Chapter Summaries

Huo Yuhao tracked the Mirror Shadow Beast into the Far North’s core region and killed it to obtain its soul ring. He gained the passive Mirror Neuron skill, reached soul power level forty-five, and turned his attention to refining the Life Gold to help restore Teacher Electrolux.

• Huo Yuhao followed his Spiritual Link into the Far North’s core region and found the Mirror Shadow Beast, whose cultivation had only reached just over fifty thousand years.
• The Mirror Shadow Beast attacked with refracted ice blades and illusions, but Huo Yuhao used simulated destructive power to kill it.
• Huo Yuhao absorbed the Mirror Shadow Beast’s soul ring, enduring its violent soul power while his Three-Colored Soul Core healed and strengthened his body.
• Huo Yuhao gained the passive Mirror Neuron skill, which could simulate opponents’ soul power, martial soul structures, and soul skills.
• The soul ring raised Huo Yuhao’s cultivation to level forty-five, and he decided to refine the Life Gold to nourish Teacher Electrolux’s damaged divine consciousness.

After Huo Yuhao left, Ma Xiaotao resolved to grow stronger and was chosen by the Fire God to undertake the Fire God's Nine Trials. In the Divine Realm, the other Elemental Gods warned the Fire God that his choice of inheritor violated the rules, but he accepted the risk.

• Ma Xiaotao returned to her quarters, mourned Huo Yuhao's departure briefly, and decided to cultivate until she could stand beside him.
• As Ma Xiaotao cultivated, she was transported to a sea of flames, where the Fire God invited her to undertake the Fire God's Nine Trials.
• Ma Xiaotao accepted the Fire God's offer, determined to surpass her ancestor Ma Hongjun and claim the godhood.
• In the Divine Realm, the Water God and Earth God warned the Fire God that choosing Ma Xiaotao, who carried Divine Phoenix bloodline, risked angering the God of Destruction.
• The Fire God said he was willing to gamble on Ma Xiaotao because of her connection to Huo Yuhao and urged the other Elemental Gods to choose inheritors too.
• The Wind God refused to join the Fire God's scheme and accused him of trying to drag the others into trouble.

Huo Yuhao entered Fallen Dragon Canyon after Electrolux proposed using the Heavenly Creation Cauldron and a powerful draconic origin to forge him a third Martial Soul. He dismissed the weak beasts he encountered, then spotted two Heavenly Dragon Sect disciples whose rare treasure-hunting Soul Beasts could lead him to valuable finds.

• Electrolux urged Huo Yuhao to seek treasures and strong bloodlines before refining his life gold, saying a draconic origin could help create a third Martial Soul.
• Huo Yuhao changed course and traveled to Fallen Dragon Canyon, believing a dragon king might have fallen there.
• He killed several low-level Dragon Beasts and found their bloodlines too weak to be useful.
• Huo Yuhao advanced deeper into the canyon and detected two young Heavenly Dragon Sect disciples with beasts that could locate mineral veins and spiritual herbs.

Huo Yuhao discovered two Heavenly Dragon Sect twin disciples with the useless Luo Sanpao martial soul facing death in Fallen Dragon Canyon. After their martial souls were destroyed and two Poison Swamp Horned Dragons cornered them, Huo Yuhao stepped in and stopped one beast with his bare hand.

• Huo Yuhao identified the twins’ Luo Sanpao martial souls and judged them to be rank ten disciples with little combat ability.
• Two hundred-year dragon beasts approached the brothers, and a Poison Swamp Horned Dragon attacked them.
• The twins’ knives failed to pierce the beast’s scales, and its tail injured the younger brother.
• The older brother sent both Luo Sanpao forward, but the dragon beast destroyed them and the backlash left both brothers gravely weakened.
• As the Poison Swamp Horned Dragon prepared to kill the twins, Huo Yuhao appeared and halted it by pressing his hand against its head.

Huo Yuhao saved Long Batian and Long Zhantian from Poison Swamp Horned Dragons, learned how the twins had shared Soul Power to reach level ten, and found them matching Holy Light Dragon Soul Beasts for their first Soul Rings. As the brothers began absorbing the rings, Huo Yuhao watched closely to gather experimental data.

• Huo Yuhao froze two Poison Swamp Horned Dragons and rescued Long Batian and Long Zhantian.
• He learned that the twins shared the same weak Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, and that Long Zhantian had transferred Soul Power to help his older brother reach level ten.
• Huo Yuhao found and restrained two Holy Light Dragons suitable for the brothers' first Soul Rings.
• Long Batian and Long Zhantian killed the beasts and began absorbing their Centennial Soul Rings while Huo Yuhao observed their Soul Power circulation.

Huo Yuhao studied how the brothers’ Luo Sanpao martial souls responded to absorbing Holy Light Dragon soul rings. Long Zhantian showed modest signs of evolution, while Long Batian gained no soul skill and his martial soul barely changed.

• Huo Yuhao used Spirit Detection to compare how Long Batian and Long Zhantian absorbed their soul rings, finding Long Zhantian’s stronger soul power helped his Luo Sanpao repair and change.
• Long Zhantian finished absorbing his ring after about an hour and gained the soul skill Holy Light Cannon.
• Long Batian took nearly two hours to absorb his ring, reached rank eleven, but gained no soul skill or meaningful martial soul change.
• Long Zhantian demonstrated Holy Light Cannon, whose weak, slow blast only cracked a small rock.
• Huo Yuhao noticed several thin, pale golden scales had appeared on Long Zhantian’s Luo Sanpao.

Huo Yuhao brought Long Batian and Long Zhantian deeper into the Fallen Dragon Canyon and tested whether feeding their Luo Sanpao Martial Souls dragon-beast flesh could promote their growth. His experiments showed that the results depended heavily on the brothers’ innate foundations, leaving Long Batian’s severely deficient Martial Soul barely improved.

• Huo Yuhao observed that Long Batian’s Soul Ring had barely strengthened his body, unlike Long Zhantian’s, and refused to let the brothers leave.
• Huo Yuhao escorted the brothers through the canyon’s poisonous mist and killed a two-thousand-year Ironclad Earth Dragon with a spatial blade.
• Huo Yuhao extracted the dragon’s blood essence, gave its flesh to both Luo Sanpao, and monitored their reactions.
• Huo Yuhao killed several more mutated Dragon Beasts and repeated the feeding tests over half a day.
• Huo Yuhao found that Long Zhantian’s Luo Sanpao showed modest growth, while Long Batian’s Martial Soul lost most of the nourishment because of its incomplete origin.

Xu Mingzi rejected Xu Jiawei’s attempt to win him over with imperial wealth and family ties, insisting that Minghuang Academy and its people had raised him. After hearing his account, Ju Zi reflected on the powerful future Xu Mingzi had forged alone in her previous life and recognized how different his path was now.

• Xu Mingzi refused Xu Jiawei’s offer, recalling his childhood poverty and declaring that he would not betray the family that had raised him for a blood tie that had never helped him.
• Xu Jiawei’s secret meeting with Xu Mingzi ended in failure, and he sat alone in the Star Emperor Hotel suite.
• Xu Mingzi told Ju Zi about the meeting in her study, and she was unsurprised that Xu Jiawei had tried to claim him.
• Ju Zi recalled how Xu Mingzi had later forced his way into the Duke of Tianxing’s Mansion, rejected the Star Crown Sect, and founded the Star Staff Xu Family after becoming a Titled Douluo.
• Ju Zi reflected that she had brought Xu Mingzi to Minghuang Academy early in this life, where he had become its sharpest hidden trump card.

Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao joined a secret gathering of powerful factions plotting against Minghuang Academy and its allies. After learning that Ju Zi secretly ruled the three organizations, the gathered leaders agreed to seize her technology and resources, then Xu Jiawei asked Gongsun Shu to divine the outcome of their attack.

• Xu Jiawei told Dai Hao that their attempt to recruit the boy had failed, and Dai Hao said they would follow the original plan.
• Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao arrived at the Heavenly Dragon Sect, where leaders of empires and sects gathered to discuss Minghuang Academy.
• Gongsun Shu revealed that Ju Zi secretly controlled Minghuang Academy, the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, and the Divine Machine Hall, and he presented records tracing their operations to her.
• The gathered leaders grew greedy after reading the records and agreed to join forces to capture Ju Zi and divide her resources.
• Xu Jiawei asked Gongsun Shu to use the Wordless Heavenly Book to divine whether their planned attack would bring fortune or disaster.

Gongsun Shu divined that the planned operation would bring great fortune, giving the assembled leaders confidence as they prepared to hunt Ju Zi and Dugu Ling. Five days later, Huo Yuhao had found that martial soul origin activity affected how well Long Batian and Long Zhantian absorbed dragon resources, and he began testing them with refined Dragon Blood Pills.

• Gongsun Shu used Heavenly Secrets Divination and saw the words “Great fortune,” convincing the leaders their operation would succeed.
• Chang Junming, Xu Quexin, and the others began planning an assault focused on capturing Ju Zi and Dugu Ling.
• Huo Yuhao compared the brothers’ responses to dragon meat and found that Long Zhantian’s Luo Sanpao evolved far more than Long Batian’s.
• Huo Yuhao used Spirit Detection to discover that the brothers’ martial soul origins had different activity levels, which affected how they absorbed and converted nourishment.
• Huo Yuhao refined dragon beast flesh and blood into Dragon Blood Pills and gave equal portions to both brothers for further experiments.

Huo Yuhao finished analyzing how Dragon Blood Pills affected martial souls with different foundations and ages while he cooked for Long Batian and Long Zhantian. The chapter ended with Long Zhantian innocently mistaking him for an older man with children, leaving Huo Yuhao stunned.

• Huo Yuhao compared the brothers’ transformations and concluded that Dragon Blood Pills affected martial souls according to their innate foundations and that age reduced the chance of evolution.
• Huo Yuhao finished roasting Ironclad Earth Dragon meat and gave a skewer to Long Batian.
• Long Zhantian rushed over, grabbed meat from his brother, and ate without showing any caution.
• Huo Yuhao wiped grease from Long Zhantian’s mouth, prompting Long Batian to worry that his brother had offended the senior.
• Long Zhantian praised Huo Yuhao’s kindness and cooking, then said his children must be happy, leaving Huo Yuhao speechless.

Huo Yuhao sent Long Batian and Long Zhantian away from Fallen Dragon Canyon’s outskirts after giving them a token to help him enter the guarded core and cultivation plans to guide their training. The brothers parted from him with renewed resolve to grow stronger.

• Long Batian warned Huo Yuhao that the Heavenly Dragon Sect guarded Fallen Dragon Canyon’s core and gave him a jade token that could help him pass.
• Huo Yuhao carried the brothers to the canyon’s safe fringe the next morning and gave each a cultivation plan tailored to his martial soul and body.
• Long Batian and Long Zhantian were moved by Huo Yuhao’s care, recalling how they had been neglected after awakening Luo Sanpao.
• Long Zhantian vowed to become strong and make the Heavenly Dragon Sect members who looked down on them see the brothers differently.

Huo Yuhao slipped past the Heavenly Dragon Sect checkpoint and explored Fallen Dragon Canyon’s core region, where a potent dragon-blood aura strengthened the local Soul Beasts. He discovered a dangerous Thunderwing Mad Dragon and overheard a Titled Douluo dismissing the disappearance of Long Batian and Zhantian as unimportant.

• Huo Yuhao used Spirit Detection and spatial power to bypass the checkpoint without using Long Batian’s token.
• Huo Yuhao observed three Groundwalking Wyverns and found that the core region’s blood aura was gradually purifying their bloodlines.
• Huo Yuhao detected a Thunderwing Mad Dragon estimated to be over fifty thousand years old and avoided provoking it.
• Huo Yuhao sensed a group of fifteen Soul Masters led by a rank-ninety-four Titled Douluo and secretly moved close enough to hear them.
• The Titled Douluo’s son asked whether they should search for Batian and Zhantian, but the Titled Douluo called them useless and refused to send anyone back.

Huo Yuhao followed the Heavenly Dragon Sect's party through Fallen Dragon Canyon and discovered the source of its bloodline-purifying aura: a sinister floating blood pool. As he shielded himself from its invasive blood qi, Electrolux warned that the pool involved power beyond the mortal realm.

• Huo Yuhao learned that Long Batian and Long Zhantian were the sons of the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Level 94 grand elder, then tracked the sect party through the canyon.
• Huo Yuhao followed the party's carefully chosen safe route as it avoided powerful soul beasts and advanced deeper into Fallen Dragon Canyon.
• After four days, the party reached a basin containing a floating pool of viscous dark red liquid that released blood qi capable of purifying bloodlines.
• Huo Yuhao sensed the blood qi trying to penetrate and assimilate his vital blood, so he used the Heavenly Origin Art, Extreme Ice, and Extreme Water to defend himself.
• Electrolux warned Huo Yuhao that the blood pool seemed to involve a law-level power beyond the mortal realm.

Huo Yuhao watched the Heavenly Dragon Sect draw blood energy from an eerie pool and learned that it belonged to another point in time, causing the two Soul Douluos extracting it to age rapidly. Electrolux suggested the pool might be anchored by a rare treasure, but Huo Yuhao held back to see how the sect would counter the temporal cost.

• The Heavenly Dragon Sect's two Soul Douluos used lightning nets to extract blood energy from the floating pool while the young disciples absorbed it to strengthen their Martial Soul Origins.
• Huo Yuhao observed that the two Soul Douluos were rapidly aging as they continued extracting the blood energy.
• Electrolux explained that the pool was a projection from another time and that reaching across time accelerated the Soul Douluos' lifespans.
• Electrolux suggested that a wondrous object at the pool's source might anchor its spacetime node.
• Huo Yuhao considered the potential treasure and blood energy but stayed hidden to see how the Heavenly Dragon Sect would respond to the power of time.

Huo Yuhao watched the Heavenly Dragon Sect sacrifice two Soul Douluos to force a passage through time and space, allowing its chosen youths to absorb powerful blood energy and transform. The youths completed their gains, and the grand elder led them away while the two elders stayed behind as bait for approaching soul beasts.

• Huo Yuhao observed the Heavenly Dragon Sect use the remaining lifespans of two Soul Douluos to sustain the blood-energy passage.
• The youths’ bloodlines and bodies strengthened, and the grand elder’s eldest son evolved his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline into a true dragon bloodline.
• After two more days, the blood-energy plundering ended, and the grand elder’s eldest son transformed his fourth soul ring from a thousand-year ring into a ten-thousand-year ring.
• The two Soul Douluos collapsed after withdrawing the formation, and the grand elder ordered them to spend their remaining life force attracting soul beasts.
• The grand elder led the transformed youths away as soul beasts converged on the basin, leaving the two Soul Douluos behind.

Huo Yuhao watched the Purple Extremity Heavenly Thunder Dragon arrive at the blood pool and flee from its time-warping danger, then investigated the dragon blood essence. He realized that Soul Beasts seemed deliberately barred from attaining complete bloodlines, unlike humans, and connected the restriction to the rare exceptions of the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian.

• Huo Yuhao concealed himself as high-ranking lesser dragons gathered around the basin but stopped short of the blood pool’s dangerous boundary.
• The Purple Extremity Heavenly Thunder Dragon arrived, recognized the humans’ remains, and left without approaching the pool.
• Huo Yuhao noted the dragon’s departure direction and entered the basin behind a shield of extreme ice.
• Huo Yuhao examined the blood essence and realized the Purple Extremity Heavenly Thunder Dragon’s true dragon bloodline remained incomplete despite its age and strength.
• Huo Yuhao compared the dragon with other powerful Soul Beasts and concluded that Soul Beasts were restricted from achieving perfect bloodlines, while his human body could complete theirs.
• Huo Yuhao recalled that only the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian possessed complete true dragon bloodlines.

Huo Yuhao assessed the deadly time-law currents around the suspended blood pool and realized ordinary defenses could not withstand them. Remembering Electrolux’s teaching that time and space formed a unified whole, he saw that spatial power might let him disrupt the time law.

• Huo Yuhao considered the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian, reflecting on how Di Tian’s legendary lore contrasted with his poor combat record across later eras.
• Huo Yuhao judged that his soul core, ultimate attributes, and Heavenly Creation Cauldron still could not protect him from the blood pool’s time-law currents.
• Huo Yuhao recalled Electrolux teaching him that time and space depended on each other and formed one unified framework.
• Huo Yuhao realized that manipulating space might let him deconstruct the time law without mastering time itself.

Huo Yuhao studied the blood pool’s temporal power and discovered how to fuse it with spatial power. He created a space-time membrane that could shield his hand and objects from ordinary forces, then used it to reverse a rock’s fall and restore it to the wall.

• Huo Yuhao used his soul and spiritual abilities to trap a wisp of temporal power in spatial energy, briefly forming a miniature space-time point before it collapsed.
• Huo Yuhao analyzed the failed construct and concluded that space and time could be transformed into each other and fused.
• Huo Yuhao developed a controlled blue-white space-time power and formed a membrane around his right hand that existed beyond the Douluo Plane’s current laws.
• Huo Yuhao tested the membrane by stopping a falling rock and found that conventional attacks could not damage it.
• Huo Yuhao reversed time around the rock, sending it and its fragments back to the wall and restoring it to its original state.

Huo Yuhao used his space-time membrane to absorb the blood qi in Fallen Dragon Canyon without suffering the Time Law’s effects, advancing to rank forty-five. Seeking the source of the power, he entered the suspended blood pool and arrived in a separate space-time above an endless river.

• Huo Yuhao used his reconstructed space-time conversion to shield himself from the Time Law and safely absorb the blood qi.
• Huo Yuhao meditated for six hours as his titan divine blood consumed the blood qi, raising his soul power to rank forty-five.
• Huo Yuhao exhausted the stray blood qi and decided to reach the source in the suspended blood pool.
• Huo Yuhao leapt into the blood pool, crossed into an independent space-time, and found himself floating above a vast, endless river.
