Tang San entered the Hell Slaughter Arena after killing his way through the outer city, and the Asura God directed him to the King of Slaughter’s lounge instead of the ring. There, Tang San learned the King of Slaughter was his great-grandfather, Tang Chen, and opened the door while staying alert because a beast had taken over Tang Chen’s body.

• Di Lintian sought the Nightmare Emperor, an elusive 180,000-year Nightmare Beast whose fragile body prevented its clan from surviving fierce beast tribulations.

Di Lintian found the Nightmare Emperor at the Lake of Life and revealed his identity as the Star Dou Forest’s young prince from several thousand years earlier. He ordered the Nightmare Emperor to influence the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s will, leaving it with five days to carry out the task.

• Di Lintian departed, and the Nightmare Emperor sighed before merging back into the shadows.

Di Lintian stayed peacefully in Star Dou Forest while Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin entered to seek Ning Fengzhi’s eighth soul ring. Bibi Dong led Spirit Hall forces into the forest to hunt two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, setting the stage for a dangerous encounter.

• Di Lintian spent two quiet days in Star Dou Forest, teasing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion as he waited to return to the human world with the Nightmare Emperor.
• Ning Fengzhi, whose martial soul had evolved into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda, entered Star Dou Forest with Sword Douluo Chen Xin to find an eighth soul ring.

• Bibi Dong led Yue Guan, Gui Mei, five Platinum Grand Bishops, and dozens of red-robed cardinals into Star Dou Forest to hunt two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.
• Bibi Dong ordered her forces to infiltrate the core region without attacking before they reached it, then led the way into the forest.

Sword Douluo and Ning Fengzhi pursued a sixty-thousand-year Nine-Colored Deer, hoping to make it Ning Fengzhi’s eighth soul ring. The deer fought back, but Sword Douluo’s remaining sword shadows continued striking its defense.

• Sword Douluo attacked the Nine-Colored Deer by the lake, but it dodged his sword formation and fled.
• Ning Fengzhi used his Second: Speed skill to boost Sword Douluo, who caught up and sealed the deer’s escape with his fifth soul skill.

• Sword Douluo countered with his first and sixth soul skills, and his torrent of swords shattered the deer’s beam.
• The remaining sword shadows struck the Nine-Colored Deer’s blazing protective membrane.

• The Nightmare Emperor learned that the humans were heading directly for the Lake of Life and wondered why they had come.

• The Nightmare Emperor realized the intruders were likely targeting the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, so it sought help from Di Lintian.
• Di Lintian identified the intruders as Spirit Hall and decided that fighting Bibi Dong could fulfill his fifth trial.
• Xiong Jun flew into a rage upon hearing humans planned to hunt Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts and charged toward the core region with Di Lintian on his shoulder.
• Bibi Dong ordered Golden Eagle to scout the Lake of Life while her group hid nearby.
• Golden Eagle silently flew to the Lake of Life and found no Soul Beasts there.

Golden Eagle Douluo found the Lake of Life empty, and Bibi Dong arrived to confirm that its two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were missing. A distant rumble and powerful aura then suggested the Titan Giant Ape was approaching, so the expedition prepared to fight.

• Golden Eagle Douluo searched the Lake of Life and reported to Bibi Dong that he had found no Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
• Bibi Dong led Yue Guan, Gui Mei, the bishops, and the rest of the expedition to the lake, where they saw no beasts.

• A violent tremor and a ferocious aura came from afar, and Bibi Dong believed the Titan Giant Ape was still alive.
• Yue Guan ordered everyone to prepare for battle as he and Gui Mei activated their Martial Soul Possession and released their soul rings.

Bibi Dong and the Spirit Hall group faced a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that appeared at the Lake of Life, believing they might have to fight their way through. Hidden nearby, Di Lintian prepared to ambush Bibi Dong, leaving the confrontation poised to begin.

• A ferocious roar alerted Bibi Dong and the others, and Bibi Dong recognized that it did not belong to the Titan Giant Ape or the Sky Azure Bull Python.
• Bibi Dong summoned her Death Spider Emperor and prepared to face the approaching creature despite the restrictions of her Rakshasa God Trial.
• A gigantic Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear landed across the Lake of Life, and Bibi Dong realized its cultivation and aura exceeded those of an ordinary hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast.
• Bibi Dong considered fighting with her forces and keeping her escape method in reserve, while the bishops trembled at the bear's overwhelming presence.
• Di Lintian concealed himself nearby and waited for Xiong Jun to engage the Spirit Hall group so he could descend as the Dark Demon Dragon King and capture Bibi Dong.

Xiong Jun overwhelmed Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters at the Lake of Life, defeating Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo’s attacks with ease. As Bibi Dong prepared to join the battle, a dragon’s roar from deep in the forest stopped everyone and left them wondering whether an even stronger opponent was approaching.

• Bibi Dong ordered Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and the bishops to test Xiong Jun while she watched from the side.
