Walking out of the room, Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered. He quietly reviewed his performance and Gu Yuena's changing expressions, and gained a sense of confidence.
Compared to the Silver Dragon King, what were his advantages?
Some intelligence involving the Divine Realm and the gods, Elder Electrolux's knowledge, the mark of the God-Imprint Throne, the calm temperament cultivated over ten thousand years... Not much, but it was enough.
Use strengths to compensate for weaknesses use small to leverage large!
Using the aura of the God-Imprint Throne's mark and a bit of intelligence to obtain a divine identity on equal footing that was not bad at all.
As for why a reincarnated god like him appeared so ordinary? Let's take a look at the reincarnated God King Tang doesn't that suddenly seem reasonable?
There were many problems he could not solve, but the current situation was not enough to push him to desperation.
Moreover, the Silver Dragon King was different from Tang San's divine consciousness. Huo Yuhao could not determine her state. He could not gamble on whether she could restore god-level power at a cost.
After all, even he, when truly pushed to a life-or-death moment, could bring out all of his origin energy from ten thousand years ago and maintain a near-divine level of combat power and Divine Origin realm spiritual power for a period of time.
And according to Emperor Tian, Gu Yuena's strength was above that of the Plane Lord and she would not be suppressed. If she paid a price to bring out the strength of a First-Class God... the consequences were conceivable. Thus, he could only adopt the method of intimidation.
The benefits were also obvious. From now on, as long as he did not expose himself, Gu Yuena would absolutely not carry out the plans from the original storyline. This was one form of insurance.
However, making Gu Yuena misunderstand that he was a deity came at a cost. Once exposed, she would probably try to kill him directly.
But nothing in this world was perfect. To gain the respect of the Silver Dragon King as a human, such a price was only right and proper.
"The pressure is a bit high."
Huo Yuhao shook his head inwardly, then smiled.
Compared to ten thousand years ago, when the Divine Realm's God King was personally watching him what was a little pressure like this now?
However, it was time to explain things to them.
In the Sea of Spirit, as soon as Huo Yuhao's spiritual incarnation appeared here, the three somewhat complex gazes were already directed at him.
This was not surprising. After all, he had never mentioned this matter involving his greatest secret to them. Even with the mark of the God-Imprint Throne, Skydream had not seen his memories.
"Yuhao, you..."
Ice Empress hesitated.
"Bingbing, don't ask."
Before Ice Empress could speak, Skydream said solemnly: "I believe Yuhao had a reason for keeping this from us."
Ice Empress shot him a sideways glance. "Hmph, are you saying that I don't trust Yuhao?"
Saying this, she paused, then turned her gaze back to Huo Yuhao and sighed. "I just don't want him to carry everything on his own."
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena had not communicated much, but it was enough for them to guess many things. For example, that she might know about deities, or even be a reincarnated deity herself.
And the mark deep within the Sea of Spirit they knew it was not simple, but they had not imagined it was so significant enough to make a god feel apprehension.
Thinking back now, the reason Yuhao had never thought about becoming a god back then was perhaps because he knew that becoming a god... would be a disaster for him.
"Because it involves deities, you couldn't help him, and he didn't want us to worry."
Electrolux directed his gaze toward the mark of the God-Imprint Throne in the depths, then looked at Huo Yuhao, his tone carrying a rare trace of reproach.
"But why did you not tell me? Just because you have grown up, do you think your teacher is no longer capable?"
He knew very well that Huo Yuhao might have certain special qualities, but he could not be a deity. That information had probably been given to him by the God-Imprint Throne.
"Elder Electrolux, I never thought that way. I still hope that after you are resurrected, you can take on a hundred enemies at once."
Huo Yuhao revealed a warm smile. "Besides, when people grow up, they always have their own privacy."
"But since I have come here, I do not intend to keep it from you. I won't disclose the specific source of the information. But are you prepared? Our enemy is a deity."
Skydream Iceworm chuckled. "If Yuhao you are a reincarnated deity, then of course we are not afraid. If you are not, then we have even less reason to be afraid. You have deceived a deity while being human — that deity doesn't seem so impressive after all."
"She is the Silver Dragon King — a dragon deity, the co-lord of spirit beasts."
Skydream Iceworm: "..."
Oh no. He had mocked the wrong deity. It felt like he had just insulted himself.
Ice Empress frowned. "I once heard Xue'er say that the true ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest is not Emperor Tian. Is it her?"
"That's right."
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered. He slowly spoke, telling them about the Abyss, Tang San's divine consciousness, the Plane Lord, the two Dragon Kings, the Dragon God, and other beings.
As for the Great Divine Realm — that was still too far away. If he was confident he could deal with it, he would bring it up later. If he ultimately could not, he would make arrangements for Elder Electrolux and the others.
"That is to say — they all have limitations?"
Skydream, who had thought the enemies were all max-level, unrestricted deities, completely and completely sighed in relief.
He had worried for nothing. Apart from the Abyss Saint Lord, this was just a bunch of cripples?
Fightable. Fightable.
"Yes. In fact, I suspect that Tang San's divine consciousness is in an even worse state than Elder Electrolux." Huo Yuhao glanced at Electrolux's spiritual form.
With ten thousand years of accumulation, Electrolux could now sense the outside world at any time. He had accumulated quite a bit of divine consciousness energy and remained awake. Compared to Tang San's divine consciousness, his state was much better.
It was the Golden Dragon King's divine core that was occupying most of Tang San's divine consciousness power. After all, every time Tang Wulin lifted his seal, it made Tang San's divine consciousness feel as if facing a great enemy.
Ice Empress asked in confusion: "Yuhao, why do you need to go before the Sea God's divine consciousness? If he rarely observes the outside world or learns of your existence from Tang Wulin, that will cause trouble, won't it?"
"Tang Wulin is about to break through his seal. That wisp of divine consciousness does not dare to be distracted. Moreover, with the trump cards that Elder Electrolux and I have prepared, I will be fine. As for the purpose..."
Huo Yuhao asked in rhetorical question: "Ice Empress, between the Silver Dragon King and me, who do you think poses a greater threat? And to me, between the Silver Dragon King and Tang San's divine consciousness, who is more dangerous?"
"Obviously the Silver Dragon King. Her state is better than everyone else's. If she is unsatisfied with the current situation and goes to extremes, the Spirit Transmission Tower could be destroyed because of her."
Ice Empress said this, then frowned. "You want to expose the Silver Dragon King's existence before Tang San's divine consciousness?"
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered. "That's right. Even if the Silver Dragon King had not come to Eastsea, I would have taken advantage of this moment when that wisp of divine consciousness is not very threatening to let her appear before Tang San's divine consciousness."
Shield the Silver Dragon King let her attract attention. At the same time, let the existence of Tang San and the Plane Lord constrain the Silver Dragon King, preventing Gu Yuena from flipping the chessboard. This was an idea he had ever since learning that Gu Yuena was in the Spirit Transmission Tower.
Unlike in his previous life, he could not cultivate in seclusion. If Tang San's divine consciousness changed and gained the ability to observe the outside world because he had not gone to the Divine Realm, he would eventually learn of his existence. Rather than waiting passively for that time, it would be better to proactively take control and minimise the risks.
"Moreover, now that she has taken the initiative to come, it is even more necessary to go to Eastsea Academy."
Huo Yuhao smiled. "If that one is truly aware, and the Silver Dragon King and I appear together before him based on my understanding of that one he will overthink."
Without Huo Yuhao needing to say more, Ice Empress and Skydream could both imagine that scene.
Huo Yuhao and the Silver Dragon King hung out, and the former was not a deity — obviously, he had been compiled by the latter. Perhaps even the Spirit Transmission Tower would appear to Tang San as something the Silver Dragon King had Huo Yuhao build — to help spirit beasts preserve their foundation and to rule the world ten thousand years later!
But then, thinking that in the Silver Dragon King's eyes, Huo Yuhao was a reincarnated deity... the two of them almost could not keep a straight face.
