Douluo: The Peerless Sun and Moon Mechanical God

Chapter 67 The Twin Stars in Desolate Mountains and Harsh Waters, The Hellhound of Three Surnames, The Complete Unification of the Underworld (4K)

"Crunch, crunch, crunch!"

Chewing on a small ice silkworm snack, Hyotei channeled his grief and anger into a voracious appetite, venting the shame of his failed attempt to impress in the Underworld, and taking revenge on the overwhelming rage of being trapped by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.

Lin Qing quietly observed the gluttonous humanoid beast. Interestingly, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion's true form was about 1.5 meters long, and its humanoid form seemed to be roughly the same length, resembling a legally petite loli.

Those heretics who dislike tsundere lolis, you're the ones who deserve to be electrocuted!

"My expression looks weird."

Perhaps it was Lin Qing's direct and intense gaze that caused the Ice Emperor to suddenly stop eating and angrily question, "Are you pitying me?"

"That person is Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo from ten thousand years ago, the High Priest blessed by the first Sea God, with the cultivation of a Limit Douluo and a trace of the Sea God's power," Lin Qing said sincerely. "Even the Snow Emperor might not be able to defeat Poseidon. It's already very impressive that you survived."

Upon hearing this, the dejected Ice Emperor immediately regained his spirits and nodded emphatically: "Of course, when a soul beast breaks through the 500,000-year realm, its cultivation is equivalent to that of a human Limit Douluo. I am less than 400,000 years old, so there is indeed a slight, insignificant difference in soul power between me and the Sea God Douluo."

At the critical moment, my 400,000 years of combat experience made me react almost instinctively. I used all the extreme ice of the Eternal Frozen Domain to protect the Ice Emperor and the Ice Emperor's Claw, perfectly withstanding the Deep Sea Vortex of the Sea God Douluo.

"Don't be anxious. Have an Ice Silkworm to cool down. Next time, Xue'er and I will join forces. The pride of the Ice and Snow Emperors is not to be underestimated; we will definitely help you reclaim the Underworld!"

Hyotei comforted Lin Qing, handing him a frozen ice silkworm and encouraging him to vent his frustration through his teeth!

After all, they weren't bloodthirsty soul beasts. Lin Qing silently put the Ice Silkworm aside and probed indirectly, "Ice Emperor, you haven't seen the Snow Emperor for a long time, and you don't know how she's been in seclusion. Won't something happen to the Snow Emperor?"

"What unexpected event?" Ice Emperor opened her clear orange-gold eyes. "The core area of ​​the far north is a forbidden zone for humans. The soul beasts of the far north all adore Xue'er. In our far north, the Beast God is not Di Tian, ​​but is called Ice Heaven Snow Maiden!"

Because of her rebellious and disobedient thoughts, the Ice Emperor felt honored by the Snow Emperor's high status and did not consider at all that a super ferocious beast with nearly 700,000 years of cultivation might encounter misfortune in its lair.

"You are trapped by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm."

Hyotei: ∑（∀/）/

"Well, what are you trying to do by bringing up my painful past?!"

Lin Qing suddenly revealed the dark history of the Ice Emperor. The girl instantly transformed into the Red-Warm Emperor Scorpion, secretly resenting that the Ice Jade Scorpion did not have the talent of mental attributes and could not erase the memories of the evil human cub!

"What I mean is, learn from your mistakes. The Snow Empress is focused on breaking through the 700,000-year Heavenly Tribulation in seclusion, minimizing her external perception. If she encounters an outsider with abilities similar to the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, they could take advantage of her momentary lapse in attention and launch a sneak attack on her—"

"Is it really such a coincidence?"

The intelligent and shrewd Emperor Hyotei gently rubbed his chin, lost in deep thought.

According to Lin Qing's plan, an outsider would brave the extreme cold to penetrate deep into the core of the far north, bypassing the three ferocious beasts—the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Titan Snow Demon King, and the Ice Bear King—and directly enter the territory of the far north's dominant power. They would then happen to encounter the Snow Empress, who was in deep seclusion, and then use some kind of mental prison to restrict her from leaving!

Isn't that ridiculous?!

"The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is a piece of trash, but it is still a million-year-old soul beast. There are not many Ice Silkworm remains and mental cages that can compare with it in the Douluo Continent, right?" Ice Emperor hesitated.

"You're a soul beast and don't know this, but the era of Douluo Continent has changed. Soul guidance technology is advancing rapidly, creating all sorts of strange and wonderful soul tools," Lin Qing explained. "There's a type of soul tool called the Sealing Soul Tool. As the name suggests, the Snow Empress isn't 100% safe."

"Um----"

Ice Emperor nodded slightly. She had never seen a sealed soul tool, but she had witnessed the formidable power of a level nine high-explosive decomposition cannon. Zheng Zhan had actually launched such a shocking spatial attribute cannonball, which showed how advanced the technology of Douluo Continent had become.

"That makes sense. I will instruct the Ice Bear King to have the Ice Bear Clan act as guardians before Xue'er's seven hundred thousand-year tribulation arrives, preventing any life from approaching Xue'er's territory."

After much deliberation, the Ice Emperor decided to take Lin Qing's advice and send his eldest nephew, Ice Bear King Xiaobai, to escort them.

Lin Qing tilted his head. He pointed out the tribulation that Xue Di was about to face in advance, naturally hoping that Xue Di would be safe and sound, and that they could attack the Underworld together in the future and focus their fire on the minions of the Sea God from ten thousand years ago.

Although it seemed that the goal had been successfully achieved, and Ice Bear King Xiaobai was enough to make that level nine sealing-type soul master hesitate, Ice Emperor's outsourcing was somewhat unexpected. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to protect Snow Emperor yourself?"

"Yes!"

Hyotei said proudly, "Xiaobai lies around all day fattening up, and since he's just idling around anyway, it's perfect for him to come out and protect Xue'er."

What I'm about to do concerns the bright future of the far north for millions of years, while also leaving Xue'er a way out!

"Human cub Lin Qing, stand up straight and listen to me! From this day forward, I will leave the far north and enter the human world, guarding you every step of the way!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qinghu's body stiffened: "Are you serious?"

"The emperor's word is as good as gold!"

Hyotei answered decisively!

This was the result of Ice Emperor's careful consideration. Lin Qing possessed the twin martial souls of the Ultimate Gold and the Underworld Artifact, and his unparalleled talent was obvious to everyone. If he continued to grow step by step, he would surely become the Ultimate Douluo.

As a chosen one of the Underworld, Lin Qing can inherit the Underworld Godhood by slaying the Sea God Douluo Poseidon and other invaders. At this moment, the Ice Emperor is clear-headed and prioritizes protecting Lin Qing's growth, hoping to inherit the Godhood before the Heavenly Tribulation of the Four Fiends in the Far North arrives.

This is the most important task, affecting countless soul beasts in the far north. The Ice Emperor bears a heavy responsibility!

"Hmph—"

Ice Empress grunted twice. It was understandable that she couldn't defeat the Sea God Douluo, a divine being; she couldn't even beat a native of the Douluo Continent!

Don't underestimate the overpowered stats of Extreme Ice in Season 2!

"Thank you for your hard work, great Hyotei."

Why not get a free bodyguard? Lin Qingsmo smoothly accepted Ice Emperor's offer.

"A wise emperor is farsighted, worrying about the people's troubles before enjoying their pleasures!"

A spirit of dedication shone like the rising sun over the far north. The young girl, A Bing, beaming, said, "I am burdened with duty and dare not boast of my hard work. I only wish that when you take control of the Underworld, you will never forget the toil of this Emperor and the Far North. In the future, when our Far North Heavenly King dies under the Heavenly Tribulation—"

*Ahem* Lord of the Underworld, remember to rescue us!

Hyotei's greatest wish right now is to become a minor god in the underworld after death and achieve immortality!

"It's nothing."

Lin Qing focused on the present while Hyotei planned for the future. The two hit it off immediately, each feeling they had gotten a good deal. Hyotei devoured a frozen ice silkworm in a few bites, wiped the food residue from his palm with the ice from the frozen Cerberus, and frowned, saying, "Speaking of which, why did you specifically bring a dog with you, my old senior?"

"Because I have a feeling that the attributes of Cerberus are very suitable for making the Soul Ring of the Underworld Emperor Sword." Ilex appeared with a smile, releasing a layer of gray shield to prevent the three of them from having their conversation leaked.

"But Hellhounds are creatures born in the underworld, and they don't have spirit rings." Lin Qing looked at Electrox, his silver-gray eyes filled with inquiry.

Electrolux said calmly, "Spirit rings are a form of energy. We follow the underlying rules of Douluo Continent, so it is not unrealistic to allow Netherworld creatures to fuse with the Netherworld Emperor Sword in the form of spirit rings."

If I had intended to meet you, this fragment of divine consciousness could have been transformed into a soul ring, but I simply chose not to.

The more I learn about Douluo Continent, the more convinced I become that it is an open and inclusive magical world, capable of accommodating all beings from other dimensions.

Lin Qing deeply agreed. He and Electrolux were essentially transmigrators who, upon arriving in Douluo Continent, were influenced by the rules of that plane and tended to assimilate. In another timeline, Electrolux's divine consciousness transformed into a gray soul ring, while in this era, Elder Electrolux used fragments of his divine consciousness to fuse with a Netherworld artifact, prematurely awakening the dormant Netherworld Emperor Sword.

"Old Master Yi, what should we do?"

Lin Qing tapped the solid ice sculpture of the three-headed hellhound with his finger. The Underworld Emperor Sword had been idle for a long time, and the energy of the soul ring could shorten its sharpening time, allowing it to quickly leap into a super artifact of reincarnation that could sweep away all things in the world.

Electrolux said solemnly, "You have level 50 soul power, while Cerberus is a Title Douluo-level Netherworld creature. The difference in your cultivation levels is too great. You need Cerberus's full cooperation to ensure that the necromancy is foolproof."

"Therefore, the best course of action is for Cerberus to offer himself as a sacrifice."

Lin Qing glanced at the three-headed hellhound and understood the purpose of Elder Yi's sound insulation. Discussing sacrifices in front of others was truly hellish.

"Sacrifice, I understand that!"

Hyotei's expertise is a perfect match; sacrifice is a basic skill for 100,000-year-old soul beasts!

"The sacrifice of a soul beast must be made without reservation, offering its bloodline and soul wholeheartedly. Let me tell you, we cannot be soft-hearted when dealing with Cerberus. We must beat this creature of the underworld to the point of wishing it were dead, forcing it to make a sacrifice!"

Believe me, I'll beat it to a pulp. We're at a critical juncture, and we must use violence to force a change in the future!

With a passionate and fervent voice, Hyotei clenched his fist and pounded his chest, the slightly hollow echo making Lin Qing find it hard to believe.

"Hmm, what do you think, Mr. Yi?"

"Hey?"

Ice Emperor circled around to face Lin Qing, tilted his head back and stared intently at him. His fair face turned as cold as ice, and his arrogant eyes turned fierce. The words "Why are you being so perfunctory with me?" were etched on his cheeks. The fierce aura of Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion seemed capable of swallowing a whole golden-eyed black dragon king whole!

"I have no objection. How to make Cerberus willingly sacrifice himself is up to you two." Electrolux, an old and shrewd man, dispelled the gray shield, letting Lin Qing and Hyotei put on their acting skills!

"Snap!"

Hyotei tore through the ice with a single blow, releasing a furry dog ​​head. Cerberus shivered, its consciousness returning as it saw the three demons who had been hiding and whispering earlier. It couldn't help but shrink back, warily eyeing them.

"Cerberus, your life is mine!"

With a roar from Hyotei, Cerberus was so frightened that its fur stood on end. It watched helplessly as one of the twin-tailed, violent loli's hands transformed into Hyotei's claw, howling with evil wind as it fell straight towards the dog's head!

"Spare the dog!"

Lin Qing reacted quickly, grabbing Hyotei's charging figure and saying irritably, "You don't know the value of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household. The dimensional artifact urgently needs energy to evolve, how can you waste Cerberus's precious life like this?"

"It seems so. Okay, then you come here."

Hyotei pretended to agree, took a step back, and returned the executioner's position to Lin Qing.

"Wait a moment!"

Cerberus barked loudly!

"This isn't right. You took me away from the underworld, did you just want to kill me?"

With all three heads burning at the same time, Cerberus couldn't understand why one of them should play the good cop and the other the bad cop, trying to subdue him. Instead, after all that discussion, they turned out to be two murderers vying for the right to execute him!

"Otherwise what?"

Lin Qing and Hyotei asked in unison.

Ice Emperor sneered, "What do you think you are? There are at least eighty or one hundred 100,000-year-old soul beasts in Douluo Continent, and there are double-digit numbers of ferocious beasts. What makes you think you're worthy of our time?"

"Who would have thought that Cerberus, the three-headed hound, was actually an ordinary creature from the underworld!"

"Dog, I only brought you out hoping to kill you with the Underworld Emperor Sword and absorb your energy to nourish the dimensional artifact. You must have misunderstood, right?" Lin Qing chimed in, the two working together seamlessly as if they were telepathically in sync.

"I----"

Cerberus looked around, feeling completely lost and helpless. All that was in front of him was Lin Qing and Hyotei, the twin stars from the remote and impoverished area. Electrolux, on the other hand, looked completely indifferent and aloof.

"Cherisher of the Underworld, I know I was wrong. I was foolish and deceived by the divine position promised by the God-King. Please give me another chance. From now on, I will be a loyal hound of the Underworld and tear those heinous invaders apart for you!" Cerberus pleaded pitifully.

The dog's backbone has been broken by the enemy. Its strong desire to survive far outweighs its loyalty. It would not hesitate to serve three masters!

"You don't know you're wrong, you're about to die."

One wielded a sword, the other held pincers; the two approached Cerberus slowly and menacingly. Cerberus, his mind a jumbled mess, stammered, "Spare my life! I know a secret about an intruder that you'll absolutely love!"

"Tell me about it." Gemini paused their steps.

"The God Realm's ambitions are far greater than just the Underworld of Douluo Continent!"

In order to survive, Cerberus revealed all his secrets like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "The God-King is a dual-god body, with two divine positions, one a first-level god and the other a God-King. He is plotting to seize the position of the Underworld God, but in reality, he is advancing to become a first-level god and transforming into a god among gods who are both God-Kings in one body!"

However, a first-level god cannot be compared to a god-king; the gap between them is greater than that between a god and a mortal.

The divine positions nurtured solely by the Douluo Underworld are far from enough to satisfy the ambitions of the God King. The invaders' ultimate goal is to use the Douluo Underworld as the core, connect all the underworlds under the control of the God Realm, gather the vast energy of a hundred underworlds, and jointly nurture a God King's throne!

"You are a chosen one of the underworld, possessing the inherited memories of a dimensional artifact in your mind. You know that the underworld governs the cycle of life and death for the dead, and that the unification of the underworld is almost the opposite of the divine realm. It is self-evident what the God-King desires: he wants a complete underworld comparable to the divine realm, to rule both the divine and underworld realms as a dual God-King!"
