Chapter Summaries

Su Ming used the Six Great Elements and his forging Faith to Spirit Forge Origin Spirit Iron, creating a metal with its own life and Spirituality. After meditating on the achievement, he absorbed the Spirit Forged Metal, while Tang Wulin completed a flawed Thousand Forgings and Mu Chen reassured him.

• Su Ming combined the strength of his other selves and used his Martial Soul and Faith to begin Spirit Forging the Origin Spirit Iron.
• Su Ming unified the metal's Spirituality with repeated hammer strikes, and the judges realized its independent awareness was emerging.
• Su Ming completed the Spirit Forging, producing six-colored light filled with the joy of new life, then sat down to meditate.
• Tang Wulin finished his Thousand Forgings with a crooked strike and worried that his work could not compare with Su Ming's.
• After meditating until night, Su Ming absorbed the Spirit Forged Origin Spirit Iron into his body.
• Mu Chen consoled Tang Wulin, saying his forging talent was strong despite his low Soul Power and Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

After Su Ming’s Spiritual Forging drew the attention of powerful figures, Zhang Tianyang advised him to leave Skysea City and hide at the Blacksmith Association Headquarters in Heaven Dou City. Su Ming prepared to go after the competition and began planning how to develop Light Cluster’s avatar talent.

• Tang Wulin rejected Mu Chen’s offer to use rare treasures to raise his cultivation and vowed to reach the pinnacle through his own efforts.
• Gu Yue restrained Di Tian from attacking Su Ming, noting that several powerful Spiritual Powers were watching him and that his faith aura might be connected to the Spirit God.
• Zhang Tianyang told Su Ming that five powerful Spiritual Powers had been active nearby, including three unfamiliar Limit Douluo, and advised him to leave Skysea City after the competition.
• Zhang Tianyang directed Su Ming to hide at the Blacksmith Association Headquarters in Heaven Dou City, while Zhen Hua confirmed that Su Ming’s Spiritual Forging would soon become known across the forging world and said Mu Ye was coming to escort him.
• Su Ming released Light Cluster and proposed developing its avatar talent so the avatar could be sealed and used when needed.

Su Ming devised a way to use Light Cluster’s talent to stabilize Borrowed Power by storing Soul Power in sealed projections across time. After Light Cluster successfully projected a Soul Ring into the past and two people borrowed Su Ming’s power, Su Ming planned to train them through changing access to the projection while preparing for a strong opponent in the Soul Master Competition.

• Su Ming explained how Light Cluster’s sealed projections could store and return Soul Power, making Borrowed Power more stable for all three of Su Ming’s Main Bodies.
• Su Ming and Light Cluster used the First Soul Skill to anchor Light Cluster to two past eras, where Light Cluster sensed their Soul Spirits but lacked enough Faith Power to form a projection.
• The next day, the two people began to have faith in Light Cluster, who projected his Soul Ring into the past and enabled them to borrow fifty percent of Su Ming’s power.
• Su Ming planned to reduce their borrowed power to ten percent the next day so they would notice Borrowed Power’s flaw.
• Su Ming decided to skip contacting the two people for a day and save power for a strong opponent in the Soul Master Competition, surprising Light Cluster.

Su Ming defeated the Sea and Land Team’s Martial Soul Fusion Skill with a devastating attack, while Tang Wulin struggled with the gap between their strength. Old Tang offered him a possible way to evolve his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul before he broke the Golden Dragon King’s second seal.

• Zhang Zhenpeng asked Long Huantian for three Inner Court application slots and explained the talents of Wang Dongqi and the Zhou Sisters.
• Wang Dongqi exhausted her techniques against Su Ming’s elemental blades, so Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian’er unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Ice Snow Forest.
• Su Ming expanded his power, shattered the Ice Snow Forest with a Six Elements attack, and knocked the Zhou Sisters unconscious.
• Tang Wulin felt despair at Su Ming’s strength, and Gu Yue told him that skill could not overcome such a large power gap.
• Old Tang told Tang Wulin to gather Ten Thousand Year Grass and Wood Essence before breaking the Golden Dragon King’s second seal, so he could try to stimulate a Martial Soul Evolution.

Tang Wulin learned that Old Tang would take control during a match against Su Ming and help him learn, while Zero Class prepared a strategy centered on Xu Xiaoyan’s control and Gu Yue’s support. At night, Xu Xiaoyan’s Star Wheel Chain failed to stop Su Ming, and Old Tang took over Tang Wulin’s body as he charged in.

• Old Tang told Tang Wulin to seek Ten Thousand Year Grass and Wood Essence, promised to demonstrate techniques against Su Ming, and instructed Xu Xiaoyan to save her Soul Skill for him.
• After Su Ming defeated the Zhou Sisters’ Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Zhang Zhenpeng and Long Huantian agreed that the sisters deserved two tournament quotas.
• Tang Wulin, Xu Xiaoyan, and Gu Yue planned how to face Su Ming, with Gu Yue agreeing to handle his two teammates while Xu Xiaoyan tried to control him.
• The draw matched Zero Class against the Sky Sea Team, and the teams met at night as the audience doubted Zero Class could overcome the difference in Soul Rings.
• Xu Xiaoyan’s Star Wheel Chain immobilized Su Ming briefly, but he used Borrowed Power and Trinity to move while still bound.
• Tang Wulin charged at Su Ming and handed control of his body to Old Tang, who decided to demonstrate techniques even though he thought victory was unlikely.

Old Tang took control of Tang Wulin during the match, but Su Ming overwhelmed him with elemental attacks and knocked him unconscious. Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan conceded, and Old Tang fell back into slumber after telling Tang Wulin to gather treasures for the second seal.

• Old Tang used Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, and Golden Dragon Claw against Su Ming, while Gu Yue used the dragon's roar to suppress Long Xin and another team member.
• Su Ming avoided Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon Claw and trapped him inside ten elemental shells before bombarding him with Elemental Power.
• Su Ming charged into the elemental attacks and beat Tang Wulin unconscious, and Shen Yi treated his wounds.
• Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan conceded, and Su Ming's Borrowed Power state faded.
• Old Tang told Tang Wulin to gather Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for the second seal, then fell asleep again.
• Gu Yue told Su Ming she conceded because she only had Elemental Control, and Su Ming privately thought of her as the Silver Dragon King.

Su Ming and Light Cluster tested how well the two past versions of Su Ming understood Borrowed Power, then used repeated power borrowing to push them into finding a solution. In Dou Er, Su Ming mastered Borrowed Power and expanded the Body Sect’s Spirit System, while planning to obtain the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife and prepare for Huo Yuhao’s era.

• Gu Yue concluded that Tang Wulin’s Deity power made it too risky to attack him openly, and Xiong Jun volunteered to deal with him.
• Su Ming and Light Cluster sent projections to the two past Soul Masters, confirmed they had understood the clues, and began borrowing power repeatedly to force them to devise a countermeasure.
• Su Ming left Skysea City for Heaven Dou City with Mu Ye in an oversized Red-grade Mecha, while a Spirit Pagoda Inspector arrived to investigate the improved Soul Spirits and news spread of a Soul Train attack.
• In Dou Er, Su Ming mastered Borrowed Power and sealed its one-time use in a Soul Tool, while considering the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife as a way to improve his chances of obtaining Tian Meng and Electrolux.
• Su Ming gained the Body Sect’s support for Soul Spirits, Spiritual Forging, and Spirit Forged Soul Tools, then proposed that the Su Family help the sect search for Rare Metal Veins.

Su Ming secured support for reforming the Body Sect and arranged Thousand Forged Spiritual Metal for its disciples while discussing Soul Tools and rare-metal mining with Du Busi. He proposed building a Blacksmith Association in Gengxin City, but withheld his knowledge of ore-vein locations because changing the past might undermine the future timeline.

• Su Ming explained that he could not produce more Spirit Forged Metal and arranged to make Thousand Forged Spiritual Metal for the Body Sect's disciples.
• Su Ming suggested dividing Soul Engineer work into Core Array construction and manufacturing, and Du Busi accepted the approach.
• Su Ming argued that Douluo Three Kingdoms likely had undiscovered rare-metal veins and proposed cooperating with other forces to mine them, excluding the Three Great Empires.
• Su Ming proposed developing Gengxin City's blacksmiths into a subordinate force and establishing a Blacksmith Association.
• Su Ming chose not to reveal the ore-vein locations he knew and planned to search for them using surveying equipment to avoid disrupting the timeline.

Su Ming proposed taking control of the declining Blacksmith Association to expand the Body Sect’s influence and improve its recruitment, then traveled with Du Busi and two elders to Gengxin City. There, President Duan Lin revealed the association’s records about Spiritual Metal and the rare metal Soul Beasts it had produced.

• Su Ming explained that the Body Sect could use the Blacksmith Association as a neutral subordinate faction to recruit disciples across the continent, and Du Busi agreed to assess the association in Gengxin City with Su Ming and two elders.
• On the way, Du Busi urged Su Ming to choose a Soul Beast from the Savage Beast Mountain Range for his Third Soul Ring, but Su Ming said he would consider it and privately decided to keep the slot open.
• The group arrived in decrepit Gengxin City and met Blacksmith Association president Duan Lin at the association’s headquarters.
• Su Ming showed Duan Lin a piece of Thousand Forgings Spiritual Metal, and Duan Lin described how Spiritual Metal could develop into a metal Soul Beast.
• Duan Lin said that about a hundred pieces of Spiritual Metal had been made, but only five had become Soul Beasts, and Lei Zhen asked whether they were still alive.

Su Ming secured the Blacksmith Association’s cooperation with the Body Sect and reorganized its ranks while developing new forging methods. After six months in Gengxin City, he prepared to showcase Spiritual Metal at the Starlight Auction in Star Luo City.

• Su Ming revealed that he could forge Spiritual Metal from ordinary metal and had developed Spirit Forged Metal with Life, then proposed that the Blacksmith Association cooperate with the Body Sect.
• Duan Lin accepted Su Ming as president, with Lei Zhen and Eight Arms as vice presidents, and agreed to expand the association and survey for Rare Metal Veins in the Star Luo Empire.
• Su Ming reorganized blacksmith ranks and proposed Soul Forging, which would give forged metal a soul and inheritance.
• After three months, Du Busi returned to the Body Sect to organize its younger disciples, while Su Ming secretly traveled to the Su Family in the Sun Moon Empire.
• After staying in Gengxin City for six months, Su Ming learned that Starlight Auction House would hold an auction in Star Luo City and decided to attend.
• Su Ming forged nine pieces of Thousand Forgings First Grade Spiritual Metal, warned Duan Lin to prepare for challenges from the Star Luo Royal Family and other powers, then set out with Lei Zhen and Eight Arms.

Su Ming brought nine pieces of Spiritual Metal to the Starlight Auction House and arranged for them to be auctioned separately. While reviewing the auction list, he found the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife, a Ranked Carving Knife that had killed all thirty-seven of its previous owners, and decided to bid on it despite Lei Zhen’s warning.

• Su Ming presented a piece of Thousand Forgings First Grade Sinking Silver, and the auction house manager identified it as extraordinarily rich Spiritual Metal.
• Su Ming supplied eight more pieces, and the manager agreed to auction all nine separately before escorting Su Ming, Eight Arms, and Lei Zhen to a private box.
• Qian Qian showed Su Ming the auction list, where he found the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife among the finale items.
• Qian Qian explained that the Ranked Carving Knife was a Fierce Blade made by an Evil Soul Master and that all thirty-seven of its owners had died.
• Su Ming decided to bid for the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife, while Lei Zhen warned him about its unpredictable danger.

Su Ming bought the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife at the Starlight Auction, then watched as the auction revealed Spiritual Silver and other Spiritual Metal that could enhance Martial Souls. The auction house announced that it had nine such pieces prepared, and bidding continued.

• Su Ming told Lei Zhen and Qian Qian that his family already owned a Ranked Carving Knife, then bought the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife for one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.
• Jiujiu introduced Spiritual Metal, explaining that it could resonate with Soul Masters and potentially improve their Martial Souls.

• Jiujiu had the Spiritual Silver delivered to VIP Box 1 and arranged for the Star Luo Royal Family to compete for the remaining pieces.
• Jiujiu announced that the auction house had prepared nine pieces of Spiritual Metal for the auction.

Su Ming escaped the attention of those watching him after auctioning his Spiritual Metals, then encountered Huo Yuhao fleeing the Duke's Mansion and offered to take him toward the Star Dou Great Forest. Tang San discovered an unknown heir near Huo Yuhao and grew alarmed when Su Ming tried to recruit the boy into the Body Sect.

• Su Ming earned seven million Gold Soul Coins from selling nine pieces of Spiritual Metal and left the Auction with Lei Zhen and Eight Arms, who split up to distract their pursuers.
• Su Ming concealed himself with Spiritual Power and Faith Power, passed through Star Luo City's north gate, and met Huo Yuhao running in terror.
• Huo Yuhao apologized for crashing into Su Ming, then asked to accompany him to the Star Dou Great Forest in exchange for grilling fish and washing clothes.
• Tang San used the God Realm Core to monitor Huo Yuhao and sensed an unknown person whose faint Power of Time and Space blocked his perception.
• Su Ming learned that Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul was the Spiritual Eye and urged him to join the Body Sect, prompting Tang San to stir the divine consciousness in Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness.

Su Ming traveled with Huo Yuhao toward the Star Dou Great Forest, offering to help him hunt souls while keeping the Body Sect’s invitation open. After reaching the forest’s outskirts, Su Ming caught fish with his ice abilities, and Huo Yuhao began grilling them before an unfamiliar voice interrupted.

• Huo Yuhao firmly refused Su Ming’s invitation to join the Body Sect and asked whether Su Ming was going to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt souls.
• Su Ming revealed that he was eleven years old, level thirty, and had a Thousand-Year Second Soul Ring, leaving Huo Yuhao envious and dispirited.
• Su Ming offered to help Huo Yuhao hunt souls and said the Body Sect would welcome him if he changed his mind.
• Su Ming and Huo Yuhao traveled for six days to the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, where Huo Yuhao eagerly offered to grill fish for Su Ming.
• Su Ming used ice abilities to catch and retrieve dozens of fish, and Huo Yuhao prepared them over a fire before an irritating voice exclaimed that they smelled fragrant.

Su Ming and Huo Yuhao entered the Star Dou Great Forest, where Su Ming protected Huo Yuhao from a Wind Baboon and endured Tian Meng’s mental attack. As Tian Meng revealed himself, Electrolux descended and entered Su Ming’s Sea of Consciousness, where his Gray Airflow began transforming an Engraving Knife.

• Tang Ya and Bei Bei arrived while Su Ming and Huo Yuhao were grilling fish, and Tang San watched them from the God Realm before deciding not to disrupt Huo Yuhao’s fate.
• After eating, Su Ming and Huo Yuhao headed into the Star Dou Great Forest, and Tang Ya and Bei Bei hurried after them, worried the boys would hunt Soul Beasts alone.
• Huo Yuhao sensed a Wind Baboon attacking, and Su Ming killed it with one punch, leaving Huo Yuhao stunned by the difference in their strength.
• Tian Meng unleashed a powerful mental shockwave, but Su Ming used Borrowed Power and the Star Tree to withstand it before Tian Meng appeared as a gigantic silkworm.
• As Tian Meng began introducing himself to Huo Yuhao, Electrolux descended from the darkened sky and entered Su Ming’s Sea of Consciousness, where his Gray Airflow began transforming the Engraving Knife.

Su Ming discovered that Electrolux's protection blocked Tang San's spying, while Tang San's planted Rakshasa God Power triggered Huo Yuhao's fusion with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Huo Yuhao awoke with a million-year Soul Ring and a new ice-element Second Martial Soul slot, while Su Ming helped him conceal the truth from Tang Ya and Bei Bei.

• Electrolux used Faith Power to create a defense in Su Ming's Sea of Consciousness, purified the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife, and fell asleep inside the Spirit Blade.
• Tang San activated the Rakshasa God Power he had planted in Huo Yuhao, causing Huo Yuhao to suffer as Tian Meng entered his Sea of Consciousness and fused with him.

• Huo Yuhao revealed his Martial Soul, showing a crystalline White Soul Ring after learning he had gained a million-year Soul Ring and an ice-element Second Martial Soul slot.

After Huo Yuhao revealed his Spiritual Eye Martial Soul, Tang Ya and Su Ming clashed over whether he would join Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect or the Body Sect. Su Ming fought Bei Bei to defend his claim, and Bei Bei was sent flying.

• Bei Bei sensed Huo Yuhao’s Mental Attribute, and Huo Yuhao explained that his Martial Soul was the Spiritual Eye.
• Huo Yuhao admitted he was an orphan, prompting Tang Ya to recruit him for Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect while Su Ming insisted he join the Body Sect.

• Su Ming revealed his yellow and purple Soul Rings and used an elemental vortex to launch a swift attack.
• Bei Bei activated his Third Soul Skill, Wrath of Thunder, but Su Ming’s strike sent him flying as Tang Ya shouted his name.

• Aunt Zhao struck Su Ming with her Fifth Soul Skill, Colorful Spirit's Blessing, and sent him flying.
• Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao recognized Su Ming as a Body Sect member and resolved to kill him.

Su Ming fought off Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao after Tang Ya fled with Huo Yuhao, then used his Flying Soul Tool to lure the Shrek elders toward Gengxin City. As he reached Lei Zhen and Eight Arms, the pursuers closed in and a thunderous voice challenged them on behalf of the Body Sect.

• Tang Ya secretly absorbed vitality from nearby plants to suppress her injuries, knocked Huo Yuhao unconscious, and fled with him while Bei Bei withdrew from Su Ming.
• Uncle Zhao attacked Su Ming with Great Vajra Palm and Position Tracking, but Su Ming met his strike with Supreme Wave Fist and forced him back.

• Su Ming used a communicator to contact Lei Zhen and Eight Arms, then deliberately let his Soul Power fade so Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao would continue pursuing him.
• As Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao closed in on the weakened Su Ming, a thunderous voice condemned Shrek for bullying the young and defending the Body Sect.

Su Ming survived an attack by two Soul Emperors with help from Lei Zhen and Eight Arms, then told them how Shrek disciples had tried to take Huo Yuhao. In the God Realm, the God of Destruction confronted Tang San over the lost Rakshasa Divine Position, while Tang San planned to tie Xiaoqi to Huo Yuhao before the Body Sect could retaliate.
