Douluo Continent.

The light in the valley gradually dimmed. The lake water of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was still surging, half cold and half hot.

I don't know how long it took, maybe an hour, maybe two, but the light on Lin Yaoyang finally began to fade.

The blood-red circle of Soul Ring slowly descended, merged into his body, and disappeared.

He opened his eyes.

Ice Empress felt that the aura exuding from him was more than one level stronger than before.

"Successful?" she asked, with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

Lin Yaoyang stood up and moved his body. The bones made a series of crackling sounds, and a faint golden sheen spread on the surface of the skin.

With a thought in his mind, five circles of Soul Ring slowly rose from his feet.

Purple, purple, purple, black, red.

Three purple, one black and one red.

Level 49 to level 56.

The fifth in one hundred thousand years Soul Ring.

Lin Yaoyang clenched his fists, feeling the power rushing through his body.

That feeling... like every cell in the body was ignited and filled with explosive energy.

"Level fifty-six." He said, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Fifth Soul Ring, one hundred thousand years."

Ice Empress's eyes lit up.

She rushed over and hugged Lin Yaoyang.

"Good boy! The fifth Soul Ring in 100,000 years! Do you know what this concept is? On the entire continent, it is unique to have Hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring and Soul Master in the fifth ring!"

Lin Yaoyang was hugged by her so hard that she couldn't breathe and patted her on the back.

"Sister Bing'er, please tap..."

Ice Empress let go of him, took a step back, and looked him up and down, his bright yellow eyes full of joy and pride.

"I knew the cub I raised would be good!"

Lin Yaoyang smiled.

He turned to look at the remains of Infernal Delicate Apricot. The once fiery red Immortal Herb had now turned into a pile of gray-black dead branches.

The petals withered, the leaves curled, and the branches dried up, like a corpse that had been dried for thousands of years.

But under the pile of dead branches, there was a red skeleton the size of a palm.

Infernal Delicate Apricot Soul Bone.

Soul Bone, produced by Plant-type Soul Beast in 100,000 years, is of extremely high quality and contains the core capabilities of Infernal Delicate Apricot.

Lin Yaoyang squatted down and picked up the piece Soul Bone.

When it is warm in hand, a faint red light flows on the surface.

"We'll study it when we go back." He put Soul Bone into Storage Soul Tool and stood up.

He looked at the hot spring water in half of the lake and the extremely cold water in the other half, thinking deeply in his heart.

Ice Empress saw Lin Yaoyang standing by the lake in a daze.

"Yao Yang, what's wrong?"

Lin Yaoyang didn't look back, his eyes still fell on the lake.

"Sister Bing'er, it is said that Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was formed after Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King fell, and Dragon Bone was buried under the spring." He said, "You think... should we go down and look for it? Maybe we can also find the treasures left by the two Dragon King."

Ice Empress's brows wrinkled slightly.

"But... isn't it a bit dangerous?" She walked to the lake, dipped her mental power into the water, and withdrew it after a moment. "With my mental power, I feel that if I want to reach the bottom of the spring, I may have to dive to a depth of ten thousand feet."

Ten thousand feet.

Lin Yaoyang turned around and looked at Ice Empress, whose short orange-red hair looked like a small cluster of burning flames in the dusk.

"Sister Bing'er, wealth can be found in danger." He smiled, "The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish. If you can really find the relics of the two Dragon King down there, you will make a lot of money."

Ice Empress raised his eyebrows.

"Who did you learn this from?"

"Teach yourself without a teacher."

"Poor talk." Ice Empress rolled his eyes at him, and then thought about it seriously, "But... you can give it a try. I will go down with you, and if there is danger, I can also protect you."

Lin Yaoyang nodded.

He walked to the side of Yang Spring, and Ice Empress walked to the side of Ice Spring. They looked at each other and jumped down at the same time.

The moment he entered the water, Lin Yaoyang felt a burning heat coming from all directions.

The temperature of Yang Spring is ridiculously high, and ordinary Soul Master will be cooked instantly if you jump in.

But his Martial Soul is Ultimate Fire, and this temperature is as comfortable to him as warm water.

He activated Soul Power to form a faint golden light film on the surface of his body, isolating direct contact with the spring water. Then he began to dive.

Ice Empress is on the other side, also diving.

The two people's mental powers are always in contact, and they can sense each other's position even under water.

The dive speed is not fast. The further down you go, the darker the light becomes and the more extreme the changes in water temperature become.

But neither of them stopped.

I don't know how long I have been diving, maybe half an hour, maybe an hour, but Lin Yaoyang suddenly felt that the pressure around me was relieved.

He released his mental power and leaned forward, finding that the space in front of him suddenly expanded.

It's not an illusion.

The space under the spring is much larger than above. It is like an inverted funnel, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The further you go down, the wider the space becomes, as if you have entered a huge underground cave.

At the same time, the surrounding extreme cold power and extreme heat power are getting stronger and stronger. The two completely opposite energies intertwine and collide in the spring water, forming a strange balance.

Lin Yaoyang sped up.

Then, he saw it.

In the depths of the spring, where the red and blue lights intertwine most intensely, two huge skeletons lie there quietly.

Dragon Bone.

Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.

Even though countless Ten Thousand Yearss have fallen, those two Dragon Bones still exude a heart-stopping coercion.

Their size is too big.

Since there are only two colors of red and blue under the water, the line of sight is limited, so Lin Yaoyang cannot see the whole picture clearly, but he speculates that each of the two Dragon Bone is thousands of feet long.

Lin Yaoyang gathered his thoughts and began to observe carefully.

The skull of Ice Dragon King faces the northwest, and the skull of Fire Dragon King faces the southeast. The two Dragon Bone are intertwined at a strange angle, as if they were still fighting at the last moment of their fall, or as if they were embracing.

Lin Yaoyang's eyes fell on Ice Dragon King's skull.

Between its dragon horns, something is glowing.

That's a bead.

It is about the size of a lychee and is completely icy blue. It is suspended in the center of the two dragon horns and slowly rotating.

Even from a distance, Lin Yaoyang could feel the terrifying energy contained in that bead.

The ultimate coldness, pure ice energy without any impurities.

He turned to look at Fire Dragon King.

Same position, same beads.

Only the color is different, that one is fiery red, like a solidified flame.

Lin Yaoyang's eyes lit up.

He released his mental power and sent a signal in the direction of Ice Empress.

Ice Empress swam over quickly.

She also saw the ice blue bead on Ice Spring, and her bright yellow eyes were full of excitement and disbelief.

She pointed at Ice Dragon King's skull and then at herself, her eyes asking: I'll get that one, you get that one?

Lin Yaoyang nodded.

The two of them swam to two Dragon Pearl.

Lin Yaoyang swam to Fire Dragon King's skull, stretched out his hand, and held the fiery red bead.

It's scalding hot, but that scalding heat is not burning, but a warm, vital heat.

The beads beat slightly in his palm, as if echoing the Ultimate Fire in his body.

He pulled gently and the beads fell out from between the dragon's horns.

To his surprise, nothing happened.

No Dragon Soul appeared, no energy riot, not even a trace of fluctuation.

Dragon Bone is still lying there quietly, motionless, as if the bead is just an insignificant decoration on their body.

Lin Yaoyang frowned slightly.

He originally thought that taking away Dragon Core might trigger some kind of restriction or awaken the remaining souls of the two Dragon King.

The result is nothing.

It went so smoothly.

It was so smooth that something was wrong.

He turned to look at Ice Empress.

Ice Empress also got the ice blue Dragon Pearl, holding it in front of his eyes for a closer look.

Her expression was the same as Lin Yaoyang, with a hint of surprise and confusion.

Ice Empress used his spiritual power to scan the bottom of the spring, and after confirming that there was nothing else except Dragon Bone, he made a gesture to Lin Yaoyang.

Go up.

The two began to float.
