Chapter 104: Ice Emperor's Self-Declared Strategy
Di Tian, filled with fury, nearly charged forward to obliterate every last Biphosphorus Flower in sight.
"Don't be rash! I already told you—you can't reveal yourself," Lin Yun quickly stopped the enraged Di Tian, speaking earnestly. "Leave the Biphosphorus Flowers to me and Xue'er. You stay hidden. If that man truly left behind a divine sense, strike it down with the Dragon God Claw the moment it appears!"
"Instead of venting on those mere tools, wouldn't it be far more satisfying to crush the mastermind himself?"
"Understood, Lord. I was too impulsive," Di Tian said darkly after taking a deep breath. "I'll make sure that wretch pays for his deeds."
He bowed to Lin Yun, then stepped back and completely vanished into space.
No one waits forever—except the stealthy old fox himself!
"Xue'er, come out. We're heading out!"
Brilliant golden dragon wings suddenly unfurled from Lin Yun's back as he soared into the sky under his own power.
Xue'er crawled out from his collar, resting on his left shoulder.
"Rest assured, Lord. With my ultimate ice here, that so-called miasma is nothing but a trifling trick," Xue'er said disdainfully, her crystal-yellow eyes glinting as she gazed at the distant pale mist.
Frozen Domain!
A dazzling emerald-green radiance erupted, forming an oval barrier under Xue'er's precise control. It surrounded Lin Yun completely, leaving no gaps.
The barrier was barely two meters from Lin Yun, yet he felt no cold at all. All the frost was strictly contained outside the shield, spreading outward while the space within remained calm and warm.
Such was the absolute temperature control of the Northern Queen—if she wished, even an ultimate ice crystal placed upon fire would never melt.
"Haha! Go! Let's reclaim the legacy that belongs to our soul beast race!" Lin Yun laughed boldly. His golden dragon wings flared with force, propelling him forward like a bolt of golden lightning.
Dragon Soars Through the Nine Heavens!
Golden flames erupted along the scales of his wings, and his speed instantly broke the sound barrier. The edges of his wings tore through the air, leaving two long white vapor trails behind him.
"Magnificent!" Lin Yun shouted, exhilarated by the scenery flashing past at incredible speed. Though his spirit power was rapidly draining, the thrill of flight under his own strength was indescribable.
It was the difference between riding someone else's car and driving your own—the experience of flying with his own power was incomparable.
This was his first time fully unleashing the Golden Shadow Dragon Wings, a hundred-thousand-year external spirit bone transformed by the Golden Dragon King's bloodline. At last, they displayed their true might.
In this state, even a Spirit Douluo could only trail behind his exhaust. To catch up with him, one would need to be a flying-type Titled Douluo—or one equipped with advanced flying soul tools.
Of course, this applied only to straight-line speed; in agility and control, Lin Yun still couldn't match a true Titled Douluo.
"The miasma is coming!"
The world ahead grew increasingly hazy, as if seen through a winter morning fog—beautiful, yet unreal.
Beneath that beauty, however, lurked deadly peril.
Crack—
Boom!
Lin Yun watched as a massive, half-corroded tree collapsed in the distance. Rotten fragments burst into the air and slowly merged with the miasma, strengthening it further.
This was not an isolated sight. Around the fallen tree lay a thick layer of ash, within which fragments of unknown soul beast bones could be seen.
Unlike the pale-gray tree ashes, the bones were stained with a terrifying seven-colored sheen.
"Lord, even if we destroy the poison formation made by the Biphosphorus Flowers now, the damage done to this forest by the miasma is already irreversible," Xue'er said gravely, her tone filled with barely restrained anger.
"Unless a creature akin to a divine beast appears in the Sunset Forest, it will eventually become an ordinary woodland at best, with only thousand-year or lesser soul beasts remaining."
"And with the threat of humans added to that…"
The Extreme North was unlike the Sun Moon Continent, which had collided with the Douluo Continent only a few thousand years ago. It had always bordered Douluo since ancient times.
Xue'er did love the Extreme North, but that didn't mean she had never left it. Though she hadn't gone on a world tour like Di Magellan Tian, she had certainly traveled across Douluo Continent before.
The Sunset Forest, once a rich habitat filled with countless ten-thousand-year soul beasts and even a few hundred-thousand-year ones, was a place she knew well.
Now, upon returning, not even a single ten-thousand-year soul beast remained.
Xue'er felt anger—not as violent as Di Tian's, but tinged with sorrow and empathy.
If not for Lin Yun—if the two Emperors and two Kings of the Extreme North had all perished under heavenly tribulation—and if the human world once again produced a god, would the Extreme North also have ended up like the Sunset Forest, another victim of divine schemes and cruelty?
Well, she guessed right. Ten thousand years later, when that wretch dragged the Abyssal Plane to Douluo Continent, the first ones he slaughtered were indeed those from the Extreme North! (Lin Yun's approval.jpg)
'Indeed, only the Lord is the final lifeline of the soul beast race. Only he is the most reliable pillar of support!' Xue'er thought to herself, lying on Lin Yun's shoulder, sneaking a glance at his profile.
That golden-haired girl from Shrek Academy was right—an individual's achievements are limited. Better to find a powerful shoulder that can shield you from the storm!
No, that's not enough—she must bring Xue Di into this too!
[Love-struck buff activated!]
They had only just entered the Sunset Forest, yet Xue'er had already started her own little scheme, fully unleashing her sharp intellect to play the role of a prophet. Aside from the fact that none of the Northern Kings had died, her predictions about the fate of both the Extreme North and the soul beasts were spot on.
Lin Yun, unaware that Xue'er was plotting how to send Xue Di straight into his bed, continued flying at full speed. The Golden Shadow Dragon Wings on his back drew on his spirit power like a pump, draining it rapidly.
Before long, he could no longer maintain supersonic flight, and the flapping of his wings began to slow.
Nevertheless, he had already reached the densest area of the miasma.
No—the poison here could no longer be called mere miasma. It was now a Biphosphorus Poison Cloud.
The thick, toxic mist had changed from a faint white to a sinister, seven-colored radiance that sent chills down the spine.
But the ultimate ice was indeed worthy of its name. The moment the Biphosphorus Poison Cloud touched the frost barrier of the Frozen Domain, it instantly froze into shards of ice and fell to the ground.
Total annihilation.
