Douluo Continent: I possess astonishing wisdom as I control energy!

However, Kong Ming'an shook his head at this, "The time can be shortened."

A hint of doubt appeared in Xue Di's icy blue eyes.

"Absorb the Myriad-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow," Kong Ming'an said.

"Part of the energy is used to accelerate the transformation, allowing the soul core within the star ring to grow to its current limit as quickly as possible; the other part of the energy is accumulated to prepare for the condensation of the second soul core."

Transformation is not something that comes out of nothing; it requires a massive amount of energy to support it, and the remaining millennia-old Xuanbing marrow is the most perfect source of energy.

The Snow Empress seemed to be deep in thought. She took out a crystal-clear, ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow, which appeared to have some kind of liquid flowing inside, and brought it close to the icy blue star ring.

With a slight thought, the Star Ring seemed to come alive, generating a faint suction force and actively absorbing the pure, extremely cold energy from the Profound Ice Marrow.

The energy was completely absorbed in an extremely rapid manner, and the icy blue fluorescence flowed across the surface of the rings, becoming increasingly dazzling.

Xue Di gave Kong Ming'an a meaningful glance, then sat down cross-legged and entered a deep state of cultivation.

Hyotei watched this scene intently, their eyes filled with pure envy, not jealousy.

For someone like her, standing at the pinnacle of soul beasts, seeing a clear path to further advancement, how could she not be tempted? She pursed her lips, a hint of anticipation unconsciously appearing in her golden eyes.

Kong Ming'an glanced at Hyotei, chuckled, and asked, "What, you want to learn?"

Hyotei froze, immediately crossed his arms, turned his head away, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Who wants to learn this!"

Kong Ming'an remained silent, but his gaze unconsciously lingered on the slightly swaying scorpion tail behind the girl.

A hint of amusement stirred within him, and Kong Ming'an slowly smiled, "If you wish to cultivate this 'Star Ring' technique, it's not impossible, but it will require time."

Chapter 87 Hyotei: How come this guy is so skilled?!

"First of all, you need to know that the 'Star Ring' technique is not yet universally applicable."

"It was completely custom-designed by me based on Xue Di's body data and energy structure. If I want to promote it, I need a lot of time to modify and adapt it."

"Secondly, the conditions for cultivating this thing are also very demanding."

"A level 90 Soul Master can generally condense a traditional Soul Core, but my improved version, because it has 'growth potential,' doesn't require much Soul Power to condense in its initial state."

"However, this requires even higher control over soul power, at least at the level of a Super Douluo."

"Furthermore, the spirit ring that carries the spirit core must be at least 100,000 years old; a 10,000-year spirit ring cannot withstand its load."

Thanks to the selfless sacrifice of a certain evil soul master at the Title Douluo level, he used Elder Yi's still unfinished ring fusion technique to create a somewhat unstable 100,000-year soul ring.

This is how it successfully carried his new soul core. Of course, this unfinished "star ring" became unbalanced and annihilated after Kong Ming'an removed the power to maintain it.

After a slight pause, Kong Ming'an chuckled softly:

"Of course, the above restrictions are not a big problem for His Majesty the Ice Emperor, the second of the Three Kings of the Far North."

"The biggest problem with the 'Star Ring' technique right now is actually its energy," Kong Ming'an said, his tone becoming slightly more serious.

"All the Ten Thousand Years of Profound Ice Marrow, including what's left on the Snow Emperor's body and what I have here, combined, is probably only enough to support the Snow Emperor in condensing four to five 'Star Rings' and allowing them to grow to their limit."

"To further condense the 'Star Ring,' a massive amount of soul power will be needed. After all, the fundamental purpose of the 'Star Ring' technique is to achieve the ultimate sublimation of soul power and thus become a god. The energy required to become a god must be enormous."

"So, do you have some enormous energy source?"

"No." Hyotei's voice sounded a little hesitant.

"It's okay, I can handle it."

Hyotei's eyes brightened instantly, and his heart began to beat a little faster, almost against his will.

She remained silent for a moment, but ultimately could not resist the temptation of becoming a god, and couldn't help but ask, "Can you help me?"

"sure."

Kong Ming'an narrowed his eyes slightly, a kind smile appearing on his face.

Under Hyotei's watchful gaze, he slowly and methodically took out a blank contract from his storage soul tool, and then directly wrote down a series of terms on it.

A moment later, he pushed the newly formed contract in front of Hyotei.

“So,” he smiled, his voice full of enticement, “would you like to sign a contract?”

Hyotei was slightly taken aback when she saw Kong Ming'an's unusually practiced movements and smile. She subconsciously took a step back, her delicate face instantly filled with vigilance.

Why does this guy seem so skilled at this?!

Could this guy be plotting something?!

But that's an opportunity to become a god!

Hyotei pursed his lips, caught in a dilemma.

……

……

Just as Hyotei was still wondering if they had been set up, on the other side, outside Shrek City,

The night was deep, the moon was hidden and the stars were few.

A small convoy of vehicles traveled along the quiet road, heading towards Shrek City, which was still a dozen miles away.

Suddenly, the spirit beasts pulling the carts at the front of the caravan began to howl anxiously. The leading spirit master pulled on the reins and stopped first, followed by the entire caravan, which then came to a halt.

At the very front of the convoy, a hunched figure sat quietly in a wooden wheelchair, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

The moonlight suddenly shone down, illuminating the somewhat aged yet kind face in the wheelchair.

It was none other than Dragon God Douluo, Mu En.

Moon raised his slightly cloudy eyes and looked at the most magnificent carriage in the caravan. His voice was calm and even, yet carried an undeniable power:

"If you don't die from the poison, leave Shrek City."

"Ah."

A cold laugh rang out, and the carriage curtain was lifted by a hand, allowing Poisonous Undying to step out.

At this moment, Poison Undying was a burly man with short, dark green hair standing on end. His aura was concentrated and powerful, yet not revealed in the slightest.

Moon's expression changed slightly. He sensed a terrifyingly powerful surge of energy within the body of the Undying Poison.

Du Bu Si stopped not far from Mu En, a contemptuous sneer on his face:

"Leave Shrek City? By what right, Moon? By your current crippled, half-dead body?"

Moon's gaze was calm, but he repeated, "Leave Shrek City."

Poisonous Undying sneered, his next provocation: "Is that all you know? You should know that a few days ago, when Xuanzi questioned me before I chased him away, he was much more eloquent than you!"

Moon didn't speak again. The next moment, an indescribable terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his hunched body!

A dazzling golden light shot into the sky, illuminating half of the night sky as if it were daytime.

A pure, bright, vast, and powerful pressure, imbued with the might of a dragon, crashed down on Poison Undying like a tsunami!

The air froze, and the earth trembled slightly, revealing the world's top-level power!

However, under this terrifying pressure that would make even ordinary Title Douluos kneel, Du Busi remained as unmoved as a rock.

He let out a wild laugh, and the dark green aura of his blood and qi erupted from his body, shooting straight into the sky like a plume of smoke!

The body's martial soul unfolds, revealing an incomparably powerful blood and qi, enhanced by a soul force infused with potent poison.

With the three powerful forces combined, his body emitted a faint light, and he managed to stand up to Mu En's Radiant Dragon Might with his physical body alone!

One was a Limit Douluo, and the other was infinitely close to a Limit Douluo. These two terrifying auras collided fiercely in the air, producing a silent roar.

Ultimately, however, it was Mu En who, with his slightly superior cultivation level, used his light-attribute soul power to continuously pressure the space around Poison Undying, causing him to show signs of weakness.

Mu En's eyes gleamed as he slowly spoke, "Poison Undying, take the people of the Body Sect and leave. I do not wish to create any more bloodshed."

The suppressed Poison Undying grinned even more savagely: "Mu En, do you think you're still the Dragon God Douluo you used to be?!"

At this moment, nine perfectly matched spirit rings suddenly rose up on Du Busi's body.

Immediately afterwards, the spirit rings on his body lit up one by one, but not by using spirit skills; instead, they simply circled around his body.

— "Unraveling the cycle".

The restriction on energy by the spirit ring was lifted, and the enormous spirit power stored in the spirit ring poured into his body like a bursting dam!

His aura began to rise steadily, and his blood and qi burned like a furnace, emitting scorching waves of heat!

"Moon!"

With a roar, Poison Undying's body suddenly swelled up, his skin gleaming with a metallic sheen, and he threw a punch directly at Mu En!

Moon's gaze turned serious. He then raised his withered hand and, seemingly slowly, threw a punch!

—Ruling the world.

"boom!"

The shockwave exploded! Moon's wheelchair flew out, but his aged body remained hunched over, completely still.

However, his brows furrowed slightly. From the opponent's fist force, he sensed a pure and domineering power that was different from traditional soul power!

Is this the power of Qi and blood?

Chapter 88 Poison Never Dies: My Body Sect is Truly Thriving!

Is it the power of Qi and blood?

Mu En pondered for a moment, then stopped holding back. His eyes shone brightly with golden light, and he threw a punch that seemed to carry the will of the entire world, slamming it down on Poison Undying!

The poison neither kills nor dodges; the victim simply crosses their arms to withstand the attack.

"boom--!"

Poison Undying was sent flying like a cannonball, spitting out blood. His chest was covered in cracks, as if he were about to split open.

However, Du Busi merely adjusted his posture slightly in mid-air, and then landed as easily as a feather.

He swayed slightly, and the terrible wound on his chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, his blood and energy still as vigorous as a raging fire!

"Hahaha! Is this all the strength the Dragon God Douluo has?!" Poison Undying wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed arrogantly.

Moon frowned, remaining silent. His figure in the wheelchair remained motionless, yet he continued to unleash punch after punch!

The overwhelming fist shadow was imbued with the power of light that purifies evil spirits, and then rained down on Poison Undying!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Poison Undying was forced to retreat steadily, blood blooming continuously from his body, and the sound of bones shattering could be clearly heard.

However, at this moment, Poison Undying seemed to have truly possessed an immortal body. No matter how many injuries he suffered, his immense blood and qi would surge up instantly, forcibly repairing his injuries!

While being beaten, Poison Undying laughed wildly, "Moun! If you were in good health and at your peak, I would naturally turn around and leave! But with your crippled body now, how long can you last at full strength?! How many more times can you use your Sea God's Light?!"

Moon punched him into the ground, his voice icy: "Killing you a few times is enough."

Poison Undying crawled out of the pit, covered in blood, but his aura only grew stronger. He grinned maliciously:

"Try to kill me a few times? Then come on! The mere Light of the Sea God is only enough for me to struggle in my death throes! Enough for me to escape! Enough for me to recover and come back with a vengeance! How many more times can you use the Light of the Sea God?! How long can you, old man, live?!"

His voice was loud and clear, carrying a powerful momentum, and it pierced into Moon's ears:

"Do you think that piece of trash Xuanzi can withstand a few of my moves?! And how long do you think it would take me to slaughter your entire Shrek Academy if I wanted to?!"

Every word is heartbreaking.

Moon's attack ceased. He remained seated in his specially made wheelchair, his aged face flickering in the moonlight, and remained silent for a long time.

After a long silence, he spoke slowly, his voice tinged with weariness: "What exactly is your purpose in coming to Shrek City?"

Poison Undying chuckled lightly:

"It's all because your Shrek people broke the rules and tried to forcibly seize our partner's things. I'm just here to protect our partner's business and seek justice!"

"We, the Body Sect, are simply here in Shrek City to do business honestly!"

Mu En looked at him calmly, his gaze scrutinizing him. After a long silence, his hunched figure slowly became ethereal and finally disappeared into the night, leaving only an aged voice echoing in Du Busi's ears:

“Poison cannot kill. I know the location of your Body Sect. I am a dying man. If Shrek Academy is harmed because of you, I do not mind committing another act of murder before I die.”

Poison Undying remained silent, his figure towering and motionless, waiting for a full hour. Only after confirming that Moon had truly left did his expression twist in horror.

"I'm fucking alive, but the pain is absolutely awful."
