Chapter 63 The Gaze of the Gods
Chapter 63 The Gaze of the Gods
After hearing what the Ice Emperor said, the Snow Emperor suddenly remembered the snow lotus that was rooted in her birthplace.
Snow lotuses are extremely difficult to awaken to intelligence.
Therefore, even if it possesses the purest essence of heaven and earth, it is impossible for it to break through the shackles of 100,000 years.
But that snow lotus actually did it.
Snow Empress once thought that the snow lotus was just another stroke of luck in her long life that would stimulate her strength to improve.
But looking back now, Xue Di discovered the most unusual thing.
The moment that snow lotus broke through its 100,000-year cultivation level, it transformed from the frozen soil into the smallest tender shoot, stubbornly breaking through the ice!
This is a vitality that has never appeared in the core of the far north in millions of years!
Unlike the reproduction of soul beasts.
This is just like the birth of the Snow Emperor herself.
This is a miracle of life born from the purest and most pristine laws of ice and snow in the world!
The pure ice and snow energy took shape as the Snow Emperor.
The pure essence of heaven and earth in the far north grows from the frozen soil and transforms into a snow lotus that lasts for 100,000 years.
Snow Emperor is never alone.
That snow lotus is a silent companion from the far north, from this icy world.
It was also a guiding light that helped her understand the path ahead.
The answer has already been buried in the birthplace of the Snow Emperor.
The far north has been waiting for the Snow Empress to understand that she was never the lonely ruler of the far north, but rather the hope that leads the icy plains toward rebirth.
Xue Di's fingertips trembled slightly, and for the first time, her sky-blue eyes showed an unprecedented ripple.
"Just like what Yuhao comprehended with the power of the Martial Ancestor," the Ice Emperor grasped the Snow Emperor's hand, "Ice and snow should never be the end, but rather the silence before spring returns and rain falls."
The Snow Emperor murmured to herself, "Desolate ice...desolate..."
She slowly raised her head and looked at the barren land that had remained unchanged since ancient times.
The Snow Emperor fell silent, closed her eyes, and earnestly began to feel the pulse of the far north.
There were no birdsong, no fragrance of flowers, only desolation.
The Snow Emperor floated up, the aura of the Supreme Ruler of the Far North surging on his body, resonating with the Far North.
In a daze, she saw the scene of the far northern soul beasts tenaciously surviving on the ice plains and heard their indomitable roars.
She heard it, she saw it, she felt the primal life rhythm hidden in the ice and snow of the far north!
Xue Di raised her finger, and a crystal-clear snowflake, as if reflecting the aurora borealis, appeared at her fingertip.
"I should never have been the embodiment of the cruel rules of the far north."
"I should be the purest form of life here."
Snowflakes swirl, and a pair of extremely gentle green pupils flash and disappear on them.
"What's wrong, Little Green?"
In the realm of gods, the God of Destruction, with his short, dark red hair, entered the room and looked at his wife, the Goddess of Life.
The Goddess of Life tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said softly, "I sensed a trace of life on Douluo Star."
"Douluo Star?"
Upon hearing the goddess of life's reply, the god of destruction frowned.
The goddess of life raised her finger, and a snowflake reflecting the aurora borealis appeared on it.
"Natural enlightenment and growth," she said, "it seems there's an interesting child out there."
The God of Destruction stroked his chin: "Speaking of Douluo Star, it seems the Sea God is on duty guarding it now, isn't he?"
"How did you sense the aura from Douluo Star?"
The Goddess of Life sighed: "A little over half a day ago, the Sea God suddenly fled from the central hub of the divine realm for unknown reasons."
"If the god of emotions hadn't discovered it, it would have caused a huge mess."
"At that time, you, good, and evil were not present, so I had to temporarily take charge of the central authority of the divine realm."
Upon hearing this, the God of Destruction's eyes flashed with a ruthless glint: "Dereliction of duty? This is no small matter!"
"Does this guy really think that just because he's taking over the central command of the God Realm, the God Realm is his!"
The goddess of life opened her mouth, but ultimately uttered no words.
Even though she was kind-hearted, she couldn't offer any explanation for the sea god this time.
Departing from the central authority of the divine realm is a grave mistake that could very well lead to chaos in the lower realms.
Just as the two god-kings of the divine realm were conversing, the Snow Empress slowly descended back to the ground.
Her aura remained icy, as if keeping everyone at arm's length.
However, Hyotei could clearly sense that Yuki-tei's aura was no longer as fierce.
The Snow Empress turned her gaze toward the far northern abyss.
She raised her hand, and large snowflakes rolled down.
"This snow has no name; if it must be named, it may be called Snow Reflecting the Heart of Heaven."
"So that snow lotus was the answer prepared for me by the far north."
Hyotei looked up and discovered that among the swirling snowflakes, each one reflected a snow lotus bud about to bloom!
"Snow Emperor!"
Hyotei exclaimed in shock, "You've mastered a new soul skill?!"
Xue Di shook her head slightly.
A slight smile played on her lips, revealing a beauty that could dazzle: "No, it's more like a renewed understanding of the power of ice and snow."
"Moreover, this isn't a soul skill; it's an inspiration I received from the far north."
"To fully master this power, I need to condense the Desolate Ice and the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core of the Snow Lotus.
"Only by combining these two forces can the barren ice be restored."
Ice Emperor suddenly looked at Huo Yuhao, who was absorbing a spirit ring, and exclaimed, "Doesn't that mean Yuhao was already at your finish line from the very beginning?!"
Snow Empress followed Ice Empress's gaze.
Huo Yuhao was surrounded by the dark aura of the Giant Spirit Dragon Elephant Soul Ring, and his aura rose at an astonishing speed.
It's clear that Huo Yuhao is nearing the end of absorbing this spirit ring.
"No, Yuhao's Desolate Ice is another path."
Hyotei was filled with doubt.
She felt that perhaps spending too much time with the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm had dulled her mind.
The Snow Emperor smiled and said, "Yuhao's desolate ice, from what you've described, is a reflection on the relationship between life and destruction."
"There is a great opportunity between life and death. Yuhao's journey is still very, very long."
"And my path," a snow lotus bloomed in the Snow Emperor's palm, "is the result of millions of years of waiting in the far north."
Hyotei nodded thoughtfully.
After all, this is the path of the Snow Emperor, not the Path of the Ice Emperor.
Whether it's a reflection on life and death or a response to waiting, the desolate ice is not suitable for Hyotei.
"Bingbing," Xue Di said, "you made the right choice to go with Yuhao back then."
"Sooner or later, you will learn from him how to move forward after your rebirth."
Hyotei responded with an "oh".
Just then, Huo Yuhao, who had been sitting cross-legged absorbing the spirit ring, stood up.
He approached the two Ice and Snow Emperors, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "I have lived up to your expectations and successfully absorbed the soul ring."
Following Huo Yuhao's example, Xue Di smiled and clasped her hands in return, saying, "I have lived up to Yuhao's expectations and successfully comprehended the Desolation."
Huo Yuhao exclaimed in surprise, "Senior Snow Empress, you've grasped the true meaning of the Desolate Ice so quickly?"
Xue Di responded: "It's not about understanding, but about rediscovering."
"Yuhao, I originally intended to give you a 100,000-year-old snow lotus, but now I'm sorry."
"It breaks free from constraints in the form of a plant, making it another ice and snow spirit of the far north."
"As compensation, I promise that in the future I will join forces with you to deal with the Evil Emperor, and even the Emperor Heaven."
"Senior Snow Empress, you flatter me," Huo Yuhao said. "Since that snow lotus is a gift from the far north, it should naturally be protected by you, Senior."
"Please forgive me, senior, for I cannot stay any longer. I need to return to the Body Sect immediately."
Ice Emperor returned to Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace.
Huo Yuhao immediately flapped his dragon wings and returned to Bai Ming and the other two's side, then they returned to the Body Sect together.
With their return, a murderous intent that soared to the heavens instantly filled the mountains where the Body Sect was located!
