“Done.” A light chuckle echoed through the world dyed in silver-white, as a long and majestic Silver-White Flood Dragon soared into the sky.

At this moment, if one were to look behind the Silver-White Flood Dragon, they would see a frozen world, with snow drifting for thousands of kilometers. What was even more unbelievable was that Tier-3 Mutant Beasts, that were capable of shaking the continent, were frozen into ice sculptures, with a look of fear plastered on their faces.

The entire world was reduced to silver-white in the blink of an eye, such terrifying power struck terror in the hearts of not only ordinary Mutant Beasts but also theirs.

This was not the most important part.

The most important part was that the Tier-3 Mutant Beasts, now frozen into ice sculptures, were unable to break free from the ice.

“How is this possible?” Horrified, even the frozen Rainbow Deer found it hard to accept the fact that it was unable to break free from the ice, even with its majestic power.

Just then, as if sensing her thoughts, Little White suddenly looked back and stated with a smile, “Don’t bother. You’ll need to cultivate for decades if you want to break free from my absolute ice.”

As if stating a fact, Little White’s cold voice made Rainbow Deer’s heart gradually plunge into despair, because the chilling coldness not only froze their bodies but also seemed to freeze their souls.

In an instant, Rainbow Deer’s thoughts began to slow, ultimately freezing altogether.

…

While Qing Gang and Little White suppressed the Tier-3 Mutant Beasts lurking in the vicinity using thunderous means, within the depths of Steel World…

Fearsome tremors shook the ground as a majestic aura surged. The sky suddenly grew dark as endless dark clouds rolled in, with bolts of lightning suddenly coming down.

At the same time, countless red electric arcs spread from the depths of Steel World, their crackles sounding like the cries of thousands of birds. 

The fearsome sight left many Mutant Beasts gasping for breath.

“It’s awake!” Exclaiming in a terrified voice, a look of horror even appeared on the face of Human-Faced Beast, who was tightly held in Qing Gang’s rocky arm.

Compared to the unfathomable Qing Gang in front of them, they were more afraid of the existence deep within Steel World, because it had once displayed its immense power.

In the face of such power, even they felt as tiny as ants.

At this moment, not only Human-Faced Beast but also various people across the continent were unsettled.

…

In the Capital of China, Beijing, the President suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flickering incessantly.

“Even the Steel Progenitor of Steel World has awakened?” A sense of dread and solemnity appeared in the depths of the President’s eyes.

If it weren’t for the terrifying Steel Progenitor, how could China simply stand idly by while countless precious metals lay untouched in Steel World?

As a matter of fact, they did not stand idly by. Rather, they had sacrificed too many lives but gained nothing in return.

What was even more frightening was that even the powerful Superhumans sent by the Chinese Government to the depths of Steel World never returned.

…

At the same time, on a mountain peak…

*Screech…* Accompanied by a loud and sharp cry, a jet-black bird, as black as the moonless night, with three feathers trailing behind it like a Phoenix, narrowed its eyes.

After a moment, it suddenly turned its gaze towards the horizon, as if sensing something.

“The Steel Progenitor of Steel World has awakened?” Seemingly surprised, the bird, or more accurately, the Demonic Phoenix, revealed a hint of doubt on its face.

In fact, the Demonic Phoenix was ranked second among the Ten Monstrosities of the Continent three years ago.

Even today, it was still one of the most terrifying and powerful Mutant Beasts on the continent.

At this moment, within the blood-red pupils of the Demoni Phoenix, a clear vision flashed by. In this vision, a towering figure rose from the ground, resembling a giant made of red crystals.

Although this figure was terrifying, the Demonic Phoenix was more concerned about another illusory figure, with Willow Branches continuously weaving in the sky, seemingly sealing off half of the sky, and a thick trunk that seemed to support the entire world, majestic and towering.

“The Tree Monster!” Exclaiming in a solemn voice, the Demonic Phoenix couldn’t help but gasp sharply.

[Encountering the Steel Progenitor is bad enough, and now I have to face that monstercity?]

Feeling horrified, the Demonic Phoenix immediately averted its gaze. Entities like the Tree Monster would certainly notice if observed for long enough.

More importantly, it just used its power of foresight to see the future. If the Tree Monster decided to look into it, it could even track down its existence.

The Demonic Phoenix was willing to provoke anyone, but under no circumstances would it dare to antagonize the Tree Monster.

The Tree Monster was no longer an existence on the same level as them.

…

Meanwhile, just as the Demonic Phoenix had witnessed…

Deep within Steel World, the earth quaked as the crust split apart, unleashing countless streams of magma that erupted violently. Red-hot globs of magma rained down, dotting the earth and filling the air with the strong smell of sulfur.

Amidst this hellish scene, a red hot figure, resembling a mountain, slowly crawled out.

However, before it could give out a roar and declare its presence, silver snakes streaked through the sky.

However, if one looked closer, they would discover that these silver snakes were not actually bolts of lightning but silver-white branches instead.

These silver-white branches, resembling Silver Snakes, surged in all directions, sealing off the sky.

And right at that very instant, countless Mutant Beasts in the vicinity discovered a vague titanic figure manifesting within the dense mist, much to their astonishment.

Compared to the immense size of this figure, the Steel Progenitor, which stood as tall as a mountain, appeared too small.

What was even more terrifying was that the vague figure within the dense fog was growing at a frightening speed…

“What’s that?” Bewildered, the towering giant that had crawled out from the depths of the earth also froze in shock.

It was horrified, the sheer terror it felt could not be described in words alone.

At the sight of this figure, a sense of insignificance welled up within it.

[How is this possible!? Even the unfathomable Demonic Phoenix couldn’t exert such pressure on me.] However, after a moment, as if realizing something, its face suddenly changed drastically as a look of horror appeared in the depths of its eyes.

“Tree… Monster…” Its incredulous shout echoed like a thunder clap, shaking the sky and the ground.

At this moment, seemingly in response to this towering giant, the mist swirling across the sky suddenly rolled back, vaguely revealing a part of the towering trunk.

However, just that section of the trunk shook the countless Mutant Beasts to the core.

The trunk resembled a Dragon, soaring straight into the sky. It was so huge that just one glance was not enough to gauge its height. It felt like it was connected straight to the starry sky.

Slowly raising their gazes, the Mutant Beasts also saw that every inch of the enormous Tree was glowing, exuding a majestic sanctity.

However, this wasn’t all. 

Seemingly intending to display its current power, a phantom appeared behind this Towering Tree.

Compared to its True Body, this phantom appeared several times larger, like a Towering Tree that had been magnified many folds.

Yu Zi Yu’s True Body was already terrifying, but after being magnified several times, it became even more towering.

At this moment, not only the Steel Progenitor but also the powerful entities hidden across the continent fell silent. They all stared fixedly at the distant horizon, where under the starry sky, the most dazzling yet obscure silhouette of the Towering Tree appeared.

“I have returned!” A voice spoke. It was like the voice of God descending on Earth. It carried an indescribably dignity and it echoed through the world.
