Chapter Summaries

Meng Qianqiu awakened the Manggu Vermilion Toad and Seven Kill Sword as Twin Martial Souls and displayed innate full Soul Power, while learning about his family’s hidden lineage and realizing he had been reborn in an earlier era of the Douluo World.

After awakening his Martial Soul and memories of his previous life, Meng Qianqiu considered the dangers facing his family and resolved to grow stronger. Meng Zhongqi gave him the family's meditation method, which led Meng Qianqiu to consider combining it with two breathing techniques from his past life.

• Meng Zhongqi told Meng Qianqiu to keep the Seven Kill Sword Sect inheritance secret until he was strong enough to learn about it.
• Meng Qianqiu reflected on the dangerous balance between Spirit Hall, the sects, and the empires, and concluded that strength was essential to controlling his fate.
• Meng Zhongqi found Meng Qianqiu on the mountain, gave him a coat, and handed him the Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad Meditation Method.
• Meng Qianqiu studied the method and judged it inefficient because it refined Soul Power without providing ways to refine the body and Qi.
• Meng Qianqiu decided to try combining the meditation method with the Golden Toad Qi-Locking Method and the Great Toad Qi-Devouring Technique he remembered from his previous life.

Meng Qianqiu discovered that combining his Daoist inner-strengthening arts with food could rapidly improve his body and convert nourishment into Soul Power. He found rare Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue in the Meng Family’s vault and planned to save most of it for Meng Zhongqi, who had gone to hunt Soul Beasts.

• Meng Qianqiu practiced the Great Toad Qi-Eating Method, became extraordinarily hungry, and ate a basin of Soul Beast meat.
• Meng Qianqiu explained his hunger to Nangong Wan and Meng Zhongqi, then used the meat to cultivate Soul Power and strengthen his body.
• Meng Qianqiu reasoned that the Great Toad Qi-Eating Technique could improve poor conversion efficiency, and considered Whale Rubber a cheaper source of nourishment than Soul Beast meat.

• Meng Qianqiu decided to keep a little Whale Glue for himself and save the rest for Meng Zhongqi, planning to teach him the Great Toad Qi-Devouring Technique.
• Meng Qianqiu left the vault while Meng Zhongqi was away hunting Soul Beasts at Black Spirit Abyss.

• Meng Zhongqi traveled to Black Spirit Abyss and recalled his past battle with a Flame-Devouring Beast.
• Meng Zhongqi found a four-hundred-year Blazing Fire Demon Spider and froze it with his fifth Soul Skill, Withering of Ice.

• Meng Qianqiu killed the spider, absorbed its yellow Soul Ring, and endured its power and remnant soul.
• Meng Qianqiu awakened his first Soul Skill, Fire Roar, which increased his attributes and unleashed a burst of firelight and a shock wave.

After absorbing her first Soul Ring, Meng Qianqiu reached level eleven and discovered that her Manggu Vermilion Toad was an external Martial Soul with independent thought. Her grandfather Meng Zhongqi witnessed its formidable poison and warned her to conceal her twin Martial Souls, leaving her to learn poison techniques while relying on her Seven Kill Sword as well.

• Meng Qianqiu woke up at level eleven and found that her Manggu Vermilion Toad had become more lively after absorbing a four-hundred-year Soul Ring.
• Meng Qianqiu told Meng Zhongqi that the Manggu Vermilion Toad was an external Martial Soul that could fight independently and that she also possessed the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul.
• Meng Zhongqi warned Meng Qianqiu to keep her twin Martial Souls secret and told her to stay with him and learn poison.
• The Manggu Vermilion Toad spat out red mist that erased nearby life, and Meng Zhongqi recognized its extraordinary poison and called it a born king of all poisons.
• Meng Qianqiu said she had reached level eleven but felt her first Soul Ring was too young, while Meng Zhongqi reminded her that a four-hundred-year ring was already exceptional.

Meng Zhongqi explained why Meng Qianqiu would attend the Heaven Dou City Junior Soul Master Academy and shared his wary view of Spirit Hall’s power. Meng Qianqiu then claimed the family possessed heavenly treasures, showed his grandfather ten-thousand-year whale glue, and offered to teach him a technique to absorb its medicinal potency.

• Meng Zhongqi told Meng Qianqiu to stay home for a few months before entering the Heaven Dou City Junior Soul Master Academy, explaining that formal training and the empire-backed academy system were important.
• Meng Zhongqi described Spirit Hall as both a defender against beast tides and a force seeking influence over the two great empires, while Meng Qianqiu proposed that the Meng Family benefit from its rise.
• Meng Zhongqi said his rank eighty-eight soul power and declining health made reaching the Titled Douluo realm unlikely without a heavenly treasure.
• Meng Qianqiu told Meng Zhongqi that the family had heavenly treasures and that he knew the location of a peerless immortal herb.
• Meng Qianqiu presented ten-thousand-year whale glue, which Meng Zhongqi dismissed as a mere health supplement, and offered to teach him the Great Toad Qi-Devouring Technique so he could absorb its medicinal potency.

Meng Qianqiu had Meng Zhongqi consume ten-thousand-year whale glue, which raised his Soul Power and cleansed his body of its accumulated poisons. Meng Zhongqi revealed the Meng Family’s inherited Soul Bones and agreed to stockpile more whale glue while it remained undervalued.

• Meng Qianqiu roasted ten-thousand-year whale glue and urged Meng Zhongqi to swallow it and circulate the Great Toad Qi-Devouring Technique.
• Meng Zhongqi absorbed the glue’s medicinal power, raised his Soul Power to level 89, and found that it had saved him three years of cultivation.
• Meng Zhongqi explained that the Meng Family ancestor had been a Super Douluo and left behind inherited Soul Bones, five of which remained in his possession.
• Meng Zhongqi said the whale glue had cleansed his marrow, expelled the cold and fire poisons afflicting him, and given him a chance to live peacefully for fifty or sixty years.
• Meng Zhongqi praised the Great Toad Qi-Devouring Technique as a valuable family inheritance and agreed with Meng Qianqiu to stockpile ten-thousand-year whale glue.

Meng Zhongqi showed Meng Qianqiu the Meng Family’s inherited Soul Bones and explained their history, then revealed he would absorb them himself after his illness was cured. He planned to break through to Titled Douluo so he could protect Meng Qianqiu, whose Innate Full Soul Power had made him a target for powerful factions.

• Meng Zhongqi took Meng Qianqiu into the ancestral hall and showed him five inherited Soul Bones, including the family’s rare hundred-thousand-year Mirror Shadow Beast skull bone.
• Meng Zhongqi recounted how the Meng Family’s thirteenth head reached Level 97 and possessed a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring and Soul Bone.
• Meng Zhongqi explained that he had declined to absorb the inherited Soul Bones for years because his cold and fire poisons made his survival uncertain and he wanted to save resources for his descendants.
• Meng Qianqiu learned that his treatment had expelled Meng Zhongqi’s poisons, giving his grandfather a chance to break through to Titled Douluo and live for decades longer.
• Meng Zhongqi told Meng Qianqiu that his Innate Full Soul Power would attract covetous attention, and that reaching Titled Douluo would give the Meng Family the strength to protect him.

Meng Zhongqi used ten-thousand-year whale glue to break through to Titled Douluo, and Nangong Wan reached Quasi-Soul Douluo with the same treasure. As they prepared to hunt for Soul Beasts for their new rings, Meng Qianqiu said he knew a place with suitable targets.

• Meng Zhongqi broke through from Level 89 to Level 90 and revealed that the cold and fire poisons in his body had been expelled.
• Meng Zhongqi gave Nangong Wan ten-thousand-year whale glue, and she broke through to Level 80 and grew younger.
• Nangong Wan recognized the whale glue’s value and urged Meng Zhongqi to begin Soul Hunting before others learned of their breakthroughs.
• Meng Zhongqi explained that they needed high-level Soul Beasts for their eighth and ninth rings, and Meng Qianqiu offered to lead them to a place with suitable beasts.

Meng Qianqiu persuaded his grandparents to search for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in Sunset Forest, hoping to secure the Medusa Queen and Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor as Soul Beasts. After three months of searching, they found the pair, and the Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor attacked Meng Zhongqi.

• Meng Qianqiu told Meng Zhongqi and Nangong Wan that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well held two rare, high-aged snake Soul Beasts, and convinced them to take him along on their Soul Hunting trip.
• Meng Qianqiu identified the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as a secret realm in Sunset Forest, and the three set out to find it.
• After three months and searches through dozens of volcanic craters, Meng Qianqiu recognized a poisonous-mist-shrouded crater as the likely location.
• Meng Zhongqi sensed powerful Soul Beasts ahead, and the Medusa Queen and Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor emerged from the poisonous mist.
• Meng Zhongqi ordered Nangong Wan to take Meng Qianqiu away, but the Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor lunged at him.

Meng Zhongqi used his Vermilion-Eyed Ice Toad's domain and Soul Skills to overpower the Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor and the Medusa Queen. As the Medusa Queen lay near death, Meng Zhongqi called Nangong Wan over to finish it, but she hesitated over absorbing its unusually high-age Soul Ring.

• Meng Zhongqi transformed with his seventh Soul Ring and revealed his Ice Prison Poison Swamp domain.
• The Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor attacked, but Meng Zhongqi's eighth Soul Skill wounded it with poisonous freezing rain.
• Meng Zhongqi reflected the snake's venom with Ice Refraction, then struck it with his Ice and Fire Poison Dragon Drill.
• The Medusa Queen joined the battle but was also quickly defeated by Meng Zhongqi.
• Meng Zhongqi called Nangong Wan to finish off the over-seventy-thousand-year-old Medusa Queen, and Nangong Wan questioned whether its Soul Ring was too old for her.

Nangong Wan absorbed the Medusa Queen’s seventy-thousand-year Soul Ring and gained a powerful time-stopping domain skill, while Meng Qianqiu found a rare skull Soul Bone. Meng Zhongqi absorbed the bone and completed his Soul Bone set, awakening martial soul avatar armor that could lead to Divine Armor and ascension.

• Meng Qianqiu reassured Nangong Wan that ten-thousand-year whale glue could help her absorb the Medusa Queen’s seventy-thousand-year Soul Ring, and she accepted the risk.
• Nangong Wan killed the weakened Medusa Queen and began absorbing its Soul Ring as Meng Zhongqi stood guard.
• Nangong Wan gained the Eighth Soul Skill Frozen Time, which stopped time across thousands of meters and filled her domain-control weakness.
• Meng Qianqiu discovered a seventy-thousand-year gem-type skull Soul Bone inside the Medusa Queen, and Nangong Wan and Meng Zhongqi urged each other to absorb it.
• Meng Zhongqi accepted the skull Soul Bone, completed his Soul Bone set, and awakened martial soul avatar armor; Meng Qianqiu explained its connection to Divine Armor and becoming a god.

Meng Qianqiu persuaded Meng Zhongqi to bring the dying Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where it could evade its transformation tribulation and potentially become a source of a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring. The three entered the legendary treasure land and discovered a vast garden filled with rare spirit medicines and sixteen immortal herbs.

• Meng Zhongqi revealed that his seventy-thousand-year skull bone granted him Martial Soul Avatar Armor and the petrifying Soul Skill Medusa's Gaze.
• Meng Qianqiu stopped Meng Zhongqi from killing the wounded Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor and explained that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could shield it from its transformation tribulation.
• Meng Zhongqi, Nangong Wan, and Meng Qianqiu agreed to use the well to help the serpent reach a hundred thousand years and entered the treasure land with it.
• The three found the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well surrounded by medicinal gardens, and Meng Qianqiu explained that herbs there grew far faster than outside.
• Meng Zhongqi identified hundreds of valuable spirit medicines and sixteen immortal herbs arranged throughout the gardens according to yin and yang.

Meng Qianqiu and his family used spirit herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to advance the Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor into a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, then killed it for its Soul Ring and Soul Bone. After Meng Zhongqi absorbed the Soul Ring, Meng Qianqiu offered Nangong Wan an Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid to improve her cultivation potential.

• Meng Qianqiu and Meng Zhongqi fed the injured Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor over twenty grade-eight spirit herbs, advancing it to a hundred thousand years.
• Meng Zhongqi used Medusa's Gaze to halt the snake's recovery, then killed it and obtained a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and a gemstone-type skull.
• Meng Zhongqi refined the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, while Nangong Wan guarded him and inspected the Soul Bone.
• Nangong Wan offered the skull to Meng Qianqiu, but he declined because his strength was too low to safely absorb it.
• Meng Qianqiu learned that Nangong Wan believed her rank-seven Innate Soul Power limited her potential, then picked an Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid to improve her aptitude.

Meng Qianqiu explained the immortal herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and offered Meng Zhongqi a way to purge his remaining poison and grow stronger. The chapter left Meng Zhongqi considering a dangerous tempering method that could help him forge a water and fire golden body and condense a Soul Core.

• Meng Qianqiu explained that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well’s immortal herbs came from the essence of the fallen Water and Fire Dragon Kings and warned that their deeper inheritance could draw Meng Zhongqi into dangerous ties with the Silver Dragon King.
• Meng Zhongqi reported that absorbing the Nine-Section Jade Snake Emperor’s Soul Ring had raised his Soul Power to level ninety-two and transformed it into liquid Soul Power.
• Meng Qianqiu offered to clear Meng Zhongqi’s cold poison using the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.
• Meng Qianqiu explained that Meng Zhongqi would need to consume both herbs and temper himself in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Meng Qianqiu said the method could let Meng Zhongqi forge a water and fire golden body, condense a Yin-Yang Soul Core, and eventually reach level ninety-nine or Demigodhood.

Meng Zhongqi and Nangong Wan used immortal herbs to strengthen their cultivation, while Meng Qianqiu and his Manggu Vermilion Toad consumed complementary herbs. Meng Zhongqi emerged from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well at rank ninety-three with a Soul Core, and Meng Qianqiu began refining his own herbs.

• Meng Zhongqi swallowed the octagonal mysterious ice grass and infernal delicate apricot, then jumped into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
• Meng Qianqiu gave Nangong Wan the eight-petal immortal orchid and a primordial immortal herb to refine later, and she felt her Soul Power begin to rise.
• Meng Qianqiu picked the aromatic silk beauty and Snow-Color Swan Kiss, then fed the Snow-Color Swan Kiss to his Manggu Vermilion Toad and swallowed the aromatic silk beauty himself.
• The Manggu Vermilion Toad entered Meng Qianqiu's body, and the two began refining their herbs in a state of dual cultivation.
• Meng Zhongqi emerged from the well with a water and fire golden body, rank ninety-three Soul Power, and a condensed mysterious ice Soul Core, then realized his clothes had burned away.

Meng Qianqiu’s Manggu Vermilion Toad advanced to an ultimate Martial Soul, and the Aromatic Silk Beauty gave him a radiant glazed pure body and raised his Soul Power to level fourteen. Meng Zhongqi and Nangong Wan also gained strength, while Meng Zhongqi prepared to face the attention his new Titled Douluo status would bring.

• Meng Zhongqi warned Nangong Wan to move away when Meng Qianqiu’s Martial Soul released a cloud of red mist, and Meng Qianqiu had the Manggu Vermilion Toad swallow it.
• Meng Qianqiu discovered that the Manggu Vermilion Toad had advanced to an ultimate Martial Soul and that the Aromatic Silk Beauty had made his body impervious to poison and formed a radiant glazed pure body.
• Meng Qianqiu found that his Soul Power had risen three levels to fourteen and considered absorbing the Star Luo Spirit Pearl next.
• Nangong Wan said the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid had raised her Soul Power to level eighty-three, while Meng Zhongqi revealed his level ninety-three Soul Power, Soul Core, and hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring.
• Meng Qianqiu warned that Meng Zhongqi’s new Titled Douluo status would draw attention to the Meng Family, and Meng Zhongqi said the family could defend itself.

Meng Qianqiu persuaded Meng Zhongqi to join Spirit Hall as an elder while the Meng Family secretly built influence and prepared to take control from within. After the family stripped the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of its herbs, Dugu Feng inferred that Meng Zhongqi had risked his life to protect Meng Qianqiu, whose innate Soul Power might be full rank.

• Meng Qianqiu argued that Spirit Hall was the strongest potential backer and persuaded Meng Zhongqi to join it while Nangong Wan stayed to protect the Meng Family.
• Meng Qianqiu outlined a plan to build followers within Spirit Hall, win over talented people with immortal herbs, and eventually curb Bibi Dong and the Secret Chamber Douluo's influence.
• Meng Qianqiu and his grandparents packed up every medicinal herb at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, with Meng Zhongqi taking most of the herbs and Meng Qianqiu keeping the immortal herbs.
• Dugu Feng heard that Meng Zhongqi had become a Titled Douluo and deduced that he had risked his life because Meng Qianqiu's talent had made him feel threatened.
• Dugu Feng concluded that Meng Qianqiu might possess innate full Soul Power and noted that Meng Zhongqi's breakthrough had damaged his foundation.
