Douluo Continent: The Ruler of Time, Reigning Supreme

Chapter 113 Ice Emperor
Hyotei and his allies would never stand idly by while outsiders besiege Snow Empress in the far north.

As the ruler of the far north, it would be a pipe dream for the Snow Emperor to try to ambush and kill her in the far north.

By harnessing the power of the far north, she can instantly summon all the soul beasts of the far north to come and help her.

Faced with hundreds of thousands of extreme northern spirit beasts, even the most powerful titled Douluo could be overwhelmed and killed.

At that point, it wouldn't be a question of whether she could break through, but rather that she would leave none of these audacious invaders who had blasphemed the peace of the far north alive, forever in this cold graveyard.

The Snow Empress's chilling killing intent, as sharp as ancient ice, was no longer merely a psychological oppression, but resonated with the far northern ice plains she had ruled for nearly seven hundred thousand years.

Centered on that solitary snow-capped peak, an invisible wave of chill spread rapidly like ripples on water, instantly sweeping across the vast far north.

The clouds in the sky seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand, beginning to gather and swirl wildly. The already howling wind and snow intensified suddenly, transforming into a giant white python connecting heaven and earth, emitting a deafening roar.

The fine ice crystals no longer drifted down, but were swept away by the gale like billions of arrows, causing the temperature to plummet even further on top of the already extremely low levels, as if even the soul could be frozen.

At this moment, the weather of the entire far north became utterly violent due to the wrath of its sovereign.

Almost at the same instant of this celestial phenomenon.

In another forbidden area in the far north, in a territory composed of countless exquisite and translucent ice crystal corals and eternally green ice, countless ice scorpions looked up at the sky.

This is the territory of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan, one of the overlords of the far north.

Deep within the territory, at the base of an inconspicuous cliff covered by millennia-old ice and snow, lies a huge cave entrance.

The interior of the cave is not a man-made, ornate structure, but rather filled with the raw, rugged power of ice and snow.

Countless enormous ice shards hang upside down like a forest, and the cold air is like mist. This is a treasure land naturally formed by the purest ice energy—the dwelling place of the Ice Jade Scorpion Clan Chief, one of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, and the Ice Emperor.

Deep within the cave, a soul beast lay quietly atop the coldest piece of ice.

It is about 1.5 meters long, and its body has two completely different colors that blend perfectly.

One is a pristine white, like an ancient glacier, while the other is a vibrant, deep, and icy emerald green.

Its body has four layers of segments stacked at the front, with the head at the very front and its mouthparts gleaming with a silvery-white metallic luster.

Its forebody and six sharp, long legs were covered with perfect hexagonal protrusions, like countless tiny diamonds inlaid on them, reflecting a brilliant and hard luster under the faint icy light flowing in the cave.

What is most striking are its pair of one-meter-long front pincers, which are also covered with diamond-like hexagonal protrusions. Only the frontmost pincers are smooth like a mirror and are awe-inspiringly silvery-white.

Its eyes are yellow and have a distinctive hexagonal shape.

Unlike the long, segmented tails of ordinary scorpions, its tail has only five segments, each a uniform emerald green, becoming increasingly sharp towards the tail. At the end of the last segment, the stinger, which also shimmers with diamond-like light and has a silvery-white mirror-like tip, is unconsciously and gently tapping the ice surface, exuding a deadly aura.

She is one of the rulers of this far north, second only to the Snow Emperor, the Ice Emperor.

At that moment, its hexagonal yellow eyes suddenly opened, flashing with a very human-like surprise and an instant burst of anger.

"Xue'er...why are you so angry?"

A cold, uniquely magnetic female voice echoed directly through the cave.

"Who is it? Who dares to provoke her to the point of triggering celestial phenomena in the very core of the far north?!"

She had been with the Snow Emperor for hundreds of thousands of years, and they were so familiar with each other's auras that they were like their own. She clearly sensed that the source of the raging blizzard in the far north was the Snow Emperor's undisguised killing intent.

This was no ordinary struggle; it was a fight that truly touched the Snow Emperor's sore spot, provoking signs of his wrath.

"Om-!"

Without the slightest hesitation, a strong emerald green light suddenly erupted from Hyotei's diamond-like body.

"boom--!"

A powerful force erupted from her petite yet terrifyingly powerful body, causing the entire cave to tremble.

Instead of flying, she used all six legs to exert force.

"Crack!"

The ancient ice beneath her shattered instantly, and her figure transformed into a bolt of lightning interwoven with emerald green and shimmering white, directly smashing through the thick ice and snow covering the cave entrance and plunging into the raging blizzard outside, which had become even more violent due to the Snow Emperor's wrath.

The Ice Emperor's true form was like a green arrow released from a bow, tearing through the gale and shattering ice shards. In the most primal, violent, and befitting its status as a soul beast, it sped toward the core area where the Snow Emperor's aura was erupting.

Its compound eyes reflected the swirling snow, leaving only a chilling killing intent.

The Snow Emperor's terrifying killing intent, which stirred up celestial phenomena, was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake. Its ripples were not only keenly captured by the Ice Emperor, but also quickly spread to other corners of the vast far north, alarming the other two powerful beings.

In the far north, on a vast wasteland composed of countless giant ice pillars and permafrost, dwells another dominant race of the far north—the Titan Snow Demons.

At this moment, in the center of this territory, dozens of figures, as large as moving hills, are either sitting or lying down.

They are generally over twenty meters tall, with some reaching fifty meters.

However, among these giants, there was one figure, towering like a mountain peak rising abruptly from an ice field.

His height is a staggering 100 meters.

Its entire body was covered in long, snow-white fur, and its muscles were bulging, exuding explosive power.

His head was enormous, his face rugged, and his eyes were like two lanterns burning with eerie blue flames.

Just standing there, it exudes a suffocating, wild aura.

He is none other than Titan Snow Demon King, one of the Three Kings of the Far North, a terrifying being known as "Atai".

Just as the Snow Emperor's killing intent swept over, these dozens of Titan Snow Demons, including the hundred-meter giant, simultaneously raised their enormous heads and looked towards the direction of the snow peak.

That tremor, originating from the level of life and the very essence of the soul, made even these giants, renowned for their strength, feel a chill in their hearts.

Titan Snow Demon King Atai's huge brows furrowed tightly, his deep blue eyes filled with shock and confusion.

"That killing intent... Xue Di..."

His deep voice, like rolling thunder, echoed across the wasteland.

"Who angered the Snow Emperor? How dare they!"
