After reaching Yellow Sand City, Xu Huxiao’s team prepared to travel into the Lost Grand Canyon to find a Golden Rock Giant Elephant for his third Soul Ring. The teachers planned a wilderness training exercise, but the students’ suggestions about riding camels or ostriches tested Borba’s patience, and Gale stepped in to handle them.

• Ao Li'ao predicted that the Upper Three Sects position would remain vacant, while Xu Huxiao considered how Bibi Dong’s rise and transformation could soon disrupt the continent.
• Borba arranged for Xu Huxiao’s team to hunt a Golden Rock Giant Elephant and assist Punishment Warriors in investigating the Hyena Soul Bandit Group as part of their academy assessment.
• Xu Huxiao and the others traveled for a month to Yellow Sand City, where Gale obtained information about the elephant herd from the local Spirit Hall Sub-Hall.
• Borba told the team they would leave their carriages and travel on foot toward the Lost Grand Canyon, but Ao Li'ao proposed camels and Yun Ji and Orleans suggested Flame Ostriches.
• Borba grew impatient with the students’ distractions, but Gale stopped him and took over the discussion, prompting the narration to note Gale’s higher rank and Xu Huxiao’s role in his advancement.

After Xu Huxiao’s team prepared for a wilderness training trip, he and Gui Mei discussed the planned ambush against him in secret. They confirmed that two Titled Douluos and other allies would help turn the trap against Shadow Dragon Hall, and Lin Mengmeng joined their conversation.

• Gale promoted Yun Ji, Orleans, and Ao Li'ao to travel by ostrich or camel under a race with rewards and punishments, while the other students chose to walk or ride.
• Borba privately decided to include Gale among his assassination targets, while Yu Yuanying planned to target only Xu Huxiao to avoid provoking Spirit Hall and other powerful factions.
• Gui Mei entered Xu Huxiao’s room, and the two used the Crystal Blue Dolphin to speak privately in its virtual azure world.
• Xu Huxiao told Gui Mei that Borba would use special training to lure the group into the Death Desert after Xu obtained his third Soul Ring.

• Lin Mengmeng appeared through the Crystal Blue Dolphin and greeted Xu Huxiao and Gui Mei.

The team traveled to the Lost Grand Canyon, where Gale taught the students to consider their abilities before making decisions and to treat Soul Beast hunting seriously. After Borba appointed Orleans captain of the hunt, she began assigning roles to help Xu Huxiao capture the Golden Rock Giant Elephant he wanted.

• Xu Huxiao and Gui Mei rode ahead while Gui Mei explained the canyon's dangers and recalled his past there with Elder Purple Scorpion.
• Gui Mei warned that hunting a ten-thousand-year Golden Rock Giant Elephant would be difficult, but Xu Huxiao said he was seventy or eighty percent confident and would seek Gui Mei and Elder Purple Scorpion's help if needed.
• The team gathered at the cliff after Ao Li'ao, Orleans, and Yun Ji struggled with their mounts and had to return them before continuing on foot.
• Gale reprimanded the three for choosing mounts they could not handle and reminded everyone that Soul Masters must learn from mistakes and approach their profession with reverence.
• Borba appointed Orleans team captain and put her in charge of the Soul Beast hunt, and she began assigning tasks to help Xu Huxiao capture his target.

Xu Huxiao led the team through the Lost Grand Canyon, using their skills and teamwork to survive five days of exploration. When their supplies ran low, he revealed that the Golden Rock Giant Elephant Herd was hidden inside the sandstorm nearby, and Gale explained why Xu Huxiao had spent days studying the herd instead of approaching it.

• Orleans assigned the team's duties, and Xu Huxiao adjusted their route before they entered the canyon to search for the Golden Rock Giant Elephants.
• The team survived ambushes, sandstorms, and poisoning over five days, while Xu Huxiao used his Bone-Scale Dragon Wings to navigate and the support members treated injuries and poison.
• Orleans warned Xu Huxiao that their food and water would last only through the rest of the day, so he gathered everyone and declared that they would hunt their Soul Beast that day.
• Xu Huxiao showed the team that the elephant herd was less than three li away inside the sandstorm, prompting Yan to question why they had spent days circling it.
• Orleans, Yun Ji, Hu Liena, and Bao Jingjing rebuked Yan, and he apologized before Gale explained that Xu Huxiao had been studying the herd's weaknesses.
• Gale revealed that the herd numbered in the hundreds, included multiple ten-thousand-year beasts, and was led by an Elephant King, leaving Ao Li'ao and the others terrified.

Xu Huxiao insisted that he could hunt a Golden Rock Giant Elephant despite the danger posed by the herd, and explained that his father’s Self-Created Soul Skill could counter its shockwave silence. The chapter ended with Xu Huxiao demonstrating the technique by reducing a stone pillar to powder, leaving his teachers and teammates stunned.

• Borba warned Xu Huxiao that the nearly hundred-strong Golden Rock Giant Elephant herd was led by an Elephant King and could kill even a Title Douluo.
• Hu Liena discovered that large herds could silence Soul Skills through continuous shockwaves and stun opponents under an Elephant King’s command.
• Gale proposed that the team retreat and find a lone elephant or small herd later, but Xu Huxiao declared that he was ninety percent certain he could hunt one that day.
• Xu Huxiao explained that his father’s Self-Created Soul Skill, Elephant Shakes the Heavens, could counter the herd’s shockwave frequency.
• Xu Huxiao matched the stone pillar’s frequency and struck it, collapsing it into stone powder as everyone watched in shock.

Xu Huxiao demonstrated how he could use vibrational frequencies to silence Soul Skills, while concealing that his technique relied on Shocking a Hundred Miles rather than his father's Elephant Shakes the Heavens. After his test convinced Gale and Borba of the effect, he argued that the team could hunt the Golden Rock Giant Elephants by countering their Hell Elephant Roar.

• Xu Huxiao explained that he had developed a vibrational technique by studying the Golden Rock Giant Elephants and claimed it came from his father Xu Bayan's Elephant Shakes the Heavens.
• Orleans dragged her reluctant brother Ao Li'ao forward, and Borba urged Gale and the team to let Xu Huxiao demonstrate the technique on them.
• Xu Huxiao sent golden ripples through the ground, causing the Soul Rings of the Soul Grandmaster team members to dim and preventing them from using their Soul Skills.
• Gale and Borba felt the vibrations disrupt their Martial Souls, though their greater Soul Power let them resist the effect.
• After Xu Huxiao ended the demonstration, he said he could use the technique to break the Golden Rock Giant Elephants' Hell Elephant Roar and make hunting them possible.

Xu Huxiao persuaded Gale and Borba to help him hunt a Ten Thousand Year Elephant King, then launched their plan to separate the elephant herd and kill its leader. His compressed Purple Light Bullet struck the Elephant King, whose furious cry sounded from within the yellow sandstorm.

• Xu Huxiao explained how he planned to counter the elephant herd's Soul Skill silence, and Gale agreed to help after Borba urged him to trust the plan and Xu Bayan's recorded approval.
• Xu Huxiao assessed Gale's large-scale control abilities and the group devised a hunting plan, while Borba secretly intended to let Xu Huxiao die if danger arose.
• Xu Huxiao led the team to a canyon overlook, gained Soul Power from the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill, and prepared to lure out the herd as Gale and Borba took their positions.
• Borba's Lightning Wind Blades merged into Xu Huxiao's Shadow Counter-Spike Light Armor, which he used to form a powerful Purple Light Bullet.
• Xu Huxiao flew toward the Golden Rock Giant Elephant Herd and fired the bullet at the Elephant King, drawing a furious cry from the yellow sandstorm.

Xu Huxiao faced the enraged Golden Rock Giant Elephant Herd after his attack provoked its Hell Elephant Roar and silenced Soul Skills across the area. As the herd charged, his companions steadied themselves and watched in awe as the Golden Rock Giant Elephant King emerged.

• Xu Huxiao's Purple Light Bullet wounded the Elephant King only superficially but enraged it, and its Hell Elephant Roar silenced Soul Skills across a wide area.
• Xu Huxiao dropped from the cliff and landed safely as Yan and Xie Yue began doing push-ups, soon joined by Ao Li'ao.
• The Golden Rock Giant Herd charged out of the sandstorm, while the elephant cries frightened Xu Huxiao's companions on the cliff.
• Ghost Child warned the others to take cover, and Hu Liena rallied the team to control their fear and trust Xu Huxiao.
• The Golden Rock Giant Elephant King appeared at the front of the herd, revealing its immense size, eight tusks, and nearly impenetrable hide.

Xu Huxiao used Shocking a Hundred Miles to exploit the Golden Rock Giant Elephants’ poor dynamic vision, making their charging herd perceive the ground around him as a bottomless pit. The Elephant King could still see Xu Huxiao, but it could not make the herd attack him, and it began devising a slower approach.

• Xu Huxiao identified the eighty-seven-thousand-year Golden Rock Giant Elephant King as a target whose Soul Ring he could absorb after unleashing his Blood-Essence Flowers.
• Xu Huxiao used Shocking a Hundred Miles to still vibrations within ten meters and braced himself against the charging herd.
• The Golden Rock Giant Elephant herd avoided Xu Huxiao’s ten-meter circle, leaving him unharmed as the elephants thundered past.
• The Elephant King saw Xu Huxiao but could not detect his location through Hell Elephant Roar, so it could not direct the herd to attack him.
• The Elephant King named Xu Huxiao “Pit” and decided to halt the herd and approach him slowly from multiple directions.

Xu Huxiao broke the Golden Rock Giant Elephant herd’s silence effect and worked with Gale to isolate the Elephant King. With Gale able to restrain the herd for only three minutes, Xu Huxiao fought the Elephant King alone and began using his newly comprehended Golden Dragon Hidden Force.

• Xu Huxiao disrupted the Elephant King’s command vibrations and used same-frequency resonance to break the herd’s Hell Elephant Roar silence effect.
• Gale restrained the elephant herd with his Azure Sky Demon Vine Soul Skills, extending its separation from the Elephant King, and warned Xu Huxiao he could hold it for only three minutes.
• Gale asked Borba to help kill the Elephant King, and Borba agreed before turning away with a sinister sneer.
• Xu Huxiao used White-Ring Flash Shift to reach the Elephant King, tested its defenses with a palm strike, and watched it activate Elephant God Heavy Infusion and Fearless Charge.
• Xu Huxiao cloaked himself in Void Frequency, evaded the Elephant King’s attacks, and landed six rapid palm strikes that applied his Golden Dragon Hidden Force.

Xu Huxiao battled the Elephant King, planting hidden force inside it while surviving its Heaven-Collapsing Earth-Splitting attacks. As he prepared to finish the fight, Borba arrived and launched a thunderous axe strike.

• Xu Huxiao landed six more palm strikes, then the Elephant King unleashed Heaven-Collapsing Earth-Splitting across a wide area.
• Hu Liena was struck by falling rock, and Yun Ji healed her wound as she watched Xu Huxiao fight.
• Xu Huxiao escaped the attack and tested its force against his Silver Body before resuming his hidden-force strikes.
• The Elephant King used a close-range vibration to counter Xu Huxiao, but Xu Huxiao evaded it and delivered six more hidden-force strikes.
• As the Elephant King prepared another wide-area attack, Borba leapt down and shouted that he would help Xu Huxiao, bringing his axe down in Thunderous Earth-Splitting Slash.

Xu Huxiao defeated the Golden Rock Giant Elephant King by detonating hidden forces inside its body, then hid inside its corpse to absorb its Soul Ring as the elephant herd gathered around. Gale and the others feared for him, but Hu Liena noticed the herd was not attacking the corpse.

• Borba tried to block Xu Huxiao’s retreat, but the Elephant King’s silencing frequency disrupted his Soul Skill and its trunk sent him crashing into a cliff.
• Xu Huxiao escaped the Elephant King’s second Heaven-Collapsing Earth-Splitting attack, then detonated twenty-one Golden Dragon Hidden Forces inside its heart and killed it.
• Gale rescued the unconscious Borba while Xu Huxiao stayed in the canyon and asked Gale to cover him with Azure Sky Demon Mist Fruit.
• As the elephant herd broke free and charged toward the Elephant King, Xu Huxiao hid inside its corpse to absorb its Soul Ring.
• Gale told the anxious team that Xu Huxiao was inside the Elephant King’s stomach, and Hu Liena pointed out that the herd had surrounded the corpse without attacking it.

Gale explained that the Golden Rock Giant Elephant Herd’s three-day formation was believed to be a resurrection ritual, while Xu Huxiao hid inside the Elephant King’s stomach to absorb its Soul Ring. The chapter left Xu Huxiao sensing the herd channeling Soul Power into the corpse and wondering whether it could revive the Elephant King.

• The Golden Rock Giant Elephant Herd formed rotating circles around its fallen king, and Gale explained that the ritual lasted three days and had sometimes preceded elephants’ return from death.
• Hu Liena insisted that Xu Huxiao would succeed, while Gale and the others worried about the risks of absorbing the Elephant King’s potentially fifty-thousand-year Soul Ring.
• Ao Li'ao suggested that the resurrection might turn Xu Huxiao into an elephant, and Orleans scolded him for speaking carelessly.
• Gale assigned Xie Yue, Ao Li'ao, Bao Jingjing, and himself to search for food and water while Orleans and Hu Liena monitored the canyon with signal flares.
• Inside the Elephant King’s stomach, Xu Huxiao sensed the herd transmitting Soul Power into the corpse through the rocks and wondered if it was the secret of resurrection.

Xu Huxiao hid inside the dead Elephant King while its herd performed a three-day resurrection ritual, then drew in the Elephant King’s eighty-six-thousand-year Soul Ring and began absorbing it. The Little Golden Dragon devoured the Soul Beast’s residual spiritual force, and Xu Huxiao prepared to refine the ring’s energy and gain its Heaven-Collapsing Earth-Splitting ability.

• Xu Huxiao reasoned that the herd’s ritual could not truly resurrect the dead Elephant King and waited inside its sealed corpse for the herd to settle.
• After half an hour of recovery, Xu Huxiao drew the Elephant King’s black Soul Ring into the corpse and confirmed that the herd did not react.
• Xu Huxiao began absorbing the ring, intending to obtain the Elephant King’s Heaven-Collapsing Earth-Splitting ability.
• The Elephant King’s residual spiritual force appeared in Xu Huxiao’s Dark Sun Mental World and charged at him.
• Xu Huxiao summoned the Little Golden Dragon, which swallowed the Elephant King’s residual spiritual force and then moved toward his Platinum Dragon-Scaled Arms Martial Soul.

Xu Huxiao’s absorption of the Elephant King’s Soul Ring unexpectedly drew energy from the elephant herd and began mutating the ring. As the herd changed its ritual outside the canyon, Xu Huxiao sensed another abnormal change, leaving the result of his absorption uncertain.

• Little Golden Dragon merged with the two Platinum Black Dragons, which devoured fragments of the Elephant King Soul Ring.
• An earthen-yellow energy pillar from the elephant herd replenished the Soul Ring and caused a blood-red trace to appear, prompting Xu Huxiao to continue absorbing the energy in hopes of increasing the ring’s age.
• Ghost Child knocked Borba unconscious again when he began to wake, while Orleans, Hu Liena, Yan, and Gui Mei stayed behind to watch the canyon.
• The Golden Rock Giant Elephants bowed toward the Elephant King’s corpse every five laps, and Hu Liena wondered whether their joyful calls meant their king would be resurrected.
• Gui Mei sensed that Xu Huxiao was absorbing the herd’s energy and kept watch rather than interrupting him, but Xu Huxiao sensed another abnormal change after the elephants altered their ritual.
