From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 559 Perfect Vessel: God-Level Soul Bead!

As the hundredth bolt of destructive black lightning dissipated, Chen Hong, his entire body charred black, slowly extended his palm from beneath the shattered ice.

Then, with a forceful wave of his hand, he threw all the surrounding ice shards twice. Afterward, he slowly pulled out his body, which was beginning to recover. Looking at the slowly dissipating cataclysmic destruction in the sky, Chen Hong was still a little dazed.

"That's it...? It's over?"

Chen Hong thought that the 700,000-year heavenly tribulation was truly endless, but he didn't expect that there would be a hundred, and the power of the last one was extremely terrifying, directly approaching the first purple-gold destructive divine lightning of the deep sea demon whale king's million-year heavenly tribulation.

Fortunately, Chen Hong had withstood the Purple Gold Destruction Divine Lightning beforehand, so the final, suddenly intensified, black lightning of destruction did not pose much of a threat to him.

The ultimate life force circulated within Chen Hong's body, and his body, destroyed by the heavenly tribulation, was constantly being reborn, thus giving birth to an even stronger and more resilient physique.

Buzz.

After recovering from his injuries, Chen Hong's divine wheel on his back turned slightly, and two beams of light separated from his body, revealing Xue Di and Ye Lingling to be by his side.

"It's over." Snow Emperor looked up with lingering fear at the slowly dissipating 700,000-year Heavenly Tribulation, then looked down at the far north, which had been shattered into a fragmented ice field by the Heavenly Tribulation of Destruction, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"It should be over." Ye Lingling first glanced at Chen Hong, who was fiddling with two different colored soul beads in his hand. Seeing that apart from his mind, his body was fine, she looked at the gradually clearing snowy sky and sighed.

The Heavenly Tribulation of Snow Empress's ascension to godhood was extremely beneficial to both Chen Hong and Ye Lingling. Chen Hong, needless to say, benefited greatly from the destructive power of the Heavenly Tribulation's lightning and destructive force, along with Ye Lingling's life force. This directly honed Chen Hong's physical cultivation from level 97 to level 99 after several Heavenly Tribulations—the level of a peak Douluo. Now, Chen Hong, relying solely on his physical strength, can directly confront soul beasts that are four or five hundred thousand years old.

Although Ye Lingling's physical realm had not broken through the limits of mortals, it brought her one step closer to breaking through the limits of mortals. In fact, she felt that she had touched the threshold of a divine body. However, the stimulation given to Ye Lingling by the 700,000-year-level destructive black lightning was still a little lacking, which prevented Ye Lingling from completing the final transformation.

"The seven hundred thousand years of destructive tribulation is still a bit lacking. Perhaps only the million-year purple-gold destructive divine lightning of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King can help me break through to the divine body?" Ye Lingling sensed her progress in the divine body and then murmured softly.

However, her soul power level increased several levels under the Heavenly Tribulation Hammer, and it is now at level seventy-nine. This speed is already quite fast, after all, she neither absorbed a soul ring nor a soul bone, and she didn't even harvest life power in order to allow the other immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Immortal Valley to grow stronger.

However, for Ye Lingling, Ice and Fire Immortal Valley is a large gift pack of experience that can be continuously accumulated. When the experience inside starts to overflow, Ye Lingling can harvest it sustainably, which can also make up for her lack of soul power in soul rings and soul bones.

"Is the intensity of a 700,000-year Heavenly Tribulation not enough?" Hearing Ye Lingling say this, Chen Hong, who was playing with the two soul beads in his hand that had no ability to resist, raised his head slightly, looked at Ye Lingling, thought for a moment, and then said, "In that case, forget it. The intensity of a 700,000-year Heavenly Tribulation has reached its limit for me. These two soul beads still contain a little bit of the last remnant soul. It will take a higher intensity Heavenly Tribulation to clear it."

"But it's much better now. Two dragon souls won't come out to bite me anymore. I've said it before, we don't need the approval of these old dragon clans." Chen Hong tossed two dragon king soul beads, each the size of an infant's fist, to Ye Lingling, who caught them instinctively.

The Dragon King Soul Beads, which would normally have fiercely resisted, looked like two ordinary but beautiful glass balls in Ye Lingling's hands. The icy blue Soul Beads felt cool to the touch, showing no sign of the terrifying extreme ice elemental power they contained. The crimson Soul Beads felt warm to the touch, which was quite useful in the environment of the far north, and holding them in her palms felt like using them as hand warmers.

If Chen Hong hadn't told anyone, the outside world would never have known that these two beautiful glass balls were actually the soul beads of the two Dragon Kings.

After being repeatedly baptized by the Heavenly Tribulation of Destruction, the Ice and Fire Dragon Soul successfully attained enlightenment, its inner self was sublimated, and it understood the sins of its previous life, thus achieving self-redemption. Of course, some stubborn ailments remained within the Soul Orb, requiring even stronger power of redemption to completely purify the Ice and Fire Dragon Soul's final consciousness.

After all, how could the Ice and Fire Soul Pearl, which had perished countless millennia ago, possibly withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, which is a force of heaven and earth?

"You can use them yourself. I don't think I need them." Ye Lingling carefully examined the two beautiful soul beads that had been annihilated by dragon might in her hand, and finally returned them to Chen Hong.

"Although there's no need to absorb the soul bone, we still need to keep these god-level soul beads. After all, the million-year tribulation of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is too unpredictable. Refining these two little things further can serve as a safeguard. That way, even if the million-year tribulation goes wrong and becomes too intense, annihilating our physical bodies in one go, we can still use the soul beads as a vessel to reshape our bodies."

Chen Hong temporarily integrated the two Soul Beads into his body through Martial Soul Fusion. The two Soul Beads transformed into two red and blue eyeshadows that appeared at the corners of Chen Hong's eyes, adding a touch of otherworldly divine charm to Chen Hong's handsome face.

The Ice and Fire Soul Beads have been utterly destroyed by Chen Hong, leaving them with no will to resist. Chen Hong can do whatever he wants with them. He could even absorb them as soul bones, but due to the lingering effects of their remaining souls, he cannot use the power of the Ice and Fire Soul Beads. So even if he were to fuse and absorb them, it would be like absorbing nothing at all.

However, Chen Hong's Creator Mode and [True Self] can play another trick. To outsiders, it seems that Chen Hong has absorbed the Ice and Fire Soul Orb. But in reality, Chen Hong can take the Ice and Fire Soul Orb out of his body at any time.

In other words, if Chen Hong absorbs the soul bone normally, he can take it out at will.

At first, Chen Hong couldn't absorb the Ice and Fire Soul Pearl into his body, but now it's much better. The Dragon Soul has been completely destroyed by several Heavenly Tribulations of Destruction.

Next, if Chen Hong can use the million-year tribulation to eliminate the last remnants of the soul beads, then these two soul beads can become...

A perfect vehicle.
