Chapter 122 Nine Dragon Cauldron, Cold Phoenix Flute
Three days passed in a flash.
Three days, do you know how Lin Yun spent these three days!
A large piece of Ultimate Ice that had frozen the Ice Silkworms, hundreds or thousands of them, was almost entirely eaten by the Ice Emperor in three days, one crunchy bite at a time.
Lin Yun finally understood why, even though he was asking for soul beasts from the Extreme North for Snow Empress, she was not concerned at all. Soul beasts like the Ice Silkworm were truly just food in the Extreme North!
He originally thought these few hundred Ice Silkworms, grilling a few dozen skewers from time to time, would be enough for the Ice Emperor to eat for several months. But he never expected that at the current rate, they would probably be gone by tomorrow.
They were just a few days' rations for the Ice Emperor, what was there to be concerned about?
Could some Ice Silkworms that existed as food be more important than Lin Yun, the shared master of soul beasts, combined with the Ice Emperor, the Heavenly King of the Extreme North?
That being said, the taste of deep-fried Ice Silkworms was truly excellent. The Ice Silkworms living in the Extreme North, unlike silkworms from other places, were not omnivorous. They basically ate ice, so their meat was fresh and tender, without any impurities or strange smells.
As a food source, this race had indeed raised itself quite well.
He could let Xiao Xiao have a taste of the remaining ones.
For some reason, this girl, although she said she would wait for Lin Yun at Shrek, did not return until the very last day of registration. As a result, she only got to eat the very last little bit of the Ice Silkworms.
However, upon seeing the three soul rings shining on her, Lin Yun understood why she had returned so late.
This little girl was afraid that the gap between herself and Lin Yun would grow wider and wider. She probably trained desperately during the vacation and actually broke through to Soul Rank during the holiday.
Of course, this was also partly because Lin Yun had fed her many good things.
"Boohoo... delicious!" Xiao Xiao held a skewer of roasted Ice Silkworms in each hand, her little cheeks puffed out as she ate, making her already baby-fat face even rounder and making her look extremely cute.
'Hmph, you little girl, who told you to come back so late? Most of these Ice Silkworms have already entered this Emperor's stomach!' The Ice Emperor thought, not jealous in the slightest, but rather a bit smugly.
As expected, this Emperor is the most important in the Lord's heart!
Since tomorrow was the registration and promotion assessment, Lin Yun also gave the Qiluo Tulip he brought out from the Eye of Ice and Fire to Xiao Xiao, allowing her to raise her strength by another level.
An Immortal Herb, this was an Immortal Herb!
After Tang Three ascended, soul masters across the entire Douluo Continent sought Immortal Herbs eagerly. There were even rumors that a soul master who consumed an Immortal Herb would have the bearing of a god.
Although Xiao Xiao had never seen the Qiluo Tulip, its name was famous and resounding. It was the divine object that had helped the Nine-colored Goddess Ning Rongrong evolve her Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Pagoda ten thousand years ago.
This Immortal Herb was clearly more suitable for Ning Tian, yet Lin Yun gave it to her.
Setting aside the preciousness of the Immortal Herb itself, Lin Yun's sentiment made the little loli Xiao Xiao fall for him completely. With her love-struck brain kicking in, she wished she could throw herself into his arms right here and let him devour her entirely.
Taking an Immortal Herb at the age of thirteen was very appropriate. Under Xiao Xiao's burning gaze, as if she wanted to pledge her body to him, Lin Yun watched her consume the herb and protected her by the shore of Sea God Lake.
Red and white lights continuously appeared on Xiao Xiao's body. She held a small object in each of her hands. In her left was the Nine Phoenixes' Rites Flute, and in her right was the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.
The medicinal effect of the Immortal Herb not only acted on Xiao Xiao's body but also on her two Martial Souls.
She had consumed a hundred-thousand-year Qiluo Tulip, and she took both the main body and the essence of the Immortal Herb together. The power of the sun and moon directly added a touch of nobility and sanctity to Xiao Xiao's tender and cute little face. After the red and white energies traveled through her body, they were injected from her left and right hands into her two Martial Souls respectively.
Not to mention the meridians within her body.
Xiao Xiao, who possessed Twin Martial Souls, had top-tier talent to begin with, with innate full soul power. The Immortal Herb made the meridians in her body more flexible and unobstructed. In the foreseeable future, Xiao Xiao's cultivation speed would definitely be greatly enhanced.
The biggest change was in her two Martial Souls.
The originally bronze-colored Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron seemed to be gradually shedding its skin. It molted off a surface layer, becoming glittering with golden light. Nine majestic and domineering crimson fire dragons circled the cauldron, revealing all sorts of wild movements.
The emerald green Nine Phoenixes' Rites Flute, however, gradually transformed towards an ice-blue color. Its entire body looked as if carved from the marrow of ten-thousand-year profound ice, with streams of ice-blue light flowing and winding around it.
Especially the phoenix pattern on the Nine Phoenixes' Rites Flute, which seemed as if it had come to life.
Lin Yun could even hear the two Martial Souls in Xiao Xiao's hands each emit a majestic dragon's roar and a loud, clear phoenix's cry.
Just by watching this scene, Lin Yun had already confirmed that both of Xiao Xiao's Martial Souls had evolved.
The Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron had absorbed the Qiluo Tulip's power of the sun, while the Nine Phoenixes' Rites Flute had absorbed the Qiluo Tulip's power of the moon's essence.
No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call them the Nine Dragon Cauldron and the Cold Phoenix Flute now.
A night passed, and the evolution of Xiao Xiao's Martial Souls was reaching its end. The dense soul power fluctuations on her body were gradually subsiding, and Xiao Xiao opened her eyes at just the right moment.
Her emerald green long hair had turned a silver-white color like the essence of moonlight, and her eyes of the same color had transformed into a crimson hue that carried a hint of nobility and majesty.
White hair, red eyes! Great, great, great, a white-hair enthusiast's ecstasy, white-hair harem +1!
Lin Yun would never have thought, even if beaten to death, that merely absorbing an Immortal Herb could cause such a change in Xiao Xiao. Not only did her Martial Souls evolve, but even her appearance was altered.
Xiao Xiao's current temperament was quite contradictory. Although her facial features and figure were still in the original loli mold, at first glance, she seemed utterly like a mature and elegant woman. That noble and sacred aura that kept people at a distance—how could a loli possibly possess it?
"Come, see what you look like now?" Lin Yun smiled mischievously, taking a life-sized mirror from his soul tool and placing it in front of Xiao Xiao.
The little loli, who had just woken up, was drawn in by Lin Yun's words before she had time to feel her own changes.
What entered her eyes was a loli empress with white hair and red eyes, her brows and eyes filled with majesty and nobility, making her venerable appearance somewhat difficult to look at directly.
It was not strange. With both a dragon and a phoenix, these two existences were symbols of imperial power and nobility in any world. Furthermore, Xiao Xiao combined the dragon and phoenix Twin Martial Souls into one, so it was only natural for such a change to occur.
The little loli was directly stunned.
This... is me?
