Douluo Continent: I am the Ice Archer, my ice power is invincible.

Chapter 38 The Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Ice Jade Scorpion

Half a month later, Xiao Han and his group of five arrived at the Frozen Forest.

The group first found a suitable soul beast for Shui Yue'er and helped her hunt it down.

After absorbing the soul ring, Shui Yue'er's soul power directly reached level 35, and she gained a soul skill that could deal high damage—Frost Spear.

This time, in addition to Xiao Han, Shui Bing'er, and Shui Yue'er, Lin Zhiruo will also hunt soul beasts to obtain her eighth soul ring.

In addition, Xue Wu also has the opportunity to obtain her fourth spirit ring.

She is currently at the bottleneck of level 40. After absorbing the immortal herb, her cultivation speed will be improved, and she may be able to break through soon.

The group continued searching for suitable soul beasts for Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er in the forest.

After several days of searching, they finally found an Ice Blue Phoenix in a valley.

Lin Zhiruo was somewhat excited.

"It is a blue ice phoenix with nearly ten thousand years of cultivation."

"Mom, it's perfect for Bing'er's fourth spirit ring."

Shui Bing'er absorbed the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, which was enough to withstand it.

The icy blue phoenix perched quietly in the deep valley, surrounded by a faint layer of cold air that seemed capable of freezing the air.

Its body is slender and elegant, and its feathers are a deep blue that shimmers with a cool yet captivating luster.

Its beak is sharp and slender, gleaming with a cold light, like a sharp ice blade.

Those deep eyes held a chilling coldness and majesty that made one afraid to look directly at them.

The arrival of Xiao Han and his group caught its attention.

It suddenly spread its wings, took off, and launched an attack on the group.

"Everyone be careful!"

As Xiao Han spoke, he released his martial spirit and spirit rings, and was the first to go forward.

Each feather of the Frost Blue Phoenix seemed to contain endless power and chill; with a gentle flap, countless ice spikes pierced towards the group.

Xiao Han drew the bowstring taut and activated his second soul skill, "Ten Thousand Arrows Fired."

Under Xiao Han's control, countless arrows instantly condensed into a dense rain of ice-blue arrows, which collided fiercely in the air with the ice spikes released by the Ice Blue Phoenix, producing a crisp and ear-piercing cracking sound.

Xiao Han's arrows were infused with cold fire, making them even more powerful.

A thin layer of mist immediately filled the air.

As large snowflakes fell from the sky, Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu quietly completed their martial soul fusion technique.

A giant ice phoenix soared into the sky and sped toward the icy blue phoenix.

After absorbing the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, Shui Bing'er was able to fully control the power of her Martial Soul, the Ice Phoenix.

Her Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Xue Wu briefly boosted her strength to the Soul Emperor level.

Under the suppression of her extreme cold power, the speed of the icy blue phoenix decreased drastically, and it was successfully intercepted after flying only a few dozen meters.

Without hesitation, Shui Bing'er delivered a powerful aerial slash, ending its life.

The battle ended quickly.

Lin Zhiruo and Shui Yue'er watched the whole thing from the sidelines without making a move.

"Sisters, you guys are amazing!"

Shui Bing'er smiled slightly and said modestly:

"Thanks to Xiaohan's use of the volley of arrows to block its attack, Xuewu and I had the opportunity to unleash our Martial Soul Fusion Technique."

Lin Zhiruo nodded with satisfaction.

"Your teamwork is getting better and better, and the power of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is becoming even stronger."

"Speaking of which, it's all because of the immortal herb that Xiao Han gave me."

"Bing'er, you're too modest. Alright, go absorb that spirit ring now, we'll protect you."

"it is good."

After adjusting her state, Shui Bing'er began to absorb the soul ring.

Xiao Han and his companions waited nearby.

Three hours later, Shui Bing'er completely absorbed the soul ring.

Feeling the surging soul power within her body, Shui Bing'er found it incredible.

Xiao Han was the first to walk over.

"Bing'er, how is it? Has your soul power increased a lot?"

"Yes. Just as you said, the soul power stored up before has been revealed because of the acquisition of the new soul ring."

Shuiyue asked impatiently:

"Sister, what level has your soul power reached now?"

Level 45.

"Level 45?!"

Shuiyue'er and Xuewu were both incredulous.

"That magical herb truly lives up to its reputation as the king of flowers; it has brought such a significant improvement to my sister."

"Yes. More importantly, it helps me to better control the power of the Ice Phoenix."

Xiao Han joked:

"That's great, Bing'er's soul power has surpassed mine."

"You haven't obtained your fourth spirit ring yet."

"I know in my heart that even if I get my fourth spirit ring, I won't reach level 45 unless it's a 100,000-year spirit ring. But obviously, that's impossible, haha~"

Xiao Han was genuinely happy for Shui Bing'er, because after consuming the immortal herb, Shui Bing'er's fate would be completely changed.

Xuewu asked:

"Bing'er, what is your fourth soul skill?"

"It's an offensive buff skill, similar to the attack the Frost Blue Phoenix just used. When I use this soul skill, I can launch ice spikes from my wings, inflicting a freezing effect. At the same time, my speed, attack, and defense are all increased by 100%. I call it 'Phoenix Ice Spikes'."

Xiao Han took over the conversation.

"This soul skill is great; Bing'er's attack power has increased significantly."

Lin Zhiruo nodded and said:

"Bing'er's fourth soul skill is indeed quite good. When used in conjunction with the previous soul skills, it can be said to be almost perfect. Next, it's time to find a suitable soul beast for Xiao Han."

"Okay, let's go then."

The group slowly made their way into the depths of the frozen forest.

The air around them grew colder, and the snow in the forest was deep, making each step a heavy thud.

Just as everyone was cautiously searching their surroundings for a suitable soul beast for Xiao Han, a faint but unsettling rustling sound came from beneath the snow.

Xiao Han immediately stopped in his tracks, his eyes blazing as he scanned his surroundings.

"Everyone be careful, something's up!"

Before he could finish speaking, the snow suddenly split open, and a huge soul beast covered with crystal-clear blue-black scales suddenly rushed out, heading straight for Xiao Han.

Its eyes gleamed with an eerie green light, and the long, thin, sharp barb on its tail reflected a deadly glint in the sunlight, clearly indicating the immense power it possessed.

"It's an Ice Jade Scorpion!"

Lin Zhiruo recognized the identity of the soul beast and released her own martial soul to prepare for battle.

The scorpion is the most dangerous of the five poisonous creatures, and its venom is more threatening than that of centipedes, spiders, snakes, geckos, toads, and other venomous spirit beasts.

However, in order to pursue the ultimate ice path, the Ice Jade Scorpion clan abandoned the cultivation of poison and focused on ice elemental abilities.

Facing this Ice Jade Scorpion, whose cultivation had reached ten thousand years, Lin Zhiruo dared not be careless.

"This Ice Jade Scorpion has cultivated for ten thousand years! You all step back!"

"Mom, this thing came at the perfect time. I'll make it my fourth spirit ring!"

Xiao Han was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he was very excited.

"You brat, are you crazy? This is a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!"

"We need a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!"

Xiao Han was full of confidence.

He believed that with his current abilities, absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring would be no problem at all.
