Douluo Continent: Contract with Gu Yuena, Start by Slaying Tang Shenwang

"What's up?" Bai Xuan asked directly.

At this time, the Snow Empress should have been completing her assessment in the far north; she wouldn't have come here for no reason.

Snow Emperor nodded and, without beating around the bush, said:

"With your help, Your Excellency, I have successfully completed the first five tests and am now on the sixth test."

"This sixth test is somewhat special. It requires entering the inner secret realm of the Ice Palace to complete the trial and thus gain the Ice Palace's complete approval."

"The assessment allows me to bring a partner to assist me in completing it, so I would like to ask for your help, Your Excellency."

Xue Di looked at Bai Xuan expectantly and added, "Assisting in the assessment can yield generous rewards, so it shouldn't be a wasted trip for Your Excellency."

She doesn't know the details of the reward yet, but there will definitely be one.

These rewards were all prepared by the Ice Goddess before her death. Judging from the rewards she received in the first five tests, none of them would be bad, and any one of them could probably create an ultimate powerhouse.

For example, the Ice Crystal Phoenix Martial Soul she condensed during her first test could transform anyone, giving them the potential to cultivate to the limit.

"Why not let Hyotei go? His Majesty is extremely busy; he might not have the time."

"Furthermore, given their current level of development, it seems more appropriate to send Hyotei."

Di Tian couldn't help but ask, "Who knows how long this trip will take?"

"To gain the Ice Palace's approval, strength is secondary; other abilities are more important."

"I don't really know the specific content of the assessment, but what I am sure of is that combat strength is not the most important thing."

Xue Di smiled awkwardly, knowing that some things were better left unsaid.

Emotionally speaking, she would definitely lean towards Hyotei, with whom she had been together for over 100,000 years.

From a rational perspective, Your Majesty is definitely the best choice.

The help that Hyotei gave him could never compare to that of the Venerable One. From the perspective of the assessment, he would definitely prioritize the Venerable One, who would make it easier for him to pass the assessment.

This is a very important matter, and she doesn't want to let personal feelings cause any problems.

Di Tian understood the meaning from Xue Di's smile, said no more, and looked at Bai Xuan, saying that it depended on whether the Venerable One wanted to go.

Xue Di looked at Bai Xuan expectantly, hoping she could help.

"Okay." Bai Xuan thought for a moment. In order to ensure that her divine succession could proceed smoothly, it was appropriate to take action.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xue Di beamed with joy, feeling that victory was within her grasp.

Half an hour later, in the far north.

With Di Tian's spatial abilities, traversing tens of thousands of miles was not so troublesome for them.

They arrived at the core area, which was the territory of the Snow Emperor.

The Snow Emperor summoned the Ice Palace, which was more exquisite than the one he had seen before, and it also exuded a colder aura.

"Your Majesty, please be extremely careful."

Di Tian felt inexplicably apprehensive looking at the ice palace; it was the pressure emanating from the divine artifact.

Bai Xuan nodded casually and followed Xue Di into the Ice Palace.

Upon entering, they did not arrive at an ice palace, but rather experienced a spatial shift, arriving at the top of a snow-capped mountain.

Xue Di tensed up, looking around warily, on guard against any potential danger.

Bai Xuan remained relatively calm, scanning his surroundings while carefully sensing the fundamental laws of this world.

After waiting for a while without any change, Xue Di was a little confused.

"I don't know exactly how this assessment will be conducted."

Xue Di subconsciously looked at Bai Xuan, wondering if he had noticed anything.

Bai Xuan's gaze slowly moved upwards, and Xue Di followed suit, vaguely seeing what appeared to be lightning flashing in the sky.

"Heavenly Tribulation?"

The Snow Empress was very sensitive to this, and her expression immediately hardened.

She has already experienced six heavenly tribulations and has a deep-seated fear of them.

Especially since she is actually facing her seventh tribulation, could it be coming now?

"You're scared already?"

Bai Xuan turned to look at Xue Di, and seeing her solemn expression, asked calmly.

"No." Xue Di denied it subconsciously, but her expression was full of fear and apprehension. She was not confident that she could survive the seventh heavenly tribulation.

Especially facing the Heavenly Tribulation during the sixth trial, this came at a truly inopportune time.

"Face it bravely. This is not a heavenly tribulation, but a test from the Ice Palace to see if you have a fearless heart."

Bai Xuan said that he had already made some discoveries.

"test?"

The Snow Empress was taken aback. After carefully sensing it, she realized that it was clearly the aura of a heavenly tribulation.

Rumbling--

The sudden clap of thunder startled her, making it feel even more real.

Thunder was already surging in the sky, brewing to a terrifying degree.

call--

Xue Di took a deep breath, calmed herself, and dispelled all the fear in her heart.

I still choose to believe Bai Xuan. If he says it's fake, then it must be fake.

Moreover, even if it were true, I'm sure I could get through it.

"Just treat it as an insignificant opponent and firmly believe in your own invincibility."

Bai Xuan encouraged her, but he didn't intend to get involved in helping Xue Di.

She has to overcome this hurdle herself; it's a test of her courage, and no one else can help her.

"I'm sure I can win."

Xue Di said with absolute certainty that confidence was gradually building and momentum was rising rapidly.

The next moment, she soared into the sky, and behind her appeared the Ice and Snow Fairy, who looked exactly like her, only more aloof and ethereal.

Rumbling--

A bolt of lightning several meters thick struck down, carrying countless branches, like an army of lightning crashing towards her.

Faced with this attack, Xue Di felt her own insignificance and fragility.

She had similar feelings every time she faced a heavenly tribulation, but this time the feeling was more pronounced.

My own fears seemed to be amplified.

Fearless, Xue Di's seventh soul ring lit up, revealing her true form. She slammed her fair hand down towards the approaching lightning.

The seemingly light palm strike caused the snow on the ground to gather wildly, forming a giant icy hand that covered an area of ​​hundreds of meters.

boom--

He shattered the lightning with his palm, turning it into rain that fell in all directions.

The icy hand shattered instantly, the collision proving to be evenly matched.

The terrifying aftershocks of energy raged on. Bai Xuan raised his right hand, and the Soul Bone Armor appeared. As he pressed it, the raging energy was paused and instantly calmed down.

Bai Xuan's robes fluttered as he calmly watched the Snow Emperor face the heavenly tribulation.

Xue Di's expression turned slightly serious. Could it be that her Emperor Palm, one of her three great skills, could only be evenly matched with this first bolt of lightning?

The seventh heavenly tribulation means that seven terrifying bolts of heavenly lightning will descend, each stronger than the last.

If the first strike is already this powerful, how terrifying must the subsequent six strikes of lightning be?

At this moment, Xue Di couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart, and fear began to grow again.

Xue Di was startled, not by the thunder, but by her own mindset.

Why am I feeling scared again?

Bai Xuan's reminder came to mind, reminding her that she had to be fearless in whatever she said.
