He entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for a bath, and as Ling Luochen approached the Cold Spring to test her Extreme Ice, Jiang Ming sensed something in the well's depths.

• Jiang Ming descended past 10,000 and 20,000 meters without finding the bottom, while the extreme auras and pressure grew stronger.
• At 30,000 meters, Jiang Ming sensed the pressure of the Dragon Clan, unleashed his Martial Soul, and dived another 3,000 meters to see the source of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Jiang Ming discovered two immense dragon skeletons beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and faced their powerful lingering souls. He contained their attacks with his Million-Year Soul Skills and emerged with the trapped dragon-shaped phantoms as Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen escaped the well.

• Jiang Ming descended more than thirty thousand meters beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and found two enormous dragon skeletons in a vast underground space.
• The skeletons unleashed terrifying Dragon Clan Pressure and attacked Jiang Ming with ice-blue and fiery-red dragon-shaped phantoms.
• Jiang Ming used Darkness Devour and Light of Time and Space to contain ten phantoms, then sealed them in a black bead as he swam upward.
• Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen sensed Jiang Ming approaching and leaped out of the well just before he burst from the water carrying the restrained phantoms.

Jiang Ming trapped ten dragon-shaped phantoms in Darkness Devour and sought the Sun God and War God Dai Mubai’s help identifying the powerful Dragon Clan remains beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. They recognized the remains as the Water Fire Dragon Kings, whose deaths on the Douluo Continent surprised them.

• Jiang Ming flew to ten thousand meters above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where he used Darkness Devour to suppress ten dragon-shaped phantoms and absorb their energy.

• Jiang Ming told Zhang Lexuan and the others to descend, then activated his two Deity Inheritance Marks to ask the Sun God and War God Dai Mubai about the remains.
• Jiang Ming showed the two deities red and blue dragon-shaped phantoms, and they identified them as the Water Fire Dragon Kings, who had vanished after the great battle and apparently died on the Douluo Continent.

The Sun God and Dai Mubai explained the history behind their weakened divine positions and agreed that the Water and Fire Dragon Kings’ remains should stay undisturbed beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Jiang Ming absorbed most of the dragon-shaped phantoms’ energy for his Small World, gave two sealed phantoms to Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, and was called over by Zhang Lexuan about Qiu'er.

• The Sun God recalled being tasked by his predecessor with restoring the Sun God's divine position, and saw Jiang Ming's exceptional talent as a chance to do so.

• Zhang Lexuan called Jiang Ming over to look at Qiu'er.

Jiang Ming helped Wang Qiuer control the Golden Dragon bloodline upheaval triggered by the Water Fire Dragon Kings and began tempering her body with his Bloodline Power. When his Heavenly Eye examined her soul, he discovered it had the form of a Soul Beast, leaving him wondering what Wang Qiuer really was.

• Wang Qiuer's aura became turbulent after reacting to the Dragon Pressure of the Water Fire Dragon Kings, and Jiang Ming froze it while explaining that her Golden Dragon bloodline had been activated.
• Jiang Ming enclosed himself and Wang Qiuer behind earthen walls to suppress and temper her bloodline as Zhang Lexuan led Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Liya to cultivate nearby.
• Jiang Ming found that Wang Qiuer's rampaging bloodline could exhaust her strength, so he restrained it with his own Bloodline Power and had her absorb that power to strengthen her body.
• Jiang Ming opened his Heavenly Eye to guide Wang Qiuer's cultivation and saw that the soul in her Sea of Consciousness resembled a Soul Beast rather than her Golden Dragon Martial Soul.

Jiang Ming discovered that Wang Qiu'er was the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, an Emperor Rui Beast whose Fate Power could help complete the Book of Spirits. He refused to take her Fate Power, then released her suppressed Golden Dragon bloodline so she could attempt to subdue it.

• Jiang Ming and Snow Empress recognized the mysterious power in Wang Qiu'er's vertical eye as Fate Power, and Snow Empress explained the Emperor Rui Beast's importance to Soul Beasts.
• Jiang Ming connected Wang Qiu'er to the Star Dou Great Forest and concluded that her father was Di Tian, complicating his plan to settle their old score.
• Jiang Ming firmly refused to take Wang Qiu'er's Fate Power, resolving to find another source or become a god without it.
• Jiang Ming finished tempering Wang Qiu'er's body until its strength neared that of a Super Douluo, then released the restless Golden Dragon bloodline for her to subdue.

Wang Qiuer subdued the Golden Dragon bloodline and reached Rank Eighty-Seven after a day at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, while Jiang Ming and Snow Empress planned to beat Di Tian before Qiuer revealed her identity. The group left the well and arrived at the Ma Residence in Heaven Dou City.

• Wang Qiuer used Fate Power to suppress the Golden Dragon bloodline, then tamed it herself as Jiang Ming and Snow Empress discussed confronting Di Tian.
• After a day and night at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Wang Qiuer completed her tempering, advanced to Rank Eighty-Seven, and reached near-limit physical strength for her cultivation level.
• Zhang Lexuan told Jiang Ming that she, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Liya planned to return to the well for seclusion and pursue their Deity Trials.
• Jiang Ming and the women said goodbye to Elder Zhuang and the Immortal Herbs, then left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• The group retrieved their carriage near Heaven Dou City and traveled to the Ma Residence, home of the Evil Fire Phoenix Ma Clan.

Jiang Ming visited the Ma residence with Ma Xiaotao and her companions, where he met her father, Ma Lingyun. After an awkward conversation eased into a frank one, Ma Lingyun asked about Jiang Ming and Ma Xiaotao’s cultivation, marriage plans, and future children.

• The Third Prince followed the women after the auction and introduced himself as the Heaven Dou Empire’s Third Prince, claiming he wanted to make friends.
• Zhang Lexuan called the Third Prince a notorious wastrel, and Wang Qiuer charged at him with a punch.

Wang Qiuer beat the Third Prince after he harassed Zhang Lexuan’s group at the Heaven Dou Auction House, leaving him gravely injured while the auction house sought Princess Vina’s help.

• Jiang Ming chose to test the Evil Emperor Seal against Du Busi instead of using Darkness Devour.
• Jiang Ming unleashed the Evil Emperor Seal, and its pressure and spatial distortions forced Du Busi to brace for the attack.

• The descending seal forced Zhang Lexuan and the other women back down before they could reach the battle.
• Jiang Ming withdrew the skill, repaired the spatial cracks, and flew down to check on Du Busi.

Jiang Ming’s Million-Year Soul Skill badly injured Du Busi during their sparring match, though Jiang Ming healed him enough to return safely. Du Busi flew back to the Body Sect to recover and consolidate his breakthrough, leaving Long Aotian and Princess Vina behind.

After Jiang Ming and Ma Xiaotao returned safely from his spar with Du Busi, they shared a family banquet with Ma Lingyun, who welcomed Jiang Ming as his future son-in-law. Ma Xiaotao then took Jiang Ming to her bedroom, where they realized her bed was too small for both of them.

• Ma Xiaotao pressed Jiang Ming onto her bed and settled on top of him, leaving him to wonder how peaceful the night would be.
