• Zilean proposed delaying the Goddess of Life’s arrival so Luo Chen would have time to grow stronger, and Luo Chen decided to hear her out before choosing how to deal with the Divine Realm’s God Kings.

He revealed that he had reached level 99 and offered Tang Yuehua a chance to become a Soul Master through Master Ornn’s instruction, leaving her eager to go with him.

• Tang Xiao welcomed Tang San and Tang Hao, then listened as Tang Hao described meeting Ah Yin and fighting Luo Chen.

Tian Meng spread her Million-Year Soul Beast presence across the Far North Ice Plains to lure the Ice Empress, while Luo Chen set up a comfortable camp near their chosen meeting place. The Snow Empress and Titan Snow Demon King sensed the immense presence and hurried toward it, leaving the Ice Empress racing to confront Tian Meng.

• The Ice Empress charged through a blizzard toward Tian Meng, furious at her provocations and determined to kill her.

Tian Meng provoked Ice Empress into attacking the ice cliff, while Luo Chen used Tian Meng’s spiritual interference to divert every strike and Ah Yin protected the summit.

Luo Chen convinced the Ice Empress to join him by explaining how she could become a god as one of his Aspects, then revealed that he wanted the Snow Empress as his fifth soul ring. As they waited for the Snow Empress to arrive, Luo Chen demonstrated his immense power and prepared to face her if she demanded a fight.

• Luo Chen invoked The Star Forger, and the Snow Empress and Ice Empress's consciousnesses entered his Martial Soul Space, where a golden Stairway to Godhood appeared before them.

Luo Chen guided Snow Empress and Ice Empress up the Stairway to Godhood, then transformed them into his Aspects and gained their Soul Rings, raising his cultivation to Peak Soul Emperor. The two women awoke with Divine Power at the level of peak First-Class Gods and accepted their new bond with Luo Chen.

• Ice Empress grew closer to Luo Chen, and he welcomed both women as family.

After completing the Aspect transformation, Luo Chen worked with the Snow Empress and Ice Empress to create protective External Soul Bones. Their new powers helped them ascend the Path to Godhood, but Luo Chen was left unsure what the Snow Empress’s robe could do.

• Luo Chen asked the Snow Empress and Ice Empress to help choose External Soul Bones that would not overlap with his existing weapons.
• Luo Chen and the Ice Empress formed the Ice Jade Emperor Armor from his ribs, granting him lightweight protection and a barrier that could freeze harmful forces.

• Luo Chen asked what the robe could do, but he could not yet understand or activate its strange abilities.

Luo Chen outlined plans to unite humans and Soul Beasts by moving the Star Dou Great Forest’s Soul Beasts to the Far North and using Mount Targon to awaken their intelligence. When the Snow Empress introduced him as the Far North’s future sovereign, A-Tai rejected his authority, and Luo Chen punished him for his defiance.

• The Snow Empress promised to make the Far North’s Soul Beasts loyal to Luo Chen, who explained his plan to build Mount Targon and bring its benefits to the region.
• Luo Chen said Gu Yuena had agreed to relocate the Star Dou Great Forest’s Soul Beasts to the Far North, where they and the humans would eventually establish their own nations.

• The Snow Empress restrained A-Tai with Divine Power and declared Luo Chen the Far North’s future sovereign, while the Ice Empress and Tian Meng revealed their new forms.
• A-Tai condemned the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress for submitting to a human, so Luo Chen forced him to his knees and hurled him off the ice cliff.

Luo Chen left the Snow Empress, Ice Empress, and Tian Meng to govern the Far North while he traveled deeper into the region to find a site for Mount Targon. After learning about the Soul Beasts’ doomed future and Luo Chen’s plan to offer them a path to godhood, A-Tai regretted defying him and decided to apologize.

• The Snow Empress pleaded with Luo Chen to spare A-Tai, and Luo Chen assigned her, the Ice Empress, and Tian Meng to gather the Far North’s Soul Beasts and convey his will.

Luo Chen and Gu Yuena began building Mount Targon in Ice God Canyon, while her immense divine power drew the attention of powerful figures across Douluo Star and the Divine Realm. The Sea God ordered Bo Saixi to obey Luo Chen, the Angel God offered Qian Daoliu her Godhood, and the gods learned that Gu Yuena was reshaping the world by drawing on stellar power.

• At the God Realm Committee, the God Kings worried about Gu Yuena’s attempt to turn the Douluo Star into a God Star and accepted that they had to coexist with Luo Chen while facing the Void.
• In the Far North, Luo Chen opened his Sun Disc and Celestial Star Crown Martial Souls so Gu Yuena could wield The Star Forger’s power and create a star.
• Gu Yuena drew in the eighty-eight constellations and raised Mount Targon, reshaping the surrounding land into a future home for Soul Beasts while preserving a cold barrier between them and human lands.
• Luo Chen planned to return to Spirit City after visiting Anivia in Element City, and he examined the Fifth and Sixth God Trials that had appeared in his Martial Soul Space.
• Luo Chen and Gu Yuena could find no trace of the Fallen Ascended, so Luo Chen suspected the Darkin were dormant and decided to keep searching for their weapons.
• Luo Chen told Gu Yuena to meet him in the Frozen Forest outside Skywater City after she and the Snow Empress settled matters, while Gu Yuena headed to assist the Soul Beasts.
