Chapter 1 The Auspicious Beast of the Far North The Divine
Realm.
Before them stood a magnificent palace, seemingly made of gold, resplendent and exuding supreme nobility.
Within the palace, a throne a hundred meters high stood.
A figure sat upon it, a sorrowful expression on his handsome, ethereal face. In his hands, he held a crystal-clear sphere, seemingly crafted from the finest crystal.
Within the sphere, darkness enveloped everything.
"The Ice God has fallen, and his divine position has vanished,"
he muttered to himself, his expression quickly turning ferocious as if he had realized something.
"Could it be that Destruction is doing something? That's quite possible, after all, the Ice God and Destruction had a very good relationship back then. But even so, my plan, that of the Sea God Tang San, is not something you can shake."
This person was none other than Tang San, the enforcer of the Divine Realm, holding the dual divine positions of Asura God and Sea God.
"Wait—"
Suddenly, Tang San's expression changed drastically. His eyes, as vast as the ocean, stared intently at the crystal ball. A bright blue light suddenly flashed within the previously murky crystal.
"This is... the divine light of the Ice God?"
Tang San's handsome eyebrows furrowed, his face grim.
"So you've also set your sights on Douluo Continent? In that case, let me see who can reach the end!"
Little Seven, don't disappoint your father.
The Chosen One of the Planes, I, Tang San, am determined to have!
Whoever stands in my way will die!
The Far North is a universally acknowledged forbidden area for humanity on Douluo Continent. Even powerful figures who have reached the ninth ring of a Title Douluo dare not easily set foot here.
At this moment, deep within the Far North, in its core area,
a pure white figure stood atop a mountain peak, her clear, snow-like eyes fixed intently on the sky above.
She wore only a snow-white long dress, but the dress seemed to be composed of the purest snow in the world. Her face was exquisitely beautiful, otherworldly.
"Is it about to be born?" Her lips parted slightly, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, yet utterly captivating.
Beside her, a flash of emerald light appeared, and a jade-green beastly figure materialized.
It was a small scorpion, entirely emerald green, unlike any beast, resembling instead an exquisitely crafted sculpture.
If any powerful human were present, they would be utterly awestruck.
For this human and beast were none other than the two most ferocious beasts among the legendary Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North: the Snow Empress, the Ice Heaven Snow Maiden, and the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Ice Empress!
Any one of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, if placed outside, would be a super soul beast capable of suppressing a major power!
"This aura... is it auspicious energy?" The Ice Empress's emerald-like eyes were fixed on the sky, her voice equally cold, yet possessing a touch of naivety compared to the Snow Empress.
The Snow Empress nodded slightly. "It should be. Ten thousand years ago, the Ice God's miracle appeared in my far north, but it was like a final testament. The only information in his words was that ten thousand years later, a divine beast belonging to us would be born in my far north."
"Now it seems that the Ice God's words were true."
As she spoke, a surge of joy welled up from the depths of her heart.
Auspicious beasts are born from a world, and the power of fortune they contain can not only bless all things in the world and increase the cultivation speed and life limit of soul beasts, but most importantly, it can also bless ferocious beasts, protecting them with the fortune of heaven and earth, so that they will have no life limit before becoming gods!
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress are now extremely close to their life limit, so the birth of a divine beast at this time is definitely good news for them.
Especially the Ice Empress, although she is extremely powerful and is the king of ice attributes, she is still helpless in the face of the upcoming four hundred thousand-year tribulation.
If the divine beast had not been born, there would only be two paths to take.
First, abandon cultivation and transform into human form; second, resist the heavenly tribulation and fight against fate. Either way, the damage to Ice Empress would be immense, and a single misstep could lead to her utter demise.
"I wonder what kind of soul beast our auspicious beast is, Xue'er. Do you think it might be a spirit of heaven and earth like you?" Outside, Ice Empress's fearsome reputation was enough to make anyone tremble, but in front of Snow Empress, she was like a spoiled little girl.
Her voice was soft and sweet, almost like a loli's.
A smile appeared on Snow Empress's cold and beautiful face. Perhaps the impending birth of the auspicious beast brought hope to their far north, and as the guardian of the far north, Snow Empress's mood was undoubtedly good.
"Don't worry, you'll know soon enough," she said with a light laugh.
Ice Empress nodded, then suddenly turned her head, looking in one direction. "I didn't expect Atai to be here too, along with the Ice Wolf King and the Ice Scale Lizard King."
Just as Ice Empress spoke, the two ferocious beasts suddenly felt a constant tremor beneath their feet.
In the distance, a snow-white giant, over a hundred meters tall, strode towards them. Its eyes were like icy mist, and its mouth opened and closed, constantly spewing out thick fog.
This was none other than the Titan Snow Demon King, the third-ranked of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, and the patriarch of the Titan Snow Demon Clan, one of the strongest races in the Far North.
Beside the Titan Snow Demon King were several beast figures, each possessing an aura of over ten thousand years.
Such a spectacle hadn't been seen in the Far North for countless years.
The Far North, as the habitat of several major soul beast clans on the Douluo Continent, was relatively peaceful. Territorial disputes only occurred on the outskirts, and these soul beasts were mostly leaders of top-tier clans in the middle and core areas.
If these soul beasts united and launched a joint attack on the nearest Heavenly Soul Empire, it would likely inflict heavy losses on the Heavenly Soul Empire in no time!
They might even be willing to destroy a nation if they so desired!
Unfortunately, the soul beasts of the far north are mostly ice-attribute, making the far north the most suitable place for their cultivation.
This is why the humans of Douluo Continent know so little about the soul beasts of the far north. Firstly, humans dare not venture deep into the far north, and secondly, the soul beasts of the far north rarely leave, with even the outer areas having relatively few soul beasts.
Unlike the Star Dou Great Forest, which is more like an ecosystem.
"Snow Empress."
Upon approaching, the Titan Snow Demon King's gaze did not immediately fall on the sky, but instead looked at the Snow Empress. Finding that she ignored him, he was not annoyed, shrugged, and also looked up at the sky. The
Ice Wolf King, Ice Scale Lizard King, Snow Ape King, and other 100,000-year-old soul beasts beside him also raised their heads high, staring at the snow-white vortex above.
Their eyes were full of fervent light.
Just then, the snow-white vortex suddenly began to spin faster, and all the soul beasts could feel that at this moment, the heaven and earth energy of the far north began to surge wildly towards them, all converging into the vortex.
The spirit beasts' eyes burned with increasing fervor. Suddenly, white and blue eyes flashed alternately within the vortex, followed by a beam of light that descended from them.
The Snow Empress vanished in a flash.
Below the mountain peak, a massive crater appeared in the white snow, emanating white and blue light, dreamlike and ethereal.
The dual-colored light acted as an energy shield, preventing the surrounding blizzard from reaching the crater.
Reaching the edge of the crater, the Snow Empress suppressed her joy and stepped into it.
Perhaps sensing her presence, the white and blue light gradually dissipated, revealing a small figure deep within the crater.
The Snow Empress's smile suddenly froze, followed by an expression of disbelief on her snow-white face.
"How could this be?"
