Electrolux used the Ice God Pearl and the Ice Empress's Soul Power to suppress the Snow Empress's burning source power, surprising Sea God Tang San with how much Electrolux had recovered.

After completing the Spirit Pagoda agreement in the Sun Moon Empire, Huo Yuhao and his companions flew toward Star Luo through the Mingdou Mountain Range. A Title Douluo ambushed them, and Huo Yuhao confronted the attacker alone, recognizing him as the Scorpion Tiger Douluo.

• Jing Hongchen left the academy's repairs to Lin Jiayi and resumed work on the Spirit Pagoda cooperation with Huo Yuhao.
• Huo Yuhao's group left the Ming Capital and flew north, stopping at the Mingdou Mountain Range after the Sun Moon Empire's escorts turned back.
• Huo Yuhao sensed an ambush and called out the hidden enemy, who appeared as a mass of dark clouds shaped like a tiger's head.
• Huo Yuhao told his companions that no Title Douluo was secretly protecting them, then flew alone into the clouds despite Wang Dong'er's attempt to support him.
• Inside the clouds, Huo Yuhao found a hunched elder and identified him as the Scorpion Tiger Douluo.

Huo Yuhao met Zhang Peng, the Holy Spirit Cult's Sixth Consecrator, and learned that the cult wanted to take him for information about the Spirit Pagoda's Spirit Souls. When Huo Yuhao refused, Zhang Peng transformed into his Martial Soul Avatar and prepared to force him to comply.

• Huo Yuhao fired an Extreme Cold Ray that froze Zhang Peng’s Twelve Beast Envoys and shattered his Scorpion Tiger Avatar.
• The Extreme Cold Ray struck Zhang Peng and encased him in a thick layer of ice.

Huo Yuhao defeated Zhang Peng with Ultimate Ice and continued toward the Star Luo Empire with his companions. After escaping the ice, Zhang Peng encountered a powerful cloaked Evil Soul Master whose identity he did not recognize.

• Huo Yuhao froze Zhang Peng with an Ultimate Ice ray, then returned to Wang Dong'er and the others and led them toward the Star Luo Empire.
• Zhang Peng broke free from the ice and abandoned his pursuit after realizing he could not defeat Huo Yuhao.
• A cloaked figure with burning golden pupils appeared in the forest, and Zhang Peng sensed that the stranger was a powerful Evil Soul Master.
• Zhang Peng wondered whether the Holy Spirit Cult had sent the stranger to meet him, but he had never seen the figure before.

Yun Ming disguised as a Lich persuaded Zhang Peng to bring him into the Holy Spirit Cult, giving him a chance to infiltrate it. After returning to the Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao learned that he would have to wait a month to claim the Spirit Pagoda's top-ranked Soul Spirit, the three-hundred-thousand-year Phantom Heart Demon Spider.

• Yun Ming concealed his identity and told Zhang Peng he was an unaffiliated Evil Soul Master who had never heard of the Holy Spirit Cult.
• Zhang Peng invited Yun Ming to join the Holy Spirit Cult, hoping the powerful newcomer would improve his own standing, and Yun Ming agreed to go with him.

• Huo Yuhao agreed to wait a month for the conference before fusing with the Phantom Heart Demon Spider.

At the Spirit Pagoda Meeting, Qiangu Dongfeng nominated his grandson Qiangu Zhangting for the vacant Spirit Envoy position, while Leng Yaozhu countered by nominating her disciple Huo Yuhao. Leng Yaozhu cited a charter clause allowing exceptional promotion for major contributions and prepared to explain Huo Yuhao’s case.

• Qiangu Dongfeng proposed Qiangu Zhangting for the vacant Spirit Envoy position at the annual meeting.

• Qiangu Dongfeng revealed that Qiangu Zhangting had recently reached Title Douluo under the Old Tower Master's guidance, shifting support toward his nomination.
• Leng Yaozhu nominated Huo Yuhao and cited the charter clause allowing Spirit Envoys to be exceptionally promoted for major contributions.
• Zhang Geyang challenged Leng Yaozhu to explain Huo Yuhao's contributions, and she prepared to present her case.

Leng Yaozhu presented the Spirit Pagoda council with Huo Yuhao’s Inheritance Soul Spirit Technology, which could separate Spirit Souls from Soul Masters and allow them to be inherited. The breakthrough stunned the council and threatened Qiangu Dongfeng’s plans, but Da Mo warned that it could weaken the Spirit Pagoda’s business and influence.

• Leng Yaozhu distributed documents describing Huo Yuhao’s Inheritance Soul Spirit Technology and asked the council to read them.
• Xu Shengqun questioned whether the technology was real, and Leng Yaozhu confirmed that Huo Yuhao had developed and tested it over several years.
• The council learned that the technology could separate Spirit Souls and allow them to fuse with new Soul Masters, making them inheritable rather than one-time resources.
• Qiangu Dongfeng realized the breakthrough strengthened Huo Yuhao’s position against Qiangu Zhangting and secretly sent a message to Da Mo.
• Da Mo argued that inherited Spirit Souls could reduce Soul Masters’ dependence on the Spirit Pagoda and damage its business, revenue, and influence.

At the Spirit Pagoda’s annual meeting, Leng Yaozhu countered Qiangu Dongfeng’s objections by unveiling Soul Spirit inheritance technology and announcing that artificial Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirits had already been created. She called for a vote to appoint Huo Yuhao as Spirit Envoy and Gu Yue as reserve Spirit Envoy, and twenty-five Councilors raised their hands in support.

• Leng Yaozhu rebutted Da Mo’s argument, explaining that the Spirit Pagoda controlled Soul Spirit inheritance and that the technology could conserve Soul Spirit resources and strengthen the Pagoda’s standing.
• Qiangu Dongfeng argued that artificial Soul Spirit technology could address the decline in Soul Spirits by producing increasingly powerful Soul Spirits.
• Leng Yaozhu proposed Gu Yue as a reserve Spirit Envoy, but Qiangu Dongfeng objected and demanded strict scrutiny of the appointment.
• Leng Yaozhu announced that artificial Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirits had already been achieved, shocking the Councilors and undermining Qiangu Dongfeng’s plans.
• Leng Yaozhu called for a vote to appoint Huo Yuhao as Spirit Envoy and Gu Yue as reserve Spirit Envoy, and all twenty-five Councilors outside the Qiangu Lineage raised their hands.

• Leng Yaozhu won approval for the Spirit Pagoda’s new research measures and the transfer of the Phantom Heart Demon Spider to Huo Yuhao, while Qiangu Dongfeng stayed silent.
• After the meeting, Qiangu Dongfeng denied involvement in the attack on Huo Yuhao in Star Luo, but Leng Yaozhu dismissed his explanation and left.
• The following morning, Leng Yaozhu and Huo Yuhao entered the Soul Spirit Fusion Chamber, where she personally prepared to oversee his fusion.
• Leng Yaozhu opened the storage device and revealed the small, crystal-clear Phantom Heart Demon Spider, warning Huo Yuhao not to mistake its appearance for harmlessness.

Huo Yuhao met the three-hundred-thousand-year Phantom Heart Demon Spider, whose powerful mind let it live in a virtual world and whose sleepy demeanor concealed its status as the Spirit Pagoda’s foremost Indomitable Soul Spirit. It refused to become Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirit even after sensing his Spirit Domain Realm Mental Power.

• Huo Yuhao learned from Leng Yaozhu that the Phantom Heart Demon Spider could create a virtual world for its consciousness and had been awakened from its long slumber.
• The Phantom Heart Demon Spider woke, complained in a childish boy’s voice, and showed no aggression toward Huo Yuhao.
• Leng Yaozhu introduced Huo Yuhao and praised his talent, but the Phantom Heart Demon Spider sensed his Spirit Sea and said it would not become anyone’s Soul Spirit.
• Huo Yuhao released his full Spirit Domain Realm Mental Power, surprising the Phantom Heart Demon Spider, which maintained its refusal and said it preferred its own world to a human lifespan.

Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirits convinced the Phantom Heart Demon Spider that joining him could bring immortality, and it agreed to become his Soul Spirit. Far away, Na'er finished fighting Evil Soul Masters and decided to avoid Soul Trains on her journey to Heaven Dou City.

• Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirits appeared before the Phantom Heart Demon Spider, which was especially shaken by Ice Empress and Snow Empress’s power.
• Ice Empress explained that she and Snow Empress had become Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirits to gain immortality when he became a god.
• The Phantom Heart Demon Spider abandoned its refusal to merge with a Soul Master and agreed to become Huo Yuhao’s Soul Spirit.
• Na'er and Sima Jinchi defeated the Evil Soul Masters who had attacked their Soul Train, leaving the train wrecked.
• Sima Jinchi suggested taking another Soul Train from Tian Nan City, but Na'er chose to rent a car after recalling Xie Xie’s warning.

Na'er traveled to Heaven Dou City while considering Di Tian's warning that Huo Yuhao was the Spirit Ice Douluo and a threat to the Soul Beasts' revival plans. She reunited with Ya Li, who was grieving Yun Ming's death but said she would stay to watch Na'er grow up.

• Na'er learned from Di Tian that Huo Yuhao was the Spirit Ice Douluo and agreed that he should be eliminated as a threat to their plans.
• After arriving in Heaven Dou City, Na'er met briefly with Tang Wulin and the others at the Tang Sect.
• Xu Xiaoyan led Na'er to Ya Li's room the next morning.
• Na'er saw Ya Li's silver-white hair and embraced her, grieving the change in the woman who had cared for her.
• Ya Li told Na'er she might have followed Yun Ming in death if Na'er were not still there, and said she wanted to watch Na'er grow up as Ming-ge had wished.

Na'er and Ya Li met with Long Yeyue at the Tang Sect, where Long Yeyue declared her intention to rebuild Shrek Academy despite Zang Xin’s concerns. Long Yeyue saw Na'er’s strength as hope for the academy’s future.

• Na'er shared stories from her time in the Blood God Legion with Ya Li until Xie Xie arrived to announce Long Yeyue’s visit.
• Na'er and Ya Li joined Tang Wulin, Xu Xiaoyan, Xie Xie, Zang Xin, and Long Yeyue in the reception room.
• Long Yeyue insisted that Shrek Academy still existed in the hearts of its graduates and the Federation, despite the destruction of its grounds.
• Long Yeyue announced that she intended to rebuild Shrek Academy, and Zang Xin warned that the timing might be too soon.
• Long Yeyue said she had little time left and wanted to see Shrek rebuilt before her death, then regarded Na'er as a source of hope for its future.

Long Yeyue gave the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal, an ancient treasure tied to Tang San and the God Realm, to Na'er and explained why she had saved it during Shrek Academy's destruction. Tang Wulin felt an inexplicable pull toward the crystal, and Old Tang urgently demanded that he claim it, ending with a threat to act himself.

• Long Yeyue showed everyone the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal and explained its origins and significance to Shrek Academy.
• Long Yeyue admitted she had abandoned Yun Ming and the academy during the attack to retrieve the crystal, then entrusted it to Na'er.
• Na'er accepted the crystal and reconsidered using Shrek Academy's legacy and treasures for her plans.
• Tang Wulin felt familiar with the crystal and struggled to suppress his desire to take it.
• Old Tang recognized the crystal as the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and ordered Tang Wulin to press it against his forehead, then said he would do it himself if Tang Wulin refused.

The Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal flew from Na'er and fused with Tang Wulin, though Old Tang had taken control of his body and Tang Wulin could not explain what happened. Long Yeyue accused him of stealing Shrek Academy's treasure, then turned on Zang Xin and accused the Tang Sect of plotting to seize Shrek's foundation.

• The Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal flew from Na'er's hand and merged into Tang Wulin's forehead, after which he regained control of his body.
• Long Yeyue confronted Tang Wulin and threatened to suppress and kill him for seizing Shrek Academy's treasured artifact.
• Zang Xin pointed out that Tang Wulin had shown no Soul Power fluctuation and suggested the crystal had chosen him.
• Long Yeyue accused Zang Xin of defending his disciple and claimed the Tang Sect was trying to take Shrek's foundation.
• Zang Xin objected that the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy had always supported each other, but Long Yeyue insisted the Tang Sect had developed its own ambitions.

Long Yeyue demanded that Tang Wulin return the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal, but he said he could not sense it after it fused with him. She then tried to recruit Na'er and Ya Li to help rebuild Shrek Academy, but Ya Li refused, leaving Long Yeyue to depart with Na'er.

• Tang Wulin told Zang Xin that he did not know what had happened to the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal and concealed Old Tang's existence.
• Zang Xin promised Long Yeyue that Tang Wulin would return the crystal to Na'er once he could control it, and Long Yeyue reluctantly agreed to wait.
• Long Yeyue asked Na'er to return to Shrek Academy, and Na'er agreed.
• Long Yeyue summoned Ya Li to help rebuild Shrek, but Ya Li refused, saying her heart had died with Yun Ming.
• Ya Li reminded Long Yeyue that she had originally belonged to the War God Hall, and Long Yeyue left with Na'er without addressing Ya Li again.

After Na'er returned with Long Yeyue to the hidden survivors beneath Shrek City, she contacted Di Tian to ask about Gu Yue and Huo Yuhao. Tang Wulin wondered about Old Tang and Shrek's future while Zang Xin explained the obstacles to rebuilding the academy.

• Na'er left the reception room after Ya Li urged her not to let Yun Ming's disciple identity bind her, and Zang Xin told Tang Wulin that he believed him.
• Zang Xin described the support and opposition Shrek would face in rebuilding, and told Tang Wulin to notify him when he contacted the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal.
• Long Yeyue brought Na'er and Sima Jinchi to Shrek City's underground shelter, where surviving students continued to cultivate in secret.
• Na'er settled into her small room beneath Shrek City and called Di Tian to ask about Gu Yue's situation.
• Di Tian reported that Gu Yue's work on artificial Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Souls had raised her standing in the Spirit Pagoda, and Na'er then asked about Huo Yuhao.

Na'er and Di Tian discussed how to kill Huo Yuhao before his cultivation advanced further, despite Gu Yue’s mark preventing Di Tian from attacking him directly. Na'er devised a plan to enlist Da Ming and Er Ming by misleading them about Huo Yuhao’s identity, and Di Tian agreed to approach them.

• Di Tian told Na'er that Huo Yuhao had reached Spirit Douluo and that Xiong Jun had gone to Shrek City to attack him.
• Na'er worried that Shrek City’s defenses would thwart a quick kill and learned that Huo Yuhao was likely to remain at the Spirit Pagoda.
• Na'er proposed asking Da Ming and Er Ming to help, framing Huo Yuhao as Spirit Ice’s descendant and a betrayal of Tang San.
• Di Tian accepted Na'er's reasoning and said he would speak with Da Ming and Er Ming.
• After ending the call, Na'er lay back, pleased with her clever plan.
