Douluo Continent: The Ice King's Resurrection

Chapter 91, Section 90: Successful Fusion, Golden Light from the East

Ling Bingtian naturally didn't care about the situation outside. At this moment, he was doing his best to absorb the soul ring of the Three-Eyed Ice Fox.

Perhaps because Ling Bingtian's absolute icy breath had frozen the Three-Eyed Ice Fox's thoughts before its death, the absorption process was exceptionally smooth. It barely felt the soul vibrations unique to ten-thousand-year and one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings before passing through the most difficult absorption period and entering the safe fusion period.

If everything goes smoothly, Ling Bingtian even completed the fusion of his fourth spirit ring in only about half an hour.

While keeping watch on the perimeter, Ling Yongsheng watched as the black soul ring, radiating a dense black light, gradually disappeared above Ling Bingtian's head and merged with him.

"Okay, okay!"

Ling Yongsheng thought to himself that his grandson was such a genius that he absolutely couldn't let his child get into trouble like that bastard at Shrek Academy.

As he pondered this, Ling Yongsheng also looked up at the sky, surveyed his surroundings, felt the earth, and carefully watched for soul beasts that might appear from any direction.

Ling Yongsheng maintained his guarded posture until Ling Bingtian's aura completely subsided and became peaceful. Only then did he relax slightly and look in the direction where Ling Bingtian was sitting cross-legged.

The ten-thousand-year soul ring above Ling Bingtian's head disappeared completely the moment Ling Yongsheng looked over, but the next second, it reappeared along with two other purple and one black soul rings, hovering behind Ling Bingtian.

Looking at the two crimson eyes peeking out from his grandson's mask, Ling Yongsheng felt as if he could see two ice phoenixes soaring in the sky.

"Grandpa, I've successfully absorbed it. Let's retreat." After regaining consciousness, Ling Bingtian immediately retrieved the soul ring that had been unconsciously released, leaving only his ice armor and wings to increase his movement speed.

"Alright, let's go." Satisfied with his grandson's cautious nature, Ling Yongsheng and Ling Bingtian began to head towards the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Before leaving, Ling Bingtian didn't forget to put the corpse of the three-eyed ice fox into his own Ice God Small Space.

A fairly complete 50,000-year-old soul beast corpse is hardly a cheap find.

Then, the grandfather and grandson headed straight towards the nearest edge, leaving behind a small pool of blood seeping from Ling Bingtian's icy heart, proving that a three-eyed Ice Fox with 50,000 years of cultivation had once existed there.

……

After traveling for two hours, Ling Yongsheng and Ling Bingtian noticed that the surrounding environment had become much newer, and the trees and other vegetation were not as ancient as those in the mixed zone and the outer zone.

Only then did the two dare to be certain that they were safe. It was impossible for a 100,000-year-old soul beast to easily set foot on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest for the sake of a 50,000-year-old soul beast, as that would break the rules of the forest.

"Alright, we should be safe now. Xiao Tian, ​​how's your fourth soul skill?" Having observed that Ling Bingtian was quite alert, Ling Yongsheng nodded inwardly, but outwardly asked Ling Bingtian without revealing his thoughts.

"That couldn't be better, Grandpa." Ling Bingtian finally relaxed his tense nerves.

Even in the most remote areas, the strongest soul beasts generally do not exceed the cultivation level of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

Soul beasts with over ten thousand years of cultivation will be forced by the king of the forest to enter the mixed circle for even more brutal battles.

Of course, unless it is the king of a tribe, it can remain on the periphery for a short time until a new king is cultivated, but it will not last too long.

Therefore, Ling Bingtian dared to relax his mind a little.

After all, he had already killed high-level soul beasts that were 50,000 years old. Even if he encountered a 20,000-year-old soul beast that was extremely rare in the border areas, what could it do to him?

It's just adding a dish to my dinner.

"Grandpa, my fourth soul skill comes from the Three-Eyed Ice Fox's strongest innate soul skill, called Bewitching Ice Phoenix Dance." Ling Bingtian stretched his body and slowly explained his fourth soul skill to Ling Yongsheng.

"When I unleash the Enchanting Ice Phoenix Dance, my soul power and spiritual power are simultaneously activated, creating a freezing and confusing effect on hostile targets around me."

"If the enemy's strength is too far behind mine, I can even keep their senses confused, just like the Three-Eyed Ice Fox."

"Mystic Ice Phoenix Dance! Not bad, not bad!" Ling Yongsheng's eyes narrowed with a smile as he listened to Ling Bingtian's explanation, feeling very satisfied with his grandson's fourth soul skill.

The grandson's fourth soul skill can be considered a group attack soul skill, and its quality is quite powerful.

If combined with his domain-type soul skill based on his spine, it would likely have an even more powerful effect.

"grandfather."

Just as Ling Yongsheng was still satisfied with Ling Bingtian's fourth soul skill, Ling Bingtian spoke again, drawing Ling Yongsheng's attention.

"My Eye of Fortune seems to have been strengthened along with my cultivation. Now, I can sense the presence of the purple light pillar and bamboo light within a certain range," Ling Bingtian said.

"What?"

Ling Yongsheng's face showed obvious surprise. The Ling family's higher-ups had been having a headache about the task passed down by the Martial God, as they simply couldn't find a suitable person to train.

Ling Bingtian, the only one with quick judgment, would never be allowed by the Ling family to go out and find talent.

Apart from Ling Bingtian, if anyone else wanted to determine whether someone had martial arts talent, they could only test it little by little with their soul power, which was too costly in terms of manpower, material resources, and financial resources.

Even the Ling family cannot withstand such a drain.

However, if Ling Bingtian could provide a general area, the search would be much faster.

"That's great. I'll take you back to the North first. If we're quick enough, we can explore most of the North before your school starts."

Ling Yongsheng's first thought was to take Ling Bingtian back to the Northern Territory to find suitable talents for the Ling family to cultivate.

However, Ling Bingtian reached out and stopped Ling Yongsheng from acting hastily.

Meeting Ling Yongsheng's questioning gaze, Ling Bingtian slowly said, "Grandpa, we can talk about this later, but there's one thing we should do first."

"What's wrong?"

Ling Yongsheng frowned, unable to think of anything more important than completing the task assigned by the gods.

Ling Bingtian did not answer immediately, but instead followed the perception of the Eye of Destiny and looked towards the direction of the Star Luo Empire in the east.

When Ling Yongsheng asked again, Ling Bingtian finally reacted and replied, "Grandpa, I sensed a beam of light far stronger than the purple light coming from that direction."

"Even more powerful than the Purple Light?" Ling Yongsheng couldn't help but gasp for breath.

Judging from the power of Ling Bing's Eye of Fortune, a purple pillar of fortune suggests the possibility of cultivating to the level of a Title Douluo.

The dense purple light pillar, just like himself, gave him the potential to reach the level of a Super Douluo or even an Ultimate Douluo.

A fortune far stronger than the purple light? Ling Yongsheng dared not even imagine what kind of person could possess such a level of fortune.

Most importantly, what level of cultivation can someone with such extraordinary luck reach?

Ling Yongsheng already had the answer in his heart.

god!

"Can you sense the specific direction?" Ling Yongsheng asked Ling Bingtian again without hesitation.

"Not really. I can only sense a general direction, somewhere to our east. And although I'm certain this feeling is real, my perception keeps coming and going." Ling Bingtian frowned, feeling the intense sensation that came and went.

"East?" Ling Yongsheng looked eastward, his gaze shifting. That was the direction of the Star Luo Empire...

"Grandpa! A person of great destiny should not be killed lightly!" Upon seeing Ling Yongsheng's appearance, Ling Bingtian immediately realized that he had murderous intent towards the genius of the enemy country, and hurriedly shouted to Ling Yongsheng.

But the Eye of Destiny had already given him feedback: those who possess golden aura are not beings that can be easily killed.

To kill rashly would only offend the will of Heaven and ruin one's own fortune, something Ling Bingtian had already mentioned to the Ling family.

Startled by Ling Bingtian's shout, Ling Yongsheng finally realized what was happening, sighed, and let go of his killing intent.

"So, Xiaotian, what do you want to do?" Ling Yongsheng, having regained his composure, looked at his calm grandson and asked slowly.

"Those with great fortune should not be killed, but that doesn't mean they can't be won over or have their fortune borrowed," Ling Bingtian said, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Um?"

Reminded by Ling Bingtian, Ling Yongsheng realized that he had gotten himself into a dead end. He began to think along Ling Bingtian's lines of thought and found that his idea was indeed very reasonable.

So the two of them got together and began to plot.

Soon, bursts of triumphant and expectant laughter came from the two of them, scaring away many of the less intelligent birds and beasts around them.
