• Yu Tianheng woke and saw Lin En holding Dugu Yan’s hand, then shouted in anguish and drew the Heaven Dou and Skywater teams’ attention.

Dugu Yan’s attempt to explain Lin En’s treatment to Yu Tianheng failed, and he left believing she had betrayed him. After the teams ended their practice, Dugu Yan secretly arranged to take Lin En to meet her grandfather so he could verify his claim that she was poisoned.

• Dugu Yan told Yu Tianheng that Lin En had only been treating her, and Lin En and the Skywater Team backed up her explanation, but Yu Tianheng left unconvinced.

• After Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan left, Lin En summoned Ingkaros and Sageross.
• Lin En admired Sageross’s evolution into King Sa and explained that its power had caused the disturbance at the spring.

Sageross evolved and gained the Ice Dragon King's soul, while Ingkaros remained just short of his own superevolution. The dragon souls revealed two Dragon Cores and two God-Level Soul Bones, and Lin En began absorbing the bones as he prepared for the pain.

• Sageross evolved to soul power level fifty, while Lin En reassured Ingkaros that he would eventually catch up.
• Lin En asked Sageross and Ingkaros to summon their dragon soul forms, and the two mantises transformed with the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings’ souls.
• The dragon souls produced two Dragon Cores and two universal God-Level Soul Bones, which Lin En identified and collected.

• Lin En began absorbing both Soul Bones at once and endured violent pain as their frost and flame energies entered his body.

After absorbing the Fire Dragon King's Torso Bone and Ice Dragon King's Head Soul Bone, Lin En discovered that his strength and spiritual power had grown dramatically. He and Dugu Bo set out to hunt high-level Soul Beasts, and Lin En chose a Purple Intent Spider Emperor to devour and fuse into his Iceflame Eight Spider Lances.

• Lin En awoke after three days of absorbing the two Soul Bones, shattered a boulder with one punch, and found that his spiritual power had reached at least the Boundless Vast Sea realm.

• Lin En planned to devour the Purple Intent Spider Emperor and fuse it into his Iceflame Eight Spider Lances rather than absorb its Soul Ring.

Lin En watched the Purple-Winged Spider Emperor slaughter its own clan and consume their blood essence to raise its cultivation to the brink of a hundred thousand years. A heavenly tribulation began, and Dugu Bo arrived, eager for the Soul Bone a hundred-thousand-year beast would yield for Yanyan.

• Lin En chased the Purple-Winged Spider Emperor to the Purple-Winged Demon Spider habitat, where the Emperor began killing its kin to increase its strength.
• The Purple-Winged Spider Emperor ignored its clan members’ pleas and slaughtered thousands, including hatchlings, raising its cultivation from seventy-eight thousand to ninety-nine thousand nine hundred years.
• Lin En watched without intervening, expecting Dugu Bo to arrive and wanting to see the Spider Emperor’s limits.
• A hundred-thousand-year thunder tribulation formed above the habitat, and Dugu Bo descended beside Lin En to ask what had happened.
