Chapter 53 Space-Based Weapons! Talent: Simultaneous Use of Twin Martial Souls!
"Grandpa, look, isn't that the Tianshan Mountains ahead?"
After bidding farewell to Shui Bing'er and her grandfather, Dugu Lin and Dugu Bo traveled for a day and finally arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, which stretch across most of the Frozen Forest.
The Tianshan Mountains are at an altitude of over 5,000 meters!
This place is sparsely populated and extremely cold, almost as cold as the depths of the far north.
After carefully examining the mountain range ahead, Dugu Bo sighed, "Back then, I came here with your great-grandfather. After so many years, I've returned once again."
It turned out that Dugu Bo's sixth soul ring also came from a Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King that was less than 20,000 years old.
"This is it, we've finally arrived."
Immediately afterward, Dugu Lin seemed to remember something and said, "That's right! I remember that the Immortal Herb Catalogue records a kind of immortal herb called Tianshan Snow Lotus. Grandpa, do you think the 'Tianshan' in Tianshan Snow Lotus refers to this Tianshan Mountain?"
"Huh?" Dugu Bo clicked his tongue, his brows furrowing into a deep frown, and exclaimed, "You know what, it's very possible!"
"It's a pity I never heard of the whereabouts of the Tianshan Snow Lotus in my previous life... However, I think my grandson and I can try our luck!"
"Alright, let's take a look around. What if we, grandfather and grandson, get lucky?"
So, for the next whole month, the two of them searched cliffs and precipices in the Tianshan Mountains, looking for both immortal herbs and the traces of the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King.
"Grandpa, run! It's a 70,000-year-old snow eagle!"
That day, Dugu Lin had just flown up a cliff with the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor when he saw a nest of snow eagles, and then... then the snow eagles' parents returned to their nest.
"唳!"
With a cry of an eagle, the snow eagle put down its food and flew straight towards Dugu Lin, its sharp beak gleaming coldly.
Dugu Lin swooped down quickly to evade the snow eagle's pursuit.
"You beast! Prepare to die!"
Dugu Bo rushed over from not far away and immediately used his eighth soul skill, Time Freeze.
Buzz~
However, the snow eagle simply flapped its wings to dodge Dugu Bo's attack, then suddenly turned around and flew into the sky.
Snow eagles, the overlords of the Frozen Forest!
Although the Snow Eagle is slightly inferior to a soul beast like the Titan Giant Ape, and cannot rival a 100,000-year-old one while still being 10,000-year-old, a 70,000-year-old Snow Eagle is still enough to contend with an ordinary Title Douluo!
"唳~"
Suddenly, another snow eagle flew in from a distance.
Two snow eagles circled overhead, frantically flapping their wings and swirling up a flurry of snowflakes. On this bright, sunny day, the falling snow blocked out the sun.
Upon seeing the two high-age snow eagles, Dugu Bo's lips twitched, and he said, "Lin'er, let's go. Grandpa really can't take them down without using some tricks! But killing them would be such a waste of their soul rings! It would be better to keep them as soul rings for Xiao Bing'er in the future."
"Okay, let's retreat!"
It took the grandfather and grandson five whole days to shake off the snow eagle couple's pursuit.
"Grandpa, let's just go find the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King! The Snow Shadow Demon Wolf we encountered before caused us a great loss! The Frozen Forest is quite dangerous."
"Uh... okay."
In terms of area alone, the Frozen Forest is not much smaller than the Star Dou Forest, but the number of soul beasts in the Frozen Forest is far less than that in the Star Dou Forest.
However, even if Dugu Bo and Dugu Lin wandered around recklessly, they were still able to encounter many high-level soul beasts.
Soon, the two had just gotten rid of the snow eagle and stepped onto a continuous mountain peak when they saw a Snow Shadow Demon Wolf appear in the distance.
"Awoo~"
The Snow Shadow Demon Wolf howled to the sky, gathering its army!
Dugu Bo frowned and said, "Damn it! Lin'er, we've been targeted by the Snow Shadow Wolves again! It's been over half a month, and they still haven't given up!"
"Then... run?"
"Run!"
Not only snow eagles and snow shadow wolves, but also frost snowflake leopards, snow dragon scale beasts, and so on, all of them wanted to use the two of them as food.
Another half month passed.
The grandfather and grandson found the trail of the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King on a mountain peak. Following the trail, they finally found a Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King that was 35,000 years old!
Dugu Bo frowned and said, "Lin'er, 35,000 years is a bit beyond your limit! Let's search some more. If all else fails, there are traces of Ice Crystal Jade Pythons in the distant mountains."
Dugu Lin pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "The maximum that Little Lin and I can withstand together is 30,000 years! But don't I possess a 100,000-year soul bone? And it's a healing soul bone! It can greatly increase my endurance limit! Grandpa, I want to try! If I can kill it alone, it means that I can also withstand its soul ring!"
Dugu Bo hesitated for a moment and advised, "It's not worth taking the risk for a little bit of time."
Dugu Lin shook his head firmly and said, "Cultivation is inherently defying the heavens! If one cannot break through one's own limits time and time again, what right will one have to become a god in the future? What I want to be is the one who defies the heavens and becomes an immortal!"
"To defy fate and become an immortal?"
Seeing his grandson's courage and determination, Dugu Bo's heart stirred slightly, and he sighed, "Are you really sure? Once you start... there's no turning back! A 35,000-year-old soul ring—even if Grandpa intervenes midway, it will be difficult to interrupt the absorption of the soul ring! Even if Grandpa manages to interrupt it by chance, you will be seriously injured!"
I've made up my mind!
Dugu Lin narrowed his eyes, summoned the Jade Phosphor Serpent, and whispered, "Little Lin, this is the first time we've faced a life-or-death crisis head-on!"
"Hiss~~"
"Also! In the midst of battle, I might not be able to protect you, so please take care of yourself!"
"Hiss~~"
The Jade Phosphor Serpent flicked its tongue and nodded in a human-like manner.
"Grandpa, cover for us!"
"Be careful."
...
The Tianshan Mountains are vast and boundless, with biting winds and snow-covered peaks.
A snow-white Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent, about fifteen meters long, did not coil up, but lay directly across the hillside facing the sun, basking in the sunlight.
Suddenly!
The Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King suddenly opened its eyes, its vertical pupils slightly contracting.
Immediately afterwards, the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King raised its head and looked around, seemingly sensing danger!
Just as it was wondering where the danger was coming from, a sound of wind suddenly came from above, the sound of a giant object falling and rubbing against the air.
Boom!
The Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King's soul power surged instantly to form a defense, but before it could dodge, a boulder fell from the sky and struck it on the head.
It turned out that Dugu Lin put a huge rock into his storage soul tool, then flew to a height of 200 meters in the air, found a vertical spot, and took out the rock, treating it as a space-based weapon!
The boulder crashed down from a height of 200 meters at a speed of more than 60 meters per second, cracking the ground and causing a violent earthquake. It also nearly stunned the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King.
"First Soul Skill: Jade Phosphor Halo!"
"Third Soul Skill: Golden Serpent King!"
Dugu Lin swooped down from mid-air, and the Jade Phosphor Serpent was summoned again, simultaneously using two amplification-type soul skills.
The first soul skill increases all attributes by 40%.
The third soul ring came from a golden giant python that was 9,500 years old! The effect of the soul skill was to make the Jade Phosphor Serpent's original five-meter-long body suddenly grow to ten meters long, and the edges of each green scale on the Jade Phosphor Serpent's body turned dark gold!
Green stripes on a gold base!
At the same time, the Jade Phosphor Serpent's strength, defense, and attack power all increased by 300%!
"Hiss!"
The Jade Phosphor Serpent opened its blood-red maw and lunged at the Heavenly Mountain Ice Serpent King amidst the jumbled rocks.
"First Soul Skill: Blue Silver King - Guardian!"
Dugu Lin activated the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone, causing his body to float in mid-air. A book appeared in his hand, and a Blue Silver King plant grew from the book!
