Titan Snow Demon King

"What's lecherous about it? Besides, I'm looking at a promising youngster." Hearing Xian Lin'er's words, Yan Shaozhe's first concern was his image, before he spoke.

Xian Lin'er rolled her eyes at him and said coldly, "Let's get this straight first. Both the soul skills and attributes of his first martial soul suit our Soul Tool Department perfectly. If you dare snatch him away, I swear I'll fight you to the death."

Zhang Lexuan had invited them to provide protection, after all. Before setting out, they had naturally investigated everything about the person they were protecting-his age, level, energy, and soul skills. They had learned as much as they could.

Although all of it had come from Zhang Lexuan's verbal account, Xian Lin'er had immediately decided to come protect him after hearing it. In her eyes, whether it was his martial souls or soul skills in the future, he was the person best suited to their Soul Tool Department.

A mental-type soul master whose Spiritual Detection could grasp everything within a radius of 120 meters-with those conditions combined, no matter how she looked at it, he seemed born to make his living as a soul engineer.

"Lin'er, you just said it yourself: his first martial soul. He still has a second martial soul that hasn't awakened. A genius with twin martial souls-how could someone like that become a soul engineer? That would be wasting his talent." Yan Shaozhe really did not want to argue. He had done many rotten things in his youth, and he already felt guilty whenever he faced Xian Lin'er.

But this was a genius with twin martial souls, after all. Besides, he had secretly examined Huo Yuhao's physical condition on the way.

With how strong his body was, many ordinary Soul Elders truly could not compare. Neither his meridians nor the density of his soul power resembled what a Soul Grandmaster who had only just reached rank 20 should possess.

Moreover, he had a mental attribute. In theory, his physique should have been a little weaker than that of an ordinary soul master. His attribute's specialty meant that spiritual power was where he excelled.

Yet Huo Yuhao still possessed such a physique under those circumstances. That showed how strong his spiritual power was.

Or rather, how powerful would the second martial soul awakening under these circumstances be?

When they learned of this situation, countless possibilities had crossed their minds. The only possibility was that Huo Yuhao's original physique could not withstand the strength of his second martial soul, so it had gone dormant. Only once Huo Yuhao could bear it would it begin to awaken.

No matter how he looked at it, such a promising youngster was a rare genius seen once in a thousand years. As the dean of the Martial Soul Department of the Shrek Outer Court, he could not give up because of his personal feelings.

"Why? Just because your Martial Soul Department is the best on the continent? Even now, our Soul Tool Department isn't allowed to compete? How do you know this child can't distinguish himself in our Soul Tool Department?" Xian Lin'er clearly had no intention of giving up and questioned him coldly.

"Ah, there's no point arguing with me now, Lin'er. He hasn't even joined Shrek yet. Once he enters Shrek, shall we let him choose whichever department he wants?" Yan Shaozhe sighed. He truly did not want to argue with Xian Lin'er and thought he would stall for as long as he could. Besides, in his view, once Huo Yuhao entered Shrek, he would understand that, with his talent, studying soul tools would only be a waste of his gifts.

"You said it yourself. Until then, don't play any more tricks. If I catch you, I swear I'll fight you to the death," Xian Lin'er said. She also knew there was little point arguing with Yan Shaozhe now. Huo Yuhao was not a student at their academy.

But given his relationship with Zhang Lexuan and the others, they did not think Huo Yuhao would pass up enrolling in the future.

"Of course." Yan Shaozhe agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao had no idea that the two outer court deans from Shrek had just argued over which department he would belong to. He cast his gaze over the vast white land in the distance, benefiting from the power of destiny within him.

Moreover, perhaps because he had used the Eye of Destiny too often to suppress his cultivation earlier, Huo Yuhao could now even glimpse some situations that might arise next through destiny without using his martial soul. In other words, he could see the fortune and misfortune along the way, which also counted as a slight glimpse into the future.

For instance, upon the otherwise boundless white land, he could see the fortune and misfortune awaiting them on their journey. There was an immense opportunity, but there was danger as well!

Although the feeling was very vague, it seemed this martial soul awakening would not be as simple as he had imagined.

Huo Yuhao slowly withdrew his gaze. Just then, Strawberry's voice suddenly sounded beside him. "Are you sensing that special power still calling to you?"

"I was just thinking about the situation we'll face in the Far North. I heard that the Far North has changed a great deal over the past year or so," Huo Yuhao said.

Strawberry nodded. "Naturally. Every faction has sent people into the Far North. Every one of them is determined to obtain that legendary divine seat, yet none can do anything about it.

"I heard that in the first six months after the news was announced, countless factions went there, including Shrek. During that time, quite a few people tried to approach the divine seat, but every last one of them was frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold currents it released, beyond saving. Even those who tried to rescue them could not escape the same fate.

"Later, they gradually discovered that ice-attribute soul masters had some resistance to those cold currents. Cultivating nearby also increased their cultivation speed, and the longer they cultivated, the closer they could get to the divine seat.

"Right now, you could say every faction is trying to recruit ice-attribute soul masters. Some have even begun resorting to any means necessary to win them over."

"Doesn't that put me in danger? My second martial soul has the ice attribute too." Huo Yuhao had not expected ice-attribute soul masters to be so sought after now.

"Wait until your martial soul awakens before saying that. Besides, don't worry. With us protecting you, who would dare touch you?" As Strawberry spoke, she gave Huo Yuhao a knock on the head, telling him not to let his imagination run wild.

"Then I'll be counting on you all, Sister Strawberry." Huo Yuhao smiled.

Things had already reached this point. Having come this far, turning back the way they had come was impossible.

Once Zhang Lexuan finished recovering, Huo Yuhao and the others set out again.

"The Far North is just ahead. Wrap yourself up properly." As Xian Lin'er instructed him, she handed Huo Yuhao a fiery-red cloak clearly made from some kind of soul beast hide.

Huo Yuhao knew it was made from the fur of a soul beast called a Crimson Flame Tiger. Judging by the feel, it should have been a thousand-year Crimson Flame Tiger. Its fur provided exceptional warmth, and its hair remained a source of heat for many years after death, warding off the cold.

Wearing this thing in summer could roast someone to death, but in a freezing place like the Far North, it was an excellent garment for keeping warm.

They were lucky. At that moment, there was no snow falling anywhere in the northwest, or at least none within several hundred kilometers. The group flew straight into that world blanketed in white snow.

Perhaps because they were on the outermost fringes, the wind was not particularly strong, but there was no shortage of icy snow. In fact, because of the extreme cold, the snow no longer looked soft, instead giving an impression of hardness. The wind sweeping over the ground stirred up a bone-piercing white mist, while the sky was a blanket of gray that blocked the falling sunlight.

Because they were flying, Huo Yuhao had an extremely broad view. At a glance, he could not tell how far he could see, but most of what met his eyes was white and pale blue.

"Yuhao has entered the Far North. Go meet him. He can't get away easily right now." The moment Huo Yuhao entered the Far North, Huo Yun passed the news to Di Tian.

"Understood." Di Tian agreed, then turned to find the Titan Snow Demon King. "Titan Snow Demon King, I'd like your help with something."

"What is it? Just say the word. If it's within my power, I'll definitely help." Although the Titan Snow Demon King did not know what help Di Tian, the Beast God, wanted from him, Di Tian had helped them guard the Far North for so long. His business was their business. If he could help, he would, even at the cost of his life.

"Help me put on a show and hold a few people up. I need to bring one of them out. As for him..."

Before Di Tian could finish speaking, a melodious female voice came from the distance. "Di Tian, Di Tian! Little Yuhao is here! Come meet him with me." "Di Tian, Di Tian! Little Yuhao is here! Come meet him with me."

Di Tian turned to look and saw the Emperor Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, running over at a brisk pace. Seeing her, Di Tian suddenly remembered something. "Go with the Auspicious Beast. She knows who he is and where he is."

The Emperor Auspicious Beast possessed the Eye of Destiny, which meant the power of destiny, and Huo Yuhao had it as well. In other words, as long as Huo Yuhao reached somewhere near the Auspicious Beast, she could clearly sense his location.

"All right." The Titan Snow Demon King nodded.

As Huo Yuhao's party of five ventured more than a thousand kilometers into the Far North, even Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er had to grow vigilant and lower their flying altitude.

The deeper they went, the crueler the world seemed to become. Bone-piercing icy winds constantly swept across the land and sky. The snow falling from the gray sky had already taken the form of ice pellets, and all of it obscured their vision.

In the distance, wind blotted out the sky like a sandstorm. Ice pellets shot everywhere like arrows, and some even gathered into tornadoes that spiraled into the sky.

Anyone below the level of a Titled Douluo would most likely be finished if they faced those tornadoes.

Here, the wind seemed like a wall blocking all invading enemies, as terrifying as a soul skill being unleashed without end.

This was also one reason the Far North was called a land of certain death. Here, even without anyone controlling them, such utterly terrifying tornadoes could spring up at any moment.

"Careful, Yuhao. A big fellow is coming," Huo Yun warned in Huo Yuhao's mind ahead of time.

Huo Yuhao had only just reacted when the earth suddenly began to shake.

Avalanches burst from countless snowy peaks, and large numbers of soul beasts seemed to sense something as they began fleeing at full speed.

The already immensely powerful blizzard around them grew even more terrifying at that moment. Even Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er felt tremendous pressure, and their expressions changed slightly.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er swiftly stopped. Frowning, they looked around while bringing Huo Yuhao, Strawberry, and Zhang Lexuan onto a snowy peak a little over a hundred meters tall.

"You, including Lexuan and the others, stay here." Yan Shaozhe only had time to give that single instruction before rising into the air with Xian Lin'er.

"What's that?" Strawberry seemed to discover something just then, her pupils contracting.

Huo Yuhao looked in the direction of her voice, and the corners of his mouth twitched as well. Only one thought remained in his mind: So big.

At a glance, less than a thousand meters from their snowy peak, a colossal creature as tall as the peak beneath their feet slowly emerged.

The creature's form was actually very similar to a human's.

Its arms were long, and its entire body was covered in long, snow-white hair. Its forehead had many wrinkles, its skin was bluish-gray, and two enormous tusks protruded from the corners of its mouth. Raging snow swirled around it, and every time he took a step, the earth let out an indescribable groan.

On his shoulder, a rose-gold flame shone like a bright lamp, illuminating the surroundings.

That made the sight feel very strange. Did such a colossal creature need lamplight to see?

With an existence like this, there was no need even to mention what he looked like. His sheer size was already extraordinarily terrifying.

Most of the snowy peaks in this area were a little over a hundred meters tall, and this colossal creature happened to stand level with most of them.

In other words, the colossal creature before them was, at the very least, over a hundred meters tall.

"The Titan Snow Demon King." Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er immediately recognized this member of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North. Without any hesitation, they moved swiftly, snatching up Huo Yuhao, Strawberry, and Zhang Lexuan as they prepared to flee into the distance.

Although there were only two of them, working together in this environment, they could absolutely contend with the Titan Snow Demon King. But the soul beasts of the Far North were unusually united now. If they fought him, the commotion would definitely draw over all the other soul beasts in the Far North.

If they were surrounded, they would be in trouble.

"Stop! You think you can run after doing something wrong? It won't be that easy!" A melodious female voice rang out from the Titan Snow Demon King's shoulder, and a powerful wave of spiritual power surged straight toward Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er.

Having reached the Titled Douluo level-and particularly since Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er were both rank-95 Super Douluos-their spiritual perception was already strong. At the sight of this, they immediately mobilized their spiritual power to resist.

There's more than one ferocious beast, Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er thought. Judging by that spiritual power alone, whoever was with the Titan Snow Demon King was no ordinary soul beast.

At that moment, the Titan Snow Demon King immediately erupted with astonishing killing intent, an enraged roar pouring from his mouth.

Then his enormous body began to move. Despite his immense size, he ran with extraordinary lightness, and even the trembling of the ground disappeared.

A closer look revealed that the wind and snow were actually carrying him along.

The distance between them had only been about a thousand meters. Given the Titan Snow Demon King's height, he reached them in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it! Lexuan, take them and go!" Sensing that terrifying killing intent, Yan Shaozhe roared. A phoenix's cry suddenly rang out beside him. The next moment, a Golden Phoenix took shape, and boundless radiance erupted as she spread her wings.

Golden light flashed. The terrifying power of light instantly dissolved the power of ice and snow pressing toward them. Glittering streams of golden light filled the sky, seeming to form a protective barrier.

By then, the Titan Snow Demon King had raised his fist. That enormous, hill-sized fist carried raging icy winds as it slammed into the glittering streams of golden light.
