Chapter Summaries

After Lu Xuan’s breakthrough drew the Divine Realm’s attention, four God Kings chose him and Ye Lingling as potential successors and sent them their inheritances. Three inheritances became trapped in Lu Xuan’s sea of consciousness, where he discovered the intruders and confronted them.

• The Asura God ignored Lu Xuan’s celestial phenomenon and checked that Tang San was thriving in the lower realm.

• The three inheritances aimed at Lu Xuan struck an indestructible barrier in his sea of consciousness and became trapped there.
• Lu Xuan sensed the intruders, summoned the Black Jade Divine Flute, and demanded to know who they were and why they had entered his sea of consciousness.

Lu Xuan negotiated with the three God Kings for their divine inheritances and asked them to provide opportunities for his loved ones as well. The God of Evil and God of Destruction began their trials, but their divinities fused and created a new inheritance for Lu Xuan.

• Lu Xuan asked the God Kings to find divine positions for his other loved ones, and the Godess of Kindness agreed to assess them during his inheritance trials.
• The God of Evil and the God of Destruction branded their inheritance marks into Lu Xuan's sea of consciousness, but their divinities fused into Evil and God of Destruction and began the first trial.

After an unknown power forced the God Kings to leave their inheritances for Lu Xuan’s companions, Lu Xuan awoke at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with greatly enhanced Martial Souls and Soul Rings. He revealed his new Divine Flute Domain to Ye Renxin, who agreed to help him find a suitable Soul Beast for his next Soul Ring.

• Lu Xuan awoke and told Ye Renxin that the pill had strengthened both his Twin Martial Souls, allowing him to absorb a fifth or even sixth Soul Ring.

• Ye Renxin agreed to accompany Lu Xuan and Dugu Bo to hunt for a suitable Soul Beast.
• Lu Xuan activated his new Divine Flute Domain, which doubled the range of his Soul Skills, halved their Soul Power consumption, and doubled his Soul Power recovery speed.

Lu Xuan revealed that he, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan had received divine inheritances, and Ye Renxin warned them to keep the secret until they became gods. After returning to Heaven Dou City, they learned Dugu Xin had reached Level 90, prompting Lu Xuan to propose hunting for Soul Rings together.

• Lu Xuan told Ye Renxin that he had received inheritances from the God of Evil and the God of Destruction, while Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan had received inheritances from the God of Life and the Goddess of Kindness.

• Dugu Bo recognized Bibi Dong as a Quasi-Titled Douluo and suggested they leave, but Lu Xuan urged him to help her.
• Dugu Bo teased Lu Xuan for wanting to intervene because he had taken a fancy to Bibi Dong.

Lu Xuan proposed cooperating with Bibi Dong against the Hundred-Thousand-Year Death Spider Emperor so Dugu Yan could claim its Soul Bones. After Dugu Bo’s hidden Titled Douluo pressure and Lu Xuan’s claim to be from Sea God Island forced Bibi Dong to reconsider, she accepted the deal and Lu Xuan began strengthening her with his flute.

• Lu Xuan reminded Dugu Bo that the Death Spider Emperor’s poison-attribute Soul Bones would suit Dugu Yan, persuading him to risk confronting Bibi Dong.
• Lu Xuan disguised himself and entered the battle while Dugu Bo hid among the trees, ready to reveal his Titled Douluo pressure.

Lu Xuan and Dugu Bo continued toward their hunting grounds and found a fifty-thousand-year Ginseng King suited for Ye Lingling.

• Lu Xuan boosted Bibi Dong’s attributes, and she used her Soul Skills to fight the Death Spider Emperor while Dugu Bo kept it from fleeing.
• After half an hour, Bibi Dong killed the Death Spider Emperor and began absorbing its crimson Soul Ring, too weakened to claim its Soul Bone.
• Lu Xuan secretly signaled Dugu Bo, who stored the corpse before leaving with Lu Xuan; Bibi Dong vowed revenge and named Sea God Island.
• Lu Xuan and Dugu Bo resumed their journey toward the Lake of Life, passing over several Soul Beasts that did not meet their requirements.
• Lu Xuan sensed a plant-type Soul Beast with abundant vitality, and he and Dugu Bo found a fifty-thousand-year Ginseng King suitable for Ye Lingling.

• Lu Xuan tried to persuade the Ginseng King to become Ye Lingling's soul ring, but it refused and vowed not to submit.
• Lu Xuan used his spiritual skills to battle the Ginseng King's defenses for an hour before taking control of it.
• Lu Xuan had the controlled Ginseng King begin its sacrifice for Ye Lingling, whose absorption started as its life essence flowed into her.
• Dugu Bo processed the Death Spider Emperor's corpse and found a hundred-thousand-year Right Arm Bone.

Dugu Bo extracted two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones from the Death Spider Emperor, and Lu Xuan’s group fought off Soul Beasts drawn to its corpse. Ye Lingling completed her Soul Ring absorption at level forty-four, while Lu Xuan prepared to raise a Soul Devouring Demon Spider to eighty thousand years for his fifth Soul Ring.

• Dugu Bo found a second arm bone in the Death Spider Emperor’s corpse, giving Dugu Yan a pair of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones, and decided not to have her absorb them in the dangerous forest.
• Soul Beasts approached the clearing, including a sixty-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider and a Soul Devouring Demon Spider over seventy thousand years old.
• Lu Xuan released Zhao Yan and Dugu Xin from his Spiritual Space, then supported them with the Black Jade Divine Flute as they and Dugu Bo slaughtered or drove off the attacking Soul Beasts.
• Dugu Bo brought Lu Xuan the injured Soul Devouring Demon Spider, and Lu Xuan ordered the Man Faced Demon Spider fed to it until it reached eighty thousand years for his fifth Soul Ring.
• Ye Lingling finished absorbing the Ginseng King's Soul Ring and reached level forty-four; Lu Xuan told her Dugu Yan could soon reach level fifty after absorbing her new Soul Ring and Soul Bones.

Lu Xuan absorbed an eighty-thousand-year Soul Ring as his fifth and reached level sixty, becoming a Quasi-Soul Emperor. After congratulating him, Dugu Bo asked whether he would seek his sixth Soul Ring, and Lu Xuan refused.

• Ye Lingling declined to absorb the fifty-thousand-year Soul Bone, and Ye Renxin also passed on a twenty-thousand-year Soul Bone.
• Lu Xuan killed the cultivated Soul Devouring Demon Spider and began absorbing its eighty-thousand-year Soul Ring while Dugu Bo retrieved its left arm Soul Bone.

• Lu Xuan completed his fifth Soul Ring, revealing five black Soul Rings and announcing that he had reached level sixty.
• Dugu Bo asked Lu Xuan whether he would continue searching for his sixth Soul Ring, and Lu Xuan said no.

After choosing a rare Hundred Thousand Year Mirror Shadow Beast for his sixth Soul Ring, Lu Xuan led his companions to the Lake of Life to seek the Sky Azure Bull Python. They found the lake frozen by the Silver Dragon King, blocking their way beneath the surface, and decided to search elsewhere.

• Lu Xuan told Dugu Bo he had chosen a Hundred Thousand Year Mirror Shadow Beast for his sixth Soul Ring and hoped to find one in the Frozen Forest or Far North.
• After recovering from absorbing his fifth Soul Ring, Lu Xuan changed into clean clothes and continued with his companions toward the Lake of Life.
• Lu Xuan and his companions reached the lake but found neither the Sky Azure Bull Python nor the Titan Giant Ape, so Zhao Yan went to scout the surrounding forest.
• Lu Xuan searched the lake and considered the powerful Ferocious Beasts hidden beneath it, knowing he would need to grow stronger before challenging them.
• Ye Renxin noticed the temperature falling, and Dugu Bo traced the cold to the Lake of Life, which had frozen over.
• Lu Xuan suspected the Silver Dragon King had frozen the lake to keep them from entering, then suggested that the group search elsewhere for a target.

The Silver Dragon King kept the Lake of Life sealed to hide from the Divine Realm and planned to attack it when four God Kings passed on their inheritances. Meanwhile, Lu Xuan’s group found a suitable Soul Beast for Dugu Yan, and its sacrifice began.

• Ye Renxin persuaded Dugu Bo to leave the lake area with Lu Xuan’s group, while keeping a moderate distance from Zhao Yan.
• The Silver Dragon King forbade Di Tian from attacking the humans and planned to invade the Divine Realm after the four God Kings weakened while passing on their inheritances.
• Di Tian warned the restless Three-Eyed Golden Lion that she could become a human’s Soul Ring, and she immediately quieted down.
• Lu Xuan’s group drove away a young Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear after secretly marking it with an Azure Jade Bird Gold Soul Coin, and Dugu Bo collected seven thousand-year poison-attribute Soul Beasts for fertilizer.
• The group found a forty-five-thousand-year Jade Phosphorus Lizard suited to Dugu Yan, and Lu Xuan suppressed its resistance so it could begin its sacrifice to her.

Lu Xuan left Dugu Bo’s group during Dugu Yan’s Soul Ring assimilation and found Zhao Yan battling two hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbits, including Ah Rou in human form. Lu Xuan joined the fight and rejected Ah Rou’s offer to help them find a Soul Ring, demanding both of theirs.

• Dugu Bo surrounded the group with Jade Phosphor Poison Qi as nearby Soul Beasts gathered around Dugu Yan’s sacrifice.
• Lu Xuan wondered where the Sky Azure Bull Python had gone and considered whether its group had clashed with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the Thousand Jun Ant brothers.
• After recognizing Zhao Yan’s Soul Bone Skill in the distance, Lu Xuan used Azure Jade Spatial Escape to reach him and found him fighting a hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit while Ah Rou supported it.
• Lu Xuan used the Black Jade Divine Flute to empower Zhao Yan, then attacked Ah Rou after she offered to help them find a suitable Soul Ring.
• Ah Rou asked what Lu Xuan wanted, and he demanded the Soul Rings of both Soft Bone Rabbits.

Lu Xuan halted Zhao Yan’s attack on the Soft Bone Rabbits and swore by the Sea God that they would be spared if they helped him obtain two soul rings. After Ah Rou summoned the Rabbit Clan to locate the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, Lu Xuan returned to his companions and explained his plan to hunt it for his second martial spirit.

• Lu Xuan negotiated with Ah Rou, then had Zhao Yan stop fighting the hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit.
• Lu Xuan swore by the Sea God to leave the rabbits alone if they helped him find two soul rings, and Ah Rou agreed to search for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
• Ah Rou called on the Rabbit Clan to search Star Dou Forest for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the other powerful soul beasts.
• Lu Xuan used Azure Jade Spatial Escape to return to Ye Renxin, Dugu Bo, Dugu Xin, and Dugu Yan, who was absorbing her soul ring.
• Lu Xuan explained that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger would suit his second martial spirit and that his body could not withstand absorbing two hundred-thousand-year soul rings in succession.

• Lu Xuan finalized a plan for himself to absorb the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger’s Soul Ring and Dugu Bo to take down the Sky Azure Bull Python.

• The Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python arrived, saw Xiao Wu’s injuries, and the Titan Giant Ape demanded to know who had hurt her.
• Ah Rou told the two Soul Beasts that Lu Xuan and Zhao Yan had injured Xiao Wu, then secretly urged them to help kill the tiger before ambushing Lu Xuan and Zhao Yan.

Lu Xuan and Zhao Yan joined Ah Rou and the two great Soul Beasts to attack the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, while both sides concealed their full strength. The battle began, and Lu Xuan’s claims about Zhao Yan’s exhausted abilities prompted Ah Rou to order Da Ming to unleash his domain.

• Ah Rou, the Sky Azure Bull Python, and the Titan Giant Ape secretly planned to kill Lu Xuan and Zhao Yan after using them against the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, but Lu Xuan overheard them.
• Ah Rou sent Xiao Wu to hide, then led Lu Xuan and Zhao Yan to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which was eating a Lightning Rabbit.

• Lu Xuan told Ah Rou that Zhao Yan could not use his Martial Soul Avatar because it was on cooldown after killing the Death Spider Emperor, and showed her a Soul Bone as evidence.
• Ah Rou remained wary and ordered Da Ming to activate his domain.

• The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger wounded the Titan Giant Ape with [Dark Demon Evil Thunder], but the Sky Azure Bull Python kept it occupied in a stalemate.
• Lu Xuan brought Ah Rou and Zhao Yan to the battlefield, where Zhao Yan supported the fight, Ah Rou joined in, and Lu Xuan used [Rouge Silent Dragon Roar] to dissolve the tiger's [Light Blades].
• The Titan Giant Ape struck the tiger before it could launch another attack, and the tiger tried to escape by charging into Zhao Yan, who blocked most of the impact with a Soul Bone Skill.
• Ah Rou used [Charm] to briefly restrain the tiger, then became too dazed to continue fighting; Lu Xuan recognized that she had also used the moment to withdraw from the main battle.
• The Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python attacked the tiger together, prompting it to unleash [Life and Death Arena].
• Lu Xuan seized Ah Rou and used [Azure Jade Spatial Escape] to throw her into the black hole, telling her to interrupt the move.

After the Sky Azure Bull Python died, he stopped the Titan Giant Ape from self-destructing by threatening Xiao Wu, then offered to spare her if it surrendered its Soul Ring and Soul Bone; the Titan Giant Ape demanded a binding oath.

• Lu Xuan pushed Ah Rou into the Life and Death Arena, then summoned Dugu Bo, Dugu Xin, and Ye Renxin to join the battle against the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape.
