From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 652

On the edge of the white mountain range, a plump worm, five or six meters long, lay comfortably on the ice and snow. Humans in cotton-padded coats would occasionally come over and kick it, but it didn't care at all. As long as those humans were willing to give it food, it was the most generous ice silkworm in the world.

"Father, the speed of the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan is incredible! They run straight ahead, and the ice layer spreads continuously under their feet. If it weren't for Lord Ice Scorpion King calling them back in time, we young people might have lost track of them." Next to the Great Ice Silkworm, a young man, panting and holding a slightly glowing crystal, walked up to a burly man with white hair.

"Have some hot soup." The burly, white-haired man, dressed in extremely thick clothes, handed a special cup to the young man: "Your mother made this for you. I heard it was a gift from the Mirror Beast. Rumor has it that even the God of Cookery loved it."

"Haha, that's great!" The young man immediately took the cup. In the glow of the luminous crystal in his hand, the surrounding temperature was not inhuman.

"But Father, is it really possible for us to open up the Sun and Moon Continent? I wonder what it's like there. I've only heard you describe it in such splendid terms, but I've never seen it with my own eyes," the young man said casually as he sipped his hot soup. He had to drink it quickly, or it would get cold.

"Hehe. Once you've seen it, you'll naturally know how magnificent it is. It's a pity you haven't seen the former Soto city-state. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to imagine that a city from fifty years ago was even more prosperous than the most glorious Star Luo City today." The white-haired strong man leaned against the Ice Silkworm, looked up at the end of the glacier, in the direction of the Sun and Moon Continent, and countless memories welled up in his eyes.

The Technological Federation could not ultimately take everyone with it. Some were left behind, and this white-haired father was one of those left behind. However, he was lucky because he had actually been to the city-state of Soto and almost left by ship. But he was also unlucky because they stood on the mainland port and watched as the steel monster representing the Technological Federation's highest maritime technological achievement was buried forever in the sea in the wrath of the gods.

Although the far north is extremely unsuitable for human habitation, many people who were desperate and unwilling to submit to the sea god were taken in by the master of the far north in their most hopeless moment.

As a result, nearly a million people ventured north into the far north, a region known as a human wasteland where temperatures are often tens of degrees below zero. They tenaciously took root and gradually spread their influence.

"Our Ice and Snow Empire's most powerful Fire Research Institute actually started as just a very small studio under the Federation."

"Huh? The Minghuo Research Institute, which claims to be the fire of the gods, is just a small workshop?" The young man was shocked. In his understanding of the world, the Minghuo Research Institute of the Ice and Snow Empire was the top-tier soul guidance research institution in the Douluo Continent! (And that's in contrast to the Star Luo Empire and the Heaven Dou Empire!)

The glowing crystal he's holding is one of the core achievements of the Minghuo Research Institute, enabling people to survive in harsh environments with temperatures tens of degrees below zero!

"Heh, you're shocked, aren't you? Do you know about the food converter? That soul tool that can feed millions of us in this godforsaken place was actually left to us by the Federation before they left. Without the food converter, with the handful of soul masters here who can be counted on one hand to supply us, we would have starved to death long ago."

The white-haired, burly man chuckled. He quite enjoyed telling the younger generation about his glorious past, even if he hadn't developed those things, he had at least seen them.

"I heard that the development of this food converter is somewhat related to that culinary master. Apparently, it was because of him that the Federation figured out the conversion between energy and food soul skills, allowing us to eat soul power without worrying about starving. Even the soul beasts are now able to coexist peacefully thanks to this technology."

Although this technology was initially only a semi-finished product with low energy conversion efficiency and a taste worse than excrement, it only strengthened the resolve of these unruly "troublemakers," who preferred to "eat excrement" rather than remain under the rule of the sea god.

Fortunately, thanks to the relentless and tireless research efforts of the Minghuo Research Institute, the Ice and Snow Empire finally elevated the half-finished technology of 'energy conversion' to a level of sophistication uncommon on this continent. What they didn't even know was that, in terms of food converter technology alone, they might be even more advanced than the force across the Ice Sea.

"Sigh, you old man have gotten me all fired up again." The young man rolled his eyes at the white-haired strong man next to him helplessly. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly and subconsciously looked at the ice silkworm next to him. Just then, the ice silkworm, whose realm was as high as the Black Realm, also raised its somewhat confused little eyes.

"Is there any movement?" Ice Silkworm's voice softly echoed in their minds.

Zhao Ming, the vigilant captain of the Ice and Snow Empire's "White Great Wall" project, subconsciously looked at his father, then immediately said to Ice Silkworm, "Brother Silkworm, could you lend me your spiritual power?"

lb!

The nine-layered soul ring exploded directly behind Zhao Ming, and a phantom of a golden-striped white bear appeared behind him!

Behind him, nine layers of spirit rings—purple, black, black, black, black, red, red, red—bloomed a dazzling and extremely oppressive divine wheel!

lb!

The Ninefold Divine Wheel trembled violently, and a terrifying sound wave spread outwards to all directions!

At the same time, the ice silkworm began to emit a dense light, and finally even transformed into a white light, directly merging with Zhao Ming, who had transformed into a golden-striped white bear!

Martial Soul Fusion?!

A fusion of a soul beast and a soul master's martial soul?!

The unique ecology of the Ice and Snow Empire has allowed its people to develop their own technology over the past few decades, based on some semi-finished technologies left behind by the Technological Federation.

hum!

Emerging from the dazzling white pillar of light, a giant white bear with even more golden markings appeared. A glint of light flashed in the majestic eyes of the golden-striped white bear, and a terrifying mental wave swept violently down to the seabed below!

Then, an even colder mental wave resounded in the minds of the surrounding Soul Masters and Soul Beasts, whose expressions were still filled with astonishment and uncertainty: "Wasn't the North Sea closed off?! How come there are still mermaids appearing?! Who the hell let them in?!"

"Quickly inform the Ice Scorpion King, I'll stop him!" Before he could finish speaking, the Golden-striped White Bear jumped off the white mountain range and fell into the icy seawater like a cannonball!

The white-haired, burly man on the white mountain watched his son leave with a sense of relief, then suddenly looked up at the sky and subconsciously rubbed his eyes.

"Just now... I think there was a dark shadow, right?"
