Chapter Summaries

After establishing a new growing ground for the Immortal Herbs, Huo Yuhao returned to cultivation while Du Busi and Jin Peng went to meet Xuan Zi in Heaven Dou City. Jin Peng’s evolved True Form Martial Soul let him overpower Xuan Zi, and Du Busi arrived as Xuan Zi was about to retaliate.

• Huo Yuhao created a suitable growing ground for the Immortal Herbs and resumed cultivating.
• Du Busi convened the Body Sect elders after learning that Xuan Zi had come to Heaven Dou City seeking him.

• Jin Peng provoked Xuan Zi into following him to an uninhabited wilderness, where they began fighting.
• Jin Peng’s True Form Martial Soul withstood Xuan Zi’s attacks and beat him despite Xuan Zi’s higher Soul Power.
• Du Busi arrived as Xuan Zi, enraged by the humiliation, was about to unleash his strength.

Du Busi stopped Xuan Zi and Jin Peng’s fight, then negotiated with Xuan Zi over an alliance against the Sun Moon Empire. They agreed that Shrek Academy would help redirect a possible invasion toward the Star Luo Empire, leaving Xuan Zi to seek the emperor’s approval.

• Du Busi’s concealed poison weakened Xuan Zi during his battle with Jin Peng, and Jin Peng punched Xuan Zi into the ground.
• Du Busi invoked Mu En’s memory, and Xuan Zi set aside his anger to discuss the alliance agreement on behalf of the Sea God Pavilion.
• Du Busi demanded Shrek Academy’s full support if the Sun Moon Empire attacked the Heaven Dou Empire, so the invasion could be redirected toward the Star Luo Empire.
• Xuan Zi accepted the plan and said he would discuss it with Xu Jiawei, while Du Busi and Jin Peng considered Shrek Academy weaker than the Body Sect.
• Xuan Zi left for Star Dou City, and Du Busi and Jin Peng returned to inform the Heavenly Soul Imperial Family.

Xuan Zi learned too late that the Holy Spirit Cult had devastated Shrek City while he was away, and he returned to find the city in ruins. The attack ended with Ma Xiaotao captured and Shrek’s Golden Ancient Tree conserving its power, while Elder Lin blamed Xuan Zi for the catastrophe.

• The Star Luo Emperor told Xuan Zi that Evil Soul Masters had attacked Shrek City, and Xuan Zi hurried back in shock and regret.
• Zhongli Wu sent Myriad Souls Douluo, Abomination Douluo, and Nightmare Douluo to prepare human bombs using abducted people, Resentful Spirits, plague, and Soul Tool Bombs.
• The Holy Spirit Cult detonated the bombs across Shrek City, while its elders engaged Shrek’s defenders and Zhongli Wu and Feng Ling infiltrated Shrek Academy.
• The Holy Spirit Cult attacked Sea God Pavilion, triggered Ma Xiaotao’s dark flames, and escaped with her as the Fire Phoenix Saintess.
• Mu En used the Golden Ancient Tree to repel the attackers and purify the city, but he withheld its full power because he feared Di Tian.
• Elder Lin confronted Xuan Zi in the ruined city and blamed him for Shrek’s losses.

Shrek Academy struggled with the devastation caused by the Evil Soul Masters’ attack while Niu Tian decided to send a letter offering help from the Clear Sky Sect. Tai Tan took the gravely injured Wang Dong'er to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for treatment, where he found that most of its treasures and soil had been removed.

• An Elder reported that the attack had killed more than four hundred thousand residents of Shrek City, with total casualties possibly reaching a million, and the Sea God Pavilion mourned Ma Xiaotao’s abduction.
• The three original empires expressed sympathy for Shrek and saw its returning graduates rally to help, while the Sun Moon Empire remained silent and the rulers grew wary of Shrek’s influence.
• Niu Tian and Tai Tan suspected the God Realm had lost contact with the Douluo Continent and agreed that Tai Tan should take Wang Dong'er to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Niu Tian gave a letter for Shrek’s Sea God Pavilion Master to Tang Zhen, signaling that the Clear Sky Sect might enter the world and aid Shrek.
• Tai Tan carried the gravely injured Wang Dong'er to Sunset Forest and found that most of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well’s plants and energy-rich soil had been removed.

Wang Dong'er took the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, which healed her body and spirit while Tang San's attempt to bind Huo Yuhao to her failed. As Tai Tan carried her back to Clear Sky Fortress, Wang Dong'er recovered memories of Tang San's schemes and resolved that she was Wang Dong'er, not Tang Wutong or Tang Xiaoqi.

• Tai Tan awakened Wang Dong'er and urged her to take the Lovesick Heartbreak Red to save her collapsing body.
• Wang Dong'er approached the flower, whose golden light responded to her; Tang San's Divine Sense took control and made her swallow it, restoring her body and spirit.
• Tang San used the flower's Law of Love to form an illusory Red Thread toward Huo Yuhao, but Huo Yuhao's bond with Di Ruier made the thread dissipate and scattered most of Tang San's Divine Sense.
• Wang Dong'er received memories from the remnants of Tang San's Divine Sense and collapsed, while Tai Tan carried her back to Clear Sky Fortress.
• Wang Dong'er remained awake during the journey and decided that she was Wang Dong'er, rejecting Tang San and the identities he had imposed on her.

Di Ruier returned to the Star Dou Great Forest after sensing a disturbance in its Power of Fortune, leaving Huo Yuhao to cultivate until he was strong enough to reunite with her. There, the Silver Dragon King revealed that the God Realm’s weakening control over Douluo Star could give the Soul Beasts a rare opportunity.

• Di Ruier told Huo Yuhao that the Star Dou Great Forest’s Power of Fortune was fluctuating abnormally and that she needed to return to investigate.
• Huo Yuhao decided not to accompany Di Ruier because he feared that meeting Di Tian while weak could cost him the strength and resources he had built up.
• Di Ruier kissed Huo Yuhao goodbye, promised to continue their plan in the Star Dou Great Forest, and asked him to come for her once he became a Titled Douluo.
• Di Ruier returned to the forest, where Di Tian brought her through a portal to meet the Silver Dragon King.
• The Silver Dragon King explained that Deities had caused past Emperor Auspicious Beasts to disappear and said the God Realm’s weakening control over Douluo Star might offer the Soul Beasts a rare opportunity.

The Silver Dragon King explained her plan to use the Star Dou Great Forest’s growing strength and Life Force to heal her wounds, while Di Ruier warned that war with humanity could devastate the Soul Beasts. The Silver Dragon King urged patience and told Di Tian to bring Di Ruier into the Forest’s affairs, leaving her in charge of liaising with the Holy Spirit Cult.

• The Silver Dragon King explained that weakened God Realm control gave her a chance to heal by gathering Life Force across the continent, and that the Star Dou Great Forest could reveal its full strength.
• Di Ruier warned that a war with humans could wipe out Soul Beast generations and argued for ending the ancient hatred without conflict.
• The Silver Dragon King said Di Tian was already using human divisions to create chaos before the Soul Beasts entered the conflict, then sent Di Ruier back through a Spatial Tunnel.

• Di Tian introduced Di Ruier to the Holy Spirit Cult’s Great Elder as the Emperor Auspicious Beast and declared that her will represented the Star Dou Great Forest’s will.

After a year of upheaval across the continent, Huo Yuhao completed his self-condensed Seventh Soul Ring in seclusion at the Body Sect and reached Soul Sage level. He emerged with a golden Martial Soul Avatar, a stronger body, and the ability to wield the Ice Dragon King's Absolute Zero power, then received Du Busi's summons.

• The Clear Sky Sect returned to the world, and Shrek Academy invited its two Limit Douluo sect masters to nominal positions at the Sea God Pavilion as tensions with the Sun Moon Empire intensified.
• Huo Yuhao reached Level 70 but delayed obtaining a Soul Ring, choosing instead to create a Self-Condensing Soul Ring suited to his Spirit Eyes Martial Soul.
• Huo Yuhao used his spiritual energy, Bloodline Power, stored Soul Power, and World Spiritual Energy to form a golden Seventh Soul Ring while Du Busi guarded the Body Sect.
• After the ring was completed, Huo Yuhao examined his changes and found that his Martial Soul Avatar had strengthened his body enough to let him borrow the Ice Dragon King's Absolute Zero power safely.
• Huo Yuhao left seclusion, causing his cultivation chamber to crumble, and Du Busi summoned him to come at once.

Huo Yuhao tested his newly awakened Soul Sage strength against Du Busi, using his Truth Domain to seize control of the energy around them and gain the upper hand. Du Busi raised his power to rank ninety-eight and expanded into a thousand-meter giant, forcing Huo Yuhao to face his serious combat stance.

• Du Busi took Huo Yuhao to a remote, snow-covered mountain range for a serious spar.
• Huo Yuhao activated his Truth Domain, breaking down and controlling Du Busi's soul power and the surrounding World Spiritual Energy.
• Du Busi struggled to advance through the energy Huo Yuhao controlled and realized that his apparent attacks were not reaching Huo Yuhao's true body.
• Du Busi increased his power from rank ninety-six to rank ninety-eight, tearing open spatial rifts that destabilized Huo Yuhao's domain.
• Du Busi absorbed energy through the rifts and grew his True Form Martial Soul into a thousand-meter giant as he declared he was getting serious.

Huo Yuhao tested his strength against Du Busi, countering the Limit Douluo’s poison attack with time manipulation and absolute-zero ice before the two ended their battle. Du Busi warned him to prioritize survival, and the pair prepared to return to the sect to discuss developments on the Douluo Continent.

• Du Busi recovered his soul power while Huo Yuhao gathered World Spiritual Energy through the Truth Domain.
• Du Busi activated his Gold-Grade Martial Soul Secondary Awakening and attacked Huo Yuhao with a spatially collapsing poison sphere.
• Huo Yuhao used time manipulation and absolute-zero ice to seal and propel the sphere back toward Du Busi, who detonated it as the attack reached him.

• Du Busi assessed Huo Yuhao’s combat ability, warned him to flee from powerful enemies rather than risk his life, and Huo Yuhao promised to stay cautious.
• Huo Yuhao asked about events on the Douluo Continent, and Du Busi said they would discuss them after returning to the sect.

Huo Yuhao learned that the Sun Moon Empire and Holy Spirit Cult had become a major threat as Shrek Academy’s power and reputation weakened. He left the Body Sect for the Far North, where Snow Empress and Ice Empress reported that conflict with the Ice Sea had worsened, and he prepared to inspect the situation.

• Great Elder Jin Peng explained that Shrek Academy had restructured Sea God Pavilion after Niu Tian and Tai Tan joined, while the Sun Moon Empire and Holy Spirit Cult had revealed three Limit Douluo-level fighters.
• Jin Peng warned that the Sun Moon Empire’s Soul Tool advantage left the other empires and Shrek Academy at a disadvantage, and Huo Yuhao said the Body Sect and Heaven Dou Empire would rely on themselves.
• Huo Yuhao announced that he would travel to the Far North to secure a means of resisting the Sun Moon Empire for at least three years, and Du Busi approved his departure.
• Huo Yuhao flew to the Far North and found Snow Empress, Ice Empress, other fierce beasts, and several Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts waiting for him.
• Snow Empress told Huo Yuhao that the Mermaid Race had brought reinforcements and that the Elemental Tide had given Sea Soul Beasts a battlefield advantage, so he decided to inspect the situation at the Ice Palace with the Spirit of the Ice Dragon.

Huo Yuhao reviewed how the Mermaid Race and Demonic Soul Great White Sharks had turned the conflict with the Far North against Snow Empress’s forces. He ordered the Far North to prepare for a direct battle, then faced the assembled Sea Soul Beasts at the border.

• Huo Yuhao learned that the Mermaid Race had used the Sea Princess’s control of Water Element to flood the battlefield and reverse the Far North’s advantage.
• The Demonic Soul Great White Sharks joined the conflict, slaughtering weaker Far North soul beasts and helping the Ice Sea reclaim its waters.

• Snow Empress accepted Huo Yuhao’s command and directed Bing'er to have Ah Tai and Xiao Bai return the soul beasts near the battlefield to their habitats.
• The Far North’s forces gathered at the border as the Sea Princess led the Sea Soul Beasts forward, with the Demonic Soul Great White Sharks charging at the front.

Huo Yuhao secretly seized control of the Water Element during the battle between the Far North and the Sea Soul Beasts, turning the Sea Princess’s elemental advantage against her forces. The Sea Princess and Xiao Bai regrouped amid the devastation, while Huo Yuhao’s identity as the unseen saboteur remained undisclosed to them.

• The Sea Princess ordered Xiao Bai and the Demonic Soul Great White Shark Kings to wait for an opening while the merfolk advanced on the Far North.
• Snow Empress and the Far North’s soul beasts clashed with the Sea Princess’s Water Element assault, and Ice Empress raised the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain to counter it.

• Huo Yuhao took control of the Water Element, severing the merfolk’s Spiritual Power network and turning the currents into a crushing trap for the Sea Soul Beasts.
• The Sea Princess struggled to rescue her clansmen, while Xiao Bai confronted her and she blamed an unseen saboteur.

Huo Yuhao summoned the Ice Dragon King’s divine power through a battlefield-formed array, freezing the invading Sea Soul Beasts and forcing the Sea Princess’s defeat. After the Far North’s beasts submitted to him, he ordered the surviving high-cultivation Sea Soul Beasts taken to the Ice Palace and the rest fed to the Spirit of the Ice Dragon.

• The Sea Princess ordered a retreat as the Far North’s attacks overwhelmed her forces, and Xiao Bai led the Demonic Soul Great White Sharks in clearing a path.
• The Sea Princess detonated her Water Element energy to delay the Far North’s forces, but the battlefield’s elements completed Huo Yuhao’s hidden Formation.

• Huo Yuhao told the Ice Empress and Snow Empress to take Sea Soul Beasts above one hundred thousand years to the Ice Palace and feed the lower-cultivation corpses to the Spirit of the Ice Dragon.

Huo Yuhao restrained the Sea Princess in an ice formation and extracted a portion of her cultivation, then used it to save her injured daughter. He left both mermaids under controlled formations as other powerful Sea Soul Beasts began to awaken.

• The Sea Princess awakened pinned by ice pillars, with her Spiritual Power, Soul Power, and senses suppressed.
• Huo Yuhao activated a formation that painfully drew out the Sea Princess's Mermaid's Tear and reduced her cultivation by a hundred thousand years.

• Huo Yuhao gave the Golden Pearl to the Crown Mermaid, whose critical injuries rapidly healed as he altered her formation to regulate her power.
• Huo Yuhao left to monitor the other Fierce Beasts and Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts as they began to awaken.

Huo Yuhao brought the defeated Mermaid Race to the Ice Palace and forced the Sea Princess to choose between defying Sea God and securing her clansmen’s survival. She agreed to give him the Mermaid Race’s generations of knowledge about Sea God, and Huo Yuhao led her into a hidden underground space.

• Snow Empress allowed the merfolk to use limited Spiritual Power to endure the journey, while Huo Yuhao explained that their hardships were meant to make them more submissive.

• With the hourglass running down, the Sea Princess agreed, and Huo Yuhao released her and the Crown Mermaid’s seals before draining their Soul Power and Spiritual Power.
• Huo Yuhao sent Liya and the Crown Mermaid to manage their clansmen, then led the weakened Sea Princess into a concealed space beneath the Ice Palace.

Huo Yuhao searched the Sea Princess’s memories and learned how the First Sea God used the Mermaid Race’s prayers to establish his godhood. He forced the Sea Princess to accept a modified ritual that would taint Tang San’s Sea Godhood, then left the Far North to head for the Star Dou Great Forest.

• Huo Yuhao spent six days extracting the Sea Princess’s memories and discovered how the First Sea God had made the Mermaid Race gather Power of Faith through prayer.
• Huo Yuhao learned that Tang San had inherited the Sea Godhood, neglected the Mermaid Race, and used Sea Soul Beasts to monitor a Small World on another continent.
• Huo Yuhao altered the Mermaid Race’s prayer ritual to introduce concepts that conflicted with the Sea Godhood, then made the Sea Princess sign a Soul Contract and follow it.
• Huo Yuhao ordered Snow Empress to oversee the mermaids as they performed the ritual seven times, and instructed the Sea Princess to spread it among other Sea Soul Beasts within a year.
• Huo Yuhao told Snow Empress to continue the Sea Swallowing Plan and left the Far North for the Star Dou Great Forest.

Di Ruier enlisted the Myriad Demon King to monitor the Holy Spirit Cult and punish its worst offenders, forcing the cult to rein in its Evil Soul Masters.

• Di Ruier rushed to meet Huo Yuhao, embraced him, and left with him for the Star Dou Great Forest's core region.

He offered to help her recover with knowledge of the remnants of two God Kings and another place tied to the Dragon Clan, and she considered his proposal.

• The Silver Dragon King challenged Huo Yuhao's claims about overthrowing the God Realm, but his argument about its control over humanity and godhood made her listen.
