Chapter 143: Eternal Life?
"Don't worry, Uncle Yue, Uncle Gui, leave this matter to me. Have you forgotten why we came to such great lengths to reach this place?" Hu Bai said indifferently.
"You must be the Snow Empress, the number one of the Extreme North's Three Great Heavenly Kings, right?" Hu Bai said, looking at the Snow Empress floating in the air.
The Snow Empress looked at Hu Bai, this child, with some surprise: "Oh? I didn't expect that someone in the Human World would know my name—and even know that there are Three Great Heavenly Kings in the Extreme North?"
In the Snow Empress's impression, there were few Human Soul Masters who entered the core area of the Extreme North. Unless they possessed the strength of a Titled Douluo, in this harsh environment, once their soul power was exhausted, only death awaited them.
Unless the opponent's Martial Soul was of ice or fire attribute, having a certain resistance to this icy, snowy world, otherwise they would have to continuously consume soul power to maintain their body temperature.
"I have naturally heard of the reputation of the Extreme North's Three Great Heavenly Kings. Don't you want to ask us why we went to such great lengths to come to Ice God Canyon? Normal people shouldn't know about this place's existence, right?"
The Snow Empress frowned: "Then tell me, why do you know of this place?"
As Hu Bai said this, the Snow Empress was indeed a little curious. And only then did she notice the colorful pattern on Hu Bai's forehead, and the 100% affinity Hu Bai exuded for the Extreme North's environment!
With her cultivation, it was not difficult to see that the surrounding ice and snow elements were actively protecting Hu Bai, as if they wanted to fight against her—the natural spirit of ice and snow—for him!
Who exactly is the spirit of this Extreme North?
And Hu Bai also admitted: "I am currently undergoing the Seven Element Gods' assessment. Their second assessment for me is to come here, gain the Ice God's favor, and integrate the Ice God's assessment with the Seven Element Gods' assessment."
"What did you say?!"
The Snow Empress was a little shocked: "You obtained a God's assessment? How do you prove it?"
Hu Bai smiled: "Everyone around me can prove it for me. Of course, perhaps you don't believe humans, but you should believe him."
As he finished speaking, Hu Bai forcefully pulled Tianmeng Iceworm out of the Spiritual Sea.
Tianmeng Iceworm: …
The Tianmeng Iceworm looked at the Snow Empress with some fear, his face full of embarrassment: "Ahem, Snow Empress, what he said is indeed true. This time we came to the Extreme North. Besides wanting to obtain the Ice God's Legacy, we also plan to acquire a second Martial Soul position for him."
The Snow Empress looked at Tianmeng with slightly cold eyes: "So it's you, this big bug. When Ice Empress was chasing you back then, you ran away, and then came to me to complain. But your cultivation is a million-year cultivation? How is this possible!"
The Snow Empress was once again shocked by the aura emanating from Tianmeng Iceworm. Although Tianmeng felt very weak to her, this was indeed a genuine million-year cultivation!
"Quickly tell me! How did you manage to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation and step into the threshold of million-year cultivation? And with the talent of your Iceworm clan, it's difficult to even reach ten-thousand-year cultivation, let alone a million years!"
Tianmeng Iceworm chuckled: "Actually, when I was escaping from Bingbing's pursuit, I accidentally fell into a cave. There were a lot of Manifold Mysterious Ice Essences in that cave. I ate and slept, slept and ate, and my cultivation reached a million years. As for the Heavenly Tribulation, I don't know why it didn't descend. Maybe it's because of my racial limitations. Even if I reach a million-year cultivation, my strength is not even as good as an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, so that's why I avoided the Heavenly Tribulation."
Speaking of this, even Tianmeng Iceworm, with his thick skin, blushed slightly.
Even the Heavenly Tribulation looked down on him, which was indeed a bit embarrassing.
But this was also his good fortune; otherwise, how could he have lasted until a million-year cultivation?
Upon hearing this, the Snow Empress also showed a hint of subtle envy and jealousy on her face.
How many Manifold Mysterious Ice Essences would it take to bring Tianmeng Iceworm's cultivation to a million years!
If she could obtain some Manifold Mysterious Ice Essences, the seventy-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation in the future would be easier to overcome.
According to her estimation, in less than ten thousand years, the seventy-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation would descend.
And at that time, she would need to condense the Yin and Yang Twin Soul Cores to have the confidence to overcome this Heavenly Tribulation.
But condensing these Yin and Yang Twin Soul Cores is no simple task!
Whenever she thought of this, a cloud of gloom and worry about the future appeared on the Snow Empress's face.
Just then, another powerful aura emanated from not far away, and Tianmeng was instantly startled: "This… this is Bingbing's aura!"
"Snow Empress, Snow Empress, what happened here? Why did such a powerful aura erupt?"
An equally cold aura approached, carrying a hint of worry.
Ice Empress!
Yue Guan and Gui Mei were nearly numb, looking at this half-human, half-scorpion girl—another Fierce Beast!
Although they had both advanced to Super Douluo, their soul rings were not advantageous. Their Bipolar Static Domain could at most trap a level 98 powerhouse.
The crucial point was, even if they trapped a level 98 powerhouse, with all their soul power exhausted, they could only control them for at most one minute!
This was also because, after consuming Immortal Herbs, the compatibility of their Martial Souls increased from 50% to 60%!
If their ninth soul ring were a red hundred-thousand-year, perhaps they could control a level 99 Ultimate Douluo, but unfortunately, they were not!
And if this Snow Empress truly was the leader of the Extreme North's Three Great Heavenly Kings, their Martial Soul Fusion skill would probably be broken instantly.
Even if the High Priest came, without using Angel God's divine power, he would only be able to draw with the opponent, right?
The two secretly estimated the strength gap in their hearts.
When the Ice Empress arrived, she immediately spotted Tianmeng Iceworm floating in mid-air and gritted her silver teeth: "Good, Tianmeng Iceworm, you actually appeared here. Why don't you come and become my food?"
With that, the Ice Empress was about to attack him, but was stopped by the Snow Empress.
The Snow Empress explained the situation, and only then did the Ice Empress look at the child in the white robe with surprise.
"You really obtained God's test?"
Tianmeng Iceworm hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Bingbing, do you want to become Xiao Bai's second Martial Soul? This way, when Xiao Bai passes all the tests, you can also ascend to the God Realm together and gain eternal life."
Eternal life?
This word immediately caught the attention of both the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress.
If Hu Bai had not obtained a God's Legacy, they would not have believed Tianmeng Iceworm's nonsense. After all, they still had about ten thousand years of lifespan, while humans at most had a few hundred years. What if it failed?
