Chapter Summaries

Gu Yunxiao, a transmigrator adopted by the Silver Dragon King, began awakening his martial soul in Star Dou Great Forest. As dark purple power erupted around him, it started condensing into an unfamiliar beast.

• A human infant appeared in an ancient valley amid a dark purple pillar of light, and the Silver Dragon King sensed his unusual power and adopted him.
• Six years later, Gu Yunxiao reflected on his life in Star Dou Great Forest and worried about what martial soul he would awaken.
• Di Tian took Gu Yunxiao to a secluded valley and explained that the awakening might cause a commotion.
• Di Tian activated a six-stone array, awakening a destructive dark purple power within Gu Yunxiao.
• Dark clouds gathered as Gu Yunxiao's power formed a dark purple beast resembling a lizard, astonishing Di Tian.

Gu Yunxiao awakened a mutated Twelve-Headed Chimera carrying the power of the Dragon God and heavenly tribulation, and his power condensed into an unusual water-attribute soul ring. Di Tian recognized Gu Yunxiao’s role in reviving the dragon race, while Mu En sensed the upheaval from afar and sent Xuan Zi to investigate.

• A phantom of a twelve-headed dragon appeared behind Gu Yunxiao, terrifying soul beasts across the continent and alerting human powerhouses.
• At Shrek Academy, Mu En sensed an unknown dragon aura in the Star Dou Great Forest and told Xuan Zi to investigate without venturing deep inside.
• A mysterious woman watched Gu Yunxiao awaken, and Di Tian fell to his knees when Gu Yunxiao’s aura revealed a trace of the Dragon God’s power.

• Gu Yunxiao’s soul power condensed into a blue soul ring, raising him to rank eleven and granting him control over ultimate water.
• Di Tian told Gu Yunxiao that he must help revive both the Soul Beast Clan and the dragon race, then confirmed the strength of his water control.

Di Tian brought Gu Yunxiao to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and arranged for the million-year soul beast to provide him with a second martial soul slot. The Heavenly Tribulation Demon Dragon would remain hidden, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm began sacrificing his origin to Gu Yunxiao.

• Di Tian named Gu Yunxiao’s new martial soul the Heavenly Tribulation Demon Dragon and warned him not to reveal it casually.
• Di Tian took Gu Yunxiao to an altar where Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was sealed and explained the plan to give him an ice martial soul slot.
• Di Tian threatened to kill Sky Dream Ice Silkworm unless he willingly sacrificed himself, promising to preserve a wisp of his consciousness if he complied.
• Sky Dream Ice Silkworm agreed to sacrifice himself, and Di Tian ordered him to offer his origin to Gu Yunxiao before completing the sacrifice.

Gu Yunxiao absorbed the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s origin power and gained an empty ice martial soul slot, then traveled with Di Tian to the Far North to seek an ultimate-ice soul beast. They encountered the Ice Empress, who questioned Di Tian about his arrival and Gu Yunxiao.

• The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm partially sacrificed his origin power to Gu Yunxiao, whose Heavenly Tribulation Demon Dragon and Dragon God powers suppressed the pain of fusion.
• Gu Yunxiao gained an empty ice-attribute martial soul slot, and Di Tian took him to the Far North to find an ultimate-ice soul beast.
• Di Tian explained that an Ice Jade Scorpion from the Ice Empress’s group was their target because the Snow Empress and Ice Empress were unlikely to willingly become Gu Yunxiao’s martial soul.
• The Ice Empress arrived after Di Tian crushed her approaching icy aura with his dark aura, then asked why he had come to the Far North and who Gu Yunxiao was.

Di Tian demanded that the Snow Empress provide an Ice Jade Scorpion with a powerful bloodline to become Gu Yunxiao’s martial soul, but she insisted on learning who he was first. Di Tian finally revealed that the request came from the sovereign of soul beasts, leaving the Snow Empress shocked by Gu Yunxiao’s connection to that ruler.

• The Ice Empress challenged Di Tian’s authority until the Snow Empress arrived in the Far North.
• Di Tian explained that he needed a strong Ultimate Ice soul beast for Gu Yunxiao, and the Ice Empress refused to let him harm her people.
• Di Tian warned the Ice Empress not to insult Gu Yunxiao and explained that the chosen Ice Jade Scorpion could retain a sliver of consciousness.
• The Snow Empress refused to select a scorpion until she learned everything about Gu Yunxiao.
• Di Tian privately told the Snow Empress that the request came from the sovereign of soul beasts, and she looked at Gu Yunxiao in disbelief.

The Snow Empress led Di Tian and Gu Yunxiao to the Ancient Ice God's resting place so Gu Yunxiao could receive her blessing. Gu Yunxiao entered the ice mountain and met the Ice God, who greeted his blunt question about whether she was dead with a slap.

• The Snow Empress proposed that Gu Yunxiao seek the Ice God's Blessing instead of obtaining an Ultimate Ice Martial Soul from a Soul Beast, and Di Tian agreed to take him there.
• The Snow Empress led Di Tian, Gu Yunxiao, and the Ice Empress to an ice mountain in the deepest part of the Far North.
• Gu Yunxiao sensed the Ice God's call, entered the mountain alone, and vanished from the others' sight as the blessing began.
• Gu Yunxiao found himself in a boundless white world and met the Ice God, who struck him after he asked whether she was dead.
• The Ice God slapped Gu Yunxiao again when he muttered that his mouth belonged to him, and Gu Yunxiao silently vowed to get back at her someday.

Gu Yunxiao struck a deal with the Ice God, allowing her remnant soul to stay in his sea of consciousness in exchange for an ultimate ice martial soul and her guidance. After she entered his body and infused power into his vacant martial-soul slot, Gu Yunxiao emerged from the Ice Mountain and revealed an ice bow as his second martial soul.

• The Ice God explained that her remnant soul had little time left and offered Gu Yunxiao an ultimate ice martial soul in exchange for staying inside his body and guiding his cultivation.
• Gu Yunxiao agreed after making the Ice God admit she had been single her entire life.
• The Ice God entered Gu Yunxiao's sea of consciousness, saw the Heavenly Tribulation Demon Dragon, and infused her power into his vacant ice martial-soul slot.
• Gu Yunxiao left the Ice Mountain, reassured Di Tian that he had succeeded, and revealed an ice bow as his second martial soul.

Gu Yunxiao received the Extreme Dust Ice Bow as his second martial soul and returned with Di Tian to the Star Dou Great Forest. During the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's sacrifice, the awakened Ice God redirected its energy to restore the bow, leaving its future strength uncertain.

• The Ice God gave Gu Yunxiao the broken Extreme Dust Ice Bow and fell into a deep slumber.
• Di Tian took Gu Yunxiao away from the Far North, while the Snow Empress and Ice Empress offered to teach him about ice and snow.

• Di Tian brought Gu Yunxiao to the Star Dou Great Forest and ordered the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to sacrifice itself as Gu Yunxiao's first soul ring.
• The Ice God briefly awakened and told Gu Yunxiao to channel the sacrifice's energy and remaining soul power into restoring the Extreme Dust Ice Bow's essence.

Gu Yunxiao gained the Ice Devouring ability from the Ice God and completed the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s million-year sacrifice, but the resulting soul ring rejected the silkworm’s consciousness. Di Tian preserved part of it while erasing its memories, and Gu Yunxiao revealed the four soul skills granted by the ring.

• The Ice God told Gu Yunxiao that the Extreme Dust Ice Bow could devour ice-attribute treasures to speed his cultivation and then went to sleep in his sea of consciousness.
• The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s sacrifice formed a genuine platinum-white million-year soul ring, but it gave Gu Yunxiao no soul-power increase or soul bone.
• The Extreme Dust Ice Bow rejected the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm’s attempt to reside in the ring, so Gu Yunxiao suggested that it inhabit another spiritual soul beast’s sea of consciousness.
• Di Tian threatened the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm into accepting a new host, then tore its consciousness apart and crushed one half to erase its memories.
• Gu Yunxiao told Di Tian that his four soul skills were Ice Soul Domain, Ice Soul Arrow, Ice Soul Mark, and Ice Soul’s Protection, while withholding a detail about the last skill.

After Di Tian explained Ice Soul's Protection and the danger of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's soul fragment, Gu Yunxiao returned to the Lake of Life and learned that Bi Ji would teach his cultivation while Zi JI would train him in combat. Bi Ji and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion met him, and the lion protested his teasing before admitting she had kept him company because she enjoyed playing with him.

• Di Tian told Gu Yunxiao that Ice Soul's Protection could shield his soul and that removing half the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's soul would erase memories unpredictably; Gu Yunxiao claimed his Heavenly Tribulation Demon Dragon Martial Soul had repelled the silkworm.
• Di Tian left to find a host for the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's soul fragment, while Gu Yunxiao returned to the Lake of Life and wondered which Ferocious Beast would teach him.
• Bi Ji arrived with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and Gu Yunxiao teased the lion by calling her a big golden retriever.
• Bi Ji told Gu Yunxiao she would teach him cultivation and theoretical knowledge starting the next day, while Zi JI would teach him practical combat.
• The Three-Eyed Golden Lion accused Zi JI of bullying Gu Yunxiao, then argued with him about whether she had kept him company out of kindness or simply to play.

After becoming the Soul Beast Clan’s young master, Gu Yunxiao adjusted to his new relationship with Di Tian while keeping his playful friendship with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Four years later, Gu Yunxiao demonstrated his strength in the Star Dou Great Forest, while Zi JI’s fascination with him continued to grow.

• Tang San lost contact with his divine sense on the Douluo Continent and worried that events below would no longer follow his plans.
• The God Kings identified the purple energy surrounding the Divine Realm as residual power from the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon and agreed to counteract it with their divine power.

Over four years, Gu Yunxiao reached the peak of Soul Power level 34 while growing closer to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and gathering heavenly treasures from the Ferocious Beasts at dinners. At a new gathering, Yao Ling and the others presented gifts, and Xiong Jun arrived boasting that he had brought something generous.

• Two hours later, the Ferocious Beasts arrived, and Yao Ling gave Gu Yunxiao ten-thousand-year Frostdew Grass that could help him reach level 35.
• The Myriad Demon King questioned Xiong Jun about his offering, and Xiong Jun boasted that he was generous as the other Ferocious Beasts remembered his earlier empty-handed visit and Di Tian’s punishment.
