Ice Extremity: Tracing the Origin

Zhu Zhuyun looked somewhat tense at this moment, because the endless black steel needles floating in front of Zhong Meng were exuding an extremely eerie and terrifying aura of death. Even though she was just watching, the pressure from this kind of death attribute that she had never seen before was too heavy. It was hard to imagine what kind of pressure Yu Tianshuang, who was fighting him in the training field, was currently enduring.

She thought her younger sister must be even more worried than she was, and with that in mind, she couldn't help but turn around to comfort Zhu Zhuqing. "Zhu Zhuqing, you...?" But just as she had prepared her words and emotions, she turned around and said a few words, only to find that the expressions on Zhu Zhuqing and the others' faces were so strange and complicated. There was no worry, fear, or tension, but rather a look like they were looking at a clown, staring at the lifeless Titled Douluo.

"I suddenly remembered, it seems that after the Soul Master Tournament, after Brother Tianshuang truly became Soul King, his limbs completely Dragon Transformation. Whenever there was a battle, he would basically start with close-quarters combat. It seems, it seems that it was from that time that he started fighting entirely on instinct, abandoning his mind..."

When Ye Lingling saw Yu Tianshuang on the stage draw that long-lost ice-blue longsword, she suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia, as if she had been through a lifetime. Originally, he mainly used sword energy and ranged attacks in his fighting style, but since the time of the Lost Track Grand Canyon, he has preferred melee combat after Dragon Transformation. This has also caused him to gradually abandon his ability to think and rely more on his fighting instincts.

Listening to the conversation of the group, Zhu Zhuyun suddenly remembered the cold and aloof man on the stage. He was the man who had shattered Clear Sky True Body with a single sword strike, and the man who had killed ten thousand soldiers with a single sword strike on the border of the empire. In terms of ranged attacks, his sword energy was truly devastating.

Shui Bing'er: "It's normal. Men, once they're exposed to this kind of hand-to-hand combat, it's hard not to get deeply involved and unable to extricate themselves. It's normal to be fascinated by this style of fighting, right, Lengleng..."

With a cold and aloof expression and a voice exuding a powerful aura, Shui Bing'er spoke to Ye Lingling in a serious tone, but Ye Lingling felt that there was a lot of ambiguity in her words. She didn't know if it was because her thoughts were too... too embarrassing, but she just couldn't understand it correctly and kept thinking in a wrong direction.

"Pah, Ye Lingling, how can your thoughts be so filthy? Sister Bing'er, she definitely didn't mean it that way. What are you thinking? But, but why is Sister Bing'er talking to me like this..."

Ye Lingling couldn't help but recall the intimate and embarrassing moments she shared with Yu Tianshuang. She secretly glanced at Shui Bing'er and, seeing that her complexion was normal, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhong Meng looked at the humanoid tyrannosaurus opposite him. He actually put away his Dragon Transformation Martial Soul, then raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air, producing a beautifully crafted ice-blue longsword. Although no Soul Ring appeared on it, he immediately recognized that this sword was Martial Soul, and a top-tier Tool Martial Soul of considerable quality.

Zhong Meng: "I didn't expect you to be Twin Martial Souls possessor. Oh right, I remember now, it's written in your file, but I still didn't take you seriously. I just couldn't recall it. However, you're now pulling out this Martial Soul without even a single Soul Ring attached. Are you hoping to defeat me with it? That's a bit too wishful thinking. Go!"

After expressing his feelings, Zhong Meng waved his hand, and countless black steel needles floating around him shot towards Yu Tianshuang with a "whoosh" sound as they flew like flowers scattered by a celestial maiden.

"So you have Twin Martial Souls like me? But judging from your appearance, you probably haven't cultivated Twin Martial Souls before, otherwise you wouldn't be fighting with only one Martial Soul. I doubt you can even seamlessly switch between them in the first step. This gives me some leverage in our next deal, but we'll have to see how much of an advantage Zhong Meng can give me at the negotiating table."

Unlike Zhong Meng, Ye Yuxuan was a true powerhouse, and she also possessed Twin Martial Souls. There was an unseen attraction between powerful individuals, and she didn't believe Zhong Meng could win, even though Yu Tianshuang was only a Soul Saint at the moment.

"Ice Heaven Frost Sword: Ice Extremity: Tracing the Origin!"

With the Frost Dragon Martial Soul removed, the two major amplifications, Frost Dragon Domain and Ice Empress's Blessing, disappeared. However, the Eternal Frozen Domain and Divine Slaughter's Domain were not affected by this restriction. Furthermore, the Ring Fusion, which allows Yu Tianshuang to unleash her true power, can be activated with just Divine Power.

Yu Tianshuang watched as countless black steel needles, exuding deathly aura, shot towards him, momentarily obscuring the azure sky and casting a massive shadow over him. Unperturbed, he slowly raised the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi in his hand, suspending it above his head, and then slowly swung the sword downwards.

This slow, deliberate movement left afterimages on Yu Tianshuang's arm, appearing quite eerie. Then, something truly unexpected happened: as Yu Tianshuang swung her sword down, holding it at chest level, she abruptly stopped. Without warning, the countless black needles that had blotted out the sky seemed to freeze in time, all stopping above Yu Tianshuang's head. Then, an icy blue light instantly appeared, restoring the azure hue to the world.

Zhong Meng: "What exactly is this? How did you do that?"

As the sky once again blossomed into azure, the Soul Power between Zhong Meng and the countless black needles abruptly vanished. Puzzled, he looked on and saw that all the black needles had turned into dazzling white powder, like fine snowflakes drifting in the wind. This breathtaking scene left him momentarily stunned.

"What a nice view..."

Ye Yuxuan's face was covered, so her expression couldn't be seen, but one could see from her bright, narrow eyes that she was staring intently at the fine snow and the man bathed in this beautiful scenery. Having lived in the Holy Spirit Cult since childhood, hiding from the Evil Soul Master within the cult, she had lived a life of darkness. Embracing the light and wanting to be under the blue sky at all times had always been her long-cherished wish, and the scene before her eyes captivated her for Jiujiu, likely to be etched clearly in her mind for the future.

Zhong Meng had no idea how Yu Tianshuang had done it, but just as he was recovering from the beautiful scenery before him, he saw Yu Tianshuang's hand, holding the sword horizontally, slowly and strangely slash down with afterimages, the tip of the sword pointing towards the ground. At that moment, he suddenly felt a chilling, icy power and a pressure that could kill him.

"Ah!!! Ninth Soul Skill: Death..."

Although Zhong Meng didn't know what kind of Soul Skill this was, he couldn't just stand by and watch himself be frozen, turning into dust like those black needles. The moment he felt his body being corroded by the frost, he mustered all his Soul Power. Purple, red, and black evil auras surged like a raging storm, resisting the inexplicable power that Yu Heavenly Frost Slash. Then he stretched out his hand, gathering all his power, wanting to release his Ninth Soul Skill in order to reverse the situation.

However, he still underestimated the power of Yu Tianshuang's sword. After only charging half of its power, he could no longer feel the connection of the Soul Power in his body. Even his blood stopped flowing, and only his gradually weakening consciousness remained.

Ye Yuxuan: "Have mercy!"

Having just recovered from the unprecedented beauty of the scene and calmed her shock, Ye Yuxuan saw Zhong Meng into an ice sculpture with a single blow, while Yu Tianshuang slowly raised her sword-wielding hand, preparing to finish him off like those black needles turned to dust. Without thinking, she instantly leaped onto the stage, stood in front of Zhong Meng, and anxiously spoke.

Ye Yuxuan: "Please stop. We have lost. From now on, the matter of the Slaughter City will be over. Of course, we will also make compensation. Don't rush to refuse. I believe that this item can save his life for you."

Seeing that Yu Tianshuang completely ignored her request, Ye Yuxuan was so anxious that she almost cried. This person's strength was much stronger than she had estimated. She was only a level 95 Titled Douluo like Zhong Meng, and he could kill Zhong Meng so easily with a single sword strike. Killing her would be no problem for him either. This was something she had not anticipated at all.

She had no choice but to use what she wanted to use as a bargaining chip to save Zhong Meng's life, which made her somewhat reluctant. In her original plan, if Yu Tianshuang was no match for Zhong Meng, she would simply kill him. With him and the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire being two Titled Douluo, she really didn't take Shui Bing'er and the others seriously. Even if it would cause trouble later, even if the Spirit Hall found an excuse to retaliate, they would have a reason.

If the two are evenly matched, then this item can be used as a bargaining chip. A young, powerful individual is qualified enough to be her trading partner.

However, this situation was unexpected. Yu Tianshuang's strength was so terrifying that she had no choice but to grit her teeth and give away the items for free, allowing him to keep Zhong Meng. The Holy Spirit Cult had just established a connection with the Star Luo Empire and was still in the process of rapid development. Losing a level 95 Titled Douluo was unacceptable to her, especially since Zhong Meng was her own uncle.

Yu Tianshuang: "I'd like to see what you can offer that's valuable enough to make me spare a Titled Douluo, especially one who's Evil Soul Master."

Seeing the anxious look on the masked woman in red opposite her, Yu Tianshuang did not sheath her sword. She looked at her Lengleng, as if she would cut her down along with her if she was not satisfied with the conditions she offered.

"Haha, Brother Tianshuang, don't be so angry. Don't worry, even if the Imperial Advisor can't give you something you're satisfied with, as the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire, I can provide you with anything you desire on this land..."

The emperor of the Star Luo Empire was no fool. Although his personality had been somewhat volatile due to practicing the Evil Soul Master's techniques, he had already gone all in in the face of the current situation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have started practicing the Evil Soul Master himself. He had no choice but to place all his bets on the Holy Spirit Cult.

"Yes, it's the cultivation secret method for Twin Martial Souls!"

Ye Yuxuan knew that with Yu Tianshuang's talent and the fact that he possessed as many as three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, he must also have a lot of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. He wouldn't care about ordinary things, so he simply threw out his last trump card. She believed that any person with Twin Martial Souls would find this irresistible.
