"Titan..."
"Snow Demon!"
Chen Wuyao questioned her own sanity when a line of towering shadows entered her field of vision. Back when she was young, she used to listen to her elders bicker about the ancestors' travel records.
Those travel records are sometimes full of fantasy but also of facts. Then, one travel record got stuck with Chen Wuyao for a while.
The travel record was from an ancestor named Chen Yueya, who traveled to the Extreme North a few thousand years ago. The reason this particular travel record got stuck on Chen Wuyao is that this ancestor had the same Skyfrost Sword martial soul as her.
And that ancestor fought and killed a 10,000-year-old Titan Snow Demon as her 6th spirit ring, which was even younger than Chen Wuyao's fifth spirit ring, but gained a powerful spirit skill called 'Titan Snow's Iceberg' that became a myth in the clan.
This very myth has been passed around for thousands of years because no clansmen could find the Titan Snow Demon in the Extreme North, as they would meet an unfortunate end first.
Every time the clan sent an expedition to the Extreme North, they would suffer, leading them to name it no man's land.
Yet, today, Chen Wuyao finally saw the Titan Snow Demons her ancestor described and hunted in her travel log. The horror of facing a mythical beast is not something she could handle.
Let alone one, Chen Wuyao could discern that some of these Titan Snow Demons exceeded her own cultivation, which means one thing and one thing only.
Some of these Titan Snow Demons are 100,000-year-old spirit beasts!
Chen Wuyao wanted to warn Han Yuan, but then saw his calm demeanor from the side, 'How could he be so calm!'
'We are literally facing a group of spirit beasts, whose strength exceeds us!'
It's not just Han Yuan, because even his companions didn't show much reaction when a group of Titan Snow Demons arrived.
Well, beside someone.
"Whoa, so tall! So big!" Xiao Wu shouted with brightness in her playful eyes.
"..." Chen Wuyao.
Xiao Rou facepalms, "Aih."
Han Yuan gazed at the tallest Titan Snow Demon and smiled, "Titan Snow Demon King, please escort us to the Snow Empress. She must have been waiting for me for a while."
The tallest shadow remained quiet for a while before saying in a booming voice that echoed for miles, "Proof."
"Is this enough?" Han Yuan casually brought out the gleaming jet-black dragon's scale he had shed off Di Tian when fighting him.
The jet-black dragon's scale still had that lingering yet strong bloody hue and burnt mark from Han Yuan's lightning strike, causing the Titan Snow Demon King to narrow his massive eyes slightly.
Titan Snow Demon King grunted, "It is the Beast God's own scale. At first, I thought when I heard a young human fought the Beast God one-to-one in a battle, and ended up tied, it was the greatest joke I've ever heard, but it seems I was underestimating your kind."
"Then, again, the Extreme North rarely interacts with humans outside."
"The last time I interacted with a human was when one of them entered my tribe's territory and killed one of my descendants for its spirit ring."
"She had a sword spirit, and quite a powerful one to run away from the crazed chase of my tribe."
"That was a few thousand years ago..."
Chen Wuyao couldn't help but freeze on the spot as this was exactly what her ancestor's travel record described. It wasn't a myth, after all!
Titan Snow Demon King then sighed helplessly, "Back then, two of your humans became gods."
"Now, you stand before me with even more monstrous talents than they were."
"Not even a Title Douluo, yet you could fight Di Tian."
"It makes me interested. Human, before I lead you to the Snow Empress, let me test your strength!"
"Here?" Han Yuan tilted his head in confusion.
"Here!" Titan Snow Demon King roared in excitement.
Han Yuan smiled at the Titan Snow Demon King, "Alright, clean the area for now. Let's make it quick."
Titan Snow Demon King ordered his tribe to scatter around, allowing him to prepare against Han Yuan.
Meanwhile, Han Yuan casually told the three Phoenix Lords to protect the others in his group.
"Hmm?" As Han Yuan was considering what approach he should utilize to fight the Titan Snow Demon King, the latter actually transformed into his human form.
The towering Titan Snow Demon King transformed into a burly man in ice-blue pants. His whole body is white-snow with ice-blue veins, with some sharp frost covering his skin. His face is rugged, modelling a beard and ice crown that merged with his skull.
"Huh, I didn't expect that." Han Yuan commented in surprise.
Titan Snow Demon King responded calmly. "My body is too big, and any of my attacks would cause too much destruction to the Extreme North.
"Fair enough," Han Yuan nodded in understanding. "Well, then, do you need to count?"
"No-!" As Titan Snow Demon King uttered that word, Han Yuan suddenly appeared before his very eyes and swung his fire-covered fist at him.
Titan Snow Demon King's face changed immediately as he also swung his frost-covered fist at Han Yuan.
Two fists met in the air. A fierce crimson-gold flame and bouldering ice clashed fiercely, causing the temperature to rise and fall on both sides.
Then, an explosion occurred.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
"What a monster..." The one saying that is Titan Snow Demon King as he watched his fist crack under the overwhelming force of Han Yuan's attack.
He couldn't believe that a human could actually rival him in pure physical exchange.
Yes, pure physical force. Their fists indeed coated with elements, but that was merely a glove to prevent injury and even lessen the impact they could have made.
On the other hand, Han Yuan was a little bit surprised that the Titan Snow Demon King wasn't pushed back much by his attack. His own physique has evolved to a Divine Body.
'I didn't put much strength, but still...'
'Titan Snow Demon King is only over 200,000 years old, yet his physical strength is only lower than that of Bear Lord. And Bear Lord is a proud owner of an impure Behemoth's bloodline.'
'Ice God's blood, huh?'
After grasping their lowest boundary, Han Yuan and Titan Snow Demon King decided to stop holding back too much. They stared at each other and then moved like a flash.
"Titan Snowfall Fist!" Titan Snow Demon King roared and threw a barrage of heavy punches that manifested in the snowy sky above. Several fist-shaped icy meteors seemingly fell from the sky.
"Fire Fist..." Han Yuan spread his left hand's fingers, causing fiery feathers to swirl on each fingertip. He then clenched his hand and threw a jab at the sky.
A crimson-gold glare expanded, burning through everything.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
An intense heat shockwave erupted as two attacks collided in the air. The icy meteors persisted for a while, but each failed to cause Han Yuan any injury because he melted them.
"Long-range is ineffective. Then, let's try this," Titan Snow Demon King twisted his hip and threw a punch at Han Yuan. "Ice Breaker!"
Han Yuan felt the space around him unexpectedly solidify under the Titan Snow Demon King's punch. Yes, the space actually freezes for a split second.
And that split second is crucial in this fight.
'I got him!' Titan Snow Demon King showed an enthusiastic look.
Yet, despite all this, Han Yuan merely smiled. "I see... This space-freezing skill is Ice God's legacy in your blood."
"Not bad."
"Let's raise the stake a little, shall we?"
Han Yuan formed a sign with his right hand, pointing at Titan Snow Demon King.
"You!" Titan Snow Demon King was in disbelief. Even when the space is frozen, Han Yuan can still move.
Han Yuan's body is strong enough to defy the spatial fabrics around him, as they couldn't restrict him completely.
Han Yuan grinned, "Za Warudo (The World)!"
