As the soul beasts attacked, Xuan Zi and Du Busi confronted Di Tian in the sky, but the Beast God overwhelmed them, leaving Shi Xing to rally Shrek’s forces for the defense.

• Huo Yutong reported that the Beast Tide had destroyed forward gathering sites and was nearing Shrek City, so Qian Chaoguang mobilized his forces and arranged for Xuan Ziwen to bring an advance legion back.
• He Caitou and Xiao Xiao saw dark clouds approaching Shrek City, and Elder Xuan ordered the Inner Academy Disciples to assemble at the southern wall.

• Huo Yutong spotted a concealed force of more than a thousand Soul Beasts led by two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, with four Phantom Dance Butterflies and a Dream Demon Tapir hiding their auras.
• The Soul Beast force revealed itself near Shrek City’s northern wall and charged, while Gong Changlong and Wei Wulan prepared to stop the two leaders.
• Wei Wulan’s attack barely injured the War Elephant, and the northern defenders became trapped in close combat as other Soul Beast hordes launched stronger assaults around the city.

Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong returned to Shrek City during the million-strong Beast Tide, bringing captured soul beasts and a stock of ownerless Soul Rings to sell. As Shrek’s defenders organized for a prolonged siege, Qian Chaoguang observed Shi Xing’s Space-Time Silver Plate and realized its supposed time powers were actually applications of space.

• Elder Song returned from fighting Jade Swan Bi Ji, whose healing greatly reduced the Beast Tide’s losses.

• Elder Song ordered Shrek’s forces to rotate their fighters, conserve weapons, and guard the walls against further ambushes.
• Shi Xing used his Space-Time Silver Plate to make a large group of soul beasts vanish, and Qian Chaoguang concluded that the technique relied on spatial power rather than true control of time.

Shrek City endured a second, more dangerous wave of the beast tide as Bi Ji and the soul beasts adapted their attacks. Qian Chaoguang’s mecha legion and Shrek’s defenders joined forces, but the battle was still raging when the chapter ended.

• Bi Ji realized Shrek had tricked her with a false attack, and she struggled to maintain her healing while the first wave continued for three hours.

After Shrek City’s defenders endured a night of fighting against the Beast Tide, they struggled to recover as the city mobilized its people and supplies. The Beast Tide attacked again after barely two hours of rest, and Xuan Ziwen volunteered to command the mechs and All-Terrain Self-Propelled Soul Tool Cannon Platforms to hold the line.

• The first night of fighting left more than a hundred soldiers dead, over five hundred wounded, and Shrek’s weapons and defenders badly exhausted, while the Soul Beasts suffered heavy losses.
• Shrek’s civilians, merchants, Soul Masters, and Food System Soul Masters supplied the walls and helped restore the defenders’ Soul Power as Qian Chaoguang used his healing and protective abilities to support the battle.
• Shi Xing assessed the city’s fragile defenses and worried that the vicious beasts and Di Tian could overwhelm Shrek once its reserves were depleted.
• After just over two hours of rest, the Beast Tide attacked again, forcing the exhausted defenders back to the walls.
• Xuan Ziwen offered to take command of the mechs and All-Terrain Self-Propelled Soul Tool Cannon Platforms and hold the line for two hours while the others recovered.

• Xuan Ziwen fired Death Anthem into the Beast Tide, and its enormous lotus of light killed nearly every beast within five kilometers, including the Six-winged Dark Golden Tiger.
• Xuan Ziwen confirmed Death Anthem’s destructive power, and Shi Xing realized the attack had wiped out the wave and bought the defenders more time to rest.

Xuan Ziwen fired Death Anthem, killing tens of thousands of soul beasts and forcing the Beast Tide to pause while Shrek City recovered. Qian Chaoguang prepared the collected corpses as ice-burst explosives and gathered Shrek and Body Sect Titled Douluo to plan for the next attack.

• Xuan Ziwen used Death Anthem to kill tens of thousands of soul beasts, including the Six-winged Dark Golden Tiger, and Scarlet King ordered the survivors to retreat.
• Xuan Ziwen and the human legion collected the corpses, Soul Rings, Soul Bones, and other battlefield resources, while Qian Chaoguang gave the Hundred Year skull Soul Bone to Cai Mei'er for one Gold Soul Coin.
• Xuan Ziwen reported that the blast had produced thirty-eight Soul Bones and killed at least forty to fifty thousand soul beasts, and Qian Chaoguang and the Shrek elders discussed Death Anthem's strategic value.
• After the soul beasts halted their attacks for nearly half a day, Qian Chaoguang infused the gathered corpses with Extreme Ice Soul Power to prepare them for Ice Burst detonations.
• Qian Chaoguang gathered the Body Sect and Shrek Titled Douluo to discuss their defense against the next Beast Tide.

Qian Chaoguang prepared Shrek City’s defenses with an enormous stockpile of Soul Tools and Fixed Soul Cannonballs as the Beast Tide launched its all-out assault from four directions. Shrek’s bombardment devastated the soul beast army, and Bi Ji sent the Jade Swan kin to heal the wounded as the battle continued.

• Qian Chaoguang deployed Soul Tools and ammunition across Shrek City’s walls, while Qian Duoduo supplied Shrek’s Level Nine and Level Eight Fixed Soul Cannonballs and Mo Xuan took his position in the central tower.
• The four ferocious beasts—Bi Ji, Scarlet King, Bear Lord, and Myriad Demon King—surrounded Shrek City with the soul beast army and launched attacks from all four directions.
• At Qian Chaoguang’s command, Shrek’s defenders fired successive volleys, using weaker shells to deceive the soul beasts before striking them with Level Seven and Level Eight Fixed Soul Cannonballs and incendiary oil.
• Shrek’s bombardment killed more than one hundred thousand soul beasts in under a minute, leaving the ferocious beasts shocked and Bi Ji regretting the attack.
• Bi Ji ordered the Jade Swan kin to take flight and heal the wounded soul beasts.

Qian Chaoguang detonated tens of thousands of frozen soul beast corpses with the Ice Blast Technique, devastating the beast tide and forcing Bi Ji to withdraw most of the surviving Jade Swans. Shrek then committed its remaining weapons as the ferocious beasts prepared to lead their strongest forces against the city walls.

• Qian Chaoguang warned Bi Ji to withdraw the Jade Swan Clan, but she shielded her healers and dismissed his threat.
• Qian Chaoguang triggered Ice Blast across the battlefield, killing nearly every soul beast within five kilometers and destroying more than half of the Jade Swans.
• Qian Chaoguang offered Bi Ji another chance, and she gathered her surviving clansmen and pulled them back.
• Qian Chaoguang ordered Shrek to expend its non-ninth-tier Fixed Soul Cannonballs, and the city's turrets, Soul Engineers, and other defenses unleashed their firepower.

• The ferocious beasts in three directions flew toward Shrek City's walls with their powerful subordinates after deciding to attack together.
