• Ning Bei spoke with Bo Saixi about the group’s trials and his search for an opportunity to complete the Ninth Trial before leaving to pursue it.
• After three hours in the tide, Ning Bei carried the unconscious group ashore, and Dugu Yan woke first and vowed to keep persevering.

• Dugu Yan asked Ning Bei if he was leaving again, and he promised to find her a suitable God Position after becoming a god.

• Ning Bei planned to leave for the far north the next day, but summoned Ah Yin, who told him she had been watching Tang San's movements and asked if he wanted to hear about his latest move.

Ning Bei searched the Far North for clues to the Ice God’s Ninth Trial but found nothing, then turned to his fallback plan of ascending through the Pill Pagoda if needed. When A'Dai reached rank 70, he asked Ning Bei to accompany him to the Great Death Canyon so he could seek a god test, and they headed toward its depths.

• Ning Bei and the Three Giants searched the Far North for nearly half a month but found no sign of the Ice God’s Ninth Trial.

• Ning Bei agreed to accompany A'Dai to the Great Death Canyon, and they set out the following day.
• After arriving in two days, A'Dai sensed his martial soul’s guidance and led Ning Bei toward the depths of the canyon.

Ning Bei and A'Dai reached the Gray Mist marking the God of Death's test site, and A'Dai entered alone while Ning Bei waited outside. After discovering signs of an underground ice cavern nearby, Ning Bei and the Three Giants of the Far North searched it and found a creature's corpse on an ice wall.

• A'Dai entered the Gray Mist alone, while Ning Bei's Spiritual Power could not penetrate it.
• The Snow Empress spotted a Far North Ice Worm, and Ning Bei realized its presence meant there was ice underground.
• The Ice Empress dug through the earth and uncovered a huge underground ice cave.
• Ning Bei, the Ice Empress, Tian Meng, and the Snow Empress split up to search the cavern.
• Ning Bei walked several kilometers east and found a creature's corpse on an ice wall.

Ning Bei and the Ice Empress searched Death Canyon and found the corpses of an Ice Dragon and an Ice Phoenix, but neither seemed to be the treasure they sought. They discovered the Snow Empress frozen in an ice sculpture that Ning Bei could not melt, then spotted a glowing object nearby.

• Ning Bei melted the ice around a dead Ice Dragon, found a Spirit Bone in its head, and stored the corpse in his Soul Tool.
• The Ice Empress and Tian Meng shared their discoveries of the Ice Dragon and an Ice Phoenix, while the group waited for the Snow Empress to return.
• When the Snow Empress failed to come back, Ning Bei and the Ice Empress went south and found her frozen in an ice sculpture.
• Ning Bei failed to melt the ice covering the Snow Empress's soul and concluded that the enemy's mastery of ice surpassed his own.
• The Ice Empress rushed toward a glowing spot, but Ning Bei grabbed her twin ponytails and lifted her into the air.

Ning Bei met Skadi, the original Ice God, when Ice God's Heart awakened her remains. Skadi explained the Ninth Trial needed more energy than her heart could provide, then returned to sleep after freeing the Snow Empress and warning Ning Bei that Asura’s interference might signal trouble in the God Realm.

• Ning Bei left the Ice Empress in his Sea of Consciousness and approached the glowing skeleton that had trapped the Snow Empress.
• Ice God's Heart resonated with the skeleton, and Skadi appeared before Ning Bei as a beautiful woman.
• Skadi told Ning Bei that the Ninth Trial needed sufficient energy to open the Road to Godhood, and Ning Bei said his first Martial Soul could provide it.
• Skadi freed the Snow Empress and told her that Ning Bei was now the Ice God.
• Ning Bei asked why Asura interfered in Douluo Continent, and Skadi speculated that something troubling had happened in the God Realm.
• Skadi wished Ning Bei success, then returned to her skeletal form as her remaining energy entered Ice God's Heart.

Ning Bei prepared to create the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill in the Far North Land, gathering his Soul Beast companions to help Lei Yuanyuan withstand the pill’s lightning tribulation. After five days of drawing in Heaven and Earth Energy, the golden pill finished forming as the sky darkened for the coming tribulation.

• Ning Bei brought Skadi’s remains and the Ice Phoenix corpse back from the underground Ice Cave, then returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to warn Ning Fengzhi before leaving again.
• Ning Bei returned to the Far North Land and ordered Little Hailstone and her Clan Members to seal off a hundred-kilometer area around his chosen ground.
• Ning Bei summoned Lei Yuanyuan and his Soul Beast companions, gave them Life Restoration Pills, and asked them to help Yuanyuan face the coming lightning tribulation.
• Ning Bei summoned the Pill Pagoda and used his Ninth Spirit Ring to gather Heaven and Earth Energy into a vortex that nurtured the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill for five days.
• Chang’e tried to keep the sleepy Lei Yuanyuan awake as the pill turned gold and the Far North sky darkened with an approaching storm.

Ning Bei's golden pill attracted a terrifying Pill Lightning storm, and Lei Yuanyuan and the Fierce Beasts took turns facing its Thunder Dragons. Ning Bei handled the remaining lightning and caught the completed golden elixir, which was key to the Ice God's Ninth Trial.

• After six days, a golden light and rich pill fragrance rose from Ning Bei's palm, summoning Pill Lightning over the Far North.
• Lei Yuanyuan swallowed seventy Thunder Dragons before she could eat no more, so Ning Bei let the Fierce Beasts take their turns.
• Da Ming and Er Ming were badly shocked by their Thunder Dragons, while Chang'e, A Yin, and the other beasts helped endure the storm.
• Chang'e forced the frightened Wang Wang to face a Thunder Dragon, then treated her with a Life Restoration Pill.
• Ning Bei activated Ice God's Protection and took on the remaining Thunder Dragons until the sky cleared.
• Ning Bei caught the golden elixir and declared the pill complete, while the Three Giants of the Far North celebrated its importance to the Ice God's Ninth Trial.

Ning Bei used the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill to open the passage to the Ice God’s Ninth Trial and stepped onto the Road to Godhood. After drifting through darkness and losing his sense of self, he reached a bright realm where a purple-haired woman appeared before him.

• Ning Bei traveled to Ice God Hall, sent Ah Yin to Skywater City, and arranged for the Three Giants of the Far North to contact his father if he was gone too long.
• Ning Bei swallowed the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill and guided its surging energy into Ice God’s Heart, which connected him to the God Trial.
• A nine-colored heavenly gate formed above Ice God Hall, and Ning Bei explained that it led to the passage for his Ninth Trial.
• Ning Bei entered the gate, which vanished behind him, while Snow Empress reassured Tian Meng that he would succeed and return for them.
• Ning Bei drifted through darkness, lost his senses and memories, then saw the light consume the darkness and encountered a short purple-haired woman with emerald-green pupils.

Ning Bei relived the loss of everyone he loved after his God Trial kept him away for more than a century. Little Angel appeared as the Angel God, took back the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, and prepared to leave for the God Realm.

• Ning Bei remembered Dugu Yan, but she aged and died in his arms before fading into starlight.
• Huo Linglong, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, Ning Fan, and Ning Fengzhi appeared, said farewell, and vanished after aging.
• Ning Bei embraced his younger sister, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing, but they too died and disappeared, leaving him grieving and furious.
• Little Angel told Ning Bei she was the Angel God and would not stay with him, then took the Lovesick Heartbreak Red from his Soul Tool.

Ning Bei endured a trial that made him believe Qian Renxue had abandoned him, then woke in his old life and wondered whether his time in the Douluo World had only been a dream. Unable to use his former powers, he returned to his corporate routine, where a pandemic closure left him facing the gap between his two lives.

• Qian Renxue rejected Ning Bei, failed to awaken the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, and disappeared as the trial plunged him into darkness.
• Ning Bei realized the scene was an illusion and waited in darkness until he fell asleep from lack of progress in his cultivation.
• Ning Bei woke in his old rental room, heard his drinking buddy describe their near collision with a dump truck, and suspected his time in the Douluo World had been a dream.
• Ning Bei failed to summon his Eternal Frozen Domain or Pill Pagoda Martial Soul, finished a work proposal, and went back to sleep instead of drinking with his friends.
• Ning Bei found the subway closed because of the pandemic, learned his meeting was canceled, and returned home after his superior scolded him for missing the notice.
• Ning Bei lamented that he had gone from a powerful Douluo to a corporate slave.
