• As Lin Yan prepared to visit Jiang Nannan, Electrolux told him that he had located his former Undead Demiplane.

Electrolux took Lin Yan to the bottom of the Undead Demiplane’s abyss, where accumulated impurities had nurtured the Heavenly Flame called the Nether Soul Purifying Flame. Electrolux offered it to Lin Yan, who accepted, and asked whether he wanted to refine it immediately or return another day.

• Electrolux explained that the abyss contained the Undead Demiplane’s lingering thoughts and miasma, which its incomplete laws could not erase.

• Electrolux asked whether Lin Yan intended to refine the flame immediately or return another day, promising to keep him safe.

Lin Yan and Electrolux entered the Undead Demiplane’s origin and found that it might be used to restore Electrolux’s divine soul, though the plan depended on a grand formation. After returning, Electrolux summoned the plane’s strongest undead to assess their power.

• Lin Yan postponed refining the Heavenly Flames and followed Electrolux into the Undead Demiplane’s origin in soul form.

Lin Yan seized the Nether Soul Purifying Flame’s Core Flame from the Undead Demiplane and endured its fierce resistance while refining it into his Emperor Flame. After nearly a day, he absorbed it completely, broke through to Soul Power Level 50, and received a dramatic increase in spiritual power.

• Luo Ye dismissed Lin Yan as no threat, while Meng Hongchen became infatuated with him and Xiao Hongchen grew jealous.
• The referee announced a seven-versus-seven team battle between Shrek Academy and Zhengtian Academy, and Wang Yan secured Lin Yan’s agreement to compete.

• The referee declared Shrek Academy the winner, and hundreds of thousands of spectators cheered.

After dominating the round-robin stage, Lin Yan joined Shrek Academy’s preparations for the knockout rounds and accepted invitations to the Starlight Auction House’s top-tier auction. The chapter ended as the auction began, with Lin Yan curious about its final lot.

• Lin Yan returned to the Undead Plane after crushing Zhengtian Academy without revealing a Spirit Ring, and Shrek’s next two opponents surrendered rather than face him.
• After the round-robin stage ended, Wang Yan announced that Shrek would face Dou Ling Royal Academy, whose lineup included five Soul Kings, two Soul Ancestors, and Soul Engineers equipped with Soul Tools.

• Wang Yan offered Shrek’s credit voucher, and Lin Yan bought the Sun God Stone for twenty-three million Gold Soul Coins.

At the Star Luo auction, Xu Jiujiu revealed a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast embryo sealed inside a Ninth-Level Soul Tool, and Lin Yan discovered it was the Ice Jade Scorpion that had once hunted him. He planned to let Luo Ye target the embryo and then secretly take it for himself, leaving the auction about to begin.

• Xu Jiujiu unveiled the sealed embryo and explained that it could yield a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring and Soul Bone or potentially grant its absorber a Second Martial Soul.
• The Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy delegation realized the Sealing God Platform and embryo had come from their empire and suspected a traitor had sold them.
• Lin Yan secretly used his spiritual power to identify the embryo as the Hundred Thousand Year Ice Jade Scorpion, whose transformation had been prompted by lingering damage from his Fire of Wisdom.
• Lin Yan decided he wanted to personally ensure the Ice Jade Scorpion died and considered how to take the embryo without drawing attention.
• Lin Yan planned to let Luo Ye attempt to seize the embryo from Mingde Hall, then steal it during the resulting ambush.

Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu schemed to weaken the Sun Moon Empire while the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo auction ended with Xiao Hongchen winning it for 150 million Gold Soul Coins.

• Luo Ye revealed Ma Yuan’s plan to use himself as bait while a Soul Douluo spy secretly carried the disguised embryo out of Star Luo City.
• Lin Yan left the hotel, entered the Undead Plane, and emerged in disguise as the overseas Evil Soul Master Ni Baba.

Lin Yan secretly followed Luo Ye as Luo Ye ambushed Shadow, who was carrying a Soul Beast embryo out of Star Luo City. After Luo Ye killed Shadow, Lin Yan sent the Shadow Wraith to seize the corpse and embryo, prompting Luo Ye to pursue it.

• Lin Yan used the Heart Lamp to follow Luo Ye to a forest ambush site outside Star Luo City.
• Elder Ma gave Shadow the sealed Storage Soul Tool containing the embryo, and Shadow escaped the city while Elder Ma distracted those watching him.

• The Shadow Wraith seized Shadow’s corpse and the Storage Soul Tool containing the embryo before Luo Ye could claim them.
• Luo Ye angrily pursued the Shadow Wraith into the darkness.

Lin Yan returned to the Undead Demiplane with Shadow’s corpse, evaded Luo Ye, and stored the Ice Jade Scorpion Embryo before the tournament finals arrived. In the opening team battle between Shrek and Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, the other fighters withdrew to leave Lin Yan and Luo Ye facing off, and their extraordinary Spirit Rings stunned the crowd.

• Lin Yan escaped into the Undead Demiplane with the Shadow Wraith and Shadow’s corpse, while Luo Ye’s Treasure Mirror gave him a false identity and destination for the fugitive.
• Lin Yan decided to preserve the Ice Jade Scorpion Embryo as rare material, then returned to Star Luo City as the tournament advanced to its finals.

• Luo Ye revealed six black Spirit Rings and one red Spirit Ring, while Lin Yan answered with five unusual rings that stunned the spectators.

Lin Yan battled Luo Ye, whose Soul Devouring Blood Exchange mutation made his Purple Radiance Blood Demon Dragon increasingly powerful and unstable. After the arena barrier shattered and Huang Jinxu and Cheng Gang protected the audience, Luo Ye fused all seven soul rings into a final attack, leaving the fight unresolved.

• Luo Ye used his first three soul skills to enhance himself, but Lin Yan countered with Flame Devour and Flame Spirit Armor before trading blows with him using the Ice-Fire War Halberd.
• Lin Yan purified Luo Ye’s Blood Demon Breath and froze his claw, then injured him with a halberd strike and an Emperor Flame knee.
• Luo Ye activated his Martial Soul Avatar, and Lin Yan answered with his Wither-Bloom Calamity Flame Domain and Calamity Fire Descent to clash with Luo Ye’s Destruction Blood Light.
• The collision shattered the arena barrier, so Huang Jinxu and Cheng Gang joined their Soul Power to shield the audience from the energy storm.
• Lin Yan attacked Luo Ye’s dragon form with his halberd and destroyed his Purple Radiance Fiend Dragon using his Martial Soul Will and Dragon Form technique.
• As Lin Yan’s imperial might destabilized Luo Ye’s mind, Luo Ye fused his soul rings and unleashed the Seven-Ring Fusion Skill, Purple Radiance Blood Demon: Three-Aspect Annihilation.

Lin Yan defeated Luo Ye with his Tri-Colored Buddha Fury Fire Lotus, and the clash destroyed the arena and left a sea of lava. Luo Ye survived but was badly injured, while the Star Luo Empire and Shrek recognized Lin Yan’s frightening strength and Xu Jiawei considered how to deal with the threat.

• Luo Ye transformed into a Three-Headed Purple Radiance Blood Demon Dragon and unleashed a Tri-Aspect Destruction Torrent, which Lin Yan countered with his Tri-Colored Buddha Fury Fire Lotus.
• The collision tore open space and unleashed a destructive storm, forcing Huang Jinxu and Cheng Gang to use their Martial Soul Avatars to contain it within the arena.
• When the storm cleared, Luo Ye lay unconscious and badly injured above a sea of lava, while Lin Yan remained unharmed; Xu Jiawei learned that both fighters had displayed Titled Douluo-level power and abandoned his plans to kill Lin Yan.
• Song Yunzhi resolved to bring Lin Yan into Shrek’s Inner Courtyard after seeing his strength, while Xu Jiawei decided Luo Ye must not return alive to the Sun Moon Empire.
• Ma Yuan surrendered, retrieved Luo Ye after confirming he was alive, and carried him back to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy’s resting area.

After Shrek won the tournament, Lin Yan traveled alone to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to claim its treasures. There he confronted the immortal herb soul beasts and demanded that they submit, leaving their choice unresolved.

• Xu Jiawei announced Shrek's victory after the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy forfeited, and Lin Yan took the Soul Bones while leaving the Gold Soul Coins to the rest of Shrek.
• Lin Yan parted from Shrek and traveled to Sunset Forest, where he used Extreme-Cold Mystic Ice Fire to penetrate the Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flower poison miasma.
• Lin Yan reached the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and found seven immortal herb soul beasts with hundred-thousand-year cultivation among the valley's treasures.
• Youyou challenged Lin Yan, so he summoned a Frost Bone Dragon, a Shadow Wraith, a Lich, and two more Frost Bone Dragons to intimidate the herbs.
• Lin Yan accused Tang San of abandoning the immortal herbs and demanded that they submit or face death, while the herbs hesitated over their choice.

Lin Yan forced the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to submit, then used their treasures to temper his body. As he merged with the well and witnessed its history, he comprehended the Laws of Fire and Life.

• Lin Yan summoned Electrolux's godly aura, convincing Youyou and the other Immortal Herbs to obey him in exchange for a promise that he would spare their lives.
• Youyou gave Lin Yan Tang San's Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, which he read to learn about the herbs around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

• Lin Yan's Fire Intent sublimated into the Law of Fire, and his understanding of life later advanced into the Law of Life.

During his prolonged epiphany at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Lin Yan used the Wisdom Divine Light to deduce the Myriad Flames Cosmic Primordial Scripture and its cultivation formation. He outlined its three-layer Primordial Core Realm and future path to godhood through a Myriad Flames Golden Core.

• Lin Yan's epiphany ended, but the Wisdom Divine Light kept him in a state of unity with the Dao.

• Lin Yan deduced three layers for the Primordial Core Realm and planned to merge the three Primordial Cores into a Myriad Flames Golden Core to become a god.

Lin Yan completed his deduction of the Five Elements Six Directions Separation Flame Formation while in Unity of Heaven and Man, then realized he could use the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to forge a Yin-Yang Heavenly Flame. He began gathering the well’s ice-and-fire power around the Extreme Yang–Extreme Yin Stone, and the two springs formed a spinning Ice-Fire Taiji Diagram.

• Lin Yan reviewed his planned Golden Core, Sacred Embryo, and Primordial Spirit realms and focused on completing the Five Elements Six Directions Separation Flame Formation.

• Lin Yan stirred the well’s power with Yin-Yang Intent and the Law of Fire, causing its two springs to rotate into an Ice-Fire Taiji Diagram.
