When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

The next day.

In the far north, deep within the snowy wilderness, lies a hidden realm.

The cold wind was like a series of sharp knives, howling through the swirling snow.

The temperature here has dropped to a terrifying freezing point; if you spit out a mouthful of saliva, it will turn into ice shards before it even hits the ground.

"roar!!!"

A giant bear covered in ice crystal armor roared furiously at the crowd in front of it.

Fifth-tier, seven-star exotic beast!

The overlord of this snowfield—the Glacier Bear King!

"Bang!"

It swung its bear paw and smashed it down, turning a man in black who tried to approach into a bloody pulp, just like smashing a watermelon.

Hot blood splattered onto the snow and instantly froze into dark red ice.

In a short time, more than a dozen members of the Purple Scorpion Sect who were sent to test the waters were all killed or wounded in front of this overlord.

Meanwhile, on an ice rock dozens of meters away from the battlefield.

The Grand Elder of the Purple Scorpion Sect, known as the "Scorpion Demon," stood against the wind.

Watching his men being slaughtered unilaterally, his face remained completely expressionless, as if the dead were nothing more than a group of insignificant ants.

"Third brother, get ready to make your move."

The Scorpion Demon drew a dagger from his sleeve.

This dagger was half a foot longer than an ordinary short blade, and its entire body was a strange purple color. The edge of the blade faintly glowed with a poisonous light, clearly indicating that it was coated with a deadly poison that would kill upon contact with blood.

He stared at the bear king in the distance and coldly shouted, "We finally managed to lure this beast out of its den; we absolutely cannot let it retreat back in!"

Standing beside him, Xue Tu frowned and asked hesitantly, "Big brother, it might be difficult for the two of us to fight a fifth-tier, seventh-star beast head-on. Why don't we wait for second brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother to arrive before we attack together?"

"I can't wait."

"The Soul-Tethering Jade Tablet indicates that the three of them are approaching us and should reunite soon."

"Let's go first, while this beast has exhausted its strength, and severely injure it!"

"good!"

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Blood Butcher's eyes.

The two figures simultaneously transformed into afterimages, charging fearlessly towards the Ice Bear King against the wind and snow.

"You beast, prepare to die!"

The Scorpion Demon formed hand seals, and a purplish-black, foul wind erupted from its body.

Supernatural Power - [Netherworld Poisonous Scorpion Sting] activated!

He flashed through the air in an arc, the poisoned blade in his hand transforming into several sharp, cold beams that pierced towards the Bear King's face.

However, this bear king had already developed intelligence.

Instead of dodging, it let out a roar, and its ice-attribute spiritual energy erupted instantly, condensing into a layer of extremely cold ice armor several inches thick on its body.

"Jingle bells!"

The poisoned blade struck the ice armor, exploding into a shower of sparks, leaving only faint white marks.

"roar!"

The Bear King withstood the attack, its paws creating a violent, pungent gust of wind that crashed down on the Scorpion Demon like a mountain.

Scorpion Demon's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly circulated his true energy and retreated like a venomous scorpion, but he was still grazed by the palm wind, and his blood and qi surged in his chest.

Just as the Scorpion Demon was being suppressed by the Bear King.

A blood-red afterimage silently skimmed along the snow and disappeared into the ice cave behind the Bear King.

Just a dozen or so breaths later.

"Roar...roar..."

Accompanied by two childish screams, Blood Butcher's figure reappeared at the cave entrance.

He was holding two newborn, snow-white bear cubs in his hands!

"Big brother! Retreat!"

Blood Butcher roared at the Scorpion Demon who was fighting fiercely.

Then, in front of the Ice Bear King, he curled a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth and suddenly exerted force with both hands.

"Pfft!"

The heads of the two bear cubs were crushed, and blood mixed with brain matter dripped onto the snow from his fingers.

"Stupid bear!"

"You must die here today!"

He even provocatively hurled the remains of the bear cub at the bear king.

"roar!!!!"

Upon seeing this, the Glacier Bear King's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, becoming as red as a madman!

The pain of losing its offspring caused this overlord to completely lose its mind.

"Boom boom boom!"

The bear king frantically pounded the ground, and countless ice spikes as thick as buckets suddenly pierced out from the ground, as if the entire snowfield had been engulfed in an earthquake.

Mythical Beast Soul Skill!

【Mystic Ice Thorn】

"Now!"

The scorpion demon's eyes gleamed brightly. It didn't make contact with the raging bear king at all, but used its agility to constantly weave and dodge through the wind and snow.

Half an hour later.

The wind and snow continued, but the roar of the Ice Bear King gradually weakened.

Its body was covered with countless wounds, and it was panting heavily, its strength almost completely exhausted from its frantic outburst.

"The opportunity has arrived!"

A look of madness flashed in Blood Butcher's eyes.

He bit his tongue hard, burning all the remaining true energy in his body, and unleashed his strongest divine power—[Blood Shadow Deadly Strike]!

"Whoosh!"

Blood Butcher's figure vanished instantly, leaving only a thin, barely perceptible blood-red line in the air.

next second.

"laugh!"

A sickeningly sharp, tearing sound rang out.

Blood Slaughter appeared after the Bear King.

The main artery in the bear king's neck was cut open, leaving a terrifying blood groove three feet long!

"puff!!!"

Scalding hot blood gushed out like a high-pressure water gun, instantly staining the snow-covered sky red.

Seeing this, the scorpion demon, who was not far away, narrowed his long eyes slightly, a deep sense of fear flashing in them.

"The third brother's assassination skills are becoming more and more terrifying."

"The speed at which it exploded was so fast that even I didn't see it clearly..."

"If we let him continue like this, in time, I'm afraid even I won't be able to hold onto my position as the Grand Elder."

A murderous intent flashed through his mind, but his hands moved swiftly.

"Die!"

The Scorpion Demon roared and activated its divine power as well.

Behind him, a purplish-black scorpion phantom suddenly appeared in the void.

"Sizzle!"

The scorpion's tail, gleaming with an eerie light, plunged fiercely into the bear king's bleeding neck wound, twisting violently!

"Snap!"

With a deafening crash of bones shattering, the bear king's head, as large as a small mountain, shot skyward!

A fifth-tier, seven-star overlord has fallen!

"Huff... huff..."

After the battle, Scorpion Demon and Blood Butcher were panting heavily, blood seeping from their numerous wounds.

Even if they were to be worn down by killing a powerful overlord, they still paid a considerable price.

The Scorpion Demon took out a jade bottle from his pocket, poured out a few Qi-Nourishing Pills and swallowed them. His pale face regained some color.

He stood up and glanced at Blood Butcher beside him.

"Third brother, you stay outside and keep watch while you heal your wounds."

"I'll also pick up the second brother and the others while I'm at it. I'll go into the cave first and see what treasure this beast is guarding."

"Yes, brother."

Although Blood Butcher also harbored greed, he was now exhausted of his true energy and dared not disobey orders, so he could only obediently stay outside.
