Chapter 98 Snow Empress Enters the Heavenly Soul
Su Tong absorbed the ten-thousand-year soul ring very smoothly, without any accidents.
The only thing that Huo Yuhao felt slightly regretful about was that the Ice Crystal Phoenix did not produce any soul bones.
"What a pity," he sighed, "the soul bones produced by a soul beast like the Ice Crystal Phoenix must be top-tier."
Su Tong didn't seem to care about this.
She clasped her hands in a fist and bowed deeply to Xue Di and Du Busi: "Thank you both, seniors."
The Snow Empress shook her head: "The soul beasts in the far northern abyss are the very soul beasts I wanted to kill."
"You were able to absorb its spirit ring, so you've made the best use of it."
"Furthermore," Xue Di paused, "who said there are no soul bones produced?"
She raised her hand and summoned the Ice Crystal Phoenix's corpse, which instantly shattered into countless tiny ice fragments.
A soul bone emanating an extremely cold aura floated slowly in mid-air.
"An external soul bone?!" Poison Undying exclaimed in surprise.
It was a soul bone shaped like wings, with wisps of cold mist flowing across its surface, and the clear cry of a phoenix could be faintly heard from within.
But it is not wings; rather, it is more like clothing.
Huo Yuhao carefully examined the external soul bone and concluded that it was formed from the feather root bone of the Ice Crystal Phoenix.
Bird feathers can be divided into several parts: rachis, vane, pedicle, and quill.
The rachis is the part that connects the central structure of the feather, the shaft, to the bird's body.
One end of the feather root bone is connected to the feather shaft, and the other end is connected to the feather sac in the skin, which contains abundant blood vessels, nerves and ligaments.
Theoretically speaking, this part can be transformed into an external soul bone.
However, compared to the more common winged external soul bones found in birds, this type of soul bone has never appeared in the world of soul masters.
A hint of amazement flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes: "Sister Su Tong, why don't you hurry up and absorb this external soul bone?"
"If I'm not mistaken, after you absorb this soul bone, it will transform into a feather robe."
"You don't need to look at me. Do you think it would look good for me to fight in a feathered robe? This isn't dragon scale armor."
Poison Undying responded in kind: "Don't look at me either, this old man has no desire to wear the feathers of the Ice Crystal Phoenix."
"Moreover, ice is incompatible with my life-and-death poison, and absorbing it would be of no benefit to me."
Seeing that neither Huo Yuhao nor Du Busi showed any intention of absorbing it, Su Tong used her soul power to guide the external soul bone and began to absorb it with her eyes closed.
At this moment, Xue Di asked Huo Yuhao, "What level are you at now?"
"Level 35," Huo Yuhao said. "Your cultivation speed has decreased significantly."
During this period, Huo Yuhao's physical tempering almost hit a bottleneck.
Therefore, his soul power improvement speed was always equal to the cultivation efficiency of a sixth-level innate soul power soul master.
If outsiders heard him say this, they would be so ashamed they would kowtow to the ground.
You've only just turned twelve and you've already become a level thirty-five Ultimate Soul Master, and you're still not satisfied.
Poison Undying's face twitched upon hearing this.
Because Xue Di was still there, he didn't give Huo Yuhao a hard knock on the head.
You only became a Soul Master last year, do you want to become a Limit Douluo now?
"Haste makes waste; there's no need to rush."
Xue Di's voice was ethereal and resonant: "After I return to the Body Sect with you, I will teach you and Su Tong."
As soon as she finished speaking, a hazy halo appeared around Xue Di.
When the halo faded, the Snow Empress, who had originally been wearing a white dress, had changed into the attire of a human soul master.
Her long, snow-white hair was tied into a high ponytail, and her elegant white outfit accentuated her slender figure, giving her a rather dashing and heroic air.
"From now on, my name is Su Wu."
The forest reveals the color of mist, and the city grows colder at dusk.
The Snow Empress named her human form Su Wu, partly because the character "Wu" (雾) represents the clearing skies after a snowfall, corresponding to the imagery of her second soul core.
Secondly, it can be considered a rough correspondence with the character "Tong" in Su Tong's name. The red clouds and misty snow can be seen as Su Tong's family members.
As long as the Body Sect and the Heavenly Soul Empire don't actively reveal it, no one would suspect that Su Wu is the Snow Emperor.
Seeing the Snow Empress in such a state, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but exclaim, "Senior, no one would recognize you as the Snow Empress in this state!"
Poison Undying nodded slightly, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.
After transforming into human form, Xue Di's temperament was no different from that of a Soul Master, and she was even more reserved than many Title Douluos.
Just then, Su Tong finished absorbing the external soul bone.
A feathered robe, as white as ice and snow, slowly emerged from her body, light and graceful, exuding a chilling aura.
Su Tong named this external soul bone "Snowy Sky Robe".
"Two capabilities."
Su Tong stated directly: "Firstly, it can give me a brief gliding ability, which can be considered as making up for my shortcomings in air combat."
"Secondly, because the Ice Crystal Phoenix's rebirth was incomplete, all the rebirth power within its body was concentrated in its soul bone."
Through the Nirvana power within the Snow Rainbow Heavenly Robe, Su Tong obtained a pseudo-Nirvana soul skill. This pseudo-Nirvana soul skill allows Su Tong to trigger an Ice Crystal Nirvana when she suffers fatal damage.
Ice Crystal Nirvana can instantly restore all of Su Tong's soul power and mental power, and briefly increase the strength of her soul power.
The reason why Su Tong called Ice Crystal Nirvana a pseudo-Nirvana is because it does not have the effect of healing injuries.
Furthermore, because this soul skill consumes the remnant Nirvana power of the Ice Crystal Phoenix, if that Nirvana power were to be exhausted one day...
Xue Ni Tianyi thus lost its ability to falsely manifest Nirvana.
The only way to replenish this Nirvana Power is through the Phoenix bloodline.
After listening to Su Tong's story, Du Busi said directly, "Soul beasts with the Phoenix bloodline are rare, but they do exist."
"Su Tong, you don't need to worry about this. I will find a way to solve it."
Seeing that Su Tong had successfully absorbed the external soul bone, the four of them decided not to linger in the core area of the far north.
On the way to the Heavenly Soul Empire, Xue Di was quite interested in the flying soul tool that Su Tong had previously shown.
More precisely, she was interested in soul tools.
The far north has always been a remote and sparsely populated area, and very few soul masters dare to venture deep into the core of the far north.
Therefore, Xue Di had absolutely no knowledge of soul tools.
After receiving the soul tools from Huo Yuhao and the other two, Xue Di examined them carefully.
"By using metal to carry soul power, one can gain various abilities."
Poison Immortal said, "If Your Majesty the Snow Emperor is interested, I will have someone make a set for you once we arrive in the Heavenly Soul Empire."
Xue Di nodded: "Okay."
She then telepathically asked Huo Yuhao if soul tools could be used on soul beasts.
Since Soul Masters can use Soul Tools to compensate for certain innate defects, there's no reason why Soul Beasts can't do the same.
Huo Yuhao seemed to be deep in thought.
The current soul guidance system is certainly not suitable for soul beasts, but if it is combined with talisman crafting and magic alchemy, it may not be impossible to succeed.
"It's theoretically feasible," Huo Yuhao said cautiously, "but it hasn't been put into practice."
"The biggest challenge is that the way soul beasts operate their soul power is different from that of humans, and the existing soul tool structure may not be able to adapt to it."
"Moreover, there are too many types of soul beasts, and designing soul tools to suit the different ways soul power is running would be too much work."
Xue Di's fingers kept rubbing the soul tool.
If the soul beasts of the far north could also use soul tools, then the overall strength of this region would definitely be elevated to a higher level.
"There's no rush," Xue Di said, landing after Huo Yuhao and the others. "There will always be opportunities to try in the future."
"We'll start the experiment with the Ice King."
It's not that Xue Di didn't want to choose Titan Snow Demon King.
Rather, its size was simply too large, and even with the full resources of the Heavenly Soul Kingdom, it was difficult to create a suitable soul tool for it.
As for the Ice Bear King, even though it can shrink its size, it still needs to revert to its original form during battle, which consumes a considerable amount of rare metals.
Therefore, the Ice King, which is about one meter tall, became the best candidate to carry the Soul Beast version of the Soul Guidance Device.
Ice Emperor transmitted his voice from the Niwan Palace: "However, the use of soul tools by soul beasts may arouse the vigilance of Di Tian and the others."
"It's alright," Xue Di replied. "We don't need to worry about what others think."
Ice Emperor wanted to continue talking with Snow Emperor, but by this time, they had already arrived outside Heaven Dou City.
On the way here, Du Busi had already informed them that the Heavenly Soul Empire had thoroughly investigated Su Tong's background.
Therefore, if Xue Di wanted to act as a member of Su Tong's family, she had to inform the royal family beforehand.
Poison is guaranteed to kill. Apart from the high-ranking members of the Body Sect and a few members of the royal family, no one else knows about Su Tong's background.
Xue Di responded that she would follow Du Bu Si's arrangements.
