After breaking through with the Supreme Heaven Pill, Lu Changsheng and his companions continued toward the Martial Venerable Tomb’s core, finding a hidden ten-thousand-year Earth Emperor Essence in a ruined medicinal garden. They reached a plaza where the Strength God Ancient Tablet tested physical strength and displayed the greatest physiques in the Eastern Mausoleum Domain, leaving Shi Jingtian eager to challenge it.

• Lu Changsheng advanced from the first to the sixth level of the Xuantian Realm, Shi Jingtian reached the sixth level of the Heaven Piercing Realm, and Tu Jiao strengthened her Primordial Hegemon Body.

• Lu Changsheng and Rui'er headed toward the Array Domain while Tu Jiao and Shi Jingtian went toward the Sword Domain.

Lu Changsheng and Rui'er entered Array Venerable Xuanji’s Array Domain and faced the first inheritance trial, enduring three hours beneath the Chaos Grinding Mill’s soul-crushing force. They survived and qualified for the next trial, though fewer than ten of the original contestants remained standing.

• Contestants died or withdrew under the agony, while Lu Changsheng studied the mill’s array rhythm and Rui'er struggled to hold on.
• After three hours, the grinding stopped, and Lu Changsheng and Rui'er learned they had passed as fewer than ten contestants remained standing.

After passing the Chaos Grinding Mill trial, Lu Changsheng and Rui'er entered a Spirit Array duel for four Ancient Spirit Array Scrolls. Lu Changsheng defeated Wu Yinshan, while Rui'er also won her scroll, leaving both with rewards and advancing to the next trial.

• The eight Spirit Array Masters who endured the Chaos Grinding Mill were transported to a dark void, where Array Venerable Xuanji announced a paired duel for four Ancient Spirit Array Scrolls.

They began his final trial to break one of four arrays, and Lu Changsheng struggled to locate the array eye of the Du Tian Blazing Fire Immortal Array.

• Lu Changsheng studied the fourth-grade high-tier Mountain Sealing Demon Array, while Rui'er received the fourth-grade mid-tier Cosmic Starry Sky Spirit Locking Array.
• Lu Changsheng, Rui'er, Qu Ling'er, and Elder Xuanfeng followed a spiritual ripple to Array Venerable Xuanji's remains and learned that only the first to break a final-trial array could inherit the True Explanation of Array Dao.
• The four chose their trials: Rui'er entered the Yin Yang Hun Tian Array, Qu Ling'er entered the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Sword Array, Elder Xuanfeng entered the Flying Fish Nine Tripod Array, and Lu Changsheng entered the Du Tian Blazing Fire Immortal Array.
• Lu Changsheng endured the array's scorching heat and attacked suspected array eyes, but the flames countered him and he nearly got hit by a Phoenix-shaped stream of immortal fire.
• Lu Changsheng sat at a stable array-pattern node and used his spiritual power to sense the array's rhythm as he sought its hidden array eye.

Lu Changsheng broke Array Venerable Xuanji’s trial array and received the inheritance, which he shared with Rui'er. After they absorbed it and left the Array Domain, Shi Jingtian’s urgent distress signal led them toward the Sword Domain.

• Lu Changsheng endured the Du Tian Blazing Fire Immortal Array, found that its array eye appeared when the nine immortal flames’ paths overlapped, and broke the array with a strike.
• Array Venerable Xuanji named Lu Changsheng his successor and granted Rui'er, Qu Ling'er, and Elder Xuanfeng pills and array texts for their efforts.

• After three days of absorbing the inheritance, Lu Changsheng and Rui'er found themselves back outside the vanished Array Domain.
• Lu Changsheng received an incomplete distress signal from Shi Jingtian in the Sword Domain and entered it with Rui'er to investigate.

Lu Changsheng and Rui'er found Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao poisoned by Bone Devouring Gu in the Sword Domain, then confronted the Gu Sect Master Wu Guang and Joyful Union Sect Master Teng Sha. The two sides began fighting outside the cave, with Lu Changsheng facing Teng Sha and Rui'er moving to restrain Wu Guang.

• Lu Changsheng and Rui'er entered the Sword Domain and followed the communication token toward Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao.

• Lu Changsheng and Rui'er found Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao in a cave, weakened by Bone Devouring Gu inflicted during an ambush by the Gu Sect and Joyful Union Sect.
• Tu Jiao said they needed an antidote made by Wu Guang, and Lu Changsheng resolved to obtain it despite her warning that Wu Guang and Teng Sha were Heaven Piercing Realm experts.
• Teng Sha and Wu Guang arrived at the cave, and Lu Changsheng and Rui'er emerged to face them.
• Lu Changsheng took on Teng Sha while Rui'er formed a plan to restrain Wu Guang, and the battle erupted as Teng Sha attacked Lu Changsheng and Wu Guang sent poisonous insects at Rui'er.

• Teng Sha attacked Lu Changsheng with a pink claw imprint, but Lu Changsheng evaded it with Nine Heavens Lightning Steps.
• Teng Sha used the Seven Emotions Six Desires Palm, and Lu Changsheng blocked its mind-affecting power before countering with Raging Waves Palm, forcing Teng Sha back only slightly.
• Teng Sha summoned the Yin-Yang Joyful Union Cauldron, and Lu Changsheng struck it with Dragon Elephant Hegemon Fist, halting its descent but suffering a charred wound on his fist.
• As the cauldron pressed down and its evil flames weakened his defenses, Lu Changsheng gathered Yin-Yang Fiendish Thunder and unleashed the Thunder Emperor Palm.
• Lu Changsheng’s Thunder Emperor Palm shattered Teng Sha’s cauldron, struck Teng Sha in the chest, and embedded him in a mountain wall.

After Lu Changsheng and his companions defeated the Gu Sect Master and cured Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao, a purple-gold pillar erupted in the northwest, drawing factions across the Martial Venerable Tomb toward the Purple Gold Giant Egg. The chapter ended with Xing You emerging from seclusion, learning the egg’s significance, and racing to claim it.

• Lu Changsheng killed Teng Sha, while Rui'er trapped Wu Guang in the Star Locking Spirit Array and forced him to surrender the Bone Devouring Gu antidotes.
• Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao took the antidotes, recovered from the poison, and Shi Jingtian killed Wu Guang despite Tu Jiao’s objection to Rui'er witnessing it.
• The group decided to investigate the northwest after the tomb shook and a purple-gold pillar appeared; Shi Jingtian’s black bead reacted to it, and other factions also rushed toward the light.
• Xing You emerged from a blood cocoon after refining the Blood Purgatory Demon Venerable’s inheritance and learned that Lu Changsheng, Shi Jingtian, and Tu Jiao were likely responsible for several demonic experts’ deaths.
• Xing You recognized the pillar as a sign of the Purple Gold Giant Egg from the upper realm and led the demonic sect masters toward it to seize the treasure.

Lu Changsheng and his companions raced against Xing You and the demonic sect masters to reach the Purple Gold Giant Egg, but its flames badly burned Xing You when he tried to claim it. The black bead then flew into the egg and began erasing its sealing patterns, leaving the gathered martial artists watching as it trembled.

• Xing You confronted Lu Changsheng, Shi Jingtian, Tu Jiao, and Rui'er, but postponed their fight to pursue the purple-gold pillar.

• Shi Jingtian and the others broke through the six demonic sect masters’ blockade and approached the egg.
• At Tu Jiao’s urging, Shi Jingtian revealed the black bead, which flew into the egg and caused its sealing patterns to fade.

The Purple Gold Giant Egg hatched into the Primordial Bird, which slaughtered martial artists before sensing the Creation Devouring Heaven Cauldron inside Lu Changsheng and attacking him. The bird then settled inside the cauldron to recover, leaving Lu Changsheng safe but his companions worried about what its presence might mean.

• The Purple Gold Giant Egg absorbed a vast amount of spiritual energy, hatched, and revealed the Primordial Bird, which Shi Jingtian identified as the ancestor of all avian creatures.
• The Primordial Bird unleashed its divine flames on the crowd and killed the leaders of the six great demonic sects as the survivors fled.
• The Primordial Bird sensed the Creation Devouring Heaven Cauldron inside Lu Changsheng and pursued him, engulfing him in purple-gold flames.
• The flames withdrew, and Lu Changsheng discovered the Primordial Bird resting inside his cauldron; it told him it would stay temporarily while recovering from its injuries.
• Lu Changsheng told Shi Jingtian, Tu Jiao, and Rui'er that the Primordial Bird was residing inside him, and they worried over whether the change was a blessing or a disaster.

The Fourth Demonic Son, Xing You, confronted Lu Changsheng and demanded the Primordial Bird, threatening the Qingwei Lineage. Shi Jingtian and Tu Jiao defended Lu Changsheng and battled Xing You, leaving him struggling despite his higher cultivation level.

Lu Changsheng and his companions were ambushed in the Yandang Mountain Range by Bone Nether Demonic Venerable, who intended to avenge the Boundless Demonic Palace. Lu Changsheng unleashed the Thunder Devouring Beast Heart to survive the attack, and the chapter left the four staring into the blast zone, uncertain whether the demonic venerable had died.

• Shi Jingtian, Tu Jiao, Lu Changsheng, and Rui'er celebrated their victories as they flew toward the Yandang Mountain Range on their way back to the sect.
