Chapter Summaries

Spirit Hall investigators confirmed that Yi Linlie’s patrol team had killed the Fallen Soul Master Niger, and Nangong Yanxue healed the wounded civilians. A new distress signal from Cold Stone Town sent Ling Yi and his companions rushing toward the Northern Territory, where thousands of lives might be in danger.

• Wen Maoxiang questioned Yi Linlie, identified the dead Fallen Soul Master as Niger, and ordered Nangong Yanxue and Bai Ge to help the wounded.

• Ling Yi, Ah Yin, Shelly, and others set off on a giant pinkish-white rabbit toward the danger zone.

Ling Yi explained why he had mobilized Lingyun City’s strongest fighters to answer Jiu Lan’s emergency signal from Cold Stone Town, revealing that the town lay near the Slaughter City. In Cold Stone Town, Hannibal’s followers held the residents captive while he prepared to select people as food.

• In Cold Stone Town, nearly two thousand residents crowded inside the Spirit Hall Branch while Wen Maoxiang lay injured and Nangong Yanxue tried to heal him.
• Hannibal’s black-armored subordinate reported that more than seven hundred townspeople had been taken to the tavern and asked when the remaining residents should be delivered.
• Hannibal threatened the subordinate, said he would hand the remaining people to Da Mo after selecting suitable ingredients, and ordered his followers to bring him the Healing System Soul Ancestor.
• Hannibal split the mayor in half and consumed his blood as eight non-red soul rings flickered behind him.

Yi Linlie and the survivors of Cold Stone Town waited in the Spirit Hall Branch as powerful Fallen Soul Masters threatened the town. Yue Guan and Gui Mei arrived as reinforcements, but a sudden cry from a nearby building drew Yue Guan away.

• A delicate shout came from a nearby small building, and Yue Guan rushed to its rooftop.

Ling Yi and his companions arrived in Cold Stone Town as Yue Guan and Gui Mei fought Hannibal, a powerful Fallen Soul Master protected by a ten-thousand-year Soul Bone. While Chen Xin and Dugu Bo joined the battle, Ling Yi went to the Spirit Hall Branch and healed the injured defenders and townspeople with Heavenly Rain.

• Hannibal stared at Chen Xin and shouted into the void.

Slaughter City’s Enforcement Team attacked Cold Stone Town to replenish the Blood Pool, setting off battles against Chen Xin, Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and the Spirit Hall defenders. Ling Yi’s group held the branch under siege as the major fighters faced powerful Fallen Soul Masters, and the fight remained unresolved.

• Jeffrey Dahmer arrived to support Hannibal, identified Chen Xin as his target, and summoned his Emerald Devil Bird Martial Soul while dozens of Slaughter City fighters surrounded Cold Stone Town.
• Sauron ordered the Fallen Soul Masters to kill the defenders quickly, and Hannibal and Dahmer’s team launched attacks on the Spirit Hall branch and its fighters.

• Ling Yi sent Wen Maoxiang and Bai Ge to support Bibi Dong and had Nangong Yanxue heal and strengthen them, allowing Bibi Dong to gain the advantage over her Soul Emperor opponent.
• Ah Rou intercepted a Fallen Soul Master who attacked from the air, while Yi Linlie and his companions gathered around Ling Yi to protect him.

Ling Yi and his allies faced Slaughter City's forces in Cold Stone Town after the Slaughter King extended a blood-red screen that sealed most Soul Skills. Dugu Bo countered with staff techniques, but Bibi Dong and the others were in danger, so Ling Yi sent Ah Rou to help them while Erlang guarded him.

• Jeffrey Dahmer and the other Fallen Soul Masters called for aid, and a blood-red screen spread from the northwest to cover Cold Stone Town.
• The Slaughter King ordered the screen extended because he wanted the blood of the powerful Soul Masters fighting in the town to replenish Slaughter City's dwindling energy.
• The screen prevented most Soul Masters from using Soul Skills, and Freddy wounded Gui Mei as Chen Xin and Dugu Bo realized what had happened.
• Jeffrey Dahmer charged Chen Xin and Dugu Bo, but Dugu Bo used emerald armor and a dragon-patterned staff to knock him back and take over the fight.
• Yang Shelly and Ah Yin held off the Fallen Soul Masters with their spear techniques, while Bibi Dong, Wen Maoxiang, and Bai Ge struggled without their Soul Skills.
• Ling Yi noticed their peril and told Ah Rou to assist them, assuring her that Erlang would protect him.

Erlang overwhelmed Sauron and the Fallen Soul Masters in Cold Stone Town, then revealed a remarkable Soul Ring configuration that drew the Slaughter King's attention.

• Erlang forced Sauron to the ground despite Sauron's high rank and use of powerful Soul Skills.
• Sauron retreated with the other Fallen Soul Masters as Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei closed in.
• Ling Yi considered the risk of Tang Chen and the Asura God intervening, then ordered Erlang to strike down Sauron and the other Fallen Soul Masters.
• Erlang split the attackers with a gigantic blade, revealing five black Soul Rings and one red Soul Ring as Chen Xin demanded to know how he could use Soul Skills.
• Ling Yi noticed a hostile presence watching Erlang through the Blood Red Light Screen, while the Slaughter King suspected Erlang was another deity's chosen successor.

After Slaughter City’s attack destroyed Cold Stone Town, Ling Yi helped relocate its survivors and revealed that he had saved Yi Linlie by treating his heart. Ling Yi explained that Sauron’s Heart Blood might awaken Yi Linlie’s dormant soul power, and tested the possibility as the chapter ended.

In Spirit City, Qian Xunji planned to use Lingyun City’s new Titled Douluo to reshape the balance among the major factions, while Qian Daoliu considered intervening in Slaughter City.

• Dugu Bo asked why Ling Yi would not recruit Yi Linlie into Lingyun City, and Ling Yi said Yi Linlie belonged in Cold Stone Town and could learn from Gui Mei in Snow Moon City.

• Qian Xunji planned to invite Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin to a title ceremony and promote Lingyun City as a replacement for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect among the Upper Three Sects.
• Qian Daoliu questioned Qian Xunji’s scheme and considered going to Slaughter City to deal with its Slaughter King.

Ling Yi met Yu Xiaogang at Kenan City’s South Gate and offered to help him advance his Light Sacred Dragon bloodline, but Yu Xiaogang refused and left for a village where he cared for the wounded Hannibal and fed Luo San Pao. The chapter left Yu Xiaogang cultivating with Luo San Pao after recalling that its Blood Shadow Demon Dragon power came from a dangerous, unstable bloodline experiment.

• Ling Yi offered Yu Xiaogang more Star Moon Dew and a place in Lingyun City, but Yu Xiaogang said he had abandoned the Light Sacred Dragon path and could not leave the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
• Yu Xiaogang entered Kenan City, bought supplies, and went to a village where he cooked Ten Tonifying Herbs Soup for Hannibal, who criticized it and urged him to capture people for food.
• Yu Xiaogang rejected Hannibal’s suggestion and demanded that Hannibal recover and take him to Slaughter City, as well as honor his promised Blood Essence Fruit trade.
• Yu Xiaogang collected a second jar of soup from an old man and drank it in the woods before bringing out Luo San Pao and feeding it beef and mutton.
• Yu Xiaogang recalled Ling Yi explaining that Luo San Pao’s Blood Shadow Demon Dragon power came from a failed attempt to combine his blood with Demon Dragon Zi Xi’s, and that feeding Luo San Pao nourishing food could help them both grow.

Ling Yi watched Yu Xiaogang abandon the Light Sacred Dragon route for the uncertain Blood Shadow Demon Dragon, then reflected on his own reluctance to merge fully with heaven and earth. As his thoughts surged, Ling Yi entered a strange state of harmony with his surroundings, leaving the convoy’s companions and Dugu Bo and Chen Xin sensing a change.

• Ling Yi observed through roadside Blue Silver Grass as Yu Xiaogang drank the Ten Tonifying Herbs Soup, cultivated, and chose the Blood Shadow Demon Dragon path.
• Ling Yi considered how Yu Xiaogang might have advanced the Light Sacred Dragon bloodline with patience and clan support, but recognized that Yu Xiaogang was desperate to prove himself.
• Ling Yi questioned whether his fear of becoming cold and detached had made him resist the progress of spirit merging with heaven and earth.
• Ling Yi withdrew his Mental Strength and extended his Heart Power through the convoy, causing Chen Xin and Dugu Bo to sense that the sky, plants, and surroundings had changed.
• Yang Shelly, Ah Yin, and Ah Rou silently trusted Ling Yi as his thoughts clashed within his Sea of Consciousness and his body began to blend with the environment.

Ling Yi emerged from a profound state of meditation with his spiritual realm advanced to Constant Samadhi and his spirit formed into a Holy Embryo that could leave his body. As he tested its abilities and assessed his weakened physical state, Qian Daoliu agreed to wait in Spirit City for Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin, unaware of Ling Yi’s sudden breakthrough.

• Ling Yi held onto his desire to live and awakened from his near-merger with heaven and earth, realizing he had reached Constant Samadhi and entered the Fetal Breath state.
• Ling Yi manifested a spiritual Holy Embryo, explained his breakthrough to Yang Shelly and the other two women, and sent the Holy Embryo outside the carriage to cultivate in sunlight.
• Ling Yi returned the Holy Embryo to his body, examined his cultivation status, and wondered how many Qian Daolius he could defeat.
• In Spirit City, Qian Daoliu set aside a sudden ominous feeling and agreed with Qian Xunji to wait for Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin before traveling to Slaughter City.
• Qian Daoliu looked forward to meeting Chen Jianjun, while Ling Yi judged that a Level 100 god who could not reliably defeat a veteran Level 99 Douluo had failed.

Fei Bai and Jiu Gao discussed Chen Xin’s breakthrough, the Heaven Dou Empire’s expanding Royal Knights, and the growing influence of Lingyun City. In Lingyun City, Chen Jianjun declared his intention to join them, then prepared to spar with Erlang before traveling to Spirit City for the Title Conferment Ceremony.

• Fei Bai told Jiu Gao that he had only just learned Chen Xin had become a Titled Douluo, and Jiu Gao explained that the news had spread widely ahead of the ceremony in Spirit City.

• Jiu Gao criticized the empire’s decision to bypass the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce for armor, and Ku Fan told Wu Jinyuan that Xue Ye had blocked private trade with the company after Ling Yi refused his recruitment.
• Ku Fan introduced Gordon, a veteran from the Northern Territory and a former attendee of Ling Yi’s lectures, as a potential connection for discreet trade with Lingyun City.

• Chen Jianjun turned his attention to Erlang’s unusual Soul Ring configuration and said he wanted to exchange pointers with him first.

Ling Yi traveled toward Spirit City with Chen Xin and the others, while Chen Jianjun remained secluded after his defeat by Erlang. The group arrived outside Spirit City to an elaborate welcome from Spirit Hall, whose respect was aimed chiefly at the two Titled Douluo.

• Ling Yi asked Chen Xin about Chen Jianjun, and Chen Xin said his father would eventually get used to the defeat and seclusion.
• Chen Xin learned that Ling Yi had reached Level 71, and Ling Yi explained that his Soul Power had risen after an insight and a night of sleep.

• After nearly four days of travel, Ling Yi’s party arrived outside Spirit City, where Spirit Hall sent a grand procession to welcome them, chiefly in honor of Chen Xin and Chen Jianjun.

• Zhang Ji’s welcoming party greeted Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin while pointedly ignoring Ling Yi, creating an awkward standoff until Bishop Qi arrived and welcomed them.

• Qian Xunji challenged Ling Yi about his reputation for foreseeing the future and demanded to know his true scheme regarding Blue Silver Rice, leaving Mussorgsky and Kui Qi baffled.

Qian Xunji confronted Ling Yi over his role in spreading Blue Silver Rice and Blue Silver Grass, while Ling Yi argued that Spirit Hall had also benefited from their growth. Ling Yi revealed his evolved martial soul and declared that his continent-wide planting campaign was meant to make him emperor of all Blue Silver Grass, leaving Qian Xunji stunned.

• Qian Xunji used his rank-ninety-five pressure on Ling Yi, but Ling Yi remained unmoved.
• Qian Xunji accused Ling Yi of using Spirit Hall's promotion of Blue Silver Rice to build the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce, and Ling Yi pointed out that Spirit Hall's strength had grown as well.
• Qian Xunji asked why Ling Yi had promoted Blue Silver Grass across the continent, while Chen Jianjun prepared to intervene if the meeting turned hostile.
• Ling Yi revealed his seven-ring Green Wood Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, surprising Qian Xunji with his cultivation and its evolution from ordinary Blue Silver Grass.
• Ling Yi explained that he had spread Blue Silver Grass to become its emperor, then made grass grow throughout the Pope's Palace as Qian Xunji and the others watched in astonishment.

Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu discussed Ling Yi’s request to strengthen Spirit Hall’s presence in Lingyun City and decided to approve it, while reflecting on their own plans for the Angel God’s power. The chapter ended with Qian Xunji asking whether Ling Yi’s power over Blue Silver Grass came from faith and could lead him to become a god.

• Qian Daoliu judged Ling Yi superior to himself and possibly Tang Chen in wisdom and personal qualities, but admitted he could not discern Ling Yi’s purpose in requesting a Spirit Hall Main Hall in Lingyun City.
• Qian Daoliu concluded that Ling Yi focused on martial souls and strength rather than worldly power, and Qian Xunji ordered Spirit Hall to send more people to Lingyun City.
• Qian Xunji told Qian Daoliu that he had chosen a woman to bear his child, but intended to wait until she became a Titled Douluo so their offspring could inherit a strong Angel martial soul.
• Qian Xunji recalled that he had failed to qualify for the Angel God Trial and considered making Spirit Hall rule the continent to expand faith in the Angel God.
• Qian Daoliu promised to support Qian Xunji’s ambitions and hold off Tang Chen if necessary.
• Qian Xunji asked Qian Daoliu whether Ling Yi’s influence over Blue Silver Grass came from faith and could help him reach Level 99 or become a god.

Qian Daoliu judged Ling Yi’s Green Wood Blue Silver Emperor and rapid cultivation gave him the potential to become a Titled Douluo and perhaps reach Level 99. After Ling Yi returned from the Pope’s Palace, Finis met him outside the Library Tower and was immediately captivated by his appearance.

• Qian Daoliu explained to Qian Xunji that Ling Yi’s innate domain and early spiritual conception gave him exceptional potential, though reaching Level 99 remained uncertain.
• Qian Xunji reacted coldly as Qian Daoliu predicted Ling Yi would become a Healing System Titled Douluo.
• Ling Yi, Chen Jianjun, and Erlang returned toward their courtyard with Mussorgsky and Kui Qi after leaving the Pope’s Palace.
• Finis, a Level 74 Blazing Fire Spirit Hawk Battle Soul Saint, met the group outside the Library Tower and introduced herself to Ling Yi.
• Kui Qi led Ling Yi and his companions away, while Finis watched Ling Yi depart and became visibly infatuated with him.

Major powers gathered in Spirit City for the Title Conferment Ceremony, where Dai Tianqi challenged Ling Yi’s late arrival and Yu Yuanzhen, Xue Ye, Tang Sheng, and Ning Fengzhi responded in ways that appeared to support Ling Yi and Lingyun City.

After Chen Jianjun and Chen Xin revealed their strength as Titled Douluo and invited challengers, Ling Yi provoked Dai Tianqi by asking him to demonstrate the Hell White Tiger, leaving the gathered leaders tense and uncertain.
