Su Ge defeated the Wolf Bandits’ corrupted Soul Beast ally, discovered that the survivors’ gratitude produced the power of faith, and returned toward Cold Gate Pass. Meanwhile, Emperor Xue Ye’s health continued to deteriorate as Xue Qinghe visited him, concealing that she was responsible.
Emperor Xue Ye suspected Xue Qinghe of poisoning him but secretly ordered Xue Yi to invite Begonia Douluo, while Xue Qinghe revealed that the Shadow Guards already served her. On his return journey, Su Ge learned that Xue Qinghe had taken over governing and considered how to prepare for the coming war and pursue godhood.
Su Ge and Deng Jilin returned to Heaven Dou City and went to the Ye Clan, where Ye Tianxin welcomed them after becoming a healing-type Titled Douluo. Su Ge asked Ye Tianxin to invite Yang Wudi from the Breaking Clan and tell him where Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had gone.
Su Ge returned with six Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and a seventh ring from a million-year soul beast, astonishing Dugu Bo, Yang Wudi, and Ye Tianxin. He agreed to help treat Emperor Xue Ye’s poison in exchange for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, sending Ye Tianxin and Dugu Bo to negotiate.
Su Ge returned from the Far North, learned about the shifting alliances among the continent’s major powers, and visited the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. He revealed that he had reached rank-eighty Soul Saint and asked Ning Fengzhi where Yu Xiaogang was being held, preparing to settle old accounts.
Su Ge visited Ning Fengzhi to learn that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had offered riches to ransom Yu Xiaogang and seek peace. Ning Fengzhi brought Su Ge to the dungeon, where Yu Xiaogang emerged in a wretched state, and Yu Xiaogang realized he had finally been released.
Su Ge found Yu Xiaogang traumatized in the dungeon, then prepared to take him to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan as part of his plans against them. Dugu Yan asked Su Ge to spare Yu Tianheng, and Su Ge clarified that he intended to bring the clan under his control before arriving at their hall with Yu Xiaogang and the others.
Su Ge confronted Yu Yuanzhen at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s ancestral grounds over the clan’s role in the Soul Master Tournament incident. He rejected Yu Yuanzhen’s attempt to deny responsibility and left the confrontation poised to escalate.
Su Ge confronted Yu Yuanzhen over the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s past inaction and its members’ plots against him, then demanded that the clan submit or die. After revealing six red Soul Rings and a white Seventh Soul Ring, Su Ge attacked Yu Yuanzhen, who was left regretting his position as he struggled to withstand Su Ge’s punches.
Su Ge overwhelmed Yu Yuanzhen in their aerial battle and defeated him after destroying all nine thunder dragons of his Ninth Soul Skill. Yu Yuanzhen fell to the ground, leaving the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s future under Su Ge’s influence unresolved.
Su Ge forced the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to submit after defeating Yu Yuanzhen, then considered how to build power and pursue godhood through faith. As they returned to Heaven Dou City, Yu Xiaogang silently resented Su Ge and took hope from the white Seventh Soul Ring he had seen.
After returning to Heaven Dou City, Su Ge reunited with Xiao Wu and the others at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Xiao Wu decided to absorb the Lovesick Heartbreak Red so she could keep pace with him, and a few days later Su Ge wondered if she had begun.
Su Ge developed the Blood Essence Armor, a self-created soul skill that expanded his right-foot soul bone skill into full-body armor and greatly increased his strength and defense. After testing it in the sky, he explained the technique to Chen Xin, who marveled at how monstrous Su Ge had become.
Su Ge continued helping Zhu Zhuqing cultivate as her Hell Spirit Cat evolved, while Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong also grew stronger at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. After reaching rank eighty and preparing for Slaughter City, Su Ge left the three women behind and set out alone to investigate Tang San and the Asura God's intentions.
Su Ge traveled to the town outside Slaughter City, confident that his abilities would let him withstand its restrictions and challenge the King of Slaughter. Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang was returned to the dungeon and faced Scarface and the other prisoners before Su Ge arrived at the town tavern.
