Chapter Summaries

Ji Feng spotted a quest marker above a herb seller and realized she was Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor, so he approached hoping to earn Primogems. After her Soul Emperor aura frightened him, he tried to buy her herbs, and the chapter ended with Ah Yin lowering her price after admitting she had overcharged him because she thought he was only trying to chat her up.

• Ji Feng went outside and saw a yellow exclamation mark floating above a blue-haired herb seller, whom he recognized as Ah Yin.
• Ji Feng approached Ah Yin, hoping to trigger a quest, but she sensed his gaze and revealed her six soul rings and Soul Emperor pressure.
• Ji Feng abandoned his provocative opening and offered to buy all of Ah Yin’s herbs.
• Ah Yin asked for sixty Gold Soul Coins, and Ji Feng protested that the herbs were worth far less.
• Ah Yin agreed to sell the herbs for twelve Gold Soul Coins, explaining that she had quoted more because she thought Ji Feng only wanted to chat her up.

Ji Feng summoned Sangonomiya Kokomi with the Primogems he earned by helping Ah Yin, but she challenged his assumptions about summoned characters obeying him. Kokomi warned him that summoning the Raiden Shogun might have endangered him, then asked Ji Feng to explain his situation.

• Ji Feng used sixty Primogems to summon a five-star character and brought Sangonomiya Kokomi into his room.
• Ji Feng complained that Kokomi was not the Raiden Shogun, and Kokomi teased him about the Shogun’s rule and strength.
• Kokomi revealed that summoned characters could refuse to obey and warned that the Raiden Shogun might have eliminated Ji Feng or returned to the Plane of Euthymia.
• Kokomi criticized the Shogun for causing suffering and war, then asked Ji Feng to explain where they were and what was happening.
• Kokomi guessed that Ji Feng was not from this world.

Sangonomiya Kokomi discovered that she and Ji Feng could share memories because she was an incarnation of his soul, but the exchange blurred their personalities and made them feel unusually close. She briefly pretended to steal Ji Feng’s savings and flee before revealing she had only played a prank on him.

• Sangonomiya Kokomi questioned whether Ji Feng came from another world, then explained their connection as incarnations of the same soul.
• Ji Feng drew their connection closer and flooded Kokomi with his memories, causing her to struggle against the influence on her personality.
• After the exchange, Kokomi felt at ease in Ji Feng’s embrace, while Ji Feng celebrated their closeness and teased her.
• Kokomi warned Ji Feng that reason could still overcome their shared emotions, then took his savings and ran out the door.
• Ji Feng failed to catch Kokomi and returned home, where he found her calmly reading and admitting she had only pretended to run away.

Ji Feng complained that his summoned Sangonomiya Kokomi could not be controlled, but she offered him advice on how to earn future characters’ trust without using memory resonance. Kokomi refused to serve him as his strategist because he wanted to build a harem.

• Ji Feng lamented his zero innate soul power and recounted how Kokomi had taken his money and pretended to run away after receiving his memories.
• Kokomi argued that her resistance army had used a strategy to infiltrate Tenshukaku, then explained that summoned characters could sense Ji Feng was special.
• Kokomi advised Ji Feng to stop using memory resonance and to invent plausible connections with characters he summoned.
• Ji Feng praised Kokomi, hugged her stocking-clad leg, and begged her to help him.
• Kokomi said she would not serve a man whose main goal was collecting beautiful women.

Ji Feng persuaded Kokomi to help him build a harem, on the condition that he never forced anyone and that she would not join it. While testing his Martial Soul’s recall ability, he discovered he had transformed into Kokomi after summoning her back.

• Ji Feng compared his harmless harem ambitions to the Raiden Shogun’s rule, persuading Kokomi that helping him was acceptable.
• Kokomi agreed to assist Ji Feng but refused to join his harem and insisted that every woman in it be willing and happy.
• Kokomi told Ji Feng to test his Genshin Impact Martial Soul by trying to recall her.
• Ji Feng’s first attempt failed, but focusing on Kokomi while looking at her caused her to vanish into his Martial Soul.
• Ji Feng realized that he had taken Kokomi’s form and panicked at his transformation.

Ji Feng discovered that he had reincarnated as Sangonomiya Kokomi and tested her body, abilities, and his Genshin Impact Martial Soul. He learned he could control multiple bodies and manage Kokomi’s soul, but left Aether’s simultaneous control aside because it confused him.

• Ji Feng lamented that he had become Sangonomiya Kokomi instead of the Raiden Shogun, then realized Kokomi’s bodily habits, muscle memory, and skills had transferred to him.
• Ji Feng tested Kokomi’s water abilities and joked with his reflection, slipping between Kokomi’s gentle manner and his own teasing persona.
• Ji Feng added Aether to his lineup and manifested a second body, but struggled to control both bodies at once and withdrew Aether.
• Ji Feng examined the Martial Soul interface and learned that Kokomi’s soul could be dormant, assist him, or be summoned, and that he could recall a summoned character when he could see them.

Ji Feng answered a late-night visitor while disguised as Kokomi and met Bibi Dong, who caught her as she fell. He decided to use Kokomi’s tears to soften Bibi Dong, leaving her apologizing and trying to comfort the crying girl.

• Ji Feng, still in Kokomi’s form after bathing, answered urgent knocking at his door.
• A black-robed stranger rushed forward and caught Kokomi when she slipped and fell.
• The stranger revealed herself as Bibi Dong, who questioned Kokomi about the state of her home.
• Ji Feng suspected Bibi Dong had come on her own and considered using the encounter to get close to her.
• When Bibi Dong demanded an answer, Ji Feng made Kokomi cry, prompting Bibi Dong to apologize and comfort her.

Kokomi pretended that her brother had died, making Bibi Dong pity her instead of pursuing him over his obscene novel. After learning Bibi Dong was the novel’s heroine, Kokomi let the Holy Maiden take her in as a maid, while secretly enjoying how easily she had fooled her.

• Kokomi claimed her brother had been killed by a carriage and that she had been left alone, so Bibi Dong comforted her and decided to forgive the dead author.
• Bibi Dong asked whether Kokomi knew what her brother had written, then revealed that she was the heroine of his novel.
• Kokomi mistakenly guessed that Bibi Dong was the wife of the Clear Sky Sect’s sect master or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s little princess.
• Kokomi recognized the novel as her brother’s first book, and Bibi Dong learned that he had written other dirty books as well.
• Bibi Dong ordered Kokomi to become her maid for life, intending to protect her from people taking her inheritance.
• Kokomi secretly thought that the sweet, naive Bibi Dong was easier to fool than she had expected.

Ji Feng discovered that Bibi Dong’s wish had been fulfilled and gained sixty Primogems before she left. He then asked Kokomi to perform a blessing dance for his next Wish Banner pull, and her solemn dance left him unexpectedly emotional.

• Bibi Dong’s yellow exclamation mark disappeared, and Kokomi saw that she had received sixty Primogems.
• Bibi Dong left after mistaking Ji Feng’s luxurious home for a poor household.
• Ji Feng returned to his own body, and Kokomi realized he had used hers to bathe her.
• Ji Feng persuaded Kokomi to perform a Watatsumi Island blessing dance for his wish to obtain a god.
• Kokomi danced beneath the moon, and Ji Feng told her not to repeat the sorrowful dance because it made him cry.

Ji Feng summoned Nahida and possessed her body, then Kokomi explained that Nahida’s wisdom could help him overcome his lack of innate soul power and become a Soul Master. Ji Feng left frustrated about summoning another non-combatant, but with a plan to strengthen his own body.

• Ji Feng summoned Nahida in his courtyard while Kokomi watched, and Nahida disappeared as Ji Feng took on her appearance.
• Ji Feng used Nahida’s body to introduce himself to Kokomi, then confirmed that he could access a summoned character’s memories and abilities.
• Ji Feng complained that Nahida was a desk-job deity and said he wanted a combat-focused character.
• Kokomi explained that Ji Feng should strengthen his own body rather than rely on summoned characters, and that Nahida could use her wisdom to help him become a Soul Master.

Ji Feng used Nahida’s body to study his original body and discovered he could bestow it a second martial soul, then worked with Kokomi to devise a powerful dream-based one. He left the conversation asking Kokomi to help him figure out how to connect other people to his dream world.

• Nahida reported that Ji Feng’s original body had gained innate full soul power, but his Genshin Impact martial soul could not acquire soul rings or grow.
• Nahida explained that he could bestow a second martial soul by molding one with Dendro Authority or converting a summoned character or part of one.
• Kokomi advised refining Nahida’s Dream Authority into a mental martial soul that could connect to other people and borrow their martial souls.
• Nahida praised Kokomi’s idea, embraced and kissed her, and promised to bring her into his harem as a reward.
• Nahida asked Kokomi how to connect people to his dream world, then complained that having a strategist still left him doing the thinking.

Nahida devised a way to draw Soul Masters into a shared dream and have them willingly sustain it through a Consciousness Link, with Kokomi proposing useful rewards to attract participants. Nahida then reached almost the entire continent through her Psychic Network, proclaimed herself Buer, God of Wisdom, and opened the Sanctuary of Surasthana to those seeking a new life.

• Nahida realized that a mental imprint could make people use their own Soul Power and mental power to sustain the dream, but she struggled to find a way to make them agree.
• Kokomi suggested offering relaxation, simulated battles, information exchange, knowledge, healing, and Martial Soul evolution to persuade people to receive an imprint.
• Nahida harnessed elemental power and spread her Psychic Network through Soul Masters’ Psychic Fields across the continent.
• Nahida drew countless people, including Qian Daoliu, into a near-realistic World of Dreams.
• Nahida appeared before the gathered people and proclaimed herself Buer, God of Wisdom, announcing that the Sanctuary of Surasthana would welcome every noble and kind soul seeking a new life.

Qian Daoliu investigated Buer’s dream and learned that Spirit Hall’s Su Qingyun had received the Goddess of Wisdom’s inheritance. He secretly copied her cultivation method, then appointed her an honorary elder and allowed her to spread the Sanctuary of Surasthana’s teachings within Spirit Hall.

• Qian Daoliu ordered Spirit Hall’s leaders to investigate Buer and concluded that she was likely gathering faith through the Sanctuary of Surasthana.
• Qian Xunji reported that Su Qingyun had received Buer’s inheritance, prompting Qian Daoliu to consider both the threat and opportunity it presented.
• Su Qingyun explained that Buer gave her the Pure Good Heart Sutra, which strengthened spiritual power, purified her Martial Soul, and could eventually let her become a shrine maiden.
• Qian Xunji asked to see the cultivation method, but Su Qingyun said she could pass it on only to someone sincerely willing to join the Sanctuary of Surasthana.
• Qian Daoliu had Su Qingyun cultivate so he could copy the method with his divine sense, then named her an honorary elder and authorized her to teach within Spirit Hall.

Nahida and Ji Feng prepared the Sanctuary of Surasthana’s teachings to spread the Pure Good Heart Sutra and awaken new martial souls. Ji Feng endured the painful extraction of Nahida’s dream authority and forced it into his original body, then fainted as Nahida regained control of her own.

• Nahida established a first group of roughly a thousand Pure Good Heart Sutra inheritors, mostly ordinary people, and offered contribution-based awakening opportunities.
• Nahida returned to Kokomi and explained that her body was a soul-power projection, then sat in Kokomi’s lap and let her feed her breakfast.
• Ji Feng began extracting Nahida’s dream authority to create his martial soul, enduring intense pain while Kokomi watched.
• The real Nahida’s consciousness emerged and suggested that Ji Feng could avoid the pain by transforming her body into an adult man’s.
• Ji Feng refused to give up on building a harem with his original body and forcibly transferred Nahida’s dream authority into it.
• Ji Feng fainted after the transfer, and Nahida regained control of her body.

Nahida and Sangonomiya Kokomi argued over Kokomi’s loyalty to Ji Feng and whether the two were compatriots. After learning that Nahida could not escape her dependence on Ji Feng, Kokomi suggested a way to create a freer clone, and Nahida began trying it.

• Sangonomiya Kokomi approached Ji Feng’s unconscious body and learned that the Nahida before her was the one he had summoned.
• Nahida accused Kokomi of betraying her, neglecting her homeland, and dishonoring her former sovereign, but Kokomi refuted each charge.
• Nahida countered that their shared summoning and circumstances made them compatriots, while Kokomi argued that they were separate projections and that she was loyal to Ji Feng by choice.
• Kokomi asked why Nahida did not escape, and Nahida explained that she was Ji Feng’s dependent clone and would die if separated from him.
• Kokomi proposed that Nahida create another clone and loosen its restrictions, and Nahida praised the scheme before sitting down to try it.

After Nahida healed Ji Feng, she confronted him about treating her like a tool and negotiated for more freedom and respect. Ji Feng agreed to treat her well after Nahida’s emotional appeal, though their arrangement remained shaped by Kokomi’s intervention.

• Ji Feng woke up in the courtyard after half an hour and learned Nahida had used her Dendro authority to heal him.
• Nahida confronted Ji Feng for letting Kokomi move freely while keeping her confined, and demanded that Kokomi represent her in their negotiation.
• Nahida provoked Ji Feng into hearing her terms: she wanted to use her own body with consent, receive compensation for exceptions, and be treated as his teacher and adviser.
• Ji Feng rejected Nahida’s terms and proposed that she needed his permission to use her body and should help him unconditionally.
• Kokomi suggested Nahida could normally use her body and remain as a soul avatar when Ji Feng borrowed it, and Nahida accepted the compromise for the time being.
• Nahida appealed to Ji Feng’s sympathy by describing her isolation and asking him to treat her as a living person, and he agreed to take good care of her.

Ji Feng revealed his divine-grade Four-Leaf Illusion God Eye Martial Soul and asked Nahida to create a powerful first Soul Ring, but she admitted she could not do so without studying one. Kokomi proposed asking Ah Yin for help, while Nahida insisted she could fight with Dendro herself.

• Ji Feng showed Nahida and Sangonomiya Kokomi his Four-Leaf Illusion God Eye, whose abilities included simulating people connected through dreams, casting illusions, and reading minds through eye contact.
• Nahida corrected Ji Feng about the Martial Soul’s name and explained that she could not condense a Soul Ring or grant him Susanoo because she had only recently arrived and lacked practical knowledge of Douluo Continent’s rules.
• Nahida discussed how Martial Soul awakening, cultivation, and Soul Ring absorption worked before Ji Feng interrupted her to ask for the best path forward.
• Kokomi suggested that Ji Feng seek out Ah Yin, a kind Soul Emperor, and said Nahida might learn to condense Soul Rings after witnessing his first absorption.
• Nahida objected to being treated as a wish-granting machine and declared that she could fight with Dendro, even if combat was not her specialty.

Ji Feng, Kokomi, and Nahida toured the city as the God of Wisdom’s dream and cultivation method spread across the continent. They reached Ah Yin’s medicinal shop, where Ji Feng confronted a Soul King who was harassing her, and Ah Yin rejected the man in Ji Feng’s defense.

• Kokomi asked Ji Feng about the martial souls gathered through Nahida’s inheritance, and Ji Feng listed several powerful examples.
• People across the continent discussed Nahida’s dream, praised her kindness toward ordinary people, and sought to join the Sanctuary of Surasthana.
• Ji Feng realized that people overlooked Nahida when she walked openly among them, and Nahida explained that she had altered their perception.
• Ji Feng, Kokomi, and Nahida arrived at Ah Yin’s medicinal shop and found a young Soul King pestering her while an elderly man watched nearby.
• Ji Feng challenged the young man, who revealed his five soul rings and threatened him, but Ah Yin stepped between them and firmly rejected the man’s advances.

Ji Feng used his Four-Leaf Illusion God Eyes to overwhelm Lu Changgeng and his Soul Emperor guard, then learned that his spiritual power could defeat anyone below the Soul Saint level. Nahida revealed herself to Ah Yin as Buer, the God of Wisdom, and asked for her help, which Ah Yin gladly agreed to provide.

• Lu Changgeng threatened Ah Yin and Ji Feng, but Ji Feng stepped forward despite Ah Yin warning him that he could not win.
• Ji Feng used his Four-Leaf Illusion God Eyes to terrify Lu Changgeng and make him collapse.
• Lu Changgeng's Soul Emperor guard attacked Ji Feng, but Ji Feng overwhelmed him with Dream Authority and ordered him to take Lu Changgeng away and keep the incident secret.
• The guard fled with Lu Changgeng, and Ji Feng realized his spiritual power could defeat anyone below the Soul Saint level despite his Soul Scholar rank.
• Ah Yin asked Nahida if she was the God of Wisdom from her dream, and Nahida introduced herself as Buer and requested Ah Yin's help.
• Ah Yin gladly agreed to help Nahida and Ji Feng.

Ji Feng bragged about defeating a Soul Emperor and told Ah Yin that Nahida was his awakened martial soul, while Nahida privately wondered why the Genshin Impact martial soul was so powerful. After Ji Feng transformed into Nahida, Ah Yin embraced him with intense affection and possessiveness.

• Ji Feng drew attention to his solo victory over a Soul Emperor and claimed that helping Ah Yin had awakened his martial soul.
• Nahida told Ah Yin that she was a true god whose power let Ji Feng defeat a Soul Emperor, while privately questioning the nature of the Genshin Impact martial soul.
• Ah Yin asked whether Ji Feng was Nahida's disciple or successor, and Ji Feng transformed into Nahida and claimed to be the original.
• Ah Yin gathered the transformed Ji Feng into her arms, overcome by affection and a possessive desire to keep him close.
