Chapter 159 - Battle Against the Three Great Kings of the Extreme North

 

The Ice Sky Snow Woman, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and the Titan Snow Demon King were all soul beasts at the ferocious beast level. Their intelligence was not low, so they naturally understood what it meant that Wang Li could bring the dead back to life.

However, they were proud beings and unwilling to flatter anyone. In the end, the originally indifferent voice of the Ice Sky Snow Woman softened slightly:

"Human, the Extreme North welcomes your arrival. As long as you do not carry out large-scale slaughter, we will not drive you away."

As soon as these words were spoken, both the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the Titan Snow Demon King expressed their agreement. First, because the Ice Sky Snow Woman had already spoken, and second, although they detested humans, a human capable of reviving the dead somehow appeared much more pleasing to them.

Thus, the previously tense atmosphere quickly eased.

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan both let out a sigh of relief. Then they looked at Wang Li. This was also their first time witnessing his ability to bring the dead back to life.

Shock filled their hearts. If this ability of Wang Li were to spread across the continent, countless soul masters would worship him as a god walking among mortals, simply because reviving the dead was too defiant of the natural order.

As for the revived Purple Jade Sky Ginseng, he quickly understood the situation. Turning around, he said to Wang Li:

"My young friend, thank you for saving my life. Let me introduce you. These three are the Ice Sky Snow Woman, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and the Titan Snow Demon King."

"All of them are ferocious beast-level soul beasts, the true rulers of the Extreme North, also known as the Three Great Kings of the Extreme North."

"With the promise just made by the Ice Sky Snow Woman, you can walk freely in the Extreme North. They likely saw the abilities of your Blue Silver Emperor and intend to win you over."

After hearing this, Wang Li nodded. Originally, he had planned to leave immediately, but now his thoughts became active. The Ice Sky Snow Woman, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and the Titan Snow Demon King were all ferocious beasts with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, comparable to Super Douluo-level beings.

In human society, Super Douluo were extremely rare. Only the worship hall's enshrined elders were all above level 96.

Therefore, weren't these three ferocious beasts the perfect opponents to help him gain experience?

So Wang Li spoke loudly:

"Three seniors, I actually have a request. I possess the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, but I follow the path of combat."

"I have traveled around challenging strong opponents, improving my understanding through battle to break through my limits more quickly. Now that I have met the three of you, I hope to challenge you and surpass my limits through combat."

"I will owe you a favor for this. In the future, if you need my help and it is within my ability, I will certainly do my utmost without hesitation."

Accepting Wang Li's challenge in exchange for a favor from him surprised the three beasts. They had not intended to curry favor with him, yet he had offered himself.

The Ice Sky Snow Woman calmly said:

"Human, we accept your request. You may choose any one of us to challenge at any time. We will not refuse, but neither will we hold back. Prepare yourself mentally."

Wang Li was overjoyed and immediately said:

"Then let's do it today. I have just obtained my eighth soul ring, so it is the perfect time to test its two abilities."

After speaking, Wang Li first released his domain. In an instant, it extended nearly ten thousand meters. Within the domain, vitality flourished. In this frozen land of the Extreme North, all things revived and plants grew rapidly.

Soon, all the plants contributed a portion of their energy. The energy gathered like a vast ocean, but it was quickly absorbed by Wang Li.

He was like a bottomless pit. After absorbing the energy, he returned to his peak state, and the consumption from reviving the Purple Jade Sky Ginseng was fully restored in a short time.

Even the Ice Sky Snow Woman was stunned. Wang Li, merely an eight-ring Soul Douluo, had a domain range that was not inferior to her Snow Dance Radiant Sun.

The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the Titan Snow Demon King were also shocked. They knew how powerful it was for the Ice Sky Snow Woman to cover ten thousand meters with her domain. For this human to achieve the same, could he rival her?

At that moment, Wang Li gathered his soul power. His eyes shone brightly as he clapped his hands:

"Eighth Soul Skill: Celestial Transformation!"

Boom! Boom!

In front of Wang Li, Blue Silver Grass surged wildly. However, unlike before, it did not spread out. Instead, it gathered together, intertwining and weaving…

Endless blue light burst forth, and a terrifying pressure spread. A colossal giant appeared between heaven and earth.

It had the same appearance as Wang Li, but its height exceeded two hundred meters. With its head reaching the sky and feet planted on the ground, it radiated overwhelming dominance.

Everyone was stunned. Even the hundred-meter-tall Titan Snow Demon King seemed like a child in front of this giant, making the shock indescribable.

The Purple Jade Sky Ginseng found it the most unbelievable. His eyes were filled with confusion as he said:

"This is my power. If I had such power, why would I need to rely on such methods to evade heavenly tribulation?"

This was indeed his power, but fused with the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, it had created a new soul skill. The immense life force allowed the Blue Silver Grass to break free from form and manifest in different shapes.

The torso soul bone of the Purple Jade Sky Ginseng contained his original power, granting Wang Li two abilities: burrowing underground and transformation.

They were ultimate life-saving skills. Wang Li could instantly dive a hundred meters underground and move freely beneath the surface. Combined with transformation, he could change not only his appearance but also his aura.

If he did not wish to be found, almost no one could locate him. For example, if he transformed into Tang San, even his aura would match. Even Tang Hao, Ah Yin, Xiao Wu, and the people of Shrek Academy would not be able to tell he was fake based on appearance and aura alone. At most, they might suspect something from his tone or demeanor.

Returning to the main point, Wang Li leaped into the air and landed on the giant's shoulder. He could control the giant, and the terrifying power it possessed even shocked him.

He then looked at the three soul beasts and chose the largest but weakest, the Titan Snow Demon King, as his first opponent. He shouted:

"Titan Snow Demon King, please instruct me!"

Hearing that he was chosen first, the Titan Snow Demon King looked up at the giant, pounded his chest, and roared. For the first time, he was suppressed in size. He shouted deeply:

"Human, I will not hold back!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With that, he charged forward with heavy steps, each step leaving deep pits in the ground.

The earth trembled, the air exploded, and a terrifying pressure surged forward.

Standing on the giant's shoulder, Wang Li looked down and controlled the giant to kick.

Bang! Bang!

The speed was so fast it created afterimages, even producing sonic booms. The Titan Snow Demon King came quickly, but was sent flying just as fast.

His massive hundred-meter body was kicked hundreds of meters away, crashing into a snow mountain before finally stopping.

However, the impact triggered an avalanche, burying him beneath it.

A soul beast with over two hundred thousand years of cultivation, possessing the bloodline of an ancient Titan blessed by the Ice God and comparable to a Super Douluo, seemed almost… unable to withstand a single blow.

"Roar!"

With a furious roar, the Titan Snow Demon King burst out of the snow. Humiliation filled him as he pounded his chest and activated his bloodline:

"Titan Power!"

White light burst from his body, and his form expanded to about 130 meters. Yet, before the 200-meter giant, he still seemed small.

Wang Li controlled the giant without any complex techniques. Relying purely on overwhelming strength, he repeatedly knocked the Titan Snow Demon King down and pummeled him like an adult beating a child.

With blood-red eyes, the Titan Snow Demon King unleashed all his power and roared:

"Extreme Cold Storm!"

In an instant, the weather changed. Violent winds and blizzards formed around him.

Seeing this, Wang Li controlled the giant to charge forward, tearing through the storm. With a single punch, he struck the Titan Snow Demon King's face, twisting it grotesquely and sending him flying again. He crashed to the ground and lay motionless, whether truly unconscious or pretending was unclear.

At this point, Wang Li stopped pursuing and used vines to bind him, activating his second soul skill to heal his injuries.

Then he turned to his next opponent:

"Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, please instruct me!"

The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, only about 1.5 meters in size, was far smaller than the giant's palm, yet her aura was even fiercer than the Titan Snow Demon King's.

After being challenged, she flew forward. Her voice was cold and clear, yet serious:

"Human, you are very strong. Ordinary Soul Douluo are only comparable to seventy- to eighty-thousand-year soul beasts. Even with the sacrifice of the Purple Jade Sky Ginseng, your strength still surprises me."

"But I will defeat you. I will not allow you to challenge the Snow Empress. I will protect her."

The Ice Sky Snow Woman seemed slightly helpless as the atmosphere shifted strangely.

At that moment, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion released her domain:

"Eternal Domain!"

Under the suppression of the Blue Silver Domain, it only covered a few hundred meters, but it still created a favorable environment. She then unleashed her innate skill:

"Wrath of the Ice Emperor!"

Her aura surged as she fired a jade-green beam. It was extremely fast. Although the giant tried to dodge, its left arm was hit.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Ice rapidly formed on the arm and spread across the body, carrying a bone-piercing chill capable of freezing all things.

However, Wang Li had consumed the Octagonal Black Ice Grass, and the giant, formed from his Blue Silver Emperor, was unaffected. He ignored the cold entirely.

Instead, he smashed the ice with his right arm, shattering and shaking it off.

Filled with excitement, Wang Li laughed:

"Now it's my turn!"

The giant stomped forward, shaking the ground, and charged like a blur. Despite its immense power, it was also incredibly fast.

With a single punch, it tore through the air.

The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion was shocked that her usual attack had no effect, but she counterattacked:

"Ice Emperor Armor, Ice Emperor Claws!"

A jade-green ice barrier formed around her, seemingly unbreakable. Behind her appeared a massive phantom of herself, striking forward with giant claws.

Bang!

The phantom shattered, and though the punch's power was reduced, it still sent her flying along with the barrier.

The giant pursued relentlessly, overwhelming her with strength and speed.

Soon, the barrier broke. Wang Li grabbed her body, and with slight pressure, she cried out in pain.

He then released her and used his second soul skill to heal her.

Once she recovered, he tossed her aside. After landing, she looked at the Ice Sky Snow Woman and said tearfully:

"Snow Empress, I failed… I couldn't protect you…"

The Ice Sky Snow Woman ignored her and looked at Wang Li and the giant with a serious expression.

For a human Soul Douluo to possess strength comparable to ferocious beasts with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation shocked her deeply.

At this moment, Wang Li looked at her with growing confidence.

After defeating the Titan Snow Demon King and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, he had fully recognized his strength.

This body, this giant, seemed limitless. Wherever he stood became his battlefield.

With the Blue Silver Domain, he could continuously draw energy to sustain himself.

He then shouted:

"Ice Sky Snow Woman, please instruct me!"

As his words fell, her long hair fluttered and her aura surged. She calmly replied:

"As you wish!"
