Han Tianyi brought Huo Yuhao to Heaven Dou City to meet Mu Ye, the Body Sect Master, and secured Mu Ye’s approval for Huo Yuhao to learn the Body Sect’s secret arts. Mu Ye then agreed to take them to meet the blacksmith Zhen Hua, whom Huo Yuhao had not heard of.

• A Wind Baboon attacked the group, and Huo Yuhao killed it with a glance.

Huo Yuhao met Bei Bei and Tang Ya after killing a Wind Baboon in the Star Dou Great Forest, and learned that Tang Ya was the leader of the nearly extinct Tang Sect. He recognized the significance of her claim and was left considering the Tang Sect’s fate in this era.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm discovered Xiao Yin in Huo Yuhao’s Spirit Sea and learned that Xiao Yin was Huo Yuhao’s First Soul Spirit.
• As the fusion reached its critical moment, Huo Yuhao’s Mental Power halted thought across a hundred li of the Star Dou Great Forest.

• Xiao Yin demanded that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm address Huo Yuhao as Lord Yuhao, then argued that the silkworm lacked useful attack and control abilities.

• Wu Yang began absorbing the white Soul Ring, and Wu Ming thanked Huo Yuhao for helping his son find a suitable match.

After Huo Yuhao traveled ten thousand years into the past and met Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Leng Yaozhu told him about the historical figures Bei Bei and Tang Ya and allowed him to begin reading records about himself. Huo Yuhao hurried to the archives, while Leng Yaozhu warned him to keep Sky Dream Ice Silkworm secret.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm panicked at finding itself in a different place, and Xiao Yin explained Huo Yuhao's time-traveling ability to it.
• Huo Yuhao told Leng Yaozhu that he had met Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in the past and that the million-year soul beast was now inside his Spirit Sea.

• Xiao Yin told Sky Dream Ice Silkworm that Huo Yuhao had once turned the tide in a battle between Shrek Academy and the Star Dou Great Forest.

Qiangu Zhangting recognized the striking resemblance between the young Huo Yuhao and the legendary Spirit Ice Douluo, deepening the Qiangu Clan’s interest in him. Inside the Spirit Ascension Platform, Huo Yuhao defeated a pack of Wind Chasing Wolves, but most of their energy was absorbed by the mysterious Grey Bead, which he decided to feed further.

• Qiangu Zhangting compared Huo Yuhao’s appearance and abilities with records of the twelve-year-old Spirit Ice Douluo and wondered about their connection.
• Huo Yuhao sensed a group of Soul Beasts and found more than a dozen Wind Chasing Wolves feeding in a clearing.

• The wolves’ yellow energy halos veered away from Xiao Yin, and more than sixty percent flowed into the Grey Bead in Huo Yuhao’s Spirit Sea.
• Xiao Yin accused the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm of stealing its energy, but Huo Yuhao saw the Grey Bead absorb it and told Xiao Yin they could hunt more Soul Beasts.

Qiangu Zhangting watched Huo Yuhao grow stronger in the Spirit Ascension Platform and warned Qiangu Dongfeng that he was approaching major breakthroughs. Qiangu Dongfeng rebuked Zhangting’s fear and murderous proposal, then privately wondered why Leng Yaozhu had brought Huo Yuhao to the Spirit Pagoda.

• Qiangu Zhangting watched Huo Yuhao defeat Soul Beasts and saw that his Soul Spirit was nearing the ten-thousand-year threshold.

• Qiangu Zhangting left to cultivate, and Qiangu Dongfeng wondered what Leng Yaozhu had been thinking when she brought Huo Yuhao to the Spirit Pagoda.

Huo Yuhao’s persistent energy offerings awakened Electrolux, the white-robed remnant soul sealed within the Grey Bead in his Spirit Sea. Electrolux revealed that the answer to Huo Yuhao’s journey through time lay hidden in his Spirit Sea and recognized traces of his world’s magic in the Spirit Ascension Platform.

• On the nineteenth day of Huo Yuhao’s visits to the Spirit Ascension Platform, energy from a slain Purple Shadow Leopard awakened the Grey Bead and summoned an elder’s voice.
• Huo Yuhao entered his Spirit Sea and met Electrolux, who thanked him for sustaining the remnant soul and introduced himself as Elder Yi.
• Electrolux recognized Huo Yuhao’s time travel as divine power and said its explanation lay deep within Huo Yuhao’s Spirit Sea, beyond the white mist.
• Electrolux said he came from another world where magic existed and noticed traces of magic in the Spirit Ascension Platform’s construction.
• Huo Yuhao surmised that Electrolux may have helped create the Spirit Pagoda he founded ten thousand years earlier.

Huo Yuhao persuaded Electrolux to study the Soul Spirit System and arranged for him to observe a fusion ritual. Back in Xilai City, nine-year-old Huo Yuhao completed a Level 4 Soul Tool and returned to the peaceful home he shared with his mother, Huo Yun'er.

• Huo Yuhao suggested that Electrolux investigate the Soul Spirit System, and Electrolux agreed to study it and observe a Soul Spirit fusion ritual.

• Huo Yuhao entered his Spirit Sea and confirmed to Electrolux that he was ready to break through and fuse with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
• Electrolux reassured Huo Yuhao that the fusion would cause no energy to leak out, then explained that Sky Dream could choose four Soul Skills for the third Soul Ring.

• Sky Dream explained that Spiritual Resonance could strengthen nearby teammates' spiritual power and let Huo Yuhao borrow and add their spiritual power to his own.
• Huo Yuhao approved the selected skills, and Electrolux instructed him and Sky Dream to begin the Spirit Soul Fusion.

After completing Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s Spirit Soul fusion, Huo Yuhao tested his powerful new Spirit Detection skill and spent two months preparing for a journey to the Extreme North. He entered the frozen forbidden zone seeking the Ice Empress and a Second Martial Soul, while his Spirit Sea remained lively.

• Huo Yuhao studied historical records, traveled to ten thousand years later, and spent two months preparing for the journey.
• Huo Yuhao told Huo Yun'er he was traveling to buy stock for the Soul Tool Shop, then entered the Extreme North wearing special cold-weather gear made with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s shed skin.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm argued that Ice Empress was a more practical choice than Snow Empress for Huo Yuhao’s Second Martial Soul, while hiding its feelings for Ice Empress. Huo Yuhao continued toward the Extreme North’s core, grateful for either possibility and determined to make good use of what he received.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm returned to the Extreme North and longed to see Ice Empress again.
• Xiao Yin questioned why Sky Dream Ice Silkworm favored Ice Empress over the stronger Snow Empress.
• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm argued that Snow Empress would be difficult to find and unlikely to trust promises about Huo Yuhao’s future, while Ice Empress was easier to approach and had a history with it.
• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm cited the future record of Huo Yuhao’s achievements, and Xiao Yin stopped pressing for Snow Empress.
• Huo Yuhao listened to the debate as he trudged toward the Extreme North’s core, resolved to value and master whichever Ice Attribute power he gained.

Huo Yuhao reached the Extreme North's Core Circle, where the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm restored its body and called out Ice Empress, claiming it had returned for revenge. Ice Empress appeared and revealed she saw Tian Meng as prey to devour, leaving their reunion on the verge of a fight.

• Huo Yuhao traveled into the Extreme North's Core Circle, and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm warned him not to go farther.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm used Life Reflection Shield to counter the Ice Empress’s attack, then overwhelmed her with Mental Power and sealed her inside his shed skin.
