Chapter Summaries

Su Mo and Ge Long led the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall allied army to liberate Fanos Province, destroying the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction forces at the three passes and in the mountains. They returned to the Pelage Kingdom and decided to focus their main offensive on the Kirikris Kingdom while gradually taking Yunluo Duchy.

• Su Mo and Ge Long sent the Soul Controller Legion and Royal Knights to pursue and annihilate the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction reinforcements returning toward the three passes.
• The allied army reached Jianmen Pass, destroyed the trapped Anti-Spirit Hall Faction force, and drove the armies fleeing from Xiling Pass and Zhenshan Pass into the Xiling Mountain Range.
• Su Mo used Flying System Soul Masters to locate the fleeing armies, and his forces killed or captured them within five days, liberating Fanos Province.
• Su Mo and Ge Long returned to the Pelage Kingdom and chose to make the Kirikris Kingdom their main target while gradually attacking Yunluo Duchy with a smaller force.

After consolidating the Pelage Kingdom and recovering Fanos Province, Su Mo and Ge Long failed to break through the Kirikris Kingdom’s defenses, so they shifted their campaign toward the weaker Yunluo Duchy. The Yunluo Duchy fell to their forces and the expanding household militia, while Dai Huangjun remained unable to counterattack effectively.

• Dai Huangjun found Kirikris Kingdom’s cities short of food and delayed his planned offensive while he arranged to transport provisions from the rear.

• Su Mo and Ge Long repeatedly attacked Kirikris Kingdom’s fortified cities but withdrew when the Six Divine Officials prevented a breakthrough.
• Su Mo and Ge Long sent trained household militia, supported by Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall forces, to invade Yunluo Duchy.
• The Yunluo Duchy rapidly collapsed under the advancing forces and was conquered.

After the Yunluo Duchy fell, Dai Huangjun worried that the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall coalition would use Longyan Province and Antony Province to advance toward Star Luo Province. Su Mo arrived in Yunluo Royal City to begin land reform and prepare a two-pronged invasion of the Star Luo Empire.

• Dai Huangjun learned that the Yunluo Duchy had fallen and feared the coalition would advance along the Damos River toward Star Luo Imperial City.

• Su Mo planned to distribute land in the Yunluo Duchy, weaken its nobles, and recruit militia from the commoners.
• Su Mo prepared to send the Pelage Kingdom and Yunluo Duchy militias into Longyan Province and Antony Province simultaneously.

Su Mo completed land reform in the Yunluo Duchy, recruited nearly one hundred thousand prefectural soldiers, and sent forces to attack Longyan Province and Antony Province. Dai Huangjun and the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction faced a choice between defending the two provinces and abandoning the Kirikris Kingdom.

• Su Mo led Zi Zhenzhu, Shui Bing'er, and allied forces in land reform around Yunluo Royal City, winning the commoners’ support.
• Heaven Dou Empire soldiers grew envious as they watched land go to commoners in the conquered territories, a sentiment Su Mo hoped to use to advance land reform at home later.
• Su Mo recruited and trained nearly one hundred thousand prefectural soldiers in the Yunluo Duchy, then ordered Pelage and Yunluo forces to attack Longyan Province and Antony Province.
• Dai Huangjun told Dai Tianfeng that Su Mo’s expanding forces had attacked both provinces, prompting Dai Tianfeng to order the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction to raise more troops.
• Dai Huangjun faced the choice of dividing his forces and sending the Six Divine Officials to defend Longyan Province and Antony Province, or preserving the Kirikris Kingdom.

Dai Huangjun and the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction withdrew from the Kirikris Kingdom and formed a defensive line as Su Mo’s forces advanced cautiously into Longyan Province and Antony Province. In the God Realm, the gods debated how to prevent the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s defeat, with the God of Evil proposing that its chosen geniuses be allowed to become gods sooner and fight Su Mo.

• Dai Huangjun and the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s upper ranks abandoned the Kirikris Kingdom, retreating toward the Hadrian Kingdom and key mountain passes while preparing a defensive line across the Calamity, Forging God, and Earth Dragon Mountain Ranges.
• The Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall coalition discovered the withdrawal, occupied the Kirikris Kingdom, and halted at the Hadrian Kingdom’s defended border while awaiting orders.
• Qian Renxue gave Ge Long and Su Mo command over the next campaign, and Su Mo advised Ge Long not to rush an attack.
• Su Mo advanced local troops into Longyan Province and Antony Province, consolidating captured territory through land reform and continuing reforms in the Kirikris Kingdom.
• The Second Generation Asura God, the God of Destruction, and the God of Evil debated how to aid the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction, and the God of Evil suggested hastening its geniuses’ ascension so they could fight Su Mo.

The God of Destruction and God of Evil warned the God Realm Committee that Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire might unify the Douluo Continent and revive dangerous Soul Tool Technology. The Five Great Divine Kings asked the gods to lower the difficulty of their successors’ God Nine Trials, but the other gods resisted and proposed waiting or sending divine officials to help.

• The God of Destruction explained that a unified Douluo Continent might develop Soul Tool weapons capable of threatening the God Realm.
• The God of Evil argued that the gods had to prevent Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire from unifying the continent.
• The God of Kindness asked the gods to lower the difficulty of the God Nine Trials for their Anti-Spirit Hall Faction successors.
• The First Level Gods and Second Level Gods refused, saying the trials were already as easy as they could make them and their successors needed to prove themselves.
• The gods suggested waiting for the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction to endure its current danger, or sending more divine officials to help if matters worsened.

The Anti-Spirit Hall Faction received ten more divine officials from the God Realm, bringing their total to sixteen. The newcomers dismissed the need to defend and set out to attack their enemies, while Dai Tianfeng secretly informed Su Mo of their plans.

• The God Realm Committee agreed to send divine officials to aid the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction, while the First Level Gods and Second Level Gods remained reluctant to abandon their divine trials.
• After receiving Sea God Poseidon's decree, Dai Tianfeng gathered the faction's rulers and told them ten divine officials were coming to help.
• Ten divine officials arrived at the Star Luo Imperial Palace, where Dai Tianfeng and the kings explained the faction's dire situation.
• The newly arrived divine officials decided to attack the enemy's leaders and capitals instead of joining the defensive effort.
• Dai Tianfeng arranged for guides to take the ten divine officials to Heaven Dou Imperial City and Spirit City, then secretly sent word to Su Mo.

Su Mo learned that ten Divine Officials planned to attack Spirit City and Heaven Dou Imperial City, and sent his clone to stop them while he prepared to follow his plan to strike back. The clone trapped the attackers outside Spirit City and targeted the God of Healing's Divine Official, leaving the battle poised to begin in earnest.

• Su Mo learned from Dai Tianfeng that ten Divine Officials had descended to attack Spirit City and Heaven Dou Imperial City, and he decided to follow the future he had deduced.
• The ten Divine Officials mocked Dark Sword and the other six officials at the Hadrian Kingdom border, then headed for Spirit City.
• After Dai Tianfeng's messenger informed Su Mo's clone of the threat, the clone used Death Country to teleport to Spirit City.
• The ten Divine Officials arrived outside Spirit City and prepared to destroy it, but Su Mo's clone blocked their path and split the Fire God's Divine Official's sea of flames with one slash.
• Su Mo's clone used Avici Hell to trap the ten Divine Officials in an illusion, teleported behind the God of Healing's Divine Official, and struck with Death Reaping imbued in the Death God Scythe.

A clone of Su Mo held off the ten Divine Officials outside Spirit City until Su Mo arrived. After the clone collapsed, the Divine Officials realized they were facing the original body and began to panic.

• The Death God Scythe Spirit wounded the God of Healing's Divine Official, whose healing power could not remove the lingering deathly aura.
• The ten Divine Officials became wary of the clone but attacked together rather than retreating.
• The clone used Avici Hell, Death Reaping, and Death Country to hold off the Divine Officials for hours while suffering severe injuries.
• Su Mo received Dai Tianfeng's message and hurried toward Spirit City, using the Death Domain to teleport along the way.
• Su Mo arrived with nine blood-gold Soul Rings, and the exhausted clone collapsed into Soul Power light.
• The ten Divine Officials realized the fighter they had faced was Su Mo's clone and panicked at the original body's arrival.

Su Mo killed three Divine Officials with Death God's Sigh, forcing the survivors to flee and help defend the Star Luo Empire. After six months of campaigning, Su Mo and Ge Long feigned an attack on Antony Province, then struck the Hadrian Kingdom from two directions, leaving its border passes falling.

• Su Mo used Death God's Sigh to destroy the divine souls of three Divine Officials, and the seven survivors fled in terror.
• The seven Divine Officials returned to Star Luo Imperial City and, at Dai Tianfeng's request, helped garrison the defensive passes in Antony Province and Longyan Province.
• After six months, Su Mo and Ge Long chose to attack the Hadrian Kingdom, planning to use the Saint King River to advance toward Star Luo Province.
• Su Mo and Ge Long feigned preparations to attack Antony Province, prompting the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction to concentrate troops there.
• Su Mo secretly crossed to the Kirikris Kingdom and led its forces toward the Hadrian Kingdom as Spirit Hall sent an elite force from Spirit City.
• Su Mo's army and Spirit Hall's surprise force attacked from both sides, quickly capturing the Hadrian Kingdom's border passes.

Su Mo captured part of the Hadrian Kingdom, then halted his advance as the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction reinforced its defenses. With land reform strengthening the territories held by Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall while the offensives elsewhere stalled, Su Mo decided to open a new battlefield for land reform.

• Su Mo led Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall forces through the Hadrian Kingdom's border passes, capturing about one-fifth of the kingdom and establishing defensible positions before the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction could stop him.
• The Anti-Spirit Hall Faction sent reinforcements to Hadrian Royal City, while Dark Sword and the other Six Divine Officials returned to guard against Su Mo's true body.
• Su Mo and Ge Long's land reforms in the Pelage Kingdom, Yunluo Duchy, Kirikris Kingdom, and occupied parts of the Hadrian Kingdom won commoner support and strengthened their armies and supply lines.
• Su Mo left his clone in the Hadrian Kingdom and returned to Antony Province and Longyan Province to deter the Divine Officials there, but the campaigns remained stalled.
• Su Mo decided to open a new battlefield for land reform because progress in the Hadrian Kingdom required time and the offensives in Antony Province and Longyan Province had reached a deadlock.

Su Mo planned to seize the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy by attacking their coastal pass and capturing Star Dou City with help from the Sea Soul Beast Council. The Star Luo court detected Heaven Dou troop movements, feared an attack on the two states, and arranged limited reinforcements while warning their kings to prepare.

• Su Mo planned to send Qian Renxue’s rested forces toward the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy while he sought Sea Soul Beast Council support to capture Star Dou City.
• Dai Tianfeng received reports of unusual Heaven Dou troop movements and ordered scouts to keep watching them.
• Star Luo scouts tracked the Heaven Dou forces as they moved through Yunluo Duchy and Pelage Kingdom toward Fanos Province.
• Star Luo generals and ministers suspected the forces were preparing to attack the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy, then agreed to raise money and send reinforcements through Star Radiance Duchy.
• The Star Luo Empire warned the kings of the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy to prepare to resist an attack.

Qian Renxue used the Heaven Dou army’s leave as a deception, then launched a surprise attack across the Gold Blue River and defeated the forces defending the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy. Their rulers and nobles fled, allowing the two territories to fall back under the Heaven Dou Empire.

• Qian Renxue gave the returning Heaven Dou army three months of leave and disbanded it, leaving the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction uncertain about when an attack would come.
• Two months later, Qian Renxue secretly gathered the disguised soldiers near the Gold Blue River and ordered a night march to join the forces stationed there.
• Heaven Dou’s Ice Attribute Soul Masters froze the river, enabling the combined forces to attack and crush the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy’s allied army and Anti-Spirit Hall reinforcements.
• The Gulei king, the crown prince, and the royal family fled toward Star Luo Imperial City, while the king of Heaven Frost Duchy and the nobles also escaped.
• With their rulers and nobles gone, the Gulei Kingdom and Heaven Frost Duchy quickly fell, and both territories returned to the Heaven Dou Empire.

The Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall launched simultaneous offensives against the Hadrian Kingdom and the Star Radiance Duchy, preventing the Star Luo Empire from aiding both fronts. The Star Radiance Duchy and Benlang Kingdom fell, leaving the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction with only the Star Luo Empire and most of the Hadrian Kingdom.

• Su Mo, Ge Long, and Qian Renxue began simultaneous attacks from the Hadrian Kingdom and Gulei Kingdom after the land reforms and militia recruitment had stabilized.
• The allied forces defeated the Star Radiance Duchy's border troops, while the Star Radiance King asked the Star Luo Empire for help.
• Dai Tianfeng said the Star Luo Empire could not send reinforcements because its forces were supporting the Hadrian Kingdom, and urged the Star Radiance Duchy to hold out.
• The Star Radiance King fled to Star Luo Province after Star Radiance Royal City fell, leaving his treasures behind.
• The Benlang King abandoned his kingdom and escaped to the Star Luo Imperial City with his royal family and treasures.
• The allied forces occupied the Benlang Duchy without resistance, leaving the Star Luo Empire and most of the Hadrian Kingdom as the faction's remaining territories.

The God Realm Committee and Poseidon considered how to save the collapsing Anti-Spirit Hall Faction, whose remaining territories were the Star Luo Empire and part of the Hadrian Kingdom. They ordered the Gods overseeing the God Nine Trials to make them easier so the faction’s geniuses could become Gods within the year, and Poseidon urged Dai Tianfeng to hold on.

• The Five Great Divine Kings and Poseidon saw that the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction had lost most of its territory and feared the Star Luo Empire would fall within one or two years.
• The Divine Kings observed the geniuses taking the God Nine Trials and concluded that their remaining trials were too difficult for them to become Gods in time.
• The God Realm Committee summoned the Gods with God Chosen Lands on Douluo Continent and showed them the continent’s worsening situation.
• The Gods discussed their fear that Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire would advance Soul Tool Technology and allow humans and Soul Beasts to progress together, which threatened the God Realm’s interests.
• The Divine Kings persuaded the Gods to ease the trials so the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s geniuses could become Gods within the year.
• Poseidon sent Dai Tianfeng a message urging him to hold on because the God Realm was taking action.

After learning that the God Realm planned to help the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s geniuses become gods, Su Mo accelerated his campaign and launched a coordinated final offensive. The allied armies broke through the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s defenses and entered Star Luo Province, leaving Star Luo Imperial City nearly defenseless as the chapter ended.

• Dai Tianfeng told Su Mo that the God Realm intended to help the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s geniuses become gods within the year, and Su Mo decided to launch the final offensive after three months.
• After the land reforms took hold, Su Mo, Qian Renxue, and Bibi Dong ordered simultaneous attacks from five fronts and sent the factions’ full strength into battle.
• Su Mo killed four Divine Officials in Antony Province with the Ice Fire Dragon King Martial Soul and Death God's Sigh, while Gu Yuena and her clone defeated Dark Sword and six other Divine Officials in the Hadrian Kingdom.
• Su Mo rushed to the Earth Dragon Mountain Range and led the assault on Longyan Province, catching its defenders and three Divine Officials unprepared.
• The allied armies broke through the defenses in the Hadrian Kingdom, Antony Province, Longyan Province, Star Radiance Duchy, and Benlang Kingdom, advancing into Star Luo Province.
• Star Luo Imperial City received reports of the defeats and panicked as its forces had been sent out, leaving almost no troops to defend the city or province.

Dai Tianfeng rallied the Star Luo Empire’s leaders by insisting its mountain passes and the God Realm could still protect them, but the passes fell rapidly to the allied forces of the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall. With only Star Luo Imperial City’s final defenses remaining, Dai Tianfeng and Zhu Xuanfeng led forces to Tiger Might Pass and God Fight Pass while the God Realm rushed to complete divine inheritances for the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s geniuses.

• Dai Tianfeng told the Star Luo Empire’s leaders that its mountain passes would delay the invasion and that the God Realm would help the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction’s geniuses become Gods.
• Tiger’s Fury Pass and Tiger’s Roar Pass fell, and the allied forces of the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall approached Tiger Might Pass and God Fight Pass.
• Escaped soldiers revealed that Su Mo had killed the divine officials and used powerful Soul Beasts, including a crimson dragon and an ice-blue dragon, to destroy the passes’ walls.
• Dai Tianfeng vowed to defend Tiger Might Pass, while Zhu Xuanfeng led the Netherworld Duke’s forces to reinforce God Fight Pass.
• Dai Tianfeng’s forces reached Tiger Might Pass and watched allied ships arrive along the Saint King River as they prepared for the final battle.
• The Five Great Divine Kings and Sea God Poseidon ordered the gods to pass down their divine inheritances immediately, but completing them would take several days.

As Su Mo and Bibi Dong prepared to take Tiger Might Pass, Su Mo summoned his million-year Soul Spirits and the Ice Fire Dragon King's remnant soul, which shattered the pass's walls. The Five Great Divine Kings and Sea God Poseidon then descended to the mortal world to intervene.

• Su Mo prepared to assault Tiger Might Pass with Bibi Dong after the allied army arrived and rested.
• Su Mo summoned his Soul Spirits, whose Soul Rings had been raised to a million years, and they took their immense true forms.
• Su Mo summoned the Ice Fire Dragon King's remnant soul, whose dragon breath destroyed Tiger Might Pass's walls.
• The Five Great Divine Kings decided to intervene as Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire neared victory over the Anti-Spirit Hall Faction.
• The God of Destruction, Goddess of Life, God of Evil, God of Kindness, Asura God, and Sea God Poseidon descended from the God Realm.

Su Mo confronted the descending gods and defended Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire’s war as a necessary step toward unifying Douluo Continent and improving commoners’ lives. As Sea God Poseidon and the Second Generation Asura God prepared to attack, Su Mo ordered the system to use five Memory Modification Opportunities on the God Kings.

• The God of Evil accused Spirit Hall of causing death and displacement through war, but Su Mo challenged the gods’ right to judge Douluo Continent.
• Su Mo argued that unification would end conflicts between kingdoms and improve commoners’ lives, winning the approval of the allied armies behind him.
• The God Kings and Poseidon rejected Su Mo’s defense and prepared to kill him, while the Second Generation Asura God summoned the Asura Demon Sword from Tang San’s hand.
• Su Mo ordered the system to use his five Memory Modification Opportunities on the God of Destruction, the Goddess of Life, the God of Evil, the God of Kindness, and the First Generation Asura God.

Su Mo altered the four Divine Kings’ memories, turning them against Sea God Poseidon and the Second Generation Asura God. The Divine Kings publicly blamed the two gods for the God Realm’s past interference in Douluo Continent and prepared to punish them.

• Su Mo changed the memories of the four Divine Kings, who then protected him and attacked Sea God Poseidon and the Second Generation Asura God.

• The God of Evil accused Sea God Poseidon of prompting the God Realm to destroy the Soul Tool Empire and blamed both gods for trying to stop Douluo Continent’s unification.
• The Divine Kings apologized to Douluo Continent and declared that Sea God Poseidon and the Second Generation Asura God would be purged to atone for the God Realm’s wrongs.
