Chapter 196 The Power to Change the Weather, Several Dangerous Places to Avoid If Possible
This sudden turn of events startled Dugu Bo, who was sitting on the shore reading a book. He stared in astonishment at the scene before him, rubbing his eyes in disbelief. The already frigid spring water had Ice Seal? This was truly bizarre.
"Could this be another commotion orchestrated by Jun Yi?"
Dugu Bo murmured to himself. He clearly remembered Jun Yi's Martial Soul. This Martial Soul had the special effect of controlling ice elements, and Jun Yi jumped directly into the cold pool as soon as he arrived. So this incident must have been caused by Jun Yi.
At this moment, Jun Yi, standing at the bottom of the pool, was startled by the magnificent sight before him. He had only released thirty percent of his Soul Power, yet he hadn't expected it to freeze the entire Extreme Cold Yin Spring. What did that mean?
Immediately afterwards, Jun Yi's mind moved, and the ice above his head vanished instantly, as if it had never existed at all. This was simply unbelievable.
"This is too outrageous! How can there be such a big difference between Awakening and Awakening Devil Fruit abilities?" Jun Yi exclaimed in surprise.
" The Ice Dragon King was First-Level God in his lifetime. It's only natural that the host would experience such an improvement after absorbing its remnant soul," the system replied calmly.
"I understand that principle, I'm just a little surprised by the contrast."
Jun Yi felt the enhancement brought to him by the Ice-Ice Fruit. Now, he could move freely within the Extreme Cold Yin Spring without releasing any Soul Power.
"I've already absorbed the remnant soul of the Ice Dragon King. As for the Divine Power contained in the dragon bones, I won't absorb it. I don't want to destroy this auspicious place of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, since it now belongs to Grandpa Dugu," Jun Yi murmured to himself.
" Xiao Yi, are you there? Why have you been gone for so long without showing your face?"
Suddenly, Jun Yi's Observation Haki detected the shouts. At the same time, Jun Yi also sensed an aura on the shore, which was none other than Dugu Bo.
Jun Yi took a sudden step, and ice surged up from beneath his feet, propelling Jun Yi upward. Soon, Jun Yi emerged from the bottom of the pool, where he saw Dugu Bo sitting upright not far from the Extreme Cold Yin Spring.
When Dugu Bo saw that Jun Yi was unharmed and in no serious condition, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You didn't come out for so long, and this cold pool inexplicably froze over just now. I was worried that something had happened to you."
"Don't worry, Grandpa Dugu, I'm fine. I just had some good fortune at the bottom of the cold pool," Jun Yi replied with a smile.
"What kind of opportunity was it? Can you tell this old man about it?" Seeing that Jun Yi was alright, Dugu Bo lay back in the chair and asked with a smile.
"Simply put, my Martial Soul has also evolved."
After saying that, Jun Yi slowly raised his hand and pointed to the sky. The originally bright sky was instantly covered by dark clouds, and then the temperature in the air dropped sharply.
"This is?"
Dugu Bo stared at the sky in shock, then he clearly saw a snowflake suddenly float in the sky, one, two, three, and then a whole sky full of snowflakes fluttering down...
These snowflakes fell in the woods, in the grass, between the rocks, and on the soil, and everything was covered with a crystalline luster.
Just then, Jun Yi snapped his fingers, and the next second, the dark clouds dispersed, covering the ground, and the snowflakes that had been dancing in the sky melted away, and everything returned to normal.
"This is one of the Awakening abilities I just acquired: controlling the weather, causing snowflakes to fall and covering everything in ice and snow. Anything covered by snowflakes will also be directly under my control," Jun Yi explained slowly.
"This ability is just too abnormal. If it were an ordinary person, I would be so surprised by this Soul Skill that I wouldn't be able to move. But when this ability appears on you, I feel that it makes sense in a strange way." Dugu Bo joked from the side.
Jun Yi started to gloat, " Grandpa Dugu, I'll take that as a compliment."
As he spoke, Dugu Bo took out a long chair from his Soul Tool and placed it beside him, saying to Jun Yi, "Come, Xiao Yi, sit down."
"I'm not doing it anymore. I'm about to leave," Jun Yi waved his hand and replied.
Dugu Bo looked at Jun Yi curiously and asked, "Leaving already? Are you going back to class?"
"Attending class is out of the question, absolutely out of the question." Jun Yi put on a resolute expression and said, "A man's ambition lies in all corners of the world; how can he be confined to a small academy?"
Dugu Bo looked at Jun Yi, nodded slightly, and said, "So, you're planning to leave the academy and travel the continent?"
"Of course, my current strength is enough to make my way in the Douluo Continent. I want to travel all over the continent to see this world and broaden my horizons," Jun Yi said resolutely.
"I see!" Dugu Bo pondered for a moment, then continued, "So where do you plan to go first?"
Jun Yi thought for a moment, then said mysteriously, "I've already made a plan, but I won't tell Grandpa Dugu yet."
"It's good that you have your own ideas. You're very brave, daring to go anywhere. However, I still want to remind you that there are several extremely dangerous places in the Douluo Continent. I must warn you."
As he spoke, Dugu Bo sat up from the bench, straightened his back, and said seriously to Jun Yi, "Firstly, I think the most dangerous place is the Mist Grand Canyon. It's a chaotic place, completely disorderly, and filled with countless killings. Besides those bandit groups, there's also a group of Evil Soul Master committing atrocities. Because the terrain and the forces there are complex, even the Spirit Hall can't completely control it. So if you really want to travel the continent, it's best to avoid that place."
After a pause, Dugu Bo continued, "The second dangerous place is the Star Dou Great Forest. As you probably know, there are two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the Core Circle Star Dou Great Forest: the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python. If anyone ventures into the Core Circle, they will be attacked by these two Soul Beast together. Even Titled Douluo could very well die on the spot."
"Thirdly, there is the Far North. That place is covered in ice and snow all year round, and it is extremely cold. Ordinary Soul Master simply cannot withstand it. Although there are no powerful Soul Beast in the Far North, its harsh environment alone is enough to deter Soul Master. However, your Martial Soul is related to ice, so that extremely cold environment should not be of much use to you, but you should still be careful."
"Finally, there are some rather special places, whose danger level is comparable to the three I just mentioned. However, generally speaking, even if you deliberately seek them out, they are very difficult to find. So I'll just mention them to you: Slaughter City and Demon Island. You don't need to deliberately learn about them; just remember to avoid them if you can."
