r104: Convincing the Ice Emperor
The restrained Ice Emperor panicked for a moment, but soon calmed down. Boran said angrily:"Tian Meng, you actually colluded with humans to harm the soul beasts!"
Tian Meng shook his head and said calmly:
"Bing'er, if I remember correctly, in another ten thousand years it will be your 400,000-year catastrophe. Your origin has been damaged, and the possibility of surviving the 400,000-year catastrophe is almost zero..."
The Ice Emperor snorted coldly and said disdainfully,
"Even if I perish under the heavenly tribulation, it is far better than being a traitor who betrayed my race. Tianmeng, there is no point in talking any more. Just act. I believe that the soul beasts in the Far North will avenge me."
Tian Meng sighed and said helplessly:
"Bing'er, why do you think that I, Tian Meng, would be that kind of soul beast? Everything I did from beginning to end was for us to become gods and achieve eternal life. As for the process, I accept that it may be considered a betrayal in your eyes, but no one can stop my obsession of becoming a god with you…"
Bingdi sneered and said:
"Is this the way you want to help me? Helping humans to hunt down this emperor, your method is unique..."
Tian Meng was somewhat helpless, so he had to turn his head and said to Shen Hanyu:
"Hanyu, I leave it to you. I have done my best."
Shen Hanyu nodded and said with a smile:
"Bingdi, nice to meet you. My name is Shen Hanyu, and I am Tianmeng's...companion..."
"Haha, human, you can kill me or chop me up as you please. You are just a quasi-titled Douluo. Do you really think you can absorb my spirit ring? In other words, once I die, you will face the wrath of the entire Far North. Leave now, and I am willing to spare your lives..."
Bingdi's voice sounded without any emotion, and his tone was full of indifference and confidence.
Shen Hanyu disagreed. Eight extraordinary spirit rings lit up, which startled the restrained Ice Emperor, and then his anger grew even stronger:
"Tian Meng! You bastard, you actually led this human to hunt down so many powerful soul beasts, including a ferocious beast. I must kill you, the traitor! I must kill you…"
"That's enough!"
Shen Hanyu shouted coldly, and a light flashed on his right arm. An invisible and terrifying pressure fell on the Ice Emperor. It was a comprehensive suppression from the attributes and soul power. No matter how powerful the Ice Emperor was, he was suppressed to death by this aura.
"Bingdi, the reason I am willing to explain to you is because you are Tianmeng's sweetheart. Otherwise, you would have already turned into dry bones and buried here."
"As you can see, I am Tianmeng's choice, and also Tianmeng's most correct choice. I carry the inheritance of the three great gods. The only hope for you soul beasts to repair their completely cut off path to becoming gods lies in me. Don't annoy me when I still have hope for the soul beast clan. Otherwise, in order to become a god, I would even kill all the soul beasts in the Far North to obtain their life energy."
"The conflict between races can no longer be reconciled. The only thing left is balance. I am willing to act as that tiny bit of balance in the middle, but I am also willing to completely cut off that tiny bit of balance. You only have two choices now. Either die, or listen to me carefully before making a choice..."
"But in fact, I don't give you any choice. You only have one way to go, which is sacrifice. If you explode here, there are countless people in the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan for me to choose. To tell you the truth, my second martial soul is the residual soul of the two first-level dragon kings in your soul beast world. It is powerful enough to transform into a god-level martial soul. This also shows that I have accepted a favor from the soul beasts and I don't want to do too much..."
Bingdi was silent and didn't speak for a long time. Only the whistling sound of the wind was heard.
"Human, is what you said true?"
Bingdi asked, his tone no longer so explosive, but extremely cold.
"I don't need to lie to you. My right arm soul bone comes from the Ice Dragon King, and my left arm soul bone comes from the Fire Dragon King. I also inherited the legacy of the first-level deity, the Ice God. I don't believe you can't feel this aura..."
Shen Hanyu returned to his previous appearance, and even had a smile on his face, which was completely different from his previous appearance.
The Ice Emperor felt it carefully and indeed felt two unusual energies on Shen Hanyu. Those energies were far more powerful than soul power. One of them even made her want to surrender. It was the purest ice-attributed divine power.
"Human, I need time to think."
Bingdi's voice became softer, but still contained no emotion.
"You don't have time to think about it. You only have this one chance. I swear on my martial spirit that I will lead you to become gods. Now, you can tell me your answer."
…
There was another long sound of wind.
The wind and snow turned into a pure sky covering the world, lonely and magnificent, evoking the area in people's hearts that they least want to touch.
"I promised..."
Bingdi's somewhat hoarse voice spread out, which was different from her high-spirited self not long ago, and was full of finality and depression.
"Smart choice, you won't regret your decision."
Shen Hanyu smiled and clapped his hands, and everything that was restraining Bingdi disappeared.
A blue bead slowly appeared in Shen Hanyu's hand, forcing the Ice Emperor to transform into a human form. An ice-blue mark fell directly into the Ice Emperor's sea of consciousness, and then became motionless.
Bingdi's expression changed drastically and he asked,
"What is this?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Shen Hanyu played with the blue beads and said with a smile:
"It's just a simple safeguard. This is a trace of divine power that I can control. I will place it in your spiritual sea. Once you do something to hurt me, it will be detonated, and you will not survive."
Bingdi looked at Shen Hanyu coldly, and felt that the young man in front of her was more and more cold and terrifying. She felt fear from him, something that had not appeared in her for hundreds of thousands of years.
"You are such a horrible human being..."
Bingdi said softly, his body slowly relaxed, his somewhat short body slowly floated up, looking directly at Shen Hanyu, and asked:
"Are all the soul beasts you killed from the Far North?"
Shen Hanyu shook his head, and helplessly summoned Shuang Ying, saying,
"My sixth soul ring comes from a 100,000-year-old fallen sea monster. It is a sea soul beast and has nothing to do with the Far North."
"The seventh soul ring comes from Tianmeng. It is a voluntary sacrifice to accompany me in my godhood."
"The eighth soul ring comes from a 200,000-year-old frost snake demon. You should also know it. It is also a voluntary sacrifice."
Shuang Ying looked at Bing Di, a smile appeared on her lips, and she said:
"Long time no see, Hyotei."
Bingdi looked at Shuangying with a trace of reminiscence in his eyes. After a while, he said softly:
"It's you. I didn't expect that you would choose to become a human spirit ring."
Shuang Ying shook her head and said:
"It was fate that made me choose Han Yu instead of humans. I never believed in fate before he showed up. I didn't have much time left to live. Even if these things were just his last counterattack before death, I was willing to spend it all with him..."
