Half a day later, the periphery of the ice sea.
After leaving Mingdu, Wang Chen headed to the Extreme North, joined forces with Snow Empress, and together they arrived at the ice sea.
Wang Chen and Snow Empress flew side by side in midair, conversing as they went.
Snow Empress said solemnly, "The Sea Princess, as the ruler of this ice sea domain, has cultivation reaching six hundred thousand years—slightly inferior to mine in raw power.
But she is a spirit-attribute soul beast; her mental power far surpasses mine, and her soul skills are bizarre and extremely difficult to deal with.
Moreover, the Sea Princess is not alone—she is the clan leader of the mermaid tribe.
I remember she has two daughters, both powerful soul beasts with one hundred thousand years of cultivation, plus numerous ordinary clan members with ten thousand years.
The mermaid tribe has an ancient inheritance and has always devoutly worshipped the Sea God. Their clan can unite the mental power of all members to jointly unleash soul skills of immense power.
At the very least, I alone cannot contend with the entire mermaid tribe.
To kill the Sea Princess in the ice sea, even with you and me combined, the difficulty is great.
If we can lure them onto land, it will be much easier to handle.
Because sea soul beasts that leave the ocean for land have their strength greatly weakened…"
Snow Empress told Wang Chen everything she knew about the Sea Princess.
Wang Chen nodded gravely after listening. This Sea Princess and the mermaid tribe indeed had their strengths; he could not be careless.
Otherwise, if the Sea Princess saw the situation turning bad and dove into the sea, they could only stare helplessly.
If they pursued her deep into the ocean, not only speed and mobility but even attack power would be weakened by the sea, while the Sea Princess would be strengthened. One weakened, one enhanced—who would kill whom was uncertain.
Therefore, they must find a way to fix the battlefield on the sea surface and prevent the Sea Princess from diving in.
A sharp glint flashed in Wang Chen's eyes as his mind raced at high speed.
After absorbing the pills that enhanced his physique and mental power, his strength had improved significantly. His physique had caught up to his mental power, both reaching the Limit Douluo level.
The only area where Wang Chen fell short of a Limit Douluo was soul power, but even that was not weak—he could rival a level 95 Super Douluo, and the quality of his soul power was stronger than most Super Douluo.
Add to that the terrifying amplification from six one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings and one million-year soul ring.
Now, even without using the ring explosion secret technique, relying on the amplification of seven soul rings and the might of the Town God Spear, Wang Chen could fight a Limit Douluo. If he used the ring explosion technique, he could suppress a Limit Douluo.
With his current physique matching a Limit Douluo, he could explode more rings when using the technique.
Given Wang Chen's present physique and abundant vitality, detonating five one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings in one breath would absolutely cause him no harm.
Previously, when facing Long Xiaoyao, Wang Chen's strength was weaker than now, yet by risking severe injury to explode Ice Empress's four-hundred-thousand-year soul ring, he directly shattered Long Xiaoyao's martial soul true body and wounded him.
Now, exploding five one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings at once—the power would undoubtedly be even greater. And if Wang Chen risked severe injury, he could explode even more rings.
Wang Chen was confident: as long as he had the chance to use spatial confinement to pin the Sea Princess, then with the might of ring explosion, unless she had a life-saving soul skill, she would surely die without a chance of survival.
Speaking of life-saving soul skills, Wang Chen immediately recalled the original story in detail, his brows furrowing.
This Sea Princess… really did have powerful life-saving soul skills.
One was a suspected spatial teleportation-type soul skill. In the original, the Sea Princess used this to rescue her daughter Lijing, who had one hundred thousand years of cultivation, from Huo Yuhao's hands.
The second life-saving soul skill was Heart of the Ocean. This skill had two effects: first, immunity! It could nullify one energy-based attack.
Then, amplification—it would feed back the energy contained in the nullified attack to the user of Heart of the Ocean, causing their power to skyrocket, combining it with their own strength for the next strike.
Wang Chen thought to himself, "Immune to energy attacks and then returns it. If my ring explosion strike gets nullified and then returned…"
Imagining that scene, Wang Chen's eyelid twitched. As the user, he knew better than anyone how terrifying the power of the ring explosion was. If it were returned, even he couldn't withstand it.
However, Wang Chen had learned the Sea Princess's intelligence in advance and would naturally prevent this from happening.
In battle, intelligence is an extremely important factor. Knowing the enemy's capabilities beforehand allows for tailored tactics and deliberate countermeasures.
With preparation against the unprepared, the odds of victory greatly increase.
After some thought, Wang Chen immediately discussed tactics with Snow Empress—how to defeat the Sea Princess, how to prevent her escape…
Time slipped away as Wang Chen and Snow Empress conferred. When the discussion ended, the two had entered the depths of the ice sea.
The temperature in the depths of the ice sea was quite low. Above the deep blue ocean floated icebergs of various sizes.
Some icebergs were as large as islands, others only a dozen square meters. Under the sunlight, the icebergs shimmered with brilliant light, exceedingly beautiful.
Wang Chen said, "Snow Empress, it's up to you."
Snow Empress nodded. Immediately, her nearly seven-hundred-thousand-year cultivation erupted without restraint.
Terrifying soul power whipped up monstrous waves. Nearby icebergs were directly shattered with countless cracks, then sank into the sea, creating swirling vortices.
Such terrifying momentum would undoubtedly attract the attention of the ice sea's ruler—the Sea Princess.
In less than ten seconds, a figure with a human upper body and fish tail, curvaceous and enchanting, surged forth atop towering waves, emerging from the sea.
This mermaid appeared around thirty years old, with exquisite features and long blue hair flowing behind her.
Her upper body was barely covered by two white shells over her chest. Most strikingly, she wore a golden crown with a blue gem at its center, radiating nobility and majesty.
This mermaid was none other than the ruler of the ice sea—the Sea Princess with six hundred thousand years of cultivation.
The Sea Princess swayed her golden fishtail seductively. Facing Snow Empress, she too unleashed her aura. Powerful mental pressure swept out, standing equal with Snow Empress, not yielding in the slightest.
The Sea Princess looked at Snow Empress, then glanced at Wang Chen, frowning as she said, "Snow Empress, why have you left your post in the Extreme North to come to my ice sea—and brought a human with you?"
Just as Wang Chen, Snow Empress, and the Sea Princess faced off…
…
God Realm.
In Tang San's palm, a golden orb of light emerged. Through this golden light, one seemed to glimpse the vast oceans of countless worlds, dazzling and disorienting.
Tang San had spent some time setting up the divine trial and the trap for the divine position inheritance, planning to kill Wang Chen during the inheritance process.
Tang San's gaze fixed on the Douluo Star, a cold smile curling his lips. "Die in the divine trial—even Destruction won't be able to say anything!
Sea God divine position inheritance—go!"
A streak of golden light slipped from the God Realm, entering the Douluo Star…
