Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 228 Heartbeat

Audu was no longer unprepared for Ning Feiliu; in fact, he was getting serious.

However, Ning Feiliu still kicked him away in one go.

This is enough to prove that... the kid in front of him is no ordinary person.

At least he not only failed to withstand the force of Ning Feiliu's kick, but also didn't have time to react and dodge it.

So this kid's strength and speed are terrifying...

Odu's intuition told him that Ning Feiliu was not someone to be trifled with.

but……

Ning Feiliu is alone and so young. How powerful could she be, even if she's not someone to be trifled with?

Could this kid be a Soul Saint?

If he's just a Soul Emperor, then with three Soul Emperors and two Soul Kings here, surely they're no match for him?

Moreover, how could he possibly be a Soul Emperor? This young kid is at most a Soul King. He probably takes good care of himself to look so young with his fair and tender skin.

As for that strength and speed, it's probably from a Soul Master born into a powerful family...

However, Audu regained some composure. Although he looked down on Ning Feiliu, he still whispered to Huang Laosan and his companions, "This is a tough one, don't panic!"

He was quite prestigious, and upon hearing him say that, Huang Laosan and the others stopped.

However, Huang Laosan, still somewhat controlling, said, "Boss, are we just going to leave these girls alone?"

He fled all the way from the Kingdom of Häagen-Dazs to the far north, only visiting brothels twice and capturing a village girl to vent his frustrations along the way.

But how can those women compare to these young and beautiful girls in front of us?

In addition, because those bastards from the Spirit Hall's enforcement team have been chasing him relentlessly for the past two months, he hasn't touched a woman for two months.

Huang Laosan, of course, couldn't hold back any longer.

He was wanted by the Spirit Hall because his small head couldn't control his big head and he killed the daughter of a nobleman in the kingdom.

Now you're sure he won't be able to control you.

In fact, they weren't originally a group. They just found common ground on the run and thought that more people meant more power, which would be better for fighting against the Spirit Hall's enforcement team.

That's why we all travel together.

Although they were sworn brothers on the surface, and Audu had some prestige, it was impossible for everyone to really listen to Audu completely.

Audu sneered and said, "Don't rush, we'll make our move later. This pretty boy thinks he can be a knight in shining armor? Not so easy."

After waiting for a while, they saw that the Soul Masters who had been looking at Shui Bing'er and the others with evil eyes at the outer gate of the Far North City had all passed through and entered.

At this moment, however, they all focused their attention on Shui Bing'er and the others.

Clearly... they, like Audu and Huang Laosan, were fugitives and degenerates.

Ning Feiliu, however, remained calm and turned to Shui Bing'er and the others, saying, "Let's go."

Shui Bing'er and the other girls nodded, and they didn't panic either.

because……

During the year they traveled with Ning Feiliu, Ning Feiliu intervened quite a few times.

They all have absolute trust in Ning Feiliu!

After Ning Feiliu and the girls headed directly into the far north city, the people who had just entered eagerly followed them.

Ao Du and Huang Laosan, who were somewhat aware that Ning Feiliu was no ordinary person, followed behind the crowd.

Just when they thought Ning Feiliu and the girls were going to seek refuge in a more populated area of ​​the far north city.

They followed Ning Feiliu and the girls, but the further they walked, the more they discovered...

They arrived at increasingly remote places.

Far North City was a remote and desolate border town. Apart from exiled criminals and imperial officials and soldiers, there were only a few thousand people living there.

There are few people, and the climate is extremely cold.

Therefore, many places are very remote.

Ning Feiliu and Shui Bing'er kept walking and walking until they stopped, as if they had finally found their destination.

"Kid, looks like you're pretty smart." One of the men following behind them chuckled lewdly, saying, "Come on, beauties, I'll have some fun with you... all night long!"

However, Ning Feiliu ignored it, simply looked around, and said, "Is everyone here?"

"What? Everyone's here?" another man chuckled wickedly. "Brothers, seven girls aren't enough to go around. How about we rent a hotel and... have some fun together?"

"Good idea! We're all in the same boat, just looking for women. No need to ruin our relationship over a few girls," another man said. "Then let's take these chicks to a hotel together—"

However, before he could finish speaking, he suddenly clutched his neck, which had been slashed open and was bleeding profusely, and collapsed.

"It's truly disgusting." Ning Feiliu already had two unique martial spirits in her hands, a blood-red short scythe and a jade-green long spear, and said coldly.

Five seemingly ordinary soul rings appeared beneath his feet: two yellow, two purple, and one black.

It was he who, without anyone knowing when, suddenly attacked and used the Soul-Severing Strike to slit the man's throat.

What's the point of letting this guy spew such foul language say anything?

Ning Feiliu chose to end his life directly.

"You brat! You killed my brother! I'll fight you to the death!" Suddenly, another man stepped forward angrily.

However, just when everyone thought Ning Feiliu was about to make another move, even Shui Bing'er thought a great battle was about to break out and prepared to help Ning Feiliu fight...

However, they saw the first spirit ring slowly rise from the spirit rings swirling beneath Ning Feiliu's feet.

But it first tore away its bright yellow disguise, turning into a pitch-black soul ring.

A ten-thousand-year-old spirit ring?!

But before everyone could finish being shocked, Ning Feiliu's ten-thousand-year soul ring, which had been disguised, shattered!

A terrifying power, seemingly capable of freezing time and space, erupted, accompanied by Ning Feiliu's extremely cold voice—

"The Call of the God of Ice and Snow!"

next moment……

A clear bird song seemed to pierce through the space, resounding throughout... the far north city!

It was as if the loud bird song could be heard even in the vast ice plains outside the far north city.

At the same time, extremely low temperatures spread from the sky!

Everyone seemed to see in the sky a giant divine bird, its entire body frozen in ice and snow, spreading ice, snow and storms across the world!

"Rip—!"

A violent blizzard instantly enveloped the twenty-odd Soul Masters with ulterior motives in front of Ning Feiliu!

At this point, there's no need for him to hold back; the simplest and most effective way is to just use his special ability to kill these guys!

……

The far north, the core region.

In this extremely remote place, a pale woman, as if formed from the icy snow and ice, and as divine as a goddess, suddenly looked in one direction.

because……

"This aura... it's so familiar..." Xue Di carefully sensed this power that made her tremble, submit to, and feel so familiar!

and also……

"Hiss—!!!"

That bird's cry, which resounded through the sky, was filled with a sacred and domineering aura, as if it were ruling over all living beings.

Not only the Snow Empress, but all the soul beasts in the far north heard this and immediately prostrated themselves, lowering their proud heads!

……

A mountain landscape covered in ice and snow.

Here, hundreds of powerful Ice Jade Scorpions were either sharing food, absorbing and exhaling ice-attribute free soul power to improve their cultivation, or... completing the important task of reproducing their species.

But at this moment, they all stopped what they were doing and lay down on the ground as if in pilgrimage and submission.

Among them, atop the mountain, there is an enormous and exquisitely beautiful scorpion.

Its two front claws were each a meter long, and they were covered with strange hexagonal protrusions that looked like diamonds. Only the frontmost claws and mouthparts were silvery-white with a mirror-like luster.

What caught everyone's attention most were its eyes.

Its eyes are yellow, like two yellow diamonds set in them, and they are also hexagonal.

The crystal-yellow light shimmered, giving it a dazzling, precious appearance.

If its upper body is already dazzling enough, then its long, upturned tail at the rear of its body is the core of all its splendor.

Unlike the multi-segmented tails of ordinary scorpions, Hyotei's tail has only five segments, each an alluring emerald green that shimmers with a vibrant, life-giving luster. The five segments are all the same color, with the one closest to the upper body being the widest and gradually narrowing towards the back.

In the final section, the tail hook, also adorned with diamond particles, is raised high, its very tip shimmering with a silvery-white mirror-like luster.

How could such a soul beast, which is as dazzling as a gemstone, not deserve the title of "extremely beautiful"?

Moreover, simply describing it as extremely beautiful is rather pale and inadequate.

It is none other than... one of the rulers of the far north - the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, nicknamed the Ice Emperor!

But at this moment, she was also staring intently in one direction...

"That aura... a deity? The God of Ice and Snow? The God of Ice and Snow who belongs to us soul beasts?" Ice Emperor said excitedly.

……

the other side.

On the vast ice and snow plains.

Countless snow-white giants also prostrated themselves at this moment, kneeling on the ground as if on a pilgrimage.

One of them was a huge white giant whose entire body seemed to be covered in ice and snow. Its size was more than ten meters, and the giant ape's figure looked as majestic as a small mountain.

However, his body hair was all snow-white, and with the snowflakes and ice crystals that had condensed on it, he really looked like a snowman.

Titan Snow Demon King, nicknamed Ah Tai, was a super soul beast with a lifespan of over 200,000 years, even though its strength was not comparable to the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts during the Douluo Continent era.

At this moment, he also looked in the direction that the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress were looking, and said in a low voice, "Such a powerful aura... but why... is it also a bit weak? It's very much like our soul beasts, and also like the Snow Empress's aura, but why is there something else about it?"

His already not-so-bright mind was now even more muddled, but...

"I wonder how Xue Di is doing now..." Atai said, in a sycophantic manner, lost in his fantasies.

It can only be said that this is truly Douluo Continent. No matter what species humans or soul beasts are, as long as they have a brain, they are all love-struck.

Despite being 100,000-year-old soul beasts, and even super soul beasts, Ice Emperor and Atai couldn't forget Snow Emperor. But this longing wasn't about devouring her to become stronger.

It's absurd to say that it's purely driven by romantic feelings.

……

But there is another little-known corner.

Deep underground, a huge, plump, white ice silkworm awoke slightly, somewhat dazed.

This time, instead of falling asleep immediately, it was awakened by the bird's chirping and immediately became energetic.

"Is this... the power of a god? Are there really gods?" The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was somewhat excited, but it fantasized, saying, "Maybe in a while... I can also reach the realm of a god. My cultivation is improving very quickly now!"

After all, it had an inexhaustible supply of ten-thousand-year-old cold marrow by its side. Over the past ten thousand years, it had simply eaten and slept, and slept and ate, and had already broken through to the level of a five-hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast.

and so……

If it keeps eating, it will surely become a god too.

But soon it took a bite of the massive ancient cold marrow beside it and fell into a deep sleep again.

……

The far north, the core region.

Xue Di was stunned at this moment, and she could feel that familiar aura not far away.

This is different from before; before, it was in a completely different location.

That was within the territory ruled by humans.

But now, this aura is in the far north...

It was right next to her, not far away!

How could she not be excited? She was now really eager to try it out.

Especially... that aura really gave her a feeling of closeness and longing.

Not only did that aura possess a power as strong as a god, like the god of ice and snow.

Also because...

Xue Di felt that the aura, like her own, was not an ordinary being, but a being formed naturally...!

After all, although she is a soul beast, she was not born from the mating and reproduction of living beings.

Instead, it is the Ice and Snow Maiden, a being formed from the ice and snow power of the core region of this far north. It can be said that the far north is her parents.

But those in the far north cannot speak, are not living beings, and have no consciousness.

Therefore, it cannot give Xue Di any of the "warmth" she wants, only endless cold.

However, because the Snow Empress, this ice goddess, had never experienced the warmth of her parents and was born alone, it was this loneliness that made her cold-hearted, while also making her yearn for beings like herself.

Now she could truly feel that the other person's aura... was just like hers.

They are creatures born of nature. If so, then they are brothers and sisters, they are family!

Therefore, Xue Di really wanted to see the other person!

It wasn't just to ask how to become a god, but also to meet this relative who might be like her!

"It's not far away...it's not far away..." Xue Di was quite conflicted and excited, but suddenly made up her mind.

She instantly teleported several miles away, saying, "I want to... see my brothers and sisters, my family!"

Snow Emperor headed straight for the northernmost city, located on the southern edge of the far north!

It's something like insurance; that's how the outline was designed from the beginning, so that the protagonist can have a bodyguard when he goes on a killing spree, allowing him to escape smoothly.

After all, if the protagonist really didn't have a background, he would only be killed by Tang Chen if he went to the City of Slaughter. So, after thinking about it, I designed a plot where the Snow Empress becomes a soul spirit and acts as a bodyguard.
