Snow Woman Town, Changes to the Divine Aspect Martial Soul
The group headed to the nearest and only town they could reach, Snow Woman Town.
The most cheerful female student following Qian Xunling was named Cui Yurou. Her Martial Soul was the Jade Dolphin, and she was only eighteen years old with Soul Power Level of 33. Cui Yurou glanced at Qian Xunling with flirtatious eyes and smiled, "Ling, do you know that the name of Snow Woman Town comes from a legend? Would you like to know?"
"Alright, go ahead." Qian Xunling smiled, Bibi Dong, who was sitting next to her, immediately pouted and sulked, but she was also listening. Cui Yurou said, "Legend has it that the overlord of the Far North, the Heavenly Snow Woman, the Snow Empress, was born near Snow Woman Town. When she was born, what fell around Snow Woman Town was not snow, but ice crystals, a kind of ice crystals that could make even Soul Master feel refreshed and relaxed."
Unlike other Soul Beast, the Heavenly Snow Woman was born from the icy energy of the Far North. However, she could only be born in a place with Ultimate Ice, not here. But the Snow Empress might have passed through here. Qian Xunling said with slight surprise, "There's such a thing?"
"They also said that all the Soul Master who saw the Heavenly Snow Woman Heavenly Snow Woman were amazed by her appearance, and even called her the most beautiful woman in the Far North." Seeing Qian Xunling's interest, Cui Yurou was even more delighted and continued, "What's even stranger is that the Heavenly Snow Woman did not kill the human Soul Master who saw her, but instead let them go."
Since then, no more Soul Beast have appeared in Snow Woman Town and the surrounding area. Even Soul Beast that are passing through hesitate before entering.
At this moment, Shui Ling'er smiled and said, "Young Master Ling, these are just rumors, don't take them seriously. Snow Woman Town is located on the outer border of the Far North, where Soul Beast are scarce. In addition, Snow Woman Town is now the first outpost on the northern border of the Heaven Dou Empire, closest to the Far North, guarded by Soul Master and soldiers, which is why those Soul Beast dare not offend it."
Cui Yurou, holding Shui Ling'er's wrist, said coquettishly, "Teacher, can't you let me say a few more words?"
Then she turned her gaze to Qian Xunling, who smiled like a delicate young lady. Bibi Dong Qian Xunling immediately pulled on Qian Xunling's clothes, and Qian Xunling glanced at Bibi Dong.
Soon, amidst the white snow, the group spotted a small town that stood out starkly, dark yet glowing with a yellow light.
"We're here, Ling, we've arrived at Snow Woman Town." Cui Yurou released Shui Ling'er 'Qian Xunling wrist and ran towards Qian Xunling, wanting to take her hand, but Bibi Dong immediately grabbed Qian Xunling's right wrist. Qian Xunling frowned and said, "Little Spider, why are you pulling me?"
"Cold, scared." Bibi Dong lowered her head, somewhat shyly, trying her best to make her lie less obvious.
Qian Xunling said speechlessly, "How old are you? You're so timid. Don't follow me anymore."
"No," Little Spider replied, "Wherever Master Uncle goes, Little Spider will go."
Cui Yurou smiled awkwardly, then looked at Qian Xunling: "Ling, although Snow Woman Town is small, there are plenty of delicious things to eat."
"Really? Then I'll have to try it." Qian Xunling replied simply. Hearing her uncle's tone and expression, Bibi Dong's face showed grievance. She muttered to herself that her uncle was fierce to her, but very patient with other beautiful women. She was really unhappy.
"Hmm." Cui Yurou's face regained its joy. Shui Ling'er led everyone to the entrance of Snow Woman Town, and after showing their identification, they entered.
There were few pedestrians in the town, mostly soldiers on patrol, but the houses were full of people, mostly huddled together around a fire to keep warm.
Soon, Shui Ling'er found a fairly large inn, and the group brushed the snow off their clothes and went inside.
Upon seeing Shui Ling'er six beautiful female Soul Master, the male Soul Master who were having a lively time in the inn all turned to look, their mouths agape and drooling, but none of them dared to strike up a conversation.
Shui Ling'er looked at Qian Xunling and said, "Ling, this is the best inn in Snow Woman Town. Staying here tonight is a good choice."
"Okay." Qian Xunling nodded, then looked at the Little Spider and said, "You'll sleep in your own room tonight. I have something to do tonight, so you can't sleep with me."
"Huh?" Bibi Dong wanted to retort instinctively, but seeing the seriousness on her martial uncle's face, Bibi Dong's little face fell. "Okay."
"I didn't expect you two to have such a good relationship. If I didn't know you were uncle and niece, I would have thought you were brother and sister," Shui Ling'er said with a smile.
Bibi Dong retorted, "That's not true."
Everyone was puzzled as to why Bibi Dong's expression suddenly turned sour. Shui Ling'er was surprised, and Qian Xunling said, "Little Spider is just like that, don't worry about it."
Then Qian Xunling looked at the women and said, "I'm not free tonight, so you might have to wait another night."
"Ling... what are you saying?" Shui Ling'er wanted to retort, but her ears turned red, and the words stuck in her throat. Was she also expecting something? Thinking of this, her face turned even redder.
Cui Yurou and the others blushed, but they didn't think much of it, only feeling a pang of regret. Seeing this, Bibi Dong clenched her fists and muttered a cold snort, "Damn it."
Qian Xunling took the key and entered the room, then summoned her Divine Aspect Martial Soul.
The current Divine Aspect Martial Soul is different not only in its clothing but also in its eyes, which clearly possess a different spiritual charm.
However, Qian Xunling wasn't sure if it had truly gained sentience, but she was certain that the connection between the Divine Aspect Martial Soul and herself seemed to have deepened.
"What exactly has changed about you?" Qian Xunling was completely baffled. This subtle feeling originated after Qian Xunling obtained the Soul Ring of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but she had never truly understood it. Now that she had some free time, it was time to find out what was going on.
Qian Xunling slowly closed her eyes, following this subtle feeling to the body of the Divine Aspect Martial Soul, while a strange perspective entered Qian Xunling's brain.
"Is this the energy perspective within the Divine Aspect Martial Soul? I didn't know the Divine Aspect Martial Soul had such an amazing space." Qian Xunling saw a space within the Divine Aspect Martial Soul that seemed as large as the universe.
Is this really space? Qian Xunling was a little unsure, so she slowly let her energy perspective drift to various parts of the Divine Aspect Martial Soul's body.
As time went by, Qian Xunling finally understood why the Five Great God Kings wanted their Divine Aspect Martial Soul to become the next Divine Realm.
Qian Xunling abruptly turned her gaze back to her true form, then stared in shock at the Divine Aspect Martial Soul, before scoffing at herself, "So those five bastards saw through the fact that you have your own inner world so early on. As long as power continues to flow into your body, the space within you will grow larger and larger, and even the quality of your living space will improve. And I only realized it now."
However, Qian Xunling chuckled quickly, "But now I finally understand. Even if they inject all their divine power into your body, you will at most be subject to their control, but you will never be controlled by them, because your inner space is too vast. You can even absorb their divine power for your own use."
After calming down, Qian Xunling chuckled, "In that case, I won't have any worries when they come looking for me later."
However, Qian Xunling felt it was still necessary to make some preparations, since they all dared to prevent her from inheriting the Godhood right in front of her.
Who knows what else they might do, but that's all speculation for now.
Something seemed to have happened downstairs at the inn. Little Spider stood outside Qian Xunling's room, clenching his fists and raising them slightly, unsure whether to knock or not.
The door suddenly opened, Bibi Dong's tense face immediately relaxed, and she smiled, "Uncle-Master!"
"What are you doing? Didn't you say you weren't allowed to bother me?" Qian Xunling said irritably. Bibi Dong lowered her head and whispered, "Uncle-Master, many people down below are dying. Can you save them?"
