Lou Gao revealed the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor’s strength and powerful flame amplification, while Quan Yi discovered that it responded to him and transformed to match his Scarlet Dragon Horns.

• Quan Yi continued adapting to a one-hundred-thousand-kilogram load while Huo Wu’s rapid progress made him feel pressured.
• Quan Yi brought Huo Wu to the Forging Factory, where Lou Gao had completed his long-awaited Soul Guidance Armor.

• The armor transformed into a dragon-horned helmet resembling Quan Yi’s Scarlet Dragon Horns as he channeled Soul Power into it.
• Lou Gao named it the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor and explained that it could withstand Soul Skill attacks at the Soul Douluo level and amplify flames by two hundred percent.

Lou Gao showed Huo Wu and Quan Yi the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor’s propulsion system and explained that Quan Yi still needed to engrave its Soul Power patterns to complete it. He then demonstrated the newly forged explosive spears, leaving Quan Yi and Huo Wu testing their immense weight and sudden thrust.

• Lou Gao rotated the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor and explained that its amplified flames could propel the hundred-thousand-kilogram armor into short bursts of flight.
• Quan Yi said he would engrave the Soul Power patterns himself to complete the armor.
• Lou Gao presented ten explosive spears and three shields, and Quan Yi tested a spear by driving it through a thick block of Dark Iron.

• Huo Wu lifted a spear and accidentally triggered its thrust, staggering forward before Quan Yi and Lou Gao praised her control.

Lou Gao explained how Scarlet Scale Evil Dragon horn powder strengthened the shield’s absorption and unified the Soul Guidance properties of their equipment, while Quan Yi praised Lou Gao and invited him to direct the Quan Family’s future Soul Tool Research Institute.

• Huo Wu and Quan Yi returned the explosive spears to the rack and tried the Flame Devourer shields Lou Gao introduced.

• Quan Yi and Huo Wu flew to Sunset Forest the next day and used the Scarlet Dragon’s flames to pass through the Poison Array.
• Huo Wu sensed the Ice and Fire Spring’s two opposing auras through the Scarlet Dragon’s barrier and asked whether they would cultivate there.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu arrived at Dugu Bo’s Poison Array, where Dugu Bo tested Quan Yi’s strength and revealed that he had overcome his poison and broken through. Dugu Bo welcomed them, and Quan Yi asked to cultivate in seclusion there with Huo Wu.

• Dugu Bo charged at Quan Yi and the Scarlet Dragon, and Quan Yi sent Huo Wu behind the dragon before meeting him head-on.
• Quan Yi and Dugu Bo repeatedly clashed using pure strength, then stopped when the Scarlet Dragon began to crack.

• Quan Yi told Dugu Bo that he and Huo Wu wanted to cultivate in seclusion at the Poison Array.

Quan Yi brought Huo Wu to the spring so she could cultivate by absorbing its extreme energies. Huo Wu endured the scorching Supreme Hot Yuan Power and used Phoenix's Protection to adapt her meridians, successfully turning it into Soul Power.

• Dugu Bo questioned why Quan Yi had brought Huo Wu to the spring, and Quan Yi explained that she had come to cultivate.
• Huo Wu's body struggled against the spring's opposing energies until she summoned her Fire Shadow Martial Soul and used its Ultimate Fire to shield herself.
• Huo Wu activated Phoenix's Protection, which amplified her flames and rapidly repaired damage to her meridians.
• At Quan Yi's urging, Huo Wu circulated her Soul Power around a wisp of Supreme Hot Yuan Power despite the pain and heavy Soul Power drain.
• Huo Wu adapted to the heat, absorbed the energy as her own Soul Power, and sensed that her Soul Power had been purified.

Huo Wu gradually adapted to the Supreme Hot Yuan Power while Quan Yi prepared a house for their seclusion. Quan Yi then inspected the changing Blazing Sun Dragon Spear and brought out several Soul Guidance weapons, drawing the surrounding Yuan Power toward them.

• Huo Wu absorbed eight wisps of Yuan Power, using less Soul Power as her meridians grew stronger, until her Soul Power and Mental Power were exhausted.
• Quan Yi carried Huo Wu out of the valley, helped her rest, and built a wooden house while she recovered.
• Quan Yi furnished the house, and Huo Wu blushed at the sight of the single large bed.
• Quan Yi returned to the spring and found that the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear had softened while its hidden spirituality and power continued to grow.
• Quan Yi brought out the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor, the "explosion" spear, and the "Flame Devourer" Shield, and the surrounding Supreme Hot Yuan Power surged toward them.

Quan Yi tested the Soul Guidance Equipment in the Blazing Yang Spring, where its heat melted and purified the gear while strengthening its hidden traits. Back at the wooden house, Huo Wu challenged him over their single bed, and the two shared a kiss before teasing each other.

• Quan Yi activated the Scarlet Dragon Eye and threw ten spears into the Blazing Yang Spring, where the spring suppressed their explosive power.
• Quan Yi tossed the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor and the Flame Devourer shield into the spring and watched them melt as impurities were removed and their metal spirituality grew stronger.
• Quan Yi reflected that he had relied on Lou Gao to forge the equipment’s initial forms and planned to reshape them after the spring’s treatment.
• Quan Yi returned to the wooden house and found Huo Wu on the bed, where she asked why he had brought only one bed.
• Quan Yi kissed Huo Wu, and afterward they teased each other about who had started it.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu resumed their closed-door training after sharing a meal with Dugu Bo, and Quan Yi committed to adapting to his 100,000-kilogram Weighted Armor before gaining a seventh Soul Ring. He then developed plans to upgrade the armor with weapon storage, precise thruster control, and underwater functions.

• Quan Yi decided to propose to Huo Wu, and the two later joined Dugu Bo for a feast of Evil Spirit Orca meat.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu returned to cultivating that night, with Quan Yi training in the Blazing Yang Spring and Huo Wu cultivating in the Wooden House.
• Quan Yi put on his 100,000-kilogram Weighted Armor and vowed to keep it on throughout their seclusion, while returning to three daily sessions of extreme physical training.
• Quan Yi designed an exclusive storage space for the armor so he could carry his explosion spear and Flame Devourer shield.
• Quan Yi planned to adapt the Dragon Abyss Boat's control system to fine-tune the armor's thrusters and to use Memory Metal to make the armor suitable for land, air, and water.
• Quan Yi drew on Yun Qiong's Scroll of Mountains and Rivers and the Dragon Abyss Boat to plan air storage, air detection, and a Soul Power-operated seal for underwater combat.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu completed ten months of intense training in the valley, with both of them advancing two Soul Power levels and Quan Yi breaking through to level 70. After their morning run, they went to the spring for a special day.

• Quan Yi planned the Soul Guidance Runes for his armor and continued absorbing Yang Quan's energy to improve his Soul Power.
• Huo Wu spent a month adapting to the Supreme Hot Yuan Power, tempering her body, Martial Soul, Soul Power, and External Soul Bone before her Soul Power began to rise again.
• Over ten months, Quan Yi and Huo Wu trained by running laps in heavy armor while Dugu Bo watched from the mountain.
• Quan Yi reached level 70, and Huo Wu reached level 65, with both having gained two levels during their seclusion.
• After completing their run, Quan Yi and Huo Wu ate, rested, and went to the spring for a special day.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu watched the weapons and equipment emerge from the Yin Spring after two weeks of quenching. Quan Yi discovered that the gear had concealed its power while gaining substantial weight, then stored the transformed spear and examined the shield.

• Quan Yi waited with Huo Wu until ripples and Dragon Roars signaled that the fifteen weapons and pieces of equipment were ready to emerge.
• The weapons and equipment shot from the Yin Spring, released waves of Dragon Might, then fell after recognizing Quan Yi’s aura; he caught them with his Dragon Claws.
• Quan Yi explained to Huo Wu that the equipment’s subdued appearance showed it had learned to contain its power rather than waste energy.
• Quan Yi sensed the spear’s immense stored Explosive Power, noted that its weight had risen from ten thousand to fifteen thousand kilograms, and stored it in the Blazing Sun Heart.
• Quan Yi lifted the Flame Devourer shield and found that its weight had increased from around twenty thousand to thirty thousand kilograms.

Quan Yi tested the reforged shield and found that it stored, fired, and replenished immense Fire Element energy. He then drew the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear, whose increased weight and power caused his body to grow and swell.

• Quan Yi inspected the shield’s energy reserves and discovered that it had condensed blazing Fire Element energy inside.
• Quan Yi fired a Blazing White Ray from the shield and found that the shot used little of its stored energy and that the shield absorbed Supreme Hot Yuan Power to replenish itself.
• Quan Yi activated Flame Devourer, draining nearby fire energy and briefly turning the area bitterly cold before the shield refilled.
• Quan Yi tested the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear and found that it weighed at least fifty thousand kilograms and had developed greater spirituality.
• Quan Yi connected with the spear spirit, and its utmost yang and utmost hard energy entered his body, making him grow taller and his muscles swell.

Quan Yi tested the strengthened Blazing Sun Dragon Spear and Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor, finding that both had gained powerful abilities. After storing the armor and spear, he approached the spear and his External Soul Bone spread across his upper body.

• Quan Yi discovered that the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear doubled his strength and could amplify flames, endure longer, and recover on its own.
• Quan Yi assembled the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor and found that it weighed one hundred fifty thousand kilograms and amplified flames by three hundred percent, or four hundred percent at its Spray Orifices.
• Quan Yi tested the armor's Soul Power and quickly cut off the output to prevent the heat from causing a major disturbance.
• Quan Yi stored the armor, took Huo Wu to the Wooden House, and planted the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear in front of it.
• Quan Yi approached the spear, and his External Soul Bone spread from his forehead until dragon scales covered his face and upper body.

Quan Yi tested the new Dragon Transformation powers of his External Soul Bone and prepared to engrave Soul Guidance Runes onto the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear. He formed a carving knife from his Nebula Flame and began work on the spear’s flattest Dragon Scale, while Dugu Bo watched in alarm.

• Quan Yi discovered that his Dragon Transformation increased his strength and fire attribute by fifty percent and gave him sharp Scarlet Dragon Tooth and durable, regenerating Dragon Scales.
• Quan Yi scanned the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear and searched for a suitable place to engrave runes that could transform its size and mass.
• Dugu Bo arrived and watched as Quan Yi prepared to carve the spear, while Huo Wu assured him that Quan Yi had planned ahead.
• Quan Yi summoned a black-gold carving knife from his Nebula Flame, which Huo Wu described as his strongest attack and defense.
• Quan Yi focused on the spear’s flattest Dragon Scale, but maintaining the Nebula Flame consumed an enormous amount of power.

Quan Yi successfully engraved runes onto the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear, allowing it to shrink without losing its power, and used it to finish engraving the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor. A week later, Quan Yi and Huo Wu visited Dugu Bo, who understood they were preparing to leave and led them up the mountain to give them some things.

• Quan Yi used Nebula to engrave Soul Guidance Runes onto the Blazing Sun Dragon Spear and confirmed that it could shrink while retaining its strength and power.
• Huo Wu and Dugu Bo examined the miniature spear, and Quan Yi demonstrated its heat and dragon aura by channeling Soul Power into it.
• Quan Yi used the spear to engrave the Scarlet Dragon Skyfire Armor over the following week.
• Quan Yi and Huo Wu arrived at Dugu Bo's cave, and Dugu Bo said he had expected their departure and led them toward the mountain top to give them some things.

Dugu Bo offered Quan Yi and Huo Wu two herbs from his Medicine Garden as a farewell gift, and Quan Yi chose a Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower for Huo Wu. Huo Wu began absorbing it beside the Blazing Yang Spring, while Quan Yi’s discovery that the herb carried phoenix-like energy suggested it might also help Wutong.

• Dugu Bo invited Quan Yi and Huo Wu to choose two herbs from his Medicine Garden, and Quan Yi thanked him while teasing him for being tsundere.
• Quan Yi led Huo Wu to a Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and explained how its Fire-attribute properties could benefit her.
• Huo Wu recognized the herb as the legendary Phoenix Blood Grass and recounted how it was said to transform a Five-Colored Spirit Chicken into a red phoenix.
• Quan Yi used his Scarlet Dragon Eye to confirm the herb’s phoenix-like energy and carefully picked it, believing it might help Wutong recover its vitality.
• Dugu Bo advised Huo Wu to hold the herb in her mouth and absorb its energy with Soul Power, and Huo Wu began refining it beside the Blazing Yang Spring.

Huo Wu absorbed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, awakening Wutong and feeding its energy to her living Sixth Soul Ring. Quan Yi chose the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to strengthen the Metal attribute of his Blazing Sun Gauntlets, but its effects also triggered a powerful surge of vitality as he began refining it.

• Huo Wu absorbed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, and the awakened Wutong drew its energy into her Sixth Soul Ring.
• Quan Yi selected the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to reinforce the Metal attribute of his Blazing Sun Gauntlets, despite Dugu Bo's warning look.
• Quan Yi swallowed the chrysanthemum's petals and stamen, then used his Soul Power to separate its medicinal properties from its Metal-attribute energy.
• The herb's medicinal power stirred Quan Yi's vitality, swelling his limbs and beginning to remodel his body as he lay on the ground.
• Quan Yi sent the Metal-attribute energy into his Blazing Sun Gauntlets, whose metallic aura grew heavier while their Fire-attribute Soul Power became active and scorched the energy.
