Three months later, Bibi Dong reached level 90, and the group prepared to sail out to hunt the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King for her Ninth Soul Ring.

• Gu Han revealed that he had reached level 90, gained three powerful Ninth Soul Skills, and needed seclusion to stabilize his cultivation.

• Qian Daoliu left Golden Crocodile behind to oversee Spirit Hall while the group set out, and the Elders were left to watch Little Qian Renxue and Little Golden Lion.

Qian Daoliu led his group from Vast Sea City toward Sea God Island, where he hoped to enlist a powerful helper to fight the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. After a week at sea, the group reached the island, but its guards stopped them before they could enter.

• Qian Daoliu and the others reached Sea God Island after a week at sea, and Qian Daoliu eagerly anticipated seeing Bo Saixi again.
• More than a dozen Sea Soul Masters surrounded the group on the beach and demanded to know why they had trespassed.

Qian Daoliu brought the Spirit Hall group to Sea God Island to ask Bo Saixi for help hunting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King as Bibi Dong's Ninth Soul Ring. Bo Saixi agreed, then was shocked by Bibi Dong's age and God Trial before teasing Qian Daoliu that he had come to show off.

• Bo Saixi arrived and dismissed the Spirit Masters, then questioned Qian Daoliu about bringing such a powerful group to Sea God Island.

• Qian Daoliu introduced Qian Xunji, Ling Yuan, Azure Luan, Gu Han, and Bibi Dong to Bo Saixi.
• Bo Saixi learned that Bibi Dong was fifteen and Gu Han was eighteen, then pulled Qian Daoliu aside and asked if he had come to show off.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong tested the Sea God's Light and discovered that it affected them despite neither undergoing a Sea God Trial. Sea Dragon Douluo and the other guardians confirmed the change and went to consult Bo Saixi, leaving its cause unexplained.

• Bo Saixi led Qian Xunji and the others to the Reception Hall, where they discussed Sea God Island's Titled Douluo and its alliance with Xiao Bai's clan.
• Bibi Dong brought Gu Han to the Seagod Stairway to investigate the golden Sea God's Light.
• Sea Dragon Douluo explained that the light should only pressure people taking a Sea God Trial, but Bibi Dong felt its pressure as she climbed.
• Gu Han and Sea Dragon Douluo also felt the pressure on the stairs, even though neither was undergoing a Sea God Trial.
• Sea Dragon Douluo summoned the other Sacred Pillar Douluos and Xiao Bai to test the light, then proposed that they ask Bo Saixi whether the Sea God had changed its rules.

Bo Saixi realized that the Sea God’s connection to Sea God Island had been severed, then joined Gu Han, Bibi Dong, and the others in confronting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. During the opening attack, her Martial Soul unexpectedly changed into an image of herself, leaving her stunned as Qian Daoliu struck at their fleeing opponent.

• Sea Dragon Douluo and Seahorse Douluo reported the change in Sea God’s Light to Bo Saixi, who agreed to let Sea Soul Masters use its pressure to overcome bottlenecks.
• Bo Saixi recognized signs that the Sea God’s divine position had been destroyed and his connection to the island cut off, while Gu Han suspected the same from her reaction.

• Bo Saixi summoned sea beasts, while the group combined their attacks to drive the whale king into the sky.
• The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King threatened to self-destruct, then suddenly broke through the encirclement and escaped at high speed.

• The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King resented the humans for targeting it and realized they intended to use it as a Spirit Ring for the girl with eight Soul Rings.

Gu Han and the others pursued the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King across the ocean, but he repeatedly avoided fighting and escaped their attempts to corner him. After he unleashed a counterattack that let him flee again, Qian Daoliu concluded that hunting him would not be simple.

• Qian Daoliu, Bo Saixi, Bibi Dong, and Gu Han chased the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, who used waves and evasive tactics to avoid fighting.
• Gu Han reassured Bibi Dong that they should continue pursuing him patiently, though the group struggled to restrain him over several hours.
• Qian Xunji provoked the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King by explaining that they wanted his Spirit Ring to help Bibi Dong become a god.
• Qian Daoliu, Bo Saixi, Gu Han, Bibi Dong, and the others launched a coordinated attack, but the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King used Devour to gather their attacks and expelled them as a Lightning Torrent.
• The resulting explosion forced Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi to retreat, and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King escaped again.
• Qian Daoliu admitted that hunting an equally powerful opponent determined to flee would be difficult.

After a week of chasing the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, the group rested on an island and planned a new strategy to corner it among reefs. Gu Han learned more about the Sea God’s past deception of the whale and the Snow Emperor and Ice Empress, while the group remained determined to kill their quarry.

• Qian Xunji suggested switching to another spirit ring, but Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu insisted they keep pursuing the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
• Azure Luan and Ling Yuan warned that the whale’s repeated escapes made their current strategy dangerous and ineffective.
• Gu Han suspected the whale’s strong luck would let it escape unless a God Level being influenced it to fight, and wondered if the Sea God had done so in the past.
• Qian Xunji proposed persuading the whale to sacrifice itself to Dong Er, but Bo Saixi explained that the Sea God had previously betrayed the whale after promising to take it to the God Realm.
• The Snow Emperor and Ice Empress told Gu Han that the Sea God had made and broken a similar promise to them, and that they trusted Gu Han because he was not the Sea God.
• The group rested on a nearby island, then planned to drive the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King toward a dense cluster of reefs and defeat it there.

Gu Han lured the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King toward an Island Reef, where Qian Daoliu, Bo Saixi, and others joined the ambush. Bibi Dong delivered the fatal blow, and Qian Daoliu destroyed the whale king’s soul, leaving the group victorious.

• Tang Yuehua arrived in Spirit City to have Gu Han help resolve her Martial Soul problem and to spend time with him.
• Gu Han showed Bibi Dong the Rifle and cannon he had developed with Lou Gao, and she agreed to test them in the Back Mountain.

• Gu Han fired a cannon and rifle for Bibi Dong, who saw their potential to strengthen Spirit Hall and agreed they needed to keep the weapons secret.
• Gu Han planned to approach the Blacksmiths’ Association in Gengxin City and said they would leave the next day, but a subordinate reported Tang Yuehua’s arrival.

• Gu Han explained that Bibi Dong would examine Tang Yuehua’s meridians and acupoints using his written instructions.
• Bibi Dong invited Tang Yuehua to learn music from her, and Tang Yuehua agreed to begin with the zither.
• Gu Han waited while Bibi Dong took Tang Yuehua to a private room and blocked Spiritual Power perception with the Evil Divine Sword.
• Bibi Dong examined Tang Yuehua’s acupoints and found that her meridians had little blockage.
• Bibi Dong sent Soul Power through Tang Yuehua’s body, but it disappeared when it entered her dantian.

Gu Han discovered that Tang Yuehua’s Innate Domain was absorbing the Soul Power sent into her and suspected it was preventing her from cultivating. He poured in enough Soul Power to awaken her Noble Circle and Domain, leaving her able to cultivate and Gu Han recovering from the effort.

• Bibi Dong reported that Tang Yuehua’s meridians were clear but that Soul Power vanished after entering her body.
• Gu Han found that Tang Yuehua’s Innate Domain absorbed incoming Soul Power and proposed that it needed enough energy to awaken fully.
• With Bibi Dong guarding them, Gu Han sent Soul Power into Tang Yuehua in the Secret Chamber, causing her Noble Circle and Domain to manifest and expand.
• Gu Han increased his Soul Power to the level of a Titled Douluo, and Tang Yuehua endured the pain until her Martial Soul and Innate Domain fully awakened.
• Tang Yuehua broke through to level ten with a Super Martial Soul, while Bibi Dong took her to wash and Gu Han meditated to recover the Soul Power he had spent.

Tang Yuehua confirmed that her Soul Power no longer vanished and revealed the abilities of her evolved Heavenly Rhythm Nine Harmony Ring and Nine Harmony Sacred Domain. Gu Han tested her Martial Soul in the arena and judged it a Super Martial Soul.

• After recovering from her weakness, Tang Yuehua and Bibi Dong argued over how to address each other and settled on affectionate nicknames.
• Tang Yuehua meditated and confirmed that her Soul Power circulated normally instead of disappearing.
• Tang Yuehua showed Gu Han and Bibi Dong her Heavenly Rhythm Nine Harmony Ring and described its musical attacks, support effects, and Nine Harmony Sacred Domain.
• Gu Han took Tang Yuehua to the Martial Arts Arena to test her abilities while Bibi Dong watched.
• Tang Yuehua's flute music struck Gu Han with mental and physical force, then dispelled negative effects and boosted his attack; Gu Han concluded that her Martial Soul was a Super Martial Soul.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong helped Tang Yuehua plan a Soul Ring path that balanced musical control, support, offense, and mobility. In the Star Dou Great Forest, Yu Xiaogang continued growing stronger by devouring Spirit Beasts until a Titled Douluo sent to protect him warned that his actions could attract the forest’s Fierce Beasts.

• Gu Han asked Tang Yuehua which path she wanted to prioritize, and she chose Musical Rhythm Control with support as a secondary focus.
• Gu Han and Bibi Dong recommended Spirit Beasts and abilities for Tang Yuehua’s first seven Soul Rings, then offered to arrange the hunts while she paid the costs.
• Yu Xiaogang devoured a hundred-year Hell Giant Lizard and believed he could reach Titled Douluo rank within ten years by consuming stronger Spirit Beasts.
• A black-robed Evil Soul Master revealed that he was a Titled Douluo sent by a lord to protect Yu Xiaogang.
• Yu Xiaogang ordered the man to capture thousand-year Evil Attribute Spirit Beasts, so the man grabbed him by the throat and warned him not to treat him as a subordinate.
• The black-robed man warned Yu Xiaogang that his devouring would attract the Star Dou Great Forest’s Fierce Beasts, which might kill him.

• The black-robed man warned Yu Xiaogang that he could devour soul beasts freely in Slaughter City, but Yu Xiaogang refused to go there and planned to head for Sunset Forest.

• The black-robed man watched from a rooftop and decided Yu Xiaogang was beginning to look the part.

While Tang Yuehua waited for a rare Spirit Beast, Gu Han and Bibi Dong spent time with her and Dongfang Lingyun, who had become a Soul Grandmaster. After Bibi Dong escorted Tang Yuehua to Moonlight Pavilion, Gu Han set out for Gengxin City.

• Dongfang Lingyun's second soul skill, Flowing Vitality, restored health and Soul Power and helped heal injuries and dispel negative effects.
• Gu Han saw that Qian Renxue's fortune was extraordinary and worried that a god might tamper with it, but resolved to grow stronger rather than rush his own cultivation.
• Gu Han broke through to level 93, and Bibi Dong and Tang Yuehua congratulated him.
• Bibi Dong decided to accompany Tang Yuehua to Moonlight Pavilion to continue studying noble etiquette and music, and Gu Han asked her not to cause trouble.
• Bibi Dong flew away with Tang Yuehua on the Evil Divine Sword, and Gu Han then left Spirit City for Gengxin City on the Mystic Ice Sword.
