Ice and Fire Body Tempering, Awakening the Thunder God Trial!

"Hahaha, this old man's Martial Soul has finally transformed."

Feeling the endless stream of powerful strength within him, Dugu Bo shouted excitedly.

A yellow flame surged from his Martial Soul. The Dragon Clan bloodline within him had evolved into the Flame Jade Phosphorus Flood Dragon, and his Soul Power had even risen to level 92.

After his Martial Soul Evolution, the snake venom within his body greatly diminished. It had been drawn back in by the Flood Dragon Snake and contained within his Martial Soul.

However, what still worried him was that the toxins had not been completely absorbed by his Martial Soul. Some poison remained.

"It seems Xiao Tao was right. I still need one more treasure for my Martial Soul to evolve completely and for the poison to be fully cured."

Dugu Bo recalled what Zhou Tao had once said. After consuming the Blue Silver Grass, he still needed another treasure for his Martial Soul to advance completely.

"I'll go see how that kid is doing."

"I'll ask him what treasure it is."

Although some toxins still remained in his body, Dugu Bo was in an exceptionally good mood.

After all, there was now a solution to the fatal poison. The Dugu Family was saved.

However, when he arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he saw an astonishing sight.

Violent energy erupted from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, surging out of the divine spring.

A wave of incomparably cold ice energy and a wave of incomparably scorching fire energy churned madly in the middle of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

And between those two energies stood a motionless figure, right in the center of the pool.

"Hiss—"

"This kid actually dared to enter the center of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well?"

"Is he trying to die?"

Dugu Bo's ecstatic expression instantly froze, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Could this kid be killed by those two terrifying energies?"

Dugu Bo instinctively wanted to rush into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and pull Zhou Tao out, but before he could move, two terrifying currents of ice and fire energy burst from within and forced him back.

Golden light bloomed from Zhou Tao's body.

Accompanied by that golden radiance, a massive and sacred lightning phantom appeared behind Zhou Tao.

Before that lightning phantom, hundreds of meters tall, Dugu Bo felt for the first time just how insignificant he was.

He stood there blankly, not daring to move.

"This kid has actually awakened a powerful Martial Soul bloodline as well."

"It looks like an ultimate lightning-attribute bloodline."

"He truly is a genius."

At this moment, Zhou Tao was immersed in cultivation.

He had not entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well blindly.

Following the method from the original story, he consumed the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass at the same time. Using the two extreme energies to temper his body within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he sought to stimulate the power of his bloodline.

Combined with the power of the Golden Thunder Purgatory Flower, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well completely activated the bloodline within his body. His physique was strengthened, and his potential was awakened.

Deep within his consciousness,

there was a world woven from seven-colored radiance, tranquil, peaceful, and incomparably magnificent.

High in the sky, a majestic figure covered in violent lightning slowly emerged. A handsome and sacred figure appeared.

"Zhou Tao, you have finally reached this point."

Zhou Tao was slightly startled. Wasn't he tempering his body? Why had he appeared in such a strange place? "Who are you?"

"I am a remnant thought of the Thunder God."

"The Thunder God?"

Zhou Tao was shocked. The Thunder God had once been a first-class deity of the God Realm, a powerhouse second only to the God Kings.

The Thunder God controlled lightning and possessed the ultimate power of destruction. Yet, during a great war in the God Realm, he had perished together with the Water and Fire Dragon Kings, and his whereabouts had been unknown ever since.

Zhou Tao had never expected the Thunder God to appear within his body.

"Yes, the Thunder God Inheritance has not appeared for a very long time."

"Do you wish to inherit the Thunder God Inheritance, become the new Thunder God, and even go one step further to become a supreme God King?"

"Of course I do!"

Zhou Tao did not hesitate. Who would not want a divine position possessing such ultimate destructive power?

Tang San had the support of the Asura God and the Sea God. If Zhou Tao wanted to defeat him, he would certainly need to obtain a powerful divine position.

The Thunder God was indeed a good choice.

Moreover, it was said that the Thunder God had a good relationship with the God of Destruction. If he obtained the Thunder God's divine position, perhaps he could gain the support of the God of Destruction and the God of Life.

By then, with three divine positions, dealing with Tang San would be easy.

"Your path will be difficult. You must endure countless trials, and it may even be several times harder than an ordinary God King assessment. Do you truly accept?"

A voice like thunder rang out.

After pondering for a long time, Zhou Tao still said firmly, "I accept!"

If he wanted to defy fate and change his destiny, he had to seize this opportunity.

Otherwise, given his circumstances, it would be difficult for him to say whether he had any chance of defeating Tang San, the future Child of Luck, especially Tang San with the backing of two divine positions.

After all, the other side had an absurdly powerful cheat. Even if he lost, he could forcibly restart and fight again.

Against such a shameless enemy, Zhou Tao had to seek the help of gods.

"From this day onward, the Thunder God Trial begins."

"First trial of the Thunder God Trial: enter the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and fuse with the Spirit Bones of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings."

"I hope you can restore the Thunder God's glory."

The moment the words fell, the Thunder God's figure vanished instantly.

The surrounding space trembled violently, and black-purple Thunder of Destruction God seemed poised to destroy everything.

Then, Zhou Tao's consciousness returned to reality, and he reappeared within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

He focused his mind, still somewhat astonished. He had never expected to awaken the Thunder God Inheritance while tempering his body.

The Thunder God Inheritance is a vacant position. It truly suits me best.

"The Thunder God Inheritance will be mine!"

Zhou Tao murmured.

The next moment, he plunged directly into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

The first trial of the Thunder God Trial was to obtain the Spirit Bones of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings.

The Water and Fire Dragon Kings had been among the top first-class gods in the Douluo world. Even though they had fallen many years ago, the Spirit Bones they left behind were undoubtedly supreme treasures.

If he absorbed those Spirit Bones, he would definitely gain enormous benefits.

Moreover, tempering his body in the depths of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well would certainly allow his physique to advance further, preparing him to absorb even more powerful Spirit Rings.

If the Water and Fire Dragon Kings' Spirit Bones further strengthened his body,

then for his future third Spirit Ring, he might be able to absorb one around ten thousand years old.

For his fourth Spirit Ring, he might even be able to absorb one several tens of thousands of years old.

Although body tempering was painful, this was a tremendous opportunity.

A true Spirit Master had to constantly pursue greater power and overcome all kinds of painful trials.

Thus, he entered the depths of the spring without hesitation.

Soaking in the spring water, his body was continuously strengthened. His skin became more resilient, his bones and flesh were tempered, impurities within his body were rapidly cleared away, and he underwent a transformation from the inside out.

Now, he was impervious to water and fire, immensely powerful.

He surfaced, took a deep breath, and then headed toward the depths of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
