Reward: Soul Beast age increased by 30,000 years! True Dragon Bloodline further purified! Hellfire evolved into Ultimate Fire!
"Three... 330,000 years! True Dragon Bloodline!"
"Three-Headed Scarlet Demonic Mastiff! Controls Hellfire!"
"Thirteenth place? Even it can only rank thirteenth?"
"Star Dou Great Forest... What kind of place is this, exactly?"
They went crazy!
The entire Continent went completely crazy!
If Zi Ji's 300,000 years inspired fear, then the Red King's 330,000 years and the descriptions of 'True Dragon Bloodline' and 'Ultimate Fire'...
…brought about complete despair!
This was already a creature that should only exist in legends!
It sounded even higher-tier than a Hell Demonic Dragon.
Any single aspect would be enough for it to stand at the peak of Soul Beasts, yet it was only ranked thirteenth!
Then what kind of incredible existences must the top twelve be?
Star Dou Great Forest, Core Area.
The Titan Giant Ape Er Ming and the Sky Azure Bull Python Da Ming were completely numb.
Their two massive bodies almost curled into a ball, fearing to attract the attention of the true big shots beneath the lake.
They now realized with utmost clarity...
...how ridiculous and insignificant their so-called 'Forest King' title was... Beneath the Lake of Life, in a hidden space.
The Red King's three ferocious heads simultaneously let out a low roar.
It had long anticipated its thirteenth-place ranking.
As the golden light integrated, its age soared to 360,000 years, and its True Dragon Bloodline became even purer.
The Hellfire within its body was further refined, successfully evolving into Ultimate Fire.
The destructive fluctuations emanating from its body made Zi Ji and Yao Ling instinctively move away.
"The Red King is also on the list."
Di Tian's tone was calm, "Next, it should be Xiong Jun, Myriad Demon King, and also... those fellows from the sea and the Extreme North."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, her purple eyes showing no surprise, only a bottomless calm.
Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu gazed at the heavenly curtain, his face, that of a level 99 Limit Douluo, revealing a look of almost lost shock.
He slowly exhaled a turbid breath, his voice slightly hoarse: "330,000 years... True Dragon Bloodline... The Star Dou Great Forest's foundation is terrifying indeed!"
"Issue an order: all Spirit Hall members, without a direct command from me, are forbidden from entering the Star Dou Great Forest's mixed zone for any reason!"
"Those who disobey will be expelled from Spirit Hall!"
"Specifically warn Bibi Dong to be more stable!"
Gold Crocodile Douluo, Azure Luan Douluo, and others were already shaken to their core.
Upon hearing this, they complied with solemnity.
They knew that the High Priest was truly afraid!
Afraid that Spirit Hall's foundation would be destroyed in the hands of these incomprehensible, terrifying existences.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and other forces were now silent as cicadas, not even daring to discuss it.
Their only thought now was to pray that these monsters would forever stay deep within the Star Dou Great Forest and never emerge.
Big Dipper Academy.
Lu Xiao looked at the Red King's information, a slight curve on his lips: "This Red King fellow, while a bit hot-tempered, its strength is quite good."
"Thirteenth place, that's fair enough."
He glanced at the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger lying beside him.
The little fellow had also perked up its ears, and a hint of solemnity and... eagerness flashed in its crimson tiger eyes?
Clearly, the Red King's power had also stirred this evil tiger's competitive Martial Soul.
Ning Rongrong and the others looked at the terrifying Soul Beast names and ages on the heavenly curtain, feeling their previous worldview utterly crushed.
Only then did they understand.
What an incredible power their dean possessed to be able to subdue a Ferocious beast like the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger so obediently!
The entire Douluo Continent.
Whether human kingdoms or Soul Beast territories, all fell into a strange silence.
It was the trembling and speechlessness that came from the depths of the Soul...
...when facing absolute power and unknown terror.
The shadow of the Star Dou Great Forest had never loomed so heavily over everyone's hearts as it did now.
The continuous appearance of Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts completely declared the insignificance of human Soul Masters in terms of individual power.
And the soul beast ranking list was far from over.
The twelfth place was about to be revealed.
Would it come from the even more mysterious and unpredictable... ocean?
Or would it still be a Soul Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest?
Endless fear and anticipation grew wildly in the silence.
Just as the entire Continent was still immersed in the shock brought by the Red King's three-headed destructive appearance.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The golden light on the heavenly curtain suddenly changed its attribute.
An extremely cold aura, as if capable of freezing the Soul, instantly permeated the air, sweeping away the heat and ferocity left by the Red King earlier.
The golden light converged, and a stunning yet dangerous projection slowly emerged.
It was a scorpion, crystal clear like imperial green jade, over ten meters long, with a flawless streamlined body, like a top-tier work of art.
Most striking was its highly raised scorpion tail, the stinger of which was a deep azure blue.
Just the projection alone made observers feel as if their Souls were about to freeze.
A pair of ice-blue compound eyes gazed indifferently at the World, surrounded by visible ice-blue cold Qi.
Wherever it passed, even space showed faint ice cracks.
soul beast power ranking list, Twelfth Place: Ice Empress (Ice Jade Empress Scorpion)!
Soul Beast Age: Approximately 380,000 years
Affiliation: Far North
Evaluation: Second of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North, absolute master of Ultimate Ice. Its Ice Jade Scorpion Tail contains terrifying cold power capable of freezing even the Soul, an artist of slaughter born in extreme cold.
Reward: Soul Beast age increased by 40,000 years! Purity of Ultimate Ice increased! Ice Jade Scorpion Tail granted cold poison power!
"380,000 years! Ultimate Ice!"
"Far North! It's a Soul Beast from the Far North!"
"This... this scorpion is too beautiful, but also too dangerous!"
If the Ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest gave a feeling of tyranny and destruction...
...then the appearance of the Ice Empress brought an elegant yet deadly extreme cold.
That jade-like body, that azure-blue scorpion tail.
Beneath its beautiful exterior lay terrifying power that could instantly take a life... Far North, Core Ice Cave.
The Ice Empress looked at her perfect projection on the heavenly curtain, her azure-blue scorpion tail gently swaying, emitting a joyful Spiritual fluctuation.
She seemed a little surprised by her twelfth-place ranking.
Believing her ranking was a bit low!
But more than that, she was satisfied with the reward.
"Boom!"
A golden light pillar pierced through the endless snow and descended, increasing her age to 420,000 years.
The Ultimate Ice energy within her body became even purer and more condensed.
The azure-blue light on her scorpion stinger grew deeper, now possessing deadly cold poison power.
"Finally broke through to 400,000 years, and there was no Heavenly Tribulation. The rewards from this heavenly curtain are too strange!"
The Ice Empress looked at the ranking list in the sky with a solemn gaze, feeling very confused.
However, beside her, the Snow Empress's ice-blue eyes showed no joy.
Instead, they were more solemn than ever before.
"I speculate that the appearance of the heavenly curtain might have obscured the rules of the Douluo Continent and the God Realm, hence we don't need to undergo the Lightning Tribulation every 100,000 years. This can also be considered an Opportunity for our Soul Beast Clan!"
The Snow Empress said solemnly.
"I'm 380,000 years old, Ultimate Ice... and I'm only ranked twelfth."
The Ice Empress's voice carried an unprecedented heaviness, "Snow Empress, it seems you were right. The powerful Soul Beasts hidden in the shadows of this Douluo Continent are far more numerous and terrifying than we imagined."
She had originally thought that with her strength, she could at least break into the top eight.
But now, she was only ranked twelfth.
This meant there were still eleven even more terrifying Ferocious beasts ahead.
How many more monsters were still hidden in the Star Dou Great Forest?
And what ancient existences slept deep within that vast ocean?
A strong sense of crisis lingered in the Snow Empress's heart.
The Far North, perhaps, was not as safe and detached as she had imagined.
Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life bottom.
"Oh? That scorpion from the Far North?"
The Red King's middle head spewed a wisp of flame, "The girl who plays with ice, ranked twelfth, that's reasonable."
Zi Ji's Dragon shadow swayed slightly: "Ultimate Ice is indeed a good power, but just this is not enough to threaten us."
A hint of understanding flashed in Di Tian's golden Dragon eyes: "Two of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North have appeared. Next, it should be the Snow Empress."
"And the Sun Moon Continent... that old fellow should be appearing soon too."
Spirit Hall, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong looked at the beautiful and dangerous projection of the Ice Empress, feeling the extreme coldness that, even through the heavenly curtain, made her Soul Power circulation slightly sluggish.
Her face grew even uglier.
Another hunting target she could not hope to reach!
The Ultimate Ice attribute, now with a poison attribute, coincidentally had a similar effect to the potent poison attribute of her Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul.
If she could obtain its Soul Ring, Soul Bone... Alas, this was destined to be mere fantasy.
"The Far North, it seems, is also a desperate place."
She murmured to herself, adding the Far North to her list of forbidden zones.
All forces across the Continent.
By this point, they had completely lost the ability to think.
The terror of the Star Dou Great Forest had not yet fully revealed itself, and now the mysterious Far North had bared its fangs.
A 380,000-year-old Ultimate Ice Soul Beast—this had already exceeded the limits of their comprehension.
Many Soul Masters even harbored an absurd thought in their hearts.
Are humans truly the Dominators of this Continent?
...Big Dipper Academy.
Lu Xiao looked at the Ice Empress's projection and nodded: "Ice Jade Empress Scorpion, the darling of Ultimate Ice, not bad at all!"
He glanced at the lazy Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger beside him.
The fellow seemed uninterested in the Ice Empress, yawned, and continued to feign sleep.
Ning Rongrong looked at the jade-like scorpion, her girlish Heart-Nature making her find the Ice Empress very beautiful.
But the coldness made her hesitant to look too long: "Such a beautiful scorpion, but it feels so cold."
Zhuqing felt the extreme cold of the Ultimate Ice, and a hint of recognition flashed in her clear, cold eyes.
This pure and ultimate power was precisely what she pursued.
Ye Lingling, on the other hand, sensed a completely different form of 'life' from the Ice Empress.
It was an alternative vitality born in extreme cold.
With the Ice Empress making the list.
A corner of the Far North's mysterious veil was lifted.
Everyone realized that the dangerous lands of the Douluo Continent were far more than just the Star Dou Great Forest.
The heavenly curtain's golden light began to converge once more.
This time, the aura became even heavier, even more ancient, as if from the depths of the earth, carrying an unparalleled sense of power and oppression.
The eleventh-ranked Soul Beast was about to be revealed!
Would it continue to be from the Extreme North?
Or return to the Star Dou?
Or... that unfathomable ocean?
The entire Continent held its breath in anticipation.
