The Great Ruler: The Ice Emperor Descends, Freezing the World!

"roar!"

The ice dragon roared, exuding an invincible aura, and charged straight towards the summit of North Spirit Mountain!

On the back of the ice dragon, Bing Tianxiao stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, looking incredibly spirited.

"Wuhu—! Takeoff!"

He shouted excitedly, and didn't forget to turn around and wave at Luo Li.

Luo Li stood beside him, still maintaining her aloof and indifferent demeanor, but the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.

At this moment, not far from the mountaintop.

"Huff...huff...why haven't those two shown up yet?"

As Mu Chen climbed rapidly, he secretly made plans in his mind.

He was heading in the direction where dozens of celestial-level spirit beasts were, so they spread out and climbed the mountain.

I just didn't expect to not see Bing Tianxiao even after getting here...

hold head high--!!!

A deafening dragon roar suddenly erupted from above his head without warning!

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying chill mixed with violent wind pressure descended with a roar!

"What?!"

Mu Chen was startled and looked up abruptly.

The clouds overhead were instantly torn apart, and a huge, dark blue ice dragon roared past in an extremely savage manner!

What made his eyes almost pop out was—

The ice dragon was actually carrying a Black-winged Demon Ape at the Transformation Realm in its mouth!

That once invincible celestial-rank spirit beast was now being held in the mouth of the ice dragon like a toy.

On the massive head of the ice dragon, two figures were looking down at him.

"Hey! Brother Mu Chen, you're pretty fast!"

Bing Tianxiao's teasing voice traveled clearly through the wind to Mu Chen's ears:

"However, I'll accept first place without hesitation! See you at the summit!"

After saying that, he waved at Mu Chen in an extremely irritating way.

boom--!

With a flick of its massive tail, the ice dragon whipped up a gust of wind, instantly surpassing Mu Chen!

Mu Chen: "..."

He froze on the spot, his lips twitching uncontrollably.

This is... cheating, isn't it?!

Just ride your mount and fly up!

What's the point of comparing these things?!

"This guy..."

Mu Chen took a deep breath and watched the figure disappear into the distance.

"He really is a freak... but I won't give up so easily!"

Despite his complaints, he didn't dare pause for a moment, because behind him...

"roar--!!!"

A dozen or so enormous Heavenly Rank spirit beasts, exuding a terrifying aura of the Heavenly Fusion Realm, were chasing after him with bloodshot eyes!

Wherever it went, ancient trees broke and boulders crumbled.

It wasn't just him.

Bingqing, Hao Renjia, and Namu Kui were also chased and ran away in a sorry state.

"Damn it! There are so many Heavenly Rank spirit beasts in this Northern Spirit Mountain!"

Mu Kui couldn't help but curse.

Even Bingqing couldn't kill them all.

The condensed ice wall could only barely hold off the beast horde for a moment before being overwhelmed by the raging spiritual energy.

Amidst their busy schedules, the group looked up and gazed at the figure riding the ice dragon, gracefully disappearing into the distance amidst the clouds.

I was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment!

Why are we doing parkour like crazy down here while that guy cruises around and enjoys the scenery up there?!

Is this even human?!

Just as Bing Tianxiao was about to end this "boring" mountain climbing race—

A sudden change has occurred!

Rumble—!

A terrifyingly hot and suffocating aura instantly erupted from the stone platform at the top of the mountain!

"Hmm? This temperature..."

On the back of the ice dragon, Bing Tianxiao's smile suddenly froze.

A strong sense of crisis instantly exploded on my scalp.

"Luo Li, watch out!"

Before he could react further...

The clouds below suddenly shattered and turned crimson.

boom--!

A massive, hundred-foot-long pillar of crimson magma roared up like an angry dragon emerging from the sea!

A giant hand emerged from the pillar of fire!

In an instant, he slapped down on the ice dragon in the air!

BOOM—!!

The ice dragon shattered instantly into countless crystalline ice shards under this palm strike!

The black-winged demonic ape was completely melted!

"Holy crap! Playing this high?!"

Bing Tianxiao reacted extremely quickly, the moment the ice dragon shattered.

He grabbed Luo Li's slender waist, his toes lightly touching the broken ice, and retreated like lightning.

Although the two were a bit disheveled, they still managed to land steadily on the rocky platform.

"Cough cough..."

Bing Tianxiao waved away the dust in front of him, but his expression became more solemn than ever before.

"This aura... it's at least at the late stage of the Transformation Realm, or even the Heavenly Transcending Realm!"

Bing Tianxiao cursed inwardly.

Logically speaking, the trials in the Northern Cang Realm should at most be at the peak of the Fusion Realm or the initial stage of the Transformation Realm.

How could a monster of this level suddenly appear?

This isn't a test, this is a death sentence!

Just then, several whooshing sounds rang out in succession.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Mu Chen, Mu Kui, Bing Qing, and Hao Renjia finally escaped the horde of beasts below.

They rushed onto the huge rocky platform in a disheveled state.

They were all covered in dust and their breathing was still a little disordered, clearly indicating that their frantic run had not been easy.

However, before they could even catch their breath, they were stunned by the terrifying crimson pillar of fire before them and the terrifying pressure that filled the entire area.

"What...what the hell is this?!"

Mu Kui's eyes widened as he felt the heat wave rushing towards him, and his throat went dry.

"Late stage of the Transformation Realm... or even stronger!"

"Has the Northern Realm gone mad? Releasing such a monster?"

Hao Renjia also had a bitter expression on his face.

They thought they could just rush up and grab the flag, but it turns out they've come to their deaths?

In mid-air above the stone platform, nearly a dozen enormous magma hands appeared.

These massive magma hands were relentlessly slamming down on the Heavenly Rank spirit beasts that had come to surround and kill them.

At this moment, a terrified scream erupted, and they retreated in a sorry state.

Some who retreated slowly were directly crushed into ashes by the giant hand of lava.

"Get out of here!"

Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all used their movement techniques to dodge.

Rumble!

"...Oh right, the Spirit Flag!"

Bing Tianxiao's eyes lit up, then he suddenly slapped his forehead:

"Damn it! How could I forget that! We're here to capture the flag, not to level up in a game! Why are we wasting our time fighting this guy?!"

He abruptly stopped in mid-air, turned around, and shouted at Luo Li:

"Luo Li! Let's charge straight in and grab the flag!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Li's cool eyes instantly locked onto the flag, and she headed straight for the stone platform!

"Walk!"

Bing Tianxiao was not to be outdone. Ice lotuses bloomed beneath his feet, and his speed instantly soared to the limit, closely following behind!

"Oh no! They're trying to steal the flag!"

Mu Chen and the others reacted instantly.

Although the lava monster was terrifying, it was clearly just a gatekeeper; its real target was the flag!

Whoever gets the flag is number one!

"boom!"

Just as everyone was preparing to grit their teeth and charge toward the flag.

The lava monster seemed to sense their intentions and let out a deafening roar.
