Chapter 188: What Did You Do to Bibi Dong?
After sending her lover to the entrance of the Spirit Hall, the little angel turned around, taking one last glance at Ning Bei before heading back to the Angel God Temple.
Ning Bei, seeing this, returned to the hotel arranged by the Prince's subordinates, waiting for the main group to arrive.
When they did arrive, Ning Bei was planning to take Dugu Yan to obtain her seventh soul ring.
Thinking about Yan's seventh soul ring, Ning Bei's heart stirred. His divine soul ring seemed like it could be given to her.
Unlike Qian Renxue, who had the Angel God's trial, Dugu Yan, if she didn't have special circumstances, would find it hard to have any connection with the gods in this lifetime.
And soul rings are also difficult to elevate. Giving her one of his divine soul rings could make up for some of this deficiency.
Since there were still five trials left, Ning Bei wasn't worried about running out of soul rings for himself, as the divine soul rings were usually given as rewards after completing the trials.
Thinking that the group would take some time to arrive in Soul Land, Ning Bei went directly to the Ice God Temple.
He planned to absorb the divine soul ring obtained from the third trial, which was the sixth soul ring of the Ice Sky Snow Girl.
Sitting cross-legged in the main hall, Ning Bei took out some pills and was about to swallow them.
"Are you planning to absorb your sixth soul ring?"
The voice of Tian Meng echoed in his mind, and before Ning Bei could respond, a loud "bang" sounded, and Tian Meng was kicked to the corner of the sea of consciousness.
The Snow Emperor's cold face appeared.
"I told you to show some respect to Lord Ice God."
Ning Bei chuckled, glancing at Tian Meng, who was lying motionless in the distance, and responded:
"That's right. Some rewards increase the years of already absorbed soul rings. It's better to fill up the rings early, so I don't lose out too much!"
The Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor nodded in understanding after hearing Ning Bei's explanation.
"Then, Lord Ice God, is there any progress with the fifth trial?"
Ning Bei shook his head. He hadn't considered this yet.
"Not yet, it will probably trigger at a specific time. We don't need to rush."
"Yes, Lord Ice God!"
Ning Bei helplessly looked at the Snow Emperor. Ever since she realized he was starting, she had been very respectful to him.
How should he put it? The respect felt a little too unfamiliar.
In Ning Bei's mind, those who helped him on his path to becoming a god were his companions, and he didn't want to be too distant from them.
But after a few mentions, the Snow Emperor acknowledged but didn't change much, so Ning Bei stopped pushing.
Over the years, it was actually the Ice Emperor, the little loli, who had become much closer to him. When they spoke, it was more like the way friends communicate, which made Ning Bei feel more at ease.
After some exchanges, Ning Bei didn't say much more, directly taking the pills and crushing the divine soul ring.
The Ice Sky Snow Girl's martial soul appeared behind him. Three orange, two red, and five soul rings appeared one after another. The sixth soul ring, representing the Ice Sky Snow Girl's sixth ring, was a light yellow soul ring, signaling the absorption process had begun.
Time passed slowly, and just like last time, the light yellow soul ring gradually deepened in color, slowly transforming into purple, then black, and finally red.
Days later, the sixth gold thread of the blood-red soul ring formed, and the seventh gold thread began to appear, indicating that 600,000 years was not Ning Bei's limit yet.
Tian Meng, the Snow Emperor, and the Ice Emperor clenched their fists at the sight, each sweating nervously. Every time Ning Bei absorbed a divine soul ring, they felt like they were holding their breath, as if their lives depended on it.
It was like when stock market investors bet everything they had on a stock—if the stock crashed, they could die on the spot. Even a slight fluctuation could pull their hearts into their throats.
When the seventh gold thread slowly formed, Ning Bei didn't stop his actions. The soul ring's years began moving towards 800,000 years.
The three rulers of the sea of consciousness were now extremely tense.
"I've already warned this kid... ugh!"
Tian Meng's complaint was interrupted by a cold stare from the Snow Emperor, who quickly changed his tone.
"I've already told Lord Ice God not to absorb too much, but he just doesn't listen."
"I believe Lord Ice God can succeed," the Ice Emperor added.
As time passed, a painful expression slowly appeared on Ning Bei's handsome face, signaling the soul ring's absorption was nearing its end.
After a long sigh, Ning Bei opened his eyes.
"Not up to 800,000 years? Well, it's still good, Lord Ice God."
The Snow Emperor's cold voice rang in his mind. Ning Bei nodded slightly.
"Yeah, my soul power level has reached level 98. I believe after a few more trials, I'll reach the level of a limit Douluo."
"Lord Ice God will definitely succeed!"
After finishing the soul ring absorption, Ning Bei returned to the hotel.
He went to his father's room after asking the Prince's attendants and found that Ning Fengzhi and the others had already arrived.
"Bei'er!"
Ning Fengzhi opened the door and smiled upon seeing his son. Ning Bei had told him earlier that he was going for the fourth trial.
"Father, my fourth trial is completed."
Sword and Bone were also in Ning Fengzhi's room, and upon hearing Ning Bei's words, they were both thrilled.
"That's great! Any progress with the fifth trial?"
Ning Bei shook his head slightly.
"Not yet, it might take some time to trigger."
Ning Fengzhi gave his son a strange look and asked in confusion,
"Did you complete the divine trial with the Title Douluo of the Spirit Hall? They didn't do anything extreme, did they?"
Sword and Bone were also slightly surprised when they heard Ning Fengzhi's words. Chen Xin immediately spoke up.
"Yeah, Bei'er, Spirit Hall isn't easy to deal with. Did they cause you any trouble?"
Seeing the worried expressions on the three of them, Ning Bei thought for a moment and decided it was time to change their view of Spirit Hall.
Releasing his soul power, he enveloped the entire room, blocking all potential surveillance.
The three of them understood that Ning Bei had something confidential to discuss, so they waited for him to speak.
"Father, grandfathers, there's no need to worry too much about Spirit Hall's actions."
"Why?"
Ning Fengzhi quickly asked, not wanting his son to fall into Spirit Hall's trap due to carelessness.
Ning Bei smiled, then playfully looked at Ning Fengzhi.
"Father, maybe in the future, the Pope of Spirit Hall will have the last name Ning. Do you still think we need to be on guard against them?"
"Huh?"
Ning Fengzhi was stunned, hardly believing what he was hearing. What did he just hear?
Even Sword and Bone were shocked, their eyes nearly popping out of their heads.
After a long pause, Gu Rong finally stammered, pointing at Ning Bei and stepping back dozens of steps!
"Bei'er, you... you... you... you got Bibi Dong pregnant?"
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin, still confused about why the old man was so shocked, were now also terrified. They stepped back a few paces and looked at Ning Bei with horror.
This explanation made sense of what Ning Bei had just said. Could it be true that the Pope of Spirit Hall might have the last name Ning?
