Brothers in the Human Emperor Banner!

At the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the sun rose and set, time passing silently like flowing water.

As the mist in the spring bubbled gently, Jiang Li awoke slowly from the water, his upper body bare.

His well-proportioned, supple skin shimmered with delicate textures under the water's reflection, and a faint golden radiance flickered across his surface, as if he had been reforged, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Having completed the Ice and Fire Golden Body Refinement, Jiang Li could clearly feel that at his dantian, the ice and fire energies of the two immortal herbs had formed a Taiji fish pattern similar to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well itself, flowing in an endless cycle.

He summoned his Blue Silver King once more; it was clearly visible that the Blue Silver King martial soul, which originally possessed only a faint silver thread, was now covered in red and blue patterns.

Jiang Li glanced at Tang San, who was still refining his own immortal herbs, and after confirming that the aura around him was stable, he performed a carp leap and swam toward the depths of the spring.

The remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings lay dormant ten thousand meters beneath the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

In that lightless abyss, their massive skeletons not only cradled the soul bones that had burst forth when the Dragon Kings fell, but also retained a formidable, lingering dragon might.

It was precisely because of this suppression that the immortal medicinal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had never gained sentience or evolved into immortal plant-type soul beasts.

Yet for Jiang Li, who had just consumed the immortal herbs, this mountain-like pressure became a rare advantage.

He could use this to refine the medicinal power within his body, allowing the essence of the herbs to merge with his physique more rapidly.

Continuing deeper, Jiang Li soon felt an immense pressure, making it clear that his current physique and Soul Power Level were insufficient to support further exploration.

But to return empty-handed?

Such an outcome was unacceptable to Jiang Li.

He reached out with his left hand, grasping at the void, and the shadow of a flagpole appeared in his grip!

"Banner, come!"

At first, it was merely a dim line, but it quickly extended through the dark water at the bottom of the spring.

The surface of the Human Emperor Banner, which was coolly emitting black mist, vibrated violently in the water, as if howling in silence.

Countless blurred human and beast shadows flickered and vanished on the banner, accompanied by suppressed, extreme shrieks.

The once-calm water began to boil. Jiang Li's eyes flashed with a pitch-black light, and as he clenched his hand, the shadow instantly solidified!

"Hehehehehehe—"

"It has been a long time since I summoned you, my old friend!"

The banner billowed, and the outlines of countless wandering souls emerged upon it; their weeping, wailing, and roaring blended into a bone-chilling tremor.

It was not a sound, yet it seemed to strike directly at the depths of a living being's soul.

How was Jiang Li able to reach the cultivation of a Soul Saint at such a young age? It could be said that his second martial soul, the Human Emperor Banner, had played a massive role!

Do you understand the value of instant refinement?

It is no exaggeration to say that every bit of cultivation he gained along the way was aided by those "lucky" souls.

You dare to be fierce with me?

Then you have chosen the path of death!

Hehehe, This Seat is magnanimous, so I shall punish you by letting you reflect inside my Human Emperor Banner!

Purple, ink-black Hongmeng purple energy flowed continuously from the Human Emperor Banner, wrapping around Jiang Li.

In an instant, the pressure that had prevented him from descending further seemed to vanish without a trace, and Jiang Li pushed forward in one breath, reaching the deeper reaches of the spring.

The deepest part of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was a vast, gloomy space.

There, two giant dragon skeletons—one red and one white—coiled into the shape of a Taiji, their presence majestic, lying like ancient gods.

Roughly estimated, each dragon skeleton was a thousand meters long.

Based on this terrifying size alone, one could imagine the immense power the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings possessed in life; even the Sky Azure Bull Python, known as the Emperor of the Forest, would be nothing more than a small snake before them.

At the heads of the red and white dragons, a ball of crimson and icy-white flame hovered, churning incessantly like an eternal torch.

The pressure they emitted spread along the distinct cold and hot springs, covering the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

This was the dragon might that had not fully dissipated even after the deaths of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.

Had Jiang Li not consumed the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot, which shared the same origin as the Dragon Kings, and had he not possessed the augmentation of the Human Emperor Banner, he would have been crushed to dust by this dragon might long ago.

Through the unique perception of the Human Emperor Banner, Jiang Li discovered that the dragon souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings seemed to be in a deep slumber.

Hehehe—

In that case, this Outer Realm Heavenly Demon would not be polite!

One must know that the absorption of soul bones has no restriction on Soul Power Level, let alone this pair of dragon-king-level skeletons!

This treasure was truly fated to be his.

Since he had come today, he intended to take everything.

He wanted these dragon bones, and when he left, he could even show mercy by allowing the dragon souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings to reside within his Human Emperor Banner to live a second life.

At this moment, Jiang Li truly felt that he was far too kind!

In the future, once he ascended to godhood, the other party could even serve as his mount and achieve true resurrection within the God Realm.

Tsk tsk, what a truly magnificent stroke of fortune!

With this thought in mind, Jiang Li began to search for the dragon bones on the two Dragon Kings.

It did not take long for him to discover two arm bones shimmering with different lights located at the forelimbs of the Fire Dragon King and the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.

One was as scorching as fire, the other as frigid as ice; they were none other than the Fire Dragon King Left Arm Bone and the Ice Dragon King Right Arm Bone.

Although he desperately wanted to absorb and refine these two spirit bones immediately, he knew that now was not the time.

With a wave of the Human Emperor Banner in his hand, the two special spirit bones were enveloped by strands of black mist, quickly vanishing as they entered Jiang Li's martial soul.

Such a massive disturbance naturally awakened the two great dragon souls from their slumber.

One must know that their spirit bones housed a vast portion of their essence, which was the very reason they had not dissipated despite having fallen so many years ago.

Now that their spirit bones had been absorbed by Jiang Li's martial soul, if they still could not wake up, they might as well never wake up at all.

"Where did this little insect come from, daring to covet our spirit bones!" ×2

The furious roars of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings sounded like those of ancient, primordial beasts.

"Do not be impatient, you two. This Seat has come today to offer you both a stroke of fortune."

The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings stared at each other with wide eyes; clearly, neither of them had expected that Jiang Li would not only remain undeterred by their dragon might but also have the audacity to claim he was offering them a stroke of fortune.

However, Jiang Li did not give them the chance to continue speaking.

With a sweep of the Human Emperor Banner in his hand, the two massive dragon souls were reaped into his martial soul.

He made it clear: anything they wanted to ask could wait until later. Once they entered his Human Emperor Banner, everyone would be brothers!

Hehehe--
