Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 88 Bone-Transforming Divine Dragon, Snow Empress's Re-cultivation, Ninth-Level Soul Master and Vajra Douluo (Part 2)

"Slap in the face..."

After reading the resentful message from Bone Douluo Gu Rong, Ling Bai sighed:

"I'm probably sick. I just can't hold on any longer. The Seven Kill Sword Technique and the Bone Transformation Dragon have two great successors. One is me, and the other is also me..."

Having taken something, one should always fulfill the other person's wish. Ling Bai raised his right hand and placed it against his cheek, then slapped his left hand on top of his right hand with a crisp slap, the sound echoing in the small room.

"Senior Bone Douluo, your successor has defeated Senior Sword Douluo's successor. Thank you for your gift, Senior."

After making a small joke to Bone Douluo, Ling Bai suppressed his smile, bowed deeply, took the Bone Transformation Dragon, and turned to leave. With his current abilities, he was far from being able to control those three Title Douluo-level bone dragons. Cultivating and condensing the Bone Transformation Dragon technique, which Bone Douluo had learned throughout his life, would surely solve his immediate problem.

"Um?"

Beneath the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengya looked puzzled. After opening the Heavenly Warehouse, the sect leader's soul would establish a spiritual connection with it, constantly sensing the movement of each treasure. A second ago, she discovered that the Bone-Transforming Divine Dragon had been taken away.

"What does Little White want it to do?"

Ning Fengya was completely baffled. The reason she used the Seven Kill Sword Technique last time was because the Angelic Holy Sword was compatible with the sword technique. The Bone Transformation Divine Dragon was only for bone dragons, and it seemed to have nothing to do with Ling Bai's two martial souls.

"Alright, alright, this kid's hiding another secret."

After all, she had watched Ling Bai grow up, and Ning Fengya was very familiar with Ling Bai's personality. She absolutely did not believe that he was talking nonsense. He must have a way to get or had already gotten the Bone Dragon!

Just then, Ling Bai slowly walked out of the Heavenly Warehouse and saw Ning Fengya, whose lips were slightly upturned and whose face clearly showed that there was only one truth. He then spoke:

"Aunt Ya, I've got it sorted out."

"it is good."

Ning Fengya closed the spatial gate of the Heavenly Warehouse, coughed lightly, and asked Ling Bai:

"Little White, the far north is extremely dangerous. There are soul beasts whose average strength surpasses that of the Star Dou Great Forest, a harsh environment of ice and snow, and the mysteriously elusive Calamity Snow Demons... This surveillance mission truly lives up to its red-level name. Let Xie Qin accompany you."

"Fengya, don't you want me anymore?"

Suddenly, a head popped out of the shadows, its eyes blurry with tears, and its voice mournful and pitiful.

Ning Fengya clenched her fists, veins bulging on her smooth forehead, and gritted her teeth, saying:

"Get back home before I lose my temper!"

"Okay, sis."

Shadow Dragon Douluo Xie Qin instantly obeyed, shrinking his head back even faster than he could stick it out.

Ling Bai was both amused and exasperated. Shadow Dragon Douluo Xie Qin always liked to jump out and cause trouble. He couldn't stand not being scolded. He was just like a middle school boy trying to attract the attention of a girl he had a crush on by secretly pulling her ponytail. He was also a straight man who wouldn't even get a chance to marry Ning Fengya three times!

"No need, Aunt Ya, I'll go by myself. You and Uncle Xie can't help me forever."

"Okay, I've prepared some things for you to deal with the harsh environment in the far north."

Ning Fengya handed Ling Bai a storage soul tool, which Ling Bai accepted, thanked her, and immediately set off.

Even without traveling at full speed, Ling Bai arrived in Dragon City in just one and a half days, thanks to the speed of a six-winged angel. Looking into the distance, he could vaguely see the outline of a majestic and massive city, which looked even more awe-inspiring under the brilliant lights.

Dragon City is the closest human city to the far north. Soul Masters who venture into the far north to hunt soul beasts will resupply here, which has gradually built the reputation of this first city in the northern part of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

With her enchanting appearance mimicking the black hair and black eyes of the evil spirit master Ning Bai, Ling Bai, wearing a coat made from the fur of a ten-thousand-year-old Flame Lion King, successfully passed through the Dragon City guards.

"Aunt Ya is so thoughtful..."

Inside the storage soul tool was a complete set of thick clothes from a ten-thousand-year-old fire-type soul beast. They were specially dyed white to blend in with the extreme northern environment. After Ling Bai put them on, he felt a warm sensation emanating from his body. The low temperature of Dragon City, which was near the extreme north, did not affect him at all.

The Snow Demon, a calamity that has plagued the area for 30,000 years, has appeared in villages near Dragon City, wantonly destroying farmland and houses, causing immense suffering to the villagers. Ling Bai plans to find an inn to rest for the night and then go to the affected villages to investigate the situation the next day.

Ling Bai found a decent restaurant, booked a room, ordered food in one go, and then sat down to wait to enjoy the local delicacies of Longcheng.

A dozen or so young men and women, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, were gathered across two tables. The most prominent were a girl with long pink hair and a young man with short blue-purple hair. The former was slamming her hand on the table and shouting at the latter:

"Hey, Yu Tianlong, have you heard about the recent trouble caused by the Calamity Snow Demon?"

"Um."

"I, Nan Qiuqiu, went out of the city alone yesterday to stake out the Calamity Snow Demon, and I actually ran into it! I immediately rushed up and fought it for three hundred rounds, the battle was so fierce it was dark and the sun and moon were dimmed!"

"And what was the result?" Yu Tianlong asked curiously.

Nan Qiuqiu raised her delicate chin high and said proudly, "It didn't hurt a single hair on my head. I escaped back to Dragon City unscathed!"

Yu Tianlong pondered for a moment, then tentatively said, "I understand the logic, but the battle seems to be one-sided..."

"What nonsense! What kind of talk is this!"

Nan Qiuqiu's face darkened, but she stubbornly retorted, "The Calamity Snow Demon is a variant of the Titan Snow Demon. Its 30,000 years of cultivation far surpasses my level as a Soul Master. I'm already incredibly brave to have escaped. You would have been kneeling before it!"

As she spoke, she subtly winked at her fellow disciples, who acknowledged and began to support their young master, Nan Qiuqiu.

"Sister Qiuqiu is so powerful and domineering!"

"Sister Qiuqiu is invincible!"

"Number One in Dragon City, Earth Dragon Gate!"

Yu Tianlong smiled wryly: "You invited me to dinner just to brag about escaping from the clutches of the Calamity Snow Demon?"

"Hehehe, accept your fate, Jade Heavenly Dragon!" Nan Qiuqiu, hands on her hips, chuckled wickedly. "The era of the Heavenly Dragon Sect suppressing the Earthly Dragon Sect is over. The era of the Earthly Dragons rising up to become masters has arrived!"

"Lady, keep your voice down!!!"

Noticing the strange looks he was being given, Yu Tianlong dug his toes out of his mouth. He desperately wanted to go back an hour and slap himself hard. Why did he have to agree to go out to dinner with Nan Qiuqiu? Otherwise, he wouldn't be dead now.

In fact, Yu Tianlong misunderstood. Tianlongmen and Dilongmen had never done anything to bully the weak. In fact, they often helped the villagers solve their problems. The two sects had an excellent reputation in Longcheng. The guests in the restaurant only had good-natured teasing in their eyes.

Yu Tianlong couldn't stay a moment longer and said rapidly, "That Calamity Snow Demon attacked Moonlight Village today, and my father personally dealt with it, severely injuring it. The Calamity Snow Demon narrowly escaped with its life and fled back to the core area of ​​the far north, where it will likely recuperate and lie dormant for many years."

"What?"

Nan Qiuqiu looked shocked. They had lost. The Earth Dragon Gate had lost completely!

At the same time, Ling Bai's hand, which was picking up food, paused slightly. It had run away! The Calamity Snow Demon had actually run away!

The two were heartbroken; one wore it on his face, the other kept it to himself.

"The mission is to capture or kill the Calamity Snow Demon alive; it seems we'll have to pursue it all the way to the far north core area..."

Ling Bai initially planned to wait for the Calamity Snow Demon in the village where it often caused trouble, but the plan changed and he went deep into the far north!

Early the next morning, Ling Bai left Dragon City alone, heading straight for the far north against the icy, biting wind.

It's currently winter, making it highly unsuitable to venture into the far north. The environment there has become even harsher, with temperatures dropping even lower than before. Some spirit beasts living in the far north, lacking food, will venture out of the core area to wander into the outer regions, much like the Calamity Snow Demon, greatly increasing the probability of encountering powerful spirit beasts. Unless one's own or one's team possesses sufficiently powerful spirit masters, it's unlikely that anyone would rashly set foot in the far north.

"Summoning the Spider".

Switching to his second martial soul, the Death Prison Spider Emperor, Ling Bai summoned thousands of small demonic spiders. The area of ​​the far north was even more vast than the Star Dou Great Forest. Because the far north was bitterly cold and barren, it was sparsely populated with animals. However, it would take Ling Bai a long time to find it by himself. Sending the demonic spiders to search would save time and effort.

"Find a giant-shaped soul beast that is severely injured, has a weak ice attribute, and exudes an aura of disaster."

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

The moment the spiders emerged, they were jolted by the freezing winds and snow of the far north. After a few seconds of adjusting to the environment, they obeyed their orders and scattered in all directions, the tiny, purplish-black spiders hiding in the thick ice and snow.

Using the Spider King's senses to avoid the soul beasts, Ling Bai plunged straight into the heart of the far north. Before long, he saw streaks of brilliant, dark green light flashing in the air, radiating a beautiful and dazzling brilliance. Ignoring the extreme climate, it was truly a beautiful paradise on earth.

"The unique polar night environment of the far northern core area..."

Ling Bai was on high alert, his Spider King Sensing at full power. The most terrifying aspect of the Far North was its overall strength, especially the number of 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the core area. Due to the harsh environment and the uniform attributes of the soul beasts, few soul masters ventured deep into the Far North to hunt them. Therefore, as long as the Far North soul beast species was powerful, they could generally cultivate to 100,000 years old without difficulty.

"The Realm of the Dead".

The spiderweb pattern flickered, and a layer of purplish-black film quietly adhered to Ling Bai's body. The extremely low temperature in the core area of ​​the far north was not something that the fur of the ten-thousand-year-old Flame Lion King could withstand. He had no choice but to release the Death Realm, the innate domain of the Death Prison Spider Emperor, to kill nearby ice elements with the help of extreme death and maintain his body temperature.

When hungry, he ate hard cornbread; when thirsty, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of snow. After several hours, just as Ling Bai was preparing to build an igloo to rest, the demon spider gave off an excited signal.

The gaze shifted to the Demon Spider, and sure enough, a colossal creature over fifty meters tall appeared, with a blue face and fangs, its ugly features bearing a slight resemblance to humans upon closer inspection. Unlike the Titan Snow Demon's snow-white fur, the Calamity Snow Demon was pure black, exuding an aura of disaster and misfortune. Legend has it that those who slay the Calamity Snow Demon are cursed, becoming plagued by misfortune and endless calamities.

At this moment, the Calamity Snow Demon lay on the ice and snow, its entire body covered with charred marks from lightning, its flesh torn open in a pitiful state. Fortunately, the bleeding was successfully stopped by the ultra-low temperature of the far north core area, barely saving its life.

Suddenly, the Calamity Snow Demon scrambled to its feet. It possessed a special soul skill called Calamity Foresight, which allowed it to sense an impending life-threatening crisis. The activation of Calamity Foresight meant its death was imminent!

The Calamity Snow Demon refused to sit and wait for its death. Enduring the pain, it took off running. Its huge body, fifty meters tall, combined with its powerful legs, covered a hundred meters with each stride. It ran at full speed for a full hour towards the center of the far north core area. The Calamity Snow Demon felt safe and sat down in relief.

"Crunch!"

"Huh?"

It seemed to have sat on something, and the next second after it lifted its rear, a loud bang resounded, and a blood-red mushroom cloud appeared in the far north.

The Calamity Snow Demon was blasted to pieces, its mangled head rolling right at Ling Bai's feet. Ling Bai collected it and brought it to Shrek Academy to report. Gazing at the metallic storm hidden within the blood-red mushroom cloud, he asked in bewilderment:

"Who's so talented as to set up a soul-guided trap in the far north? Judging by its power, this thing is at least level seven. Today's a good day, easy completion of the red-level surveillance mission..."

Immediately afterwards, Ling Bai suddenly looked up at the distant sky where the gale was raging. Under the dazzling, dark green aurora sky, there was a woman who looked like a human suspended there!

"That is?"

Somewhere in the core area of ​​the far north, a triangular purple light curtain blocked the invasion of wind and snow. Two figures sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at each other with bored expressions.

The middle-aged man with a long face and hooked nose suddenly shuddered, bumping his shoulder against the burly man beside him, and said, "Xiong Mo, my level seven soul-guided landmine has been triggered by a soul beast."

Xiong Mo glanced at him and said speechlessly, "Xu Cong, are you stupid? Isn't it normal for soul beasts to appear in a soul beast gathering place?"

Xu Cong nodded: "That seems to be true..."

"We've been in the core area of ​​the far north for over a month now. When is the great opportunity you mentioned coming?" Xiong Mo stood up and questioned. Although he wasn't tall, the aura emanating from his bulging muscles was exceptionally powerful.

"Don't be impatient."

Xu Cong patted Xiong Mo on the shoulder and pointed to the snow-capped mountain 500 meters away: "Ahead is a snow-capped mountain lotus pond. Judging from the aura, there must be a 100,000-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Lotus inside!"

"You should have said so earlier! I would have stolen it!"

Seeing Xiong Mo roll up his sleeves, ready to charge, Xu Cong quickly pulled him back and angrily rebuked him:

"Idiot, is your brain made of muscles?!"

Xu Cong threw a piece of metal toward the snow mountain. In the blink of an eye, a sky-blue light flashed, and the metal turned into a cloud of dust and disappeared.

"Ah, this..." Xiong Mo's eyes widened.

"The restriction was set up by a 100,000-year-old soul beast. I guess this lotus pond is the result of that 100,000-year-old soul beast's painstaking efforts over tens of thousands of years, and now it's time to reap the rewards." Xu Cong's eyes were sinister. "The Mingde Hall records state that the 100,000-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Lotus has the heaven-defying effect of enabling a 100,000-year-old soul beast to be reborn as a human. That 100,000-year-old soul beast knew that it could not break through the great tribulation, so it turned to another way to be reborn as a human, gambling on the path to godhood."

We just need to wait patiently for that immense fortune to arrive, and then seize it when the 100,000-year-old soul beast transforms!

"Can it really work?" Xiong Mo was quite apprehensive as he observed the terrifying power of the restriction.

"You're a Vajra Douluo, after all, and don't forget my area of ​​expertise as a level nine Soul Master," Xu Cong said confidently with a smile.

"seal……"

Xiong Mo seemed to understand something, then turned his head and said, "But didn't you just break through to the ninth level Soul Master? You only have one ninth-level Soul Tool, the God Sealing Platform..."

"Level nine is level nine, it doesn't matter when you break through. Your three great empires don't even have a single level nine! If I hadn't offended Master Mingde and the Sun Moon Empire's royal family, how could I, a dignified level nine soul master, have fallen so low as to worry about money? It's settled then, you contact the Starlight Auction House, and once I seal that 100,000-year-old soul beast and sell it with the Conferred God Platform, it'll fetch at least a hundred million gold soul coins! I'll take 80%, you take 20%, and we'll never have to worry about money again!"

Money can be tempting, and Xiong Mo couldn't help but laugh: "Hehehe, I'm from the Star Luo Empire, and I have some connections there. Starlight Auction House hopes to establish a long-term partnership with you and is willing to reduce our commission by half!"

But speaking of which, why did you offend the Sun and Moon Imperial Family and the Master of Mingde Hall?

"Don't even mention it!"

Xu Cong sighed and said, "Ten years ago, a stunningly beautiful woman named Feng Yu came to Mingdu. She led a group of people to establish Linglong Pavilion, and won over imperial nobles and soul masters everywhere, gradually expanding her power."

Two years later, Linglong Pavilion gradually gained a foothold and she began to deal in soul tools. Soul tools from the Sun Moon Empire were resold to the three great empires for at least eight times the price!

At the time, I was the chief researcher at Mingdetang. She agreed to split the profits 50/50 with me, so I acted as the middleman to sell the soul guides produced by Mingdetang.

As a result, when the truth came out, that old man Jing Hongchen dismissed me without saying a word, disregarding our past relationship, and then went to the royal family to notify that no sect or academy in the country was allowed to accept me.

During my time trading soul tools, I fell in love with Fengyu. I wanted to marry her and elope to the three great empires, but Fengyu said she was money-obsessed and loved money more than anything else in her life. She said she would only consider marrying me if I brought her 100 million gold soul coins.

"Brother Xu, although I, Old Xiong, have never married, I feel like she's playing you for a fool," Xiong Mo said hesitantly.

"No, Fengyu has her reasons!"

Xu Cong almost spat into Xiong Mo's mouth: "Feng Yu told me that she has a vicious older sister who bullied her and stole her candy and money since she was a child. As she grew up, she became more and more outrageous. She would beat and scold her for the slightest displeasure and eventually kicked her out of the sect."

After years of wandering and hiding, he finally found peace in the Sun Moon Empire and started smuggling soul tools, all in the hope that one day the Holy Maiden would return and he could take revenge on his cruel and heartless sister!

She's an insecure little girl, and since she likes gold soul coins, I give her gold soul coins!

I want to support her!

I'd give anything for her!

Xu Cong transformed into a warrior charging into battle for love, his entire being seemingly ablaze with passion. This prompted Xiong Mo to quickly cover his mouth and whisper, "Shut up, you love-struck fool! Something's coming."

A woman descended from the sky to the lotus pond on the snow-capped mountain. Her long, white hair cascaded down her back to her waist, and her flawless features seemed to embody the beauty of this pristine white world.

"A humanoid soul beast... wait, a humanoid soul beast from the far north!?"
