Chapter Summaries

Ning Fengzhi, Bone Douluo, and Sword Douluo discussed Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan preparing for the Soul Master Competition, along with Dugu Yan’s dangerous poison and Ning Tian’s relationship with a fellow pavilion member. Ning Fengzhi decided to let Rongrong handle the sect’s concerns when she returned and revealed he planned to attend an auction in Heaven Dou Imperial Capital.

• Ning Fengzhi and the two elders wondered why Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan were preparing for the Soul Master Competition despite not knowing its prizes.
• Ning Fengzhi recalled that Dugu Yan’s poison had once gone out of control after she obtained her Sixth Soul Ring, requiring several titled douluo to suppress it.
• The three discussed the continent’s growing turmoil and the possibility of a god-level being appearing within a few decades.
• Ning Fengzhi worried that Ning Tian’s closeness to Ye Renxin’s granddaughter might cause conflict among the sect’s elders, but decided to let events unfold.
• Ning Fengzhi defended Ning Tian’s Level 7 Ranged Soul Guidance Device as useful protection for Support Spirit Masters and said the sect would eventually be handed to Rongrong.
• Ning Fengzhi said he would attend an auction in Heaven Dou Imperial Capital, prompting Sword Douluo to tease him about buying catwomen again.

Ning Rongrong returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and learned about the recent upheavals involving Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Dugu Yan’s dangerous poison. After Ning Fengzhi and the two elders left to investigate Heaven Dou, Rongrong was left in charge of the sect and planned to check on Dugu Yan.

• Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong detected Ning Rongrong’s concealed return, and she explained that the Angel Holy Sword had become hers after its mark was erased.
• Ning Fengzhi told Ning Rongrong about Bibi Dong’s changed temperament, Qian Renxue’s plans, the Clear Sky Sect’s return, and Tang Chen’s confrontation with Qian Daoliu.
• Ning Rongrong learned that Dugu Yan’s Misfortune Poison had become more dangerous and insisted that suppressing her use of it would only delay another outbreak.
• Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo left for Heaven Dou to investigate Xue Qinghe, placing Ning Rongrong in charge of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
• Ning Rongrong decided to visit Dugu Yan and then look over the work Ning Fengzhi had left behind.

Ning Rongrong arrived at Dugu Yan’s residence and watched Dugu Yan spar with Shui Bing’er, Ye Lingling, and Ning Tian, assessing their strength and noticing Dugu Yan’s troubled state. As Ye Lingling’s healing countered Dugu Yan’s poison, Ning Tian revealed a snow-white Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, leaving the nature of her surprise unresolved.

• Ning Rongrong followed Ning Fengzhi’s directions to Dugu Yan’s residence and sensed Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin nearby.
• Ning Rongrong observed Dugu Yan fighting Shui Bing’er, Ye Lingling, and Ning Tian, and estimated their Soul Power levels.
• Ning Rongrong sensed that Dugu Yan was burdened by self-blame, confusion, helplessness, and bloodlust.
• Ye Lingling used Nine Heart Begonia’s healing power to counter the corrosive Poison Mist, allowing Shui Bing’er to attack Dugu Yan.
• Shui Bing’er called on Ning Tian to show her promised surprise, and Ning Tian’s Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda transformed into a snow-white version.

Ning Tian tested a new Soul Tool against Dugu Yan, whose emotions surged under its blinding light and Shui Bing’er's ice attack. Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin sensed Dugu Yan losing control and rushed to protect everyone as the chapter ended.

• Ning Rongrong overheard Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin discuss Ning Tian and Ye Lingling, the sect’s succession, and Ning Yun’s departure for Vast Sea City.
• Ning Tian used his pagoda-like Soul Tool to launch four spheres of light at Dugu Yan, but the effort left him exhausted.
• Dugu Yan restrained the spheres with poison, but their purifying light blinded her and intensified her suppressed emotions.
• Shui Bing'er froze Dugu Yan’s feet and attacked with Extreme Ice Prison as Dugu Yan’s poison mist cleared.
• Dugu Bo sensed a sinister aura, reached level 94, and threw Shui Bing'er and the others to Ye Renxin for protection.
• Ye Renxin summoned the Nine Heart Begonia around Dugu Yan while Dugu Bo urged her to calm down.

Dugu Yan lost control of her poison at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Ning Fengzhi and the elders watched from a distance while Ning Rongrong prepared to intervene. Ning Rongrong appeared with the Glazed Tile Holy Sword and dispersed the Poison Mist, revealing Dugu Yan still struggling against the poison.

• Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo watched Dugu Yan's poison spread and worried that she might have to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
• Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin contained the Poison Mist while Ning Tian and the others prepared to fly for help.
• Ning Rongrong revealed herself and told the others she would handle the crisis herself.
• Ning Rongrong summoned the Glazed Tile Holy Sword, which rapidly purified the Poison Mist and weakened Dugu Bo's poison.
• The dispersing mist revealed Dugu Yan on the ground, pleading with herself not to hurt everyone.

Ning Rongrong suppressed Dugu Yan’s Calamity Poison Body and identified ways to address the fear and helplessness behind its loss of control. She planned to take Dugu Yan to Heaven Dou City for help, while Tang San left Slaughter City to go there as well.

• Ning Rongrong confronted Dugu Yan about her regret and fear, then sealed the poison and knocked her unconscious.
• Ning Rongrong told Dugu Bo that Dugu Yan’s condition was serious and might stem from trauma over her parents’ deaths.
• Ning Rongrong said they needed the Huo Family’s Seven-Colored Flame Stone and suggested using Tang Yuehua’s Noble Circle to ease Dugu Yan’s helplessness.
• Ning Rongrong planned to travel to Heaven Dou City with Ning Fengzhi and asked him to handle Xue Qinghe.
• Tang Chen praised Tang San and sent him to Heaven Dou City, where Tang San departed after thanking his great-grandfather.

Ning Rongrong outlined a plan to treat Dugu Yan by balancing the forces in her Martial Soul, but the treatment required the Seven-Colored Flame Stone and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The group began preparing the remedy while Ning Rongrong restored the well, leaving it stable but still awaiting further steps for Dugu Yan’s recovery.

• Ning Rongrong told Dugu Bo she planned to use the Angel Holy Sword to inscribe an array on Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul and needed the Seven-Colored Flame Stone to stabilize the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Ning Rongrong gave Ye Renxin a Phoenix Tail Crested Chicken Herb to trade to the Huo Family for the Seven-Colored Flame Stone, and Ye Renxin agreed to travel to Four Elements City.
• Ning Rongrong decided to take Dugu Yan to Heaven Dou City to seek help from Tang Yuehua, while Dugu Bo stayed at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to help with the well and guard the sect.
• Ning Rongrong brought the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well into a remote spot within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and explained that the Cold Spring held the sealed soul energy of a First Level God.
• Ning Rongrong threw the Angel Holy Sword into the Flame Spring, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well settled into a calm, stable state.

Ning Rongrong explained why the Angel Holy Sword could not serve as the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well’s Array Eye and left Dugu Bo to guard the site. She traveled to Heaven Dou City with Dugu Yan and Ning Fengzhi, while a purple-haired woman read Ning Fengzhi’s letter beside Xue Qinghe at the imperial palace.

• Ning Rongrong told Dugu Bo that the Angel Holy Sword was too unstable to serve as the Array Eye, and Dugu Bo agreed to stay at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Dugu Yan woke after several days and set out for Heaven Dou City with Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengzhi.
• Dugu Yan worried about reaching Rank 67, so Ning Rongrong teased her by confessing that she liked her and helped ease her fears about her poison.
• Ning Rongrong used True Qi to fix her hair and heat tea, then revealed she had sterilized the cup after Dugu Yan drank from it.
• At the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, a purple-haired woman read Ning Fengzhi’s letter beside Xue Qinghe and remarked on his teacher’s concern.

Qian Renxue acknowledged that Spirit Hall had to cooperate with the Star Dou Great Forest and decided to visit it with Zi Ji once matters were settled. Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong’s group arrived in Heaven Dou City, where Zi Ji escorted them to the imperial palace to meet Xue Qinghe.

• Qian Renxue asked Zi Ji whether Qian Daoliu could become a god, and Zi Ji said a God Servant might do so if a god had fallen and the servant relinquished the position.
• Qian Renxue agreed to go to the Star Dou Great Forest with Zi Ji after resolving matters and said Qian Daoliu would likely come too.
• Zi Ji met Ning Fengzhi’s group at the city gates and escorted them to the imperial palace with Xue Qinghe’s token.
• Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo estimated Zi Ji’s strength at roughly the level of a level 96 Titled Douluo.
• Xue Qinghe welcomed Ning Fengzhi as his teacher, and Ning Fengzhi said he had come seeking Xue Qinghe’s help.

After learning that Zi Ji might signal an alliance between Spirit Hall and the Star Dou Great Forest, Ning Rongrong feared they planned to destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Clear Sky Sect at the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition. Her family and friends reassured her, and she resolved to use the God Realm’s attention on the Silver Dragon King as leverage if necessary.

• After leaving the imperial palace, Ning Fengzhi asked Ning Rongrong why she had been quiet, and she warned that Zi Ji was a nearly three-hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast with strength comparable to a level 96 Titled Douluo.
• Ning Rongrong explained that Zi Ji’s presence in Qian Renxue’s palace suggested Qian Daoliu and the Star Dou Great Forest might have reached an agreement.
• Ning Rongrong warned that an alliance could give Spirit Hall and the Star Dou Great Forest at least six Limit Douluo and might let them target the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Clear Sky Sect at the competition.
• Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Dugu Yan encouraged Ning Rongrong, with Bone Douluo promising to work toward level 98 and Dugu Yan vowing to master her Calamity Poison Body.
• After calming down, Ning Rongrong reasoned that the God Realm’s scrutiny might prevent the alliance from acting openly, and she considered exposing the alliance and Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena to the God Realm.

Ning Fengzhi brought Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, and others to Moonlight Pavilion to ask Tang Yuehua to help Dugu Yan, while Tang Yuehua tested the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's stance on Xue Qinghe and Spirit Hall. Tang Yuehua agreed to teach Dugu Yan at the sect for two months, and days after she left, a murderous young man arrived in Heaven Dou City and headed for Moonlight Pavilion.

• Ning Fengzhi and his group met Xue Ke and Tang Yuehua at Moonlight Pavilion to discuss Dugu Yan's condition.
• Tang Yuehua admitted she was unsure she could help Dugu Yan, and Ning Fengzhi promised her compensation regardless of the outcome.
• Tang Yuehua questioned Ning Fengzhi about Xue Qinghe's closeness to Spirit Hall, and he said the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would remain neutral.
• Ning Fengzhi and Tang Yuehua signed an agreement for her to teach Dugu Yan at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for two months in exchange for money and high-grade pills.
• After Tang Yuehua departed, a handsome, powerfully built youth entered Heaven Dou City and headed toward Moonlight Pavilion.

Ning Rongrong and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect learned that a Soul King called Born Evil Tang Yin had destroyed Moonlight Pavilion and escaped Zi Ji. Tang Yuehua was told of the attack and vowed to find Tang Yin.

• Bone Douluo brought Tang Yuehua back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, where she instructed Dugu Yan for over a month while Ning Rongrong watched over them.
• Ye Renxin retrieved the Seven-Colored Flame Stone and stabilized the sect’s new Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Ning Fengzhi gave Ning Rongrong a letter from Qian Renxue reporting that a Soul King had destroyed Moonlight Pavilion, injured Xue Ke, and escaped from Zi Ji.
• Ning Rongrong decided to tell Tang Yuehua the truth and send her back, while Ning Fengzhi prepared the payment promised in their agreement.
• Tang Yuehua read the letter, learned Moonlight Pavilion had been destroyed, and cursed Born Evil Tang Yin as she vowed to find him.

After Tang Yin destroyed Moonlight Pavilion, Tang Yuehua grieved for her school and hurried to return to Heaven Dou City to learn what had happened to Xue Ke. Ning Rongrong suspected Tang Yin had ties to the Clear Sky Sect, but the chapter left his identity unconfirmed.

• Tang Yuehua apologized for losing control and said she could not continue teaching Dugu Yan while she was too distressed to guide her properly.
• Tang Yuehua said she wanted to return to Heaven Dou City to check on Xue Ke, and Ning Fengzhi promised to escort her safely and gave her payment and pills.
• Ning Fengzhi said they needed an hour to arrange the trip and bring Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin to help with Xue Ke’s condition.
• Ning Fengzhi asked Ning Rongrong whether she had clues about Tang Yin, and she described the enemy’s blood-draining abilities and evil domain.
• Ning Rongrong said Tang Yin’s domain was likely Divine Slaughter’s Domain from Slaughter City, which seemed to implicate the Clear Sky Sect.

Ning Fengzhi’s group departed for Heaven Dou City while Xue Qinghe and Zi Ji discussed Xue Ke’s mysterious affliction and the danger posed by Tang Yin. The Ossified Divine Dragon arrived at the imperial palace, where Xue Qinghe hoped Ning Fengzhi could save Xue Ke.

• Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo, and Ye Renxin joined Ning Fengzhi, who shared Ning Rongrong’s suspicion about the Clear Sky Sect and warned them not to mention it to Tang Yuehua.
• Ning Fengzhi offered to take Tang Yuehua to Heaven Dou City, and Bone Douluo used his teleportation skills to carry everyone there on the Ossified Divine Dragon.
• Xue Qinghe learned from Zi Ji that Xue Ke could not be awakened because sinister energy had invaded her body, though a thirty-thousand-year Sacred Defense Soul Bone had protected her.
• Zi Ji described Tang Yin’s unusual Blue Silver Grass-like Martial Soul, possible Twin Martial Souls, and a domain she could not identify, then urged stronger protection for Xue Qinghe.
• Zi Ji explained that Ten Thousand Demons King was a five-hundred-and-twenty-thousand-year soul beast who could guard Xue Qinghe, as she questioned whether Spirit Hall’s alliance with the Star Dou Great Forest was safe.
• The Ossified Divine Dragon appeared outside Heaven Dou City and vanished after bringing Ning Fengzhi’s party, and Xue Qinghe hoped her teacher could help Xue Ke.

Ning Fengzhi and the others investigated Moonlight Pavilion’s destruction and examined the unconscious Xue Ke, but none of them could treat the deadly Baleful Aura inside her. Xue Qinghe was left searching for a way to save her, while Tang Yuehua stayed in the palace to care for her.

• Ning Fengzhi’s group entered the cordoned-off district and learned that Xue Ke was the only person from Moonlight Pavilion who had survived the attack.
• Tang Yuehua asked Ning Fengzhi to take her to the palace so she could see Xue Ke, and Xue Qinghe received them there.
• Ning Fengzhi, Dugu Bo, and Ye Renxin examined Xue Ke but could not remove the strange energy damaging her internal organs.
• Ning Rongrong identified the energy as Baleful Aura mixed with resentment and suggested that a Martial Soul mutation might cleanse it, though she could not confirm the method would work.
• Tang Yuehua asked to remain in the palace to care for Xue Ke, and Xue Qinghe agreed.

Ning Fengzhi’s group identified the baleful aura in Xue Ke as likely coming from Divine Slaughter’s Domain before Tang Chen confronted Xue Qinghe over the attack on his great-grandson, Tang San. Zi Ji revealed that Tang San had destroyed Moonlight Pavilion and endangered Xue Ke, leaving Tang Chen stunned as Ning Fengzhi and the others arrived to challenge his presence in the palace.

• Ning Rongrong told Ning Fengzhi and the others that Xue Ke’s baleful aura likely came from Divine Slaughter’s Domain, and the group turned to Dugu Yan’s condition.
• Tang Chen appeared over Heaven Dou City and demanded that Xue Qinghe come out, accusing him of sending a Titled Douluo after Tang San.
• Xue Qinghe denied knowing what Tang Chen meant, while Tang Chen identified Tang Yin as his great-grandson Tang San and said he had come to defend a junior.
• Zi Ji told Tang Chen that Tang San had smashed Moonlight Pavilion, killing nobles and nearly killing Princess Xue Ke, Tang Yuehua’s disciple.
• Tang Chen realized Tang San had destroyed his granddaughter Tang Yuehua’s establishment, and Ning Fengzhi’s group arrived as he stood in the imperial palace.

Tang Chen confronted the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect over Tang San, then attacked Zi Ji despite Ning Fengzhi’s attempt to settle matters peacefully. Sword Douluo Chen Xin’s Ring Fusion injured Tang Chen and left the conflict poised to escalate as nearby forces, including Shrek, arrived.

• Ning Fengzhi demanded that Tang Chen explain Tang San’s attack on Moonlight Pavilion, while Tang Chen insisted Zi Ji must die and rejected the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s proposed compromise.
• Tang Chen transformed into a crimson sword beam and attacked Zi Ji, but Bone Douluo intervened and was badly wounded by Tang Chen’s Asura Divine Sword.
• Chen Xin blocked Tang Chen and used Ring Fusion, Ninth Soul Skill—Sword Saint Chen Xin, God and Demon Dual Slash, catching Tang Chen with its mental attack and forcing him to defend.
• Tang Chen endured Chen Xin’s assault, countered with Clear Sky Nine Wonders—Soaring Sky Strike, and suppressed the Nine-Headed Bat parasitizing his body.
• Ning Rongrong revealed that she had secretly used the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to affect Tang Chen’s mind, while Shrek and nearby forces hurried toward the battle.

Tang Chen learned that Tang San had caused the slaughter in Heaven Dou and negotiated with Xue Qinghe over how to address the deaths. He removed the Slaughter Qi from Xue Ke, but could not heal her lingering injuries, then sensed that Tang San had arrived.

• Tang Yuehua stopped Tang Chen and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect from continuing their fight, then explained how Tang San’s actions had led to the slaughter.
• Tang Chen apologized to Xue Qinghe and agreed to compensate for the deaths while insisting Tang San’s name remain unstained; Xue Qinghe proposed recording him as the wanted Evil Soul Master Tang Yin and changing his appearance.
• Xue Qinghe asked Tang Chen to help his unconscious sister Xue Ke, whose body had been invaded by Slaughter Qi.
• Tang Chen drew the Slaughter Qi from Xue Ke but said her internal injuries required a powerful healing-type Soul Master if she was to awaken.
• Tang Chen sensed Tang San’s arrival and hurried out, inviting Xue Qinghe to come see him.

Tang San apologized for killing nobles and agreed to leave Heaven Dou City with Tang Chen, Tang Yuehua, and Flender so Tang Yuehua could cleanse his baleful aura before the Soul Master Competition. Back at the palace, Xue Qinghe sought a way to preserve Xue Ke’s life, and Ning Rongrong connected the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to the lost Heart of the Sea God.

• Tang Chen told Tang San that Xue Qinghe would let the matter pass but that Tang San needed to stay away from Heaven Dou City.
• Tang San apologized to Xue Qinghe and Tang Yuehua, and Tang Yuehua agreed to return with him and cleanse his baleful aura before the competition.
• Tang Chen left with Tang San, Tang Yuehua, and Flender, while Xue Qinghe and the others returned to check on Xue Ke.
• Xue Qinghe asked Ning Fengzhi about using the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to stabilize Xue Ke’s soul and delay her decline.
• Ning Rongrong said the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud resembled the lost Heart of the Sea God from Sea God Island.

Ning Rongrong revealed the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud’s connection to the Sea God to Xue Qinghe, who decided to involve the Silver Dragon King rather than risk his grandfather’s infatuation with Bo Saixi. As the Soul Master Competition approached, Dugu Yan mastered her Calamity Poison Body, Shrek Academy relocated to the Balak Kingdom, and Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan prepared to leave Glazed Tile Academy.

• Ning Rongrong told Xue Qinghe and Zi Ji that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was rumored to be connected to the Heart of the Sea God, and Xue Qinghe chose to consult the Silver Dragon King instead of Qian Daoliu.
• Xue Qinghe recalled records showing that Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen had both pursued Bo Saixi, and he feared Qian Daoliu might give the relic to her.
• Ning Rongrong told Ning Fengzhi that she had revealed the relic’s secret to see how Xue Qinghe and the others would handle it and to gauge the God Realm’s attitude.
• Dugu Yan gained control over her Calamity Poison Body while Ning Rongrong studied the divine power and faith within the Angel Holy Sword.
• Ning Fengzhi received reports that Xue Ke had gone missing and that Shrek Academy had moved to the Balak Kingdom, where Barak Academy was renamed Shrek Academy under Flender.
• Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan packed their luggage and stood at the gates of Glazed Tile Academy in Four Elements City.
