Dugu Lin passed Bo Saixi’s test by using the Twelve-Winged Archangel’s self-destruction, then learned his seventh trial required him to accept the position of Sea God Island’s High Priestess.

• Bo Saixi deduced that Dugu Lin could summon and recall soul beasts for unlimited self-destructions, then warned that his role as High Priest barred him from becoming a god.

Dugu Lin’s battle with Bo Saixi dragged on until he summoned the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and used Ice Empress and Ah Yin to demonstrate his God-Making Plan. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was left questioning whether the world itself prevented soul beasts from becoming gods, while Bo Saixi prepared to escape.
