Chapter Summaries

Huo Lei and his companions traveled into the Star Dou Great Forest, hoping to find Xiao Wu and the powerful Soul Beasts connected to her. After spotting Spirit Hall’s search party, Huo Lei hid the group with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and prepared to follow them.

• Huo Feng, Huo Lei, Jin Shan, An Jun, and Lin Yin left Blazing Fire Academy with pink strawberries from Yunxiang and rode south for three days.
• The five entered the Star Dou Great Forest and traveled deeper until they reached the boundary between the Thousand-Year and Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast areas.
• Huo Lei worried that Spirit Hall’s search party might already be ahead of them, while considering the Soul Rings he hoped to obtain from Xiao Wu and the great Soul Beasts.
• Jin Shan took the first watch, but soon detected a group approaching from the south and told everyone to pack up.
• Huo Lei used his Fiery Golden Eyes to identify Yue Guan, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, Yan, Ghost Douluo, and twenty other Spirit Hall members.
• Huo Lei concealed himself and his four companions with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and told them they would follow Spirit Hall’s search party.

Huo Lei and his four companions secretly followed the Spirit Hall party through the Star Dou Great Forest, hoping to learn its purpose and find a chance to strike. After a night’s rest and a grueling pursuit, they continued tailing the group toward the forest’s core region.

• Huo Lei proposed observing the Spirit Hall party before attacking, and Huo Feng, An Jun, and Jin Shan agreed.
• Huo Lei used the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to spy on the Spirit Hall party as they made camp and rested for the night.
• The next morning, Huo Lei and his companions followed the twenty-five Spirit Hall members as they hurried into the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Ghost Douluo’s speed forced Huo Lei to push the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud hard, while the presence of two Titled Douluo kept nearby Soul Beasts from attacking the party.
• After four hours, the Spirit Hall party stopped to rest, and Jin Shan told Huo Lei they were likely nearing the Titan Giant Python and the Sky Azure Bull Python.
• When Ghost Douluo stood and the Spirit Hall party prepared to move on, Huo Lei and his companions rose to follow.

Huo Lei followed the Spirit Hall group into the Star Dou Great Forest, where they found Xiao Wu beside the Titan Giant Ape at a lakeside. As Xiao Wu challenged the Spirit Hall experts, Huo Lei prepared to let them strike first so he could claim her as his Eighth Soul Ring.

• Huo Lei and his companions followed Ghost Douluo and the Spirit Hall group deeper into the forest, noticing the Soul Beasts had disappeared.
• Huo Lei recognized Xiao Wu’s voice, and his companions realized Spirit Hall had come to capture her; he warned them not to kill her because he wanted her as his Eighth Soul Ring.
• Huo Lei halted about a hundred meters behind Spirit Hall and told his group to wait until he put away the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud before attacking.
• Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo led the Spirit Hall experts toward Xiao Wu, while the twenty men in black formed a circle around the Golden Generation and released their Martial Souls.
• The groups reached a lakeside clearing, where Xiao Wu stood on the Titan Giant Ape’s shoulder and challenged the Spirit Hall experts to settle matters that day.
• The Titan Giant Ape’s eyes blazed, and its powerful presence sent ripples across the lake.

Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo attacked the Titan Giant Ape to capture Xiao Wu, but Er Ming’s Gravity Control Domain overwhelmed Ghost Douluo and forced Chrysanthemum Douluo to abandon his plan. As Chrysanthemum Douluo evaded a threat from beneath the lake, an enormous bull’s head emerged from the water.

• Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo released their Martial Souls and charged across the lake toward Xiao Wu while the Titan Giant Ape confronted them.
• Er Ming sent Xiao Wu behind it, then used its Gravity Control Domain to trap Ghost Douluo and alter gravity around him.
• Er Ming struck Ghost Douluo with a powerful punch, blasting him back toward the Spirit Hall experts on shore.
• Chrysanthemum Douluo abandoned his attack on Xiao Wu and used his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to propel himself upward from a danger below.
• A giant bull’s head burst from the lake, and Chrysanthemum Douluo’s Martial Soul Avatar rebounded from its strike.

The Sky Azure Bull Python joined the Titan Giant Ape to protect Xiao Wu, but Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo trapped both beasts with their Two Extremes Stillness Domain. Huo Lei seized the opening and assigned his allies their targets as Spirit Hall prepared to capture Xiao Wu and escape.

• The Sky Azure Bull Python emerged from the lake, activated its Slow Domain, and ordered the Titan Giant Ape to kill the Spirit Hall group.
• Huo Lei recognized the two beasts’ strength and worried that his small group would struggle to defeat them.
• The Titan Giant Ape leaped at Spirit Hall while Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo joined their powers to use the Two Extremes Stillness Domain, freezing the beasts and the Sky Azure Bull Python’s attack.
• Huo Lei ordered his teacher to strike the Titan Giant Ape, his father to absorb its Soul Ring, An Jun and Lin Yin to attack Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and himself to handle the others and Xiao Wu.
• Ghost Douluo warned that the domain would hold only briefly and urged his allies to seize Xiao Wu and flee.
