"Slap in the face...."

After reading the furious message left by Bone Douluo Gu Rong, Ling Bai sighed.

"I guess I'm sick. I can't hold it in any longer. The Seven-Killing Sword Technique and Bone Dragon Transformation have two successors, and both are me..."

One must fulfill the wishes of those who give them something. Ling Bai raised his right hand to his face, and with a loud slap, his left hand struck his right. The crisp sound echoed in the small room.

"Senior Bone Douluo, your successor has defeated the successor of Sword Douluo. Thank you for your gift."

After a small joke with Bone Douluo, Ling Bai's smile faded, and he bowed deeply. He then took the Bone Dragon Transformation and left. With his current abilities, he was far from being able to control the three-level bone dragons. Mastering Bone Douluo's lifetime achievement, the Bone Dragon Transformation, would surely solve his immediate problem. "Hm?"

In the basement of the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower, Ning Fengya looked puzzled. After the World Treasure House was activated, the head of the sect's soul would establish a mental connection with it, sensing the dynamics of each treasure at all times. A second ago, she discovered that the Bone Dragon Transformation had been taken.

"What does Xiao Bai need it for?"

Ning Fengya was baffled. Last time, he took the Seven-Killing Sword Technique because the Holy Angel Sword matched the sword technique. The Bone Dragon Transformation was specifically for bone dragons and seemed to have nothing to do with Ling Bai's two soul beasts.

"Fine, fine, fine. This kid is hiding secrets again."

Having watched him grow up, Ning Fengya was very familiar with Ling Bai's personality. She didn't believe he would do something without reason; he must have found or will find a bone dragon!

At this moment, Ling Bai slowly walked out of the World Treasure House and saw Ning Fengya, whose lips were slightly curled, and her face was written with "there's only one truth." He said:

"Aunt Ya, I've taken care of it."

"Good."

Ning Fengya closed the spatial door of the World Treasure House, cleared her throat, and asked Ling Bai:

"Xiao Bai, the Ultimate North is extremely dangerous. The average strength surpasses that of the Star Dou Great Forest's spirit beasts. The harsh ice and snow environment and the mysterious Catastrophic Snow Demon... This surveillance mission lives up to its red-level name. Let Xie Qin accompany you."

"Fengya, are you abandoning me?"

A head suddenly emerged from the shadows, eyes misty and voice mournful.

Ning Fengya clenched her fists, veins popping on her smooth forehead as she gritted her teeth:

"Get lost before I get angry!"

"Sure, sis."

Shadow Dragon Douluo Xie Qin instantly complied, retracting his head faster than he had extended it.

Ling Bai couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. Shadow Dragon Douluo Xie Qin loved to pop up and act mischievously, finding comfort in getting scolded, much like a middle school boy trying to catch the attention of his crush by secretly pulling her ponytail. He was a straight man who wouldn't even be considered in Ning Fengya's third marriage!

"No need, Aunt Ya. I'll go alone. You and Uncle Xie can't always help me."

"Alright, I've prepared something for you to deal with the harsh environment in the Ultimate North."

Ning Fengya handed Ling Bai a storage soul conductor. Ling Bai took it, thanked her, and immediately set off.

At the speed of the Six-Winged Angel, even without going all out, Ling Bai reached Dragon City in just a day and a half. Looking into the distance, he could vaguely see the grand outline of a vast city, its brilliant lights adding to its awe-inspiring presence.

Dragon City is the closest human city to the Ultimate North. Soul masters entering the Ultimate North to hunt spirit beasts often resupply here, gradually making it the most famous city in the northern part of the Tianhun Empire.

Ling Bai used the Thousand Charm Demon's ability to mimic the appearance of the evil soul master Ning Bai, with black hair and black eyes, and wearing a coat made from the Ten- Thousand-Year Flame Lion King's fur, he smoothly passed through the Dragon City guards.

"Aunt Ya is really thoughtful..."

The storage soul conductor contained a complete set of thick clothes and pants from a ten- thousand-year-old fire spirit beast, dyed white to blend with the Ultimate North environment. After Ling Bai put them on, a warm, cozy heat spread through his body, making the low temperatures near the Ultimate North completely ineffective.

A Catastrophic Snow Demon, with a thirty-thousand-year cultivation, had been terrorizing villages near Dragon City, destroying farmland and houses, causing great suffering to the villagers. Ling Bai planned to find an inn to rest for the night and investigate the affected villages the next day.

He casually chose an inn, booked a room, and ordered food, then sat down to wait for Dragon City's specialty dishes.

At a table a few seats away, a group of young men and women, all around fifteen or sixteen years old, gathered. The most striking were a girl with long pink hair and a boy with short blue-purple hair. The girl was pounding the table and shouting at the boy:

"Hey, Yu Tianlong, have you heard about the recent Catastrophic Snow Demon incidents?"

"Yeah."

"I, Nan Qiuyu, went out alone yesterday to stake out the Catastrophic Snow Demon. I actually ran into it! I immediately charged at it and battled it for three hundred rounds, making the sky dark and the earth shake!"

"What happened then?" Yu Tianlong asked curiously.

Nan Qiuyu raised her cute little chin proudly and said, "It didn't hurt me a bit. I returned to Dragon City unscathed!"

Yu Tianlong pondered for a moment and tentatively said, "I understand, but it seems like a one-sided battle..."

"What do you mean! What do you mean!"

Nan Qiuyu's face turned black, and she stubbornly said, "The Catastrophic Snow Demon is a variant of the Titan Snow Demon, with a thirty-thousand-year cultivation far surpassing my Soul Master level. It's impressive that I managed to escape. You'd be on your knees!"

As she spoke, she subtly signaled to her fellow disciples, who understood and began to

support Young Master Nan Qiuyu.

"Sister Qiuyu is mighty and fierce!"

"Sister Qiuyu is invincible!"

"Earth Dragon Gate is the first in Dragon City!"

Yu Tianlong smiled bitterly, "Did you invite me to dinner just to show off that you escaped

from the Catastrophic Snow Demon?"

"Ha ha ha, accept your fate, Yu Tianlong!" Nan Qiuyu placed her hands on her hips and laughed wickedly, "The days of Sky Dragon Gate suppressing Earth Dragon Gate are over. The era of Earth Dragon Gate rising to power has arrived!"

"Sister, be quiet!!!"

Noticing the strange looks from the surrounding people, Yu Tianlong's toes curled into a three-bedroom apartment, wishing he could travel back an hour and give himself a good slap. Why did he agree to have dinner with Nan Qiuyu? Otherwise, he wouldn't be socially dead

now.

Actually, Yu Tianlong had misunderstood. The Sky Dragon Gate and Earth Dragon Gate had never bullied the weak; they often helped the villagers solve problems. Both sects had excellent reputations in Dragon City, and the looks from the inn's guests were filled with

friendly teasing.

But Yu Tianlong couldn't stay a moment longer and said hastily, "That Catastrophic Snow Demon attacked Moonlight Village today. My father personally dealt a severe blow to it. It barely escaped with its life back to the core area of the Ultimate North and will need many

years to recover."

"What?"

Nan Qiuyu's expression was shocked. They had lost, and Earth Dragon Gate had lost

completely!

At the same time, Ling Bai's hand paused as he picked up his chopsticks. The Catastrophic Snow Demon had run away!

Both were heartbroken, one written on the face, the other hidden in the heart. "The surveillance mission is to capture or kill the Catastrophic Snow Demon. It seems I'll have to chase it into the core of the Ultimate North..."

Initially, Ling Bai planned to wait in the villages where the Catastrophic Snow Demon often wreaked havoc. With the plan changed, he had to delve deeper into the Ultimate North!

The next morning, Ling Bai left Dragon City alone, heading straight for the Ultimate North against the icy, bone-chilling gale.

It was winter, an unsuitable time to enter the Ultimate North. The environment became even

harsher, and the temperature dropped even lower. Some spirit beasts living in the Ultimate North, lacking food, would venture out of the core area to the periphery, greatly increasing the chances of encountering powerful spirit beasts. If not for a sufficiently strong soul master or a well-equipped team, few would dare to enter the northern territory rashly.

"Spider Summon." Switching to his second soul beast, the Death Prison Spider Emperor, Ling Bai summoned

thousands of small magic spiders. The Ultimate North was even vaster than the Star Dou Great Forest. Due to the harsh and barren conditions, the area was sparsely populated with spirit beasts. But relying on Ling Bai alone would take ages to find the Catastrophic Snow Demon, so sending out the magic spiders was a time and effort-saving solution.

"Find a giant spirit beast, severely injured, weak in ice attributes, and emitting a disaster aura."

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

The magic spiders shivered from the cold upon emerging, adapting to the environment for a few seconds before dispersing. The small, purple-black spiders hid in the thick snow. Using the Spider Emperor's sense to avoid spirit beasts, Ling Bai advanced straight into the heart of the Ultimate North. Before long, he saw dazzling emerald green lights flashing in the sky, radiating a beautiful and brilliant glow. Ignoring the extreme climate, it was a

picturesque scene.

"The unique Polar Night Environment of the Ultimate North core..."

Ling Bai's vigilance was at its peak, with the Spider Emperor's sense operating at full power.

The most terrifying aspect of the Ultimate North was its overall strength, especially the number of ten-thousand-year spirit beasts in the core area. The harsh environment and the single attribute of spirit beasts meant few soul masters ventured deep to hunt. Therefore, as

long as the spirit beasts of the Ultimate North were powerful, they could smoothly cultivate

to ten-thousand years. "Realm of Death."

The spider web patterns flickered, and a layer of purple-black film quietly adhered to Ling

Bai's body. The ultra-low temperature in the core of the Ultimate North was beyond what the Ten-Thousand-Year Flame Lion King Fur could withstand, so he had to release the Death Prison Spider Emperor's innate Realm of Death to maintain his body temperature by killing

nearby ice elements.

He ate hard, frozen cornbread when hungry and swallowed a few mouthfuls of snow when

thirsty. After a few hours, just as Ling Bai was about to build an ice hut to rest, the magic spiders sent back an excited signal.

Shifting his vision to the spiders, he indeed saw a colossal creature over fifty meters tall, with

a green face and fangs, and features that, upon closer inspection, resembled a human. Unlike the Titan Snow Demon's white fur, the Catastrophic Snow Demon was pitch black, exuding an aura of disaster and misfortune. Legend had it that killing the Catastrophic Snow Demon would curse the slayer with endless misfortune.

At that moment, the Catastrophic Snow Demon lay on the snow, its body covered in charred marks from lightning, its flesh exposed in a pitiful state. Fortunately, the blood had coagulated in the ultra-low temperature, barely saving its life. Suddenly, the Catastrophic Snow Demon rolled up and got to its feet. It had a natural soul skill called Disaster Premonition, sensing impending doom. The activation of Disaster Premonition meant death was near!

The Catastrophic Snow Demon refused to sit and wait for death. Enduring the pain, it ran with

its powerful legs, each step covering a hundred meters. It ran at full speed for an entire hour toward the center of the Ultimate North core, feeling safe and sitting down to rest.

"Creak!"

"Roar?"

It seemed to have sat on something. The next second, a loud explosion echoed, and a blood-

red mushroom cloud appeared in the Ultimate North.

The Catastrophic Snow Demon was blown to pieces, its broken head rolling to Ling Bai's feet.

Ling Bai picked it up and took it back to Shrek Academy to complete his mission, gazing at the metal storm hidden within the blood-red mushroom cloud, puzzled: "Who set up a soul conductor trap in the Ultimate North? This thing is at least level seven.

What a good day to easily complete a red-level surveillance mission..."

Suddenly, Ling Bai looked up at the sky, where a woman resembling a human was suspended

beneath the dazzling emerald green aurora.

"Who's that?"

In a certain area of the Ultimate North core, a triangular purple light barrier blocked the wind

and snow. Two figures sat on the ground, facing each other, looking bored.

The middle-aged man with a long face and a hooked nose suddenly trembled and nudged the

mountain-like man beside him, saying, "Xiong Mo, my level seven soul conductor landmine was triggered by a spirit beast."

Xiong Mo glanced at him and said speechlessly, "Xu Cong, are you stupid? It's normal for

spirit beasts to appear in a spirit beast gathering place."

Xu Cong nodded, "You're right..."

"We've been in the core of the Ultimate North for over a month. When will the great

opportunity you mentioned arrive?" Xiong Mo stood up and asked, his muscular build exuding an overwhelming aura despite his average height.

"Patience."

Xu Cong patted Xiong Mo's shoulder and pointed to a snowy mountain five hundred meters

away, "There's a Snow Mountain Lotus Pool ahead. Judging by the aura, there must be a ten- thousand-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Lotus inside!"

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I'll go and snatch it!"

Seeing Xiong Mo roll up his sleeves and charge forward, Xu Cong quickly pulled him back, scolding him:

"Idiot, do you only have muscles in your head?!"

Xu Cong threw a piece of metal at the snowy mountain, and in an instant, a sky-blue light

flashed, turning the metal into powder.

"Oh..." Xiong Mo's eyes widened.

"A barrier, set by a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast. I guess this lotus pool is the result of the spirit beast's painstaking efforts over thousands of years, and now it's time to harvest." Xu Cong's eyes flashed with a sinister light, "According to the Mingde Hall records, a ten- thousand-year-old Ice Heaven Snow Lotus has the miraculous effect of allowing a ten- thousand-year-old spirit beast to reincarnate as a human. The spirit beast knows it can't break through the great tribulation and is seeking another path to reincarnate and pursue the

path to divinity.

All we need to do is wait patiently for the great fortune to descend and seize the opportunity

to capture the ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast when it transforms!"

"Will it really work?" Xiong Mo was intimidated by the terrifying power of the barrier.

"You're an Adamantine Douluo, and don't forget my expertise as a Ninth-Rank Soul Artisan."

Xu Cong smiled confidently.

"Sealing..."

Xiong Mo pondered, then said, "But you just broke through to Ninth-Rank Soul Artisan, and you only have one level nine soul conductor, the God Ascension Platform..." "Level nine is level nine, regardless of when you break through. Your three empires don't

even have one! If it weren't for offending the Mingde Hall master and the Sun Moon Empire royal family, how could a prestigious Ninth-Rank Soul Artisan like me be reduced to worrying about money? As agreed, you contact the Starlight Auction House. Once I seal the ten- thousand-year-old spirit beast and sell the God Ascension Platform, we'll make at least a hundred million gold soul coins! Eighty percent for me, twenty for you, and we'll never have

to worry about money again!"

Money talks, and Xiong Mo couldn't help but laugh, "Hehehe, I'm from the Star Luo Empire

and have some connections. The Starlight Auction House is willing to establish a long-term

partnership with you and reduce the commission by half!

But, why did you offend the Sun Moon Empire royal family and the Mingde Hall master?"

"Don't even mention it!"

Xu Cong sighed, "Ten years ago, a woman of unparalleled beauty named Feng Yu appeared in Mingdu. She led a group of people to establish the Linglong Pavilion, gathering imperial nobles and soul artisans, gradually expanding her influence.

After two years, the Linglong Pavilion had firmly established itself. She began to deal in soulNôv(el)B\\jnn

conductors, selling them to the three empires for at least eight times the price in the Sun Moon Empire.

I was the chief researcher of the Mingde Hall, and she agreed to a fifty-fifty split, so I became

the intermediary, selling the soul conductors produced by the Mingde Hall.

But the truth came out. Jing Hongchen, that old fox, immediately dismissed me without any

regard for our past friendship and notified the royal family to ban any sect or academy from

accepting me.

During the time of selling soul conductors, I fell in love with Feng Yu and wanted to elope with her to the three empires. But Feng Yu said she was a money lover, and her greatest love

was gold soul coins. She would only consider marrying me if I brought her a hundred million gold soul coins."

"Brother Xu, even though I, Old Bear, have never married, I think she's just playing you." Xiong Mo said hesitantly.

"No, Feng Yu has her reasons!"

Xu Cong's spittle almost sprayed into Xiong Mo's mouth, "Feng Yu told me she had a wicked

older sister who bullied her, stole her candy, and money from a young age. As she grew older, the bullying worsened, and any slight dissatisfaction would result in beatings and scoldings,

eventually leading to her expulsion from the sect.

She wandered for years, hiding here and there, eventually ending up in the Sun Moon Empire

to seek peace. She started smuggling soul conductors, hoping to one day return as a holy

maiden and take revenge on her cruel and inhumane sister!

She's a little girl without a sense of security. If she likes gold soul coins, I'll give her gold soul

coins!

I'll support her!

I'll do everything for her!"

Xu Cong transformed into a brave warrior in love, his whole being burning with passion,

causing Xiong Mo to cover his mouth and whisper, "Love-struck fool, shut up! Something's coming."

The woman in the sky descended to the Snow Mountain Lotus Pool, her long white hair cascading down to her waist, her flawless features embodying the beauty of this snowy land.

"A human-form spirit beast... wait, a human-form spirit beast in the Ultimate North!?" (End of Chapter)
