Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 122: Ambush (Happy New Year, Everyone)
Just by looking at the appearance, Chen Ming felt that there might be a relationship between his Emerald Scorpion and the Green Phosphorus Scorpion.

Perhaps hundreds of thousands or even millions of years ago, the Ice Jade Scorpion clan was actually a descendant of the Emerald Scorpion. It was only because they mutated and acquired ice properties that they migrated towards the Far North. Finally, after countless years and countless generations, they completely lost their toxicity and became the Ice Jade Scorpion of today?
Logically speaking, the Ice Scorpion's spirit rings had extremely high requirements, and its spirit bones could not be absorbed without the ultimate ice attribute.

But the problem is, although I don't have ice attribute now, but for various reasons, it is not completely impossible for me to absorb the soul ring of the Ten Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion.

And considering the quality of the Ice Jade Scorpion and the power displayed by the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion spirit in Huo Gua's hand ten thousand years later, Chen Ming was also slightly tempted.

How about trying the Ice Jade Scorpion's spirit ring yourself?
But I need to balance ice and fire to obtain the ice and fire body refining of the Eight Anise Mysterious Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot.
If he absorbed the Ice Scorpion's spirit ring, with the ultimate ice quality, his martial soul would definitely gain a strong ice attribute in addition to poison and death.

Then I guess I won't have anything to do with Liehuo Xingjiao by then.
If he only ate one plant of Star Anise Ice Grass, he estimated that he could reach the level of ultimate ice, and should be able to obtain a strong cold poison from it, which seemed to solve the fundamental problem of the poison being weak in ice and fire.

“It’s not impossible”

"Master Yue, Master Gui, let's lead this scorpion soul beast to a farther place first, and then see if this scorpion soul beast has any ability to do it?"

"It's okay, just watch it."

Although the Far North is a holy land for ice attribute soul beasts, it can greatly increase the strength of ice attribute. And the scorpion, whose quality is estimated to be no less than that of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, must be strong under the bonus of the Far North.

However, after obtaining the seeds of the Qirong Tongtianju from Chen Ming, Ju Douluo's heart knot was partially untied, and relying on the resonance of his martial soul, he successfully broke through from level 94 to level 95.

Just like what Ghost Douluo said before, whoever breaks through first will surely be driven forward. So Ghost Douluo also broke through from level 94 to level 95.

The progress from level 94 to level 95 is much greater than the progress from level 93 to level 94. Not only did their soul power increase significantly, but even the quality of their martial souls also improved, becoming true super martial souls. The effect of the martial soul fusion skill was almost doubled.

Not to mention a mere ten thousand year old ice scorpion?
Even if there were a hundred thousand year old ice-attribute scorpion or two hundred thousand year old ice-attribute scorpions, the current Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo would not be afraid at all.

Well, at this time, human soul masters did not know the existence of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North.

The current Ice Emperor is about 97 years old. It is a ferocious beast that has survived three heavenly tribulations. Its strength is roughly equivalent to that of a human Titled Douluo at level 98. With the blessing of the Far North, it can fight a tie with a human Titled Douluo at level .

In fact, within the Ice Scorpion clan, there is not only the Ice Emperor, a ferocious beast-level existence, but also multiple hundred thousand year old soul beasts and ferocious beasts that have survived the heavenly tribulation.

However, those beings all lived in the core area of the Far North, and the Ice Emperor was busy doing something because the heavenly tribulation was about to come. Those hundred thousand year old soul beasts and fierce beasts had their own fixed territories, and would never run away casually even if they were beaten to death.

So basically, as long as it's not too extreme, hunting this Ice Scorpion really won't cause any big problems.

Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo discussed it for a while, and then Ghost Douluo went out. Relying on his concealment ability, he found a rift nearby where only a few ordinary thousand-year-old ice soul beasts lived. After some discussion, they prepared to lead them into the valley and then deal with them on the spot.

I don't know if Chen Ming has a connection with all kinds of valleys and canyons in this life, as if hunting for spirit rings is most likely to involve valleys and canyons. Ju Douluo took Chen Ming to hide in the canyon, while the agile Ghost Douluo angered the Ice Jade Scorpion and approached the canyon.

About three or four quarters of an hour later, Ghost Douluo led the Ice Jade Scorpion, which had become furious for some unknown reason, into the canyon.

Soul beasts that are ten thousand years old already have intelligence that is no less than that of humans, but the growth process of soul beasts always makes these soul beasts, which theoretically have the same intelligence as humans, behave somewhat naively, or even a little stupid.

The ice scorpion paused for a moment in front of the canyon, feeling that this canyon seemed to be a trap set by the enemy specifically for it.

However, as one of the three kings of the Far North, the Ice Scorpion clan is very proud.

This Ice Jade Scorpion had just passed the age of 10,000, and was at a stage where it had intelligence but could not let go of its pride. In simple terms, it was holding itself back and could not get off the stage no matter what.

This led to the fact that the Ice Jade Scorpion had clearly noticed that something seemed amiss. However, when it was thinking about retreating, it blocked its own path with the pride of the Far North as an excuse, and then went into the canyon headfirst.

If other older Ice Jade Scorpions were here and saw the choice of this Ice Jade Scorpion that just passed 10,000 years old, nine out of ten would give this little cub a loving pat on the head, allowing this little cub that just passed 10,000 years old to think quietly under the ice for a while.

But unfortunately, this Ice Jade Scorpion was the only one who came out of the core area of the Far North in pursuit of the vitality of heaven and earth. There were no other Ice Jade Scorpions around.

After entering the canyon, the young (?) Ice Scorpion discovered that the little bug that had been running away suddenly stopped. It raised its claws and pounded heavily on the ice. Dozens of icicles of different sizes quickly rose from the ice and stabbed heavily at Ghost Douluo.

Although the strength and performance of this move are very good, with the bonus of the Far North, ordinary Soul Sages would not dare to easily take on these icicles rising from the ground.

However, Ghost Douluo is, after all, a Super Douluo of the Agility Attack Department. The speed at which these ice pillars rise may seem extremely fierce in the eyes of ordinary people, but in his eyes it is just like a turtle crawling.

Ghost Douluo didn't even use his spirit ring. He just flashed his body slightly and dodged the icicles that rose from the ground and came behind the ice scorpion.

Before the Ice Scorpion could react, Ghost Douluo's third and fourth soul rings lit up, and his entire figure was suddenly divided into several figures.

Although each figure was very fragile, even the attack of a first-ring soul master could easily crush these separated figures. But each of these figures had the speed of a Title Douluo of the Agility Attack Department and half the strength of a Ghost Douluo.

Several Ghost Douluo launched attacks from different angles at the same time, aiming at the gaps between the carapaces of the Ice Scorpion and other vulnerable places.

Four of the Ice Jade Scorpion's eight legs were destroyed in an instant by Ghost Douluo's afterimage, and the scorpion's tail behind it was forced to drop down. Only a few afterimages that tried to remove the Ice Jade Scorpion's front pincers were barely destroyed by the Ice Jade Scorpion.
