In the ancestral land of the Ice Spirit Clan.
The hall was filled with singing and dancing, which was accompanied by flute music. Numerous powerhouses from the Ice Spirit Clan were gathered in the hall. Their boundless spiritual energy pulsed, causing the space to ripple.
However, among these powerhouses, the four figures that were leading the festivities at the front of the hall were undoubtedly the focus of the day. Every word they spoke and action they made brought an indescribable feeling of pressure to the numerous powerhouses in the hall.
An elder in a blue robe was sitting at the central forefront seat. His face gave off an azure glow and he exuded a daunting chilling aura with every move that he made.
Frost formed continuously in the surrounding space. Any spiritual energy that gathered around him would instantly transform into dazzlingly colorful crystal fragments due to this daunting chilling aura.
Whenever the spiritual energy was frozen into ice, the elder would draw in a breath, then swallow the ice into his body. At this moment, the boundless spiritual energy seemed to be surging in his eyes.
”Ancestor's Icy Netherworld Divine Art is reaching perfection!” While the elder displayed his domineering absorption technique, numerous high-ranking members of the Ice Spirit Clan began praising him in the hall.
This elder was the most powerful man in the Ice Spirit Clan, and he was a true-blue Heavenly Sovereign, who was known as the Ice Spirit Ancestor. He had a domineering reputation in the Great Thousand World and was the strongest and sturdiest pillar for the Ice Spirit Clan.
The Ice Spirit Ancestor smiled in response to the flattery. ”With my old pal, Snow Demon, my Icy Netherworld Divine Art is nothing.”
When he said this, he turned his smiling gaze towards the three seats that were below him. On the seat at his right-hand side was an elder with a white beard and a head of white hair. He resembled a deity.
When he heard the Ice Spirit Ancestor's laughter, he shook his head and smiled. ”Brother Ice Spirit, I cannot hold a candle to your Icy Netherworld Divine Art.”
As a flashing light could be seen in the eyes of the white-haired elder. Apparently, he did not mean exactly what he had just said.
Everyone could tell this from his expression, but no one felt offended by it, as this elder was also a renowned figure in the Great Thousand World. Everyone knew him as the Snow Demon Old Man, and he had been friends with Ice Spirit Ancestor for many years. His strength was on par with the Ice Spirit Ancestor, but neither of the two was stronger than the other.
”Haha… You two old fellows clearly wish to suppress each other, yet you still act in such a hypocritical manner.” While the humble exchange was going on between the Ice Spirit Ancestor and the Snow Demon Old Man, mocking laughter emerged from the side.
Any ordinary being, who dared to speak in such manner, would have been turned into dust at this time, yet the Ice Spirit Ancestor and the Snow Demon Old Man merely chuckled when they heard this, while they turned their gazes towards the one who had just spoken. The speaker was a tall, burly old man in a black robe. His purple-gold eyes glowed and his voice was loud and clear, as if a dragon was roaring.
As he sat there, he exuded an oppression that could strike fear into anyone's heart. He gave one the impression that he was an ultimate and ferocious dragon.
”After all these years, the tongue of the Dragon Sovereign is still as sharp as ever.” The Ice Spirit Ancestor laughed, as he did not mind the burly black-robed old man's mocking tone.
This was because this black-robed old man was a grand elder in the Dragon Clan of the Great Thousand World. He had a well-known reputation for his great power, and his actual body was a real dragon with a pure bloodline!
His existence was also comparable to a Heavenly Sovereign! He was known as the Dragon Sovereign!
The Dragon Sovereign pursed his lips and said, ”You old fellows have only reached the Heavenly Sovereign level after cultivating for many years. Compared to the War Emperor, such cultivation is as good as cultivating a dog.”
The Ice Spirit Ancestor and the Snow Demon Old Man smiled bitterly and shook their heads when they heard the Dragon Sovereign's vicious words. Then, their somewhat envious gazes were cast towards a figure, who was sitting at the far left. He was smiling at them.
That figure wore a golden robe and had a majestic and imposing demeanor. In contrast to the Ice Spirit Ancestor and the rest, he looked slightly younger and had a handsome and well-defined profile.
A smile hung at the corner of his lips. His elegance made him the most dazzling existence in the entire hall.
The beauties from the Ice Spirit Clan could not help but look at him with yearning. They could not stop peering at the golden-robed man with their slightly blushed cheeks. Apparently, they were smitten by his elegance.
Compared to those old freaks, like the Ice Spirit Ancestor and the rest, this golden-robed man was clearly in his prime. Although this golden-robed man was the last to start his cultivation journey, there was no contempt in the eyes of the sharp-tongued Dragon Sovereign when he looked at him. Instead, there was a great wariness.
This was because not only had the man before him attained the Heavenly Sovereign level at such a young age, but he had remained undefeated, despite having traveled far and wide to challenge others over the recent years.
Hence, he had been crowned the War Emperor in this Great Thousand World of tyranny and peerless mightiness. In fact, if it was a one on one battle, none of the people here, including the Ice Spirit Ancestor, the Snow Demon Old Man, and the Dragon Sovereign, could defeat him easily.
”The War Emperor has superb talent. It is likely that he will attain the Divine Heavenly Sovereign level soon. This is not something that old fellows like us can match.” The Snow Demon Old Man sighed with envy.
The Ice Spirit Ancestor and the Dragon Sovereign felt the same way. The Heavenly Sovereign in the Great Thousand World was split into three grades, which were the Spiritual, God, and Divine grades. All of them were currently at the Spiritual Heavenly Sovereign level.
The War Emperor smiled and said, ”The Divine Grade is indeed my goal. I believe I can reach that level.”
As he spoke, he sounded extremely determined. It was as if he had great confidence in himself, and a faint arrogance was revealed in his demeanor. However, no one could refute such arrogance. Instead, they believed that he was indeed capable of doing so.
Shoo!
Just as the tension amid the atmosphere in the hall heightened, a ray shot into the hall from the outside. Eventually, it transformed into a little ice bird that landed on the shoulder of the Ice Spirit Ancestor before it started to chirp incessantly.
