73: Chapter 73 A 100,000-Year Soul Ring!

Immediately after, dozens, then hundreds of lightning bolts fell simultaneously, like a forest of lightning, completely submerging Qin Feng and the Ice Empress.

In the distance, the Snow Empress tightly gripped the corner of her clothes, her heart leaping into her throat.

Standing in the center of the sea of thunder, the Ice Empress was even more dumbfounded.

She looked at the back of the figure above her, which wasn't particularly tall.

The tribulation lightning, which was enough to tear her flesh apart, was now like a docile pet, cheering and jumping around the man before being completely absorbed into his body.

As the lightning continued to pour in, Qin Feng's aura also climbed steadily.

Rank fifty-six, Rank fifty-seven...

This method of using Undergoing Tribulation by devouring Heavenly Tribulation to Cultivate was simply unheard of!

Half an hour later.

The tribulation clouds in the sky seemed to have exhausted their strength and dispersed unwillingly.

Sunlight once again fell upon the ice plains.

Qin Feng let out a long breath of turbid air, and the joints all over his body made a series of crackling sounds.

Refreshing.

So refreshing.

This wasn't Undergoing Tribulation; it was clearly a gift pack of experience.

Below, the Ice Empress was also undergoing a startling transformation.

Having passed this hurdle, she officially entered the Ranks of a four hundred thousand year Vicious Beast.

Her originally somewhat ethereal aura became incredibly solid, the color of her emerald-green dress grew even more vibrant, and her twelve- or thirteen-year-old appearance actually grew a bit, looking like a young girl of fifteen or sixteen.

Her skin was as white as jade, and her once slightly immature features had completely matured, making her breathtakingly beautiful.

"I... I'm not dead?"

The Ice Empress touched her face and then looked at the sky, her face full of disbelief.

The nightmare that had haunted her for tens of thousands of years had ended so effortlessly?

The Snow Empress also used Teleportation to arrive nearby.

Looking at the Ice Empress, whose aura had surged and who was completely unharmed, and then at Qin Feng, the doubt in her eyes completely vanished, replaced by deep awe and gratitude.

"Thank you for your help, Your Excellency."

The Snow Empress bowed slightly; this gesture was one of heartfelt submission.

Qin Feng waved his hand. "Don't be in such a hurry to thank me; there's still another one."

He looked at the Snow Empress. "Your seven hundred thousand year limit's power should be much greater than this, right? I hope it will give me a full meal."

The Snow Empress was taken aback, then she broke into a smile.

This smile was like the melting of ice and snow, the revival of all things.

"In that case, I shall trouble Your Excellency."

...

Another hour passed.

When the last golden bolt of lightning was swallowed by Qin Feng in one gulp, the entire Extreme North Core Circle returned to complete tranquility.

The Snow Empress had also completed her transformation.

She had achieved a cultivation of seven hundred thousand years.

Originally a Snow Girl formed from Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, she now possessed an even greater sense of otherworldly divinity; her beauty was such that even the world paled in comparison.

"Whew..."

Qin Feng landed and rubbed his slightly aching brow.

The seven hundred thousand year Heavenly Tribulation was indeed powerful; it had almost given him indigestion from being so full.

However, the rewards were also immense.

His Thunder God Body was more complete, and his Soul Power had directly broken through the Rank sixty Bottleneck; he was only one spirit ring away from advancing to a Spirit Emperor.

"Thank you, Young Master, for the gift of a new life."

The Snow Empress and Ice Empress bowed together.

This time, even the way they addressed him had changed.

If it was a transaction before, then now, Qin Feng was their savior.

"Alright, there's no need for pleasantries."

Qin Feng brushed the dust off his clothes and looked at the two of them with burning eyes. "Since the Undergoing Tribulation is over, it's time to talk about the reward."

The Ice Empress now found Qin Feng more and more pleasing to the eye. She puffed out her developing chest and said boldly, "Speak! You can have anything! As long as this Empress has it!"

Qin Feng smiled and held up one finger.

"First, I want a Hundred Thousand Year spirit ring."

"And it must be of the plant type, preferably with the ice attribute."

The two Heavenly Kings looked at each other.

A Hundred Thousand Year spirit ring meant hunting a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast.

As Dominators of the Extreme North, helping a human hunt their own kind was somewhat taboo.

However, after a brief thought, the Snow Empress nodded and said, "Since the Young Master needs it, then let us go. It so happens that in the southeast corner of the Core Circle, there is a one hundred and ninety thousand year Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Lotus."

"Its time has come, but it is unwilling to transform and dares not trigger a Heavenly Tribulation; its life force is now nearly exhausted."

"If the Young Master does not take it, it will wither on its own within three days."

Qin Feng's eyes lit up.

One hundred and ninety thousand years!

This was much stronger than an ordinary Hundred Thousand Year spirit ring.

Moreover, plant-type Spirit Beasts were gentle, making the absorption risk lower, and it was perfect for tempering the violent power of thunder within his body.

"Lead the way."

...

Half an hour later.

Deep within the Extreme North Ice Abyss.

A crystal-clear giant snow lotus, emitting a faint fragrance, bloomed quietly on the ice wall.

Without hesitation, Qin Feng sat down cross-legged and began to draw in the spirit ring.

That blood-red spirit ring, carrying a nearly physical pressure, slowly settled over Qin Feng.

With the two Dominators acting as Protectors, and since Qin Feng had just devoured the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, his physique was incredibly strong, and the absorption process was exceptionally smooth.

When Qin Feng opened his eyes again, six spirit rings pulsed beneath his feet.

The sixth spirit ring, one hundred and ninety thousand years!

Majestic Soul Power surged within him, and his Rank directly soared to sixty-six.

A single step to heaven.

Looking at that bright red spirit ring, the Snow Empress and Ice Empress were filled with nothing but shock.

A Rank sixty-six Spirit Emperor who possessed a Hundred Thousand Year spirit ring.

For this kid's future, even becoming a god might not be the end.

"What else does the Young Master want?"

The Snow Empress looked at Qin Feng and asked softly.

She had previously promised that any request would be granted, and now he had only taken one spirit ring, which was clearly not enough to repay the debt of saving two lives.

Qin Feng stood up and stretched his limbs.

His gaze circled around the two stunning Heavenly Kings, finally lingering on the Snow Empress's long, slender legs, and he gave a meaningful smile.

"As for the rest... we'll talk about it later."

The Snow Empress was slightly dazed, seemingly not understanding the deeper meaning, and simply nodded seriously. "Very well. If you have any needs in the future, Young Master may come to the Extreme North Land at any time; we will certainly welcome you with open arms."

Only the more quick-witted Ice Empress, seeing Qin Feng's somewhat mischievous smile, felt her face inexplicably redden and spat in disdain.

"Since the business is finished, I should be going."

Qin Feng did not linger.

He had been out for quite a while this time; if he didn't head back soon, those at home would probably start to worry.

He formed hand seals, and thunderous light surged around him.

This was a spatial secret technique accompanying the Thunder God Body—Thunder Flash.

As long as it was a place where he had previously left a thunder mark, he could arrive instantly, no matter how far.

"Ladies, until we meet again."

Before his voice had even faded.

A clap of thunder exploded.

Qin Feng's figure vanished instantly, leaving only a faint smell of burning in the air and the still-falling snowflakes.

The Snow Empress looked at the empty ice plain, a hint of melancholy flashing in her eyes.

"Sister, that bastard sure runs fast."

The Ice Empress curled her lip, but there wasn't much anger in her tone. "But... he really is quite impressive."

The Snow Empress turned and looked toward the south.

"Yes."

"Perhaps before long, the weather on this continent will change."
