Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Seventh Soul Skill: Ice Flame Claw.

A melee-type soul skill. After activating the soul skill, a layer of ice-blue particles resembling diamonds covers the hands and forearms, making them extremely hard and possessing extremely strong physical attack and defense capabilities.

Another seventh soul skill: Ice Flame Protection.

This is a defensive soul skill. After activating the skill, a layer of blue ice crystals quickly condenses on the body's surface to protect the entire body, providing extremely high defense.

The combination of two seventh soul skills, each over 300,000 years old, allows Mu Yang to not only be a ranged mage but also to occasionally act as a front-line warrior.

One of the two major soul bone skills of the Ice Jade Emperor's torso bone: Eternal Frozen Domain.

This is a domain-type soul bone skill with a control-oriented effect. Once released, the domain is filled with a terrifying cold current that can instantly freeze opponents within its range.

Another Soul Bone Skill: Ice Emperor's Wrath, an offensive Soul Bone Skill that strikes the opponent with extreme ice and comes with super freezing power.

It can be said that the four skills attached to the Ice Emperor Soul Ring and Soul Bone have made Mu Yang's means of dealing with enemies much richer.

After testing his skills, Mu Yang didn't linger in the wasteland and returned to the academy with Shui Bing'er.

His next task was to return to the academy, acquire a divinely bestowed soul ring, and become the first food-type titled Douluo in the continent's soul master world. He would then cultivate the "Sun Body Refinement" to improve his physical strength as much as possible. After acquiring the seventh soul ring of the Ice Flame Holy Shadow Martial Soul, he would head to the City of Slaughter to continue the Asura God Trial.

While Mu Yang and Shui Bing'er were returning to the Elemental Holy Academy, the Soul Masters of the continent were unaware that the strongest king in the far north had entered the human world, vowing to find the true culprit who kidnapped the Ice Emperor and avenge her best friend who was likely to have met with misfortune.

Xue Di indeed did not know the origins of Mu Yang and the other person who kidnapped Bing Di, but she knew that a Soul Master of Mu Yang's strength was certainly not an unknown figure in the Soul Master world.

By heading to the human world and inquiring about the characteristics of the two forms of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Xue Di firmly believed that she would be able to find out the origins of Mu Yang and his companion.

Moreover, unlike ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts and ferocious beasts, Xue Di looks no different from a soul master even without transformation. After all, it is common for soul masters to have some beast-like characteristics due to their martial soul.

As long as she conceals her aura and remains unaware that she has no martial soul or soul rings, other human soul masters will only perceive her as an ice-attribute powerhouse of unknown origin.

As for the Soul Masters she approached not cooperating?

The Snow Empress was not worried about this. Even without the advantage of the extreme north, her strength was still among the top in the continent. Under her extreme ice and snow, there would be very few soul masters in the human soul master world who would dare not cooperate with her.

That night, Mu Yang and his companion rushed back to the Elemental Holy Academy.

Early the next morning, all the powerful figures of the Elemental Holy Academy gathered on a secondary peak far from the main campus of the academy to watch Mu Yang advance to the ninth-ring Title Douluo and witness the birth of the first food-type Title Douluo in the history of the continent's soul master world.

"Wave--"

With the Ice Flame Holy Shadow Martial Soul attached to him, six bright red soul rings bloomed. With a soft sound, the divine soul ring that appeared above Mu Yang's head, resembling a golden glass bead, shattered, and a thick golden mist poured down, enveloping Mu Yang's body.

At the same time, a surge of icy blue and white light erupted as Mu Yang unleashed his Ice Flame Domain and Killing God Domain.

As the two domains appeared, the golden mist enveloping Mu Yang became even denser and expanded instantly, encompassing all the domains he released.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Yang circulated his soul power, and golden and crystal-colored light emanated from his body. The Spirit Gold Battle Armor and the external soul bone, Crystal Scale Armor, materialized and merged. Then, his head, torso, left and right arms, and left and right thighs all emitted a faint halo.

Stimulated by soul power, the seven soul bones—Crystal Scale Armor, Wisdom Skull of Spirit Condensation, Ice Jade Emperor Torso Bone, Azure Bull Python Left Arm Bone, Titan Giant Ape Right Arm Bone, Soft Bone Rabbit Left Arm Bone, and Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone—all came into play, shortening the test time of the divinely bestowed soul ring as much as possible.

Demonstrating a strong foundation from the outset shortens the testing time for the divinely bestowed soul ring, which is helpful for condensing a higher-age divinely bestowed soul ring.

Just like weightlifters, when the weight of the barbell remains constant, the shorter the lifting time, the more energy is saved.

Soon, the dense golden mist that poured down after the divinely bestowed soul ring shattered transformed into fine golden threads, as if they were being woven, constantly weaving around Mu Yang's body.

As these golden threads weaved through the air, subtle fluctuations appeared on Mu Yang's face, and his soul power, refined and sublimated by the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, was released without reservation.

Before long, the golden threads that were constantly weaving around Mu Yang began to coalesce, forming nine golden rings.

These golden rings began to expand continuously, then rapidly contracted, repeatedly striking Mu Yang's body in a repetitive cycle.

Under the impact of the nine golden rings, bright red blood gradually seeped from Mu Yang's skin, and as the number of impacts increased, the injuries he suffered became more and more serious.

However, whenever the trauma accumulates to a certain extent, a blue-gold glow full of vitality will appear on Mu Yang's right leg.

As the blue-gold light flowed through his body, all the accumulated injuries on Mu Yang's body immediately vanished without a trace under this powerful life force. If it weren't for the bloodstains still seeping from his body, those previous injuries would seem to have been nothing more than illusions.

Time passed slowly, and another half hour went by in the blink of an eye. Gradually, Mu Yang felt that the enormous pressure brought by the divinely bestowed soul ring had reached his limit.

Without hesitation, Mu Yang stopped thinking about higher years and made the decision directly.

The next moment, the nine golden halos surrounding him merged into one, transforming into a huge blood-red halo radiating a pale golden glow that appeared around Mu Yang.

Immediately afterwards, as if because the divine soul ring that Mu Yang had condensed was too old and contained insufficient energy, the huge blood-red halo emitting a pale golden glow generated a huge suction force.

Under the influence of this enormous suction force, the primordial energy that filled the surrounding world rapidly converged, forming a huge cloud of primordial energy above Mu Yang's head, which then sank into the blood-red halo in a funnel shape.

"I wonder just how many years old this divinely bestowed ninth spirit ring will be?"

While waiting for the gathering spiritual energy of heaven and earth to 'charge' the divinely bestowed soul ring, Mu Yang thought to himself. (End of Chapter)
