Chen Ning learned about the Dragon-Tiger Realm and its hierarchy of gods while traveling with the Nine Yang Palace’s selected candidates. The group arrived at a secret gathering where multiple powerful God Realm figures would consider taking disciples, and the candidates surrendered their communication treasures and took memory-erasing pills.

• Chen Ning pieced together that the Dragon-Tiger Realm contained four regions and that God Emperors ruled vast star regions above the ranks of True Gods.

Chen Ning prepared to leave the Nine Yang Palace’s suspicious gathering, but the system gave him a quest to recruit three founding elders for the Dragon-Seeking Sect and a Talent Catcher to identify their potential. After discovering Zhao Xiuxiu was the Dragon-Tiger Realm’s sole tier-eight talent, Chen Ning changed his mind, took the pill, and followed Yang Heng into a Nine Yang Palace branch.

• Most of the travelers took the pills, and Yang Heng told the white-haired elder to leave if he refused; the elder swallowed his pill.

Chen Ning discovered that the Nine Yang Palace had drugged the group with a Gu and planned to steal their innate foundations while they slept. Just as Chen Ning prepared to fight back, Zhao Xiuxiu woke after being cut, throwing the operation into chaos.

• Yang Heng left Chen Ning and the other eighty people in a room, where burning sandalwood activated the Gu concealed in their pills and made them fall asleep.
• Huang Jin and the other Nine Yang Palace members entered and began cutting into the unconscious cultivators to steal their kidneys, which they called their foundations of the innate.

• Yang Yue offered to escort Zhao Xiuxiu and the others back to the Spirit Rhinoceros Continent, then activated the Gu inside Zhao Xiuxiu when he lowered his guard.

Yang Yue tried to capture Zhao Xiuxiu and negotiate with a masked buyer, but Zhao vanished from the secret chamber. After Chen Ning rescued Zhao and cured the gu, Zhao asked him to help expose the Nine Yang Palace and promised to join the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

• Yang Yue activated the gu that sealed Zhao Xiuxiu's Qi sea and meridians, then ordered his men to take Zhao away.
• A minor leader told Yang Yue that another captive had awakened and escaped, so Yang Yue ordered a search while he met with a masked buyer to negotiate a higher price for the captives' innate essence.
• Yang Yue and the masked buyer found Zhao Xiuxiu missing from his chamber, and Yang Yue ordered the Nine Yang Palace to search the Northern Territory and the Spirit Rhinoceros Continent for the escapees.
• Chen Ning rescued Zhao Xiuxiu, neutralized the gu in his body, and invited him to join the Dragon-Seeking Sect.
• Zhao Xiuxiu asked Chen Ning to accompany him back to the Spirit Rhinoceros Continent so he could expose the Nine Yang Palace, promising to join the sect if Chen helped him.

• Fang Su dismissed an attendant who accepted a benefit to bring him the Nine Yang Palace’s visiting card, then agreed to meet Yang Yue.
• Yang Yue asked Fang Su to report Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu if he saw them, claiming they had killed cultivators and disrupted the True God’s selection.

• Chen Ning argued that the Nine Yang Palace was harming the Spirit Rhinoceros Continent and could be suppressed by contacting the True God.
• Fang Su said he was no longer pursuing godhood but had long suspected the Nine Yang Palace, and agreed to contact the True God with the pair’s information and the Northern Territory’s location.

Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu stayed at Fang Su’s courtyard after Fang Su went to seek Spirit Rhinoceros True God, but Nine Yang Palace forces ambushed them. Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu killed Yang Song, Yang Tai, and the remaining attackers, while Yang Yue’s absence left his whereabouts unknown.

• Zhao Xiuxiu smashed Yang Tai into a meat patty, and Chen Ning killed the rest of the fleeing Nine Yang Palace members with lightning.

Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu arrived too late to save Fang Su, so they followed Huang Jin’s plan to infiltrate the Nine Yang Palace before the Spirit Rhinoceros True God arrived. Huang Jin smuggled them inside in disguise, where Chen Ning learned that the palace used gu and yearly antidotes to control its members.

• Chen Ning spared Huang Jin and gave him a pill to cure the gu after Huang Jin admitted the Nine Yang Palace had forced him to serve them.
• Huang Jin warned Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu that Yang Yue had gone after Fang Su, and offered to lead them into the Nine Yang Palace if their rescue attempt failed.
• Yang Yue’s three younger brothers overwhelmed Fang Su and killed him, while Yang Yue learned that two of his brothers had been killed by Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu.
• Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu hid nearby, realized they had arrived too late, and decided to use Huang Jin’s plan to enter the Nine Yang Palace.
• Three days later, Huang Jin brought disguised Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu into the palace and talked their way past a suspicious member.
• Chen Ning asked Huang Jin about the gu, and Huang Jin explained that Yang Yue controlled palace members by giving them an antidote once a year.

Zhao Xiuxiu and Chen Ning confronted the Spirit Rhinoceros True God with evidence that Nine Yang Palace murdered cultivators and killed Fang Su, but the True God accepted Yang Yue’s bribe and left without helping them. Yang Yue then trapped the two and revealed that Huang Jin had been killed.

• Zhao Xiuxiu burst into Nine Yang Palace’s hall and accused it of murdering cultivators to steal their innate essence.

• Chen Ning asked Zhao Xiuxiu about his origins, and Zhao Xiuxiu explained that his mother had sent him from the Eastern Territory to gain experience in the Western Territory and become a god.
• Chen Ning suggested that Zhao Xiuxiu’s mother had prepared the journey to protect him, so Zhao Xiuxiu set off to return home; Chen Ning agreed to accompany him and hide from the Spirit Rhinoceros True God.

• Chen Ning studied the Savage Bull Dharma Body cultivation method and learned that the God Realm ranked more than a hundred True God Dharma Bodies by rarity on the Heaven Ranking.

Chen Ning spent thirteen Divine Crystals cultivating the Savage Bull Dharma Body, forming its embryonic shape but stopping short of completing the fusion. He and Zhao Xiuxiu reached Zhao Xiuxiu’s home village, where they set out with Elder Wei and Wei Zhong to find Zhao Xiuxiu’s mother as hidden pursuers prepared to capture him.

• Chen Ning used thirteen Divine Crystals to form the Savage Bull Dharma Body’s embryonic shape, but ran out before completing the fusion.
• Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu arrived at Zhao Xiuxiu’s unnamed island village and met Grandpa Wei and Wei Zhong.

• Several figures hiding in the woods discussed capturing Zhao Xiuxiu on their lord’s orders.

Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu discovered Elder Wei had deceived them and were ambushed by Zhang Ye’s forces while searching for Zhao Xiuxiu’s mother. After Chen Ning killed the attackers’ companions, he urged Zhao Xiuxiu to eliminate Zhang Ye, Elder Wei, and Wei Zhong so none could threaten his mother or report back.

• Zhao Xiuxiu noticed his mother had left no medicine-gathering marks, and Chen Ning told him Elder Wei was lying about her entering the mountains.
• Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu slipped away from the stream, where Zhang Ye’s Saint Venerable subordinates surrounded them.

• Elder Wei and Wei Zhong arrived, and Zhang Ye revealed that his side had captured Zhao Xiuxiu’s mother.
• Zhao Xiuxiu agreed to surrender if Zhang Ye spared Chen Ning, and Zhang Ye accepted; Chen Ning then pointed out that killing the remaining pursuers would prevent them from threatening his mother or escaping.

Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu defeated Zhang Ye and Elder Wei after Chen Ning mastered Geng Metal Tribulation Lightning and broke through to the Middle Stage of Saint Venerable. They learned Zhao Xiuxiu’s mother was held in the Red-Haired God’s fortress, but Chen Ning decided they were not ready to confront him.

• Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu returned to the village and found its residents dead, then fled as ten masked Demigods confronted them for the item from the Nine Yang Palace.

• Mao Chunqiu asked Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu to help repair the damaged buildings of Great Peace Prefecture, and they agreed out of gratitude.
• Chen Ning considered the dangers posed by the masked pursuers and the Red-Haired God’s followers, and decided staying with Mao Chunqiu was safest for now.

• Qin Yan arrived with several other disciples and accused Mao Chunqiu of leading Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu astray.

• Qin Yan confronted Mao Chunqiu about bringing in Chen Ning and Zhao Xiuxiu, then left after learning he and Wen Hua would represent Great Peace Prefecture at the Wager of the Gods.

• Mao Chunqiu explained that he still had Divine Power but could no longer bring himself to fight anyone, even a mortal.

• Xue You told the Red-Haired God that only Wen Aotian could challenge him, and the Red-Haired God declared he would be the Wager's greatest winner.

Chen Ning learned why Mao Chunqiu had stopped fighting before accompanying him, Zhao Xiuxiu, and Qin Yan to Qilin Prefecture for the Wager of the Gods. As the Eastern Territory's gods gathered, the Red-Haired God publicly mocked Mao Chunqiu, hinting that he might target Great Peace Prefecture.

• Chen Ning learned that Mao Chunqiu had encouraged his Lower God friend to confront a Dragon-Tiger Realm giant, leading to the friend's death and Mao's grave injuries.
• Mao Chunqiu, Chen Ning, Zhao Xiuxiu, and Qin Yan traveled to Qilin Prefecture for the Wager of the Gods.

• Chen Ning noticed the Red-Haired God and was relieved that Zhao Xiuxiu's disguise concealed her identity.
• The crowd mocked Mao Chunqiu, and the Red-Haired God publicly called him a useless god, signaling a possible move against Great Peace Prefecture.

The Wager of the Gods began under rules that balanced challenges against the cost of refusing, and the Qilin True God introduced his new disciple, Yao Li. Chen Ning recognized Yao Li as the demoness who had tried to kill his sect leader, and the chapter ended with her glancing toward him as Wen Aotian watched suspiciously.

• The Qilin True God explained that each party could issue five challenges, while refusals required compensation and all five challenges had to be used.
• Chen Ning learned that Mao Chunqiu had often refused challenges to avoid risking Qin Yan and the Great Peace Prefecture party.

• Yao Li glanced toward Chen Ning, and Wen Aotian noticed his reaction.

• Wen Aotian grew jealous when he saw Yao Li glance at Chen Ning, suspecting she already liked him.
• Yao Li wagered fifty Divine Crystals against the True Flame Continent, and Fang Nu entered the battlefield to fight her.

• Yao Li summoned a flying guillotine that severed Fang Nu's head, ending the duel in an instant.
• Yao Li returned to the Qilin True God's side, while Chen Ning saw Fang Nu's fortune flow into her.

At the Wager of the Gods, Great Peace Prefecture repeatedly refused challenges until Qin Yan persuaded Mao Chunqiu to let him fight. Young Master Sword challenged them for half their territory, and Qin Yan accepted while staking his life, setting up a clash between two hidden trump cards.

• Yao Li's victory opened the Wager of the Gods, and disciples from the Eastern Territory began challenging rival factions.

• Young Master Sword matched Qin Yan's raised stake by wagering his own life.

Qin Yan defeated Young Master Sword in a wagered battle, winning territory from the Sword Qi Continent for Great Peace Prefecture. He then challenged the Red-Haired God’s Five Elements Prefecture to a much larger wager, intending to pressure him into accepting or paying Divine Crystals.

• Young Master Sword attacked Qin Yan with a sword net, but Qin Yan used his mastered union of hardness and softness to tear it apart.
• Qin Yan struck Young Master Sword with Vajra Palm, and Young Master Sword burned his sword heart for a final attack before Qin Yan’s Vajra Body Protection shielded him and Young Master Sword died.
• Qin Yan left the small world, and the Tusu Sword God faced losing territory after Young Master Sword’s defeat.
• Qin Yan confronted the Red-Haired God over his remarks and challenged Five Elements Prefecture, adding the territory he had just won from the Sword Qi Continent to the wager.
• Qin Yan privately assured Mao Chunqiu that he believed Great Peace Prefecture would win and was using the challenge to force the Red-Haired God to accept or pay Divine Crystals.

Qin Yan deliberately lost to Xue You, whose bizarre movement method absorbed Qin Yan’s power, costing Mao Chunqiu Great Peace Prefecture. Qin Yan then revealed he had betrayed his master to join the Red-Haired God, leaving Mao Chunqiu with no disciples.

• Mao Chunqiu encouraged Qin Yan to fight Xue You, while the Red-Haired God sent Xue You into the battlefield.
• Xue You evaded Qin Yan’s attacks with a movement method that formed a pattern and absorbed Qin Yan’s power.
• Xue You unleashed the power he had gathered, shattered Qin Yan’s golden-bell defense, and forced him to admit defeat.
