Yu Tianlin returned to Heaven Dou City after leaving Thunderbolt Canyon with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, then visited Shui Bing'er at Four Elements Academy to give her the remaining Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow. The chapter ended as Tian Meng dispelled his Simulation in front of Shui Bing'er.

• Yu Tianlin left Thunderbolt Canyon carrying the Thunder God Hammer and traveled to Heaven Dou City with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm concealed by Simulation.
• Yu Tianlin noticed the city felt more tense than before and decided to investigate what had happened during his absence later.
• Yu Tianlin went to Four Elements Academy to give Shui Bing'er the remaining Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow so she could strengthen herself.
• Yu Tianlin reunited with Shui Bing'er in her office and noticed she had reached level seventy-two and become a Soul Saint.
• Shui Bing'er sensed something strange around Yu Tianlin, so he asked Tian Meng to dispel Simulation and reveal what he had been concealing.

Yu Tianlin gave Shui Bing'er a piece of Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow to help her reach the Titled Douluo realm, while warning Tian Meng not to consume it and risk a million-year heavenly tribulation. He then left Heaven Dou City for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to learn what had happened during his absence.

• Yu Tianlin revealed Tian Meng and explained that, despite his nine-hundred-thousand-year cultivation, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had weak combat strength.
• Yu Tianlin offered Shui Bing'er the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow, and Tian Meng agreed not to eat it because it could bring on a dangerous heavenly tribulation.
• Yu Tianlin said the marrow could help Shui Bing'er reach the Titled Douluo realm, and she accepted it so she could stand beside him in the future.
• Tian Meng told Shui Bing'er that Yu Tianlin had recently driven off a powerful Titled Douluo, and Yu Tianlin scolded him for describing the fight too vividly.
• Yu Tianlin spent half a day with Shui Bing'er at Four Elements Academy, then traveled to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to find out what had happened during the past half year.

Yu Tianlin returned to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect with the Thunder God Hammer and told Yu Yuanzhen about his recent gains. After learning that Bibi Dong had reached peak level 98 and was driving border kingdoms and duchies toward rebellion, Yu Tianlin felt renewed urgency to catch up.

• Yu Tianlin showed Yu Yuanzhen the Thunder God Hammer and confirmed that he had raised his First Soul Ring to seven hundred thousand years.

• Yu Tianlin realized how far Bibi Dong had advanced toward becoming a Limit Douluo and felt an urgent need to strengthen himself.

Yu Tianlin left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to continue training and went to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace to ask Xue Ye for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. Xue Ye acknowledged the empire’s treasure and asked what Yu Tianlin would offer in exchange.

• Yu Tianlin returned the Dragon Slaying Blade to Yu Yuanzhen and explained that the Thunder God Hammer would protect him as he resumed training.
• Yu Tianlin left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and went to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, where Xue Ye and Xue Beng met him.
• Xue Ye praised Yu Tianlin for defeating Thousand Ton Douluo and said he regretted that the empire had been unable to help at Northern Frontier City.
• Yu Tianlin asked Xue Ye for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and Xue Ye admitted the empire possessed it but asked what Yu Tianlin wanted it for.
• Yu Tianlin claimed the treasure would help him reach the Titled Douluo realm and offered to exchange something for it.

Yu Tianlin exchanged a three-hundred-thousand-year Azure Dragon Soul Bone with Xue Ye for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. After learning that the imperial family had avoided probing it with Spiritual Power, Yu Tianlin planned to investigate the treasure himself.

• Yu Tianlin presented a three-hundred-thousand-year Azure Dragon Torso Bone, and Xue Ye recognized its extraordinary value.
• Xue Ye agreed to exchange the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud for the Soul Bone after Yu Tianlin insisted on a fair trade.
• A guard brought the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and Yu Tianlin and Xue Ye exchanged the treasures.
• Xue Ye warned Yu Tianlin not to probe the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud with Spiritual Power, saying it could drain blood and harm him.
• Yu Tianlin realized that Spiritual Power was necessary to earn the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud's recognition and decided to study it on his own.

Yu Tianlin discovered that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud responded to Soul Power but would not recognize him, since he was already the Thunder God's inheritor. He tried offering it to Yu Yuanzhen and then Yu Tianheng, whose recognition attempt was underway when Dugu Yan went to fetch Ye Lingling.

• Yu Tianlin found that Spiritual Power could not sense the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, while Soul Power let him activate its five skills.
• Yu Tianlin concluded that the Sea God would not recognize him because he was already the Thunder God's inheritor.
• Yu Yuanzhen tried to gain the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud's recognition but failed without suffering serious harm.
• Yu Tianlin brought the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to Yu Tianheng, who began losing blood as it attempted to recognize him.
• Dugu Yan tried to pull the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud away, but Yu Tianlin stopped her, and she went to find Ye Lingling to help Yu Tianheng.

Yu Tianlin failed to make anyone in his sect refine the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, so he set out for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to pursue another plan. He entered the valley and brought out the Fire Element Holy Dragon and Water Element Holy Dragon spirit bones, which drew in the surrounding energy.

• Yu Tianlin failed to find anyone who could gain the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud's recognition, though he decided to keep it for its hidden Sea God power.
• Yu Tianlin said goodbye to Yu Yuanzhen and left the sect, intending to continue training and eventually reach level ninety.
• Yu Tianlin traveled east to Sunset Forest and left the Thunder God Hammer outside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well after it reacted to the valley's energy.
• Yu Tianlin entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in Full Body Dragon Transformation, and neither the well nor the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud rejected his presence.
• Yu Tianlin took out the Fire Element Holy Dragon and Water Element Holy Dragon spirit bones, and the valley's worldly energy enveloped them.

Yu Tianlin used the Water Element Holy Dragon and Fire Element Holy Dragon soul bones to neutralize the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well’s extreme temperatures, then trained against its crushing water pressure until he reached rank ninety. With time running short, he activated the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to descend farther, wary that the two great Dragon Kings might react.

• Yu Tianlin jumped into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with the two Holy Dragon soul bones positioned to counterbalance its hot and cold springs.
• Yu Tianlin dived until the increasing water pressure forced him to stop, then cultivated while gradually adapting to the pressure.
• Yu Tianlin broke through ranks eighty-eight and eighty-nine, then reached rank ninety after less than a year of cultivation.
• Yu Tianlin judged that only two and a half years remained before Qian Renxue completed the Angel God's inheritance, so he decided to investigate the pool's depths without further delay.
• Yu Tianlin activated the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to block the water pressure and watched tensely for any hostile response from the two great Dragon Kings.

Yu Tianlin descended beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and found the enormous corpses of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings, along with their dragon souls. He identified their arm bones as soul bones and, with the dragon souls watching, reached out to claim them.

• Yu Tianlin used the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and two soul bones to descend deeper into the pool.
• Yu Tianlin discovered the Water and Fire Dragon Kings' immense, intact corpses at the bottom.
• Yu Tianlin identified the Water Dragon King's Left Arm Bone and the Fire Dragon King's Right Arm Bone as soul bones he could absorb.
• Yu Tianlin activated the two Holy Dragon Soul Bones, drawing out the Water and Fire Dragon Kings' dragon souls.
• Yu Tianlin approached the corpses and pressed his hands onto the two Dragon Kings' arm bones.

Yu Tianlin absorbed the Water-Fire Dragon King Left and Right Arm Bones, enduring their opposing energies as they clashed inside him. The bones vanished, and he discovered that his arms had gained enough power to tear open space.

• Yu Tianlin pressed his hands against the Water-Fire Dragon King Left and Right Arm Bones and withstood their repulsive force.
• The two dragon souls stopped repelling him and sent extremely cold and hot energies into his arms, which began wearing down the Thunder God's Power.
• Yu Tianlin moved the Thunder God's Power into the Golden Lightning Mark and forced the opposing energies to collide inside his torso.
• Yu Tianlin endured the unceasing pain until the energies weakened and the two Dragon King Soul Bones disappeared.
• Yu Tianlin realized he had absorbed the bones when his hands sliced open space, then avoided the dragon souls to escape further torment.

Yu Tianlin escaped the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well after absorbing two Dragon King-level soul bones, then collapsed from exhaustion in Dugu Bo’s Poison Array. After waking several days later, he learned that Spirit Hall had established its empire while he had been away.

• Yu Tianlin left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well while the Water-Fire Dragon King’s souls pursued him, but they stopped at the valley’s boundary.
• Yu Tianlin fainted in Dugu Bo’s Poison Array after the conflicting energies stopped and his exhaustion overwhelmed him.
• Dugu Bo found Yu Tianlin unconscious and, after confirming he was safe, chose not to notify the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect.
• Yu Tianlin woke four or five days after Dugu Bo found him and explained that he had jumped into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to cultivate.
• Dugu Bo told Yu Tianlin that Spirit Hall had allied with the kingdoms and duchies to establish the Spirit Hall Empire, leaving Yu Tianlin shocked by how much time had passed.

After waking from a long coma, Yu Tianlin learned that three years had passed and that war between the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall Empire was approaching. He went with Dugu Bo to Heaven Dou City and entered the council hall, where the gathered leaders were surprised by his arrival.

• Dugu Bo told Yu Tianlin that three years had passed since their battle against Qian Renxue and that conflict between the two empires was nearing.
• Yu Tianlin retrieved the Thunder God Hammer and considered his strength and options for a ninth Soul Ring, but decided against targeting the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
• Dugu Bo brought Yu Tianlin to Heaven Dou City because Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Luomian, and Yu Tianlin's father were meeting with Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi.
• Yu Tianlin entered the council hall with Dugu Bo, surprising everyone except Yu Yuanzhen, and Dugu Bo took his seat after greeting Xue Ye.

Xue Ye and the other leaders assessed the Spirit Hall Empire’s forces and agreed to mobilize quickly, while Yu Tianlin learned that Heaven Dou could field fourteen thousand soul masters against the twenty thousand expected to face them. After the meeting, Yu Tianlin reunited with Yu Yuanzhen and revealed that he had reached level ninety.

• Xue Ye warned that Spirit Hall was reorganizing its forces and could assemble forty thousand soul masters, urging an early attack.
• Yu Yuanzhen, Ning Fengzhi, Xue Ye, and their allies counted fourteen thousand soul masters for Heaven Dou’s side and planned for war against Spirit Hall.
• The leaders finalized their strategy and dispersed to prepare their forces for deployment.
• Yu Tianlin told Yu Yuanzhen that he had reached level ninety, and Yu Luomian took Yu Yuanzhen’s remark about bottlenecks as a jab at him.

Yu Tianlin and the Heaven Dou Empire’s forces prepared for war as Bibi Dong weighed whether to confront them or retreat to Jialing Pass. Bibi Dong chose to fight, leaving both empires poised for battle.

• Yu Yuanzhen apologized for not accompanying Yu Tianlin to obtain his ninth soul ring, but Yu Tianlin said he had another target and was not in a hurry.
• The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect mobilized six thousand soul masters, who joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire’s forces at the border.
• The Heaven Dou Empire assembled fourteen thousand soul masters and five hundred thousand troops against the Spirit Hall Empire’s twenty thousand soul masters and three hundred thousand troops.
• Bibi Dong’s generals argued over whether to retreat to Jialing Pass or fight the Heaven Dou Empire while its forces were still limited.
• Bibi Dong decided to fight, aiming to heavily wound the Heaven Dou Empire before it could mobilize more troops.

Qian Daoliu sent Golden Crocodile Douluo and the other worship elders to support Bibi Dong’s war against the Heaven Dou Empire while he stayed behind to oversee Qian Renxue’s Angel God trial. The two armies met on the plains, and Bibi Dong ordered the battle to begin as Yu Tianlin prepared to strike Spirit Hall hard.

• Qian Daoliu told Golden Crocodile Douluo to lead the worship elders to support Bibi Dong and seek a chance to recover the final piece of the Angel God Set from Yu Yuanzhen.
• Bibi Dong and the Spirit Hall Empire army confronted the Heaven Dou Empire’s forces on the plains rather than retreating to Jialing Pass.
• Hu Liena worried about the enemy’s powerful Titled Douluo, but Bibi Dong assured her that the worship elders would come and put her in command of the army.
• Bibi Dong ordered the Spirit Hall Empire forces to form ranks and begin the battle as both armies advanced with their soul master legions at the center.
• Yu Tianlin assessed Spirit Hall’s forces and prepared to deal the Spirit Hall Empire a heavy blow so he could leave the campaign to seek his ninth soul ring.

The chapter left Yu Yuanzhen facing Bibi Dong, who had reached level ninety-nine and recognized the divine weapon he carried.

• Four Spirit Hall Empire worshippers arrived, and Yu Tianlin teleported in and struck Golden Crocodile Douluo down with the Thunder God Hammer.

• Bibi Dong revealed she had reached level ninety-nine and recognized Yu Yuanzhen’s cleaver as a divine weapon.

The Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall Empire began their great war, but the decisive battles among their strongest fighters remained deadlocked. After half a day, the Heaven Dou flying troops gained the advantage, while Dugu Bo appeared to be defeating the maimed Thousand Ton Douluo.

• Yu Tianlin fought three Spirit Hall consecrators, while Yu Yuanzhen and Bibi Dong and Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi and Golden Crocodile Douluo fought to a standstill.
