Cicada, Mantis and Oriole

After traveling for a while Tang San finally reached the outskirts of the Ice Bears territory, he knew that the plan he had in mind was a reckless one but if pulled off he would surely receive great benefits. He had used his Camouflage ability to completely erase his presence, he then used his Spiritual Detection to his limit and was able to cover a 5km radius. After searching for a while he finally found who he was looking for, the Ice Bear King's Son. He was the leader of a pack which was hunting a few Ice Jade Scorpions when he told that to the Ice Empress she was furious,

'How dare these barbarians hunt my kind, Tang San I want you to take revenge instead of me for my kind I'm pretty sure that the Ice Devil was preparing until now since the time we've become your spirit rings to lead an attack on mine and Snow Empress's clan. If we had come here even a little late then he would have surely wiped out our clans'(Ice Empress)

'I agree with you, we should not hesitate when killing him, it looks like power has blinded his eyes and now he has lost all reasoning, we can't let this continue any longer. If we don't kill the Ice Devil Titan King now then we can surely say that he will kill all those who stand in his way and become the sole King of the North'(Snow Empress)

"Well hope my plan works then, cause if it doesn't….. I don't know what to do"

He then made his way towards the Ice Bear's who were with the Ice Bear Prince(WN: It's actually the son of the Ice Bear King which is still the Ice Bear King but it's a little confusing so I'll just refer him as the Ice Bear Prince instead) and finding an Ice Bear at the outskirts of the area he killed it and using imitation and camouflage he took over the appearance and aura of the Ice Bear.

He made his way towards the prince and continued to follow it for the day, he was waiting for an opportunity where he could execute the next stage of his plan. Soon the hunting party made its way towards the outskirts of the Ice Bear's territory, they soon started hunting a few Ice Wolves that were living there.

While hunting Tang San made his way towards the Ice wolves, soon he stopped using his Ice Bear form and took on the appearance of an Ice Devil Titan who was 50,000-years-old, with the sudden appearance of a Titan the Ice Bears became panicked and a few even started to run away. Though he was using the form of an Ice Devil he had no abilities of an Ice Devil whatsoever so he only started to attack when those Ice Bears which fled couldn't see him anymore.

He used his Ice Explosion ability and killed all the Ice Bears apart from the prince, since they were all only in the thousand year range it was easy to do so. After killing all the Ice Bears only the prince was left, he used his Skull Bones ability - Dragon of Fate.

This enhanced his physical ability to a great extent with his Nine Hearts Body his physical ability was on par with a Spirit Saint's power. He didn't stop and also used all his Spirit Power and sent a punch towards the prince. The Prince who saw his brethren all killed in an instant by the 'Ice Devil Titan' was still in a state of shock and when he saw the Titan sending a punch towards him, his instincts screamed that he would die if he didn't dodge this. But unfortunately, he was a step too late and a fist with the power of a late-stage spirit saint landed directly on his body.

This directly killed the poor beast, Tang San knew that his bet finally paid off, he saw a Black Ring rise up from the body of the Ice Bear King.

After killing the Ice Bear King's son he didn't waste any more time and started to move towards Ice Devil Titan's territory, with his disguise though the other Ice Devil Titans could easily identify that he was not one of them he had no plans of meeting their clan members at all. He only had one goal right now and that was to make the Ice Bear King think that his son was killed by killed by one of the Ice Devil Titans. This would incite a war between the Ice Bear King and the Ice Devil Titan King and with the both of them being of the same power level his plan now had an 80% chance of success but this was only if there was no outside interference.

But considering that in the current North there was no other beast which had power equal to the two of them some beast interfering would be highly unlikely. He had kept his Golden Trident ready and was waiting for the two of them to weaken each other.

After reaching a considerate distance from the Ice Bear's territory he undid his illusion and went into stealth mode with his camouflage skill, though if a higher level beast was to scan the surroundings he had a high chance of getting caught so he didn't directly go towards the Ice Devil Titan Kings territory and was only waiting for the Ice Bear King to come and start its rampage.

Seeing his son's corpse along with the fact that his spirit ring was still there he would find it highly unlikely that a human was the cause of this and with the Ice Bears which had already fled who saw his Ice Devil Titan form informed him that a ten-thousand-year-old Ice Devil Titan being the cause of his son's death along with the anger and sadness inside of him he would lose his rationality and start a solo attack on the Ice Devil Titan King.

This was just like how a Mantis stalks the Cicada unaware of the Oriole behind it.
