Chapter Summaries

After two months of training with Snow Empress, Ling Yu reached level 50 and brought his comprehension of the Heaven Sword to ninety percent, but his progress stalled. Wufeng explained that Ling Yu needed to create his own swordsmanship, and Ling Yu decided to ask Snow Empress for a suitable Soul Beast before obtaining his fifth Soul Ring.

• Ling Yu reviewed his swordsmanship progress and realized Snow Empress's guidance had helped him reach ninety percent comprehension of the Heaven Sword.
• Ling Yu asked Wufeng why his comprehension had stopped progressing, and Wufeng told him to transcend the sword technique by combining it with his own Sword Dao.
• Wufeng advised Ling Yu to postpone absorbing the Evil God Orb until he encountered a Godhood Inheritance, explaining that its time attribute might help him gain a powerful time-type soul skill.
• Wufeng explained that the Evil God Orb could help Ling Yu obtain a growth-type Soul Ring whose age could increase by devouring energy.
• Ling Yu worried that hunting a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the Extreme North would anger Snow Empress and Ice Empress, but Wufeng suggested asking them to find a vicious, unpopular beast.
• Ling Yu agreed to speak with Snow Empress and planned to obtain his fifth Soul Ring the next day.

Ling Yu reached level fifty and asked Snow Empress about finding a powerful spiritual-type Soul Beast for his next soul ring. Snow Empress planned to invest in him as a possible way to change Soul Beasts’ fate, and she and Ice Empress considered making the troublesome One-Eyed his fifth soul ring.

• Ice Empress complained that One-Eyed had slaughtered Soul Beasts across the Far North, and Snow Empress agreed to deal with him.
• Ling Yu asked whether the Far North had a brutal spiritual-type Soul Beast he could hunt for a soul ring, and Ice Empress mocked his request for one a hundred thousand years old.
• Snow Empress promised to find Ling Yu a suitable Soul Beast, then sent him out so she could speak privately with Ice Empress.
• Snow Empress argued that humans could help break the rules forcing Soul Masters to hunt Soul Beasts, and Ice Empress praised Ling Yu’s character and talent.
• Snow Empress suggested investing in Ling Yu, and Ice Empress realized she might mean making One-Eyed his fifth soul ring.

• Wufeng reassured Ling Yu that Snow Empress would likely help him find a suitable soul ring, though she would impose conditions.
• Snow Empress told Ling Yu that she and Bing'er had agreed he could hunt a hundred-thousand-year spiritual and spatial-type Soul Beast in the Far North.

• Ling Yu accepted the challenge and looked forward to gaining a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone.

The Snow Empress told Ling Yu about the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus, a rare dragon-blooded Soul Beast that grew stronger through slaughter and could rival gods. After learning that she had crippled it and left it badly wounded, Ling Yu agreed to hunt it for its soul ring.

• The Snow Empress told Ling Yu that the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus had an exceptionally powerful mixed dragon bloodline and could rival nearly any Soul Beast at the same level.
• The Snow Empress explained that the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus was born from dragon blood and wicked thoughts, grew through slaughter without cultivation bottlenecks, and faced a heavenly tribulation every twenty thousand years.
• The Snow Empress recounted how the first Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus was killed by the Light Dragon King and the second grew strong enough to contend with a First-Rank God before perishing in the God Realm War.
• The Snow Empress revealed that she had crippled the current Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus and that it remained seriously injured at about sixty percent of its peak strength.
• Ling Yu considered the danger and agreed to hunt the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus.

The Snow Empress told Ling Yu about One-Eyed, the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus, and made killing him a test of whether the Far North would support Ling Yu’s plan to change the rules. After three days of preparation, Ling Yu reached One-Eyed’s territory and weighed his own abilities against the beast’s fearsome soul skills.

• The Snow Empress explained that One-Eyed had devoured a Dragon King-level bloodline and malevolent intent, and that she had wounded him when he threatened to massacre the Far North.
• Ling Yu accepted the challenge, hoping to help Na'er change the rules and prevent another God Realm war.
• The Snow Empress considered binding herself to Ling Yu as a way to survive her approaching seven-hundred-thousand-year tribulation, then briefed him on One-Eyed’s soul skills.
• Three days later, Ling Yu arrived near a white lake in the Far North and considered launching a sneak attack.
• Ling Yu reviewed how his abilities could counter One-Eyed’s attribute-reducing Hidden Dragon, but worried that Dragon God's Wrath could seal his Soul Power for three minutes.

Ling Yu entered a deserted basin and was attacked by the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus, a powerful Ferocious Beast hiding beneath the frozen lake. After it recognized the Dragon King auras on him, it explained its singular consciousness and ancient status, leaving Ling Yu questioning why it seemed unlike the rampaging beast Snow Empress had described.

• Ling Yu searched the empty basin with his Mangekyo Sharingan but could not sense the hidden presence beneath the lake.
• The Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus burst through the ice, and Ling Yu used his Golden Phoenix Wings to escape its attack.
• Ling Yu studied the enormous beast and judged its physical strength greater than Erming's and A Tai's, rivaled only by Scarlet King.
• The Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus recognized Ling Yu as the human brought back by Snow Empress, Ice Empress, and A Tai, and sensed the Fire Dragon King and Water Dragon King auras on him.
• The Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus said its consciousness persisted across its repeated rebirths and claimed only the Dragon God could suppress it.
• Ling Yu asked why it seemed calm when Snow Empress had described it as unconscious and slaughtering freely throughout the Far North.

Ling Yu faced the Bloodthirsty Tyrannosaurus, One-Eyed, and used his newly created sword technique to stop its attack. One-Eyed praised Ling Yu and denied having any connection to Evil Soul Masters or the Abyss Plane, leaving Ling Yu waiting for an explanation.

• Ling Yu suspected that the scale on his chest had caused One-Eyed to treat him with unusual caution.
• One-Eyed launched ten blood-red ripples at Ling Yu, who countered with his sword technique, Extreme Flash.
• One-Eyed praised Ling Yu's strength and talent after he blocked the attack.
• Ling Yu asked whether One-Eyed was connected to Evil Soul Masters or the Abyss Plane.
• One-Eyed called them weaklings and stinking rats, and Ling Yu cautiously waited for him to continue.

One-Eyed revealed his origins, his history in the God Realm war, and his true Quasi-God strength to Ling Yu. He offered to become Ling Yu’s fifth soul ring if Ling Yu agreed to help revive the Dragon Race.

• One-Eyed explained that he had been born from the Dragon Race’s evil thoughts and dragon blood, and that his consciousness could survive even if his body was destroyed.
• One-Eyed recounted how he became a First-Rank God during the God Realm war, absorbed the blood and divine consciousness of enemy gods, and died fighting a First-Rank God.

• One-Eyed told Ling Yu that the Abyss leader and the gods above were threats he had been avoiding, and that Ling Yu’s arrival offered hope for reviving the Dragon Race.
• One-Eyed offered to sacrifice himself as Ling Yu’s fifth soul ring if Ling Yu promised to help revive the Dragon Race.

Ling Yu questioned One-Eyed about his motives for offering to sacrifice himself, and learned that the dragon sought a chance to overcome the God Realm’s restrictions on the Dragon Race. Ling Yu agreed to help revive the Dragon Race after becoming a god, while One-Eyed explained that his immortal soul would become an additional combat companion rather than a conventional soul ring.

• Ling Yu asked why One-Eyed had rampaged in the Far North and sought out Di Tian, and One-Eyed revealed that he had sensed Ling Yu’s unusual Dragon Race aura.
• One-Eyed said he would face the Divine Beast Tribulation within five years and believed the God Realm would prevent him from becoming a god, even if the Abyss invasion caused it to disappear.
• Ling Yu agreed to cooperate and promised to help revive the Dragon Race after becoming a god, noting that he had already made the same promise to Na'er.
• One-Eyed recognized Ling Yu’s affection for Na'er and said he would have offered his sacrifice immediately if he had known about their connection.
• Ling Yu asked how One-Eyed’s immortal soul would exist after the sacrifice, and One-Eyed explained that he would become both a soul ring and a battle companion who could take form.

One-Eyed began sacrificing himself to Ling Yu, sealing most of his immense power for Ling Yu to absorb as he grew stronger. He revealed that the sacrifice would bind him to Ling Yu as a servant and leave him unable to return even if Ling Yu became a god.

• One-Eyed began his sacrifice, sending a crimson pillar into the sky that made Soul Beasts across the Far North bow and shocked the Snow Empress and Ice Empress.
• One-Eyed warned Ling Yu that he could not absorb the dragon’s full power until his Spiritual Power and body reached the level of a Limit Douluo, so One-Eyed would seal his energy and release it gradually.
• One-Eyed promised Ling Yu a head soul bone with two spiritual skills and a torso soul bone that would strengthen his body and grant him a time-type skill.
• One-Eyed explained that his dragon sacrifice would make Ling Yu his master, giving Ling Yu control over his life and binding One-Eyed to him permanently.
• Wufeng recognized that One-Eyed was staking everything on Ling Yu because of the Dragon Scale and the powerful dragon auras Ling Yu carried.
