"What's impossible about it?" Huo Yuhao said with a cheerful laugh.
"There are always more ways than difficulties. I'd guess there's some heavenly treasure in the Snow Empress Territory that can seal your origin, right?"
The moment Huo Yuhao finished speaking, the snowfall around them grew heavier!
Clearly, his words had struck a nerve with the Snow Empress!
The Ice Empress also turned her head slightly to look at the Snow Empress.
She wanted to know whether Huo Yuhao was telling the truth.
"What this human says is true. I did intend to take human form."
"I failed to form a Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core, and my origin was badly damaged. There's not a trace of hope that I can survive this Seven Hundred Thousand Year Heavenly Tribulation."
"And, as it happens, there's a hundred-thousand-year-old Snow Lotus in my territory."
The Snow Empress stopped there.
"Originally, I planned to help you survive your tribulation first, then take human form and cultivate anew. But on my way to find you, I sensed your aura had become chaotic."
"And by the time I arrived, you'd already been captured."
The Ice Empress sighed. "Even with your help, I wouldn't make it through. My origin was damaged too."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm popped out at that moment. "Why don't you both join the God-Making Project?"
"Taking human form and starting cultivation over is far too dangerous."
"Become dependent on a human? I'd rather return to nature." The Snow Empress coldly refused.
"Don't be so quick to turn me down. He's the person I chose, and he's my master now."
"His name is Huo Yuhao. I'm his Soul Ring now—and the only Wisdom Soul Ring on the entire continent!"
"Impossible!" the Ice Empress exclaimed in shock.
"Your fighting ability may be pitifully weak, but the energy within you is far beyond what this person here could withstand!"
"Ah, I'd rather not talk about it..."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm recounted what had happened to him over the years.
The Ice Empress and the Snow Empress fell silent.
Neither of them could survive this tribulation, either.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would soon return to nature.
"That's rough. You should've let me eat you back then. Maybe I'd have been able to survive this tribulation," the Ice Empress mocked.
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ignored her taunt and said earnestly, "I won't become a god through the God-Making Project, but if it succeeds, my lifespan will be endless."
"So I willingly became the Soul Ring of this little fellow before you—the Wisdom Soul Ring."
"Using everything I have!"
"To make a god!"
"But the result was beyond my expectations. He seems to be able to become a god even without my power."
"I just told you: he gained twenty levels in seven days."
"And on top of that, I gave him an extra Martial Soul slot!"
"A Martial Soul slot?!"
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress cried out at the same time.
With a Martial Soul slot, everything would be different!
It meant that once Huo Yuhao fused with them, he'd become a peerless genius with an Ultimate Attribute and Twin Martial Souls!
The odds of the God-Making Project succeeding would rise dramatically!
At that moment, the Snow Empress no longer wanted to attack.
She had decided to let the Ice Empress take this path!
[ Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing Option Two. Reward (Reasoning with Others x1) has been issued.] [Storage Space: True Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, Soul Skill Secret Technique: Combo Skill, Blue Hair x1, Divine Blessing x1, Reasoning with Others x1]
Hearing the notification, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief.
That meant the Snow Empress wouldn't attack again.
"I'm not bragging—the chances of the God-Making Project succeeding really are high!"
"Do you know why?"
"Because there's a god in his Sea of Consciousness!"
"An incomplete god, sure, but a god all the same!"
"He was already destined to become a god. Now he has me and a god helping him—why shouldn't he become a new god?"
Although the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt that the Grey Bead had come to compete with him for territory, that didn't stop him from singing its praises.
Besides, the Grey Bead really did contain a god's divine consciousness.
"What did you say?!"
"There's really a god in his Sea of Consciousness?"
The Ice Empress was a little excited. If it was true, then Huo Yuhao's chances of becoming a god really were high!
"Talk is cheap. I'll let you feel it for yourselves." With that, Huo Yuhao stopped concealing his aura!
He released 100 points of Divine Power!
Feeling that aura, the two Empresses no longer had the slightest doubt.
It was the same kind of aura they had sensed all those years ago!
Huo Yuhao smiled confidently. "If even I can't become a god, then who do you think in this world can?"
That was right. If even someone with his advantages couldn't become a god, could they really succeed by taking human form?
The Snow Empress asked herself.
The Ice Empress asked, "What are your chances?"
"This is a gamble from the start. What chances could there be?"
"Success or failure!"
"If you join us, our odds of success will be higher."
"If the Snow Empress joins, our odds will be even greater!"
"If you both join, our odds of success will be infinitely close to one hundred percent!"
"Both of us? Your body couldn't withstand that, could it?" the Ice Empress asked, puzzled.
She thought Huo Yuhao had already fused with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. If two more joined, wouldn't he burst?
"I've had a plan in mind for a long time. That won't be a problem."
"The question is whether you're willing to join."
With that, Huo Yuhao looked at the two Empresses.
"Bing'er, you should join. I'll pass." The Snow Empress took a step back.
She still didn't believe Huo Yuhao could withstand the power of both her and the Ice Empress.
She decided to let the Ice Empress have this chance.
"You're still thinking of taking human form and starting over, aren't you?" Huo Yuhao asked.
"Yes. How will I know if I don't try?" the Snow Empress replied.
"There's something I think I should tell you." Huo Yuhao paused, then continued, "About the gods."
"The gods?"
They clearly hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to know anything about the gods.
Huo Yuhao nodded. "That's right. The gods."
"There are two ways to become a god."
"The first way is simple, yet difficult."
"Inherit an existing godhood. That's simple—you just need someone in the Divine Realm to take an interest in you."
"The difficult part is getting them to take an interest."
"After that, there's the God Trial. Complete it, and you'll gain a godhood."
"And become a god."
When Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he looked at the Snow Empress.
"I see." The Snow Empress merely nodded, making no other move.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao decided it was time to bring out the heavy guns.
Otherwise, if the Snow Empress didn't join the God-Making Project, he'd lose out badly.
He'd lose a Soul Ring that was nearly seven hundred thousand years old!
He'd also lose a Soul Bone that was nearly seven hundred thousand years old!
And he'd miss out on the Option Three reward, too!
The Ice and Snow Blessing Domain!
Thinking it through, Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
He'd be losing out big-time!
He had to bring out the heavy guns!!!
