Huang Tieyi reached the Sunset Forest’s Central Lake and discovered Demonic Qi polluting its bed, prompting him and the Dragon Bamboo Vine to wonder whether it came from a second sealed site. Meanwhile, Bibi Dong and Ling Yuan Douluo warned Emperor Xue Ye of a possible Beast Tide and began planning Heaven Dou City’s defenses.

• Qian Daoliu refused to send Spirit Hall's depleted Angel Army or remain at the lake, and ordered Huang Tieyi to guard it for up to three months.

Huang Tieyi stayed at the Central Lake in the Sunset Forest to guard it and consider his path to godhood while Qian Daoliu’s food sustained him. On the eighth day, a Stone-Skinned Elephant attacked him over access to water, and Huang Tieyi warned it that the lake was tainted by Demonic Qi.

• Qian Daoliu advised Huang Tieyi to choose a path to godhood and left him food before returning to the Sunset Forest.
• The Dragon Bamboo Vine explained that Qian Daoliu could not claim the Angel God’s godhood while its current holder remained, and Huang Tieyi said he intended to create his own godhood.
• Huang Tieyi spent seven days exercising and building a wooden hut by the Central Lake.
• Before dawn on the eighth day, a Stone-Skinned Elephant tore apart Huang Tieyi’s hut and attacked him, but Huang Tieyi beat it until it begged him to stop.
• The Stone-Skinned Elephant said it had attacked because it was angry that it could not get water, and Huang Tieyi warned it that the lake contained Demonic Qi.

Huang Tieyi warned Soul Beasts that the Central Lake’s Demonic Qi could destroy their minds, but the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey ignored him and drank until it became a giant, mindless beast. Huang Tieyi fought the monster, leaving the clash still underway.

• The monkey fell into the lake, absorbed more Demonic Qi, and emerged as a giant ape controlled by the Demonic Qi.
• Huang Tieyi dodged the ape’s sweeping palm with Lingbo Micro-Step and punched its chest, then struck it again when its roar shook Sunset Forest.

Huang Tieyi fought the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey as Demonic Qi pushed it across the hundred-thousand-year barrier, then watched it persuade the Stone-Skinned Elephant and the Tortoiseshell Wild Boar to undergo the same transformation. After the three Soul Beasts left him, they returned with logs, saying they wanted to help rebuild his home because they wanted to live in a house too.

• Huang Tieyi struck the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey, whose screams drew Demonic Qi from the Central Lake and caused a chain to pierce it.
• The Stone-Skinned Elephant and the Tortoiseshell Wild Boar returned, and the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey regained its senses and urged them to enter the Central Lake.

• Huang Tieyi prepared to gather wood to rebuild his wall-less home, but the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey, the Tortoiseshell Wild Boar, and the Stone-Skinned Elephant returned carrying logs because they wanted a house too.

Huang Tieyi built a wooden house near the Central Lake while three Soul Beasts later tried to imitate him. A Beast Tide advanced on Heaven Dou City, where Emperor Xue Ye and the city's Soul Masters prepared to defend the walls, unaware of whether the elder in Sunset Forest could help.

• Huang Tieyi used his soul skills to build a wooden house, but the three Soul Beasts fell asleep instead of learning from him.
• The next day, Huang Tieyi saw the three Soul Beasts recruit others to build houses and chose not to guide them.
• City guards spotted a Beast Tide approaching Heaven Dou City, and the young commander raised the alarm.
• Yang Fanglin and the city's Soul Masters rushed to defend the walls as Emperor Xue Ye arrived with the palace Soul Masters.
• Yang Fanglin told Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing that the five high-level Soul Beasts were not among the approaching beasts and that the Beast Tide likely came from the forest's outskirts.

A massive Beast Tide attacked Heaven Dou City, but Sword Douluo Chen Xin wiped it out. Suspecting the orderly attack concealed a greater threat, Yang Fanglin sent Dugu Bo to find Elder Huang at Central Lake.

• Dugu Bo said Elder Huang had likely killed one of Sunset Forest’s six high-level Soul Beasts, while Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing discussed how to defend against the approaching Beast Tide.
• Yang Fanglin sent Bai Yanran to seek support from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and Dugu Bo used his poison to kill Soul Beasts at the front of the tide.
• The Soul Beasts coordinated their movements to counter the defenders’ attacks, and Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing suspected that a hidden high-level Soul Beast was directing them.
• Sword Douluo Chen Xin arrived and slaughtered the Beast Tide with Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect before taking several carcasses with Emperor Xue Ye’s permission.
• Yang Fanglin asked Dugu Bo to find Elder Huang at Central Lake and report the strange Beast Tide, and Dugu Bo agreed that something more serious might be coming.

Huang Tieyi fought the Golden-Crowned Falcon at Central Lake and forced her to swear loyalty as his mount. Their new bond left the defeated falcon furious as Huang Tieyi began asserting his authority.

• Huang Tieyi used their bond to make the falcon suffer, and she angrily accused him of bullying an eagle.

Huang Tieyi cleansed the Golden-Crowned Falcon of Demonic Qi, and it survived its Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast tribulation by redirecting lightning into the Central Lake. After Dugu Bo reported a Beast Tide against Heaven Dou City, the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey admitted that he, the Stone-Skinned Elephant, and the Tortoiseshell Wild Boar had organized it and planned to corrupt the city with Demonic Qi.

• Huang Tieyi used sacred power to remove the Demonic Qi from the Golden-Crowned Falcon, triggering its Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast tribulation.

• The Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey admitted that the three had used house-building as a cover to plan the Beast Tide and spread Demonic Qi through Heaven Dou City.

Huang Tieyi confronted the Soul Beasts behind the Beast Tide and argued that the Gods had shaped the cultivation system to keep Soul Beasts from producing another Beast God. He realized the Central Lake’s Demonic Qi was a deliberate measure that coexisted with the Soul Beasts, but its hidden scheme was already underway when the chapter ended.

• Huang Tieyi warned the Short-Tailed Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey, the Stone-Skinned Elephant, and the Tortoiseshell Wild Boar that their Beast Tide could provoke a war that would destroy the Soul Beasts.
• Huang Tieyi suggested the Gods had imposed the Soul Ring cultivation system to prevent Soul Beasts from producing another Beast God, and Dugu Bo questioned whether the theory was true.
• Huang Tieyi explained that the Demonic Qi had not fully corrupted the Soul Beasts and proposed that it was a measure left behind by a God.
• The Demonic Qi formed a face in the Central Lake and admitted Huang Tieyi had discovered the truth, then transformed the three Soul Beasts.
• The Golden-Crowned Falcon killed the three Soul Beasts and shredded their corpses, while the Demonic Qi dismissed them as disposable puppets.
• Huang Tieyi summoned his Dragon-Patterned Golden Sacred Body Martial Soul and eight Soul Rings, but the Demonic Qi claimed its goal was achieved and slaughter was about to begin.

Huang Tieyi used the Angel Holy Sword to steadily erode the Demonic Qi face in Central Lake, while the Golden-Crowned Falcon killed the Azure-Winged Snake and Dugu Bo began absorbing its Soul Ring. The Demonic Qi face could neither attack nor escape, but it believed it only had to outlast Huang Tieyi’s Soul Power as their standoff continued.

• Huang Tieyi revealed that the Great Enshrined had left him the Angel Holy Sword and repeatedly struck the Demonic Qi face with holy Sword Qi.
• The Demonic Qi face summoned the Azure-Winged Snake, but the Golden-Crowned Falcon seized it and carried it into the sky.
• After thirty-six slashes, Huang Tieyi concluded that the Demonic Qi was a powerless fragment of divine thought and drove the giant Angel Holy Sword into Central Lake to wear it down.
• Huang Tieyi told Dugu Bo to wait for the Azure-Winged Snake to die so he could absorb its Soul Ring, and Dugu Bo agreed.
• An hour later, the Golden-Crowned Falcon delivered the snake’s corpse to Dugu Bo, who began absorbing its black Soul Ring as the Demonic Qi face had shrunk by about one-tenth.
• Huang Tieyi ate while continuing to feed Soul Power into the sword, and the Demonic Qi face believed it could outlast him until his reserves ran low.

Yang Fanglin suspected the Beast Tide had brought Demonic Qi into Heaven Dou City and brought Ye Qingti to Spirit Hall for safety. Meanwhile, Huang Tieyi uncovered the Demonic Qi’s plan to corrupt the city and revealed an alarming indifference to human life, leaving the entity questioning who he was.

• Emperor Xue Ye ordered the Soul Beast carcasses distributed among Heaven Dou City’s people, while Yang Fanglin forbade Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters from eating the meat.
• Yang Fanglin suspected the Beast Tide was a deliberate attempt to spread Demonic Qi and took Ye Qingti to Spirit Hall as a precaution.
• Ye Qingti warned the Ye Family not to eat the Soul Beast meat and used her Great Healing Art before agreeing to accompany Yang Fanglin.
• Huang Tieyi taunted the Demonic Qi face and deduced that its plan was to corrupt the city’s people and provoke turmoil in the Heaven Dou Empire.
• The Demonic Qi face confirmed that its thoughts and will could travel through the Demonic Qi, and Huang Tieyi said the resulting deaths would stabilize the continent’s life force.
• The Demonic Qi face asked Huang Tieyi who he was after realizing he seemed more indifferent to life than the entity itself.

Huang Tieyi gave Dugu Bo a Crystal Ball filled with holy Soul Power to purify the Demonic Qi spreading through Heaven Dou City. After Dugu Bo cleansed the city, he ordered his family and Ye Qingti to prepare to leave, while the danger behind the Beast Tide remained unresolved.

• Huang Tieyi told Dugu Bo that the Crystal Ball could purify Demonic Qi and sent him to Heaven Dou City with it.
• Dugu Bo found the city engulfed in violence, while Ye Qingti and Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters treated people near Spirit Hall.
• Dugu Bo activated the Crystal Ball and purified residents as he walked through the city, while Yang Fanglin told Ye Qingti to rest.
• After three hours, the Crystal Ball’s power ran out, and Dugu Bo ordered Dugu Sheng and Dugu Feng to move to Spirit City.
• Dugu Bo told Ye Qingti to prepare to take the Ye Family out of Heaven Dou City.

Dugu Bo resigned as Heaven Dou's Imperial Preceptor and prepared to move his family and the Ye Family to Spirit City, while Huang Tieyi confronted the Demonic Qi face in Sunset Forest. The face's connection to corrupted Soul Beasts became clear, and Huang ordered the Golden-Crowned Falcon to kill them as he suspected the face was hiding a larger plan.

• Emperor Xue Ye questioned Dugu Bo's departure, and Dugu Bo explained that he would settle in Spirit City with his family and the Ye Family.
• Huang Tieyi thanked Dugu Bo for helping save Heaven Dou City and warned him to guard against an ambush on the journey.
• Huang Tieyi accused the Demonic Qi face of appearing to cover for another plot, and the face laughed as if it had seen through his act.
• Huang Tieyi struck the Demonic Qi face with the Angel Holy Sword's sacred energy, making it scream and causing black fumes to rise from Soul Beasts across the forest.
• Huang Tieyi commanded the Golden-Crowned Falcon to kill every screaming Soul Beast emitting black fumes, then suspected the face had kept a backup plan.

Huang Tieyi ordered Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters to kill anyone who screamed and emitted black fumes, while he remained at Sunset Forest’s Central Lake to exhaust the Demonic Qi. The Golden-Crowned Falcon returned from Heaven Dou City as the Demonic Qi’s cries weakened, but Huang Tieyi refused to leave before seeing it destroyed.

• Huang Tieyi discussed the thinking Demonic Qi with the Martial Soul Dragon Bamboo Vine and said he would stay until it was mostly spent or Qian Daoliu arrived to seal the Central Lake.
• Huang Tieyi sent the Golden-Crowned Falcon to Heaven Dou City to deliver his order to kill people screaming and giving off black fumes.
• The Golden-Crowned Falcon announced the order over Heaven Dou City, and Yang Fanglin directed Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters to search the streets and kill those who matched the description.
• Spirit Hall’s Soul Masters reported finding few people still screaming, and Yang Fanglin urged them to continue searching without doubting Elder Huang’s reasons.
• The Golden-Crowned Falcon returned to the Central Lake, where Huang Tieyi said the Demonic Qi was near its crucial moment and poured more holy Soul Power into the Angel Holy Sword.

Qian Daoliu arrived at Sunset Forest and ordered Huang Tieyi to stop using the Angel Holy Sword to suppress the Demonic Qi, which left Huang Tieyi exhausted and unable to continue guarding it. Mo Daolin condemned Qian Daoliu and the Angel God for shifting the danger onto Huang Tieyi, then attacked the group as Qian Daoliu struggled to defend himself.

• Qian Daoliu received a divine message from the Angel God about the Angel Holy Sword and hurried to Sunset Forest with Ling Yuan Douluo and Golden Crocodile Douluo.
• Qian Daoliu found Huang Tieyi meditating atop the Angel Holy Sword and learned that the Demonic Qi had contaminated Soul Beasts and sent a Beast Tide toward Heaven Dou City.
• Qian Daoliu explained that the Demonic Qi came from another god and ordered Huang Tieyi to pull out the sword before it was further eroded.
• Huang Tieyi withdrew the Angel Holy Sword, handed it to Qian Daoliu, and left to rest despite Qian Daoliu asking him to stay.
• Mo Daolin accused the Angel God and Qian Daoliu of making Huang Tieyi bear their risks, then attacked with his Arhat Heaven-Turning Seal as Qian Daoliu tried to counter with the Angel Holy Sword.

Mo Daolin defeated Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo, then pursued them until Huang Tieyi stopped him and revealed the strength-focused path behind his power. Mo Daolin left after realizing his mistake, and Huang Tieyi learned that the broken Angel Holy Sword could be thrown into Central Lake to contain the Demonic Qi.

• Mo Daolin shattered the Angel Holy Sword, knocked Qian Daoliu unconscious, and sent Golden Crocodile Douluo flying before Ling Yuan Douluo fled with them.
• Ling Yuan Douluo landed on the Golden-Crowned Falcon, where she warned Huang Tieyi that Mo Daolin was coming and then fainted.
• Huang Tieyi chose to confront Mo Daolin, and his Maul struck Mo Daolin down when he tried to catch it with one hand.
• Huang Tieyi explained that he had chosen Soul Beasts for strength, prompting Mo Daolin to recognize why he had failed to cross a threshold and leave the group unharmed.
• Qian Daoliu told Huang Tieyi to take the broken Angel Holy Sword to Central Lake, where its waters could stop the Demonic Qi from corrupting Soul Beasts.

Huang Tieyi took the injured Qian Daoliu and the others back to Sunset Forest, where he retrieved the broken Angel Holy Sword and explained his new tiger-like features. In Spirit City, Qian Xunji struggled to choose marriage candidates and selected women tied to several major powers, then grew suspicious when Azure Wolf Douluo said Ning Wanshu was already there.

• Huang Tieyi argued with Qian Daoliu over the destruction of the Angel Holy Sword before Ling Yuan Douluo urged him to take them away.
• Huang Tieyi returned to Central Lake, collected the broken pieces of the Angel Holy Sword, and told Qian Daoliu they would return after he recovered.

• Qian Xunji reviewed marriage portraits and chose Xue Nuannuan, Diana, Zhu Lingling, Tang Yuehua, and Liu Erlong as candidates tied to different powers.
• Azure Wolf Douluo told Qian Xunji that Ning Wanshu of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was in Spirit City, and Qian Xunji questioned how she had arrived there.

Qian Xunji summoned Tang Yuehua, Ning Shuwan, and Liu Erlong after hearing they were close to Huang Tieyi, then offered marriage documents to all three. Liu Erlong accepted the proposal in principle and told Yu Yuanchen, but asked him not to formally welcome her into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect so Qian Xunji would not have to choose someone else.

• Azure Wolf Douluo explained that Tang Yuehua, Liu Erlong, and Ning Shuwan had ties to Huang Tieyi, so Qian Xunji summoned them to clarify their relationships with him.
• Tang Yuehua, Ning Shuwan, and Liu Erlong each said they had no romantic relationship with Huang Tieyi, and Qian Xunji presented each woman with a marriage document.
• Liu Erlong asked whether she could keep teaching, Ning Shuwan asked to retain her career, and Tang Yuehua agreed to follow her family's wishes before the three left to consult their families.
• Liu Erlong wondered aloud what number wife she would be, then met Yu Yuanchen and told him Qian Xunji wanted to marry her.
• Yu Yuanchen was delighted by Liu Erlong's marriage document, but Liu Erlong rejected the elders' suggestion to formally welcome her into the sect, saying it could force Qian Xunji to choose someone else.

Huang Tieyi named the Golden-Crowned Falcon Eagle Skystrike, whose excitement disrupted the three recovering Limit Douluo. When a Holy Spirit Cult protector named Eagle Skystrike ambushed them, the Falcon challenged him and battered his Bone Eagle Martial Soul, leaving him enraged and humiliated.

• Yu Yuanchen and Liu Erlong argued over their relationship with Spirit Hall before Liu Erlong returned to school.

Huang Tieyi and the Golden-Crowned Falcon fought Eagle Skystrike, breaking his Bone Eagle and destroying his White Bone Meteor Spear with Huang Tieyi’s Tathagata Palm. Eagle Skystrike was wounded but turned to madness, while Huang Tieyi blamed the Evil Soul Masters for preventing him from becoming a Titled Douluo.

• Huang Tieyi used the Golden-Crowned Falcon’s speed to attack Eagle Skystrike, but the falcon’s chaotic flying left it dizzy and made Eagle Skystrike block Huang Tieyi’s Maul with his White Bone Shield.
• Huang Tieyi smashed through Eagle Skystrike’s Bone Eagle, causing backlash that made Eagle Skystrike spit blood.

Huang Tieyi destroyed the transformed warriors, but Eagle Skystrike fled, leaving Huang Tieyi and the Golden-Crowned Falcon to discuss whose lives mattered to them.

• Eagle Skystrike used his Bone Eagle Dirge to shatter Dugu Feng and the others’ souls, then sealed them in blood cocoons with his Bone Knight Transformation.
• Ling Yuan Douluo carried Dugu Bo, Dugu Sheng, Ye Qingti, Qian Daoliu, and Golden Crocodile Douluo away as the cocoons opened and transformed their captives into Bone Skeletons or Human-Martial Soul Fusions.
• Eagle Skystrike explained that the Holy Spirit Cult considered Huang Tieyi its greatest threat because his unusual strength could not be measured by ordinary standards, and he invited Huang Tieyi to join the cult.
• Huang Tieyi refused the invitation and used a giant flaming hand to destroy the Bone Warriors created by Eagle Skystrike’s Sixth Soul Skill.
• Eagle Skystrike transformed into his Bone Eagle Martial Soul Avatar and fled, while Huang Tieyi refused to pursue him or concern himself with the people who had disregarded his safety.
• Huang Tieyi told the Golden-Crowned Falcon that he would put his own survival first and ordered it to remain his mount.

Ling Yuan Douluo and the others rested after fleeing, but Eagle Skystrike found them and struck Qian Daoliu down. Huang Tieyi arrived and disrupted Eagle Skystrike’s attacks, then launched Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect, whose effect remained unresolved.

• Ling Yuan Douluo collapsed from exhaustion, while Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo, Dugu Bo, and Dugu Sheng worried about Huang Tieyi and mourned Dugu Feng.
