Douluo Continent: The Cataclysm of the Dead - Huo Yuhao

Under such circumstances, becoming the overlord of the far north would naturally require completing the transfer of power, and even gradually helping the remaining two overlords, the Icefield Bear King and the Titan Snow Demon King, by giving them a portion of the Ten-Thousand-Year Mystic Ice to enhance their strength.

And that is also the other party's responsibility.

As Xue Di's solo dance gradually came to an end, the vast scene, or rather, the entire world, trembled at that moment.

Previously, the core area of ​​this far north was an endless world of ice and snow, with no signs of life in sight.

But at this very moment, within the range of his mental detection, he clearly saw at least tens of thousands of soul beasts converging in this direction.

These spirit beasts came in all shapes and sizes, including flying spirit beasts rarely seen in the far north. There were ice bears that Huo Yuhao had seen before, as well as many others that he had never seen before.

Every soul beast was in high spirits, rushing towards this place at its fastest speed.

Gradually, the soul beasts in the distance formed a circle, a circle with a diameter of two thousand meters. The thickness of this circle increased, and the number of soul beasts also increased.

However, the biggest difference this time is that Hyotei did not appear directly. After all, Hyotei has already transformed into a guardian spirit, so no matter how much power he releases or how strong he becomes, it is relatively meaningless.

Because this time, Xue Di is about to accomplish something extremely important.

The intersection of power and authority, even if Hyotei were to appear, would only be at its peak, causing some fear among the remaining members, and perhaps even bringing some unnecessary trouble.

The vast majority of spirit beasts on the far northern ice plains are white. If you don't look closely, you might even mistake them for snow piled up on small hills. Only a few exceptionally large spirit beasts are truly conspicuous.

Soon, a huge ice bear appeared.

Its enormous body was like a small mountain. Even when it moved on all fours, it was over fifteen meters tall. Its massive body was covered in thick fur, the white fur shimmering with a faint silver sheen.

The other party was none other than Little White, the hidden overlord of the far north.

It possesses over 200,000 years of cultivation as a ferocious beast, making it a terrifying existence in the far north.

At this moment, Little White seemed to be enjoying being stroked by Snow Emperor, occasionally letting out soft moans. Its huge, snow-white bear buttocks wiggled from time to time, looking incredibly blissful.

It doesn't look like a hegemon at all.

In Huo Yuhao's view, it didn't seem like a bear at all, but rather more like a Samoyed that was extremely obsequious and always seemed to be smiling.

Indeed, at this moment, in Huo Yuhao's eyes, he really felt that the other party did not resemble a hegemon at all, but only a small beast, or rather, a dog...

And with a deafening roar, another great overlord of the far north finally appeared.

That height must be at least 120 meters.

In terms of height, it is almost second only to the top three on the list of ferocious beasts.

Titan Snow Demon King trotted over to Snow Emperor and sat down cross-legged next to Ice Bear. The two giants, Titan Snow Demon King and Ice Bear King, were so enormous that Huo Yuhao immediately felt as if another hill had appeared in front of him.

The two seemed to be vying for the Snow Empress's favor, while maintaining a certain distance between them. This was precisely what Huo Yuhao was paying attention to, or rather, the area below the center.

Under the Snow Empress's powerful attack, neither of the two ferocious beasts noticed the presence of humans in the area.

"Everyone, it's been a long time. Since you're here, I'll get straight to the point and say something important."

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, the soul beasts on the entire plain of the far north seemed to fall into a state of collective bloodlust, roaring excitedly until the Snow Emperor made a gesture and they calmed down again.

Xue Di said, "In recent years, I have been in seclusion, striving to break through the next bottleneck. As you all know, I am not young anymore, and I have lived in this world for far too long. Whether it is me, Di Tian, ​​or Xie Yan, we are all approaching the end. The future world will belong to you."

"My far north is a pure land. For me, the most satisfying thing in my life is the peace of the far north. There are two main reasons for gathering everyone here today. First, I want to announce to you that after this meeting, I will enter another level of seclusion, and I do not know what the final outcome will be. I bid you farewell here. It is very likely that this will be the last time I see you all. Second, I want to determine my successor."

The moment the words left her lips, the entire Arctic Ice Plains seemed to tremble violently. It's important to understand that the Snow Empress's rise to absolute dominance in the Arctic was largely due to the bloodline inheritance of the Ice and Snow Maiden and her own strength. But if the Snow Empress were to leave, could the Arctic Ice Plains truly still be called the Arctic Ice Plains?

Fortunately, the scene returned to calm after Xue Di only released a slight amount of power.

“And my successor is none other than Atai.”

As the Snow Empress finished speaking, the entire Arctic Ice Plains seemed to fall into a momentary silence. Even many soul beasts couldn't help but look over with disbelief. The Titan Snow Demon King himself was equally shocked. However, a hint of melancholy flashed in the eyes of the Ice Plains Bear King, Little White.

In the eyes of many soul beasts, if anyone were to say that they had the best chance of inheriting the throne of this ice field, or that the Snow Empress was going to choose a successor, they would subconsciously look at the Ice Field Bear King, Xiaobai. After all, the relationship between Xiaobai and the Snow Empress was not a secret, and even to the powerful soul beasts of the far north. They all thought that Xiaobai would be the successor. Unexpectedly, the final successor was only the Titan Snow Demon King.

Chapter 233 Arrangements for the Far North Ice Plains

After a brief moment of shock, a fleeting excitement crossed the face of the Titan Snow Demon King.

However, as if he quickly realized something, a moment of hesitation flashed across his face. He first used his Micro-Vision to demonstrate his power to the soul beasts of the far north ice plains again, while looking at the snowfield. He was too conflicted, and after a long while, he tentatively asked a question.

"Snow Emperor, um..."

Although Titan Snow Demon King believed that he seemed to have indeed seized the so-called throne of successor in the competition with this little white one, he quickly calmed down and thought of one person—the Ice Emperor.

Although the Titan Snow Demon King also believed that his own strength was not bad, if it were a true comparison, apart from the Snow Emperor, the Ice Emperor was the absolute king of this ice field.

However, the Ice Emperor seems to have been missing for several years. This is not a new thing for soul beasts, but if it is really about inheriting a position, in theory, even if the Snow Emperor is going into seclusion.

This position should all be given to Hyotei, after all, Hyotei possesses the power of ultimate ice, enhanced by the Arctic ice plains.

said with no exaggeration.

Even ferocious beasts that are over 400,000 years old might not be able to get any advantage from Hyotei here.

In other words, someone like Xuanzi, who hasn't reached the Limit Douluo level, would absolutely not gain any advantage here. Even though Titan Snow Demon King also believed his strength was considerable.

Even with the advantage of the arena's power, he was at most equivalent to level 97.

Even against ordinary level 98 powerhouses, they would be at a disadvantage. And against those who had even reached the Limit Douluo level, such as Xuanzi, even with the help of the arena's power, they would only end up being suppressed.

Therefore, whether for the sake of the entire far north or for the prosperity of the far north, temporarily giving this position to the Ice Emperor to take over is the best choice in the opinion of Titan Snow Demon King, and also the most reasonable choice in the opinion of the soul beasts of the entire far north ice plain.

As for Xue Di, she seemed to have seen through Titan Snow Demon King's doubts. At this moment, Xue Di did not hide anything and spoke frankly and openly.

"Hyotei felt that bottleneck earlier and also chose to break through it."

Hearing this, Titan Snow Demon King understood, but a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. Countless soul beasts of the far north ice plains couldn't help but roar and riot at this moment. You must know that if it were just Snow Emperor alone, this would not be a big deal, but if the two ice and snow emperors attacked at the same time, the worst possible outcome would be inevitable.

The strength of the entire far north will be greatly reduced.

If humans forcibly break in at that time...

The fact that the far north doesn't even have the ability to fight back is questionable.

And they seemed to have sensed this unease.

As Xue Di chuckled softly, the suppressed aura within her was no longer concealed.

In an instant, the soul beasts of the entire far north were met with a near-riotous killing intent.

Because Xue Di casually raised the necklace in her hand, and it gradually rose up.

And those were none other than a dozen pieces of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing marrow.

For the soul beasts of the entire far north, the allure of the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow is almost undeniable. If it weren't for the Snow Empress standing there...

Even the Titan Snow Demon King would probably feel a longing in his eyes, and quite a few bold ones would dare to go up and try.

There's no way around it; that's the allure of the Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow to ordinary ice-attribute soul beasts. It's not just about a fundamental upgrade; it might even allow the ice power they control to reach a higher level with the help of the Myriad-Year Profound Ice Marrow.

After a flash of envy and longing across the faces of Icefield Snow Queen Little White and Titan Snow Demon King,

Countless ferocious beasts from the far north seemed to have gained some enlightenment in their silence.

They now understood why the two great rulers of the far north had suddenly chosen to go into seclusion together.

If they find so much Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow, then the danger of their seclusion is almost zero.

The Snow Emperor alone took out more than a dozen pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow; there are likely even more that she didn't take out, which she had prepared for her seclusion.

This gave them confidence in the Snow Empress's attack; after all, no matter how difficult the challenge, with the blessing of such a divine object...

They firmly believe that nothing unexpected will happen to Xue Di this time.

And then? The Snow Empress subtly moved her hand, and three pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow, shimmering with a deep blue power, landed before the Titan Snow Demon King. A flicker of desire flashed in the Titan Snow Demon King's eyes, but he forcefully suppressed it, looking at the Snow Empress with a hint of worry, and tentatively spoke…

"Snow Empress, is that enough for your impact?"

For Titan Snow Demon King, he knew very well that these three pieces of ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow would make his breakthrough to the three ten-thousand-year-old barrier almost risk-free, and he even had one foot already in the door.

However, for the entire far north, the safety, or rather the very existence, of the Snow Emperor is of utmost importance.

Upon seeing this, Xue Di chuckled softly and spoke in a low voice.

"Don't worry about me, Atai."

Seeing that even the Snow Emperor had spoken, the Titan Snow Demon King finally accepted the three pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow.

After that, with a flick of her wrist, the Snow Empress placed two more pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow in front of the Titan Snow Demon King. This caused confusion to flash in Atai's eyes, and the Snow Empress softly explained.

"If we encounter some younger generations who are confident in reaching 200,000 years, we will bring it out later."

Upon hearing this, the Titan Snow Demon King, though momentarily puzzled, respectfully accepted the two pieces of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. The Snow Emperor, seemingly reverting to her former domineering state of ice and snow, gazed upon the entire far north and spoke in a deep voice.

"When I emerge from seclusion, my strength will undoubtedly surge. During this time, the Titan Snow Demon King will be the absolute ruler of this icy plain, and you must respect him as you would me!"

"Roar!"

Countless soul beasts roared with excitement, their faces filled with fervor as they looked at the Snow Empress. After all, if the Snow Empress had already shared so much Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, she must have kept a lot for herself as well. Under such circumstances, once she broke through, the strength of the Far North Ice Plains would only increase further.

After all, that was a breakthrough for both of the Ice and Snow Emperors.

"My people, go ahead, I have some things to tell you."

Hearing her command, the soul beasts of the far north ice plains rose and slowly dispersed. However, even as they left, they kept turning back, looking at their former lord of the far north ice plains with fervent adoration.

Because they knew very well that once the Snow Emperor finished her seclusion, the strength of the Arctic Ice Plains would experience another surge.

As for Titan Snow Demon King's respect for Atai, it certainly exists. However, this is only temporary, since they are well aware that Snow Empress's ability to produce this item and distribute it publicly demonstrates her complete confidence in that challenge.

What about Atai? He didn't say anything sentimental. Judging from the extent of Xue Di's intervention, the possibility of her failing this breakthrough was almost nonexistent. All he had to do was help her temporarily manage this ice field.

As the ferocious beasts departed, the resentment towards Atai on the face of the Icefield Bear King, Xiaobai, gradually dissipated. After all, even he, in his naiveté, could see that the Snow Empress's willingness to distribute this item indicated that she already possessed the confidence to break through even higher barriers.

The reason he felt no envy or longing was simple: he knew that given Xue Di's attitude towards him, she would never mistreat him. As for how much she would give him, that would have to wait until after the beasts had retreated.

Sure enough, after the other ferocious beasts of the far north ice plains disappeared, the Snow Empress couldn't help but look at Little White, the Icefield Bear King. And where was the Icefield Bear King?

Although a hint of longing flashed in her eyes, she couldn't help but look at Xue Di and ask for confirmation with a worried tone.

"Snow Empress, are you sure you won't be in danger?"

Looking at the Icefield Bear King Xiaobai, the Snow Empress's gaze softened, and she nodded gently.

"Of course, but I'm choosing a different path. I might come back to find you again later. For now, take these and, like Atai, prepare to break through to the 300,000-year mark."

As he spoke, the four strands of Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Profound Ice Marrow landed in front of the Icefield Bear King, Little White. Little White, with a look of longing in his eyes, stretched out his paw, intending to swallow them directly.

"And then?" Looking at the snow-covered ground before him, he suppressed his longing and casually put the snow away. Then, he couldn't help but chuckle and ask excitedly.

"I knew it, Mom is the best to me."
