Chapter 610: Ice God Inheritance: Absolute Zero Stone

Bingdi managed to steady her mind and explained, "Feihuang, I remember telling you that many years ago, my Ice Jade Scorpion tribe and the Violent Lizard tribe were natural enemies, right? Because back then, although the Extreme North was cold, it wasn't cold to this degree. The Violent Lizard tribe could still survive here, and even reign supreme. Later, it was precisely because of a legend that the Extreme North became colder and colder, until now, where it is difficult for any Spirit Beast other than those with the ice attribute to survive. Even if they come here, it is only because certain fire-attribute Spirit Beasts deliberately come to temper themselves against the cold. The places where they usually live are also the only dead volcanoes in the Extreme North that can be considered somewhat warm."

"A legend? And it's related to this stone?" Feihuang looked at the stone in his hand subconsciously; it seemed to have an extraordinary origin.

Xuedi added, "Yes, little brother Feihuang, you are knowledgeable and experienced; have you ever heard of the existence of an Ice God within the God Realm?"

"I haven't heard much. I know the God Realm should have the God Position of Ice God, but it seems I have never heard of an actual deity named the Ice God." Feihuang recalled all the original plot he had read.

The Ice God seemed to have only been mentioned in the words of others, but never officially appeared, and did not even show up later when the God of Destruction and Tang San fought in the God Realm.

The name of the Ice God, in his memory, seemed to only appear in the conversations between Tianmeng Iceworm and Bingdi. In the original work, Tianmeng Iceworm swore an oath in the name of the Ice God; if he broke his oath, he would lose all his ice attributes. It also appeared in the introduction of the Titan Snow Demon, which stated that the Titan Snow Demon was a descendant of the Ice God and the Titan Giant.

The feeling the Ice God gives is that she should be the guardian deity of the Extreme North. All ice-attribute Spirit Beasts are her subjects. The outstanding ones among them include the three great kings of the Extreme North: Xuedi, Bingdi, and the Titan Snow Demon King, and of course, the million-year Spirit Beast Tianmeng Iceworm, and Ice Bear King Xiaobai, who is no less than the Titan Snow Demon King.

However, these ice-attribute Spirit Beasts, which can be called Ferocious Beasts, were almost all wiped out by Huo Yuhao in the original work. Tianmeng Iceworm, Bingdi, Xuedi, and Ice Bear King Xiaobai successively became Huo Yuhao's soul spirits, providing him with many soul skills of infinite power.

Seen this way, the fate of the Ice God herself should not be very optimistic. Otherwise, why would these ice-attribute Spirit Beasts not seek the protection of the Ice God, but instead go to rely on the Emotion God? One possibility is that the Ice God, like the Thunder God, fell in some God Realm war. Another possibility is that the Ice God willfully abandoned her responsibilities and traveled the universe, leaving her descendants to fend for themselves from then on.

Xuedi's gaze dimmed, "Yes, there is this God Position, but this deity no longer exists, because Lord Ice God has already fallen for who knows how many years, and even her God Position has shattered. Therefore, for so many years, no new Ice God has ever appeared. Legend has it that she died in the great chaos of the God Realm back then. Because the Ice God was not human, but a beast that became a god, following the defeat of Lord Dragon God, the God Realm expelled all beast deities."

"Unless they were willing to submit to the God Realm Committee, they might only suffer the punishment of being demoted. For example, the Phoenix God, who could have been a First-Class God, voluntarily dissipated most of its godly power to survive, falling to a Second-Class God, and only then did the God Realm let it go. But Lord Ice God, her personality was as rigid and indestructible as her ice. She would rather die than submit, and the final result could only be death and destruction, and even the shattering of her God Position."

"Following the death of Lord Ice God, she was unwilling to have her First-Class God position reclaimed by the God Realm Committee, so she transformed the highest realm of her ice attribute, the power of Absolute Zero, into four stones called Cold Extreme Ice Souls and cast them into the Lower Plane, which is the Extreme North of the Douluo Continent. From then on, the Extreme North was protected by the power of the Ice God, becoming colder and colder, and only suitable for the survival of ice-attribute Spirit Beasts. Lord Ice God protected her subjects in this way."

"This is one of the four Cold Extreme Ice Souls?" Feihuang looked at the stone in his hand in shock. It was actually a stone containing the laws of a deity and the power of Absolute Zero. No wonder even his Extreme Ice could be injured by it.

Although Feihuang's ice attribute had reached the level of Extreme Ice, Extreme Ice does not mean it can achieve Absolute Zero. The lowest temperature of Feihuang's ice is currently around -240°C, which is still some distance from the -273.15°C of Absolute Zero.

Don't look at the mere 30°C difference; in fact, the gap between them is like a natural chasm, just like the difference between Level 99 and Level 100—even though it is only one level, the strength is worlds apart.

"Yes, the Cold Extreme Ice Soul, also known as the Absolute Zero Stone, can emit ultra-low temperatures when it senses ice-attribute energy. If it is ordinary ice, it will emit the power of Extreme Ice, but your ice, Feihuang, is already Extreme Ice, which is why you were able to feel Absolute Zero just now. This is the key to achieving the Ice God. As long as you collect all four Absolute Zero Stones, it is almost certain that you can become the next Ice God. Even if you only get one, there is still a glimmer of hope. After all, the laws contained in the four stones are similar. If one has high talent, it is not impossible to deduce all the laws of the Absolute Zero of Ice by obtaining just one of them without the other three," Xuedi said excitedly. This was because she only had her soul left now; if she were still alive, even if she had to beg on her knees, she would definitely ask Feihuang for this Absolute Zero Stone, or even offer herself to him.

In any case, the Snow Maiden clan is quite special; even without taking human form, their body structure is quite similar to humans, and there is no problem at all in falling in love with a human.

Feihuang did not expect that sending Ning Rongrong out as a treasure hunter would actually lead to finding such a good thing.

The main thing is that this stone looks no different from ordinary ice crystals on the outside. People without ice-attribute soul power cannot feel the powerful ice power contained within it at all. This is why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is special, as it could sense the extraordinary nature of this treasure; otherwise, it would truly be a pearl covered in dust.

Although this Absolute Zero Stone is of little use to Feihuang—after all, he already has the inheritance of the Peerless God General, so why would he need the power of the Ice God?

But it is suitable for his mother. Ever since his mother Lan Xue broke through to Level 97, the power of the Immortal Herb in her body had been fully developed. For the next two levels, even with her talent, it would be very difficult to break through relying solely on her own cultivation without decades or even a hundred years, and becoming a god was even more remote.

With this treasure, Feihuang is not sure if Lan Xue can become a god, but at least the time to achieve Limit Douluo can be shortened by more than ten times.

"Truly a good treasure. Ning Rongrong, choose two more Elders from the Spirit Empire. In addition, you can make one request to me that is not excessive, and I will try my best to help you fulfill it," Feihuang said.

Although he knew that Ning Rongrong might not be very clear about the value of this stone, even if he said this stone was worthless, Ning Rongrong would have no way of knowing.

But Feihuang disdains doing such things. What he promised is promised. His regard for his own word, even if it does not reach the level of Dugu Bo who protects it with his life, is such that he would never easily be a villain who breaks his word.

Ning Rongrong was startled. This stone was actually so precious, even exceeding that soul bone and the Whale Glue. She had thought it was just a bonus item, but it gave her a huge surprise.

She couldn't help but praise Feihuang's character. He did not deceive her; a treasure is a treasure, and he would not try to fool her just because she didn't understand it.

It seems that if she finds any other good things in the future, she can send them all to Nan Feihuang. At the very least, he is someone who understands fair trade and keeps his promises.
