"Hmph, then let's test that! For the sake of the Auspicious Beast, I will spare no cost." After Di Tian finished speaking, he prepared to strike once more.

A verdant green light bloomed from 'Huo Yuhao', and the snowflakes swirling around him accelerated in speed.

A massive blizzard obscured everyone's vision, and even Di Tian lost his ability to sense the location of 'Huo Yuhao'.

The Snow Dance of Ultimate Ice from her past life was displayed before everyone at this moment. Although the Snow Empress had not yet become a Soul Spirit, she had successfully replicated this technique by relying on her own power combined with a spirit bone.

Just then, the sky in the center of the Star Dou Great Forest suddenly turned colorful without warning, spreading rapidly toward this area and soon covering the region where 'Huo Yuhao' stood.

The raging blizzard stopped as abruptly as it had begun; at this moment, the power of ice and snow was no longer under the control of the Snow Empress.

Sunlight spilled down once more, illuminating the shocked face of 'Huo Yuhao', whose silver-white eyes revealed a deep sense of unwillingness.

"How could she intervene..."

Di Tian, who had been somewhat at a loss, saw this scene and immediately understood what had happened. He sneered.

"What a pity, it seems you have no chance left!"

'Huo Yuhao' looked at the triumphant Di Tian with a grim expression. She had never expected that the one in the center of the forest would intervene, suppressing her ice power in an instant, just as Xuan Zi had done in her past life.

Her heart was shrouded in intense fear. Without her power, the current Huo Yuhao was nothing but prey. She could not imagine what would become of herself if Huo Yuhao were to die. Now, she could only make a final struggle, staring fixedly at the slowly approaching Di Tian.

"If you dare to lay a hand on him, I will surely ignite a war, I swear it! I will ensure that your Star Dou Great Forest never knows another day of peace!"

Di Tian sneered and shook his head, arriving before her and looking into those silver-white eyes flickering with madness.

"It seems you truly have no other tricks left. Human, die!"

"Di Tian." An ethereal voice rang out, interrupting Di Tian's movements.

Di Tian was startled and immediately knelt on one knee toward the center of the forest. "Boss!"

"I am already aware of the situation. Bring that human to see me."

An expression of extreme shock appeared on Di Tian's face. "Boss! Why? Are we still afraid of that group from the Far North..."

"Just do as I say. Bring him here."

"...Yes."

Di Tian cast a cold glance at Huo Yuhao. The Snow Empress's power was receding, and seeing his eyes and hair gradually return to their original state, he let out a cold snort.

"Consider yourself lucky!" After speaking, he raised his hand to grab Huo Yuhao, then turned to the Scarlet King and said, "Let's go!"

The Scarlet King nodded hurriedly and, carrying the Auspicious Beast, vanished in a flash.

Only the Titan Giant Ape remained in place, scratching his head in confusion.

"The Star Dou Great Forest has such a soul beast? To think the Beast God would be so obedient."

This was a disaster; Di Tian hadn't given him any chance to rescue the boy, simply snatching Huo Yuhao away.

He stood in place for a moment before the sound of air being torn apart reached him. The Sky Azure Bull Python appeared by his side, asking anxiously the moment he arrived.

"Titan! What happened? Why did the Beast God come here?"

After the Titan Giant Ape recounted everything that had occurred, a look of worry appeared in the Sky Azure Bull Python's eyes. He looked back toward the center of the Star Dou Great Forest, his gaze flickering.

"...The Beast God's boss? How could Yuhao possibly be involved with the Auspicious Beast..."

"Big Brother, should we go save him?"

The Titan Giant Ape asked urgently; he had just fought side-by-side with Huo Yuhao, and now he had to watch helplessly as Huo Yuhao walked into the jaws of death.

The Sky Azure Bull Python also wore a look of regret and shook his head gently.

"We don't have the ability... going there would be suicide. However, since that person didn't let Di Tian kill him, there should still be a turning point. If Xiao Wu comes, don't tell her yet."

Center of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Returning to his territory, Di Tian tossed Huo Yuhao onto the ground. Having just endured the ravages of the Snow Empress's power, Huo Yuhao's body was already extremely fragile.

After being thrown to the ground, he immediately coughed up two mouthfuls of blood.

"Yuhao, how are you feeling?" the others in the spiritual space asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I won't die."

After sensing his internal state, Huo Yuhao shook his head with a bitter smile. This was even more miserable than when Di Tian had used his body in his past life; at least back then, he had already been a Soul Ancestor.

Now he was barely a Soul Ancestor, and it was only thanks to his focus on physical conditioning in this rebirth, along with the baptism of Tian Meng's energy, that these injuries were not fatal.

"Your body is in terrible shape right now. Find an opportunity to recover as soon as possible, then come to the Far North to find me. Since that person wants to see you, they shouldn't kill you."

The Snow Empress's voice emanated from Huo Yuhao's mouth. If an outsider were to see this, they would surely find it strange—why was this person talking to himself in different voices?

"Understood, I will get there as soon as I can."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and looked up at Di Tian. "What? Does the Beast God intend to help me heal?"

Facing this guy who had been at odds with him since his past life, Huo Yuhao couldn't muster a pleasant expression; this time, he had nearly died.

Di Tian snorted coldly.

"Come with me to see the Boss now. Don't even think about leaving until the Boss gives the order! I can see your physical state; I never imagined a human could possess such a physique. It truly makes me look at you with a bit more respect."

"It's just from exercising more than usual."

"Follow me."

Di Tian did not continue the conversation. He did not care about Huo Yuhao's physical condition, leading him forward step by step.

"Why not take me directly to the destination?" Huo Yuhao asked, somewhat puzzled.

Di Tian urged him impatiently, "Because this is out of respect for the Boss. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."

Upon hearing Di Tian's words, Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered. In his past life, he only knew that there was an existence in the Star Dou Great Forest above Di Tian, but he had never seen it.

It appeared now that Di Tian was truly loyal to this Boss, from which it could be inferred that this existence's strength almost completely crushed Di Tian's.

Otherwise, given the soul beasts' nature of respecting strength, how could he tolerate an existence not as strong as himself riding on his head?

One had to know that even when the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was crushed by Di Tian in his past life, it remained extremely unconvinced.

"We're here," Di Tian's voice rang out.

Regaining his focus, Huo Yuhao looked around, "Isn't there nothing here?"

Before he could finish his sentence, the space in front of him suddenly tore open a fissure, the interior possessing a pitch-black hue like an abyss.

"Spatial power?" Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, as he formed some guesses in his heart.

"Go in."

Di Tian's voice sounded again, his eyes fixed intently on every move Huo Yuhao made.

"Thinking of running away now is nothing but a pipe dream."

Huo Yuhao did not hesitate any longer, lifting his foot to step into the fissure, feeling as if he were passing through a thin membrane, "A strange sensation..."

As soon as he walked in, Huo Yuhao felt a dense aura of life and began to survey his surroundings.

He was in a vast space, and apart from himself, there was only a giant dragon with a body of pure silver-white.

It was not a common metallic luster, but rather the texture of silver-white crystal. Beside the giant dragon lay a large, cyan-green stone radiating an aura of life.

"Gold... Gold of Life!"

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened like copper bells. Having spent a long time with the Life-Giving Carving Knife in his past life, he recognized the origin of the stone at a glance.

The size of this Gold of Life was more than enough to forge hundreds of carving knives, instantly making Huo Yuhao realize what it meant to be truly wealthy.

"You have come."

The silver-white giant dragon opened her eyes. Her purple pupils held a hint of curiosity as she sized up the first human she had ever seen. She did not open her mouth, yet an ethereal female voice resonated from all directions of the space.

Huo Yuhao's pupils shook violently. From the body of the dragon before him, he felt an aura comparable to a God King. How could this be? How could a soul beast possess the aura of a god?

Having experienced his past life, Huo Yuhao understood even better that soul beasts had no possibility of becoming gods. If soul beasts could truly become gods, why would Tian Meng and the others have gone to such great lengths to choose him in his past life?

As his thoughts raced, he finally recalled the legends of the God Realm from his past life. Combining this with the silver appearance of the giant dragon before him, Huo Yuhao blurted out her identity.

"Greetings, Silver Dragon King."
