Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 193 Soul Power Breakthrough
"Then, how about hunting down the Evil-Eyed Tyrant?"

"no!"

Dugu Han smiled and squeezed the soft hand. He could agree to anything, but hunting the Evil Eye Tyrant was out of the question!

"Give it a try?"

As Wu Ming spoke, she kissed Dugu Han on the cheek again, then whispered, "If that doesn't work, how about I find you a concubine?"

"Go find your sister!"

Upon hearing this, Han Ruoruo immediately became restless, got up, walked over, and slapped Wu Ming's buttocks in an annoyed manner.

That brat, she'd say anything for a piece of spiritual bone!

"Aren't you my sister?!"

Wu Ming rolled her eyes at her: "Le Xuan is the eldest, I'm the second eldest, I'm your second sister, call me second sister!"

"Sister my foot!"

Han Ruoruo rolled her eyes: "You're going to find another concubine for Dugu Han? Aren't you afraid Le Xuan will tear you apart?!"

"You probably don't want to tear me apart, do you?!"

Wu Ming looked at her suspiciously, then pointed at her and turned to Dugu Han, saying, "Jealous woman, this is a complete jealous woman. She doesn't care about you at all. Put her in the cold palace."

"I think it's more appropriate to banish you to the cold palace."

Dugu Han slapped Wu Ming's butt without saying a word: "What do you think the Demon Forest is? It's the territory of the Evil Emperor, and all the Evil Eye Tyrants are its offspring."

"The Evil Eye Tyrant, which has existed for 100,000 years, is his direct descendant. Would it just stand by and watch you hunt down its offspring?"

"That's true!"

Wu Ming frowned; this was indeed a problem.

"You're not in such a hurry because you don't have a spiritual head and soul bone, so why can't you condense a soul core?" Han Ruoruo said speechlessly.

"Sister Ruoruo is right!"

Dugu Han agreed, "This is only the first soul core. With your talent and having witnessed the entire process of me condensing the soul core, condensing the first soul core is not difficult."

"But wouldn't it be easier to absorb a spirit head soul bone?" Wu Ming muttered softly.

"To make things a little easier, I'll send your man to his death!"

Dugu Han chuckled and slapped her on the bottom to get her off his lap. Then, after thinking for a moment, he said, "Stop fixating on that 100,000-year-old spiritual head and soul bone. Focus on your cultivation!"

"Once we increase our strength, let alone the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant, we'll hunt down even the Evil Emperor!"

"There is also the Sea Princess who is 600,000 years old, and the Demon King of the Star Dou Great Forest."

Dugu Han smiled and said, "These are all top-tier spirit-type soul beasts. With their spirit head soul bones, it will be much easier for you to condense your second soul core in the future."

"Row!"

Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming were filled with excitement upon hearing about the three ferocious beasts.

They hunted down the 190,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor and also successfully captured the 200,000-year-old Howling Moon Wolf Emperor.

If they can cultivate for a few more years and break through to the Super Douluo level in terms of soul power, they will be 100% confident in killing even the Evil Emperor, who hunts the second most ferocious beast on the continent.

As for hunting souls specifically for the sake of soul bones, the two women felt no psychological burden whatsoever.

They are Soul Masters. On the Douluo Continent, it is perfectly natural for Soul Masters to hunt Souls, as long as they do not indiscriminately slaughter Soul Beast clans.

……

In the days that followed, the three of them began a period of secluded cultivation.

Zhang Lexuan, who is currently in the illusion, is also constantly experiencing reincarnation within the illusion.

In his first life, it was no different from the real world. His family was wiped out, and he followed Elder Mu back to Shrek Academy. He went to the far north and met Dugu Han... and eventually became a god.

After becoming a god, she searched the entire continent, helping Wu Ming inherit the position of the Sun God and helping Han Ruoruo find a suitable divine successor. Then she ascended to the God Realm, waiting for Dugu Han to create his own divine position.

Unfortunately, Dugu Han failed to create his own godhood and died of old age on the Douluo Continent.

In her second life, she changed her identity, but what remained unchanged was that she still met Dugu Han and still received the inheritance of the Moon God's divine position.

In this life, there is only her and Dugu Han, and Dugu Han still embarks on the path of creating his own godhood, but still fails.

In her third life, Zhang Lexuan's identity changed again, and she met Dugu Han again. However, in this life, Dugu Han successfully created his own godhood and ascended to the God Realm to find her. The two lived a carefree life in the God Realm.

The fourth generation...

The fifth generation...

……

Zhang Lexuan has been reincarnating in the illusion for ninety-nine lifetimes, meeting Dugu Han in various different identities and with different experiences.

However, what they had in common was that she inadvertently inherited the position of the Moon Goddess in each of her lifetimes, and Dugu Han also chose to create his own godhood in each of his lifetimes.

But aside from the two previous failed attempts, in the subsequent ninety-seven incarnations, Dugu Han successfully created his own godhood each time, though the timeframes varied. Each time, after reaching level one hundred and becoming a god, he would immediately ascend to the divine realm to find her...

The final cycle of reincarnation has ended!
Zhang Lexuan opened her eyes, and Ying Lexuan opposite her also opened her eyes.

After exchanging a glance, Ying Lexuan uncontrollably walked towards Zhang Lexuan and merged into her body.

In an instant, an immense amount of memory appeared in Zhang Lexuan's mind; it was the memory of Ying Lexuan in this ninety-nine reincarnation illusion.

The memory was exactly the same as Zhang Lexuan's in the ninety-ninth reincarnation illusion. After the two memories merged, the scenes in the memory were deeply imprinted in her mind.

At the same time, Zhang Lexuan's spiritual sea also began to expand rapidly after merging with this vast memory, and the level of her spiritual power also broke through to the point of being tangible yet intangible.

Three days later!
Zhang Lexuan opened her eyes again, her eyes filled with determination.

She will become a god, ascend to the divine realm, and then wait for Dugu Han to go to the divine realm to find her.

As for the earlier concern about Dugu Han's failure to create his own godhood, after experiencing ninety-nine reincarnations in the illusion, Zhang Lexuan no longer had any worries about it.

Now she is more convinced than anyone else that Dugu Han can successfully create his own godhood, and she no longer hesitates about inheriting the Moon God's position; all she feels is determination.

[Test passed, reward: Soul Ring increased by 4,000 years, Moon Goddess affinity increased by 10%!] [Moon Goddess's Fifth Test: Ten Thousand Years of Solitude, test can be started at any time!]

At that moment, the voice of the Moon Goddess appeared in Zhang Lexuan's mind.

"Eternal solitude!"

Zhang Lexuan frowned as she thought about her fifth exam.

Judging from the name, it seems that one is destined to live alone for ten thousand years.

"Ten thousand years... It's impossible for the divine qualification assessment to really last for ten thousand years."

"So it's another illusion?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Lexuan shook her head and revealed her spirit rings.

Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, and eight spirit rings rose from beneath her feet.

The four consecutive upgrades to her spirit rings, totaling 12,000 years, also upgraded her first and second spirit rings to black 10,000-year spirit rings.

Zhang Lexuan glanced at the first and second spirit rings, which were ten thousand years old, and then focused her attention on the seventh spirit ring.

This was a spirit ring age of 84,000 years. Now, the age has been increased by another 12,000 years, bringing it to 96,000 years.

"After passing one more test, my seventh spirit ring should be able to reach 100,000 years!"

Zhang Lexuan put away her soul ring with satisfaction, then activated the inheritance mark between her eyebrows, shot out a beam of light, opened the portal, and walked out.

The three people inside the palace were cultivating.

Two months have passed since Dugu Han successfully condensed his soul core.

In the past two months, his soul power has been rapidly increasing thanks to the absorption of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through his soul core. He has reached the critical point of level 65 and is now attempting to break through to level 66.

Beside him were Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming.

The two women were also cultivating, but when they sensed Zhang Lexuan's presence, they both looked over at the same time.

They were all delighted to see Zhang Lexuan walking towards them.

"Shh!"

Zhang Lexuan gestured to the two women not to speak.

She glanced at Dugu Han, who was breaking through to the next level, and pointed outside the palace, indicating that they should go outside to talk.

The two women nodded and followed them out.

The Howling Moon Wolf King had long since recovered from its injuries. After soaking in the Moonlight Pool for half a month, it left the Inheritance Land, only occasionally bringing in some food.

So only Zhang Lexuan and two others were outside.

"Where are Xiao Tao and Ning Tian?!"

After Zhang Lexuan led the two women out, she asked curiously.

She remembered that Dugu Han had said he would bring Ma Xiaotao and Ning Tian over as well.

"He wants to wait two months before accepting the call!"

Han Ruoruo smiled and explained why she wasn't picking up Ma Xiaotao now.

“Look at your man, isn’t he cunning enough?” Wu Ming said with a smile.

"It's not cunning, it's cleverness!"

Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.

Ma Xiaotao is currently being nurtured by the academy with all its might, and the academy should help her hunt down her eighth spirit ring.

Moreover, the academy has been based on the mainland for so many years, and has figured out the gathering places of all the major soul beasts, and also knows where the most suitable soul beast for Ma Xiaotao is.

"Le Xuan, you passed your fourth test. What's the reward?" Han Ruoruo asked curiously.

"Ten percent Moon Goddess affinity, and a four thousand-year increase in Soul Ring age!"

Zhang Lexuan smiled and showed off her spirit rings, which were black, black, black, black, black, black, black, and red. Eight spirit rings immediately appeared in front of the three of them.

"I rely on!"

"The first and second spirit rings of ten thousand years!"

Wu Ming stared in shock at the black first and second spirit rings.

With eight spirit rings, seven black and one red, this configuration could easily be mistaken for the second spirit rings of a twin spirit.

"Le Xuan, I remember your seventh spirit ring was 84,000 years old, right?"

Han Ruoruo focused her attention on the seventh spirit ring.

The spirit ring was as black as ink, but upon closer inspection, a faint reddish tinge could be seen within its deep blackness.

"That's right, it's been 84,000 years, and now it's increased to 96,000 years. I estimate that with another soul ring upgrade, it will break through to 100,000 years!"

Zhang Lexuan smiled and nodded.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ming gasped. A seventh spirit ring that had lasted for 100,000 years—in her memory, only two people on the entire continent possessed it: Elder Mu from the academy and the now-deceased Poison Undying.

Even Long Xiaoyao, who was known as one of the Black and White Twin Holy Dragons alongside Elder Mu a hundred years ago, only absorbed his 100,000-year soul ring when he was on his eighth soul ring.

"This is an improvement from the divine test. When you inherit the divine position of the Sun God and begin the test in the future, you will also receive an improvement."

Zhang Lexuan smiled at the shocked Wu Ming, and then prepared to say something.

Suddenly, a surge of soul power, indicating a breakthrough, emanated from inside the palace.

After sensing the fluctuation of soul power, the three women went inside without prior arrangement.

Dugu Han calmed the surging soul power within his body caused by his recent breakthrough, and then opened his eyes.
