Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 679 Like a Dream

The gains from this trip to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire were so great that even Han Hao himself couldn't believe it. Even after leaving the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Han Hao was still in a daze.

Originally, Han Hao only wanted to use the medicinal power of the immortal herb to push his essence, energy and spirit to the level of Soul King. Now, not only has he achieved his wish, but he has also obtained two 100,000-year soul bones and a 100,000-year soul ring. Han Hao was not in a hurry to absorb the soul bones. Instead, the soul rings of the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot provided perfect first soul rings for Han Hao's second martial soul!

Under Han Hao's Ring Fusion Technique, the first soul ring with the ultimate ice and fire attributes was a perfect match for the Ice and Fire Forbidden God Statue!

Its feedback power is even more exaggerated. If Han Hao's first martial soul hadn't had time to absorb the fifth soul ring, Han Hao's soul power cultivation would probably have directly soared to level fifty-six or fifty-seven!

This is all under the premise that a massive amount of energy has been stored in Han Hao's body!

This is not an exaggeration at all. You should know that in addition to the two 100,000-year soul rings, Han Hao also consumed three top-grade immortal herbs, all of which were personally selected by Yan Lingji for Han Hao and absolutely met his needs. Since he has transformed into human form, he naturally cannot use the name Yan Lingmao anymore. Yan Lingmao has never given himself any name. It's just that he has been given the name Yan Lingji while traveling on the continent for the past ten thousand years.

In addition, Yan Lingji also stated that Han Hao could come to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to cultivate at any time, and he could take anything he wanted from within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!

Han Hao was naturally happy to be able to cultivate in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, but now was not the time for seclusion. Because of Yan Lingji, Han Hao's first step was extremely smooth, but it was only the beginning. The far north and the southern Ming region were still waiting for Han Hao, and there was still a lot of potential in Han Hao that had not yet been activated.

After learning of Han Hao's plan, Yan Lingji volunteered to help him hunt a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Yan Lingji is not weak. Back when she was by Han Feng's side, she also received some divine grace. Her talent was among the top few in the soul beasts.

In addition, with the unique cultivation environment and almost inexhaustible resources within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Yan Lingji is not much weaker than the top ten ferocious beasts of the world. Although she is still far from the top three, in a real battle, she is on par with Bi Ji, who is ranked fourth!

According to the classification of human strength, Yan Lingji's current strength should be around level 98, which is much higher than that of an ordinary peerless Douluo, but there is still a considerable gap compared to a Limit Douluo.

With this kind of strength, as long as it's not a ferocious beast on the list, it would be more than enough to hunt a 100,000-year-old soul beast!

Yan Lingji was only focused on protecting the traces Han Feng left on the continent and did not participate in the affairs of the Soul Beast Clan, so her reputation remained unknown.

Han Hao was overjoyed when he heard that Yan Lingji was willing to lend a helping hand.

He originally planned to go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to ask Zhenbing Douluo or Chitian Douluo for help. After all, no matter how strong Han Hao's talent was or how heaven-defying his martial soul was, he couldn't defeat a 100,000-year-old soul beast at level 50. He had no choice but to rely on others.

But now that Yan Lingji is willing to help, there's no need to trouble Zhenbing Douluo and Chitian Douluo!

Soul beasts know soul beasts best. Yan Lingji comes from a soul beast clan. She knows better than the two from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School where there are 100,000-year-old soul beasts, where they are powerful, and where they are more compatible with Han Hao's attributes!

At Yan Lingji's suggestion, they decided to go directly to the far north to first resolve the soul ring requirement of the Frost End of the Ice and Fire Forbidden God Statue.

To be honest, Han Hao was still a little apprehensive about the far north—that was the place where the strongest people on the continent were located!

Over the course of ten thousand years, the Snow Empress, who received the gift of the Ice God's 100,000 years of cultivation and the cultivation method of the Ice and Snow Elves, has been transforming almost every day. Her extremely solid 900,000 years of cultivation is far beyond what the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and the likes of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm can compare to. She was able to withstand the Ninth Heavenly Tribulation without being injured. Even a small part of her strength is enough to shock the entire continent. Even the arrogant Emperor Tian has to give way in front of the Snow Empress!

No one knows exactly what level the Snow Emperor has reached, but what is certain is that if the Snow Emperor were willing, she could break through a million years of cultivation and ascend to immortality at any time!

But the Snow Empress never did that; she remained hidden in the far north, living a life of seclusion.

Fortunately, the Snow Empress had no intention of interfering in the situation on the continent. Otherwise, if the Snow Empress and the Emperor had joined forces, the situation on the continent would probably not have been the three great empires holding each other back, but a war between humans and soul beasts!

Admittedly, Han Hao knew that his father and Xue Di had a past relationship, and Xue Di had even protected Han Feng before.

But according to Han Feng, it was just a transaction back then. They didn't have a deep relationship; it was just a matter of each getting what they wanted. Moreover, the Snow Empress was the embodiment of ice and snow, cold on the outside and cold on the inside. Who knows if, after ten thousand years, the Snow Empress would still remember the King's friendship!

To be honest, Han Hao was a little unsure about sending himself so recklessly to the far north to hunt 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

However, Yan Lingji was extremely confident, and even told Han Hao that of all the places in the world where soul beasts gathered, the place where Han Hao needed to be least cautious was the far north!

In the far north, there are three Heavenly Kings. The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion is facing a bottleneck and is about to undergo its fourth Heavenly Tribulation, but it does not have the strength to overcome it. The soul blood of the Titan Snow Demon King is still in Han Feng's hands. Even if he had a hundred times the courage, he would not dare to touch Han Hao in the slightest. Although the Snow Emperor is strong, it is precisely because of her strength that she is increasingly wary of the gods!

Others may not know, but Yan Lingji knows that if Xue Di wanted to ascend, she could do so at any time. The reason she has been holding back is not because she still has any attachment to the mainland, but simply because she is accumulating strength!

Xue Di witnessed the war of the gods and knew about the God Realm's rejection of soul beasts. She also saw the Asura God and the God of Defense descend upon Douluo Continent. She knew that although she was strong, she was still insignificant in front of the vast God Realm!

In fact, after ten thousand years of accumulation, the Snow Empress only needs to break through a million years of cultivation to achieve the second-level godhood in one fell swoop. However, the second-level godhood is still not enough. The Snow Empress needs the foundation of a first-level god. Only by ascending to the God Realm as a first-level god can the Snow Empress have the possibility of establishing herself in the God Realm!

Xue Di is indeed exceptionally talented and unparalleled, even able to accumulate her foundation to the level of a second-level god in a lower realm like Douluo Continent!

But Xue Di lost because of its background.

If the Snow Empress had not been born in Douluo Continent, or if she had been born tens of thousands of years earlier, she would already be a supreme god who looks down upon all realms!

Getting back to the main point, under Yan Lingji's guidance, Han Hao quickly arrived in the far north and went straight into the core area—in fact, for Han Hao, the core area of ​​the far north, a forbidden zone for humans, was the safest place.

In the mixed zone and the outer area, there were still some low-level soul beasts that had not yet developed intelligence. They didn't understand anything and might hurt Han Hao if they acted rashly. But once they entered the core zone, no soul beast was so brainless anymore!

As far as Han Hao knew, there weren't many soul beasts in the far north that he could hunt. After all, Han Hao's requirements were quite high, requiring at least 100,000 years of cultivation. However, in the far north, the Snow Empress was out of the question, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion was already Huo Yuhao's soul spirit, and the Ice Bear King seemed to have a close relationship with the Snow Empress, so he wasn't considered either. The Titan Snow Demon King could be included in the shortlist.

But Han Hao knew that outside the far north, there was a place called the Xuanming Land!

The place was affected by the resentment of the Dragon God, and all the soul beasts that entered it went mad. That's where Han Feng found his soul ring!

If you want to go to the Xuanming Land, you can't avoid mentioning the Snow Emperor.

Han Hao originally planned to wait until he was stronger before making a deal with Xue Di, as that would give him a better chance of success. However, Yan Ling Ji insisted, so Han Hao had no choice but to trust her this time.

Unfortunately, the Snow Empress seemed unwilling to see Han Hao and Yan Lingji.

This left Han Hao and Yan Lingji feeling quite helpless. Xue Di was undoubtedly the number one person in Douluo Continent. As long as no successor of the gods appeared, she would be the uncrowned queen. If she didn't want to see Han Hao and Yan Lingji, no one could force her!

This left Yan Lingji somewhat frustrated—perhaps the Snow Empress no longer wanted to be entangled in the karma of the gods?

Left with no other choice, Yan Lingji decided that if Xue Di still refused to see them in five days, she would return to Nanming.

Han Hao naturally had no objections. In fact, he was already considering whether to just kill the Titan Snow Demon King!

Anyway, the Titan Snow Demon King has already lived for another ten thousand years!

On the fifth day, Han Hao and Yan Lingji were about to give up, but Han Hao suddenly sensed something and called out to Yan Lingji, "Aunt Ling! There's a sealing barrier here!"

"Hmm!?" Yan Lingji frowned upon hearing this, extending her spiritual power but finding nothing, and couldn't help but ask Han Hao, "Little Hao?"

Han Hao frowned. His Ice and Fire Forbidden God Statue told him that there was definitely a sealing barrier here. The Ice and Fire Forbidden God Statue had never malfunctioned, but Yan Lingji seemed completely unaware.

Just then, Yan Lingji's eyes suddenly lit up!

With his own cultivation level, he couldn't detect it at all, while Han Hao was able to sense it. In this far north, who else but the Snow Empress could possess such ability?

Thinking of this, Yan Lingji quickly asked Han Hao, "Xiao Hao! Can you try to bring Aunt Ling into the barrier here?!"

Han Hao blinked, looked at the expectant Yan Lingji, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I'll give it a try!"

Then, Han Hao summoned the Ice and Fire Forbidden God Statue, took Yan Lingji's hand, and released his soul power. The ability to break the barrier surged, and the space in front of Han Hao and Yan Lingji began to crack like a mirror. Then, with a "crack," the barrier cracked open, but Han Hao was amazed by the scene in front of him!

In the far north, amidst ice and snow, there is a hot spring. Warm mist swirls around the ice and snow, adorned with glistening frost. Four magnificent ice pillars stand there, and in the mist, a stunningly beautiful figure flashes by in the hazy distance.

Long, snow-white hair cascaded down, floating and spreading across the water's surface. Most of the figure was submerged, and Han Hao only caught a glimpse of her graceful back, yet he remained frozen in place.

Honestly, Han Hao never expected things to turn out like this!

This stunning scene didn't last long, or rather, it didn't even last a moment. Before Han Hao could react, the barrier swirled up a blizzard, obscuring Han Hao's vision and leaving only a dreamlike picture in his mind!
