Chapter Summaries

Luo Chuan sent thirty-two teams to the Northern Icefield Battlefield for a seven-day competition against Abyss Creatures, giving each Soul Master a one-use power boost to protect their life. The teams’ first battle against a Black Bee Army ended in victory, and the energy gained from defeating the creatures strengthened the Soul Masters.

• Luo Chuan explained the competition rules, gave each participant a one-time boost of tenfold strength, and sent the teams through a Space Rift to the Northern Icefield Battlefield.
• Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Luo Shen Hall’s team emerged into a swarm of Black Bee Army soldiers, and Zhu Zhuqing struck first.
• Xiao Wu and Luo Si joined the fight, while Ma Hongjun, Huo Wushuang, and other Soul Masters attacked the swarm as the remaining teams arrived.
• The teams wiped out several thousand black bees, and the spiritual energy released by the creatures strengthened the Soul Masters and brought one Blazing Academy Soul Emperor close to a breakthrough.

Hu Liena urged the elite teams to spread across the battlefield and support one another, while Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing organized separate groups to travel with them. The teams set out with new alliances, including Huo Wu joining the Shrek Team and Feng Xiaotian forming a team with Huo Wushuang.

• Hu Liena told the elite teams to disperse, join forces in small groups, and help nearby teams when they encountered danger.
• Tang San invited other teams to follow the Häagen-Dazs Team, and Mu Zhan's War Team and Hu Yanli's Elephant Armor Team joined him.
• Zhu Zhuqing chose the Skywater Team to travel with her, and she asked Huo Wu to join her before assigning the Shrek Team to accompany Huo Wu instead.
• Oscar promised to protect Ye Lingling after Hu Liena warned the Shrek Team not to let anything happen to her.
• Huo Wu refused Feng Xiaotian's request to join her group, so Huo Wushuang formed a team with Feng Xiaotian.

The teams joined forces to face the growing Abyss invasion, while Luo Shen Hall used Soul Tools to scatter enemy forces across the Northern Ice Plains. Hu Yanli proposed that Tang San share ranking rewards in exchange for battle merits, but Tang San rejected the arrangement and left the allies to cooperate without a reward-sharing pact.

• Huo Wushuang, Tang Long, and Yu Tianheng agreed to combine their teams, while Xie Yue formed a group with Ghost Shadow and Qin Tian's Seven String Team.
• Hu Liena warned the teams to signal for help if they met enemies they could not handle, and the groups dispersed as Abyss Creatures began appearing in greater numbers.
• Jing Hongchen ordered Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon Shells to bombard the Hyena Army, splitting its tens of thousands of creatures into smaller groups.
• Tang San explained to Mu Zhan that Luo Shen Hall's bombardment would make the Abyss Creatures easier to fight and improve their safety.
• Hu Yanli proposed that the Elephant Armor Team and War Team give battle merits to Häagen-Dazs in exchange for a share of ranking rewards, but Tang San refused.

The teams prepared to hunt Abyss Creatures on the snow-covered mountains, while Tang San rejected sharing rankings with the allied teams. Feng Xiaotian’s group planned an ambush and learned that he had already drawn away part of the enemy, leaving them to face the remainder.

• Tang San refused to divide ranking rewards with the allied teams, and Dai Mubai supported his decision to earn their own merits.
• Huo Wushuang used Purple Demon Eyes to estimate that roughly three hundred hyena-like Abyss Creatures were approaching, and explained the technique to Feng Xiaotian and the others.
• Feng Xiaotian proposed splitting up to lure away enemies while Tang Long and Yu Tianheng led the group against those left behind; the others agreed to his plan.
• Feng Xiaotian went north to scout, and Huo Wushuang reported that he had lured away two Soul Sage-level creatures and more than a hundred smaller enemies.
• Yu Mo'er set off to join the fight, and the Divine Wind Team followed, leaving two Soul Sages, thirteen Soul Emperors, and around a hundred and fifty Soul Kings to face.

Yu Tianheng, Yu Tianxin, Tang Long, and the others fought the Hyena Army, discovering that killing Abyss Creatures replenished their strength. Feng Xiaotian dominated the Soul Battle Palace battlefield with his speed and burst damage, and the battle ended after half an hour.

• Yu Tianheng activated his Martial Soul Avatar to fight a Soul Sage-level hyena while Yu Tianxin and the others attacked the surrounding creatures.
• Tang Yu used his Martial Soul Avatar and found that the energy replenished by killing Abyss Creatures could restore its cost, prompting Tang Long to order everyone to fight without holding back.
• Tang Long led Tang Yi and Tang Ge to support a Divine Wind Team member, helping him defeat the hyenas pursuing him.
• Feng Xiaotian killed two Soul Sage-level hyenas by separating them from the pack and using his speed to strike, then attacked the remaining creatures.
• The battle ended after half an hour, and Tang Long and the others found Feng Xiaotian still darting through the hyenas and cutting them down.

Feng Xiaotian and the Divine Wind Team gained strength while hunting Abyss Creatures, and Luo Chuan secretly summoned Feng Xiaotian to find him after the competition. Elsewhere, Wu Nian sensed a massive threat approaching, called for reinforcements, and Huo Wu’s group rushed toward the distress signal.

• Feng Xiaotian and the Divine Wind Team defeated a Hyena Army, and Feng Xiaotian reached level eighty while a teammate reached level sixty-nine.
• Huo Wushuang urged the team to rest and digest the spiritual energy they had gained from battle.
• Luo Chuan’s voice told Feng Xiaotian to find him after the competition, and the Divine Wind Team continued hunting smaller groups of Abyss Creatures.
• Wu Nian sensed a powerful force approaching the Heavenly Soldier Team, Beast Team, and Profound Nether Team, so he sounded a flute and sent up nine flashes to call for help.
• Huo Wu and Oscar’s group detected the signal and set out to help, while Bai Chenxiang flew ahead to scout the danger.

Huo Wu and Ma Hongjun rushed toward the rescue signal as Zhu Zhuqing and her companions set out from another direction. Xu Lei, Wu Nian, and the Beast Team fought a mixed Abyss force, but their line broke and their fighters began to fall as a Titled Minotaur blocked the black-and-white bear.

• Ma Hongjun carried Huo Wu toward the rescue signal, while Zhu Zhuqing left ahead of Xue Wu and the others, who soon followed.
• Xu Lei and the combined teams activated Luo Chuan’s Trump Cards, and Xu Ke and A Duo used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to repel the Black Bees.
• Wu Nian’s flute drove the Black Bees into attacking one another, while Blood Drink cut down a Soul Emperor Minotaur.
• The Scythe Army and Sky Ox Army charged and broke through the defenders’ line, and Tie Sheng was gravely wounded after killing a Soul Douluo-level Minotaur.
• Hu Zi was injured and a Heavenly Soldier Team member was beheaded, while a Titled Minotaur confronted the black-and-white bear and Blood Drink flew into a rage.

The three teams struggled against overwhelming Abyss forces as casualties mounted and Blood Drink prepared to self-destruct. Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang arrived, killed the Titled creatures, and turned the battle around while reinforcements were still on their way.

• The Profound Nether Team and the other teams suffered casualties as they fought thousands of Abyss Creatures, while Black and White Da Xiong were pinned down by a Titled Minotaur.
• A Heavenly Soldier Team member detonated his Soul Power in the Minotaur Army, and Wu Nian fought a Titled Scythe Monster while Blood Drink was cornered by a Titled Black Bee and another Scythe Monster.
• Blood Drink was wounded and began igniting his Soul Power to self-destruct, but Zhu Zhuqing suppressed it as Bai Chenxiang killed the Black Bee threatening him.
• Zhu Zhuqing slaughtered all the Titled creatures on the battlefield, while Bai Chenxiang treated Blood Drink's wound and cut down the surrounding Abyss Creatures.
• Bai Chenxiang told Blood Drink that reinforcements would arrive soon and revealed that she was at Level seventy-one.

Zhu Zhuqing rescued Blood Drink and eliminated the strongest Abyss Creatures, then left the remaining battle to the wounded teams. Reinforcements led by Ma Hongjun and Huo Wu turned the fight into a victory, though four allies died, and the exhausted survivors found no bodies left behind.

• Bai Chenxiang rescued Blood Drink and guarded him until Zhu Zhuqing arrived, suppressed his self-destruction, and killed the Titled-rank Abyss Creatures and other powerful enemies.
• Zhu Zhuqing gave Wu Nian and Blood Drink Healing Pills, then departed while Bai Chenxiang rallied the survivors into a defensive circle.
• Ma Hongjun and Huo Wu arrived and burned through the Black Bees, while Ma Hongjun killed the Minotaurs threatening Xu Ke's group.
• Oscar, Yang Ke, Tai Long, Niu Mang, Ye Lingling, and the Blazing Academy members joined the fight, helping the teams cut through the Abyss Creature army and heal the wounded.
• After an hour, the survivors killed the final Black Bee; Ye Lingling mourned four fallen allies, and Wu Nian found that the Abyss Creatures had devoured their bodies.

Wu Nian mourned the losses from a costly victory, while Oscar explained why Luo Chuan had not intervened. The Abyssal Sage King confronted Luo Chuan over Zhu Zhuqing’s presence on the battlefield and demanded a God-level battlefield, leaving Luo Chuan to decide whether to accept the escalation.

• Wu Nian grieved for his fallen team member and blamed Luo Chuan for watching the battle without stopping the deaths.
• Oscar told Wu Nian that Luo Chuan was constrained by the Abyssal Sage King and the danger that destroying the Abyss could pose to Douluo Continent.
• Ma Hongjun and Huo Wu recovered from battle, but the Abyssal Sage King’s pressure injured Huo Wu before Luo Chuan blocked it.
• The Abyssal Sage King tried to seize Zhu Zhuqing, and Luo Chuan threatened him with a killing strike until he withdrew his hand.
• Luo Chuan argued that Zhu Zhuqing’s cultivation remained below the level ninety-five restriction despite her god-level combat strength.
• The Abyssal Sage King demanded that Luo Chuan lift the restriction or open a God-level Battlefield.

Luo Chuan and the Abyssal Sage King negotiated new rules for the war after the Fire Dragon King revealed his Half-step God King strength. They agreed to divide the fighting into three battlefields and began creating them in the void.

• The Fire Dragon King volunteered for a God-level Battlefield, prompting the Abyssal Sage King to yield and negotiate.
• Luo Chuan proposed three separate battlefields divided by level ninety and level seventy, and bargained over how many prodigies could be excluded.
• Luo Chuan and the Abyssal Sage King settled on six excluded prodigies and agreed to the three battlefield divisions.
• The Abyssal Sage King identified Qian Renxue as a Level One inheritor and named six women in the Extreme North for exclusion.
• The Abyssal Sage King left to create the battlefields, and Luo Chuan tore open the void as storms erupted from the rift.

Luo Chuan and the Abyssal Sage King created three battlefields and began a war between Douluo Continent and the Abyss, while the Elite Competition continued amid heavy casualties. After seven days, Luo Chuan asked the surviving contestants if they regretted fighting, then began rewarding them and restoring Nan Li’s severed arm.

• Luo Chuan and the Abyssal Sage King built three battlefields, sorted the combatants by level, and sent the Abyss Creatures across the borders to attack.
• Douluo’s forces fought back with Soul Tools, Ma Hongjun and Huo Wu became Avatars of the Fire God, Tang San hunted through the forest, and Poison Douluo and other powerful fighters slaughtered Abyss Creatures.
• The Abyssal Sage King withdrew, while the war continued for seven days until the current round of the Elite Competition ended with severe casualties across most teams.
• Luo Chuan asked the contestants whether they regretted fighting, and Nan Li of Southern Team declared that he had no regrets despite losing all his teammates.
• Luo Chuan began rewarding the elite Soul Masters and restored Nan Li’s severed left arm.

After the Elite Competition ended, Luo Chuan urged the young talents to prepare for the Abyss war, and the empires, Spirit Hall, Soul Masters, and Soul Beasts began mobilizing. At the sea, Luo Chuan and Gu Yuena met the Ice Dragon King and his gathered legion, where Gu Yuena asked why Luo Chuan had sent him despite his own greater influence over Sea Soul Beasts.

• Luo Chuan distributed the competition rewards and urged the young talents to strengthen themselves for the coming war against the Abyss.
• Ning Fengzhi directed volunteers to travel to the Extreme North and told civilians they could donate supplies for military merit.
• The Star Luo Empire and Spirit Hall assembled Soul Master forces as volunteers flocked to join the war.
• The Ice Dragon King gathered ten powerful Sea Soul Beasts, including the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and his wife, into a legion.
• Luo Chuan and Gu Yuena appeared before the Sea Soul Beast legion, and Luo Chuan's Progenitor Dragon bloodline quieted the gathered beasts.
• Gu Yuena asked Luo Chuan why he had sent the Ice Dragon King when his own bloodline held greater sway over Sea Soul Beasts.

Luo Chuan prepared for the Abyssal Sage King’s possible trump card while expanding Douluo Continent’s forces and waiting for a chance to grow stronger. Half a year later, the war remained favorable on two fronts but deadlocked among the strongest, while the new Heavenly Ranking brought Luo Chuan a flood of rewards.

• Gu Yuena warned Luo Chuan that the Abyssal Sage King might possess a trump card against God King-level opponents, and Luo Chuan said he was waiting for the Sage King to advance or for himself to grow stronger.
• Luo Chuan set up teleportation arrays and ordered the Ice Dragon King and Shui Binger’s group to transport Sea Soul Beasts to the three battlefields.
• Half a year passed, and the Golden Ranking listed soul beasts, including Gu Yuena, Di Tian, and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
• Luo Chuan had Zhu Zhuqing and the others publicly display their contracted divine beasts, earning rewards from the Heavenly Ranking despite the beasts’ absence from its list.
• Zhu Zhuqing advanced to Level One God, her contracted divine beast reached Level Two God, and the other women sought similar benefits from Luo Chuan’s treasures.
• Douluo Continent maintained advantages on the battlefields below rank seventy, while the rank ninety battle remained deadlocked and some Sea Soul Beasts grew from one hundred thousand to five hundred thousand years of cultivation.

Ma Hongjun battled a group of Abyss Creatures on the level-ninety battlefield while Oscar and the Firebird guarded against escapees. Just as Ma Hongjun nearly killed the strongest enemy, Tang San stole the kill, and Ma Hongjun recognized how much Tang San had gained by suppressing his cultivation.

• Ma Hongjun fought more than a dozen Abyss Creatures, including a level-ninety-seven Scythe Monster, while Oscar watched and prepared to stop any that fled.
• The three-hundred-thousand-year Firebird arrived and discussed fire control and the Contract of Life with Oscar as Ma Hongjun gained the upper hand.
• Oscar struck when the Abyss Creatures tried to escape, and Ma Hongjun used Magma, Explosive Strike to kill several before pursuing their strongest enemy.
• Tang San descended with his Clear Sky Hammer and killed the nearly defeated level-ninety-seven Abyss Creature before Ma Hongjun could finish it.
• Ma Hongjun glared at Tang San and saw his nine half-gold, half-crimson soul rings, recognizing that Tang San had reached level ninety through deliberate self-suppression.

Tang San spent most of his military merit on the Immortal Spirit Art, while Ma Hongjun mocked the widening gap between their strength. As the Abyss war continued, Tang Hao suppressed his impending breakthrough so he could keep fighting on the level ninety battlefield.

• Tang San exchanged ninety percent of his half-year military merit for the first volume of the Immortal Spirit Art after finding soul bones too expensive.
• Ma Hongjun warned Tang San that Luo Shen Hall techniques could cause cultivation deviation, then chose not to fight him and offered a level ninety-seven Abyss Creature as a reward for his service.
• Oscar explained to Firebird that soul beasts lacked suitable cultivation techniques but received more feedback for killing Abyss Creatures than humans did.
• Tang San left resentful, convinced Luo Chuan had unfairly favored Ma Hongjun and taken Xiao Wu from him.
• Poison Douluo and Tang Hao killed two level ninety-nine Abyss Creatures, and Tang Hao suppressed his breakthrough to remain on the level ninety battlefield.

The Abyssal Sage King explained why he was delaying an all-out invasion of the Douluo Continent: Luo Chuan may have touched the realm beyond God Kings, while the Sage King planned to break through before devouring the continent’s Source Power. He promised the Snake Queen and Bee Queen Abyss Plane Source Power to help them reach the God King realm.

• The Snake Queen urged the Abyssal Sage King to attack the Douluo Continent with the full force of the Abyss army, but he warned that Luo Chuan’s strength was difficult to gauge.
• The Bee Queen suggested that a mysterious power had severed the God Realm’s connection to the Douluo Continent and might have granted the continent unexpected opportunities.
• The Abyssal Sage King revealed that he had devoured the Plane Spirit of a shattered plane, which had raised him to the God King realm and transformed the Abyss Plane into a medium-level plane.
• The Abyssal Sage King said he intended to wait until he broke through beyond the God King realm before taking the Douluo Continent’s Source Power, and that the queens should reach the God King realm to deter Luo Chuan.
• The Abyssal Sage King promised to infuse the Snake Queen and Bee Queen with Abyss Plane Source Power, despite knowing that the shortcut would weaken their foundations.

Luo Chuan explained to Qian Renxue that the Abyssal Sage King was using scattered attacks to buy time to reach a realm above God King, and revealed his own progress in the Dao Palace Secret Realm. Meanwhile, Gu Yuena felt sensations through their contract, and Di Tian delivered captured Evil Soul Masters to the Extreme North.

• Qian Renxue questioned Luo Chuan about the Abyss Plane’s scattered attacks, and he explained that Abyss Creatures contained far less life origin than Douluo’s warriors, making their apparent losses less severe.
• Luo Chuan said the Abyssal Sage King was likely trying to break through to a realm above God King while keeping him occupied, and identified that realm with the Dao Palace Secret Realm.
• Luo Chuan told Qian Renxue that he had opened three Dao Palaces, then continued their intimate encounter.
• Gu Yuena felt sensations through her contract with Luo Chuan, cursed him for doing it on purpose, and tore open space after trying to block the sensations.
• Di Tian brought several hundred sealed Evil Soul Masters, including two at the limit, to the Extreme North, where Jing Hongchen arranged for them to be confined or used as cannon fodder.

After three years of war against the Abyss Plane, Douluo Continent’s fighters had grown stronger, and Luo Chuan decided it was time to end the conflict. As a new God-level Combat Power Ranking appeared and the system prepared to battle Heavenly Dao, Luo Chuan left the story poised to act while still holding back his own breakthrough to protect the continent.

• A new Douluo God-level Combat Power Ranking appeared, and the system announced that it would fight Heavenly Dao in a decisive battle.
• Over three years, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and the Seven Little Generals rose to divine strength, while Gu Yuena, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Zhu Zhuqing advanced their cultivation.
• The Abyssal Sage King remained in seclusion as the Snake Queen and Bee Queen directed the Abyss Plane’s war effort.
• Soul Masters and Soul Beasts fought together across a devastated continent, aided by Soul Tools, mechas, and contracts formed through Luo Shen Hall.
• Luo Chuan told Yun Yun that the war had lasted three years and said it was time to end it, while explaining that he could not risk breaking through on Douluo Continent.
• Yun Yun reasoned that Douluo Continent’s God Kings were roughly equivalent to peak Dou Huang powerhouses, with those beyond God Kings comparable to Dou Zongs.

After the Heavenly Dao retreated, Luo Chuan received a way to reach the Dou Qi Continent and prepared to leave Douluo to break through. He entered the Four Extremes Secret Realm in a remote asteroid field as a massive Heavenly Tribulation gathered overhead.

• The system announced Luo Chuan had completed his mission and rewarded him with cultivation techniques, treasures, and a Plane Gate before assigning him a mission to obtain the Dou Qi Continent's Plane Spirit.
• Luo Chuan told Yun Yun he could travel to the Dou Qi Continent, but she warned him about its dangers and the trouble their companions might attract there.
• Luo Chuan ordered the low-level battlefield closed and the God-level Battlefield opened, then left Douluo Star to break through in the depths of space.
• Luo Chuan loosened his cultivation suppression in an asteroid field and advanced from the Dao Palace Secret Realm toward the Four Extremes Secret Realm.
• A vast five-colored Heavenly Tribulation formed above Luo Chuan, and Shui Binger, Gu Yuena, and Zhu Zhuqing watched with concern from Luo Shen Hall.
