Chapter 22 The Far North Will Prosper!
Having just fused with the dragon shadow and the Qilin bloodline, achieving his second martial soul, Yunze hadn't even noticed it yet.
Now, thanks to the reminders from Xue Di, Di Tian, and others, Yunze noticed two halos appearing beneath his feet.
Yunze naturally recognized these halos, as they were soul rings only human soul masters of the Douluo Continent could possess!
Moreover, unlike the traditional soul rings of the continent, the two soul rings beneath Yunze's feet were identical silver-white, perfectly matching the color of the Heavenly Snow Dragon Qilin's body.
"Uncle Di Tian, what is this?"
"It should be your bloodline soul rings. Your second martial soul isn't a purely human martial soul; it retains your Qilin bloodline. Perhaps that's why you were able to autonomously condense soul rings the moment your martial soul took shape." Di Tian looked at Yunze as if he were a monster. "Not just soul rings, feel your right leg too."
Right leg?
Following Di Tian's instructions, Yun Ze used his mind to examine his right leg and discovered that the bone in his right leg was somewhat different from the rest of his bones. Although the overall structure remained the same, the difference was quite noticeable.
"A soul bone, to be precise, is also formed through your bloodline, gradually transforming your original bones into a soul bone," Di Tian explained. "Based on your current cultivation level, I estimate that this soul bone will be fully formed when you reach the fourth ring. And according to my estimation, after it's formed, it will also continuously improve itself along with your cultivation level."
Ah, this.
Yun Ze was truly overjoyed.
Soul bones are extremely rare, especially those of higher age, let alone those that perfectly match one's own. Apart from the scions of powerful forces and families, ordinary soul masters can only possess them in their dreams.
Even the core disciples of powerful forces cannot possibly have all their soul bones perfectly matching their own.
But Yun Ze could!
Because his soul bone was entirely formed from his own bloodline, perfectly matching his own.
Moreover, the soul bone can evolve as one's cultivation level increases. Such a treasure is definitely no less valuable than the two divine armor plates he obtained when he awakened his first martial soul!
"Making this little guy the most correct choice for the master's plan was indeed the best decision." Di Tian thought to himself as he looked at Yun Ze's joyful face, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.
He had quite a bit of affection for this little guy. Not to mention anything else, he was genuinely good to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
And the Three-Eyed Golden Lion treated him the same way, regarding him as the most important person.
"Little guy!"
Before Yun Ze could properly study the power brought by his two newly acquired martial souls, he heard a sweet shout from not far away. Before he could react, he was suddenly tackled to the ground.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion held Yun Ze tightly, its golden eyes filled with heartache. "It must have hurt a lot just now, right?"
"It's okay. Actually, I didn't seem to be very conscious just now, and I didn't feel any pain." Yun Ze said with a smile, his heart warming involuntarily.
Perhaps humans possess emotions that transcend life itself, but spirit beasts are not a group of cold-blooded creatures either!
However, Yunze, a future human and spirit beast,
clearly understood that his arrival would undoubtedly have a profound impact on this continent, and many things from the original story might change to varying degrees.
He didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing for the far north; he only knew that this was his home, he was the future king of the far north, and his duty was to protect this land!
Holding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the no-longer-small Yunze easily sat up. Although his height of over 1.4 meters was still not particularly tall, his snow-white skin concealed a power invisible to the naked eye.
This was the most direct benefit of his spirit awakening; Yunze was now a genuine level 20 Great Spirit Master, but his physical attributes far surpassed those of ordinary Great Spirit Masters.
Moreover, his spiritual power had been greatly enhanced due to his intertwined fate with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and had become even more refined after his spirit awakening.
The area of the Sea of Spirit has also increased from the original small pond to about the size of three small ponds, which is absolutely a multiple increase! Seeing the human and beast huddled together in the snow, Snow Empress, Emperor Tian, Little White, and the others all smiled slightly.
The soul beasts, led by their respective clan leaders, cheered wildly.
The far north now had a rightful new king! The far north was destined
for prosperity!
"Roar—"
"Awoo—"
"Zin—"
Countless roars erupted from the mouths of thousands of soul beasts, echoing through the heavens and earth, as if trying to dispel the snow haze in the far north sky!
The clouds parted, revealing the sun, piercing the heavens!
Looking at Yun Ze and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion before her, Ice Empress pouted slightly in dissatisfaction. If the atmosphere hadn't been so wonderful, she would have wanted to run over and hug Yun Ze too.
"Hmm, but Xiao Ze looks really good now. Although he's still quite small, his figure is great~ and
his skin is so nice too~
" Yun Ze, "???"
Holding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Yun Ze suddenly realized that because of the fusion and birth of his second martial soul, the fox fur he was wearing had disappeared, and because of his constitution, he couldn't feel the cold at all.
Damn it!
This darn ice-immune constitution!
He hurriedly pulled out a full-body bearskin coat from the pendant around his neck and put it on. Yun Ze's complexion improved a lot.
He stood up from the snow and walked to the group of far-northern soul beasts.
His eyes shone brightly.
"I don't know how many soul beasts die each year in our far north because of humans, becoming their soul rings. I also don't know how many soul beasts have died in our far north over the countless years." "
Those who have died are gone forever. The history that we resented, feared, and hated is ultimately just the past. Perhaps you think that my appearance and physical characteristics are exactly the same as humans, and that my heart is with humans. I can tell you that although I have never seen the humans of this world, in some ways, I am also a compatriot of humans."
Yun Ze's voice was not quiet. Hearing this, many soul beasts showed a look of doubt and confusion in their eyes.
Ignoring the gazes fixed upon him, Yunze continued, "If possible, I sincerely hope that humans and soul beasts can coexist peacefully."
"But, I am a sacred beast of the Far North!"
"Peace is certainly the best, but we absolutely cannot allow ourselves to be slaughtered for the sake of peace!"
"From today onwards, I cannot interfere with the internal conflicts among the soul beasts of the Far North for their own survival; this is the law of survival for soul beasts—survival of the fittest, it's normal." "
However, if anyone from the outside world dares to lay a finger on any soul beast of my Far North, I, Yunze, will personally take action, even to the ends of the earth, I will sever their head!"
The soul beasts were stunned for a moment, then erupted in roars no less intense than before.
The Snow Empress watched Yunze's not-so-tall figure, a smile playing on her lips.
This was the most charming side of Yunze!
