Chapter Summaries

Black-Armored Yang Yi defeated Paladin Yang Yi after the underwater vortex apparently killed the alternate Su Na, and the group returned to a Mirror Tower that was rapidly breaking down. With the tower’s battle progress surging and attacks worsening its damage, Su Na urged everyone to clear it quickly without suffering casualties.

• Su Na’s underwater vortex compressed Nun Su Na, the white Xiaoji, and the torpedoes into a black dot that burst apart and shattered the ice above.
• Black-Armored Yang Yi drove off Paladin Yang Yi, exposed Cui Xiya and Cui Bisi’s invisibility, and struck them with white spears.
• Paladin Yang Yi, shaken by his Su Na’s apparent death, attacked wildly with Supreme Holy Slash until Black-Armored Yang Yi killed him.
• Su Na reunited with Yang Yi and the others, and they returned to the Mirror Tower hall, where cracks spread across the mirrors and battle progress climbed rapidly.
• Su Na and Yang Yi injured themselves by touching and striking the mirrors, so Su Na warned the group not to damage the malfunctioning tower and called for them to clear it quickly without casualties.

Yang Yi and his battered crew fought increasingly dangerous versions of themselves as the Mirror Tower destabilized around them. After surviving a burning battle, they were sent without warning into a sweet white sea, where Yang Yi recognized a gigantic Meat Lump as his next counterpart.

• Yang Yi entered a battle against Nightmare Yang Yi, who had Phantasmagoric Eyes and had advanced far along the Nightmare Walker path.
• Yang Yi used the Infinite Flintlock to enter his Salt King state and kill Nightmare Yang Yi, while the Mirror Tower was pierced by a white spear and began to overheat and break apart.
• He Qi and Qin Ming evacuated through a Portal to Green Island as the tower shook, melted the glacier, and burned approaching Ice Nest Worms.
• Yang Yi fought a flame-obsessed version of himself, who set the sea and their teammates ablaze before dying during their contest to withstand the flames.
• The injured crew returned to the tower, but the next battlefield began immediately, and Yang Yi recognized the enormous Meat Lump floating in the sweet white sea as another version of himself.

Yang Yi and Su Na defeated the gluttonous Flesh Mountain Yang Yi by healing themselves, consuming his flesh, and turning him into salt. They entered the ninety-fourth battle and faced a grotesque mirror image of Yang Yi fused with grafted bodies.

• Cui Bisi dragged the wounded Cui Xiya out of the white sea after Cui Xiya began drinking it and healing.
• Yang Yi fused with Su Na, used a Proliferative Potion to restore their injuries, and ate Flesh Mountain Yang Yi's tentacles to recover.
• Yang Yi and Su Na fired Salt Spikes at Flesh Mountain Yang Yi, weakening him by purifying the seawater and reducing him to salt.
• The group returned to the Tower of Reality and Illusion and entered the ninety-fourth battle after reaching the next stage.
• Yang Yi and Su Na encountered a mirror image of Yang Yi grafted onto a spiderlike body, with Su Na's face sewn onto his chest.

Yang Yi and his companions survived the Great Limb Spider Yang Yi, but the Mirror Tower began collapsing and its spatial distortions threatened to kill them. The Mirror Tower shattered as the next battlefield was generated, and Yang Yi fell into the sea after being transferred to the Abyss.

• Yang Yi and his allies defeated Great Limb Spider Yang Yi after he failed to summon the Mother of Ten Thousand Limbs.
• The remaining participants returned to the shattered mirror hall, where Yang Yi prepared to attack the tower and shelter everyone inside the Maw of Gluttony.
• The Mirror Tower broke apart both inside and outside, while a twisted arm covered in eyes briefly emerged from the great mirror before it shattered.
• Yang Yi used healing powers, potions, and protective gear to survive the spatial fractures, while Three Eyes helped him detect and avoid some of them.
• The Mirror Tower announced that the Abyss battlefield was ready, then shattered the space around Yang Yi and dropped him into the seawater.

Yang Yi and his crew escaped the collapsing Mirror Tower with their loot, but the system occupied Mirror Island and began emergency maintenance after detecting the Mirror of Infinite Possibilities. Yang Yi discovered that only the five crew members remained on the Ice Field, leaving them stranded, while Qin Ming learned on Green Island that Mirror Island had been occupied.

• Cui Xiya healed the injured crew with Healing of the Flame and offered Cui Bisi her intact scepter after Cui Bisi's broke.
• Su Na found the Mirror of Infinite Possibilities shard among the items Yang Yi had expelled, and blue data symbols began targeting the mirror shards.
• Yang Yi finished unloading the crew's looted items and received a system announcement that Player Island No. 06 had been occupied and the system would undergo 72 hours of emergency maintenance.
• Yang Yi searched the Ice Field, found no Mirror Island, and saw that the Regional Channel had only five players—the exact number in his crew—so he realized they were stranded.
• On Green Island, the Portal went dark after the Mirror Tower collapsed, and Qin Ming was stunned by the news that Mirror Island had been occupied.

Yang Yi and his crew repaired Xiaoji, salvaged supplies, and escaped the Mirror Tower wreckage across the glacier. They reached the sea and used the Golden Commerce Guild's Senior VIP Card to summon the Guild's President, then prepared to rest and contact Steam Island after system maintenance.

• Yang Yi restored Xiaoji with scrap and flesh, though most of Xiaoji's equipment and combat strength were lost.
• Su Na gathered the inactive Mirror of Infinite Possibilities fragments while Yang Yi decided they needed to leave rather than wait for rescue.
• Yang Yi used the Eye of Greed with his crew to salvage valuable equipment and supplies, then set the trash piles ablaze as a distraction.
• An Ice Nest Elder arrived at the burning wreckage, mistook it for the work of the Fire Worship Cult, and left to report it.
• Yang Yi led the crew across the glacier through a blizzard until they reached the sea, where he threw the Senior VIP Card into the water.
• Yang Yi and the crew settled on a moving ice floe to recover and planned to contact Steam Island after system maintenance ended.

Yang Yi and Su Na used the Limb Restoration Spell and Long-Legged Sardines to repair the shattered mirror, turning it into a living relic that could make limited copies. After testing it with the Gleaming Wave Blade, they set Broken Iron before it to see what the mirror would produce.

• Yang Yi cast the Limb Restoration Spell on the broken mirror and Long-Legged Sardines, and Tiny Spiders stitched them together into a living mirror with legs.
• Su Na examined the Mirror of the Long-Legged Sardine, which displayed living creatures as sardines or salted fish and could copy some items.
• After hours of exposure, the mirror produced a Wave-Edged Fish Knife based on the Gleaming Wave Blade.
• Su Na placed Broken Iron before the mirror to test whether a stronger item would yield a higher-quality copy.
• Twenty-four hours later, a tall salted fish slid out of the mirror, and Yang Yi picked it up and bit into it.

After the Mirror of Infinite Possibilities finished formatting, Yang Yi learned that Mirror Island had been destroyed and that an Infinite Trial Tower could now be built. Stranded in the Extreme Winter Sea, he asked Yu Dawei to prioritize building the tower and to scout Corpse Island, while waiting for the President of the Golden Commerce Guild.

• Yang Yi and Su Na concluded that the mirror failed to copy anything that had not emerged within 24 hours, then ate the ordinary Mutated Long-Legged Sardine it produced.
• The system announced that the Infinite Trial Tower had been added, and Yang Yi discovered that Mirror Island was listed as destroyed.
• When the announcement reached all players, Yang Yi replied to messages that he was alive but stranded in the Extreme Winter Sea, and learned the Mirror Tower's collapse had destroyed nearby ships.
• Yang Yi told Yu Dawei to manage Steam Island and the Nightmare Star, keep the Abyss Nautilus aboard the ship, and send a team to scout Corpse Island once construction stabilized.
• Yang Yi urged Yu Dawei to prioritize building the Infinite Trial Tower, and Yu Dawei said Steam Island would build it first using resources from a new Resource Conversion Factory.

Yang Yi accepted the President of the Golden Commerce Guild’s invitation and became a Golden Merchant, receiving a Treasure Ship and trading supplies in exchange for a limited time to fill his contract hourglass. He negotiated for five Legendary Strength Potions, leaving him with 300 years to trade as the Guild President continued to offer him goods.

• Yang Yi discovered that the half-Siren speaking to him was controlled by the President of the Golden Commerce Guild, who had come to retrieve the VIP card he discarded.
• The President invited Yang Yi to join the guild and offered him a Golden Hourglass contract that granted the Golden Merchant identity and its protections.
• Yang Yi accepted the hourglass, received the Golden Merchant blessing, and watched the President raise a Treasure Ship through the ice.
• The President offered three supply packages with different trading time limits, and Yang Yi chose to pursue the large-supplies option rather than preserve the maximum 500 years.
• Yang Yi negotiated for four genuine Legendary Strength Potions, then requested a fifth for Su Na’s research, reducing his trading time limit to 300 years.

Yang Yi traded most of his remaining years for High-level Abyss Soul Stones and received a merchant's Treasure Ship, then tried its business-opportunity skill. The ship pointed back toward the area they had come from, where the chance of a transaction was negligible, leaving Yang Yi unsure whether to turn back or sail on.

• Yang Yi exchanged time for a Legendary Strength Potion and eight High-level Abyss Soul Stones, leaving himself exactly two years.
• Yang Yi inspected the Treasure Ship and found that it could not use Portals or be upgraded, but it could assess business opportunities once a day.
• Yang Yi and his crew moved their supplies into the Treasure Ship, which grew larger, while Cui Bisi, Cui Xiya, and Xiaoji volunteered to organize the merchandise.
• Su Na examined the Supreme Pact Artifact and planned to analyze it with tools, warning Yang Yi not to stray far from her.
• Yang Yi used the ship's business-opportunity skill, which pointed back toward their previous location and reported a negligible chance of a transaction, leaving him undecided about whether to turn back.

Yang Yi decided to travel through the ice field as a merchant and arranged for Yu Dawei to destroy and rebuild the Nightmare Star so it could eventually bring Steam Island’s goods to him. While preparing to trade with limited help, Yang Yi used the Mirror of the Long-Legged Sardine to create a strong, intelligent worker, then began producing more.

• Yang Yi chose to head into the ice field to trade instead of sailing out to find another player, and planned to rebuild the Nightmare Star to reconnect with Steam Island.
• Yang Yi told Yu Dawei to move the ship’s supplies, lure away the Vitality Sardine Tree, and destroy the Nightmare Star safely.
• Yang Yi confirmed the ship’s rebuild, which would take twenty-one days, and continued preparing merchandise for trade.
• Yang Yi used the Mirror of the Long-Legged Sardine for twenty-four hours until a Super Long-Legged Sardine emerged.
• Yang Yi tested the sardine’s strength and intelligence, then tied it in front of the mirror and began mass-producing workers.

Yang Yi turned the Treasure Ship into a shop staffed by Long-Legged Sardines and continued traveling across the ice in search of customers. When the Nightmare Star was rebuilt, an Ice Nest Elder spotted the ship and tried to alert the Ice Nest Cult, so Yang Yi killed the Elder and the entire swarm before they could report him.

• Yang Yi trained thousands of Long-Legged Sardines to organize the Treasure Ship and prepare to serve customers.
• Yang Yi traveled across the ice as a Flame Giant while Su Na controlled the Treasure Ship, but found no customers.
• The Nightmare Star finished rebuilding, and an Ice Nest Elder and its swarm spotted it, triggering a warning that Yang Yi had to eliminate all witnesses within 15 minutes.
• The Ice Nest Elder recognized Yang Yi as a Player and tried to return to activate the Mist.
• Yang Yi killed the Ice Nest Worms and crushed the Ice Nest Elder's shell with his flaming hand.
• Yang Yi confirmed that no witnesses remained and returned to the Nightmare Star with the Elder's remains for Gacha.

Yang Yi processed the remains from the collapsed Mirror Tower, turned most of them into Gacha rewards, and restored the Nightmare Star to level seven. He then opened a Portal to seek new merchandise and a solution to crossing the Ice Field.

• Yang Yi gave the Book of Pure White, middle volume to the long-legged squad captain, who froze solid, so he handed it to the Old Captain instead.
• Yang Yi fed a Wise Fox (Yang Yi) corpse into the Gacha Machine and obtained glasses that he intended to give to Su Na.
• Yang Yi upgraded the Nightmare Star back to level seven, but found no mythic-level remains and no changes to the ship's skills.
• Yang Yi kept the Great Limb Spider, the Silver Wolf Knight, and Black Staff, while turning the other corpses into equipment, soul stones, inscription stones, and other rewards.
• Yang Yi planned to stock the Treasure Ship and One-Eye Smithy with merchandise, then opened a Portal to find unusual goods and address travel across the Ice Field.

Yang Yi expanded the Treasure Ship’s business and returned from the Infinite Trial Tower to find its first customers browsing aboard. He approached the frightened pair just as they were about to leave, leaving their purchase—and the caravan’s prospects—uncertain.

• Yang Yi outfitted the Treasure Ship with sled runners and Snow Walkers, bought Player Island Portals for his companions, and acquired new talents for Cui Xiya and Cui Bisi.
• Yang Yi and Su Na found that the Infinite Trial Tower gave powerful players mostly Long-Legged Sardines, so Yang Yi left after earning few Player Points.
• Yang Yi returned with fruit and vegetables and discovered that the Treasure Ship had stopped beside the Nightmare Star because customers had arrived.
• Cui Xiya showed an unfamiliar man and woman around the shop, but they found the merchandise too expensive and prepared to leave.
• Yang Yi called out to the pair, who froze in fear at the sight of the bald, eyepatched man.

Yang Yi made his first sale as a traveling merchant, giving two siblings a Super Apple as a gift after they could afford only water. He followed them to their hidden settlement beneath the ice and prepared to investigate it.

• The siblings bought a bottle of water, and Yang Yi gave them a Super Apple as the caravan’s first customers.
• Cui Xiya teased Yang Yi about losing money on the gift, while Yang Yi inspected a Golden Hourglass that recorded his first transaction.
• The siblings traveled across the snowfield and entered their underground settlement through a tunnel dug by their Snow Wolf.
• Yang Yi followed them to the entrance and, after speaking with Su Na, used the Darkness Bodysuit’s invisibility function to enter.

Yang Yi infiltrated an underground settlement and discovered that its miners extracted White Shards linked to the Ice Nest Cult. He stole a large haul and returned to the surface, leaving the cult’s underground operation undisturbed.

• Yang Yi slid down the icy passage, missed the siblings’ platform, and crashed into a wall near the mining area, distracting the guards.
• Yang Yi slipped past the guards and entered the mining area, where he saw workers extracting White Shards from grains of ice and reported his findings to Su Na.
• Su Na told Yang Yi to steal a bucket of shards, and he secretly took miners’ buckets and their contents.
• Yang Yi explored the settlement, saw its church and an Ice Nest Elder, and stole the White Shards piled inside the church.
• After three hours, Yang Yi emerged onto the Ice Field and headed back to the Treasure Ship.

Yang Yi brought a huge haul of White Shards and Ice Eggs back to the Treasure Ship, where Su Na studied their properties and the Golden Hourglass. His business-sensing skill detected a bustling marketplace as a massive Ice Nest Swarm approached the caravan.

• Yang Yi returned to the Treasure Ship with piles of Ice Eggs and White Shards, explaining that Su Na wanted them for research.
• Yang Yi and Su Na discussed the Ice Nest Cult’s underground settlements, their food and fuel, and Su Na’s theory that oxygen came from the ice.
• Yang Yi delivered dozens of Ice Eggs to Su Na in the Witch Laboratory, where she examined them alongside a White Shard and the Golden Hourglass.
• Yang Yi used his business-sensing skill from the Lookout Tower and detected that the area was likely to see many transactions.
• Yang Yi spotted a huge Ice Nest Swarm, including many Ice Nest Elders, gathering ahead of the caravan and prepared to receive them.

Yang Yi confronted eighteen Ice Nest Elders who accused him of stealing White Shards, but he invoked his merchant status and agreed to trade. As the Elders searched the Treasure Ship for the shard, Yang Yi and his crew prepared to trap them with inflated prices and a billion-Conch-Coin heating fee.

• The Ice Nest swarm surrounded the Treasure Ship and brought the frostbitten young man and his sister, who had been frozen in ice, to accuse Yang Yi of stealing White Shards.
• Yang Yi denied the accusation, threatened to invoke the Golden Commerce Guild’s protection, and offered to trade; the Ice Nest Elders shattered the ice sculptures holding the young man’s sister and others.
• The Ice Nest Elders boarded the Treasure Ship, freezing the Long-Legged Sardines and damaging merchandise as they searched for the White Shard.
• Yang Yi secretly raised the prices of many goods to one billion Conch Coins and followed the Elders as they headed toward the cabins.
• A plump Light Fairy posted signs along the route declaring that the heating service ahead cost one billion Conch Coins, setting a trap for the searching Elders.

Yang Yi guided the Ice Nest Elders through his Treasure Ship and returned the White Shards they had come to retrieve. When one elder refused to pay the Wealth-and-Fortune Staircase fee, Yang Yi killed him with Liquid Flowing Fire, leaving the others stunned by his power.

• Yang Yi showed the Ice Nest Elders his shop's salted-fishified weapons and led them down to the lower decks.
• The Ice Nest Elders found their White Shards among the Ice Eggs, and Yang Yi returned them while denying that he had stolen them.
• As the elders tried to leave, Yang Yi charged them for the diamond lounge and the Fortune-and-Wealth Blessing Staircase.
• Yang Yi attacked the elder who refused to pay the increased staircase toll, transformed into a towering wolf-faced figure, and burned the Crystal Giant to charcoal with Liquid Flowing Fire.
• The Ice Nest Grand Elder stopped the others from attacking after sensing Yang Yi's strength, while tens of millions of Conch Coins and a Golden Commerce Guild VIP card spilled out.

Yang Yi’s transformed Treasure Ship became a blazing Firebearer, while Su Na used a super shard to expose the Ice Nest Elders’ reliance on heat and freeze their Grand Elder. The fire also awakened the first Ice Field native to join the Fire Worship Cult.

• The Nightmare Star’s Mimicry transformed the Treasure Ship into the burning Firebearer, whose flames warmed a freezing young man beside his ice-encased sister and turned him into a Fire Worship Cult believer.
• Yang Yi charged the Ice Nest Elders more Conch Coins for each step through the burning ship, while the Grand Elder paid to pass and abandoned the others to fight Yang Yi.
• Su Na stopped the fleeing Grand Elder and explained that the Ice Nest Elders used their White Shards to draw heat from extreme cold and sustain themselves.
• Su Na stripped the Grand Elder’s White Shard from his forehead, freezing him into an ice sculpture as a brilliant sphere of light erupted into the sky.
