Douluo: Ant Power Breaks the Sky

The next morning, Shi Yi, Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er arrived at the gate of Wuhun City on time. From a distance, they saw Yue Guan and Gui Mei waiting there. Yue Guan smiled and greeted the three of them, "Xiao Yi, are you ready?"

Shi Yi nodded and bowed, with a respectful smile on his face: "Two seniors, I'm sorry to bother you again this time."

The ghost waved his hand and said calmly: "You're welcome. Since it's the order of His Holiness the Pope, we will naturally do our best to help."

The group did not delay any longer and quickly set off for the Star Forest.

Deep in the Xingdou Great Forest, dense trees blocked out the sun, and the air was filled with strong soul fluctuations. Shi Yi and others moved forward cautiously, and soon, Shi Yi slowly raised his hand and made a stop gesture.

"Don't move forward." Shi Yi whispered, looking around vigilantly, "I've sensed it. After the two seniors and Aunt Dong killed the two hundred thousand year soul beasts, the two Qianjun ants have occupied the central lake of the Xingdou Great Forest. My cultivation is the lowest, so I won't alert them. I will place bait here later, and the two seniors, take Bing'er and Zhuqing to avoid it and stay as far away as possible. Bing'er, take out the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei nodded, and Shui Bing'er took out a large piece of ten thousand years of black ice marrow from the soul guide. A strong chill instantly swept over everyone, and the air around them seemed to solidify.

Yue Guan looked at the piece of ten thousand years of black ice marrow, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "What a strong chill! I have never seen such a huge black ice marrow. If an ice attribute soul master uses it to practice, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort. Bing'er, are you willing to give such a good thing to those two Qianjun ants?"

Shui Bing'er smiled slightly, with a firm tone in her voice: "As long as I can complete the test of Lord Poseidon, these are nothing."

Then, Shui Bing'er used her mental power to ask Tian Meng: "Tian Meng, are these enough?"

Tian Meng's lazy voice sounded in her mind: "If they are really about to break through, these will definitely be enough. This is a treasure buried deep in the Far North. If it weren't for you, I could have eaten it for 700,000 to 800,000 years. If you come to me at that time, I will not only be able to accompany Bingbing for a longer time, but also watch the human world like now."

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but joked, "How about I let your Bingbing come to accompany you? Being my soul bone isn't a bad thing."

Tian Meng sighed, with a bit of helplessness in her tone: "Hey... Bingbing is not me. With her personality, she will not yield to you."

Shui Bing'er nodded, and understood. This was why her mother had told Shi Yi not to kill the Ice Jade Scorpion in the Far North. The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion had a strong desire for revenge, and she would personally kill anyone who dared to harm her people in the Far North.

"Okay, the aura of the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow has begun to spread. A large number of soul beasts will gather here soon. Let's leave first." Shi Yi said in a low voice, looking around vigilantly.

Everyone nodded and quickly disappeared into the distance.

The aura of extreme ice continued to spread in the forest, and soon, with the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow as the center, a layer of frost covered the surroundings. Sparse sounds also began to appear in the forest, as if countless soul beasts were gathering in this direction.

Shi Yi spread his spiritual power in secret, sensing that a large number of soul beasts were heading towards the direction of Wanzai Xuanbingsui. Even when Shi Yi and his companions were retreating, some soul beasts discovered them, but those soul beasts did not seem to have time to attack Shi Yi and his companions, and directly passed them and ran towards the direction of Wanzai Xuanbingsui.

"Let's wait here. We'll return after their fight is over." Shi Yi said with a smile, with some confidence in his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone felt a strong soul power fluctuation coming from afar. The fluctuation swept in like a tide, bringing with it a heart-pounding sense of oppression.

"It's started." Yue Guan said in a low voice, looking into the distance with a serious look.

Shi Yi nodded, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "Next, it depends on the performance of the two Qianjun ants."

Everyone held their breath and waited quietly. The soul power fluctuations in the depths of the forest became stronger and stronger, as if multiple powerful forces were colliding fiercely. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere, as if even time had slowed down.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly a deafening roar came from the forest in the distance, and then a powerful soul power wave swept over, as if even the earth was shaking.

"Have they broken through?" the ghost asked in a low voice, with a gleam in his eyes.

Shi Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile, and nodded, "Next, it's our turn to perform."

"Let's go!" Shi Yi shouted, and rushed towards the source of the soul power fluctuations as fast as lightning. Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er followed closely behind, while Yue Guan and Gui Mei hid in the dark like ghosts, ready to provide support at any time.

As the distance shortened, the soul power fluctuations felt by everyone became stronger. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood. Obviously, the fight between the soul beasts was over.

"Be careful, the central lake is ahead." Shi Yi reminded in a low voice, looking around vigilantly.

Sure enough, when they passed through a dense forest, the scene before them made everyone gasp.

The lake was dyed red with blood, and the surrounding trees had been uprooted. The surroundings were in a mess, and the scene was extremely tragic. In the center of the lake, two huge Thousand-pound Ant Kings were greedily devouring the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow. Golden lines had appeared on the surface of their bodies, and their aura was constantly rising.

"Sure enough, they have begun to break through. Should we take action?" Shui Bing'er said in a low voice, with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

As Shui Bing'er was talking, Shi Yi and the others noticed a heavy aura gathering above them. Everyone looked up at the same time, only to find that the sky above the Thousand-Tier Ant King was covered with dark clouds, with lightning flashing faintly, as if the heaven and earth were shaking for their breakthrough.

"This is... a heavenly calamity!" Yue Guan's voice came from the darkness, with a serious tone in his voice.

Shi Yi smiled slightly and said, "It seems that we have come at the right time. The heavenly tribulation has appeared and they have begun to break through."

"Do we have to wait for them to successfully overcome the tribulation?" Zhu Zhuqing asked in a low voice, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

Shi Yi nodded, and Tian Meng's voice rang in everyone's mind: "The power of the heavenly tribulation is extraordinary. Don't get too close. If they feel that this is a deadly situation, they may choose to self-destruct."

Hearing about the self-destruction, Shi Yi couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. With Yueguan and Guimei's martial soul fusion skills, they were not qualified to self-destruct.

At this time, the two Qianjun Ant Kings had already noticed Shi Yi and the others. Even though they sensed the familiar aura on Shi Yi, they did not stop eating. Tian Meng's voice sounded again: "Everyone, get ready. The heavenly tribulation is about to begin."

Just as he finished speaking, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly rolled up, and a thick bolt of lightning fell from the sky, striking directly at one of the powerful ant kings.

"boom--!"

Deafening thunder resounded through heaven and earth, the Thousand Jun Ant King let out a shrill roar, and the golden patterns on the surface of its body dimmed a little in an instant.

"It's started!" Shi Yi shouted in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the Thousand-Jun Ant King.

The power of the heavenly tribulation was far beyond everyone's imagination. Thunderbolts fell from the sky like angry dragons, madly striking the two powerful ant kings. Their bodies trembled constantly under the bombardment of thunder, but their aura became strange, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.

After the thunder disaster disappeared, the two Thousand-Tien Ant Kings completely burst out with a hundred thousand year-level aura and looked towards Shi Yi.

"Go!" Shi Yi shouted, and rushed towards the Thousand-Tier Ant King as fast as lightning. Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er followed closely behind, while Yue Guan and Gui Mei surrounded the Thousand-Tier Ant King from both sides, blocking his retreat.

"Two levels of static realm!"

In just a moment, the auras of Jue and Gui blended together. One black and one gold slowly blended together at this moment, forming a powerful force field. No matter how the two Thousand King Ants roared, they could not move. At this moment, they could not even self-destruct.

The two Thousand-Tier Ant Kings had just experienced a heavenly tribulation, and even their carapaces had not fully recovered. In the martial soul fusion technique of Jue Gui and others, they were completely unable to resist the siege of the crowd. Shi Yi's Wujian smashed into the head of one of the Thousand-Tier Ant Kings like a meteorite, making a dull roar.

"Click——"

The head of the Thousand-Tier Ant King shattered with a sound, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust. Seeing this, the other Thousand-Tier Ant King let out a desperate roar and struggled frantically in the field. Although Jue Gui Douluo's "Two-Level Static Field" almost blocked all of its movements, in extreme despair, its body actually trembled slightly, as if making a final resistance.

"Quick battle and quick decision!" Yue Guan and Gui Mei shouted at the same time, with a hint of urgency in their tone.

Before the two finished speaking, a clear phoenix cry suddenly pierced the sky, as if it came from the sky. Then, Shui Bing'er stood in the air, with an icy blue light in her hand shining brightly, like the ice and snow goddess from the far north descending.

"Ninth Soul Skill: Absolute Zero!"

As Shui Bing'er's ethereal voice sounded, the struggling Thousand-Tier Ant King was instantly covered by a thick layer of frost, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a huge ice sculpture. The ice sculpture was crystal clear, and the ferocious posture of the Thousand-Tier Ant King was frozen in it, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Shui Bing'er's figure slowly fell, and the ice-blue light in her hand gradually dissipated. Her face was slightly pale, and it was obvious that this attack consumed a lot of her soul power, but her eyes were full of determination and confidence.

However, just when everyone thought the battle was not over yet, something strange happened.

"Click - click -"

A subtle cracking sound came from the ice sculpture, and then cracks began to appear on the surface of the ice sculpture. However, this was not a sign that the Thousand-Tier Ant King had broken free from its restraints. Instead, due to the extremely cold temperature, the blood in the Thousand-Tier Ant King's body froze instantly, and the expanding ice spikes pierced its body from the inside. The blood-colored ice spikes pierced out of the ice sculpture like a sharp blade, completely destroying the entire ice sculpture.

"boom--"

With a muffled sound, the ice sculpture completely shattered, turning into countless ice crystals that scattered on the ground. The body of the Thousand-Tier Ant King also broke into pieces, without any sign of life.

Shi Yi and the others were shocked when they saw this scene. Shui Bing'er's "absolute zero" not only froze the body of the Thousand-Tien Ant King, but also completely destroyed its vitality from the inside. This extreme power of ice was chilling.

With the death of the two hundred thousand year soul beasts, the huge hundred thousand year soul ring slowly emerged.

After the battle, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Shui Bing'er released her martial spirit, her face slightly pale, but her eyes were full of excitement, and now it was time to reap the rewards.

Zhu Zhuqing also showed a rare smile and said softly: "Next, we need to obtain soul bones."

Shi Yi nodded, his eyes swept over the bodies of the two Thousand Jun Ant Kings, and then he called out Little Ant. As soon as Little Ant appeared, he quickly got into the body of one of the Thousand Jun Ant Kings. After a while, he held a soul bone that was shining with dark golden light in his mouth, and reluctantly handed it to Shi Yi. Shi Yi took the soul bone, gently patted Little Ant's head, and smiled, "Well done, go and eat it."

Then, he turned and walked towards the broken ice sculpture, searching carefully among the ice crystal fragments. Soon, another soul bone slowly emerged and was held in his hand. Shi Yi handed the two soul bones to Shui Bing'er, with a bit of apology in his tone: "Bing'er, although the properties of these two soul bones are not completely suitable for you, this is the only condition now, so you can only make do with them."

Shui Bing'er took the soul bone, her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness, but there was a hint of anger on her pretty face. She said softly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I should thank you, Xiao Yi. In fact, I am already very satisfied to have such a harvest. Fortunately, I am lucky that these two soul bones are exactly in the parts I lack."

Shi Yi smiled and took Shui Bing'er's hand, saying softly, "This is what I should do, Bing'er."

Zhu Zhuqing also came over, looked at Shui Bing'er tenderly, and said softly: "In this way, Bing'er should be able to complete the sixth test. It will bring us one step closer to the test of Sea God Island."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance, and Yue Guan said with some approval: "Not bad, ninth soul skill, with amazing power. Bing'er, your strength has far surpassed your peers."

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er bowed slightly towards Ju Gui and the others, and said respectfully: "This is also thanks to the help of the two seniors. Bing'er would like to thank you very much."

Gui Mei waved his hand and said calmly: "We all work together in the palace, there is no need to be so polite."

Yue Guan smiled and took over the conversation: "The mission is accomplished, and it's time for us to go back. This operation went more smoothly than expected, and we can go back and report to His Holiness the Pope."

Everyone nodded, and Shui Bing'er did not absorb the soul bone on the spot, but carefully put it away. After packing up, the group quickly left the Xingdou Great Forest. (End of this chapter)
