### Chapter 3: The Grand Finale (4)
Above the Asking Dao Continent, the battle raged on.
Frost North Snow was initially at a disadvantage, but after continuously absorbing the emotional energy provided by the people, her strength steadily increased. Soon, she was evenly matched against the three upper gods led by Duowen Heavenly King.
Before heading to Earth, she already possessed the strength of a lower god. Ever since returning to the Asking Dao Continent as a player, she had been hiding in Lin Nan’s mind, constantly siphoning the various emotional energies directed at Cold Moon Witch.
And the so-called Cold Value System created by the system truly did Frost North Snow a huge favor.
The more Cold Value she had, the greater the nourishment for her.
Later, Di Shitian replaced the system and established the Godhood Value progress. He thought Lin Nan would be thrilled about becoming a lower god. Little did he know that during this process, Frost North Snow, leveraging the Godhood Value system, absorbed a massive amount of the citizens’ worship and admiration for Lin Nan, allowing her to reach the standard of a middle god.
During her battle with Broad-eyed Heavenly King, Lin Nan’s memories of entering the Asking Dao Continent were erased by Broad-eyed, completely removing the obstacles for Frost North Snow to reclaim her position. But she didn’t immediately take over Lin Nan’s body; she was waiting for the right moment.
Yes, Frost North Snow knew that even if she revealed herself now, she’d only end up fighting Broad-eyed to a standstill, which meant absolutely nothing.
In the seven or eight thousand years since her birth, she had worked hard as the proxy of the Four Heavenly Kings on the Asking Dao Continent, diligently providing mature powerhouses every four hundred years as a stable source for their divine energy. Yet the Four Heavenly Kings would not allow anyone to become a god on their turf.
Because once a new god was accepted by the Divine Realm, it meant they would have to give up a part of their territory, something no god wished to witness.
Not just Frost North Snow, Monster King Shiyuan also showed potential to become a lower god four hundred years ago. Back then, both Shiyuan and Frost North Snow’s memories were sealed, dedicated to reviving the Monster Race and unwilling to be oppressed by the Human Race.
As fate would have it, during the four-hundred-year cycle, Monster King Shiyuan led an army of monsters to attack the human realm. The fallen powerhouses during their fierce battle all became fodder for the Four Heavenly Kings.
But who would have thought that the battle between the monster and human races wasn’t over yet? Upon discovering Shiyuan’s potential to ascend to godhood, the Four Heavenly Kings swiftly turned on him. Under their orders, the Small Thousand World commanded Shiyuan to cease hostilities and return to face a fate of imprisonment until d*ath.
As the king of the monsters, how could Shiyuan abandon his subjects in the heat of battle? He refused.
But the Small Thousand World, being his creator, had countless ways to compel him to obey.
Feeling helpless, Shiyuan ultimately resorted to self-detonation as a form of resistance.
Yet, under the intervention of the Small Thousand World, Shiyuan’s explosion was incomplete, eventually splitting him into three distinct personalities, who were subsequently captured by the humans and imprisoned in different locations.
Thus, Shiyuan’s strength was severely weakened, losing all possibility of becoming a god, and the Four Heavenly Kings decided not to pursue the matter further.
However, witnessing everything from the shadows, Frost North Snow was instantly stimulated by the thought that her husband was nearly killed and split into three beings. Her memories, deliberately sealed by the Four Heavenly Kings, unlocked in an instant.
In a flash, thousands of years of memories flooded her mind, filling her heart with resentment.
Not to mention that her only husband was intentionally dismembered by the Four Heavenly Kings, but as their earliest representative, she had labored tirelessly to gather vast amounts of divine energy for them. Yet how did the Four Heavenly Kings treat her?
She was like a used rag, tossed aside after use. No matter how hard she toiled for thousands of years, it would never change her status in their eyes.
From that moment, she began her revenge plan.
One day, she would slay gods and chop off the heads of all Four Heavenly Kings.
She wouldn’t care about sacrificing everything!
Now, victory seemed within reach. With nearly a million people beneath the Sky Tower exhausting their emotional energy to d*ath, Frost North Snow instantly gained tremendous power.
Even though this power, gained through such desperate measures, wouldn’t last long, as long as she could take down all Four Heavenly Kings, she had no reservations.
“Crunch crunch!”
As the Black Wind Sword sliced through the air, deep ravines of several dozen meters into the ground momentarily remained, only to be filled back in by the murky flood after several seconds.
The three heavenly kings used everything they had, yet they were utterly helpless against Frost North Snow.
Duowen Heavenly King knew full well they had to go all out. If they continued to drag this out, this Frost North Snow might become increasingly difficult to handle.
“Second brother, third brother! Ready the Primordial Formation!”
“Got it!”
As soon as they finished speaking, golden light enveloped their weapons.
Even the treasure umbrella that had followed Broad-eyed into the water began to slowly rise to the surface, spinning rapidly.
Frost North Snow became immediately alert, but what she didn’t expect was that the Four Heavenly Kings’ weapons suddenly appeared above her head, that golden glow emanating from the release of their divine power.
The ancient divine energy, accumulated over tens of thousands of years, radiated a warm light, much like sunlight, across her face.
Even though Frost North Snow had already reached the level of an upper god, when it came to foundation, she couldn’t even hope to match a fraction of the Four Heavenly Kings.
The ancient divine energy, refined over the long years, had become even purer.
As a trump card for the upper gods, the Four Heavenly Kings never easily employed their ancient divine power.
But who would’ve thought that today, faced with Frost North Snow, they were forced to use the Primordial Formation powered by that ancient divine energy.
Sure enough, compared to the energy Frost North Snow had just absorbed, the ancient divine power had an overwhelming advantage.
Supported by their weapons, the Primordial Formation tightly ensnared her, leaving her scrambling in vain to escape.
Duowen Heavenly King’s face twisted in agony.
Though he felt pained, things had progressed this far, and he had no choice but to risk everything.
Otherwise, if the three brothers were really overthrown by Frost North Snow, even if they survived, their status in the divine realm would be in shambles, never to return to glory.
Just as Frost North Snow was being pulled tighter by the constricting Primordial Formation, with barely a meter of space to maneuver left,
A thick bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, as if it shot down from beyond the heavens, startling the three heavenly kings.
“What the hell, is Di Shitian trying to fish in muddy waters?!”
The three of them quickly braced for impact.
Even if that bolt struck them head-on, with their powers, they wouldn’t be hurt much.
But the timing of the lightning was suspicious; who knew what trick Di Shitian was playing?
Duowen Heavenly King dared not underestimate Di Shitian, and it wasn’t until the lightning had long disappeared from their sides that they turned their focus back to the encroaching Primordial Formation.
At that moment, however, Frost North Snow was lying on the ground, her life or d*ath unknown.
