Sparring

When the calamity clouds dispersed, the Snow Empress's figure reappeared in the sky.

"She did it! Xue'er did it!"

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Ice Empress watched with excitement as Snow Empress successfully transcended her tribulation.

"Ouch! Bingbing, can you put me down? You're making me want to throw up."

"Ah!"

Upon hearing Tian Meng's painful cries, Ice Empress turned around abruptly and discovered that Tian Meng had somehow gotten caught in her own scorpion tail.

At the same time, accompanied by his own excitement, the scorpion tail swayed continuously behind Ice Empress.

"Oh! Come down quickly!"

From the outside, people looked at the Snow Empress, whose pretty face was only slightly dusted from being struck by lightning.

Huo Yuhao finally calmed down.

"Sister Xue'er, are you alright?"

Seeing Snow Empress land on the ground, Huo Yuhao quickly went to greet her.

As the crowd gathered, a cloud of snowflakes enveloped the Snow Empress, obscuring Snow Empress figure. When Snow Empress reappeared before them, even the dust on her pretty face had vanished.

After removing all traces of her disheveled appearance, Snow Empress smiled and reached out to stroke the heads of Huo Yuhao and Wang Qiu'er respectively.

"I'm fine. Thanks to you two little ones, I was able to survive this Heavenly Tribulation unscathed."

"I told you, your hands are so cold! Don't touch me!"

Because Di Qiu'er possesses the Ultimate Fire attribute, she dislikes Snow Empress's icy hands.

"Congratulations to Xue'er / Snow Empress on successfully surviving the Heavenly Tribulation."

Ice Empress and the other Ferocious Beast also gathered around to congratulate Snow Empress.

Snow Empress simply nodded to everyone, and then a strong fighting spirit rose from Snow Empress eyes.

Her gaze was fixed intently on Di Tian, who was approaching, and an Emperor Sword appeared in her hand.

"Di Tian, how about we have a friendly spar?"

Snow Empress was still resentful about how her aura had been at a disadvantage when she confronted Di Tian a few days ago.

"Good"

Without uttering any further words, Di Tian spread his dragon wings and followed Snow Empress into the sky.

Just as Huo Yuhao on the ground was about to ride the Auspicious Clouds to follow, a slender hand pressed down on his shoulder.

"Yuhao, your cultivation is still too weak. Just stay here!"

"Alright! Senior Gu Yuena!"

Looking up in the direction where the two disappeared, Huo Yuhao could clearly feel the oppressive force, like Mount Tai pressing down, which did not diminish even from a distance of thousands of meters.

A dazzling black sword light flashed by, followed by a deafening clang of metal striking metal in the sky.

"That's Di Tian's Black Dragon Sword! I didn't expect Di Tian to use his Black Dragon Sword right from the start."

Di Qiu'er lay on the ground, gazing at the sky with a sense of boredom. Her strength was also insufficient to support her in watching the battle between Di Tian and Snow Empress. Therefore, she could only stay on the ground like Huo Yuhao and wait for the two to finish their sparring.

Incidentally, she can also provide Huo Yuhao with some on-site commentary.

"I never expected that Beast God Di Tian, besides his powerful and domineering physique, would also be such a formidable swordsman."

Huo Yuhao was only a beginner in swordsmanship, so he couldn't sense the boundless sword intent contained in Di Tian's Black Dragon Sword technique.

Ever since he had whipped Dai Huabin's face until it was mangled with a Steel Whip, he had developed a liking for the feeling of being struck by a blunt object.

As the two were talking, black and white lights intertwined high in the sky. Sometimes darkness enveloped the entire sky, and sometimes a white light shone from the darkness, illuminating the whole sky.

"Xue Wu Shining Sun"

Suddenly, a blue beam of light shot into the sky, accompanied by the Snow Empress's delicate shout, and an extreme chill spread outwards from the beam of light.

"Why are these two making such a fuss over a friendly spar? My honey's frozen solid!"

Beside Huo Yuhao, the fierce-looking Xiong Jun was currently hugging a beehive that had been frozen into an ice block and complaining.

"Alright, Xiong Jun, stop complaining. Let's cover this area first! Otherwise, the entire Lake of Life will freeze over soon."

"Alright, Bi Ji, don't rush me."

Xiong Jun was reluctant to put the beehive in his hand on the ground, muttering complaints under his breath. However, he still released a golden Soul Power as Bi Ji requested.

At the same time, several other Ferocious Beast attacked simultaneously, and in an instant, the Lake of Life was illuminated by the Soul Power of these Ferocious Beast, becoming a kaleidoscope of colors.

Red, purple, green, and gold—all sorts of Soul Power intertwined above the Lake of Life, eventually forming a massive protective shield that enveloped the entire Lake of Life and the Land of Great Evil.

Meanwhile, the areas not enveloped by Soul Power were instantly blanketed in white by the snow and wind brought by the Snow Empress's Xue Wu Shining Sun.

Snow Empress's Xue Wu Shining Sun had claimed most of the Core Circle as her territory.

The Snow Empress, empowered by the domain, stretched out a snow-white hand and patted towards Di Tian.

"Emperor Palm. Great Cold Without Snow!"

In an instant, white light and black light each occupied two sides in the sky and began to contend with each other.

"Boom!"

The two beams of light collided in mid-air, creating a violent explosion.

Huo Yuhao, who was unable to open his eyes due to the shock of the explosion, opened them when the sky above had returned to calm.

The two figures, one white and one black, who were sparring, were slowly descending towards the ground.

"Sister Xue'er, are you alright?"

As soon as Snow Empress landed, Huo Yuhao anxiously approached her and asked with concern.

I'm fine! Don't worry about me!

At this moment, Snow Empress was only breathing a little rapidly, but seemed to be fine.

"Sister Xue'er, what about the sparring just now?"

Seeing that Snow Empress was alright, Huo Yuhao felt relieved, and at the same time, he was very curious about the result of their sparring match.

"A draw!"

Before Snow Empress could speak, Di Tian, who was standing to the side, said calmly.

"No! I lost this time!"

Although the two were evenly matched in their sparring, Snow Empress knew in her heart that if the fight continued, she would definitely lose. That's why she was so eager to use both the Emperor Palm Emperor's Cold Heaven techniques simultaneously, despite the excessive consumption of her Soul Power, and only then was she able to barely manage to fight Di Tian to a draw.

Moreover, Snow Empress vaguely sensed that Di Tian still had some trump cards up his sleeve. This was because, during their sparring earlier, Snow Empress had suddenly felt a deadly threat emanating from Di Tian for a fleeting moment.

However, this aura vanished in an instant. At one point, Snow Empress thought it was just her imagination.

As expected of a veteran powerhouse, Di Tian was indeed someone I, a mere veteran who had just broken through 700,000 years of experience, could not possibly defeat.

However, this sparring session also brought Snow Empress, who had just broken through, a lot of insights. Snow Empress was confident that, given more time, she would definitely be able to defeat Di Tian in the future.
