Within the ice layer, a miracle was slowly emerging. Endless ice-white flowing light dyed the vast permafrost. A powerful to the extreme aura gradually collected, and eventually vanished completely.
That white airflow flickered continuously until it stopped, and at the same time, the airflow began to shatter apart.
The next moment.
A snow-white, tender, and delicate little hand reached out from the airflow. Slowly, she seemed quite greedy for those fragments of white airflow, constantly grabbing at them. As the fragments were excessively taken away, a figure appeared within the eternal ice layer.
It was a little girl who looked only three years old sitting there. She licked her jade-like tender hand as if tasting the flavor. Perhaps it was because it was a little sweet—her slightly baby-fat little face suddenly revealed an extremely adorable smile.
Those deep blue eyes were like a vast ocean, carrying a radiance that didn't belong to her age, yet her expression was childishly pure like naïve clarity.
Silver-white hair with slight curls, a small body emitting a faint platinum glow—despite being so young, she unexpectedly gave people a noble feeling.
But such an adorable appearance did not last long. As an ice-blue light merged into the little girl's body, her cute face stiffened slightly, and the next moment, her body began to grow rapidly. In the blink of an eye, she became a young girl who appeared about twelve or thirteen years old.
Her silver-white long hair fell down to her hips, no longer curled but extremely smooth. On her exquisite and pure face, her rosy, beautifully-shaped lips pressed together, neither happy nor sad. Coupled with her emotionless eyes, she looked like a queen indifferent to everything.
As she slowly stood up, a stunning scene appeared. She was dressed in a simple white gauze dress. The exposed skin was like fine, warm white jade, even carrying a gentle glow. A thin ribbon around her waist revealed her slender waistline.
She wore no shoes. Her white, tender, smooth feet were like freshly peeled eggs, making one feel the urge to hold and cherish them.
Perhaps she thought of something, and the girl's lips revealed a slight smile. Unfortunately, no outsiders were here—otherwise that smile would have left many unable to forget.
"Thank you, Bing'er."
Relying on the strand of origin power separated by Bing Di, she directly fixed her cultivation at the thirty-rank level of a human.
As for why this level—Xue Di herself felt a little strange. It seemed Bing'er purposely made her cultivation match that human's.
But that was fine—she saved some cultivation time.
Xue Di willed, and instantly, two purple spirit rings rose from beneath her feet.
Seeing spirit rings originally belonging only to humans appear on her own body, a trace of emotion flashed across Xue Di's eyes. She had never imagined she would one day begin transforming toward humanity.
Crack.
Suddenly, a crisp breaking sound rang out. Xue Di's gaze moved slightly, turning to look. Currently she had not completely become human and could still travel through the ice.
But when she saw the ice surface behind her, she was slightly stunned. Instinctively reaching out to place her hand upon it—just as she touched it, the ice suddenly shattered.
A straight icy tunnel appeared before her, leading who-knows-where.
"What is this?" A trace of curiosity appeared in Xue Di's heart.
Her fingertip slid along the ice wall. Xue Di seemed to sense something and stepped forward resolutely. She walked dozens of meters, and when she reached the end, her eyes shook violently.
A vast hollow cavern appeared before her, as if the eternal ice layer had been dug out from within. In front, dazzling ice-blue soft lights danced like fireflies.
From where Xue Di stood, layers of stairs ascended upward, ending at a tightly sealed door-like structure. The soft lights danced around this gate.
Everything looked normal, yet for some reason Xue Di suddenly clutched her chest—her heart felt a tug. She quickly walked up the stairs and stopped before the gate.
Just as she arrived, a marvelous wave swept across her body. Before she could react, a gentle voice sounded:
"Born of heaven and earth, Ice and Snow Maiden, are you willing to inherit this seat's godhood?"
Xue Di's eyes widened, her cold face showing a rare stunned expression. But as the ruler of the Extreme North, she quickly calmed and hurriedly asked, "May I ask who you are?"
"This seat's name is Bing—this name should be unfamiliar to you. But another title of this seat, you should know very well—Bing Shen."
That gentle voice answered calmly.
At the words "Bing Shen," Xue Di's body stiffened. In the Extreme North, who had not heard the name of the Ice God?
Just like sea creatures revered the Hai Shen, every being in the Extreme North revered the Ice God the same way.
But the Ice God's era was far too ancient. Even Tianmeng Iceworm, who lived the longest, had never seen the Ice God's true form.
"This is a strand of divine sense left in the Ice God Temple. When my descendants of the Extreme North arrive here, it will activate. If you are willing to inherit my godhood, this divine sense will open the path of godhood for you. But remember—the road to godhood is nine deaths for one life. Without immense determination, do not covet lightly, or bear the consequences yourself."
"If you refuse, this divine sense will remove your memories and send you away. You have one minute to decide."
Xue Di's breathing grew heavier. Why did she re-cultivate as a human? Was it not to chase the path to godhood?
She thought that path was merely a desperate extension of life—letting her live a few hundred more years as a human. Yet today, fate suddenly changed.
"I am willing to inherit your godhood. No matter the trial, Xue Nv will take them all. I will bear all consequences—life or death."
Xue Di looked solemnly and respectfully toward the door.
"Very well."
A majestic sound spread out.
Boom!
The tightly sealed door swung open heavily. Cold air surged out. Beyond the door was unclear—only a vortex-like tunnel. Stepping in, the outcome unknown.
"May I ask Lord Bing Shen—after I enter, will I still have the chance to come back out?" Xue Di asked nervously. She still had matters to arrange. If she died silently within, the Extreme North would fall into chaos—that was not what she wanted.
"Complete the first three god trials, then you may leave. These three tasks are the simplest among those you will face," the Ice God's divine sense replied.
Hearing this, Xue Di's gaze firmed. Without hesitation, she stepped into the vortex to seek the unknown future.
Boom. The gate closed again, and frost began to seal everything.
It seemed everything ended—but within the Extreme North, a monumental upheaval erupted.
…
Swoosh.
Snow and soil met as Yan Shaozhe brought Huo Yuhao out of the Extreme North. Ahead was the human world.
Even Yan Shaozhe felt relief.
Yet less than ten seconds after the two left that icy realm, above the Extreme North, a twisting aurora-like light erupted across the sky.
Its range covered exactly the outer boundary—no more, no less.
"What is happening?" Yan Shaozhe and Huo Yuhao grew wary, turning back quickly.
Boom!
The next moment, their expressions froze. A column of light shot into the sky within the Extreme North, accompanied by a terrifying cloud vortex. And a voice rang out—one neither of them understood.
But spirit beasts understood.
Throughout the Extreme North—cultivating beasts, hunting beasts, resting beasts—all trembled violently, raising their heads toward the pillar of light.
The next moment, they all displayed the posture of submission belonging to their race, eyes filled with endless awe and excitement.
…
In the icy sea near the Extreme North, beneath the deep water, a massive shark spirit beast surfaced. Its sharp gaze fixed on the light pillar.
"Bing Shen?"
As if sensing something unbelievable, the shark dove instantly and swam away at terrifying speed, like a streak of flowing light through the sea.
If someone familiar with sea spirit beasts saw it, they would recognize the overlord-level species—Mo Hun Da Bai Sha.
At the same moment, in the God Realm Committee hall during daytime—
Warning chimes echoed throughout the structure.
Instantly, five figures teleported into the hall.
Under the gazes of the five Divine Kings, a light screen displayed the Extreme North of Douluo Star. The towering light pillar was clear to see.
"This is a godhood-inheritance signal. Someone on Douluo Continent is about to inherit a god position again," the Evil God Ji Dong said with surprise, glancing toward Hai Shen Tang San.
As if saying, Your world keeps producing monsters, huh?
Tang San frowned slightly, unsure what to express.
"Life Goddess, which god's inheritance signal is this?" the Kind God Lie Yan asked curiously. She and Ji Dong came late to the God Realm and inherited their positions rather muddle-headed, so many things were unfamiliar.
The Life Goddess' gaze shifted. "This is the Ice God's inheritance signal. And this signal seems intentionally transmitted to the God Realm—to draw our attention. Strange. Normally god inheritances hide themselves as deep as possible."
Hearing this, Ji Dong and Lie Yan exchanged glances.
So the Ice God was guarding against something?
The God of Destruction spoke calmly. "The Ice God is also a first-rank god. But he left the God Realm long ago—we don't know what became of him. I didn't expect he left an inheritance on Douluo Star."
"What should we do?"
The Life Goddess asked.
The God of Destruction smiled. "We observe. If the Ice God's inheritor succeeds, it increases the God Realm's strength. What do you all think?"
He looked at Ji Dong, Lie Yan, and Tang San.
"We couple agree," Ji Dong smiled.
"And you, Hai Shen?" The God of Destruction turned to Tang San.
Tang San smiled gently, "I agree."
"Good." The God of Destruction nodded. The Ice God had once existed in the God Realm—his shrine still remained. If he returned, the water and ice aligned gods would all benefit.
A good thing.
"Sea God takes duty this afternoon—we shall leave." The God of Destruction smiled and left with the Life Goddess.
Ji Dong and Lie Yan smiled. "We'll rely on you today, Hai Shen. Call if needed."
With Tang San's polite nod, the hall emptied, leaving him alone.
His smile faded. His gaze chilled as he stared at the fading light pillar projection. Xin Xing had temporarily left his control. He couldn't allow the Extreme North to slip away too.
The Extreme North worshiped only one god since ancient times—Bing Shen. But the Ice God became a legend long ago. Yet he, the Sea God, could use proximity advantage—step by step replacing the Ice God's place in the hearts of the Extreme North's lifeforms.
Once successful, the faith-power obtained would be second only to the ocean—far greater than the human world's.
But this move by the Ice God cut off his plan forcefully.
It seemed the divine sense left by the Ice God had noticed him.
And with the other four Divine Kings watching—if he acted recklessly, he would be exposed instantly.
He had to act more quietly.
Why so many troublesome matters lately?
Utterly annoying.
…
"Xiao Zi, your expression isn't right. Are you hiding something from me?"
In the private quarters of the God of Destruction and Life Goddess, the Life Goddess leaned in his arms playfully.
The God of Destruction kissed her forehead and looked into the distance. "The Ice God is guarding against someone—that's why he deliberately alerted us when passing down godhood."
"Guarding against who?" she asked.
"Who else?" He chuckled. "You forgot? After the Ice God became a god and came here, many years later, someone named Poseidon appeared. He conquered the Douluo ocean and wanted to conquer the Extreme North. But his stay ended, and he was brought back."
"You mean Hai Shen?"
She reacted instantly.
"Yes," the God of Destruction nodded. "When the Ice God was leaving the God Realm, Poseidon had just arrived. Because Poseidon wanted to take the Extreme North, the Ice God disliked him greatly—they had a bad relationship."
"But the Ice God didn't know Poseidon later gave up his godhood and left. So now he is guarding against Poseidon—not Tang San. But since Tang San holds the Sea God position... it falls on him."
"I suspect Tang San has the same idea. And fate placed this flame upon him."
The Life Goddess blinked. "Xiao Zi… do you know something?"
The God of Destruction waved his hand. The room sealed. A purple glow appeared, forming an image.
It showed last night—Tang San watching the Douluo monitoring screen.
Everything was normal—until the screen warped. A soul descended from a foreign world outside God Realm jurisdiction, landing in someone's body. Then the view blurred, and Tang San's expression soured.
Seeing it, the Life Goddess froze.
The only thing that could block the God Realm's surveillance… was a world's own consciousness.
Douluo Star already had a plane consciousness?
Then why did Tang San not report it?
The God of Destruction said solemnly, "I suspect Tang San is plotting Douluo Star. I have no evidence. So I want your support to allow my secret investigation of Hai Shen."
"I admit—I dislike him. Why did the former Evil and Kind Divine Kings hand the God Realm core authority to him? But I accepted it. I know I cannot take it back. Yet I will never allow Tang San to treat a plane as his private property."
"You can rest assured—if he does nothing extreme, I won't cause him trouble."
Seeing his serious expression, the Life Goddess hesitated, thought, and finally nodded.
The God of Destruction rejoiced, grabbing her and heading toward the bed.
Tonight, a fierce battle was inevitable.
