Douluo Continent: We agreed on a simulation, but they've come to life?

"Since you've chosen the ice attribute... why not seek out the Snow Empress?" Lu Cheng chuckled.

"Snow Emperor... Snow Emperor, are you crazy?!" The snow-white giant worm looked at the boy with a shocked and bewildered expression. It thought that setting its sights on the Ice Emperor was already shocking enough, but who would have thought that this kid's ambition was so great that even it was trembling.

That was one of the three Heavenly Kings of the far north, with over 700,000 years of cultivation, and ranked among the top three of the Ten Ferocious Beasts.

A single stomp of the foot could cause an earthquake throughout the entire world of soul beasts.

How is that possible?!

"How will we know if we don't try?" Lu Cheng's eyes were leisurely, but he was calculating the time in his heart.

In the original story, the Snow Empress took human form and was captured by a mysterious ninth-level Soul Master from the Sun Moon Empire who happened to wander into the core area of ​​the far north using the Conferred God Platform. If the timeline is normal, about half a year later, he would be able to see the Snow Empress, who had become an embryo, at the Star Luo Imperial Capital Auction, the main arena of the Soul Master Academy across the continent.

And the timing was just so coincidental.

According to his current timeline...

In the original story, Huo Gua went to the far north, and the timeline of the Ice Emperor's sacrifice was slightly later. In other words, he might actually encounter the Snow Emperor in her transformed state.

"It's just a try, after all, what if?" Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"Who knows, maybe that legendary ferocious beast has just transformed into a human and was harmed by a villain. Then I come to her aid, and she is so moved that she wants to repay me with her body? You never know."

Tianmeng: "..."

Speechless: "But your imagination is certainly rich."

"Hyotei isn't necessarily a bad option," Lu Cheng said thoughtfully.

The Snow Empress's strength is beyond doubt. If she were to become a Martial Soul, her aptitude would naturally surpass that of the Ice Empress. However, at present, he does not yet have the right to be picky.

Moreover, if we want to save Xue Di, we have to do it as soon as possible. When Xue Di is auctioned off by the Sun Moon Empire, the price will be astronomical. Since we have decided to leave Shrek Academy, it seems that it is really difficult to come up with more than 100 million gold soul coins.

"You've even picked one." Tianmeng, unaware of Lu Cheng's thoughts, pouted.

"Alright, let's go, to the far north!"

Lu Cheng waved his hand.

One man and one insect headed straight north.

He was quite a free man. Although he was a second-year disciple of Shrek Academy's outer court, he was not bound by any constraints. His class teacher turned a blind eye to him. For such a prodigy, he was basically an inner court trainee who came to the outer court to gain experience. There was no need to interfere too much and make trouble for himself. Therefore, he lived a carefree life.

……

Dragon City.

As the most prosperous and culturally rich city among the border cities of the Heavenly Soul Empire in the far north, bar none, it is home to the two colossal Heavenly Dragon Gate and Earthly Dragon Gate.

Looking at the lush, snow-covered city, Lu Cheng's eyes were filled with curiosity.

"I just don't know where the Earth Dragon Gate is."

The underground treasure vault beneath it is also a must-see spot. There's no way around it, since it's a ten-thousand-year-old ice cave, and the amount of ten-thousand-year-old ice marrow it contains is enough to support the Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor through the next heavenly tribulation without any doubt.

Its accompanying crystal, the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, is the material used to create the first battle armor, the Ice Extreme War God Armor. It is the world's top-grade ice attribute crystal, bar none.

"Never mind, let's get down to business first..."

Lu Cheng hesitated for a moment, then gave up the idea of ​​visiting the Earth Dragon Gate. With his strength, it was impossible for them to give up the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, and he couldn't possibly invoke the name of Shrek Academy...

……

The far north.

On the vast, white snow-covered land.

A figure that seemed out of place was walking forward step by step through the thick snow.

In the extreme cold of nearly 100 degrees Celsius below zero, no creature could escape except for soul beasts with ice and snow attributes within them, let alone a handsome young man dressed in only thin clothes.

The wind was biting cold, but it didn't affect him at all as it blew over his body.

In a sense, he possesses the most yang constitution, unafraid of wind, cold, or frost.

"We're almost at the heart of the far north," Tianmeng said, popping her head out and looking around with a solemn expression in her small eyes.

"How did you distinguish them?" Lu Cheng exhaled a puff of white mist, full of surprise.

"Temperature," Tianmeng said proudly, a grin spreading across her face.

"So the lower the temperature, the closer to the core area?" Lu Cheng asked with great interest as he gazed at the endless white snowfield.

"That's how it should be in theory, but even in the core area, it doesn't reach absolute zero, it's around minus two hundred degrees Celsius. Brother Tianmeng was fortunate enough to go in once."

"Tianmeng, use your spiritual detection abilities, the farther the better. I need to find traces of the Snow Emperor..."

Lu Cheng's gaze gradually turned solemn.

In fact, this trip to the far north is still somewhat risky. If the Snow Empress is captured by humans first, the Ice Empress's emotions will inevitably go out of control. The scene of a surprise attack like in the original story will probably be hard to replicate. And a ferocious beast at its peak of 390,000 years old going out of control...

The consequences were predictable.

He needs to confirm whether Xue Di has been captured before making any further plans.

"it is good……"

Although somewhat confused, Tianmeng still chose to do as instructed.

A colossal phantom of a giant silkworm, nearly a hundred meters long, emerged from the sky. At the same time, a vast and boundless spiritual power silently seeped into the ground, spreading out in all directions as discreetly as possible, with Lu Cheng's body as the core.

"..."

A few minutes later.

Tianmeng opened her eyes, her gaze both surprised and strange.

"The Snow Emperor... is still here, but its condition is clearly not right."

"What do you mean?" Lu Cheng's pupils suddenly contracted. He hadn't expected to actually encounter the Snow Empress in human form.

"See for yourself..."

Tianmeng's eyes were complicated. She shared her consciousness with Lu Cheng. In the next instant, Lu Cheng seemed to detach his consciousness from this body and suddenly rose from the ground to the sky above the far north, taking in the view of the area within hundreds of miles.

And at the coordinates locked by Tianmeng.

A cloud of snow-white mist surged, and within it, one could vaguely see a humanoid figure that had materialized, ferociously and angrily attacking an old man with white hair. The old man dodged repeatedly, but his eyes gleamed with extreme excitement, and he held a huge and complex soul tool in his hand, which emitted a bright light.

If it were the Snow Empress at her peak, without a doubt, she could easily crush this intruder with a single blow.

But now... the transformation period is the most vulnerable period for a soul beast. Its former peak combat power is less than one-tenth of what it used to be, not to mention that it has just experienced a heavenly tribulation.

Interrupted by that human again, her temper deflated like a punctured balloon, her momentum waning with each passing second.

Anyone with eyes could see that the white-haired old man opposite him had a steady demeanor and a sharp glint in his eyes. He was not incapable of defeating Xue Di; he was just waiting for the right moment to strike.

Once the flaw is discovered, the consequences for the Snow Emperor will be...

Chapter 99 The Mysterious Level 9 Soul Master

"Let's go." Tianmeng shook her head, her eyes filled with regret.

"By your human standards, that guy over there is at least a Title Douluo level existence, not someone we two can handle. However, it's a bit surprising that the ruler of the far north would choose the path of human transformation. And I really didn't expect your mouth to be so... vicious."

Now, the only option is to withdraw.

After all, even if the two of them risked their lives to save Xue Di, they would still have to face a maddened beast, which would be a losing proposition.

“Run? Heh…” Lu Cheng’s lips curled up, his eyes filled with excitement.

"I need to save people!"

"You're insane!" Tianmeng exclaimed in bewilderment. "This is the far north. Even if we defeat that human, we still need to control the almost insane Snow Empress. Even if you manage to do all that, if you want to take the Snow Empress out of the far north, you'll still have to get past the Ice Empress, and even Atai! If the Snow Empress's aura is leaked even slightly, we'll both die without a burial place!"

"Moreover... a crazed soul beast filled with hatred for humans. With your cultivation level, trying to absorb her is tantamount to digging your own grave."

Tianmeng's face was full of resistance.

"Digging up a few hundred-year-old or thousand-year-old snow lotuses can nourish them."

"I've even given up hope on Hyotei."

"Trust me, Brother Tianmeng, go all in!" Lu Cheng chuckled. "Any slower and it'll be too late!"

After saying that, a fiery wing behind him trembled violently, stirring up waves of snow around him. Then it transformed into a dazzling crimson streak of light and rose up from the ground, heading towards the Snow Emperor's location.

Tianmeng: "..."

……

"Damn humans, I'd rather die than let you succeed!"

The Snow Emperor roared in anger, nearly self-destructing.

She coldly scrutinized the white-haired human elder opposite her, who was still strolling leisurely. If she weren't currently in her transformation phase, which was her weakest period, she could crush this opportunistic ant into bloody pulp with a single finger.

but now……

Her aura grew increasingly weak, and she was unable to break free from this guy's entanglement. Meanwhile, Hyotei and the others were too far away to provide timely support...

The next instant, the white-haired old man's eyes flickered, and the cover he was holding suddenly slammed down on her. At the same time, an indescribable loneliness and suffocation descended upon her. She felt as if the flow around her had slowed down, and the figure of the white-haired old man outside the transparent cover became increasingly blurry.

She angrily slammed her fist against the transparent glass, only to discover to her despair that some unknown material had been used inside, which exerted a considerable degree of restraint and weakening on her soul state, leaving her feeling utterly powerless.

Is it... over just like that?

The mighty Snow Empress is actually being captured and humiliated by humans?

"..."

But in the next instant...

A deafening roar erupted in my ears.

The glass dome she was in shattered completely, exposing the sophisticated machinery beneath it to everyone's view. Xue Di looked to the other side in astonishment and confusion.

A handsome human youth was holding a crimson bow, which exuded an indescribable aura, while his other hand was slowly lowering.

The body was still radiating the residual heat of a terrifying flame.

Clearly, he saved him...

wrong!

Xue Di narrowed her eyes slightly. There wasn't a single good human being. She suspected that the reason they rescued her was just to try and take her away.
