He planned to establish a Langya Auction House main branch in the Central Martial Region while leaving elders and guards to protect the existing branch.

• Lin Shu absorbed the God-Bestowed Soul Ring without pain, and Lin Ye saw that its gold ring held black wisps as Lin Shu reached Soul King status.

• Lin Shu brought Lin Yurou and Su Qian into the Sky-Guarding Shuttle’s cabin and asked Su Qian whether she had invited Elder Yao Feng to the auction.
• Su Qian admitted she had invited Elder Yao Feng to study the pills and asked Lin Shu to sell the Empire their formula.

• Lin Shu reassured Su Qian that she could remain Chief Auctioneer, then dismissed her and immersed himself in the system to claim his rewards.

After raising his Devouring Martial Soul to the Godly level and increasing his Soul Power to level sixty-four, Lin Shu went to Stone Gate to investigate its role in his father’s death. He exposed Stone Gate’s involvement, captured its master Shi San, and destroyed the sect’s core leadership.

• Lin Shu used his auction reward to advance the Devouring Martial Soul into the Devouring God Martial Soul and raised his Soul Power from level fifty-nine to sixty-four.
• Lin Shu arrived at Stone Gate with Lin Yurou and his subordinates, drawing attention from the locals before Stone Gate’s master, Shi San, came to meet him.

• Yu Lian and four Super Douluo subdued Shi San and his companions, and Shi San admitted that the Hammer Heaven Sect had ordered Stone Gate’s participation.
• Lin Shu ordered his subordinates to kill Stone Gate’s core members while sparing its ordinary people and service staff, and Stone Gate was destroyed.

After leaving Stone Gate, Lin Shu suspected Langya Hall and Hammer Heaven Sect were secretly allied, then used a hundred-draw lottery to gain valuable items and summon six powerful experts. He ended the chapter preparing to inspect his remaining Ninth Grade rewards.

• Lin Shu left Stone Gate with Hammer Heaven Sect added to his objectives and wondered why it secretly cooperated with Langya Hall.

• Lin Shu considered giving Huo Qingwu the Phoenix Immortal Sunflower, then turned back to inspect his other Ninth Grade rewards.

• Lin Shu inspected a Violet Lightning Hammer Martial Soul and stored it away, considering auctioning it or giving it to Lin Yurou later.
• Lin Shu examined the Frost Staff and Heavenly Wind Fan, then put both Ninth-Grade Soul Tools aside to auction.
• Lin Shu discovered that Soul Dispersion Incense could dissolve Soul Power and decided to keep it, while Spirit Awakening Incense could greatly boost cultivation and Soul Skill comprehension.
• Lin Shu inspected a three-hundred-thousand-year Azure Luan Soul Ring and concluded he would have to auction it because he could not yet use it.
• Lin Shu turned his attention to the two divine-grade rewards.

Lin Shu discovered a 1.2-million-year Golden Divine Dragon God-Bestowed Soul Ring and the divine-grade Evil Eye Divine Kun Martial Soul, but he could not use either himself. He decided to help Lin Yurou replace her bird-type martial soul with the Evil Eye Divine Kun, and had Shui Jieyu begin the process of abolishing it.

• Lin Shu learned that the Golden Divine Dragon Soul Ring still held the will of a true god-level dragon and could only be absorbed if he earned its recognition.
• Lin Shu found that he could not fuse with the Evil Eye Divine Kun Martial Soul because he already had martial souls and none were related to fish or birds.
• Lin Shu decided the Evil Eye Divine Kun was suited to Lin Yurou, whose bird-type martial soul had limited potential, and asked if she would agree to replace it.
• Lin Yurou agreed, and Lin Shu summoned the ninety-eighth-level Super Douluo Shui Jieyu to abolish her current martial soul.

Lin Shu had Shui Jieyu carefully abolish Lin Yurou’s Martial Soul, then gave her the Evil Eye Divine Kun Martial Soul factor to fuse with. As Lin Yurou began adapting to the new Martial Soul, Su Qian sensed a presence inside the cabin that surpassed her Four-Winged Angel Martial Soul and waited to learn its identity.

• Lin Shu had Shui Jieyu freeze Lin Yurou, abolish her Martial Soul with precise Soul Power, and repair her body as she woke.
• Lin Shu gave Lin Yurou the Evil Eye Divine Kun Martial Soul factor and urged her to fuse with it so she could grow powerful enough to follow him.
• Su Qian saw the powerful figures outside the cabin and wondered what force supported Lin Shu with so many Super Douluo.
• Su Qian’s Four-Winged Angel Martial Soul stirred, and she realized a presence inside the cabin surpassed its rank, prompting her to await the cabin’s opening.
• Lin Yurou successfully began fusing the Evil Eye Divine Kun Martial Soul and started the process of adapting to it.

As they entered the Central Martial Region, Su Qian led the group toward Langya Hall, while legends of a hidden divine inheritance in Qingzhou caught Lin Shu’s attention.

• Lin Yurou told Lin Shu she expected to become a Titled Douluo within ten years, and Lin Shu promised to avenge his father by destroying Langya Hall and Juntian Sect after Stone Gate.
• Su Qian sensed Lin Yurou’s changed power and considered asking her sister, Empress Su Yao, to recruit Lin Shu, but decided to focus on her work as Chief Auctioneer.
• Lin Shu asked Lin Ye for directions to Langya Hall, and Su Qian offered to guide them through the Central Martial Region.
• The Sky-Guarding Shuttle entered the Central Martial Region, where Su Qian explained its provinces and described Qingzhou’s legend of an undiscovered Inheritance Divine Land.
• Lin Shu wondered whether the Langya Auction House might hold clues to the Inheritance Divine Land, but doubted it would have survived if it did.

Langya Hall’s elders discussed their search for clues about the Azure God Hall and recalled how Su Yao had once overwhelmed them. Their meeting was interrupted by a challenger demanding that Langya Hall come out and die, and its powerhouses went to confront a flying shuttle.

• Langya Hall’s elders debated whether Lin Langya had known about the Azure God Hall clue and whether they should fight the force monitoring Qingzhou.
• The central middle-aged man warned that the suspected guardians of the Azure God Hall included Peerless Douluos who might possess Godly Martial Souls.

• Langya Hall’s powerhouses appeared in midair before a flying shuttle and questioned how an eighth-grade flying soul tool dared provoke them.

Lin Shu led eleven powerful Super Douluo in an attack on Langya Hall, then summoned one hundred Titled Douluo to ensure the sect’s destruction. Langya Hall’s elders began fighting while its Third Elder went to summon the ancestors, as Lin Shu’s forces descended in overwhelming numbers.

• Lin Shu brought Yu Lian and ten other Super Douluo to the skies above Langya Hall aboard the Sky-Guarding Shuttle.
• The Langya Hall Master asked the attackers who they were and offered to meet their demands, but Lin Shu declared that Langya Hall must vanish and ordered his forces to attack.
• The eleven Super Douluo unleashed their Martial Souls, while the Langya Hall Master ordered the elders to fight and sent the Third Elder to summon the ancestors.
• Several Soul Martial Emperors flew toward the Sky-Guarding Shuttle, and Lin Shu summoned exactly one hundred Titled Douluo.
• Lin Shu ordered ten Titled Douluo to guard the shuttle and sent the rest to eliminate everyone in Langya Hall.

A hundred Title Douluo emerged from the Sky-Guarding Shuttle and joined the eleven Super Douluo in overwhelming Langya Hall. Lin Shu’s forces trapped the Langya Hall Master and surviving elders, leaving them to be captured for questioning.

• Soul Douluo sent to attack the Sky-Guarding Shuttle were stunned as a hundred Title Douluo emerged from it.

• The Third Elder summoned Langya Hall’s two ancestors and several Supreme Elders after reporting that eleven Super Douluo were attacking.
• The ancestors arrived at Langya Hall and discovered its Hall Master and four Super Douluo elders captured, while one hundred Title Douluo faced the hall’s forces.
• The ancestors called for a retreat, but Shui Jieyu, Huo Qingwu, Yu Lian, and the others pursued and subdued them and the Third Elder.
• Lin Shu’s forces brought Langya Hall’s surviving upper echelon aboard the Sky-Guarding Shuttle, where they recognized Lin Shu as Lin Langya’s son.
• Lin Shu demanded to know what Langya Hall was searching for, and the Hall Master answered that they sought clues to the Azure God Hall.

Lin Shu learned why Langya Hall secretly targeted the Langya Auction House and discovered that the Divine Hall Guardian Force suppressed Qingzhou’s factions. After executing Langya Hall’s leaders, he decided to spread news of the Divine Hall so other powers would confront its guardians while he pursued his own path to godhood.

• The Langya Hall Master explained that the Divine Hall Guardian Force watched Qingzhou and prevented its factions from growing too powerful, forcing Langya Hall and the Hammer Heaven Sect to hide their cooperation.
• Lin Shu ordered Langya Hall’s senior members executed, and the Langya Hall Master warned him that a level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo with a Godly Martial Soul would come for him.
• Lin Shu told Su Qian he would spread news of the Divine Hall so the Empire and other factions would challenge its guardians, rather than pursuing the inheritance himself.
• Su Qian asked whether Lin Shu wanted to become a god, and Lin Shu reasoned that inheriting a divine position could not be the only path and trusted his system.

Lin Shu turned Langya Hall’s former grounds into Heavenly Pavilion and planned a major auction, while the destruction of Langya Hall drove most of Tianding City’s other forces to flee. He renamed the city Sky City, leaving Heavenly Pavilion poised to claim it as its own.

• Lin Shu dismissed the need to seek the rumored Divine Hall and explained that spreading the rumor would draw people to search Qingzhou.
