Chapter Summaries

After Prince Gordon’s death, Pang Bo struggled with the backlash from their Master-Servant Contract and relied on Na Bo Gang’s servants for help. Pike and Harkin extracted his intelligence on the Earth Native leader, then abandoned Pang Bo to draw the pursuer away from Na Bo Gang’s plans.

• Pang Bo sent his remaining servants to gather intelligence while he recovered from the contract backlash.

• Pike warned Pang Bo that the Earth Native leader was already tracking him, while Harkin refused to take him along and told him to accept his fate.
• Pang Bo released his mid-level servant from his contract and resigned himself to being found, thinking of his family and children.

Bai Pu killed Pang Bo, gained enough Honor Points to begin the Major General Trial, and received Na Bo Gang as his target. After Ryan emerged stronger from seclusion, the Lorich Orthodoxy army marched to reclaim Lorich Magic Academy and clashed with Feludo's forces at Chaotic Stone Beach.

• Bai Pu killed Pang Bo and began a Major General Trial requiring him to kill Na Bo Gang without external assistance.
• Bai Pu opened Pang Bo's Otherworld Traveler's Key, kept his family pocket watch, and suspected Na Bo Gang had driven Pang Bo to stay and fight.

• Amaril, Zusana, and the Lorich Orthodoxy faction gathered an Aid the King army while Feludo organized a Demon God rebel army.
• Ryan led the Lorich Orthodoxy army toward Lorich Magic Academy, where it clashed with Feludo's forces at Chaotic Stone Beach.

The Hua Xia Battle Group and Zhou Yu Squad fought Prince Na Bo Gang’s Sea Race team at Lorich Magic Academy, where Pike and Flying Fish Harkin overwhelmed their opponents. Zhou Yu and the others engaged the Sea Race fighters as Feludo summoned the Divine Power Aggregate of the Violet Flame Phoenix, Salagar.

• Pike charged through Lorich Orthodoxy soldiers, but Drunken Flower Forest redirected him before his petrifying javelin was shattered by Mount Tai Sect.

• Zhou Yu intercepted Harkin’s charge, while Mount Tai Sect, the Wushan Goddess, and Blood Spider confronted Pike.
• Feludo completed his spell above Lorich Castle and summoned the Divine Power Aggregate of the Violet Flame Phoenix, Salagar.

Feludo sent Sarajael’s demonic fire phoenix to bombard the Lorich Orthodoxy, while Ryan transformed into a giant dragon and fought it in the sky. Sea Prince Na Bo Gang imprisoned Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider in his Primal Sea, intending to use them to force Steel Heart into a decisive fight.

• Feludo directed Sarajael’s demonic fire phoenix to rain demonic fire on the Lorich Orthodoxy, burning away maximum Health Points and overwhelming ordinary defenses.
• Ryan transformed into a giant dragon and grappled with the phoenix, drawing it away from the Lorich Orthodoxy formation as its fire began damaging his scales.
• Na Bo Gang appeared and used the Reverse Current Magic Pearl to trap Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider in an Azure Water Prison.
• Na Bo Gang revealed that he had imprisoned the two women to draw Steel Heart into fighting him, and said they could escape only if someone broke the prison’s boundary from outside or they killed him.

Bai Pu arrived at Chaotic Stone Beach and challenged Sea Prince Na Bo Gang, who was holding the Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider captive to force a duel. Na Bo Gang isolated them in a sealed arena while keeping the women imprisoned in his Primal Sea Barrier.

• Bai Pu concluded that Na Bo Gang needed to kill him for a mission and that rescuing the hostages required breaking the Primal Sea Barrier.
• Bai Pu empowered his abilities, combined Doomsday's Edge with the Savior's Gauntlet Staff into Doomsday, and hurled his evolved Dark Gold Tower Shield at the Azure Water Prison.
• The Reverse Current Magic Pearl absorbed the attack, and Na Bo Gang claimed the King-Rank Purple Equipment was too powerful for Bai Pu to break.
• Bai Pu pointed out that Na Bo Gang could not use the pearl to fight without dissolving the barrier and losing his hostages.
• Na Bo Gang created a transparent arena that blocked outside interference, leaving only himself and Bai Pu inside while the Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider remained imprisoned.

Bai Pu faced Prince Na Bo Gang inside a water-curtain duel space and fought through the Prince’s tide-bound water monsters. Bai Pu ultimately pierced Na Bo Gang through the head with Doomsday, leaving the outcome of the duel apparently decided.

• Bai Pu identified Na Bo Gang’s water-curtain arena and summoned two Spider Demon Warriors to probe his defenses.
• Na Bo Gang unleashed Primordial Sea - Tide Binding, and Blue-Purple Water Men quickly destroyed Bai Pu’s Spider Demon Warriors.
• Bai Pu avoided the water monsters’ un-parryable attacks and charged toward Na Bo Gang while evading volleys of Primordial Water Arrows.
• Na Bo Gang summoned another group of water monsters and tried to overwhelm Bai Pu with a saturation attack, but Bai Pu used Gale Wind Body Protection to withstand the arrows.
• Bai Pu thrust Doomsday through Na Bo Gang’s sonic shockwaves and drove its spearpoint through the crown of his head.

Bai Pu fought Prince Na Bo Gang, whose Pure Water Thorn dissolved Bai Pu’s armor and whose bubble-swapping ability made him difficult to hit. Bai Pu used Magic Sand to resist the attacks, turning the battle into a contest of endurance as Na Bo Gang threatened his two captured companions.

• Bai Pu’s spear struck a bubble instead of Prince Na Bo Gang, who appeared behind him and hit Bai Pu with Pure Water Thorn.
• Prince Na Bo Gang repeatedly swapped places with bubbles and dissolved Bai Pu’s golden armor, while Bai Pu’s body endured the attacks.
• Bai Pu pursued Na Bo Gang while dodging volleys from the Blue-Purple Water Men, but his feints failed to overcome Na Bo Gang’s pure water shield.
• Bai Pu covered himself in Magic Sand to weaken Pure Water Thorn, and the two fighters began wearing down each other’s resources.
• Prince Na Bo Gang threatened that Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider would not hold on much longer, hoping to force Bai Pu into a mistake.

As the Wushan Goddess and Blood Spider faced death in the Primal Sea, they confessed their feelings to Bai Pu and urged him to escape. Bai Pu swallowed the Earth Dragon Pearl and Abyssal Pearl, gaining lord-level magic strength as he prepared to fight Na Bo Gang.

• As the Primal Sea's dissolution currents drained Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun, Wu Qingyun confessed that she loved Bai Pu.
• Wu Mingyue told Bai Pu not to forget her, and Wu Qingyun revealed that she and her aunt both loved him.
• Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun urged Bai Pu to run and leave them behind.
• Bai Pu swallowed the Earth Dragon Pearl and Abyssal Pearl, making them the new Magic Source Centers for his earth and water elements.
• Bai Pu's Watching the Sea Magic Battle Qi reached advanced-lord strength, and Na Bo Gang's Pure Water Thorns scattered against the gale around him.

Bai Pu rescued Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun by shattering Prince Na Bo Gang’s defenses with Doomsday, forcing the Sea Race to retreat. Na Bo Gang then revealed that he had deliberately yielded Lorich and Pavier Plateau as bait, planning to trap Bai Pu’s team when they entered Lord Sarajael’s territory.

• Bai Pu used Whirling Throw - Desperate Gamble with Doomsday to break Prince Na Bo Gang’s Whirlpool Gates, the Reverse Current Magic Pearl barrier, and the Azure Water Prison, then rescued Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun.
• Prince Na Bo Gang withdrew with his Sea Race forces after his magic pearl was damaged and the hostages were freed; the other Sea Race groups also retreated from their fights with Mount Tai Sect and Zhou Yu.
• Bai Pu treated the injured Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun, who pretended to remain unconscious after their earlier confessions, and told Mount Tai Sect that a single Profound Truth could still lead to a True Intent Prototype.
• Bai Pu explained that Na Bo Gang had retreated because he could not accept letting Bai Pu escape back to reality, while the Hua Xia Battle Group joined the battle against the demonic rebels.
• Prince Na Bo Gang told his generals that he had intentionally given up Lorich and Pavier Plateau to encourage Steel Heart’s team to keep pursuing its mission, then ordered a full retreat and recalled Ba Bo from Gadgetzan City.
• Na Bo Gang planned to close the trap when Steel Heart led his team into Lord Sarajael’s territory.

After Na Bo Gang retreated to seek repairs for his damaged Reverse Current Magic Pearl, Bai Pu turned the battle in favor of the Lorich Orthodoxy and broke through Feludo’s spatial defenses. He advanced through Feludo’s summoned creatures, leaving him within reach of the God Descendant.

• Na Bo Gang retreated to Sarajael’s territory because his Reverse Current Magic Pearl was damaged and he could no longer suppress Bai Pu.
• Bai Pu joined the Lorich Orthodoxy’s battle, killing enemy commanders and driving toward Feludo beneath Lorich Magic Academy.
• Bai Pu imitated the energy of Space-Time Interweave with Watching the Sea Magic Battle Qi, then used the Mountain Shattering Mystery to tear open its barrier.
• Bai Pu shattered Feludo’s magic shield with spear strikes after breaking through the barrier.
• Feludo summoned Hellfire Hounds and other creatures, but Bai Pu swept aside or killed them as he continued advancing.

Bai Pu killed Feludo while Ryan held off Sarajael’s Divine Power Aggregate, triggering the collapse of the Demon God rebels and the Native Faction. As the battle turned in their favor, Bai Pu realized his Magic Source Centers were destabilizing and that he urgently needed top-tier fire and wind Magic Sources.

• Ryan transformed into a dragon and restrained the Purple Flame Phoenix while Bai Pu pursued Feludo, avoiding his hidden extradimensional gateway.
• Bai Pu killed Feludo and obtained a dark gold loot treasure chest; Feludo’s death freed the violet-robed mages and dispersed Sarajael’s Divine Power Aggregate.
• Amaril and several classmates caught the badly burned Ryan, and a life-spirit mage used Light of Life to sustain him.
• The freed violet-robed mages joined the Lorich Orthodoxy, and the Demon God rebels’ forces began to mutiny and collapse.
• Bai Pu assessed his depleted condition and recognized that the Earth Dragon Pearl and Abyssal Pearl were causing his fire- and wind-element Magic Source Centers to shrink, so he resolved to seek top-tier sources of both elements.

After the battle, Bai Pu explained that his Magic Source Centers were on the verge of collapse and that he could no longer fight, so the Hua Xia Battle Group planned to find two wind-element Magic Sources and let him face Salagar afterward. The group split up to pursue the sources and Ryan’s Dragon King relics, while Na Bo Gang and Salagar remained threats.

• Bai Pu told Wu Mingyue, Wu Qingyun, Mount Tai Sect, Zhou Yu, and the other representatives that he could suppress his expanding Magic Source Centers for about ten days, but fighting would shorten that limit.
• Bai Pu explained that Na Bo Gang had likely withdrawn to repair the Reverse Current Magic Pearl, and Zhou Yu volunteered to deal with the Sea Race warrior Harkin.
• Bai Pu assigned the Wen Jiu Squad to search the Whistling Wind Highlands and the Fu Tu Squad to search the Pale Underground Palace for wind-element top-grade Magic Sources.
• Bai Pu rejected leaving a small force behind to investigate Salagar covertly, but told the group to follow up on Ryan’s tasks because Ryan was their main force against Salagar.
• Ryan set out to search three ancient battlefields for the Indestructible Scale, the Black Gold Claw, and the Dragon King's Heart, while Salagar prepared to send experts to stop him.

Bai Pu opened Feludo's Dark Gold Treasure Chest and drew several rare items, including a powerful but restricted S-Class Golden Item and a skill book that could tame Divine Descendant creatures. He also obtained a collection of God Descent rituals, while the looming threat of Sarajael's revival remained tied to the Hua Xia Battle Group's race for Ancient Relics.

• You Rooster went to relay Bai Pu's latest orders while Bai Pu kept Zhou Yu and Mount Tai Sect behind to watch Feludo's chest being opened.
• Bai Pu eliminated twenty low-value cards and drew Salagar's Empowered Feather, an S-Class Golden Item that could summon Salagar's Divine Power Aggregate but could not safely be used in Battle Demon World.
• Bai Pu drew God Descendant's Comfort, a skill book that could tame Divine Descendant creatures, and Wu Mingyue explained the rarity and power of such beings.
• Bai Pu considered the skill book potentially useful, recalling an earlier move he had made, while Mount Tai Sect dismissed it as impractical.
• Bai Pu drew the Encyclopedia of Divine Descent Rituals and found that its listed rituals required sacrificing extremely powerful creatures, leaving him doubtful of its practical value.

Bai Pu planned to unite the Battle Demon Continent’s strongest fighters against Sarajael while the conflict with her Red Sand Specter Legion continued. In the Red Sand Ancient King Mausoleum, Na Bo Gang persuaded Sarajael to recognize his importance and revealed his suspicion that Dio Fulei was chosen by the Gaia Will.

• Bai Pu reviewed Divine Envoy summoning rituals, then traveled to Gagison to advance his plan for a continent-wide Anti-Demon Alliance.
• The Wen Jiu Squad reported that Gagison’s forces were fighting Sarajael’s Red Sand Specter Legion around Sweetwater Oasis, where the True Red Domain marked the battlefront.
• Bai Pu planned to meet Academy Head Bosh and recruit the continent’s strongest native powerhouses to stop Sarajael’s revival.
• Sarajael berated Na Bo Gang for abandoning Feludo and demanded that he repair his purple weapon, but Na Bo Gang reminded her that he and his Sea Race legion were among her few remaining allies.
• Sarajael confronted Na Bo Gang about his three-star mission to kill Dio Fulei, and Na Bo Gang admitted he could not withdraw from the Battle Demon World.
• Na Bo Gang told Sarajael that Dio Fulei was likely chosen by the Gaia Will, whose protection had made the Divine Envoys wary of intervening.

Na Bo Gang persuaded Sarajael to repair his Reverse Current Magic Pearl in exchange for an Ancient Relic, then agreed to accept a hidden pawn’s conditions. At the Whistling Wind Highlands, Wen Jiu’s group investigated a battle between elemental factions and discovered that the Sea Race was also targeting the area.

• Sarajael agreed to repair Na Bo Gang’s Reverse Current Magic Pearl in exchange for an Ancient Relic and rejected his attempt to pressure her with Gaia Will’s seeded candidates.
• Na Bo Gang called a Radio Wave Conch and told a hidden pawn that he would accept the pawn’s conditions; the other party corrected him that their race had become part of the Sea Race.
• Wen Jiu, She Hun, and Yuan Liu arrived at the Whistling Wind Highlands to search for Demon God Fukalo’s divine-power remains and the wind Magic Source Steel Heart needed.
• She Hun sensed a battle between Wind Elemental Lord Belize’s faction and Stone Mother’s faction, and Wen Jiu directed the group to approach the Elemental Creatures.
• She Hun used Soul Suppression Seal to control a Sea Race awakened one, but a mental restriction caused his head to explode when she searched his memories.
• She Hun concluded from the incomplete memories that the Sea Race had also set its sights on the Whistling Wind Highlands.

Bai Pu asked Gagison Academy Head Bosh to help protect his friends while they sought the Magic Sources he needed, trading away a promised guidance session for Bosh’s aid. As Bosh agreed to go to the Whistling Wind Highlands, Na Bo Gang learned of the deployment and chose to target the Pale Underground Palace instead; You Rooster then brought Bai Pu news from the Highlands.

• Wen Jiu’s group decided to learn which faction the Sea Race supported and how strong its experts were, and Steel Heart promised reinforcements when needed.
• Bai Pu told Academy Head Bosh that his Magic Source Centers were unstable and that Sarajael’s followers were threatening his adventurer friends.
• Bai Pu asked Bosh to personally help his friends, and Bosh agreed in exchange for the guidance session he had previously promised.
• Na Bo Gang learned that Steel Heart was heading to the Whistling Wind Highlands and decided to attack the Pale Underground Palace instead.
• Bai Pu continued controlling his Magic Source Centers in his dormitory, and You Rooster arrived with news from the Whistling Wind Highlands.

Bai Pu warned his team to keep reinforcements secret while Fu Tu’s group infiltrated the Pale Underground Palace and seized the Wind God Gem. As Fu Tu endured its ten-second trial, a hostile mental voice ordered him to put it down.

• Bai Pu told You Rooster to reassure Wen Jiu, She Hun, and Yuan Liu about reinforcements while keeping the information secret from the other team.
• Several dozen Fu Tu Squad Awakened joined the Earth Spirit tribe and infiltrated the Pale Underground Palace’s rival factions.
• Fu Tu’s group used information from Bai Feng, who had joined the Cave Dweller faction, to break into the treasury and defeat its guardians.
• Fu Tu grabbed the Wind God Gem and used his God Throne title to increase his Endurance for the ten-second trial.
• A cold mental ripple ordered Fu Tu to put down the Wind God Gem as he neared the trial’s end.

Prince Na Bo Gang battled Fu Tu’s squad while attempting the Wind God Gem trial, but Academy Head Bosh Gadgetzan arrived and attacked him. Na Bo Gang survived Bosh’s Thunder God’s Whip and fought back, relying on Shift Position Exchange as Bosh pressed him.

• Na Bo Gang recognized that Steel Heart had summoned Bosh and fought back, dodging the whip with Shift Position Exchange while firing Pure Water Thorns.

Academy Head Bosh drove Prince Na Bo Gang from the Pale Underground Palace, only for Fu Tu to discover that the Wind God Gem was an illusion and the mission had failed. At the Whistling Wind Highlands, Wen Jiu fought the Sea Race general Pike with his Overlord-Style Throwing Profound Truth, but Pike survived the full combo and grabbed Wen Jiu's ankle.

• Academy Head Bosh struck at the Pale Underground Palace entrance with Heavenly Punishment Thunder after Prince Na Bo Gang escaped.
• Fu Tu discovered the Wind God Gem was an illusion created by Na Bo Gang, and Bai Feng said the mission had failed.
• At the Whistling Wind Highlands, the wind and rock elements began their decisive battle, with Wen Jiu's squad fighting for the rock faction.
• Bai Pu rushed to the battlefield while Wen Jiu attacked Pike with the three stages of his Overlord-Style Throwing Profound Truth.
• Pike survived Wen Jiu's combo and seized his ankle from the cracked ground.

Wen Jiu, She Hun, and Yuan Liu fought the Sea Race generals at Wind Throat Valley, where Ba Bo’s lightning attack overwhelmed the Hua Xia Battle Group and the rock elementals. Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun disrupted Ba Bo’s ultimate, then Bai Pu arrived as Steel Heart, prompting Pike and Harkin to consider withdrawing while Ba Bo challenged him.

• Pike dragged Wen Jiu into the earth while Harkin tried to strike him, but She Hun’s Stunning Spirit Seal forced Harkin away and Yuan Liu pulled Wen Jiu free.
• Ba Bo unleashed Myriad Lightning Heavenly Guidance while Pike trapped the Hua Xia Awakened in a mud-wave vortex, and the allies’ defensive items could not stop them from taking heavy damage.
• Wu Mingyue and Wu Qingyun attacked Ba Bo, and Wu Qingyun’s Dissolving Blood Battle Qi weakened his control while Wu Mingyue deflected his lightning into enemy forces.
