Ye Xuan began his sixth Sea God trial, using his Blue Silver Life Tree domain to evade Bo Saixi and try to last for an incense stick’s time. As Bo Saixi’s attacks intensified, Ye Xuan’s domain began to break down and his Soul Power dwindled, leaving the outcome uncertain.

• Ye Xuan pulled the Sea God's Trident from the altar, earning a 150,000-year increase to all his soul rings and astonishing Bo Saixi.
• Ye Xuan's grip slipped, and the trident crushed half of the Sea God Temple before Bo Saixi caught it and returned it to its place.

• Ye Xuan received no message about the eighth trial and left the Sea God Temple, where Hu Liena, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing were waiting.
• Ye Xuan reunited with the three women and wondered aloud what trial the Sea God would give him, while the Sea God sensed his gaze and continued thinking.

Ye Xuan learned that his eighth trial required him to defeat or obtain the surrender of all current Sea God trial participants, and his three companions readily surrendered. He attacked Tang San at the tidal trial grounds and left him badly injured and unable to speak or fight back.

• Ice Empress discovered that Ye Xuan's Life Brand had bound her soul and suppressed her resistance.
• Ye Xuan told Ice Empress to cooperate with his divine trials, threatening her with the Brand and promising he might take her and Snow Empress to the God Realm afterward.

• Half a year passed as Ye Xuan built a warm snow hut and began creating Ice Mice from soul beast gene fragments.
• Ye Xuan's ball of life energy collapsed, scattering golden light and ending his first attempt.

Ye Xuan used his research into native soul beasts and the Far North to overcome his failures in creating an Ice Mouse. After finally bringing one to life, he left the snow hut with Ice Empress and Snow Empress still under his control.

• Ye Xuan reviewed his failed attempts and concluded that his creations needed genes adapted to the Far North.
• Ice Empress brought Ye Xuan soup, and he ordered Snow Empress to go hunting instead of Ice Empress.
• Snow Empress resisted, but she eventually left the snow hut under Ice Empress's watch and Bo Saixi's supervision.
• Ye Xuan realized he needed to build on local life and environmental laws rather than transplant Blue Star genes directly.
• Ye Xuan combined native tundra rabbit and snow mouse genes with his life power to create a living Ice Mouse.
• The Ice Mouse emerged from the frozen ground and ran to Ye Xuan, prompting Ice Empress to celebrate his success.

Ye Xuan completed the fourth Life God's Trial and was sent to Extinction Space for the fifth, where he had to survive seven days and purify the Source of Annihilation without outside help.

• Ye Xuan received the fourth trial's rewards, including the Life Creation skill, and was assigned the fifth trial in Extinction Space.
• The God King's will sent Ye Xuan into the lightless Extinction Space and explained that he must survive seven days, purify the Source of Annihilation, and accept no outside assistance.
• Deathly energy surged into Ye Xuan, but he used his million-year divine beast spine bone and physical resilience to resist its corrosion and adapt.
• Ye Xuan realized that the space's laws withered vitality and wore down the will, while his Life God Power was suppressed and his soul skills were unusable.
• Ye Xuan sat down to restore his vitality and wait for an opportunity, unaware that a crack in the Source of Annihilation was releasing a more terrifying force toward him.

Ye Xuan resisted the Source of Annihilation’s inner-demon trial and broke through its illusion, strengthening his spiritual power and improving his control of Life divine power. By the fifth day, the Source of Annihilation had merged illusion with reality, leaving Ye Xuan’s mind and body under severe erosion.

• The Source of Annihilation tempted Ye Xuan with an illusion in which he could abandon Bo Saixi, Ice Empress, and his other companions to escape the Space of Annihilation.

• Ye Xuan’s spiritual power surpassed its limits, temporarily suppressing the laws of the Space of Annihilation and raising his Life divine power circulation from 10% to 15%.
• The Source of Annihilation formed a massive shadow wielding a black greatsword and threatened to erase Ye Xuan’s vitality and will.
• On the fifth day, illusion and reality merged, and Ye Xuan suffered doubled erosion as visions of Bo Saixi and Ice Empress being injured coincided with deathly stillness attacking his body.
• Gray-black patterns spread across Ye Xuan’s body, black blood dripped from his fingers, and his spiritual barrier trembled under the Source of Annihilation’s attack.
