Ice'er, have you made your decision?
The Snow Emperor finished soothing the Ice Emperor.
As her sister, she knew Ice Emperor's temperament all too well.
In just a short while, she managed to calm her down completely, stopping her from continuing to pick fights with Tang Feng.
"You've already sacrificed yourself to him,"
"So of course I'll sacrifice myself to him too."
The Ice Emperor was always decisive in her actions.
Even if there were only a slim chance to create a god, she would stake everything on it.
Not to mention that Tang Feng was a disciple of a Divine King, and with the Snow Emperor accompanying him, there was no reason to refuse.
"Then let's begin."
"Sacrifice yourself through the Life Imprint—you'll be able to retain your consciousness."
The Snow Emperor patted Ice Emperor's back gently.
For beings like them, a sacrifice that preserved their will was the greatest blessing imaginable.
Not only could they become gods in the future, but they could also follow Tang Feng and witness the human world even now.
"Brat, this Emperor is offering herself to you."
The Ice Emperor had already prepared herself fully.
Her only concern was whether Tang Feng could withstand and absorb her Soul Bone.
After all, it was a 390,000-year Soul Bone, far beyond ordinary ten-thousand-year standards.
"Come on. I can handle it."
Tang Feng already had a new plan in mind.
Previously, absorbing Soul Rings had been difficult because his physical body and spiritual strength hadn't reached the required level.
For example, once he reached his fourth Soul Ring, absorbing a ten-thousand-year ring would become easy.
However, to absorb his third Soul Ring, he had been forced to rely on Life Blue Silver Grass to continuously repair himself, gradually grinding the ring into a stable state.
"Begin!"
The Ice Emperor revealed her true form.
A blazing emerald-green light surged violently toward her tail stinger.
When that green deepened into dark jade,
her tail snapped upward and stabbed directly into Tang Feng's coccyx.
Tang Feng instantly felt a terrifying impact—
The power forcibly pierced his flesh and embedded itself in his bones.
The Life Imprint on his forehead began to glow.
The icy world around them melted instantly, as if all things revived, blue silver grass sprouting across the land.
"Bone before ring?"
Man Yi's palms were slick with sweat.
When the Ice Emperor stabbed Tang Feng earlier, she had nearly rushed forward to intervene.
Only the Snow Emperor had stopped her, offering a reassuring glance.
"The Ice Emperor is bestowing the Soul Bone first."
The Snow Emperor explained.
"This allows Xiao Feng to release more of the Soul Ring's power."
Tang Feng was under the protection of the Life Goddess,
so they needed to help him grow as much as possible within safe limits.
"Ice Emperor, increase the output."
"As long as my body doesn't collapse outright, it's fine."
Tang Feng's eyes turned bloodshot.
His physical body and spirit were both being continuously healed by Life Blue Silver Grass.
At this stage, the intensity of the Ice Emperor's Soul Bone sacrifice was still within his tolerance.
This was because he had activated his Divine Realm, using it to weaken the damage inflicted on himself.
Whoosh—
The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion's true form dimmed rapidly as dark-green light poured out even faster.
In an instant, the assault on Tang Feng's body and spirit multiplied severalfold.
Once again, he entered a brutal cycle of destruction and regeneration.
Even with the domain's mitigation, the tearing pain remained agonizing.
"What a madman,"
The Snow Emperor muttered.
Unconsciously, she felt admiration rise within her.
As long as he didn't kill himself outright, Tang Feng pushed himself to the brink without hesitation.
He was actually using the Ice Emperor's vast origin power to temper his physical body and spiritual strength.
"That he became the Life Goddess's disciple…"
"Even I never expected that."
Man Yi found it hard to comprehend.
A healer-type Soul Master—
Yet he had forced himself into becoming an all-rounder.
And not just competent—
but harsher, more relentless than anyone else.
"Let's hope fortune favors us this time,"
The Snow Emperor said quietly.
She suspected the Life Goddess had noticed Tang Feng's ruthless resolve toward himself.
That was why she had granted him a strand of Destruction Origin, allowing him to merge two divine powers and pursue the path of a Supreme God.
She hoped that when the Ice Emperor sacrificed through the Life Imprint, part of her origin could be mobilized to further elevate the Soul Bone and Soul Ring.
At this moment, the Ice Emperor's Soul Bone had fully fused into Tang Feng's body.
All that remained was complete integration with his skeletal structure.
"No wonder he's worthy of being a Divine King's disciple,"
The Ice Emperor thought, filled with admiration.
She hadn't expected this tiny human to endure such torment without uttering a sound.
Even a Titled Douluo might not withstand this level of physical and spiritual devastation.
"He's tempering his body with it…"
The Ice Emperor grew increasingly shocked.
According to the original plan, one hour would have been enough for Tang Feng to complete the Soul Bone fusion.
Instead, the process lasted three full days.
At this point, beneath Tang Feng's feet hovered a blood-red Soul Ring.
Four golden patterns adorned it—
clearly elevated by the Snow Emperor's origin into the 400,000-year fierce beast tier.
Tang Feng's first two orange Soul Rings were around three hundred thousand years each.
Thus, a forty-thousand-year blood-red ring was entirely reasonable.
"About thirty-thousand-year power,"
The Snow Emperor assessed.
She could clearly sense that the two orange Soul Rings she had granted Tang Feng had increased from ten-thousand-year power to thirty-thousand-year power.
Exhale—
Tang Feng opened his eyes.
He discarded his blood-soaked clothes and changed into a clean set.
Fortunately, Xu Jiujiu wasn't here—
Otherwise, she'd be worried sick seeing him like this.
"Come on,"
"I'll take you to find your fourth Soul Skill."
The Snow Emperor pulled Tang Feng to his feet.
At this moment, the Ice Emperor was happily switching between the spiritual sea and the outside world.
As Tang Feng's Soul Spirit, both Ice and Snow Emperors could leave the spiritual sea, though with distance limitations.
The farther the Ice Emperor traveled, the weaker her spiritual form became.
If she went too far, she would likely dissipate—but she could return instantly with a single thought.
"Let's go."
The four arrived at a snow cliff.
After some searching, they found a thirty-thousand-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Lotus.
This Soul Ring absorption was incredibly smooth—
Tang Feng finished in just one hour, the easiest absorption he'd ever experienced.
After all, this Soul Skill was function-oriented, not combat-heavy.
"Level 43 Soul Ancestor."
Star Cloud Douluo Man Yi was full of envy.
Even without an Extreme Martial Soul, Tang Feng's cultivation speed already carried the bearing of an Ultimate Douluo.
And yet—
He was an Extreme Soul Master whose cultivation speed would drastically slow after level thirty.
"Xiao Feng, what is your fourth Soul Skill?"
The Snow Emperor asked curiously.
She had no idea what effect would emerge when Life Blue Silver Grass absorbed a Snow Lotus.
"My fourth Soul Skill is called Purification."
"It removes all control effects from the target."
"And it can summon three Snow Lotus Flowers, granting ten seconds of control immunity."
Tang Feng's skill resembled Ning Tian's second Soul Skill,
but with an added ten seconds of control immunity, usable on up to three targets.
As for the Concept-level Trait activated upon breaking into Soul Ancestor—
It never disappointed.
[Divine Sanctified Land]
Within a ten-meter radius, all negative states are cleansed, and all evil or corrupted forces are purified.
This trait leaned toward support, though its range would expand with soul power.
Fortunately, Tang Feng already possessed the Divine Realm,
where one foot before him meant absolute invincibility.
Within that domain, he was already immune to control.
But Divine Sanctified Land could purify corruption—
which made him think of his unfortunate sister.
His sister Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass carried a dark attribute that devoured blood essence.
Perhaps…
This purification could cleanse it as well.
