Soul Spirit Prototype, a Brand-New Path!
The emerald green halo gradually faded over the desolate open space.
The illusory Green Flood Dragon hovered in mid-air, its vertical pupils, which were originally those of Ferocious Beast, now held less ferocity and more clarity.
It lowered its proud head and bowed respectfully in Ye Qing's direction.
This action is extremely human-like, conveying a sense of willing submission and gratitude.
Ye Qing waved his hand dismissively and casually replied to Snow Empress, "I didn't say anything."
"Tell it that if someone kills you to take your Soul Ring, your soul will be completely destroyed, leaving not even a trace, just a completely lifeless object."
"But I showed it the right path."
"Let it gamble big with me."
"A bet?" Snow Empress asked in surprise.
"That's right." Ye Qing nodded. "When Yanzi or I reach the threshold of becoming a god, we'll take the opportunity to rebuild its physical body and take it on a real journey to heaven."
"After thinking it over, it realized there was probably no other way, so it agreed."
"Ha?"
Ice Empress was taken aback.
"It's that simple?"
The crisp sound carried an undeniable sense of absurdity.
Is this Green Flood Dragon out of its mind? Does it really believe his lying mouth?
Can a mere empty promise really make a wildly unruly, Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast willingly sacrifice itself?
"Yes, it's that simple."
Ye Qing spread his hands and shrugged slightly.
"I wasn't sure at first either. I just wanted to do an experiment to see if I could forcibly separate and preserve its soul under the special conditions of sacrifice."
At this point, Ye Qing pointed to his chest.
"Who knew my Heavenly God Pearl would suddenly react at the crucial moment, causing that huge commotion just now?"
"As you can see, its current state is far superior to any broken soul; its entire Spiritual Origin has been sealed and preserved along with it."
Ye Qing paused for a moment, stroked his chin and pondered for a while, then casually gave this unprecedented, miraculous state a name.
"Let's call it, 'Soul Spirit Prototype '."
Snow Empress's flawless face was devoid of any superfluous expression, yet the light deep within her eyes flickered intensely.
She and Ice Empress lived for hundreds of thousands of years in the frigid Far North.
During these long years,
They were accustomed to the life and death of the Soul Beast Clan.
Having witnessed their kin turn to ashes under the Heavenly Tribulation,
They had also witnessed countless tragic scenes of people fighting to the death with human Soul Master for Soul Ring.
The ironclad rules of the Douluo Continent are etched into the very bones and blood of every living being.
When Soul Beast dies, Soul Ring appears.
They either cling to life and fight for a sliver of hope.
They will either become stepping stones for human advancement.
Even the highest gods never issued a decree to tell these Soul Beast, bound by heaven and earth, that there were other ways to live.
Even today.
Ye Qing was like an unreasonable game-changer.
He brutally and mercilessly shattered their beliefs that they had held onto for hundreds of thousands of years, time and time again.
No need to die?
Can one use a human body to escape Heavenly Tribulation?
Could he even become a god and reshape his physical body in the future?
This is simply a miracle!
"My lord! My lord!"
A dark figure darted out with a whoosh, breaking the tense atmosphere.
The Heavenly Black Monkey bowed and scraped as it approached Ye Qing, forcing an extremely fawning smile onto its furry monkey face.
It rubbed its two paws together, its eyes fixed on the majestic Green Flood Dragon phantom in mid-air, its mouth practically watering.
"Then, will I, the old monkey... also be able to walk on this broad road in the future?"
The black monkey was so excited that it danced around, gesturing and talking.
"When you become a god, won't I, the old monkey, also become a Divine Beast?"
Ye Qing glanced sideways at the shameless monkey.
"Want to take a shortcut? Sure."
Ye Qing stretched out two fingers and rubbed them together.
"Brew me plenty of Monkey Wine first."
Upon hearing this, the black monkey was not annoyed at all; instead, it chuckled twice.
It rolled its eyes and quickly retreated to the side.
He was clearly already planning where to scavenge rare and precious ingredients to brew wine for this gentleman.
Following this guy, it would be worth it even if we emptied all the Floating Island, let alone Monkey Wine!
After dealing with the monkey.
Ye Qing looked at Dugu Yan.
"Yanzi, how are you feeling?"
Ye Qing looked her up and down, a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"With this unprecedented blessing from the Soul Spirit, what is your sixth Soul Skill?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan's emerald green eyes immediately shone with dazzling light.
"My sixth Soul Skill is quite good."
She proudly raised her pointed chin. "It's called the Myriad Poison Flood Dragon Prison Burial!"
Dugu Yan's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and fervor.
"This is an extremely powerful and versatile Soul Skill that combines offense and control."
As she spoke, she swung her right arm as if to show off.
Beneath the fair skin of her arms, a subtle, warm, emerald-green sheen flowed.
"And this too!"
"The Green Flood Dragon's sacrifice not only gave me Soul Spirit and Sixth Soul Ring Soul Skill, but also a top-grade Right Arm Soul Bone that is a full 80,000 years old!"
"The Soul Bone Soul Bone Skill bone granted me is called Poison Cocoon Nirvana."
Even Dugu Yan herself found this skill somewhat unbelievable.
"As long as I suffer a fatal wound or am on the verge of death, this Soul Bone will automatically activate, transforming me into an indestructible, emerald-green poisonous cocoon."
"Within the cocoon, I can be immune to all external attacks."
"When I emerge from my cocoon, my condition will be fully restored!"
"Not only that, all basic attributes are doubled. The power of the poison is also doubled!"
It's like having a second life!
It even has a second life with a berserk cheat!
This Soul Bone Skill is extremely rare.
"Of course, none of that is the most crucial point."
Dugu Yan proudly raised the corners of her mouth.
"Most importantly, as Soul Spirit, the Green Flood Dragon retained its consciousness and fighting instincts."
"It doesn't require my mental energy to control precisely; it can detach itself from me and fight independently, unleashing its full power!"
As the saying goes, words are no proof.
With a thought, Dugu Yan immediately had the Green Flood Dragon give a live demonstration.
The Green Flood Dragon Soul Spirit understood the command immediately, turned its head, and opened its blood-red maw.
"Sizzle!"
A small cloud of deep, almost black, emerald-green Poison Fog spewed from its mouth, striking precisely a hard blue stone about two people tall next to it.
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
A series of teeth-grinding corrosive sounds rang out.
The bluestone, which could even break fine steel, was instantly corroded into a puddle of mud the moment it came into contact with the Poison Fog.
The venom seeped downwards, carving a bottomless black hole into the ground.
The edges were still sizzling, and pungent blue smoke was constantly rising upwards.
If such destructive power were to strike a person, not even bone fragments would remain.
Dugu Yan smiled, her eyes crinkling with contentment.
She walked quickly to Ye Qing's side, instinctively kissed and took Ye Qing arm, leaning most of her weight on him.
She knew it very well.
Ultimate Martial Soul Evolution, powerful Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, heaven-defying life-saving Soul Bone, and this history-making Soul Spirit.
All of this is thanks to the man beside me.
Without Ye Qing, Dugu Yan might have died from the backlash of the poison.
Ice Empress and Snow Empress exchanged a glance.
A storm was brewing in the eyes of the two great kings of the Far North.
As Ferocious Beast, they understood the profound significance behind the Soul Spirit Prototype.
This means that the sacrifice of Soul Beast is no longer a one-sided sacrifice.
Preserve the soul!
Preserve your spirit!
Even immortal!
They clearly saw a special path that did not exist before, a path unique to the Soul Beast Clan.
