Chapter Summaries

After absorbing the Gale Demon Wolf’s soul bone, Tianlin gained Teleportation and asked Chen Xin to teach him Heart Separation Control, which he began practicing with Ning Rongrong. Meanwhile, in Spirit City, Bibi Dong demanded an explanation from the badly injured Yue Guan and Gui Mei after their failed attempt to defeat Dugu Bo.

• Tianlin completed his soul bone absorption and gained a Teleportation skill with a range of about fifty meters.
• Tianlin found Ning Rongrong asleep after she had watched over him, then asked Chen Xin to teach him Heart Separation Control.
• Chen Xin praised Tianlin’s Feng Shui Circulation soul skill and gave him the sect’s training method.
• Ning Rongrong woke and agreed to practice Heart Separation Control with Tianlin.
• Bibi Dong questioned the injured Yue Guan and Gui Mei about their defeat by Dugu Bo.

Bibi Dong learned that Dugu Bo’s Snow-Colored Swan Kiss had made his poison a grave threat to Spirit Hall and ordered a search for the herb that could counter it. After granting Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo two Soul Bones to honor their Spirit Oath, she received Lor Diarra, who arrived with important intelligence.

• Yue Guan explained that Dugu Bo had used the Snow-Colored Swan Kiss to amplify his poison, making him dangerous even to multiple Titled Douluo.
• Yue Guan described two ways to defeat Dugu Bo: overwhelming him with a Titled Douluo above rank ninety-seven or finding the poison-countering Aromatic Silk Beauty.

• Bibi Dong excused Yue Guan from missions while he recovered, then gave Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo two lower-quality thousand-year Soul Bones to fulfill their Spirit Oath.
• Lor Diarra arrived at the Main Hall and greeted Bibi Dong, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo.

Spirit Hall learned that Yin Yang had become a Titled Douluo and decided to attend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's ceremony with Gui Mei and the Golden Generation. Tianlin returned to Heaven Dou Royal Academy to meet his companions and distribute immortal herbs and invitations.

• Lor Diarra reported that Yin Yang had broken through to Titled Douluo and that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect planned to hold a Titled Ceremony in one month.
• Bibi Dong chose Gui Mei to attend the ceremony with Lor Diarra and the Golden Generation, while Yue Guan stayed behind to recover.
• Tianlin returned to Heaven Dou Royal Academy after half a year away, intending to give his companions immortal herbs and invitations.
• The academy's students recognized Tianlin and whispered that he had trained with Poison Douluo; Tianlin dismissed their claims that anyone could grow strong under Titled Douluo.

Tianlin returned to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy training ground and told the Royal Fight Team that Dugu Bo had joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Elder Yin Yang had become a Titled Douluo. He invited the team and Qin Ming to Yin Yang’s Title Ceremony and revealed that medicinal pills made from herbs in Dugu Bo’s cultivation grounds had enabled the breakthrough.

• Qin Ming criticized Gu Ran and Dugu Yan for their tactical mistakes in the team’s practice battle, which Yu Tianheng’s Dragon Transformation had helped his side win.
• Tianlin arrived, and Gu Ran and the other team members welcomed him back after his half-year absence.

• Tianlin said pills he refined from herbs in Dugu Bo’s cultivation grounds had helped Elder Yin Yang break through, and he said he had returned with invitations.

Tianlin gave Qin Ming a Purple Golden Pill and gifts for the Royal Fight Team, including Immortal Herbs for several members and pills for the Shi Brothers. The recipients began absorbing or consuming their gifts, while Tianlin’s remaining teammates waited to receive theirs.

• Tianlin gave Qin Ming a Nine Rank Purple Golden Pill and asked him to pass Zhou Yan a Pink Fragrance flower.
• Osler asked Tianlin for a gift, but Tianlin refused to let him offset the gift against his Gold Soul Coin debt.
• Tianlin gave Ye Lingling an Eight Petal Immortal Orchid, and she went aside to absorb its medicinal power.
• Tianlin gave Osler a Narcissus Jade Bone and Yu Feng a Wind Fire Seven Leaf Flower, and both went off to cultivate.
• Tianlin gave the Shi Brothers Black Tortoise Golden Pills, which they swallowed at once.

Tianlin gave Dugu Yan, Yu Tianheng, and Gu Ran immortal herbs suited to them, and they cultivated with Qin Ming and the Imperial Fighters Eight. While guarding them, Tianlin examined the evolved powers of his Flame Golden Eyes External Soul Bone, and the group began to stir as the herbs took effect.

• Tianlin gave Dugu Yan an Ice Fire Snake Scale Fruit, and she named him her little brother and defended him from Yu Tianheng.
• Tianlin gave Yu Tianheng a Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and Yu Tianheng accepted him as a little brother in return.
• Tianlin gave Gu Ran an Ironclad Peony and explained how to consume it.
• The Imperial Fighters Eight and Qin Ming consumed their gifts and cultivated while Tianlin stood guard.
• Tianlin sensed that his Flame Golden Eyes had gained stronger detection and defense, and that its Golden Flame Soul Burn could now destroy an opponent's soul.
• After more than six hours, the medicinal effects strengthened the group's Soul Power and their bodies began to change.

Tianlin’s companions absorbed the Immortal Herbs and gained stronger Soul Power and Martial Souls, while Dugu Yan’s Jade Scale Serpent Emperor evolved into an Ice Fire Jade Scale Flood Dragon. Yu Tianheng sensed a connection between their Martial Souls and realized they might be able to use Martial Soul Fusion.

• Qin Ming absorbed the Purple Gold Pill, reached level fifty-five, and thanked Tianlin for helping him advance.
• The Shi Brothers awakened with stronger Black Tortoise Turtles and each rose six levels to level thirty-seven.
• Osler, Yu Feng, and Ye Lingling awakened with improved abilities; Ye Lingling’s Nine Heart Begonia gained the power to restore Soul Power.
• Yu Tianheng reached level thirty-eight, while Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul evolved into an Ice Fire Jade Scale Flood Dragon with ice, fire, and poison attributes.
• Yu Tianheng sensed a connection between his Martial Soul and Dugu Yan’s and realized they might achieve Martial Soul Fusion.

Dugu Yan and the Royal Fight Team members awakened with major Soul Power gains, and Tianlin joined the team and Qin Ming on a trip to Soul Hunting Forest to find spirit rings for four newly advanced Soul Elders. After Ye Lingling absorbed a suitable ring, the group camped for the night, where she and Gu Ran approached Tianlin.

• Dugu Yan awakened with her Soul Power increased to level thirty-nine, and Yu Tianheng promised to protect her as their martial souls resonated.
• Gu Ran awakened after absorbing the Ironclad Peony, and Tianlin later cultivated Heaven Snow Power with Xue Qinghe through the night.
• Tianlin met the Royal Fight Team and Qin Ming at the academy gates, and they entered Soul Hunting Forest with Zhou Yan to hunt spirit rings.
• The group found a thirteen-hundred-year Electric Spider, and Zhou Yan used Sleep Powder so Ye Lingling could kill it and absorb its ring.
• Ye Lingling advanced to Soul Elder at level thirty-five, while the group camped for the night and she and Gu Ran sat beside Tianlin.

Tianlin discussed Ye Lingling's future and suggested she and Gu Ran might become a couple, bringing new awkward feelings between them. When two Dark Night Demon Spirits approached their camp, Ye Lingling identified them as suitable thousand-year Soul Beasts.

• Ye Lingling told Tianlin she wanted to find someone she could truly rely on rather than join a sect, and Tianlin argued the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could value her healing abilities.
• Tianlin suggested Ye Lingling date Gu Ran, prompting both of them to blush and reconsider their feelings for each other.
• When Tianlin sensed killing intent in the woods, he shielded Ye Lingling and Gu Ran, while Gu Ran pulled Ye Lingling behind him and prepared to fight.
• Tianlin used his External Soul Bone to spot two fast, winged Soul Beasts approaching through the dark forest.
• Ye Lingling identified the creatures as Dark Night Demon Spirits and estimated they were fifteen hundred to sixteen hundred years old, making them suitable Soul Rings.

Tianlin fought two Dark Night Demon Spirits so Osler and Yu Feng could absorb their Soul Rings. By dawn, Yu Feng had gained a mental attack Soul Skill and Osler had gained a cloning skill, giving the Royal Fight Team new tactical options.

• Tianlin used Golden Flame Soul Burn to suppress one Dark Night Demon Spirit and defeated the other with his movement techniques, leaving both creatures for Osler and Yu Feng.
• Osler killed the first Dark Night Demon Spirit and began absorbing its Soul Ring while Tianlin pursued the second through the forest.
• Tianlin wounded the fleeing Dark Night Demon Spirit and sent it to Yu Feng, who killed it and began absorbing its Soul Ring.
• At dawn, Yu Feng awakened with Dark Wind, a single-target mental attack Soul Skill.
• Osler awakened with Leopard Shadow Clone, which created two clones with half his attack power, each able to attack once.

With Gu Ran still needing a suitable Soul Beast, the group roasted Dark Night Demon Spirit corpses to lure predators and attracted a powerful Death Tyrant Dragon. Gu Ran asked to absorb its ring despite the danger, and Tianlin and Qin Ming agreed to fight it for him.

• Ye Lingling suggested roasting the Dark Night Demon Spirit corpses to attract carnivorous Soul Beasts, and Qin Ming cooked them while Yu Feng spread the scent.
• A Death Tyrant Dragon emerged from the mist, and Ye Lingling judged it too old and dangerous for the group to fight.
• Gu Ran asked Qin Ming and Tianlin to help him defeat the dragon so he could absorb its spirit ring, citing its compatibility with his Skeleton Warhorse.
• Qin Ming refused at first, but Tianlin agreed to fight while telling Gu Ran to conserve his strength for absorbing the ring.
• Qin Ming accepted Tianlin's decision, summoned his Blazing Fire Wolf, and prepared to battle the Death Tyrant Dragon.

Tianlin led Imperial Fight in a coordinated battle against the Death Tyrant Dragon, whose physical strength and soul attacks overwhelmed their first assault. Qin Ming crippled the beast with a powerful fire attack, and Gu Ran destroyed its remaining soul and began absorbing its Soul Ring.

• Tianlin directed Osler and Yu Feng to attack the Death Tyrant Dragon while he drew its attention with Frezing Snow and dodged its Death Aura.
• Osler and Yu Feng struck from both sides, but the dragon withstood their attacks, injured Osler, and nearly caused Yu Feng a soul backlash.
• Dugu Yan strengthened the group with her poisons, then joined Tianlin in freezing and burning the dragon with their coordinated ice-and-fire attack.
• Ye Lingling used Nine Heart Begonia to restore Tianlin and Dugu Yan’s Soul Power as Qin Ming prepared his attack.
• Qin Ming blasted apart the Death Tyrant Dragon’s head with Bursting Fire, leaving its soul alive but weakened.
• Gu Ran pierced the dragon’s remaining soul with Bone Spurs, drew out its purple Soul Ring, and began absorbing it.

Gu Ran absorbed the Death Tyrant Dragon’s Soul Ring, gaining its powerful Death Aura, and fused with the dragon’s rare Torso Bone. With his strength greatly increased, the group left the Soul Hunting Forest and hurried to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for the imminent Titled Ceremony.

• Tianlin and the others discovered a Torso Bone inside the Death Tyrant Dragon’s corpse, and Qin Ming removed it for Gu Ran.
• After absorbing the Soul Ring for a day, Gu Ran gained Death Aura, which could separate a soul from its body.
• Gu Ran initially refused the Torso Bone, but Tianlin insisted that he absorb it.
• Gu Ran fused with the Torso Bone, gaining Tyrant Dragon Body and reaching the peak of rank thirty-seven.
• The group left the Soul Hunting Forest and hurried toward the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for the Titled Ceremony.

Tianlin brought Qin Ming, Zhou Yan, and the Royal Fight Team to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ahead of the Titled Ceremony, where Ning Fengzhi welcomed them and recognized their potential. Gu Ran earned Gu Rong’s approval as a personal disciple, and Ye Lingling chose a room beside Gu Ran’s in Tianlin’s courtyard.

• Tianlin invited Qin Ming to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but Qin Ming said he had no current plans to join a faction.
• Tianlin and Gu Ran introduced the visiting teachers and students to Ning Fengzhi and the sect’s elders, who were impressed by their strength and potential.
• Gu Ran told Gu Rong that he had reached level thirty-seven and gained a Death Tyrant Dragon torso bone, so Gu Rong made him his personal disciple.
• Ning Fengzhi asked Tianlin and Gu Ran to host the visitors while he received other guests.
• Ning Rongrong showed Ye Lingling which room was next to Gu Ran’s, and Ye Lingling chose it.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s Titled Ceremony began welcoming powerful guests, including Yu Yuanzhen, who hinted that he had an important matter to discuss with Ning Fengzhi. With the ceremony about to start, an uninvited group reached the city gates.

• Gu Ran decided to pursue Ye Lingling, and Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi supported him.
• Huyan Zhen arrived for the ceremony, and Tianlin recognized him as a secret Spirit Hall ally and a future enemy of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
• Shi Lei thanked Tianlin for helping his grandsons with Immortal Grade divine pills and promised to repay him.
• Yu Yuanzhen arrived with Yu Tianheng and told Ning Fengzhi he would discuss an important matter after the ceremony.
• As the ceremony was about to begin, an uninvited group reached the city gates.

Yin Yang held his Titled Ceremony at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, where Spirit Hall challenged his choice of title and claimed authority over the proceedings. Tianlin and Dugu Bo thwarted Ghost Douluo’s provocation, and Dugu Bo collected the two Soul Bones owed to him.

• Yin Yang revealed his nine Soul Rings and chose Thunder Eagle as his title at the ceremony.
• Ghost Douluo arrived with Lor Diarra and three young people, proposed Thunder God Douluo, and claimed Spirit Hall had authority over Yin Yang’s title.
• Tianlin and Yu Yuanzhen compared Spirit Hall’s recordkeeping role to the Heaven Dou Empire’s Historical Archives, and Ning Fengzhi played along.
• Ghost Douluo attacked Tianlin with a mental strike, but Tianlin used a grayish-white beam and Ultimate Fire to drive him back.
• Dugu Bo revealed himself and taunted Ghost Douluo about his defeat, then accepted the two Soul Bones Ghost Douluo had promised.

At the gathering, Dugu Bo accepted Spirit Hall’s spirit bones while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect rejected Spirit Hall’s attempt to impose the title Thunder God on Yin Yang. As tensions rose, Gui Mei proposed a wager against the sect’s younger generation, and Tianlin countered with stricter terms.

• Dugu Bo took the poison-attributed skull bone and Left Arm Bone, then refused to let Gui Mei’s attack on Tianlin go unanswered.
• Tianlin and Dugu Bo turned Spirit Hall’s bestowed title into a joke by publicly calling Yin Yang Thunder Eagle Douluo instead of Thunder God.
• Yan, Xie Yue, and Hu Liena challenged Tianlin and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s younger generation to Soul Fights, prompting Gui Mei to propose a wager over Yin Yang’s title.
• Tianlin demanded a spirit bone worth more than ten thousand years as the stake and proposed that he alone fight a Deathmatch while the other bouts remained contests.

Tianlin accepted Spirit Hall’s wager and entered the Deathmatch with Ning Rongrong and Gu Ran against Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan. He resisted Hu Liena’s Charm and struck her mind with Golden Flame Soul Burn, leaving her screaming on her knees.

• Hu Liena accepted Tianlin’s wager for a Ten Thousand Year Gemstone Spirit Bone, and Gui Mei restricted the contestants to those sixteen or younger.
• Tianlin turned down Yu Tianheng’s help and chose Ning Rongrong and Gu Ran as his teammates.
• Tianlin instructed Ning Rongrong to hold back her Soul Skills and Gu Ran to protect her before the teams summoned their Martial Souls.
• The Golden Generation was shocked by Tianlin’s Thousand-Year Second Ring, while Yan threatened to cripple the young opponents.
• Hu Liena used Charm on Tianlin, but he resisted it and attacked her mind with Golden Flame Soul Burn, causing her to collapse in pain.

Tianlin and his allies gained control of the match against Spirit Hall’s Golden Generation, injuring Yan and leaving Hu Liena barely able to fight. Gui Mei refused to concede, believing Xie Yue and Hu Liena still had a trump card.

• Hu Liena suffered from Tianlin’s mental attack, and Xie Yue and Yan attacked him while he evaded their blows.
• Xie Yue sent Yan after Ning Rongrong as Gu Ran defended her, revealing his Torso Bone and throwing Yan aside.
• Tianlin teleported behind Yan, overcame his Hell Flames, and struck him with Icefire God Sealing, reducing his power and sealing his fourth Soul Ring.
• Ning Rongrong amplified Gu Ran, who used Death Aura to blast Yan’s soul from his body and knock him out of the match.
• Hu Liena used Mental Amplification to endure Tianlin’s soul fire but could no longer fight effectively.
• Gu Rong urged Gui Mei to concede, but Gui Mei refused, saying Xie Yue and Hu Liena still had a trump card.

Tianlin entered Hu Liena and Xie Yue’s Demon Charm Martial Soul Fusion Skill and defeated them by breaking the fusion before Xie Yue’s Full Moon could finish him. Hu Liena conceded, leaving Tianlin victorious over Spirit Hall’s Golden Generation.

• Hu Liena told Xie Yue that their only chance was their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and Xie Yue vowed to kill Tianlin.
• Xie Yue and Hu Liena fused into Demon Charm, and Tianlin entered the red mist, using his Flame Golden Eyes to see through it.
• Tianlin fought Xie Yue with the Seven Kill Swordplay, forcing Xie Yue to unleash his Self-Created Soul Skill, Full Moon.
• Tianlin used his third Soul Skill, Feng Shui Circulation, to break Demon Charm and send Hu Liena flying out of the mist.
• Tianlin disarmed and captured Xie Yue, then threw him to Gui Mei and threatened Hu Liena until she conceded.
