The Titan Snow Demon raised its head in terror at the sound. Four humans stood on the iceberg. An old man spoke calmly, exuding a relaxed yet experienced aura.
Another person stood on the iceberg, a peerless young man who maintained his composure despite the extreme temperatures. The snow seemed to dance for him.
Towering above the young man's head were two formidable beings, their terrifying pressure causing the Titan Snow Demon King to tremble and its legs to buckle.
"Snow… Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor! Why have you returned!"
"If we didn't return, would we let you continue to harm my ice and snow spirits? Ah Tai, how did you become so irritable?"
The Snow Emperor said coldly.
The Ice Emperor chimed in, "Are you planning to target our Ice Bip Scorpion clan next?"
Hearing this, the Titan Snow Demon King was already covered in cold sweat. It couldn't handle the wrath of either the Snow Emperor or the Ice Emperor, let alone both of them together.
"I wouldn't dare! I'm just feeling the loss of Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor. I'm worried that some malicious Soul Beasts might come and cause trouble, so I came to guard your remains and prevent any damage!"
The Titan Snow Demon King chuckled.
"I think the most malicious one here is you."
Ice Emperor didn't have a good attitude towards the Titan Snow Demon King, not even as good as she had towards Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
Ice Emperor's pressure directly unleashed, bearing down on the Titan Snow Demon King. "There's only one choice before you."
"Ice Emperor, don't scare it."
Snow Emperor said calmly, "Ah Tai, do you want to stay with us forever?"
"Yes, of course I do! I'd die for it!"
The Titan Snow Demon King nodded repeatedly upon hearing the Snow Emperor's faint voice and the words that could easily be misinterpreted. "Snow Emperor, you are truly beautiful!"
It had always believed the Snow Emperor was the most beautiful and alluring creature in the world.
However, the moment it truly saw Su Qingfeng, the Titan Snow Demon King's perception changed. It realized there was an existence with an even better temperament and higher颜值.
Unfortunately, it was male! Can't ORZ_
"Since you want to die, then go die."
The Ice Emperor said coldly, making the Titan Snow Demon King freeze.
"Tianmeng, the Titan Snow Demon King has already been found for you. How to make it the second Martial Soul of this kid is your business."
Tianmeng emerged from Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness, condensing a mental illusion, and said with a "hehe".
"Thank you, Snow Emperor, and Ice Emperor."
"Titan Snow Demon King, do you remember me?"
Sky Dream turned to look at the Titan Snow Demon King.
The Titan Snow Demon King snorted, "So it's you, the lucky big worm. You've also become a Soul Master's soul ring? And just an ordinary Soul Master at that. Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor have good eyes, finding a good host."
"You... You, stop talking nonsense. Now, the three highest-cultivated Soul Beasts in the Extreme North have all followed Soul Masters. Do you think you can escape?"
"What do you mean?"
Sky Dream's spiritual body flew around the Titan Snow Demon King, saying softly:
"I know your Titan Snow Demon clan is simple-minded and strong-limbed; you might not understand what this means. I'll just say it directly, being a Soul Beast has no future. Only by following a Soul Master with high talent can you create legendary glory. This is also the reason why Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor, and I chose to sacrifice ourselves to humans."
"Titan Snow Demon King, think carefully. You've already experienced one Heavenly Tribulation and will soon face the second, in just a few hundred years. Although you Titan Snow Demons are descendants blessed by the ancient Ice God who left behind the Titan Giants, with a powerful physique, do you have the confidence to survive the second Heavenly Tribulation?"
"Even if you miraculously survive the second Heavenly Tribulation, there might still be a third, a fourth… Each time is a near-death experience. Can you guarantee that you'll survive every single one?"
The Titan Snow Demon King fell silent at this point.
Su Qingfeng stood on the iceberg, listening. He wanted to award Sky Dream the titles of [Douluo's Best Death-Counseling Beast] and [Most Diligent Milk Worm].
Master of Debate!
Su Qingfeng knew about the Heavenly Tribulation. It was a taboo set by the gods against Soul Beasts, designed to prevent them from becoming too powerful, to stop them from cultivating into Divine Beasts. Therefore, every time a Soul Beast reached a hundred thousand years of cultivation, they had to face a Heavenly Tribulation. If they endured, their strength increased; if they failed, they would be annihilated.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, countless Soul Beasts had died from the Heavenly Tribulation.
If the Heavenly Tribulation didn't exist, there would likely be ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts everywhere, hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts wouldn't be rare, and even the overall strength of the Soul Masters would have reached a new level.
Since the Heavenly Tribulation was more detrimental than beneficial to the development of the Douluo Continent, why did the gods still do it?
There was only one answer: It was to benefit the gods' rule!
And the current Divine Realm was under the control of the God King Tang San.
This is also the true reason why Su Qingfeng said that the Douluo Continent was his Tang family's backyard.
The flowers and animals in the backyard grow slowly. Once they cross the fence of the garden, they will be discovered. The God King can eliminate anyone he wants!
Having already experienced the terror of the Heavenly Tribulation once, the Titan Snow Demon King was indeed shaken when he heard that he would have to experience it again.
Sky Dream continued to increase the pressure, saying, "I know that the Star Lord is our best choice, but the Star Lord already has the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor. They have already made the Star Lord invincible in the attribute of extreme ice. Not to mention that you don't have the chance to sacrifice yourself to the Star Lord anymore, even if you could, you would only be icing on the cake, which is not important to the Star Lord."
"But Huo Yuhao is different. He was born poor, and his first Martial Soul is a mental-type Martial Soul. The path he will take in the future is only support or control. If you become Yuhao's second Martial Soul, it will be a huge improvement for him, and he can have the positioning of a powerful attack type. If the two of us work together, this little guy has a 50% chance of becoming a god. At that time, we will also benefit, that is eternal life, and we don't have to worry about the Heavenly Tribulation anymore."
"Moreover, Yuhao is determined to stay by the Star Lord's side, and the Star Lord will have a 90% probability of becoming a god in the future, and Yuhao will not be bad either. As his most powerful Martial Soul, you will be the number one contributor at that time."
Sky Dream spoke at length.
The Ice Emperor's face was full of black lines after listening: What's the meaning of this? Another 50% chance of becoming a god? It was 50% with me, and it's still 50% with the Titan Snow Demon King? Am I no different from this big, dumb, and clumsy guy???
"If I don't agree, what will happen?" The Titan Snow Demon King looked around at everyone.
Sky Dream's expression tightened, his words laced with threat: "Behind me are the two great kings of the Extreme North, and also a human super expert. What do you think?"
"Alright, even the Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor, who are stronger than me, are willing to give up their bodies and become human wisdom soul rings, so how can I, the Titan Snow Demon King, fall behind?"
"Bug, don't you dare lie to me, or I will still seek revenge, even in a soul state!"
With that, the Titan Snow Demon King unleashed a powerful pressure and energy, linking with Huo Yuhao.
Sky Dream's eyes lit up: Good, good, good. In a mental state, you think you can beat me? I'm a mental-type soul beast!
Mu En's old face also revealed a look of satisfaction. "Excellent. This little fellow from the outer court has a promising future. Nurture him well, and he will certainly be able to help you in the future. Qingfeng, what do you think?"
Su Qingfeng said faintly, "I hope so."
