Chapter Summaries

After the group killed the Azure Flame Evil Flood Dragon, Wang Chuan gave its Spirit Bone to Wang Lie and discovered that Golden Scale had gained formidable defenses. Their inspection was cut short when three powerful Soul Beasts approached, forcing them to flee.

• Wang Chuan gave the Azure Flame Evil Flood Dragon's Spirit Bone to Wang Lie, hoping it could help him break through to Title Douluo in the future.
• Wang Chuan inspected Golden Scale's transformation and found its new white belly scales could withstand attacks at Soul Douluo level and repair damage quickly.
• Wang Chuan sensed three powerful waves of malice and urged the group to run.
• Wang Chuan and the others fled from the Sky Azure Bull Python, Titan Giant Ape, and Soft Bone Rabbit King, and he vowed to remember them.

Wang Chuan’s group escaped the pursuit of Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu when Ah Rou stopped the chase to protect their family’s secret. After reaching safety, Wang Chuan vowed to settle the grudge once he was strong enough.

• Da Ming stopped Er Ming and Xiao Wu at the Mixed Zone’s border to avoid provoking a beast tide and drawing human attention.
• Ah Rou appeared, scolded Xiao Wu for recklessly pursuing the humans, and took her home to teach her about human society.
• The pursuit ended without exposing Xiao Wu’s family, as distant witnesses mistook the group for the forest king and its companions.
• Wang Chuan’s group reached a fortress city, where Zhao Wuji and Shao Xin declared they would eventually hunt the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
• Wang Chuan said he would kill the three beasts or die trying once he was strong enough.

While traveling through Heaven Dou, Wang Chuan saw how taxes and exploitation kept villagers hungry despite plentiful food, and he began to suspect the ruling class suppressed commoners’ chances of becoming Spirit Masters. The group’s danger sense then alerted them to approaching Wolf Bandits, and Wang Chuan prepared to face the creatures.

• Wang Chuan’s group rested in a fortress city, then set off to travel while Wang Lie and Dugu Bo returned to cultivate at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Wang Chuan, Dugu Xin, and Bibi Dong saw impoverished villagers, and Wang Chuan stopped Bibi Dong from giving them Gold Soul Coins.
• Wang Chuan exchanged coins for grain and distributed it among villages while questioning residents about their harvests and taxes.
• Wang Chuan learned through investigation that the upper class hoarded or wasted surplus food while commoners remained poor.
• Wang Chuan reflected on how poverty might weaken commoners’ chances of awakening Innate Soul Power, then his eyes briefly flashed red.
• The group’s Observation Haki detected approaching Wolf Bandits, and Zhao Wuji asked Wang Chuan what they should do.

Wang Chuan awakened Conqueror’s Haki and wiped out a Wolf Bandit pack threatening a village, then found a Spirit Bone and declared his plans to his companions. With everyone agreeing to follow him, he set his sights on overturning Douluo Continent while promising Bibi Dong that Spirit Hall and innocent people would not be targeted.

• Wang Chuan awakened Conqueror’s Haki, frightening the Wolf Bandits into retreating, then pursued and killed them with his Justice—Blast technique.
• Wang Chuan found a wind-attribute Spirit Bone among the Wolf Bandit leader’s remains and gave it to Shao Xin after Bibi Dong and Dugu Xin declined it.
• Wang Chuan told Dugu Xin, Zhao Wuji, Shao Xin, and Bibi Dong that his future plans might make him an enemy of every faction on the continent, and asked them whether they would stay with him.
• Dugu Xin, Zhao Wuji, and Shao Xin pledged to follow Wang Chuan, while Bibi Dong asked him to clarify whether his plans meant attacking Spirit Hall and its commoner members.
• Wang Chuan promised Bibi Dong that he would not target Spirit Hall unless it acted against him, would spare innocents, and would let Spirit Hall continue to exist; his companions then agreed to turn Douluo Continent upside down.

Bibi Dong brought home Moli, an orphan whose mutated Martial Spirit made her a catgirl and gave her a sense of malice. When Spirit Hall agents targeted the village over Moli, Wang Chuan stopped Bibi Dong from killing a black-robed bishop and forced the attackers to swear they would leave the villagers alone.

• Bibi Dong told Wang Chuan that Moli had chosen her for protection after a Spirit Hall deacon tried to adopt her, and Wang Chuan realized Bibi Dong had left out the confrontation that followed.
• Moli explained that she had sensed something bad would happen if she went with the deacon, and Bibi Dong comforted her as Wang Chuan accepted her into the group.
• Wang Chuan assigned Bibi Dong to night watch, and she drove away Spirit Hall attackers before discovering that others were still monitoring the village.
• Two Soul Saints returned, and Bibi Dong learned one was a black-robed bishop before Wang Chuan stopped her from killing them.
• Wang Chuan threatened the Soul Saints into swearing to the Angel God that they would not harm the village, and Bibi Dong thanked him for protecting its ordinary people.

Wang Chuan led his group toward the coast, intending to establish an overseas foothold and build an empire. In Canglan City, he found a suitable ship-type Soul Tool but needed to raise the remaining money before it arrived in a month.

• Wang Chuan explained that Xiao Moli had been targeted because rare cases like hers appealed to wealthy buyers, and the group reacted with disgust at the thought of her being sold.
• Wang Chuan revealed that he was taking the group to see the ocean and planned to establish a base in an overseas nation, eventually expanding into an empire.
• After reaching Canglan City, Wang Chuan obtained information about Wu Kingdom, an island nation that had become a vassal of the Heaven Dou Empire.
• Wang Chuan visited the Seven Treasure Commercial Firm and learned that its catalog listed three ship-type Soul Tools, including two sturdy vessels priced at one million Gold Soul Coins each.
• Wang Chuan chose the fifteen-meter ship, paid a two-hundred-thousand-Gold-Soul-Coin deposit, and set out to raise the remaining funds before its delivery in a month.

Wang Chuan auctioned a whale Spirit Beast and the other Spirit Beasts found in its stomach, earning a large profit. He then encountered Ah Yin, Tang Xiao, and Tang Hao at the harbor, with a hidden Title Douluo nearby.

• Wang Chuan sold a ten-thousand-year whale Spirit Beast's Spirit Ring for 128,000 Gold Soul Coins and sold its other valuable materials to the Seven Treasures Chamber of Commerce.
• Wang Chuan discovered Spirit Beasts in the whale's stomach and let Sea Spirit Masters bid for the chance to hunt them.
• Ah Yin asked Wang Chuan to stop slaughtering Spirit Beasts, and Tang Xiao stepped forward to confront him when he did not reply.
• Wang Chuan recognized Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, identified their companion as Ah Yin, and sensed a Title Douluo hidden in the nearby forest.
• Tang Xiao and Tang Hao mistook Wang Chuan's strange expression for interest in Ah Yin and grew hostile.

Wang Chuan rebuffed Tang Hao and Tang Xiao after they confronted him over killing a Spirit Beast, and the brothers took Ah Yin away. That night, Tang Zheng ambushed Wang Chuan at a sea cliff with a Clear Sky Hammer attack.

• Tang Hao tried to shove Wang Chuan, but Wang Chuan caught his wrist and sent him staggering back.
• Tang Hao seized Ah Yin and retreated while Tang Xiao summoned his Clear Sky Hammer and warned Wang Chuan that they belonged to the Clear Sky Sect.
• Tang Xiao apologized and left with Tang Hao and Ah Yin, while Wang Chuan suspected the brothers would not let the matter go.
• Wang Chuan returned to the sea, caught another enormous creature, and later waited alone on a sea cliff after sensing someone nearby.
• Tang Zheng appeared and hurled his Clear Sky Hammer at Wang Chuan with his Self-Created Soul Skill, Sky-Piercing Strike.

Tang Xiao and Tang Zheng discussed the Clear Sky Sect’s risky plan to have Tang Hao win Ah Yin’s affection and eventually obtain her Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring. After Tang Zheng asked how to deal with a man who might have discovered Ah Yin’s identity, Tang Xiao approved killing him and planned to leave the city with Tang Hao first.

• Tang Xiao admitted to Tang Zheng that he worried the plan was too risky and suggested taking the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring himself.
• Tang Zheng considered the Clear Sky Sect’s declining position and the leaders’ hopes that Tang Hao would grow strong enough to restore its former prestige.
• The Clear Sky Sect’s leaders had devised the Love Operation to make Ah Yin fall for Tang Hao, while Tang Xiao was meant to support his brother and learn to help lead the sect.
• Tang Zheng asked Tang Xiao whether they should ignore the man who might have recognized Ah Yin or eliminate him.
• Tang Xiao told Tang Zheng to have the Second Elder kill the man and said he and Tang Hao would leave Canglan City first to avoid alerting Ah Yin.

Wang Chuan defeated Tang Zheng in a fight near the sea cliff, destroying his Clear Sky Hammer and killing him. With Tang Zheng dead, Wang Chuan expected the Clear Sky Sect to have no way to identify or track him.

• Tang Zheng threw his Clear Sky Hammer at Wang Chuan, who dodged and mocked the attack before evading Tang Zheng’s Holy Hammer Meteor Shower.
• Wang Chuan plunged off the cliff, then used Geppo to attack Tang Zheng from below with Tempest Kick and send him flying.
• Wang Chuan pursued the injured Tang Zheng, intending to kill him before he could reach the Clear Sky Sect or summon reinforcements.
• Tang Zheng used Clear Sky Protection, but Wang Chuan shattered the barrier and cut the Clear Sky Hammer in two.
• Wang Chuan beheaded Tang Zheng after the destroyed Martial Spirit left him weakened.

Wang Chuan killed Tang Zheng, later used his death to secure a ship and sailed for Wu Kingdom. Tang Zheng’s disappearance stirred conflict across the Spirit Master world, while Ning Fengzhi began maneuvering against the weakened Clear Sky Sect.

• Wang Chuan refined Tang Zheng’s corpse, took his belongings, and decided to save the body as fertilizer for powerful herbs.
• After three months without Tang Zheng’s reports, the Clear Sky Sect learned he had likely died at Wang Chuan’s hands and sent Tang Wei and the Grand Elder to investigate.
• Tang Wei’s group discovered only that Tang Zheng’s killer had a fifteen-meter blue, three-masted sailing ship Soul Tool, and rumors of Tang Zheng’s death spread across the Spirit Master world.
• Ning Fengzhi saw the Clear Sky Sect’s weakened position as an opportunity and began making plans to challenge its standing.
• Wang Chuan used the money he had gathered to obtain the ship, named it Canglong, and sailed with his companions toward Wu Kingdom.
• The Canglong reached Wu Kingdom in two days using Wang Chuan’s wind-attribute Soul Power, and he wondered why his abilities seemed to follow an element-focused path.

Wang Chuan and his companions reached the Wu Kingdom and found a strange, centipede-filled forest. After meeting a group from the Tianwu Tribe, Wang Chuan hesitated over whether to make the region his starting point.

• Wang Chuan stored the Canglong and led the group across the islands toward a patch of greenery.
• A giant centipede frightened Moli, and Bibi Dong destroyed it with a Soul Power shockwave.
• Wang Chuan sensed that the forest was filled with hostile centipedes and ordered everyone to retreat.
• Seven young people emerged from the forest, led by She Shi and Wu Duo, who warned Wang Chuan's group that the Tianwu Tribe was at war with the Youshe Tribe.
• Wang Chuan considered whether to use the Wu Kingdom as his starting point despite his unease about its centipedes and snakes.
