Ice Emperor, Natal Soul Ring

The two simply stared at the icy-blue light barrier, speaking no further.

The originally indignant Ice Emperor also turned his gaze toward it.

His amber-like eyes flickered slightly, gleaming with sharp light and radiant splendor.

Meanwhile, within the icy-blue light barrier, Su Yu underwent a complete transformation.

Endless cool energy poured from between his brows into his body.

From his soul, to his Meridians, to every limb and bone, he felt as though he were being cleansed.

His already exceptional innate physique seemed to undergo another transformation.

Like parched earth receiving sweet rain after a long drought, his soul greedily absorbed that cool energy. His spiritual platform was clear as a mirror, and his thoughts drifted into boundless emptiness.

The Meridians within his body seemed to be coated in a layer of icy-blue light under the washing of that cool energy, becoming broader and tougher.

The impurities and filth hidden deep within his body were completely expelled, then frozen into ice fragments that fell from Su Yu's body.

His physical condition grew even stronger, and his body became increasingly robust.

This icy-blue light had brought Su Yu an immense opportunity.

This was the baptism of the Extreme North World.

The cool energy circulated through Su Yu's body, nourishing and cleansing him from within outward. At the same time, a phantom roughly ten feet tall slowly appeared behind him.

The phantom wore an archaic icy-blue imperial robe adorned with scattered snowflakes. A Cold White Dragon coiled around the entire robe, its sharp fangs and ferocious claws exuding immense majesty.

Looking closely, there were also twelve kinds of white patterns upon the imperial robe, perfectly complementing the snowflakes and giant dragon.

The phantom wore an icy-blue crown with Twelve Tassels, likewise icy-blue in color. With the tassels obscuring his face, his features were somewhat blurred and impossible to make out clearly.

Yet the supreme majesty of an emperor was displayed to the fullest.

The instant the phantom appeared, an extreme chill erupted from Su Yu's body.

Almost instinctively, Su Yu removed his crimson robe. At once, icy-blue light enveloped an area several meters around him.

Su Yu's hair rapidly changed from black to white, until it became completely snow-white.

His originally ink-black eyes turned icy-blue.

In but a moment, Su Yu's aura had changed dramatically.

Su Yu had originally been a sunny, lively boy, but now he carried an additional air of cold detachment.

Buzz!

Immediately afterward, specks of icy-blue light gathered in the sky. Within the barrier, countless icy-blue motes surrounded Su Yu completely.

The endless icy-blue light began to merge, gradually forming a massive icy-blue halo.

The icy-blue halo encircled Su Yu, giving off dense energy fluctuations.

Buzz!

Buzz!

Buzz!

The icy-blue halo emitted wave after wave of buzzing, and its color began to change.

After flickering several times, the icy-blue halo gradually turned white, then yellow. After another flicker, it became a mysterious purple.

After turning purple, the icy-blue halo flickered faintly before ceasing to pulse.

It rapidly shrank, then directly settled over the phantom behind Su Yu.

Within Su Yu's body, his previously saturated Soul Power finally broke through its bottleneck and entered a new stage.

Once everything was complete, the icy-blue beam that connected heaven and earth finally began to dim.

The enormous vortex in the sky slowly dispersed, while the icy-blue light barrier surrounding Su Yu gradually vanished as well.

A small snowflake mark had appeared between Su Yu's brows.

"Ice Emperor..."

As though struck by sudden inspiration, Su Yu murmured those words.

Outside, seeing that the icy-blue light barrier had finally disappeared, Uncle Tian flashed to Su Yu's side.

"Are you all right?"

Uncle Tian asked with concern.

"I'm fine, Uncle Tian. I feel great right now."

Su Yu smiled faintly.

This time, the benefits he had received were truly immense.

The baptism of the Extreme North World had transformed him in every aspect.

Originally, his strength had been around seven or eight thousand jin, close to ten thousand.

But now, he estimated that his strength had surpassed ten thousand jin by at least several thousand jin.

Of course, increased strength was only one aspect. The enhancement to his physical constitution was comprehensive, not limited to strength alone.

Moreover, his Spiritual Power had improved as well. While it had not broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm, it had at least reached the peak of the Spirit Connection Realm.

The gains were undeniably immense.

Of course, the greatest gains were still his Martial Soul and soul ring.

The Heavenly Gifted Martial Soul might not be as mystical as a god-given Martial Soul, but its strength was still first-rate.

Though it could not compare to the terrifying Dragon God Seal, it was still one of the strongest Martial Souls in the world.

During the era of Douluo 2, very few Martial Souls could stand on equal footing with it.

As for the soul ring, it was even more precious.

This soul ring was essentially Su Yu's Natal Soul Ring.

It was a soul ring that could grow and evolve alongside Su Yu.

It was similar to Tang San's fifth Blue Silver Emperor soul ring. The only difference was that Su Yu's soul ring had a higher limit.

After all, Tang San's Natal Soul Ring had merely been produced by the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline. The Blue Silver Emperor was ultimately only a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Su Yu's soul ring, however, had been bestowed by heaven.

If this soul ring evolved to its ultimate extent, it might even have a chance of becoming a god-level soul ring.

At present, Su Yu's soul ring was approximately five thousand years old.

A five-thousand-year first soul ring—not through some special method, but because he could genuinely withstand the pressure of a five-thousand-year soul ring.

Su Yu could be considered a pioneer in history.

"Endless Destiny Holder, a Heavenly Gifted Martial Soul and soul ring... could that be the reason?"

A trace of speculation flashed through Su Yu's mind. Perhaps all of this was related to his so-called destiny.

"As long as you're fine. How did your Martial Soul Awakening go?"

Uncle Tian let out a breath of relief and asked.

"It went very smoothly. I didn't expect the awakening method to be like this."

"My Martial Soul is called the Ice Emperor. It has the Ice Attribute."

"I'm afraid it isn't merely the Ice Attribute. It's also the exceedingly rare Ultimate Ice!"

Just as Su Yu finished speaking, a voice rang out. Snow Empress and Ice Empress had also arrived before Su Yu.

Su Yu turned slightly, and two figures immediately entered his sight.

One was a scorpion roughly one and a half meters long, its entire body resembling a fusion of diamonds and emeralds—beautiful and exquisite.

The other was a stunning woman.

She had snow-white hair, sky-blue eyes, skin like ice and bones like jade, and a complexion as white as snow. Her features seemed crafted by nature itself, so beautiful they took one's breath away.

Her temperament was cold and aloof, yet she exuded the dominance and majesty of an emperor. She looked slender and graceful, but in truth, she was as towering as a mountain.

In Su Yu's impression, Uncle Tian was the strongest person he had ever seen. Yet the woman before him seemed not much weaker than Uncle Tian.

The protagonist was infused with dragon clouds at birth, consumed many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, underwent the cleansing of the Extreme North World, and had the support of Twin Martial Souls. Being able to withstand a five-thousand-year soul ring is perfectly reasonable—I didn't write it randomly, okay? (ˇˇ)(`)
