Gula took the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to use her Power of Destiny and the valley’s energy to strengthen the Golden Tree Soul Spirit. After the Golden Tree reached the Two-Hundred-Thousand-Year level without evolving, Gula prepared to begin the most important step, targeting the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s fate-bearing third eye.

Gula sent the Three-Eyed Golden Lion back to her own time, obtained the Dragon God's limited knowledge of destiny, and gave Qing Liuli a mutated Bodhi Seed to cultivate as a Soul Spirit. After Devil Island's purification triggered a struggle over its resources, the major factions agreed to settle their shares through a youth tournament, and Gula received a Spirit Pagoda notice inviting eligible members to register.

• Gula used his status as Leng Yaozhu’s direct disciple to bypass the Spirit Pagoda’s internal selection and received a place on its team.

• Bai Yuan and Long Qingshan faced each other in the Soul Emperor competition, and Gula instructed Bai Yuan to prolong the fight so he could study Long Qingshan’s dragon soul and unyielding domain.
• Bai Yuan exhausted Long Qingshan with his devouring attacks, then used Ultimate Devour and Abyss Maw to defeat him.

• Gula revealed that Qiangu Dongfeng, the Holy Spirit Cult, and forces within the Federation planned to launch two Level Twelve Soul Guided Cannonballs at Shrek City, leaving Yun Ming shocked and uncertain how to protect the academy.

Gula killed Wang Shaojie after the Sun Moon Academy students barred Huo Yuhao from the laboratory, then used a display of dangerous Soul Tools to deter the academy from retaliating.

Gula left Radiant City with Huo Yuhao’s team, anticipating that Zhong Liwu and other Evil Soul Masters would attack him in the Jingyang Mountain Range. He used his Angel Soul Spirit and a barrage of Evil Bane explosives to wound the four Title Douluo, then mocked them as the battle continued.
