Chapter Summaries

Dai Yichen speculated that Tang San’s Innate Soul Power was lower than his Martial Souls’ potential suggested because his childhood malnutrition and possible internal injuries had weakened him. Bibi Dong and the others questioned the theory, while Bibi Dong searched her knowledge for evidence and found none.

• Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue recognized the Asura God King’s power and set aside their plans to force Tang San to reveal his cultivation technique.
• Dai Yichen argued that Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer should have limited his natural Soul Power potential, yet his slow cultivation suggested his innate level was lower than expected.
• Dai Yichen proposed that Tang San’s impoverished, malnourished childhood and possible internal injuries had reduced his Innate Soul Power.
• Bibi Dong considered the idea but could find no supporting evidence in the knowledge available to her.
• Dai Yichen cited Huo Yuhao’s level-one Innate Soul Power despite his White Tiger lineage, attributing it to congenital weakness and malnutrition.

Dai Yichen planned to use his position as a prince to reform the Star Luo Empire and support civilian soul masters. At the Zhu Family, Zhu Ming revealed that Whale Rubber could strengthen physiques and offered some to his daughters, especially the unawakened Zhu Zhuqing.

• Dai Yichen considered testing whether nutrition affected Innate Soul Power and planned to provide for infants in civilian villages.
• Dai Yichen formed a goal to have Dai Yutian reform the empire’s treatment of civilian soul masters after he defeated Dai Weisi.
• Zhu Ming returned home and learned that Zhu Zhuyun had gone to wake Zhu Zhuqing, who had not yet come out.
• Zhu Ming told Zhu Zhuyun that the imperial family and Zhu Family had obtained Whale Rubber after Dai Yichen’s Martial Soul Awakening revealed its physique-enhancing effects.
• Zhu Ming explained that the Zhu sisters could absorb suitable Whale Rubber, and that Zhu Zhuqing could especially benefit before her Martial Soul Awakening.

Zhu Ming arranged for Zhu Zhuyun to use Whale Rubber and take her third soul ring, while trying to conceal why his attitude had changed. The diary then recounted how Tang Hao suspected Tang San was not his son after seeing his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, only to embrace him when he revealed the Clear Sky Hammer and warn him to keep it secret.

• Zhu Ming told Zhu Zhuyun to start with low-year Whale Rubber and promised to take her to obtain her third soul ring after his work was finished.
• Zhu Zhuqing revealed that Zhu Zhuyun had already reached level thirty, and Zhu Ming proposed adding thousand-year Whale Rubber to her meals while she adapted.
• Zhu Zhuyun noticed Zhu Ming's unusual behavior and suggested he should not favor one sister, so he claimed all three sisters would receive a share and hurried away.
• The diary described how Tang Hao likely noticed Tang San's unusual behavior and had initially resisted letting him undergo Martial Soul Awakening.
• Tang Hao grew cold when Tang San awakened Blue Silver Grass, suspecting he was not his son, but embraced him when he revealed the Clear Sky Hammer and told him to hide it.

Dai Yichen questioned why Tang Hao had not returned Ah Yin to the Blue Silver Holy Land and explained that the Blue Silver Emperor could draw life energy from the Blue Silver Clan. Ah Yin learned that Tang San had used Blue Silver Grass for energy and left distressed by the revelations, while the women reacted to the power and risks of the ability.

• Dai Yichen pointed out the contradiction in Tang Hao's claims about protecting Tang San with the Clear Sky Hammer while keeping it hidden, and Ah Yin remembered Tang San's awakening.
• Dai Yichen argued that Tang Hao could have returned Ah Yin to the Blue Silver Holy Land and suggested he may have wanted to delay her recovery.
• Dai Yichen explained that the Blue Silver Emperor could absorb life energy from Blue Silver Grass and Blue Silver Kings, potentially sacrificing the entire clan to regain power.
• Ah Yin frowned when she heard that Tang San had repeatedly drawn energy from Blue Silver Grass, while Xiao Wu felt envious that Ah Yin could cultivate again after sacrificing herself.

Xiao Wu and Ah Yin read Dai Yichen’s claims that Tang Hao may have hidden Ah Yin’s identity and used her sacrifice for his own gain, leaving Ah Yin shaken and unable to trust him. Qian Renxue learned Tang Hao was the one who had fatally injured her father, while Bibi Dong feared the diary might reveal more about Qian Xunji’s death.

• Xiao Wu hoped the diary’s rewards might resurrect her mother and decided she needed to get close to Dai Yichen in the Star Luo Empire.
• Ah Yin read Dai Yichen’s speculation that Tang Hao had kept her from the Blue Silver Holy Land and may have concealed his motives behind grief and devotion.
• Dai Yichen questioned how Tang Hao had defeated three powerful Titled Douluo after Ah Yin sacrificed herself and doubted Tang Hao had truly spent six years drinking and grieving.
• Ah Yin wondered whether Tang Hao had been acting and treating her as a tool, and she felt she could no longer trust humans.
• Qian Renxue realized Tang Hao had seriously injured Qian Xunji, while Bibi Dong feared Dai Yichen might reveal the truth about Qian Xunji’s death.

Dai Yichen finished his journal and began cultivating, while Ning Rongrong questioned her family about Zhao Wuji and the Clear Sky Sect’s past. She learned how Tang Hao escaped after the incident that led to the sect sealing itself off, and Chen Xin claimed he might have challenged the Clear Sky Hammer’s supremacy if he knew Ring Detonation.

• Dai Yichen completed the day’s journal entries and began cultivating to strengthen his foundation.
• Ning Rongrong joined Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, then asked about Zhao Wuji after overhearing them discuss the notices seeking his capture.
• Ning Fengzhi explained Zhao Wuji’s history and revealed that the Clear Sky Sect had sealed itself off after its master died, abandoning its four affiliated sects.
• Chen Xin told Ning Rongrong that Tang Hao had escaped using the Clear Sky Sect’s Ring Detonation and Great Sumeru Hammer techniques, and said he might have surpassed the Clear Sky Hammer if he knew Ring Detonation.
• Ning Rongrong asked Chen Xin whether Ring Detonation meant destroying one’s soul rings and whether he could use it.

Ning Rongrong learned how Ring Detonation worked and questioned why Spirit Hall had failed to save Qian Xunji. Meanwhile, Bibi Dong asked Yue Guan about immortal herbs and chose Lovesick Heartbreak Red for Xiaogang, hoping it would prove he still loved her.

• Chen Xin explained Ring Detonation’s power and the risks it posed to a soul master’s body, while Ning Rongrong questioned how Qian Xunji had died despite Spirit Hall’s experts.
• Ning Fengzhi said Qian Xunji’s death had led Spirit Hall to demand answers from the Clear Sky Sect and left Tang Hao unable to return.
• Bibi Dong worried that Xiao Wu and Qian Renxue might possess Diary Copies and that Dai Yichen could expose her past.
• Bibi Dong summoned Yue Guan and asked him what he knew about immortal herbs, so he described his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum martial soul and provided information about the herbs he knew.
• Bibi Dong selected Lovesick Heartbreak Red for Xiaogang, hoping its recognition would show that he still loved her.

Dai Yichen used the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm Catcher to obtain a million-year soul ring and began absorbing it. Meanwhile, Ah Yin received rewards for being mentioned most often in his diary and wondered whether the system was steering her.

• Dai Yichen learned the Catcher would turn Sky Dream Ice Silkworm into a soul ring and store its remaining life energy for the Life Reflection Shield.
• A beam of light made Sky Dream Ice Silkworm vanish from the Star Dou Great Forest, leaving Bear Monarch, Ten Thousand Demon King, Emerald Swan Bi Ji, and Scarlet King baffled.
• Dai Yichen received the jade-white Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and began absorbing its White-Gold Soul Ring, which would first make up for his previous foundation.
• The women with Diary Copies learned Xiao Wu and Ah Yin had them, and Ah Yin received a Fixed-Point Teleportation Talisman, a Disguise Talisman, and doubled basic cultivation talent.
• Ah Yin examined her rewards and wondered whether the system was pushing her along.

Ah Yin escaped Tang Hao by using a Disguise Talisman and teleporting to Dai Yichen, while Dai Yichen completed his first Spirit Eyes soul ring and discovered the hidden reward had brought Ah Yin to him. The next morning, Dai Yichen recorded the strange rewards in his diary, leaving the women who read it confused.

• Ah Yin chose to trust Dai Yichen, disguised a nearby Blue Silver Grass plant as herself, and teleported to Dai Yichen's side.
• Dai Yichen absorbed the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year soul ring, gained four Spirit Eyes skills, and advanced from Soul Power level fourteen to level sixteen.
• Dai Yichen opened the hidden reward and found that the system had teleported Ah Yin to him.
• Dai Yichen planted Ah Yin in a flowerpot and watered her while Ah Yin watched and felt relieved that he seemed trustworthy.
• The next morning, Dai Yichen recorded his rewards in his diary, and the women reacted with confusion.

Dai Yichen considered how to build the strength and support needed to reform the Star Luo Empire, while Ah Yin arrived at his side and began to grow closer to him. The women reacted to his new Spirit Eyes Martial Soul and Million Year Soul Ring, and Zhu Zhuyun offered to take Zhu Zhuqing to visit him.

• Dai Yichen reasoned that he would need enough power and loyal followers to reform the Star Luo Empire, and decided to raise Ah Yin by his side.
• Dai Yichen watered Ah Yin and stroked her leaves; Ah Yin wrapped her branches around his fingers, while she felt guilty about arriving with ulterior motives.
• The women were shocked that Dai Yichen had obtained Ah Yin, a Spirit Eyes Martial Soul, and a Million Year Soul Ring.
• Zhu Zhuqing asked whether Dai Yichen would visit, and Zhu Zhuyun offered to take her to him despite her not yet having awakened her Martial Soul.
• Bibi Dong wondered whether other body parts could awaken as Martial Souls, and the women questioned the existence of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Million Year Soul Beasts.

Xiao Wu recalled the terrifying beasts deep in the Star Dou Great Forest and resolved to enroll in a Soul Master Academy before pursuing her goals. At the Lake of Life, Di Tian and Bi Ji investigated Tian Meng’s disappearance while the Three-Eyed Golden Lion secretly read a diary explaining what had happened.

• Xiao Wu remembered her mother’s account of the Great Peril Land, the powerful black bear, and the Spirit Hall figure who killed her mother, then decided to focus on studying before going to Star Luo City.
• Bi Ji asked Di Tian whether anything unusual had happened after a beam of light took Tian Meng away, and questioned the Three-Eyed Golden Lion about what she had sensed.
• Di Tian said he had not detected the light and ordered Bear Monarch and the others to stay near the Lake of Life to protect the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and his lord.
• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion secretly read a diary that revealed the reason for Tian Meng’s disappearance and increased her cultivation, though she could not tell the others about it.
• The diary’s writer explained that Tian Meng gained million-year cultivation by consuming Ten Thousand Year Ice Marrow, described his pursuit of Ice Empress, and remarked that he had remained unusually weak despite his age.

Dai Yichen’s diary compared the Ice Empress with Shui Bing’er’s Ice Phoenix and revealed the Ice Empress’s future role in Huo Yuhao’s rise. The Ice Empress and several diary readers considered Ultimate Ice and the dangers of the Extremely Northern Land, while the Ice Empress decided to wait and visit the Snow Empress.

• Dai Yichen explained that Tian Meng would later offer the Ice Empress a chance at eternal life by making Huo Yuhao a god, and wondered how she compared with an Ice Phoenix at equal strength.
• The Ice Empress read her Diary Copy, learned that Tian Meng had reached a million years but had been absorbed by fierce beasts, and worried about surviving her own four-hundred-thousand-year tribulation.
• The Ice Empress decided to wait for further developments and visit the Snow Empress, whose upcoming seven-hundred-thousand-year tribulation was even more dangerous.
• Shui Bing’er read Dai Yichen’s remarks about her Ice Phoenix and wondered whether its Ice attribute could evolve toward Ultimate Ice as she grew stronger.
• Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing headed for the Star Luo Imperial Palace as the women discussed Ultimate Attributes and the powerful soul beasts of the Extremely Northern Land.

Ice Empress grew angry over Dai Yichen’s description of her and wondered whether Snow Empress had a diary copy, while Three-Eyed Golden Lion questioned the conflict between soul beasts and humans. Dai Yichen met Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun at the palace after learning Zhuqing had come to see him before his academy trip.

• Ice Empress interpreted Dai Yichen’s words as an insult and vowed to make him regret visiting the Extremely Northern Land.
• Di Tian described the dangers beyond the Star Dou Great Forest, and Bi Ji warned Three-Eyed Golden Lion that humans might hunt her for her Soul Ring and Soul Bone.
• Three-Eyed Golden Lion wondered why soul masters and soul beasts were destined to oppose each other and felt she did too little to help the forest’s soul beasts.
• Dai Yichen prepared for breakfast and his upcoming trip to Star Luo Royal Academy when he heard that Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun had arrived.
• Zhu Zhuyun said she had brought Zhu Zhuqing to see Dai Yichen before his academy departure, and Zhu Zhuqing blushed and hid behind her sister.

Dai Yichen took Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing toward the Imperial Kitchen, where they ran into Dai Mubai, who claimed Zhu Zhuqing as his fiancée and challenged Dai Yichen to a fight. Dai Yichen rejected treating Zhu Zhuqing as a wager and confronted Dai Mubai over insulting women, leaving both princes ready to battle.

• Dai Yichen invited Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing to the Imperial Kitchen for breakfast and ordered meals with Whale Rubber.
• Dai Mubai approached the group and introduced himself to Zhu Zhuqing as her future fiancé, but she rejected him and said Dai Yichen had already explained the situation.
• Dai Yichen reminded Dai Mubai that Zhu Zhuqing would choose between them and challenged his lack of cultivation progress.
• Dai Mubai proposed a match with Zhu Zhuqing as the prize, but Dai Yichen refused to treat her as an object or wager.
• After Dai Mubai called women resources for men, Zhu Zhuqing asked Dai Yichen to beat him, and Dai Yichen drew his White Tiger Psychic Lock.
• Dai Mubai activated White Tiger Possession and prepared to fight Dai Yichen.

Dai Yichen easily defeated Dai Mubai after his enhanced first soul ring and physique made him far stronger than his brother expected. Over breakfast, he told Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing that Zhuqing would choose her own future, while candidly admitting the risks of being paired with him and that he might have multiple partners.

• Dai Mubai attacked Dai Yichen with his White Tiger Protective Barrier, but Dai Yichen remained unharmed and sent him reeling.
• Dai Yichen quickly knocked Dai Mubai unconscious and left with Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing before palace guards carried Dai Mubai away.
• At breakfast, Zhu Zhuyun teased Dai Yichen about his violence and asked what he thought of Zhuqing and women.
• Dai Yichen praised Zhuqing, acknowledged his political motives for visiting the Zhu family, and said Zhuqing could decide whether to choose him.
• Dai Yichen warned Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing that he lacked the White Tiger Martial Soul Fusion Skill and might not remain devoted to one partner.

Dai Yichen spoke frankly with Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing about his feelings, then tested the Diary System’s new recording features in the Imperial Garden. Meanwhile, Dai Yutian learned that Dai Yichen had defeated Dai Mubai and considered changing the succession plans if his fourth son continued to grow stronger.

• Dai Yichen told Zhu Zhuyun that he was young and wanted to focus on cultivation before pursuing romance, while hinting that he saw her as another girl close to him.
• Zhu Zhuqing called Dai Yichen a little rogue, then left with Zhu Zhuyun without explaining what she meant.
• Dai Yichen unlocked photography and video recording through the Diary System and recorded Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun in the Imperial Garden.
• The Diary System announced that everyone with a Diary Copy would watch Dai Yichen’s videos and receive a random reward.
• Dai Yutian heard that Dai Yichen had seriously injured Dai Mubai in a fight and considered changing the succession plans if Dai Yichen defeated Dai Weisi within the next few years.

Ice Empress worried that the Diary Copy’s Soul Power rewards would force Snow Empress to face her tribulation sooner, but Snow Empress suggested they might find a way through Dai Yichen and his God Creation Plan. At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling discovered they both had Diary Copies, and Dugu Yan questioned Dugu Bo about unusual herbs.

• Ice Empress visited Snow Empress and warned that the Diary Copy’s rewards could hasten their tribulations; Snow Empress admitted she might take human form if she could not overcome her bottleneck.
• Snow Empress suggested Dai Yichen might know how to become a god, while Ice Empress complained that the Plane Rules treated soul beasts unfairly.
• Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling discovered that they both had Diary Copies and agreed to keep the discovery between them.
• Dugu Yan asked Dugu Bo whether he had found any strange, high-grade herbs, but he said he had not seen any.

Dugu Yan asked Dugu Bo whether herbs could improve a Soul Master's talent, unaware that her Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison threatened her life. At the Star Luo Imperial Palace, Dai Yichen warned Zhu Zhuyun about the throne and called Zhu Zhuqing his little sister, prompting Zhu Zhuqing to vow she would no longer call him brother.

• Dugu Yan asked Dugu Bo about herbs that could increase talent or Soul Power, but he said he knew of none.
• Dugu Bo privately worried that the poison in Dugu Yan's body would erupt as her cultivation grew, and wondered whether Sunset Forest's herbs could control it.
• Dai Yichen escorted Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing to the palace gates, warned Zhu Zhuyun to prepare for his future challenge to the throne, and urged Zhu Zhuqing to take Whale Rubber.
• Zhu Zhuqing ran back to Dai Yichen, accused him of being a bully, and declared she would no longer call him brother or be his little sister.
• Zhu Zhuqing returned to Zhu Zhuyun and vowed to train hard so Dai Yichen would regret it after her Martial Soul awakening.

Dai Yichen received the Star Observation Method and Ten Thousand Year Ice Marrow as diary rewards, while Ice Empress and Snow Empress obtained Transformation Pills from a video reward. The two soul beasts considered how the pills could let them cultivate safely in human forms, though they would still face the barrier to becoming gods at a million years.

• Dai Yichen reflected on his feelings for Zhu Zhuqing and admitted that he had initially approached her because she would grow into a beauty, though he now felt more like a protective father toward her.
• At midnight, Dai Yichen received the Star Observation Method and 1,000 points for completing his diary, and he decided the method could improve his mental energy by absorbing starlight.
• Because he had mentioned Ice Empress most often, she received Ten Thousand Year Ice Marrow and offered to share it with Snow Empress.
• A video reward gave Ice Empress and Snow Empress each a Transformation Pill that let soul beasts take human form while retaining their strength and cultivation potential.
• Snow Empress warned that the pills would not let them become gods as soul beasts after reaching a million years, but Ice Empress proposed dealing with that problem when they got there.

Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s reward strengthened the Star Dou Great Forest’s fortune, while Dai Yichen prepared to enroll at Star Luo Royal Academy amid tension with his brothers. Dai Weisi challenged Dai Yichen to a match, and Dai Yuxuan warned him that their father might hear of it.

• Snow Empress warned Ice Empress that their race’s limits made surviving million-year tribulations difficult, but said the Diary Copy might change things.
• Xiao Wu received Disguise Aura and one hundred Gold Soul Coins, which would help her conceal her soul beast aura and pay for school.
• Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s doubled effect strengthened the forest’s fortune, allowing its soul beasts to cultivate faster and improve their chances of breaking through bottlenecks.
• Dai Yuxuan thanked Dai Yichen for the Whale Rubber, which had helped him and Zhu Yu cultivate.
• Dai Weisi proposed a match with Dai Yichen after hearing he had defeated Dai Mubai, and Dai Yuxuan cautioned him about their father’s reaction.
