The remaining journey was uneventful, and the group arrived smoothly at Endless Blue Sea City.
At the seaside, after Ning Bei confirmed the direction, he led the three towards the Deep Sea Demon Spider.
Several hours later, they stopped on the sea surface 1,000 kilometers away.
Bibi Dong, Yue Guan, and Ghost all turned their gazes to Ning Bei, the meaning was simple: come on, show us!
Ning Bei didn't waste words, he recalled Da Ming and pointed towards the seabed.
Da Ming nodded, directly transforming into his original form and swallowing him in one gulp, then drilled into the sea. This operation stunned Bibi Dong and the others, and it took them a long time to recover.
"That, that is..."
"Azure Bull Python?"
"This guy is like a treasure chest, he can pull out something at random and shock people."
Several tens of minutes later, Ning Bei returned to the sea surface carrying a block of ice nearly fifty meters in diameter, summoned a cold ice floating island of several thousand square meters, and threw the ice block on it, making a loud noise.
"Done, finished."
The recovered Bibi Dong and the others landed on the floating island and looked at the ice block in front of them. They saw a spider-shaped Soul Beast over twenty meters long, covered in milky white coral, trapped inside the ice.
Bibi Dong paced back and forth for several minutes, constantly tapping the ice block, but couldn't find a place to start, and could only look speechlessly at Ning Bei, who was watching the show.
"How is this Pope supposed to start?"
"Tch, and you call yourself the Spirit Hall Pope? So weak."
Seeing that Bibi Dong was about to lose her temper again, Ning Bei stopped teasing her, came to the Deep Sea Demon Spider's forehead, and eliminated the ice there, revealing a palm-sized ice cave.
"Is this okay now?"
Yue Guan and Ghost gave Ning Bei a thumbs up to express their admiration.
Bibi Dong directly summoned her Death Spider Emperor Spirit and possessed it. The eight spider legs and ugly body in her memory did not appear. Instead, she maintained her human body, while spider legs like the Eight Spider Lances extended from her back.
Ning Bei curled his lips. He didn't expect Pope Big Sister to have a plastic surgery on her Spirit in the midst of her busy schedule? But this shape, Elise, is that you?
Bibi Dong ignored the expressions of the three and directly used her Soul Skill to launch an attack from the ice cave.
Dozens of seconds later, a Blood Red Spirit Ring slowly rose. Bibi Dong looked around and froze in place. The Soul Devouring Spider Emperor Spirit was the one lacking a Spirit Ring. If she had known, she would have given the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor a makeover first.
Under Ning Bei's suppressed laughter, Bibi Dong glared at him fiercely, then came to the ice block, sat cross-legged, summoned her second Spirit, and began to absorb the Spirit Ring. The ugly body and hideous spider legs appeared, and the Spirit Ring was slowly drawn to it.
Only then did Yue Guan and Ghost show normal expressions. That's right, what was that Spirit just now?
Several hours later, until it was getting dark, Bibi Dong slowly opened her eyes.
After putting the Deep Sea Demon Spider's corpse into the Soul Tool, Bibi Dong looked at the three with satisfaction and opened her red lips slightly.
"It's done, let's go."
"Pope Big Sister, how is the Soul Skill?"
Faced with Ning Bei's question, Bibi Dong raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Sorry, it is a taboo for Soul Masters to expose their Soul Skills, I'm afraid I can't tell you."
Hey, you stinky woman, you really flip your face faster than a book. You were just saying I could name any condition, and now you're saying exposing a Soul Skill is a big deal?
"Aiyo, just give that Soul Shaping Flower to my mom, she's not too happy with the appearance of her Spirit either."
"You dare!"
Bibi Dong instantly blew her top, glaring angrily at Ning Bei, causing Chrysanthemum and Ghost to turn their backs, looking like they couldn't see or hear anything.
"Hmph, two Soul Skills are..."
"I'm not listening, I'm not listening. Exposing Soul Skills is a major taboo for Soul Masters. You old folks better keep your Soul Skills under wraps. I'm throwing that Soul Shaping Flower into the Seven Treasure Auction House."
"Seventh Spirit Skill: Soul Devouring Sea Demon Thorn."
"Damn, you black widow, biting people randomly!"
Dodging Bibi Dong's attack, Ning Bei rebuked her.
"Hmph, now you know this Pope's Soul Skill? You dare to randomly put that Soul Shaping Flower up for auction and see what happens."
"Tch, can't take a joke."
After finishing the Soul Hunting, the group didn't delay and set out on the road back to Spirit City overnight.
"Do you think Little Snow will forgive me?"
"Hmm?"
Startled for a moment, Ning Bei found Bibi Dong's tangled little expression amusing.
"Just explain everything clearly, she's not an unreasonable person. Maybe it would be good to wait for her to come to you to talk."
Now it was Bibi Dong's turn to be stunned, asking in disbelief:
"But is she still willing to take the initiative to talk to me?"
"Who knows? If she doesn't come to you next time she returns to Spirit City, then you go to her."
Bibi Dong's eyes flickered, not knowing what she was thinking, but she didn't mention the matter again.
Back in Spirit City, the place Bibi Dong had ordered to be prepared for the Ice God Hall had already been found. Ning Bei took Yue Guan to a vacant lot in the west of the city.
This place used to be a settlement for displaced people, but now it had been cleared out. As for the extra displaced people, that wasn't Ning Bei's problem to worry about.
The Eternal Frozen Domain unfolded, and an Ice God Hall rose from the ground, standing in the western corner of Spirit City, with the same steps and Ice Tablet, the imprint of the domain, and the decorations inside the hall all completed in one go.
Yue Guan, who was beside him, clicked his tongue in amazement. Was this something a human could do? He certainly couldn't.
"Young Master Ning truly opens my eyes."
Ning Bei smiled and didn't speak, but instead took out some Ice Spirit Grass and threw it to Yue Guan.
"Ice Spirit Grass?"
Yue Guan was indeed an expert in medicinal herbs, recognizing the Ice Spirit Grass at a glance. However, he was still greatly surprised by the appearance of so many Ice Spirit Grasses all at once. He knew that this kind of spirit grass only grew in extremely cold places, and only one plant would appear in nearly a thousand years.
"That's right. When someone can climb to the top of the ice steps, you can give them the Ice Spirit Grass as a reward."
"Also, these 99 levels of ice steps can give ice-attribute Soul Masters a chance to comprehend the Frost Domain, so please help promote it."
"I understand, I will take care of things properly, please rest assured, Young Master Ning."
Having received enough benefits, Ning Bei was not worried that Yue Guan would not do his job properly. After entrusting the Ice God Hall to Yue Guan's care, he left Spirit City with peace of mind.
Returning to the Sect, the busy time finally came to an end. Afterwards, he only needed to wait for the settlement of the Ice God's Sixth Trial in a year. If he was lucky, he could directly obtain the content of the Seventh Trial.
In the following time, Ning Bei would occasionally guide the little ones in their cultivation and the use of Soul Skills.
Whenever he had time, he would go to Dugu Yan to polish the Nightglow Spirit Bone, or find Little Angel to practice singing techniques at the Ice God Hall.
His days were very pleasant. As for his own cultivation, at his level, it was difficult to make progress through meditation alone. If he wanted to improve, he had to rely on that moment of inspiration or enlightenment, and then there was the increase in Spirit Rings.
Ning Bei still had three Spirit Ring slots. By then, he could accumulate enough to reach level 99. After completing the Ice God Nine Trials, he could smoothly step into the realm of gods. At that time, he would consider whether he could rely on the Pill Tower to create a godhood himself.
Time passed slowly like this, and in the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
