Yu Tianshuang arrived in time to save Shui Bing'er from Tang San and confronted him with a single sword strike. Tang San was driven backward by Yu Tianshuang's Sword Qi, while Shui Bing'er tended to the wounded and watched the fight.
Yu Tianshuang used Heavenly Frost Cold Qi to kill Tang San with a single sword strike. The onlookers were left stunned by the sudden defeat of the Asura God.
Yu Tianshuang killed Tang San and Xiao Wu after rejecting her pleas, but a mysterious black hand stole the Sea God's Heart and Asura God Sword. He returned to the city wall, where his companions welcomed him and Huo Wu blushed at Sword Douluo's teasing.
Yu Tianshuang reunited with Huo Wu, Qian Renxue, and Shui Bing'er after the war, but his feelings for the other Qian Renxue left the surviving Qian Renxue devastated. The chapter ended with Yu Tianshuang and Shui Bing'er quietly sharing their grief as night fell.
Yu Tianshuang learned that Ye Lingling had spent her life force healing a deity, then comforted Qian Renxue as she shared Ye Lingling’s last wishes and asked whether she was only a substitute. The survivors planned to split their forces, retaking the Star Luo Empire while the rest marched on the Heaven Dou Empire.
Yu Tianshuang’s forces reached Heaven Dou City and found it seemingly deserted, while Ye Yuxuan ordered the Holy Spirit Descent Plan begun. As Yu Tianshuang and Shui Bing’er went to scout the city, spatial rifts opened and released hordes of monsters and powerful humanoid beings.
Yu Tianshuang and Shui Bing'er easily defeated the greater demons and lesser demons attacking Heaven Dou City, but Bibi Dong appeared and taunted Yu Tianshuang over the deaths of people he knew and his grandfather. Yu Tianshuang offered Bibi Dong one last chance to leave the Douluo Continent and ascend to the Divine Realm.
Bibi Dong rejected Yu Tianshuang’s appeal to return to their shared ideals and used countless souls to raise her strength to the God King Realm. Yu Tianshuang then struck her with a sword that pierced her chest, leaving her fate—and the Holy Spirit Cult’s response—unresolved.
Ye Yuxuan advanced the Holy Spirit Descent Plan as Zhong Meng delayed Yu Tianshuang with a monstrous body sustained by golden threads. Purple arrays appeared over Heaven Dou City, Balak Kingdom, and Star Luo City, where the city’s monsters began feeding golden orbs into the array.
Qian Renxue and Yu Tianshuang discovered that the Holy Spirit Cult was using a purple array fueled by souls to carry out a ritual across the Douluo Continent. Yu Tianshuang recognized Ye Yuxuan’s plan to transform the Sea God’s Heart and the Asura God Sword, but his attacks could not stop the array from repairing itself.
Ye Yuxuan completed her plan to ascend as the Holy Spirit by absorbing the Soul Spirits of most of humanity, then faced Yu Tianshuang in battle. Their clash devastated Heaven Dou City, and the fight remained unresolved.
Yu Tianshuang rejected Ye Yuxuan’s offer to revive Shui Yue'er and Ye Lingling through the Goddess of Life, then revealed he had only kept Ye Yuxuan alive to make up for his past mistake. He trapped Ye Yuxuan and Bibi Dong inside his Extreme Heaven Ice World, where he destroyed Bibi Dong’s body and preserved her soul in the Rakshasa Demon Eye.
Yu Tianshuang killed Ye Yuxuan after defeating her in his Dao World, then revealed that Bibi Dong’s divine soul had survived and promised Qian Renxue he would seek her resurrection. The chapter left Qian Renxue with hope of seeing her mother again, while Yu Tianshuang vowed to bring back Yue’er and Lingling as well.
