Douluo: The Return of the Holy Emperor, the beginning of the liquidation of Bibi Dong

Chapter 34: Fooling the Snow Emperor
On the ice field where the wind and snow had subsided, three figures were facing each other. The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor were surrounding Gu Moran with a pincer attack.

The extremely beautiful, emerald green scorpion sparkling with gemstone light shook her front claws. The two large front claws, which were at least one meter long, opened and closed, as if they could clamp down on everything in the world. Even a hundred thousand year old soul beast could not resist their sharpness. The Ice Emperor's eyes, as delicate as citrine, were filled with strong hostility. Once she failed to reach an agreement on the matter, she would attack without hesitation.

Compared to the Ice Emperor who was full of vigilance and hostility, the Snow Emperor was much more at ease. However, her eyes, which were more beautiful than sapphires, never left Gu Moran for a moment, and a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.

"Xue Di, I am not here for your spirit ring, so please do not be hostile to me. On the contrary, I want to make a deal with you, a deal that will benefit both you and me."

Gu Moran had her usual gentle smile on her face as she looked at Xue Di and spoke softly. But before Xue Di could reply, Bing Di beside her spoke up to remind her.

"Xue Di, don't be fooled by this human. Humans are the most untrustworthy."

Xue Di said nothing, but just looked at Gu Moran silently, her eyes fell on the Hanhai Qiankun Cover in his right hand. A human with a divine weapon came to her to make a deal, and Xue Di felt a little doubtful.

From the fight just now, we know that Gu Moran is an extremely powerful fire-attribute soul master, and he has already completed the ninth ring. It is impossible for him to add the tenth soul ring, unless he can't control his martial soul, so he wants to make a deal with her and let her help him suppress his martial soul?
This is not a blind guess. Although Xue Di has lived in the Arctic ice field for a long time, she is quite familiar with human soul masters. She knows that some soul masters are born with powerful martial spirits, but they cannot be controlled and need to be suppressed through various means, otherwise it will endanger the soul masters themselves.

"What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

Retracting her gaze, Xue Di asked him slowly in a cold and aloof voice.

It seems like there is hope. A hint of smile flashed across Gu Moran's eyes.

"Xue Di, how many years have you been cultivating now?"

When asked about his cultivation, Xue Di was silent for a moment but did not hide anything.

"Just over 600,000 years."

Soul beasts do not gain one year of cultivation every year they live, but like soul masters, they improve their cultivation through practice. For example, Snow Empress, although she has 600,000 years of cultivation, she has actually only lived for less than 50,000 years.

As a snow goddess born and raised in the Arctic ice field, Snow Empress's talent is even greater than that of Emperor Tian.

If there is a position of Ice God, she would be the most perfect successor.

When soul beasts reach 100,000 years old, they have two paths to choose from.

One is to transform into a human, shed the body of an animal, live in the human world for hundreds or thousands of years, and finally either die before maturity or die of old age.

The second is to continue practicing after overcoming the heavenly tribulation. By overcoming the heavenly tribulation again and again, one will eventually either turn into ashes under the thunder or die before the end of his life.

"Six hundred thousand years. It seems that the Snow Queen has survived six heavenly tribulations. Are you sure you can survive the seventh?"

The soul beast's heavenly tribulation becomes more ferocious and terrifying each time. In the original novel, it was because the Snow Emperor had no confidence in surviving the seventh heavenly tribulation that she chose to use the 100,000-year-old snow lotus, abandon her cultivation, and transform into a human.

"Human, whether the Snow Emperor can survive the seventh catastrophe is none of your business. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

Bingdi was very dissatisfied when he saw Gu Moran asking so many questions. He raised his big claws as if he wanted to pinch his mouth off.

Xue Di looked at Gu Moran deeply. She had just experienced the sixth heavenly tribulation and it took her over a hundred years of recuperation to recover. She was indeed not sure about the seventh heavenly tribulation. She was even preparing to use another body to transform into another human.

She shook her head and gave her answer.

Gu Moran ignored Bingdi and continued to ask.

"Xue Di, do you think it is possible for a soul beast to become a god after a million years of cultivation?"

Upon hearing this question, Xuedi and Bingdi were silent.

The reason why these fierce beasts practice so hard and overcome tribulations is that they want to break through the limit of one million years and become gods with the body of soul beasts. But this is too difficult. From ancient times to now, no soul beast has ever done it.

"Human, I know you want to say that it's a lie that soul beasts can break through the limit of one million years and survive ten tribulations to become gods, but so what? If we want to survive, we have to keep practicing and survive tribulations, whether it's ten times or a hundred times, it makes no difference."

Xue Di is truly a clear-headed person. She has never believed that one can become a god by breaking through the limit of one million years or going through ten heavenly tribulations. She just wants to keep living.

Not only her, but other fierce beasts in Douluo Continent all know that it is a lie to become a god in a million years, because in order to become a god, one must possess a godhood.

After the death of the Dragon God, there was no longer any room for animal gods in the divine world.

Bingdi also nodded in agreement with Xuedi's words.

"Xue Di, if I tell you I have a way to help you become a god, would you believe me?"

As soon as Gu Moran finished speaking, Xue Di shook her head decisively. She didn't believe it.

The Ice Emperor also showed a look of contempt. You haven't even become a god yet, and you are helping the Snow Emperor to become a god. Who are you trying to fool?

"The God Realm does not allow soul beasts to become gods. Even if you have a way to help me become a god, the God Realm will not allow me to enter. Those gods will even try to wipe me out."

Xue Di said coldly, and Gu Moran also knew that what she said was true. Once a soul beast really reached the god level, gods from the god realm would come down to the world to execute it or enslave it. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was the best example, and was used by Shura God and Sea God as a tool for Tang San's divine test.

"What if he didn't become a god through the body of a soul beast, but through another method?"

His words aroused the curiosity of Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor. Another method was that the reason why Snow Emperor wanted to use the body of Snow Lotus to transform into a human was that he wanted to try his luck at becoming a god from a human.

"what way?"

"You sign a contract with me and become my soul. When I become a god and ascend to the divine realm, you will also evolve into a god and share eternal life with me."

As soon as Gu Moran finished speaking, he aroused Bingdi's objection.

"Xue Di, don't trust this human. The contract and the spirit are definitely fake."

Gu Moran had expected Bingdi's distrust, and Xuedi's beautiful blue eyes also revealed a strange look, but she roughly understood what Gu Moran meant.

It means that you can take advantage of him to become a god, but the prerequisite is that you must become the soul he mentions.

If the Snow Queen had gone through her sixth heavenly tribulation, she would definitely have looked down on him. How could she become a vassal of someone else?

But the horror of the sixth heavenly tribulation forced her to think of other ways out, otherwise the seventh heavenly tribulation would come. Even without waiting for the seventh heavenly tribulation, it would still be unclear whether she could break through to the 700,000 years.

Xue Di stared at Gu Moran for a long time before speaking after a while.

"What is the soul you are talking about?"

When Gu Moran heard Xue Di mention the soul, his eyes showed thoughtfulness, thinking about how to explain it to her, and Bing Di also showed a hint of curiosity.

After a moment, he spoke slowly, his voice was as gentle as the morning light, warming people's ears.

"In short, you and I sign an equal contract. Your soul abandons your body and becomes my companion soul. If I live, you will not perish. We live and die together, and we will never leave each other."
