Chapter Summaries

Yun Chuan used his life force to restore Bo Saixi’s youth and extend her lifespan after she fell into a coma from sacrificing the Sea God’s power. He discovered that her true Martial Soul was the Water Element Spirit, and he expected her to resume cultivating and eventually become a god.

• Yun Chuan admired the Sea God Divine Armor’s ability to change appearance and transformed the Sea God Trident into a folding fan.
• Yun Chuan moved the unconscious Bo Saixi before him and converted his Five Elements Power into life force.
• Yun Chuan used life force to restore Bo Saixi’s body to the appearance of a thirty-year-old and extend her lifespan to roughly a thousand years.
• Yun Chuan examined Bo Saixi and found that her Sea God Martial Soul had vanished, leaving her original Water Element Spirit.

After inheriting the Sea God Godhood, Yun Chuan left Sea God Hall and reorganized Sea God Island’s leadership. He appointed Hai Long as High Priest and used the island’s gathered Faith Power to strengthen the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians.

• Yun Chuan emerged from Sea God Hall with Bo Saixi, and Qian Daoliu immediately checked her condition.
• Yun Chuan told the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians that Sea God Hall would be dismantled and left a strand of Divine Sense so they could report major problems to him.
• Bo Saixi explained that she had lost her Soul Power and recommended Hai Long as her successor, and Hai Long accepted the position of High Priest.
• Yun Chuan summoned the Faith Power stored across Sea God Island and used it to improve the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians’ strength.

Yun Chuan used Sea God Island’s stored Faith Power to strengthen the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians, raising most to high-level Titled Douluo and Hai Long to Level 99. He planned to help Hai Long reach godhood later, while Bo Saixi would have to regain her former strength through gradual cultivation.

• Yun Chuan poured Sea God Island’s Faith Power into the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians, raising their Soul Power and Soul Ring ages until they could safely handle no more.
• The six guardians besides Sea Dragon Douluo reached Soul Power Levels 96 to 98 and gained 100,000-Year ninth Soul Rings, while Sea Dragon Douluo reached Level 99 with eight black rings and one red ring.
• Yun Chuan considered that Hai Long might become a god someday, but decided to wait until Hai Long could control his newly increased power before granting him a Divine Throne.
• Yun Chuan could not safely restore Bo Saixi’s former strength because her current Martial Soul was incompatible with the power she once held, so she had to cultivate gradually.

Yun Chuan remained on Sea God Island to receive the ocean races and learned more about Sun Moon Continent, prompting him to plan Spirit Hall’s expansion there. Confident that his growing divine power and plans to create Divine Thrones would prevent Spirit Hall’s downfall, he considered the God Realm—not Tang San—the real potential enemy.

• Yun Chuan stayed on Sea God Island as prominent ocean races came to pay respects to him as the new Sea God.
• After learning about Sun Moon Continent and its Soul Tool technology, Yun Chuan decided to establish a Spirit Hall division there and gradually expand its influence.
• Yun Chuan dispatched several ancient Titled Douluo and many other Soul Masters to Sun Moon Continent to found the division.
• Yun Chuan reflected that Spirit Hall’s defeat in the original history had depended on Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue’s mistakes, as well as divine aid for Tang San.
• Yun Chuan judged that he, Bibi Dong, and Qian Renxue could overcome Tang San even if he inherited the Asura Divine Throne.
• Yun Chuan resolved that Spirit Hall could create more gods by crafting Divine Thrones, and regarded the God Realm as its true possible enemy.

After learning about the God Realm’s origins and hierarchy, Yun Chuan weighed his own divine system against its power and considered giving up on helping ordinary people. He concluded that Tang San’s unlikely transmigration and later rise suggested Asura God had arranged Tang San as his successor, leaving Yun Chuan wary of pursuing the Asura Divine Throne.

• Yun Chuan learned from the Sea God’s memories about the God Realm’s origins, its five God Kings, and its ranked and unranked gods.
• Yun Chuan judged that Qian Daoliu had reached the threshold of a Level Three God and might eventually become a Level One God through diligent cultivation.
• Yun Chuan felt intimidated by the God Realm’s strength and considered abandoning efforts to improve the Soul Master System in favor of pursuing the Asura Divine Throne.
• Yun Chuan reasoned that Tang San could not have crossed worlds by his own power and suspected Asura God had arranged his transmigration and cultivation as part of a plan to pass on the throne.

Yun Chuan realized that Tang San’s connection to the Asura God made killing him too dangerous, so he planned to hide his strength and build enough allies to resist the God Realm. After considering Spirit Hall and the ocean’s vast population of powerful Soul Beasts as sources of forces, he recognized that the God Realm’s restrictions on Soul Beasts would also need to be addressed.

• Yun Chuan concluded that he must not kill Tang San before he could contend with the God Realm, lest he provoke the Asura God.
• Yun Chuan decided to lie low, conceal his ability to create Divine Thrones, and cultivate followers and God-rank talent through Spirit Hall.
• Yun Chuan considered his cooperation with the Silver Dragon King and the ocean’s Sea Soul Masters as ways to strengthen his future forces.
• Yun Chuan realized that the ocean held more than a hundred Soul Beasts with cultivations of at least one hundred thousand years, which he could potentially subdue as the Sea God.
• Yun Chuan recognized that the God Realm’s Heavenly Tribulations and cultivation limit prevented Soul Beasts from becoming Divine Beasts.

Yun Chuan concluded that Heavenly Tribulations came from the God Realm’s mark on Soul Beast bloodlines and decided to seek out powerful Soul Beasts in the Far North Land. After leaving Sea God Island and checking in with Spirit Hall, he reached the frozen region and began exploring it on foot.

• Yun Chuan reasoned that Soul Beasts could escape the God Realm’s Heavenly Tribulation mechanism only by leaving its domain or becoming gods, though gods would then face the God Realm’s killers.
• Yun Chuan decided to visit the Far North Land and bring its talented Soul Beasts under his control to build forces for a future conflict with the God Realm.
• Yun Chuan left Sea God Island after settling its affairs, leaving a strand of Divine Sense in the Sea God Hall so Sea Dragon Douluo could report any problems.
• Yun Chuan returned to Spirit Hall, reassured Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, Hu Liena, and the others, then stayed for more than half a month before setting out north.
• Yun Chuan reached the edge of the Far North Land and walked into its icy wilderness to explore the surroundings.

• Yun Chuan heard a distant commotion and spotted the Titan Snow Demon King approaching through the blizzard.
• Yun Chuan concealed his presence as the Titan Snow Demon King passed nearby, and he reflected on the Far North Three Great Heavenly Kings' power and the region's many 100,000 Year Soul Beasts.

Yun Chuan encountered the Titan Snow Demon King in the Far North and marked it so he could find it later, judging its bloodline worthy of cultivation. He then captured a young Ice Jade Scorpion to examine its potential, and its distress signal brought the Ice Jade Scorpion King, Ice Empress, to confront him.

• Yun Chuan saw the Titan Snow Demon King pass through the blizzard and assessed its potential to reach godhood.
• Yun Chuan secretly marked the Titan Snow Demon King before continuing deeper into the Far North.

• Yun Chuan put Ice Empress into his Divine Tool wine gourd and explained that it could store things in a vast inner space.

• Ice Empress realized that absorbing the energy could greatly increase her power, but greater cultivation would bring more dangerous Heavenly Tribulations.
• Ice Empress recalled surviving three Heavenly Tribulations and concluded she had no chance of surviving the coming 400,000-year tribulation.

The Ice Empress absorbed the gourd’s pure energy to reach four hundred thousand years and summon her Heavenly Tribulation, hoping it would help her escape. Yun Chuan realized the tribulation was targeting the gourd, let his armor block its first strike, and began investigating whether an independent space could shield Soul Beasts from the God Realm’s bloodline lock.

• The Ice Empress decided to use the gourd’s energy to reach four hundred thousand years and provoke a Heavenly Tribulation that might break her confinement or help her survive.
