Douluo Continent: Martial Soul - Ice and Snow Maiden, Calls Snow Empress "Mom"

One sword strike, instantly killing the five-thousand-year-old ice dragon!

"call……"

Xue Bingchen turned around, looked at the enormous thing that had crashed to the ground, exhaled a long breath of white air, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

"Buzz—"

As the life force of the ice dragon completely disappeared, countless ice-blue light spots surged out of its corpse, eventually condensing in mid-air into a purple soul ring with an extremely deep color and even a faint black glow!

Second Soul Ring: Five Thousand Year Ice Dragon!

Get it!

Looking at the spirit ring that floated silently before him, a deep purple-black color that even faintly exuded a chillingly heavy energy, Xue Bingchen licked his lips in satisfaction.

He was extremely satisfied with the spoils of his hunt!

First of all, as an ice-attribute soul beast with a thin dragon bloodline, the ice dragon contains extremely domineering and pure ice-attribute power. It is absolutely a perfect match to use it as the second soul ring of the "Ice and Snow Maiden" martial soul, no problem at all!

Secondly, the immense energy and dragon blood from these five thousand years are like a perfect tonic for his mysterious second martial soul—"physical body"!

"Five thousand years—that should be the absolute limit my current body can withstand. Any higher, and I'd risk exploding; any lower, and it would be a waste of the monstrous talent of my twin martial souls!"

Xue Bingchen secretly made plans in his mind.

After making up his mind, he did not start absorbing immediately, but instead had a thought.

"Buzz—"

The first soul ring beneath his feet, representing the 1,400-year-old polar ice spirit, instantly lit up with a dazzling purple light.

"First Soul Skill, Dance of Snow!"

Even in this desolate northern outskirts, even without any spectators, Xue Bingchen unhesitatingly unleashed this soul skill that he found somewhat "shameful".

He danced quickly and briefly to a strange rhythm in the wind and snow. Although his movements were no longer as stiff as they were at the beginning, they still carried a bit of boyish stubbornness.

The dance is over!

"Whoosh!"

A strange, icy blue halo descended from the sky, enveloping him entirely.

Cool!

Xue Bingchen couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling the power surging wildly within his body like a volcanic eruption.

A 50% boost to all attributes instantly maxed out!

His blood and qi, the resilience of his meridians, his mental strength, his soul power... even his control over ice and snow, all reached an unprecedented peak at this moment!

With this boost as a foundation, the chance of absorbing a five-thousand-year soul ring has soared to one hundred percent!

Just as Xue Bingchen sat down cross-legged, preparing to draw the soul ring into his body.

"call--"

The surrounding gale suddenly softened, and the blizzard seemed to have encountered something extremely terrifying, retreating to both sides.

Immediately afterwards, two stunningly beautiful figures, like fairies descending from the snow, appeared silently before Xue Bingchen.

These are the two absolute overlords of the far north—the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor!

Upon seeing the arrival of the two elders, Xue Bingchen immediately jumped up from the ground, like a child eager to show off to his parents. He excitedly pointed to the ice dragon's corpse on the ground and loudly announced the good news:

"Mom! Aunt Hyotei! Look! I just activated a wisp of the divine power of the 'Emperor Sword' that Mom taught me, and with just one strike, I successfully hunted down a five-thousand-year-old ice dragon!"

Xue Bingchen's little face was full of pride, and her golden and red eyes sparkled.

Looking at the lively little guy in front of her, whose face was full of praise, Xue Di's originally cold and noble face instantly blossomed into a gentle smile that could topple kingdoms.

She reached out her slender hand and affectionately ruffled Xue Bingchen's soft white hair, nodding in satisfaction.

"Yes, Mom saw it. Chen'er did a great job."

In fact, they had seen everything Xue Bingchen did in the sky.

The fluid, effortless dodging, the precise control of timing on the battlefield, and that final, breathtaking "Ice Unparalleled" strike that stunned the snowstorm...

All of this is truly breathtaking!

Looking at Xue Bingchen, Xue Di couldn't help but feel a sense of enlightenment.

If we say that she, the Snow Empress, is an ice and snow maiden born from the heavens and earth of this far north, then...

Then Xue Bingchen in front of us is simply the most beloved chosen one in this far northern world!

"This little guy's second martial soul is 'physical body'... It seems that the reason he can completely ignore the freezing wind and snow in the far north, which is enough to freeze steel, and even thrive here, is not only due to the Ice and Snow Maiden martial soul, but more importantly, his special physique."

Xue Di pondered inwardly, growing increasingly hopeful for Xue Bingchen's future.

Hyotei, standing to the side, stepped forward and circled the purple soul ring twice, her large, emerald-green eyes gleaming with complex light.

She turned to look at Xue Bingchen, her tone tinged with a hint of probing: "Little Chen, are you... really planning to absorb this five-thousand-year-old soul ring? That's five thousand years!"

Xue Bingchen nodded without hesitation, clenching her small fist as she said:

"Of course! This ice dragon is perfect for me, and I can sense that my physical limit is around five thousand years, so absorbing it is just right!"

Upon hearing this, Hyotei couldn't help but purse her lips and subconsciously turned her gaze to Yuki-tei beside her.

Actually, she has a million things she wants to complain about right now:

You brat, your mother went to great lengths to find your second soul ring, and even captured a 4,500-year-old snow elf for you ahead of time!

Although the snow elf is not as old as the ice dragon, it is a pure ice elemental life form, so the absorption effect may not be much weaker than absorbing the ice dragon.

However, Hyotei ultimately swallowed those words.

Because Xiao Bingchen's performance today has clearly exceeded both her and Xue Di's expectations!

The Snow Emperor originally estimated that the Snow Ice Dust's tolerance limit should be around 4,500 years.

But who would have thought that this kid, after running out to gain experience, would raise the Snow Emperor's assessment of him by a full five hundred years with just one sentence!

Five thousand years of soul rings!

This is practically half a ten-thousand-year soul ring!

Looking across the entire human soul master world of Douluo Continent, which level 19 great soul master would dare to touch a 5,000-year-old soul beast when they are only at the second soul ring stage?

Let alone absorbing them, even if a five-thousand-year-old soul beast stood in front of them, the sheer pressure alone would be enough to scare those so-called geniuses so much they would wet their pants!

If this gets out, it will absolutely shock everyone and make countless self-proclaimed genius Soul Masters so ashamed they'd want to bang their heads against a block of tofu!

"Only a little monster like Xiao Bingchen, with a special physique who has eaten thousand-year-old snow lotus and thousand-year-old ice marrow like candy since childhood and also possesses twin top-level martial souls, would dare to have such crazy thoughts!" Ice Emperor clicked his tongue inwardly.
