Chapter Summaries

Zhuge Lan proved that Chen Xin’s strongest sword attack could not pierce his defense, then helped Ning Fengzhi plan a Dance King Competition to promote the Entertainment Soul Guidance Device. The organizers set enormous prizes, and Zhuge Lan added pills that could extend contestants’ lifespans.

• Chen Xin unleashed his Ninth Soul Skill, God and Demon Dual Slash, but Zhuge Lan’s Spatial Nullification Left Leg Soul Bone absorbed the attack without harm.

Zhuge Lan took Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Ning Fengzhi to the Far North aboard his Immortal Slaughtering Sword, demonstrating its astonishing speed and explaining that a satellite device could keep them in contact. Back in Heaven Dou City, Chen Xin prepared to launch the device, Gu Rong left to cultivate, and Zhuge Lan gave Ning Fengzhi a sealed flying skill that made him uneasy.

• Zhuge Lan showed Ning Fengzhi and the others a Satellite Soul Guidance Device and explained that it could relay signals from outer space.

Ning Fengzhi learned a bizarre Ball Pig flight skill and fled before Zhuge Lan could show him more. Qian Renxue came to explain that the Tongyun Family’s hunt had nothing to do with her, then sought another inheritance skill from Zhuge Lan, who made her learning it depend on her performance.

• Ning Fengzhi crushed a Skill Stone, learned the Ball Pig’s embarrassing gas-powered flight skill, and decided never to use it unless he faced a life-or-death crisis.

• Qian Renxue asked Zhuge Lan to unlock another inheritance skill, but Zhuge Lan reminded her of their weekly date agreement and said her performance would determine whether she could learn sooner.

Qian Renxue agreed to judge Zhuge Lan’s Dance King Competition in exchange for an Inheritance Soul Skill, then accidentally caused his already-damaged cabin to collapse.

He planned to use them to spread the story of his divine role so people might help with his future pranks.

• Zhuge Lan brought Flender and Chen Xin to the Far North, where Flender struggled to recover from the speed of the flight.

• Zhuge Lan admitted that he enjoyed pranking people and intended to use Flender and Chen Xin to spread the word about his God position.

Zhuge Lan began sweeping the Far North to alter Soul Beasts’ fates, using his skills to inflict childbirth and harvest Emotional Value. The sweep reached the inner circle, where the first exhausted, furious Soul Beast emerged from beneath the ice.

• Zhuge Lan told Chen Xin and Flender that his divine trial required him to change other beings’ fates ten billion times, and they agreed to help him target the Far North’s Soul Beasts.

He withheld the details and defended himself from the Ice Empress’s attacks, leaving her convinced he was scheming against her.

• The Ice Empress accused Zhuge Lan of forcing Soul Beasts to lay eggs and stealing their offspring, then froze Flender, whom Zhuge Lan sent somewhere safe with the Immortal Slaughtering Sword.

• The Snow Empress asked Zhuge Lan to prove his claim, and he summoned a divine phantom that intimidated both Empresses before it warned him against summoning it without danger.
• Zhuge Lan claimed the phantom was a divine consciousness from his ancestor and said his ancestor had sent him information about the Ice God, convincing the Empresses he had divine connections.
• The Snow Empress eagerly asked what had happened to the Ice God, but Zhuge Lan withheld the information; the Ice Empress’s claw and icy breath were neutralized by his Soul Bone Skill.
• The Ice Empress noticed the skill’s protection came from Zhuge Lan’s left foot and accused him of cunningly scheming against her.

Zhuge Lan told Snow Empress and Ice Empress the truth about Ice God's death and revealed the Transformation Technique as a way for Soul Beasts to become human without losing their cultivation. Both Empresses acknowledged him as their master and received the complete technique, leaving the Titan Snow Demon King stunned when he saw them kneel.

• Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong speculated about why Zhuge Lan held back his level, and Liu Erlong struggled to accept how casually they discussed his extraordinary abilities.
• Liu Erlong said the women should clarify their relationships, called herself Er Long-jie, and said she only wanted to become stronger; Ning Rongrong reassured her that they did not compete for favor.

• Zhuge Lan used the system to reclaim the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, receiving 19.71 million Emotional Value.

Liu Erlong’s Fire Dragon Soul evolved into an Ice Flame Soul, and Zhuge Lan convinced her that the change had been his plan.

• The Titan Snow Demon King chose the second option before Zhuge Lan had explained it, believing it could ascend with Liu Erlong when she became a god.

Zhuge Lan exchanged Xiaobai and the Titan Snow Demon King's cultivation, then altered the Titan Snow Demon King's sacrifice to a Blood Sacrifice and formed a Soul Spirit contract with Liu Erlong. The Titan Snow Demon King exploded as the process reached its climax.

• Zhuge Lan used Level Replacement to reduce Xiaobai's cultivation to 190,000 years and raise the Titan Snow Demon King's to 290,000 years.

After the Titan Snow Demon King’s defeat, Zhuge Lan gave its Ice God bloodline to Xiaobai, then returned to Blue Tyrant Academy with him, Snow Empress, and Ice Empress. Flender recruited the academy members for the Dance King Competition, and they balked when he announced their embarrassing routines would be broadcast throughout Heaven Dou City.

• Zhuge Lan feinted the countdown and tossed the sheets toward the ground, tricking Yu Feng and Huo Wu’s group into lunging at empty air.
• Ye Lingling and Yu Feng grabbed sheets before Huo Wu and the others, and the contestants unfolded their papers to see their poses.
