When the last glimmer of light sank into the body of Beiming Lieyang, a fifth spirit ring appeared upon him.
A brilliant red, the crimson light unique to a 100,000-year spirit ring rippled outward in circles beneath his feet.
"She really let him perform the sacrifice." Ice Emperor smacked her lips, still finding it somewhat hard to imagine.
Most soul beasts carried pride; even 10,000-year soul beasts were hardly willing to submit to humans, let alone 100,000-year soul beasts.
Some would even rather commit suicide than let humans obtain their spirit rings.
Yet that rabbit let the other party willingly sacrifice herself after just a few words?
"It's also because Xiaoyang seized upon her desire to avenge her mother that she completed the sacrifice."
Snow Emperor looked at that red spirit ring, her tone carrying a trace of a different meaning.
During the past few days, Xiaoyang had mentioned that this rabbit entered the human world to retrain.
She had claimed it was to integrate into human society and find the enemy who killed her mother.
Yet according to Xiaoyang's account, after she ran into a certain someone, she went off to date and make trouble, casting the revenge for her mother's murder completely to the wind.
Although Xiaoyang could always predict these things beforehand as if by foreknowledge, they had grown used to it.
It was probably the guidance of the gods once more.
Still, this rabbit at least retained the thought of avenging her mother, which was why she was willing to make the sacrifice.
The aura around Beiming Lieyang surged wildly as spirit power washed over his body, and as usual, a portion poured into his external spirit bone.
51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56.
As Beiming Lieyang attached more spirit rings, his own spirit power capacity grew, coupled with ultimate attributes, yet a 100,000-year spirit beast could only boost him by six levels at the 50th rank.
"Level 56. You really grow fast." Ice Emperor sidled over and stood on tiptoe, reaching out to stroke Beiming Lieyang's head, but then puffed out her cheeks right after.
Having absorbed another 100,000-year spirit ring, he had grown taller by a notch.
Beiming Lieyang looked at her puffed-up appearance, smiled, and reached out to hug her waist, lifting her up a bit. "Little Aunt, is this high enough?"
"Alright, you little baddie!" Ice Emperor glared at him, pinching his cheeks with both hands and kneading them relentlessly. "You think your little aunt is short, do you?"
"No, you're very cute when you're small."
"!!"
Ice Emperor's cheeks bulged as she viciously pinched his face.
Snow Emperor, standing to one side, reached out to stop her. "Binger, you mustn't bully Xiaoyang."
"Darn it, Xue'er, whose side are you on? You're always biased!"
Ice Emperor looked at Snow Emperor in annoyance. "It's always like this."
"But Binger, you're the one bullying Xiaoyang every time."
Ice Emperor rolled her eyes. "It seems that with this little baddie around, Xue'er stopped liking me long ago."
Hearing this, the corners of Snow Emperor's lips curved slightly without taking up the conversation.
"Little baddie, what are your spirit skills?" Ice Emperor changed the subject.
Beiming Lieyang straightened his hair, which had been ruffled by her. "Mysterious Ice Mark: Void Mysterious Ice energy purity, hardness, and self spirit power reserves increased by 300%.
One can use Void Mysterious Ice to leave a Mysterious Ice Mark, ignoring distance to instantly teleport to the marked location; the greater the teleportation distance, the more spirit power is consumed.
Void: Immune to all physical attacks, with a 50% reduction to energy attacks.
Soft Bone Rabbit Left Leg Bone grants teleportation and invincible golden body.
Teleportation: Can be performed within a hundred-meter range; greater distances consume more.
For every 10 levels spirit power increases, the teleportation distance doubles.
Invincible Golden Body: Enters a god-tier-and-below invincible state for three seconds, immune to all damage and control while doubling physical strength; for every 10 levels spirit power increases, the invincibility duration extends by one second."
Ice Emperor listened with her eyes glazed over. "A 100,000-year rabbit actually has this many outrageous spirit skills? Invincible Golden Body, teleportation, and Void? Why don't I have such overpowered spirit skills?"
Snow Emperor nodded as well. "The Soft Bone Rabbit is the most ordinary of soul beasts, yet she can derive so many powerful spirit skills. It's simply absurd."
"There's no helping it. This rabbit is just that overpowered, which is why I had her sacrifice herself." Beiming Lieyang spread his hands.
"Still, combined with the new spirit skills generated by the Void Mysterious Ice, it becomes even more interesting. If you toss Void Mysterious Ice in the four directions of southeast, northwest, you can freely teleport between those locations."
Ice Emperor suddenly grew excited. "If we put a piece of Void Mysterious Ice in the Far North and one here, can we teleport directly across?"
Snow Emperor also revealed a curious expression. Beiming Lieyang shook his head.
"Little Aunt, the Far North is too far from here. As I am now, there's no way I can teleport such a long distance. I must be able to perceive this mark within my spiritual power range in order to use it."
"However, what if the underground of the entire continent were buried full of my Void Mysterious Ice?"
Beiming Lieyang's mouth split into a grin. "Then I could infinitely teleport across the Douluo Continent."
He could also control whether or not to grant his Void Mysterious Ice's amplification to others.
If he didn't consent, even if others obtained a piece, it would just be a hard lump of ice.
Eaten?
Eating it would be even better; they could just wait to be controlled by him.
Moreover, eating it would create an addiction to this substance.
Only, he didn't employ this ability on those close to him, and could even cancel that effect.
He merely granted them amplifications.
As for outsiders, he wouldn't hold back on that account.
Of course, Ice Emperor was simply too gluttonous.
Even though Beiming Lieyang specially suppressed the addictive effect, it still couldn't withstand her craving for food.
Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor exchanged glances, their eyes lighting up simultaneously.
Ultra-long-distance teleportation—this was bound to be too terrifying.
"It really is absurd," Ice Emperor exclaimed.
"Now that we've got the spirit ring, it's time to return to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
"Mm, let's go, go, go!"
Ice Emperor pushed Beiming Lieyang along. Watching the two of them like this, Snow Emperor revealed a soft smile.
Binger was acting more and more like a child nowadays.
Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang San, who was in the middle of absorbing the Datura Snake spirit ring, snapped his eyes open.
"Pfft."
His whole body shook as a mouthful of blood sprayed out, splattering onto the soil before him.
"Where... where is this?!"
Returning to consciousness, Tang San looked around in a daze. A second ago, he had been swallowed by the spatial turbulence in the God Realm, and the next second, he appeared in this forest.
He looked down at his own hands.
They were too small, the joints slender and thin, with light calluses on the palms—the traces left behind by year-round manual labor.
This was the body of a six-year-old.
He abruptly turned his head, his gaze sweeping across his surroundings before locking onto a figure on the ground.
Ash-gray robes, a thin figure. The person collapsed on the ground had a greenish-black complexion and chapped lips.
"Guan... Gangzi?"
Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San stared at that face as countless distant fragments surfaced in his mind.
...I really have been reborn. And right now is... the moment I absorbed the Datura Snake spirit ring.
He clearly remembered that he had already been swallowed by the spatial turbulence in the God Realm, his consciousness torn into countless fragments, yet he had been yanked back by some power at the very last trace of sobriety.
I've returned to tens of thousands of years ago? Could it be that I didn't completely perish, but my soul was dragged back to the origin, landing in this body?
The corners of his mouth hooked up, carrying a trace of self-deprecating relief.
Back then I could cross over to the Douluo Continent after dying in the Tang Sect, and now getting caught in spatial turbulence I can still be reborn tens of thousands of years ago... This talent for turning misfortune into fortune hasn't been lost at all.
Just as he recalled more details, a feeble voice came from beside him.
"Li... Little San... Did you... did you successfully absorb your first spirit ring?"
Tang San looked down.
Yu Xiaogang was struggling to lift his eyelids, his voice full of concern.
Three days ago, he had been tortured relentlessly by those three rose boyband fellows, captured by them even after he deployed Luo Sanpao.
To make matters worse, with an external beast martial soul, injury feedback would also reflect back upon himself.
Especially that black, two-meter-tall brawny man, who possessed simply boundless stamina.
How much suffering had he endured these past few days?
He had been utterly depressed these last two days.
His pants kept bleeding.
Fortunately, while the heavens closed a door on him, they opened a window for him instead.
He had found a twin martial souls innate full spirit power disciple.
He could let this person become his experimental subject to verify his theories.
He wanted to let those foolish people know that his theory was invincible.
He would ultimately cultivate a powerful Title Douluo.
At all costs, he would destroy that rose boyband!
