Tang San stared at Bo Saixi with bloodshot eyes and asked through gritted teeth:
"Senior Bo Saixi, what should I do, then? Am I supposed to leave Xiao Wu unavenged? Am I supposed to let my Soul Bone be taken for nothing?!"
A sacred light flashed in Bo Saixi's eyes, and her tone was solemn. "Now, you must possess the power to contend with a deity."
"Tang San, you have potential and talent. As long as you are willing to stay, undergo Lord Sea God's divine trials, and inherit the Sea God's divine position."
"In the future, not only will you be able to slay Bibi Dong with your own hands, you may even... have a chance to resurrect your beloved."
"Resurrect Xiao Wu?!"
At those words, a brilliant light instantly burst from Tang San's despairing eyes.
"Senior, is what you said true? As long as I become a god, I can resurrect Xiao Wu?!"
"The power of a deity is beyond mortal imagination," Bo Saixi said calmly.
"As long as you become the true Sea God, resurrecting a Soul Beast is not impossible."
Bibi Dong is the Rakshasa God's successor. Only by inheriting the Sea God's divine position and becoming a true god myself...
Can I defeat her in the future, reclaim my Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone, and avenge Xiao Wu.
"All right!" Tang San clenched his fists. "Senior Bo Saixi, I am willing to undergo Lord Sea God's divine trials. No matter how difficult it is, I will become a god!"
The Firmament finally began taking stock of Ye Wuchen.
[The continent's finest master and finest disciple were the same person-Ye Wuchen.]
The instant those enormous words appeared, everyone from Spirit Hall's Consecrated Elders to the imperial families of the two great empires was shocked.
One person had actually claimed both honors: "finest master" and "finest disciple."
Immediately afterward, detailed information about Ye Wuchen began appearing on the Firmament, one item after another.
[Name: Ye Wuchen.] [Age: 24.] [Martial Soul: Heavenly Snow Woman (Ultimate Ice).] [Level: Level 90 Quasi-Titled Douluo (has condensed yin-yang complementary dual soul cores).] [Soul Ring configuration: yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, red, red.]
After reading the information revealed on the Firmament, the entire continent instantly erupted.
"A twenty-four-year-old level 90 Quasi-Titled Douluo?! How is that possible?!" In Spirit City, Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
"When I was twenty-four, I had only just broken through to Soul Emperor."
"That's not all. Look at his Soul Ring configuration. His seventh and eighth Soul Rings are both hundred-thousand-year red Soul Rings. This completely defies the accepted principles of the Soul Master World!"
"And what are those 'yin-yang complementary dual soul cores'? Why have I never heard of them?"
Countless cries of astonishment rang out in every corner of the continent.
Ye Wuchen's heaven-defying information shattered every Soul Master's understanding.
Yet the Firmament's review had only just begun.
As the images shifted, Ye Wuchen's legendary past unfolded before the world.
[Ye Wuchen was not a native being of the Douluo Continent, but a transmigrator from another world called 'Blue Star.'] [He was born in the Far North, where he was rescued amid the ice and snow by its ruler-the Snow Empress-and taken as her disciple.] [Under the Snow Empress's attentive guidance, Ye Wuchen awakened a top-tier Martial Soul of the same origin as the Snow Empress-the Heavenly Snow Woman.]
The image on the Firmament changed, revealing an exquisitely beautiful little boy trudging with difficulty through the wind and snow that filled the sky, following behind the peerlessly magnificent Snow Empress.
[At the age of ten, relying on his foreknowledge as a transmigrator, Ye Wuchen led his master, the Snow Empress, to successfully locate a rare cave of 'Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow.'] [This not only greatly increased the Snow Empress's cultivation, but also allowed her to successfully survive the extremely perilous seven-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation.] [Ye Wuchen also shared some of the precious Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow with the Far North's second-in-command-the Ice Empress-helping her successfully survive her four-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation.] [It could be said that the cultivation these two peerless rulers of the Far North possessed today was inextricably linked to Ye Wuchen's help.]
At this, Gu Yuena, who stood beside the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest, could not help turning to glance at the Snow Empress and Ye Wuchen beside her, a flash of understanding crossing her purple eyes.
No wonder the Snow Empress doted on this human disciple so much.
As it turned out, not only was Ye Wuchen exceptionally gifted, but he had also rendered such an immense service to the Far North.
The images on the Firmament continued to shift, and Ye Wuchen's growth left people dumbstruck, as though he had been using cheats.
[At twelve, Ye Wuchen's cultivation reached the peak of level 39 Soul Elder.] [That same year, he left the Far North to gain experience and successfully discovered one of the three legendary treasure troves deep in Sunset Forest-the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well-as well as the many peerless immortal herbs growing within it.] [He struck a bargain with Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, offering to cure his poison in exchange, and successfully took possession of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.] [Afterward, Ye Wuchen consumed 'Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew,' greatly enhancing his spiritual power. He also consumed the two immortal herbs of opposing extremes, 'Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass' and 'Infernal Delicate Apricot,' simultaneously, and used the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to complete the Ice and Fire Golden Body, transforming his physique down to the very bones.] [Relying on his powerful physique and spiritual power, the twelve-year-old Ye Wuchen broke the limits of the Soul Master World when he advanced to Soul Ancestor, successfully absorbing a ten-thousand-year fourth Soul Ring!]
"A twelve-year-old Soul Ancestor? A ten-thousand-year Soul Ring as his fourth?!"
On Sea God Island, Tang San, who had only just sworn his oath, turned deathly pale as he watched the Firmament.
He had always taken pride in his talent and twin Martial Souls, believing himself to be one of the continent's foremost geniuses.
But now, looking at Ye Wuchen's history on the Firmament, the talent he took such pride in seemed to have become a joke.
When he, Tang San, was twelve, he had only just broken through to level 30 and was still smugly congratulating himself on absorbing a two-thousand-year Soul Ring.
Yet Ye Wuchen had already absorbed a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring and completed the Ice and Fire Golden Body.
"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well... immortal herbs..." Tang San stared at the Firmament, extreme jealousy and resentment appearing in his eyes.
How wonderful would it have been if those immortal herbs had been my own fortuitous opportunity?
The Firmament's review did not stop because of everyone's shock. Instead, it dropped an even heavier bombshell.
[At seventeen, Ye Wuchen's cultivation reached the peak of level 69 Soul Emperor.] [That year, relying on his astonishing comprehension and ultimate control over the ice attribute, he successfully condensed the first soul core in Soul Master history within his lower dantian-the Ultimate Ice soul core!] [The formation of his soul core brought a qualitative leap in the quality and recovery speed of his Soul Power, opening an absolute gulf between him and ordinary Soul Masters.] [The following year, the eighteen-year-old Ye Wuchen successfully broke through to level 70, becoming a Soul Saint.] [That same year, while traveling the continent, he met Shui Bing'er, a gifted young woman with the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, at Skywater Academy and took her as his disciple.]
The image on the Firmament froze on Ye Wuchen, dressed in white, standing with his hands behind his back.
It showed him smiling as he handed Shui Bing'er a crystal-clear ice-crystal jade pendant.
