongchen came out, he saw Xia Die and took the opportunity to ask her the questions that had been bothering him.

"Ah Die, you've come out of seclusion. How did it go?"

Xia Die shook her head and said, "The seclusion is not over, it just needs to be moved to a different place."

At this moment, Jing Hongchen saw the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Pill beside Xia Die.

"This is……"

"I've refined the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Vegetable into a pill. The power within is somewhat terrifying and might affect this place. I'll go to a quiet place to refine it. By the way, where's my teacher?"

"Master Kong, he used some immortal herbs to break through the threshold of level ninety-nine."

With the addition of a divine artifact, the Limit Douluo's strength will likely increase even further.

"Oh, I see. I'll be going now."

Xia Die flashed away and arrived at a desolate place where she wouldn't be bothered by anyone. She then knelt on a boulder, slowly began to swallow, closed her eyes, and began to experience the process.

The moment the pill entered his mouth, his entire body tensed abruptly. He instantly felt a strange sensation of ice and fire swirling within him—the chill felt like a poisoned dagger piercing his dantian, followed closely by a scorching heat like boiling magma. The two forces collided violently in his meridians, instantly turning his dantian into a chaotic vortex. Spiderweb-like ice cracks and burn marks appeared on his skin, as if he were being simultaneously sliced ​​by a thousand knives and roasted by raging fire.

Intense pain surged like a tidal wave. Xia Die curled up on the ground, her fingernails digging deep into the bluestone pavement. Blood seeping from between her fingers froze into ice shards upon hitting the ground, while the other half evaporated into a blood mist. The power of the laws of ice and fire within her body surged wildly along her twelve meridians. Each impact caused her meridians to crack and pop under the strain. Her consciousness was on the verge of shattering in the excruciating pain, but it was held back by the silver-white patterns flowing within her heart, preventing it from completely collapsing.

Just as the Yin and Yang energies clashed fiercely in the dantian, the sky suddenly darkened like ink, layers of dark clouds surged and gathered, and faint purple-gold lightning lurked deep within the clouds. As Xia Die's aura emanated, the first tribulation lightning descended from the heavens! The lightning, carrying a world-destroying pressure, struck directly at the figure kneeling in the center of the ice and fire storm, colliding violently with the chaotic ice and fire power within her body.

In an instant, Xia Die's body erupted with blinding light. Frost and flames twisted wildly under the ravages of the lightning tribulation, and his skin repeatedly cracked and healed in extreme cold and heat. He clenched his teeth, on the verge of breaking in excruciating pain, but was held back by the silver-white patterns flowing within his heart, preventing him from completely collapsing.

"No way, it really attracted a lightning tribulation."

Having withstood a lightning tribulation, the power of the laws merged into it, and its power was surprisingly strong. Although it had a death curse, this power was a lightning tribulation composed of the power of the laws. Although it could not compare to the nine lightning tribulations that Lan Xuanyu had experienced in the Dragon Horse Galaxy, it was still comparable.

If it were a tribulation of lightning from the Heavenly Dao, one's own dimensional mother could offset part of it, but this tribulation of lightning is determined by the rules of the universe, and it is not something that ordinary people can control.

Immediately following, the second and third bolts of tribulation lightning arrived in quick succession, each more violent than the last. The lightning, like silver serpents, coiled around Xia Die's body, transforming her meridians into blazing plasma channels. The power of ice and fire grew increasingly ferocious under the tempering of the tribulation. Endless cold sweat dripped from Xia Die's forehead; her eyes were tightly closed, yet radiated determination. Using the silver-white patterns within her dantian as a guide, she forcefully directed the three powers of tribulation lightning, ice, and fire to merge within her dantian.

But during the process, a gentle force repaired its own body.

As the seventh bolt of tribulation lightning crashed down, the Yin and Yang energies in his dantian suddenly transformed into a phantom Tai Chi diagram, colliding with the lightning to create a deafening roar. Ice and fire swirled and merged wildly in the tempering of the tribulation lightning, and the torn meridians began to heal at a visible speed. The reconstructed meridians gleamed with a crystalline luster and were several times wider than before; his bones and muscles, forged like refined steel in the triple tempering of ice, fire, and lightning, burst forth with vigorous power from every inch of his skin.

Runes of law-based power appeared on his body, shimmering with dazzling golden light, as if they were about to envelop the heavens and earth.

Seven days later, the tribulation clouds slowly dissipated, and the kneeling Xia Die was surrounded by the faint aura of the laws of ice and fire. The transformation she had undergone was not insignificant; her physical body had reached its ultimate sublimation, becoming as indestructible as a divine weapon.

My soul power has now reached level 74, shining as brightly as a god.

"It'll be soon. I'm level 74 now, and it won't be long before I reach the peak combat power of Xia Die."

The changes were naturally beyond imagination; strength, speed, defense, and physical strength were all greatly enhanced.

Her bones and meridians have undergone effective changes, her soul seems to have the idea of ​​accumulating divine consciousness, and her spiritual power has reached the level of a god. In other words, it is no exaggeration to say that Xia Die is now the number one person below the gods.

Now that he has basically reached the level of the laws, even without using his martial soul, he can suppress anyone below the god level simply by exerting his pressure.

Level is one thing, but strength is another.

His aura was like that of a god, and the external soul bone bestowed upon him by the Snow Emperor had transformed into wings formed by the power of the laws of ice and fire.

My first martial soul's seventh soul skill is called Death's Roar - Resurrection Bell. It summons the Death Dragon Polyches and enters the [Lost World Netherworld]. Under the protection of the moon, all soul skills are further enhanced. During this time, I cannot touch the Butterfly. Anyone who is more than three meters away will die (except for teammates). In addition, my teammates' attacks will ignore defense, and enemies will have their original strength suppressed by 60%.

Some abilities have also been enhanced. "It's time to go back."

Xia Die glanced around, then dispersed her aura, making it impossible for anyone to know that the person attracted by the lightning tribulation was none other than herself.

After doing all this, Xia Die vanished in a flash.

Before long, many powerful experts from the Sun and Moon realms came here to investigate, but they all found nothing.

When all these people were gone, a pair of eyes appeared in the sky. At this time, no one noticed this abnormality.

He let out a slight sigh.

"Son, don't do anything so dangerous next time."

………………

Meanwhile, back at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he had only been refining this for about seven days, while Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had already finished their seclusion earlier than Xia Die.

On the way back, I took a shower first, and I felt incredibly strong.

When they came out, they were all waiting for them here.

"Ah Die, you're so slow. It took you seven days to finish absorbing it."

"After all, the pills refined from the core of the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Delicate Vegetable have far greater power than the originals, so the refining process naturally took longer. How was your harvest?" Xia Die said with a smile.

Meng Hongchen stood up and hugged Xia Die, saying, "Thank you, A Die. Now, thanks to your immortal herb, I have successfully gotten rid of the predicament that has plagued me all these years. I, the Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad, have already acquired the ultimate ice attribute, and I have completely absorbed that piece of Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone."

To put it bluntly, Meng Hongchen's future is destined to be bright!
Reaching the Limit Douluo level is not a problem; perhaps even reaching the level of a distant god is not out of the question.

"As for me, my martial soul has reached the ultimate metal level, and I can control metal at will. I feel that my confidence as the number one genius has returned."

Xia Die leaned close to Xiao Hongchen's ear and said playfully, "Senior Xiao Hongchen, don't be too happy yet. You've also broken through. If I remember correctly, before the competition, you became a Level 5 Soul Master, and it was with my help that you became the Ultimate Gold. Shall we have a one-on-one duel?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongchen's smile froze instantly, and he pleaded, "No way, Adie, in our year, apart from Qiu'er and Na'er who can hold their own against you, who in my year can beat you?"

"Okay, then we won't fight."

Of the remaining people, Wang Dong'er had used the immortal herb, and the Light Goddess Butterfly's Light attribute reached its peak, allowing her soul power to break through to level 40.

Xiao Xiao's Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron has become stronger, reaching the ultimate level of defense, and her soul power has broken through to level 30.

Wang Qiu'er and Gu Yuena have both broken through to level 70, and there are still fairy herbs suitable for them.

Jiu Li's martial soul, the Annihilation Flame Spear, reached the ultimate fire attribute, making her even stronger, and her soul power broke through to level sixty.

Ling Luochen and Baili Chen have broken through to level 60. Although their attributes have not yet reached their maximum, they will reach that level in the future.

In general, it's now necessary to acquire spirit rings.

Jing Hongchen said, "It seems we all need to hunt for soul rings."

"By the way, Master, you've consumed immortal herbs. You still have plenty left; they'll be helpful for your cultivation."

"Don't worry, I've taken it. Thanks to you, our Sun Moon Empire has gained several more strong individuals. I'm already level 98, and Elder Kong and Elder Ni have reached the Limit Douluo level. Our Sun Moon Empire has been strengthened once again."

"Level 98? Grandpa, can you beat Xuanzi from Shrek Academy now...?"

"Ouch!"

Before Xiao Hongchen could finish speaking, Jing Hongchen punched him on the head.

“If you can’t speak properly, then don’t speak at all. Xuanzi shouldn’t even be in the ranking of Title Douluos. He’s not even on the Power Ranking, so let’s not even mention him. He can only bully ordinary Title Douluos, he’s nothing.” Jing Hongchen said.

Everyone burst into laughter.

After things calmed down, he said, "Before we go hunting soul beasts, I have something to tell you all. While you were in seclusion, Shrek Academy submitted its list of exchange students."
