Chapter Summaries

Long Aotian taught Huo Yuhao the Body Sect’s battle techniques and the principles behind Unity of Heaven and Man. Huo Yuhao mastered the realm in three days, while Long Aotian’s own breakthrough began to draw closer.

• Long Aotian explained how Body Martial Souls let their users naturally control their bodies and described Unity of Heaven and Man as the Body Sect’s path to greater strength.
• Long Aotian began teaching Huo Yuhao foundational stance training, but Huo Yuhao immediately unified his Spiritual Power, Soul Power, and Bloodline Power by studying Long Aotian through the Eye of Truth.
• Long Aotian told Huo Yuhao to maintain that unified state and develop personal battle techniques, then sent him to study his golden-tier Second Awakening and visit the Scripture Depository.
• Over the next three days, Huo Yuhao created a battle technique, incorporated his will and emotions into it, and achieved seamless control and Unity of Heaven and Man.
• Long Aotian fled to another training ground after witnessing Huo Yuhao’s rapid progress, though guiding him had loosened the barrier to Long Aotian’s own breakthrough.

Di Tian traced a True Dragon Egg to Sun Moon City and confronted the Sun Moon Empire, demanding the return of his kin. Kong Deming negotiated for time while secretly weighing the egg’s value, and Zhongli Wu arrived to take over the matter.

• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion told Di Tian that a direct-line Fire Dragon King True Dragon Egg had fallen into human hands, prompting him to leave the Star Dou Great Forest and search across the continent.
• Di Tian sensed the egg in Sun Moon City, where Du Busi concealed himself nearby to watch the Beast God face the empire’s Soul Tools.
• Sun Moon City’s guards raised a highest-level threat alert, drawing Soul Engineers and Xu Tianran’s attention as he summoned his godmother for protection.
• The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Legion attacked Di Tian and wounded him, but he endured the assault and demanded that the Sun Moon Empire return his kin.
• Kong Deming promised to provide an explanation within half an hour, then headed to Mingde Hall, where Zhongli Wu appeared and offered to take over the matter.

Kong Deming, Zhongli Wu, and Evil Emperor arranged talks between the Sun Moon Empire and Di Tian over the True Dragon Egg and possible cooperation with the Star Dou Great Forest. Di Tian left with the egg, while Du Busi departed unsettled by the Empire’s hidden strength and focused again on his plans for his disciple.

• Kong Deming rebuffed Zhongli Wu, but listened as Zhongli Wu proposed using Evil Emperor to negotiate cooperation between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Kong Deming retrieved the True Dragon Egg, then met with Di Tian and Evil Emperor high above the city to negotiate.
• Du Busi watched from a distance as Di Tian left with the egg and Kong Deming returned to reassure Sun Moon City’s residents.
• Du Busi considered the strength of the Sun Moon Empire and the hidden presence he had sensed, then decided to catch a 100,000-Year Evil Eye Tyrant for his future disciple.

Huo Yuhao studied the Body Sect’s records and mastered Unity of Heaven and Man within three days, while Long Aotian made a breakthrough of his own. Du Busi returned with a captured Hundred-Thousand-Year Evil Eye Tyrant and a matching head bone for Huo Yuhao, then went to check on his disciple.

• Huo Yuhao used his Spiritual Power and Eye of Truth to record the Body Sect’s teachings and analyze its members’ Body Martial Souls.
• Du Busi returned from the Evil Soul Beast Forest with a sealed Hundred-Thousand-Year Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Crystal Core and a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spiritual Attribute head bone.
• Du Busi discovered that Long Aotian had touched the threshold of Unity of Heaven and Man while he was away.
• Long Aotian told Du Busi that Huo Yuhao had achieved Unity of Heaven and Man on his third day in the sect.
• Du Busi resolved to give Huo Yuhao the head bone and sent Long Aotian to consolidate his breakthrough before going to see Huo Yuhao.

Du Busi formally accepted Huo Yuhao as his final disciple and named him the Body Sect’s next Young Sect Master, stunning the elders with Yuhao’s extraordinary achievements. After celebrating, Du Busi planned to target Mingde Hall for soul tools and send Jin Peng to seek connections with other factions.

• Du Busi gathered the Body Sect elders, and Huo Yuhao completed the formal ceremony to become his disciple.
• Du Busi gave Huo Yuhao a Hundred Thousand Year Spiritual Attribute skull bone as a gift.
• Du Busi revealed Huo Yuhao’s Golden-tier Second Awakening and record-breaking progress, then named him Young Sect Master; the elders accepted the decision.
• Du Busi declined a proposed collective hunt for the time being and ordered a banquet to celebrate Huo Yuhao’s appointment.
• Du Busi privately instructed Jin Peng to guard the sect and Huo Yuhao, contact soul tool researchers in other empires, and pay attention to the wealthy Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
• Du Busi planned to lead the sect’s Titled Douluo in an operation against Mingde Hall to seize soul tools or blueprints.

Huo Yuhao fused with the Hundred Thousand Year Evil Eye Tyrant skull soul bone under Du Busi’s protection, gaining powerful Spiritual Power and two Soul Bone Skills. After Du Busi left the sect, Huo Yuhao spent three months sparring with its disciples, refining his techniques and considering how to construct a True Form Martial Soul with his Third Soul Skill.

• Du Busi guarded Huo Yuhao as he fused with the Evil Eye Tyrant skull, while the Eye of Truth, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Electrolux, and the Gold of Life helped him withstand its power.
• Huo Yuhao completed the fusion, reached rank thirty-six, and gained the Soul Bone Skills Soul Devour and Spiritual Projection.
• Du Busi left the Body Sect with his team, instructing Huo Yuhao to remain in the sect and seek guidance from Elder Jin Peng.
• Huo Yuhao studied how the soul bone’s abilities could improve his Soul Power Circuit techniques and allow him to project previously tested techniques in battle.
• For three months, Huo Yuhao sparred with the Body Sect disciples, defeating each ordinary disciple at least ten times as he continued refining his combat methods.
• Huo Yuhao judged that the disciples could no longer challenge his progress and considered using his Third Soul Skill to construct a complete True Form Martial Soul.

Huo Yuhao sought a fifty-thousand-year Silver Fox for his Fourth Soul Ring, then abandoned conventional models of a True Form Martial Soul and found the Origin underlying his Eye of Truth. He began analyzing it to build a Martial Soul uniquely his own, but the effort exhausted his soul power before he could uncover its structure.

• Huo Yuhao told Jin Peng he had reached Rank 40 and requested a Fourth Soul Ring, choosing a roughly fifty-thousand-year Silver Fox from the Far North.
• Jin Peng agreed to capture a suitable Soul Beast and left the Body Sect, while Huo Yuhao secluded himself in a Cultivation Room to develop his True Form Martial Soul.
• Huo Yuhao rejected his nearly completed Spiritual Attribute-based model and realized he needed a path defined by himself as a transmigrator.
• Huo Yuhao used the Eye of Truth to strip away the structure of his Spirit Eyes until only an ordinary point remained, which he identified as the Origin of his Martial Soul.
• Huo Yuhao began analyzing the point as the foundation of a unique True Form Martial Soul, but the task consumed his soul power and left him physically weak.

Huo Yuhao used the Eye of Truth to direct some of the Star Dou Great Forest’s Power of Fortune toward Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng, who returned battered from the Far North with a Five-Tailed Spirit Fox. The fox offered to become Huo Yuhao’s Soul Ring so his fortune could help the Far North, leaving Huo Yuhao to consider the creature’s unusual motive.

• Huo Yuhao examined the threads of fate and used the Star Dou Great Forest’s Power of Fortune to improve Jin Peng’s luck.
• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion sensed a brief fluctuation in the Star Dou Great Forest’s fortune but could not determine its cause.
• Jin Peng returned to the sect wounded and brought a Five-Tailed Spirit Fox he had encountered in the Far North Core Region.
• Jin Peng warned Huo Yuhao that the Spirit Fox had willingly offered to become his Soul Ring and urged him to be cautious.
• Huo Yuhao used the Eye of Truth to understand that the Spirit Fox wanted his fortune to become linked with the Far North and help protect it.

Huo Yuhao accepted the Five-Tailed White Fox’s voluntary sacrifice, gained a powerful Fourth Soul Ring, and preserved her consciousness in his Spiritual Sea. He learned that Ice Empress faced a dangerous tribulation and that Snow Empress had reincarnated as a human, then turned to examine his new Soul Skill.

• Huo Yuhao decided to accept the Five-Tailed White Fox’s sacrifice, and Jin Peng stood guard outside the Cultivation Room.
• The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm preserved the Five-Tailed White Fox’s consciousness as her sacrifice succeeded, raising Huo Yuhao’s Soul Power to just below level forty-four.
• The Five-Tailed White Fox revealed that Ice Empress had only a thirty percent chance of surviving her coming tribulation and that Snow Empress had reincarnated as a human.
• Huo Yuhao sensed that his Power of Fortune had connected to the Far North and judged that Ice Empress’s tribulation was likely at least a year away.
• Huo Yuhao learned that his Fourth Soul Skill, Spirit Fox Tail, stored energy for up to five rapid restorations of his peak strength.

The Body Sect prepared to exploit the Treasure-Snatching Alliance to steal Mingde Hall’s basic Soul Tool system and abduct its low-level researchers. In the Far North, the Ice Empress guarded the human-form Snow Empress while facing a great tribulation expected within three years, and Shrek Academy adjusted its plans amid departing students and growing political tensions.

• Du Busi directed the Body Sect to let the other alliance factions probe Mingde Hall while his sect prepared to seize low-level Soul Tool blueprints and researchers and take high-level Soul Tools by force.
• The Ice Empress recovered at Ice God Lake under the Snow Empress’s protection, but she feared her next great tribulation would arrive within three years.
• The Snow Empress’s human-form cultivation could reach only the Level 90 bottleneck with her remaining Origin Power, leaving her without enough power to condense a Ninth Soul Ring.
• Mu En focused Shrek Academy’s training on Beibei and Xiao Xiao while secretly cultivating Ma Xiaotao as a future trump card.
• Wang Dong and Ning Tian were recalled by their respective sects, leaving Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, and Xiao Xiao from the original Shrek Reserve Team at the academy.
• Mu En and the Sea God Pavilion Elders worked to form a fragile alliance among the Star Luo, Heaven Dou, and Dou Ling Empires against the Sun Moon Empire.

Huo Yuhao broke through to level fifty and used the Body Sect’s Seed of Inheritance to evolve his Spirit Eyes into a True Form Martial Soul. He then devoured the Evil Eye Tyrant’s spiritual origin and absorbed its Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring as his fifth ring.

• After examining Huo Yuhao’s cultivation, Du Busi returned to the Body Sect and decided to pass him the Seed of Inheritance.
• Huo Yuhao used his Martial Soul Awakening phantom and the Seed of Inheritance to evolve his Spirit Eyes over ten days.
• Huo Yuhao discovered that his True Form Martial Soul greatly enhanced his Spiritual Power and let him decompose things he understood.
• Du Busi gave Huo Yuhao the Evil Eye Tyrant’s Soul Crystal Core, and Huo Yuhao devoured the soul beast’s Spiritual Power origin.
• Huo Yuhao shattered the weakened Soul Crystal and absorbed the Evil Eye Tyrant’s Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring as his fifth ring.

Huo Yuhao studied Electrolux’s magic and quickly mastered powerful Necromancy, while his soul power advanced beyond Rank 60. With his magical training temporarily complete, he prepared to seek his next Soul Rings, as a major event occurred in Mingde Hall.

• Du Busi left the Body Sect after telling Huo Yuhao to request resources from Great Elder Jin Peng and wait for him to arrange future Soul Rings.
• Huo Yuhao visited Electrolux’s Undead Demigod Plane and began learning magic after discussing his curiosity and principles with his teacher.
• Electrolux taught Huo Yuhao magic’s foundations, then instructed him in Light Magic and Necromancy, which Huo Yuhao mastered with extraordinary speed.
• Electrolux limited Huo Yuhao’s training to Level 7 Magic until he reached Rank 70, and Huo Yuhao agreed to consolidate what he had learned.
• Over the next year and a half, Huo Yuhao’s soul power passed Rank 60, and his mastery of Necromancy let him give spiritual entities in his Spiritual Sea energy bodies.
• A world-shaking event occurred in Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire.

The Body Sect and the Treasure-Snatching Alliance launched a coordinated assault on Mingde Hall, with the Body Sect infiltrating underground while the alliance drew defenders away. Du Busi led the Body Sect’s retreat after they abducted or killed many Soul Engineers and stole a powerful humanoid Soul Tool, leaving Jing Hongchen furious over Mingde Hall’s catastrophic losses.

• Jing Hongchen ordered Mingde Hall to remain on alert as he struggled to identify the factions harassing it.
• The Treasure-Snatching Alliance attacked Mingde Hall from four directions while the Body Sect’s experts entered through tunnels beneath the facility.
• Du Busi and the Body Sect overwhelmed the researchers in a laboratory, abducting Soul Engineers and looting equipment and materials.
• A Body Sect Soul Douluo stored a fifteen-meter humanoid Soul Tool and its crimson-crystal Storage Soul Tool before leaving the laboratory.
• Jing Hongchen learned that Mingde Hall had been infiltrated but stayed to fight the alliance’s attackers rather than weaken the defenses.
• Du Busi led the Body Sect’s retreat through the tunnels, leaving Jing Hongchen to face Mingde Hall’s losses and the escape of the unknown mastermind.

Jing Hongchen dealt with the captured Shrek exchange students while worrying about the stolen Energy Source Crystal, and Du Busi returned to the Body Sect after its successful raid. He discovered Huo Yuhao had reached rank 60 and was writing extensive research on developing Body Martial Souls, but the notes ended just as Du Busi demanded to know what came next.

• Jing Hongchen ordered the captured Shrek exchange students treated as unknown thieves and worried that the invaders had stolen Mingde Hall's Energy Source Crystal.
• Du Busi handed the seized Soul Engineers and spoils to the Heaven Dou Empire, then returned to the Body Sect with his exhausted but excited Titled experts.
• Du Busi found Huo Yuhao writing with Spiritual Power and learned that he had reached rank 60 soul power.
• Huo Yuhao explained that his notes covered Body Martial Soul training, development, medicinal support, and ways to help every Body Soul Master awaken their martial soul.
• Du Busi read Huo Yuhao's notes, found the last page blank, and demanded to know what came next.

Huo Yuhao completed revolutionary theories for developing Body Martial Souls, and Du Busi realized they could transform the Soul Master world. Du Busi decided to keep the manuscripts secret until Huo Yuhao was strong enough to withstand the consequences, then took him overseas to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

• Huo Yuhao finished organizing his theories while Du Busi read the manuscripts and found that they loosened his Soul Power bottleneck.
• Du Busi realized Huo Yuhao's step-by-step methods could let even mediocre Soul Masters develop their martial souls and potentially combine cultivation with Soul Tools.
• Du Busi warned Huo Yuhao not to let the theories leak and said he would consult the Great Elder after their hunt, sharing only basic portions with the Body Sect.
• Du Busi left the Body Sect with Huo Yuhao and five Title Holders to hunt a spiritually attributed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast overseas.

Huo Yuhao and Du Busi’s group searched the ocean for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast suitable for Huo Yuhao’s Sixth Soul Ring. They found and subdued an injured Mirage Dragon, and Du Busi secured its Dragon Pearl for Huo Yuhao to absorb.

• Du Busi led Huo Yuhao and the Body Sect’s Titled Douluo deeper into the ocean after their searches near the coast found no Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
• The group camped on an uninhabited island, and Huo Yuhao used the Eye of Truth to adjust his Destiny, sensing they would find something soon.
• The next day, Huo Yuhao noticed something unusual about the sea mist, and Du Busi recognized that a Mirage Dragon was hiding nearby.
• Du Busi used his Innate Poison and Soul Power to expose and overpower the injured Mirage Dragon, revealing its Dragon Pearl as its true form.
• Du Busi captured the cracked Dragon Pearl and told Huo Yuhao that the Mirage Dragon’s Soul Ring and Soul Bone could benefit him.

Huo Yuhao absorbed the Mirage Dragon’s Soul Bone and Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, gaining new abilities before testing them against Du Busi. After the spar, Du Busi declared the expedition’s main objective complete and led the group back to the sect.

• Huo Yuhao absorbed the Mirage Dragon’s cloud-like Soul Bone into his right arm, then used the Gold of Life and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s help to absorb its Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

• Du Busi called the Soul Beast hunting expedition’s main objective complete and took Huo Yuhao and the five Titled Elder back to the sect.

Huo Yuhao nearly completed his analysis of Soul Cores as the Body Sect traveled toward the continent, while Shrek Academy faced Mu En’s imminent death. Mu En passed on leadership and left Shrek with a final blessing, leaving Xuan Zi to guide the academy through a changing era.

• Huo Yuhao used Du Busi’s Soul Core as a reference and concluded that he should wait until seven rings to condense his own safely.
• Mu En gathered the Sea God Pavilion Elders and named Xuan Zi as his successor, warning him to act cautiously amid the continent’s shifting powers.
• Mu En ordered Shrek to develop its Soul Engineering Department and integrate it with the Martial Soul Department, tying the future Pavilion Master position to the emergence of a Level 10 Soul Engineer.
• Mu En unleashed his remaining power, transformed into a white dragon, and blessed Shrek Academy and Sea God Island before he died.
• Di Tian answered Mu En’s display with a dark dragon aura but did not attack Shrek, then watched the crimson Dragon Egg absorb Life Force at Lake of Life.

Huo Yuhao refined the Mirage Dragon Right Arm Bone and uncovered clues in the Mirage Dragon’s memories pointing to Dragon Valley and a new continent beyond the misty sea. He left to report the remembered resources and the possible route to Du Busi.

• Du Busi and Jin Peng studied Huo Yuhao’s Soul Core theories and decided to organize the basic materials for the sect’s disciples, while considering testing the method on Ao Tian.
• Huo Yuhao completed his study of the Mirage Dragon Right Arm Bone, whose skills could absorb energy and unleash powerful attacks at the cost of temporarily scattering its structure.
• Huo Yuhao searched the Mirage Dragon’s memories and found locations of sea resources, evidence of the Demon Empress’s recent sweep, and signs that the Mirage Dragon had guarded a new continent.
• Huo Yuhao suspected that the continent was connected to Dragon Valley and decided to report the resource locations and his discovery to Du Busi.

Huo Yuhao told Du Busi about a newly discovered continent and claimed he could sense and influence fortune, persuading his master to accompany him to an opportunity in Sunset Forest. Du Busi left Jin Peng to handle the Body Sect’s affairs and traveled with Huo Yuhao, who remained certain the opportunity was there.

• Du Busi weighed the risks and benefits of the new continent and decided to discuss its development with the Heaven Dou Empire’s emperor.
• Huo Yuhao asked to leave the sect, then described his encounter with the Emperor Auspicious Beast and claimed he had stabilized the Body Sect’s fortune.
