Before long, a comment appeared on the Heavenly Screen.
[Sword Douluo Chen Xin: The rankings aren't based solely on years of cultivation.]
[Sword Douluo Chen Xin: The fact that Snow Empress ranks above Evil Emperor means her combat strength is greater.]
[Gu Rong: With seven hundred thousand years of cultivation, she can surpass an Eighty Thousand Years of Cultivation Soul Beast. This Snow Empress is truly terrifying.]
[Sea Horse Douluo: Soul Beast cultivation isn't measured only by years. Bloodline, talent, and combat ability are equally important.]
[Rogue Soul Master: So that's how it is. Snow Empress's ranking puts strength first.]
Spirit City.
Golden Crocodile Douluo stared at the White Clothes figure on the Heavenly Screen and pondered for a moment.
"I have heard some rumors about the Far North."
"There is an extremely frigid region there that ordinary Soul Masters simply cannot enter."
"They say the Far North has three great kings, one of whom is Snow Empress."
Bibi Dong asked, "Snow Empress?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded.
"But there are very few records about her."
"Now it seems she is the ruler of the Far North."
Bibi Dong watched the scene of Snow Empress swinging her sword, her expression gradually turning solemn.
A seven-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast whose swordsmanship had already reached such a realm.
That sword alone was enough to kill the vast majority of Titled Douluo.
"Another powerful figure I have never heard of."
Bibi Dong raised her hand, the hem of her black dress swaying gently with the motion.
"I would like to see exactly how she surpassed Evil Emperor."
Star Dou Great Forest.
Bear Lord looked at the White Clothes figure on the Heavenly Screen, surprise appearing on his face.
"There is actually a Soul Beast like this in the Far North?"
Bi Ji nodded. "Snow Empress is one of the rulers of the Far North."
Myriad Demon King looked toward Di Tian.
"Di Tian, have you met her?"
Di Tian did not answer.
His gaze lingered on the longsword in Snow Empress's hand.
"I have."
"She is very strong."
Bear Lord asked, "Stronger than Evil Emperor?"
Di Tian fell silent for a moment.
"If they fought head-on, Evil Emperor might not be able to defeat her."
Gu Yuena watched the Heavenly Screen.
Snow Empress's true body had been nurtured from the purest Ice-Snow Origin of the Far North.
She possessed ice-attribute power close to the absolute limit, and she had merged the path of ice and snow into her swordsmanship.
Seven hundred thousand years of cultivation could no longer fully represent her combat strength.
"This ranking is not wrong."
Gu Yuena withdrew her gaze.
"Snow Empress truly stands above Evil Emperor."
Sun Moon Continent.
Within Evil Demon Forest.
Evil Emperor looked at the White Clothes woman on the Heavenly Screen, its enormous tentacles slowly coming to a halt.
"Snow Empress?"
It had once heard of Snow Empress of the Far North.
However, the two had never truly fought.
Evil Emperor had always believed that its cultivation exceeded hers by one hundred thousand years. With its ultimate Spiritual Power and Light of Time and Space, Snow Empress could never be its opponent.
Now, it had just obtained a God-Level Bloodline and the Time Stop Soul Skill, and its strength was soaring.
Yet the Heavenly Screen told it that Snow Empress ranked above it.
"With only seven hundred thousand years of cultivation, how can she surpass me?"
Evil Emperor's Spiritual Power spread in every direction.
Above Evil Demon Forest, space twisted continuously.
As it watched Snow Empress on the screen, an intense fighting spirit rose within it for the first time.
"Once I completely fuse with the Candle Dragon Bloodline and master the laws of time and space, I will settle this with you."
"I would like to see whether your sword of ice and snow can withstand Time Stop."
High in the sky.
Golden words gathered once more.
Snow Empress stood atop an iceberg.
Snow swirled slowly around her, while the cold between heaven and earth steadily intensified.
[Snow Empress is no ordinary Soul Beast.]
[Her true body is the purest Ice-Snow Origin of the Far North.]
[She was born from heaven and earth.]
[The first Spirit of Heaven and Earth on Douluo Continent.]
[Born of heaven and nurtured by earth, with neither father nor mother.]
[As long as she remains in the Far North, she can draw upon endless power of ice and snow.]
Across the continent, countless Soul Masters looked at these lines of text.
They finally understood why Snow Empress could take human form.
This body had not been formed through the transformation of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
From the moment she was born, she had possessed a form similar to that of a human.
[Rogue Soul Emperor: So she is a Spirit of Heaven and Earth formed from ice and snow!]
[Elephant Armor Sect Master Huyan Zhen: No wonder Snow Empress is completely different from other Soul Beasts.]
[Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen: Nurtured by heaven and earth, the first Spirit of Heaven and Earth in the Far North—her origins are indeed astounding.]
[Sword Douluo Chen Xin: It is not that she possesses an ice-snow attribute. She herself represents ice and snow.]
[Sea Horse Douluo: As long as she remains in the Far North, the power of heaven and earth she can command is nearly limitless.]
[Star Luo Empire Duke of Netherworld: Seven hundred thousand years of cultivation is merely superficial. Snow Empress's combat strength in the Far North far exceeds that of an ordinary seven-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast.]
Star Dou Great Forest.
Bear Lord stared at the words on the Heavenly Screen and scratched his head with his broad palm.
"A Spirit of Heaven and Earth?"
Myriad Demon King's expression was grave.
"Plant-type Soul Beasts cultivate by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, but we still possess races and bloodlines."
"Snow Empress was directly nurtured from the Ice-Snow Origin."
"She and the Far North cannot truly be separated."
Bi Ji nodded gently.
"Fighting Snow Empress in the Far North is equivalent to becoming enemies with the entire snowfield."
Di Tian watched the White Clothes figure standing atop the iceberg.
He had once visited the Far North.
The environment there was so harsh that even Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts could not endure the core region for long.
Yet Snow Empress could draw upon the wind and snow filling the sky to continuously replenish her strength.
If a battle broke out in the Far North, defeating her would indeed require paying an enormous price.
Gu Yuena's purple eyes shifted slightly.
"A Spirit of Heaven and Earth is favored by the plane."
"Such origins are indeed extraordinary."
"It is no surprise that she was able to cultivate to her current realm in the Far North."
Sun Moon Continent.
Evil Demon Forest.
Dark red light flickered continuously within Evil Emperor's enormous single eye.
It had just acquired a trace of the Candle Dragon Bloodline.
Its life level had already undergone a tremendous transformation.
Yet after learning of Snow Empress's origins, it still did not accept this ranking.
"So what if she is a Spirit of Heaven and Earth?"
"I now possess a God-Level Bloodline as well."
"I have eight hundred thousand years of cultivation and command Light of Time and Space and Time Stop."
"Snow Empress has only seven hundred thousand years."
"Why should she stand above me?"
Hundreds of tentacles sliced through the sky.
Evil Emperor's immense Spiritual Power enveloped Evil Demon Forest.
"Heavenly Dao had better give me a reason that convinces me."
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Mountain stone steps.
Qian Daochen stopped walking.
He raised his head to look at Snow Empress on the Heavenly Screen, and a trace of remembrance appeared in his eyes.
"It's her."
The ice-snow longsword in Snow Empress's hand had become very close to the one in his memories.
Only its sword intent was more complete now.
Between every move and stance, traces of his swordsmanship remained.
Qian Daochen already knew.
All these years, Snow Empress had never put down her sword.
Ning Rongrong stood beside him.
She first glanced at the Heavenly Screen, then turned toward Qian Daochen.
"You know Snow Empress?"
Qian Daochen did not deny it.
"Many years ago, I went to the Far North to train."
"At the time, she had just begun undergoing her 700,000-Year Heavenly Tribulation."
Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes widened.
"You even know a seven-hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast?"
Qian Daochen continued toward the back mountain.
"You could call her an old acquaintance."
Ning Rongrong hurried after him.
"Just an old acquaintance?"
She clearly did not believe him.
Qian Daochen looked at the sword in Snow Empress's hand.
"She is still waiting for me."
Ning Rongrong's steps faltered.
She looked at the handsome face beside her, more questions arising in her heart.
Just how many powerful figures did this man who had struck her twice and come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to retrieve a sword know?
