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

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

The sound of ice picks piercing flesh rang out in rapid succession, then abruptly ceased, accompanied by a mournful wolf howl.

The seven or eight demonic wolves charging at the front had their heads pierced instantly by ice spikes.

No blood spurted from the wound, because the terrifying cold froze the blood and life the moment it pierced through.

Their bodies remained in a pouncing posture, instantly freezing into stiff ice sculptures, before crashing to the ground with a "bang, bang, bang," shattering into ice shards.

"Done~"

Hyotei clapped their hands, appearing nonchalant.

"Hehe, my Hyotei is really amazing~"

Ye Chen praised with a smile.

"Of course~"

Hyotei held its head high, feeling quite pleased with itself.

She wasn't particularly proud, after all, she was just an ordinary hundred-year-old soul beast.

However, receiving Ye Chen's praise still made her very happy.

Of course, this was just an accident.

Because Ye Chen quickly found one of his targets this time—the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant.

Ye Chen brought an eighth-level soul tool this time—the Soul-Capturing Gourd.

As the name suggests, it is able to absorb and store spirit rings, preventing them from dissipating.

This kind of soul tool has actually existed in this world for a long time. It was passed down from the Sun Moon Empire, but its storage time is limited, and the age of the soul rings it absorbs is very low.

Although Ye Chen's Soul-Capturing Gourd is only an eighth-level soul tool, it can absorb a 100,000-year soul ring and can store it permanently, releasing it for absorption at any time.

Ye Chen is already powerful enough. He will also equip his second spirit with a spirit ring that is over 100,000 years old, and he will search for it in the ocean in the future.

Therefore, Ye Chen completely disregarded the Soul Ring of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant.

However, it can be given to other people.

A 100,000-year soul ring, although it's a mental type, can actually be given to anyone. And a 100,000-year soul bone shouldn't be wasted either.

As the saying goes, since we're already here...

……

……

With Ye Chen's goal in mind, Ye Chen moved swiftly, and in a short time, he led the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor deep into the Demon Forest, covering a hundred miles.

Soon, an aura far more powerful and violent than any of the previous soul beasts appeared in the three people's senses.

"Huh, a hundred-thousand-year-old Evil Eye? Ye Chen, weren't you looking for the Evil Emperor?"

Hyotei looked at Ye Chen curiously.

She thought Ye Chen would lead her and Xue Di to raid the Evil Emperor's lair.

Although the Evil Emperor possessed strong mental power, that was all he had.

In terms of physical strength, it can be said to be only slightly stronger than an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beast.

If Ye Chen leads her and Xue Di in a sneak attack, they will definitely be able to severely injure the opponent, or even kill them outright.

"The soul rings and soul bones of the 100,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant are quite good; I'll find them useful," Ye Chen said with a smile.

Just then, the space in front of them suddenly distorted, the light seemed to be swallowed up, and an area became pitch black and deep.

Immediately afterwards, a colossal object slowly "squeezed" out from the distorted space!

That was a giant eyeball with a diameter of over three meters!

The base color of the eyeballs was a deep, dark red, like congealed blood, while the pupils were a silvery-gray with a metallic sheen, as if countless twisted souls were wailing inside.

The pupils were surrounded by thick, scarlet blood vessels.

Around the enormous eyeball grew dozens of dark red tentacles, each over ten meters long and as thick as a bucket, covered with suckers and bone spurs!
These tentacles danced wildly in the air, each wave unleashing a powerful mental storm.

The opponent was none other than the 100,000-year-old soul beast—the Evil Eye Tyrant!
"Hehehe... It's been a long time since I've eaten humans. Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll slowly devour you piece by piece..."

When the Evil Eye Tyrant saw Ye Chen and his companions, he immediately revealed a cruel and wicked smile.

Of course, this was because Ye Chen used his mental power to conceal the auras of the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor in order not to alert them.

"Hmph, looking for death!"

Before the Evil Eye Tyrant could launch an attack, the Snow Empress let out a cold snort.

She didn't even move her feet; only her silver eyes, which contained the power of ten thousand years of mysterious ice, narrowed slightly.

Om-!
An invisible chill emanated from the Snow Empress, pressing down on the Evil Eye Tyrant.

Ye Chen had already removed the concealment of his spiritual power, and the pressure of his nearly 700,000-year-old spirit ring fell upon the Evil Eye Tyrant without reservation. "Wait...you...how can you be so strong? Who are you?!"

For the first time, clear horror was revealed in the enormous vertical pupils of the Evil Eye Tyrant, and its huge tentacles even trembled incessantly with fear.

However, Xue Di did not give the other party any chance.

"Chong-"

A longsword of ice crystals appeared in the Snow Empress's hand, which she casually swung at the Evil Eye Tyrant—Emperor Sword: Ice Extreme Unparalleled!
The terrifying sharpness, accompanied by endless chill, instantly engulfed the Evil Eye Tyrant.

"Do not--"

"boom--"

A flash of icy blue sword light, accompanied by the Evil Eye Tyrant's scream and a loud bang.

The Evil Eye Tyrant's enormous eyeball exploded instantly.

Countless fragments of flesh and juice were frozen by the cold air, turning into hard ice shards that scattered in all directions.

Simple and easy.

With a casual sword strike, he was killed instantly.

The entire process, from the moment the Evil Eye Tyrant appeared to the moment he appeared, took no more than ten seconds.

Of course, the main reason was that the Snow Empress's attack was too sudden, and the Evil Eye Tyrant was completely unprepared, so he was naturally unable to resist.

"Wait, something's not right. Why aren't there any spirit rings?"

However, Hyotei soon realized that something was wrong.

After the Evil Eye Tyrant died, no spirit rings appeared.

"Because it's not completely dead yet."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and made a casual gesture.

"Whoosh-"

A palm-sized silver crystal landed in Ye Chen's hand.

"Huh, what is this? It's completely unharmed from the Snow Empress's attack. It doesn't look like a soul bone."

When Hyotei saw the silver crystal in Ye Chen's hand, she immediately came closer out of curiosity.

"This must be a talent of the Evil Eye clan. Legend has it that even if the physical body of an Evil Eye with a powerful bloodline is destroyed, their soul can survive for a long time, and they can even possess another body and be reborn. I never thought it was true..."

Xue Di spoke slowly, her eyes filled with surprise.

After all, this was only a 100,000-year-old evil eye, yet it was able to preserve its soul after its physical body was destroyed.

However, if it were an ordinary soul beast, even she, after her physical body was destroyed, her soul would not be able to remain for long, let alone have the ability to possess another body and be reborn.

"Then what do we do? Does that mean we can't kill it?"

Hyotei conjured a small pair of pincers and gently tapped on the silver-white crystal in Ye Chen's hand, producing a "clinking" metallic sound.

"It's so hard, Snow Empress, try to cut it into pieces." Ice Empress said to Snow Empress.

Although it was just a simple test, it confirmed that she wouldn't be able to break the crystal in a short time.

"To deal with a soul, you need strong mental power. Although brute force can also work, it is still too inefficient."

Ye Chen smiled slightly.

Before Xue Di could make a move, Ye Chen concentrated his spiritual power and slammed it hard into the silver crystal in his hand.

"Kakaka-"

As it suffered a tremendous mental attack, the seemingly hard silver crystal suddenly developed numerous cracks.

"Do not!!"

A terrified voice rang out from within the silver crystal; it was the voice of the Evil Eye Tyrant: "My father is the ruler of this forest! You cannot kill me, or you will all pay with your lives!"

Although the Evil Eye Tyrant was terrified, he still wanted to use the title of Evil Emperor to intimidate Ye Chen.

"That's perfect, let's kill them all together."

Ye Chen smiled slightly, and another mental shock descended.

The evil-eyed tyrant's soul didn't even have time to scream before it was annihilated.

"boom--"

The silver crystal in Ye Chen's hand shattered with a loud bang.

The next moment, a huge blood-red spirit ring slowly emerged from the corpse of the Evil Eye Tyrant.

Clearly, the Evil Eye Tyrant is now completely dead.
