Several gold soul coins lay in the boy's slender palm, reflecting a dazzling golden light in the sunlight. A greedy glint flashed in the squad leader's eyes. He chuckled and said, "You're smart enough to go in." The squad leader opened his hands, his heart already bursting with joy.

Three gold soul coins are enough for an ordinary family to use for a year. This time, each of them received one gold soul coin, which is quite a lot. You should know that they only receive three silver soul coins a month from the empire's military pay!

Watching the greedy hand in front of her desperately demanding ill-gotten gains, Shen Yumo smiled inwardly. There was nothing wrong with the guards doing this. After all, a large number of people still dared not confront an empire, so they simply turned a blind eye to such things. It was the other party's ability to get money, but whether or not to give it was up to me.

A faint, charming smile appeared on her lips as she slowly placed the golden soul coin in her palm into the other person's hand. At the same time, a powerful surge of soul power gradually rose from her body. Just as the golden soul coin was about to fall, Shen Yumo's body instantly left a blur, and in the blink of an eye, she landed on the other side of the obstacle, which was the far north.

At the same time, a gleaming golden soul coin fell into the other party's palm.

The squad leader felt a chill before his eyes and a heavy weight in his hand. Greed drove his gaze toward the gold soul coin.

It was a shock when I looked: the original large number of gold soul coins had turned into a single one!

The squad leader rubbed his eyes, confirming once again that he only had a single gold soul coin in his hand!

Before they could even react in shock, a pleasant young voice suddenly rang out behind them.

"Guards, I'm off now! I'll definitely do it all next time! Bye-bye!"

"Oh dear, why are you still chasing me? Stop chasing me, I don't need you to take me home, I can go back by myself, don't be so polite. Oh, Mom, you uncles are so kind, thank you so much."

……

"Little... brat, don't run away!!"

A panting guard rubbed his lower back; clearly, he had a bad back…

At this moment, their leader, the squad leader, spoke up.

"Stop chasing! This boy is extraordinary. You definitely can't beat him if you catch up." The clever squad leader only then realized that the boy was different. Judging from his age, he wasn't very old, and his soul power wasn't that high either. Yet, they had chased this boy for three whole streets without him even blushing. But these one-ring soul masters couldn't take it anymore, and even the two-ring great soul master squad leader couldn't keep up.

……

"Tsk tsk, I've saved a lot of money on paisley this time. I'm so happy! Sister Bing will definitely praise me for being thrifty." Shen Yumo shouted happily, since there was no one around.

But more than anything, I felt joy. As I got closer to home, the feeling of a wanderer returning home grew stronger and stronger, and I couldn't help but say such silly things.

This place is known as a forbidden zone for humans, a blank area on the map, yet it is this very area that nurtured him, and he will never forget the beautiful scene of heavy snow falling here.

Similarly, there were those two incredibly beautiful women whom Shen Yumo longed for day and night. This place held too many memories for him, and he simply couldn't abandon it.

After all these years away, Shen Yumo had so much to say, and he really wanted to share it with the other person. Now that he was back, he was determined to talk it all out! He was going to be a chatterbox...

However, this is only the outermost edge of the far north, and it is still two days' journey to the core. I cannot rest. I must hurry back to the ice castle full of childhood memories and the two beautiful people in the ice castle.

The biting wind couldn't stop me. Braving the cold wind and snow, I walked step by step toward the core circle, leaving only rows of footprints on the ground.

……

One day later.

The footsteps here have been completely covered by the wind and snow, thus obscuring countless traces of human life.

Huo Yuhao quickly headed north. Although the biting wind was no longer a threat, the gradually appearing ice and snow still restricted his speed. However, the advantage of mental detection became apparent at this moment. When encountering unfamiliar terrain, he only needed to use mental detection to get started and avoid danger.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, unusually not sleeping, continuously guided Huo Yuhao to change his direction. Moreover, Huo Yuhao could vaguely sense that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to be constantly releasing a spiritual force on the surface of his body. Compared to the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's terrifying primal spiritual force, he himself was like a drop in the ocean, and he had no idea what the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was probing about the outside world.

Although he has only reached the outermost edge, he has already encountered some soul beasts. Under the guidance of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, he has never encountered anything that poses a threat to him.

The snow on the ground grew thicker and thicker. When it reached above his knees, Huo Yuhao had to cut down trees and make two planks to tie to his feet, which at least provided better support. He could even slide downhill for a short distance. It was a pretty good method, after all.

In two days, although his speed had slowed considerably, he had still ventured at least four hundred miles deeper into the far north. And the frequency with which the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was causing him to change direction was becoming increasingly rapid.

Huo Yuhao also had a heavy weight on his mind, because he knew that with Shen Yumo's strength, his martial spirit's speed, and his status as a Soul Master, he would probably have already returned by now.

Huo Yuhao shook his head with a wry smile.

At this moment, Tianmeng's unique voice suddenly came to Huo Yuhao's ears. Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, and then obediently did as he was told.

"Quickly, crawl, lie flat on the ground, bury yourself in the snow, and don't move at all. Even if anything touches your body, you can't move." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's urgent voice suddenly rang out, startling Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao quickly crouched down and lay down on the thick snow, quickly shoving the snow around him onto himself. Then he held his breath.

He had just finished taking fewer than ten breaths...

……

Chapter 108 The Devout Ape-Man

On the vast, boundless snowfield, a young man silently stepped onto the ground. The white snow covered his footprints, and the cold wind swept in with its chill, penetrating his collar. His feet sank deep into the snow, making the path incredibly difficult to traverse.

A giant figure suddenly appeared, startling the boy. He quickly lay down on the Snow Emperor. Snowflakes splashed onto his face, melting into water, but were quickly frozen by the cold wind. However, Huo Yuhao couldn't care less about that now.

Just as he finished taking less than ten breaths, Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a shiver run through his entire body. Although he was buried in the snow, his senses were still intact! Through his mental detection, he could still perceive the outside world.

He sensed an incredibly terrifying aura. The moment this aura appeared, his outward-emitting spiritual energy shattered instantly. He couldn't even detect the newcomer's physical form.

……

the other side.

boom!

Snow and dust billowed as the enormous body of the snow ape crashed onto the snowfield, scattering snowflakes everywhere. The earth seemed to have suffered a violent blow, trembling violently.

The snow ape roared to the sky, intending to struggle to its feet and continue fighting the seemingly weak human in front of it. However, it couldn't understand how a human who looked like an ant could unleash such power, which really startled the soul beast.

At that moment, a bright purplish-red light burst forth, resembling the aurora borealis in the daylight, only with a somewhat eerie color.

The purplish-red light shone into the snow ape's enormous pupils, and the snow ape froze. Its body, which had just tried to struggle to its feet, collapsed powerlessly again, making a terrifying sound like a towering tree falling. Yet, in the eyes of that human, it was utterly vulnerable.

As the light faded, a human rose into the air, like a demon god returning from hell. He was surrounded by a terrifying crimson purple light, and his blue eyes were devoid of any emotion. Four super-standard soul rings—yellow, purple, and black—suddenly lit up behind him, and soul light flashed in the surrounding space. Mysterious power distorted the uneasy space around him.

The powerful soul energy fluctuations transformed into waves of air, sweeping away snow and dust in all directions. Screams erupted throughout the vast snow forest as countless beautiful bird-like soul beasts flew away from this terrifying aura.

"Waaaaah...waaaah..."

The despair in the beast's eyes and its helpless howl before death signify its acceptance of reality and death, letting out a powerless and sorrowful howl before its demise.

A huge, scalding tear fell onto the snow beneath his body, burning a hole like a footprint.

Fragments of the Demon Blade Thousand Blades swirled beneath his feet, and violent soul power swirled around him. Shen Yumo coldly looked at the soul beast that tried to ambush him. The ten-thousand-year-old soul beast effortlessly knocked down the clumsy snow ape with its spatial soul power and the blade of the Demon Blade Thousand Blades.

For a long time, no one has dared to ambush her. This huge soul beast thought it could launch a sneak attack without being detected. Unfortunately, as it coldly stared at Shen Yumo, Shen Yumo felt the other party's huge body.

The result was the same; the opponent attacked him fiercely, its sharp claws almost tearing through the sky.

Thinking this, Shen Yumo moved her mind, and the fragments of the Thousand Blades Demon Blade beneath her feet became even sharper, slowly moving in front of the snow ape, just as her killing intent surged.

The mournful howl made Shen Yumo tremble and her pupils shrink. It was the sign of submission from all living beings, a feeling shared by all things.

In particular, the snow ape's final roar to the sky touched the last soft spot in Shen Yumo's heart.

Okay, he softened...

He slowly descended, his sharp gaze fixed on the snow ape's eyes, which were filled with tears but remained silent.

"Woo..." The snow ape let out a final howl to the sky.

A sudden pang of reluctance arose in my heart.

"Alas, in the end, you are still a soul beast. If it weren't for your killing intent and tears, I wouldn't have hurt you, much less killed you. I'll let you go today." Shen Yumo sighed and walked to the snow ape's huge head.

His palm touched the snow ape's fluffy fur.

"Ugh..." The snow ape's screams stopped abruptly, and a warm current flowed through its limbs out of nowhere, instantly dispelling the feeling of exhaustion.

The snow ape opened its enormous eyes, which swirled around in a bewildered, human-like manner, and instinctively looked at the human.

"Huh?"

When those purple beastly eyes met the boy's pure blue eyes, the giant beast froze.

This was the first time this soul beast had truly felt the kindness of humans; the resonant sound, like beautiful musical notes, enveloped the snow ape's ears.

"Hehe." Shen Yumo smiled and stopped transferring soul power. She couldn't give the other party too much soul power. She only needed to give it soul power to heal its wounds and escape. She thought that this ten-thousand-year-old soul beast should have begun to develop intelligence and should not come to hinder her anymore.

He had been traveling for about a day across the vast snowfield and was almost in the danger zone. Sure enough, as soon as he stepped into the area, a high-level, ten-thousand-year-old soul beast set its sights on him.

Fortunately, I'm even more powerful. With the strength of a Soul Master, I defeated a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beast. There are many reasons for this. For example, this Snow Ape is a typical example of strength, with explosive power. Unfortunately, it's too slow, unlike me. I'm extremely fast and have the amazing skill of spatial teleportation. I rely more on my immense strength to unleash tons of damage with the force of thunder... cough cough, I'm getting off-topic...

A howl immediately alerted Shen Yumo, who quickly retreated, her first thought being that the soul beast had repaid kindness with enmity!

But what happened next left Shen Yumo both amused and exasperated, and a warm feeling welled up inside her.

The ape-man crawled in front of her, bowing his head reverently before Shen Yumo, pointing his thick fingers at his own head, and occasionally letting out a low roar.

Shen Yumo chuckled, a beautiful smile spreading across her face. This seemed like a good idea; going directly to the core area would save a lot of soul power, haha.

With a leap, it spun 360 degrees in the air and landed on top of the ape-man's head.

"Set off!!"

The situation was much worse for Shen Yumo.

A massive Titan Snow Demon King, as large as a mountain, walked along the edge of the snowfield, trampling down a tree with each step, and continued to rampage about, completely unaware of the abnormality beneath his feet.

The immense pressure quickly dissipated, and the terrifying aura receded into the distance. Huo Yuhao, suffocating, felt a burning sensation in his chest.

But since Tianmeng Ice Silkworm remained silent, he couldn't move and could only endure it. Otherwise, he might very well face certain death.

Finally, after another ten seconds or so, the terrifying aura had completely disappeared, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm signaled that he could get up.

Huo Yuhao struggled to his feet, gasping for breath in the icy air. Although his body wasn't afraid of the cold, the chill still made him shiver. He quickly tried to slow his breathing, but his chest continued to heave violently.

……

Chapter 109 Understanding Titan Snow Demon King

The fluctuations emanating from the weak human were like those of the weakest soul beast, utterly insignificant. The Titan Snow Demon King was completely unaware of them, and as it rampaged through the snowfield, it seemed to be urgently searching for something.

Just a trace!

Although it was only a trace, the 100,000-year-old soul beast Titan Snow Demon King still sensed it. It was him, that boy!

The excited Titan Snow Demon King let out an excited hum, "The boy who disappeared for several years has returned!"

I remember playing with that weak human, and Hyotei always watching over him, making it seem like Hyotei was intent on hurting the boy.

Each time, the boy would ride on its shoulders, galloping across the vast snowfield like a wild horse. The boy was happy, and so was the boy. But soon, one day, the boy suddenly left. The boy was lost for a long time, and even today, that familiar feeling lingers. Yes, it's the boy from back then who has returned!

The overjoyed Titan Snow Demon King kept exhaling white mist from its nostrils, unaware that the boy it was thinking of had already ventured deep into the far north, while it was still wandering on the edge of the far north.

Huo Yuhao struggled to his feet, gasping for breath in the icy air. Although his body wasn't afraid of the cold, the chill still made him shiver. He quickly tried to slow his breathing, but his chest continued to heave violently.
