" The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings was First-Level God in the Divine Realm. Even though he eventually perished on this Douluo Continent, he would not be easily affected by the laws of this continent, and therefore would not produce Soul Ring or Soul Bone."

"However, as time went by, the original power of the two Dragon Kings gradually weakened, and they were eventually eroded by the consciousness of the Douluo Continent."

"These two dragon bones are not Soul Bone, but rather a type of External Soul Bone."

"They're useless to me, so I'll give them to you as a token of my gratitude for bringing me here."

Looking at Gu Yuena's calm gaze, Kong Xuan had not expected to gain such a reward.

He brought Gu Yuena here without any particular purpose; he simply wanted to strengthen cooperation between the two sides.

Seeing that Kong Xuan did not reach out to take the Soul Bone, Gu Yuena continued, "These two dragon bones come from two Dragon Kings. I know they won't bring much improvement to God King, but they are still a small token of our Soul Beast Clan's goodwill."

Kong Xuan knew his own situation best. Although he did indeed possess the power of the God King, it was, after all, borrowed power.

For him now, the boost these two dragon bones could provide was enormous.

He abandoned all restraint and quickly reached out to take the two dragon bones from Gu Yuena's hands.

However, on the surface, he remained expressionless, forcibly calm, and displayed the composure befitting a " God King ".

Feeling the two completely opposite forces in his hands, Kong Xuan's heart still beat a little faster.

Kong Xuan then smiled and said, "Then I'll accept this gift!"

Gu Yuena then suggested, " The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings's source power is right here, so it would be best to fuse the Soul Bone here directly."

Despite his eagerness, Kong Xuan did not immediately begin the fusion process.

He remembered that in the original story, the palm bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear were not something that ordinary Soul Master could fuse with, but now these were the claws of two Dragon Kings!

Kong Xuan is essentially only a level 62 Soul Emperor. Even though his physical strength is comparable to that of Titled Douluo, he is not sure if he can successfully fuse these two dragon claw bones.

Revealing our true strength is a minor issue; the real problem is the backlash and injury from a failed fusion.

Fortunately, Kong Xuan was not alone; he immediately sought help from the two teachers in the Sea of Consciousness.

"You've got some really good luck, kid. You even managed to get the Dragon King's claw with External Soul Bone."

Yun Ming sighed, "Even Titled Douluo might not be able to successfully fuse with it, but you should be able to."

Electrolux chuckled and said, "That's right. This Super Divine Artifact deep within your Sea of Consciousness possesses suppressive power, which should help you suppress the restless and violent energy during the fusion process."

Kong Xuan's eyes lit up after hearing what the two teachers said.

The wisp of primordial power from the Sea-Calming Divine Needle Iron suppressed the Snow Empress's leaking energy, helping her successfully transform into human form.

With this suppressive power, fusing with the Dragon King's Soul Bone should be a piece of cake.

Kong Xuan didn't waste any words, looked at Gu Yuena and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll merge now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Xuan sat down cross-legged.

Despite his increased confidence, he didn't dare to risk fusing the two dragon bones together. Instead, he chose to fuse the right palm bone of the Fire Dragon King first.

Guided by the Soul Power, a surge of fiery energy instantly entered Kong Xuan's right hand.

This was the heat of Ultimate Fire, so intense that even under the influence of Soul Power, it scorched him to the point of unbearable pain.

To gain strength, the pain along the way is a necessary experience, and Kong Xuan could only grit his teeth and persevere.

Fortunately, as the powerful and magnificent energy emanated from the deep Sea-Calming Divine Needle of Sea of Consciousness, the restless Soul Bone energy was instantly calmed down.

The burning pain from the Ultimate Fire that Kong Xuan felt also greatly lessened, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Just then, the consciousness belonging to the Fire Dragon King on the Soul Bone seemed to awaken, and a dragon's roar resounded in Kong Xuan's mind.

If it were any other Soul Master, they would probably be so shaken by that shout that their spirit would be unstable, and the fusion would fail.

However, with the suppression of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, "Kong Xuan's Sea of Consciousness remained as stable as Mount Tai, and was basically unaffected.

Gu Yuena, who was protecting Kong Xuan from the side, said softly in a voice infused with Divine Power, "He... is our friend."

As Gu Yuena spoke, Kong Xuan clearly felt the mental fluctuations belonging to the Fire Dragon King in the Soul Bone subside.

Although the fusion of the Soul Bone had only just begun, Kong Xuan knew that what followed would be a slow and steady process, and there would be no danger.

" Xuan'er, it seems you shouldn't have any problems fusing two Soul Bone at the same time."

Yun Ming's voice suddenly rang out. "According to the Shrek Academy's records, Tang San used this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to refine his Ice and Fire Golden Body."

"Although I don't know the specific method, if you were to fuse these two Dragon King Soul Bone simultaneously, the energy of their two Ultimate Attribute might be able to achieve the effect of Ice and Fire Golden Body."

Kong Xuan's journey from time to the present day to this point can be entirely attributed to Yun Ming and the Ruyi Golden Cudgel within his Sea of Consciousness.

However, Kong Xuan's own efforts cannot be denied. Since awakening his Martial Soul, he has never stopped cultivating for a single day.

Now that he has the opportunity to improve his physique, he naturally won't let it pass.

"Let's go then!"

Kong Xuan laughed heartily in his Sea of Consciousness, and then, guided by his Soul Power, he began to fuse with the Ice Dragon King's left palm bone.

This action startled Gu Yuena, who was protecting her, but she quickly regained her composure.

Her gaze was fixed on Kong Xuan, who was fusing with his Soul Bone; she was actually quite curious about his current state.

She really couldn't tell whether it was a complete overhaul or a clone.

However, after such a long period of contact, even though the Soul Spirit technology has not yet been released, she has come to trust Kong Xuan Kong Xuan and regard him as a true partner.

But when she thought about the future, and that her enemy was the entire Divine Realm, Gu Yuena still felt that the road ahead was bleak.

She didn't know why Kong Xuan was always so optimistic, as if he was certain that what he was doing would succeed.

Perhaps it was Kong Xuan's persistence and belief that filled Gu Yuena with hope for the future.

Beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen had completed the absorption and fusion of the Blazing Gum and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Crystal.

The whole process went surprisingly smoothly. With the Snow Empress, the former Lord of the Far North, protecting them, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well itself having extremely pure energy, no mishaps occurred.

Seeing that the two had woken up and were in good condition, Snow Empress briefly told them that Kong Xuan and Gu Yuena had separated by space, but even she did not know their specific destination.

Time passed slowly, and the afterglow of the setting sun began to drape the valley in twilight, but Kong Xuan and the other person were still nowhere to be seen.

Although Kong Ling had confidence in her brother's strength, she couldn't help but feel a little worried since they were entering an unknown space.

Unable to contain herself, she walked to Snow Empress's side again, looked up at her with a hint of unease, and asked, "Sister Snow Empress, my brother and the others have been gone for so long and haven't come back yet. Could they have encountered some danger?"

Although Meng Hongchen didn't speak, she still cast a concerned glance at him.

Upon hearing this, Snow Empress's face, which always carried an icy and aloof air, surprisingly revealed a faint yet reassuring smile.

She said in a clear and firm voice, "There's no need to worry too much."

Her gaze drifted to the void where the spatial fluctuations had vanished, and she spoke, "On this Douluo Continent, what truly threatens them..."

The Snow Empress paused slightly, her tone carrying an undeniable certainty. "I'm afraid they are few and far between. Your brother's methods are far more unfathomable than you imagine, and don't underestimate the strength of the Lord of Star Dou, even if it's just an avatar."

Hearing Snow Empress's confident words, Kong Ling and Meng Hongchen's worries dissipated considerably, and they continued to patiently wait for the two to return.

This wait lasted for several more hours, until the moon was high in the sky, when the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well once again emitted slight spatial fluctuations.

Snow Empress, who had been resting with her eyes closed, was the first to open them. Her icy blue eyes reflected two figures that had appeared out of nowhere.
