Heavy snow falls endlessly in this region, and the howling winds seem to possess their own intelligence, constantly whistling around the outskirts of the far north. Accompanied by the bone-chilling cold snow, the far north is completely transformed into a dead zone of ice.
But the greatness of life is revealed in this moment, no matter how terrible or how inhospitable the place may be! There is always the brilliance of life shining through.
Now, it has been a month since Shrek Academy began its vacation. Huo Yuhao, wearing a snow survival suit that looks incredibly bulky but offers excellent warmth and defense, has walked step by step from the outer edge of the Arctic Ice Plains into the dead zone, witnessing the countless lives thriving in this desolate place.
He casually picked up a ten-year ice silkworm disguised as a snowflake, which was hidden at his feet under the mental detection of his first spirit ring, and threw it into an area that he perceived as relatively safe.
After a month of travel, in this desolate place, he saw a glimmer of life itself. Because his soul master system no longer required hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings, he became more tolerant of the soul beast race and even more unwilling to destroy life. At this moment, under the guidance of the two demigods, Huo Yuhao had a greater appreciation for life and a greater reverence for nature.
"Sister Tianmeng, how far is it from here to the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan's territory? You know, I only have 30 Soul Power Milk Bottles left that I've been making recently. At this rate, I can only last another ten days before I have to return to the human world."
"By the way, I also wanted to ask, why are all the soul power storage devices nowadays called 'milk bottles' once they reach level four?"
"Oh dear, Xiao Yuhao, don't rush. According to my memory, we're almost at the outer edge of Ice Jade Scorpion's territory. After all, I passed through here when those three guys were chasing me. You just need to walk forward for about half a day, take out my remains, and you can hoist Ice Emperor up!"
"As for the baby bottle issue? Evil Lord, it's your turn to explain!"
"...Actually, this question is quite simple. About ten thousand years ago, right? Your human world's strongest emperor, Lin Hao, created a level 10 auxiliary soul tool. I heard that it was a semi-divine artifact forged by combining the characteristics of many top-tier auxiliary martial souls such as the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the Nine Heart Begonia, the Qiluo Tulip, and the Nine-Colored Stone."
"I've heard that the amount of soul power stored in this semi-divine artifact is comparable to the combined power of nearly a hundred Limit Douluo of Beast Martial Souls. If a Soul Master absorbs the soul power within, it will not only bring a percentage increase to all attributes based on the amount absorbed and the total amount of soul power in the body, but it will also provide long-term tendon and marrow cleansing, improving aptitude."
"Although this rumor has not been truly verified, the idea that long-term marrow cleansing can improve one's aptitude has become common knowledge across the continent. After all, for nearly a thousand years, the direct descendants of the major families of the Liuli Empire have never had a soul power lower than level 20 of the Innate Realm."
"Moreover, because the younger the human soul master, the greater the benefits from this semi-divine artifact, making it especially suitable for children, Emperor Lin Hao specially designed it to resemble a baby bottle and named it the 'Leisurely Baby Bottle'."
"Of course, there are also rumors that it is because of obtaining this semi-divine artifact that one can use a huge amount of soul power to open a way out in any desperate situation, and because it is shaped like a baby bottle, it is also known as the 'Easy Baby Bottle'."
"And for this reason, many soul masters in later generations designed soul power storage equipment that was similar to the original, and after reaching level four, they were all called milk bottles."
Tianmeng: "..."
Huo Yuhao: "..."
"Hey, Evil Lord? Are you sure you're a soul beast? How do you know so much about it?"
“Yes, yes, I agree with Yuhao on this point. Even though Di Tiandu has been so scared of that emperor that he hasn’t dared to leave the Star Dou Great Forest for so many years, he still doesn’t know a fraction of what you do!”
"Imagine a non-human species that can easily beat your father down, kill you, and bully your descendants living right at your front door. Your father offended him back then, and his henchmen were incredibly skilled fighters. What else could you do besides frantically investigate him?"
“……………”
At this moment, the invincible image of the Evil Lord in Huo Yuhao's mind collapsed instantly.
——————
"Yuhao, let's stop here! If we go any further, we'll really be running into the scorpions' territory, and it won't be easy to escape."
Tianmeng's voice carried a hint of listlessness and melancholy, as if she were revisiting an old haunt or something else entirely.
However, despite her somewhat low mood, she still moved with remarkable agility. She took out the silkworm molt, released her aura, and before long, a giant scorpion with a beauty that transcended species, its entire body seemingly made of crystal, exuding a heavenly charm on the howling wind and snow of the far north ice plain, walked without hesitation to Tianmeng, who had just activated her disguise soul skill and regained her vitality.
"Tianmeng, you actually dare to come back? Aren't you afraid I'll devour and refine you?"
"Devour and refine me? Now that I have surpassed the million-year limit and achieved godhood, do you still think I am the same person I was back then?"
On the far north ice plains, two terrifying auras clashed with each other. Even though the Ice Emperor, due to his racial talent and his own extraordinary abilities, had become a 600,000-year-old ferocious beast on Douluo Star, where the waters were much deeper than before, he was still unable to escape.
However, the difference between gods and non-gods still allowed Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, with only a wisp of soul, to overwhelm Ice Emperor with its overwhelming power.
Like a beautiful gem carved from emerald crystal and inlaid with gemstones, it revealed its human form in a burst of light.
Ice Emperor showed respect for the strong when he saw Tianmeng, who was now truly capable of defeating him and threatening him. He was both delaying the arrival of Snow Emperor and trying to find out why Tianmeng had come.
"Tianmeng, tell me your purpose in coming to the far north."
Despite her petite stature, Hyotei's aura was in no way weak; she exuded true majesty and radiated an aura of supreme authority.
Faced with this unique temperament cultivated to truly determine the life and death of all beings, Tianmeng, who was no longer the same as before, simply smiled and let it pass. A stream of light escaped from between his eyebrows, turning into a ball of memory light. With a wave of his hand, he sent it flying into Bingdi's hand.
"This is what I've seen and heard on the mainland during this time. After all, I don't like to talk nonsense these days. If you dare, then take a look. If you don't dare, then I'll go find the Snow Emperor. By the way, there's some news about Xue'er in here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Hyotei, who had been hesitant as she looked at the memory orb sent by Tenmeng, slapped it directly onto her forehead.
