• Ning Rongrong caught her breath and resolved not to let Hypnos escape.

Gu Yuena and Ning Rongrong defeated Hypnos, a Second Level God sent by the God Realm Committee to investigate Gu Yuena, and captured his soul and godhood. They then joined Di Tian, who had attacked the Clear Sky Sect, and Gu Yuena revealed that Ning Rongrong’s help had secured her victory.

• Ning Rongrong and Gu Yuena traveled to Di Tian, who was holding the corpse of a Clear Sky Sect leader, and Ning Rongrong suppressed him when he struck at them by reflex.
• Gu Yuena told Di Tian that she had defeated Hypnos with Ning Rongrong’s help, and Di Tian thanked Ning Rongrong and promised to repay her.

Gu Yuena revealed that her puppet body was failing and resolved to entrust it to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect while she recovered and prepared to lead the soul beasts back to the God Realm.

• Di Tian told Ning Rongrong and Gu Yuena how Tang Xiao used Nine Rings Explode Together to help Tang Chen escape, then died after Di Tian broke his bones with the Dragon God Claw.

Ning Rongrong returned to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect after witnessing a battle between gods, put Ning Fengzhi to sleep, and left to cultivate beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Ning Fengzhi briefed the sect’s trusted members and later revealed the full story to Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, while the Rakshasa God informed Poseidon that Hypnos had fought someone before departing the God Realm.

• Ning Rongrong emerged from a Space-time Rift, gave the sect an eighty-thousand-year Soul Bone, put Ning Fengzhi to sleep with a shot, and left to enter seclusion beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Tang Chen recounted how he and Tang Xiao had joined forces with Hypnos, only for their attempt to capture Bi Ji to end in disaster when Di Tian intervened. After Tang Xiao sacrificed himself to help Tang Chen escape, Tang Chen fled toward the Clear Sky Sect, vowing revenge and planning to seek help from Sea God Island.

• Hypnos met Tang Chen and Tang Xiao, proved his identity, and promised to investigate Spirit Hall and seek Tang Hao while Tang Chen shared information about the Soul Beasts.

While Ning Rongrong remained in seclusion at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect grew into a major military power and helped turn back the Star Luo Empire’s invasion of Heaven Dou. Two and a half years after Rongrong began cultivating, Ning Fengzhi and his allies still had no clues about the assassination of the former Star Luo Emperor and Empress.

• Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo watched the Tai Chi diagram cover the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and noted that Ning Rongrong had been cultivating there for two and a half years.
• Spirit Hall destroyed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, while the Tang Sect’s Hidden Weapons and Tang Chen helped the Star Luo Empire defeat Heaven Dou and kill Xue Qinghe.
• Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Dugu Bo intervened in the war, and Sword Douluo fought Tang Chen while Ning Fengzhi’s power forced Tang Chen to withdraw.
• Dugu Bo wiped out the Star Luo Empire’s invading army with his poison, and Ning Fengzhi ordered the surviving soldiers to retreat.
• Ning Fengzhi asked Sword Douluo about the assassination of the former Star Luo Emperor and Empress, but Sword Douluo reported that the investigation had found no useful clues.

Ning Fengzhi learned that the Tang Sect, the Star Luo Empire, and Sea God Island wanted to buy Soul Tools and meet Lou Gao in Vast Sea City, with Titan seeking to draw Lou Gao back to his old ties. Lou Gao decided to go and meet him, and Ning Rongrong appeared as Ning Fengzhi prepared to travel with him.

• Lou Gao told Ning Fengzhi that Ning Yun had sent word from Vast Sea City about the Star Luo Empire and Sea God Island seeking Soul Tools and manufacturing blueprints.

• Lou Gao chose to go to Vast Sea City to learn why Titan remained loyal to Tang Hao's son, and Ning Fengzhi agreed to accompany him.
• Ning Rongrong suddenly appeared and teased Ning Fengzhi about Catwoman as the group prepared to leave.

Ning Rongrong emerged from two and a half years of seclusion and agreed to travel to Vast Sea City with Lou Gao and Dugu Yan. After catching up with Ning Fengzhi, she learned that Di Tian wanted her to visit the Star Dou Great Forest about Gu Yuena’s former body and began investigating political upheaval involving the Star Luo Empire and Xue Qinghe.

• Ning Rongrong volunteered to accompany Lou Gao to Vast Sea City and promised she could help everyone escape even if they encountered the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
• Dugu Bo asked Ning Rongrong to bring Dugu Yan, whose Soul Power had reached level seventy-seven, and Lou Gao agreed to the arrangement.

• Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengzhi discussed Xue Qinghe’s fall and the Star Luo Empire’s new emperor, including Zhu Zhuqing’s disappearance and her marriage to Dai Weisi.
• Ning Rongrong left to prepare for the Vast Sea City contest planned for a month later.

After two and a half years in seclusion, Ning Rongrong reviewed the political fallout from Xue Qinghe’s death and wondered where Qian Renxue had gone. She examined the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s changes, secured divine combat knowledge and a reforged divine sword, and found herself closer to the Second Ultimate Realm.

• Ning Rongrong reasoned that Tang Chen had killed Xue Qinghe to destabilize the Heaven Dou Empire, while Qian Renxue had likely survived by faking her death.
• Ning Rongrong concluded that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Xue Ke, and Spirit Hall had prevented the Heaven Dou Empire from falling into chaos, and wondered whether Qian Renxue was in the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Ning Rongrong observed that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda had grown more lively as its Soul Rings began merging with Shizaki Kuang San.
• Ning Rongrong retrieved a light containing Hypnos’s and the Asura God’s combat knowledge, but decided to wait before giving it to Sword Douluo because its killing intent might affect him.
• Ning Rongrong revealed Hypnos’s Slaughter God Sword, which she had reforged with the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well into a divine weapon of ice, fire, space, and time, then stored it in the pagoda.
• Ning Rongrong put the sword away and noted that she was closer than ever to the Second Ultimate Realm.

Ning Rongrong traveled toward Vast Sea City with Dugu Yan and Lou Gao while considering the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s Soul Tools and Dugu Yan’s Calamity Poison Body. After Dugu Yan demonstrated her ability to regenerate a severed arm, Ning Rongrong reassured her and then unexpectedly removed her own eye.

• Ning Rongrong reflected on the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s Soul Tools, their anti-theft measures, and their growing role in defending the Heaven Dou Empire’s borders.
• Dugu Yan worried about her Calamity Poison Body and asked Ning Rongrong whether her condition was dangerous.
• Dugu Yan cut off her left arm and regrew it from Poison Mist, revealing that she could reconstruct her organs with toxins and Soul Power.
• Ning Rongrong told Dugu Yan that her regeneration showed strong control of her constitution and that she would be difficult to kill unless her soul was severely damaged.
• Ning Rongrong pulled a bloodied eyeball from her right eye socket.

Ning Rongrong reassured Dugu Yan after restoring her own eye and warned Lou Gao that the Strength Clan might threaten him. She then revealed she had helped Shui Cangyue reach Titled Douluo and offered to help Lou Gao advance as well, leaving him stunned by the possibility.

• Ning Rongrong removed and restored one of her eyes to reassure Dugu Yan and Lou Gao that her injury was harmless.
• Ning Rongrong warned Lou Gao that Titan might use force because of the Strength Clan’s loyalty to Tang Hao and his son, and Lou Gao agreed to stay cautious.
• As the group traveled toward Vast Sea City, Ning Rongrong asked Lou Gao whether he planned to pursue the Titled Douluo rank, but he said he had never expected to reach it.
• Ning Rongrong told Lou Gao that she had helped Shui Cangyue advance from rank 85 to rank 90 and obtain a Soul Ring that became a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
• Ning Rongrong offered to make Lou Gao a Titled Douluo, and Lou Gao froze in disbelief.

Ning Rongrong explained why Lou Gao could not yet safely undergo the method to reach Titled Douluo, then arrived with Dugu Yan and Lou Gao in Vast Sea City. She reunited with Ning Yun at the Nine Treasure Chamber of Commerce and said they had come because of Titan and Sea God Island.

• Ning Rongrong told Lou Gao that Shui Cangyue's unusual Martial Soul and the Far North Land had made her breakthrough possible, but Lou Gao's attempt would have to wait until she could guarantee success.
• Ning Rongrong assured Lou Gao she expected to be fully confident in helping him reach Titled Douluo within one or two years.
• Ning Rongrong's group arrived in Vast Sea City, where she learned that Ning Yun ran the thriving Nine Treasure Chamber of Commerce and that Purple Pearl had reached Soul Emperor at age thirty-two.
• Ning Rongrong showed the guards her token and Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, identifying herself as the Young Sect Master and asking them to summon Ning Yun.
• Ning Yun greeted Lou Gao, Ning Rongrong, and Dugu Yan, then learned that Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan had come because of Titan and Sea God Island.

Ning Rongrong met Ning Yun in Vast Sea City and learned that Titan was seeking Soul Tool blueprints while traveling with Tang San and a man who might be a Sea God Island worshipper. She ordered Ning Yun to spread word that Lou Gao had arrived while keeping her and Dugu Yan's presence secret.

• Ning Rongrong offered Wang Quanfugui a chance to receive help reaching the Titled Douluo rank, though the attempt would be dangerous.
• Ning Rongrong angrily condemned Titan for trying to stop Soul Tool supplies to the Heaven Dou Empire and obtain the manufacturing methods cheaply.
• Ning Yun told Ning Rongrong that Titan was accompanied by Tang San and another man who resembled a Sea God Island worshipper.
• Ning Rongrong told Ning Yun to leak that Lou Gao had arrived in Vast Sea City and keep her and Dugu Yan's information confidential.

Ning Rongrong planned to sell a dangerous Tier 6 Soul Tool at auction to stir up trouble in Vast Sea City, while Tang San sought Lou Gao's Soul Tool designs. Tang San decided to pursue the designs without recruiting Lou Gao, leaving his vendetta against the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect unresolved.

• Ning Rongrong gave Ning Yun the Black Tassel Spear and explained that its hidden arrays could make it explode with the force of a Soul Emperor's self-destruction if someone probed it spiritually.
• Ning Rongrong proposed postponing the auction and advertising the spear as an ancient relic linked to Lou Gao's Soul Tool-making methods; Ning Yun recognized her plan to muddy the waters in Vast Sea City.
• Ning Rongrong recorded Ning Yun's remark that Ning Fengzhi was shameless, leaving Ning Yun speechless.
• Titan told Tang San that Lou Gao had come to Vast Sea City and offered to arrange a meeting to obtain Soul Tool designs.
• Tang San agreed to seek the designs but abandoned the idea of recruiting Lou Gao, wary of provoking the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and vowed revenge against his enemies.

Ning Rongrong offered Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui a risky method to open their meridians and boost their Soul Power, explaining that Shui Cangyue had already used it to reach the Titled Douluo rank. She revealed that the plan was connected to Senior Lou Gao, leaving Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui looking to him for an explanation.

• The Nine Treasure Chamber of Commerce postponed its auction by a month and offered consignors waived fees and a twenty percent discount on future purchases.
• Ning Rongrong reunited with Purple Pearl and explained that she had summoned her to discuss a method of raising Soul Power by opening her meridians.
• Purple Pearl questioned the method’s safety and precedent, and Ning Rongrong said it had a seventy percent success rate and had helped Shui Cangyue become a Titled Douluo.
• Wang Quanfugui confirmed that he was willing to endure the painful process in hopes of breaking through to the titled rank.
• Ning Rongrong said Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui could be the next people to undergo the method and revealed that her plan was mainly about Senior Lou Gao.

Ning Rongrong explained the risks and her Time Reversal ability to Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui, who eventually agreed to let her help them break through. Just as she prepared to begin with Purple Pearl, Ning Rongrong sensed trouble: Tang San had arrived with a Soul Douluo and a Titled Douluo.

• Ning Rongrong admitted that Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui would be test subjects for her method to help Lou Gao reach Titled Douluo, and explained the possible long-lasting mental aftereffects.
• Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui swore Martial Soul oaths to keep the secret, then learned Ning Rongrong could reverse damage to their meridians with Time Reversal.
• Ning Rongrong gave Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui two days to decide, then left them to discuss the procedure while she reassured Lou Gao that the sect valued his work.
• Several days later, Purple Pearl and Wang Quanfugui agreed to proceed after taking medicine to stabilize their mental power, and Ning Rongrong chose to start with Purple Pearl.
• Ning Rongrong sensed a visitor and told Lou Gao to stay back, then took Ning Tian and Wang Quanfugui to the main hall, where she confronted Tang San and his companions.
