Chapter Summaries

Lin Yi named the power gained from changing Douluo I’s history Merit and felt it strengthen his Heaven and Earth Chess Game. He entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where Tang San’s sealed divine sense clone awakened, and Lin Yi faced it without retreating.

• Lin Yi realized that influencing Tang San’s fate had earned him a lasting power far greater than faith, which he named Merit.
• Lin Yi concluded that the protagonist was the key to changing history and considered focusing on Tang Wulin’s fate as well.
• Lin Yi entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, passed through the Jade Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers’ poison, and scattered the poison cloud.
• A restriction activated and Tang San’s divine sense clone began to form, accusing Lin Yi of seeking the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• As viewers feared for Lin Yi, he released his spiritual power across the valley, and time seemed to freeze.

Lin Yi used his Spiritual Domain to turn back time, collect every treasure in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well valley, and evade Tang San's divine sense clone. After time returned to normal, Lin Yi reappeared on the Far North Ice Plains, having stepped back into the present from the past.

• Lin Yi froze the scene and reversed time while remaining unaffected, then gathered the valley's spirit herbs and Immortal Herbs into another space.
• Lin Yi took both the mature Lovesick Heartbreak Red and the one still forming, leaving the valley bare.
• Lin Yi let time return to normal and vanished as Tang San's divine sense clone appeared at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Tang San found the empty valley, grew furious, and searched unsuccessfully for Lin Yi.
• Lin Yi reappeared on the Far North Ice Plains after completing his return from the past to the present.

Lin Yi explained how his Spiritual Domain, Seal the Game and Return to Play, let him revisit a frozen moment and collect the treasures around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well without disturbing powerful figures’ fates. The Heavenly Screen’s witnesses struggled to comprehend his ability, while Ning Fengzhi began considering how the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could track Tang San and seize the Sea God Inheritance first.

• Lin Yi explained that changing powerful figures’ predetermined fates would burden or even break his Spiritual Domain, while his limited changes to treasure locations carried little cost.
• Lin Yi revealed that he had also teleported away at the final instant, giving him a powerful means of escaping even opponents who could reverse time.
• Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Bibi Dong reacted with amazement and concern as they watched Lin Yi’s display on the Heavenly Screen.
• Yu Xiaogang felt embarrassed because Lin Yi’s chess-based Spiritual Domain contradicted his earlier dismissal of Chess Martial Souls.
• Tang Hao reassured Tang San that Lin Yi’s ability posed no threat to the future Sea God and urged him to cultivate quickly.
• Ning Fengzhi wondered how Tang San became the Sea God, and Gu Rong proposed tracking him and intercepting the Sea God Inheritance before he obtained it.

Ning Fengzhi rejected Gu Rong’s plan to attack Tang San and Tang Hao, but ordered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to watch for them while resentment toward the Clear Sky Sect grew. Lin Yi gained a surge of accomplishments, then searched the Far North for the Ice Empress and Snow Empress, locating both.

• Gu Rong urged Ning Fengzhi to target Tang San and seize the Sea God Inheritance, blaming Tang Hao and the Clear Sky Sect for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s recent troubles.
• Ning Fengzhi decided against directly attacking Tang San and Tang Hao, instead ordering people to keep watch for them.
• Lin Yi noticed a large increase in his accomplishments after using Seal the Game and Return to Play, indicating that he had changed Tang San’s fate more substantially.
• Yun Ming and other Soul Masters in the Dragon King era recognized Seal the Game and Return to Play as Lin Yi’s Spiritual Domain and marveled at its power.
• Lin Yi searched the Far North’s Core Circle, found the Ice Empress, and then located the Snow Empress after a more careful search.

Lin Yi confronted the Snow Empress in the Extreme North and had Tian Meng explain his plan to help create a god. The revelation that Tian Meng could grant a new Martial Soul shocked Soul Masters watching through the Heavenly Screen, while Ning Fengzhi wondered whether his sect could use that power.

• The Snow Empress sensed Lin Yi in the Extreme North Core Circle, confronted him, and recognized that fighting him could be fatal.
• Lin Yi told the Snow Empress that her end was near, then summoned Tian Meng to explain why he had come for her.
• Tian Meng revealed that he had sacrificed himself to Lin Yi and described his plan involving a Wisdom Soul Ring and creating a god.
• Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, and Chen Xin discussed whether Tian Meng could give a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master a new Martial Soul.
• Ning Fengzhi doubted that anyone from his sect could withstand Tian Meng's Million-Year Soul Ring, even if they learned how to absorb a Soul Ring beyond their level.

Lin Yi tried to persuade the Snow Empress to join his plan, but she refused, so he threatened her with the Ice Empress’s fate. Meanwhile, Bibi Dong became determined to find and cultivate Tian Meng, and Lin Yi sensed another gain of merit.

• Yu Xiaogang warned Tang Hao and Tang San that Bibi Dong might be able to seek a million-year Soul Ring before Tang San could, prompting Tang Hao to reveal his killing intent.
• Bibi Dong decided to find the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice Cavern and raise Tian Meng’s cultivation to a million years, despite Yue Guan and Gui Mei’s misgivings.
• Lin Yi sensed that he had gained merit from the Douluo I era and considered ways to profit from the more advanced Douluo Dalu III era.
• Tian Meng invited the Snow Empress to join his plan to create a god, but she refused to live beneath another.
• Lin Yi revealed that he wanted a Snow Lady Martial Soul and threatened that the Ice Empress might die if the Snow Empress refused to become a Wisdom Soul Ring.
