Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

"Snow Spirit Martial Soul?" Kong Tianxu wiped his face in surprise.

The Snow Spirit Martial Soul might also be related to the Snow Emperor's place of rebirth. Could it be Su Tong?

No wonder she has the ultimate ice attribute of the Snow Empress in the original work.

As he pondered, the ecstasy suddenly intensified.

Kong Tianxu looked over and saw that Xue Di's expression was still lazy, but her raised silk feet were slightly closed, and she was exerting force, with a condescending look in her eyes.

"Yes, do you have something on your mind again?"

"Hiss—" Kong Tianxu's heart trembled.

To be honest, in the past, whether it was Cain, Xu Tianzhen, or Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan, Kong Tianxu was always the relatively weaker party in front of him, and the initiative was firmly in his hands.

Now that Xue Di has taken on such a strong, queen-like personality, Kong Tianxu suddenly felt a bit strange.

However, after a brief period of adjustment, this unusual feeling quickly turned into a different kind of stimulation.

Conquer the Queen?

That seems pretty good.

"Weren't you going to sea? It's getting late, hurry up and get ready. If you can't even resist such a simple temptation from me, how will you ever become a god?"

Seeing that Kong Tianxu had become serious, Xue Di stomped one foot harder, but pressed the other foot firmly against Kong Tianxu's chest, turning her blushing face away from him.

Don't be fooled by her daring to provoke Kong Tianxu just now, and her seemingly invincible appearance. Just how terrifying is Kong Tianxu's strength?

With the blessing of divine objects such as Dragon Pill and Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, his endurance has reached an inhuman level.

Xue Di has been unable to take it anymore these past few days.

"Naughty."

Kong Tianxu saw through Xue Di's outward strength but inner weakness at a glance. He smiled and grabbed her still misbehaving feet, putting the ice crystal necklace made of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow on her ankles.

"I am destined to become a god. You'll have to work harder. With my Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores and Ultimate Douluo level, I won't be able to use it for long."

The total number of ice marrow in the Myriad-Year Ice Cave is forty-five. Kong Tianxu left one, the Snow Emperor used thirteen to restore it, and used fourteen more to break through seven hundred thousand years. One was left for the Ice Bear King, and now there are a total of sixteen remaining.

Sixteen roots are enough to push the Snow Emperor's cultivation level to the level of 800,000 years in a short period of time.

But what should she do next?

Xue Di shook her head.

"These ice marrows are likely the last remaining ten-thousand-year-old profound ice marrows on the continent. It will be more useful for you, brother, to absorb them than for me to absorb them."

“You don’t understand.” Kong Tianxu’s fingers gently caressed her ankle. “For me, sixteen ice marrows are far from enough. I already have a target. And have you forgotten our contract? Consider this payment for hiring you.”

Kong Tianxu tapped the ice crystal chain a few times.

With Xue Di's current cultivation level, she couldn't even tell what Kong Tianxu had done to her. Suddenly, a strange life force appeared in those strands of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow, reflecting a diamond-like brilliance.

"And this is also a gift."

Kong Tianxu winked at her, stood up, and looked around as if he was choosing something.

"This is it."

She heard him say that.

-----------------

In this world that she remembered as one of desolation and death, Su Tong witnessed a scene she would never forget.

A gray six-pointed star pattern appeared in the sky.

The earth rumbled, and a majestic iceberg appeared out of thin air. The glacier she was trying to use to escape Zhu Qingbingchan's pursuit from behind was instantly covered with cracks and collapsed at an alarming speed.

The glacier, as solid as millennia-old iron, at this moment resembled a flowing river!

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

The intense tremors and icy storm caused Su Tong to fall to the ground, her arms crossed in front of her, only able to tell she was falling by the sound of the wind.

In a fleeting glance, she saw two figures, a man and a woman, flash past overhead.

Could it be that such a force altering the earth's veins could actually be achieved by human intervention?

All that remained in her mind was an indescribably beautiful ankle and the liquid-like emerald light emanating from it.

I don't know how much time passed.

The shaking finally stopped. The wind also gradually subsided.

When I opened my eyes again, the scene before me had been completely transformed.

Before her stood a heavy, frozen door, and in front of the door was a spring.

In such an environment of tens of degrees below zero, on this ice field where even the air is frozen, the spring water showed no signs of freezing, but the coldness was far greater than the lowest temperature she had ever seen.

The poison of the Zhu Qing Ice Toad, which had been rampant in her body, showed some fear when she approached the spring.

I'm saved!

Su Tong burst into tears, as if she had suddenly remembered something, and repeatedly kowtowed in the direction where Kong Tianxu and Xue Di had left.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, senior!"

Only when all the sounds around her disappeared did she turn around again. Her long hair had turned completely white, and her hands, covered in frost, scooped up the spring water outside the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave and put it into her mouth.

……

Why does it smell weird?

-----------------

Meanwhile, Kong Tianxu, who was flying at full speed, was unaware that his unintentional actions had caused Su Tong to misunderstand something.

He and Xue Di flew north, passing through rift valleys, crossing ice fields, and skimming over towering icebergs.

Gradually, my vision broadened.

They saw the ocean.

Even in this far north, the sea is not completely frozen. The vastness of the sea is boundless, like an inverted blue sky between heaven and earth.

There are both cold and warm currents underwater, and the convergence of these currents creates huge icebergs and ice floes that are frequently seen on the sea surface, but they are not completely frozen.

Further north, it's as if a certain boundary has been broken; the temperature is getting higher and higher, and the number of ice floes on the icy sea is getting fewer and fewer.

As the sun dipped lower, countless brilliant golden rays shone on the horizon, and the sun slowly faded away amidst this brilliance.

A mist gradually rose.

Despite the clear and bright weather, all that could be seen in the distance was a hazy curtain of sea and sky.

Kong Tianxu finally saw his destination.

Along with the Star Dou Great Forest, the Evil Emperor's Living Area in the Demon Forest, the core area of ​​the Far North, and the Abyss of Heavenly Wounds, it is one of the five forbidden zones of heaven and earth.

The Demon Cloud Sea Triangle.

It was still near the coast, yet no ship dared to pass through there, because none of the ships that had come here had ever returned.

The Demon Cloud Sea Triangle. Enveloped in mist year-round, thick gray clouds resemble a curtain rising from the sea, isolating the entire area from the outside world.

All the ships entered, but there was no news of them. Even a powerful figure at the Title Douluo level led a team in, wanting to find out what was going on, but they never came out again.

Kong Tianxu and Xue Di slowed down and flew inward.

Both remained highly vigilant. On the surface, they appeared relaxed, but Kong Tianxu's mental energy was constantly scanning the surrounding movements, even probing deep into the seawater.

The number of spirit beasts inhabiting the sea is at least ten times that on land. Their strength is also greatly enhanced in the sea.

Apart from a few Sea Spirit Masters who live by the sea, few people dare to venture deep into the ocean without understanding the habits of Sea Spirit Beasts.

This is also why whale glue is such a rare ingredient. Ten-thousand-year-old whale-type spirit beasts all live far from the coast, requiring a Title Douluo-level spirit master to handle them safely.

The 100,000-year-old whale glue that Kong Tianxu swallowed in the far north is a unique item that has been around for thousands of years.

Along the way, even though Kong Tianxu and Xue Di did not deliberately conceal their auras, sea spirit beasts still attacked them.

There was even a sea spirit beast that used a very special anti-air skill.

It should be understood that any living being that flies in the air actually relies on airflow and uses its soul power to impact the airflow to maintain flight. If it flies too high, it is very likely that it will fall to its death.

However, Kong Tianxu possessed the Myriad Beginnings Returning to Origin Domain, so it was naturally ineffective. Xue Di was even more of a Limit Douluo with dual soul cores complementing Yin and Yang, so this level of anti-aircraft restriction had little meaning for her.

Just as Kong Tianxu was about to annihilate the group of sea spirit beasts, the Snow Empress, who was usually unapproachable, unusually stopped him.

The distant sea suddenly rippled.

It was as if some enormous creature was rising from the deep sea, and with the violent shaking, the seawater surged to both sides, revealing the dark abyss below.

A gigantic blue monster slowly emerged from the abyss.

It is over a hundred meters long, its entire body covered with shield-like, dark blue scales that reflect a cold light in the dim sunlight. Its head resembles a dragon, but is even more slender, and its limbs are entirely broad, fin-like, with a perfect streamlined shape.

What is most striking are the eight huge scars on its back.

The scar had healed for a long time, yet it still clearly showed the marks of a giant jaw bite, as if it had been injured at the same time, and it had a pale color.

What thing could have eight mouths that big?

Or... does it have eight heads?

Kong Tianxu silently witnessed the seawater lifting it up completely, like a moving island slowly rising from the surging waves.

An ancient and extraordinary species, the Dragon King of the Azure Sea. 590,000 years of cultivation.

The overall strength of sea spirit beasts undoubtedly far surpasses that of land spirit beasts. In the seas near Douluo Continent, there are three beings whose strength is comparable to that of the Snow Empress, known as the three great near-sea kings of sea spirit beasts.

This includes the Sea Princess, who has 600,000 years of cultivation in the original work.

The Azure Sea Dragon King before them, though slightly inferior to the Sea Princess in cultivation, possessed superior strength due to its powerful ancient bloodline, making it the foremost of the three near-sea kings.

According to Xue Di, it rules over this triangle of demonic cloud sea and is the true master of this sea of ​​death.

The Fish Dragon King slowly opened its enormous eyes, which had no pupils, only a deep, dark blue like the ocean.

Its gaze swept over Kong Tianxu and then landed on Xue Di.

"Humans?" Its voice was deep, like muffled thunder from the depths of the sea, making the surface of the ocean tremble slightly.

Then, a hint of surprise flashed in those deep blue eyes.
