After escaping the Silver Moon Skywolf King, Yue Ling and Zhang Lexuan hid in a cave to recover while the wolf pack searched for them. Yue Ling concealed their trail and prepared defenses, but they remained in danger and had little time to rest.

• After Zhang Lexuan began meditating, Yue Ling heard the wolf pack approaching and scattered beast-repelling powder around the entrance.
• Yue Ling left a false trace of Soul Power leading away from the cave to mislead the Silver Moon wolf pack.

• Zhang Lexuan agreed, inspected the opening with Soul Power, and jumped in before Yue Ling followed.

Yue Ling and Zhang Lexuan discovered a vast underground plant kingdom and identified the Moon Parasol Tree and Silvermoon Roland as a symbiotic pair. Yue Ling decided the Silvermoon Roland would be the target for his fifth Spirit Ring, while the Hundred Flowers Record secretly reached into the pair’s consciousness.

• Yue Ling decided the Silvermoon Roland would provide his fifth Spirit Ring.
• The Hundred Flowers Record released a faint pink light that secretly entered the consciousness of the Moon Parasol Tree and Silvermoon Roland.

Yue Ling and Zhang Lexuan crossed the poisonous flower fields toward the Moon Parasol Tree so Yue Ling could claim the Silvermoon Roland as his fifth Spirit Ring. They reached the tree’s vicinity under the Lovesick Heartbreak Red’s barrier, with the poison growing stronger and Zhang Lexuan relying on a Poison-Cleansing Pill.

• Yue Ling chose the Silvermoon Roland for his fifth Spirit Ring because its condensation trait suited his need for a strength-enhancing soul skill.

• The Lovesick Heartbreak Red’s barrier kept the nearby plant spirit beasts from attacking as Yue Ling and Zhang Lexuan approached the Moon Parasol Tree.
• As the floral poison seeped through the barrier, Zhang Lexuan swallowed a Poison-Cleansing Pill to ease its effects.

Yue Ling followed a mysterious voice to the Silvermoon Roland, which enveloped him in energy and triggered a strange transformation. Zhang Lexuan watched as the Hundred Flowers Record changed and the Moon Parasol Tree uprooted itself, leaving the outcome for Yue Ling uncertain.

• Yue Ling heard a voice calling him and realized it came from the Moon Parasol Tree, so he led Zhang Lexuan beneath it toward the Silvermoon Roland.
• Yue Ling touched the Silvermoon Roland after sensing no hostility, and it enveloped him in a surge of gentle blue energy.
• The Hundred Flowers Record flew from Yue Ling's Soul Tool ring and split into two spheres, one forming a crown that entered his brow and the other leaving the book on the ground.
• The Moon Parasol Tree shook, tore its roots from the ground, and shrank until it matched the Silvermoon Roland's size.
• The Moon Parasol Tree and Silvermoon Roland joined roots, circled Yue Ling in blue energy, and flew into the energy surrounding him.

Zhang Lexuan faced the Silver Moon Wolf pack while Yue Ling absorbed a ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring underground. Gong Changlong arrived with three others to help as the Hundred-Thousand-Year Silver Moon Skywolf King charged toward them, while Yue Ling’s absorption continued peacefully.

• Zhang Lexuan killed three Silver Moon Wolves after one howled to summon its pack, then prepared to hold off the approaching wolves and their king.

• Gong Changlong turned toward the approaching Hundred-Thousand-Year Silver Moon Skywolf King and prepared to deal with the threat.
• Underground, Yue Ling absorbed the Silvermoon Roland’s power and formed a ten-thousand-year fifth Spirit Ring for his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum martial soul.

Yue Ling underwent a fusion as the Silvermoon Roland offered itself to become his fifth Spirit Ring and the Moon Parasol Tree transformed into a Spirit Bone. The process left him asleep with both plants’ soul origins and seeds preserved, while Zhang Lexuan and Gong Changlong’s group continued defending the cave from the Silver Moon Wolf pack.

• The Silvermoon Roland sacrificed its cultivation to form Yue Ling’s fifth Spirit Ring, then its remaining soul origin entered the golden crown in his Spirit Sea.
• As Zhang Lexuan guarded the cave, Gong Changlong and three Shrek Academy experts fought off waves of Silver Moon Wolves while their wolf king waited in the shadows.
• The golden crown calmed the restless Moon Parasol Tree, which approached Yue Ling and transformed into a Spirit Immunity Guardian Skull that fused with him.
• The Moon Parasol Tree’s remaining soul origin entered the golden crown, and seeds of both the Silvermoon Roland and Moon Parasol Tree appeared beside Yue Ling.
• Yue Ling remained asleep as blue energy continued tempering his body.

Gong Changlong and the Shrek experts drove off the injured Silver Moon Skywolf King, then waited by the cave while Yue Ling recovered inside the blue energy. Yue Ling awakened with a new Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring and Rank 53 Soul Power, but the golden crown abruptly shattered the energy surrounding him.

• Gong Changlong taunted the Silver Moon Skywolf King, but the wounded beast chose to retreat into the Star Dou Great Forest rather than fight to the death.
• Zhang Lexuan recovered her Soul Power, and Gong Changlong decided the group would search the wolf corpses for Spirit Bones while waiting for Yue Ling.
• Yue Ling awoke inside the blue energy and discovered that he had reached Rank 53 and absorbed a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.
• A plant resembling Silvermoon Roland thanked Yue Ling, while the Moon Parasol Tree and two small seeds appeared beside it.
• Yue Ling doubted that he was awake, and the golden crown on his forehead flashed and shattered the blue energy around him.

After absorbing the Silvermoon Roland and Moon Parasol Tree to form his fifth Spirit Ring, Yue Ling discovered that the plant soul beasts underground reacted to his presence. He left with Gong Changlong and the other Shrek powerhouses, but the plant soul beasts rioted again once Yue Ling moved away.

• Yue Ling woke naked in the cave, found two seeds left by the Silvermoon Roland and Moon Parasol Tree, and realized their power had formed his fifth Spirit Ring.
• Zhang Lexuan saw Yue Ling naked before leaving toward Shrek, and Yue Ling met Gong Changlong, who had collected two Spirit Bones after a battle with Silver Moon Wolves.
• Gong Changlong introduced himself as Shrek's Beast King and led Yue Ling and three other Shrek powerhouses away to settle the captured wolf pups.
• When plant soul beasts underground began attacking through the rock, Yue Ling returned to the cave entrance and found they quieted as soon as he approached.
• Yue Ling covered the cave opening, but the plant soul beasts rioted again after he moved away, leading him to suspect they had mistaken him for the Moon Parasol Tree.

• Gong Changlong teased Yue Ling about staying with the Soul Beasts, and Yue Ling took the remark as inspiration before leaping into the cavern.
• Yue Ling heard the Plant Soul Beasts' voices and watched the giant blue flower spray pollen over him, then fall asleep.

• Silvermoon Roland's voice prompted Yue Ling to feed the seeds his blood, and they quickly sprouted as the Plant Soul Beasts grew peaceful.
• Yue Ling looked up and saw that the cave entrance was packed with people.

Yue Ling calmed the Plant Soul Beasts with the seeds of Silvermoon Roland and the Moon Parasol Tree, then returned to Shrek with Zhang Lexuan. After an awkward parting, he headed to his dormitory to bathe and rest after obtaining his Fifth Spirit Ring.

• Yue Ling told the seniors that planting a seed had calmed the Plant Soul Beasts, and Gong Changlong urged everyone to return to Shrek.
• Yue Ling and the seniors reached Shrek City, where Gong Changlong hurried back to the academy and Yue Ling reunited with Zhang Lexuan.
• Yue Ling thanked Zhang Lexuan for helping him obtain his Fifth Spirit Ring, and she asked him to cook for her when he returned to Shrek Inner Court.

After reaching Soul King, Yue Ling discovered that he had gained a rare mental-defense Spirit Bone and found a mysterious Golden Crown in his Spirit Sea. Silvermoon Roland told him the crown had granted his ability to hear plants and that its secrets would become clear when he reached Soul Douluo, leaving Yue Ling to inspect the imprisoned remnant soul.

• Yue Ling examined his breakthrough and found that his Soul Power had reached level fifty-three and that he had acquired the Spirit Immunity Guardian Skull.
• Yue Ling entered his Spirit Sea and discovered a Golden Crown entwined with green vines, then tried unsuccessfully to touch it as it repeatedly knocked his consciousness out.
• Silvermoon Roland appeared from the crown and told Yue Ling that it had granted him the ability to hear plants and that he needed to reach Soul Douluo to understand more.
• Yue Ling stopped confronting the crown and went to the edge of his Spirit Sea, where he found the green humanoid remnant soul still imprisoned by a golden seal.

Yue Ling examined the sealed azure figure in his Spirit Sea, while the figure secretly planned to escape and called him the Holy Spirit Cult's born Saint Son. Yue Ling then used the Hundred Flowers Record to discover new herb locations, but found that its later pages required him to reach Soul Emperor.

• Yue Ling suspected the Evil Soul Masters had treated him as the final link in a hidden plan, then withdrew his consciousness after confirming the seal remained intact.
• The azure figure witnessed Yue Ling's visit, found a clue to escaping, and resolved to wait for Yue Ling to grow stronger so its plan could advance.
• Yue Ling opened the Hundred Flowers Record to search for immortal herbs, including the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower that Ma Xiaotao needed.
• After reaching the previously blocked pages, Yue Ling read locations for herbs including Ghost Vine, Ghost King Vine, and Nine-Leaf Mystic Ice Orchid.
• Yue Ling reached the book's limit and learned that the remaining contents required Soul Emperor, so he planned to cultivate further before scouting for immortal herbs with Xuan Zi and Dean Yan.

Yue Ling slept naked and woke to Gongyang Mo’s startled reaction, while Ye Xishui learned that a child carrying a Remnant Soul remained at Shrek Academy. After hearing that Shrek had selected its Seven Monsters and would hold a tournament reserve-team selection, Yue Ling decided to try out but avoid competing afterward.

• Ye Xishui learned from Wan Hun that his plan had failed except for one child at Shrek Academy, whose Remnant Soul Shrek had sealed.
• Wan Hun proposed reclaiming the Holy Spirit Cult’s Holy Son after Mu En died, and Ye Xishui ordered him to watch Shrek closely.
• Gongyang Mo returned to the Dormitory and found Yue Ling asleep naked, then reacted with shock to Yue Ling’s changed appearance.
• Gongyang Mo told Yue Ling that Shrek Academy had chosen its Seven Monsters and would hold a free-for-all to select seven reserve-team members.
• Yue Ling decided to try for the Reserve Team but avoid competing in the Soul Master Tournament afterward because of his unstable condition and cultivation priorities.
