Chapter Summaries

Yan trained at Skywater Academy to prepare for the dangers of Sea God Island, building his resistance to water, waves, and cold as he pursued a path toward the snow-capped summit. After enduring the academy’s rivers and waterfall, he was thrown nearly a hundred meters by the Dragon Gate Waterfall and stopped for the day.

• Yan learned that Skywater Academy had approved his request to use its simulated cultivation grounds and invited Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and the new Skywater Team to swim at Crystal Lake.
• Yan trained by walking against waves raised by students in Crystal Lake and the river, gradually learning to stay steady against rapids and currents.
• Yan reached the Dragon Gate Waterfall and began trying to climb its slick stones against the falling water.
• Yan repeatedly fell into the pool, then used Dawn to analyze the stones and water until he managed to stand on one and face the waterfall.
• The waterfall blasted Yan nearly a hundred meters into the water, and he ended his training when the sun began to set.

Yan crossed the waterfall and climbed Tianming Snow Mountain to its summit, where he began refining his own Core Flame in the hostile ice and snow. His flames drew on the sun’s power and began melting the snow around him.

• Yan repeatedly challenged the waterfall, then split its cascade with his crimson Soul Power and landed in the current above it.
• Yan continued up the snowmelt river, broke through ice, and climbed to the snow-covered summit while Skywater Academy experts followed behind him.

• Yan drew on Bai Hechou’s example and began cultivating fiery Soul Power on the snow mountain.
• Yan’s flames reached beyond his body, drew on the sun’s power, and melted patches of snow and ice as a flame rose from the summit.

Yan mastered the shifting between Icy Flame and extreme heat, then offered Skywater Academy a choice of Spirit Hall rewards in exchange for its support. The dean decided to choose one of the offerings, though the chapter ended before revealing which box she selected.

• Yan turned his flames between icy white-blue Icy Flame and golden-red heat, gaining insight into rules and confidence about traveling to the Western Sea and Sea God Island.
• Skywater Academy's dean summoned Yan and asked what Spirit Hall could offer the academy in return for its support.
• Yan explained that the Royal Family's nearby influence made choosing a side risky, while his recent success had strengthened the academy's inclination toward Spirit Hall.
• Yan presented the dean with three boxes containing secret cultivation medicines, Soul Power cultivation methods, and soul skills, and allowed her to choose one.
• Yan warned that Skywater Academy could not accept Spirit Hall's gifts and then support both sides, and the dean reached toward a box after considering her choice.

Holy Son Yan arrived in Vast Sea City to prepare for his voyage into the Western Sea and receive a report on the preparations for reaching Sea God Island. After agreeing to a welcome banquet, he planned to visit the Great Soul Arena.

She shared what she knew about Sea God Island and the Three Great Rulers of the nearby seas, leaving Yan to refine his plans.

Hidden underwater, Yan deployed warships and ordered experts to prepare for a coordinated strike during the Polar Stillness Domain.

• The Demon Soul Great White Shark trapped three Evil Spirit Orcas in a vortex and attacked them with ice spikes, but the Evil Orca King arrived and forced it to retreat.

• The Evil Orca King wounded Bai Xiuxiu and tried to kill her, but Xiao Bai could not reach her in time.

Yan used a carefully planned clash involving the Evil Spirit Tiger Whale Clan and the Demon Soul Great White Sharks to bring Spirit Hall to Sea God Island for peace talks. Sea Witch exposed his scheme, prompting the Seven Holy Pillars and Spirit Hall’s Ten Elders to clash while Yan waited to see whether High Priestess Bo Saixi would appear.

• Darkness spread through the sea tornado, and Bo Saixi and Yan realized Bibi Dong’s new power was swallowing the ocean’s energy.
