• The Heaven Sea Alliance Grand Competition concluded, Eastsea Academy’s teams achieved strong results, and two years passed.

Huo Yuhao condensed his first Blood Essence Soul Core at the Soul King level, demonstrated the power it gave him, and prepared to travel to Mingdu. News of attacks on Zhen Hua and a Dark Department branch revealed that the Holy Spirit Cult had powerful Evil Spirit Masters and had seized records about people with Evil Martial Souls.

• Huo Yuhao used the help of Muyue, Hua Yichen, and the Snow Empress's divine consciousness to condense his Blood Essence Soul Core in two hours.
• Huo Yuhao showed the Snow Empress his increased power by using a Sky Ripping Claw that tore through the sea and opened spatial rifts.

• Na Nali reported that four Evil Spirit Masters above the Super Douluo level had attacked multiple targets, captured two targets, and taken records about people under Evil Martial Soul screening.

• Hua Yichen reviewed information on three powerful evil soul masters and ordered Soul Masters at risk of turning evil to be transferred for safety.
• Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and Li Yucheng traveled by train, where a quiet, cold boy joined them in the VIP carriage.
• At Star Dou Transfer Station, Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena saw Soul Beasts and humans sharing the platform in harmony.
• A blast shattered the station's glass dome, and blood mist enveloped the train and platform.
• Li Yucheng tried to respond, but ghostly hands formed from the mist seized Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and the boy and pulled them into the void.
• The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear attacked the blood mist, but it vanished, leaving the bear roaring in fury.

Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and Yuanen Yehui were captured by a Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master who planned to kill them as future threats. After the captor left them under guard, Huo Yuhao quietly indicated that Gu Yuena could escape unnoticed.

• Li Yucheng realized the chaos at the platform required him to contact the Spirit Pagoda as a gray mist and a figure vanished unseen.
• Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and Yuanen Yehui woke inside blood-colored barriers and were dragged through a fall before landing before a Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master.
• The evil soul master identified the three as promising young talents and explained that she meant to eliminate future threats to the Federation.
• Huo Yuhao noticed that the evil soul master's interest centered on him because of the deathly aura she had sensed.
• After the evil soul master vanished, Yuanen Yehui apologized and offered to draw her attention away so Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena could escape.
• Huo Yuhao told Gu Yuena that the evil soul master had not noticed her and that they could likely get away.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena realized that Na Nali’s apparent capture was part of a larger plan, while a Holy Spirit Cult evil soul master identified Huo Yuhao as a possible Holy Son. When the attacker tried to seize Na Nali, she revealed her Rank 98 strength and Four-Word Battle Armor.

• Huo Yuhao inferred that Na Nali had allowed herself to be captured as part of a Spirit Pagoda operation, and he and Gu Yuena recognized that they were all acting.
• The Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master told Qilin that Huo Yuhao’s deathly aura made him a promising Holy Son and demanded that someone receive her.
• Na Nali decided to protect Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, then apologized as she prepared to take her own life rather than fall back into the evil soul masters’ hands.
• The Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master seized Na Nali’s wrist and tried to seal her Soul Power, but Na Nali resisted and announced that she was tired of being scolded over the attackers.
• Na Nali summoned a black bell, displayed six black and three red soul rings, and covered herself in Dark Green Battle Armor, revealing herself as a Rank 98 Four-Word Battle Armor Master.

Na Nali battled the Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master, who escaped by sending a clone to draw her away. Huo Yuhao then found the real evil soul master and confronted her.

• Na Nali used a bell and a Heavy Ion Ray to attack the Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master, breaking her arm and forcing her to retreat.
• Huo Yuhao explained to Gu Yuena that the evil soul master's blood-based martial soul and the Dragon King Bloodline had aggravated her desire for powerful bloodline energy.
• The Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master split into fleeing blood-light forms, and Na Nali pursued one of them.
• The real evil soul master emerged from beneath a collapsed hill, having used a clone wearing her battle armor to escape Na Nali.
• Huo Yuhao appeared beside the evil soul master, who realized she had captured far more dangerous people than she expected.

Huo Yuhao fought and subdued a powerful Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master, then used Old Yi’s magic to question her about the Holy Spirit Cult. He learned that the cult served a deity’s divine consciousness undergoing Nirvana and was seeking powerful candidates and Divinity Fragments.

• Huo Yuhao used his battle armor, Body Spirit Secondary Awakening, and Light of Destruction to fight the Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master.
• The Evil Soul Master unleashed Blood Prison Thousand Eyes and Ten Thousand Souls Devour, but Huo Yuhao countered with his domain and Soul Shock.
• The Evil Soul Master realized Huo Yuhao had a Soul Core and tried to recruit him as the Holy Spirit Cult’s next Holy Son.
• Huo Yuhao let Old Yi take control and use Soul Control Flame to suppress the curse preventing the Evil Soul Master from speaking.
• The Evil Soul Master revealed that the Holy Spirit Cult sought powerful candidates and Divinity Fragments, and that its deity was divine consciousness undergoing Nirvana.
• Huo Yuhao and the spirits concluded that the Holy Spirit Cult was one of the dangers left behind when the Golden Dragon King killed deities.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena helped Na Nali capture a Holy Spirit Cult Super Douluo, and Na Nali crippled the prisoner before escorting them and Yuanen Yehui toward Mingdu. The Holy Spirit Cult shifted to a quieter strategy while Qian Gu Dong Feng prepared the Spirit Pagoda’s younger generation for Huo Yuhao’s arrival.

• Huo Yuhao learned that the Holy Spirit Cult’s hidden divine consciousness might possess a powerful God Position, while Old Yi released the cursed Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master before her soul collapsed.
• Na Nali returned to her original appearance, restrained the Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master, and shattered her Soul Core to cripple her cultivation.
• Na Nali thanked Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, then agreed to escort them and Yuanen Yehui to Mingdu.
• Tong Yu reported Blood Eyes’s capture to the Holy Spirit Cult’s leader, who ordered the cult to keep a low profile and sow discord among Douluo Continent’s forces.
• Qian Gu Dong Feng learned Huo Yuhao was nearing Mingdu and ordered the younger generation to test him as the next Spirit Transmitter.
• Huo Yuhao watched Mingdu draw closer from the train as several young Spirit Pagoda talents anticipated his arrival.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena arrived in Mingdu after surviving an attack, and Gu Yuena brought him to stay at her home. That night, Huo Yuhao reunited with Di Tian, who said he had owed him much for ten thousand years.

• Huo Yuhao went outside at night and reunited with Di Tian, who told him he had owed him much for ten thousand years.

Huo Yuhao and Di Tian discussed the Holy Spirit’s god-level threat and the Godslayer-level Soul Cannon Shells, while Di Tian revealed that Chen Xinjie guarded one of the shells.

• Di Tian bowed to Huo Yuhao in gratitude for helping Star Dou endure and asked him to treat Master well.
• Huo Yuhao told Di Tian that the Holy Spirit had a god-level existence with divine consciousness above a Third Rank God.
• Di Tian suspected the Holy Spirit’s forces were targeting the Godslayer-level Soul Cannon Shells, and Huo Yuhao agreed that the weapons threatened them.
• Di Tian revealed that the shells were separately managed by the hall masters of Ming De Hall and War God Hall, and the Dark Department Head.
• Huo Yuhao warned Di Tian that Vast Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie, the War God Hall master, came from the Sea God Island lineage.
• Di Tian explained Chen Xinjie’s standing in the Federation, then reacted with surprise when he learned of Chen Xinjie’s connection to the Sea God.

Huo Yuhao discussed the danger of the Federation’s Godslayer-level Soul Cannon Shells with Di Tian and sought help from old friends in the War God Hall to protect them. After sharing a quiet moment with the Snow Empress, he went with Gu Yuena to the Mecha Master Association, where they found Li Yucheng with two others.

• Huo Yuhao warned Di Tian about the threat posed by the three Godslayer-level Soul Cannon Shells and offered to meet old friends in the War God Hall who could help protect them.
• Huo Yuhao returned to his room and reassured the Snow Empress that he would rely on his family instead of shouldering every burden alone.

• Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena traveled to Mecha Master Association Headquarters to meet Li Yucheng.
• Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena found Li Yucheng beside an old man and a young person, as someone asked why he had come to report after two years.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena visited the Heaven Dou City Mecha Association, where their reputations impressed President Zhang and Luo Guixing. On the upper floors, they met Feng Xuanang, who tried to recruit Huo Yuhao as his student before he could see the head chairman.

• Li Yucheng introduced Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena to President Zhang, who recognized Huo Yuhao and had Luo Guixing greet the Spirit Pagoda geniuses.
• Luo Guixing and the onlookers reacted to Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena's reputations, while Huo Yuhao used his Spiritual Power to make the crowd lose track of him.
• Li Yucheng left with Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena to meet the head president, and Luo Guixing admitted that the gap between himself and Huo Yuhao felt like heaven and earth.
• On the upper floors, Li Yucheng encountered Feng Xuanang, Xia Haoxuan's teacher, who greeted Huo Yuhao and offered to teach him instead of the busy head chairman.

Li Yucheng and Feng Xuanang argued over who should teach Huo Yuhao, until Yi Hongchen arrived and claimed him as his own student. Yi Hongchen led Huo Yuhao to a Manufacturing Room, leaving Feng Xuanang to regret missing the chance.

• Li Yucheng defended his bond as Huo Yuhao’s teacher when Feng Xuanang tried to recruit him.
• Li Yucheng revealed he had become a Level Nine Manufacturer after completing a Soul Power Amplifier with Huo Yuhao’s help.
• Yi Hongchen arrived, met Huo Yuhao, and ended the dispute by announcing that he would personally teach him.
• Yi Hongchen took Huo Yuhao and the others to a Manufacturing Room, while Feng Xuanang lamented that Li Yucheng had acted first.

Yi Hongchen discussed Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena’s talents and explained that Huo Yuhao would need the approval of Ming De Hall’s Hall Master to pursue his Natal Soul Tool research there. Huo Yuhao reflected on Golden Toad Douluo Wang Hongchen’s unusual path to the ultimate level through consuming rare metals.

• Yi Hongchen praised Huo Yuhao’s achievements in soul mastery and soul tools, comparing him to Spirit Ice Douluo.
• Gu Yuena suggested that modern specialization made it harder to develop as both a soul master and soul engineer.
• Yi Hongchen said he could offer Huo Yuhao convenience through the Mecha Master Association but could not admit him to Ming De Hall without its Hall Master’s approval.
• Huo Yuhao recalled that Golden Toad Douluo Wang Hongchen had reached the ultimate level by absorbing energy from rare metals, including Heaven Forging Metal.
• Huo Yuhao remembered that Wang Hongchen’s appetite for Heaven Forging Metal had repeatedly angered divine blacksmith Zhen Hua.

Huo Yuhao demonstrated extraordinary Soul Tool manufacturing talent at the Mecha Master Association and met Ling Zichen, whose offer to make him her assistant he rejected. Meanwhile, Di Tian questioned Wang Hongchen about Ming De Hall’s past actions and arranged for its research on Extraterrestrial Races to support the Spirit Pagoda.

• Yi Hongchen invited Huo Yuhao to demonstrate his abilities, and Gu Yuena drafted blueprints for him to improve.
• Huo Yuhao entered unity of body and mind and manufactured three level-six Soul Tools at once in under five minutes, astonishing Yi Hongchen.
• Ling Zichen arrived, introduced herself to Huo Yuhao, and asked him to be her assistant, but he said she was not qualified yet and requested access to the blueprint archive.
• Di Tian asked Wang Hongchen whether Ming De Hall had orchestrated public opinion against Shrek two years earlier, and Wang Hongchen admitted it had.
• Di Tian asked Wang Hongchen to let the Extraterrestrial Races assist the Spirit Pagoda’s research on Fierce Beast lightning tribulations, and Wang Hongchen agreed to coordinate it.
• Wang Hongchen received a report about Huo Yuhao’s ability to manufacture three Soul Tools simultaneously and was impressed by the possibility that it came from a method of using Spiritual Power.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena discussed Di Tian’s message and Gu Ruiqiu’s life before Ling Zichen told Huo Yuhao that the master of Ming De Hall had invited him. The invitation recognized his Soul Tool technique, and Ling Zichen challenged him to try a special Energy Research project as he left.

• Gu Yuena showed Huo Yuhao Di Tian’s message, and they agreed to test Shrek’s intentions after their future trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

• Ling Zichen challenged Huo Yuhao to try the Soul Tool Research Department’s special Energy Research project, but he continued toward the exit without stopping.

Huo Yuhao explained why the Federation’s forbidden Source Core research mattered, while Gu Yuena agreed not to interfere but warned that the Radical Faction was trying to use him. At home, Gu Yuena secretly tutored Xu Xiaoyan online, then a familiar golden figure arrived, prompting Gu Yuena to sit up expectantly.

• Huo Yuhao told Gu Yuena that Ling Zichen’s aura revealed the Headquarters was researching metal-source technology and a Single Positive Circulation Source Core.
• Gu Yuena recognized that Ling Zichen’s invitation had likely come from the Radical Faction, and warned that it wanted leverage over Huo Yuhao.

• Gu Yuena used a secret online identity to teach Xu Xiaoyan about Star Force Resonance, and Huo Yuhao helped answer a difficult question.
• A lively voice called out that Gu Yuena’s big sister had returned, and a golden figure rushed through the doorway.

Huo Yuhao met Gu Ruiqiu and spent time with her and Gu Yuena before learning that powerful Spirit Pagoda members were waiting to challenge him. He stayed away from Spirit Pagoda Headquarters for days to study at the Mecha Master Association, then finally headed toward central Mingdu, signaling that his visit to Ming De Hall was approaching.
