• Xun Er declined Xiao Zhan’s invitation to return to the Heavenly Mansion with the Xiao clan and went back to the Gu Clan.

While Xiao Xuan pursued his own plans at the Heavenly Tomb, Xiao Han and Yi Huang plotted to arrange Xiao Wu’s marriage, and the chapter ended with them watching the wedding together.

• Xiao Xuan was astonished by Xiao Han’s late-stage strength, then urged him and Yi Huang to have children; Xiao Han explained that it could not be forced.
• Xiao Xuan said he would receive the bride himself because Xiao Ding was traveling with Qing Lin and Xiao Li was being pursued by a girl from the Lei Tribe.

One year later, Xiao Yan and the experts at Canaan Institute activated the Ancient Emperor Statue with Xiao Yin’s help, while Xiao Han stayed safely away. Xiao Han then headed to the Northernmost Land to find the Ice Emperor’s ultimate inheritance, whose location he deduced from a map of the seals.

• Xiao Yin emerged from Xiao Yan and revealed that he could open the Ancient Emperor Statue, which moved after Xiao Yin’s efforts.
• Xiao Han and Yi Huang watched from a distant mountaintop as the experts at Exotic Fire Square knelt before the statue, and Xiao Han denied having set them up.

• Xiao Han studied the seals’ arrangement, recognized a continent-spanning array with a missing core, and deduced that the ultimate inheritance lay near the edge of the Northernmost Land.

Xiao Han entered the Ice Emperor’s inheritance ruins and met the Ice Emperor’s remnant soul, who offered him a six-petaled snowflake said to enable a breakthrough to Dou Di. Xiao Han sensed the gift carried a risk, and the remnant soul began to explain the Ice Emperor’s identity.

• Xiao Han used the Ice Emperor Scripture to open the iceberg and enter the inheritance ruins.
• Xiao Han found a courtyard and met a young man who revealed he was a remnant soul left to guard the ruins.
• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul said he could reveal some of the final inheritance and handed Xiao Han a six-petaled snowflake.
• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul claimed the snowflake could let Xiao Han break through to Dou Di and noted that the world could no longer produce a Dou Di.
• Xiao Han suspected the snowflake came with a cost, and the Ice Emperor Remnant Soul began explaining the Ice Emperor’s identity.

The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul revealed that the Ice Emperor was a heaven-born Ice Snow Elf created to fight the Evil Clan, and that accepting his inheritance meant taking on that responsibility. Xiao Han agreed but demanded extra compensation, so the remnant soul implanted the Hexagonal Ice Crystal and began an inheritance trial whose outcome depended on Xiao Han's heart.

• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul told Xiao Han that the Ice Emperor belonged to no race and had been born in the Northernmost Land with Dou Di strength to drive out invaders.
• The remnant soul explained that the Evil Clan wielded power above dou qi and hinted that they might be connected to an unknown Upper Realm.

• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul drove the Hexagonal Ice Crystal into Xiao Han and wished him luck as the inheritance trial began.

Xiao Han awoke as a Dou Di and learned that his breakthrough had awakened the Xiao Clan’s bloodline, but he could not return from the Endless Void. Back on the Dou Qi Continent, the Xiao Clan celebrated its resurgence and Yi Huang discovered she was pregnant.

• Xiao Han awoke from the inheritance and questioned why his Dou Di breakthrough had caused no heavenly phenomena or bloodline transformation.
• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul explained that Xiao Han’s bloodline transformation had awakened the Xiao Clan, whose members began cultivating as their strength surged.
• Xiao Xuan and the Xiao Clan elders recognized Xiao Zhan’s leap from Two-Star to Six-Star Dou Sheng as a sign of Bloodline Awakening, and Xiao Xuan decided to investigate the Ancient Emperor Relic.
• Xian'er examined Yi Huang and confirmed that she was pregnant, which Yi Huang verified with her Soul Strength.
• The Ice Emperor Remnant Soul told Xiao Han that the Endless Void had no reason to recognize him and that he could not return for now.

Xiao Han confronted the Ice Emperor over taking him to the Upper Realm without warning, then learned the dying Ice Emperor wanted to see it before his soul disappeared. The two continued through the Space Turbulence without knowing where they would arrive or what awaited them.

• Xiao Han threatened the Ice Emperor Remnant Soul, then spared him and demanded an explanation for their journey.
• The Ice Emperor admitted he did not know the Upper Realm's current situation or where they would land, explaining he had only recorded its general direction.
• Xiao Han pressed the Ice Emperor about why he had rushed them away, and the Ice Emperor revealed he was the Ice Emperor himself, not a remnant soul he had left behind.

• The Ice Emperor said he wanted to see the Upper Realm before he died, and Xiao Han agreed while warning they might reach territory controlled by the Evil Clan.
• A shuttle-shaped space raced through the Space Turbulence as Xiao Han and the Ice Emperor continued toward an unknown destination.

After drifting through the turbulent void for half a year, Xiao Han crossed a planar barrier but was swept away by a spatial storm. At Northern Azure Spiritual Academy, Dean Tai Cang learned of heavy losses in the war with the Dragon Demon Palace just as an alarm signaled another attack.

• Xiao Han stored Ice Emperor and the Ruins space in a ring, then broke through the planar barrier and entered a spatial storm.
• Xiao Han was swept toward an unknown destination by the chaotic spatial force.
• Zhu Tian reported that Northern Azure Spiritual Academy had lost more than three thousand students, twenty Heavenly Ranking students, eight instructors, and Elder Lin Ying in a month of clashes with the Dragon Demon Palace.
