The silkworm settled in a corner of Jun Xuehan’s Spiritual Sea after the Divine Seed repeatedly repelled him, while Gu Yuena and Di Tian reflected on the loss of their cultivation tonic.

• Xiao Wu held back her irritation with Jun Xuehan and went to Er Ming, while Wang Qiu'er rested nearby.
• Jun Xuehan questioned the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Spiritual Sea about why it had sacrificed itself and whether it had a soul bone.
• The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm explained that it could provide four soul skills and an Ice-attribute Unformed Martial Soul that would take shape after Jun Xuehan absorbed an Ice-type Soul Ring.

• The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was surprised that Jun Xuehan was the Young Master of Soul Beasts, and Jun Xuehan mocked its lack of strength before it defended the value of its four soul skills.

Jun Xuehan prepared to leave the Star Dou Great Forest for training in the Extreme North Region, where Sky Dream Ice Silkworm promised him a powerful soul ring, soul bone, and Martial Soul.

• Jun Xuehan bought dried rations, ignored Soul Masters seeking teammates at the West Gate, and walked out of Pure Snow City.

• Jun Xuehan passed a danger sign, caught a ten-year White Spirit Cat, then released it and walked into the snowy region.

• Jun Xuehan explained that training had been his original reason for coming and that he had not planned to attach a soul ring to his Second Martial Soul yet.
• Jun Xuehan acknowledged that he wanted a Ferocious Beast Soul Ring but said he needed a body capable of enduring its cultivation duration first.

Jun Xuehan trained his physique and spear skills in the Extreme North Region before discovering four injured Free Soul Masters fleeing from two Evil Soul Masters. After checking that no other pursuers were nearby, he decided to follow the two Soul Sages from a safe distance.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ended their conversation and fell asleep as Jun Xuehan continued deeper into the Extreme North Region.

• Jun Xuehan recognized the pursuers as two Evil Soul Master Soul Sages and waited while checking for more enemies.
• Jun Xuehan confirmed there were no other Evil Soul Masters nearby, then quietly followed the two pursuers from a safe distance.

• The two Evil Soul Masters chased the injured Free Soul Masters while Jun Xuehan followed them, waiting for a chance to strike.

• Xiong Qiu demanded the soul bone from Xiao Lei, who threw it toward Jun Xuehan rather than surrender it to him.
• Xiong Qiu ran toward the soul bone while Jun Xuehan pressed his attack, and the surviving Evil Soul Master shifted to a more evasive fight.

Jun Xuehan killed the Evil Soul Master and Xiong Qiu, then learned that a group of Evil Soul Masters was hunting Titan Snow Demon King Ah Tai in the Extreme North. He reached the Core Area and hid nearby to watch the battle.

• Jun Xuehan exploited an opening to pierce the Evil Soul Master's throat with the Silver Dragon Spear.
• Jun Xuehan hurled his spear through Xiong Qiu and left him pinned in the snow, then continued deeper into the Extreme North.
• Xiao Lei warned Jun Xuehan that four or five Evil Soul Masters, including two Titled Douluo, were hunting a huge soul beast in the Core Area.
• Jun Xuehan inferred that the target was Titan Snow Demon King Ah Tai and went to investigate, intending only to observe.
• Jun Xuehan found five black-robed figures attacking Ah Tai, kept his distance, and hid in a concealed location.

Jun Xuehan watched Snow Empress arrive as the Titan Snow Demon King faltered, then Ice Empress ambushed him. Ice Empress rejected his claim that they were allies, leaving Jun Xuehan facing her with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm urging him to run.

• Jun Xuehan observed the Titan Snow Demon King battle two Evil Soul Master Titled Douluo and three Soul Douluo before suddenly collapsing to one knee.

• Jun Xuehan told Ice Empress they were on the same side, but she refused to stop attacking humans in the Core Area.

• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said Jun Xuehan's only option was to run, warning that both of them would die if Jun Xuehan was killed.

Jun Xuehan persuaded Ice Empress to pause her attack by claiming he knew Di Tian and the Co-lord of Soul Beasts, then told Snow Empress that the Co-lord was his elder sister. Snow Empress and Ice Empress questioned his story, leaving Jun Xuehan to claim he was a transformed soul beast whose true nature had been concealed.

• Jun Xuehan warned Ice Empress that fighting him could provoke a conflict between the Extreme North Region and the Star Dou Great Forest, and asked her to wait until Snow Empress finished her battle.
• Ice Empress joined Snow Empress against the Evil Soul Masters while keeping her Mental Power fixed on Jun Xuehan, and Snow Empress defeated the final enemy.
• Ice Empress told Snow Empress that Jun Xuehan claimed to know Di Tian and the Co-lord of Soul Beasts, so Snow Empress went to question him.
• Jun Xuehan said the Co-lord of Soul Beasts was his elder sister, and then claimed he was a soul beast who had undergone Soul Beast Human Transformation.

Jun Xuehan fabricated a soul beast identity and an exact Cultivation Age to mislead Snow Empress, who remained wary but escorted him to the Extreme North Region's Core Area. He stayed under observation, believing Snow Empress's fear of Di Tian and Gu Yuena kept him safe for now.

• Jun Xuehan claimed he was a Silver Dragon who had cultivated for 314,159 years and endured the three hundred thousand year Great Tribulation.
• When Snow Empress questioned his single soul ring, Jun Xuehan said he had another martial soul and named himself Gu Yu Yuan.
• Snow Empress ordered Jun Xuehan to accompany her and Ice Empress into the Core Area while she decided whether his identity was genuine.
• Snow Empress told Ice Empress that they should observe Jun Xuehan, since harming him could provoke a conflict with the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Jun Xuehan told Sky Dream Ice Silkworm that he was still with the Empresses but was relatively safe because Snow Empress had not agreed to let anyone attack him.
