She revealed nine ownerless Soul Rings that could be absorbed for six days, then warned the gathered Soul Douluo that reaching the required level might cost them their lives.

• Ning Rongrong returned to the Nine Treasure Chamber of Commerce, where Ning Fengzhi and the others asked whether she had resolved the crisis.
• Ning Rongrong announced that the Beast Tide’s source was gone and Vast Sea City was safe, and she confirmed that the Sea Princess had been killed.

• Elder Wang Teng and another elder questioned whether the gathered Soul Douluo could reach level 90 in time, and Ning Rongrong said she had a way before asking if they were prepared to die.

Ning Rongrong offered the sect’s offerings a dangerous method for breaking through to Titled Douluo and revealed the Soul Rings and Soul Bones recovered from the Sea Soul Beast disaster. The offerings learned how powerful Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan had been, and the chapter ended with them shaken by Dugu Yan’s role in killing more than a hundred thousand soul beasts.

• Ning Rongrong told the offerings that her breakthrough method had succeeded for Shui Cangyue and Wang Quanfugui, though both had repeatedly crossed the boundary between life and death during the process.

• Ning Rongrong explained that Dugu Yan had personally obtained the Soul Bones below Ten Thousand Years, and the offerings were stunned that she had helped wipe out more than a hundred thousand soul beasts.

Ning Rongrong arranged for two Soul Douluo to guard Vast Sea City in exchange for help reaching the Titled Douluo realm and receiving Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings. She selected Wang Teng and Ling Tian, then began their breakthrough, which left the watching Venerates fearing they might die.

• Ning Rongrong acknowledged that she might soon enter seclusion, told Ning Fengzhi to manage the Soul Bones, and asked Wang Teng and Ling Tian to begin their breakthroughs.
• Ning Rongrong sent a platinum sphere of light into each man, and both groaned, spat blood, and suffered a sharp drop in Soul Power as the Venerates feared for their lives.

Ning Rongrong used her time-reversing power to force Wang Teng and Ling Tian through a breakthrough to level 90, though the ordeal badly exhausted her. After they succeeded, they chose to attempt absorbing Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings after a day of rest, while Ning Fengzhi worried more about Rongrong's condition than his own progress.

• Ning Rongrong revealed that she trusted only her father, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo with certain secrets, and said she hoped they would absorb Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones.
• Ning Rongrong called out Shizaki Kuang San, who emerged from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and told her to carry out the assignments while Ning Rongrong entered seclusion.
• Ning Rongrong explained that she and Kurumi could use each other's power, but Bone Douluo remained wary of trusting the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger with the sect's elders.

Ning Rongrong emerged from a month of secluded cultivation having advanced in the Ultimate Realm, then learned how Shizaki Kuang San had strengthened the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The chapter left Ning Rongrong asking where the Ice Empress and Snow Empress had gone.

• Shizaki Kuang San slapped She Long and Ci Xue aside, injured Ci Xue, and stopped She Long’s Eighth Soul Skill.
• Shizaki Kuang San reminded She Long that she had once taken his Ninth Soul Skill head-on, prompting him to recognize her as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
• A young man attacked Shizaki Kuang San, but a silvery-white sword appeared at his neck and halted him.

Ning Rongrong stopped Azure Luan Douluo from interfering with Xue Ke and pressed her to explain why she still served Spirit Hall. Xue Ke revealed that she only wanted Qian Renxue to revive her father, while Ning Rongrong said her sect sought to survive the coming upheaval.

• Ning Rongrong confronted Azure Luan Douluo, a rank-97 Titled Douluo who had tried to ambush Kurumi, and accused Spirit Hall of monitoring Xue Ke.

Ning Rongrong asked Xue Ke to publicize a panegyric praising Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, and a fallen Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Titled Douluo, hoping to ease the psychological burden of their mass killings. After arranging the propaganda and paying Xue Ke with an eighty-thousand-year Soul Bone, Ning Rongrong and Shizaki Kuang San departed.

• She Long, Ci Xue, and Azure Luan Douluo were wary of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger standing obediently beside Ning Rongrong.
• Ning Rongrong explained to Xue Ke that Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan had killed hundreds of thousands of people and Soul Beasts, and that she wanted a panegyric to ease Dugu Yan's burden.

• Xue Ke decided to recognize Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, and the fallen Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect elder Wang Quanfugui as heroes, and planned to ask Heaven Dou Academy's three presidents to handle it.

Ning Rongrong put Dugu Yan into a protected dreamscape of Kurumi’s memories of human–Soul Beast wars to help her resolve her guilt. After arranging for Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin to watch over Dugu Yan, Ning Rongrong challenged the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s elders to a group spar.

• Ning Rongrong took the others to the sect’s training field and challenged the elders to fight her together, prompting Lou Gao to ask whether he could use a Soul Tool.

Ning Rongrong fought five Titled Douluo of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and overwhelmed them with her sword skills and spiritual power. Several days later, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo worried about her upcoming trip to the Star Dou Great Forest and her eventual encounter with the Silver Dragon King.

• Qian Renxue told Di Tian she wanted to strengthen herself and the Angel Clan by risking a second Martial Soul awakening, and he agreed to help her obtain her Ninth Soul Ring.
• Gu Yuena said she would accompany Di Tian to Dragon Valley and told Qian Renxue the gate would appear near the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan in about ten days.
• Gu Yuena warned Qian Renxue not to interfere if Bibi Dong arrived and ordered her to leave the Soft Bone Rabbit alone if possible because of the Asura God’s connection to her.
• Bibi Dong assigned Yue Guan and Gui Mei to restrain the Sky Azure Bull Python while she and three venerates hunted the Titan Giant Ape, forbidding them from provoking the Soft Bone Rabbit.
• A separate team led by a Seeking Death and a young woman with a cat-like Martial Soul headed toward the Star Dou Great Forest, while Ning Rongrong considered how Dragon Valley might help Bone Douluo.

Tang San tried to persuade Da Ming and Er Ming to sacrifice themselves, admitting he wanted their flesh and blood as well as their Soul Rings and Soul Bones. As Bibi Dong’s forces attacked the two Forest Kings, Qian Renxue and the Core Area’s allies prepared to interfere with any sacrifice.

• Tang San argued that Da Ming and Er Ming should sacrifice themselves to help him and Xiao Wu, then admitted he sought their flesh and blood for revenge and power.

• Zhu Zhuqing recalled that Tang San had planned to obtain Da Ming and Er Ming's sacrifices, just as he had pursued Soul Beasts in the Ice Sea with Tang Chen and Bo Saixi.
• The Martial Soul Fusion Skill trapping the Sky Azure Bull Python broke, and Tang San rushed toward the battlefield while leaving Zhu Zhuqing with Xiao Wu.

• Tang Chen and Bo Saixi joined the battle, leaving Yue Guan and Gui Mei gravely wounded and Spirit Hall with fewer fighters able to fight.
