Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao questioned Skeleton Douluo and learned that the Holy Spirit Cult had grown across the Douluo Continent with help from the Sun Moon Continent. Skeleton Douluo died before revealing the Teleportation Array’s location, but Liu Xinghan suspected Feng Jiutian knew how to track Evil Spirit Masters.

Feng Jiutian returned to Phoenix Village with Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao, arriving on the Wind Dragon and alarming the Azure Phoenix Family before identifying his guests.

As the divine artifact fragments reacted near the volcano, Feng Jiutian brought out the Queen Bee and asked Liu Xinghan to take out the Soul Bone.

• Feng Jiutian summoned the giant Ten Thousand Year Queen Bee and told Liu Xinghan to take out the Soul Bone.

Liu Xinghan learned that the Soul Hunting Bee believed Blood Bat Venerable was dead, then left Phoenix Mountain with Ma Xiaotao after noticing his Divine Artifact Fragments react there. Two days later, they secretly returned to investigate the mountain’s guarded summit.

• Liu Xinghan gave Feng Jiutian a Soul Bone to help the Soul Hunting Queen Bee locate Blood Bat Venerable, but the bee’s reaction suggested that he was dead.
• Feng Jiutian asked Liu Xinghan to share any news about his granddaughter, and Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao departed.

• Two days later, Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao found ten guards, including a Soul Saint, and secretly flew toward the summit.
• Ma Xiaotao identified the Soul Hunting Bees as possible protectors of the mountain’s secret, and Liu Xinghan ordered her to eliminate them.

Liu Xinghan agreed to help Feng Jiutian search for his granddaughter and borrowed the Azure Phoenix Family’s Soul Hunting Bees to track Blood Bat Venerable using his Soul Bone. After claiming Skeleton Douluo’s remaining Soul Bones and setting out with Feng Jiutian and Ma Xiaotao, Liu Xinghan reached Phoenix Mountain, the Azure Phoenix Family’s hidden home.

• Liu Xinghan asked Feng Jiutian to use the Soul Hunting Bees to trace Blood Bat Venerable through the Soul Bone he had left behind, and Feng Jiutian agreed to try.
• Feng Jiutian explained that the Queen Bee stayed at the family’s base, so Liu Xinghan said Wind Dragon could make the bees obey with his Hundred-Thousand-Year strength.
• Ma Xiaotao reminded Liu Xinghan to collect the Soul Bones from Skeleton Douluo’s corpse, and he gave Feng Jiutian the weaker Right Leg Spirit Bone while keeping the Right Arm Spirit Bone.
• Liu Xinghan, Ma Xiaotao, and Feng Jiutian rode Wind Dragon toward Phoenix Mountain while the rest of the Azure Phoenix Family returned by land.
• Seven days later, Feng Jiutian guided the group to Phoenix Village, and Wind Dragon flew directly into the secluded valley instead of entering through its guarded cave.

Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao followed the Divine Artifact Fragment’s reaction into Phoenix Mountain’s magma, where they discovered a crimson palace. They breached its barrier and entered, leaving the palace’s secrets unexplored.

• Liu Xinghan told Ma Xiaotao he intended to bring the Azure Phoenix Family under his control and explained why their attack on the Soul Hunting Bees would not expose them.

• Ma Xiaotao shielded them with Scorching Phoenix Flame and led Liu Xinghan into the magma as they followed the signal.
• Ma Xiaotao sensed a hidden presence and used Phoenix True Body to reveal a divine crimson palace behind a barrier.
• Ma Xiaotao charged the palace’s barrier with Liu Xinghan, and they passed through it into the palace grounds.

Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao discovered the Fire God Palace and learned that the Azure Phoenix Family had long sought the Fire God Seat for Liu Xiaofeng. The Red-robed Divine Envoy explained that they could begin the test by opening the palace doors with fire, leaving Ma Xiaotao ready to try.

• Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao explored the divine hall protected from the magma and found its doors impossible to open by force.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy introduced himself as the Fire God Palace's envoy and told them Feng Wutian had visited a thousand years earlier but failed to earn the Fire God's recognition.
• Liu Xinghan realized Feng Wutian had been an Azure Phoenix Family expert who hoped a descendant would inherit the Fire God Seat, and he judged Ma Xiaotao more suited to its fire attribute than Liu Xiaofeng.
• Liu Xinghan urged Ma Xiaotao to try for the Fire God Seat, saying he aimed to inherit a God King's position instead.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy said the first test was to push open the palace doors using fire, and Liu Xinghan questioned whether gaining recognition could be so easy.

Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao entered the Fire God’s divine hall, where Ma Xiaotao gained recognition for the Nine Trials of the Fire God. The recognition evolved her martial soul and raised her Soul Power to level ninety-six.

• Ma Xiaotao used her Extreme Phoenix Flame to open the divine hall’s gates.
• Inside the hall, Liu Xinghan sensed Divine Source Power, and the Red-robed Divine Envoy explained that it was energy normally sensed only by gods.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy led Liu Xinghan and Ma Xiaotao to the altar and instructed Ma Xiaotao to touch the crystal sculpture.
• Ma Xiaotao passed the Fire God’s test and received the Nine Trials of the Fire God, while Liu Xinghan’s Divine Artifact Fragments shielded him from the divine pressure.
• A golden-red flame mark appeared on Ma Xiaotao’s brow, her Twin-Headed Fire Phoenix evolved into a nine-headed golden-red phoenix, and her Soul Power rose to level ninety-six.

After Ma Xiaotao gained recognition from the Fire God Seat and her martial soul evolved, Liu Xinghan tried the crystal flame statue and was also chosen for the Nine Trials. The Divine Artifact Fragment inside him absorbed the Fire God's power, destroyed the Fire God's will, and shattered the statue, leaving the Red-robed Divine Envoy stunned.

• Ma Xiaotao's martial soul transformed and her Soul Power rose after she gained recognition from the Fire God Seat.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy told Ma Xiaotao she could inherit the Fire God position after completing nine trials, then invited Liu Xinghan to try the statue.
• Liu Xinghan touched the crystal flame statue and was chosen for the Nine Trials of the Fire God, entering a world of flames where the Fire God's will tried to mark him.
• The Divine Artifact Fragment repeatedly absorbed the Fire God's power, then released a black-and-white beam that destroyed the Fire God's will.
• The Divine Artifact Fragment absorbed the power of the flame world until it collapsed, and the crystal flame statue shattered in the divine hall.

Liu Xinghan shattered the Godhood Crystal by destroying the Fire God's divine sense incarnation, though he hid his role from the Red-robed Divine Envoy. The Envoy forced Ma Xiaotao to choose between beginning the Nine Trials of the Fire God without Liu Xinghan or dying with him.

• In the God Realm, the Fire God discovered that his Divine Sense Clone on Douluo Star had vanished, and the other gods suspected the Sea God might be responsible.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy and Ma Xiaotao saw that the Godhood Crystal had shattered after Liu Xinghan touched it; Liu Xinghan woke with his Soul Power raised to level thirty-eight and pretended he did not know what had happened.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy explained that the broken crystal would not affect Ma Xiaotao's recognized inheritance, but would prevent any future candidate from gaining the Fire God Seat if she failed the trials.
• The Red-robed Divine Envoy ordered Ma Xiaotao to begin the Nine Trials and told Liu Xinghan to leave, warning that the trials could take years or decades.
• Ma Xiaotao refused to start the trials if it meant leaving Liu Xinghan alone, so the Red-robed Divine Envoy threatened to kill them both unless they chose between her trial and death.

Liu Xinghan left Ma Xiaotao to inherit the Fire God’s divine position and returned to the summit, where he summoned Wind Dragon and headed back toward Spirit Hall. After Liu Xinghan and Wind Dragon flew away, an Azure Phoenix Family guard reported their presence to Feng Qiankun.

• Liu Xinghan agreed to leave Ma Xiaotao in the Fire God’s palace to complete the inheritance, and the Red-robed Divine Envoy sent him back to Phoenix Mountain’s summit.
• Liu Xinghan summoned Wind Dragon, explained that Ma Xiaotao was inheriting the Fire God’s divine position, and warned Wind Dragon to wait for her return.
• Liu Xinghan bet Wind Dragon that he would become a god, with the loser having to eat a full serving of shit.
• Liu Xinghan rode Wind Dragon toward Spirit Hall, while an Azure Phoenix Family Soul Saint spotted them taking flight and hurried to report it.
• Feng Qiankun stood up in alarm when the guard told him that Liu Xinghan’s Wind Dragon had appeared on Phoenix Mountain’s main peak.

Feng Cangqiong and Feng Jiutian investigated the disappearance of the Soul Hunting Bees and worried that Liu Xinghan might have found the Azure Phoenix Family’s hidden temple. Near Spirit City, Liu Xinghan left the Wind Dragon in a forest and tried to buy a horse from two travelers, preparing to use force if they refused.

• Feng Cangqiong told Feng Jiutian that Liu Xinghan was still near Phoenix Mountain, and they hurried to the Soul Hunting Bees’ cave.
• They found the hive and every bee gone, and Feng Cangqiong suspected Ma Xiaotao, but Feng Jiutian said they could not challenge Spirit Hall and should focus on finding Little Demon.
• Five days later, Liu Xinghan brought the Wind Dragon to a forest near Spirit City and ordered it to stay away from the city before returning alone.
• Liu Xinghan spotted two travelers on Sky Qilin Horses and threw a rock to stop them.
• The Blond Man shattered the rock and questioned Liu Xinghan, who asked to buy a horse; the woman in black angrily objected, while Liu Xinghan considered using force if they refused.

Liu Xinghan fought Dai Weisi over the Qilin Horse and tested the Thunderclap Spear against the Star Luo Empire prince. Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to counter Liu Xinghan’s strongest spear strike, and the chapter ended with the Thunderclap Spear flying back and embedding itself in the ground.

• Liu Xinghan refused to back down when Dai Weisi rejected his demand for the Qilin Horse, and he struck Dai Weisi hard enough to stagger him.

• Dai Weisi called on Zhu Zhuyun to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, summoning an enormous White Tiger that collided with the thunder dragon.
• The forces erupted in a powerful blast, and the Thunderclap Spear flew backward and plunged into the ground.

Liu Xinghan defeated Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun’s Hell White Tiger Martial Soul Fusion Skill, then took a Sky Kirin Horse and continued to Spirit City. He arrived after dark and headed to the Papal Palace to warn his teacher about the Evil Spirit Masters and discuss the Wind Dragon.

• Liu Xinghan summoned the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear, which overpowered the Hell White Tiger and defeated Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun.
