Lu Chen awakened as the Heavenly Dao of Douluo Continent and discovered that Tang San had already been born, while Bibi Dong rejected young Qian Renxue and Qian Xunji was killed by Tang Hao.

• Qian Renxue tried to speak to Bibi Dong, who glared at her and walked away, leaving Qian Renxue hurt and confused about her mother’s hatred.

Qian Renxue persuaded Qian Daoliu to let her begin hunting soul beasts after recovering, and he sent Jiang Mo and Qianjun to guard her. In the Star Great Forest, they encountered a fifty-thousand-year Holy Light Unicorn, and Qianjun prepared to fight it while Jiang Mo protected Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue and her guards encountered a fifty-thousand-year-old Holy Light Unicorn in the Star Great Forest, but it showed no hostility and seemed drawn to her.

• Qian Renxue told the unicorn, "Don't resist, okay? It won't hurt," and the unicorn stopped pacing and softened its gaze.
• Qian Jun and Jiang Mo were shocked by the unicorn's obedience, while Qian Renxue believed Lord Heavenly Dao had arranged the encounter.

The Holy Light Unicorn sacrificed itself to give Qian Renxue a soul ring, astonishing Qian Jun and Jiang Mo. At the Star Great Forest, Da Ming sensed the sacrifice, and Xiao Wu and Er Ming tried to understand why its aura seemed so weak.

• Qian Renxue touched the Holy Light Unicorn’s horn, and the unicorn shattered Qian Jun and Jiang Mo’s seals and began its sacrifice.
• Qian Renxue received the Holy Light Unicorn’s Soul Power as a black soul ring with a trace of red formed above her Angel Martial Soul.

After a seventy-thousand-year Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle sacrificed itself to Qian Renxue, raising her Soul Power to level twenty-nine, a ninety-thousand-year Grand Radiant Golden Lotus arrived and began another sacrifice. Qian Jun and Jiang Mo remained baffled by the unprecedented events, while Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu realized the mystery centered on Qian Renxue and found themselves restrained by the sacrifice.

• The Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle sacrificed itself to Qian Renxue, bringing her Soul Power to level twenty-nine and giving her a second black soul ring marked with red.

• Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu suspected that Qian Renxue was behind the impossible sacrifices, while the lotus's sacrifice kept them from moving.

After Qian Renxue became a level thirty-five Soul Elder through three soul-beast sacrifices, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo treated her as Spirit Hall’s future heir and prepared to protect her. Qian Renxue sensed something hidden nearby, exposing Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu, who fled into the forest.

After Qian Jun and Jiang Mo brought Qian Renxue back from the Star Great Forest, Qian Daoliu celebrated her extraordinary Soul Rings and announced plans to make her Spirit Hall’s new Saintess. Once Qian Renxue left, Qian Daoliu demanded a full account of the trip, while she headed toward the Papal Hall to visit her mother.

Qian Renxue came to tell Bibi Dong that she had advanced to Soul Elder, but Bibi Dong’s hostility and frightening appearance left her too scared to explain.

• Qian Renxue insisted that she had not come to anger Bibi Dong, and Bibi Dong fell silent.

Qian Renxue visited Bibi Dong to share her progress and possible appointment as Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden, but her blunt remarks enraged Bibi Dong. Qian Daoliu and his companions intervened before Bibi Dong could attack, then left with Qian Renxue, leaving Bibi Dong alone and furious.

• Lu Chen watched Qian Renxue’s reaction, then wondered whether the Angel God was dead and decided not to test its Inheritance Grounds.

Qian Renxue learned that Spirit Tea had stabilized her soul power after her rapid advancement, but Lu Chen warned her that the Outworld Evil God was progressing just as quickly. She left more alert to the threat, though she believed his coming gains in skills and weapons mattered less than soul power.

• Qian Renxue drank Lu Chen’s Spirit Tea, which resolved the instability caused by accepting three ten-thousand-year spirit beast sacrifices.
• Lu Chen told Qian Renxue that the Outworld Evil God had made tremendous progress while she was in the Star Great Forest, and that they were evenly matched.

• Lu Chen warned that the Outworld Evil God would make a leap in skills and weapons over the next year, including gaining the ability to defeat a Soul Saint as a Grand Soul Master.
• Qian Renxue felt relieved that the Evil God’s progress was not in soul power, but resolved not to waste time strengthening her foundation.

Lu Chen offered Qian Renxue a 50,000-year Soul Bone and the truth about why Bibi Dong did not love her in exchange for insulting Bibi Dong and challenging her for the pope’s position. The chapter left Qian Renxue weighing the bargain while Bibi Dong ordered the ruined Papal Hall repaired.

• Lu Chen promised to tell Qian Renxue the truth about why Bibi Dong did not love her, claiming that everyone else’s understanding of it was false or incomplete.
• Qian Renxue hesitated over whether to accept the bargain, torn between refusing to mistreat her mother and wanting to know the truth.
• Bibi Dong surveyed the damaged Papal Hall, complained about Qian Renxue, and ordered a guard to have the hall repaired within an hour.

Qian Renxue used the Papal Token to force her way into the Papal Hall and confront Bibi Dong, hoping to learn why her mother did not love her. She called Bibi Dong the worst mother and biggest villain in the world, while Lu Chen wondered whether her extra insults would still earn a reward.

• A Soul Saint and his disciples repaired the Papal Hall, and Bibi Dong rewarded them for their work.

• Lu Chen watched from the Depths of Heaven and wondered whether Qian Renxue would receive a reward for adding extra insults.

• Lu Chen examined Bibi Dong’s divine power and found that it was impure Rakshasa power alongside a wisp of blood-red Asura power.

Bibi Dong opposed Qian Renxue’s appointment as Spirit Hall’s Holy Maiden, but Qian Daoliu used the Elder Hall’s voting rule to secure unanimous support. After Bibi Dong left in fury, Rakshasa’s influence began to overwhelm her, while Lu Chen sensed something strange about the Rakshasa God’s divine soul.

• Bibi Dong objected to Qian Daoliu’s plan to appoint Qian Renxue as Holy Maiden, citing Spirit Hall’s rule that the Pope must approve the choice.
