Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 73 The Heaven-Defying Soul Beast and Rewards
Golden light swirled above the sky.

After the announcement of the Sea Queen, "Demon Emperor".

Instead, a completely different atmosphere began to emerge.

An extreme chill, seemingly capable of freezing time and space and bringing all things to silence, swept across the entire continent like a tidal wave.

All the onlookers involuntarily shivered, as if their souls were about to be frozen by this pure, icy coldness.

"Boom boom boom!"

Golden light converged, and a stunningly beautiful and solitary projection slowly emerged.

It was the phantom of a woman dressed in an ice-blue dress, with a perfect face as if sculpted from ice and snow.

Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were a pure, icy blue, without a trace of impurity, as if they contained eternal, unmelting ice.

Simply standing still in the air, it exudes an absolute majesty that commands the extreme cold and reigns supreme over all living beings, as if it were the master of ice and snow itself.

Her beauty was breathtaking, yet her extreme coldness and majesty made one dare not harbor the slightest thought of desecration.

[Sixth on the Soul Beast Power Ranking: Snow Empress (Ice and Snow Maiden)!]

[Soul Beast Age: Approximately 670,000 years]

[Origin: The far north]

[Evaluation: The leader of the three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, the supreme ice-attribute soul beast in the world, the only Ice and Snow Maiden soul beast, controlling absolute zero, freezing thousands of miles, its strength is invincible in the Far North.]

[Rewards: Soul Beast's age increased by 70,000 years! Extreme Ice purity and control greatly enhanced! Skill "Snow Emperor's Three Absolute Techniques" power doubled! Demigod-level battle skill: Ice Calamity Annihilation]

"Six hundred and seventy thousand years! The ultimate ice supreme!"

"The Snow Empress! Is she the true ruler of the far north?"

"So beautiful...but also...so cold..."

"Sixth place! A soul beast that's nearly 700,000 years old is only ranked sixth?"

The mainland was once again shocked.

The appearance of the Snow Empress captivated countless people with her unparalleled beauty and supreme majesty.

The terrifying cultivation level of "670,000 years" and the heaven-defying reward made all Soul Masters, especially the peak Douluo, feel a deep tremor in their souls.

……

The far north.

As Xue Di gazed up at her own projection on the sky, a subtle hint of relief finally appeared on her icy face.

She had been suppressing her cultivation because she was not confident that she could survive the 700,000-year tribulation.

Now, the Sky Curtain Reward not only saved her from a life-or-death crisis, but also greatly enhanced her strength!
A golden beam of light pierced through the wind and snow, enveloping the entire body.

She could clearly sense that the lifespan of the soul beast had instantly broken through the bottleneck, reaching 740,000 years.

The ultimate ice energy within his body became increasingly pure and condensed, as if he had touched the very origin of the laws of ice.

Their mastery of skills has reached a whole new level; with a mere thought, they can freeze a thousand miles of land.

Most importantly, there was no heavenly tribulation!
The heavy pressure that had been weighing on my mind suddenly dissipated.

Even with Xue Di's composure, she couldn't help but feel grateful and joyful at this moment.

Congratulations, Snow Empress!

Hyotei, who was standing to the side, felt the increasingly deep and terrifying chill emanating from Yuki-tei and offered his heartfelt congratulations, his azure scorpion tail swaying lightly.

The Snow Empress nodded slightly, a sharp glint flashing in her icy blue eyes: "With this power, no one will dare to violate the majesty of the far north."

She was not dissatisfied with her sixth-place ranking.

After all, there are five more unfathomable beings ahead.

What she's more curious about now is: what exactly are the top five monsters?

……

Starry Sky Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life.

"Snow Emperor, 670,000 years, the ultimate ice..."

Zi Ji's dragon shadow rippled slightly, her tone solemn, "Her strength is probably no less than that of Xiong Jun. Now that she has been rewarded and exempted from the heavenly tribulation, and has broken through more than 700,000 years, the far north will be even more difficult to conquer."

Xiong Jun let out a low growl.

Although it did not speak, its restrained aura indicated that it agreed with this judgment.

The absolute zero of the ultimate ice is so great that even its dark gold claws are greatly restrained.

The red king's central head spewed forth solemn flames.

“In the far north, there is her and that scorpion; in the sea, there are the Deep Sea Demon Whale and the Sea Princess. Although our Star Dou Great Forest has its master in charge, he cannot take action. The top combat power on the surface does not have an absolute advantage.” Di Tian’s golden dragon eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, “The Snow Empress is indeed a worthy opponent, but she is only ranked sixth. The best is yet to come.”

……

Beidou Academy.

Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at the Snow Emperor's exquisite and aloof projection, feeling the extreme chill and majesty emanating from the screen. A trace of longing and awe flashed in her clear eyes.

"A soul beast nearly 700,000 years old... Such a terrifying existence is hidden in the far north."

She murmured to herself.

The slight slack that had arisen due to the rapid increase in strength vanished instantly.

Compared to these ancient beings that have survived for hundreds of thousands of years, she still has a long way to go.

Ning Rongrong covered her mouth in amazement: "So beautiful, so powerful... So this is what the ruler of the far north is like. Dean, will we have a chance to visit the far north someday?"

Lu Xiao lay back in his chair and replied lazily, "Want to go? Let's talk about it when you can withstand the cold there."

"When the Snow Empress's 'Emperor's Frost Heaven' domain is fully activated, even a Title Douluo would be turned into an ice sculpture if he entered."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were also deeply moved.

Ye Lingling could especially sense the pure, extreme "ice" attribute on Xue Di, which contrasted sharply with her "life" attribute.
-
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan, the Clear Sky Sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and other forces had completely lost the courage to discuss the matter.

Another supreme soul beast, nearly 700,000 years old, has emerged in the far north.

The dangerous places on the mainland are more terrifying than the last.

Their sole purpose was to discipline their disciples: never to set foot in these forbidden areas.

The entire Douluo Continent.

The extreme cold and incredible rewards brought by the Snow Emperor have repeatedly refreshed our understanding of "power".

The power and antiquity of spirit beasts far surpass the accumulation of human spirit masters over thousands of years.

Top five!
Only the top five remain!
Amidst extreme awe and anticipation, the mainland held its breath, awaiting the unveiling of the final peak.

Each of these top five individuals likely possesses terrifying power capable of overturning the current state of affairs on the continent.

……

Before the chill brought by the Snow Emperor could completely dissipate, the golden light in the sky underwent another strange change.

"Boom boom boom!"

An extremely sinister, chaotic, and terrifying mental fluctuation, seemingly capable of distorting reality and eroding the soul, swept out like an invisible tide.

This spiritual power is completely different from the vast and ethereal power of the Sea Princess and the eerie and troublesome power of the Demon King.

It is filled with violence, destruction, and a cold will that looks down on all living beings.

The golden light twisted and wriggled, eventually coalescing into a chilling projection.

It was an enormous eye!

Its diameter is as large as a mountain, and its entire body is a strange color that is a mixture of dark red and dark black. Its pupils are a bottomless chaotic vortex, as if they can devour all light and soul.

Countless thick, dark red nerve bundles, as thick as octopus tentacles, danced wildly around his eyes.

Just looking into his eyes is enough to drive the weak-willed to madness!
[Soul Beast Power Ranking, Fifth Place: Evil Emperor (Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord)!]

[Soul Beast Age: Approximately 750,000 years]

[Affiliation: Sun and Moon Continent (Demon Forest)]

[Evaluation: The supreme ruler of the Evil Eye Tyrant clan, possessing ultimate mental attributes. His mental power combines terrifying destructive force with bizarre control, making him an absolute overlord on the mental level.]

[Rewards: Soul Beast's age increased by 75,000 years! Mental destructive attribute greatly enhanced! Range and power of the talent domain "Mental Chaos Storm" increased! Semi-divine artifact: Chain of God]

"Seven hundred and fifty thousand years! Evil Eye Tyrant?"

"What...what kind of monster is this! Those eyes are terrifying!"

"Such terrifying mental power? And it's destructive? How terrifying would that be?"

"Fifth place! A soul beast nearly 800,000 years old!"

"Wait...wait! Place of origin...Sun and Moon Continent? What kind of place is the Sun and Moon Continent?!"

The situation on the mainland has once again caused an uproar.

But this time, the uproar was filled with even more confusion and disbelief!
The Evil Emperor's terrifying and bizarre appearance, along with his nearly 800,000 years of cultivation, was already frightening enough.

But what astonished everyone—including the leaders of the major powers—was the previously unheard-of territory.

Sun and Moon Continent!

A completely unfamiliar place!
