"What are you planning to take away?" Ice Empress was impatient by nature. Hearing Huo Yuhao's unhurried voice, she looked at him with considerable impatience and asked.

"The Titan Snow Demon King." Huo Yuhao stopped keeping them in suspense and slowly spoke the name.

Snow Empress and Ice Empress were both stunned. Huo Yuhao then explained, "I studied this carefully. Among the soul beasts of the Far North, only the Titan Snow Demon King possesses both an exceptionally strong ice attribute and spiritual attribute, perfectly matching my two martial souls. If I can establish a partnership with him, I will definitely be able to go farther in the future."

Snow Empress fell silent for a while before asking Huo Yuhao, "Can you be sure it will be a partnership, rather than tricking A-Tai into sacrificing himself for you for nothing?"

Huo Yuhao released the mental restraint on Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm emerged and said to Snow Empress and Ice Empress, "Am I not the best example? Besides, I can even abandon part of my energy and leave Huo Yuhao now. It will be the same after the Titan Snow Demon King enters Huo Yuhao's body in the future."

Snow Empress and Ice Empress exchanged a glance. Then Snow Empress said to Ice Empress, "How about this? Bing'er, go gather everyone. Call Xiao Bai and A-Tai as well."

Snow Empress was the absolute ruler of the entire Far North. Once Ice Empress conveyed her will, nearly all soul beasts above eighty thousand years old in the Far North quickly arrived.

The Titan Snow Demon King and Xiao Bai, the Ice Bear King, sat facing each other, both occupying the third seats. It seemed as though the Titan Snow Demon King had been informed by Ice Empress beforehand and knew this meeting was primarily about him. He looked curiously at Snow Empress.

After everyone had arrived, Snow Empress communicated with the Titan Snow Demon King in the language of soul beasts, telling him about the Far North's current predicament and Huo Yuhao's proposal.

The Titan Snow Demon King looked at Huo Yuhao suspiciously, but when his gaze passed over the Ice God Eye on Huo Yuhao's arm, much of that suspicion faded.

"It is not just the two of you who find heavenly tribulations difficult. Every time I undergo one, I also wonder how many more rounds I can withstand with my abilities." The Titan Snow Demon King looked at Snow Empress. No longer deliberately using the soul beast language Huo Yuhao could not understand, he spoke to her in human language.

"If there is a suitable opportunity, seeking change truly is something the Far North must do. It's just..." The Titan Snow Demon King's gaze fell on Huo Yuhao as he continued speaking to Snow Empress.

"Does this human truly have the ability to bear our hopes? The Path to Godhood—even among humans, the most recent person to walk it appeared ten thousand years ago. Why should he be the only one in these ten thousand years?"

Snow Empress remained silent. The Titan Snow Demon King's words were not without reason; this was what she had been hesitating over all along.

At that moment, Huo Yuhao cut in. He first activated the Void Eye's ability and, without the Titan Snow Demon King noticing, climbed onto the Titan Snow Demon King's head and spoke into his ear.

"You big ape, why are you so damn long-winded? Let me ask you this: if your choices are slowly waiting to die or gambling on me, where you might die or might live, which would you choose?" After speaking into the Titan Snow Demon King's ear, Huo Yuhao once again descended from his body without entering his perception.

Snow Empress and Ice Empress looked at each other in bewilderment. Since when had the Titan Snow Demon King become so mild-tempered? He was letting a human he did not even trust climb all over him.

This was also the shared thought of everyone in the Far North except the Titan Snow Demon King.

From the Titan Snow Demon King's perspective, however, it was terrifying. A human who looked as though he could kill him with a single puff of breath had suddenly appeared atop his head without him noticing at all.

Then, after saying his piece, the human had suddenly gone down again, once more beyond his perception.

For a moment, both the Titan Snow Demon King and the other soul beasts of the Far North came to the same conclusion: "This ordinary-looking human is very powerful."

The Titan Snow Demon King was silent for a moment. When he looked at Huo Yuhao again, there was a little more trust in his eyes. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm also began persuading him.

"If we soul beasts wish to truly escape the fear of death, becoming gods is our only path. But our road to godhood... all of you stand at the pinnacle of cultivation, so you should be able to sense that it has already been severed."

The Titan Snow Demon King stood up and looked down at Huo Yuhao, who appeared tiny at his feet. He impatiently waved at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual body and said, "Enough. Stop talking. I agree to join your God-Making Plan."

Snow Empress nodded, then looked toward the gathered soul beasts beside her and spoke. "Then, in my capacity as ruler of the Far North, I issue this command: no clan may actively harm the outstanding descendants of the Titan Snow Demon Clan, for their clan leader has willingly given up his freedom to seek a way forward for the Far North!"

A trace of emotion appeared in the Titan Snow Demon King's eyes. With Snow Empress's prestige, after these words today, the Titan Snow Demons in his clan above thirty thousand years old would no longer be actively attacked by other stronger ice-type soul beasts.

Snow Empress turned to the Titan Snow Demon King. Her tone was calm, yet tinged with reluctance. "A-Tai, since you have decided to walk this path, do not resist in any way later. If you are going to do it, then do it to the utmost."

The Titan Snow Demon King nodded, then turned his gaze toward Huo Yuhao and extended his hand to him.

"Extend your hand. I will sacrifice myself to you." The Titan Snow Demon King's voice entered Huo Yuhao's ears. This time, it contained none of the ferocity belonging to one of the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North, only the gentleness with which he regarded a partner.

Huo Yuhao extended his hand as well—the arm bearing the Ice God Eye. As the hands of man and beast touched, an icy blue glow shimmered around the Titan Snow Demon King. All the power in his body underwent its ultimate sublimation in that moment of sacrifice.

At the same time, Huo Yuhao's Ice God Eye also shone with the blue radiance of the ice element.

Spiritual power and the ice element poured into Huo Yuhao's body simultaneously, while the Titan Snow Demon King's soul ring settled over his first soul ring.

"As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, I already possess the ability to condense a soul bone at a designated location on my own. Your offensive methods are currently too limited, so I will condense a complete right arm bone for you." As the Titan Snow Demon King finished speaking, a blue glow surged into Huo Yuhao's right arm.

Huo Yuhao only felt the Titan Snow Demon King's immense spiritual power instantly pour into his Spirit Eye.

At the same time, the ice-attribute martial soul granted by Sky Dream Ice Silkworm underwent a drastic change under the nourishment of the Ice God Eye...
