Volume 1: Tian Meng Bing Can Chapter 39: The Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North (Part 2)

  He started anew, and Huo Yu Hao quickly headed north. Although the biting cold wind was no longer a threat, the gradually appearing ice and snow still restricted his speed. However, the benefits of spiritual probing became apparent at this time. Whenever he encountered unclear terrain, all he needed to do was use spiritual probing to take a look, and he could immediately start anew, advancing with good fortune and avoiding calamity.

  The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was rarely not sleeping, constantly guiding Hao Yu to change direction, and Hao Yu could vaguely feel that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to be releasing a spiritual force on his body. Compared to the terrifying original spiritual force of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, he himself was like a grain of sand in the ocean, and he didn't know what the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was exploring outside.

  In the blink of an eye, two more days had passed. Huo Yu Hao had already deeply entered the desolate and uninhabited extreme north. On the road, he also saw some soul beasts. But under the guidance of Tian Meng Bing Xian, not once did he encounter any existence that posed a threat to him.

  The snow on the ground was getting thicker and thicker, and when it had already exceeded his knees, Huo Yu Hao had to cut down trees to make two wooden boards tied to his feet, so that he could at least exert force better. When encountering a downhill slope, he could even slide for a while. It's also considered finding a pretty good method.

  In two days, his speed had slowed down a lot, but at least he had penetrated more than 400 miles into the extreme north. The frequency of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm changing direction was also getting faster and faster.

  "Quickly, crawl, lie down on the ground, and bury yourself in the snow. Don't move at all. Even if something touches your body, you can't move." Tian Meng's urgent voice suddenly rang out, startling Huo Yu Hao.

  Huo Yu Hao hastily crouched down, then lay prone in the thick snow, using three or two scoops to pile the snow beside him onto his own body. Then he held his breath.

  Just as he had done this less than ten times, suddenly, Huo Yu Hao's whole body couldn't help but tremble. Although his body was buried in the snow, his senses were still there! Relying on spiritual detection, he could still feel the situation that occurred within a certain range of the outside world.

  He felt an aura of unparalleled terror, and in the instant it appeared, the spiritual energy he had released was instantly shattered. Not even the physical form of the newcomer could be discerned.

  In Huo Yu's perception, the newcomer's body was enormous, and his breath was terrifying to the extreme. It seemed that just one blow of air could destroy him. Immediately afterwards, Huo Yu felt a heavy pressure on his back, ruthlessly pinning his body to the ground.

  He was originally holding his breath, but with this pressure, the air that had been stuck in his chest suddenly dissipated, and his entire body directly embedded into the mud deep in the ice and snow.

  But just as the crushing pressure appeared, Huo Yu Hao felt that his body seemed to have an extra layer of hard shell. Although he was trampled into the ground, it was only embedded, and apart from suffocation, he did not suffer any greater harm.

  If it weren't for the guidance of Tian Meng Bing Xian, Huo Yu Hao would have made some moves by now. But at this moment, he didn't dare to move a single bit, strongly enduring the suffocating pain.

  The huge pressure disappeared quickly. The terrifying breath also became farther and farther away. In his suffocating state, Huo Yu Hao only felt a burning sensation in his chest.

  But Tian Meng Bing Cang did not make a sound, he couldn't move, he could only endure. Otherwise, there might be a fatal disaster.

  After more than ten seconds had passed, that terrifying aura had completely disappeared, and Tian Meng Bingshen signaled for him to get up.

  Huō Yǔhào struggled to get up from the ground, taking big gulps of the cold air. Although his body wasn't afraid of the cold, the chill that entered his body still made him shiver violently, and he hurriedly slowed down his breathing rate. However, his chest continued to heave violently.

  Although he didn't see what had trampled him earlier, he could be sure that he had just walked through the gates of hell! The suddenly hardened shell was obviously a relic of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, otherwise, with just that one trample, he would probably have become a meat pie.

  After catching his breath for a while, he finally recovered a bit. When Huo Yu Hao stood up again, his face couldn't help but reveal a look of horror once more. Because he saw a series of gigantic footprints, and he himself was standing in one of them.

  Each footprint was over five meters long and more than two meters wide. The traces left by Huo Yu Hao were not even a third of the length of this footprint. It seemed that the huge footprints were heading far away.

  Huo Yu Hao is still a child after all. How can he not be afraid when faced with this situation?

  "Tianmeng Ge, just now... what was this thing? How could its footprints be so huge?"

  "Damn, it was close. This guy has spiritual attributes too and actually blocked my detection. Luckily, my spiritual power is far superior to his, so I still detected him when he got close enough. You little brat's luck is really good, running into one of the three great heavenly kings of the Extreme North, Titan Snow Demon King. Good thing this guy was still deceived by me, otherwise it wouldn't just be you, even if I were in my peak state and encountered it, there would only be one outcome: death."

  "What's a Titan Snow Demon? What kind of species is that? Is it also a Soul Beast?" After the tension and palpitations, the boy's curiosity quickly took over.

  "The three great heavenly kings of the Far North in this land are equivalent to those rulers in the Starry Sky Forest. They are the true masters of this land, the top-notch strongmen here. In this extremely cold environment, they are almost invincible. If we talk about overall strength, even if those guys from the Starry Sky Forest were added together, it's not certain that they could win against my Far North soul beasts. The only thing is that the area and range of the Far North is much larger, but the number of soul beasts isn't many. It's hard to gather them together."

  "The number of souls in the Extreme North is staggering, even surpassing that of the Starry Sky Great Forest. After all, the environment here is too harsh, and not many humans dare to venture deep into it. The three great heavenly kings of the Extreme North all share a common trait - their cultivation is all over 100,000 years."

  Huo Yuhao was shocked, he wasn't the naive young man he was when he first met Skydream Ice Worm. After a year of studying at Shrek Academy, his knowledge of soul masters and soul beasts had become much richer.

  "Tianmeng Ge, if I'm not mistaken, after a Soul Beast reaches 100,000 years of cultivation, it can no longer grow and its life force will start to decline gradually. Your situation is extremely special, even our academy's textbooks have never seen such a case. But after all, not every 100,000-year-old Soul Beast can constantly consume the highest-grade heavenly materials like you do! What's the secret behind the three great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North? Is there something to do with you?"

  "Cough, cough... Of course, it's not like that. If Brother could have the status of one of the three great emperors of the Extreme North in this extremely cold land, why would he run away? In the beginning, I was forced to flee by one of the three. The world is vast and full of wonders, it's not just me who has had a strange encounter. Can't others have them too? The situation with these three great emperors of the Extreme North and mine are different. Our Ice Silkworm clan can only be considered low-level soul beasts in the Extreme North, most of the time serving as food. These three great emperors of the Extreme North all have noble origins, with the blood of the Ice God flowing through their veins. The tribes they belong to are already one of the strongest existences in this extremely cold land, their ability to collect heavenly materials and earthly treasures is absolutely not inferior, plus their own foundation, it's absolutely possible for them to make a breakthrough in their cultivation."

  "But to be honest, relying solely on cultivation to break through the 100,000-year mark is really difficult. In my million-year lifespan, I've only seen fewer than ten people achieve it, and among those who are still alive in the Extreme North, there are only three. The others all died while trying to break through an even higher realm. The barrier every 100,000 years isn't that easy to pass."

  "The big fellow who just passed by is said to be a descendant of the ancient ice god who blessed the Titan giants. The name of this tribe is called Titan Snow Demon, and in terms of race, they are undoubtedly the strongest in the extreme cold land. There are probably only a few hundred people left now. As long as they gather together, they are invincible in this extreme cold land. The Titan Snow Demons were born with a height of over 10 meters. The height of adult Titan Snow Demons can even exceed 50 meters. And the Titan Snow Demon king who just passed by had a height of over 100 meters, and it is no problem to say that it is the largest creature on the Douluo continent, and there is no exception. Even in the ocean, those who can compare with it in terms of body size are rare."

  "Hao Yu's eyes widened in shock: 'A hundred meters high? That's too terrifying. Doesn't that make it an invincible existence?'"

  "Invincible?" Tian Meng Bing Xue snorted: "Of course not. Not to mention the entire continent, even in this extremely cold and northern land, it is not invincible. Because among the three great heavenly kings of the far north, it ranks last. Of course, if it's a one-on-one fight, you humans here want to defeat him, the possibility is almost zero."

  "Huo Yu Hao exclaimed in shock: 'He's only ranked third with such a terrifying physique? Then the two great kings ahead of him...'"

  "It's not necessarily true that the bigger you are, the stronger you are. Sometimes being smaller can be an advantage. The other two great kings aren't as big as him either, but their strength far surpasses his. This Titan Snow Demon King, from what I know, barely passed the 200,000-year mark. I estimate it won't pass the 300,000-year mark. The two guys ranked above it, one has already passed the 300,000-year mark, and the other is terrifyingly strong, having passed the 500,000-year mark. It's the oldest soul beast on the continent, aside from me. If we're talking about the strongest soul beast on the continent, then the first of the three great kings of the Far North is absolutely the most powerful contender."

  The final sprint
