Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, three days had gone by.
With the assistance of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King's remnant souls, Xiao Se spent less than half a day fusing their soul bones.
Harnessing the pure power inside those bones, his cultivation surged—breaking through into the Dou Ling realm, and the dou crystals in his body transformed into a sea-urchin-shaped cluster.
Afterward, he spent another three days merging and refining the two dragon kings' origins.
During this time, Xiao Se worried that the little kitten might panic again if left in the system warehouse, so he released the Seagod Barrier and allowed her, along with Bibi Dong and Long Kui, to stay inside safely.
When the kitten was released, she had been completely stunned—
and upon learning that the breathtaking woman before her was the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, her shock had doubled instantly.
So the three girls—Bibi Dong, Long Kui, and the kitten—spent nearly three days bonding happily.
Meanwhile, Xiao Se sank into the trance of devouring and fusing a new strange fire.
He sat cross-legged between the dragon kings' massive skeletal remains, eyes closed.
Half his body was shrouded in fiery red light, the other half wrapped in milky white radiance.
Where the two colors met, they slowly melded.
Red and white faded together, replaced by a blooming pink glow.
When the fusion completed, that pink radiance flared upward like a rising blossom of flame.
Moments later, Xiao Se's eyelashes trembled.
The pink flame coating his body receded, drawn back into his core.
At the same time—
his aura exploded once again.
After fusing the dragon soul bones, his cultivation surged a second time, reaching five-star Dou Ling.
"He's waking up?"
Seeing his aura stabilize, the three women finally exhaled in relief, smiling softly.
Xiao Se lifted his head.
Seeing their smiling faces, he nodded lightly and leapt into the Seagod Barrier.
"Brother, how do you feel? Did you get hurt?"
Long Kui rushed forward immediately, circling him and checking him carefully like an anxious little wife.
Xiao Se rubbed her head with a gentle smile.
"I'm fine. With the ice and fire dragon kings assisting me, the fusion went smoother than expected. Two god-level soul bones, plus the new flame—I broke through to five-star Dou Ling.
Even my cultivation method evolved to a low-tier earth-rank technique.
And it seems my soul realm… has stepped into the level of a six-rank alchemist."
As he spoke, he raised his right hand.
A soft whoosh—
and a pink flame bloomed in his palm.
Just like the Green Lotus Core Flame, it possessed clear spiritual intelligence.
Tiny white and red dragons swam within the flickering firelight, letting out faint dragon cries.
The moment the pink flame appeared, the temperature inside the Seagod Barrier skyrocketed—
yet at the same instant, icy frost spread along the walls as frigid air spilled outward.
"A flame that releases cold? Is this like a bootleg version of the Bone-Chilling Flame?"
Xiao Se stared at his new fire, surprised.
Bibi Dong, the kitten, and Long Kui all leaned in curiously, eyes shining.
"Xiao Se, it seems you've gained quite the opportunity. Give it a name," Bibi Dong teased.
Xiao Se thought briefly, then nodded.
"This flame was created from the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' origins…
Let's call it the Icefire Dragon Flame."
He withdrew the flame, excitement growing in his chest.
Because along with the flame—
he had gained something else.
A domain.
The Icefire Domain.
It was the fusion of the Fire Dragon King's fire domain and the Ice Dragon King's frost domain.
Although weak for now, Xiao Se knew that as his cultivation rose, its potential would become terrifying.
He had profited enormously this time.
While he celebrated internally, the three beauties' gazes subtly shifted—
each staring at him with unreadable expressions.
Being stared at by three different women, Xiao Se felt a sudden chill on his scalp.
"…Why are all of you looking at me like that?" he asked weakly.
The kitten lifted a dangerous smile.
"Don't you feel like there's something you should explain?"
"…Explain what?" Xiao Se looked at Long Kui helplessly.
For the first time ever, Long Kui rolled her eyes at him.
"Brother, this time I can't help you. You caused this mess with your own wandering heart."
Xiao Se froze.
Then realization hit him like a hammer.
He slowly turned toward the kitten and Bibi Dong, both wearing equally dangerous expressions.
"Ahem. You two—listen to my expla—no, listen to my clarification. Back then, I couldn't remember Dong'er, so finding Zhuqing was understandable!"
"Oh? Reasonable?" Bibi Dong's tone sharpened instantly.
"Then what about Xiao Yixian? And Yafei? And your childhood sweetheart—your eighth-generation-removed cousin, Xiao Yu?"
She had finally understood why Xiao Se avoided answering when she once asked him whether he'd find other girls.
Turned out—
he already had multiple love interests.
"Long Kui…" Xiao Se groaned, holding his head.
Great.
The harem wasn't even built yet, and it was already burning down.
Long Kui's face scrunched with guilt.
"Brother… Dong'er sister kept asking, and Zhuqing also wanted to know, and I… couldn't refuse, so…"
Xiao Se felt his soul leave his body.
Truly—
one must reap what one sows.
Just as he tried to speak, the kitten sighed and waved her hand.
"Tomorrow, we return to the Dou Qi Continent. Dong'er can't come—she still has responsibilities here. You two may not meet for a long time.
So today, just stay with her.
We'll settle accounts later."
Xiao Se straightened and nodded seriously.
His gaze softened as it turned to Bibi Dong.
The Spirit Hall couldn't function long without her.
If she left for too long, Hu Liena wouldn't be able to stabilize the situation. The Titled Douluo faction beneath the Papal Hall would certainly stir trouble.
Letting Bibi Dong leave was far too dangerous.
"Come with me," Bibi Dong said softly, stepping close.
Her delicate hand slid beneath Xiao Se's arm as she leaned into his chest.
"There's someone I want you to meet."
"Anything you want," Xiao Se replied gently.
He controlled the Seagod Barrier, rising swiftly toward the surface.
