Chapter Summaries

Mo Lin, Qian Renxue, and Qilin purified the Evil Spirit Orcas, restoring the clan to Holy Hall Orcas. The grateful Sacred Tiger pledged the clan’s service to Mo Lin and recognized Ling Yao as the one who had revealed their plight.

• Qian Renxue used Angel Avatar to help Mo Lin and Qilin purify the Evil Spirit Orcas’ negative power.
• After more than two hours, the entire clan had transformed back into Holy Hall Orcas, and the exhausted Qian Renxue collapsed into Mo Lin’s arms.
• Baxia released the orcas, and Sacred Tiger thanked Mo Lin and offered the Holy Hall Orca Clan’s service.
• Mo Lin told Sacred Tiger that a friend had alerted him to the clan’s suffering, and Sacred Tiger guessed that he meant Ling Yao of the Spirit Dolphin Clan.

Mo Lin helped Sacred Tiger recover his memories of the Holy Hall Orca Clan’s corruption and concluded that Poseidon had arranged it to gain power through faith. Sacred Tiger learned that Poseidon had killed his parents after letting the corrupted whales spread destruction, and he was left furious at the calculation behind his clan’s suffering.

• Sacred Tiger told Mo Lin that Ming Jin had left the deep sea because its competition was fierce, then described how black Soul Power erupted during Ming Jin’s heavenly tribulation and corrupted the Holy Hall Orcas.
• Mo Lin used Double Full Hands to clarify Sacred Tiger’s chaotic memories from the first year of the corruption.
• Sacred Tiger remembered that the whales had rampaged for over a year before a powerful Sea Soul Master appeared and killed his parents.
• Mo Lin identified the Sea Soul Master as Poseidon and reasoned that Poseidon had allowed the whales to spread infamy before attacking them to gain worship and faith.
• Mo Lin explained that Poseidon had targeted the whale species because other Sea Soul Beasts resented their impact on ocean habitats, and Sacred Tiger grew enraged.

Mo Lin assigned Baxia to lead the recovered Holy Hall Orca Clan in locating and organizing other whale clans, then returned to the hotel with the exhausted Qian Renxue. In his spiritual world, he examined Tang Hao’s soul and Clear Sky Hammer as potential material for his experiments.

• Mo Lin told Sacred Tiger that other whale clans might also have been contaminated and said he still needed to purify them.
• Mo Lin ordered Baxia to guide the Holy Hall Orca Clan in finding whale clans, recording abnormal ones, and relocating them to the eastern island and deep sea.
• Baxia warned Mo Lin that his second brother Yazi was battle-hungry, but Mo Lin said he could prevent Yazi from attacking him.
• Mo Lin used Grand Luo Insight to return to the hotel with Qian Renxue and Qilin, then settled Qian Renxue in bed and sealed the room against spying.
• Mo Lin entered his spiritual world, where the Asura Demon Sword showed him a god’s divine consciousness and pointed out Tang Hao’s soul and Clear Sky Hammer.
• Mo Lin considered experimenting with Tang Hao’s soul and consuming the Clear Sky Hammer to test its effects.

Mo Lin swallowed and absorbed Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, using Six Treasury Immortal Thief to digest its physical form. In his spiritual world, he learned that the energy had strengthened the Heaven-Devouring Titan Python and Space-Evading Mantis, but their advancement might bring deadly heavenly tribulations that Mo Lin would have to face for them.

• Mo Lin confined Spirit Binding and General Dispatch to his surroundings, then swallowed Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.
• Mo Lin used Six Treasury Immortal Thief to digest the Clear Sky Hammer, absorbing its energy into his body and two of his souls.
• Mo Lin discovered that the Heaven-Devouring Titan Python and Space-Evading Mantis had grown stronger after absorbing the Clear Sky Hammer's energy.
• The Asura Demon Sword warned Mo Lin that the two soul beasts would have to undergo heavenly tribulations to advance further.
• Mo Lin realized he might have to endure both tribulations and additional punishment, then said he knew people who might have experience with them.

Mo Lin inspected the changes to his martial souls and focused on preparing for the heavenly tribulation, then returned to Vast Sea City after failing to draw out Yazi. In Spirit City, Bibi Dong and Spirit Hall’s leaders heard that five mysterious Titled Douluo were stronger than Yue Guan and Ghost.

• Mo Lin found that Primordial Qi’s soul rings had grown to five black and three red, while Non-Aggression’s single ring had become a hundred-thousand-year red ring.
• Mo Lin decided to postpone unlocking Non-Aggression’s remaining forms and prioritize the coming heavenly tribulation.
• Mo Lin asked Phoenix to watch over the exhausted Xue and Qi, then waited outside Vast Sea City for Yazi but returned to the hotel after the five men failed to arrive.
• Yue Guan reported the investigation’s findings to Bibi Dong and the gathered Spirit Hall leaders.
• Ghost told Bibi Dong that the five mysterious Titled Douluo were certainly stronger than him and Yue Guan, describing how one had overwhelmed them and Dugu Bo while another’s presence made them tremble.

Bibi Dong considered how to deal with five powerful Titled Douluo without weakening her control of Spirit Hall or disrupting Qian Renxue’s mission. After dismissing the elders, she welcomed Hu Liena and praised her rapid cultivation.

• An elder advised Bibi Dong to report the five Titled Douluo to Douluo Hall, and she weighed the risks of involving the priests or leaving Spirit City herself.
• Bibi Dong dismissed the elders to consider the matter privately.
• Hu Liena arrived and told Bibi Dong she had reached Rank 69, while Xie Yue and Yan had already gone to seek their seventh soul rings.
• Bibi Dong praised Hu Liena’s talent and said she could become Spirit Hall’s youngest Soul Sage.

Bibi Dong told Hu Liena she still had no news of Mo Lin, while Qian Daoliu learned that Qian Renxue had vanished from the Crown Prince's Palace. Golden Crocodile Douluo suggested Mo Lin might be involved, leaving Qian Daoliu to consider the possibility.

• Bibi Dong felt responsible for Hu Liena's distant demeanor because Mo Lin had left Spirit City without saying goodbye three years earlier.
• Hu Liena asked Bibi Dong whether she had heard from Mo Lin, and Bibi Dong said she had no news of him.
• Qian Daoliu learned that Snake Lance and Pufferfish Douluo could not find Qian Renxue in Heaven Dou City.
• Snake Lance reported that two Soul Sages in the Crown Prince's Palace seemed to know Qian Renxue was missing, while Pufferfish said they had sensed a hidden Titled Douluo and had not dared to seize them.
• Golden Crocodile Douluo calmed Qian Daoliu and suggested that Mo Lin might have something to do with Qian Renxue's disappearance.

Qian Daoliu learned that five powerful Title Douluos had appeared and decided Douluo Hall must investigate, despite his conflict with Bibi Dong. He sent Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo back to Heaven Dou City to investigate its hidden forces, then assigned three worships to handle the new threat.

• Golden Crocodile suggested Mo Lin might have influenced Qian Renxue to take a risky action, and Qian Daoliu agreed that Mo Lin was likely involved.
• Qian Daoliu ordered Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo to investigate Heaven Dou City's hidden Title Douluos while concealing Spirit Hall's involvement.
• A spy reported that Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had encountered five Title Douluos at Rank 96 or above after hearing a dragon's roar.
• Qian Jun Douluo reminded the worships that powerful soul masters could exist beyond those they knew, citing Mo Jia's past fight against him and Jiang Mo Douluo.
• Qian Daoliu decided Douluo Hall would intervene, ordered the spy to tell Bibi Dong not to interfere, and assigned Golden Crocodile, Moon Wolf, and Sky Halberd to the incident.

Bibi Dong suspected Douluo Hall had planted a spy in the Papal Palace after it took over a matter she had been handling, but she postponed confronting them. Meanwhile, Mo Lin left the sleeping Qian Renxue to consider their future plans and began looking for an uninhabited place where he could undergo his coming heavenly tribulation.

• Bibi Dong reasoned that a Douluo Hall spy in the Papal Palace had revealed her plans, then destroyed the message and decided to settle the score after Spirit Hall unified Douluo Continent.
• Mo Lin woke before Qian Renxue, who was still recovering from the strain of purifying the Evil Spirit Orca pod, and chose not to disturb her.
• Mo Lin shook Qilin awake and took him and Phoenix to the shore, where he considered a future assault on Sea God Island and the need for coordinated sea, land, and air forces.
• Qilin reminded Mo Lin that Qian Renxue was alone in the hotel, and Mo Lin said he could sense if anyone entered her room.
• Mo Lin decided to find a safe place for his heavenly tribulation, and Phoenix suggested the sea before Mo Lin pointed out that sea soul beasts lived there too.

After waking from a full day and night of sleep, Qian Renxue teased Mo Lin about making her do most of the work, then shared a tender moment with him. Mo Lin invited her out for a walk and left Qilin and Phoenix behind, with Phoenix telling him to return early.

• Qian Renxue woke after sleeping for twenty-four hours and complained that her body hurt and that she had done more work than Mo Lin.
• Mo Lin encouraged Qian Renxue not to hide her happiness and gently stroked her head.
• Qian Renxue let Mo Lin know he could touch her hair as long as he was gentler.
• Mo Lin invited Qian Renxue for a walk and told Qilin and Phoenix to stay behind.
• Qilin tried to follow Mo Lin, but Phoenix knocked him down and called after Mo Lin to return early.

Mo Lin and Qian Renxue strolled around Vast Sea City and decided to visit its auction house, where Mo Lin hoped to find a useful underwater Soul Tool. Realizing they lacked enough liquid funds, they debated how he could quickly earn more money.

• Mo Lin and Qian Renxue overheard hotel guests gossiping about them and left without confronting anyone.
• Mo Lin and Qian Renxue wandered through the rundown streets of Vast Sea City, where Qian Renxue soon grew bored.
• Qian Renxue suggested visiting the auction house, and Mo Lin remembered the Dragon Abyss Submarine and considered using one to modernize the navy.
• Mo Lin and Qian Renxue realized his ten thousand Gold Soul Coins might not buy much at auction, so Mo Lin proposed using special means to make money.
• Qian Renxue worried Mo Lin would gamble at the Great Soul Arena and suggested he return home for money, but Mo Lin hesitated to ask his family.

Mo Lin used Wind Queen's Arcane Gate to learn the outcomes of the day's soul fights and placed bets at the Great Soul Arena to raise money. After veteran gamblers mocked his picks, he dismissed them as fools who had fallen for an obvious trap.

• Mo Lin told Qian Renxue he would find a way to make money and took her to the Great Soul Arena.
• Mo Lin entered the Inner Landscape and learned the results of every soul fight scheduled at the arena that day.
• Mo Lin chose four matches and placed five thousand Gold Soul Coins on each of two morning fights.
• Several veteran gamblers mocked Mo Lin for betting on Lu Renjia and Shi Bingyi, but Mo Lin silently judged them for missing the trap.
• The gamblers grew angry at Mo Lin's contemptuous look but backed down when they noticed the patrolling guards.

Mo Lin won four rigged Soul Arena bets and amassed 720,000 Gold Soul Coins, then accepted a meeting with the arena’s person in charge after revealing he knew the arena had set a trap. Meanwhile, Ka Xu and Spirit Hall Platinum Bishop Tan Qian prepared to negotiate with Mo Lin or use force if talks failed.

• Mo Lin’s bets on Lu Renjia and Shi Bingyi paid off after both fighters turned their matches around, and he won two more afternoon bets using information from Wind Queen's Arcane Gate.
• Mo Lin turned 10,000 Gold Soul Coins into 720,000 in one day, and Qian Renxue questioned how he had predicted the four results.
• Qian Renxue spotted suspicious odds in the betting booklet, and Mo Lin told the arena manager he knew the bets had been a trap.
• Mo Lin agreed to meet the person in charge, warning the staff that the arena still owed him the full 720,000 Gold Soul Coins.
• Ka Xu told Tan Qian that Mo Lin had won all four arranged matches, and Tan Qian agreed to attack Mo Lin if Ka Xu signaled that negotiations had failed.

Mo Lin and Qian Renxue confronted Ka Xu, the Vast Sea City Great Soul Arena’s manager, over the 720,000 Gold Soul Coins Mo Lin had won. When Spirit Hall members arrived to threaten them, Qian Renxue revealed her Elder Token, leaving Tan Qian and Ka Xu kneeling as she walked out.

• Mo Lin and Qian Renxue entered Ka Xu’s office, where Mo Lin demanded the 720,000 Gold Soul Coins he had won.
• Mo Lin called the ambushers into the office, and Tan Qian led in Spirit Hall members who threatened him and Qian Renxue.
• Qian Renxue threw an object at Tan Qian, and a subordinate recognized it as Spirit Hall’s Elder Token.
• Tan Qian and Ka Xu dropped to their knees, and Tan Qian addressed Qian Renxue as an Elder.
• Qian Renxue took back the token and left without looking at the Spirit Hall members.

Mo Lin and Qian Renxue discussed corruption in Spirit Hall before going to an auction, where Mo Lin bought Sea Mysterious Ore. The auction then presented a rare Soul Tool, the Water Dragon Boat, and the bidding was about to begin.

• Mo Lin told Tan Qian to stay behind while Ka Xu left, then questioned Tan Qian about the 720,000 Gold Soul Coins he had won.
• Mo Lin met Qian Renxue outside the Great Soul Arena, and they discussed the corruption she had witnessed in Spirit Hall.
• Mo Lin and Qian Renxue entered the auction house and began bidding on items.
• Mo Lin bid on and won 377 jin of Sea Mysterious Ore, surprising the auction hall with his opening offer.
• The auctioneer introduced the Water Dragon Boat, a rare Soul Tool that could travel across Douluo Continent in ten days.

Mo Lin bought the Water Dragon Boat at the auction and revealed to Qian Renxue that he could make Soul Tools, prompting her to ask for a demonstration. Outside Vast Sea City, Suanni reprimanded Yazi for killing Spirit Hall soul masters, risking discovery.

• Mo Lin bid sixty thousand Gold Soul Coins and won the Water Dragon Boat.
• Mo Lin told Qian Renxue he could make Soul Tools and showed her his Scout Flying Bug.
• Qian Renxue abandoned the rest of the auction and asked Mo Lin to demonstrate his abilities after they returned.
• Suanni confronted Yazi outside Vast Sea City over killing a dozen Spirit Hall soul masters.
• Yazi defended himself, while the brothers' leader, Qiuniu, had intended only to knock the Spirit Hall men unconscious.

Mo Lin learned that the five Dragon Sons had killed Spirit Hall patrols outside Vast Sea City and prepared to meet them in the forest. He showed Qian Renxue his Soul Tools, kept the puppet project’s leader secret, and told her he would go to the forest alone the next day.

• Tan Qian told Mo Lin that Spirit Hall had been patrolling outside Vast Sea City in exchange for resources, and that more than a dozen soul masters had disappeared.
• Qiuniu decided the person the Dragon Sons sought would come find them, while Yazi and Mock Wind agreed Mo Lin’s fresh scent suggested he was waiting in the forest.
• Qian Renxue examined Mo Lin’s Soul Tools and learned that weaker puppets were already being mass-produced, though Mo Lin refused to reveal who was in charge.
• Mo Lin told Qian Renxue he would handle something in the nearby forest the next day and insisted she stay behind because she would be in danger.
• Qian Renxue accepted his decision and told him to leave early and return early.

Mo Lin arranged a lockdown of Vast Sea City to conceal his meeting with the dragon sons, then went into the forest to face Yazi. He prepared Qilin and Phoenix to intervene if the test turned dangerous.

• Mo Lin told Tan Qian to arrange a one-day lockdown of Vast Sea City, and Tan Qian asked for a reason before agreeing.
• Mo Lin told Tan Qian that evil soul masters had resurfaced, and Tan Qian hurried off to handle the lockdown.
• Mo Lin teleported outside the city, where Qiuniu sensed his arrival and Yazi went to test him.
• Qiuniu sent Suanni with Yazi to keep the test from becoming deadly.
• Mo Lin brought Qilin and Phoenix into the forest and warned them to intervene if Yazi's strength overwhelmed him.

Mo Lin faced Yazi and discovered that Yazi’s speed and physical strength far exceeded his own. He used Wind Queen's Arcane Gate to predict and evade Yazi’s attacks, then set up a wind net as Yazi charged toward him.

• Yazi attacked Mo Lin head-on and broke his right forearm with a punch before Mo Lin could finish dragonifying.
• Mo Lin teleported away with Wind Queen's Arcane Gate and recognized that he could not match Yazi in speed or physical attributes.
• Mo Lin used Grand Luo Insight to anticipate Yazi’s charge and shaped the ground with Kun Character—Earth River Chariot.
• Yazi circled around the altered ground, and Mo Lin formed a wind net with Xun Character—Wind Rope.
• Yazi burst through the wind net and kept charging as Mo Lin stood ready with an unusual aura.

Mo Lin used Grand Luo Insight to accelerate time and land a powerful punch on Yazi, but the attack broke his arm and did not visibly harm Yazi. After recovering, Mo Lin chose to stop dodging and prepare for a direct clash, hoping to earn Yazi’s recognition through his strength.

• Mo Lin accelerated time with Grand Luo Insight and struck Yazi in the abdomen, sending him flying while breaking his left arm and straining his body.
• Yazi praised Mo Lin’s surprise attack but showed no lasting injury and resumed his assault.
• Mo Lin reasoned that Yazi valued direct strength over tactical tricks and decided he had to fight head-on to prove himself worthy of being Winged Dragon’s successor.
• Mo Lin used Eight Gates Transport to escape and recover until his left arm healed, then waited without taking a fighting stance.
• Yazi questioned Mo Lin’s apparent scheme, and Mo Lin said he trusted Yazi not to attack him during a brief recovery break.
