• Tang Wulin’s Blue Silver Grass spread across the Injection Room during his bloodline awakening, nearly crushing Xie Xie until Tang Wulin withdrew the vines.
• Tang Wulin discovered that his hair had turned long and blue with golden highlights, while Amber explained that appearance changes were normal after a Bloodline awakening.

Qiangu Qingfeng returned to the Spirit Pagoda and challenged Qiangu Dongfeng’s plan to raise prices for Soul Spirits and Soul Ascension Platform tickets. After revealing that they were equally powerful Limit Douluo, he left with his wife, Xia Zhengleng, to question their father, Qiangu Dieting, about the decision.

• Qiangu Dongfeng ordered every Spirit Pagoda branch to raise prices by 300 percent, then reduce the increase to 200 percent after three days, and assigned Han Tianyi to guide public opinion.

• Qiangu Dongfeng followed them, while Li Mengjie recognized Qiangu Qingfeng’s wife as Cold Melody Douluo Xia Zhengleng, and the officials wondered whether they could gain Qiangu Qingfeng’s support.

Qiangu Dieting expelled Qiangu Qingfeng from the family after Qingfeng refused to support the Spirit Pagoda’s price increase. Qiangu Dieting then sent Qiangu Dongfeng to oversee the plan against Anti-Entropy, while privately fearing the Spirit Pagoda’s downfall.

• Qiangu Dieting welcomed Qiangu Qingfeng and Xia Zhengleng, then ordered Qiangu Dongfeng out so he could speak with them privately.
• Qiangu Qingfeng questioned Qiangu Dieting about the Spirit Pagoda’s price increase, and Qiangu Dieting admitted he had ordered it to help fight Anti-Entropy.
• Qiangu Qingfeng refused to support the price increase, so Qiangu Dieting expelled him from the Qiangu Family and gave him a metal disc that had belonged to his mother.
• Qiangu Dongfeng returned and learned that Qiangu Dieting had expelled Qiangu Qingfeng, then reported that the arrangements for the plan were in place.
• Qiangu Dieting told Qiangu Dongfeng to monitor Leng Yaozhu and avoid Soul-Conducting Communication, then privately worried that Anti-Entropy might bring down the Spirit Pagoda.

Qiangu Dieting used the Tianji Wheel to learn that the Qiangu Family would be destroyed if it resisted Mo Yuan, so he expelled Qiangu Qingfeng and gave him the artifact in hopes of preserving the family line. Later, Mo Yuan warned Xu Xiaoyan that she could not join the army, and his Soul Guidance Communicator rang with a call from Zang Xin.

• The Tianji Wheel revealed to Qiangu Dieting that the Qiangu Family would be wiped out if it resisted Mo Yuan.
• Qiangu Dieting summoned Qiangu Qingfeng, staged a clash, gave him the Tianji Wheel, and expelled him from the family.

• Mo Yuan's Soul Guidance Communicator rang, and he saw that Zang Xin was calling.

Mo Yuan brought Xu Xiaoyan and Ling Zichen to the Tang Sect to meet Zang Xin, who congratulated him on his likely election as Parliament Speaker.

• Mo Yuan dismissed the family conflict as a smokescreen and pressed Zang Xin to say whether he had reached a decision.

Mo Yuan persuaded Zang Xin to take him to the Tang Sect’s hidden Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, despite Zang Xin’s doubts about surrendering control of the treasure. Mo Yuan transported Zang Xin and Xu Xiaoyan to Sunset Forest, and they reached the cliff overlooking the well.

• Zang Xin questioned Mo Yuan’s interest in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and Mo Yuan pressed him to consider Cao Dezhi’s wishes.

• Zang Xin led them through a dangerous area of poisonous plants, and they reached a cliff overlooking the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Mo Yuan and Zang Xin entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where Mo Yuan subdued the immortal herbs with the Abyss Flower. After learning how the aromatic silk beauty gained its poison-countering ability, Mo Yuan killed him, leaving the other herbs under his control.

• Mo Yuan pushed through the Seven-Colored Poison Miasma with Xu Xiaoyan and found the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and its immortal herbs.
• Mo Yuan attacked the aromatic silk beauty with the Abyss Flower, and its decay power restrained the six sentient immortal herbs.
• Zang Xin introduced Mo Yuan as the leader of Anti-Entropy, while the aromatic silk beauty demanded to know their purpose.
• The octagonal mysterious ice grass revealed that Sister Youyou had passed her power to Xiangxiang before dying in a heavenly tribulation.
• Mo Yuan ignored the aromatic silk beauty's threats and pierced him with the Abyss Flower, consuming him with decay power.

Mo Yuan killed the Aromatic Silk Beauty, claimed her essence, and forced the immortal herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to submit. He brought Xu Xiaoyan to the Infernal Delicate Apricot to help her Star Wheel Ice Staff mutate with the Star Luo Spirit Pearl, whose power began drawing starlight down from the sky as Mo Yuan noticed a change at the well.

• Mo Yuan used his decay power to destroy the Aromatic Silk Beauty, collected her essence and seed, and helped the seed germinate again.
• Mo Yuan threatened the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the other immortal herbs until they accepted his control of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Mo Yuan told Xu Xiaoyan that he had brought her to complete her martial soul mutation and ordered the Infernal Delicate Apricot to help.
• The Infernal Delicate Apricot introduced Xu Xiaoyan to the hundred-thousand-year Star Luo Spirit Pearl, which could strengthen stellar power and eventually become a soul core.
• Xu Xiaoyan reached for the Star Luo Spirit Pearl, and it enveloped her in starlight as her Star Wheel Ice Staff shone and the sky turned dark.
• Mo Yuan noticed something at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as starlight descended upon Xu Xiaoyan and the Star Luo Spirit Pearl.

Mo Yuan entered the sealed depths beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, subdued the awakened dragon souls, collected samples from the Dragon Kings’ remains, and reinforced their seal. Meanwhile, the Star Luo Spirit Pearl accepted Xu Xiaoyan and transformed her Star Wheel Ice Staff into the Star Staff.

• Mo Yuan discovered that the seal beneath the spring had cracked and entered the space below to investigate the restless dragon souls.
• The ice-blue and scarlet dragon souls attacked Mo Yuan, but he used the Fenghuang Down to lull them to sleep.
• Mo Yuan collected bone and soul samples from both Dragon Kings, then added a long-lasting sealing array before leaving them undisturbed.
• The Star Luo Spirit Pearl recognized Xu Xiaoyan and merged into her as the golden fruit shrank into a stream of light.
• Xu Xiaoyan’s Star Wheel Ice Staff shattered and reformed as the Star Staff, while Zang Xin watched its star attribute emerge.

Xu Xiaoyan absorbed the Star Luo Spirit Pearl and gained powerful command over star power, while Mo Yuan collected several immortal herbs and received the Tang Sect’s Universe Creation Pill formulas. Xu Xiaoyan then began handling Anti-Entropy’s cooperative projects with the Tang Sect, including a gradual merger that remained secret.

• Xu Xiaoyan discovered that the Star Luo Spirit Pearl had transformed her soul power and let her summon star power with ease.
• Xu Xiaoyan thanked Zang Xin for guarding her, and Mo Yuan returned after finishing his work below the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

• Xu Xiaoyan smoothly began managing Anti-Entropy’s cooperative projects with the Tang Sect, while their gradual merger remained concealed.

Mo Yuan watched the Spirit Pagoda raise Soul Spirit and Soul Ascension Platform prices by three hundred percent and orchestrate a campaign blaming Anti-Entropy. He ordered Anti-Entropy branches not to confront protesters, while Qiangu Dongfeng took their growing demonstrations as a sign that his plan was working.

• Amber told Mo Yuan that the Spirit Pagoda had announced a three-hundred-percent price increase and claimed it was negotiating to lower prices.
• Mo Yuan watched Qiangu Dongfeng explain the increase at a press conference and learned that the Spirit Pagoda planned to announce a two-hundred-percent price reduction three days later.

• Qiangu Dongfeng told Qiangu Dieting that Anti-Entropy had not mounted a significant response, while Qiangu Dieting remained silent.

Mo Yuan told Fu Moxin and Chen Xinjie that he had a solution to the Spirit Pagoda’s price hikes. He ordered Xu Xiaoyan to prepare Anti-Entropy’s mass-produced soul spirits and Soul Ascension Platform services for release the next morning at half their previous prices.

• Mo Yuan bypassed Fu Moxin’s busy communicator and learned that Parliament was still assessing the Spirit Pagoda’s price hikes.

• Mo Yuan instructed Xu Xiaoyan to announce the products through Anti-Entropy’s channels the next morning, price them at half the Spirit Pagoda’s former rates, and open temporary sales points outside each branch office.

Anti-Entropy revealed it had reverse-engineered the Spirit Pagoda’s Soul Spirit and Soul Ascension Platform technology, offering both at half the Spirit Pagoda’s former prices and winning public and Federation support. Qiangu Dongfeng learned the news and, after consulting Qiangu Dieting, agreed to smear Anti-Entropy and lure Mo Yuan into a peace talk before striking first.

• Anti-Entropy announced its compatible Soul Spirit and Soul Ascension Platform services at half the Spirit Pagoda’s pre-increase prices, with products going on sale that afternoon.
• Soul Masters in Eastsea City and other cities bought and tested Anti-Entropy’s products, shifting public opinion in its favor.

• Mo Yuan and Fu Moxin discussed the Spirit Pagoda’s peace-talk offer, and Mo Yuan decided to make them wait until they came begging.

• Jin Ling emerged dark gold, surpassed the two-hundred-thousand-year threshold, and demonstrated that she could control nearby metal.
• Jin Ling affectionately returned to Mo Yuan, then spoke for the first time and called him “Master.”

Mo Yuan discovered that Jin Ling could speak and take human form, then began planning to use Golden Dragon King blood essence and Anti-Entropy technology to make her stronger. Na'er joined them and explained that Gu Yue had gone into hibernation after absorbing an Immortal Herb, while Mo Yuan revealed he was close to reaching level seventy.

• Jin Ling spoke to Mo Yuan and transformed into a little girl, prompting him to imagine her connection to the Golden Dragon King and plan an experiment to strengthen her.

• Na'er told Mo Yuan that Gu Yue had gone into hibernation after absorbing the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew to recover her Mental Power.
• Mo Yuan confirmed he had reached level sixty-nine and wondered whether his level-seventy Martial Soul Avatar could transform the Herrscher of Reason into the Herrscher of Truth.

Qiangu Dongfeng arranged a covert strike against Anti-Entropy while sending Qiangu Zhangting to the Star Luo Continent, then tried to restore the Spirit Pagoda’s standing as Anti-Entropy continued to outcompete it.

Qiangu Dongfeng and Qiangu Dieting decided to welcome Mo Yuan’s visit to the Spirit Pagoda, while Mo Yuan prepared to confront them with Di Tian’s help. When Sima Jinchi arrived, Gu Yue recognized his Dragon-Slaying Blade and used the Dragon God’s authority to return its blade soul to the weapon.

Li Mengjie and the other Spirit Pagoda elders learned that Mo Yuan was coming to Shrek City for peace talks, while Leng Yaozhu quietly prepared for his arrival. As Mo Yuan openly headed for the Spirit Pagoda aboard the Chronos, Di Tian received an order to meet him there.

• Li Mengjie brought Xu Shengqun, Han Tianyi, and others to question Leng Yaozhu about Qiangu Dongfeng and the Spirit Pagoda’s response to Anti-Entropy.
• Leng Yaozhu revealed that Mo Yuan planned to arrive for peace talks by noon, and Li Mengjie’s group decided to play matters by ear.
• Leng Yaozhu sent a message and looked at a childhood photograph of herself and Leng Yulai, hoping Mo Yuan’s arrival would help bring her sister home.
