Li Qi refused invitations to join or establish a district faction, but offered King Xiang Zhu and King Zu Xiang a chance to buy his valuable spoils through private trade.

After cultivating in Taz World, Li Qi explored the inner region of the Sacrificial Grounds and gathered enough wealth to buy a pseudo true treasure armor. In Chaos City, he returned the Frost Armor to Ice Peak Lord, who gave him the true treasure Wandering Dragon Awakening Spear, which felt strangely familiar to Li Qi.

• Li Qi entered the Xuannu Secret Realm in the Dark Chi spacecraft and set a course for the Star of Wailing.
• A peak king-level Picha Tribe immortal teleported into the spacecraft's path, and Li Qi stored the vessel before confronting it.

Li Qi cultivated his will and mastered the first volume of the soul secret art Twisted Illusory Annihilation Eye at the bottom of a canyon on Star of Wailing. When the planet began to shake, he emerged to investigate and saw King Zhu Yi fleeing pursuers who demanded the Soul-Shaking Stone.

• Li Qi descended through Star of Wailing’s canyons, found one deep enough to affect his will, and spent a century gradually adapting to its wailing at the canyon floor.
• Li Qi mastered Twisted Eye, bought the first three volumes of Twisted Illusory Annihilation Eye, and began cultivating the new soul art despite its intense pain.
• Li Qi mastered the first volume and found that the canyon’s wailing affected him only slightly, so he planned to move deeper after further cultivation.
• The canyon and Star of Wailing began shaking, and Li Qi learned from other cultivators that King Li Yan had forbidden fighting in the canyon.
• Li Qi teleported above the canyon and saw four pursuers chasing King Zhu Yi, while two king-level immortals blocked the fleeing warrior and demanded that he surrender the Soul-Shaking Stone.

The Soul-Shaking Stone’s appearance sparked a massive battle among King-level Immortals, and King Zhu Yi was attacked even after throwing it away. Li Qi entered the fray, killed a high King-level Immortal in one strike, and drove most of the combatants to flee as he moved to claim the treasure.

• News that King Zhu Yi possessed Soul-Shaking Stone spread widely, drawing King-level Immortals toward him while others fled the coming battle.
• As dozens of experts attacked, King Zhu Yi threw the Soul-Shaking Stone toward a Weita Tribe King-level Immortal, who immediately lost it amid the assault.

Li Qi, using the self-chosen name King Kong He, defeated King Li Yan in a fight over the Soul-Shaking Stone and returned to Human Territory with it. His apparent strength as an unknown, near-invincible human king attracted the attention of alien immortals and Universe Venerables, and he took refuge in the Primordial Secret Realm.

• Li Qi struck King Li Yan repeatedly with the Startled Dragon Spear, damaging his divine body and forcing him to burn divine power to fight back.

• Li Qi entered the Primordial Secret Realm to avoid a Universe Venerable tracing his teleportation and following him.

Li Qi contributed 1.8 tons of Soul-Shaking Stone to the Human Race in exchange for two treasure points, then traveled to Chaos City to choose a battle armor from the Race Treasure Vault.

• Li Qi exchanged for the Furious Roar Armor, bound it to himself, and returned to his manor in the Primordial Secret Realm.
• A five-star Universe Venerable searched for King Kong He, hoping to buy the Soul-Shaking Stone, but his king-level immortal could find no contact information.
• Li Qi restored King Chi Cha's divine power, learned where he had placed divine power tokens, and ordered him to teleport them to the Liyutu Secret Realm.
• Li Qi arrived at the Scarlet Chill Sea and chose to descend cautiously, beginning with a shallow dive before continuing toward the seabed.

Li Qi reached a bottleneck in tempering his soul will and decided to search for traces of the Wood Beast God. On the way to the Huo Li Secret Realm, he killed a Youling Race immortal who attacked him and revealed that Li Qi was an invincible King-level expert.

• Li Qi tempered his soul will in the Scarlet Chill Sea for a hundred years while the three peak races placed bounties on King Kong He, but his progress stalled at a bottleneck.
• After testing other soul-tempering locations, Li Qi decided to seek traces of the Wood Beast God and chose to visit the Huo Li Secret Realm.
• A peak King-level immortal of the Youling Race appeared nearby and attacked Li Qi, but Li Qi blocked the strike unharmed.
• The Youling Race immortal fled, but Li Qi used spatial sealing and the No. 2 Branch of the Kuyu Ancient Tree to trap and kill him with one spear thrust.
• Li Qi collected the Youling Race immortal’s spoils and had King Chi Cha use divine kingdom teleportation to take them toward the Huo Li Secret Realm.

Li Qi explored the Huo Li Secret Realm before following the Wood Beast God's traces to the Gongcha Secret Realm, where he learned about the North Star Secret Realm and Realm Master Zhenqi. He reached the canyon where the Wood Beast God had stayed and discovered that Zhenqi was a powerful guardian cult master of the Ancestral God Cult.

• Li Qi searched the Huo Li Secret Realm for half a year, collected G-grade metals, and then sent King Chi Cha to teleport him to the Gongcha Secret Realm.
• Li Qi arrived on Cloud Sea Continent and found that the Limi Race had settled there, so he agreed not to disturb its people.

• Li Qi paid extra for information about Zhenqi's lectures, then used the Virtual Universe to learn that Zhenqi was a guardian cult master of the Ancestral God Cult.
• Li Qi reached the canyon where the Wood Beast God had once stayed.

Li Qi searched the places where the Wood Beast God had left traces, found several statues and enslaved powerful immortals, then reached the Glow Continent to study its Beast God Statues. In Yanmo City, Maple Radiance King recognized him as King Kong He, and Li Qi concealed his identity while explaining that even an invincible king-level expert like him was far inferior to Li Qi.

• Li Qi failed to reproduce the divine bearing of the Wood Beast God Statue on the Cloud Sea Continent and concluded that someone had tampered with it.
• Li Qi explored the Gongcha and Kulu Secret Realms, finding a damaged statue and soul enslaving Mist Ridge King.

• Maple Radiance King asked whether King Kong He could enter the Ancestral God Cult, and Li Qi claimed that his race's genius Li Qi surpassed him in background and potential before leaving to see the Beast God Statues.

Li Qi reached Yanmo City and observed the Wood Beast God Statue, where his identity as King Kong He brought him into conflict with Venerable Xuanmai. After examining the Beast God Stele, he returned to the statue and began copying its scales to advance his understanding of the Wood-Space Fusion Law.

• Li Qi entered the area reserved for universe venerables and invincible king-level immortals, and King Baili warned him before learning he was King Kong He.
• Venerable Xuanmai ordered Li Qi to leave, but Li Qi asserted his status and continued observing the statue; Xuanmai later found King Kong He on the Human Race bounty list and vowed to confront him.
• Li Qi recorded the statue's scales, then visited the Beast God Stele and concluded that its basic explanations offered little help to his cultivation.
• Li Qi returned to the Wood Beast God Statue and had his Kuyu Ancient Tree avatar copy its scales, though the statue's exceptional quality made them difficult to reproduce.

Li Qi spent more than 2,700 years studying and copying the Beast God Statue’s scales, greatly advancing his Wood-Space Fusion Law comprehension before taking a break on Glow Continent. There, disguised as the invincible King Kong He, he rescued King Qi Jian from three Demon Race Kings and gave him his contact information.

• No. 2 Branch began copying the Beast God Statue one scale at a time, using the Wood-Space Fusion Law ripples to improve its comprehension.
• After more than 2,700 years of secluded cultivation, Li Qi could copy several thousand scales at once and had created a technique stronger than Lightning Flash.
• Li Qi went to a tavern in Yanmo City, where King Nie Zhan, King Chi Yu, and another Demon Race King confronted King Qi Jian and threatened to make him lose divine power.
• Li Qi arrived as King Kong He and stopped the Demon Race Kings from attacking; King Chi Yu called off the confrontation because of Kong He’s reputation.
• Li Qi praised King Qi Jian for standing his ground, shared his contact number, and then flew with him toward the Beast God Statue.
