Qin Chuan fought off repeated Beast God Cult attacks while the Shadow Dragon carried him toward the Far North Icefield. Elsewhere in Beastfolk Territory, the Lionfolk challenged Hand of the Dead’s right to cooperate with the Beast God Cult, leaving Lord Toynbee under pressure to prove his faction’s strength.

• The Shadow Dragon warned Qin Chuan that Beast God Cult forces were approaching after the Beast God revealed his location through a Divine Oracle.

Toynbee revealed that the Far North Icefield held the Elemental Lord's power and persuaded the Beastfolk tribes to join an expedition. The Beast God Cult shaman ended the tense conference by ordering each race to send five hundred elites to form a joint army.

• Toynbee recognized that the Beast God Cult had helped the Lion Race ambush the Hand of the Dead and gathered its leaders and the Wolf Race for an explanation.
• Toynbee used a map to argue that the Beastfolk could not conquer human territory without the Elemental Lord's power, and the shaman realized that power might lie in the Far North Icefield.

Meanwhile, Church-issued missions sent players toward the Far North Icefield, while Apex Guild members planned a team to help Song Ling rescue the Lord of Frost.

• Toynbee explained that the Otherworlder was the Hand of the Dead's enemy after Beastfolk soldiers reported his advance into Tiger Race territory.

• After learning that many players were pursuing the Lord of Frost’s power, Season Star urged the group to hurry toward Song Ling’s quest.

Qin Chuan and the Shadow Dragon crossed the Far North Icefield toward the source of Shadow Power, while rival forces converged on Lord of Frost’s Sealed Domain. Qin Chuan entered the deadly Iceblade Zone alone, and the Beastfolk coalition faced Toynbee over a crystal that could help them pass through it.

• The Shadow Dragon sensed that the journey would help it advance, but Qin Chuan planned to store it away before reaching the dangerous final stretch.
• Qin Chuan learned that players, the Church, the Beastfolk, and other groups were heading toward the sealed domain; he considered giving Lord of Frost’s power to Song Ling if he obtained it.
• Qin Chuan put away the Shadow Dragon and crossed the Iceblade Zone using Shadow Stealth.
• A Beastfolk scout was shredded by the ice blades, and Clemens concluded that the coalition could not safely cross directly.
• Toynbee revealed a fragment of Lord of Frost’s body that could protect its holder from the ice blades, then refused to hand it over when Clemens demanded it.

Clemens and Toynbee led the Beastfolk alliance through the Iceblade Zone under a barrier, while Song Ling’s group crossed safely with help from Ice Elemental Spirits. Rakshasa Madblood found the Lord of Frost’s throne but abandoned his approach after Night Roaming God appeared beneath it.

• Clemens and Toynbee agreed to cross the Iceblade Zone together, and Toynbee used a crystal to protect the allied army.

Dies Martin granted Qin Chuan a temporary God's Chosen State as the Beast God Cult, the Church of the Gods, and Toynbee fought over the power at the Far North Icefield. While Qin Chuan waited for the forces to weaken each other, Song Ling's companions considered a risky attempt to reach the throne.

• Dies Martin sent Qin Chuan a temporary God's Chosen effect through the Apostle's Seal, and Qin Chuan decided to wait in hiding for the battle to develop.

• Qin Chuan retreated with Shadow Stealth and remained alert for other forces while planning to claim the power after the fighting.
• Season Star, Night Cherry Tangle, Tiga Lingyu, and Song Ling discussed their chances as Mirror warned that reaching the throne could leave them only five seconds before their enemies attacked.
• Night Cherry Tangle urged the group to take the risk and let Mirror open a Teleportation Gate toward the throne.

Qin Chuan cleared away the rival forces and players from the battlefield so Song Ling’s group could pursue their mission. With the Beast God Cult shaman, Toynbee, and six Church statues now focused on him, Qin Chuan prepared to strike back.

• Qin Chuan warned Song Ling’s group about the dangers, assigned their roles, and led them to shelter behind the ice blades.

• The shaman and Toynbee persuaded the six remaining statues to form a temporary truce and search for Qin Chuan, who revealed himself and waited until they had surrounded him before declaring it was his turn.

Qin Chuan invoked the Apostle's Seal and gained a powerful God's Chosen blessing, then fought the statues and the Beast God Cult shaman as the threat of Church reinforcements grew. After crippling four statues with Shadow Prison Kill, he turned his attention to Toynbee, who found himself facing a shadow.

Qin Chuan used the Apostle's Seal to fight the Church statues, Toynbee, and a Beast God Cult shaman with Divine Damage, while Death Bringer supplied him with energy and drained the statues. As more statues arrived, Qin Chuan drew them toward the throne.

• Qin Chuan used Shadow Flying Daggers, Corrosive Rain, and his shadow to damage the statues and force his enemies to unite against him.

• The Church sent new statues to the Far North Icefield, and Qin Chuan signaled Death Bringer to help.
• Death Bringer restored Qin Chuan's energy and extracted the first group's remaining Divine Energy, while Qin Chuan fought the new statues and retreated toward the throne.

• A pillar of fire erupted from the pit and sent shattered Church statues flying into the air.

Qin Chuan led Toynbee and the Beast God Cult shaman into Ragnaros’s trap-filled underground passage while secretly guiding his allies toward an ice elemental’s hidden route. After defeating the two pursuers and bargaining with the Death Bringer, he asked it to send another lurking figure to the Respawn Point, prompting a plea for mercy.

• Qin Chuan descended into the pit with Toynbee and the Beast God Cult shaman, then brought Season Star, Night Cherry Tangle, and the others down under cover of Shadow Veil.
• Toynbee and the Beast God Cult shaman chased Qin Chuan through the passage, where Ragnaros’s Flame Arrows wounded Toynbee with Origin Essence and Qin Chuan’s shadow attacked them with throwing knives.
• Song Ling received guidance from the Ice Elemental Spirit and found a secret passage in an ice wall, so Qin Chuan decided to finish off Toynbee and the Beast God Cult shaman.
• Qin Chuan and his shadow used Shadow Prison Kill to defeat Toynbee and the Beast God Cult shaman, and the Death Bringer collected their Divinity Power and gave Qin Chuan a crystal.
• Qin Chuan asked the Death Bringer to send a figure hiding near the pit wall to the Respawn Point, and the figure called out, asking President Night Roaming God for a chance.

Qin Chuan sent Rakshasa Madblood back to the Respawn Point and continued exploring the cavern beneath the throne with his companions. The group passed through the ice barrier and headed toward the sealed area, where they joked about Qin Chuan’s honesty and popularity.

• Rakshasa Madblood surrendered and asked to join the mission, but Qin Chuan rejected him and killed him with a throwing knife.

Qin Chuan and Song Ling’s party fought through the Far North Icefield as berserk Ice Elementals attacked, while Qin Chuan suspected Ragnaros was guarding the Shadow Power. After Fate of Darkness warned him of an attack from above, Qin Chuan dodged the strike and ordered Evergreen to keep Song Ling alive as the group pressed on.

• Season Star and the others failed to uncover gossip about Qin Chuan, and a thunderclap after his denial prompted Evergreen to accuse him of a guilty conscience.
• Song Ling warned the party of a dangerous area ahead, then spotted a group of level-sixty Ice Elementals charging through the passage.

Qin Chuan advised the Apex Guild members on choosing secondary classes before leading them deeper beneath the Far North Icefield. They reached the Frost Giants’ tomb, where Qin Chuan swiftly defeated the Resurrected Frost Giant King, and the group prepared to break through the ice toward Song Ling’s quest destination.

• Qin Chuan advised Season Star and the others to use secondary classes to balance their strengths and weaknesses, and explained that advancement certificates could drop from bosses.

• Season Star offered to blast through the ice with Destroyer, while Qin Chuan inspected the Frost Giant King’s loot and reacted with surprise.

After defeating the Epic-grade boss, Qin Chuan gave the Frost Guardian class-change certificate to Tiga Lingyu and led the group deeper into the ice. They found a Legend-grade Restless Flame, a living bomb with a devastating self-destruct skill, blocking their way.

• Qin Chuan offered the Frost Guardian certificate to the group, but Season Star, Night Cherry Tangle, Evergreen, Mirror, and Song Ling declined because they wanted secondary classes better suited to their builds.
• Mirror said she wanted an explorer secondary class, and Qin Chuan promised to look for one; Tiga Lingyu accepted the certificate to strengthen her defense.
• Qin Chuan told Season Star to use the Destroyer to break through the ice and take the group farther down.
• Season Star blasted through the ice and safely landed the group on a lower layer, where Song Ling spotted a boss emerging from a block of ice.
• The group identified the boss as the level-70 Legend-grade Restless Flame, whose Super Self-Destruct skill could unleash its enormous attack power.
