Chapter Summaries

Lin Xuan discovered that hidden magical Array Patterns were the key to Battle Armor and crafted modified gauntlets and greaves for Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan. He left the more complex connected components untested after an attempted connection short-circuited and nearly caused a catastrophic explosion.

• Zhu Zhuqing tried Lin Xuan's copied gauntlets, which fitted themselves to her and greatly increased her strength and speed.
• Lin Xuan recognized that Battle Armor's power came from magical Array Patterns hidden among its Soul Tool Runes, then reclaimed the gauntlets to make components better suited to Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan.
• Lin Xuan modified the designs and crafted gauntlets and greaves focused on Zhu Zhuqing's speed and concealment and Dugu Yan's strength and Soul Power regulation.
• The four components greatly amplified both women's combat strength, and Lin Xuan estimated that a complete eleven-piece set could boost them by at least twenty Soul Power levels.
• Lin Xuan's attempt to connect additional components short-circuited and nearly crippled Zhu Zhuqing, so he postponed testing the arm, thigh, chest, belt, and head components.

Lin Xuan’s attempt to acquire more Sinking Silver led him toward Vast Sea City, but the Golden Dragon King’s fourth seal suddenly released. As he slept through the transformation, his Dragon God Bloodline suppressed and assimilated the Golden Dragon King’s blood, strengthening him and condensing a second nine-colored Blood Essence Soul Ring.

• Lin Xuan crafted a Battle Armor piece for his left hand and discovered that Battle Armor fused with his Soul Bone Set armor, making it sturdier and more complete in appearance.
• Dugu Yan explained that the Giant Whale Family of Vast Sea City controlled much of the continent’s deep-sea ore mining, so Lin Xuan set out to trade for Sinking Silver.
• The Golden Dragon King’s fourth seal released, and Lin Xuan carried Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing away from the city before falling asleep in a cocoon woven from Blue Silver Emperor vines.
• Dugu Yan also fell asleep under Lin Xuan’s Dragon Power, while Zhu Zhuqing stayed awake to guard them.
• Within Lin Xuan, the Dragon God Bloodline suppressed and assimilated the newly released Golden Dragon King blood, while the Genesis God Core infused it with nine-colored power.
• Lin Xuan’s physical strength rose rapidly, and a second nine-colored Blood Essence Soul Ring began to condense.

After completing his Dragon God Bloodline awakening, Lin Xuan recovered his strength and discovered that his power and abilities had greatly increased. He tested his new soul skill and Extreme Attribute fire while Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan remained unconscious.

• Lin Xuan emerged from the cocoon, put the exhausted Zhu Zhuqing and transformed Dugu Yan to sleep in Hammocks, and began eating to replenish his energy.
• After eating for five hours, Lin Xuan found that his Bloodline Power and base strength had doubled to 200,000 Jin, giving him one hundred tons of strength.
• Lin Xuan examined his Nine-Colored Soul Rings and named the evolved second-ring ability Dragon God Hegemony, which granted three seconds of invincibility and one hundred percent Energy Absorption.
• Lin Xuan summoned fire with an Extreme Attribute, scorching the surrounding plants and realizing that his other eight attributes had also reached the Extreme Attribute level.

Lin Xuan tested his nine Extreme Attributes and traveled with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing to Vast Sea City, where he sought the Giant Whale Family’s Deep Sea Heavy Silver vein. Lan Luosi faced a choice between protecting his family’s secret and cooperating with Lin Xuan.

• Lin Xuan reflected on his strength, while Xiao Wu continued her Asura God examination and worried about finishing her trials within two years.
• Lin Xuan brought Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing to Vast Sea City to find Sinking Silver and a sixth Soul Ring for Dugu Yan, who had reached Level 60.
• Dugu Yan presented her token at the Giant Whale Mansion, and patriarch Lan Luosi recognized Lin Xuan and greeted him respectfully.
• Lin Xuan asked Lan Luosi for the location of the Deep Sea Heavy Silver vein, promising to leave the vein under the family’s management and offer compensation.
• Lan Luosi hesitated because the vein was the Giant Whale Family’s lifeline, while Lin Xuan made clear that he could refuse.

Lin Xuan bought the Giant Whale Family’s two tons of Sinking Silver and learned that its mine lay in the Demonic Whale Sea Area. Believing the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had already been killed, he headed there with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing to seek more Sinking Silver.

• Lan Luosi told Lin Xuan that the Giant Whale Family had only two tons of Sinking Silver available, and Lin Xuan bought it for one million Gold Soul Coins.
• Lan Luosi revealed that the Sinking Silver mine was in the Demonic Whale Sea Area, where the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had once made mining dangerous.
• Lin Xuan realized the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had already been killed and decided not to wait for the Giant Whale Family to gather more Sinking Silver.
• Lin Xuan bought a nautical chart and used the Blue Silver Emperor to weave a boat at the docks.
• Lin Xuan, Dugu Yan, and Zhu Zhuqing sped toward the deep sea as Lin Xuan began refining the Sinking Silver with Ultimate Gold.

Lin Xuan took Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan into the Demonic Whale Sea Area, found the Sinking Silver and Blue Pregnancy Copper veins, and mined a large haul. He stopped when he sensed someone familiar arriving nearby.

• Lin Xuan transformed the Blue Silver Speedboat into a submarine and used a water barrier to descend with Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan.
• Lin Xuan expanded his Nature Domain through deep-sea plants and found both the Sinking Silver vein and a Blue Pregnancy Copper vein.
• Lin Xuan used Ultimate Light to illuminate the seabed and Ultimate Gold to extract about five thousand tons of Sinking Silver and a thousand tons of Blue Pregnancy Copper.
• Lin Xuan stopped mining after sensing the arrival of someone he recognized.

Lin Xuan met Bo Saixi in the deep sea, where he revealed that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had been killed. Bo Saixi invited Lin Xuan and his companions to Sea God Island, but he declined for now, leaving her determined to pursue her plan.

• Bo Saixi found Lin Xuan while investigating the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's disappearance and asked what had happened.
• Lin Xuan told Bo Saixi that an eight-hundred-thousand-year True Dragon had killed the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
• Bo Saixi invited Lin Xuan, Dugu Yan, and Zhu Zhuqing to visit Sea God Island, offering the women other Sea God trials.
• Lin Xuan declined, citing the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition and a companion's unresolved trouble, but promised to visit after his God Trial began.
• Bo Saixi left after renewing her invitation, and Lin Xuan's expression darkened as he realized she had not abandoned her plan.

Lin Xuan explained that Bo Saixi had urged Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing to take the Sea God trials so they could replace her as High Priestess and spare her from sacrificing herself. He then brought Dugu Yan to hunt a ninety-thousand-year Silver Ring Sea Poison Dragon for her sixth Soul Ring, while Zhu Zhuqing resolved to grow stronger.

• Lin Xuan told Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing that Bo Saixi had wanted them to become High Priestesses and replace her, since Lin Xuan's ascension as Sea God inheritor would eventually require Bo Saixi's sacrifice.
• Dugu Yan grew angry at Bo Saixi, while Zhu Zhuqing silently resolved to pursue greater strength.
• Lin Xuan stopped the boat in unfamiliar waters and said he had brought them there to prepare Dugu Yan's sixth Soul Ring.
• Lin Xuan struck the sea with his fused Bloodline Power and Spiritual Power, then pulled a weakened ninety-thousand-year Silver Ring Sea Poison Dragon from the water.
• Lin Xuan carried Dugu Yan toward the Sea Poison Dragon, and Zhu Zhuqing began meditating as she wished to become stronger too.

Lin Xuan helped Dugu Yan absorb the Silver Ring Sea Poison Dragon’s sacrifice, granting her a powerful new Soul Ring and Soul Bone, then set off with her and Zhu Zhuqing for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition. Their journey was interrupted by the attacking Evil Orca King, which Lin Xuan immediately regarded as a source of Soul Bones.

• Lin Xuan pressured the Silver Ring Sea Poison Dragon into sacrificing itself to Dugu Yan in exchange for the promise of revival and a chance to become a Divine Beast.
• After absorbing the sacrifice, Dugu Yan gained a Nine-Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, a left arm Soul Bone, and five Soul Power levels, reaching Level Sixty-Five.
• Dugu Yan revealed her Mixed Poison Amplification Soul Skill and her Silver Ring Sea Poison Whip Soul Bone Skill to Lin Xuan and Zhu Zhuqing.
• Lin Xuan decided that he, Dugu Yan, and Zhu Zhuqing would return to watch the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition and settle Zhu Zhuqing’s engagement.
• The Evil Orca King ambushed the group and crushed their Blue Silver Grass boat, but Lin Xuan carried Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing into the air.
• Dugu Yan remarked that the Evil Orca King had delivered itself to them just as she wanted more Soul Bones, and Lin Xuan decided how to distribute them.

Lin Xuan defeated the Evil Orca King after the injured beast attacked his boat and begged for mercy. He took the Evil Orca King's hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone and displayed it alongside the Demon Empress's two-hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone, with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing beside him.

• The Evil Orca King, fleeing after a clash with Sea God Island, attacked Lin Xuan and the women aboard his boat to recover from his injuries.
• Lin Xuan unleashed his golden Bloodline Power and refused the Evil Orca King's pleas for mercy.
• Lin Xuan killed the Evil Orca King with a golden dragon attack, leaving its hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring unused.
• Lin Xuan collected the Evil Orca King's hundred-thousand-year Left Leg Bone and showed it alongside the Demon Empress's two-hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone.
• Dugu Yan praised Lin Xuan's strength, and he grinned while displaying his Soul Bones.

Lin Xuan gave the Demon Empress's Soul Bones to Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, then flew toward the Star Dou Great Forest in a Blue Silver Grass Flying Boat. There, Sword Douluo Chen Xin sensed Lin Xuan approaching, while Ning Rongrong planned to hunt a Soul Ring and compete in a tournament.

• Lin Xuan gave the Demon Empress's two-hundred-thousand-year right arm Soul Bone to Dugu Yan and the other Soul Bone to Zhu Zhuqing.
• Lin Xuan severed Dugu Yan's arm, removed her old Soul Bone, and regrew the limb with natural life energy before both women began absorbing their new Soul Bones.
• Lin Xuan used the Blue Silver Emperor's flight skill and his Bloodline Power to propel a Flying Boat toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Chen Xin carried Ning Rongrong toward the Star Dou Great Forest, where she planned to hunt a Soul Beast and later lead a team in a competition.
• Chen Xin sensed Lin Xuan's powerful, sunlike aura approaching and slowed down, while Lin Xuan continued toward them without noticing.

Lin Xuan and Chen Xin raced toward the Star Dou Great Forest, where Chen Xin discovered Lin Xuan’s overwhelming strength and the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing were absorbing. Chen Xin was left stunned and speechless by Lin Xuan’s apparent wealth of Soul Bones.

• Lin Xuan continued toward the Star Dou Great Forest as Chen Xin slowed down to let him catch up.
• Lin Xuan overtook Chen Xin without acknowledging him, prompting Chen Xin to pursue at full speed with Ning Rongrong urging him on.
• Chen Xin activated his fourth Soul Skill and finally caught up with Lin Xuan, then recognized him and was shocked by his powerful aura and speed.
• Ning Rongrong recognized Lin Xuan and suspected his golden Flying Boat was responsible for his speed.
• Chen Xin noticed Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing absorbing Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones and stared at Lin Xuan in disbelief and envy.

Lin Xuan traveled toward the Star Dou Great Forest alongside Chen Xin and Ning Rongrong while Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing absorbed Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones. Zhu Zhuqing woke with her Soul Power at Level 50, leaving Ning Rongrong bitterly envious.

• Chen Xin saw Lin Xuan's two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones but controlled his desire and continued flying with him toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Ning Rongrong sensed that the Soul Bones were peerless treasures, kept quiet, and secretly envied Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing.
• Zhu Zhuqing woke during the flight, noticed Chen Xin and Ning Rongrong, and respectfully greeted Lin Xuan.
• Zhu Zhuqing told Lin Xuan that her physical fitness had improved and her Soul Power had reached Level 50.
• Ning Rongrong reacted with shock and envy as she compared Zhu Zhuqing's advancement with her own Level 30.

After leaving Chen Xin and Ning Rongrong, Lin Xuan found Zhu Zhuqing a spatial Nether Leopard for her Soul Ring and took her to the Lake of Life to visit Da Ming and Er Ming. The two beasts arrived calling for Xiao Wu, while Chen Xin returned to warn the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect that Lin Xuan was now his equal or stronger.

• Lin Xuan departed with Zhu Zhuqing, and Chen Xin warned Ning Rongrong not to offend Lin Xuan because his strength no longer depended on Soul Tools and could rival Chen Xin's.
• Chen Xin took Ning Rongrong into the Star Dou Great Forest, helped her absorb a Soul Ring, and returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to report Lin Xuan's return and strength.
• Lin Xuan found Zhu Zhuqing a space-attribute Nether Leopard, and she absorbed its Soul Ring aboard the Flying Boat.
• Lin Xuan flew with Zhu Zhuqing to the Lake of Life, using his Blue Silver Domain to pass through the inner region undisturbed.
• Da Ming and Er Ming emerged at the Lake of Life and called out for Xiao Wu before they could see Lin Xuan clearly.

Lin Xuan visited the Lake of Life, told Da Ming and Er Ming that Xiao Wu was undergoing a God Trial, and left with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing still cultivating. On his way out of the Star Dou Great Forest, he spotted Chen Xin’s sword aura and diverted to find Chen Xin and Qian Renxue’s groups confronting each other over the frightened Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

• Lin Xuan punched Da Ming and Er Ming back into the lake when they mistakenly thought Xiao Wu had returned with him.
• Lin Xuan told Da Ming and Er Ming that Xiao Wu was undergoing a God Trial, and they celebrated until he punched them again for disturbing Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing’s cultivation.
• Er Ming prepared food for Lin Xuan, and Da Ming began calling him brother-in-law after they discussed Xiao Wu.
• Lin Xuan ate with the two beasts, packed extra food, and left in his Flying Boat with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing.
• Lin Xuan spotted Chen Xin’s sword aura and changed course to investigate.
• Lin Xuan found Chen Xin and Ning Rongrong facing off against She Long, Ci Xue, and Qian Renxue, with both sides focused on the trembling Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Lin Xuan arrived as Qian Renxue’s group and Chen Xin’s group fought over the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, whose Extreme Light attribute suited Qian Renxue and whose potential interested Chen Xin. After Ci Xue attacked Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan erased the poison spikes with a palm and struck Ci Xue into the forest.

• Qian Renxue and Chen Xin’s groups both recognized the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s value and faced off over who would claim her.
• Lin Xuan arrived on his Flying Boat, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion leaped toward him, furious that he had not rescued her sooner.
• Ci Xue fired poison spikes at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Lin Xuan despite Qian Renxue’s warning.
• Lin Xuan vanished from the Flying Boat and appeared behind the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, destroying the incoming spikes with a palm strike.
• Lin Xuan struck Ci Xue with a golden handprint, sending him crashing through trees and carving a trench in the ground.

Lin Xuan rescued the Three-Eyed Golden Lion from Qian Renxue, Chen Xin, She Long, and Ci Xue, then threatened them after discovering they had tried to take her Soul Ring. As powerful Soul Beasts gathered around the clearing, Lin Xuan realized someone might have hidden their movements from his Blue Silver Domain.

• Lin Xuan struck Ci Xue with a palm and left him badly injured, then caught the Three-Eyed Golden Lion as the others watched in shock.
• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion cried to Lin Xuan and accused Qian Renxue, Chen Xin, She Long, and the others, and Lin Xuan promised to stand up for her.
• Lin Xuan refused Qian Renxue's offer of compensation and demanded that one of them take a palm strike or none would leave the Star Dou Great Forest.
• She Long sensed at least six powerful experts nearby, while Bear King and other Soul Beasts waited in ambush around the clearing.
• Lin Xuan sensed that many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts had suddenly gathered and wondered who had concealed their movements from his Blue Silver Domain.

Lin Xuan gave Chen Xin and the others a choice: endure one palm strike or try to escape on their own. After Chen Xin and She Long unleashed their full power against his Golden Dragon Shakes the Heavens, Qian Renxue shielded the group from the aftershock, but Lin Xuan had disappeared when the dust settled.

• Qian Renxue questioned Lin Xuan's ultimatum, but She Long urged her to stop and chose to take the strike.
• Chen Xin agreed to join forces with She Long, and both prepared their strongest attacks while Lin Xuan investigated the anomaly in his Blue Silver Domain.
• Lin Xuan unleashed Golden Dragon Shakes the Heavens, and Chen Xin and She Long spent all their strength on their ninth Soul Skills to block it.
• Qian Renxue used her Angel abilities to shield Chen Xin, She Long, and Ning Rongrong from the resulting shockwave, then collapsed near her limit.
• After the shockwave passed, Qian Renxue looked for Lin Xuan and found that he had vanished.

Lin Xuan encountered the Star Dou Great Forest’s Soul Beasts, learned that they were searching for the escaped Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, and promised to resolve the Soul Beasts’ Heavenly Tribulation problem. He left for Heaven Dou City while Sky Dream Ice Silkworm watched him from beneath the ground.

• Bear King questioned Lin Xuan about sparing their opponents, and Lin Xuan warned that one had a powerful grandfather who had fought beside him against the Demon Plane.
• Bi Ji asked about Di Tian, and Lin Xuan said Di Tian was digesting the corpse of a nine-hundred-ninety-thousand-year Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
• Scarlet King explained that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had escaped while the Soul Beasts searched for the missing Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and Lin Xuan used his Blue Silver Domain to infer how the silkworm had hidden from him.
• Bear King asked Lin Xuan to help find Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, but Lin Xuan declined and promised the Soul Beasts’ Heavenly Tribulation problem would be solved within ten thousand years.
• Bi Ji and some Soul Beasts withdrew, while Bear King continued the search; Lin Xuan left for Heaven Dou City, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm watched him from a crack in the ground before sealing it again.

Lin Xuan attended the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition with Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, where he discovered that Tang San had somehow returned from the dead. He reached the VIP seats while considering how to kill Tang San for good.

• Lin Xuan entered the VIP viewing area, where Salas, Ning Feng Zhi, and Gu Rong stood to greet him respectfully.
