Chapter Summaries

Snow Empress led Xiao Ze and the others to a hidden Ice Snow Palace in the Far North, where Shui Bing'er alone could pass through its barrier. After she entered and touched the palace’s ice sculpture, it began to glow, signaling the start of a possible Deity inheritance.

• Snow Empress told Xiao Ze that she had repeatedly failed to break the barrier surrounding the Ice Snow Palace, and she led the group to it through the Far North.
• The group found the palace beneath a split mountain, while Ice God watched them from the God Realm and recognized the presence of Angel God, Sea God, and an unfamiliar Deity.
• Xiao Ze learned from the God of Agriculture that Ice God was likely observing them, and Ning Rongrong struck her forehead against the barrier while trying to enter.
• Shui Bing'er discovered that she could pass through the barrier when the others could not, and Snow Empress watched her enter the palace.
• Shui Bing'er approached the ice sculpture inside the palace and touched its abdomen, causing mist and ice-blue light to appear.

Shui Bing'er met Ice God in the Ice Snow Palace and received her inheritance, learning that Snow Empress was born from Ice God’s divine power. After the group left the Far North and separated to pursue their trials, Xiao Ze decided to begin traveling across the continent with Qian Renxue and Shui Yue'er.

• Ice God appeared before Shui Bing'er, offered her the Ice God Position, and placed a divine staff mark on her forehead.

• Shui Bing'er left the Ice Snow Palace and thanked Snow Empress for bringing her there, while Xiao Ze said the Ice God inheritance suited her.
• The group spent a week helping Snow Empress in the Far North, then departed with Snow Empress and Xiao Bai, leaving the Titan Snow Demon King to manage the Far North alone.
• After Snow Empress became Shui Bing'er's Soul Spirit and went with Xiao Bai to undergo her God Trial, the other women departed, leaving Qian Renxue and Shui Yue'er with Xiao Ze.
• Xiao Ze said he missed the women who had left, then agreed with Qian Renxue to set off and travel across the continent.

Xiao Ze, Qian Renxue, and Shui Yue'er traveled through the former Heaven Dou Empire, witnessing how the Spirit Hall Empire’s reforms had improved ordinary people’s lives and uncovering abuses by local officials. As they prepared to return to Spirit City to report their findings, Huo Wu discovered an unusually hot volcano at sea and flew toward it, suspecting it held a Deity Inheritance.

• Xiao Ze, Qian Renxue, and Shui Yue'er visited a village near the Far North, where an old man explained that Xiao Ze’s cold-resistant seeds and the Soul Spirit Tower had helped villagers survive.

• After four months traveling through the former Heaven Dou Empire, Xiao Ze and Qian Renxue decided to return to Spirit City and brief Bibi Dong on the reforms.
• Huo Wu reached a remote islet near the former Star Luo Empire and spotted a volcano rising from the sea.
• Huo Wu flew toward the volcano, but its heat proved far greater than that of an ordinary eruption.

Huo Wu and Scarlet King fought a Flame Giant Python made of fire energy at a strange, continuously erupting volcano. After nearly half an hour of battle, the python grew dim and the crater cooled, making it safer for Huo Wu to approach.

• Huo Wu and Scarlet King suspected the volcano might contain a Fire God inheritance, and Scarlet King flew toward its crater to investigate.
• A Flame Giant Python emerged from the magma and attacked Scarlet King; he escaped and explained that it was an energy being formed from concentrated fire energy.
• Huo Wu struck the python with her Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal, and she and Scarlet King attacked it with Ultimate Fire.
• When the python absorbed the volcano's fire energy, Scarlet King urged Huo Wu to keep wearing it down so the crater would become safer to enter.
• Huo Wu used her Blazing Soul Domain to evade the python and continue attacking, and after nearly half an hour the creature grew dim as the crater's temperature fell.

Huo Wu and Scarlet King defeated the Flame Giant Python and entered a sealed cave, where they met the Fire God. Huo Wu accepted his inheritance and left, while the Fire God agreed to tell her where his wife's inheritance could be found.

Ning Rongrong received the Star Goddess’s God Position in a dream and discovered its mark and first trial after waking. Half a month later, Huo Wu brought the Water God’s inheritance to Sea God Island, but Bo Saixi refused to accept it.

• Ning Rongrong dreamed of a happy life with Xiao Ze before the Star Goddess appeared and offered her a God Position.
• Ning Rongrong accepted, and the Star Goddess placed a star-map imprint on her forehead as her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda glowed.
• Ning Rongrong woke to find the same imprint on her forehead and heard the Star Goddess’s first trial: understand the movement of the stars.
• Huo Wu and Scarlet King arrived at Sea God Island, where Huo Wu offered Bo Saixi the Water God’s inheritance.
• Bo Saixi refused the inheritance, and Huo Wu argued that becoming a god would let Bo Saixi see and help the Sea God.

• Huo Wu and Scarlet King set out to take Bo Saixi to the Water God's inheritance, and Bo Saixi agreed to go after Huo Wu threatened Sea God Island.
• Dugu Yan led Ye Lingling through the wilderness to a Flower Sea she had heard about, and Ye Lingling was amazed by its beauty.
• Dugu Yan explained that the flowers had existed since the nearby village was founded and never seemed to wither.
• Ye Lingling suspected the lone tree at the Flower Sea's center was connected to a Deity Inheritance, and she and Dugu Yan settled there for the night.
• After Dugu Yan fell asleep, Ye Lingling quietly crossed the Flower Sea and stood before the tree under the moonlight.

Ye Lingling discovered that the ordinary tree in the Flower Sea was a portal to the Goddess of Revival, who offered her the inheritance of her God Position. She accepted, and the Goddess marked her forehead before sending her on her way.

Xiao Ze completed the God of Agriculture’s fourth trial by enduring a powerful poison, while Huo Wu brought Bo Saixi to meet the Water God about becoming her inheritor. The Water God sought Poseidon’s approval, and Poseidon revealed that Bo Saixi was descended from his child with his first love.

• Xiao Ze ate a poisonous mushroom, survived its effects with Jiaoyue’s healing, and named it the Soul Shattering Mushroom with the God of Agriculture.
• Huo Wu brought Bo Saixi to the Water God’s palace and urged the Water God to consider Bo Saixi as an inheritor.
• The Water God judged Bo Saixi suitable but said she needed to discuss the succession with Poseidon because Bo Saixi was the Sea God’s High Priest.

• The Water God questioned Poseidon about Bo Saixi’s Sea God Martial Soul, and Poseidon revealed that Bo Saixi was a descendant of the child left by his first love.

Poseidon revealed that he had once intended Bo Saixi to inherit the Sea God Position but changed course because of Asura God’s plan for Tang San, and Water God agreed to offer Bo Saixi her own God Position. Xiao Ze returned from the God of Agriculture’s trial and reunited with Ning Rongrong, who revealed that she had obtained the Star Goddess Position.

Huo Wu brought Bo Saixi to Spirit Hall after securing both the Fire God and Water God inheritances, and Xiao Ze learned that more of his companions had obtained God Positions.

• Xiao Ze arranged for Tang Xiaoxia to study and receive care at Spirit Hall, then told Ye Lingling he suspected the killer was Tang San.

Xiao Ze learned that Tang San had massacred a village and organized a large Spirit Hall Empire force to capture him. The Speed Clan searched around Heaven Dou City and finally spotted Tang San, who remained unaware that he had been found.

• Xiao Ze concluded that Tang San's village massacre was his own doing, not a requirement of Asura God's God Trial, and decided to capture him.

• Bai He warned the scouts to watch for blood-red hair and avoid alerting Tang San if they found him.
• After three days of searching, a weary Speed Clan Soul King spotted a man who looked like Tang San and confirmed his identity without revealing himself.
