Chapter Summaries

Qian Chaoguang recruited Mo Xuan as a core member of the Undead Legion and explained how Mo Xuan’s faith had ignited his Divine Fire of Light. After Mo Xuan asked about building a religion, Qian Chaoguang deferred the idea and prepared to introduce him to the Demi-plane and its inhabitants.

• Mo Xuan accepted Qian Chaoguang’s invitation and signed the Soul Contract, officially joining the Undead Legion as a core member.

• Qian Chaoguang invited Mo Xuan to visit the Demi-plane and meet the others, and Mo Xuan agreed to follow him.

Qian Chaoguang brought Mo Xuan into the Undead Subplane, where the expanding Transit Hall and newly advanced undead mounts revealed the Legion’s growth. After announcing that he had ignited the Divine Fire of Light, Qian Chaoguang triggered a universe-wide recognition that baffled the God Kings and established the scale of the Authority he could eventually wield.

• Qian Chaoguang showed Mo Xuan the renovated Transit Hall, introduced him to two Death Knights, and let them see how Mo Xuan’s five soul skills boosted their attributes.
• The Death Knights took Mo Xuan on a tour, while Qian Chaoguang flew with Dragon One to the Great Square and summoned the available undead.
• Qian Chaoguang sent the gathered undead information about the godhood system, Mo Xuan, and his ignition of the Divine Fire of Light.
• The undead responded with fervent devotion, and a powerful fluctuation centered on Qian Chaoguang spread across the universe.
• The four God Kings sensed the fluctuation but could not locate or understand it, while Qian Chaoguang’s unique Authority of Light was established as a universal power above the derivative laws controlled by God Realm deities.

Qian Chaoguang’s Undead Flame and Authority grew rapidly as thousands of undead became Zealous Believers, granting him access to their racial abilities. After securing a phylactery as a resurrection safeguard, he considered how to develop his powers and faith, then met with Mo Xuan to prepare for the Soul Hunting Operation.

Qian Chaoguang and Mu En discussed Shrek’s plans for the upcoming tournament, deciding that the Tang Sect would compete separately while Qian led Shrek’s team. Three days later, the teams were assigned, and Mo Xuan tested his mecha in battle against Soul Beasts.

• Mo Xuan stayed awake from excitement over his new mecha and began learning to pilot it from He Caitou.
• Mu En asked Qian Chaoguang about Shrek’s chances in the tournament and told him the event might expand and take place in the Sun Moon Empire.

• Qian Chaoguang planned to pursue the Sun Moon Empire’s weapons and arsenal during the tournament, while Nana stayed in Star Luo City to buy engineering Soul Tools.
• Mo Xuan piloted his mecha against attacking Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest and impressed the Inner Courtyard students.

Cai Meier’s team captured the Zhongli Three Brothers and obtained the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear and three teleporting soul bones, while Xuan Ziwen’s research on a Soul Tool tank advanced. The chapter left Qian Chaoguang considering whether the soul bones could lead to a mass-producible teleportation system as the tank’s weapon development continued.

• Cai Meier recognized the Zhongli Three Brothers as Evil Soul Masters, and she, Xuan Zi, and Song Lao overpowered and captured them.
• Two months later, the team returned with a Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear spirit ring for an Inner Courtyard disciple and two cubs for the academy’s Beast Fighting Zone.
• Xuan Zi searched the forest for a month, found the three Mutated Wolf Apes, killed them, and brought their teleporting left-leg soul bones back to Qian Chaoguang.
• Qian Chaoguang sealed the Zhongli brothers’ souls, stored their bodies and possessions, and gave the wolf-ape soul bones to Electrolux for study.
• Qian Chaoguang considered whether the soul bones’ shared teleportation trait could help researchers develop an affordable teleportation array.
• Xuan Ziwen and He Caitou continued improving Qian Chaoguang’s tank design, using Sealed Baby Bottle technology to let ordinary people operate it.

Qian Chaoguang’s proposed Soul Power shells offered a cheaper, longer-range alternative to Fixed Soul Cannon Shells, while Shrek finalized its tournament teams under the new format. At the pre-tournament meeting, the Tang Sect confirmed it would compete, and Xuan Zi explained that the academy could only provide it a few Reserve Team members through loopholes in the rules.

• He Caitou and Xuan Ziwen continued researching Qian Chaoguang’s new shell design, aiming to increase its capacity and make it usable with ordinary metals.
• Mu En told Qian Chaoguang that the tournament restructuring was official, and Qian Chaoguang named Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Ning Tian, and Qiu'er as his likely Regular Team Members.
• Qian Chaoguang recommended Dai Loli as a substitute and expressed concern that Mu En’s condition was worsening, but Mu En insisted on appearing through a projection at the meeting.
• The teams and school officials gathered before the Golden Ancient Tree, where Mu En briefly appeared and Xuan Zi announced that sect teams would compete under the finalized rules.
• Bei Bei confirmed that the Tang Sect would enter the tournament, and Xuan Zi warned that Shrek could provide only limited support through Reserve Team members.

• Xuan Zi described the elimination, group, individual, and team-match rules for the Entire Continent Youth Soul Master Elite Tournament and warned Bei Bei to bring the students back safely.
• Yan Shaozhe named Qian Chaoguang captain, selected the regular and substitute members, and revealed Qian Chaoguang’s past victories against powerful opponents when he had only one or two rings.
• Qiu'er objected to Qian Chaoguang’s captaincy and challenged him to prove his strength in actual combat; Qian Chaoguang accepted and invited the others to join, but they refused.
• Qian Chaoguang froze part of Sea God Lake for a spar with Qiu'er, said he would use only his First Martial Soul, and asked Huo Yutong to maintain the ice.
• Dai Loli recognized Wang Dong after she revealed herself and blurted out that she had shared a dormitory with Qian Chaoguang, prompting Wang Dong to kick him away.

Qian Chaoguang fought Wang Qiu'er, whose Golden Dragon Spear and immense physical strength pushed him harder than any previous opponent. After nullifying the spear’s light and matching her strength, he agreed to continue the duel in her strongest field, raising his aura to Soul Emperor level.

• Huo Yutong and the others noticed that Wang Dong and Wang Qiu'er looked alike, though Wang Dong said she was an only child.
• Wang Qiu'er charged Qian Chaoguang and shattered his Heavenly Barrier with two powerful attacks.
• Wang Qiu'er hurled the Golden Dragon Spear, but Qian Chaoguang deflected it and caused its light power to vanish.
• Wang Qiu'er appeared above Qian Chaoguang and struck at him, but their head-on clash left her arms numb and sent her flying back.
• Wang Qiu'er demanded another round, and Qian Chaoguang put away his weapon and Martial Soul before challenging her to a contest of strength.

• Huo Yutong invited the new Shrek team to a meal she would cook, while Wang Dong eagerly tried to join them.
• Bei Bei declined the invitation and said the Tang Sect team would gather at Taotie Restaurant with Little Ya.

Huo Yutong hosted a meal that helped Dai Loli and Qiu'er grow closer to the Shrek team, whose members then spent two months improving through intensive combat training. As the team prepared to travel to Mingdu, Qian Chaoguang learned Mu En had only ten days before his soul would collapse and proposed searching for Lovesick Heartbreak Red to save him.

• Qian Chaoguang explained that Taotie Restaurant was his business and that Huo Yutong's former cooking assistants worked there, so the group went to their old dining place instead.
• Huo Yutong's meal helped Dai Loli and Qiu'er fit in with the team, though Dai Loli and Dai Huabin continued to resent each other.

• Qian Chaoguang convened a Sea God Pavilion Meeting and warned participating sects and academies that the Sun Moon Empire was plotting trouble before the competition in Mingdu.
• Qian Chaoguang's Holy Healing could not halt Mu En's worsening condition, and Mu En said he would merge with the Golden Ancient Tree when his soul began to fail.
• Qian Chaoguang urged Mu En to wait for Lovesick Heartbreak Red, hoping it would buy him time for Qian Chaoguang to become strong enough to save him.

Qian Chaoguang revealed the secrets he had hidden from Mu En, and Electrolux offered Mu En two risky ways to survive. Mu En rejected both options and shut Qian Chaoguang out, determined not to use the Lovesick Heartbreak Red on himself.

• Qian Chaoguang explained that he knew where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and Lovesick Heartbreak Red could be found, then warned Mu En that the truth might endanger his fragile soul.
• Mu En signed Qian Chaoguang's Soul Contract, allowing Qian Chaoguang to reveal Tang San's hidden contingencies and answer Mu En's questions about his powers and companions.
• Electrolux manifested before Mu En and described a Black Knight Reincarnation ritual and a dangerous symbiosis with the Golden Ancient Tree as alternatives to Mu En's planned fusion.
• Mu En refused both survival options, saying the Lovesick Heartbreak Red should be saved for Qian Chaoguang or Xiao Tong.
• Mu En used his power to force Qian Chaoguang out and closed the Golden Ancient Tree door against him.

Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong reached Sunset Forest to find the Lovesick Heartbreak Red and save Mu En, but Qian Chaoguang revealed that Tang San had concealed the Poison Classic and poisoned the forest to protect the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Huo Yutong was shaken by the revelation, then began connecting it to questions she had carried for years as the search remained unfinished.

• Electrolux praised Mu En's rationality, then returned to Qian Chaoguang's Sea of Consciousness as Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong hurried toward Sunset Forest to find the Lovesick Heartbreak Red before Mu En's body failed.
• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong reached Sunset Forest and found the Bi Lin Seven Absolute Poison that Tang San had cultivated to guard the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Qian Chaoguang told Huo Yutong that Tang San had kept the Poison Classic inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and explained why he had avoided joining the Tang Sect.
• Huo Yutong was overwhelmed by the collapse of her image of Tang San and asked to be alone, so Qian Chaoguang stopped for the night.
• Huo Yutong woke later that night without signs of mental instability and began connecting Qian Chaoguang's past actions to the questions she had struggled to understand.

Huo Yutong learned why Qian Chaoguang had placed her in the Tang Sect, then joined the Undead Legion’s ruling network and took over much of its management. The two traveled into Sunset Forest to reach the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where they fought sentient vines in the poisonous miasma.

• Qian Chaoguang admitted that he had made Huo Yutong a Tang Sect disciple to protect her from his future conflict with Tang San, and she insisted that she wanted to stand beside him.
• Electrolux connected Huo Yutong as an external node in the Undead Legion’s ruling system, giving her authority beneath Qian Chaoguang and responsibility for managing the Undead Subplane.
• Huo Yutong took charge of subplane production and the Pixiu Merchant Guild’s Soul Tool work, relieving Qian Chaoguang and Nana of much of their administrative burden.
• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong traveled deeper into Sunset Forest, collected frozen poison-miasma powder, and found the deadly Bi Lin flowers surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong descended into the poisonous valley and fought off attacking vines with the Eight-Point Light Wheels and the Dark Gold Terror Claw.

Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong reached the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and tricked Aromatic Silk Beauty into giving them the Poison Classic. Youyou then set them a test to prove they were Tang San’s descendants, and the chapter ended as she presented the first herb for them to eat.

• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong escaped the poisonous clouds and discovered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and its rare plants.
• Qian Chaoguang recognized Aromatic Silk Beauty and approached it with Huo Yutong while staying alert to the surrounding plant-type Soul Beasts.
• Qian Chaoguang persuaded Youyou that Tang San was doing well in the God Realm, and Youyou produced the Poison Classic.
• Qian Chaoguang secretly recorded the Poison Classic before Youyou refused to hand over the original without proof of descent and a test.
• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong agreed to take the test, and Youyou selected an emerald-green herb with three white leaves for Huo Yutong.

Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong reached the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and met Youyou, the Aromatic Silk Beauty guarding the Poison Classic. After Qian Chaoguang persuaded Youyou that Tang San was doing well, she agreed to test them, and the chapter ended as she brought out an herb for them to eat.

• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong descended through the poisonous clouds and discovered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and its abundant immortal herbs.
• Qian Chaoguang identified Youyou, the Aromatic Silk Beauty, and approached her with Huo Yutong to ask for the Poison Classic.
• Youyou recognized their connection to the Ice Eye and said they had to prove they were Tang San's descendants and pass a test to receive the book.
• Qian Chaoguang secretly recorded the Poison Classic's contents while telling Youyou that Tang San had become a God King.
• Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong accepted Youyou's test, and she used a purple light to retrieve an emerald-green herb with three white leaves.

Huo Yutong and Qian Chaoguang received two Immortal Herbs from Youxiang Qiluo, and Huo Yutong used Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew to advance her Mental Power and awaken her Body Martial Soul a second time. Her newly enhanced Spirit Eye briefly revealed Qian Chaoguang’s divine Authority, nearly draining her Mental Power, so he resolved to protect those around him from it.

• Qian Chaoguang explained Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew’s effects, and Huo Yutong consumed it under Youxiang Qiluo’s direction.
• Youxiang Qiluo gave Qian Chaoguang the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum after he explained that he had come to find Lovesick Heartbreak Red to save someone important.
• Qian Chaoguang stored the herb instead of eating it, explaining that he planned to use it later when his body could benefit from its medicinal power.
• Huo Yutong refined Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, advanced Purple Demon Eye to the vast expanse realm, and completed her Body Martial Soul Second Awakening.
• Huo Yutong’s Spirit Eye briefly exposed Qian Chaoguang’s divine Authority, repeatedly flooding her with incomprehensible knowledge and draining more than half her Mental Power before he shielded it.
• Qian Chaoguang showed Huo Yutong her changed eyes in a mirror and told her that her Body Martial Soul Second Awakening had reached at least Silver Grade.

Huo Yutong forcibly erased her White Tiger double pupils, choosing not to keep a trait she no longer wanted, while Qian Chaoguang healed her and worried over her recklessness. Youxiang Qiluo set up a strength test against Infernal Delicate Apricot, and Qian Chaoguang began fighting her avatar as the chapter ended with her attack descending.

• Huo Yutong saw her newly formed double pupils and used her Mental Power to merge them into a single pupil, drawing bloody tears as Qian Chaoguang healed her.
• Huo Yutong told Qian Chaoguang that she did not want the double pupils and that having him was enough, while he scolded her for acting impulsively.
• Youxiang Qiluo explained that the second test required the pair to prove their strength, then summoned Infernal Delicate Apricot as their opponent.
• Qian Chaoguang annoyed Infernal Delicate Apricot with a joke, prompting her to set a duel against an equally strong avatar empowered by the Blazing Yang Spring.
• Qian Chaoguang entered the cleared area, revealed his golden Holy Light and Xuan Hui Blade, and faced the fiery water pillar Infernal Delicate Apricot hurled at him.

Qian Chaoguang defeated the Infernal Delicate Apricot’s flaming Xiao Wu with his Divine Wrath blade technique, which briefly invoked God War, but the examiner refused to accept the result. Qian Chaoguang responded by summoning the Undead Legion throughout the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

• Qian Chaoguang endured the Blazing Yang Spring’s attacks behind layered Holy Guardian shields as the Infernal Delicate Apricot empowered her flaming Xiao Wu avatar to attack him.
• When the shields broke, Qian Chaoguang used Divine Wrath to split flaming Xiao Wu in two, briefly invoking God War and terrifying the Infernal Delicate Apricot.
• Qian Chaoguang stopped God War because it consumed Faith Power rapidly and demanded that the Infernal Delicate Apricot confirm he had passed the trial.
• The Infernal Delicate Apricot rejected his victory, claiming her avatar was not fully killed and that an unknown force had interfered, while Huo Yutong moved beside Qian Chaoguang.
• Qian Chaoguang left the examination area and summoned three Bone Dragons, thirty-seven Death Knights, and eighteen Gates of the Undead across the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Qian Chaoguang sent the Undead Legion into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, overpowering the immortal herbs and forcing Infernal Delicate Apricot and Youxiang Qiluo to surrender Blazing Resin and the Poison Classic. As Huo Yutong read the book, she concluded Tang San had treated the well as his private possession, strengthening her resolve to oppose him.

• Qian Chaoguang cut off the herbs’ connection to the springs and ordered Dragon One to destroy Flame Xiao Wu after Infernal Delicate Apricot threatened him with heavenly punishment.
• Youyou apologized for Infernal Delicate Apricot, who admitted defeat and surrendered her Blazing Resin to Qian Chaoguang as compensation.
• Qian Chaoguang made Aromatic Silk Beauty hand over the Poison Classic and intimidated it with a Rank Nine Fixed Soul Cannon Shell when it threatened mutual destruction.
• Huo Yutong read the Poison Classic under the Liches’ and Zombies’ protection and found its contents troublingly absent from Tang Sect records.
• Huo Yutong inferred from the book’s preface and Youxiang Qiluo’s account that Tang San had treated the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as his private possession.

Qian Chaoguang stripped the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of herbs and dived into its Yang Spring to search for the Water Fire Dragon King's soul bones. He found the Fire Dragon King's remains and a torso bone, but a barrier of flames and divine power stopped him from reaching it.

• Qian Chaoguang ordered Dragon One to guard Huo Yutong and take the non-awakened herbs while leaving seeds, then rebuked Youxiang Qiluo for defending Tang San's theft of the garden.
• Qian Chaoguang tested both springs, then jumped into the Yang Spring to search for the Water Fire Dragon King's God-level soul bones.
• Qian Chaoguang reached the bottom of the Yang Spring and sensed a huge hollow structure beneath the high-energy silt.
• Qian Chaoguang dug through the silt and entered the Fire Dragon King's chest cavity, where the dragon's remains had crystallized.
• Qian Chaoguang found the Fire Dragon King Torso Bone and its crimson bone wings inside the skull, but a barrier of flames and divine power blocked his way.
