Chapter Summaries

Lu Yu fused Zhou Sichen’s grimoire with his simulated martial souls and tested a Bright Phoenix that revived rapidly and grew into a powerful Vermilion Bird. After discussing future plans for divine-beast abilities and the coming auction, he prepared to convert Huo Yutong’s second soul spirit.

• Lu Yu fused the grimoire with his simulated Frost Giant Bear, which survived Nan Qiuqiu’s Annihilation Light.
• Nan Qiuqiu destroyed Lu Yu’s Bright Phoenix with Annihilation Hand, but it re-formed behind her.
• Lu Yu stacked ultimate attributes and phoenix powers onto the Bright Phoenix, named it Vermilion Bird, and pinned Nan Qiuqiu with its Phoenix Fire Line.
• Nan Qiuqiu repeatedly struck Vermilion Bird with Annihilation Claw, but its body regenerated until she ran out of energy.
• Lu Yu considered creating a Black Tortoise and refining White Tiger Gu before the next day’s auction.
• Lu Yu brought out a God-Sealing Platform and told Huo Yutong that she was ready to convert her second soul spirit.

Lu Yu and Huo Yutong forcibly converted Snow Empress into a soul spirit after she refused to cooperate, while Ice Empress and Tian Meng restrained her. Snow Empress eventually supplied the skills for Huo Yutong’s soul bones, and her absorption gave Huo Yutong three orange-red soul rings and raised her to level 50.

• Ice Empress tried to persuade Snow Empress to become a soul spirit, but Snow Empress refused and demanded to be released.
• Lu Yu brought Huo Yutong to Snow Empress’s God-Sealing Platform and used soul chains to control her before pulling her out.
• Snow Empress burned her origin to resist, but Ice Empress and Tian Meng pinned her down and used Ice Empress’s self-taught sealing technique to stop her.
• Lu Yu engraved skills into Snow Empress while she endured the pain without making a sound, and Ice Empress admitted to Tian Meng that her secret technique was made up.
• Ice Empress inferred that Snow Empress had hoped to reincarnate and seek godhood independently, then quietly told her to put Emperor Sword and Emperor’s Palm into Huo Yutong’s soul-bone skill slots.
• Snow Empress entered Huo Yutong as a soul spirit, giving her three orange-red soul rings and raising her to level 50.

Huo Yutong tested the abilities she gained from the Snow Empress, revealing powerful ice-based transformations, buff theft, teleportation, and domain skills. She ended by explaining that she could not demonstrate her two remaining skills, Advent of the Ice and Snow Emperors, because she lacked sufficient Soul Power.

• Huo Yutong told Lu Yu that the Snow Empress had given her an Emperor Sword right arm bone and an Emperor's Palm right palm External Soul Bone, and showed him the Snow Empress's castle in her Sea of Consciousness.
• Huo Yutong demonstrated Heavenly Snow Woman, transforming into ice and snow with physical and ice-damage immunity, then briefly reshaped her body before going outside to startle Xiao Xiao.
• When Xiao Xiao attacked, Huo Yutong used Emperor Sword to block her cauldrons and absorb their colors; she later accidentally stole Jiang Nannan's Invincible Golden Body with Snow Woman's Plunder.
• Huo Yutong revealed that her Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain let her use Soul Skills throughout its area and teleport anywhere within it, while Lu Yu and the others discussed how formidable her abilities were.
• Lu Yu urged Xu Tianzhen to cultivate harder, and Huo Yutong explained that she could not demonstrate Advent of the Ice and Snow Emperors because she lacked enough Soul Power.

Lu Yu demonstrated a method for Soul Spirits to use their Soul Skills through Externalized Simulation and prepared his group for a dangerous auction. Meanwhile, Xuan Zi and Shrek’s delegation arrived at the Star Luo Grand Hotel, where Zhang Lexuan warned she would keep him in check.

• Lu Yu explained that Yutong could summon the Ice Empress and Snow Empress with powerful advent-type Soul Skills, while the Ice Empress demanded a chance to use her Pincer.
• Lu Yu used a magic array and Simulated Martial Soul Summoning to make the Ice Empress’s body solid enough to use Ice Empress’s Pincer.
• Lu Yu explained how Soul Spirit Externalized Simulation worked, wrote down the method, and told the group to prepare for danger at the next night’s auction.
• Yan Shaozhe welcomed Xuan Zi, Xian Lin'er, and Zhang Lexuan to the Star Luo Grand Hotel and offered them a feast.
• Zhang Lexuan warned Xuan Zi that she would use the Sea God Token to control him if he misbehaved, while Yan Shaozhe privately watched with a sly gleam.

Yan Shaozhe tried to recruit Xuan Zi into seizing an immortal herb or Sun Moon Empire soul tools, but Zhang Lexuan refused to hand over the Sea God Token. Meanwhile, Yu Tao and Lang Ya arrived in Star Luo City and attacked Vina and Ning Tian, leaving the two girls in immediate danger.

• Yan Shaozhe hosted the Shrek group with a lavish feast, then told Xuan Zi that taking an immortal herb or soul tools could help him end his house arrest.
• Xuan Zi agreed to help if Zhang Lexuan handed over the Sea God Token, and he asked Yan Shaozhe to give any immortal herb to Lexuan afterward.
• Zhang Lexuan refused Yan Shaozhe's proposal, citing Mu En's warning and her duty to protect the students.
• Yan Shaozhe concealed his anger, added an antidote to a fresh pot of chicken soup, and returned it to Xuan Zi.
• Yu Tao and Lang Ya went to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect Branch to find Vina, then Yu Tao attacked Vina and Ning Tian.
• Ning Tian used her Aromatic Silk Domain and called for Vina's amplification, but Yu Tao's strength overwhelmed the barrier as he reached for them.

Ning Tian and Vina fought off Yu Tao, but Lang Ya subdued them until Huo Yutong arrived and defeated him with her Ultimate Ice and Spiritual Combat Skills. Vina learned that her sister had ordered the Body Sect to take her away, but a powerful green figure then entered Huo Yutong's domain.

• Vina amplified Ning Tian, who used her copied Soul Skills and Ultimate Ice to injure Yu Tao and threaten to cripple his Body Martial Soul.
• Lang Ya used Spiritual Power to pin Vina and Ning Tian down, while Yu Tao activated his Martial Soul Avatar and expelled the Ultimate Ice.
• Huo Yutong appeared in her Heavenly Snow Woman state, rescued the two women, and sealed and wounded Lang Ya with her attacks.
• Lang Ya said the Body Sect had been sent by Vina's royal relative to bring her back, and showed Vina a token and letter from a princess of the Heaven Dou Empire.
• Vina read the letter and realized her sister wanted to confine her as a subordinate, then rejected the Body Sect's offer of a Second Awakening.
• A green figure entered Huo Yutong's Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain, and Huo Yutong sensed that his cultivation was close to Mu En's.

Du Busi tried to take Huo Yutong and Princess Vina into the Body Sect, but Lu Yu intervened and forced him to retreat. After copying Du Busi’s Body Martial Soul, Lu Yu planned to use the coming auction to capture Evil Soul Masters and reach level 60.

• Du Busi pushed back Huo Yutong’s domain and demanded that she and Princess Vina join the Body Sect, but Huo Yutong refused.
• When Du Busi prepared to set off an explosion, Huo Yutong fled with Vina and Ning Tian while a firebird attacked Du Busi’s poisonous vortex.
• Lu Yu confronted Du Busi with Lang Ya and Yu Tao as hostages and demanded that the Body Sect swear not to attack him or the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
• Du Busi swore the oath and stood still while Lu Yu copied his Body Martial Soul, then Lu Yu returned Lang Ya and Yu Tao.
• Lu Yu told Huo Yutong he had let Du Busi go because he expected to use him to capture Evil Soul Masters at the auction and reach level 60.

Yan Shaozhe and Feng'er used a powerful knockout drug and memory-controlling Evil Soul Master to steal the Sea God Token from Zhang Lexuan and her friends, while the Holy Spirit Cult planted corruptive tools among them. Lu Yu attended the Starlight Auction House, where the first lot—a Flesh-Reversing Ganoderma—revealed traces of Rakshasa Divine Power and appeared to be bait for a First-Level God's trial.

• Wu Ming, Han Ruoruo, and Zhang Lexuan were knocked unconscious by a drug Feng'er had extracted from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Plant-type Soul Beast.
• Yan Shaozhe let the Remnant Dream Evil Soul Master alter Zhang Lexuan's memories so she would hand over the Sea God Token, while Feng Ling reported planting Secret Arts and tools for Corruption in the group's Soul Tools.
• Lu Yu searched Xu Jiujiu's soul, learned that Wang Dong had arranged for her to draw him to the auction, and decided to attend alone.
• Lu Yu followed Xu Jiujiu to the Starlight Auction House and entered the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's private box as powerful guests gathered.
• Xu Jiujiu unveiled the Flesh-Reversing Ganoderma, prompting Du Busi to insist that the Body Sect acquire it.
• Lu Yu scanned the Immortal Herb and discovered that it bore Rakshasa Divine Power resembling the power at the Ice God Inheritance site, suggesting it was bait for a First-Level God's trial.

Lu Yu assessed the risks of pursuing the Rakshasa God inheritance and identified the Dou Ling Empire as the easiest target in the brewing fight over the auctioned immortal herbs. As the Death Messenger fled with one herb as bait and the Dou Ling Empire escorted another away, Lu Yu followed the Dou Ling Empire’s group.

• Lu Yu considered how other gods could interfere with a God's Trial and concluded he needed to confirm that the Rakshasa Godhood was vacant and its trial free from interference.
• The four immortal herbs were auctioned to the four empires, and the factions prepared to attack one another after leaving the auction.
• Feng Ling told the Death Messenger to carry an immortal herb as bait while the Holy Spirit Cult and Sun Moon Empire attacked the other factions.
• Lu Yu used his Spiritual Power to detect the Death Messenger and his Titled Douluo puppets, then chose the Dou Ling Empire as his target.
• The Death Messenger fled Star Luo City with the bait herb, while the Dou Ling Empire escorted its own herb away and drew dozens of followers.

Lu Yu ambushed the Holy Spirit Cult’s forces while they fought the Dou Ling Empire, killing several Evil Soul Master Titled Douluo and absorbing their soul power. Feng Ling escaped with the immortal herbs, and Lu Yu decided to take Yutong to attack the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion while attention remained elsewhere.

• Feng Ling led the Holy Spirit Cult in attacking the Dou Ling Empire’s escort, forcing two Dou Ling Empire Titled Douluo to stay behind while the rest fled.
• Lu Yu used a Vermilion Bird energy construct and his ultimate light, spiritual, and ice abilities to kill the three Holy Spirit Cult Titled Douluo pursuing the retreating group.
• Lu Yu hypnotized the two surviving Dou Ling Empire Titled Douluo, purified the Evil Soul Masters’ remains, and absorbed their soul power until he reached level 62.
• Feng Ling sensed Lu Yu’s ultimate light and killed a Dou Ling Empire Titled Douluo with Evil Phoenix Sun before taking the immortal herbs and fleeing.
• Feng Ling immobilized several Soul Douluo and left soul bombs behind to delay Lu Yu; he survived the blasts and absorbed the remaining soul power, reaching level 63.
• Lu Yu decided to take Yutong to wipe out the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion while the others focused on the immortal herbs.

Huo Yutong attacked the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion to avenge her mother, killing the guards and confronting Madam Zhu and Dai Yueheng. As the undead white tiger devoured Dai Yueheng, it grew stronger and began transforming into a dark, winged creature.

• Huo Yutong visited her mother’s former grave and vowed to sacrifice the people who had destroyed it.
• Huo Yutong killed the guards at the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Soul Bone and entered the residence.
• Madam Zhu urged Dai Yueheng to eliminate Huo Yutong during their next match, then the mansion’s alarm sounded.
• Huo Yutong entered Madam Zhu’s room, rotted Madam Zhu’s finger, and repelled Dai Yueheng’s White Tiger Annihilation Kill with an undead white tiger.
• Huo Yutong explained that she was collecting the White Tiger Clan’s bloodline power, and the undead tiger devoured Dai Yueheng.
• The undead white tiger grew stronger and transformed from a light-attribute creature into a dark, winged beast with a hooked tail.

Huo Yutong confronted Dai Hao after he killed Madam Zhu and crippled Dai Huabin, then rejected his excuses and killed him. With the White Tiger Duke's Mansion left in ruins, she declared herself reborn.

• Dai Hao returned to the Duke's Mansion and learned from Madam Zhu that Huo Yutong was Huo Yun'er's daughter and had refused to forgive her and Dai Huabin.
• Madam Zhu urged Dai Hao to kill Huo Yutong, and he strangled Madam Zhu before crippling Dai Huabin's Martial Soul.
• Dai Hao left the dining room intending to repair Huo Yun'er's grave, but found the mansion transformed and its grounds strewn with corpses.
• Huo Yutong stood with Elder Yi before the bodies of those who had bullied her mother and told Dai Hao he was the only one left.
• Dai Hao tried to excuse his past actions by blaming the Zhu Family, but Huo Yutong recalled her mother's love and chose to act.
• Huo Yutong killed Dai Hao with the Evil God Tiger Scythe and told Elder Yi and Lu Yu that she had been reborn.
