As the words fell, a sudden change occurred!

"Crack—Boom!"

The indestructible, thick glacier beneath Zhou Huai's feet let out a deafening sound of cracking without any warning, then collapsed in a funnel shape!

A nauseating, extreme stench, mixed with a chill strong enough to freeze the Soul, erupted frantically from that bottomless abyss.

In the next second, a terrifying, massive mouth broke through the swirling snow, lunging upward from below to bite fiercely at Zhou Huai in mid-air!

Beneath those two rows of forest-white fangs that resembled continuous mountain ranges, Zhou Huai's slender body was like a grain of sand under an elephant's foot—pitifully small!

"Hmm?"

Zhou Huai's eyes narrowed. His reaction was lightning-fast; within a thousandth of a second of the giant mouth's appearance, his muscles instinctively performed an evasive maneuver.

Sizzle!

Thunderous light erupted all around him as his figure transformed into an incomparably swift bolt of purple lightning. He intended to use the Thunder Sword Master's ultimate movement technique to flash horizontally out of the giant mouth's swallowing range.

However, at the very moment he was about to escape—

Buzz!

The surrounding Void Realm actually rippled with strange waves.

A bizarre suction force, so powerful it was irresistible and even altered the Laws of physics, wrapped around the lightning Zhou Huai had become like countless invisible steel chains!

Under this eerie suction, Zhou Huai's lightning-fast figure suddenly stalled. He was pinned in mid-air, unable to move at all!

"Oh?" Zhou Huai raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

This wasn't simple gravity or wind pulling him!

"Space-type power?" He quickly made a judgment in his mind.

This monster lurking beneath the glacier could actually perfectly fuse the Law of Ice with extremely rare Space-type power. Upon biting, it locked the spatial coordinates of its prey, making it impossible to evade!

Watching those two rows of forest-white fangs, capable of crushing Divine Artifacts, rapidly enlarge in his pupils, ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) he heard the Extreme Ice Empress's arrogant laughter coming through the wind and snow: "Ant, despair! In the face of absolute power, your struggles are meaningless!"

"Despair?"

Zhou Huai suddenly laughed—an incredibly wild laugh, his eyes filled with a frenzied Battle Intent.

"Old hag, have you misunderstood something?"

He abandoned his plan to continue breaking free from the spatial restraint, stepped onto the void, and shouted loudly toward the abyssal giant mouth:

"Since you won't let me leave—"

"Then today, I'm not leaving!"

Along with that roar that shattered the void, two clusters of brilliant dark-gold light erupted from Zhou Huai's eyes.

He activated the incomparably violent power of Law belonging to Overlord Xiang Yu, pushing it to its absolute limit.

【Indestructible Demon God】!

This was originally the trump card life-saving skill of the Xiang Yu Clone; once activated, the Physical Body would swell and power would double. Now, with this skill being personally executed by Zhou Huai's main body—who had completed All-Aspects Unity and stepped across the threshold of a Transcendent—the terrifying effect directly skyrocketed exponentially!

Boom—!!!

A dark-gold star seemed to detonate inside Zhou Huai's body.

Under the Extreme Ice Empress's shocked gaze, his body expanded rapidly like a balloon against the wind! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Ten meters! Fifty meters! One hundred meters! Three hundred meters!

Muscles bulged frantically like knotted ancient mountain ranges, and his skin turned into indestructible dark-gold divine iron, its surface flowing with purple World-Ending Lightning and Shadow Laws!

In less than a second, Zhou Huai transformed from the size of an insignificant grain of sand into a Dark-Gold Sky-Propping Giant with his head touching the heavens and his feet treading the abyss!

"Get—OFF!"

The sky-propping giant let out a heaven-shaking roar, the sound waves directly blowing away the blizzard for ten miles around!

Zhou Huai simply and crudely extended those two thick arms, which were like giant mountain peaks, and carrying the force of ten thousand thunderbolts, he slammed them into the terrifying giant mouth that had already closed in front of him!

Bang!

A massive explosion rang out as the void trembled.

Zhou Huai's two dark-gold giant hands, one above and one below, forcefully propped open the opponent's upper and lower jaws filled with fangs!

Creeeak—Creeeak—

As soon as the two collided, an ear-piercing sound of bone friction erupted.

Terrifying power transmitted through his arms, causing Zhou Huai's massive body to sink, his feet directly crushing the spatial barriers beneath the ruins.

"Good stuff!" Zhou Huai grew excited.

This brief struggle allowed him to gauge the opponent's strength.

The physical power of this monster hidden in the shadows was actually astonishingly great! Even in his 【Indestructible Demon God】 state, he hadn't gained an overwhelming advantage in the initial collision.

With the collision of their sizes and the complete dissipation of the blizzard, Zhou Huai finally saw clearly what kind of thing had been hiding under the glacier to ambush him.

In the dark abyss of the ice crack lay a massive, terrifying beast.

It was actually an enormous Alligator Snapping Turtle, as heavy and thick as an ancient Xuanwu!

Its entire body bore a hard shell condensed from countless Deep-Blue Profound Ice; the shell's silhouette was practically a collapsed mountain of ice crystals. Most horrifying was its massive head, currently locked in a struggle with Zhou Huai. It was covered in ice-crystal bone spikes as sharp as swords, and its blood-red eyes were filled with tyranny. Its hideous and terrifying face was enough to give an ordinary Professional nightmares for months.

"Roar—!"

The Alligator Snapping Turtle let out a dull hiss, exhaling a Soul-freezing Extreme Cold Dragon Breath from its mouth, attempting to freeze the sky-propping giant holding its jaw directly into an ice sculpture.

Feeling the resistance coming from his arms, Zhou Huai grinned.

With just one encounter and one collision of strength, Zhou Huai had already reached a precise conclusion. This Alligator Snapping Turtle not only emitted a thick aura of ancient Laws, but its life level far surpassed those so-called SSS-rank Awakened.

"So that's how it is..." Zhou Huai sneered. "No wonder you old hag dare to be so arrogant."

"This is an exotic beast that, like Xiao Hei, has crossed that threshold and reached the pseudo-divine rank!"

"Roar—!!!"

As if in response to Zhou Huai's words, the Abyssal Demon Dragon Xiao Hei, circling in the sky nearby, let out a deafening dragon roar.

Xiao Hei's vertical pupils, burning with Abyssal Demon Flame, locked onto the ice-crystal Alligator Snapping Turtle below, pouring down pseudo-divine rank Dragon Might without reservation. As a fellow high-dimensional species, Xiao Hei felt a bloodthirsty desire for prey of this level.
