"The Extreme North Land truly seems to harbor powerful Auras."
Qian Renxue and Kai walked through the Extreme North Land. Before long, they arrived at a bottomless ice and snow canyon. Feeling the howling ice and snow Aura from below, Qian Renxue's pretty face subtly grew solemn.
"I can feel a strong Aura from below," Qian Renxue said.
"Why don't we just go down and see?"
Kai and Qian Renxue leaped down. After a considerable time, they finally reached the bottom of the canyon. Surprisingly, the space here was exceptionally vast, but due to its depth, visibility was very low.
"…"
Suddenly, a rustling sound came.
A black figure landed in front of Kai and Qian Renxue.
"This Aura… a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast? Could it be that the Aura I sensed earlier was this mysterious Spirit Beast?"
Qian Renxue vigilantly watched the black figure in front of them. Kai, however, walked forward with a look of helplessness, casually waving a spirit power fluctuation, which directly pulled the black figure out from the faint light ahead.
"Eh? A bug?"
Qian Renxue looked at the bug lying on the ground in surprise.
"This is an Ice Silkworm. The Aura you sensed just now should be the special mimicry skill of the Ice Silkworm clan. It can not only mimic the forms of other Spirit Beasts but also simulate their corresponding Auras."
Listening to Kai's explanation, Qian Renxue suddenly understood: "There's such a miraculous skill! If it can mimic the Aura of a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast, wouldn't it be able to ensure its own safety?"
"Naturally. The Ice Silkworm clan has little combat power; they can only use such methods to protect themselves."
Kai nodded.
Looking at the unconscious Ice Silkworm on the ground, Kai helplessly moved its large body aside.
"Let's go. There are no other Auras here. It seems this Ice Silkworm sensed our approaching Auras and released its mimicry skill, hoping to scare us away."
Kai waved his hand, and the two immediately left the ice and snow canyon.
"I originally thought we'd have a good harvest."
Qian Renxue seemed a bit dejected, but Kai appeared somewhat indifferent: "No matter. The Extreme North Land isn't that big. It's not difficult to draw out some powerful existences here."
"How do you plan to do it?"
Kai smiled at Qian Renxue's question, then took her and flew into the air.
After a brief search, they discovered a group of scorpion-shaped Spirit Beasts not far away. Looking at the group of scorpion Spirit Beasts, Kai laughed heartily: "Found them!"
"These are… Ice Jade Scorpions?"
Qian Renxue knew some Spirit Beast knowledge and was able to identify this group of Spirit Beasts.
"Let's go play with this group of Ice Jade Scorpions."
Kai grinned, directly picked up his Chaos Splitting Axe, and walked over with a benevolent expression.
Seemingly sensing the invisible pressure emanating from Kai, the group of Ice Jade Scorpions instantly panicked and began to flee in all directions. However, every one that tried to escape was caught by Qian Renxue.
"Don't run, don't run, stand still nicely."
Qian Renxue caught the Ice Jade Scorpions one by one. A group of small Ice Jade Scorpions stood there, at a loss.
"Boom!"
Just then, a beam of light shot into the sky, and then a figure soared into the air, landing above Kai and Qian Renxue a moment later.
"Despicable humans, are you looking for death?"
Qian Renxue sensed the figure's Aura, and her expression also changed slightly: "This Aura… also an Ice Jade Scorpion? And a Hundred Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion that has taken human form?"
"Her current strength is probably that of a three hundred thousand year cultivation. Her true form is the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion."
Kai was also a bit surprised.
It seemed that the Ice Empress had increased her cultivation by nearly a hundred thousand years in the next ten thousand years of her cultivation.
Such talent could already be considered excellent.
"Ice Jade Empress Scorpion… three hundred thousand years of cultivation." Qian Renxue gasped, not expecting that such a pleasant play with the Ice Jade Scorpions would actually draw out such a super powerhouse.
In the sky, the Ice Empress looked at Kai with disdain: "Human, you know my identity, but do you also know that today you will die here?"
A powerful ice element energy emanated from the Ice Empress's body. The bone-chilling cold made even Qian Renxue, protected by the Chaotic Aura, feel a trace of chill.
"I'm not here to fight you. Didn't you see I didn't harm your clansmen? I just played with them for a bit."
Kai shrugged and looked at the Ice Empress.
Although the Ice Empress knew Kai hadn't harmed her clansmen, she couldn't tolerate Kai's provocation as a human. Her terrifying power erupted from within her, transforming into a beam of ice light in the air, which blasted down towards Kai.
"Boom!"
Under this ultimate power, Kai still emerged unharmed.
"This human's strength… seems very strong. I am about to undergo my third great heavenly tribulation, and absolutely cannot afford any mishaps, nor can I be injured…"
The Ice Empress thought to herself, then looked at Kai with cold eyes: "Human, what is your purpose?"
"I came in search of the most powerful existence in the Extreme North Land. Don't tell me it's just you."
Kai stated his purpose, but he was also afraid that the strongest in the Extreme North Land was indeed the Ice Empress, in which case he might return empty-handed.
"The most powerful existence… What do you want to do?"
The Ice Empress was slightly stunned, looking at Kai with great confusion.
"To be honest, I need a million year spirit ring, so I came to the Extreme North Land to try my luck. I knew of your existence, so I used your clansmen to draw you out. You must know more than I do."
Kai sighed, his gaze fixed on the Ice Empress, saying: "Therefore, my purpose for coming to the Extreme North Land this time is to find a million year level Spirit Beast. If one exists, you will take me to see it."
"?"
The Ice Empress looked at Kai with a cold expression: "In the end, you still want a spirit ring? Why should I take you there? Do you really think all Spirit Beasts will kill each other?"
"You brat, you're not listening to reason, are you?"
Kai pouted and instantly appeared in front of the Ice Empress, grabbing her by the neck. A massive force swept over, making it difficult for the Ice Empress to breathe, as if her neck was about to be completely crushed the next second.
"You…!"
The Ice Empress's pupils constricted violently. She hadn't expected Kai's strength to be so immense.
"From what you said, such an existence should be there, right? Lead the way, Sister Ice Empress."
Kai still had a benevolent smile on his face.
Facing the threat of death, the Ice Empress finally compromised, struggling to nod..
