With a thought from Ao Yao, the God Position Legacy belonging to the Ice God suddenly descended.
In an instant, a flash of transparent ice-blue light flickered within the private room before condensing into a beam that fell straight onto the Ice Empress.
The sudden beam of light startled Ao Yao slightly. He had not expected that the Ice God's God Position would make a choice so quickly upon descending, and the candidate to receive the Ice God's trials was actually... the Ice Empress?
It wasn't the Snow Empress?
Ao Yao looked at the Snow Empress in surprise, only to find that there was no sign of abnormality on her face. Instead, a smile played at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes reflected anticipation and relief.
On the contrary, the Ice Empress, bathed in the ice-blue beam, looked at the surrounding light in a daze.
Before she could speak, a flood of complex information was suddenly instilled into her mind. The Ice Empress's expression changed abruptly, and she had to calm her heart to carefully process all the information in her head.
What the Ice Empress didn't notice was that under the effect of this ice-blue beam, a slightly blurred pattern was slowly condensing at the center of her brow.
A special energy fluctuation instantly surrounded the Ice Empress's body, causing her to feel a bone-chilling cold.
However, this cold did not make her feel uncomfortable. As one of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North Land, the Ice Empress instead felt a joy like a fish in water.
As time passed, the ice-blue beam gradually faded, and the special energy fluctuation slowly dissipated. The Ice Empress finally opened her eyes slowly.
In those emerald-green eyes, a touch of ethereal light blue had suddenly appeared, and the blurred pattern on her brow had become clear, revealing a shape similar to a scepter.
Ao Yao had to admit that this scepter was like a perfect embellishment, directly adding a different kind of charm to the Ice Empress.
However, the Ice Empress was in no mood to pay attention to these changes. Her lips trembled as she looked at the Snow Empress with a complicated expression.
She never expected that she would be the one to receive the Ice God's favor. Clearly, Xue'er was more qualified than her and needed this God Position Legacy more...
But before the Ice Empress could speak, the Snow Empress stepped forward and gently pulled her into an embrace:
"Congratulations, Bing'er. Tell me, what trials must you complete for the Ice God's God Position Legacy?"
Hearing that gentle voice in her ear, the Ice Empress bit her lip, then suddenly pulled away from the Snow Empress's embrace to face Ao Yao.
"Add one more condition to the deal we just made... You must mention Xue'er's name more often in your diary book so that she can smoothly Breakthrough her seven-hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation. As long as Xue'er can successfully pass the tribulation, I... I'll do whatever you want!"
The Ice Empress spoke with absolute determination, so much so that even the Snow Empress beside her didn't react in time.
But before Ao Yao could respond, another beam of light lit up on the Ice Empress's body.
The scepter-like pattern on her brow suddenly flashed with a blue luster, directly enveloping Ao Yao's body within it.
Hmm?
What is this?
In the next instant, a sky-blue light screen appeared in front of Ao Yao and quickly merged into his body.
To be precise, it merged into his forehead.
However, no scepter pattern formed on Ao Yao's brow like it did for the Ice Empress; instead, a faint blue light dot appeared. Soon, this light dot vanished, as if it had never been there.
Yet, both Ao Yao and the Ice Empress's expressions became peculiar at the same time.
"What just happened?"
The Snow Empress instinctively frowned. Her intuition told her that what had just occurred was... unusual.
"He has also accepted the Ice God's trials, but it's... Top-tier First Trial?"
The Ice Empress looked at Ao Yao with a hint of uncertainty in her expression.
Ao Yao nodded, looking somewhat dazed himself.
The Ice Empress was right; he had indeed accepted an Ice God trial, the Top-tier First Trial. The content of the trial was only one thing: to accompany the Ice Empress and complete the Seagod Nine Trials.
If he remembered correctly, this should be the trial Xiao Wu accepted back then, right?
As a companion, following Tang San to complete the Seagod Nine Trials.
I've become Xiao Wu?
But the problem was, Xiao Wu received the Top-tier First Trial because she wasn't fully resurrected at the time and could only accept the Seagod trials as a sort of 'accessory'.
What was his reason?
Was it because this Ice God Position was produced by the diary System, so he, as the holder of the diary, also received an Ice God trial?
In Tang San's Seagod Nine Trials, one of them was closely related to the companion Xiao Wu. Could it be that one of the Ice God Nine Trials would also be related to him?
Ao Yao suddenly felt a bit of a headache.
Mainly because it was troublesome.
Who knows what the content of the Ice God Nine Trials is or how long it will take to become a god? He couldn't possibly stay by the Ice Empress's side all the time until she achieved godhood, right?
Unless the Ice Empress could complete the Ice God Nine Trials at an extremely fast speed and attain the Ice God Position.
After briefly explaining the trial he had received, Ao Yao looked back at the Ice Empress: "I agree to the condition you just mentioned. As for what I want you to do, I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I decide."
"Right now, I'm more concerned about the content of the first trial of the Ice God Trials."
"The content of the first trial is to find the lost Eternal Frost Scepter. The reward for completion is... a hundred-thousand-year increase in cultivation!"
Eternal Frost Scepter?
Both Ao Yao and the Snow Empress instinctively looked at the scepter pattern on the Ice Empress's brow, while a thoughtful look appeared in Ao Yao's eyes.
This Eternal Frost Scepter should be the Ice God's Divine Artifact, just like Tang San's Sea God Trident, right?
Only... the Douluo Continent is so large, where are they supposed to find the Ice God Scepter?
However, the reward for completing the trial was quite good.
A hundred-thousand-year cultivation reward—this was much stronger than the rewards Tang San received during the Seagod Nine Trials.
"When I accepted the Ice God's trials, some information appeared in my mind. Regarding this Eternal Frost Scepter, I should know its approximate location."
"If nothing goes wrong, it should be in the Extreme North Land. And... I keep feeling that the environment of that place seems familiar to me."
The Ice God's Divine Artifact is in the Extreme North Land?
Being in the Extreme North Land was quite logical. It's just... the Extreme North Land is also very big!
Also, saying that the environment feels familiar is no different from saying nothing at all!
As a Vicious Beast of the Extreme North Land, what place haven't you been to!?
The entire Extreme North Land is a place you're familiar with, okay?
"The Extreme North Land, huh... It looks like we'll have to head back there again."
