Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 481 -481-Snowbound Kingdom! Authority of the Frost Divine Empire

Briefly, Fiona felt that the hoard of Chaotic Artifacts she once prized had lost their luster.

Even the Divine Radiants, including the Prologue Sage, couldn't help but twitch their lips in disbelief.

Crafting Chaotic Artifacts was a notoriously grueling process, and the necessary divine materials were incredibly scarce.

Only the Crossbridge Empire possessed such reckless extravagance—mass-producing them as though they were mere common gear.

Naturally, this bounty was the result of thoroughly plundering the remains of the Council of the Dark Order.

Josephine stowed the artifacts away rather than distributing them on the spot.

Most of these elites already wielded weapons that complemented their skills. Her primary concern was maximizing the utility of these treasures.

Granting Chaotic Artifacts as rewards for military achievement would serve as a far greater incentive than a simple handout.

For an ancient Divine Radiant, possessing a single Chaotic Artifact could mean the difference between life and death during a Divine Oracle’s strike.

Furthermore, commanders such as Hunter Harry, Tina, and Pippin were exactly the ones currently lacking such high-tier gear.

With a massive reserve of Chaotic Artifacts secured and the seized divine-puppet constructs ready, a daring plan began to form in Josephine’s mind—

The creation of a specialized elite legion, outfitted with both constructs and Chaotic Artifacts simultaneously.

Demands for the deployment of the God Mountain Imperial Guard intensified daily, exerting silent pressure on the front lines.

Known as one of the most formidable forces in the Celestial Light God Realm, this legion had earned its terrifying status through blood. They required the utmost caution and meticulous preparation.

Meanwhile,

Reports of the Automaton Legion’s instantaneous annihilation swept like a gale toward the Chaotic Realm, the Starlight Colonnade, and even the Frostwinter Realm.

...

Frostwinter Realm

As far as one could see, the world was draped in silver—a limitless horizon of snow.

Ancient frozen forests stood still throughout the seasons, and in several territories, breathtaking ice worlds of pure crystal had naturally emerged.

The Frostwinter Realm existed as a sovereign and potent domain within the Celestial Light God Realm.

Lore suggested that when a supreme Sacred Realm being departed in the ancient era, a fragment of ultimate ice authority was left behind, manifesting into this very realm.

That power carried the essence of the Sacred Realm, evolving into an independent and self-contained system of frost laws.

The Frost Shrine served as the pinnacle of governance.

Beneath its rule, factions like the Noma Clan, the Frostwolf Clan, and the Kingdom of Lirus all pledged their loyalty to the Frost Shrine.

Should any foreign threat emerge, these powers would answer the Frost Shrine’s summons and stand united.

The capital of the Frostwinter Realm was situated within the strange Permafrozen Ice Sea.

This was a boundless ocean trapped in eternal ice, where towering cities of crystalline ice rose from the frozen depths.

At the edge of this frozen expanse stood a renowned fortress—the City of Vigil!

From its heights, one could view the entire heart of the Frostwinter Realm: the Icecrystal Palace.

"I just received word—the Automaton Legion of Olympian God Mountain was wiped out entirely by a mysterious power called the Crossbridge Empire!"

"Can that be true?"

"It is absolutely certain! More solid than this ice!"

"You might find it hard to believe, but I heard the Automaton Legion didn't even have time to speak before they were erased."

"Hiss... that's impossible, isn't it?"

"Didn't the Automaton Legion visit our Frostwinter Realm for exchange missions in the past?"

"They represented the prestige of Olympian God Mountain! If this is real, won't the people of God Mountain lose their minds?"

"I don't know if they've gone mad, but the royal capital is in an uproar. There are daily protests and petitions demanding the God Mountain Imperial Guard be sent to demolish the Crossbridge Empire."

"What exactly is this Crossbridge Empire? Are they truly that powerful, or is the news just exaggerated?"

"Heh, who knows where they came from. But I heard Olympian God Mountain brought this disaster upon themselves."

"Supposedly, Crossbridge was just a lower-realm empire. God Mountain went to great lengths to open a portal to attack them—only to be crushed instead. Now the door is locked from the other side, and they practically have to thank God Mountain for providing the entrance."

"That’s insane! Are powers from the lower realms really this terrifying now?"

Throughout the City of Vigil, such rumors were everywhere.

Amidst the swirling frost, the White Lady stood silently on the frozen surface of Apex Icecrystal Lake, catching every whisper.

She looked upon the familiar city and the lake beneath her—solidly frozen, yet containing a center crystal shaped like a natural drop of water.

However, that was not the most stunning sight.

What truly commanded attention was the Icecrystal Palace in the distance.

It was a magnificent display of massive waves—stretching billions of meters high—frozen in time at the very moment they appeared ready to crash.

These waves surged from every direction, curling inward to form a majestic cluster of frozen foam.

At the highest peak of these waves sat the sacred and grand ice-crystal palaces.

Carved as if by the divine hand of a supreme ice deity, their beauty and scale were enough to make anyone’s spirit tremble.

This was the legendary ground where the ultimate ice authority had descended.

Those frozen waves were harder than any known substance, for they held the complete Authority of Frost!

The White Lady’s eyes lingered on the central palace for a long time, her gaze swirling with complex emotions.

After a long silence,

She slowly retrieved an ice crystal that held a miniature ice world within its core.

She ignored the quasi–Sage Lord who had been tasked with her protection.

Then, she began to execute a secret, ancient art.

Suddenly, floods of incredibly deep laws and mysterious origin power erupted from the ice world fragment, flowing boundlessly into the White Lady’s form.

Her presence began to swell at a staggering pace!

Divine Radiant, second level...

Divine Radiant, third level... fourth level...

Divine Radiant, ninth level!

Quasi–Divine Oracle!

Then, meeting almost no resistance, she shattered the threshold and officially ascended to the Divine Oracle rank!

This shocking evolution caused the quasi–Sage Lord at her side to widen his eyes in total disbelief.

But the transformation did not stop there.

After reaching the Divine Oracle stage, the White Lady’s power continued to climb without hesitation.

Finally, it settled firmly at the quasi–Sage Lord level!

Frigid mist danced around her, making her silhouette appear even more enigmatic and formidable.

Simultaneously, the White Lady’s aura continued to expand, eventually dwarfing the quasi–Sage Lord beside her several times over!

Radiance from the ice crystals enveloped her. Ripples of law-origin power disrupted the stability of the Snowbound Kingdom she ruled, instantly silencing the chatter throughout the City of Vigil.

Many residents felt the shift and looked around, bewildered.

Icecrystal Palace

The Empress of the Snowbound Kingdom was meeting with her ministers to discuss the Crossbridge Empire's destruction of the Automaton Legion.

Suddenly, the Empress's icy-blue eyes seemed to pause for a fraction of a second, though she maintained her composure.

"The Celestial Light God Realm will know no peace from this point on. The situation is turning complicated."

"General Carmel, dispatch agents to Olympian God Mountain. Investigate the fall of the Automaton Legion and uncover the true origins of the Crossbridge Empire."

The Empress of the Snowbound Kingdom gave her command to a stunning woman dressed in ice-crystal armor.

The woman bowed low.

"I shall obey Your Majesty’s will!"

"Furthermore, seal the borders of the Snowbound Kingdom immediately and mobilize the Icecrystal Legions."

"Notify the Frostwolf Clan, the Noma Clan, the Kingdom of Lirus, and all vassals to prepare for total war!"

The Empress delivered her orders in quick succession.

In that moment, every minister within the hall stood frozen in shock.
