Douluo Continent: My strongest soul beast was exposed by the Heavenly Curtain?

Chapter 26 The Darling of Ice and Snow! Heaven and earth tremble before her! (Please continue reading)

Outside the Snow Empress's Lonely Castle, the Ice Empress, having witnessed all the rewards, was skipping and jumping like a happy little girl.

Those golden vertical pupils, which were originally as cold and aloof as a frozen pool, were now shining with an astonishing brightness, as if they contained an entire starry sky, making no attempt to hide their inner excitement.

"That's great, sister, now you don't have to be afraid anymore."

She practically rushed to Xue Di's side, her voice filled with undisguised joy.

"Being spared from a million-year calamity is such a wonderful surprise!"

The Hyotei Emperor paced back and forth excitedly, leaving a trail of shallow footprints on the snowfield with his small figure, showing none of the majesty one would expect from the ruler of the far north.

But strangely enough, not a single soul beast dared to mock her.

Because they all knew that Hyotei's loss of composure at this moment stemmed from one fact: she no longer had to watch helplessly as her sister stood on the edge of life and death.

With a joyful expression, Hyotei was overjoyed, even happier than Yuki-tei at that moment.

This is probably a classic example of a sister-complex.

And it was at this moment that Xue Di, who had maintained absolute composure, finally showed a clear sign of interest for the first time.

She stood at the highest point of the Ice Crystal Castle, overlooking the entire far northern snowfield, her long, silvery-white hair fluttering gently in the cold wind.

A rare, complex emotion surfaced in those eyes, which were like a deep, icy pool.

I feel relieved.

I have some feelings about it.

There was also a sliver of long-lost anticipation.

"I never expected that I would be able to reach the million-year soul beast realm that my father spoke of so smoothly."

Xue Di's voice was very soft, yet it seemed to penetrate heaven and earth.

"Life really is unpredictable; the large intestine wraps the small intestine!"

This slightly abrupt remark caused many powerful individuals observing through the celestial canopy to pause in surprise.

Clearly, this vocabulary does not entirely match their impression of the lofty and unapproachable Queen of the Far North.

Having been taught by Li Yannian, Xue Di naturally knew a lot of additional vocabulary.

And now, almost subconsciously, she found this most fitting description from the depths of her memory.

And it was at the very moment those words were spoken that heaven and earth responded to her.

boom-!

An unimaginably powerful soul force erupted from Xue Di's body.

The snow-white soul power, like a materialized flame, surged and swirled around her, and every brick of the Ice Crystal Castle emitted a low hum under this power.

Snow Empress's body slowly floated up.

Like an ice goddess, standing in mid-air.

At the same time, the scene in the sky suddenly changed.

The scene of Xue Di's advancement was projected completely and clearly over the entire Douluo Continent.

Whether in the far north, the Star Dou Great Forest, or the seas at the southern tip of the continent, all people and all soul beasts raised their heads at the same time.

They saw it, the magnificent castle built from countless ice crystals.

Bathed in sunlight, the castle resembles the heart of an ice and snow kingdom, reflecting a dazzling and mesmerizing light.

At the top of the castle, the Snow Emperor, dressed in white, emanated a surge of soul power, creating a wondrous resonance between herself, the castle, and the heavens and earth.

It was as if it wasn't a building at all.

Rather, it is an extension of her will.

Under the watchful eyes of thousands, the Snow Empress's soul power began to surge wildly.

Nine hundred and fifty thousand years.

Nine hundred and seventy thousand years.

990,000 years —

With almost no pause, the soul power surged like a bursting dam, instantly breaking through the boundary that had stood for countless years!

Millions of years!

Rumble!!!

The sky suddenly changed color the instant the soul power broke through.

The once clear and cloudless sky was instantly covered by thick, mountain-like dark clouds.

Thunder roared in the sea of ​​clouds, as if the heavens had opened their angry eyes.

The sound could be heard for miles around.

All those watching through the celestial canopy held their breath at that moment.

They know.

A calamity that lasts for a million years has arrived.

"My God, is this the calamity that occurs every million years?"

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, Xiong Jun's eyes widened, and for the first time, genuine fear appeared on his rugged face.

"Just looking at Old Bear gives me the chills that seep into my bones!"

The terrifying aura of thunder, even through the sky, made his heart tremble.

This time, Wanmu did not mock Xiong Jun.

Because his own situation wasn't much better.

As a soul beast, Wanmu understood better than anyone what a million-year heavenly tribulation meant.

But when this legendary divine punishment actually appeared before his eyes, he realized that books and rumors could not even begin to describe it.

This is the celestial calamity that occurs every million years —

[This is at least ten times more terrifying than the tribulation I faced over five hundred thousand years.]

Wanmu's heart tightened slightly.

If it were me, I probably wouldn't have lasted even a second.

The thought had barely crossed his mind when he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What followed was an even stronger sense of envy.

"If only I, with my ten thousand eyes, could have a chance to escape the tribulation that lasts for a million years."

This sigh came from the bottom of my heart.

Upon hearing this, Xiong Jun burst into laughter.

"You little brat, you've finally met your match?"

"You can't get something just by envying it."

He straightened his back, patted his chest, and said, "I'm different. I, Old Bear, am not envious at all; I'm just happy!"

"Our soul beast race has finally gained another pillar of strength!"

At this point, Xiong Jun didn't forget to look at Di Tian.

"You're right, aren't you, Di Tian? I learned this from the Master!"

Di Tian nodded slightly.

This nod immediately perked Xiong Jun up.

He mimicked Li Yannian's tone and began to "lecture" Wan Mu in a serious manner.

"Look at you! You never pay attention in class!"

"What you say, sir, is truly invaluable advice!"

Wanmu remained silent, his face cold, offering no rebuttal.

Because he knew better than anyone else how much Li Yannian meant to the soul beast clan.

That was the true guide.

While the soul beasts were still discussing, the terrifying thunderclouds that had covered three hundred miles above the Snow Emperor's head quietly began to dissipate.

The thunder had not yet subsided.

Heaven's punishment has not yet arrived.

It was as if some invisible, mighty force had directly erased this catastrophe that was capable of destroying the world.

In the blink of an eye, the sun was shining brightly.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

Everyone was stunned.

Clearly, the million-year celestial calamity has been completely dispelled by the power of the celestial canopy.

Next comes the true moment of transformation for Xue Di.

Bloodline evolution.

The laws are elevated.

For this elf born in the far north, amidst wind and snow, this was a step destined for her.

The moment the celestial calamity dissipated, a profound and ancient power quietly merged into the Snow Emperor's body.

Her skin became even whiter, almost glowing with a faint icy sheen.

Her temperament has become increasingly aloof and noble, like a beautiful woman in the moonlight, making people dare not look directly at her.

Even those with so-called "cold, fair skin" pale in comparison to her.

What's most striking is what's on her forehead.

A rune imbued with the will of Heaven silently appeared.

It is unassuming, yet awe-inspiring.

That was heaven and earth's recognition of her.

It is also the mark of a king.

At this moment, everyone clearly felt that the Snow Empress's aura had completely changed.

If, before, she was merely frightening.

So now, her very existence is enough to make people give up the idea of ​​fighting.

To subdue the enemy without fighting.

The ultimate secrets of a king are revealed in full at this moment.

Snow Emperor calmed his mind and began to focus on mastering the laws of ice and snow.

Having always coexisted with ice and snow, she faced almost no obstacles with the help of the power of the sky.

The threads of the laws unfolded slowly before her eyes.

Every breath is a sublimation.

Finally, in a silent moment.

She has completely mastered the laws of ice and snow.

In an instant.

The earth and sky shook.

The endless wind and snow seemed to come alive, emitting a low and joyful howl.

The entire far northern snowfield was cheering for her.

The snowflakes, dancing in the air, swirled and leaped around her like dancers.

This moment.

Snow Emperor truly became the king of the far north.

Not just on the ground.

It's even higher than heaven and earth.

All things, ice and snow, submit to her.

Everyone who witnessed this scene could clearly feel the power of heaven and earth emanating from her.

Especially those supreme experts like Qian Daoliu and Di Tian.

Their senses are the most acute.

That is precisely why the shock in my heart was the most intense.

Outside the Grand Hall of the Spirit Hall headquarters.

Qian Daoliu slowly withdrew his gaze.

At that moment, the last shred of pride in his heart was shattered.

Because he clearly sensed from Xue Di that he was destined to die.

If you become her enemy.

There is no doubt that he will die.

"The entire far north is weighed down on one person."

"Such power—"

Qian Daoliu dared not think about it anymore.

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong has already made a decision.

"The Snow Empress has been designated as the highest taboo of the Spirit Hall."

"No one is permitted to set foot in the far north and provoke such beings!"

She abruptly changed the subject, her tone suddenly becoming sharp.

"Also, form a hunting squad as soon as possible."

"We must kill that Demon-Eyed Tree King as soon as possible!"

The order has been issued.

Meanwhile, on the high seas far from the mainland, a happy little whale was already getting restless.
