"Get ready to begin."
The Fire Dragon King's voice broke the brief silence, carrying a trace of gravity and anticipation.
Ling Feng took a deep breath and slowly sat cross-legged on the spot. He closed his eyes and adjusted his state, calming his heart until it was as still as water.
Beside him, Zhao Yun gripped the Hundred Birds Divine Phoenix Spear tightly, watching the surroundings with vigilance.
The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King exchanged a glance, and their remnant souls began to burn.
"Boom!"
Blazing flames and frigid icy flames erupted, releasing an incomparably powerful aura.
It swept across the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
The surrounding lake water began to tremble violently.
As the remnant souls burned, streams of icy blue and fiery red spring water suddenly surged forth.
Like two enormous Flood Dragons, they continuously coiled around Ling Feng's body.
Gradually taking the form of two soul rings.
At the same time, the two soul bones below released a powerful surge of energy, pouring it into the two rings surrounding Ling Feng.
"Next, the Ice Dragon King and I will help you absorb these two God-level Soul Bones. The process may be extremely painful. You must endure it, or all our efforts will be wasted."
The Fire Dragon King's voice rang beside Ling Feng's ear.
Ling Feng nodded slightly. He clenched his teeth and prepared himself for the pain ahead.
Finally, the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King controlled their soul bones, and two streaks of light shot toward Ling Feng like lightning.
The soul bones instantly merged into his body, and Ling Feng felt a powerful force raging within him.
As though it wanted to tear his body apart.
His left arm was enveloped in icy blue radiance, forming an ice-blue left arm that emanated bone-piercing cold.
His right arm was flooded with fiery red light, transforming into a crimson right arm that radiated scorching heat.
At that moment, Ling Feng's entire body released a powerful aura. It made the lake water surge like an ocean, with thunderous waves that inspired terror.
Amid the agony, Ling Feng persevered through sheer willpower. He continuously circulated the Soul Power within his body, attempting to tame that immense force.
The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King watched him closely from the side, constantly adjusting the power of the soul bones.
Ensuring that Ling Feng could absorb them smoothly.
Time passed second by second.
The light around Ling Feng gradually stabilized, while his aura grew increasingly powerful.
Finally, after a difficult struggle.
Ling Feng successfully absorbed the two God-level Soul Bones. He slowly opened his eyes, a trace of joy and confidence visible within them.
Two soul rings circled Ling Feng's body, one icy blue and the other fiery red. They resembled crystals, each engraved with ten golden patterns.
"Thank you, both of you. I will not disappoint your expectations."
Ling Feng rose to his feet and bowed once more to the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.
The phantoms of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King nodded faintly, their figures gradually becoming blurred.
"Go, human Soul Master. Remember your promise."
The voices of the Fire Dragon King and Ice Dragon King echoed by Ling Feng's ears. Then, their remnant souls completely vanished into the air.
After Ling Feng absorbed the soul rings and soul bones, the bottom of the lake fell into silence.
Ling Feng stood motionlessly like a statue, complex emotions flickering in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he left the place together with Zhao Yun.
After leaving the lakebed, Ling Feng did not linger. His gaze fell upon the mature immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Using the special methods he had learned before, he carefully picked them one by one and gently placed them into his Ring Storage Soul Tool.
After finishing the harvest, Ling Feng took one last look at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Now that it had lost the nourishment of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' soul bones and remnant soul power, perhaps within only a few years, the unique properties of the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would gradually become negligible.
It would be almost impossible for it to nurture those rare immortal herbs again.
Perhaps after several decades, the power within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would completely dissipate, reducing it to an ordinary valley.
Immediately afterward, Ling Feng left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and met up with Dugu Bo, who had been waiting outside.
"Dugu Bo, your Soul Power has just broken through to level ninety. Next, I'll help you obtain a soul ring."
Ling Feng's voice rang through the silent forest as he slightly turned his head and spoke to Dugu Bo.
In his heart, Dugu Bo had now officially joined the Soul Ring Pavilion. The stronger Dugu Bo became, the greater the benefits would be for the Soul Ring Pavilion.
A powerful Titled Douluo was undoubtedly a trump card for the Soul Ring Pavilion, one who could play a crucial role in many matters in the future.
"Thank you!"
When Dugu Bo heard those words, his eyes narrowed slightly, and an imperceptible smile appeared at the corners of his lips as he sincerely expressed his gratitude.
He had just been worrying about his Ninth Soul Ring.
Ever since embarking on the path of a Soul Master, he had always traveled alone, without a powerful clan or faction to support him. He could truly be called a lone man with no one to rely on.
Trying to obtain a Ninth Soul Ring through his own strength was simply as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
If he chose Ten Thousand Year soul beasts with relatively low cultivation as his Ninth Soul Ring, he could certainly absorb one successfully, but the improvement to his strength would be greatly diminished.
It would place immense restrictions on his future development.
The Ninth Soul Ring was of vital importance to a Titled Douluo. Its quality and cultivation directly affected the limit of power a Soul Master could unleash.
Ling Feng and Zhao Yun's willingness to help him obtain a soul ring finally lifted the heavy burden from his heart.
With their assistance, obtaining a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring of over eighty thousand years was an effortless matter.
"Do you have any specific requirements for the soul beast or cultivation age of your Ninth Soul Ring?"
Ling Feng asked slowly.
Determining the target soul beast's characteristics and cultivation range in advance could greatly improve the efficiency of the search and prevent wasted time.
"My martial soul is the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor. For my Ninth Soul Ring, it would be best to find a soul beast with potent poison, preferably a serpent-type soul beast. As for the cultivation age, around eighty thousand years will do."
"If we cannot find a suitable soul beast, a lower cultivation age would be acceptable as well."
Dugu Bo raised his head slightly as he spoke.
He silently assessed his body's strength. After his previous cultivation and the improvements brought by consuming immortal herbs, he believed that he could absolutely absorb a soul ring over eighty thousand years old.
As for a soul ring of an even greater age, though he held a trace of longing for one, he clearly knew that it would be unlikely to find.
On Douluo Continent, soul beasts that simultaneously possessed an eighty-thousand-year cultivation, poison attributes, and serpent-type traits were extremely rare.
They were as scarce as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
Therefore, he could not demand an excessively high soul ring cultivation age. A soul ring around eighty thousand years was enough.
