Chapter Summaries

Lin Li and Qian Renxue formed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill that let them merge and summon Mahoraga without being attacked. After discovering its strength and sharing an embarrassing mind-to-mind moment, they agreed to call the skill “Six-Winged God Mahoraga.”

• Lin Li agreed to cooperate with Qian Renxue and suggested they try a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• Lin Li and Qian Renxue fused into a six-winged form, while a small Dharma Wheel appeared and Mahoraga stood nearby without attacking.
• Lin Li realized Qian Renxue could hear his thoughts, including his speculation that Mahoraga spared them because she was beautiful, and canceled the fusion in embarrassment.
• Qian Renxue said the fusion greatly increased her attributes and Holy Attribute and let Mahoraga fight alongside them.
• Lin Li proposed naming the skill “Angel and Demon,” but Qian Renxue rejected it and named it “Six-Winged God Mahoraga.”

Lin Li adapted to a God-Given Soul Ring until it became a hundred-thousand-year ring, then tested its Mahoraga Projection skill against the Fire God. The Fire God attacked with a sea of flames as Lin Li protected himself with his External Soul Bone.

• Lin Li realized he could adapt to Soul Ring pressure and began absorbing the Fire God's God-Given Soul Ring.
• Lin Li adapted repeatedly, raising his Fourth Soul Ring to a hundred-thousand-year ring while Qian Renxue and the Fire God watched in astonishment.
• Lin Li gained a skill that increased all his attributes by one hundred percent and a second skill called Mahoraga Projection.
• Lin Li used Mahoraga Projection on the Fire God, creating a Dharma Wheel behind him that began to turn and weaken him.
• The Fire God attacked Lin Li with a massive wave of flames, and Lin Li covered himself with golden scales from his External Soul Bone.

Lin Li battled the Fire God in the Fire God Temple, where Mahoraga Projection suppressed the god’s cultivation and helped Lin Li improve his fighting skills. After they ended the exhausting match, Lin Li and Xue Qinghe teleported away, and she gave him a book about Immortal Herbs to begin their first deal.

• Lin Li used his Ice and Fire abilities against the Fire God, whose elemental transformation let him escape Lin Li’s soul-burning attack.
• Lin Li explained that Mahoraga Projection attached a Dharma Wheel that suppressed the Fire God’s cultivation, and the two resumed their battle.
• As the fight continued for hours, Lin Li adapted his combat techniques while Qian Renxue watched; the contest eventually became a clash of physical strength.
• Lin Li ended the battle and teleported away with Qian Renxue, who had returned to the appearance of Xue Qinghe.
• Lin Li asked Xue Qinghe about her plans, and she said she would lie low and improve her strength before handing him a book about Immortal Herbs for their first deal.

Lin Li and Xue Qinghe spent the afternoon walking through Heaven Dou City, sharing a meal and talking about ordinary life. While waiting for a second bowl of noodles, Lin Li spotted the injured Bai Ye heading toward the Ye Family’s Nine Hearts Begonia medical clinic.

• Xue Qinghe dismissed the Royal Guards and accompanied Lin Li on a walk through Heaven Dou City.
• Lin Li took Xue Qinghe to Yi Zhao Xian, where they ordered the restaurant’s specialty, Warmth of Three Winters.
• Lin Li reflected on his growing ties to the world and told Xue Qinghe about the places he had visited; Xue Qinghe proposed that they spend more time together, and Lin Li agreed.
• Lin Li watched Bai Ye hurry through the street and noticed that he appeared injured.
• Xue Qinghe explained that Bai Ye was headed toward the Ye Family’s Nine Hearts Begonia medical clinic.

Lin Li considered seeking out the Ye Family Head to learn about the Nine Hearts Begonia’s restriction and weighed the Immortal Herb that might help Dugu Bo’s poison. He reflected on his ties to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Ning Rongrong, then arrived at Renxin Hall and was mistaken for someone trying to recruit the Ye Family Head.

• Lin Li reasoned that meeting a Nine Hearts Begonia wielder could help him understand the Martial Soul’s restriction and decided to visit the Ye Family.
• Lin Li read the Immortal Herb Compendium and found that the Earth Dragon Golden Melon might help Dugu Yan’s Jade Green Snake Martial Soul, though he had no answer about how to resolve Dugu Bo’s poison.
• After Xue Qinghe returned to the imperial palace, Lin Li went to East Street and thought through his dependence on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and his difficulty rejecting Ning Rongrong.
• Lin Li reached Renxin Hall and asked its apprentice for an appointment with the Ye Family Head.
• The apprentice assumed Lin Li had come to recruit the Ye Family Head and told him to leave.

Lin Li visited Renxin Hall to meet the Ye Family Head and discuss the Nine Hearts Begonia Martial Soul. Ye Renxin revealed his history with Dugu Bo and remained skeptical that Lin Li could solve the Ye Family’s Martial Soul problem.

• The apprentice recognized Lin Li as the famous Yi Zhao Xian, agreed to bring him to Ye Renxin, and asked him for an autograph.
• While waiting, Lin Li read the Immortal Herb Compendium and learned about herbs that could strengthen the body and improve Mental Power.
• Ye Renxin introduced himself to Lin Li and recalled how he had treated Dugu Bo’s poisoned son, who eventually died.
• Lin Li explained that he wanted to examine the Nine Hearts Begonia and might be able to resolve its defect.
• Ye Renxin warned Lin Li not to deceive him if he could not solve the problem, and Lin Li agreed.

Lin Li discovered that the Nine Hearts Begonia was restricted by a law of Heaven and Earth, not weakened by an inherent flaw, and tried to use divine power to provoke that law. As his Ice and Fire Divine Power approached Ye Renxin’s Martial Soul, visible shackles appeared across it.

• Ye Renxin summoned his Nine Hearts Begonia, and the Fire God sensed that its restriction resembled a law of the world.
• Lin Li told Ye Renxin that the Nine Hearts Begonia had been restricted because it was too powerful, leaving Ye Renxin shaken by the revelation.
• Lin Li summoned Mahoraga and asked Ye Renxin to attack him, but the Nine Hearts Begonia’s blow healed him instead.
• Lin Li realized he could target the law restricting the Nine Hearts Begonia by using another law’s power to provoke it.
• Lin Li brought his Ice and Fire Divine Power close to the Nine Hearts Begonia, causing it to tremble as transparent shackles appeared across its surface.

Lin Li fought the shackles of law binding the Ye Family’s Nine Hearts Begonia, discovering that only attacks infused with the fundamental powers of Heaven and Earth could damage them. With Bai Ye and Ye Renxin ready to join his counterattack, Lin Li launched the Song of the Ice and Fire Dragon.

• Lin Li drew the shackles’ attack and was thrown through the room, while Ye Renxin found his Soul Skills sealed and tried to support him with his Soul Power.
• The shackles attacked Lin Li with growing force, and Bai Ye joined the fight after discovering that his sword could not damage them through ordinary means.
• Lin Li’s Flame Demon Scorching Kill and Bai Ye’s Sword Intent damaged the shackles, revealing that rules could oppose rules.
• Lin Li used his Ice-Fire Twin Swords to freeze and shatter a shackle, then urged Bai Ye to attack with his Sword Intent.
• Bai Ye and Ye Renxin prepared to fight beside Lin Li as Lin Li began the Extreme—Song of the Ice and Fire Dragon.

Lin Li, Ye Renxin, and Bai Ye broke the Lock Hammer and tried to seize the law-filled shell, but the imprisoning chains closed around them. Chen Xin arrived and unleashed a devastating sword strike that destroyed the chains and flattened the Ye Family rear courtyard, leaving the three injured underground.

• Lin Li’s ice-and-fire dragon shadows and Bai Ye’s sword strike shattered the Lock Hammer, revealing a black sphere containing a golden object.
• Lin Li grabbed the sphere’s shell to refine it, but the chains began reforming and closing in on him.
• Ye Renxin and Bai Ye raised barriers to protect Lin Li as the chains surrounded them and began breaking through.
• Chen Xin arrived, understood Lin Li’s warning to use Sword Intent, and drew the chains’ attention away from the group.
• Chen Xin unleashed a powerful sword strike that erased the chains and devastated the rear courtyard, leaving Lin Li, Ye Renxin, and Bai Ye injured underground.

Lin Li used Mahoraga to create a pendant that absorbed the sealed spherical object, restoring one petal to Ye Renxin’s Nine Hearts Begonia while leaving ten layers of seals. After leaving the Ye residence with Chen Xin, Lin Li addressed his lack of interest in Ning Rongrong, then fumbled when Chen Xin asked who he loved.

• Chen Xin defeated the strange spherical object, and Ye Renxin led Lin Li and the others to the Ye Family residence so Lin Li could handle it in private.
• Chen Xin invited Bai Ye to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but Bai Ye refused and planned to travel; Chen Xin offered him help as a friend.
• Lin Li completed Mahoraga’s third adaptation and formed a patterned pendant that absorbed the sphere, leaving behind a golden leaf.
• Lin Li explained that Ye Renxin still had ten seals to break, and the golden leaf fused with Ye Renxin’s Nine Hearts Begonia, which grew a golden petal.
• Ye Renxin tried to arrange a match between Lin Li and his granddaughter, but Lin Li said he already loved someone; Chen Xin later confirmed he understood Lin Li did not like Ning Rongrong.
• As Lin Li and Chen Xin walked toward the Ning Residence, Chen Xin asked about the person Lin Li loved, and Lin Li privately admitted he had made that up to deflect Ye Renxin’s matchmaking.

Lin Li tested the pendant left behind after his Martial Soul adapted, then swallowed it when his other attempts failed. The pendant triggered two opposing vortices in his dantian, and Mahoraga began adapting as Lin Li endured severe internal pain.

• Lin Li considered ways to use the pendant and decided to test it after reasoning that it should be harmless to him.
• Lin Li's blood and Soul Power had no effect on the pendant, while his Divine Power resisted touching it.
• Lin Li swallowed the pendant and summoned Mahoraga, whose Dharma Wheel initially remained still.
• Soul Power gathered in Lin Li's dantian as his Ice and Fire Divine Power surged toward it, forming two clashing vortices that tore at his insides.
• Mahoraga completed its first adaptation and healed Lin Li, but the pain soon returned as the opposing vortices continued to torment him.

After adapting his body to two spheres within his core, Lin Li returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with Dugu Bo to address the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison. He gave Dugu Bo the Earth Dragon Golden Melon for Dugu Yan and proposed using another Immortal Herb to help Dugu Bo condense a Soul Core, ending with a demonstration of controlled Soul Power.

• Lin Li finished adapting his core, discovered an ice-and-fire sphere and a second transparent sphere, and realized Dugu Bo might be able to store his poison in a Soul Core.
• Lin Li told Dugu Bo he had found a solution, and Dugu Bo carried him to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to investigate.
• Lin Li and Dugu Bo found the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, and Dugu Bo decided to save it for Dugu Yan rather than consume it himself.
• Lin Li showed Dugu Bo the Hunyuan Immortal Herb and explained that it could help him condense a Soul Core to store his poison and strengthen himself.
• Dugu Bo asked what a Soul Core was, so Lin Li released and controlled his Soul Power to demonstrate it.

Lin Li guided Dugu Bo in using his Poison Core and an Immortal Herb to condense a Soul Core. Dugu Bo succeeded and reached Level 93, while Yue Guan and Gui Mei set out to capture Lin Li and take him back to Spirit City.

• Lin Li suggested that Dugu Bo use his Poison Core as the foundation for a Soul Core and compress his Soul Power with Mental Power after consuming the Hunyuan Immortal Herb.
• After practicing for half a day, Dugu Bo decided to risk condensing the core, and Lin Li went outside the valley to guard him.
• Five days later, Dugu Bo emerged rejuvenated, demonstrated his power in the sky, and announced that he had reached Level 93.
• Lin Li headed toward the Sunset Forest exit with the Earth Dragon Golden Melon for Yan Yan, while Dugu Bo flew back on his own.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei agreed to take Lin Li to Spirit City, searched the Ning Residence and Dugu Manor, and then spotted Dugu Bo returning with increased strength.
• Yue Guan guessed that Dugu Bo had used an Immortal Herb and resolved to capture Lin Li before he could waste more of them.

Lin Li was ambushed outside Heaven Dou City by Gui Mei, who tried to capture him after spotting his hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. Lin Li was badly wounded but kept fleeing in hopes that Dugu Bo or Chen Xin would reach him.

• Yue Guan waited outside Dugu Bo’s home, and the two noticed a Titled Douluo’s Soul Power erupting outside the city.
• Lin Li sensed an ambush, dodged Gui Mei’s first attack, and identified him as the attacker.
• Lin Li used Mahoraga, Golden Armor, and Heaven Burning Flame against Gui Mei, then tried to escape.
• Gui Mei trapped Lin Li with Ghost Shadow Earth Pool Hand and attacked him with Ghost Claw.
• Lin Li unleashed Extreme Ice-Fire Dragon Dance, was seriously wounded, and flew away to stall for time.

Lin Li escaped Ghost Douluo’s Black Birdcage with Dugu Bo’s help, but Yu Yuanzhen ambushed him before he could reach Heaven Dou City. Yue Guan and Dugu Bo intervened to stop Yu Yuanzhen from killing Lin Li, and the Titled Douluo prepared to fight in earnest.

• A Heaven Dou City soldier spotted the battle outside the city, and the fighting blasted open the gates shortly after they closed.
• Dugu Bo freed Lin Li from the Black Birdcage and confronted Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo, who attacked together.
• Dugu Bo petrified Gui Mei with Medusa’s Gaze and sent Lin Li toward Heaven Dou City to find Sword Douluo.
• Yu Yuanzhen intercepted Lin Li, paralyzed him with lightning, and tried to stab him through the heart.
• Yue Guan and Dugu Bo stopped Yu Yuanzhen’s attack, but his Dragon Transformation blasted Lin Li away as the Titled Douluo faced off.

Lin Li adapted to the Polarity Stasis Domain, revealed a second Martial Soul, and waited for Chen Xin and Dugu Bo to retreat before unleashing a Domain. The Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo and Yu Yuanzhen were trapped inside Mahoraga Prison Realm.

• Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo attacked Yu Yuanzhen and Dugu Bo while Lin Li slowly recovered.
• Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Polarity Stasis Domain, to freeze the battlefield.
• Mahoraga adapted to the domain, allowing Lin Li to move and reveal a milky-white Long Sword as his second Martial Soul.
• Chen Xin arrived and attacked Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Yu Yuanzhen, while Dugu Bo joined Lin Li.
• Lin Li asked Chen Xin and Dugu Bo to retreat five hundred meters, then trapped the remaining fighters inside Mahoraga Prison Realm.

Lin Li’s Mahoraga Prison Realm trapped the fighters and soldiers in an arena where Mahoraga adapted to its opponents and grew stronger with each rotation of its Dharma Wheel. As the city-wall guards were slaughtered and the Title Douluo struggled to understand the domain, Yue Guan rushed toward Mahoraga’s main body.

• Mahoraga opened its Prison Realm, strengthening itself and suppressing everyone caught within its five-hundred-meter arena while sending shadow incarnations after its targets.
• Yu Yuanzhen punched Mahoraga and initially believed it was weak, while its incarnations began attacking the soldiers on Heaven Dou City’s wall.
• After ten soldiers died, the Dharma Wheel completed a rotation, and Mahoraga recovered from its injuries and grew stronger.
• Yu Yuanzhen transformed into his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul Avatar, but Mahoraga wounded him as he tried to pin it down.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei defeated two incarnations, but they re-formed, so Yue Guan flew toward Mahoraga’s main body while Lin Li struck at him.
• The Dharma Wheel completed three more rotations, the city-wall guards fell into danger, and the Captain-General ordered his soldiers to observe as Yue Guan rushed toward Mahoraga again.

Lin Li's Mahoraga Prison Realm battle forced Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Yu Yuanzhen into a desperate attack that left all three defeated and Yu Yuanzhen without his left arm. As Heaven Dou forces surrounded the battlefield, Xue Qinghe let the Spirit Hall men leave, but Yu Yuanzhen found his own path blocked.

• Mahoraga adapted again, grew stronger, and sent Yu Yuanzhen flying while Gui Mei rescued soldiers from its clones.
• Yue Guan and Gui Mei used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to immobilize Mahoraga as Yu Yuanzhen attacked with his ninth Soul Skill.
• The battlefield faded after the clash, revealing Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Yu Yuanzhen down and Yu Yuanzhen's Spirit Bone exposed beside his severed left arm.
• Heaven Dou troops surrounded the site, and Xue Qinghe allowed Gui Mei and Yue Guan to leave despite Xue Xing's objections.
• Yu Yuanzhen retrieved his Spirit Bone and tried to depart, but Heaven Dou forces surrounded him again, prompting him to accuse the empire of targeting his clan.

After the battle, Lin Li and Dugu Bo received treatment at Renxin Hall while Ning Yang explained why the Heaven Dou Empire would return Yu Yuanzhen’s Spirit Bone. Lin Li then chose to handle Ning Rongrong’s feelings himself, leaving the matter unresolved.

• Yu Yuanzhen accused the Heaven Dou Empire of targeting his clan and coveting its Spirit Bone, while Xue Qinghe arranged to speak with Lin Li after he recovered.
• Dugu Bo took the badly injured Lin Li to Renxin Hall, where Ye Renxin treated them for nearly an hour.
• Ning Yang explained that political balance would compel the empire to return the Spirit Bone and provide benefits to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
• Lin Li told Dugu Bo he would cultivate as usual and privately resolved to settle the score within five years.
• Ning Yang asked whether Lin Li had feelings for Ning Rongrong, and Lin Li said he would speak with her himself.

Lin Li ended his relationship with Ning Rongrong and spent the next three years cultivating in Heaven Dou City. He prepared to leave for Suotuo City, where the story was about to begin, as Xue Qinghe came to see him off.

• Lin Li told Ning Rongrong he had someone he liked, and she ran away after asking why he had rejected her.
• Lin Li later sent Ning Fengzhi a letter explaining the separation, while Yu Yuanzhen left Heaven Dou City with Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul evolved beyond the Dugu Family’s poison.
• Lin Li continued cultivating and meeting Xue Qinghe, who said Yue Guan and Gui Mei had returned and vowed to avenge him in the future.
• Three years passed, and Lin Li received new clothes and a Jade Token from Ning Yang as he prepared to leave Heaven Dou City.
• Ning Yang told Lin Li that Xue Qinghe was waiting outside to see him off on his journey toward Suotuo City.
