Qianxun looked Bibi Dong up and down with amusement, a wicked smile creeping across her face.
"However... with Bi Jie's looks and charm, if we work hard, we might just win over the future sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Winning over the sect leader is the same as winning over the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
Bibi Dong rolled her eyes at Qian Xunqian and turned her head away. "I don't want to talk."
"Alright, let's go get Sister Xiao her fifth soul ring. After absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow and the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, her physique has far surpassed that of an ordinary Soul King. In addition, her spiritual power has also reached a new level after cultivating in the Cold Spring."
"I think the spirit beast of this fifth spirit ring must be at least 20,000 years old."
Tian'e nodded as well.
"Elder Gui, I would like to trouble you to make a trip back to the Spirit Hall and inform the Pope about the discovery of the Ten Thousand Year Ice Cave. Please ask him to send someone to take over, preferably a powerful Title Douluo."
"yes!"
As soon as they jumped out of the ice cave, they heard a phoenix cry. Along with the cry, the willow-like snowflakes around them instantly turned into huge hailstones.
"Such a powerful area-of-effect ice control ability, Sister Xiao, you're really lucky. Just when you're feeling sleepy, someone comes to deliver a pillow."
Bibi Dong shook her head, disagreeing:
"I think it might be the faint fragrance emanating from you that's causing the problem. After all, to the spirit beasts right now, you're about the same as a freshly baked, fragrant meat bun..."
"Seventh Soul Skill: Golden Crocodile True Form!"
Elder Tian'e instantly transformed into a gigantic golden crocodile king, roaring towards the sky.
The intimidating presence of the Super Douluo caused the eternally frozen ice phoenix to tremble for a moment, losing its balance in the air and falling downwards.
"Of the seven treasures, the second is speed."
Ning Fengzhi also summoned his martial soul to accelerate the Golden Crocodile Douluo.
With the acceleration, Elder Tian'e leaped, and the crocodile's gaping maw instantly swallowed the Eternal Frozen Phoenix.
When they landed again, the Martial Soul True Form had been dispelled, leaving only an old man with his eyes closed, head held high, and hands behind his back.
There was also a small blue bird covered in blood, barely alive.
Ning Fengzhi said: "I and Golden Crocodile Douluo joined forces to kill a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast."
"This soul beast is at least 25,000 years old. Little girl, are you sure you can handle it?"
Shui Xiao'er hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself. To be honest, her fourth soul ring was only eight thousand years old, and her fifth soul ring was twenty-five thousand years old. It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid.
"I...I feel I only have a 50% chance..."
Chihiro pondered for a moment and then said:
"Why not combine it with the absorption of the Frostbite Spirit Spring? The success rate will be greatly increased. This Ice Phoenix is also a top-tier soul beast. My Angel Eye also has the purification effect of a six-winged angel, which can slightly alleviate your negative status."
"Let's take a gamble. Anyway, we have Uncle Crocodile. If anything goes wrong, we can stop him. It's just a matter of waiting another three months!"
Shui Xiao'er revealed a resolute look in her eyes: "Alright!"
With the assistance of Han Quan, Qian Xunqian's Angel Eyes, and Ning Fengzhi's third soul skill "Soul Power Amplification"
Shui Xiao'er barely managed to absorb the soul ring of the Eternal Frozen Ice Phoenix after four hours of effort.
His soul power increased by seven levels in one go, but because his cultivation speed dropped significantly after his martial soul evolved into the ultimate ice, otherwise, with other ice-type martial souls, he would have already been acquiring his sixth soul ring by now.
Qianxun Qian yawned and asked Shui Xiao'er to recite the names of the dishes:
"Sister Xiao, what is your fifth soul skill?"
"My fifth soul skill is called Ice Phoenix Burning Heaven Flame. It releases a wide-range eternally frozen flame, dealing massive ice attribute damage to all enemies within the range. The flame can freeze soul power and meridians, burning them for 5 seconds. During this time, the target cannot use teleportation skills. Cooldown is 30 seconds."
"Hiss... That's a bit domineering! No wonder it's a top-tier soul beast's soul skill!" Qianxunqian said enviously.
Bibi Dong suddenly became interested and ran to the corpse of Binghuang. She examined it curiously and kicked it a few times.
Then, a dazzling blue light flashed—holy crap! The Blue Legend!
"This...this is an external soul bone!" Bibi Dong's mouth gaped open.
"Not bad luck. Although the higher the quality of the soul beast, the greater the chance of it dropping a soul bone, a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast still dropped an external soul bone. This luck..."
Tian'e gave Bibi Dong a meaningful look. This Holy Maiden seems a bit strange. Just now, Shui Xiao'er didn't explode after absorbing the soul bone, but Tian'e had to kick her a couple of times to make it explode!
"Little girl, absorb it."
Tian'e wasn't particularly jealous, after all, Shui Xiao'er had sworn allegiance to the Spirit Hall with her martial soul, and the stronger Shui Xiao'er became, the more she would help the Spirit Hall in the future.
Two hours later, Shui Xiao'er successfully absorbed the Ice Phoenix Wings, but she walked unsteadily and crashed after only a few flights.
"The external soul bone has not yet fully fused with your body. Let me give you a hand!"
The Heavenly Crocodile slowly exerted its pressure, and with the help of this pressure, Shui Xiao'er was able to quickly fuse the Ice Phoenix Wings with her body.
"Thank you very much, Second Master!"
Shui Xiao'er's feelings were very complicated at this moment. It is said that the debt of gratitude is the hardest to repay. She doesn't know how many debts she owes now. Even if she were cut in two and worked day and night, she still wouldn't be able to pay them off!
The group continued their quiet cultivation in the ice cave, and after ten days, Ghost Douluo finally returned.
Ghost brought the three elders of the Hall of Worship—the level 96 Super Douluo Qingluan Douluo, and Elder Lingyuan, who was still a level 89 Soul Douluo at the moment.
The rest of the personnel are still on their way, and the arrival of just two of their strongest fighters is enough to protect this ancient ice cave.
"I'll leave this to the Third Elder and Elder Lingyuan. Also, I wish Elder Lingyuan a speedy breakthrough in her title!"
Qianxunqian bid farewell to the two high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall and left the far north with the six people she was traveling with.
She couldn't wait to start assembling the innate soul power cultivation device!
Watching the large, fat worm slowly munching on the ice and snow inside the soul tool, Qianxun Qian shed tears of frustration.
She stared at the ice silkworm for a full hour; anyone who didn't know better would have thought Chihiro had fallen in love with the silkworm.
Well... the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is, after all, an ice-attribute soul beast, and its living environment needs to be cold. While the Star Dou Silkworm in the Star Dou Great Forest doesn't have high requirements for the environment, it's too good at jumping and is unstable.
If we could crossbreed these two types of silkworms and create a silkworm that is both lazy and adaptable to most environments, that would be wonderful!
However, it has not yet been proven that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm can be compatible with the device. If successful, soul beast hybridization should also be put on the agenda.
Stir-fried silkworms! Silkworm hotpot! No, I can't think about these things, these silkworms are for experiments!
With great excitement, Qianxunqian finally returned to the Wuhun City she had been longing for. As soon as she entered the city gate, she ran frantically towards her laboratory.
"Slow down! Slow down! You damned Xunqian, are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated?" Bibi Dong complained.
