Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 245 Soul Power Breakthrough
The gushing, warm energy, like magma, flowed into the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone through the broken meridians. The rhomboid ice crystals, which were about to dissipate, immediately began to glow again under the infusion of this massive life energy.

Then, the faint light suddenly burst into a blinding blue light, and the shattered fragments reassembled as if time had reversed.

At the same time, Dugu Han's attribute soul power, which surpassed the limit, was also injected into the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone along with his life energy.

A new energy, fused with life energy and Dugu Han's soul power attribute energy, burst forth instantly from the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, quickly suppressing the energy of the secret technique soul bone.

Before long, the energy of the secret soul bone began to decline steadily, the patterns on its surface began to distort, and its originally domineering pressure was forcibly suppressed. The 420,000-year-old soul bone even emitted a crisp sound like metal and stone shattering.

Dugu Han's face was ashen, and the excruciating pain from the two soul bones twisting in his left arm was unbearable, his clothes already soaked with cold sweat.

But his bloodshot eyes were fixed on his left arm.

The energy of the Ice Emperor's Wings bound the Mystic Soul Bone like chains. The chill of the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone, amplified by his soul power, transformed into thousands of ice blades, frantically tearing at the gap between the two soul bones.

The energy on the surface of the secret technique soul bone crumbled inch by inch under the erosion of this extreme cold, while the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone was like a gluttonous beast that had been activated, greedily devouring the opponent's dissipating energy.

“It’s done!”

A hint of joy flashed in Dugu Han's bloodshot eyes.

……

Time passed by minute by minute.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye!
In the past three days, news of the Mingdu explosion and the Holy Spirit Cult, a hidden evil soul master sect, has spread rapidly throughout the entire continent.

No one could have imagined that these universally despised scoundrels, the evil spirit masters, would quietly establish their own sect.

With two Limit Douluo in command, it has become the number one power on the continent, surpassing Shrek Academy.

What surprised everyone even more was that, in order to eliminate this evil soul master sect, the Sun Moon Empire actually used the imperial palace as bait, risking the reconstruction of the imperial palace and even the capital, to bombard the imperial palace with level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells.

For a moment, everyone applauded the Sun Moon Empire's determination.

Even some military generals from the original Three Kingdoms in Douluo had to praise the opposing Sun Moon Empire when discussing this matter.

Dai Hao, who originally intended to take the opportunity to attack the Sun Moon Empire, had to stop his actions due to the current public opinion pressure on the mainland and the restraint from the emperor of the Star Luo Empire.

"Dai Hao!"

The emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire looked at the news from the border with disdain.

When he launched his coup, this was the man who took the opportunity to attack the Sun Moon Empire and carried out a horrific massacre of the civilians in an entire city.

Unexpectedly, they now want to take the opportunity to attack their Sun Moon Empire again.

"Father!"

Xu Tianran suggested, "Why don't we have the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Corps from the border teach them a lesson?"

"No need. Let's try to avoid creating friction. The unification of the mainland can't be rushed. We should just develop steadily!"

The emperor of the Sun Moon Empire waved his hand, saying that they didn't need to rush. With the gap between the three kingdoms in soul tool technology widening, it was the three kingdoms, not them, who needed to be anxious.

"To unify the continent, we must have an overwhelming advantage; otherwise, too many things will change. Let's take it slow!"

"By the way, let the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps and the Evil Eye Soul Master Corps come back!"

"Also, how are things going with the Sunset Water Alliance and the evil soul masters within the Empire?"

The emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire suddenly asked.

"The search is underway, all cities are under martial law, and Ye Yulin and his followers, along with the Red Dust Hall Master, are personally leading the three Soul Master Corps to conduct searches inside and outside the cities of major cities."

Xu Tianran laughed and said, "Many Soul Masters from the Three Kingdoms, as well as Shrek Academy's inspection team, have come to help after learning that the Empire is cracking down on evil Soul Masters. It is estimated that in another week at most, the evil Soul Masters still hiding in the Empire will be completely wiped out."

"Is it to help, to explore, or to draw a map?"

The emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire shook his head dismissively, then stood up and handed over the remaining government affairs to Xu Tianran.

He then walked out on his own.

Frost was everywhere along the way. The flowers in the garden had all withered from the cold, and the morning mist had condensed into a layer of ice. The pond was also completely frozen.

For the past three days, extreme cold has been emanating from Dugu Han's room.

The entire manor was affected by the chill he emanated, turning it into a snow-covered manor.

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire walked through two gardens and arrived at Dugu Han's room.

Jing Hongchen, Ye Yulin, and the others had already been sent to search for the hidden evil soul masters. At this moment, only Ma Xiaotao and Kong Deming remained at the door.

"Master Kong, how is Xiaohan?"

"It's strange. His breathing has stabilized, and the two soul bones have clearly fused together, but how is that possible!"

Kong Deming simply couldn't understand how two formed soul bones could possibly fuse together.

This was something that should never have happened, but it actually happened right before his eyes.

“Junior Uncle is exceptionally intelligent. He definitely wouldn’t have done this if he wasn’t unsure.” Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms proudly.

Hmph, so you bunch of old men don't believe me.

"As long as nothing's wrong, that's all that matters!"

The emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire smiled.

at the same time!

Inside the room, the last trace of energy from the secret technique soul bone on Dugu Han's left arm was completely devoured and merged into the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone.

Suddenly, a dazzling ice-blue light burst forth from the left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion, and the rhomboid ice crystals on it had unknowingly transformed into ice-blue dragon scales.

As the secret soul bone fully fused, new soul bone patterns on the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone also spread rapidly across the beautiful dragon scales, like an inverted galaxy.

An incredibly powerful energy fluctuation also emanated from it.

"Success!"

The three people outside sensed this powerful fluctuation of soul power and were overjoyed.

"He actually managed to fuse the two soul bones!"

Kong Deming was surprised, but at the same time he also noticed a problem.

He glanced at the delighted Ma Xiaotao.

This girl probably didn't tell them the truth.

He knew about Dugu Han's left arm bone. It was the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, which was auctioned in Xingluo City. It was only 70,000 to 80,000 years old. However, even if a soul bone of 70,000 to 80,000 years old was fused with a secret soul bone of 100,000 years old, it would be impossible for it to produce such a strong soul power fluctuation.

Kong Deming had never seen any other soul bone emit such a strong fluctuation of soul power.

It must be a soul bone that is at least 300,000 years old, so it is clear that the age of that secret soul bone is definitely not low.

Inside the house!

After Dugu Han's Ice Jade Scorpion left arm bone completely absorbed that secret technique soul bone, his own soul power was also rapidly increasing.

At the same time, a pure life energy surged from his Ice Emperor Wings, rapidly repairing the wound on his left arm.

The broken meridians were repaired and became more resilient.

The torn pieces of flesh, under the influence of life energy, were rejoined, and the skin was repaired to its original state in an instant.

However, compared to the repair of his left arm, Dugu Han's soul power increased much more rapidly.

In just a short while, even after compression, his soul power broke through level 69 and was still rapidly increasing.

"Good boy!"

Kong Deming had been observing Dugu Han's condition with his mental power, and he immediately noticed Dugu Han's breakthrough in soul power.

Seeing that Dugu Han's soul power had broken through to level 69, the rate of improvement had not stopped.

He immediately smiled at the Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire and said, "Your Majesty, your nephew is about to break a record!"

"Record?"

Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow. Although she didn't quite understand Kong Deming's meaning, she didn't care much.

Breaking records! Dugu Han has broken too many Soul Master records!

Leaving aside the martial soul that has evolved several times, the third spirit ring of ten thousand years and the fifth spirit ring of one hundred thousand years have already broken two records.

There's also the terrifying speed of his cultivation, and the first soul core he condensed when he was a Soul Emperor—just mentioning it is enough to scare people to death.

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire, however, seemed curious: "What record?"

"Breaking the Soul Saint's record!"

Kong Deming exclaimed in amazement, "Xiao Han's soul power is rapidly increasing after completely fusing with that secret soul bone. In just a short time, he has already broken through to level 69, and his soul power is still increasing. It is estimated that he will be able to break through to Soul Saint directly!"

"Soul Saint?"

The Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire's pupils contracted: "Master Kong, are you saying that Xiao Han can directly break through to the Soul Saint realm?"

"Yes, Soul Saint!"

Kong Deming nodded, looking at Dugu Han in the room with an undisguised amazement in his eyes.

The ultimate martial soul is different from the ordinary martial soul. For any ultimate martial soul, the soul power will be compressed after breaking through level 30, which makes the cultivation of the ultimate martial soul extremely slow.

If Dugu Han could cultivate his ultimate martial soul to the level of Soul Saint at such a young age, what would happen if he had an ordinary martial soul?
"I'm afraid he might be able to cultivate to the level of a Soul Douluo!"
