19: Ice Emperor Remnant Soul 2

"A Semi-Saint's power?!" Yao Lao exclaimed in shock.

Inside Xiao Bing, the four Spiritual Thunders wildly surged, and the System's alarms blared continuously:

"[High-level energy reaction detected]"

"[Recommendation: Evacuate immediately]"

"Cannot retreat!" Xiao Bing gritted his teeth, "Below the Yan Alliance is the entrance to the Ice Emperor Tomb!"

A look of determination flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes: "Teacher, take the others and retreat into the city. Xiao Bing and I will cover the rear!"

Yao Lao knew the situation was critical and said no more. He quickly retreated into the Yan Alliance with Hu Jia and Little Fairy Doctor.

The black giant palm drew closer and closer, its terrifying pressure causing space itself to twist. Xiao Yan took a deep breath, circulating multiple different flames within him simultaneously: "I can only fight with all I have!"

Xiao Bing suddenly pressed on his shoulder: "Flame Brother, wait." A strange blue light flashed in his eyes, "I have a method, but I need your cooperation."

"Speak!"

"The Ice Emperor's remnant Soul told me that if different flames and Spiritual Thunder can perfectly fuse, they can unleash the 'Ice and Fire Two Poles Array', which is enough to counter the power of the Nine Nether Yellow Springs."

Xiao Yan didn't hesitate: "How do we do it?"

Xiao Bing quickly explained: "I will inject the four Spiritual Thunders into your body. You will guide them with Burning Decisive and fuse them with your different flames..."

"Too dangerous!" Xiao Yan interrupted him, "Fusing two opposing energies within the body, a slight mistake could cause an explosion and death!"

The blue light in Xiao Bing's eyes grew brighter: "There's no other choice... Trust me!"

Time was pressing, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth: "Alright!"

The two stood back to back. Xiao Bing slowly guided the four Spiritual Thunders into Xiao Yan's body. The intense pain made Xiao Yan tremble all over, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, circulating Burning Decisive with all his might, attempting to reconcile these two extreme energies.

Soul Extinguisher saw this and laughed loudly: "Seeking your own destruction!" He controlled the black giant palm to accelerate its descent!

At the critical moment, Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils one green and one blue, incredibly bizarre: "Ice and Fire Two Poles, open!"

Centered on the two, green-red and blue-black energies spread out in a Tai Chi diagram, forming a huge energy vortex. The black giant palm struck the vortex, but was actually held back!

"What?!" Soul Extinguisher was incredulous, "This is impossible!"

Amidst the energy stalemate, Xiao Bing's consciousness gradually blurred. The Ice Emperor's remnant Soul seized the opportunity to attack:

"Give up resisting... Let me take control of this body... I can give you invincible power..."

Xiao Bing's Soul was pulled into a strange space. All around were endless glaciers, and on a throne in the center, a blue-haired man sat lazily, his face blurry and indistinct.

"Ice Emperor..." Xiao Bing looked at the other party warily.

"Clever little fellow." The Ice Emperor chuckled, "Don't be nervous, I just want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

The Ice Emperor stood up, and the space vibrated with him: "You help me revive, and I will grant you eternal life."

Xiao Bing sneered: "Like what the Soul Hall promised you?"

The Ice Emperor's expression froze: "You know quite a lot."

"I also know that you were personally slain by Tuoshe Ancient Emperor back then." Xiao Bing looked directly at him, "Because you wanted to use the Source Ice Heart to freeze the entire Dou Qi Continent!"

The cold light in the Ice Emperor's eyes flared: "It seems I cannot let you live!" He suddenly waved his hand, and endless ice surged towards Xiao Bing!

Outside, Xiao Yan suddenly noticed Xiao Bing's aura rapidly weakening: "Xiao Bing! Wake up!"

The System's alarm exploded in Xiao Bing's mind:

"[Host's Soul is under attack!]"

"[Activating emergency defense: Soul Burn!]"

The intense pain instantly sobered Xiao Bing. He roared, and the four Spiritual Thunders completely erupted! Xiao Yan seized the opportunity, pushing the fused energy to its limit!

"Ice and Fire Two Poles · Annihilation!"

The Tai Chi diagram suddenly expanded, and the black giant palm shattered inch by inch! Soul Extinguisher spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and the Nine Nether Yellow Springs Array completely shattered!

"Retreat! Quickly retreat!" Soul Extinguisher screamed in terror, tearing open space first and fleeing. The Soul Hall members fell into chaos, scattering and fleeing.

Xiao Yan didn't bother to pursue, and quickly supported the tottering Xiao Bing: "How are you?"

Xiao Bing's face was pale: "The Ice Emperor's remnant Soul... tried to take Possession of me..."

Yao Lao and the others arrived, and were greatly alarmed upon hearing this: "We must immediately suppress this remnant Soul!"

Little Fairy Doctor suddenly spoke: "Perhaps... my E Nan Poison Body can help."

Everyone was stunned. She explained: "The Origin of the E Nan Poison Body contains extremely strong corrosive power, which can erode the Soul."

"Too dangerous!" Xiao Bing objected, "Your injuries haven't healed yet..."

"Let me try." Little Fairy Doctor insisted, "You saved me, this time it's my turn to save you."

Yao Lao pondered for a moment: "Theoretically feasible, but requires precise control."

Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Bing, who finally nodded: "Alright."

Everyone came to a quiet room. Little Fairy Doctor transformed the Origin of her E Nan Poison Body into fine threads and slowly injected them into Xiao Bing's glabella. Xiao Bing groaned, trembling all over.

Yao Lao guided from the side: "Slower... Find that external Soul..."

After an incense stick's time, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly opened her eyes: "Found it!" She manipulated the poisonous threads to entwine it, and the Ice Emperor's remnant Soul let out a silent shriek!

"Ah—!" Xiao Bing painfully clutched his head, and the four Spiritual Thunders uncontrollably erupted, shattering the quiet room!

In the dust, Xiao Bing slowly stood up, the blue light in his eyes gradually extinguishing. He let out a long breath: "It's resolved..."

Little Fairy Doctor collapsed from exhaustion, supported by Hu Jia. Xiao Yan stepped forward to check Xiao Bing's condition: "Are you really alright?"

Xiao Bing nodded: "The Ice Emperor's remnant Soul has been temporarily Sealed. However..." His expression was solemn, "I learned from the remnant Soul's memory that the Soul Hall has already gathered five Spiritual Thunders."

"What?" Yao Lao was shocked, "Plus your four..."

"No, it's another five." Xiao Bing explained, "The Soul Hall possesses all the Spiritual Thunders except for the four within me and the Han Family's Moonlight Thunder!"

Xiao Yan took a sharp breath: "So they're only missing the last one..."

"Moonlight Thunder." Xiao Bing looked into the distance, "We must return to the Han Family immediately! The Soul Hall's next target must be—"

Before he finished speaking, a spatial rift suddenly opened before everyone, and Han Yue, covered in blood, stumbled out!

"Han Yue?!" Xiao Bing was greatly alarmed, and quickly supported her.

Han Yue's breath was weak: "The Soul Hall... ambushed the Han Family... Father... Father told me to find you all..." She painstakingly took out a blood-stained jade pendant, "He said... this is... the key to the Ice Emperor Tomb..."

The moment the jade pendant appeared, the entire Yan Alliance headquarters suddenly vibrated violently! Huge cracks appeared in the ground, and an ancient Ice Crystal Palace slowly rose!

Yao Lao's face turned pale: "Not good... Nine Thunder Resonance... The Ice Emperor Tomb has opened early!"
