Chapter Summaries

The Sea Witch prepared a mind-controlled stand-in to impersonate Seahorse for the Sea God Empire’s coronation. Meanwhile, a coalition gathered to sabotage the ceremony as Lin Rong’s group sailed toward Sea God Island to loot it before heading to Sea God City.

• The Sea Witch presented an old man whose appearance matched Seahorse and explained that disguise and Sea Demon Sound would keep the impersonation secure.
• A group of people from the continent’s great forces met in a hidden cavern and agreed to follow their plan to disrupt the coronation.
• A Benti Sect member rejected the other conspirators’ warning, and the group waited for dawn.
• Lin Rong told his companions they would reach Sea God Island before dawn and reassured Ning Rongrong that they could still reach Sea God City during the unrest.
• Oscar comforted Ning Rongrong about Bone Douluo Gu Rong’s safety, and Lin Rong confirmed that he planned to go to Sea God City after their looting.

Lin Rong and his companions arrived on Sea God Island and found it deserted, so he split up to search it. At the Sea God Temple, he destroyed the source of Sea God's Light and had the Nine Bend Vine Dragon pull the Sea God's Trident free, leaving the Sea God's inheritance without its divine artifact.

• Lin Rong sensed that Sea God Island had no one on it and split into two groups, sending Old Butler with Ning Rongrong and Oscar while he headed for the Sea God Temple.
• Lin Rong flew to the Island Within the Island and destroyed the Sea God's Light's leyline hub, causing the light to disappear and pillars near the temple to collapse.
• Lin Rong entered the Sea God Temple and woke the Nine Bend Vine Dragon, then boosted it with his soul skills and domain.
• The Nine Bend Vine Dragon pulled the Sea God's Trident, which weighed one hundred and eight thousand jin, from the Sea God Platform.
• Lin Rong took the trident and decided to give it to Xu Pan to use.

Lin Rong retrieved the Sea God's Trident and several Deep Sea Silver Pillars while Lou Gao was tasked with investigating how to use the rare metal. Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong, Oscar, and Old Butler Yu Yuan finished looting Sea Dragon City, and Lin Rong joined them as dawn approached so they could head to Sea God City for the coronation ceremony.

• Lin Rong stored the Sea God's Trident separately from the Heart of the Sea God and left the Deep Sea Silver in Lou Gao's hands to study.
• Old Butler Yu Yuan, Ning Rongrong, and Oscar reached Sea Dragon City after visiting the other six cities of Sea God Island.
• Oscar collected Sea Dragon City's inherited Soul Bones, precious Lead Boxes, and sea treasures, nearly filling Ning Rongrong's hundred-plus storage Soul Tools.
• Ning Rongrong wondered whether Lin Rong had finished his work before the Sea God City coronation ceremony began at dawn.
• Lin Rong pulled several dozen Deep Sea Silver Pillars from the seabed, then appeared beside Old Butler Yu Yuan and told him they would head to Sea God City.

Chen Haitian prepared for his coronation as the founding emperor of the Sea God Empire while fearing that an ominous premonition threatened both the ceremony and his inheritance. Meanwhile, three Titled Douluo gathered near the plaza as powerful sea spirit beasts guarded the waters against possible saboteurs.

• Chen Haitian watched Sea God City awaken and worried that the coronation might be sabotaged.
• The Sacrifice Elder urged Chen Haitian to focus on the future and reminded him that he remained the Sea God's inheritor regardless of the ceremony's outcome.
• Gu Rong, Dugu Bo, and Xu Xuchen gathered in a private room overlooking the coronation plaza.
• Sea spirit beasts gathered offshore to deter saboteurs, while the possibility that Benti Sect would attack them for their spirit rings and soul bones alarmed the assembled forces.

Gu Rong, Dugu Bo, and Xu Xuchen discussed whether to target a Sea God Seven Sacred Pillars Douluo during the Coronation Ceremony, but abandoned the plan when the risks outweighed the reward. Meanwhile, Sea Dragon Douluo arranged to conceal the real Sea Horse’s absence and keep the impostor protected near Bo Saixi and the emperor.

• Dugu Bo told Gu Rong that Guang Yue and Ghostly had secretly reached level 97, making them eligible to join Spirit Hall’s Worship Hall, and Gu Rong understood why Bibi Dong had not sent them on the mission.
• Xu Xuchen proposed that the three of them kill a Seven Sacred Pillars Douluo and compete for the victim’s Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, but Gu Rong chose to wait for an opportunity and Dugu Bo refused to join.
• Xu Xuchen dropped the proposal after Gu Rong and Dugu Bo declined, agreeing that surviving Sea God City mattered more than obtaining a Soul Bone.
• Sea Dragon Douluo proposed having the person impersonating Sea Horse stand in for him beside Bo Saixi during the Coronation Ceremony.
• Sea Witch agreed to use Heart Separation Control to keep the impostor beside the emperor and within Bo Saixi’s protection, concealing Sea Horse’s impersonation.

Chen Haitian’s coronation procession crossed Sea God City as hidden forces prepared to attack at Sea God Plaza. Bo Saixi watched for danger while a sect master readied Bloodthirsty Secret Medicine to provoke the gathered Sea Spirit Beasts.

• Chen Haitian rode through Sea God City in a palanquin with Bo Saixi and the Sacrifice Elder as the people cheered his coronation.
• Gu Rong, Dugu Bo, and Xu Xuchen watched the procession and suspected Chen Haitian had fallen in love with Bo Saixi.
• Bo Saixi used her spiritual power to monitor the area and expected the hidden invaders to strike at Sea God Plaza.
• A middle-aged man in dark green robes watched Bo Saixi, then returned to his men and confirmed their preparations.
• The sect master said he planned to use the Bloodthirsty Secret Medicine to draw the Sea Spirit Beasts into conflict over Soul Bones.

Black-clad conspirators scattered Bloodthirsty Secret Medicine into the sea while the coronation ceremony continued without incident. The medicine reached the gathered Sea Spirit Beasts, drove them into a frenzy, and plunged them into bloody slaughter.

• Chen Haitian and the Pillar Guardian Douluo stayed alert as his coronation ceremony proceeded smoothly at Sea God Plaza.
• Dugu Bo, Gu Rong, and Xu Xuchen decided to wait for the Benti Sect or another faction to draw Bo Saixi's attention before acting.
• Three black-clad men spread Bloodthirsty Secret Medicine into the sea west of Sea God City and let the currents carry it toward the Sea Spirit Beasts.
• The Sea Spirit Beasts absorbed the medicine without noticing it and began to lose their reason to bloodlust.
• The Hundred Thousand Year Sea Spirit Beasts realized the seawater was tainted, but other Sea Spirit Beasts had already begun attacking one another, setting off a slaughter that dyed the sea red.

Hundreds of thousands of drugged Sea Spirit Beasts raised a tsunami against Sea God City during Chen Haitian’s coronation, and Bo Saixi struggled to hold it back. After Xiao Bai revealed that someone had poisoned the sea, the Benti Sect Master and his men stepped forward and admitted they were responsible.

• A blood-red tsunami filled with Soul Rings, Soul Bones, and Sea Spirit Beasts raced toward Sea God City and interrupted Chen Haitian’s coronation.
• Bo Saixi summoned the Sea God Martial Soul and stopped the waves at the western gate, but the Benti Sect Master warned that the combined Soul Power of the beasts would eventually overwhelm her.
• Xiao Bai told Bo Saixi that someone had drugged the sea and urged her to find the culprit and obtain an antidote, but another beast attacked her and she lost control.
• Bo Saixi ordered Sea Dragon and the other Seven Sacred Pillars’ Pillar Guardian Douluo to find whoever administered the drug.
• The Benti Sect Master and his three black-clothed men revealed themselves and said they had come out on their own.

Bo Saixi tried to turn the Sea Spirit Masters against Du Huang by promising them first choice of six Soul Bones, but he revealed his extraordinary strength and Soul Ring configuration instead. The chapter explained that Du Huang had come to Sea God City seeking a rare Torso Bone to complete his Soul Bone set and pursue a breakthrough to level 99.

• The Benti Sect Master tempted the plaza’s Sea Spirit Masters with the Soul Bones in the tsunami waves, and they rushed toward the western city gate.
• Bo Saixi stopped the crowd and offered the first six suitable Soul Bones to anyone who could defeat the man responsible for the disaster.
• Dugu Bo and the others identified the green-robed man as Du Huang, and he revealed a Body Martial Soul and seven black and two red Spirit Rings.
• The chapter established that Du Huang was a peak level 98 Title Douluo with five standard Soul Bones and an External Soul Bone, and that he needed a compatible Torso Bone to complete his set.
• After learning that the Sea God Empire’s Coronation Ceremony would draw many Hundred Thousand Year Sea Spirit Beasts to Sea God City, Du Huang went there and had three Sect Elders dose the beasts with the Bloodthirsty Secret Medicine.

Du Huang and Bo Saixi clashed as a tsunami devastated Sea God City, while Lin Rong and his companions watched from hiding. With the city submerged in blood and the Coronation Ceremony failed, Chen Haitian believed Bo Saixi could still defeat the Benti Sect leader.

• Du Huang challenged the Sea Spirit Masters to claim the Soul Bones and prepared to send the tsunami into the city.
• Bo Saixi abandoned her defense against the tsunami and struck Du Huang, but she was driven back farther than he was.
• The unimpeded tsunami destroyed Sea God City's western wall and flooded the city as Oscar urged Lin Rong to intervene.
• Lin Rong refused to act, arguing that the city's Sea Spirit Master residents had participated in the invasion, and said he would wait before claiming the Soul Bones.
• A sea of blood submerged Sea God City, and Chen Haitian reflected that the Coronation Ceremony had failed and the Sea God Divine Artifact was likely lost.
• Chen Haitian watched Bo Saixi face Du Huang and believed she could still win despite losing their first clash of strength.

Bo Saixi transformed with her Sea God True Body and fought Du Huang in the flooded Sea God City, but he countered her attack with his Blood Nether Thorn. She tried to summon the Sea God's Trident, only to discover it was missing.

• Bo Saixi used her Sea God True Body and challenged Du Huang to kneel before the Sea God.
• Du Huang charged at Bo Saixi, who launched a water droplet that pursued him through a spiritual power lock.
• Du Huang pierced the droplet with his Blood Nether Thorn, weakening the attack and draining the thorn's power.
• Bo Saixi attempted several times to summon the Sea God's Trident, but it did not appear.

Du Huang defeated Bo Saixi after her Sea God True Body failed to answer her summons, then searched the blood sea for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast while Bo Saixi withdrew to the Imperial Palace. A Spirit Hall Titled Douluo witnessed the fight and recognized Benti Sect as a major threat.

• The Sea God's Trident faintly responded to Bo Saixi's Martial Soul Avatar, but its connection was too weak to free it from Lin Rong's Soul Tool space.
• Du Huang struck Bo Saixi in the face while she stood distracted, and the injury forced the Sea God phantom to separate from her body and end her Sea God True Body.
• Bo Saixi realized she had lost control of her body during the Martial Soul Avatar and, despite her severe injuries, chose to withdraw rather than risk a fatal counterattack from Du Huang.
• Du Huang told Bo Saixi he only wanted a Hundred-Thousand-Year Torso Bone and searched the blood sea for suitable Soul Beasts.
• Bo Saixi ordered Sea Dragon and the other Seven Sacred Pillars' Pillar Guardian Douluo to take His Majesty back to the palace.
• A Spirit Hall Titled Douluo judged Benti Sect a threat to Spirit Hall after seeing Du Huang defeat Bo Saixi.

As Titled Douluo and other spirit masters fought over soul bones in the sea of blood, Lin Rong planned to hunt two powerful Hundred Thousand Year Sea Spirit Beasts before their frenzy faded. He and Old Butler waited for an Ice Fang Sea Lion King and a Void Jellyfish King to weaken each other, while Oscar held the Heart of the Sea God.

• A black-clad Titled Douluo joined the soul-bone battle, worsening the chaos among the sea spirit beasts and human fighters.
• Oscar asked Lin Rong if they should seize the soul bones, but Ning Rongrong warned that taking them all would require silencing every outsider, including powerful figures such as Bo Saixi and the Benti Sect elder.
• Lin Rong sensed the beasts' bloodthirsty frenzy beginning to fade and decided to hunt several Hundred Thousand Year Sea Spirit Beasts before they broke free.
• Lin Rong gave Oscar the Heart of the Sea God and took Ning Rongrong and Old Butler toward an empty stretch of sea where two great beasts were fighting.
• Lin Rong recognized the beasts as an Ice Fang Sea Lion King and a Void Jellyfish King, then waited for them to weaken before attacking with Old Butler.

Lin Rong and Old Butler prepared to hunt the Ice Fang Sea Lion King and Void Jellyfish King, who were still partly controlled by Benti Sect’s drug. The hunt began as the beasts noticed the humans and turned their hostility toward them.

• Lin Rong tracked Du Huang and found that the Benti Sect sect master was searching elsewhere in Sea God City.
• Lin Rong assigned the Void Jellyfish King to himself and the Ice Fang Sea Lion King to Old Butler, who summoned his White Jade Star Disk and gave Ning Rongrong and Oscar protective stars.
• Lin Rong replenished the Heart of the Sea God, expanding its invisibility barrier to cover both Sea Spirit Beasts.
• The Ice Fang Sea Lion King and Void Jellyfish King sensed Lin Rong and the others, stopped fighting each other, and turned on the humans.
• Lin Rong realized the Void Jellyfish King had chosen him as its target and prepared to fight for its Soul Bone.

Lin Rong fought the Void Jellyfish King while the Old Butler dealt with the Ice Fang Sea Lion King, relying on his spatial abilities, poison resistance, and the Nine Bend Vine Dragon to counter the jellyfish. The Void Jellyfish King prepared a powerful poison attack aimed at Lin Rong, but a blue-gold spear pierced through its body before it could fire.

• Lin Rong sent the Old Butler to fight the Ice Fang Sea Lion King and faced the Void Jellyfish King himself.
• Lin Rong transformed his Soul Power into space and wind elements, activated his enhancements, and had Xiao Qing restrain the Void Jellyfish King with a Dragon Soul Clone.
• The Void Jellyfish King escaped the clone’s confinement with a phasing skill, then split into smaller forms and fired thousands of poison needles.
• The Dragon Soul Clone created a cyan whirlwind that shredded the poison needles, while its scales withstood the attacks that reached it.
• The Void Jellyfish King gathered its copies into a giant poison needle and aimed it at Lin Rong, but a blue-gold spear pierced through its body before it could attack.

Lin Rong killed the Void Jellyfish King while Old Butler defeated the Ice Fang Sea Lion King, and the group decided to search Sea God City for more Soul Bones. Their search led them toward a battle where Gu Rong, Dugu Bo, and Xu Xuchen struggled to defeat a sea urchin that had swallowed a Soul Bone.

• Lin Rong killed the Void Jellyfish King with the Emperor Sacred Spear and dispersed its Soul Ring after taking its Soul Bone.
• Old Butler used Three-Eyed Demon Breaking Divine Light to immobilize the Ice Fang Sea Lion King, then shattered it with Cold Moon Starlight.
• Lin Rong reunited with Old Butler, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong, and they decided to use the Heart of the Sea God's invisibility barrier to collect more Soul Bones.
• Ning Rongrong detected a direction with many Soul Bones, though she could not determine their ages.
• Gu Rong, Dugu Bo, and Xu Xuchen struggled to break through a sea urchin's defenses after it swallowed a Soul Bone, while Dugu Bo angrily demanded that it spit it out.

Dugu Bo, Gu Rong, and Xu Xuchen fought a sea urchin spirit beast over two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones until the Deep Sea Giant Whale Emperor ordered the beasts to retreat. One bone escaped with a mysterious thief, whom Lin Rong recognized as Ji Xiang and pursued into the void.

• Dugu Bo, Gu Rong, and Xu Xuchen attacked the sea urchin spirit beast but could not pierce its defenses.
• The Deep Sea Giant Whale Emperor ordered the sea spirit beasts to retreat, and the sea urchin spat out the two soul bones to escape.
• Xu Xuchen seized one soul bone, while a fair hand reached through space and took the other just before Gu Rong could grab it.
• Gu Rong shouted at the unseen thief, and Lin Rong recognized Ji Xiang's spatial and light-and-death auras from inside the Heart of the Sea God's invisibility cover.
• Lin Rong told Old Butler he would be right back and chased Ji Xiang into the void, while Old Butler asked Oscar for the Heart of the Sea God.

Luo Minghua and Ji Xiang escaped through the void with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, but Lin Rong tracked them down using space divine power and a Space Gate. Lin Rong captured Ji Xiang in a Banyan Forest, while Luo Minghua fled back into the void and left him behind.

• Luo Minghua admired the water-attribute Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone he had found in the void, while Ji Xiang urged him to leave before Bone Douluo Gu Rong could catch them.
• Electrolux sensed Lin Rong’s hostile killing intent, and Luo Minghua grabbed Ji Xiang and fled through the void with the Soul Bone.
• Lin Rong entered the void, refined most of his Soul Power into space divine power, and opened a Space Gate using Ji Xiang’s aura as a guide.
• Lin Rong caught Luo Minghua and Ji Xiang as they collided with the gate, dragged them into a remote forest, and trapped them in a Banyan Forest with his sixth Soul Skill.
• Lin Rong greeted Ji Xiang and Electrolux, while Luo Minghua activated the Divine Artifact and escaped into the void, abandoning Ji Xiang.

Lin Rong confronted Electrolux and demanded the God of Light Divine Position Inheritance carried by Ji Xiang. Electrolux sacrificed his remaining Divine Sense in a forbidden spell that engulfed Lin Rong, leaving Ji Xiang grieving in the unchanged Banyan Forest.

• Electrolux emerged from Ji Xiang and recognized Lin Rong’s strength, while Lin Rong admitted he wanted Ji Xiang’s God of Light inheritance.
• Lin Rong’s Vine Dragon Prison Heaven Array blocked Electrolux from escaping to the Undead Demi-plane, and Lin Rong explained the inheritance suited someone important to him.
• Lin Rong asked Ji Xiang to decide whether to surrender the inheritance, but Ji Xiang remained dazed after his friend had abandoned him.
• Electrolux decided for Ji Xiang, merged with him, and burned his Divine Sense to unleash a forbidden death-and-light spell against Lin Rong.
• Ji Xiang cried out for Electrolux after the spell, then collapsed in grief without noticing that the Banyan Forest remained intact.

After surviving Electrolux’s forbidden death magic with his Heart of the Banyan Wood, Lin Rong returned to Ji Xiang and accepted the God of Light inheritance from the dying boy. He buried Ji Xiang, leaving the inheritance and its Thorn Crown in Lin Rong’s hands.

• Lin Rong revived through Flower Transfer, Wood Grafting and learned that Oscar and Ning Rongrong had been sent back toward Heaven Dou City.
• Lin Rong and the Old Butler traveled to the formation, where Ji Xiang remained trapped after Electrolux’s plan failed.
• Ji Xiang said the God of Light inheritance had ruined his life, then stabbed himself with the Thorn Crown and gave it to Lin Rong.
• Lin Rong accepted the Thorn Crown and the God of Light inheritance, then asked the Old Butler to prepare a coffin for Ji Xiang.
• The Old Butler buried Ji Xiang, and Lin Rong placed a white flower at his grave.
