Chapter 35: Strange Fire Ring?

The voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sounded again, explaining: "The second martial soul given to you by my million-year spirit ring currently only has attributes, but no form. When you absorb the first ice-attributed spirit ring, your martial soul will be finalized. Whatever spirit beast you absorb the spirit ring from, then that will determine your second martial soul. I have arranged everything for you from now on."

"Tian Meng, what are your arrangements for me next?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded, not quite understanding.

"When you have time, I will take you to the far north, where you can obtain your second martial soul." Tianmeng Bingcan said.

As Tian Meng finished speaking, Yao Lao's voice suddenly rang out: "Big Bug, you just said that the second martial soul you gave Xiao Yan only has attributes but no form, right?"

"Yes, old sir." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm nodded obediently.

After swallowing his saliva, a gleam of light flashed in Yao Lao's eyes, and then he slowly spread out his palms, and a faint cold feeling began to linger in his palms.

"What happened? Why did it suddenly become cold?" Noticing the sudden drop in temperature around it, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm murmured in confusion. The next moment, its face suddenly changed, and it stared at Yao Lao's palm. There seemed to be a ball of dark white flame there, and an extreme chill actually seeped out from it.

"Old sir, your flame is obviously very hot, but why does it give me an extremely cold feeling?" His face changed again, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was also confused by this sudden situation.

Hearing this, Yao Lao's face lit up slightly, and he said with blazing eyes, "This thing does not belong to this world, but comes from another world. It is called Bone Spirit Cold Fire, and it has two properties. When it is extremely hot, it burns everything, and when it is extremely cold, it freezes the earth. It is a peculiar flame that combines extreme heat and extreme cold."

"Bone Spirit Cold Fire? Teacher, is this the strange fire you mentioned to me before?" Xiao Yan said, staring at the ball of dark white flame without blinking.

“Yeah.” Nodding, Yao Lao’s calm face showed a rare trace of fear, and he whispered, “When I was in the Douqi Continent, I spent eight years in a dark place to obtain this Bone Spirit Cold Fire, and I was lucky enough to find it. Even though I was well prepared, I was almost burned to ashes by this ghost thing when I swallowed and refined it.”

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm asked with some doubt: "Old sir, why did you summon this thing? Is this related to Xiao Yan's second martial spirit?"

Stroking his beard, Yao Lao pondered for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then suddenly realized, and said seriously: "On the Douluo Continent, cultivation depends on absorbing spirit rings, which is nothing more than hunting spirit beasts to seize their cultivation. The essence of spirit rings should be a kind of energy, and my Bone Spirit Cold Fire also has the energy of the ultimate ice attribute. If I inject a strand of the fire into Xiao Yan's body..."

"Maybe he can condense a spirit ring through the energy of the strange fire."

"Soul rings are carriers of energy, and Bone Spirit Cold Fire is also a carrier of energy. If Xiao Yan can successfully absorb the sub-fire of Bone Spirit Cold Fire and condense it into a soul ring, then his second martial soul will be this Bone Spirit Cold Fire."

"Ah?" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's confused voice sounded, and it calmed down, then shook its head and said, "Old sir, the method you mentioned seems to be feasible, but...but I have already arranged a second martial soul for Xiao Yan."

“???” Yao Lao had a puzzled look on his face and frowned slightly.

"Ah..." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm suddenly sighed and said meaningfully: "I know that all this will be revealed sooner or later. We will be together for a long time in the future, and I don't want to hide anything from you anymore. I'll just tell you everything." Then, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm told Xiao Yan about his plan to create a god and his plan to take Xiao Yan to the extreme north to find the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion. He also told Xiao Yan about the fact that soul beasts will experience a heavenly tribulation every 100,000 years, why he chose to create a god, and that he had liked the Ice Emperor for a long time.

The so-called god-making plan is that soul beasts sacrifice their cultivation to become Xiao Yan's wisdom soul ring. The souls survive in his spiritual sea while retaining their wisdom, and then find ways to help them become gods, and finally achieve eternal life with the soul ring owner.

"Creating a god?" Xiao Yan was stunned and suddenly felt a little curious.

After listening to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's plan to create a god, Yao Lao's heart could not help but jump, but after a moment, the gleam in his eyes slowly faded, and he said in a deep voice: "The strongest Titled Douluo in this world is only half a Dou Zong in the Douqi Continent. That so-called god must be stronger than the top Titled Douluo, and its strength is probably only about Dou Zong. A mere Dou Zong is not worth Xiao Yan's pursuit."

"If I were in my prime, I could defeat a Dou Zong, or what you call a God, in three rounds without any effort!"

Hearing this, Tianmeng Bingcan was shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief. He couldn't believe that the old man in front of him was so powerful.

"But...if Xiao Yan doesn't go to the Far North to find the Ice Emperor. What should she do next? Its 400,000-year deadline is coming soon. You all know that I like Bingbing very much and I can't live without her." A complicated look flashed in his eyes, and Tianmeng Bingcan looked aggrieved and said unwillingly.

Yao Lao's old voice sounded faintly: "Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, this kind of soul beast is indeed considered a top-level soul beast in your Douluo Continent. If it becomes Xiao Yan's second martial soul, it can be considered a top-level beast martial soul."

"But, you know what? If this kind of soul beast was placed in the world I used to live in, it would be at most a fifth-level magic beast with the cultivation level of a Dou Wang. Compared to the Bone Spirit Cold Fire in my hand, it is not even on the same level."

"Big Bug, you don't have to worry too much. I have a way to help your old lover survive the catastrophe."

Hearing this, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Old sir, then tell me quickly, what is the solution?"

"In our Douqi Continent, there is a kind of elixir called the Transformation Pill. This elixir can allow a Magic Beast to completely shed its beast body and transform into a human, and from then on it will possess the long lifespan of a Magic Beast and the cultivation talent of a human." With his brows slightly furrowed, Yao Lao pondered for a while before looking up and speaking seriously.

"It just so happens that I can also refine this elixir. I just need to find herbs with the same medicinal effect in this world and then I can start refining it. In addition, I have another way, which is to let your old lover sacrifice himself like you do and become Xiao Yan's wisdom spirit ring. In this way, you two can also be together."

"As for how to choose in the end, let it make its own choice."
