My Sincerity

Huo Yuhao raised a hand and stroked Little White's nose. "Be good. I'll grill fish for you from now on."

"Really?!" Little White's bear eyes immediately widened with excitement. He had been craving the delicacies from his memories terribly. Grandfather's cooking had improved even further after becoming a god, but grilled fish was still the most delicious.

"Of course. I never lie." Huo Yuhao nodded, then turned toward the two women who had remained silent.

"Snow Emperor, Ice Empress, it's a pleasure to meet you." Huo Yuhao smiled, revealing his first heartfelt smile since returning to twenty thousand years ago.

"Human, what exactly is going on?" Snow Emperor stared frostily at the boy before her, who looked only twelve or thirteen. His aura was very gentle, and she could even vaguely sense an intimacy originating from their very essence. Everything about him seemed to speak of closeness, but it was too strange—so strange that Snow Emperor instinctively rejected the feeling.

Seeing Snow Emperor's wariness, Huo Yuhao felt a dull ache in his heart. Fortunately, he had long prepared himself for such a situation. One deep breath was enough to compose himself.

"As you can see, Er Bai is also Little White. They possess the same soul imprint. Once they come within a certain distance of each other, they share their consciousness and memories. As for how Er Bai came into being, you can let Little White tell you slowly. He knows nearly everything about you, Ice Empress, and me."

Huo Yuhao pointed at the two nearly identical bear heads and smiled.

"I'll believe you for now. But if I find out you dared to deceive me, you won't want to know the consequences." Snow Emperor's expression was icy. The boy's appearance and Little White's earlier state were simply too bizarre. She truly could not completely lower her guard.

"Mm. This time, I came with sincerity." As Huo Yuhao spoke, he took out a soul tool storage ring.

With a thought, a set of deep-blue, crystal-clear armor brimming with life force appeared in midair.

The instant the armor appeared, the surrounding temperature plummeted once again. This was already the core of the Far North, with Snow Emperor and Ice Empress—two formidable soul beasts of ultimate ice—stationed here. Under normal circumstances, the temperature here could scarcely fall any lower.

"Ice Extreme War God Armor!"

"Ice Extreme Divine Crystal!" *2

The moment Little White saw the armor Huo Yuhao had revealed, he shouted excitedly. Back then, with the Ice Extreme War God Armor's enhancement, Grandfather had simply been invincible in this world!

But Snow Emperor and Ice Empress saw even more. This armor had been forged from pure Ice Extreme Divine Crystal—and not just any Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, but the most precious kind, the kind containing ice spirits. Its value was simply immeasurable. More importantly, wherever Ice Extreme Divine Crystal of such quality could form, there had to be a Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave nearby, containing vast quantities of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow!

"That's right. This armor was forged from Ice Extreme Divine Crystal that grew alongside Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow."

"With Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, Ice Empress will be able to safely endure her four-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation, while Snow Emperor will be able to heal her previous injuries and safely face her seven-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation." Huo Yuhao spoke with certainty. Ice Empress and Snow Emperor had told him all this in his previous life.

"The Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Cave there still has quite a considerable supply of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. More than twenty stalks should be enough." Huo Yuhao considered it for a moment before speaking. The memories were too distant, and he could not recall the exact amount for the moment.

"Tell me the location. Whatever you want, name it." Ice Empress stopped Snow Emperor, who was about to speak, and addressed Huo Yuhao. Snow Emperor had been injured and failed to pass her seven-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation entirely because she had helped Ice Empress endure hers. If someone had to pay the price, Ice Empress hoped it would be herself.

"No, that's not right! If you were able to obtain Ice Extreme Divine Crystal, that means you also possess ultimate ice. Then why don't you absorb it yourself?" Because of that intimacy she sensed at their very essence, Snow Emperor was even more wary of Huo Yuhao. She considered matters far more rationally.

Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow was also an incomparably precious heavenly treasure for ice-attributed soul masters. Why would this human not keep it for himself, instead giving it to two soul beasts opposed to humanity?

"There's no rush. I said I came with sincerity. I once possessed ultimate ice, but I no longer do. As for the specifics, you can ask Little White."

"Furthermore, once your injuries recover, Little White can tell you the method for condensing yin-yang dual soul cores. When I broke through to Titled Douluo and Ultimate Douluo before, I respectively completed the condensation of my second and third soul cores. Both were formed using the yin-yang dual soul core method. Little White participated in both condensation processes as well, so he should be able to offer you some experience." Huo Yuhao spoke openly. Anyone could hear the sincerity in his words.

"State your condition." Snow Emperor once again pressed Ice Empress back, blocking her behind herself. The method for condensing yin-yang dual soul cores was no longer something Ice Empress could repay. Whether this person spoke truthfully or not, Snow Emperor had attempted to condense yin-yang dual soul cores before. She had experience; she would know whether it was true after trying.

"I want to meet Sea Princess Eve." Huo Yuhao stated the purpose of his journey. He needed spiritual power—an enormous amount of spiritual power.

There were only a few ways to obtain a vast amount of spiritual power in a short time.

First, Brother Tianmeng was still in the Star Dou Great Forest. Without sufficient strength or the aid of powerful comrades like Snow Emperor, it was simply impossible. Besides, Brother Tianmeng's million-year soul power and heaven-and-earth origin energy had not yet been fully absorbed. Di Tian and the others would never let him go easily.

Unless Snow Emperor truly condensed yin-yang dual soul cores, then donned the Ice Extreme War God Armor and forcibly seized him. But then the enemy she faced might very well change from Di Tian to the Silver Dragon King. He did not want Snow Emperor to encounter any danger again.

Second, the Icefire Yin Yang Well. Autumnwater Dew had miraculous effects on spiritual power, but its effects were far inferior to Brother Tianmeng's. The other herbs would need to be refined into pills, which would also require making a pill furnace. It would be better to go later. As for the things inside, they could not be obtained through ordinary means.

The last method was to trade directly. The golden pearls condensed from Sea Princess's tears contained the purest spiritual power. Once absorbed, they could be used directly, freeing up all those methods that required massive amounts of spiritual power.

"You want to meet Sea Princess? You gave us so much information, and your request is only to meet Sea Princess?" Snow Emperor found it difficult to believe.

"No. In fact, I haven't given anything yet." As Huo Yuhao spoke, he put the Ice Extreme War God Armor back into the storage ring, then walked toward Snow Emperor with the ring in hand.

Snow Emperor involuntarily took a step back, but Ice Empress stood behind her, leaving her no room to retreat further.

Huo Yuhao gently took her hand. The extreme cold instantly froze his fingertips black, but they quickly returned to normal under the effects of Spirit Life Gold.

An utterly ordinary soul tool storage ring fell into her palm.
