Douluo Continent: Starting from Tianshui Academy

Chapter 442 Shui Bing'er's Unbelievable Improvement

When Hyotei heard about the 40-year Heavenly Tribulation, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, instantly sobering him up. He recalled how he had survived the 30-year Heavenly Tribulation of ferocious beasts a thousand years ago, a near-death experience.

"Ye Liangchen, if I consume these treasures now, my cultivation will quickly reach 40 years. When the Heavenly Tribulation of the ferocious beasts arrives, will you have a way to help me resolve it?"

Hyotei stared longingly at Ye Liangchen, thinking that this guy would become a god in the future and that she had to quickly latch onto his coattails.

"have!"

"I have a spatial treasure that can put you inside, allowing you to avoid any heavenly tribulations and ensuring you can cultivate for a million years without any problem. However, once you are inside, you will automatically become my soul beast pet."

Ye Liangchen never expected that the usually arrogant Ice Emperor would show him this kind of attitude. It was really unexpected. It seems that this girl wants to curry favor with him!

"Is it the spatial artifact you took away before, the one that destroyed the Ice God's broken divine core? Can I take a look?"

When Xue Di saw that Ye Liangchen had such methods, she was extremely surprised.

"That spatial treasure is like a soul bone, fused into my body, so I can't show it to anyone."

Ye Liangchen earnestly deceived Xue Di, saying that his cheat was something from another dimension and couldn't be shown to outsiders.

"That's amazing!" Xue Di stared intently at Ye Liangchen with her beautiful eyes, but couldn't see anything.

"Currently, Xiao Chen has several soul beast pets under his command, including a 100,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, a 100,000-year-old Blue Scale Flood Dragon, and two Deep Sea Demon Whales, namely the wife and daughter of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, one of which has a cultivation level of 400,000 years. In addition, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is also considered his pet soul beast, but Xiao Chen blinded its other eye back then, so it could not see anything while it was alive. Therefore, that big whale was sacrificed to me as my ninth soul ring, and its soul is preserved in the soul ring. When I inherit the position of Sea God, I will help it rebuild its physical body."

"All of these soul beasts were subdued by Xiao Chen and then stored in his spatial treasures."

"Becoming Xiao Chen's pet soul beast is not a loss. For example, that 100,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger often transforms into human form and eats, drinks, and plays with us. It's pretty much like a human. It's quite good."

"Hyotei, do you want to give it a try?"

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er chuckled as they teased Bingdi, saying that it would be incredibly pleasant if this proud little loli could stay by their side.

"You actually collected so many powerful soul beast pets?"

At this moment, Xue Di didn't know how to describe Ye Liangchen, especially since this guy had taken a 100,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger as a pet, which was a legendary super soul beast!

However, when Xue Di heard that Ye Liangchen had a method to help her avoid the heavenly tribulation, she was actually a little tempted. But she only had 62 years of cultivation at the moment, so she would wait until her cultivation reached 70 years before considering it. If she couldn't survive by then, she would have no choice but to ask this guy for help.

"I don't want to be his pet spirit beast."

Ice Emperor quickly shook his head, saying he couldn't accept being Ye Liangchen's pet soul beast.

"Then you'd better figure it out yourself! I see you have 320,000 years of cultivation, and this time you've obtained so many 10,000-year-old Xuanbing Marrow. You need to control your mouth. If I haven't become a god yet, and you just gobble up all these treasures, your cultivation will skyrocket and reach 400,000 years in no time. When the Heavenly Tribulation comes, I won't be able to save you."

Ye Liangchen also knew that no soul beast would willingly become someone else's pet.

"Ice Emperor, I'll put these ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow away for you, so you won't lose control of your mouth."

"Whoosh..."

Seeing this, Xue Di directly placed Bing Di's Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow on herself, which was a safer option.

"Hyotei has suddenly become penniless."

Watching Xue Di's actions, Ye Liangchen recalled how, in his previous life on Blue Star, elders would also steal children's New Year's money in the same way. It was so funny.

"Snow Emperor, aren't you leaving me even a single piece?"

The treasures she had just acquired, barely warmed up before being taken away by the Snow Empress, left the Ice Empress feeling utterly heartbroken.

"Don't worry, I'll give it to you later."

Xue Di chuckled. Bing Di was like her younger sister, so naturally, the older sister had to keep an eye on her.

"Click..."

The group then began digging downwards again, and soon they had collected a lot of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Mystic Ice Marrow. In the end, a few of them also dug up some top-grade Cold Jade.

"This kind of cold jade is quite magical. Xiao Chen, help me pack some up. When we get back to Tenglong City, use this jade to set up a spirit-gathering array for me."

Shui Bing'er held the pure white, icy jade, feeling that it would be helpful to her cultivation.

"No problem." Ye Liangchen nodded and then directly put tens of thousands of kilograms of Cold Marrow Jade into his game backpack.

"Let's stay here for now and let this cold jade continue to nurture the Mystic Ice Marrow!"

They also collected a lot of Frost Marrow Jade in the snow, but then realized that they couldn't just take all of these treasures at once.

"Of course, we still need to seal this place off." Ye Liangchen agreed with Xue Di's opinion.

"Splash..."

Afterwards, everyone emerged from the ice crevice and immediately activated their soul skills to shatter the iceberg, sealing the massive crack in ice.

"Xiao Chen, help me set up a spirit-gathering array. I plan to absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow to enhance my soul power."

Shui Bing'er felt that this far north was a natural, super-simulated cultivation environment for her, where her soul power could be increased very quickly. So she planned to cultivate for a while before returning to Tianshui City.

"No problem," Ye Liangchen nodded.

"Let's go back to my place and continue cultivating!"

Xue Di invited Ye Liangchen and the other two to her residence. After spending so much time together, they could be considered friends.

"Thank you, Snow Emperor."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Seeing this, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er quickly pulled Ye Liangchen to follow Xue Di.

"Whoosh..." Ye Liangchen then set up a Nine-Star Spirit Gathering Array around the Ice Palace where the Snow Emperor lived. In an instant, energy from all directions began to gather here.

"Buzzing..."

Shui Bing'er took out the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and absorbed it with all her might, trying to use these treasures to raise her soul power to around level 98.

Shuiyue'er also began absorbing some treasures. She was only half a level away from level 99, so she couldn't waste any more time.

The Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor were also absorbing some Xuanbing Marrow to improve their cultivation. However, the two women dared not absorb too much and planned to increase their cultivation by 10,000 to 20,000 years first.

"Whoosh..."

A month later, Shui Bing'er absorbed a large amount of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, and her soul power directly increased to level 98.

"Her soul power has increased way too fast!"

"Humans are so lucky. No matter how much their strength increases, they are never in danger, unlike us soul beasts, who have to suffer heavenly tribulations every 100,000 years of advancement..."

The Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor watched as Shui Bing'er leveled up from level 96 to 98 in just one month, and they were incredibly envious!

"Xiao Chen, how much treasure is left?"

After her soul power reached level 98, Shui Bing'er felt extremely excited and wanted to continue to improve, but she was afraid that she wouldn't have enough Myriad Years of Profound Ice Marrow.

"There's about half left." Ye Liangchen checked and found that the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow was being consumed quite quickly.

"Sister, I estimate that after you absorb the remaining treasures, you might be able to level up by about half a level. After reaching level 98, the amount of soul power required is astronomical."

Shui Yue'er smiled mischievously. In the past month, in order to take care of Shui Bing'er, she had only absorbed a small amount of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, and her soul power had only increased by 0.2 levels.

"Never mind then, we'll take it slow later."

"Let's go back first."

Shui Bing'er realized that she had used up half of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow in just one month, which was a huge waste.

"Are you leaving?" Seeing that the three were about to leave, Xue Di and Bing Di were a little reluctant to part with them.

"Snow Empress! There are quite a few people on the continent who have obtained divine inheritances now... If other titled powerhouses come to the far north in the future, you must be careful."

Ye Liangchen didn't know if Tang San, Sword Douluo, and the others would come to the far north, so he reminded the Ice and Snow Emperors.

"Okay, we'll be careful."

Xue Di nodded. In this far north, apart from Ye Liangchen, who was a freak, no other level 99 powerhouse should be able to do anything to her.

"Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, come visit our Tianshui City sometime."

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er waved goodbye to the two ferocious beasts. Although they were not human, they were almost like human friends.

"We will go."

Snow Empress and Ice Empress nodded. The human world is so wonderful, we definitely want to go and see it if we have the chance.

Goodbye, both of you.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Then Ye Liangchen and the Shui Bing'er sisters soared into the sky and flew south.

"Snow Empress, they've left. It's still a little hard to get used to it."

"Hyotei, I remember at the beginning you weren't very welcoming to them."

"Snow Empress, stop talking..."

The two ferocious beasts watched Ye Liangchen and his companions disappear into the horizon, then pondered in their hearts that they should find an opportunity to go and have some fun in the human world.

……

This trip to the far north was very fruitful for Shui Bing'er. She finally raised her soul power to level 98 and once again felt like the eldest sister.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

After flying for an hour, Ye Liangchen and his two companions had left the glacier restricted area.

Meanwhile, deep within the frozen forest on the other side, an exceptionally beautiful woman emerged.

"I wonder if that brat and those two girls have returned yet? Let's go back and check."

"Whoosh..."

The beautiful woman walked along, muttering to herself, before soaring into the sky and flying away into the distance.

This woman is Shui Lanxin, Shui Bing'er's mother. She passed several tests by the Frost Goddess, and her soul ring combination changed to eight black and one red, and her soul power reached level 99.

After reaching the demigod level, Shui Lanxin finally understood what Ye Liangchen had said before: with the help of a god, even a pig could become an unparalleled powerhouse.

"Hey! Aren't those Bing'er and Yue'er? And Xiao Chen is here too."

At this moment, Shui Lanxin was eager to return home and quickly flew south. Suddenly, she saw a man and two women walking and laughing on the snow. Upon closer inspection, she realized that they were her three children.

"Whoosh...!"

"You three came out from the direction of the forbidden zone, could it be that you're going to search for the divine essence of the Ice God?"

Shui Lanxin swooped down and flew directly in front of Ye Liangchen and the other two.

"Aunt? Mother?"

Upon seeing this, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er rushed into Shui Lan's arms like fledgling geese returning to their nest, acting coquettishly.

"I've missed you so much, it's been years!" Shui Lanxin hugged the two little girls, feeling incredibly happy.

"Aunt Lan, we were just about to visit you! We didn't expect you to come out so soon."

Ye Liangchen sensed that Shui Lanxin's soul power had reached level 99, indicating that her divine test had gone very smoothly.

"Yes, I have completed the first seven tests. The eighth test is to master the Frost Goddess's divine skills and then complete the inheritance. Now my soul power has reached level 99."

"Whoosh..."

Shui Lanxin introduced her divine examination results and then showed off her eight black and one red soul ring combination.

"Mom, you've reached level 99 too! That's wonderful!"

Shui Bing'er was overjoyed to see that her mother had reached the level of a demigod.

"Auntie, eight black and one red spirit rings, not bad at all."

"But my sister and I have six black and three red spirit rings! My ninth spirit ring is also a million-year spirit ring."

Shui Yue'er looked at Shui Lanxin's eight black and one red soul ring combination, and then arrogantly showed off her own six black and three red soul rings.

"Mother, in the past month, we have obtained a large amount of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow in the far north, and through refining these treasures, my soul power has also increased from level 96 to level 98."

Shui Bing'er then introduced the opportunities the three of them encountered in the far north restricted area to her mother, and then demonstrated her own strength.

"You actually encountered such a powerful ferocious beast? No wonder the far north glacier region is known as a forbidden zone for humans."

"You even obtained the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow? Bing'er, you guys are truly lucky!"

Shui Lanxin reached out and rubbed Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er's heads. It was truly unbelievable that these two little girls' soul power was second only to hers.

"Moon, you're level 98 now, wanna have a match with me?"

Seeing the two girls' abnormally powerful soul ring combinations, Shui Lanxin wanted to test the strength of these two sisters, especially since Shui Yue'er had a golden million-year soul ring, she was even more eager to see it.

"Auntie, how could I compare to you! If you want to beat us up, just say so."

Shui Yue'er smiled sweetly. She was only level 98, not a monster like Ye Liangchen, but she couldn't beat a level 99 powerhouse.

"Moon, how could I bear to hit you?"

Shui Lanxin smiled sweetly, then hugged the two maids and kissed them again.

"Aunt Lan, did you get the artifact?"

Ye Liangchen asked out of curiosity, "The Frost Goddess is only a level two god, so she should also have divine artifacts."

"There were no divine artifacts. In fact, the place where the Frost Goddess inherited her legacy was very simple, with only an altar. The goddess used a projection to set up some combat tests for me..."

Shui Lanxin described the situation in the Frost Secret Realm, which was incomparable to the Sea God Temple that Ye Liangchen had mentioned, let alone any divine artifacts. It was estimated that the Frost Goddess herself did not have any in stock, so she was reluctant to give away any divine artifacts.

"So that's how it is! But thinking about it, it makes sense. The Sea God and the Angel God both became gods on Douluo Star, so they would have left behind their dojos."

Ye Liangchen knew that other gods, in their haste to find successors, only needed an altar to establish a place of inheritance, as they didn't need anything else.

"Let's go back first. We've been in the far north for over a month now. I'm sure Sister Zhuqing and the others have already overthrown the Dai family dynasty."

"Xiao Chen, keep up!"

Shui Bing'er held her mother's and sister's hands and walked happily forward.

"Oh, is Zhu Qing planning to launch a coup ahead of schedule?"

Upon hearing this, Shui Lanxin was stunned. She hadn't expected that the little girl really wanted to become the Star Luo Empress.

"With Xue Wu and Yu Hai Rou's help, there shouldn't be any major problems..."

Along the way, Shui Yue'er chattered away, introducing the strengths of the other girls in the Tianshui Girls' Group to Shui Lanxin.

"These two girls are really lucky."

When Shui Lanxin heard that Ye Lingling and Yu Hairou had obtained divinely bestowed martial souls, she immediately felt that the methods of these gods were truly amazing.
