"Cough, cough, cough~"
Hearing Snow Empress's words, Lord Bai Luo, who was drinking tea, immediately choked.
"Pop!"
Fortunately, there was Peng Peng, the thoughtful little cotton jacket, patting her old father's back.
About being a pet.
Although what she said was indeed correct.
But Bai Luo really wanted to say, as long as Snow Empress wanted, he would immediately promote her to the position of favored concubine.
Ice Empress: What about me?
Bai Luo: You continue to be a pet!
Ice Empress: (╯‵□)╯︵┻~━┻
"Are you two treating me—like an idiot?"
Frey didn't believe Snow Empress's words at all: "With your power, even among monsters, you are enough—to rival a Demon Lord Seed."
Snow Empress's power indeed gave her the qualification to call herself a Demon Lord Seed.
It's still that saying.
Outsiders simply couldn't distinguish between a Demon Lord Seed and a Demon Lord Seed.
As long as Snow Empress stepped forward and occupied a territory to establish a country, she could be regarded as a Demon Lord Seed by humans.
Of course, such a Demon Lord Seed was often the kind of existence that would be subjugated by human heroes in history.
"Why debase yourself like this?"
Frey could feel the threat posed by Snow Empress.
This woman was very strong, her strength was absolutely no less than Artoria, who had just fought her.
As for Snow Empress's self-introduction.
Frey only took it as her liking Bai Luo, and trying to elevate her man's status through self-deprecation.
After all, love-struck creatures truly have no logic to speak of.
"Ignorant!"
Snow Empress didn't want to answer Frey.
She had no idea where the two girls' power came from.
Without Bai Luo.
Snow Empress would still be in Douluo Continent, manipulated at will like a chess piece.
Artoria would be even more submerged in the palm of the Counter Force, never able to transcend for all eternity.
"You first, or me first?"
Artoria: "Of course, I don't mind going together with you."
She was a knight, true, but this wasn't an arena.
On the battlefield, isn't it natural to fight against multiple opponents?
"Help me block for a moment."
"It's too small here, I need to expand my Great Nature so we can fight freely."
Snow Empress's Great Nature was originally just infecting the external environment, transforming it as she pleased.
But, after Bai Luo obtained the Inherent Barrier of the Type-Moon World, Snow Empress also benefited from it.
Now, Great Nature was no longer just a simple Unique Skill.
Instead, it should be called, Inherent Barrier · Great Nature!
"Dream on!"
Frey didn't know what Snow Empress was going to do, but she would never let her succeed.
"I won't let you go and hinder Snow Empress."
Artoria intercepted with her sword, once again engaging Frey in a clash of swordsmanship and spatial magic.
"Swish swish swish!"
However, this time, Artoria only attacked a few times before her rhythm was disrupted by crystal-like spatial prisms suddenly growing out of the void.
"Hmm?"
Because she was high in the sky, Artoria not only had to defend herself but also pay attention to what was above her head and below her feet.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Constantly swinging her Holy Sword, Artoria shattered the translucent spatial prisms.
This was a more advanced spatial magic, similar to Cang Ying's Spatial String Manipulation.
It utilized the nature of space, transforming it from formless to tangible.
It was similar to the relationship between water vapor, water, and ice.
It caused the previously invisible and untouchable spatial elements to condense, becoming incredibly hard, defense-ignoring, and forcefully destructive prismatic spears.
Unfortunately, even though Frey's spatial prism attacks were incredibly tricky, they still couldn't break through Artoria's defense.
She had no chance of getting past Artoria to interfere with Snow Empress.
Possessing intuition comparable to Future Sight, unless the opponent had a Unique Skill similar to War God or Sword Saint.
Otherwise, no one could suppress Artoria in close combat!
"It has begun..."
And just as neither side could do anything to the other, Snow Empress's voice calmly drifted over.
"Rumble!"
The next moment, surging magic essence transformed into a fierce wind, enveloping the entire Tengu Sacred Mountain.
Light screens rose from all directions, then divided into four sections in an X-shape.
"What is this?!"
Queen Frey, Artoria, and even Bai Luo looked at the scene unfolding before them with astonishment.
Tender green sprouts emerged from the soil, willow trees drooped their green strands, gently brushing the lake's surface, and the lake water, like a mirror, reflected the newly awakened world.
Peach blossoms vied for beauty, blooming in profusion, forming clusters of red clouds, their fragrance wafting everywhere.
This was the beginning of the four seasons, symbolizing the spring when all things revive.
··· ······ ···
"What's going on?"
As the spring breeze caressed their faces, the Tengu looked at the world, which had suddenly shifted between day and night, feeling utterly shocked.
But it wasn't over yet!
A golden scorching sun hung high in the sky, making everyone, who was already bewildered by the shifting stars, feel the sunlight even more dazzling.
The chirping of cicadas sounded like the prelude to summer.
In the lotus pond, lotus leaves stretched out, lotus flowers stood tall and graceful, and dragonflies skimmed the water, a scene full of vitality.
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, a summer rain accompanied by thunder descended abruptly.
Raindrops as big as beans hit the banana leaves, making crisp sounds, bringing a hint of coolness to the hot earth.
Next, there would be the bleak golden autumn, and the cruel white snow.
.. ..... ....
The changing of the four seasons, at the same moment, in the same world, filled Frey's vision.
"To be able to achieve this level?!"
Frey was horrified by Snow Empress's grand gesture.
And she had only seen such a thing from one person.
That was Guy, the Dark Emperor, the leader of the Ten Demon Lord Seeds!
Possessing the ability to create different realms, he could create independent space-times to serve as battlegrounds for monsters.
But!
The Great Nature before her was clearly different from the alternate space Guy created.
The rules, magic elements, matter, and life here were all truly existent.
"Who on earth are you?"
Frey was truly startled by Snow Empress's move.
She was a Demon Lord Seed, and her knowledge was far beyond what others could compare to.
Snow Empress's ability, setting aside its power, its all-encompassing depth alone was enough to make her associate it with many things.
For example, did this ability of hers have further potential?
Undoubtedly, the answer was yes.
Since such an existence was born in the Cardinal World, it would definitely not be left alone.
Therefore, Snow Empress could definitely continue to grow stronger.
But what would Snow Empress, who was already a Demon Lord Seed, become if she advanced further?
'Ultimate Skill...'
Frey knew that True Demon Lords possessed powerful authorities called Ultimate Skills.
Great Nature, taken a step further, would be the King of Nature!
A Demon Lord Seed who governs nature, including all elements like earth, water, wind, and fire, and controls the rotation of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and day and night... Four.
