Background / History

Snow Empress and Ice Emperor found Xue Chen as an infant six years before his martial soul awakening. His ability to survive the Far North’s winter without suffering from its cold already struck them as unusual. Snow Empress adopted him and raised him in the Far North, where he regards her as his mother 1 26 28.

By the beginning of the story, she has dominated the Far North for nearly seven hundred thousand years. Her experience includes extensive knowledge of human soul masters and their secrets, as well as a previous encounter with a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon soul master who ventured into her territory 1 6 9.

She prepared an eighty-thousand-year Ice Crystal Jade Orchid for her next heavenly tribulation. Despite its rarity and importance to her own survival, she later gives it to Xue Chen to establish his ice-attribute foundation 30 31.

Appearance

Snow Empress has a beautiful, slender humanoid appearance, with white clothing and blue coloring that distinguish her from Ice Emperor 6 28.

• Hair: Long, ice-blue hair 4 35.
• Eyes: Clear, ice-blue eyes 3.
• Clothing: White robes 6.
• Voice: Ethereal and clear, capable of conveying commanding authority without being loud 28.
• Aura: An intense chill that becomes overwhelming when she releases her power 6 35.

Personality

Snow Empress ordinarily maintains a calm, authoritative manner. When Ice Emperor prepares to attack Red King, she intervenes and chooses a private discussion rather than immediately severing relations with Star Dou Forest. She takes the silver scale’s reaction seriously but refuses to let its evidence override her responsibility toward Xue Chen 28 29.

Her composure gives way to visible anxiety when Xue Chen is endangered. During his first tribulation, she carefully checks his condition instead of forcibly dispersing lightning that could injure him. Once he demonstrates that he can absorb it, she allows him to continue under her protection 6 8.

As a mother and teacher, she combines reassurance with practical guidance. She encourages Xue Chen to build his strength rather than become lost in questions about his origins, and values a stronger foundation above simply acquiring more soul skills. Her willingness to surrender her tribulation herb and confront Di Tian reflects how strongly she prioritizes her son 11 29 31 33 36.

Abilities & Skills

Ultimate Ice

Snow Empress is described as a born master of Ultimate Ice. Her soul power produces extreme cold and can resonate with the icy power of the Far North 17 35 36.

• Releases cold powerful enough to make the air inside the Ice Crystal Palace seem ready to freeze 6.
• Reinforces and protects the Ice Crystal Palace against outside attacks 3 36.
• Draws on the Far North’s icy power when preparing Emperor Palm 36.

Emperor Palm — Great Cold Without Snow

One of her three supreme arts, Emperor Palm concentrates her cold power into a devastating palm attack 7 11 36.

• Destroys the second thunder dragon during Xue Chen’s first heavenly tribulation 7.
• Manifests through an azure, rune-covered magic circle as a nearly transparent ice-blue palm print 36.
• Creates a vacuum along its path and locks onto Di Tian with a powerful cold intent 36.
• Meets Di Tian’s Supreme Dark Dragon Breath in a stalemate; the collision tears up permafrost and collapses distant snow peaks 36.

Emperor Sword and Emperor Cold Heaven

Emperor Sword and Emperor Cold Heaven are named alongside Emperor Palm as Snow Empress’s three supreme arts. Their individual effects are not demonstrated in the supplied chapters 11 30.

• She intends to impart her innate abilities to Xue Chen once his foundation is stable 11.
• An ice-attribute origin is required for him to begin practicing these arts; his original lightning attribute alone is incompatible 11 30.

Extreme Cold Domain

Her domain embodies her understanding of the laws of ice, filling the surrounding area with freezing and binding forces 36.

• Makes space appear to solidify and light become slow and distorted 36.
• Severely hinders Di Tian’s flight, movements, and use of soul skills 36.
• Forces him to expend several times his usual power on simple actions 36.
• Supplies the core power for Ice Seal — Ten Thousand Years 36.

Ice Seal — Ten Thousand Years

Used within Extreme Cold Domain, this technique lowers the temperature to what the narration describes as theoretically absolute zero and encases its target in mysterious ice 36.

• Covers Di Tian’s protective dragon aura with rune-marked ice 36.
• Spreads beyond the surface toward his flesh and bones 36.
• Temporarily restrains most of his body, but his destructive dark mist cracks and shatters the ice 36.

Ice Seal Soul Mark

Snow Empress can preserve a fading soul mark by freezing it rather than allowing it to disappear 34.

• Saves the Snow Domain Thunder Leopard’s final primal soul mark during its voluntary sacrifice 34.
• Leaves the preserved mark dormant within the deepest part of Xue Chen’s third soul ring 34.
• The passage establishes preservation, not the leopard’s revival 34.

Ice-Origin Formation

Snow Empress knows how to establish an ice-attribute foundation in someone whose existing power is lightning-based 30 31.

• Estimates an eighty-percent success chance using her own origin power alone 30.
• States that combining Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow with the Far North Ice Spring raises that chance to one hundred percent 30.
• Uses the Ice Crystal Jade Orchid to prepare Xue Chen’s physique and protect his vital meridians and dantian during the process 31.
• Successfully helps him condense an Ice Attribute Origin Seed, opening the way to her supreme arts 31 32.

Perception, Movement, and Instruction

Her spiritual perception and control support both combat and Xue Chen’s training 1 6 34.

• Distinguishes Xue Chen’s dragon martial soul from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon through its aura and bloodline quality 1.
• Probes his vitality, meridians, and physical transformation while he absorbs tribulation lightning 6.
• Holds him aloft with soul power and carefully lowers him afterward 8 10.
• Carries him in a white halo while flying across the Far North 33.
• Identifies tactical combinations between his thunder clone, offensive soul skills, and dragon-claw attacks 34.

Equipment / Items

• Golden soul-power testing crystal: Measures soul-power quantity, quality, and original potential. Snow Empress uses it to confirm Xue Chen’s innate level-twenty soul power 3.
• Eighty-Thousand-Year Ice Crystal Jade Orchid: A rare herb originally reserved for her next tribulation; given to Xue Chen to improve his physique and support ice-origin formation 30 31.
• Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow: A resource Xue Chen brings back, later used as the Ultimate Ice catalyst for his Origin Seed 30 31.

Relationships

• Xue Chen — Adoptive son and student. She raises him, oversees his cultivation, and refuses to surrender him against his wishes, even to Di Tian 1 11 26 29 36.
• Ice Emperor — Long-standing companion and fellow ruler. Tens of thousands of years together have given them a close rapport; Snow Empress entrusts Xue Chen to her before confronting Di Tian 28 35.
• Xiao Bai — Fellow ruler and family member who addresses her as “Mother.” He guards Xue Chen while she investigates and confronts the tribulation 4 5 6.
• Di Tian — An established acquaintance and rival sovereign. His demand for Xue Chen leads from negotiations through Red King to a direct battle 29 35 36.
• Red King — Di Tian’s emissary. She prevents Ice Emperor from attacking him, hears his explanation, and rejects his request to take Xue Chen without Di Tian appearing personally 28 29.
• Snow Domain Thunder Leopard — A dying soul beast whose voluntary sacrifice benefits Xue Chen. Snow Empress preserves its remaining soul mark inside the resulting ring 33 34.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Martial Soul Awakening and First Tribulation

Snow Empress supplies the soul-power guidance for Xue Chen’s awakening and helps him manifest his second martial soul. Her testing crystal reveals innate level-twenty soul power, but she cannot identify either newly awakened martial soul 1 2 3.

When the lightning tribulation targets the Ice Crystal Palace, she initially tries to separate its energy from Xue Chen. After discovering that it is strengthening him, she destroys the second thunder dragon and later supports his decision to absorb further strikes. The resulting blue ring, which circles his body rather than a martial soul, exceeds even her knowledge of the soul-master system 5 6 7 8 9.

Star Dou Forest’s Claim

Red King’s arrival introduces the claim that Xue Chen is Star Dou Forest’s young master. Snow Empress ends the immediate confrontation and brings the parties to the Ice Crystal Palace. Although the silver scale’s resonance lends credibility to the claim, she refuses to hand over her son and demands that Di Tian come himself 28 29.

Establishing Xue Chen’s Ice Foundation

Snow Empress takes Xue Chen to the Far North Ice Spring and gives him the orchid prepared for her own tribulation. Using its medicinal protection, the spring’s origin power, and Profound Ice Marrow, she helps him gain an Ice Attribute Origin Seed 30 31 32.

She subsequently supports his second tribulation and guides him to the dying Snow Domain Thunder Leopard for his third soul ring. After preserving the leopard’s soul mark, she helps Xue Chen understand how to integrate his new thunder-clone skill into combat 32 33 34.

Confrontation with Di Tian

Upon sensing Di Tian’s arrival, Snow Empress leaves Xue Chen with Ice Emperor and returns to face him alone. She rejects his demand to surrender the child and stands her ground against his dragon might 35.

When Di Tian moves toward Ice Emperor’s cavern, she uses her domain and ice seal to stop him. He breaks free, but her Emperor Palm matches his Supreme Dark Dragon Breath. The supplied account ends with their clash at a stalemate and Ice Emperor approaching with Xue Chen 36.
