• Qing Mu said he would set out for Spirit City to kill Bibi Dong, then vanished with Bulbasaur.
• Bibi Dong considered the damage to Spirit City and realized she could not complete her eighth Rakshasa God Trial in Spirit Hall’s current state.

Yu Xiaogang visited Bibi Dong to plead for the surviving Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and she agreed to spare them if he could identify Qing Mu’s weakness. After studying Qing Mu’s information, Yu Xiaogang suggested fire, but Bibi Dong said even Qian Daoliu’s flames had failed.

• Yu Xiaogang read the information, questioned whether it was true, and suggested using fire against Qing Mu.
• Bibi Dong rejected the suggestion, explaining that Qian Daoliu’s Angel Martial Soul flames had no effect on Qing Mu.

Qing Mu tracked down Bibi Dong in Spirit City after Yu Xiaogang suggested using ice against him, then pursued her as she fled with Yu Xiaogang. He confronted Bibi Dong over her Rakshasa Divine inheritance and began his attack, leaving the two facing off in battle.

• Qing Mu intercepted Bibi Dong and revealed that he knew about her Rakshasa Divine inheritance.
• Qing Mu summoned his nine Soul Rings, and his evolved Venusaur fired a scorching white beam at Bibi Dong.

Qing Mu and Mega Venusaur overwhelmed Bibi Dong, and Bibi Dong’s Solar Beams killed Yu Xiaogang before her Immortal Body resurrected her. Bibi Dong then accepted the Rakshasa Divine Sense’s power and prepared to fight Qing Mu with a dark-purple scythe and armor.

• Bibi Dong drew a gigantic dark-purple scythe and began summoning purple armor after bargaining with the Rakshasa Divine Sense for power.

Qing Mu fought Bibi Dong as she wielded the Rakshasa God Armor and Demon Scythe, but her Immortal Body let her revive after he destroyed her. He then unleashed his Ninth Soul Skill, Brilliant Colorful Flower Blooming, a true God Rank attack that swallowed Bibi Dong and cracked her divine artifacts.

• Bibi Dong used her Rakshasa power to attack Qing Mu, but Venusaur's vines and Flower of the Sun overwhelmed her, and her body cracked under the strain of the Rakshasa Demon Scythe.
• Qing Mu blocked Bibi Dong's final blade of light with Protect, and Venusaur's domain reduced her body to dust.
• Bibi Dong revived with her Immortal Body and claimed Qing Mu could not kill her without a true God Rank attack.
• Qing Mu activated his Ninth Soul Skill, Brilliant Colorful Flower Blooming, and its green torrent swallowed Bibi Dong and cracked her Rakshasa Demon Scythe and God Armor.

After defeating Bibi Dong, Qing Mu buried the Rakshasa divine artifacts and returned to the Ye Family, where the group prepared to travel to Sea God Island. They arrived with Bo Saixi, who introduced them as honored guests and ordered Seahorse Douluo to assign them trials as ordinary residents.

• A bewitching woman wondered whether Bibi Dong had died and said she would have to wait before passing on her Divine Position.
• Qing Mu buried the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and Rakshasa God Armor ten thousand meters underground, then left with Bulbasaur.
• Qian Renxue found the battlefield, mourned Bibi Dong, and flew away after saying goodbye to her mother.
• Qing Mu returned to the Ye Family, and Bo Saixi asked when he would go to Sea God Island to receive the inheritance.
• After the group finished their preparations, Qing Mu used Teleport to take them to Sea God Island with Bo Saixi.
• Bo Saixi summoned the Sacred Pillar Douluo, introduced the group as honored guests, and told Seahorse Douluo to assign them trials as ordinary island residents.

Poseidon attempted to begin Qing Mu’s Sea God Trial, but Bulbasaur swallowed the first beam and the sacred pillars’ response was interrupted by the God of Destruction. The God of Destruction and the Life Goddess appeared before Poseidon and declared that they were taking Qing Mu.

• Bo Saixi sent Qing Mu and his companions to the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, then prayed at the Sea God Temple.
• The Seahorse Sacred Pillar aimed a trial beam at Qing Mu, but Bulbasaur swallowed it, prompting the pillar to envelop the group in light.
• Bo Saixi told Seahorse Douluo that Qing Mu was the Sea God’s chosen successor and had made the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King his ninth Soul Ring.
• The seven sacred pillars’ blood-red lights converged and began turning gold as they prepared to grant Qing Mu a trial.
• The God of Destruction shattered the golden light before it reached Qing Mu, then appeared with the Life Goddess and told Poseidon they were taking Qing Mu.

The God of Destruction and the Life Goddess claimed Qing Mu as the God of Destruction’s successor, leaving Poseidon powerless to object. Poseidon then found a way to make Bulbasaur his own successor, shocking the other gods.

• The God of Destruction told Poseidon that Qing Mu would become his successor, and the Life Goddess warned that a God Realm Committee vote would favor them.
• Poseidon abandoned his protest after sensing an opportunity and asked the God of Destruction and the Life Goddess for a frog in return for yielding Qing Mu.
• At Sea God Island, a golden pillar of light marked Bulbasaur with the Sea God Trident, while the God of Destruction’s and Life Goddess’s powers enveloped Qing Mu and Ye Lingling.
• Poseidon declared Bulbasaur his successor and urged him to complete the trials and inherit the Sea God Divine Position.
• The God of Destruction called Poseidon shameless after learning he had passed his Divine Position to a frog that was Qing Mu’s Martial Soul.

Ye Lingling accepted the Life Goddess's offer to inherit her Divine Position, while Qing Mu received the God of Destruction's inheritance. Qing Mu realized Poseidon had apparently chosen Bulbasaur as his successor, leaving him with a possible way to gain two Divine Positions.

• Qing Mu and Ye Lingling woke after receiving their respective inheritance offers, and Ye Lingling learned that the Life Goddess had chosen her as successor.
• The Life Goddess explained that Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul came from one of her leaves, but she chose Ye Lingling mainly so Qing Mu could inherit the God of Destruction's Divine Position and accompany her beyond the God Realm.
• The Life Goddess described the duties and restrictions of becoming a god, and Ye Lingling promised to fulfill her responsibilities before the Life Goddess departed.
• Qing Mu told Ye Lingling that he had received the God of Destruction's inheritance and wondered where Poseidon's Sea God Inheritance had gone.
• Qing Mu spotted the golden trident mark on Bulbasaur and concluded that Poseidon had chosen it as his successor, imagining that Bulbasaur's inheritance could count as his own.

Bo Saixi explained that the Sea God’s inheritance had mistakenly been bestowed on Qing Mu’s Martial Soul, Bulbasaur, while Qing Mu and Ye Lingling had also received divine trials. The group then began taking the Sea God assessments, and the chapter ended with the Seahorse Douluo concerned about the difficult results.

• Bo Saixi told Seahorse Douluo that the Sea God Nine Trials had been passed to Qing Mu’s Martial Soul, Bulbasaur, and reassured him that Qing Mu would effectively inherit the Sea God’s power.
• Ye Lingling said the Life Goddess had chosen her because of Qing Mu, and Qing Mu encouraged her to complete the trials; Qing Tianfeng and the others learned that Qing Mu had received the inheritances of the God of Destruction and the Life Goddess.
• Qing Mu asked whether his family had taken the Sea God assessment, and Qing Tianfeng received the Black-Level Fifth Trial.
• Xu Yao and Ye Haitang received the Black-level Six Trials, Dugu Bo received the Black-Level Fifth Trial, and Yang Wudi received the Black Rank Four Trials.

Dugu Yan received the Sea God's Top-Level Eight Trials, and Bo Saixi invited her to become her disciple and future High Priestess of Sea God Island. Qing Mu received both the enhanced Sea God Trial and the God of Destruction's body-tempering trial.

• Dugu Bo received the Black-Level Fifth Trial, while Dugu Yan's Sea God's Light surged into the red region and awarded her the Top-Level Eight Trials.
• Bo Saixi appeared beside Dugu Yan and asked her to become her disciple and succeed her as High Priestess; Dugu Yan agreed after Dugu Bo nodded.
• Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan teased each other about Ye Lingling's relationship with Qing Mu and her Divine Position inheritance.
• The Sea God Trial instructions reached Dugu Yan and the other trial recipients, while Qing Mu received his own Sea God Trial information.
• Qing Mu also received the God of Destruction's first trial, which required him to temper his body with an aura of destruction.

Qing Mu and Bulbasaur began their Sea God Staircase trial, climbing past nine hundred and eighty steps before the pressure stopped them. They stayed on the staircase to let Sea God's Light temper them, and Qing Mu discovered it was slowly increasing his Soul Power.

• Ye Lingling learned that her first Life Goddess trial required her to treat ten thousand people.
• Seahorse Douluo explained the Sea God Staircase trial to Qing Mu and his companions.
• Qing Mu and Bulbasaur climbed the staircase with little difficulty at first, while Sea God's Light transformed Bulbasaur more quickly.
• Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur and then Venusaur as they climbed, while Qing Mu reached nearly the nine hundred and eightieth step through physical strength and Soul Power alone.
• Qing Mu and Venusaur stopped climbing and let Sea God's Light temper them, and Qing Mu noticed his Soul Power gradually increasing.

Qing Mu and Venusaur completed the Sea God's first two trials with ease, earning increased Sea God Affinity and stronger Soul Rings. Qing Mu then asked Bo Saixi to take him to the third trial, while Poseidon hoped the inheritance would proceed without interference.

• Qing Mu and Venusaur climbed the final step before the Sea God Hall, completed the first trial, and gained ten percent Sea God Affinity.
• Qing Mu used Grassy Terrain while Venusaur spread Sleep Powder across the Ring Sea, putting the Sea Soul Beasts to sleep without killing them.
• Qing Mu and Venusaur completed the second trial, gaining another ten percent Sea God Affinity and increasing all Soul Rings' ages by one thousand years.
• Qing Mu teleported back to Bo Saixi and asked her to take him to the third trial.
• Poseidon watched the trials from the God Realm and hoped Qing Mu would inherit the Sea God's Divine Position without further complications.

Qing Mu entered the Pool of Destruction during the Sea God's third trial, enduring its power as his affinity for Destruction and Spiritual Power grew. A year and a half later, the pool's aura began liquefying into something deadly, and Qing Mu's treasures resonated as he prepared to escape.

• Bo Saixi introduced the Giant Wave Desolation as Qing Mu's third Sea God trial, and a Pool of Destruction appeared in its center.
• Qing Mu entered the pool after leaving his Storage Soul Tool behind, while Bulbasaur began the Sea God's third trial on the gray pillar.
• Qing Mu endured the pool's tempering as Bulbasaur trained and challenged Bo Saixi, and Qing Mu's Spiritual Power broke through to God Rank.
• A year and a half later, Bulbasaur had cleared all eight Sea God trials, while Qing Mu's parents, Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo, Ye Haitang, and others attempted their second trial.
• The Pool of Destruction's aura liquefied and threatened Qing Mu, while his Tera Crystal Orb, Mega Stone, Dynamax Band, and Z-Crystal began resonating.

Qing Mu survived the God of Destruction’s trial after the four treasures within him fused into the Meadow Plate, then emerged from the Pool of Destruction and reunited with Bulbasaur. He went to check on the others’ trials and found Dugu Bo struggling to cross the Ring Sea without harming its sea creatures.

• The Tera Crystal Orb, Mega Stone, Dynamax Band, and Z-Crystal merged into the Meadow Plate, which shielded Qing Mu from the Pool of Destruction while preserving his other abilities.
• The God of Destruction watched Qing Mu endure the trial and worried that he might succeed, disrupting the God of Destruction’s plans to keep his Divine Position.
• After about half a month, the Pool of Destruction vanished, and Qing Mu reunited with Bulbasaur, who had completed the first eight Sea God Trials while waiting for him.
• Qing Mu and Bulbasaur headed to check on Qing Tianfeng and the others, reaching the Ring Sea about fifteen minutes later.
• Dugu Bo, now at the peak of rank ninety-six, failed again to cross the Ring Sea without flying or killing any Sea Soul Beasts, and Qing Mu asked if he was having trouble.

Qing Mu advised Dugu Bo to use poison against the Sea Soul Beasts, then spent time with Ye Lingling on Sea God Island. Tang San and Hu Liena left the City of Slaughter with Divine Slaughter’s Domain, and Tang San arrived at Moonlight Pavilion in Heaven Dou City to seek help from Tang Yuehua.

• Qing Mu told Dugu Bo that poison could keep the Thousand-Year Sea Soul Beasts from pursuing him.
• Qing Mu visited his companions, then reunited with Ye Lingling and toured Sea God Island with her.
• Tang San and Hu Liena completed the Hell Road and obtained Divine Slaughter’s Domain.
• Tang San declined Hu Liena’s offer to return with her and set off to find his father.
• Tang San traveled to Heaven Dou City and entered Moonlight Pavilion to find Tang Yuehua.

Tang San reached Moonlight Pavilion and learned from Tang Yuehua about his parents’ past and the Clear Sky Sect’s history. He then discovered that Tang Hao had died in an attack on Spirit Hall, and swore revenge.

• Tang San forced his way into Moonlight Pavilion and proved to Tang Yuehua that he was Tang Hao’s son by showing her his Clear Sky Hammer.
• Tang Yuehua told Tang San how Tang Hao and Tang Xiao had met Ah Yin, how Spirit Hall had driven the Clear Sky Sect into hiding, and how Tang Hao’s actions had led to the Pope’s death.
• Tang San grew furious at Spirit Hall, then realized his worsening temper after leaving the City of Slaughter was why Tang Hao had sent him to Tang Yuehua.
• Tang Yuehua revealed that Tang Hao had died when Qian Daoliu annihilated the forces that attacked Spirit Hall, including the Clear Sky Sect.
• Tang San unleashed Divine Slaughter’s Domain and vowed that he would not rest until Spirit Hall was destroyed.

Hu Liena returned to Spirit Hall and learned that Bibi Dong was dead, while the gods grew impatient with Qing Mu for delaying his final trial. Qing Mu left Sea God Island to seek stronger opponents and appeared at the Lake of Life, startling Di Tian.

• Hu Liena returned to the Palace of the Pope, where Qian Daoliu told her Bibi Dong had died and refused to explain how.
• The God of Destruction and Poseidon complained that Qing Mu was delaying his final divine trial, while the Life Goddess noted that Ye Lingling's trial was proceeding normally.
• After fighting Bo Saixi again, Qing Mu decided to travel to the continent with Bulbasaur to seek stronger opponents and gain experience.
• Qing Mu and Bulbasaur appeared at the Lake of Life, where they startled Di Tian as he rested with Bi Ji.
• Di Tian confronted Qing Mu and wondered how much stronger he had become, since he had not sensed his arrival.
