Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 280 Seeking one's own death!

The far north!

A beam of ice-blue light pierced through the heavens and earth, and a magnificent and vast divine pressure enveloped the entire far north. The perpetual snow and wind stopped in an instant, and the dark sky became bright. At this moment, the dark clouds were dispersed, but there was no golden sunlight, only the ice-blue divine light shining everywhere!

But neither the Soul Masters nor the Soul Beasts dared to make a sound!

The vast far north is utterly silent!

Soul beasts less than ten thousand years old have little intelligence; they only feel their breathing become sluggish, and the fear from the bottom of their hearts forces them to crawl on the ground!

The same applies to soul beasts that are over 10,000 years old. In fact, because they are stronger, the pressure they feel is even more terrifying, like a mountain. Many soul beasts that are fighting stop, tremble, kneel down, and shrink into a ball!

Only soul beasts that are over 50,000 years old can look directly at that icy blue beam of light!

The same applies to Soul Masters. No matter how arrogant a Soul Master is, once they set foot in the far north, they seem to lose their soul.

"The divinity of the Ice Goddess!?" The Titan Snow Demon King, who had been lying on the glacier, was startled by this aura. He excitedly stood up, and seeing the icy blue beam of light, his eyes lit up with joy. He disregarded his clan behind him and ran towards the beam, laughing wildly, "Hahaha! The Snow Empress succeeded!"

At the same time, in the core area, a giant scorpion, more than a meter tall, was also heading towards Han Feng and Xue Di.

That scorpion, isn't it the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion?!

Not only the Ice Emperor and the Titan Snow Demon King, but also several other forces rose into the sky from the deeper parts of the far north. Their powerful resentment and malevolence even dissipated some of the divine influence!

Each of these auras represents at least 80,000 years of cultivation!

If the far north can nurture a peerless ferocious beast like the Snow Emperor with a cultivation of 600,000 years, how could it only have three soul beasts with a cultivation of over 100,000 years?

"If any of you dare approach, I will kill you!"

But before these auras could even emerge, the Snow Emperor's cold, murderous voice resounded throughout the entire far north!

Now, in this far north, the only person who is not suppressed by the Ice God's divinity is the Snow Emperor!

The majesty of six hundred thousand years was unleashed without reservation, and combined with the divinity of the Ice God, it directly dispersed the ferocious aura deep in the far north!

One after another, angry and resentful roars came from the depths, but were suppressed by a cold snort from the Snow Emperor.

Not only the restless and ferocious soul beasts deep in the far north, but even Titan Snow Demon King and Ice Emperor paused, staring wide-eyed in Snow Emperor's direction—Snow Emperor's voice just now was also directed at them!

Titan Xue Moang and Ice Emperor were shaken, not only because the Snow Emperor had not harbored any murderous intent for thousands of years, but also because of her current state!

They both knew that the Snow Empress was searching for the Ice God's inheritance, so the moment they sensed the Ice God's divine fluctuations, they assumed that the Snow Empress had succeeded. Therefore, they couldn't wait to congratulate her. This was also to guard against any villains plotting against the Snow Empress, such as the commotion that had just come from the depths of the far north.

In their view, the Snow Empress should be receiving the inheritance of the Ice God right now!

But now, there was no trace of divinity in the Snow Empress's voice, and the icy blue pillar of light seemed to have nothing to do with her!

The Snow Empress seemed to be protecting that beam of light!

This made Ice Emperor and Titan Snow Demon King feel uneasy and puzzled, yet they dared not approach easily!

The Snow Emperor's killing intent was real!

After much hesitation, Ice Emperor and Titan Snow Demon King ultimately decided not to challenge Snow Emperor's bottom line, remaining rooted to the spot with uncertain expressions.

At this moment, Han Feng's Ice God inheritance had entered the right track. His expression was ethereal and aloof, and his jet-black hair had turned into ice blue, as bright as moonlight. Diamond-like ice shards floated all over his body, and a snowflake-like mark appeared on the back of Han Feng's left hand. His True Ice Martial Soul was also stained with a layer of divine luster. Although it could not compare to the Snow Emperor's Ultimate Ice, it was far more noble than the Ultimate Ice!

As Xue Di watched Han Feng's gradual transformation, a complex expression appeared in her eyes.

Snow Empress, however, did not see that when the snowflake mark appeared on Han Feng's left hand, a red lotus mark flashed and disappeared on Han Feng's right hand, as if in pleasure!

"Old ghost! Although His Holiness the Pope has given the order, don't act rashly if things are beyond your control!"

"I know!"

Just as Han Feng reached the most crucial moment in receiving the Ice God's inheritance, a soft and a somber voice rang out from outside the far north. Two beams of light, one bright yellow and one pitch black, streaked across the sky above the far north like shooting stars. It was Yue Guan and Gui Mei who had arrived!

As soon as they stepped into the territory of the far north, Yue Guan and Gui Mei felt a terrifying pressure as deep as an abyss and as deep as a prison, forcing them to land on the ground!

Snow Empress naturally noticed the arrival of Yue Guan and the Ghost. Her brow furrowed, and her voice, piercing through the endless ice plains and glaciers, reached precisely into their ears: "Humans! Leave this place immediately!"

Xue Di's voice was extremely penetrating, and it was also wrapped with the power of extreme ice. Yue Guan and Gui Mei were unable to react in time, and their eardrums were directly pierced, with large gushes of blood flowing out of their ears!

"Hmph!" Yue Guan and Gui Mei groaned in pain, their faces turning pale!

"What a powerful soul beast!" Yue Guan murmured solemnly.

Because Xue Di addressed Yue Guan and Gui Mei as "humans," a term only used by soul beasts, Yue Guan naturally assumed Xue Di was a soul beast even though he didn't sense any soul beast aura in her voice!

"Your Majesty the King of the Glacier..." After struggling for a while, Yue Guan ultimately did not choose to leave—although this unknown 100,000-year-old soul beast was very strong, it must have accumulated a lot of prestige in Yue Guan and Gui Mei's hearts over time. In Yue Guan and Gui Mei's hearts, Bibi Dong was far more terrifying than the 100,000-year-old soul beast!

As for why he's called the King of Glaciers...

In fact, Yue Guan didn't know who the owner of this voice was, but soul beasts with cultivation levels exceeding 100,000 years would be given the title of king, just like the Titan Giant Ape was called the King of the Forest. This voice came from the depths of the glacier, so it was naturally the King of the Glacier.

However, Xue Di did not want to negotiate with Yue Guan too much. The inheritance of the Ice God had reached the most critical moment, and there could be no carelessness or disturbance!

"Hmph!" The Snow Emperor snorted coldly, and a deep blue longsword made of ice crystals pierced through the air!

"What!?" Upon seeing this, both Gui Mei and Yue Guan's eyes bulged out in surprise!

"Old ghost! It's the Ice and Snow Emperor!" Yue Guan recognized the origin of the long sword and screamed with rapid breathing. The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum flew out of his hand and rose into the air, radiating a dazzling light like a great sun!

The ghostly figure reacted quickly, and a bewitching and sinister black shadow appeared behind him, with countless ghostly figures rushing toward the Emperor Sword as if going to their death!

Xue Di did not use her full strength; otherwise, this sword strike would have at least killed one of Yue Guan and Gui Mei!

But now, the Snow Empress not only has to protect Han Feng, but also guard against the demons and monsters deep in the far north. In addition, Han Feng's inheritance has reached its most critical moment, and the Snow Empress does not want to cause any unforeseen complications, so she did not kill them all.

Even so, Yue Guan and Gui Mei still exerted all their strength to barely withstand this sword strike!

Yue Guan and Gui Mei, still breathless and exhausted from what seemed like a near-death experience, were about to say something when they heard Xue Di's domineering voice rang out again: "Take another half step, and don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Normally, the Snow Empress would not kill human powerhouses indiscriminately. After all, she deeply understood that humans were an extremely terrifying race. If she really angered them, they would swarm her, and even with her 600,000 years of cultivation, she would not be able to withstand the siege of dozens of Title Douluos. Especially after learning about the gods, this fear reached its peak!

But things are different now. She is the High Priestess of the Ice God. Why should she be afraid in order to protect the future Ice God?

If Yue Guan and Gui Mei truly don't know what's good for them, Xue Di could kill them to vent her anger!

Yue Guan and Gui Mei felt a chill in their hearts. They knew that Xue Di was definitely not joking. Even if that killing intent was thousands of miles away, it was still as sharp as a sword!

But Yue Guan and Gui Mei were unwilling to leave like this!

I won't be able to explain this to my colleagues when I get back!

"Respected Ice and Snow Emperor! My brother and I have come for the sake of the gods, so I suppose..." Yue Guan's eyes darted around, and he quickly said, thinking himself clever.

Before Yue Guan could finish speaking, the ice and snow suddenly turned violent, the cold wind that had been suppressed by divinity howled again, and a chilling voice interrupted Yue Guan: "Seeking your own death! To covet the gods is an unforgivable crime! Die!"
