Qian Renxue's Choice for Her Eighth Soul Ring, the Army at Noumenon Sect

After bidding farewell to Snow Empress, Mu Yunye did not leave the Far North. Instead, he planned to take this opportunity to search for Qian Renxue's eighth soul ring here.

"Ice Empress, do you know whether there are any soul beasts with sacred light attributes in the Far North?"

Mu Yunye asked.

"..."

Ice Empress pondered for a moment before telling Mu Yunye that deep within the Far North lived a powerful soul beast called the Aurora Radiant Snow Deer, possessing the exceptionally rare dual attributes of sacred light and extreme ice.

"Big Sister Xue, if we could let you..."

Mu Yunye suggested that if the soul beast could also form a Soul Spirit Contract with Qian Renxue, it would surely be of immense help.

Therefore, he needed to seek Electrolux's help within the Sea of Spirit, and Electrolux readily agreed.

"Yunye, my soul has recovered greatly during this time, all thanks to the nourishment of your Sea of Spirit. So I will also do everything within my power to help you."

Electrolux said softly.

"Thank you, Senior Yi."

Mu Yunye thanked him softly. Once everyone was ready, they immediately set off.

"Yunye, can the Soul Spirit Contract you spoke of really allow a soul beast to become my power while retaining its consciousness?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Qian Renxue's exquisite face.

"Of course it can."

Mu Yunye smiled slightly. Then Skydream Ice Silkworm, Autumn-Water Dew, and Ice Empress appeared.

"Senior Yi once used necromancy as a bridge, allowing soul beasts to coexist with soul masters as the purest source of power while retaining their consciousness."

Ice Empress's voice followed.

"The Aurora Radiant Snow Deer is an auspicious beast nurtured by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If it is forcibly killed, the sacred light origin within its body will certainly dissipate by more than half."

She reminded Qian Renxue, "If possible, display the aura of resonance you already share from the same origin. Perhaps that will move it."

"Thank you."

Qian Renxue was sincerely grateful.

She had just stepped into the realm of an eightieth-rank Soul Douluo. If she could obtain a soul spirit that perfectly matched her Six-Winged Angel Martial Spirit, her future path to godhood would surely be far smoother.

"This Aurora Radiant Snow Deer is a rare anomaly even in the Far North."

Ice Empress's voice continued, carrying a trace of pride.

"It has bathed beneath the auroras of the Far North Core Region all year round and has cultivated for more than eighty-five thousand years. Though it has not reached a hundred thousand years, the purity of its sacred light attribute is absolutely no weaker than that of any hundred-thousand-year soul beast."

Guided by Ice Empress's absolute aura as the overlord of the Far North, the two transformed into streaks of light and traveled unimpeded through the boundless snowstorm.

Boom!

Before long, a colossal ice valley that seemed carved from crystal appeared before them.

Brilliant auroras swirled above the ice valley. Seven-colored radiance poured down upon the glaciers like the ribbons of gods, illuminating the place like an earthly paradise.

At the center of the ice valley, where the aurora was most concentrated, a slender and extraordinary creature lay quietly atop the icy rocks.

It was an enormous snow deer over three meters long. Its entire body was the color of translucent ice crystal, yet beneath that crystal flowed a dazzling sacred light that made one's heart tremble!

"This is... the Aurora Radiant Snow Deer!"

Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes instantly lit up.

The moment she saw the snow deer, the Six-Winged Angel Martial Spirit within her unexpectedly produced an unprecedentedly powerful resonance!

"A sacred light attribute that is so perfectly compatible with my Martial Spirit?!"

As if sensing the aura of outsiders, the Aurora Radiant Snow Deer abruptly rose to its feet.

"Roar..."

A trace of vigilance flashed through its golden gemstone-like eyes. The antlers atop its head instantly erupted with rings of golden halos, forcefully pushing aside the surrounding wind and snow.

"We mean no harm."

Qian Renxue stepped forward, and the six dazzling golden wings behind her suddenly unfurled.

The ultimate sacred radiance complemented the auroras above the ice valley, while an Angel Domain devoid of killing intent, filled only with endless light and warmth, slowly enveloped the snow deer.

Buzzz—!

Sensing that sacred aura from the same origin, one even nobler and purer than its own, the vigilance in the Aurora Radiant Snow Deer's eyes gradually faded.

It was replaced by a sense of closeness and confusion.

Immediately afterward, Ice Empress and Skydream Ice Silkworm appeared together to persuade it, all in the hope that it would accept becoming a soul spirit.

At last, the Aurora Radiant Snow Deer agreed.

Seeing this, a smile curled across Mu Yunye's lips as he spoke softly within the Sea of Spirit.

"Senior Yi, I'll leave it to you."

"Leave it to me."

The gray halo of Electrolux's necromancy wrapped around the snow deer's Sea of Spirit like a gentle spring.

Under Electrolux's soothing guidance and the guidance of Qian Renxue's sacred aura, this rare eighty-five-thousand-year soul beast finally closed its eyes and began accepting the Soul Spirit Contract ritual that transcended life and death.

Meanwhile, within the Heavenly Soul Empire, far beyond countless mountains and rivers, at the Noumenon Sect.

Rumble—!

The once-clear sky was instantly completely obscured by dense, ink-black purple clouds, and a terrifying pressure that transcended the laws of heaven and earth descended.

"Who goes there?! How dare you cause trouble at my Noumenon Sect!"

Dozens of powerful auras shot into the sky from the depths of the mountains.

When Du Bushi sensed Bibi Dong, his expression abruptly changed.

Rumble—!

Behind Bibi Dong, the massive phantom of a Death Spider Emperor, large enough to blot out the sky and cover the earth, bared its fangs and brandished its claws as the pressure of an Ultimate Douluo erupted.

To Bibi Dong's left and right stood Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.

There were also Ghost Leopard Douluo, Spirit Kite Douluo, Snake Spear Douluo, Porcupine Douluo, and others. Nine soul rings flickered beneath their feet, radiating icy killing intent.

Crack—!

With a deafening crash, the protective grand formation that the Noumenon Sect had been so proud of collapsed with a thunderous roar merely from Bibi Dong releasing her pressure!

Pfft—!

The backlash from the shattered formation caused countless Noumenon Sect disciples below to spray blood and collapse to the ground.

"Wuhun City... an Ultimate Douluo..."

Du Bushi no longer possessed the arrogant madness he had displayed when attacking Wuhun City. The blood and qi in his chest still churned violently, and his face had darkened to the extreme.

"Du Bushi, did you truly think Wuhun City was a place you could enter and leave whenever you pleased?"

Bibi Dong looked down at Du Bushi from above. There was not the slightest trace of pity in her purple-black eyes, only cold, bone-piercing killing intent.

"Since you dared to lead people in an ambush against my Wuhun City, then today, you must be prepared to bear my wrath!"

"Y-you... what exactly do you want?!"

Du Bushi roared through gritted teeth.

"My Noumenon Sect has endured for ten thousand years and possesses a profound foundation. If you truly insist on fighting to the death, even if this old man must detonate his Body Martial Soul, I will never let you leave unscathed!"

"Fight to the death? With your mere ninety-eighth rank?"

A cruel sneer curled across Bibi Dong's lips. She did not even release a soul skill, merely pressing down gently with her jade-like hand.

Boom!

The purple-black Death Domain descended instantly, completely sealing off the space within dozens of miles.

"Today, I will make everyone in the world see clearly."

Bibi Dong's voice was like a demonic cry from the depths of hell, echoing across the skies of the entire Heavenly Soul Empire.

"The consequences of offending my Wuhun City!"
