Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 284 The Myriad Years of Profound Ice Marrow, The Blooming Snow Emperor (4K)

A massive rift opened in the sky, revealing countless black stars within, creating an eerie contrast with the clear blue sky. Under the overwhelming sword power that seemed to shake the heavens and earth, space shattered like crystal.

"Heavens above, is this divine punishment...?"

The Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps was terrified and desperately tried to maintain the linked defensive soul guide shield.

"boom--"

Sword Might - Heaven and Earth in One Breath and Level 9 Fixed-Position Soul Guidance Cannonball Skybreaker, they respectively represent the ultimate level of Soul Master and the peak skills of Soul Master. The collision of the two powers instantly turned the entire area outside Sunrise City into a sea of ​​interwoven gold and blue.

Faced with the wrathful explosion, the linked defensive soul guide shield was as fragile as a piece of paper. With a piercing sound like tearing cloth, the soul guides of the Royal Dragon Soul Guide Corps coughed up a mouthful of blood, sharing the backlash from the shattering of the linked shield.

The dazzling sword light broke through the aftershocks and descended. Without the protection of the linked soul guide shield, dozens of level four and level five soul masters died instantly from headshots. Even a vice leader at the level of an eight-ring Soul Douluo was crushed by the sword intent of Heavenly Emperor attached to the breath of heaven and earth.

Xu Tianyuan roared, and layers of silver light shone from his body. He immediately activated his level nine soul guide shield and invincible shield!

"laugh--"

All the protective shields neatly split into two semicircles, and fine golden lines extended from between the eyebrows to the torso. Xu Tianyuan's tall body was split in two, turning into specks of golden light and dissipating into the world.

"Commander!"

Only the members of the Royal Dragon Soul Master Corps on the outskirts survived thanks to various soul guide shields. They then witnessed the tragic scene of Xu Tianyuan's demise and couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

A golden figure with six wings flashed before Xu Tianyuan's corpse, a starlight sapphire ring twirling between its fingers. Upon seeing this, the other surviving vice-commander's pupils contracted sharply, and he murmured:

"The captain's storage soul tool is finished, completely finished..."

The hostages of the three great empires escaped, the empire's plan to act cautiously was thwarted, Xu Tianyuan, the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps, died in battle, and the treasures accumulated by generations of leaders fell into the hands of the enemy... The deputy leader dared not imagine what a miserable fate awaited those of them who had survived after Xu Tianran learned of such a terrible news!

"Brothers, let's fight him!"

The deputy commander knew that going back would only mean death, so he might as well fight this culprit to the death!

Ling Bai put away Xu Tianyuan's storage soul tool, looked down at the group of fearless remnants of the Imperial Dragon army, and the eighth soul ring of the six-winged angel bloomed. The Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps suddenly felt a chill down their spines. The golden sun and black moon merged into one, light and darkness blended together, and a black and gold pillar of light swept across the battlefield, and chaos returned to nothingness!

……

Above the sky, the Bone Dragon King carried the Soul Masters of the three great empires toward the border, with the Sun Moon Empire on high alert along the way.

Although the Bone Dragon King does not possess Ling Bai's keen sky perception ability, it has the cultivation level of a Limit Douluo. Apart from the five Guardian Hands in their linked state and the level nine fixed-position soul guide cannon, the ordinary Sun Moon Soul Master Corps cannot threaten it.

The three great empires' soul masters, witnessing firsthand the rows of chilling, menacing soul-guided cannons on the ground, instinctively gasped. Had it not been for the Bone Dragon King protecting them as they fled, even if they had managed to escape the water prison, they would have undoubtedly been engulfed by the terrifying firepower of the Sun and Moon soul-guided weapons.

"Mom, why isn't he back yet!"

Nan Qiuqiu kept glancing back into the distance, her pretty face revealing deep anxiety: "The Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps has many level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannons, but Saint Evil Douluo is all alone..."

"Good people are always blessed." Nan Shuishui sighed. "What we need to do is trust in Saint Evil Douluo and try not to hold him back."

Upon hearing this, Nan Qiuqiu seemed to soften instantly, hugging her mother tightly, her pearly teeth digging into her red lips, and whispering, "I'm about the same age as Saint Evil Douluo, but our abilities are worlds apart. I couldn't even help him with the slightest thing; on the way here, he just carried me around like a little chick..."

"Seeing my own weakness makes me realize I need to work even harder to improve myself."

A clear, cheerful voice rang out, and Nan Qiuqiu suddenly turned her head. A figure had suddenly appeared on the Bone Dragon King's head. Sunlight streamed in, and he stood against the light, making it difficult for Nan Qiuqiu to see his expression until the excited shouts of the others brought her back to her senses.

"Saint Evil Douluo!"

When Ling Bai returned safely, the Soul Masters of the three great empires were overjoyed. After a few seconds of stunned silence, Nan Qiuqiu finally smiled with relief, her smile tinged with tears.

Seeing this, Nan Shuishui shook her head with a wry smile. One should not meet someone too stunning when young. Her daughter is just beginning to fall in love, but all her youthful passion is destined to be wasted.

Ling Bai stood atop the dragon's head, slashing down the Sun Moon Empire's prized high-altitude detection soul guide across ten miles, guiding the Bone Dragon King's flight path.

The combat power of the Limit Douluo is no joke. The Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps has been completely wiped out. Ling Bai does not take the overall strength of the Imperial Dragon seriously. He is only wary of Xu Tianyuan detonating twenty level-nine fixed-position soul guide shells at the same time to achieve a coexistence with heaven and earth.

If he detonates all the level-nine fixed-position soul-guided shells, Xu Tianyuan will be the first to be hit and will surely die. If there is any chance of survival, Xu Tianyuan will not choose this desperate path. By the time he tries to activate it again, it will be too late.

With Ling Bai's guidance, the journey became increasingly smooth. At the border of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the newly repaired Soul Guidance Array suffered another blow. Ling Bai unleashed a Holy Light Heavenly Flame, and the Bone Dragon King countered with a single breath of Wind and Fire, resulting in heavy losses for the Sun Moon Empire's border defenses.

Stepping into the Heavenly Soul Empire, the tension in their hearts instantly eased. Their homeland was so beautiful that the Soul Masters of the three great empires, who had been tormented for months, were moved to tears. Some were even so excited that they knelt down and kissed the earth.

The rescue plan came to a successful conclusion, and the group parted ways. Before departing, the Soul Masters of the three great empires bowed deeply to Ling Bai one after another, expressing their gratitude:

"We will forever remember your kindness. If you ever need anything, the Proud Sword Sect is ready to serve you!"

"The Holy Evil Douluo is infinitely compassionate and merciful; the Heavenly Armor Sect will certainly follow the Holy Evil Douluo as its foremost guide!"

"Me too!"

"We are all Soul Masters from Douluo Continent. The Sun Moon Empire is our common enemy, and everything we do is our duty."

You have all endured hardships and are now weak and frail. Please return to your sect immediately to recuperate. We will meet again!

Ling Bai clasped his hands in a fist salute, perfectly embodying the image of a fine young man dedicated to his country and its people.

These favors from sects and academies are already incurred; there's no need to rush to cash them in. First, establish a righteous image!

"Holy Evil Douluo, see you later!"

Everyone thanked him profusely and said goodbye. Ling Bai gained a lot of goodwill. This scene would be forever etched in their hearts, and they would be grateful for the kindness of the Holy Evil Douluo for the rest of their lives.

As agreed, Ling Bai went to Dragon City with the mother and daughter from the Earth Dragon Gate. Nan Shuishui had no objections whatsoever; the life-saving grace was greater than heaven, and the Earth Dragon Gate had not figured out a way to mine the treasure for thousands of years, thus guarding the treasure mountain in vain. In fact, Ling Bai would not suffer any loss from the transfer of the secret place.

Back at the Earth Dragon Gate, Nan Shuishui led the two to a well in the backyard of the sect. As they got closer to the well, the Ice and Snow Maiden's left arm soul bone suddenly became excited, and the Snow Empress in her spiritual sea also had her beautiful eyes light up. There really was something in this well that attracted her.

Nan Shuishui smiled and said, "Holy Evil Douluo, the secret place of the Earth Dragon Gate is this cold spring. The spring water contains abundant spiritual energy, which has a nourishing effect on soul masters."

Beneath the icy spring lies another cave containing many ice-attribute ores; however, the cave's temperature is too low for even a Title Douluo to remain for long. The Holy Evil Douluo's six-winged angel possesses ultimate fire, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Ling Bai nodded and handed a piece of soul bone to Nan Shuishui:

"I have a great use for this place. I will take everything from under the spring. This head bone comes from a 100,000-year-old cyclops. Consider it a small gift from me."

A soul bone that's been around for 100,000 years!

The mother and daughter swallowed hard. They had never seen a 100,000-year-old soul bone before, let alone a head soul bone with a spiritual attribute!

Ling Bai remained calm. After plundering the Holy Spirit Cult, the Body Sect, and the sea, he possessed countless 100,000-year-old soul bones. The Cyclops skull was a gift from Zhongli Wu after he cured the Bone Dragon King's warm-up problem. He didn't feel any remorse giving away other people's things.

Nan Shuishui held the 100,000-year-old Cyclops skull in her hands for a long time, then pushed it back to Ling Bai and said earnestly:

"Holy Evil Douluo, this soul bone is far too precious for the Earth Dragon Sect; we are not qualified to accept it. If you feel bad about it, I plan to have Qiuqiu join the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Could you perhaps give her a position as an outer disciple?"

Nan Qiuqiu was slightly taken aback. Her mother hadn't mentioned joining the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to her!

"The annihilation attribute is extremely rare. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School welcomes Miss Nan to join us at any time. Let this soul bone be a testament to the friendship between our two schools."

After saying that, Ling Bai plunged into the deep well. The value of a 100,000-year-old soul bone was far less than that of the 10,000-year-old Xuanbing Marrow. He obtained the 10,000-year-old Xuanbing Marrow, and the Earth Dragon Gate possessed the 100,000-year-old soul bone to pass on to their descendants. It was a mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation.

At the well, Nan Shuishui saw her daughter staring intently at the well and immediately became furious, slapping her head hard.

Nan Qiuqiu cried out in pain, clutching her head and complaining, "Mom, what are you doing!"

"Keep your little schemes to yourself. Your mother has been observing Saint Evil Douluo all along, and he hasn't even given you a second glance. Give up now to avoid getting hurt."

"Who wouldn't like someone who's both handsome and good at fighting? Your daughter has big breasts, a slim waist, long legs, and a pretty face; she'd be more than qualified to be a concubine..."

Nan Qiuqiu pouted, seeing her mother about to strike, and quickly shrank back, saying, "Don't hit me, don't hit me! I'm childhood sweethearts with the young lady of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. I'll behave myself and do whatever Saint Evil Douluo tells me to do!"

"That's more like it," Nan Shuishui said with satisfaction. "Every era has its leaders, and the great era of contention is an opportunity for all the major powers to reshuffle the deck."

Qiuqiu, we've finally managed to get on the good side with the Holy Evil Douluo! Mom managed to secure you a chance to enter the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, you must make the most of it!

"Yes, yes, I promise I won't fail you!"

Upon entering the well, a chilling aura surged forth. Ling Bai dove downwards and found a stone door.

Behind the stone gate is the cave that Nan Shuishui mentioned, composed of various crystals, shimmering with light and crystal clear, as if one were in a fairyland.

Inside the cave are many strange ice pillars, forty-five in total, crisscrossing each other, pure white as jade, with liquid flowing faintly through them, releasing waves of terrifying cold.

"Ten Thousand Years of Profound Ice Marrow!"

Snow Empress burst out of the Sea of ​​Spirit, staring blankly at everything around her. The cold currents within the cave converged on her, as if guarding their sovereign.

"It really is...it really is the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow, you're not lying to me..."

The Snow Emperor gently stroked the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, her gaze unusually complex. If the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave in the far north had not been drained by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the four ferocious beasts of the far north could have easily survived the Heavenly Tribulation.

At this moment, she found herself standing in a cave filled with ancient ice, where she could take whatever she wanted from the ancient ice marrow.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Ling Bai's eyes were full of smiles. "The Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow is the ultimate ice treasure. The Ice and Snow Maiden is the spirit of the far north, the purest and ultimate snow. Using the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow as material, I can reshape your body and allow you to move freely independently of my spiritual sea."

"Your thinking is definitely not that simple; there's something else going on!"

Snow Empress snorted coldly, floated to the front of a ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow, grabbed a ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow in each hand, and absorbed rings of white light into her body.

Ling Bai sensed that the Snow Emperor's soul and the Ten Thousand Years of Profound Ice Marrow were gradually merging, becoming a new life form with ice attribute energy as its body.

"Bone Dragon King, get to work."

The Mysterious Ice Cave also contains the rare metal Ice Extreme Crystal. Because the temperature here is close to absolute zero, other undead creatures are not capable of mining it, and only the Bone Dragon King can be exploited.

As time passed, the Snow Empress solidified, emanating an extremely powerful aura of ice. Streamers of snow-white ribbons appeared over her white gauze dress, accentuating her slender and exquisitely beautiful figure.

"It's really not easy. Thirty strands of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, two-thirds of the energy of the entire Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave, are needed to exchange for a flesh and blood body," Ling Bai said quietly.

"Regret it?"

Snow Empress descended from the sky, her stunningly beautiful face serene and untouched by worldly dust, her sky-blue eyes shimmering with a frost-like luster.

"No, the forty-five strands of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow belong only to you."

Ling Bai raised his left hand slightly, and deep blue light patterns rippled and changed, converging into strange snowflake-shaped runes.

Fifteen strands of ancient, mysterious ice marrow rose like ice flowers, shrinking in the air to transform into an ice flower bracelet. Ling Bai took one of her soft hands in his; the Snow Empress's hand was smooth and cool, as pure and flawless as soft snow. Ling Bai personally wrapped the bracelet around the Snow Empress's fair wrist.

Looking at the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow Bracelet, the Snow Emperor smiled. Her smile was beautiful. She always had a cold demeanor, giving people a feeling that strangers should not approach her. But when a smile appeared on her exquisite face, it was truly breathtaking and brought warmth to the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Cave.

All the other women had immortal herbs/soul rings/soul bones, but Xue Di had lost her original soul beast form, so Ling Bai had never given her anything. This time, he made up for it all.

"Bing'er, Xiaobai, and Atai, fifteen strands of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow are enough for the three of them to survive the imminent calamity of heaven and earth."

The Snow Empress loved this bracelet very much, but the three ferocious beasts of the far north needed the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, so she could only possess it temporarily.

"Ahem, the Ice Bear King has agreed to the name change; it's now called Little Fatty."

Ling Bai corrected Xue Di, "Little Bai is right here!"

"That person has been working honestly for over 200,000 newbies, and is older than even the angels. Who do you think you are, changing my child's name?"

Xue Di rolled her eyes playfully, a mischievous smirk playing on her lips. Ling Bai grabbed her hand and pulled her beautiful body into his arms. Their noses were only a millimeter apart, and their warm breaths filled the air, making it seem sweeter.

"Tell me, what is my identity?"

Golden pupils met Xue Di's eyes, carrying warm emotions. She slowly closed her clear, bright eyes, which were like autumn water, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

The woman's closed eyes and silence were an encouragement. A burning kiss was placed on her lips. When she opened her eyes again, Xue Di's expression had become dreamy. She whispered in Ling Bai's ear:

"Love me, now."
