Chapter Summaries

Ning Fengzhi chose to leave the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud’s divine opportunity untouched, while Spirit Hall conquered the continent and Wang Qi returned to a changed Heaven Dou City. After Wang Qi left for Suotuo City, Tang Xiao ordered an ambush to capture him and exploit his potion-making ability for the Clear Sky Sect.

• Ning Fengzhi told Chen Xin and Gu Rong that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud could lead to godhood, then decided the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could not control it and sent promising juniors to the Clear Sky Sect.
• Tang San still traveled to Sea God Island as the Spirit Hall Empire conquered the continent, crushed the Fallen Soul Masters’ counterattack, and restored peace with its Angel Legion.
• Wang Qi returned to Heaven Dou City, learned about its changes and the fates of Meng Shenji’s fellow Education Committee Members, and reunited with the Shi Mo brothers before leaving.
• Tang Xiao learned that Wang Qi had created a cultivation potion useful to Soul Masters at Soul Emperor rank and below, and ordered the Fifth Elder and Sixth Elder to help capture him at Changxing Ridge.

Tang Xiao ambushed Wang Qi at Changxing Ridge, hoping to capture or kill him before his talent and potion-making could threaten Clear Sky Sect. Wang Qi killed two elders and fought Tang Xiao with his newly perfected Blazing Heaven Palm, leaving their clash unresolved.

• Tang Xiao reflected on the danger Wang Qi posed to Clear Sky Sect and decided the ambush must capture him or kill him.

• Wang Qi taunted Tang Xiao into revealing himself, and Tang Xiao demanded that Wang Qi submit to Clear Sky Sect or die.
• Tang Xiao exploded his first seven soul rings to withstand Wang Qi's Blazing Heaven Palm, then exploded his eighth ring and struck back with his Clear Sky Hammer.
• Wang Qi's fiery tornado and Tang Xiao's Clear Sky Hammer collided in a massive explosion.

After his fight with Tang Xiao, Wang Qi learned that he ranked among the strongest on the continent, while Tang Xiao discovered that Wang Qi’s attack had damaged the spiritual reserves needed to rebuild his exploded soul rings. Three years later on Sea God Island, Tang San had reached the fourth divine trial and asked Ning Rongrong for news of Wang Qi, but she had found none.

• Wang Qi fought Tang Xiao at Changxing Ridge, but Tang Xiao used Exploding Ring to suppress him, injured him, and escaped.

• Tang Xiao went to Moonlight Pavilion and learned that Wang Qi’s Holy Heart Golden Flame had damaged the spiritual reserves needed to restore his soul rings, leaving him furious and facing a difficult recovery.
• Three years after arriving on Sea God Island, Tang San and Jin Lang discussed their rapid cultivation; Tang San had reached Soul Saint with eight soul rings and was approaching Titled Douluo cultivation.
• Tang San asked Ning Rongrong about Wang Qi’s whereabouts and suggested he take the Sea God Assessment, but Ning Rongrong said she had found no news and expected Sword Grandpa in ten days.

Wang Qi encountered Xiao Wu in Suotuo City and discovered she had received a divine trial, while the Fire God Heart offered to help him seize her divine inheritance. Elsewhere, Hu Liena struggled to control her restlessness while managing the empire, Bibi Dong suffered a setback in her Rakshasa trials, and Qian Renxue advanced to the seventh Angel God trial.

• Wang Qi noticed Suotuo City's rapid growth and reflected on the Spirit Hall Empire's new order and Bibi Dong's likely conflict with Spirit Hall.
• Wang Qi recognized Xiao Wu, saw the Deity Inheritance mark on her forehead, and learned from the Fire God Heart that she had accepted a Second-Class God's trial alongside Lan Xiaoyue.
• Wang Qi declined the Fire God Heart's offer to seize Xiao Wu's divine inheritance and decided to return to the Extreme North to continue his own trials.
• Xiao Wu briefly felt familiar with Wang Qi's departing figure, then followed Lan Xiaoyue to browse a jewelry stall after the two left Slaughter City to travel during their divine trials.
• Hu Liena struggled to suppress her killing intent while handling the empire's affairs, and Bibi Dong's cultivation fell to Limit Douluo level after the Rakshasa God Statue suppressed her.
• Qian Renxue completed the sixth Angel God trial and reached the seventh after three years of rapid progress.

After returning from five years in the Fire God Inheritance Ground, Wang Qi reunited with Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan in Spirit City, discussed his plans for cultivation and future godly trials, and spent the following months preparing to return. The chapter ended with Ye Lingling reaching the Soul Saint realm and asking Wang Qi when they would leave for the inheritance ground.

• Wang Qi reunited with Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, heard about their life in Spirit City, and told them he planned to keep cultivating outside before focusing on godly trials.
• Wang Qi discussed taking Dugu Yan to the Fire God Inheritance Ground and planned to bring Huo Wu there on his next return.
• Wang Qi gave Ye Lingling cultivation resources, visited the Five Elements Academy, and agreed to take Huo Wu to the inheritance ground.
• Wang Qi continued cultivating in Spirit City, unaware that the opportunity for godhood had not spread beyond the people he had told.
• Ye Lingling reached the Soul Saint realm in less than a year and asked Wang Qi when they would leave.

Ye Lingling took Wang Qi into the Ye Family’s hidden vault, where she fused her Nine Star Begonia Martial Soul with a dark counterpart and knocked him unconscious. After waking, Wang Qi discovered a Chaos Godhead that could perfect and evolve Martial Souls, then decided to cultivate in the vault and prepare Soul Rings for his Medicine Refining Furnace Martial Soul.

• Ye Lingling showed Wang Qi the hidden vault inside the Undying Sect Ruins and explained its chambers and treasures.
• Ye Lingling entered the eleventh chamber and fused her Nine Star Begonia Martial Soul with the Dark Nine Star Begonia, causing Wang Qi to lose consciousness.
• Wang Qi woke in a nearby room, checked his belongings and condition, and sensed residual divine power.
• The Fire God Heart revealed that the chamber contained a Chaos Godhead capable of repairing and evolving Martial Souls and explained how divine artifacts and Martial Souls related to godhood.
• Wang Qi collected the available treasures, chose the vault for secluded cultivation, and prepared to add Soul Rings to his Medicine Refining Furnace Martial Soul.

After absorbing the Chaos Godhead, Wang Qi’s Medicine Refining Furnace evolved into a divine artifact that could fuse and sublimate medicinal properties. He completed its traits, broke through to level 98, and prepared to return to the Worship Hall to trade for a fire-attribute soul bone.

• Wang Qi discovered that his evolved Medicine Refining Furnace revealed how its medicines repaired lost potential rather than simply increasing cultivation, and that it could now transform resources into divine treasures.
• He used the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and Lovesick Heartbreak Red to fill the furnace’s final two trait slots, refined nine supreme treasure pills, and completed all nine traits.
• Completing the traits pushed Wang Qi past level ninety to Titled Douluo, while his cultivation rose to level 98 and his Spiritual Power reached the peak of the Spiritual Domain Realm.
• Wang Qi examined the nine pills, which could renew the body and greatly accelerate cultivation, and considered trading one to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
• Wang Qi reviewed his soul bones and decided to seek a high-year fire-attribute left arm bone from Spirit Hall in exchange for his Hundred-Thousand-Year healing-type left arm bone before visiting the Five Elements Academy.

Wang Qi left Spirit City with Huo Wu and Dugu Yan, while the chapter revealed the consequences of Ye Lingling’s sacrifice and the Undying Sect’s plans for the Nine Star Begonia Martial Soul. Bibi Dong and Ning Rongrong began noticing cracks in the world’s apparent fate, leaving the story poised for an awakening.

• Wang Qi accepted a hundred-thousand-year fire-attribute left arm bone from Qian Daoliu, then flew from Spirit City to collect Huo Wu and Dugu Yan and head north.
• Ye Lingling cared for her infant in an isolated territory and told an elderly woman that she regretted bringing the child into the world, though she did not regret her sacrifice.
• The Undying Sect celebrated the creation of new Nine Star Begonia awakeners and planned to test whether the transformed Martial Soul could be inherited.
• Bibi Dong watched Wang Qi depart and questioned why her former feelings for Yu Xiaogang had faded, beginning to suspect that the world and its struggles might be arranged.
• Ning Rongrong told two companions on Sea God Island that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and their journey there seemed to have made them tools for Tang San.
• The chapter concluded that Wang Qi’s arrival had disrupted fate repeatedly and likened the discovery of a fallen star-like chandelier to the beginning of an awakening.

Rakshasa used his share of reserve divine power to interfere with the Douluo Plane, widening the rift with Asura while the Sea God kept the alliance from breaking apart. Three years later, Wang Qi reached Rank 99 in the Fire God Inheritance Ground and began planning for Huo Wu and Dugu Yan’s Ninth Soul Rings.

• Rakshasa sent strands of reserve divine power to the Douluo Plane, and Asura confronted him over using the alliance’s resources.
• The Sea God defended Rakshasa’s use of the power, then led Asura away by demanding compensation for resources spent restoring Tang San’s Martial Soul origin.
• The Sea God watched the trials on Sea God Island and wondered about Wang Qi, who had suppressed the artificially created Child of Luck without luck’s blessing.
• Wang Qi cultivated for three years in the Fire God Inheritance Ground while Huo Wu and Dugu Yan advanced through their trials; Huo Wu reached Soul Douluo-level cultivation.
• Wang Qi broke through to Rank 99, submitted his fifth god trial, and began helping Dugu Yan and Huo Wu plan their Ninth Soul Rings.

Wang Qi studied the Jade Fire Beast’s transformation toward godhood as he sought a path to advance his own power, while the Fire God reconsidered his plan to sabotage Wang Qi’s trials. Bibi Dong gained a Pseudo-Divine Seat through her Rakshasa inheritance, and Qian Renxue faced the dark half of herself in the Angel Temple.

• Wang Qi concluded that observing the Jade Fire Beast’s transformation from Soul Power into divine power might reveal how to advance his own body, Soul Power, and Spiritual Power.
• Wang Qi noted that the Jade Fire Beast had reached 980,000 years of cultivation and was transforming during its increasingly frequent sleep.
• The Fire God watched Wang Qi and the Jade Fire Beast, wavering between denying Wang Qi his Divine Seat and granting it if he became unstoppable.
• Bibi Dong used her demigod power to strike the Rakshasa God during her ninth trial, and the Rakshasa God’s scheme gave Bibi Dong a Pseudo-Divine Seat.
• Bibi Dong sensed a great terror in the Worship Hall and decided she might need to become a god before investigating it.
• Dark Qian Renxue tried to provoke Qian Renxue by invoking her buried desires and resentment toward her mother, but Qian Renxue remained unmoved.

Wang Qi brought Dugu Yan and Huo Wu into the Star Dou Great Forest’s Core Zone, where Dugu Yan began absorbing a hundred-thousand-year Poison Flood Dragon. Nearby, Xiao Wu fought the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger as Clear Sky Sect elders plotted to exploit the battle, leaving Xiao Wu injured and aware that someone was watching.

• Wang Qi offered Dugu Yan the Poison Flood Dragon as her Ninth Soul Ring, and she used his Short Blade to kill it and begin absorbing its ring.
• Wang Qi sensed Xiao Wu and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger fighting and realized the tiger might have caused the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape to disappear.
• Xiao Wu, now at level ninety-seven, battled the seventy-thousand-year Dark Demon Evil God Tiger with Lan Xiaoyue supporting her.
• The Clear Sky Sect’s Second Elder and Third Elder saw Xiao Wu’s fight and killed the three disciples accompanying them so they could pursue the chance to seize a divine inheritance.
• Xiao Wu spat blood and asked Lan Xiaoyue whether they should keep fighting after sensing someone watching from the shadows.

Xiao Wu defeated the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger’s ambush and killed the Clear Sky Sect’s Third Elder and Second Elder. Afterward, she entered deep meditation under divine protection while the Twin Gods sought help from a fellow god.

• The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger dodged the Clear Sky Sect elders’ ambush as Xiao Wu used her Slow Domain and Lightning Slurry against the Third Elder.
• Xiao Wu used Charm, Teleportation, and Eight-Stage Kill Slam to crush the Third Elder, while the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger fled into the forest.
• The Second Elder attacked Xiao Wu with his Mirror Image, but Xiao Wu survived with Invincible Golden Body and countered with Lan Xiaoyue’s support.
• Xiao Wu and Lan Xiaoyue exchanged positions, brought down the Second Elder, and killed him with a dark-blue dagger.
• Xiao Wu sensed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, Dugu Yan, Huo Wu, and a nearby Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast before entering deep meditation behind a divine barrier.
• The Twin Gods realized Xiao Wu was protected, then left their temple to visit a fellow Second-Class God.

Dai Weisi gathered Star Luo loyalists and Wusheng to plan the empire’s restoration by drawing the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall into conflict. Meanwhile, Wang Qi froze the Flame Lord so he could raise it to a hundred thousand years for Huo Wu’s Ninth Soul Ring.

• Dai Weisi met with Wusheng and four Star Luo generals, who agreed to work with the Fallen Soul Masters against Spirit Hall.
• General Duolong warned that the Star Luo forces were too weak to attack the Spirit Hall Empire directly.
• Dai Weisi proposed winning over the Clear Sky Sect and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and building strength through Soul Master academies, though Wusheng judged that the Clear Sky Sect could not bring Spirit Hall to mutual destruction.
• Dai Weisi planned to visit the Great Soul Arena to recruit another strong force.
• Wang Qi froze the Flame Lord in the Star Dou Great Forest and said he would refine pills to raise its cultivation enough for Huo Wu to obtain its Soul Ring.

Spirit Hall destroyed the Clear Sky Sect, and Xiao Wu later tried to kill Bibi Dong but was stopped by the Two Extremes Stillness Domain. Tang San arrived with the Sea Cucumber Trident to save Xiao Wu as Bibi Dong fought him, while Qian Renxue sensed the Angel God’s aura from Bibi Dong and asked Wang Qi whether he would choose his grandfather or his Divine Seat.

• Tang San descended and used Unfixed Waves to break the domain and shatter Bibi Dong's attack, then fought her with the Sea Cucumber Trident.
• Qian Renxue sensed the Angel God’s aura from Bibi Dong, and later asked Wang Qi whether he would choose his grandfather or his Divine Seat.

Wang Qi helped Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu find a way to begin the Angel God's Ninth Trial without a sacrifice, then returned to the Fire God Inheritance Ground as the Jade Fire Beast sacrificed itself. The sacrifice began transforming Wang Qi's Soul Power into divine power and revealed the limit of ordinary Soul Rings, while he suspected his own God-Level Soul Rings were exceptional.

• Wang Qi learned that Qian Daoliu might need to sacrifice himself to initiate the Angel God's Ninth Trial and offered the Divine Altar's Soul Power crystals as an alternative.
• Tang San used Exploding Ring to escape Bibi Dong, who then decided it was time to complete the Ninth Divine Trial.
• Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu agreed to let Wang Qi use the Divine Altar and enter the Angel Temple in exchange for his help strengthening their foundations.
• Wang Qi learned that Dugu Yan had begun the Water God Nine Trials and Huo Wu had accepted the Magma God Nine Trials, then discovered that Spirit Hall had destroyed the Clear Sky Sect under Xiao Wu's leadership.
• Wang Qi returned to the Fire God Inheritance Ground, where the Jade Fire Beast sacrificed itself and a divine transformation began within him.
• Wang Qi sensed the first divine power forming in his body, gathered ten units of the Fire God Inheritance Ground's remaining divine power, and concluded that his God-Level Soul Rings might be unlike ordinary ones.

After completing the Fire God Sixth Trial, Wang Qi examined his transformed abilities and learned that his growth had made it difficult for the Fire God to reward him safely. The Fire God asked him to choose a different reward and warned him not to reach Level 100 before completing the remaining trials.

• Wang Qi inspected his new Attribute Panel and discovered that his divine-grade Right Arm Bone left a flaw in his Soul Bone Armor, which he could fix by strengthening his External Soul Bone or all his Soul Bones.
• Wang Qi stored the Jade Fire Beast’s rebirth seed and realized its soul remained inside the Right Arm Bone, so he ordered the Jade Fire Beast to stay quiet and sleep.
• Wang Qi used Adaptation as protection against the risk of being assimilated by laws and found that divine-grade Ice Fire Affinity let him draw slightly on the Fire God’s authority.
• After Wang Qi submitted the Fire God Sixth Trial, the Fire God sent a projection to the Fire God Temple because he could not decide on a reward without risking Wang Qi’s premature breakthrough.
• The Fire God explained that Wang Qi still had three trials left and asked him to avoid reaching Level 100 before completing them; when Wang Qi requested divine power, the Fire God refused and asked him to choose something else.

Wang Qi upgraded the Medicine Refining Furnace and returned from the Fire God Inheritance Ground to find the Douluo Continent engulfed in divine war. After hearing the latest developments, he went to Qian Renxue to begin another period of seclusion.

• Wang Qi traded rewards from the seventh and eighth divine trials for materials that upgraded the Medicine Refining Furnace into a third-grade divine artifact.
• Wang Qi left the Fire God Inheritance Ground, briefly greeted the Heavenly Snow Woman, and flew to Spirit City.
• Dugu Bo told Wang Qi that Bibi Dong had killed Wusheng, insect swarms had devastated cities, and Tang San and Xiao Wu had led resistance against the Spirit Hall Empire.
• Qian Renxue became the Angel God and fought Tang San and Xiao Wu, while Yu Xiaogang emerged with the Asura God Sword and died; Tang San and Xiao Wu then disappeared.
• Wang Qi decided the continent's conflict was not his immediate concern, found Qian Renxue, and began secluding himself at the Angel Temple.

Rakshasa God separated her Divine Seat from the God Realm while Asura God passed down his own and weakened the seal on the Golden Dragon King, forcing the God Kings to intervene. A year later, Qian Renxue questioned Wang Qi about his growing strength as he reflected on what he had learned from the Fire God Heart.

• Rakshasa God separated the Rakshasa Divine Seat from the God Realm, and Asura God passed down his Divine Seat as a Godfall phenomenon shook the realm.
• Destruction God King told Life Goddess what Rakshasa had done, then sensed Asura's involvement in a spatial transmission and a disturbance at the Lock Dragon Platform.
• The Golden Dragon King roared as Asura's scheme opened a crack in the Lock Dragon Platform's seal, and Destruction, Life, Kindness, and Evil joined forces to contain him.
• A year after the God War began, Qian Renxue visited Wang Qi in the Angel Temple and wondered how a Titled Douluo could make her feel threatened.
• Wang Qi recalled that the Fire God Heart had helped him develop his strength after revealing its past as an exiled Fire God who pursued artificial gods and Soul Tool research.

Wang Qi fought Fire God in a supposedly fair trial space, learning to adapt to Divine Fire as they battled. He unleashed his new technique, All Things Return to Ash, defeated Fire God, and left the trial as Fire God crumbled into ashes.

• Wang Qi ignored Fire God's explanation and attacked, then used their exchange to study Fire God's control of Divine Fire.
• Fire God filled the space with flames and struck Wang Qi with Divine Fire, causing twelve pillars of flame to erupt from his body.
• Wang Qi adapted to Divine Fire, activated his talents, and healed his wounds with blue-green flames.
• Fire God used Divine Fire—Heartfire, but Wang Qi's Divine Soul possession let him ignite the entire space and draw its flames into his palm.
• Wang Qi struck Fire God with All Things Return to Ash, and Fire God turned to dust as the gateway to Wang Qi's victory opened.

Wang Qi obtained the Fire God's Divine Seat and headed to the Extreme North as Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue began their divine battle. Meanwhile, Tang San completed his Asura inheritance, but Asura God seized Xiao Wu and Lan Xiaoyue, leaving Tang San newly empowered and intent on revenge.

• Wang Qi fused the Fire God's power into the Ice Fire Divine Armor and shot toward the Extreme North, prompting Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue to clash in the sky.
• Tang San completed the Asura God's Eighth Examination, destroyed Slaughter City with the Asura God Sword, and prepared for the Ninth Examination.
• Xiao Wu and Lan Xiaoyue discussed their failed attempts to gain additional Divine Seats while watching Tang San return to the Asura Temple.
• Asura God removed the Asura Temple from the Douluo Plane, sealed Lan Xiaoyue, and forced the Asura examinations onto Xiao Wu before entering Tang San's body.
• Tang San broke free of the Ninth Examination's illusion, regained the Asura God Sword, and inherited the Asura God's Divine Seat with revenge still his priority.
