• They explored the outer region for more than half a day but found nothing of value.
• Ah Da pointed out the core region, where thousands of enormous meteorites formed a continent floating in the void.

Wei Yang and Ah Da reached the Bronze Great Hall at the center of the Void Meteorite Ruins, where Ah Da recounted the treasures he had found in the surrounding buildings. Wei Yang’s attempts to open the hall failed, and his full-force punch shook the entire continent without moving its doors.

• News spread that the Stone Clan had mysteriously vanished after the Ling Clan, leading people to suspect that someone was systematically hunting the Ancient Imperial Clans.

The Stone Clan vanished overnight, intensifying suspicions between the ancient clans and prompting the Yao Clan, Thunder Clan, and Yan Clan to form an alliance. More than two years after the Demonic Flame descended, Wei Yang awakened in the Void Meteorite Ruins with a fully formed Emperor Soul.

• The Stone Clan disappeared from its sealed Small World, leaving its millions of clansmen and experts gone without a trace.

• Wei Yang found the golden Nine Profound Golden Lightning Dragon, a quasi-Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object that could rival the top three Heavenly Flames once sentient.

• Wei Yang recognized the golden dragon as a rare treasure formed from Nine Profound Golden Lightning, hidden in the deepest part of the Void Lightning Pool.
• Wei Yang assessed that the dragon's strength was around seven-star level and believed his own lightning resistance gave him an advantage.
• The Golden Lightning Dragon opened its eyes and fired a massive bolt of golden lightning at Wei Yang.
• Wei Yang was blasted through several layers of space and sent flying thousands of meters before he steadied himself.
• Wei Yang endured the lightning's effects and absorbed its destructive energy, converting it into power for himself.

Wei Yang watched the Nine Profound Golden Lightning attempt to gather spirit, hoping to claim it while it was weakened. The Black Demonic Lightning tried to help it endure the backlash, but the explosions kept growing more violent, leaving its spirit gathering on the verge of failure.

• Wei Yang realized that devouring a strand of Nine Profound Golden Lightning had stabilized him at the mid Seven-star stage.
• The Nine Profound Golden Lightning Dragon began gathering spirit, and Wei Yang waited nearby, expecting its weakened state to make it easy to subdue.
• Violent internal backlash repeatedly blasted away the liveliness emerging in the dragon's eyes.
• The Black Demonic Lightning rushed into the dragon's body to help suppress the backlash, dimming the dragon as its spirituality grew.
• Wei Yang judged that the backlash was multiplying too quickly for the Black Demonic Lightning to contain, and the Nine Profound Golden Lightning's spirit gathering seemed doomed to fail.

• Little Gold completed its fusion with the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, gaining Thunder Flame Power and recovering to the strength of a mid-tier Half-Saint.

Wei Yang tested the power of Little Gold, the newborn lightning flame created from the Nine Profound Golden Thunder and the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, then named it the Nine Profound Golden Thunder Flame. He transformed Little Gold into a child and left the Void Lightning Pool with him for Starfall Pavilion, which Wei Yang called their home.
