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

Chapter 30, Third Soul Skill: Snow Maiden's Soul

Upon hearing Hyotei's sudden, delicate shout, Xue Bingchen felt a headache coming on and could only scratch the back of his head, letting out a helpless, bitter laugh.

Just then, a melodious, clear, and cold voice, like the sound of ancient ice colliding, came out of Xue Bingchen's body in a strange way!

"Bing'er, stop fooling around. How many times have I explained to you that I'm in Xiao Chen's body because I'm undergoing a special kind of cultivation?"

Moreover, this is not only beneficial to me, but also greatly helpful for Xiao Chen's cultivation improvement.

That voice was none other than the true ruler of the far north, the Snow Empress, a Snow Heaven Ice Maiden with 700,000 years of cultivation!

Xue Di's figure did not appear, but her clear and cold voice truly came from Xue Bingchen's chest. If outsiders saw this scene, they would be terrified.

However, Hyotei completely ignored Yuki-tei's explanation.

With her hands on her hips, she glared angrily at Xue Bingchen's chest, launching a domineering direct attack: "So what? What does it matter? I don't care if you're cultivating or not, anyway—I want to see you! You better come out here right now!"

Hyotei's extremely blunt, even slightly coquettish words left Xue Bingchen so embarrassed that she felt like she was digging her toes out of a three-bedroom apartment.

"well----"

A deep, helpless sigh came from within Xue Bingchen's body.

Clearly, Xue Di had no way to deal with this willful best friend who had special feelings for her.

With that sigh, a soft, pure white halo suddenly appeared on Xue Bingchen's chest.

Immediately afterwards, a crystal-clear, six-pointed snowflake, exuding an aura of ultimate purity, slowly drifted out from Xue Bingchen's body.

The snowflake twirled in mid-air, then swelled with the wind, instantly transforming into an exquisite and breathtakingly beautiful silhouette!

Her long, snow-white hair cascaded down her back, and her flawless face carried a hint of aloofness and helplessness. A white dress perfectly accentuated her stunning figure.

It is the Snow Emperor!

Upon seeing that Yuki-tei had finally come out, Hyo-tei's face immediately lit up with a bright smile, and she was about to rush over and cuddle with her.

At this moment, Xue Bingchen, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, couldn't help but interject, "Aunt Bingdi, you've witnessed the wonders of my third soul skill so many times over the years, why are you still jealous?"

"I assure you, Mom wasn't slacking off inside me just now; she was making me a little snowman!" Yes, that's right, we were definitely practicing properly!

These words were spoken.

The previously warm atmosphere instantly froze.

At the summit of the snow-capped mountain, only the howling of the cold wind remained.

The two women, Xue Di and Bing Di, turned their heads at the same time, their two beautiful eyes falling on Xue Bingchen.

"Make—make a little snowman?" Hyotei's eyes turned somewhat strange.

A rare, faint blush appeared on Xue Di's usually aloof and beautiful face. She glared at Xue Bingchen and scolded him irritably, "Little Chen! What nonsense are you spouting! What do you mean by 'making a little snowman'? That sounds so awkward!"

Xue Bingchen then belatedly realized that her analogy, in this context, did indeed seem to have a slight ambiguity.

"Ahem, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue! I meant, Mom is helping me gather the power of ice and snow!"

Xue Bingchen blushed and quickly coughed twice to forcefully change the subject.

Actually, you can't really blame Xue Bingchen for talking nonsense.

The root of all this lies in his third soul skill, which is so powerful that it can even be said to have broken the common sense of Douluo Continent!

Xue Bingchen's third soul skill is called—[Soul of the Snow Maiden]!

This is an extremely rare, even unique, domain-type and support-type soul skill!

The purpose of this soul skill is not to attack or defend, but to create a self-contained "ice and snow space" within Xue Bingchen's body!

Once this soul skill is activated, Xue Bingchen can frantically absorb the ice and snow energy from the surrounding world and store it in the ice and snow space within his body.

The violent energy absorbed into the space will gradually transform into the purest and gentlest ultimate ice and snow power after being nurtured and filtered by the ice and snow space. This power will then be fed back to Xue Bingchen, comprehensively improving his physical qualities and greatly accelerating his soul power cultivation speed!

To put it simply, this so-called "ice and snow space" is equivalent to a super "backup hidden energy source" that Xue Bingchen carries with him!

As long as there is stock in this energy reservoir, Xue Bingchen can consume this stored energy as a means to replenish his soul power or to enhance his soul power through cultivation.

What's most unbelievable, and even the Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor found it incomprehensible, is that—

Snow Empress, a snow maiden born from the purest ice and snow elements, can transform into a snowflake and enter the ice and snow space within Xue Bingchen's body without any hindrance!

This explains why Xue Di's voice came from Xue Bingchen's body just now.

Just now, Xue Di was indeed in Xue Bingchen's ice and snow space, using her absolute control over ice and snow elements as a 700,000-year-old ferocious beast to help him accelerate the nurturing of those mixed energies, quickly transforming them into pure ice and snow power that could assist Xue Bingchen's cultivation.

This is why Xue Bingchen jokingly said he was "making little snowmen," because Xue Di was indeed helping him create and purify energy crystals inside. Some of the crystals piled up did indeed look like little snowmen, so he wasn't wrong.

As for why Xue Di was willing to stay inside?

In Xue Di's own words, the icy space within Xue Bingchen's body was filled with the most primal and purest extreme ice aura.

Being inside gave her a sense of intimacy, as if she were embracing the very core of the far north.

In that space, she not only didn't need to expend energy to resist the suppression of external rules, but she also felt very comfortable and at ease cultivating.

Since she was comfortable inside and could also help her beloved Xiao Bingchen accelerate her cultivation, Xue Di thought it was a mutually beneficial thing, so why not do it?

In the Douluo Continent, there has always been an ironclad rule, which was not systematically summarized until ten thousand years later.

That is—the possessor of an ultimate martial soul, whose cultivation speed will far exceed that of ordinary people before level 30.

However, once they break through level 30, because the martial spirit attributes they possess are too extreme and too domineering, their bodies need to spend a lot of time adapting and refining.

This will cause their cultivation speed to become extremely slow, like a tortoise crawling, in the stage from level 30 to level 7000!

This is what is known as the "curse of the ultimate martial spirit"!

This is also why there are very few people on the mainland who possess martial souls with ultimate attributes.

However, this ironclad rule was completely shattered in Xue Bingchen's case!

P.S.: The next chapter will be about soul power levels. Guess how many! If you guess correctly, I'll give away a rare photo of you in women's clothing! [Chengdu Past]
