Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 483 Royal Edict: Ling Luochen Dominates the Battlefield

"We succeeded!" Ye Yulin was extremely excited.

He never expected the raid to go so smoothly, eliminating Dai Hao and occupying the Mingdou Mountains. From then on, the Sun Moon Empire could advance or retreat as needed, and its position would remain undefeated.

However, just as he was rejoicing, an even larger ice wall suddenly appeared behind the many ice walls that had been broken open by the Sun and Moon Divine Needles.

The rays of the Sun and Moon Needles bombarded the ice wall, rendering it unable to display its previous destructive power.

The ice wall completely blocked the attack of the level nine soul tool, while the powerful rays of the Sun and Moon Divine Needle could only leave a mark on the ice wall.

"What?" Ye Yulin was shocked. What kind of ice was this? It could even block a level nine soul tool.

Could it be... Ultimate Ice? And it shouldn't be an ordinary Ultimate Soul Master's attack; it must be an Ultimate Ice attack from at least a Title Douluo-level expert to prevent the Sun and Moon Divine Needles from making a ripple.

When did such an unparalleled expert appear on the mainland?
"This ice, could it be...?" The Ling family elder stared blankly at the ice wall blocking his way, which gave him a sense of familiarity.

"Uncle Ye, you take Duke White Tiger and the clansmen and go first. Leave this to me!" Ling Luochen's voice came from behind.

This elder of the Ling family is named Ling Ye. He is the number one expert of the Ling family in this generation, an 87th-level Soul Douluo, and also the older brother of Ling Luochen's father, her uncle.

"Luo Chen!" Ling Ye turned to look at the sky and saw Ling Luo Chen holding a scepter, walking through the void towards them. Most terrifying of all were the nine spirit rings surrounding her—two yellow, two purple, two black, and three red. This caused Ling Ye to exclaim in surprise.

It hasn't been long since Ling Luochen left Xingluo, yet she has already become a Title Douluo and possesses three 100,000-year soul rings!

Ling Luochen nodded to his uncle, then turned to Ye Yulin, "Starry Sky Douluo, you injured my clansmen. Ling family, Ice and Snow Douluo Ling Luochen, requests your challenge!"

"The Ling family, the Ice and Snow Douluo?" Ling Ye looked at Ling Luochen in the sky, who was radiating an overwhelming and vast cold aura at the title level. His eyes held guilt, joy, and relief.

She felt guilty for giving up the child for the sake of her family, but also happy that the child had a better future after leaving. She was gratified that even now, the name "Ling Family" still appeared in her self-introduction.

"Ice and Snow Douluo, the titled Douluo of the Ultimate Ice!" Ye Yulin's face was as ugly as could be. He never expected that such a top expert would suddenly appear just when his grand plan was about to succeed.

"Thank you for saving us, Your Majesty Bingxue. All troops, obey my command and retreat with me to defend Yuming City!" Dai Hao did not hesitate at all.

Even though he had just escaped with his life, he did not show the slightest panic and immediately and calmly gave the order.

He knew that Ling Luochen's arrival might improve the situation slightly, but it wasn't enough to turn the tide. The Star Luo Empire was still far from being a match for the Sun Moon Empire.

"Don't even think about leaving!" Ye Yulin said coldly. Having finally obtained such a good opportunity, how could she let it slip away?

"You're the one who can't touch me now, Ice Ring!"

Ling Luochen acted faster than Ye Yulin, unleashing five enormous ice rings that swept towards Ye Yulin.

However, it was blocked by a net of starlight, Ye Yulin's most powerful level nine defensive soul tool, Starry Sky Guardian. When facing an attack, it can cause countless golden lights to illuminate the stars around her, which can be forged into a net to block enemy attacks.

"A defensive soul tool? It can block physical attacks, but what about soul attacks?" Ling Luochen said, her blue hair suddenly turning white, like a snow woman. Ling Luochen exhaled a breath of cold air and said, "Freeze your soul!" Her current ultimate ice attack is not just about freezing the body, but also carries an extremely strong mental attack. That terrifying cold air can even freeze the mind.

But just as Ye Yulin's spirit was being eroded by the cold air, his level nine trigger-type defensive soul tool came into play.

The Awakening Necklace is Ye Yulin's level nine triggered mental defense soul tool.

Ling Luochen frowned. "This guy has three level-nine soul tools that cover physical attack, physical defense, and mental defense. No wonder he is one of the three most famous level-nine soul masters in the Sun Moon Empire."

Yuwen Tuo was also a little puzzled. In the original story, the defensive soul tool that this guy was wearing at this time was just an eighth-level headband, right? This time, he actually wore the Clarity Necklace with him.

Could it be that the Sun Moon Empire is so terrified of being killed by us that everyone now has to be armed to the teeth before they dare to go to the battlefield?

"Hmph, no matter how powerful a level nine soul tool is, it can't compare to a divine artifact." Ling Luochen brandished the scepter in her hand. Although she couldn't fully unleash the power of the Water God Scepter, she could still use its divine power to enhance her soul skills.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Frozen Throne!"

The 100,000-year soul ring lit up, and combined with the divine power of the Water God's Scepter, a frozen throne condensed in front of Ling Luochen. On the throne was engraved a small, ice-blue grass, which was the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass. Ling Luochen stepped forward and sat down, like an ice queen.

This is her eighth soul skill. After sitting on the Frozen Throne, she can activate the Extreme Cold Royal Authority Domain, which allows her to control the cold air in the world and then issue royal decrees to unleash various different throne skills.

"Royal decree: Frost Guards!"

All the cold air in the world seemed to obey Ling Luochen's command. Before her, the cold wind gathered and condensed into dozens of enormous ice giants.

Each of these ice giants possesses 40% of Ling Luochen's soul power, making them high-level Soul Douluo, and specifically, Soul Douluos of the ultimate ice. In other words, each one is stronger than the original Giant Strength Douluo, Cheng Gang.

Ling Luochen's original limit was to condense ten, but now that she has the Water God's Scepter in her hand and is empowered by divine power, she has quadrupled her limit to forty.

Forty giant Douluo Cheng Gang—no, forty ice giants—rushed towards the entire army of the Sun Moon Empire at Ling Luochen's command.

Even with the concentrated firepower of the Sun and Moon Empire, it would be impossible to wipe out so many giants comparable to those with titles in one go; it would be difficult to even take down one of them.

"You've got your weapons, huh? Very well, Royal Decree, Frostmourne!"

Ling Luochen's scepter trembled once more, and the chilling aura surged toward the giants. Instantly, a greatsword of ice attributes appeared in the hand of each ice giant.

Forty giants swung their swords wildly among the army. Since they were lifeless and felt no pain, their reckless fighting style caused heavy losses to the Sun Moon Empire.

As Ling Ye was retreating, he looked back at Ling Luochen, who had single-handedly blocked the entire Sun and Moon Army, and his eyes were filled with joy.

Regardless of whether Ling Luochen will return to the family in the future, as long as she remains a deterrent, the family will at least not decline.
