"There's a reason this place became a forbidden zone of Douluo Continent. One wrong step, and there'll be no turning back."
"I understand, Brother Sky Dream." Huo Yuhao grew serious as well.
At the same time, the Soul Devouring Spider explained the reason to Huo Yuxi. The siblings gradually slowed their pace.
There were quite a few spiritual-attribute Soul Beasts here. The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, rarely awake, focused on releasing its spiritual power to help them avoid danger.
The farther down they went, the deeper the snow became. Every step Huo Yuxi took was exhausting.
As Huo Yuhao walked, he could not help feeling puzzled. They said the Far North was incomparably dangerous, yet they had already ventured deep into its core without encountering anything amiss.
Then, in the next instant, he received the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's panicked warning and swiftly pulled Huo Yuxi behind a boulder to crouch down.
Immediately afterward, a terrifying aura swept over them. Both of them sensed the immense threat within it. It felt as though the pressure radiating from that being alone could crush them to pieces.
The tremors in the ground made it clear that the approaching creature was enormous. Snow cascaded down from the mountain, but the rocks shielded them somewhat, and they were not injured.
Still, they were only twelve-year-old children. Facing such a powerful, murderous Soul Beast for the first time, their palms were slick with sweat.
Don't be afraid. This is one of the Far North Three Great Heavenly Kings, the third-ranked Titan Snow Demon King.
Huo Yuxi looked down at it in shock, unable to understand how those two sentences could possibly go together. They had encountered one of the Far North Three Great Heavenly Kings—how could she not be afraid?
Relax. It won't hurt you,
