• Lin Yi explained the trap to Wang Dong'er and Huo Yuhao, carefully approached the valley's boundary, and heard a voice in his Spiritual Space say, “So it was her...”

Lin Yi learned that Tang San was using Qiankun Asking Heart Valley, the inheritance of the God of Love, to target Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, and confronted him with Ning Rongrong. The chapter ended with Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er entering the valley as Lin Yi and Tang San prepared to test their competing plans.

• The God of Light identified Qiankun Asking Heart Valley as the God of Love's inheritance, and Lin Yi realized Tang San intended to target Huo Yuhao through Wang Dong'er.
• Electrolux sensed a god's aura in the valley, and Ning Rongrong emerged before Lin Yi and refused to attack after he warned her about the punishment Tang San had received.

Lin Yi broke Qiankun Asking Heart Valley with a god-level strike powered by sacrificing his Dark God Position inheritance, rescuing Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er before the God of Destruction crushed Tang San and Ning Rongrong's Divine Sense. In the God Realm, Tang San faced judgment, and the Goddess of Life erupted in fury after learning he had torn apart his own daughter Wang Dong'er's Soul.

• Lin Yi used the Dark God Position's power to break Qiankun Asking Heart Valley, then Tang San tried to restrict Huo Yuhao but the God of Destruction intervened and destroyed Tang San and Ning Rongrong's Divine Sense.
• Lin Yi released Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, whose weakened condition forced them to flee with him toward the Sun Moon Border.

• The God of Darkness told the Goddess of Life that Tang San had torn apart Wang Dong'er's Soul again, and the furious Goddess of Life declared that Tang San deserved death.

He also sentenced Ning Rongrong to confinement, while Oscar recognized the judgment as protection from Tang San’s schemes and went to find Dai Mubai.

Lin Yi and the Golden Pavilion debated how Shrek should respond to the Three Kingdoms of Douluo’s request to rescue their captured elites and the Sun Moon Empire’s war against Star Luo. Mu En advised delaying both decisions and intervening only if Evil Soul Masters committed atrocities, then Lin Yi began to explain his differing view.

• Lin Yi learned that Tang San had been sealed in the Sea God Palace, while Ye Guyi joined Shrek Academy as a teaching assistant.
• The Three Kingdoms of Douluo asked Shrek to rescue their captured elites as the Sun Moon Empire attacked Star Luo at Mount Dou Ming, testing whether Shrek would abandon neutrality.
• At the Golden Pavilion meeting, Elder Song and Elder Lin favored rescuing the elites and stopping the war, while Yan Shaozhe advocated rescuing the elites but waiting to mediate until the war escalated.
• Yan Shaozhe persuaded Xian Lin'er, Cai Mei'er, and Qian Duoduo to support watching the war for now, and the Golden Pavilion recorded its divided votes.
• Mu En proposed delaying both decisions, noting that the Three Kingdoms might rescue their own people and that Shrek could act against Evil Soul Masters without taking sides in the war.
• Lin Yi agreed with Mu En’s approach but said he had a slightly different view and began to present a third option.

Lin Yi proposed ransoming the Three Kingdoms of Douluo captives and sending Shrek representatives to persuade both sides at Mount Dou Ming to stop fighting, then traveled to Sunrise City to rescue the captives for his Light God Trial. He reached the Water Prison and told the imprisoned elites that he had come to take them home.

• Lin Yi explained his plan to ransom the Three Kingdoms elites through Life Demon and send Elder Zhuang, Qian Duoduo, and Lin Qingxuan to Mount Dou Ming solely to persuade the warring sides to cease fighting.
• Lin Yi reassured Shrek that Life Demon had not committed evil deeds, and Mu En understood that the plan let Shrek avoid openly favoring either side.
• Elder Zhuang departed with Qian Duoduo and Lin Qingxuan under Xuan Zi's secret protection, while Lin Yi spent several days with Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan before heading to the Sun Moon Empire.
• Lin Yi learned that his Third Light God Trial required him to rescue the Three Kingdoms elites from Sunrise City without using Plane Force, then entered the heavily guarded city with Life Demon's help.
• Lin Yi followed Life Demon to the Water Prison, where hundreds of weakened captives were held, and told them he had come to take them home.

Lin Yi rescued the captured elites of the Three Kingdoms of Douluo and earned the God of Light’s reward, then agreed to save Earth Dragon Gate’s master, Nan Shui Shui. He confronted Nether Thunder in Sunrise City and brought Nan Shui Shui away, while Nan Qiūqiū and Yu Tianlong waited beyond the border.

• Lin Yi freed the Water Prison captives through a deal with Life Demon, then led them underground and out of Sunrise City.
• The God of Light declared Lin Yi’s Third Trial complete, raising his Soul Power to level seventy-eight and granting him a God Bestowed Soul Ring.
• Lin Yi escorted the rescued elites across the Sun Moon Border, restored their strength, and received their pledges of gratitude after revealing he had given Life Demon seventy percent of his life force.
• Yu Tianlong asked Lin Yi to rescue Nan Shui Shui, and Lin Yi agreed after learning the Holy Spirit Cult had kept her behind.
• Lin Yi returned to Sunrise City and forced Nether Thunder to release Nan Shui Shui, then departed with her.

Lin Yi rescued Nan Shui Shui and the other captives, then accepted the Earth Dragon Gate’s secret treasure as repayment. Inside its hidden Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Cave, he found Ice Extreme Divine Crystals and more than forty stalks of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, while the God of Light assigned him a trial to gain the Extreme North’s allegiance and Faith Power.

• Nether Thunder Douluo accepted that the Holy Spirit Cult had let the captives go, while Life Demon kept the vitality Lin Yi had paid as part of Zhong Li Wu’s bargain.
• Nan Qiūqiū offered to serve Lin Yi in gratitude for rescuing Nan Shui Shui, but Nan Shui Shui persuaded him to accept the Earth Dragon Gate’s secret treasure instead.
• Lin Yi escorted Nan Shui Shui, Nan Qiūqiū, Yu Tianlong, and the others to Dragon City, where Yu Tianlong departed and Nan Shui Shui introduced Lin Yi to the Earth Dragon Gate.
• Nan Shui Shui led Lin Yi to a well concealing a cold spring and cave, offering its suspected ice-attribute mineral vein as repayment for his rescue.
• Lin Yi discovered the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Cave, collected its Ice Extreme Divine Crystals, and found more than forty stalks of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow in a sealed chamber.
• The God of Light gave Lin Yi the Four Trials of Light: subdue Snow Empress and the Extreme North to obtain its Faith Power, with rewards including greater God Position Affinity, Soul Power, and two God Bestowed Soul Rings.

Lin Yi completed the Four Trials of Light, reached Level 80 Soul Power, and secured Snow Empress’s permission to draw on the Extreme North’s Faith Power for his God Position. With his arrangements in the Extreme North settled, he prepared to return to Shrek and condense his Eighth Soul Ring.

• Lin Yi offered Snow Empress the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, and she agreed to absorb it; he transported the marrow to the Extreme North.
• Lin Yi left the Earth Dragon Gate after giving Nan Shui Shui two Soul Bones as thanks for the secret place and promising to remember the sect’s goodwill.

• Lin Yi decided to return to Shrek and prepare to condense his Eighth Soul Ring.

Xu Tianran learned that Lin Yi had exchanged seventy percent of his life force for the rescued elites and sought to use it to restore his limbs. Lin Yi and the Holy Spirit Cult decided to seize control of the Sun Moon Empire, while Xu Tianran prepared for Life Demon’s treatment under heavy security and suspicion.

• Xu Tianran questioned Zhong Li Wu about the rescue and learned that Life Demon had accepted seventy percent of Lin Yi’s life force as ransom for the three nations’ elites.
• Xu Tianran asked whether Lin Yi’s life force could restore his limbs, and Zhong Li Wu went to consult Life Demon.
• After Life Demon contacted Lin Yi, Lin Yi proposed taking control of Sun Moon, and Zhong Li Wu and Ye Xishui agreed to the plan.
• Zhong Li Wu told Xu Tianran that his limbs would be restored in three days, prompting Xu Tianran to recall Ju Zi, who concealed her fear and doubts while speaking with him.
• Ju Zi placed the palace and its Soul Engineer Regiments on alert for the treatment, while Kong Deming noticed the unusual security but received no explanation.
• Xu Tianran, Ju Zi, Life Demon, Zhong Li Wu, and Elder Xue gathered in the secret chamber as Xu Tianran prepared for the treatment and kept the palace’s weapons ready against the Holy Spirit Cult.

Life Demon and Zhong Li Wu manipulated Xu Tianran into sacrificing Elder Xue’s life force to restore his body, while Life Demon secretly strengthened death energy inside him. As Xu Tianran’s limbs and reproductive ability began to recover, the treatment ran short of life force, and Life Demon began injecting more as Xu Tianran’s expression changed drastically.

• Xu Tianran asked Life Demon whether Lin Yi’s life force could restore both his severed limbs and his ability to father children, and Life Demon claimed more life force was needed than initially expected.
• Ju Zi revealed Xu Tianran’s infertility, and Life Demon said the treatment required the life force of a Titled Douluo; Zhong Li Wu then pressured Xu Tianran’s hidden guard Elder Xue with his aura.
• Elder Xue appeared to defend Xu Tianran, but Xu Tianran killed him, and Life Demon drained his life force to supplement Lin Yi’s.
• Xu Tianran cut open the places that needed restoration, and Life Demon used the combined life force to regenerate his limbs while secretly feeding death energy inside him.
• Life Demon claimed Xu Tianran’s Destruction-attribute Martial Soul had consumed fifteen percent more life force than expected, so Zhong Li Wu ordered Life Demon to supply the shortfall himself.
• Life Demon transformed into the Tree of Life and pierced Xu Tianran at several points to inject more life force, just as Xu Tianran’s expression changed drastically.

Life Demon killed Xu Tianran and took control of his body, securing the Holy Spirit Cult’s influence over the Sun Moon Empire while Ju Zi accepted the new ruler’s demand to cooperate. Meanwhile, Lin Yi condensed his eighth Soul Ring from Plane Force and prepared to strengthen his path to godhood by visiting Ye Guyi.

• Life Demon used death power to suppress Xu Tianran, then fused with his body and presented himself as the recovered emperor while giving Ju Zi a choice between cooperation and death.
• Ju Zi agreed to remain Empress, and the empire announced that Life Demon had restored Xu Tianran’s limbs at great cost, granting the Holy Spirit Cult greater power.
• Life Demon told Kong Deming the truth about Xu Tianran’s death and explained how Unending Life let him control Xu Tianran’s still-living body; Kong Deming accepted the arrangement for the empire’s stability.
• Lin Yi entered seclusion beneath the World Ancient Tree and used Plane Force to condense a Reincarnation Soul Ring containing the meanings of Samsara and cyclical rotation.
• Lin Yi became a Soul Douluo at rank eighty-three, told Snow Empress to absorb the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, and then headed to Ye Guyi’s residence.

Lin Yi used Ye Guyi’s Sacred Angel Martial Soul and the World Ancient Tree to search the continent for the shattered Angel God Position while she cultivated beneath the tree. After granting Ye Guyi a God Bestowed Soul Ring that became a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, he sensed the Angel God Position reappear.

• Ye Guyi agreed to help Lin Yi search for the Angel God Position, then learned she only needed to activate her Martial Soul at Shrek Academy.
• Lin Yi used Plane Force and the World Ancient Tree to spread Ye Guyi’s angel aura and sense for the god position while she entered deep meditation.
• After a month of cultivation, Ye Guyi reached Level 70 and strengthened her Martial Soul Origin.
• Lin Yi used a God Bestowed Soul Ring on Ye Guyi, and she endured its trials until it formed a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.
• Ye Guyi fused the red Soul Ring and became a Soul Saint as the Angel God Position reappeared elsewhere on the continent.

Lin Yi retrieved the shattered Angel God Position, which transformed Ye Guyi into a Six-winged Angel, and persuaded her to become his Subordinate God. He then received a divine trial to unify Douluo Continent and began preparing a low-casualty contest between the four kingdoms.

• Lin Yi used Ye Guyi's angel aura and Plane Force to bring the dormant Angel God Position to Shrek Academy, where it absorbed the Plane Force and infused Ye Guyi with its remaining angel power.
• Ye Guyi broke through her limits and evolved into a Six-winged Angel, while Lin Yi examined the Angel God Position and learned that she could restore it and become the new Angel God.
• After Ye Guyi offered her life in gratitude, Lin Yi asked her to become his Subordinate God, and she agreed.
• Lin Yi received the Five Trials of Light, whose first trial required him to unify Douluo's four great empires while limiting casualties.
• Lin Yi planned to have each kingdom send its elites to compete for rule rather than wage a costly war, and news of the coming unification spread across the continent.

Xu Tianran and the Sun Moon Empire accepted Lin Yi’s proposal to unify the continent through contests rather than war, while Life Demon revealed that he had marked most of the Holy Spirit Cult’s leaders for a future reckoning. The other nations and Shrek struggled to understand the plan, and Lin Yi offered the Elders only a cryptic explanation.

• Xu Tianran told Zhong Li Wu that Lin Yi had forbidden a war and proposed contests arbitrated by Shrek to decide control of the continent.
• Zhong Li Wu accepted that the Holy Spirit Cult could not oppose Lin Yi, while Life Demon privately continued preparing to gather the cult’s Evil Soul Masters for a reckoning.
• The Dou Ling Empire delayed its decision, and the Heaven Dou Empire took cautious comfort in the Body Sect and Shrek’s role as arbitrator.
• Xu Jiawei told Xu Jiujiu that he believed the Sun Moon Empire had joined forces with Shrek, though they could not explain how Shrek would handle Evil Soul Masters in the contests.
• Shrek’s Elders questioned Lin Yi about announcing the arrangement without consulting them, and Lin Yi replied that what had long been divided must unite.

Lin Yi imposed his authority over Shrek’s Elders, then joined Life Demon in arranging a contest between the Sun Moon Empire and the Three Kingdoms of Douluo, with Shrek as arbiter. One month later, the four nations’ Titled Douluo gathered in the sky, where Shrek’s overwhelming strength made its role in enforcing the outcome unmistakable.

• Lin Yi left the Golden Pavilion after declaring that the Pavilion Master’s authority was supreme, while Qian Duoduo stopped Xian Lin'er from challenging him.
• Lin Yi traveled to the Sun Moon Empire, where Life Demon and Kong Deming helped finalize the terms of a contest between the Sun Moon Empire and the Three Kingdoms of Douluo.
• The nations agreed to individual, team, and free-for-all matches among Titled Douluo, with the loser becoming a vassal and Shrek enforcing the result.
• Shrek’s directive barred Evil Soul Masters from participating, giving the Three Kingdoms of Douluo confidence to accept the agreement.
• One month later, nearly seventy Titled Douluo gathered in the sky, and Lin Yi led Shrek’s powerful group of arbiters before the four nations.
