Chapter Summaries

As his group prepared to wait for an opportunity to unify the continent and target the God Realm, Ling Qingyue formed a God-level Soul Ring in the Profound Ice Realm.

• Ice Empress claimed that the Power of Faith was rapidly advancing her cultivation and asked whether she could become the first in their family besides Zhao Linchuan to reach the God King realm.
• Zhao Linchuan explained that reaching the God King realm would require too much faith to gather without alerting the God Realm, then proposed hunting its gods and taking their Divine Cores.

As evening arrived, the Snow Empress intervened in the Ice Empress’s alarming wedding-night advice and took charge of preparing Ling Qingyue instead.

• Ling Qingyue absorbed the energy of her God-level Soul Ring, completing all nine Soul Rings on her Nine Sacred Snow Heart Lotus and strengthening her body, soul, and mastery of ice and snow.
