Ice Dragon King's Remnant Soul

Sunset Forest.

"Master, the ruler of Sunset Forest is a hundred-thousand-year Death Spider Emperor."

In Sunset Forest, Chu Yuan and Di Tian stood quietly in midair.

The ruler of Sunset Forest Di Tian spoke of, the hundred-thousand-year Death Spider Emperor, was precisely the ninth soul ring of Bibi Dong's first martial soul, the Death Spider Emperor.

"Don't worry about it yet. I'll take you somewhere first. That place concerns the fall of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King of our Dragon Clan."

Upon hearing this, Di Tian abruptly raised his head, his eyes filled with shock.

"Uncle Ice, Uncle Fire... Master, do you know where they fell?"

Back then, Di Tian had also spent time in the God Realm. However, when the Dragon God met with disaster, he had still been a junior, so the elders of his clan had sent him down here.

Chu Yuan nodded and looked toward a valley within Sunset Forest.

"Follow me."

As soon as he spoke, Chu Yuan flashed away and appeared above the valley in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Di Tian hurriedly followed.

After arriving above the valley, Di Tian frowned at the sight below.

"Master, the Soul Power concentration in this valley is at least three times that of the outside world."

Such an enormous difference in Soul Power concentration could only mean one thing: there had to be a great treasure within this valley!

Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be such a massive disparity in Soul Power concentration from the outside world.

"Within this valley lies the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, known as a treasure basin. This Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was formed from the residual origin power left behind after the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King fell."

Chu Yuan raised one hand slightly, Soul Power surging in his palm. The next moment, the mist created by the mingling springs above the valley instantly dispersed.

Once the mist dissipated, the scene within the valley was fully revealed.

At the center of the valley lay a circular pool roughly a hundred meters in diameter. The spring water was divided into icy blue and fiery red, meeting at the center in a distinct boundary without encroaching upon one another. Like two fish slowly chasing each other, the icy blue side exuded biting cold, while steam billowed from the fiery red side.

All around the spring grew strange flowers and exotic herbs of every shape and form, each emitting faint Soul Power fluctuations.

Di Tian looked at the scene in the valley below, his hands slowly clenching as sorrow appeared in his eyes.

"Uncle Fire Dragon King and Uncle Ice Dragon King's bodies were actually on Douluo Continent all along. More than a hundred thousand years have passed, yet I never noticed a thing!"

Di Tian fell into deep self-reproach. The bodies of the two uncles who had cherished him had remained unburied for so long after their fall.

If he had sensed even the slightest anomaly, his two uncles' remains would not have gone so long without burial.

"This is not your fault. The bodies of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King are hidden within a space beneath this spring. It is only natural that you could not detect them."

Even Chu Yuan could not have sensed them, much less Di Tian. Fortunately, he knew the plot and the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Di Tian nodded guiltily. It was normal that he could not detect them, so was it not equally normal for his master to be able to?

Chu Yuan said nothing more and plunged directly into the center of the spring, with Di Tian following close behind.

The water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well possessed formidable power. Even a Titled Douluo would suffer considerable injury from touching a single drop.

Yet the spring water could not harm Chu Yuan's terrifying physical body in the slightest, and even Di Tian could withstand it head-on.

The farther down they went, the more terrifying the spring water became. Chu Yuan felt no difference, but Di Tian's body began to show burn marks one after another.

However, he felt no discomfort whatsoever. Instead, he grew increasingly excited.

The energy within this spring water gave him an extremely familiar feeling.

Setting aside the searing heat and piercing cold of the water, being immersed in it made him feel as though he had returned to the days in the God Realm, when he had been cherished as a junior.

And that was precisely proof that the remains of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, his two uncles, truly lay within the space beneath this spring.

After an unknown amount of time, a dazzling white light appeared before Chu Yuan and Di Tian. The scene before them instantly vanished, replaced by a world where there was nothing but white.

After a long while, once their vision returned to normal, the sight before them suddenly opened up.

The dark spring water that had surrounded them disappeared.

Before them lay only two enormous dragon-shaped corpses, stretching so far that their ends could not be seen. Directly before the corpses, two clusters of light radiating faint halos floated quietly in midair.

Thud!

The sound of knees striking the ground rang out. Beside Chu Yuan, Di Tian dropped to both knees, his eyes filled with tears.

After a while, once Di Tian had calmed down, Chu Yuan walked up to the two corpses and reached out, drawing the two light clusters into his hand.

The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King had been Divine Beasts. The soul bones they left behind after falling were naturally divine bones. However, Chu Yuan had no use for them; fundamentally, he was not human.

"These are Uncle Ice Dragon King's and Uncle Fire Dragon King's divine bones."

Di Tian stared at the two divine bones in Chu Yuan's hand. Feeling the familiar aura emanating from them, he could not conceal the grief in his heart.

"You should keep them." With that, Chu Yuan casually handed the divine bones to Di Tian.

Just as Di Tian reached out to receive the two divine bones and was preparing to store them properly, an impossibly weak voice suddenly rang out.

"This aura... are you little Di Tian?"

The voice was extremely hoarse and so feeble that it sounded like someone at death's door.

Hearing that familiar voice, Di Tian's body shuddered. He looked toward the divine bone in his hand that radiated blue light, and even Chu Yuan turned his gaze toward it.

"Uncle Ice Dragon King, is that you?"

As Di Tian asked, Chu Yuan extended his spiritual power into the divine bone.

Very quickly, through the feedback from his spiritual power, Chu Yuan saw an extremely blurry wisp of soul. Yet even though it was indistinct, he could tell that it was a pure-blooded True Dragon.

Moreover, the origin power of that wisp of soul was exactly the same as the origin power within this divine bone.

"Child, it really is you!"

Upon hearing Di Tian's voice, the owner of that voice was visibly more excited.

"It seems the Ice Dragon King did not truly die. Instead, he drew his remnant soul into this divine bone. Since his soul was fundamentally a divine soul, it was able to endure for so long without dissipating."

The Ice Dragon King's method was the same as the one the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King would use later.

The only difference was that the Ice Dragon King possessed a divine soul, allowing him to persist longer.

"Good! Good! Good! Uncle Ice Dragon King, you are not truly dead. This is wonderful!"

Tears streamed down Di Tian's face. Though he was the renowned clan leader of the Black-Eyed Golden Dragon Clan and the Beast God of more than eight hundred thousand years, in the eyes of Dragon Kings like the Ice Dragon King, he was still merely a junior who needed their care.

"Little Di Tian, don't cry. Tell me, how is the Dragon Clan now? And the one beside you—why is the purity of his bloodline so powerful?"

By the time the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King were born, Dragon Kings like them had long since fallen.

Although he could sense the Dragon Clan bloodline within Chu Yuan, he did not understand why Chu Yuan's bloodline was so powerful, even slightly stronger than that of Dragon Kings like them.
