"Just a re human with so skills? Take two more of my moves!" The Fla Lord was hot-tempered and didn't give Tianlin any chance to explain.
If it had been before, Tianlin really had the sinister intention of turning the Fla Lord into his soul ring. But now that he'd obtained his eighth ring, he had no more killing intent—he was only here to uncover the truth.
But with not even a chance to speak, Tianlin could only sigh helplessly. He summoned his magic sword, preparing to face his opponent seriously.
The Fla Lord unleashed a barrage of Fla Bombs—countless high-temperature fireballs filling the sky so densely that not even a drop of air could pass through. Tianlin had seen this move from Yan before, but Yan could only summon six fireballs at his limit. The Fla Lord, however, was making it look like a teor shower.
"Tianlin, be careful. This move is extrely powerful. Last ti I fought it, I only survived with my Ice Empress body shield in the far north, but here, in this scorching place, the power is several tis stronger. Even at my peak, I'd need to go all out." The Ice Empress warned. She had fought the Fla Lord before and knew how formidable it was.
That's why the Ice Empress was so wary and once asserted that if she and the Snow Empress were away, no one in the Far North could stand against the Fla Lord.
"It's fine. Eighth soul skill: Spiral Radiance Swallows Sun and Moon!" Tianlin smiled calmly. When it ca to attack range, few could surpass his eighth soul skill.
With a single move, Tianlin tore open space, forming a massive black hole. Instantly, all the fireballs were sucked in. Tianlin didn't stop, continuing to swing his sword and expand the black hole. All the fire in the Fla Valley was absorbed, and the temperature around them began to drop.
"Without your flas, let's see how you, the Fla Lord, can be reborn from fire." Tianlin pointed his sword at the Fla Lord. This guy had attacked him repeatedly—did it really think he had no temper?
The Fla Lord was stunned at this mont. "Impossible! The flas of this Scorching Hell were bestowed by my master himself. Not even the extre water attribute could extinguish them, but now they're all gone?"
"Master?" Hearing this, Tianlin realized his suspicions were correct. There had to be so incredible existence here—otherwise, just the Fla Lord alone couldn't have created such a vast and stable space.
"Fla Lord, do you still rember ?" While the Fla Lord was dazed, the Ice Empress sent a soul ssage.
The Fla Lord had stayed in this valley for over a hundred thousand years, rarely eting anyone except its master. The only other mory it had was of the ti when the Angel God and Sea God ascended—two gods appearing in a short span destabilized the Douluo Continent's lower plane, creating a rift. It was during a trip through this rift that the Fla Lord encountered the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion.
That was its first opponent outside, and unexpectedly, it lost imdiately. The terrifyingly strong Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion drove it straight back to Scorching Hell.
"Fla soul beast, get out of the Far North!" The Ice Empress's furious roar from back then still echoed in its mind. After that, the space slowly healed, and it never left again.
"You... you're that scorpion from back then?" The Fla Lord looked at Ning Rongrong's side. Though it couldn't see the now-spiritual Ice Empress, it could sense her presence.
The Ice Empress nodded. "That's right, it's . Long ti no see. I didn't expect your cultivation to surpass 250,000 years already. It seems cultivating in this valley has truly benefitted you."
"Hmph, I get it. You're here to finish off. Back then, I only accidentally entered your Far North and was endlessly attacked by you. Now you trespass on my territory and expect to be a pushover?" The Fla Lord was furious, abandoning Tianlin and attacking Ning Rongrong instead.
"Rongrong, be careful!"
Tianlin rushed forward to protect her but didn't expect Ning Rongrong to make the first move.
"Sword brother, don't worry!"
The Snow Empress's soul ring flashed. Ning Rongrong chose to face the Fla Lord's attack head-on. This was her first battle as a battle soul master, and she was facing such a strong opponent, but she was unafraid.
In the past, whenever she was in danger, she'd always been behind Tianlin or her grandfathers. But not anymore. She wanted to beco stronger and move forward alongside them.
"Empress' Palm!"
The freezing palm collided with a scorching punch. Fire and ice clashed violently in this strange space. Since all the surrounding fire had been sucked away by Tianlin's black hole, neither side had an environntal advantage—it was a fair duel.
However, the strength gap remained. Before long, Ning Rongrong was at a disadvantage. Her situation was much like Tianlin's during his soul hunt; both had twin martial souls and freakishly strong soul rings, but Tianlin's were both battle types, while Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was a support type, giving her far less power.
Ning Rongrong could easily handle a Soul Douluo now and perhaps scrape by against a weaker Titled Douluo, but against a top-tier opponent like the Fla Lord, she was completely outmatched.
"Snow Empress, Ice Empress, please grant strength." Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth, unwilling to always rely on Tianlin. She wanted to fight alongside him in the future.
Seeing her determination, Tianlin didn't rush to help. He still had second skill of the eight ring: Extre Curse Returns Yin and Yang, so he wasn't worried about Rongrong's safety.
He planned to have Ning Rongrong go to Seagod Island for training, and since he wouldn't be going with her, he wanted to nurture her combat ability now.
"Rongrong, open my Snowy Dance of Ultimate Ice and the Ice Empress's Eternal Freeze Domain at the sa ti," the Snow Empress said.
Ning Rongrong didn't hesitate and activated both her trunk bone and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion's soul ring.
"Ice Sky Snow Empress Soul Bone Skill—Snowy Dance of Ultimate Ice!"
"Second Soul Skill—Eternal Freeze Domain!"
The two most powerful ice domains spread out, making the Fla Lord extrely uncomfortable.
Not only that, the two domains slowly began to rge. This was the unprecedented domain fusion skill of the two Ice-Snow domain.
Once activated, this domain would increase ice-type soul masters' strength exponentially, far surpassing martial soul true bodies, comparable to soul bone armor. At the sa ti, non-ice soul masters or beasts, especially fire-types, would have all attributes weakened by over 80%.
Gradually, Ning Rongrong not only regained her advantage but even pushed the Fla Lord's fire back.
Just as victory seed within reach, a sudden "bang" shattered the domain. The Fla Lord's fire, now unstoppable, was about to strike Ning Rongrong.
At the critical mont, Tianlin teleported in front of her, cutting the flas apart with a single sword swing.
