Chapter Summaries

Wang Teng Main Body used the chaos around the Source Gu Crystal to collect attributes from the Poison Nightmare Demon Body, greatly strengthening his powers and completing his insights into the body. He left the Poison Nightmare Demon Body fully controllable, with Calamity Force at fifth-rank perfection and Earth Gu Poison at second rank.

• After seeing the Blood God Clone deploy the Blood Clan Void Fortress to hold off the Moth Demon Race, Wang Teng Main Body decided to use the time to collect the nearby Attribute Bubbles.
• Wang Teng Main Body raised Poison Origin to 85,000 points and the Heart of Calamity to 175,000 points, while his Calamity Force reached fifth-rank perfection.
• Wang Teng Main Body completed his Poison Nightmare Demon Body insights, raising his mastery to Small Success and gaining full control over the body and its core.
• Wang Teng Main Body improved his Gu Poison Secret Rune and Ancient Poison Rune insights, bringing both to Small Success.
• Wang Teng Main Body absorbed Earth Gu Poison attributes and raised Earth Gu Poison from the first rank to the second, strengthening his Demon Lotus Poison Body.

Wang Teng let the Six-Winged Celestial Devil Gu Insect absorb second-order Earth Gu Poison, then infiltrated the Source Gu Crystal and discovered the Source of Gu within. He mastered the first-order Gu Source Law and continued collecting Earth Gu Poison and Source of Gu attributes.

• The Six-Winged Celestial Devil Gu Insect sensed the Earth Gu Poison in Wang Teng’s Chaos Star Region, and Wang Teng allowed it to absorb the poison.
• Wang Teng gained three thousand Demon Lotus Poison Body attribute points from the Earth Gu Poison but found no Source of Gu attributes among the initial bubbles.
• Wang Teng used the Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s insights to infiltrate the Source Gu Crystal with his Soul Power and sensed its Life Power, Source Power, and spatial principles.
• Wang Teng followed the crystal’s spatial principles past its isolation measures and reached Attribute Bubbles containing Earth Gu Poison and Source of Gu.
• Wang Teng absorbed the bubbles, mastered the first-order Gu Source Law, and continued deeper to collect more attributes.

Wang Teng discovered a Moth Gu Insect being refined inside the Source Gu Crystal and realized it was connected to the core of the Poison Nightmare Demon Body. Seeing that the powerful insect had no master, he began trying to subdue it with Calamity Force, Moth Demon Race power, and the Blood God Curse.

• Wang Teng found a black egg at the heart of the Source Gu Crystal and sensed that its threads connected to the core of the Poison Nightmare Demon Body.
• Wang Teng sent transformed Soul Power into the egg and discovered a living black moth carrying the auras of a Dark Star Beast and Gu.
• Wang Teng realized the Moth Demon Race had refined the moth into a powerful Gu insect that contained Calamity Force and had not recognized a master.
• Wang Teng decided to claim the Moth Gu Insect and prepared to refine it using Calamity Force, Moth Demon Race power, and the Blood God Curse.
• Wang Teng sent his powers through the black threads into the Moth Gu Insect to begin the refinement.

Wang Teng secretly implanted the Blood God Curse into the Moth Gu Insect inside the black egg, modifying the curse with soul techniques to keep it from noticing. When the insect awakened and tried to resist, Wang Teng bound it and used the familiar auras of the Moth Demon Race and Calamity Force to make it hesitate, then pressed the curse deeper into its body.

• Wang Teng infused the Moth Gu Insect with the Blood God Curse, but its heartbeat quickened when the curse marks began to merge.
• Wang Teng evolved the curse marks with Bewitchment and Bewitch Heart, allowing him to implant them without alerting the insect at first.
• As the curse spread across three-fifths of the insect's body, its heartbeat accelerated and Wang Teng poured in the prepared curse marks.
• The Moth Gu Insect awakened and shrieked, but Wang Teng blocked its soul attack and bound it with the Blood God Curse.
• Wang Teng overwhelmed the insect with the auras of his Demon Moth Body and Heart of Calamity, making it hesitate as he drove the curse deeper.

Wang Teng subdued the Moth Gu Insect by using the Blood God Curse to restrain its body and Soul Body. After the insect’s soul attack and illusion failed, it lost the ability to resist and became Wang Teng’s Gu Insect.

• Wang Teng fused the Blood God Curse imprints into the Moth Gu Insect, restraining its body and preventing it from mobilizing its powers.
• The Moth Gu Insect unleashed its Soul Power to shatter some curse imprints, but Wang Teng countered with his own Soul Power and reinforced the curse on its Soul Body.
• The Moth Gu Insect’s soul shriek struck Wang Teng and pulled him into an illusion realm formed from darkness and calamity.
• Wang Teng used his Fifth Order Supreme Darkness Will to shatter the illusion realm and returned to find his defenses had contained the soul attack.
• Wang Teng completed the Blood God Curse’s confinement of the Moth Gu Insect’s Soul Body, and the insect submitted to him.

Wang Teng subdued the Saint-level Moth Gu Insect, gained insights into the Source of Gu, and took control of the Poison Nightmare Demon Body by replacing its core and runes. With two Poison Nightmare Demon Bodies still to handle, he had the Blood God Clone draw the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable’s attention while Wang Teng continued his work.

• Wang Teng reassured the exhausted Moth Gu Insect and let it sleep, then collected attribute bubbles that raised his Heart of Calamity, Gu Poison Secret Rune, and Source of Gu.
• Wang Teng discovered that the second-order Source of Gu could refine enemies into Gu and help combine different powers.
• Wang Teng replaced the Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s core and Source Gu Crystal runes with his own, completing a false core that gave him control of the body.
• Wang Teng sent a thought to the Blood God Clone, who decided to distract the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable while Wang Teng dealt with the remaining bodies.
• The Blood God Clone activated a sigil that made the Blood Clan Void Fortress glow and hum, drawing the Upper Demon Venerable’s attention.

The Blood God Clone drew the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable into a clash, giving Wang Teng time to escape the first Poison Nightmare Demon Body and enter the second. There, Wang Teng found a poisonous swamp at the core and began collecting its Attribute Bubbles.

• The Blood God Clone unleashed the Blood Clan Void Fortress against the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable, whose Moth Emperor Poison Arrows met the crimson rays in a fierce clash.
• The Darkness Breeds saw that the Blood Clan Blood Child had endured the Upper Demon Venerable’s attacks and marveled at his strength.
• Wang Teng left the first Poison Nightmare Demon Body through space and entered the second while the Blood God Clone kept the Upper Demon Venerable occupied.
• Wang Teng reached the second Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s core and found a vast swamp whose poisonous aura hindered his Soul Power.
• Wang Teng activated his Demon Lotus Poison Body, Wood Butterfly Poison Body, and Demon Moth Body to resist and absorb the swamp’s poison.
• Wang Teng discovered Attribute Bubbles in the swamp and collected Myriad Swamp Poison and Poison Source Star Power.

Wang Teng discovered that the swamp contained Myriad Swamp Poison, a powerful toxin created by generations of Poison Masters from the Sub-Profession Alliance Headquarters, and resolved to reclaim it from the Darkness Breeds. He found and took control of the second Poison Nightmare Demon Body by replacing its core runes, then considered how to recover the swamp itself.

• Wang Teng absorbed insights into Myriad Swamp Poison and learned that the vast toxin had been formed from more than ten thousand rare poisons.
• Wang Teng identified the swamp as the work of the Sub-Profession Alliance Headquarters and decided to return the treasure to its rightful owner.
• Wang Teng collected Myriad Swamp Poison, Poison Origin, and other attributes from the swamp, raising Myriad Swamp Poison to the second rank.
• Wang Teng disguised his soul aura and descended into the swamp, following Ancient Poison Rune threads to a massive black egg that served as the Poison Nightmare Demon Body's core.
• Wang Teng replaced the core runes and gained control of the second Poison Nightmare Demon Body, then planned how to reclaim the swamp it had parasitized.

Wang Teng explored the second Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s toxic swamp, raised his Myriad Swamp Poison to tier three, and secretly prepared a Space Displacement Array to move the swamp later. After completing the setup, he and the Blood God Clone drew the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable’s attention and entered the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body.

• Wang Teng collected attribute bubbles around the swamp’s edge, raising his Myriad Swamp Poison to tier three and improving his Ancient Poison Runes and Ancient Space Runes.
• Wang Teng discovered that Ancient Poison Runes let the swamp absorb and assimilate weaker poisons, while spatial barriers kept it from directly touching the Poison Nightmare Demon Body.
• Wang Teng inscribed a concealed Space Displacement Array around the swamp and made a corresponding Space Imprint in his Devouring Space so he could move the swamp later.
• Wang Teng and the Blood God Clone diverted the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable’s attention and entered the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body.

Wang Teng’s main body entered the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body while his Blood God Clone distracted the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable with taunts and a Void Fortress attack. As the Upper Demon Venerable unleashed black giant pythons, the Blood God Clone used the Blood Sea to bind them before they could reach the Blood God Altar’s Defense Barrier.

• Wang Teng’s main body entered the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body, and the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable sensed a disturbance before the Blood God Clone drew its attention away.
• The Blood God Clone fired a concentrated crimson beam from the Blood Clan Void Fortress, but the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable caught and crushed it with one hand.
• The Blood God Clone taunted the Moth Demon Race Upper Demon Venerable until it lost patience and formed enormous black giant pythons from black mist, Source Law, and Immortal Power.
• The Blood God Clone summoned a vast Blood Sea beneath the Blood Clan Void Fortress and sent its power into the sea as the black giant pythons charged.
• The Blood God Clone commanded the Blood Sea to bind the black giant pythons, wrapping them in dark crimson restraints before they reached the Blood God Altar’s Defense Barrier.

The Coalition's leaders waited for intelligence before beginning the decisive battle, while Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce faced questions over the delay. A mysterious True God arrived, produced a verified highest-order command, and ordered the army to advance on the Darkness Breed Lair.

• Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce asked for authorization from the highest command, and the azure figure presented a sigil that the Intelligent Lifeform verified as a correct highest-order command.

A newly arrived True God presented the unique Highest Command Proof and took supreme command of the Coalition, then ordered Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce to recall Wang Teng from the Darkness Breed Lair.

• The azure figure’s Highest Command Proof passed verification, establishing him as supreme commander and displacing Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce’s authority.
• The True God ordered Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce to recall Wang Teng from the Darkness Breed Lair, arguing that Wang Teng’s mission could endanger the decisive battle.
• Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce asked the True God to reconsider, while the assembled Immortal Level powerhouses silently showed their disapproval of targeting Wang Teng.
• Nuo Ang supported the recall order, but Venerable One Fengtai then backed Xing Ce’s proposal to mobilize the army instead of recalling Wang Teng.
• Another Immortal Level Venerable urged the True God to leave Wang Teng alone because he might bring the Coalition useful information.

Yalot, Venerable One Fengtai, and Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce defended Wang Teng before the azure True God, accepting responsibility for him as a Military Order. After the army was ordered to set out, Venerable One Fengtai revealed his unease about the battle, and the group agreed to warn the Mechanical Race True God and the Ice True God.

• Yalot, Venerable One Fengtai, and Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce spoke up for Wang Teng, and the azure True God allowed Wang Teng to act freely but made the three responsible for the outcome.
• Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce, Venerable One Fengtai, and Yalot each accepted the responsibility, and the azure True God declared their words a Military Order before ordering the entire army to set out through the Space Channel.
• Venerable One Fengtai explained that an ominous premonition had partly motivated him to protect Wang Teng, and Yalot and Commander-in-Chief Xing Ce agreed to inform the Mechanical Race True God and the Ice True God.
• Venerable One Fengtai and the other Immortal Level beings confronted Nuo Ang, who admitted he had acted under pressure but questioned whether protecting Wang Teng would harm the overall situation.

Venerable One Fengtai defended Wang Teng’s value to the Coalition and pressed Nuo Ang to identify the mysterious True God commander, but Nuo Ang refused for fear of being killed. The Immortal Level leaders alerted the Mechanical Race True God and the Ice True God, then began preparing the Coalition army to launch its decisive battle and breach the barrier around the Three Great Territories.

• Venerable One Fengtai rebuked Nuo Ang for questioning Wang Teng’s usefulness and pointed out that Wang Teng dared to enter a Darkness Breed Lair alone to gather intelligence.
• Nuo Ang refused to reveal the True God Lord’s identity, saying the Lord had not disclosed it and would kill him if he exposed it.

• You Lujin, Yu Huang, and Adehog shared their Military Exploits, and the assembled geniuses learned that most had earned over three million.

Starry Sky Academy geniuses discussed Wang Teng’s capture and the powerful experts sent to rescue him, while the Azure Flame Association mocked his chances and the Starry Sky Association’s claims. The chapter ended with Ruan Banlian challenging them, insisting the rescue mission was not solely for Wang Teng.

• The Azure Flame Association members praised Feng Qingyan and speculated that Wang Teng would not return from the Darkness Breed’s grasp, while Ruan Banlian worried about Feng Qingyan’s absence.

• Tabitha reassured the Starry Sky Association that True God Level existences and several Immortal Level Venerables had joined the rescue, astonishing the gathered geniuses.
• Wu Yan, Bai Chuan Liu, and others admitted they envied Wang Teng’s rescue mission, prompting Yue Qiqiao to question whether they would risk being captured themselves.
• Ruan Banlian claimed an Immortal Level Venerable from the Mechanical Race had also been captured and accused the Starry Sky Association of shamelessly exaggerating how many experts had come for Wang Teng.

Ruan Banlian tried to discredit the Starry Sky Association by claiming Wang Teng had not been the main reason powerful figures acted, but Nan Xi and other geniuses revealed that multiple factions had sent Immortal Level Venerables for Wang Teng.

Wang Teng explored the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s core and discovered a vast store of Dark Mist Cloud Metal, a rare poison-absorbing metal suitable for forging battle armor. After stimulating the metal’s poison, he collected Dark Mist Poison Attribute Bubbles and gained the poison at the third tier.

• Nan Xi told Yue Qiqiao that Wang Teng would return safely, while Yue Qiqiao and the others felt driven to grow stronger after seeing the gap between themselves and the powerful geniuses.
• Wang Teng explored the core space of the third Poison Nightmare Demon Body and found a strange dark-blue substance that seemed to be metal infused with poison.
• Yuan Gungun identified the substance as Dark Mist Cloud Metal, a rare metal capable of being forged into Immortal Level battle armor and absorbing Poison Power.
• Wang Teng used his Soul Power to find patterns in the metal and accidentally awakened its corrosive poison, but withdrew in time without being harmed.
• Several Attribute Bubbles appeared, and Wang Teng collected them to obtain Dark Mist Poison, which reached the third tier directly.

Wang Teng harvested Dark Mist Poison and Dark Mist Cloud Rune insights from Dark Mist Cloud Metal, raising the poison to the fourth tier and the runes to Proficient level as he searched for the Poison Nightmare Demon Body’s core structure. He then realized the core space contained no Calamity Force, an absence that left him shocked.

• Wang Teng examined the Dark Mist Poison and found it could shift between fine, sharp threads and a dense sphere, with poison that silently seeped into victims and was difficult to remove.

• Wang Teng moved among the Dark Mist Cloud Metal, harvesting it while searching for the core structure, and raised his Dark Mist Poison to the fourth tier, enough to threaten Immortal Level beings.
• Wang Teng realized there was no Calamity Force in the core space, despite the Poison Nightmare Demon Body normally containing it everywhere.

• Wang Teng continued below the surface, collected Dark Mist Cloud Rune and Calamity Force attributes, and realized that the vein’s deepest Dark Mist Cloud Metal had mutated through its fusion with Calamity Force.
• Wang Teng followed the growing concentration of Calamity Force into the vein’s Venerable Immortal Level core and cautiously advanced deeper.
• Wang Teng detected dark, needle-like attacks aimed at his soul and used his True Sight Eye to recognize that they formed from Dark Mist Poison.
• Wang Teng sensed an unfamiliar power resembling but surpassing the Moth Demon Race’s aura, then was struck by a Netherlight Needle as he withdrew his Soul Power.
• Wang Teng felt the needle’s poison spread toward his Soul Body and mobilized his poison-type physique to resist it.
