Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 428 Green Skull Organization Raids, Entering the Far North Forbidden Zone
After the communication ended, Dong Zi'an immediately and swiftly carried out the order, and began to organize the evacuation of people from the far north city.

However, just as the garrison began guiding the crowd to gather and prepare to board the large transport soul-guided vehicles, members of the Green Skull organization, who had been lurking in the shadows outside the far north city, immediately noticed the unusual commotion.

One of the members in charge of surveillance immediately pulled out a communicator and reported urgently in a low voice:

"My lord, there's something amiss inside the city in the far north. Dong Zi'an and Atai are organizing the evacuation of all personnel; it seems they're planning to flee!"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the communicator, followed by an exasperated and furious voice:
"Damn it, those bastards from the Federation have figured out our plan. We can't let them get away like this."

"Everyone, listen up! Move out immediately! At all costs, keep those people in the far north city!"

"Once we have these hostages, we will have the upper hand in negotiating with the Federation!"

The voice went berserk:

"We can't delay any longer! Federation reinforcements must be on their way! While the Far North City only has Dong Zi'an and Titan Snow Demon King as its two high-end combatants, let's concentrate all our forces, take them down, and seize the Far North City!!"

"Follow me!!!"

The eyes of all the Green Skull members who received the order immediately blazed with fanaticism, and they roared in unison:
"For the Goddess of Beauty!"

"For the Goddess of Beauty!!!"

The next moment, Green Skull members hidden everywhere surged out like a tide.

Dozens of black-class mechs painted with skull and crossbones symbols took off first, their powerful firepower instantly covering the gathering crowd and garrison.

Following closely behind were a large number of Soul Masters at the Soul Emperor and Soul Saint levels, who launched a frenzied charge towards the evacuation team like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

"Enemy attack!! Prepare for battle!! Protect the civilians!!"

Dong Zian reacted extremely quickly, immediately letting out a roar. His red mecha was instantly armed and soared into the sky to meet the enemy's mecha horde.

"Roar!!!"

Titan Snow Demon King Atai also let out a deafening roar, instantly revealing part of his true form. His huge hand, carrying terrifying cold air, slammed towards the charging Green Skull Soul Master.

The federal garrison and the Titan Snow Demon race reacted immediately, quickly forming ranks and desperately covering the retreat of the panicked civilians while resisting the fierce attack.

The far northern city, a peaceful border town on the ice and snow that had been peaceful for many years, was suddenly plunged into war and chaos.

……

In the remote and isolated depths of the far north, inside that warm ice cave.

After a period of rest, Lu Jun and Leng Yaozhu have both recovered to their best condition.

"Teacher, are you ready?" Lu Jun stood up, stretched his limbs, and looked out at the still raging wind and snow outside the cave.

Leng Yaozhu also stood up, the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire flowing between her fingertips, and nodded solemnly:
"Get ready. Whatever lies ahead, your teacher will be there for you."

After checking their belongings one last time, the two took a deep breath and resolutely stepped out of the warm cave, once again plunging into the frigid storm that could devour everything.

Their goal was clear: the deepest part of the far north, a mysterious place that the Federation had designated as an absolute forbidden zone, but which now might be hiding a huge change and crisis.

After Lu Jun and Leng Yaozhu felt that they had been walking for several hours, suddenly, as if they had crossed an invisible boundary, the surrounding scenery changed drastically.

The two immediately realized that they had truly stepped into the far north, a region designated as an absolute forbidden zone by the Federation!
The environment here is completely different from the harsh conditions we experienced before; it has risen to another level of terror that is difficult to comprehend. No longer is it the endless snowstorm obscuring our vision or the howling wind filling our ears.

Rather... the whole world seemed to have been assimilated and frozen by some absolute force.

As far as the eye could see, there was an endless expanse of pure white, so pure it was breathtaking.

The earth was white, the distant icebergs were white, and even the sky above seemed to be completely covered by a thick layer of ice crystal clouds that emitted a faint white light, presenting an eerie pure white.

The terrifying, silent snowstorm raged here in a far more deadly way.

Those were not falling snowflakes, but countless tiny ice crystals, as fine as dust yet containing extreme cold, like billions of tiny ice blades, silently cutting and freezing anything that dared to intrude at an astonishing speed.

The temperature dropped to an unbelievable level.

Leng Yaozhu even felt like her mind was about to freeze.

She subconsciously tried to activate the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, wanting to see if her fire could be effective outside the protective range of Lu Jun's coat.

However, a scene that made both her and Lu Jun gasp in shock occurred.

That cluster of Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, which should have been burning fiercely and capable of melting everything, had just left her fingertips and hadn't even had a chance to emit much light and heat when, under this absolute low temperature, it instantly... froze.

Yes, it solidified!
The flames seemed to transform into some kind of red, translucent amber-like crystal, maintaining their leaping posture, yet completely frozen in mid-air, becoming a small, eerie fire-ice sculpture.

The flames were frozen into ice!

This scene, which completely defies common sense, is happening right before our eyes, demonstrating the terrifying dominance of this forbidden zone, which is like absolute zero.

"This...this place..."

Leng Yaozhu's voice trembled with disbelief as she looked at the frozen flame, a chill she had never felt before rising from the depths of her soul.

She looked at Lu Jun beside her with immense relief, and said with lingering fear:

"Thank goodness... thank goodness you were here to protect me. Otherwise, with my abilities, I probably would never have had the chance, nor the possibility, to set foot in this legendary forbidden zone in my entire life, and I wouldn't even know how I died..."

Lu Jun also exhaled, his breath forming a long white mist in the air.

Surprisingly, the white mist he exhaled appeared unusually gentle, without any sign of coldness.

The extreme cold of the far northern forbidden zone, which is enough to freeze flames and annihilate everything, was like a cool spring breeze to him. Not only did it have no negative effects, but it also made the Ice Abyss Sword in his body feel joyful. Endless power was surging into his body from all directions, making him stronger than ever before.

He suddenly understood why he could sleep for ten thousand years in the far north, and why no one could steal his divine artifact.

Even Leng Yaozhu, who possesses a four-word battle armor and a cultivation level of ninety-eight, could not withstand such a harsh environment.

If she were to leave her protection, Leng Yaozhu would probably be overwhelmed on the spot, unable to even withstand the force.

Not to mention the Ice Jade Scorpion clan protecting this forbidden area.

It's safe to say that almost no one could break in.
