Twin-Pole Lotus Realm Suppression, Dragon Lotus Twin-Pole Bodyguard, External Soul Bone!
Time slips away, bit by bit.
Apart from the howling sea wind and the faint sound of ice pressing against each other, there was no other noise.
Just as Ye Qing was absorbing the Soul Ring and entered the most crucial halfway point...
Beneath the calm ice sheet lies the deepest sea.
An almost imperceptible dark shadow glided silently along the Ice Surface.
It blended perfectly into the dim surroundings, without even causing a ripple.
Caught off guard.
The dark shadow pierced straight through the thick ice.
A nauseating, putrid stench swept straight towards Ye Qing's unsuspecting back.
The murderous intent was extremely well-hidden.
A cold glint flashed in Snow Empress's eyes.
She didn't even make any extra movements; she simply raised her hand casually.
A sharp icicle materialized out of thin air and shot out at an incredibly terrifying speed.
"Bite--"
A crisp sound.
The icicles struck the dark figure's vital spot with pinpoint accuracy.
The dark figure let out an extremely unpleasant and eerie hiss.
If its first strike misses, it becomes extremely decisive.
With a twist of his body, using the force of the recoil from the ice shards, he disappeared into the deep black water in the blink of an eye.
They vanished without a trace.
Ice Empress's brows furrowed deeply.
An immense and unparalleled spiritual force radiated outwards, sweeping wildly across the entire sea area.
From the heavens above to thousands of meters below the seabed.
Not even a single fish that slipped through the net was spared.
Nothing was found.
We have completely lost track of the target.
Snow Empress also concealed her aura and focused her attention on sensing the remaining energy around her.
"It's very well hidden."
"This thing can perfectly conceal its form and presence; even I can't pinpoint its location."
Ice Empress's face turned completely grim.
She was already angry.
There are actually some fools who dare to carry out assassinations and sneak attacks right under her nose?
This is practically rubbing the face of the Kings of the Far North into the ground.
"What's that, acting so suspiciously?"
Ice Empress uttered each word slowly and deliberately, the killing intent in his voice almost tangible.
"You really think you can hide in the sea and I won't be able to find you?"
She spread her arms wide to the sides.
The Eternal Frozen Domain once again unleashed its full power.
This time, the cold was more than ten times stronger than before.
The biting cold storm tore through the black mist on the sea surface.
The area Ice Seal is expanding outwards at an alarming rate.
One thousand meters, five thousand meters, ten thousand meters.
The entire sea area seemed to have been forcibly paused in the blink of an eye.
The thick, hard ice layer rolled down violently.
The sea surface is frozen, the middle layer of seawater is frozen, and the deep-sea trenches are frozen.
Until that extreme icy power froze the thick black mud and sand deep in the seabed into indestructible permafrost.
All was silent.
Ice Empress stared intently at the bottomless ice beneath their feet.
The crystal-clear polar ice is like the clearest magnifying glass.
soon.
Beneath the ice sheet, extremely deep below the sea surface.
A gigantic, outrageously large, bizarre silhouette was forcibly trapped within transparent, solid ice.
It was a gigantic monster that was hundreds of meters long.
It has no skeletal support whatsoever, resembling an extremely viscous mass of minced meat.
Inside the bottomless maw, there were rings upon rings of pale, sharp teeth, like those of a meat grinder.
A dozen or so thick, disgusting, translucent fleshy whiskers hung from his chin.
The monster's entire body blended perfectly with the surrounding murky seawater.
If it weren't for being completely sealed off by this indiscriminate, Eternal Frozen Domain.
Even Titled Douluo's spiritual power couldn't detect its existence.
Ice Empress stared at the grotesque, disgusting thing beneath the ice.
His gaze was icy cold.
"Found it."
Two peerless Ferocious Beast, each with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, stood guard here to protect the Dharma.
How dare some foolish bastard launch a sneak attack right under their noses?
This is practically humiliating the Far North.
The ice layer froze through the ocean to a depth of 10,000 meters.
Even the thickest black mud and sand at the bottom of the water have now completely solidified into an indestructible glacier.
The entire turbulent sea was as quiet as a vast, silent tomb.
Ice Empress's emerald-green eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
Her mental power had already penetrated the ice layer and locked onto the hundred-meter-long giant fish monster's body on the seabed.
Snow Empress exclaimed in surprise, "It's actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"
The icy blue light on the tip of the Ice Empress's claw pulsed violently, radiating a sharp, predatory aura.
"So what if it's been a hundred thousand years? It's just a small fry hiding its head and tail. It's easier to smash it."
Ice Empress snorted coldly.
In her view, every second that such a despicable creature, who only dares to launch sneak attacks, remains is an insult to the majesty of the Kings of the Far North.
She immediately raised the heavy claw that radiated absolute zero.
The intense cold air rushed down from the tip of the claw and sank downwards.
Once this strike lands, the deep ice, along with the strange giant fish within, will be crushed into primordial ice crystal fragments in the blink of an eye.
Snow Empress raised her fair hand and gently blocked her way.
"Wait, keep it until Ye Qing finishes absorbing the Soul Ring."
Ice Empress's brows furrowed deeply.
Her delicate and pretty face was drawn long, and the corners of her mouth kept turning down.
She glared fiercely into the depths of the ice.
But when she glanced sideways and met Snow Empress's calm, clear eyes, most of her anger dissipated.
"What a hassle."
Ice Empress let out a heavy snort.
She reluctantly retracted the heavy claw, muttering under her breath.
Time slips by, little by little.
On the Ice Surface not far away.
Ye Qing sat cross-legged, and the dazzling blood-red light swirling around him was visibly shrinking inward.
The turbulent water and fire energies surged wildly through his meridians, only to be forcefully crushed inch by inch by the Chaos Green Lotus.
The lingering obsession of that 100,000-year-old Nine-Jointed Fish Dragon roared wildly in its Sea of Consciousness.
Unfortunately, against Ye Qing's formidable mental defenses, it was nothing more than an ant trying to shake a tree.
After several breaths, the last trace of violent aura was completely refined.
The dazzling red light transformed into a halo, settling steadily at the very bottom of Ye Qing's Soul Power level.
The tenth ring, done!
Ye Qing's mind raced.
This tenth Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring provided two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skill.
The first Soul Skill is a control skill called "Twin-Pole Lotus Realm Suppression"!
The dual-polar power unfolds into a lotus realm to suppress the target, weakening all of its attributes and Soul Skill effects, and suppressing the flow of its Soul Power.
The second Soul Skill is an amplification skill called "Dragon Lotus Twin-Pole Bodyguard"!
The dual-dragon lotus body greatly enhances all attributes and significantly improves the effects of Soul Skill.
Ye Qing silently praised herself, "Not bad."
Before he could fully recover...
A sudden, intense warmth surged through my chest.
The extremely high temperature radiated through the clothes.
With a subtle clicking sound as the bones fused together, a beautiful scale radiating a dual light of water and fire appeared out of thin air.
That's the Soul Bone from the Nine-Jointed Fish Dragon!
Moreover, it possesses External Soul Bone —the "Nine-Section Scales"!
The scale-like patterns extended and spread like a living thing, perfectly blending into his bones.
This is absolutely an unexpected and overwhelming joy!
