Ice Crystal Phoenix
Heaven Dou City, Blue Hao Prince's Residence.
Ye Lingling and Shui Bing'er need to acquire their ninth Soul Rings, and Tang San himself needs to absorb his Eighth Soul Ring.
Ye Lingling received a God-Given Soul Ring as a reward from the Fifth Trial, but Shui Bing'er did not.
In fact, according to the Sea God's plan, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King may have been prepared for his successor.
However, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Soul Ring contains extremely terrifying energy.
For Shui Bing'er, although the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Soul Ring was relatively compatible in terms of attributes, the absorption conditions were extremely demanding.
Given Shui Bing'er's physical attributes and normal conditions, absorbing Soul Ring with nearly a million years of cultivation is almost impossible.
Under the current circumstances, it is simply not suitable as Shui Bing'er's ninth Soul Ring.
She can only withstand a ninth Soul Ring that is around 300,000 years old at most. Forcibly absorbing Million-Year Soul Ring would only cause her to burst due to the enormous energy.
Therefore, Tang San and Ye Lingling stayed in the Prince's Mansion to absorb the God-Given Soul Rings.
Shui Bing'er, Xiao Wu, and Dugu Yan went to the Far North to find a suitable ninth Soul Ring.
With their combined strength, the three of them could handle even Ferocious Beasts that were hundreds of thousands of years old.
The next morning, Tang San and Ye Lingling went into seclusion to absorb Soul Rings, while Shui Bing'er and the others set off for the Far North.
Two months later, Tang San and Ye Lingling emerged from the secret chamber almost one after the other, both exuding a deeper aura than before their seclusion.
Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer now has eight Soul Rings, Soul Ring Configuration are red.
Relying on Tang San's terrifying Level 99 foundation, that God-Given Soul Ring directly soared to a terrifying level of 800,000 years, displaying a reddish-golden light.
The Clear Sky Hammer's base weight has exceeded 120,000 jin, surpassing the weight of Shui Bing'er's Sea God Trident.
Eighth Soul Ring Soul Skill: Hammer of Destruction.
Once activated, the power of destruction condensed around the Clear Sky Hammer, forming a huge dark purple hammer shadow.
After being swung, the Hammer of Destruction will fly towards the target area at an extremely high speed, and upon impact, it will create a devastating explosion covering an area of hundreds of meters, annihilating all matter within the range under the impact of the destructive force.
This skill is so powerful that it is impossible for anyone below the god level to withstand it.
Ye Lingling also completed the absorption of her ninth Soul Ring.
She upgraded the God-Given Soul Ring, a reward from the Fifth Trial, to a level of 300,000 years, and her Soul Power reached the peak of level 93.
With the blessing of a 300,000-year-old Soul Ring, her healing abilities are now capable of restoring severely injured individuals to a basic combat state in a very short time.
Shui Bing'er and the other two also returned to Heaven Dou City.
They spent two months searching the Far North and finally found a 200,000-year-old Ice Crystal Phoenix.
(I originally wanted to introduce the Soul Beasts from Douluo II, such as Ice Empress sacrificing Shui Bing'er, and Snow Empress returning to become the female lead. But considering that we're already in the late stages of the series, I'll pass. I'll write about Douluo II another time when I have the chance.)
The Ice Crystal Phoenix is one of the top-tier Soul Beasts in the Far North. It shares the same origin and species as Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, making it the most naturally compatible choice.
With over two hundred thousand years of cultivation, and of extremely high quality, if Shui Bing'er could obtain this Soul Ring, her strength would experience a qualitative leap.
Shui Bing'er and the Ice Crystal Phoenix discussed the sacrifice, just like the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python.
The Ice Crystal Phoenix was naturally unhappy. Soul Beasts instinctively distrust Soul Masters, after all, the latter had over two hundred thousand years of cultivation.
However, Shui Bing'er used the Sea God Trident and the Sea God's Light to prove her identity as the successor of the Sea God, and swore an oath with her Martial Soul to express her sincerity.
With Xiao Wu, a Soul Beast, acting as guarantor, the Ice Crystal Phoenix finally made a difficult decision and agreed to the Soul Sacrifice.
Besides, even if it doesn't agree, Shui Bing'er and Dugu Yan are capable of hunting it down.
After absorbing the Soul Ring of the Ice Crystal Phoenix and the torso bones condensed by the Ice Crystal Phoenix, Shui Bing'er 'Soul Power soared all the way up, eventually reaching the peak of level ninety-four.
The first Soul Skill of the Ice Crystal Phoenix's ninth Soul Ring: Ice Phoenix Nirvana.
This is an ultimate skill that combines survival and burst damage. When Shui Bing'er receives a fatal blow or her health drops to a critical level, Ice Phoenix Nirvana will be passively triggered.
Her body will unleash a shockwave of ice that forces enemies back. During her rebirth, her injuries will heal instantly, and her Soul Power will return to its peak.
The second Soul Skill of the Ice Crystal Phoenix's ninth Soul Ring: Extreme Ice Sky-Splitting Slash.
This is a single-target, fixed-point burst attack skill with extreme penetrating power as its core.
When activated, Shui Bing'er will instantly condense all the power of the Ice Crystal Phoenix within her body into her right hand, forming a giant ice crystal sword several meters long.
Shui Bing'er swung her sword forward, and wherever the blade passed, the air was instantly frozen, creating a hundred-meter-long ice crystal tunnel. Everything along the way was pierced by the blade of the giant sword, causing devastating damage to its target.
The first skill of the Ice Crystal Phoenix's Torso Soul Bone Ice Phoenix Armor.
Once activated, Shui Bing'er's body will be covered by a layer of ice crystal armor condensed from extreme cold.
While the armor is active, the damage you receive will be significantly reduced.
When the armor shatters after withstanding enough attacks, it releases a shockwave of ice crystals that covers the entire area, freezing all surrounding enemies in place for several seconds.
The second skill of the Ice Crystal Phoenix's Torso Soul Bone is Extreme Cold Resonance.
Once activated, the torso erupts with extremely cold energy, resonating strongly with the Soul Bones throughout the body, increasing the power of all ice-type Soul Ring skills and all Soul Bone Skills by three times.
Shui Bing'er has now collected the head, torso, right arm, both legs, and right arm bone. She only needs the last piece, the left arm bone, to complete the configuration of all six Soul Bones in her body.
Tang San cleaned up the remaining few Soul Bones.
The 60,000-year-old Evil Spirit Orca's left leg bone, the 30,000-year-old Evil Spirit Orca's right arm bone, the 100,000-year-old Qian Jun Ant Emperor Torso Bone, and the 100,000-year-old Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King's Head Soul Bone.
The only missing piece is a water-attribute left arm bone.
He recalled the 40,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark Left Arm Bone, and at that moment, his lower body felt a surge of heat, and he gave it to Shui Yue'er.
However, it was too late to regret it now, but Tang San thought of another method.
As sects with long histories, the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect should have a considerable stockpile of Soul Bones, and water-attribute Soul Bones are not very useful to them.
If she could exchange her existing Soul Bones for a suitable water-attribute left arm bone, Shui Bing'er's Soul Bone configuration would be complete.
Tang San found Tang Chen, who was in charge of the Clear Sky Sect. After some questioning, Tang Chen found a 70,000-year-old Ice Sabertooth Tiger Left Arm Bone, which had a high compatibility with Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul.
Tang San didn't take it for free; he exchanged it for the 60,000-year-old left leg bone and 30,000-year-old right arm bone of the Evil Spirit Orca.
Upon returning to the palace, Shui Bing'er immediately absorbed the left arm bone, and her Soul Power also broke through to level ninety-five.
Shui Bing'er's entire Soul Bone has now been collected, with only the final step remaining.
Only by defeating the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King can we complete the Eighth Trial of the Sea God.
There were still more than two years left in the five-year term, more than enough time.
After completing the Seventh Trial, Tang San prepared to head to Sea God Island.
He and Ye Lingling entered the secret room once again.
