Chapter 49:
The Far North.
"Xiaoqing, why are you unwilling to absorb Bingbing's soul bone?"
On the way to the outer area, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, lying on the ground with nothing to do, suddenly asked this question, "Do you think Bingbing's soul bones are not yours? You know, in this world, there are only six soul beasts with higher cultivation than Bingbing. So unless you can get all of their soul bones, otherwise, Bingbing's soul bones are the best choice."
After hearing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also mention this issue, the weak Ice Emperor slowly opened her eyes and looked over.
Obviously, she also wanted to know the answer to this question.
She admitted that she was indeed no match for Snow Emperor and Emperor Auspicious Beast in terms of cultivation and strength, but the problem was, she was not bad either.
What's more, how could it be so easy to obtain the soul bones of Emperor Auspicious Beast and Snow Emperor?
Don't forget, even if a human Limit Douluo came, it would be impossible for them to kill Emperor Auspicious Beast and Snow Emperor in their respective territories in a one-on-one or even two-on-one situation.
"No, not six, but seven."
Facing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's question, Ye Qing gently shook his head and reminded them, "Have you forgotten that there is a soul beast called the Deep Sea Demon Whale King? That fellow's cultivation level is so high that even Emperor Auspicious Beast, let alone the Ice Emperor, cannot compare to him."
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King? Why does this name sound so familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere before."
Not only Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, but even Ice Emperor had the same doubt.
"Xiaoqing, if I'm not mistaken, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King you mentioned should be the ancient giant beast that fell ten thousand years ago, right?"
Soon, Ice Emperor seemed to have thought of something, her face full of confusion. She said, "That's true, but the problem is, it's already been killed! Otherwise, the ranking of the ten fierce beasts would have changed long ago."
According to rumors, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who had cultivated for nearly a million years, died at the hands of the Sea God Tang San and was killed as part of a heritage assessment.
Although the time is too long and the authenticity of the matter cannot be confirmed, it is certain that the other party has indeed fallen now. Otherwise, the title of the leader of the ten ferocious beasts may not fall on Emperor Auspicious Beast's head.
"You're right. It has indeed fallen in your time. But if it were ten thousand years ago, it would be completely different."
Why do you think he doesn't want Ice Emperor's soul bone? Because a soul master can only absorb six pieces without counting external soul bones.
In other words, there are thirteen beings who are stronger than Ice Emperor in terms of soul bone age.
ps: I originally wanted to leave this setting to be discussed later, but after seeing yesterday's chapter, many readers were talking about the issue of Ice Emperor's soul bone, so I decided to talk about the setting of this book now.
Although this book is about time travel, you can actually think of it as two parallel worlds.
In other words, no matter what happened in Qian Renxue's era, it could not affect the plot development of Peerless Tang Sect.
The author believes that this setting is easier to write and more interesting. In this way, we can see the collision between the gods of the two eras, the Holy Spirit Sect of the Spirit Hall and Shrek, as well as Xiao Wu and Tang San.
As for the plot of the Ice Emperor's soul bone, the author admitted that he was influenced by a reader friend yesterday. He said that the Ice Emperor's age was too low, and it would be better to choose the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's.
Considering the setting of this book, the author adopted this suggestion. After all, there are ten ferocious beasts in Peerless Tang Sect, so there should also be ten ferocious beasts in the era ten thousand years ago. Therefore, in terms of soul bones, naturally choose the one that is the most powerful.
Of course, the most important reason is that soul bones are not like external soul bones that can become stronger as the soul master grows. The strength and potential they possess are related to the soul beast itself, so it makes no difference no matter when they are absorbed.
In addition, the protagonist now doesn't know whether it will affect the era of Peerless Tang Sect, so when he uses the time and space gate next time to go to the extreme north of Qian Renxue's era, he will truly understand that any development of these two worlds will not affect each other.
Therefore, readers should not focus on the Ice Emperor's soul bone, because one of the later settings is the soul bone fusion and upgrade.
In other words, if the Ice Emperor from ten thousand years ago had also sacrificed herself, the two soul bones would have merged into one, and then been absorbed. It's just that the protagonist would have to wait until later to discover this and take this step.
…
"What do you mean it would have been different ten thousand years ago?"
After hearing Ye Qing's words, both Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor fell silent.
They clearly know each character, but why do they sound so unfamiliar when they are put together?
"Hehehe, you'll know when the time comes. Anyway, after you know the truth, remember not to be surprised."
After Ye Qing said this with a smile, he quickened his pace and headed towards the direction where the battle was taking place.
At this moment, in the outer area, a short, fat old man was standing there quietly.
The wind howled, blowing his black robe embroidered with gold patterns.
"It's just killing one of your kind. Is it necessary to be so crazy?"
Seeing more and more Zhu Qing Ice Toads around him, Jing Hongchen narrowed his eyes slightly. He no longer concealed it and directly released all the pressure of the Titled Douluo on his body.
After feeling the cold murderous intent in front of them, the Zhu Qing Ice Toads quickly retreated due to their fear instinct and returned to their own cave, as if they had never appeared.
At this moment, behind Jing Hongchen, there was a girl wearing a red long dress and with a beautiful face.
Her long wine-red hair was draped behind her head, and she was sitting on the ground, absorbing her fifth soul ring.
Obviously, she is the person who is known as the most talented person in the Sun-Moon Empire in the past thousand years, and is also the granddaughter of Jing Hongchen of Mingde Hall, Meng Hongchen.
"Who is this person? He actually possesses the Zhu Qing Ice Toad Spirit!"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm stretched out its head and looked at the scene not far away and asked curiously.
Having lived in the Far North for so long, it naturally knew about the existence of the Zhu Qing Ice Toad.
"I don't know him."
Ice Emperor shook her head and replied, "But what is certain is that this human girl is very talented and will definitely become a powerful Titled Douluo in the future."
"Zhu Qing Ice Toad Spirit?"
Listening to the conversation between Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor, Ye Qing blinked and instantly knew the identities of the two people in front of him.
The head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen, and his granddaughter, Meng Hongchen.
"Who's there!"
At this moment, an angry voice rang out, and then Jing Hongchen's eyes, filled with cold murderous intent, instantly looked over here.
