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

Chapter 229 Cataclysmic Disaster

Inside the far northern city.

An endless blizzard, with temperatures near absolute zero, swept away this group of fallen soul masters whose minds were filled with lewd thoughts.

However, among them were many powerful Soul Emperors. Even though the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] was far more powerful than ordinary Soul Skills, and even though Ning Feiliu was quite strong due to the successive amplification of multiple Soul Rings.

But they certainly won't be defeated so easily.

however……

The greatest strength of the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] lies not in its destructive power, but in its continuous freezing control.

One second... two seconds... three seconds...

The continuous [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] not only consumed Ning Feiliu's soul power in a percentage-based manner, but also gradually froze those soul masters who were still struggling.

Even though some of them reacted immediately, releasing their martial spirits and soul skills, however...

Five seconds later, they were all frozen into ice sculptures.

Ning Feiliu, on the other hand...

"Azure Sky! Fourth Soul Skill!"

Ning Feiliu's fourth spirit ring lit up, and he shouted, "Azure Flow and Jade Break!"

He raised the jade in his hand, and a terrifying emerald storm instantly erupted, engulfing the ice sculptures in front of him.

"Splash—!!"

Gusts of wind, like blades, tore apart the ice sculptures covered in snow and ice.

"Whoosh—! Whoosh—!"

The ice sculpture was shattered into snowflakes by the Azure Flow and Jade, and dissipated into the air.

In an instant, all the corrupt individuals who intended to commit evil deeds were wiped out by Ning Feiliu!

Shui Bing'er and the others were all in disbelief as they watched Ning Feiliu so easily kill dozens of seemingly powerful Soul Masters.

You should know... Huang Laosan and Audu were both Soul Emperor level experts.

Among these twenty-odd fallen ones, there were quite a few powerful Soul Masters like Huang Laosan and Audu.

Even if we don't say that all of these twenty-odd people are Soul Emperors, there are at least eight Soul Emperors, and three of them are even high-level Soul Emperors with a Soul Power of over level 67.

But Ning Feiliu took care of them all in an instant.

Ning Feiliu, however, thought it was perfectly normal. First of all... he used 60% of his soul power to release the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow].

With his ten-thousand-year-level spirit rings exploding, coupled with his current strength being far beyond what it used to be, he was able to unleash the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] just now.

Apart from the eight Soul Emperors, all of the twenty-odd Fallen Ones had actually frozen to death.

So after killing so many Fallen Ones, the effect of the Rune Calm and Composed activated, immediately filling the 60% soul power gap that Ning Feiliu had consumed.

The subsequent release of the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow], along with Tong Bi's fourth soul skill, Azure Flow and Jade Break, will enable them to continue controlling the remaining eight Soul Emperors and deliver the final blow.

Actually, the main problem is that these fallen ones don't seem to be very strong.

After all, they are all fallen individuals, and none of them come from prominent families or powerful forces, so the quality of their martial souls is not very good, and their soul ring combinations are not optimal.

Furthermore, they were all a little too complacent when facing such young Ning Feiliu and Shui Bing'er.

That's why they seemed to be easily wiped out by Ning Feiliu in a short period of time.

But no matter what you say...

"Fei Liu... is so strong," Xue Wu said, somewhat dazed.

They initially trusted Ning Feiliu, after all, they had seen her directly defeat some Soul Emperor level experts during their previous travels.

However, Ning Feiliu defeated those Soul Emperor powerhouses with her experience and superb skills.

This is completely different from directly unleashing two terrifyingly powerful soul skills that wiped out the twenty-odd soul masters in front of him!

This was also the first time they had seen Ning Feiliu's blessing skill—[Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow].

That's just...too powerful.

That extreme low temperature seemed capable of freezing everything.

It really made them feel like they were facing the gods.

"Alright, let's find a place to stay first. We've finally gotten rid of these disgusting guys," Ning Feiliu said with a faint smile to the girls.

They seemed not to care much about his terrifying performance just now.

Shui Bing'er looked at his familiar, handsome face, which remained completely expressionless, and her heart began to beat faster again.

Philo... is far more powerful and mysterious than they imagined.

How much does this handsome young man, who always appears gentle and composed, still know that they don't know about?

And...where does he come from?

Although Shui Bing'er knew that Ning Feiliu came from Tiandou City, she had never heard him mention his origins.

It must be some large family or powerful force...

So, Ning Feiliu, who is so powerful, outstanding, and of extraordinary birth, is really... completely unworthy of her.

Whenever Shui Bing'er thought of Ning Feiliu saying that he had someone he liked, she felt a void in her heart.

It's no wonder that only that peerless genius girl is the one Ning Feiliu loves...

Thinking this, Shui Bing'er followed Ning Feiliu and prepared to leave.

But just as they were setting off...

Suddenly, Ning Feiliu's eyes widened as she looked towards... the city wall of the Far North City!

"What's wrong, Brother Fei Liu?" Shui Yue'er asked curiously.

However, not long afterward, she discovered why...

Because she sensed a truly terrifying and powerful aura rapidly approaching from the direction of the city wall of the far north city, which Ning Feiliu was looking towards!

The girls all sensed it.

This aura, though it resembled the extremely cold and icy power that Ning Feiliu had just unleashed with the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow].

However, although Ning Feiliu's [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] felt like a god descending, its actual power was not that great, nor did it really give people a suffocating feeling of being frozen to breathe.

This aura... can truly make you feel like you're powerless to do anything and all life will be frozen.

Although... it didn't feel as oppressive as the sky when Ning Feiliu released the [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow].

However, the aura and the sense of reality are undeniably powerful!

It's like one is a statue that is as heavy as a thousand pounds but sits there steadily, while the other is a strong man with a muscular body.

Although the statue exudes an overwhelming sense of oppression, it will not fall and crush a group of people.

But a strong man can really kill someone!

And the suffocating feeling that comes with this aura...

Only someone at least equivalent to a Title Douluo could exude such a powerful aura of pressure!

In Shui Bing'er's and the others' understanding, only a Title Douluo could exert such a strong sense of pressure from miles away!

"What are you standing there for! Get out of here!" Just then, an angry shout woke up Shui Bing'er and the other girls.

It was Ning Feiliu, who had lost his previous composure.

Because at that moment, he thought of something terrible.

Such a powerful aura, imbued with the power of extreme ice, and this is a town on the edge of the far north...

Aside from the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, he couldn't think of any other being that could be so powerful.

But which of the three kings of the far north could this be?

It's unlikely that Xue Di will leave the core region of the far north. So who are the remaining Bing Di and A Tai?

Why did we suddenly arrive here?

It is well known that the relationship between humans and spirit beasts has never been good.

Although this was still the era ruled by the Spirit Hall, before the appearance of Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King, spirit beasts could only be the source of human spirit rings.

But this doesn't mean that the relationship between spirit beasts and humans is any better.

The soul beasts are only temporarily lying low because they are subdued by the powerful strength of the Spirit Hall and because there is no absolute expert like Di Tian to step forward.

The far north is also a gathering place for spirit beasts that is currently difficult for humans to set foot in.

So Hyotei and Taichi rushed out to take revenge and vent their hatred for humans?

Ning Feiliu's mind raced, and this was the only possible outcome she could think of.

The most crucial thing now is how to protect oneself.

He had no intention of going out to be a savior.

He wasn't that fearless to sacrifice himself as a savior.

Shui Bing'er, Xue Wu, and the others suddenly realized what was happening and quickly tried to back away...

but……

Before that powerful aura even arrived, a fierce blizzard had already swept through the surrounding area.

Even more impressive than Ning Feiliu's [Summoning of the God of Ice and Snow] just now.

Ning Feiliu felt alright, after all, she had consumed the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, received a blessing, and possessed great strength.

However, he was not entirely immune to the effects of the blizzard, and his movements became slightly slower.

Needless to say, Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu are even more so.

Even ice and water attribute soul masters have a higher tolerance for low temperatures.

But now, their teeth were chattering, and their speed had slowed down to that of a tortoise.

"Something's not right!" Ning Feiliu sensed the aura rapidly approaching them from behind and immediately realized something was amiss.

The other side... came for them!

Why? Why come after them?

If it's Hyotei and Artest, why do we have to come specifically for them?

Ning Feiliu couldn't understand it at all, but he knew... if they were coming for them, it would be a catastrophe!

"Bing'er! Take them and leave right now!" he shouted decisively.

Shui Bing'er immediately stopped hesitating and looked at Xue Wu beside her while shivering!

"Xiao Wu! I...we activate...the Martial Soul Fusion...fusion technique!" she said with difficulty.

"Okay...!" Xuewu replied with difficulty.

Xuewu then struggled to dance in place.

Her black hair fluttered as she danced gracefully, her four spirit rings flashing alternately, and circles of blue light spreading out with her movements.

Shui Bing'er moved and hugged Xue Wu in the blizzard.

The blue hair and black hair instantly merged into one, transforming into a dazzling blue-white beam of light that shot into the dark clouds in the sky.

Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's bodies disappeared simultaneously, and their Martial Soul Fusion Skill finally erupted.

"Snowflakes are falling!!"

Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu transformed into snowflakes that danced in the air. Each snowflake was as sharp as a blade, swirling and drifting down, turning into a vortex of ice and snow.

However, instead of attacking, they circled around Shen Liuyun and Shui Yue'er, who were already immobilized, thus isolating them from the terrifying blizzard.

"Don't worry about me." Just as the snow was about to cover Ning Feiliu, she waved her hand and said.

He looked ahead at the even more terrifying blizzard, and how, given the intensity of the blizzard, he was on the verge of collapse.

If this continues... Shui Bing'er and the others won't be able to leave.

So he needs to stall for a while here.

He wasn't going to die here; after all, he had a strong resistance to extreme cold and could walk away even if he walked slowly.

But without him to buy time, Shui Bing'er and the others would only die here.

So he had to do this for his friends.

"I'll stall for time and catch up with you later." Ning Feiliu's second spirit ring at his feet... at this moment, also broke free of its disguise and was eagerly emitting light.

"Let's go!" Shui Bing'er gritted her teeth and said immediately.

Because their abilities were truly insufficient to help Ning Feiliu.

The girls realized that if they stayed, they might become a burden to Ning Feiliu, so they had no choice but to leave quickly.

However, the blizzard intensified, and a crack appeared faintly in the swirling vortex of falling snow.

"The Call of the God of Forging...!"

Ning Feiliu made a decisive move and shattered her second spirit ring as well!

As the broken soul was launched forward, it seemed as if an ancient horn was piercing the sky from the void!

The sound of the horn was like a heavenly court falling, or a volcanic eruption, as if a majestic god wielding iron and fire was before him, roaring with thunderous fury.

A gigantic goat, seemingly forged entirely from lava and flames, suddenly appeared!

Its body is a towering ten meters tall and 30 meters long. Its huge ram horns gleam with the light of burning iron, and it roars across the world with an awe-inspiring power!

The moment it appeared, the terrifyingly high temperature seemed to have been pierced, and even the extreme low temperature of the blizzard was slightly warmed up.

This warmth might only be a rise from -100 degrees Celsius to -99 degrees Celsius.

After all, the difference in strength was simply too great.

But that's enough.

The vortex that had been protecting the girls as the snowflakes fell started spinning rapidly again, quickly retreating backward.

"drink--!!"

With a wave of his hand, the lava elementals roared and charged towards the core of the blizzard ahead.

The two consecutive ring explosions left Ning Feiliu feeling dizzy and disoriented.

He gritted his teeth and held on, his indomitable will sustaining his condition.

Actually, using the Ring Explosion once doesn't cause him any problems except for the significant depletion of his mental energy.

However... two consecutive ring explosions within a short period of time are a different story.

The consumption of soul power was nothing, because he remained calm and composed; the main impact was on his mind and body.

It wasn't because Ning Feiliu possessed Atreus's indomitable will that he was already bleeding from the nose and suffering from mental trauma.

"It's time to go..." But after launching the next attack from the molten element, he had the thought of retreating.

He's just stalling for time; he doesn't intend to sacrifice himself here.

So he should leave!

But the next moment, "Boom—"

The lava elements hadn't even run a few dozen meters before they were torn apart by the terrifying blizzard, frozen into snowflakes, and dissipated.

Ning Feiliu could sense that the terrifying blizzard was getting closer...

He could feel the extreme cold, close to -150 degrees Celsius, engulfing him and slowing his steps.

This was the first time Ning Feiliu had felt cold since swallowing the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.

As mentioned before, the fact that the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass are impervious to water and fire does not mean they are truly completely unafraid of water and fire.

Otherwise, wouldn't Ning Feiliu have been able to directly consume the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, making her invincible against ice and fire attribute soul masters, regardless of the difference in soul power level?

He's not even afraid of Title Douluos anymore?

In fact, it simply made him more tolerant of low and high temperatures.

It's roughly what they mean by "heat-resistant king" and "cold-resistant king," meaning it can withstand temperatures as low as -130 degrees Celsius and as high as at least tens of thousands of degrees Celsius.

As his cultivation level improves, this tolerance level will continue to increase.

However, the low temperatures brought by this blizzard clearly exceed Ning Feiliu's tolerance to extremely low temperatures after consuming the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.

Ning Feiliu felt this from the bottom of her heart at this moment...

cold.

The cold was so intense that it was unbearable, which reminded Ning Feiliu of a night in her childhood when a cold wave struck, and the feeling of the wind scraping her bones like a knife.

His teeth started chattering, and he tried his best to resist the cold with his soul power.

But after only a short while, Ning Feiliu was stunned.

And at that moment... he suddenly felt no longer cold.

On the contrary... it's hot.

It's very hot.

It's like he wants to take his clothes off right now.

However, at that moment...

"Fei Liu!!!" A familiar voice came from behind him.

It's... Shui Bing'er!

Her face was covered in frost from the blizzard, yet she resolutely rushed towards him!
