"Snow Empress, what exactly happened? What was that pillar of light?"
Because the Ice Jade Scorpion's territory was vast, the Ice Emperor only saw the towering pillar of light from afar and did not sense the power of the Ice God like the Snow Emperor did.
"Bing'er, you're here. Wait for Xiaobai and Atai, then we'll talk together."
Hyotei agreed, and then unconsciously moved to Yuki's side, a slight smile playing on her lips.
Compared to that unknown celestial phenomenon, she still felt that the Snow Emperor was more important.
However, at this moment, the Snow Empress was immersed in the aura of the Ice God and did not pay much attention to the Ice Empress's little actions.
After a while.
A white giant bear several meters tall and a Titan giant a hundred meters tall arrived before the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress with a tremendous tremor.
The earth trembled, and the cracking of the ice immediately brought the engrossed Hyotei back to his senses.
These two rude fellows ruined the peaceful atmosphere between her and Yuki.
"Hey Artest, with your size, can't you transform into human form and fly over here?"
"Little Bai doesn't know how? You still don't know how?"
However, the Titan Snow Demon King had no interest in the Ice Emperor's questioning at the moment. After transforming into human form, he quickly walked to a spot not far from the Snow Emperor and stood still.
His once stiff face now showed excitement as he looked at Xue Di and asked eagerly.
"Snow Empress, do you know what the pillar of light was just now? I could feel the Ice God bloodline within me boiling."
"The strange phenomenon just now must be related to the Ice God!"
Upon hearing this, Hyotei and Shiro looked at Atai in shock, then turned to Yukito, wanting to find out the truth.
It should be noted that in the far north, the Ice God is the sole deity of countless ice-attribute soul beasts.
Neither the Dragon God of the Star Dou Great Forest nor the Sea God of the Endless Sea could shake this point in the slightest.
The Snow Empress had also snapped out of her daze at the Ice God and looked at the three people in front of her.
Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and Titan Snow Demon King are both the most powerful kings in the core area.
Ice Bear King Xiaobai is his adopted son.
This unexpected situation obviously couldn't be kept from these individuals.
Upon hearing Titan Snow Demon King's question, Snow Empress nodded, acknowledging the other party's guess.
“Indeed, I sensed the power of the Ice God within the pillar of light, and beneath this icy abyss, there is a high probability that the Ice God’s relics or legacy exist.”
After Xue Di finished speaking, the breathing of the two people and the bear all became rapid.
The legacy of the Ice God—this is a place that countless soul beasts from the far north yearn for.
However, after their initial excitement, Hyotei and Shiro both looked at Titan Snow Demon King with somewhat hostile eyes.
Hyotei won't compete with Yuki-tei for the throne for some reason, and Shiro won't compete with his godmother for the inheritance.
Only the Titan Snow Demon King might do something unpredictable.
Chapter 116 The Temple Beneath the Ice Abyss
After all, this guy once confessed his feelings to the Snow Empress, so he was incredibly bold. Although he was later severely injured by the Snow Empress and it took him a thousand years to recover.
Titan Snow Demon King saw the wary looks in Ice Emperor and Little White's eyes, and his excitement over the message from Ice God cooled down a bit.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? Do you think I'm the kind of beast who would stab someone in the back?"
Hyotei looked at Titan Snow Demon King and sneered disdainfully.
She still harbored resentment over the fact that the Titan Snow Demon King had confessed his love to the Snow Empress, and felt a strange anger whenever she saw him.
This was something she could only think about in her heart.
"That's hard to say. There's no soul beast in the entire far north that doesn't know that the Titan Snow Demon clan may be big, but their hearts are exceptionally sinister."
"Hyotei, you!"
The Ice Emperor's sarcastic remark immediately made Titan Snow Demon King's face turn red. His burly body bulged with muscles, and his bones crackled as they rubbed together.
Upon seeing this, Hyotei's body surged with emerald green soul light, and her beautiful eyes, like jade, and the magic patterns on both sides of her cheeks began to glow slightly.
"What, you want to fight? Fine, I'll take you on!"
The little polar bear, the Ice Bear King, also revealed a fierce glint in its eyes, its sharp claws constantly rubbing against the surface of the millennia-old ice.
After all, the relationship between the Icefield Bear and the Titan Snow Demon race is quite unfriendly, so he must make the most of this good opportunity.
This farce left Xue Di somewhat helpless, her clear and melodious voice echoing around her.
"Enough! Are you going to take action just because of one baseless guess I made?"
"Atai, withdraw your soul power, Bing'er, you too!"
Upon hearing Xue Di's words, the two exchanged a glance, snorted coldly, and simultaneously withdrew the surging soul power fluctuations from their bodies.
Only a hint of regret flashed in Xiaobai's eyes.
"I only sensed the aura of the Ice God's power within that previous pillar of light; I cannot confirm what lies beneath it."
"Since you all have so much energy, why don't we wait until later to talk about it?"
"If there really is an Ice God's legacy below, then it depends on who has better luck and can be chosen by that person."
Titan Snow Demon King quickly nodded in agreement. If the candidate were to be chosen by force now, he would have no chance at all.
Putting aside Xue Di's terrifying demigod strength, even Bing Di is not someone he can easily defeat.
Among those present, only Ice Bear King Xiaobai could be easily defeated, but since his backer was standing right next to them, they dared not move.
When the two humans and the bear followed Snow Empress to the edge of the dark ice abyss, Titan Snow Demon King looked at Snow Empress and asked.
"Are we just going to go down like this? If there's any residual power down there, we won't be able to stop it."
"If you're scared, just go home. The rest of the exploration can be left to the three of us."
Although Ice Emperor didn't fight Titan Snow Demon King because Snow Emperor stopped her, she could still exchange a few sarcastic remarks.
Titan Snow Demon King ignored Ice Empress and kept his gaze fixed on Snow Empress not far away.
After the pillar of light disappeared, the boiling Ice God bloodline in his body subsided and showed no further reaction.
So he looked at the strongest person present, hoping to get some hints.
The Snow Empress pondered for a moment, her beautiful icy blue eyes gazing down into the icy abyss. With a wave of her jade hand, a burst of soul power spread out.
Under the majesty and power of the Northern Emperor, the entire core ice plain began to tremble slightly.
After a moment, Xue Di looked at the two people and the bear and said, "There is no reaction, so there should be no residual divine power. Let's go down directly."
After speaking, Xue Di exchanged a glance with Bing Di, and then transformed into streams of light and flew towards the bottom of the Ice Abyss.
Xiao Bai naturally followed Xue Di and jumped down.
Seeing that the Ice and Snow Emperors were so decisive, the Titan Snow Demon King also took a deep breath, his soul power surged, and he leaped into the air.
A moment later, the three people and the bear, their souls surging, quietly descended into the icy abyss.
But as soon as they landed, they were overwhelmed by the ancient and magnificent temple in front of them.
Beneath the bottomless abyss, where not a ray of light could be seen, the ancient palace naturally emitted an icy blue glow, becoming the sole focal point.
Although there was no fluctuation of soul power or divine power, the will of the Ice God permeated every inch of the palace, causing the three people and one bear who landed in front of the palace gate to unconsciously lower their heads.
The Snow Empress was the first to adapt to the environment. She raised her head, adorned with an imperial crown, and fixed her gaze on the tightly closed gates of the Ice God Temple.
"Could this be the temple of the Ice God?"
The Ice Emperor's shocking voice came from beside the Snow Emperor, echoing far into the empty abyss and startling the Titan Snow Demon King and the Ice Bear King, who were bowing their heads.
At this moment, the Titan Snow Demon King raised his head, breathing rapidly, with icy blue light flashing in his eyes. This was an unusual phenomenon caused by the Ice God's bloodline boiling once again.
Feeling the natural affinity between his bloodline and the temple, Titan Snow Demon King unconsciously took two steps forward, but was immediately stopped by Little White's bear paw.
Titan Snow Demon King was taken aback, and immediately turned to look at Little White, who had a malicious look on his face.
At this point, Hyotei raised a question.
"The temple gates are not open. Does this mean the Ice God doesn't welcome us? Or are we not qualified?"
These words stunned the Titan Snow Demon King, who was already somewhat agitated.
After all, in the minds of the soul beasts in the far north, the Ice God is omnipotent and supreme.
The Ice Goddess, possessing such immense power, could not possibly be unaware of their arrival; therefore, the answer is obvious.
Despite the Ice Emperor's question, the Snow Empress's beautiful face showed no extra emotion. She glanced at the Titan Snow Demon King beside her, then lightly stepped to the palace gate.
With her hands outstretched, as white as jade, her soul core spun wildly within her body, and the surging, violent soul power immediately forced the two people and the bear behind her to take two steps back.
At this moment, the ultimate snow soul power at the demigod level was also transmitted towards the temple gate, and droplets of white fluorescence began to spread along the complex patterns on the temple gate.
"Does this work?"
Watching the Snow Empress continuously channeling her soul power towards the palace gate, the Titan Snow Demon King muttered in confusion.
With only a few of them around, the Titan Snow Demon King's voice naturally couldn't escape the ears of the Ice Emperor standing nearby.
Although she didn't know why Xue Di did this, out of her feelings for Xue Di, she would support her unconditionally no matter what.
So when Hyotei heard this muttering, she immediately mocked Titan Snow Demon King.
"Do you have any other ideas? How about I have Xue Di stop, and you give it a try?"
Upon being caught red-handed, Titan Snow Demon King's face immediately showed a hint of embarrassment.
How could he possibly have any other way? He just didn't quite understand Xue Di's actions and had a subconscious question.
However, while the two were bickering, the entire palace gate was suddenly covered with bright white patterns.
The four present heard a deep rumble that echoed throughout the Ice Abyss, and then the temple gates began to slowly open.
Chapter 117 The Stunning Ice Goddess
As the temple gates slowly opened, Ice Empress immediately stopped arguing with Titan Snow Demon King. With a light touch of her toes, her delicate body landed gracefully beside Snow Empress.
