Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Chapter 272 Condensing the Second Soul Core
Hyotei and Yukitei instinctively stepped back a little distance.

"Is it really that comfortable...? What a freak..."

Xue Di's eyes were complicated, clearly recalling unpleasant memories.

Without comparison, there is no harm. Compared to the excruciating pain she experienced when she condensed her soul core, Ye Chen's experience was simply enjoyable.

There is no harm without comparison.

The Snow Emperor was also deeply affected at this moment.

At the same time, a feeling of unprecedented anticipation and joy welled up deep in my heart.

Ye Chen's talent is so great that he has a very high chance of becoming a god in the future.

At least, Ye Chen's probability of becoming a god is much greater than her probability of surviving the heavenly tribulation.

When Ye Chen first captured her, she was indeed a little angry, very unhappy, and even extremely pessimistic, worried that Ye Chen would do something strange to her...

However, after spending just a few days together, she discovered that Ye Chen was...

Aside from being a bit domineering at times... well, she's also a bit... lewd...

In other aspects, it's really not bad, just as Hyotei said.

Moreover, her current state is quite peculiar.

Although it is Ye Chen's "soul", it can have its own body and consciousness. Except for having no combat power, it is almost exactly the same as her when she takes human form.

Ye Chen did not use this to restrict her freedom, nor did he force her to do anything.

In this respect, she did think a little more highly of Ye Chen.

……

Ye Chen was focused on fusing the soul core and didn't pay attention to the expressions of the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor.

Intense fluctuations of soul power spread out from Ye Chen, causing the entire ice cave to tremble slightly. The millennia-old ice on the cave walls crackled, seemingly unable to withstand the radiation of this extremely condensed power.

The powerful soul core merged into Ye Chen's body without causing any harm or even putting the slightest pressure on him.

As time passed, the icy blue patterns on Ye Chen's body gradually faded, eventually merging into his skin and disappearing completely.

The aura of the black hole soul core slowly disappeared into Ye Chen's dantian, as if nothing had happened.

If it weren't for the dramatic change in the aura emanating from him, no one would have known that he had just accomplished such an astonishing feat.

"call……"

Ye Chen exhaled a long breath, which condensed into a thin, icy blue line as if it were solid. It struck the ice wall opposite him, splashing up a cloud of fine ice powder.

He opened his eyes.

Deep within his pupils, two faintly visible, icy blue stars seemed to be spinning, profound and powerful.

An indescribable sense of powerful control filled my heart.

"How does it feel?"

Hyotei asked impatiently, her little face full of concern.

“Better than ever.”

Ye Chen felt the surging and stable soul power flowing within his body, like a great river, and he was extremely satisfied. "The speed of soul power circulation has increased by more than 10 times, and the condensation and recovery speed of soul power have increased by dozens of times!"

After ordinary Title Douluo condenses their soul core, they cannot make the soul core coexist in the three states of solid, liquid, and gas, making cultivation extremely difficult. Many Title Douluo simply give up on cultivation and plan to stay at level 91 for their entire lives.

Ye Chen's soul core, however, is a "black hole" soul core.

Similar to Di Tian and Huo Yuhao.

The Black Hole Soul Core automatically absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Even if Ye Chen sleeps all day, he can still cultivate automatically, and his cultivation level will automatically increase until level 90. If Ye Chen starts cultivating, his cultivation speed will naturally be even faster. Even without the "Resonance" ability, Ye Chen's cultivation speed can easily reach 10 times that of before!
If the "Resonance" technique is added, Ye Chen's cultivation speed will increase by more than ten times, reaching tens or even hundreds of times!
The reason why my cultivation speed couldn't reach such a high level before was mainly due to insufficient spiritual energy from heaven and earth.

Now, Ye Chen's Black Hole Soul Core can absorb energy from the void, which is equivalent to having endless heaven and earth energy, so his cultivation speed can be increased infinitely!

However, if the cultivation speed is too fast, the resulting noise will be too great, and it is easy to injure the person cultivating with you.

Cultivating with Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong can increase cultivation speed by up to 10 times.

Cultivating with Ma Xiaotao and the others can increase cultivation speed by 20 times.

Even if the cultivation speed is increased by 30 times when she is with Xian Lin'er, she can still withstand it.

However, this would cause a great commotion, which is not suitable within the academy. It can only be done in the wild or at the Tang Sect headquarters.

As Ye Chen felt the stable operation of his soul core and the still surging energy and spiritual power reserves of the 100,000-year-old snow lotus within his body, a bold idea inevitably surfaced in his mind.

Soul Core... doesn't seem that difficult?
Now that the ultimate ice attribute soul core in the dantian has been stabilized.

There are also two other locations: the chest and the space between the eyebrows.

His mental strength is equally powerful!
After absorbing the soul essence of the Ice Dragon King and most of the soul essence of the Fire Dragon King, Ye Chen's spiritual power reached the late stage of the Spirit Domain Realm, which is equivalent to the level of a Limit Douluo.

Ye Chen suspected that Mu En's mental strength was around this level, or even weaker than his.

Because the next step is the Divine Origin Realm, which is the realm of gods, and old man Mu En certainly hasn't reached that level.

The greatest difficulty in condensing a second soul core lies in controlling soul power and maintaining the physical body's endurance.

Ye Chen's mental strength and physical strength far surpass those of ordinary Title Douluos.

For Ye Chen, obtaining a soul core with the ultimate ice attribute was as easy as eating and drinking. He felt that condensing a second soul core wouldn't be too difficult either...

"Hyotei, Yukitetsu..."

Ye Chen's lips curled into a faint smile as he asked, "What do you think would happen if I condensed another soul core?"

"what?"

Hyotei jumped up like a startled rabbit.

"Are you crazy!"

Xue Di could no longer remain calm. Her icy blue eyes widened instantly, and she almost shouted in disbelief.

Even though she was used to seeing all kinds of things, she was still shocked by Ye Chen's crazy idea.

A Soul Saint, having just condensed a Soul Core powerful enough to make even a Super Douluo envious, is already thinking of condensing a second one?

This goes beyond mere talent; it's downright... courting death!
Throughout history, condensing a soul core has always been an extremely dangerous undertaking, with a slim chance of survival.

It would be a stroke of luck if even one person succeeded, but becoming a Title Douluo was already a foregone conclusion.

Condensing a second soul core is an ultimate challenge that only Super Douluo at their peak dare to attempt when trying to break through to Limit Douluo. The consequence of failure is very likely to be the annihilation of both body and soul!
No matter how strong Ye Chen is, he is still just a Soul Saint. How could his body withstand the power of two Soul Cores?
"Ye Chen, calm down..."

Ice Emperor rushed forward and grabbed Ye Chen's arm, saying hastily, "One soul core is already remarkable, a second soul core is too dangerous. Even Super Douluo struggles to condense two cores, let alone you..."

"Don't worry, I'm just trying to condense it outside my body first. If I feel any pressure, I can just abandon the soul core and run away. I won't rush into fusion."

Ye Chen smiled and comforted.

Since the fusion is happening outside the body, Ye Chen can simply run away if he feels any pressure.

As long as he runs fast enough, even if the soul core explodes, it will at most level the area within a radius of a dozen kilometers.

He has teleportation abilities, so there's no need to worry about anything going wrong.
