Outside the ice cave is a blizzard as messy as a knife, with heavy snow falling in the dark night and no one around.
However, in the snowstorm, there was a small figure walking alone.
It was a human child with short white hair, small and delicate facial features, and was wearing thick clothes made of soul beast fur.
His name is Yun Cang, and he has been in this world for twelve years.
Without a father or a mother since he was a child, a baby was exiled to the far north and had no chance of surviving. However, Yun Cang survived.
What has supported Yun Cang's survival to this day is his check-in system and his mature wisdom from two lifetimes.
Carrying the prey in his hands and returning to the ice cave where he lived, Yun Cang lit up a fire and skinned the snowshoe rabbit and roasted it.
When the time came to zero, the sign-in system was triggered on time.
"Ding, daily sign-in is successful, you will get the sign-in reward: golden apple."
A golden apple appeared in Yun Cang's hand. Yun Cang picked up the apple and started to chew it.
Since he was weaned, the daily sign-in reward has changed from a bottle of animal milk to a golden apple, and it has never changed.
However, this golden apple is not an ordinary apple, but a spiritual material that can wash away impurities in the body and enhance physical fitness. Eating one can keep you from being hungry all day long.
The reason why Yun Cang went hunting outside was just for a change of taste.
However, the system prompts are not over yet.
"Ding, the host has signed in for twelve consecutive years and received a special reward: Martial Spirit - Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion."
"The system reminds that the plot of Peerless Tang Sect is about to begin. The system has enabled the plot sign-in and location sign-in functions. Completing these two sign-ins will receive special rewards."
Yun Cang was stunned. He had been in the far north of Douluo Continent for twelve years, and he still couldn't awaken his martial spirit.
Therefore, Yun Cang is very weak now and cannot go through the Far North alone to other places.
Yun Cang gave up all hope and could only live by checking in every day. Unexpectedly, a martial spirit suddenly appeared in the check-in today.
Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, isn't this the second martial spirit of the peerless Tang Sect protagonist Huo Yuhao? It was actually signed by me!
Yun Cang looked excited and stood up, waiting for his martial soul to awaken.
However, the system said: "Due to special reasons, the host needs to come to the Far North Continent in order to awaken the martial spirit."
A navigation panel appeared in Yun Cang's field of vision, and Yun Cang was speechless.
"In this case, I have no choice but to go out again."
Yun Cang swallowed the roasted snow rabbit in two mouthfuls and walked out of the ice cave carrying his homemade ice stone spear.
Thunderclouds gathered in the sky over the far north, and streaks of thunder flashed among them. The power of the sky was terrifying.
Under the thundercloud, a strange soul beast was gathering momentum.
Yun Cang lay not far away, holding his breath and staring.
"Is this the Ice Emperor, the Ice Jade Emperor and Scorpion, one of the three kings of the Far North?"
The Ice Emperor is about one and a half meters long and has only two colors, one is the color of ice and the other is green.
There are four superimposed layers on the front end of its body, each layer is slightly more than half a foot long. The head is on the frontmost layer, and the silver-white mouthparts shine with a faint cold light.
And the front half of these four superimposed layers is covered with a special kind of scales, or bumps...
They were hexagonal protrusions that sparkled like diamonds.
These protrusions are densely covered on its front half and its six slender and powerful legs.
The two front claws of the Ice King are one meter long, and are also covered with strange hexagonal diamond-like protrusions. Only the front clamp is the same as the mouthparts, which are silvery white as smooth as a mirror.
The long and raised tail on the back of Hyokui's body is more colorful than the upper body.
Different from the long bony joints of ordinary scorpions, the Ice Emperor's scorpion tail has only five joints in total. Each joint is an attractive turquoise color. Only the tip of the tail hook raised high is also a mirror-like silvery white, shining.
With the luster of life.
Flawless and as bright as a gem, this was Yun Cang's first impression of the Ice Emperor.
Any words that describe beauty become eclipsed in front of the Ice Emperor.
However, at this time, the aura on the Ice Emperor's body was very low.
"Why is the 400,000-year catastrophe brought forward?"
The soul beast has a limit of one hundred thousand years, and every hundred thousand years it will experience a heavenly tribulation. After surviving the heavenly calamity, the soul beast's strength will be enhanced and it will continue to live until the next hundred thousand years.
And once it fails, all that awaits the soul beast is death of body and soul.
Although the Ice Emperor was strong, it was still not enough to face the terrifying catastrophe. Under the bombardment of the sky thunder, its aura became weaker and weaker, and its carapace continued to break, and green blood flowed out.
"If I could absorb the power of that ice silkworm, I would definitely be able to survive this catastrophe, but..."
The Ice Emperor felt that his power was getting weaker and weaker, and he couldn't help but have a revolving door of beasts in his mind, and scenes of criss-crossing the far north appeared before his eyes.
"Is it going to end today?"
A sky-reaching thunder pillar struck down again, and the Ice Emperor was no longer able to resist. It fell to the ground, watching helplessly as the lightning tribulation was about to kill him.
However, the scene that appeared in front of him made the Ice Emperor unbelievable.
A thin human appeared in front of it at some point. This human was none other than Yun Cang.
When he was notified by the system that he could step forward to obtain the martial soul, Yun Cang jumped out from behind the hiding stone and stood in front of the Ice Emperor.
The Thunder Pillar blasted into Yun Cang's back, but he was fearless because he knew that with the system in place, he could definitely protect the Ice Emperor.
The system deployed a golden barrier to firmly block the thunder pillar.
Taking this opportunity, Yun Cang extended his hand to the Ice Emperor: "Do you want to live?"
There is always a moment in life that can deeply shock a person's soul.
In the 400,000-year life of the Ice Emperor, he has never been tempted for a moment.
The thunder pillar reaching the sky illuminates all directions, and the aura of destruction is brewing.
That was the wrath of heaven. The power of thunder, which was more terrifying than the 400,000-year catastrophe, was gathering, vowing to tear through the barrier and kill this tiny human being.
However, Yun Cang carried the Thunder Pillar on his back and asked the Ice Emperor again: "In order to survive, are you willing to become my martial spirit?"
Seeing the angry thunder in the sky and the golden light behind Yun Cang, the Ice Emperor used his last bit of strength to say those words: "I do."
Suddenly, the golden light turned into silk threads and wrapped the Ice Emperor and Yun Cang together.
The Ice Emperor's spiritual origin was completely stripped away by the system and sealed into Yun Cang's spiritual sea.
In Yun Cang's spiritual sea, the Ice Emperor regained consciousness. She felt that this human being had supreme power, and it was this power that sealed her own power to prevent Yun Cang's body from exploding.
The Ice Emperor did not resist and allowed his vast power to be sealed away.
