**Chapter 128: The Test Left by the Ice God—Ten Thousand Years of Cold and Loneliness**
At this moment, the se dispyed on the s was crystal clear to the soul masters from the gap between the pnes. After hearing the expnation from the Sky-Swallowing Ice Python, everyone grasped what was happening. They also felt an intense envy toward Huo Yuhao's opportunity in the parallel world.
Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor both felt a sense of relief wash over them.
Ice Emperor remarked, "So, this is the situation. No wonder we searched all over the Far North for so long without finding this ia simply didn't belong to us."
Snow Emperor added, "But what surprised me the most is the owner of the aree. You all heard it just now; even the Sky-Swallowing Ice Python aowledged that the owner of the tree is respected by the Ice God. It seems that this tree's owner is quite extraordinary."
Ice Emperreed, "That's true, but it makes sense when you sider it. Otherwise, why would the Lord Ice God grant his iao Huo Yuhao in the parallel world? Clearly, the owner of that aree is of a different caliber."
Snow Emperor cluded, "heless, this is a moal opportunity for Huo Yuhao in the parallel world. If he successfully passes the test, he gains access to the Ice God's iance, which is the only belief shared by all soul beasts in our Far North."
Ice Emperor nodded in agreement, though a hint of worry creased her brow. "That's true, but as I said, whether he plete the test ultimately depends on Huo Yuhao's luck. This is a trial specifically set by the Lord Ice God, and it must be extraordinary. Even Huo Yuhao in the parallel world might not pass it with ease."
Snow Emperor nodded in agreement as she sidered this.
The two beasts directed their attention back to the s.
Oher side, the God of Destru wore an intrigued smile as he observed. "Sure enough. This aligns perfectly with my suspis!"
"Who is the owner of that mysterious artifact? My curiosity only deepens," he murmured to himself before fog ba the s.
At this moment, the se unfolding was as follows:
[After the Sky-Swallowing Ice Python's expnation, Huo Yuhao came to uand the situation.]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Pythht Huo Yuhao to a mysterious space that was pletely covered in snow. Beh the snow y a thick yer of ice.]
[ the endless white expanse, Huo Yuhao's expression grew solemn.]
[He then asked the Sky-Swallowing Ice Python at his feet, "Senior, have we arrived?"]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Pytho Huo Yuhao down and replied, "Yes, we are now here."]
["Wele to the Frozen Realm."]
[At the mention of "Frozen Realm," Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow. "That name suits this pce perfectly."]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Python tinued, "Although this pce is called the Frozen Realm, it isn't solely named for its idscape. A signifit part of its name es from the fact that here, time, space, soul power, and all the ws of the outside world are pletely frozen."]
["In simple terms, no matter how long you remain here, you will not age. The flow of time is halted. Additionally, siime is frozen, you will not o eat. However, you ot practice here; this space cks soul power."]
[Huo Yuhao was momentarily taken aback. This was the first time he had entered such a strange phenomenon, prompting him to ask, "So, do you normally live here?"]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Python shook its head. "This is merely a testing ground prepared by the Lord Ice God for the examinees. I ot ehis space regurly."]
[Curiosity driving him, Huo Yuhao pressed, "What exactly is the test that awaits me?"]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Pythoured for Huo Yuhao to look into the air. "Look there."]
[Huo Yuhao directed his gaze upward, spotting an enormous hss materializing in the sky.]
[The hss stood at least dozens of meters high and more than teers wide, suspended in midair. The sand within it flowed at an agonizingly slow pace.]
[Huo Yuhao suddenly had a bad premonition creeping over him.]
[The Sky-Swallowing Ice Python tinued, "Your test is to remain in this space alone, enduring the cold and isotion. When all the sand in the hss has pletely flowed out, you will have passed the test."]
["However, I must inform you that ohe test begins, it ot be halted. Even if you start tret your decision or feel driven to madness from the solitude, the test will not cease."]
["Therefore, you must carefully sider whether you wish to accept the Ice God's test."]
["It's worth mentioning that while time is frozen here, the design of the Lord Ice God equates the duration of the sand flowing out to ten thousand years in the Douluo ti."]
["Think it over."]
[After delivering this message, the Sky-Swallowing Ice Python fell silent, granting Huo Yuhao ample time to refle his choice.]
[Realizing the gravity of this decision, Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought.]
In the gap between the phe group of soul masters became increasingly uled as they withe se.
Wang Donger remarked, "Do you think Yuhao in the parallel world will choose to accept the test?"
"Ten thousand years of cold and loneliness is not something to take lightly."
"Our lifespans aren't even that long."
Wang Qiu'er turo Huo Yuhao. "If it were you, would you accept the test?"
Huo Yuhao replied, "Ten thousand years of loneliness and cold? Just imagining living alone in this icy wastend without food, panionship, or any means of cultivation for that long... I might go insane!"
"I'm not sure I have the ce to take on this test."
The Snow Emperor within Huo Yuhao exhaled deeply. "Ten thousand years of cold and solitude? The ight be manageable, but the loneliness is terrifying to even sider."
"After all, even for us soul beasts, living without panionship or practice for ten thousand years is unimaginable—unless you sleep like Tianmeng."
At this, the er of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's mouth twitched, and Ice Emperor nodded in agreement, exhaling a sigh.
She murmured, "Yes, this is far too difficult. But in the face of such a challenge, will Huo Yuhao in the parallel world still choose to advance?"
