Chapter 502: Deep into the Lake Bottom: Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River Crushes the Ice and Fire Dragon King
Time flies.
Feihuang and the others have already been in secluded cultivation at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for a full nine months.
Over half a year has passed, and with the help of various "hacks," everyone's levels have begun to rise rapidly.
The strongest, Nan Feihuang, has already reached level eighty-seven; in fact, even without the help of the Ice and Fire Dragon King Bone, he is confident he can reach the Title Douluo realm on his own within two years.
However, in order to speed up the progress of becoming a god, it is better to obtain these two soul bones if possible.
Next is Dian Wei, at level seventy-nine, not far from becoming a Spirit Douluo.
Then there is Xun Yu, at level seventy-four, one step behind Dian Wei, but still very impressive.
Finally, Nan Feiling and Shui Bing'er are both at level sixty-six; their progress is the greatest, and the residual medicinal power of Nan Feiling's Nine Brilliance Immortal Ginseng is gradually being developed under the amplification of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
As for Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix, it is even more like Lan Xue was back then, actually able to absorb the cold energy of the Extreme Cold Yin Spring for cultivation.
Feihuang opens his eyes, and a golden light shoots out from them; the four people present feel their souls suddenly tremble, as if they are about to be ferried to the Netherworld.
"Lord, it seems you have successfully mastered the Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River," Xun Yu says with a smile.
"That's right, although I haven't reached the ninth level, the highest realm, I have reached the eighth. Now, I should be enough to go down below." Feihuang lowers his head to look at his feet.
Directly beneath this is the legendary skeleton of the Fire Dragon King.
Shui Bing'er says seriously, "Go ahead with peace of mind, Junior Brother, we will stand guard for you here; remember to be careful."
She knows that what follows is the critical moment for Nan Feihuang; by absorbing the power of the Ice and Fire Dragon King, his level will not only be able to rise to the Title Douluo realm in one go.
His fire and ice attributes, which were already infinitely close to the extreme, are very likely to become true Extreme Ice and Extreme Fire.
By then, her junior brother's combat power will rise to an incomparably terrifying level.
Feihuang nods at her, "Senior Sister, rest assured, I will return very soon!"
Having said that, Feihuang pulls off his upper garment and leaps into the lake water.
In this world, only he, having consumed the Blazing Apricot Delicate and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, can dive to the very bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well; even Lan Xue, who possesses Extreme Ice, can only cultivate on the surface layer of the Extreme Cold Yin Spring.
As Feihuang sinks deeper and deeper, he is surprised to find that, in addition to the ice and fire attribute energy surging from the endless high-temperature magma and extreme cold spring water around his body.
Deep below, there are two even more powerful energies surging toward him! Awoo~~ Vaguely, Feihuang's powerful spiritual power seems to perceive two dragon roars, filled with endless might, arrogance, dominance, and an ancient, desolate air.
There are even two faint dragon phantoms flashing by in his investigation.
"Are those the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King? Truly powerful; even as remnant souls, and even after so many years, they still possess such formidable might."
"Human, who are you? Leave this place!!!"
Two majestic voices enter Nan Feihuang's mind; if it were an ordinary person, they would likely suffer a mental breakdown from the shock.
But Nan Feihuang's spiritual External Spirit Bone has already been raised to a level comparable to a Ferocious Beast soul bone; for two remnant souls to want to injure his soul with one strike is impossible regardless.
This Ice and Fire Dragon King seems to harbor hostility toward humans, which is normal; after all, the great war of the God Realm back then was mainly human gods against beast gods.
They perished because of it, so how could they not hate humans? "Soul Shock!" Feihuang doesn't bother to reason with them; he knows it's pointless and launches an attack directly.
He doesn't care about the conflict between humans and beasts; his thinking is very simple: he is a Spirit Master who has come to hunt a Spirit Beast.
Anyway, in his view, this Ice and Fire Dragon King is just a relatively powerful Spirit Beast.
The powerful spiritual fluctuation instantly repels the spirits of the Ice and Fire Dragon King, but it does not injure them; Feihuang's spiritual power has not yet reached that level.
However, his goal is not to win by relying on this Soul Bone Skill, but merely to buy himself time.
"Stupid human, since you dare to be an enemy of us, then go to Death."
Two huge phantoms gradually solidify; they are two giant dragons, one red and one blue. Unfortunately, because they are only souls left, and extremely weak remnant souls at that, one cannot feel the might they had back then, which was even stronger than a Level One God.
Perhaps it is also because he has practiced the Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River that the pressure they exert on Nan Feihuang does not even compare to the Title Douluo of the Azure Phoenix.
The technique of the Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River is almost useless against the living, but for those whose bodies have already died and only have remnant souls lingering on, the effect is one thousand percent.
"First level—Avici Hell!" Feihuang uses the opening move of the "Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River," Avici Hell.
One sees the surrounding scene seemingly transform into the Netherworld Palace, gloomy and eerie.
This scene is invisible to normal people, so it has no effect on the living; only the dead can see the place where they are about to be judged.
The Ice and Fire Dragon King seems to see the eighteen levels of Hell; for some reason, even though they are not afraid of even a God King, their hearts are filled with fear at this moment.
From within the Netherworld Palace, countless chains suddenly extend, tightly binding the two great dragon king remnant souls.
"Sixth level of the Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River—Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River!" Feihuang stretches his arm, and after a wave, one sees the chains dragging the two great dragon king remnant souls into the Underworld River.
"Abominable human, what on earth is this? I am actually unable to control my own soul; let me go!" The two great dragon king spirits roar in Anger.
But their anger is completely useless; the technique of the "Yin Method Crossing the Underworld River" can be said to restrain them to the ends of the earth.
"This is the end, eighth level—Soul Severing at Naihe Bridge!" Feihuang clenches his palms into fists, and the chains begin to shrink rapidly within the Underworld River.
Until the huge remnant souls are completely crushed down to the size of a small glass marble.
"Hehe, easily solved; it was worth this general spending over a year bitterly practicing this unique skill aimed at the dead," Nan Feihuang says with satisfaction.
In fact, he has not practiced this soul martial art to its limit; there is still a ninth level. If he practiced to that level, he could not only solve the Ice and Fire Dragon King remnant souls but even counter-control their souls for his own use.
It is just that Feihuang feels there is no need for that.
To practice to the ninth level would take at least another half a year; he is in a hurry and does not have the leisure.
The eighth level is enough.
Having solved the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King, there are no more obstacles in front of Feihuang, and he arrives at the bottom of the lake.
He finally sees the true bodies of the Ice and Fire Dragon King; even though they have been dead for a long time, their skin and flesh have not rotted. They are worthy of being the Nine Great Dragon Kings; this physical body is not ordinarily strong.
