Chapter 73: Heaven-Defying Spirit Beasts and Rewards
Above the heavenly curtain, golden light flowed.
After the announcement of the Sea Region Empress, the "Demon Empress",
it began brewing a completely different aura.
A chilling intent, the Ultimate Ice, capable of freezing time and space and bringing all things to stillness, swept across the entire continent like a tide.
All observers involuntarily shivered, feeling as if their Souls were about to be frozen by this pure coldness.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The golden light converged, and a projection, exquisitely beautiful and aloof, slowly materialized.
It was the phantom of a woman in an ice-blue dress, possessing a perfect countenance sculpted from ice and snow.
Her skin surpassed snow, and her eyes were a pure ice-blue, devoid of a single Impurity, seemingly containing Profound Ice that had not melted for eons.
Simply standing in the void, an absolute majesty flowed around her, commanding extreme cold and towering above all living beings, as if she were the Dominator of ice and snow itself.
Her beauty was breathtaking, but that Ultimate coldness and majesty prevented anyone from daring to harbor the slightest thought of blasphemy.
[soul beast power ranking list, Sixth Place: Snow Empress (Ice Sky Snow Maiden)!]
[Soul Beast Age: Approximately six hundred and seventy thousand years]
[Affiliation: Far North]
[Evaluation: The head of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North, the Supreme Soul Beast of the Ultimate Ice attribute in the world, the sole Ice Sky Snow Maiden Soul Beast. She controls Absolute Zero and can seal thousands of miles in ice. Her strength is virtually invincible in the Far North.]
[Reward: Soul Beast age increased by seventy thousand years! Purity and control over Ultimate Ice greatly enhanced! Skill "Snow Empress's Three Supremacies" power doubled! Half Divine Rank Combat Technique: Ice Tribulation World Annihilation]
"Six hundred and seventy thousand years! Ultimate Ice Supreme!"
"Snow Empress! Is she the true Dominator of the Far North?"
"So beautiful... but also... so cold..."
"Sixth place! A Soul Beast nearly seven hundred thousand years old is only ranked sixth?"
The continent was shocked again.
The appearance of the Snow Empress not only captivated countless people with her peerless beauty and Supreme majesty.
Her terrifying cultivation of "six hundred and seventy thousand years" and Heaven-Defying rewards caused a deep stirring in the Souls of all Soul Masters, especially the Peak Douluo... Far North.
The Snow Empress looked up at her projection on the heavenly curtain, and a subtle ripple of relief finally appeared on her frozen countenance.
She had been suppressing her cultivation precisely because she was uncertain about surviving the seven-hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation.
Now, the heavenly curtain's reward not only allowed her to avoid this life-or-death crisis but also granted her a tremendous increase in strength!
A golden pillar of light penetrated the wind and snow, enveloping her entire body.
She could clearly feel her Soul Beast age instantly Break through the Bottleneck, soaring directly to seven hundred and forty thousand years.
The Ultimate Ice energy within her body became increasingly pure and condensed, as if she were touching the Origin of the Ice Law.
Her control over her skills also reached a brand new Realm; with a single thought, she could cause a thousand miles to freeze.
Most importantly, there was no Heavenly Tribulation!
The heavy pressure that had lingered in her heart suddenly dissipated.
Even with the Snow Empress's state of mind, she couldn't help but feel gratitude and joy at this moment.
"Congratulations, Snow Empress!"
The Ice Emperor nearby felt the Snow Empress's increasingly deep and terrifying cold Qi, and offered sincere congratulations, her azure scorpion tail swaying lightly.
The Snow Empress nodded slightly, a sharp light flashing in her ice-blue eyes: "With this power, no one will dare to violate the majesty of the Far North."
She was not dissatisfied with the sixth-place ranking.
After all, there were five even more unfathomable existences ahead.
She was now more curious: just which monsters were the top five... Star Dou Great Forest, beneath the Lake of Life.
"Snow Empress, six hundred and seventy thousand years, Ultimate Ice..."
Zi Ji's Dragon phantom fluctuated slightly, her tone heavy, "Her strength is probably no less than Xiong Jun's. Now that she has received the reward and avoided the Heavenly Tribulation, surpassing seven hundred thousand years, the Far North will be even harder to conquer."
Xiong Jun let out a low roar.
Although he did not speak, his contained aura indicated that he agreed with this assessment.
The Absolute Zero of the Ultimate Ice would greatly restrain even his Dark Gold Sharp Claws.
The Crimson King's middle head spewed out cautious flames.
"The Extreme North has her and that scorpion, and the sea region has the Deep Sea Demon Whale and the Sea Princess. Although our Star Dou Great Forest is overseen by the Master, he cannot take action. Our overt top combat power does not hold an absolute advantage."
Di Tian's golden Dragon eyes flickered, and he said solemnly, "The Snow Empress is indeed an opponent worthy of attention, however, the ranking has only reached sixth place. The best is yet to come."
...Big Dipper Academy.
Zhuqing stared blankly at the Snow Empress's exquisitely beautiful and aloof projection, feeling the Ultimate coldness and majesty transmitted through the screen, a hint of yearning and shock flashing in her clear, cold eyes.
"A Soul Beast nearly seven hundred thousand years old... the Far North actually hides such a terrifying existence."
She muttered softly to herself.
The slight complacency she had developed due to her rapid increase in strength instantly vanished.
Compared to these ancient beings that have survived for hundreds of thousands of years, her path is still very long.
Rongrong covered her small mouth in amazement: "So beautiful, so powerful... So this is what the Dominator of the Far North looks like. Dean, will we have a chance to visit the Far North someday?"
Lu Xiao lay on his chair and replied lazily, "Want to go? Wait until you can withstand the cold there."
"If the Snow Empress's Emperor Cold Heaven Domain is fully unleashed, even a Titled Douluo who enters will turn into an ice sculpture."
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were also deeply shaken.
Ye Lingling, in particular, could feel the attribute of "Ice" on the Snow Empress, which was pure to the Ultimate, forming a stark contrast with her own "Life" attribute.
——
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Clear Sky Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and other major powers had completely lost the courage to discuss the matter.
Another Supreme Soul Beast, nearly seven hundred thousand years old, had emerged from the Far North.
The dangerous lands of the continent were becoming terrifying one after another.
Their only thought was to restrain their Disciples: they must never set foot in these forbidden areas.
The entire Douluo Continent.
Under the impact of the Ultimate coldness and Heaven-Defying rewards brought by the Snow Empress, the understanding of "power" was refreshed again and again.
The strength and antiquity of Soul Beasts far surpassed the thousands of years of accumulation by human Soul Masters.
The top five!
Only the top five remain!
Amidst extreme shock and anticipation, the continent held its breath, awaiting the unveiling of the final Peak.
Every one of these top five existences likely possesses terrifying power sufficient to overturn the current structure of the continent... Before the coldness brought by the Snow Empress had completely dissipated, the heavenly curtain's golden light once again underwent a strange change.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
An extremely evil and chaotic, terrifying Spiritual fluctuation, seemingly capable of twisting reality and eroding the Soul, swept out like an invisible tide.
This Spiritual Power was completely different from the vast and ethereal nature of the Sea Princess or the strange difficulty of the Myriad Demon King.
It was filled with brutality, destruction, and a cold will that looked down upon all living things.
The golden light twisted and writhed, finally condensing into a heart-stopping projection.
It was an enormous eye!
Its diameter was like a mountain, its entire body a strange color interwoven with dark red and ghostly black, and its pupil was a bottomless Chaos vortex, seemingly capable of swallowing all light and Souls.
Countless dark red nerve bundles, thick as octopus tentacles, danced wildly around the eye.
Simply gazing upon it was enough to drive the weak-willed into madness!
[soul beast power ranking list, Fifth Place: Evil Emperor (Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign)!]
[Soul Beast Age: Approximately seven hundred and fifty thousand years]
[Affiliation: Sun Moon Continent (Evil Demon Forest)]
[Evaluation: The highest Dominator of the Evil Eye Tyrant race, possessing the Ultimate Spiritual attribute. Its Spiritual Power combines terrifying destructive power with uncanny control, making it the absolute overlord of the spiritual plane.]
[Reward: Soul Beast age increased by seventy-five thousand years! Spiritual Power destructive attribute greatly enhanced! Talent Domain "Mental Chaos Storm" range and power increased! Half Divine Artifact: Chains of God]
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand years! Evil Eye Tyrant?"
"This... what kind of monster is this! What a terrifying eye!"
"Such terrifying Spiritual Power? And the destructive attribute? How dreadful must that be?"
"Fifth place! A Soul Beast nearly eight hundred thousand years old!"
"Wait... wait a minute! Affiliation... Sun Moon Continent? What kind of place is the Sun Moon Continent!"
The continent erupted in an uproar again.
But this time, the uproar was filled with more confusion and disbelief!
The Evil Emperor's terrifying and bizarre form and his cultivation nearing eight hundred thousand years were already shocking enough.
But what stunned everyone—including the leaders of the major powers—was the unfamiliar affiliation.
Sun Moon Continent!
A completely unknown place!
