Stunning!

Yes, the first impression this woman gave Su Yu was sheer astonishment.

It was not as if Su Yu had never seen beautiful women before, but none could compare to the woman before him.

Aunt Bi was also a rare beauty, but compared to this woman, even she seemed considerably dimmed.

Perfect!

If Su Yu had to find one word to describe her, it would be perfect.

Only the spiritual essence of heaven and earth could have given birth to such a flawless creation.

"Uncle Tian, who are these two?"

The astonishment in Su Yu's eyes flashed away as he asked Uncle Tian beside him.

He could guess their identities, but some things could not come from his own mouth.

Under normal circumstances, he should not have known them.

"These two are Snow Empress and Ice Empress, two of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North. They are also the true rulers of all Soul Beasts in the Extreme North."

"The Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North?"

"Soul Beasts?"

Su Yu displayed just the right amount of curiosity.

"Mhm."

Uncle Tian nodded and said no more.

Su Yu turned his head and looked at the two Ice and Snow Empresses before him. The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the Ice Sky Snow Empress were both superpowerhouses ranked among the Ten Great Savage Beasts.

Moreover, both possessed ultimate attributes. One wielded Ultimate Ice, while the other wielded ultimate snow. Both were extraordinarily powerful.

In the original story, without these two, there would have been no God of Emotion Huo Yuhao later on.

Oh, no. It was Mr. God of Emotion Dai Yuhao.

"You still haven't answered me. Your Martial Soul is Ultimate Ice, isn't it?"

Snow Empress's sky-blue beautiful eyes studied Su Yu.

She was quite interested in someone chosen by the Extreme North World.

What was so special about this child?

What could make the Extreme North World favor him?

No, it was not merely the Extreme North World. He was also someone valued by that great Dominator, someone even Beast God Di Tian had to protect with all his strength.

There had to be some earth-shattering secret hidden within him.

Besides, this child always gave her an inexplicable sense of closeness.

Though she had never liked humans, she could not bring herself to feel much aversion toward this child.

Could it be because he was similar to her, because both of them had received the blessing of the Extreme North World?

Looking at the humanoid Ice Emperor Martial Soul behind Su Yu, Snow Empress felt that might indeed be part of the reason.

"Yes, my Martial Soul is Ultimate Ice."

Su Yu did not conceal it and answered truthfully.

Before someone as powerful as Snow Empress, there was no way to hide something like this.

She had merely asked casually, but she had long since seen through it.

Snow Empress was the being on Douluo Continent who understood ice and snow best. How could she fail to recognize Ultimate Ice?

"This Martial Soul is very powerful. The Extreme North World bestowed it upon you, so use it well."

Snow Empress gave Su Yu a deep look and advised him.

"I will."

Su Yu nodded firmly.

"No, you still do not understand. This Martial Soul is far stronger than you imagine. It is not simply Ultimate Ice."

"You are still young. When you grow up, you will understand just how precious the blessing of the Extreme North World is."

Snow Empress shook her head as she spoke.

This Heaven and Earth Blessing was an all-encompassing baptism, a complete transformation.

Having undergone a Heaven and Earth Blessing, Su Yu would at the very least have the potential to break through to the human Limit Douluo realm in the future.

The visible benefits of this Heaven and Earth Blessing were only a small part of it.

What was more precious was that it paved the way toward becoming a true powerhouse.

It could be said that with a Heaven and Earth Blessing, so long as he did not perish midway, Su Yu's future was destined to be glorious.

"Snow Empress is right. You little human brat really are incredibly lucky."

Ice Empress could not help speaking as well, her voice crisp as silver bells.

She was practically envious enough to cry.

Snow Empress was a spirit of heaven and earth born from the Extreme North, protected by the Extreme North World from birth. This was also the most important reason she had been able to cultivate all the way to nearly seven hundred thousand years.

But aside from Snow Empress, the other Soul Beasts of the Extreme North did not receive such treatment.

Even she, the second-in-command of the Extreme North, did not receive the blessing of heaven and earth.

If she had received a Heaven and Earth Blessing as well, she was at least confident that she could survive two more great tribulations.

Then she would not have been driven to distraction by the impending four-hundred-thousand-year great tribulation.

Heaven knew how devastated she had been when she saw that a human child like Su Yu had actually been chosen by the Extreme North World.

She was truly consumed by envy, jealousy, and resentment!

"Really? Hehe!"

Su Yu scratched his head and chuckled foolishly.

"Hmph, look at yourself now, and you'll understand how great the changes in you are."

Ice Empress snorted, and an ice mirror appeared out of thin air before Su Yu.

Su Yu raised his head slightly and examined it closely, only to discover that his appearance had indeed changed drastically.

Snow-white hair, ice-blue eyes... was that really him?

His facial features had not changed much, but the shift in his temperament had brought about a kind of sublimation.

Su Yu had already been quite good-looking, but now he had completely become a cool and handsome little boy.

Even Su Yu himself could hardly believe that the person in the mirror was him.

"This, I..."

Su Yu's eyes were filled with surprise. Could awakening a Martial Soul really change someone this much?

"Generally speaking, whenever a living being undergoes a drastic change in appearance, it signifies a transformation."

"It is so for Soul Beasts, and it is the same for you humans."

"You are very different from before."

Snow Empress spoke calmly.

Su Yu nodded repeatedly. He truly was different from his former self now.

It could be said that he had become more powerful by far more than a little.

"A Heaven and Earth Blessing is indeed rare. This Martial Soul is not bad either."

"From now on, cultivate this Martial Soul. As for your previous Martial Soul, do not cultivate it for the time being."

Uncle Tian looked at Su Yu as he spoke.

The Dragon God Seal was of great importance, and its quality was even higher.

For the time being, cultivating the Ice Emperor Martial Soul first would undoubtedly bring Su Yu greater benefits.

Su Yu also gave a deep hum of agreement.

The Dragon God Power within the Dragon God Seal could not be exposed carelessly.

The Ice Emperor was indeed the best choice for now.

"You actually have Twin Martial Souls?"

Snow Empress and Ice Empress were astonished once again.

Not only did he possess the Ice Emperor, he had another Martial Soul as well?

Though they were Soul Beasts, they knew what Twin Martial Souls signified.

That was a top-tier talent among human cultivators.

And what if one of those Twin Martial Souls was an Ultimate Martial Soul?

That would absolutely be a ceiling-level talent among humans.

Moreover, from the implication in Di Tian's words, this child's first Martial Soul was likely no weaker than the Ice Emperor Martial Soul.

Otherwise, Di Tian would not have told the child to cultivate the Ice Emperor Martial Soul first.

With Twin Martial Souls, who would not save the stronger one for later?

That way, they could gain more benefits when adding Soul Rings.

Snow Empress did not believe Di Tian was someone lacking in knowledge.

Hiss!

At this thought, even Snow Empress could not suppress the shock in her heart.

Just where had this child come from?
