The day after Yu Daoyun left, Huo Yuhao successfully arrived at the periphery of the core zone, preparing to initiate their fishing plan.

They intended to trap the Ice Empress first, then force her to submit.

Huo Yuhao asked with some trepidation, "Brother Sky Dream, can we really succeed? I have a bad premonition; I feel like there is danger this time."

This intuition had helped him avoid many crises in the dark, and this time was no different.

Hearing this, Tian Meng patted his chest and guaranteed, "Don't you worry, Yuhao. If Brother doesn't make a move, fine, but once I do, I'll surely dazzle your eyes. Get ready to accept your second Martial Soul."

Huo Yuhao nodded and silently hid himself.

Although he sensed danger, Huo Yuhao still believed that Brother Sky Dream would not harm him.

As long as he obtained this second Martial Soul, he would be able to surpass Senior Yu, right?

Soon, Tian Meng released the aura of his own "power bank" and shouted toward the depths of the Extreme North, "Bingbing, my dear Bingbing, haven't you always missed me? Now that I've returned, do you dare come out and face me?"

"Bingbing, I'm back, Tian Meng is back. Every time I think of your enchanting grace, I can't sleep through the night. If you want to see me, hurry over. I know you can feel my aura."

As soon as these words were spoken, before the Ice Empress even appeared, the corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

So sleazy!

Just then, the sky in the depths of the Extreme North suddenly changed color. A layer of emerald light spread out, and the surrounding temperature plummeted to the extreme.

Huo Yuhao gasped.

What a powerful second Martial Soul.

The next moment, the Ice Empress's crisp voice arrived: "Tian Meng, I didn't expect you to still be alive. This Empress misses you dearly—I can't wait to eat you."

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's tone suddenly turned tender. "Bingbing, I only came back because I was afraid you would die. Every time I sleep, I think of your peerless grace and those ample breasts. I really miss you so much; I can't wait to become your partner."

"Your next life-limit is approaching, isn't it? I calculated that you would be in trouble within a hundred years, so I came back. Let's be together forever."

Hearing this, goosebumps rose all over Huo Yuhao's body.

So sleazy!

So Brother Sky Dream was a guy full of sleazy talk.

The Ice Empress's face sank, but a playful smile immediately appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Tian Meng was right; she was indeed facing her life-limit, but she had already found a solution: the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow sent by little Yu.

Now that Tian Meng had returned, it was the perfect time to absorb his origin; it would make overcoming her tribulation twice as easy with half the effort.

At this moment.

Tian Meng sensed that something was wrong with the aura. He realized the Ice Empress wasn't panicking and her heartbeat was calm, so he couldn't help but ask, "Ice Empress, could it be that you've found a way to break through your life-limit?"

"Guess?"

The Ice Empress smiled and instantly reverted to her true form as the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion. A terrifying pressure and waves of soul power erupted, startling Tian Meng into a daze.

Tian Meng's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no!

Something went wrong!

The Ice Empress found a way!

Now, he had essentially delivered himself to his death.

Tian Meng reacted immediately. Before the Ice Empress could release her skills, he unleashed his molted shell to trap her and shouted, "Run, Yuhao! Something's wrong!"

Huo Yuhao didn't need Brother Sky Dream to remind him; he was already bolting.

But he was only a one-ring Soul Master, while behind him was a 390,000-year-old super fierce beast.

Tian Meng was frantic; he directly seized control of Huo Yuhao's body and began burrowing into the ground to escape.

Behind them, after three seconds of struggling, the Ice Empress completely broke free from the molted shell and gave chase, hounding Tian Meng wherever he ran.

Tian Meng's heart turned cold.

He had calculated everything, but he hadn't calculated that the Ice Empress had found a way to survive her tribulation. He had run right to her doorstep to serve himself as a buffet.

Soon, a scene played out across the Extreme North: the Ice Empress chasing Huo Yuhao everywhere, hounding him, yet he just wouldn't die.

The 390,000-year-old Ice Empress seemed to have been cursed by the Plane Lord; she was half a beat slow every single time.

Huo Yuhao thus escaped one assassination attempt after another.

At this moment, the true Child of Destiny was fully manifested.

A one-ring Soul Master being hunted by a 390,000-year-old Ice Jade Empress Scorpion and remaining unscathed was like a one-ring Ning Rongrong holding a Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda and tanking the ninth soul skill of a level 99 peak Douluo.

This is what it means to be the Child of Destiny.

Until the very end, Electrolux awakened prematurely and, using Tian Meng's origin, released Undead magic, which finally allowed him to take Huo Yuhao and escape the Extreme North.

At this moment.

The Ice Empress stood on the snow of the Extreme North, questioning her own strength for the first time.

A dignified beast ranked seventh among the Ten Great Fierce Beasts had hunted a one-ring Soul Master, and not only failed to kill him, but let him escape.

A humiliating disgrace, simply a humiliating disgrace.

The Ice Empress grew angrier the more she thought about it, catching several ice silkworms for dinner the moment she returned to the Extreme North.

On the other side, amidst the frozen tundra of the Extreme North, Yu Daoyun flew through the air, admiring the scenery along the way without the slightest fear of the Soul Beasts below.

With the Snow Empress's brand upon him, these Fierce Beasts would bow their heads in submission the moment they caught a glimpse of him.

In the Extreme North, the Snow Empress was the absolute hegemon, her status even higher than that of Di Tian in Star Dou.

Yu Daoyun had naturally become the emperor of the Extreme North.

Yu Daoyun had heard the commotion from earlier; he cast a deep look in the direction where Huo Yuhao had vanished and sighed, "The Child of Destiny is truly terrifying. Even the 390,000-year-old Ice Empress was cursed by the Plane Master. If it were me, I truly wouldn't find any way to escape from the Ice Empress's clutches."

"This is practically the Ice Empress's shame, a level of humiliation comparable to Qian Daoliu unleashing his ninth Martial Soul skill only to be blocked by a one-ring Ning Rongrong."

"However... could this fellow Huo Yuhao turn a misfortune into a blessing, escape death, encounter a dying top-tier Soul Beast, and eventually absorb it as his Martial Soul to start a second life of cheating?"

"That actually seems quite possible. After all, if the Child of Destiny didn't have destiny, he couldn't be called the Child of Destiny. Tang San might even find a way to buff his own dog."

Thinking this, Yu Daoyun sighed, lamenting how lucky Huo Yuhao truly was.

Suddenly, Yu Daoyun raised his eyes and frowned as he spotted a squad of human Soul Masters several kilometers away, deep within the Extreme North.

He was not currently in the core circle of the Extreme North, but the temperature here was still not something an ordinary Soul Master could withstand.

What were this group of Soul Masters doing in the Extreme North? He decided to go up and take a look.

Yu Daoyun immediately accelerated, concealing his figure.

In the snow.

A group of Soul Masters clad in black robes were setting up Soul Tool traps, surrounding a valley of Soul Beasts; as long as a large number of Soul Beasts appeared, these Soul Tools would be triggered.

At this moment, one of the black-robed youths said, "Young Master Yan Feng, are we really going to hunt so many ice-attribute Soul Beasts at once? I heard that the Soul Beasts of the Extreme North are not to be trifled with and might even provoke powerful existences. Why don't we go to the Star Dou Forest or the Evil Demon Forest instead?"

This person was named Tang Dai, a legitimate descendant of the Tang family, whose Martial Soul was the Skeleton King, a rare top-tier Martial Soul.

Their mission this time was to hunt Soul Beasts and collect enough beast souls and beast blood.

At this, the black-clad youth at the very front said, "This is the Sect Master's order; why are you spouting so much nonsense? We only need to execute the mission. Besides, there are no disciples of that damned Shrek Supervisory Team here, making it easier to act."

"You lot, you'd better move faster. We need to have the traps set before dark, waiting for this group of Soul Beasts to return home."

This person was none other than Yan Feng, the personal disciple of the Sacred Spirit Sect Master. The soul power fluctuations he radiated had reached the Soul Emperor level, making him a genius on the same level as Ma Xiaotao.

Following Yan Feng's order, the black-robed Soul Masters present quickened the pace of their trap setting.
