Ch. 244Worldly Malice
Gu Yi killed the Polaris Pagoda Master, took control of the Polar Star Pagoda, and recovered from his battle with the Bloodkill Plains Master. He then investigated the eleventh world connected to the Myriad Worlds Gate, where its Heavenly Dao struck down his first avatar before source energy let a second avatar pass unnoticed.
- Gu Yi traveled to the Polar Star Pagoda and killed the Polaris Pagoda Master before he could activate the chamber’s defenses.
- Gu Yi absorbed the Polaris Pagoda Master’s soul into the Ghost Soul Banner and took his treasures, while the pagoda’s enslaved Venerables regained their freedom.
- Gu Yi recovered on the fifth floor, summoned Lin Ming to resume the King's Cage trial, and learned that the Myriad Worlds Gate had connected to an eleventh world.
- Gu Yi sent a Blood Shadow Avatar into the new world, where a heavenly tribulation destroyed it, then used source energy to transform a second avatar and evade the Heavenly Dao’s attack.
- The second avatar searched for ten days, encountered powerful cultivators traveling in the same direction, and headed after them toward a likely gathering place.
