• Ma Xiaotao told Liu Xinghan she was leaving to defeat the Guardian Beast and retrieve the Fire God Spear, and the Red-robed Divine Envoy allowed him to come along.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy explained that he awakened only when a suitable inheritor appeared, which was why he had not seen the Azure Phoenix Family members who visited after Feng Wutian.
• Ma Xiaotao revealed that she had reached level ninety-nine, making her a Limit Douluo.
• The three traveled deeper through the magma and entered a crimson realm containing an altar engulfed in golden-red divine flames.
• A Fire Phoenix emerged from its nest in a gigantic Wutong Tree, recognized Ma Xiaotao as the inheritor, and prepared to defend the trial grounds.

After Ma Xiaotao passed the Fire God's trial, Liu Xinghan received a Divine Fire Parasol Tree Heart from the Red-robed Divine Envoy. He left the inheritance site with it and began absorbing its energy in seclusion, aiming to break through to Soul Emperor.

• Ma Xiaotao returned with the Fire God Spear, and the Red-robed Divine Envoy warned Liu Xinghan that only the Fire God's inheritor could hold it.
• As the mysterious space began collapsing, the Red-robed Divine Envoy broke open the Divine Fire Parasol Tree and gave Liu Xinghan its heart, explaining that it could increase his cultivation when powdered and added to bathwater.
• Liu Xinghan left the inheritance site while Ma Xiaotao stayed to complete her remaining three trials, and the Flame Vortex and mysterious space disappeared.
• Gu Yuena identified the Parasol Tree Heart as an energy core that would not conflict with Liu Xinghan's previous Immortal Herbs.
• Liu Xinghan went to a cave with Gu Yuena, dissolved the powdered heart in a jade tub, and entered the red water to absorb its energy.

After seven days absorbing the Parasol Tree Heart, Liu Xinghan reached Soul Power level sixty and advanced his Soul Scripture Cultivation Method to major mastery. Gu Yuena turned the Nirvana Feather into a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, and Liu Xinghan prepared to add it to his Summoning Tome, only to wonder whether he could summon a spirit beast without a corpse.

• Feng Jiutian and Feng Cangqiong worried that Liu Xinghan had stolen the Azure Phoenix Family’s treasure and debated whether to confront him at Spirit Hall.

• Gu Yuena told Liu Xinghan that seven days had passed and suggested he absorb a Spirit Ring before returning to the Azure Phoenix Family.
• Liu Xinghan remembered that the Nirvana Feather could serve as a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring and asked Gu Yuena to prepare it.
• Gu Yuena infused the Nirvana Feather with divine power and transformed it into a golden Spirit Ring.
• Liu Xinghan summoned his Summoning Tome and realized that, without a spirit beast’s corpse, absorbing the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring might not let him summon a spirit beast.

Liu Xinghan risked absorbing a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring and successfully gained a Hundred Thousand Year sixth ring, raising his Soul Power to Level 65. When he used its spirit skill, it summoned a silver dragon, which he recognized as a Silver Dragon and connected to Gu Yuena.

• Liu Xinghan chose to use the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring on his Summoning Tome, gambling that the Fire Phoenix feather might produce a powerful summon.

• Liu Xinghan activated his Sixth Spirit Skill outside the cave, and a gigantic silver dragon appeared.
• Liu Xinghan recognized the dragon as a Silver Dragon and turned to look at Gu Yuena.

Liu Xinghan summoned a seemingly soulless Silver Dragon, a Hundred Thousand Year replica that Gu Yuena could control and use to unleash devastating magic. After it drained his Soul Power and vanished, Liu Xinghan asked Gu Yuena to teach him how to fight with it, and she revealed there was one method.

• Liu Xinghan and Gu Yuena examined the summoned Silver Dragon and speculated that it was a replica connected to Gu Yuena’s divine power.
• Liu Xinghan discovered that the Silver Dragon had no intelligence and could only move when he controlled it, leaving him unsure how to use its innate skills.
• Gu Yuena took control of the Silver Dragon and blasted apart a distant mountain peak with a massive fireball.
• The Silver Dragon vanished after exhausting Liu Xinghan’s Soul Power, and Gu Yuena said it was likely a replica of her.
• Liu Xinghan asked Gu Yuena to teach him the Silver Dragon’s fighting methods, and she said there was one way.

Liu Xinghan absorbed Gu Yuena’s battle memories and learned how to control his Silver Dragon summon, but Gu Yuena used the exchange to uncover his secrets. After learning about his system and Divine Artifact Fragments, she promised to help him become the Origin God in exchange for aid for the soul beast clan, then asked to see all five fragments.

• Gu Yuena restored Liu Xinghan’s Soul Power and shared her inherited battle memories with him, while secretly reading some of his memories in return.

• Liu Xinghan claimed his Soul Emperor reward, obtained a fifth Divine Artifact Fragment, and showed Gu Yuena all five.
• The five Divine Artifact Fragments triggered an unexpected change when Liu Xinghan placed them together.

Liu Xinghan’s five Divine Artifact Fragments fused into a black iron plate that transformed his Summoning Tome Martial Soul, but the missing corner meant the Origin Divine Artifact was still incomplete. After testing his changed Martial Soul, he discovered that summoning the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear no longer seemed to consume his Soul Power.

• The five Divine Artifact Fragments fused into a black iron plate, which Gu Yuena said did not match her memory of the Origin Divine Artifact being a book.
• Liu Xinghan placed the iron plate on his Summoning Tome Martial Soul, and its divine power transformed the tome into a crystal-like form.
• Liu Xinghan found no divine trial, and he and Gu Yuena suspected the iron plate’s missing corner meant another fragment remained; his system showed a Divine Artifact Fragment among the rewards for reaching Soul Saint.
• Gu Yuena offered to arrange a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrifice to help Liu Xinghan reach Soul Saint, and he tested his transformed Martial Soul by summoning the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear.
• Liu Xinghan noticed that summoning the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear no longer seemed to consume his Soul Power.
