The surge in his cultivation level even gave him the illusion that he could elbow Poseidon.

"You're awake! How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?" Poseidon flashed a bright white smile, as if he were looking at some rare treasure.

Xiang Jun closed her eyes and felt it for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on her lips, "I feel better than ever before!"

Now Xiang Jun has finally confirmed the exact age of this Soul Bone —definitely over a million years old!

This Soul Bone not only increased his physical strength by more than three times, but even the Ice Element, which originally had the lowest attribute ratio, reached the level of the Ultimate Attribute, even surpassing the lightning element that had absorbed the Thunder God Fragment, and vaguely touching the threshold of the ice rule.

Even without the Poseidon shield, one can hardly feel the cold in this sealed room.

As for those two levels of Soul Power, they were actually the least surprising thing.

The only pity is that this Torso Bone has no active skills; all of them are passive Soul Skill that provide bonuses.

For example, the passive Soul Skill that comes with the Soul Bone is Ice Crystal Illusion Wings. While granting Xiang Jun the ability to fly, the aerial control ability of her first Soul Skill, Seagod's Descent, is not wasted. Instead, it is fed back into her flight speed by the Soul Bone.

With full acceleration, its flight speed even surpasses that of Sharp-Tailed Swift Soul Master of the same level!

"Exceptional talent, exceptional luck, and just as handsome as me. If only I had met you ten thousand years earlier, I wouldn't have passed on my divine position to that Tang Family Kid."

Poseidon smacked his lips, not forgetting to chirp a few words about the Sugar God King.

Ignoring Poseidon's complaining Poseidon, Xiang Jun turned to look at Ice Empress beside her and asked curiously, "Ice Empress, did you absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow? It seems you're about to break through the four hundred thousand-year mark."

"I gave her a few pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. After all, she'll be your bodyguard from now on, so you can't mistreat her."

Poseidon stretched and spoke again, "Now that you're awake, I'll head back. Don't summon me unless it's absolutely necessary!"

"Honestly, I treated you as my heir, but you treated me like a babysitter."

After saying that, Poseidon's figure vanished instantly.

Xiang Jun was already used to this; Poseidon's lazy and unserious personality was well-known in the Divine Realm.

Looking at Ice Empress, who was about to awaken, Xiang Jun felt a growing sense of anticipation.

Back when we were inside the Golden Ancient Tree, Elder Jin had solemnly promised to give me a big gift when I broke through to level 50!

As the Life Core on Douluo Star, Elder Jin must be quite surprised by the grand gift he mentioned, right?

Rumble--!!!

Just as Xiang Jun was lost in thought, a deafening clap of thunder suddenly pierced through the thick rock wall and reached his ears.

Um?

It thundered?

Xiang Jun was stunned. She was in a cave below the Cliff. How loud must the thunder be to reach her ears!

"Wait, could this be the Ice Empress's 400,000-year Heavenly Tribulation...?" Suddenly, Xiang Jun seemed to realize something and quickly looked at the Ice Empress beside her.

Ice Empress's long eyelashes were trembling slightly, clearly a sign that she was about to wake up.

Boom--!!!

A bolt of lightning struck the ground, instantly turning the once-sturdy chamber into a precarious situation, with countless tiny pebbles falling from above.

Wow, this Tribulation Lightning is too fierce!

Xiang Jun's lips twitched. Without thinking, she grabbed the little girl beside her, her Ice Crystal Illusion Wings silently unfolding behind her as she flew out of the cave.

When Xiang Jun arrived outside the cave, she was immediately stunned by the strange phenomenon in the sky.

The sky was completely covered by endless, dark clouds, with occasional flashes of lightning and deafening thunder.

Looking at the thunderclouds high in the sky, Xiang Jun suddenly felt an urge to fly into them, for some reason...

Um?

What am I thinking!

Xiang Jun was startled by her own thought. A lightning strike from a 400,000-year-old Ferocious Beast would be worse than being imprisoned for any Soul Master below the Super Douluo...

Just then, Ice Empress, whom Xiang Jun was holding, awoke from her meditation. However, the moment she opened her eyes, this terrifying scene came into view.

"Daily Heavenly Tribulation?!"

The little girl, who had just woken up, was terrified by this scene and instinctively shrank into Xiang Jun's arms.

"Hey, hey, hey, didn't you already absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow? Don't tell me you're still afraid of this Four Hundred Thousand Year Heavenly Tribulation." Xiang Jun stared with dead fish eyes, suddenly feeling that this little brat was really stupid.

"Oh right, I forgot." The Ice Empress blushed slightly. The fear of the Soul Beast against the Tribulation Lightning made her subconsciously forget that she had consumed the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow.

"So, are you confident?"

Xiang Jun was somewhat worried, not wanting the bodyguards she had painstakingly recruited to end up being scattered and disorganized.

"Don't worry, it'll only hurt a little at most!"

Ice Empress, brimming with confidence, patted his unremarkable little chest before breaking free from Xiang Jun's embrace.

With 400,000 years of cultivation, Ice Empress is here!

The Soul Power within Ice Empress surged wildly, completely reverting to the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion form.

The instant Ice Empress reverted to his Soul Beast form, the heavenly Heavenly Tribulation in the sky seemed to lock onto its target, and a terrifying bolt of lightning several meters in diameter crashed down!

Boom--!!!

The lightning struck Ice Empress's armor squarely, the terrifying force leaving a large, dark crater in the ground, surrounded by several cracks stretching for hundreds of meters.

Heavenly lightning is a punishment imposed on Soul Beast under the rules of the Divine Realm. This attack cannot be avoided, nor can it be neutralized by other ordinary means. Soul Beast can only choose to withstand it with their physical bodies and Soul Core.

If you survive, you will successfully transcend the tribulation; otherwise, your body and soul will perish.

As the smoke cleared, Ice Empress's figure appeared unharmed in Xiang Jun's eyes. However, the first bolt of lightning was just an appetizer. As time went on, the terror of the lightning grew stronger and stronger, and even the frequency increased significantly.

Looking at Ice Empress being constantly torn apart by heavenly lightning in the deep pit, Xiang Jun wished she could take his place.

If only I could do it... um?

Get that idea out of my head! What kind of wicked thought is that? I'm not Tang Wutong, I don't have so many strange fetishes!

Xiang Jun shook her head violently, but her longing for lightning grew stronger.

"Damn it... Snow Empress clearly told me this before, how could it have turned out like this?" Snow Empress gritted her teeth in the deep pit, clearly underestimating the terrifying extent of the 400,000-year Heavenly Tribulation.

Another bolt of lightning struck, and a slightly gruesome wound appeared on Ice Empress's normally hard carapace.

Before she could even catch her breath, a bolt of lightning struck down from the dark clouds, its terrifying aura causing Ice Empress's heart to pound wildly.
