• Su He tested the two bodies and realized Bai Ling’s voice was repeating two prerecorded phrases: “Surprise or not?” and “Call me Sis.”
• Su He threatened to throw a tantrum, and Bai Ling’s voice finally said, “Okay, okay!”

Su He learned from Barren Ancestor that Bai Ling’s tomb held a failed revival method, then witnessed a fragment of Bai Ling’s consciousness perform a dance that might be a cultivation art. He left the tomb with Yu Zhu’er and began considering how to strengthen himself before the Dragon God Ceremony.

• Su Hua Nian challenged Su He with her sword and domain, defeated him, and explained that a domain revealed its wielder’s heart and thoughts.

Su Hua Nian gave Su He part of her lightning domain to strengthen his Mountain God Seal, and Su He learned that she was an Immortal Venerable Tantai Reincarnation whose past-life inheritance could help restore Ya Ya’s Source. After securing his Small World and advancing his cultivation, Su He began half a year of combat training with Su Hua Nian, who immediately put him through a brutal lesson.

• Su Hua Nian gave Su He half of her regenerating lightning pool, and he stored it to refine into his Mountain God Seal before lending her the Bright Mirror.

• At dawn, Su Hua Nian began training Su He by attacking him with lightning, water, and snow while teaching him to use Water Control and his domain more subtly.

Su He completed the Mountain God Seal, which took the form of a golden die and grew stronger with repeated use, and tested it against Su Hua Nian.

• After sparring with Su Hua Nian for three months, Su He completed the Mountain God Seal, which condensed into a golden die.
• Su He tested the seal in the White Spirit Small World, unleashed a devastating tsunami, and then fought Su Hua Nian with the new divine ability.

• Su He sent Su Hua Nian back to the island and planned to master Chaotic Blades, a full-range attack that could harm every living being, including himself.
• Ancient Lo called Su He into the Mountains and Seas Profound Realm to receive the revised Beast Transformation Scripture.

Su He received Ancient Lo’s revised Beast Transformation Scripture and the Bronze Pot for Feng Ya Ya, then discovered that his Inner World was forming a Heaven Opening Divine Artifact in the shaman’s likeness. He left the artifact incomplete and wondered whether Grand Ancestor Tai’s Tai Hexagram could help him open the First Layer of Heaven.

• Su He visited Ancient Lo in the Mountains and Seas Profound Realm and received the revised Beast Transformation Scripture as Ancient Lo prepared to merge with the Soaring Serpent.

Su He continued strengthening his Dao foundation, then learned that the Peacock Essence Blood protecting Feng Ya Ya prevented Su Hua Nian from carrying out her treatment. As he prepared for the Dragon God Ceremony, Dragon Xuan visited and explained that its dragons would experience life as mortal beasts.

• Su He cultivated while absorbing the Dragon Turtle Inheritance, and Chou Nuer and Yu Zhu'er summoned him to meet Su Hua Nian.

Su He arrived at Cloud Dream Marsh for the Dragon God Ceremony and learned that the young divine beasts had to compete for caves on Sinking Wind Mountain. When Bai Ling’s old rivals tried to goad him into embarrassing himself, he claimed he would stay in Bai Ling’s cave, then secretly entered the mountain and drew a crowd of challengers after him.

• The Cloud Dream Dragon King welcomed Su He, Feng Jiu, and Meng Xuan to Cloud Dream Marsh before leaving them in his daughter’s care.
• Meng Xuan brought Su He to an island and explained that the young beasts had to climb Sinking Wind Mountain to win cave tokens.

• The surrounding beasts urged Su He to avoid Sinking Wind Mountain, but he announced that he would stay in Bai Ling’s cave, silencing them.
• Su He turned invisible and entered Sinking Wind Mountain; when his name appeared on the Crystal Jade Wall, more than ten beasts rushed to challenge him.

Su He fought off a group of young divine beasts on Sinking Wind Mountain, using his domain and increasingly powerful Mountain God Seals to defeat the Open Heaven First Layer attackers. As five Open Heaven Two Levels beasts prepared to face him, Ji Feixue wagered with Greedy Wolf that Su He would win, and the next battle was about to begin.

• The divine beasts entered Sinking Wind Mountain and Su He used Snow Concealment, his domain, and Thousand Jun hail to trap six of them and make their domains collide.
• Su He struck the Double Pupil Bird repeatedly with increasingly powerful Mountain God Seals, defeated it, and forced the adult Double Pupil Bird to withdraw after it shielded its cub.

• Bi Fang and Greedy Wolf moved toward Su He with the remaining Three-Headed Divine Beast as the next battle began.

Su He fought five divine beasts at the foot of Sinking Wind Mountain, using Chaotic Blades and Greedy Wolf’s blessing to injure Bi Fang and Zhu Yan. After Zhu Yan sealed his divine abilities and the others launched a water-and-fire attack, Su He refused to accept its surrender and drove it toward the collision.

• Su He targeted Zhu Yan, but Bi Fang intervened, Zheng restricted Su He’s spatial movement, and the other beasts joined the fight.
• Su He spread his domain and used Chaotic Blades to strike Bi Fang and Zhu Yan in both their physical and illusory forms.
• Greedy Wolf blessed Su He’s Chaotic Blades, increasing their power and severely wounding Bi Fang and Zhu Yan as they struck Su He too.
• Su He used Zhu Yan as a shield against the blades, but Zhu Yan revealed that its blood sealed divine abilities and signaled Fu Zhu and Zheng to attack with water and fire.
• Su He refused Zhu Yan’s surrender and charged it toward the point where the water and fire were about to collide.

Su He fought his way up Sinking Wind Mountain, discovered that the mountain contained Dui Hexagram Dao resonance, and defeated Bi Fang after it broke the rules by using a magical treasure. Greedy Wolf admitted defeat, leaving Su He’s victory and his growing reputation before the Dragon God Ceremony.

• Su He forced Zhu Yan into the clash of water and fire, then warned it not to speak unless it wanted another beating.
• Su He climbed into Sinking Wind Mountain’s formation as Greedy Wolf, Zheng, and Bi Fang followed, while Fu Zhu stayed behind.
• Inside the mountain, Su He’s Lesser Dui Hexagram absorbed Dui Hexagram Dao resonance from Cloud Dream Marsh, forcing him to withdraw from the second region.
• Bi Fang used a magical treasure to attack Su He, so Su He bit away part of Bi Fang’s flames with the Gluttony Eating Method and struck it down with the Mountain God Seal.
• An adult Bi Fang rescued the injured young Bi Fang, gave Su He the magical treasure as compensation, and confined the young beast to Zhang'e Mountain for ten thousand years.
• Ji Feixue asked Greedy Wolf whether it would continue the wager, and Greedy Wolf admitted defeat.

Su He absorbed the Dui Hexagram’s Dao charm in the second region, where the Earth Coat protected a HengGong Fish from the lethal water essence. As the Dao charm began forming a new Heaven Opening Divine Artifact, Su He stayed to cultivate, then woke to find that Aunt wanted to see him.

• Meng Xuan identified Bi Fang’s robe as an Earth Coat, the embryonic membrane of a naturally formed Small World, and advised Su He to put it away before climbing further.
• The Golden Dragon hinted that the Dui Hexagram’s water essence would benefit Su He, so he entered the second region and let his Lesser Dui Hexagram absorb its Dao charm.
• When the HengGong Fish removed her protective light and was badly injured by the water essence, Su He wrapped her in the Earth Coat and saved her.
• The Greedy Wolf approached Su He while he was comprehending, but the Zhen stopped it from disturbing him; the Greedy Wolf then continued toward the mountaintop.
• Su He’s Lesser Dui Hexagram began forming a brush as a new Heaven Opening Divine Artifact, and he decided to remain in the region and cultivate until the Dragon God Ceremony.
• After Su He woke before dawn, the Little Golden Dragon told him that Aunt wanted to see him, and a maid greeted him as an esteemed guest.

Su He met Ji Feixue, who gave him an unknown pill and took both pieces of his Earth Coat. After he left, Ji Feixue used the matching pieces to open a White Jade Box containing memories Bai Ling had hidden from her.

• Ji Feixue fed Su He an unknown pill and said she had forgotten why she had summoned him.
• Su He showed Ji Feixue his Earth Coat, and she took both identical pieces before sending him away and promising him the best prize at the Dragon God Ceremony.
• Ji Feixue placed the Earth Coat pieces in arrays beside a White Jade Box, opening it and revealing a ball of memories that merged into her own.

Su He received the Bai Ze List’s ranking and, after returning to Sinking Wind Mountain, absorbed the Dui Hexagram’s Dao rhythm through Ji Feixue’s pills. Meanwhile, Feng Yi Ju and the Scholar discussed their plans in the Non-Phase Sword Sect’s water prison, leaving the Scholar hoping Zhu Yan could help stop the Dragon Turtle.

• A sorrowful white dragon rose from Cloud Dream Marsh, asked Su He if she was beautiful, and returned beneath the water after he praised her.
• Liu Ru offered Su He Sky Piercer in exchange for the earth coat, but he refused the treasure and accepted her invitation to visit Cloud Dream Marsh.
• Meng Xuan showed Su He the Bai Ze List, where he ranked 89,973rd on the Young Dragon Ranking, and explained Bai Ling’s history on the War Ranking.
• Su He returned to Sinking Wind Mountain, entered secluded cultivation, and saw pill-borne visions showing how naturally opened Small Worlds produced earth coat.
• In the Non-Phase Sword Sect’s water prison, Feng Yi Ju and the Scholar agreed to avoid further moves in Eastern Cloud while they sought to increase their strength.
• The Scholar revealed his Withered River Clan’s worship of Zhu Yan and asked Feng Yi Ju to release him so he could seek Zhu Yan’s help against the Dragon Turtle, but Feng Yi Ju refused.
