Long Haochen and his companions fought two Skeleton Knights in the Tower of Eternity, and the knights’ devastating charges pushed the team to rely on one another. The chapter ended as Lin Xin detonated his spell against the returning Skeleton Knight while the others prepared to defend.

• The Skeleton Knights shattered Long Haochen’s Light Slash Swords and attacked with a coordinated charge, but Long Haochen met one knight’s spear with Asura Slash.
• Long Haochen’s strike shattered the knight’s spear and horse, and Sima Xian absorbed the golden and white light released when the others finished the fallen enemy.

• The Skeleton Knight’s Charge Thrust dispersed Wang Yuanyuan’s attack, but Lin Xin detonated his Fire Incantation Technique against the spear.

Long Haochen's squad defeated the Skeleton Knight, learned that the Tower of Eternity's skill rewards could only be absorbed by compatible people, and returned to Zhennan Pass to recover. When they could not teleport back after an hour, Wang Yuanyuan suspected the Tower limited entry to conserve energy, leaving the squad to test how long they had to wait.

• Han Yu blocked the Skeleton Knight's thrown spear with Sima Xian's support, and Lin Xin received the rewards for killing the enemy.

• Long Haochen teleported the squad from the Tower of Eternity back to the Priest Temple at Zhennan Pass, where they treated their injuries and restored their strength.
• After the squad recovered, Long Haochen failed to teleport them back, and Wang Yuanyuan proposed that the Tower limited entry to conserve energy.

Long Haochen and his companions returned to the Tower of Eternity and cleared its first four trials, with the evolved Evil Eye and Lin Xin’s magic helping them defeat a group of ten sixth-step enemies. They chose to stop after the battle and rest before facing the next trial.

• After six hours, Long Haochen used the Eternal Melody to return with his companions to the Tower of Eternity and concluded that they could enter twice a day.
• Han Yu’s Evil Eye evolved to seventh-level demon-beast strength, and the group cleared the first three trials with less difficulty, distributing the rewards among their members.
• Long Haochen drew four resentful spirit assassins toward himself while Lin Xin struck them and the six skeleton warriors with a precisely aimed Fire Incantation Technique.
• The Evil Eye disrupted the enemies, and Long Haochen, Han Yu, Sima Xian, Wang Yuanyuan, and Cai'er destroyed the six skeleton warriors.
• After praising Lin Xin’s role in the victory, Long Haochen and the others decided not to proceed because they were tired and the next trial could be more dangerous.

Long Haochen and his companions learned the Tower of Eternity’s trial patterns and rapidly reached the Fifth Order bottleneck, but Long Haochen found that the first floor’s spiritual power orbs stopped helping him at five thousand. They began the sixth trial and encountered a red Soul of the Strong merging with a skeleton warrior.

• Long Haochen left Cai'er cultivating in the Tower of Eternity while he and the others returned to recover, then brought them back six hours later.
• The group fought the fourth trial again, discovered that passing it permanently removed the first three trials, and later cleared the fifth trial with Lin Xin’s help.
• After ten days of training, Cai'er, Lin Xin, Han Yu, and Wang Yuanyuan reached the four-thousand-spiritual-power bottleneck, followed by Sima Xian and Chen Ying'er two days later.
• Long Haochen passed five thousand Internal Spiritual Power, but the spiritual power orbs no longer increased it, so he proposed challenging the sixth trial to test the tower’s limits and build pressure for a breakthrough.
• During their first attempt at the sixth trial, a red Soul of the Strong descended through a pillar of light and fused with a skeleton warrior, transforming it into a towering, fiery-red creature.

The General Grade Twenty-First Demon Hunter Squad faced a Red Skeleton whose sixth-step spiritual energy concealed extraordinary technique and battle sense. It defeated all seven without killing them, then returned to its starting place as Long Haochen realized how completely outmatched they had been.

• The Red Skeleton approached Long Haochen and struck with a Flame Asura Slash, overpowering his shield techniques and sending him flying.
• The Red Skeleton evaded the squad’s attacks, bypassed Long Haochen’s Holy Guiding Spirit Furnace, and reached Sima Xian from behind.
• The Red Skeleton’s blade stopped at Sima Xian’s neck before it struck him flat-handed and sent him flying, while golden light flashed over the squad.
• The Red Skeleton defeated the squad one by one, then stopped attacking and returned to where it had first appeared.
• Long Haochen and Sima Xian discussed the Red Skeleton’s strength, and Long Haochen concluded that its seamless technique had overwhelmed them despite its sixth-step spiritual energy.

Long Haochen and his companions trained against the Red Skeleton for ten days, improving their combat techniques before resting and cultivating as Dream Paradise drew near. Han Qian then told Long Haochen that competition for entry had forced the Alliance to replace his and Cai'er's reserved places with selection matches, which Long Haochen agreed to enter.

• Long Haochen concluded that the Red Skeleton used ancient combat techniques and ordered each companion to challenge it individually for training.

• Cai'er challenged the Red Skeleton again in the Tower of Eternity and lasted longer against its attacks than Long Haochen had.

Chen Ying'er entered her first match against a water-element mage, and McDull's evasive charge ended with a Bloodthirsty Berserker Demon bursting from the mage's ice prison.

• Long Haochen and Cai'er held out against the Red Skeleton for five minutes, and Long Haochen completed ten battles before returning to rest.

• The mage trapped McDull in ice walls, but a Bloodthirsty Berserker Demon burst out and broke through his defenses.

Chen Ying'er’s transformed McDull Little Pig defeated her opponent and startled the tournament’s observers before Lin Xin entered the arena for his own match. Lin Xin waited until a Sixth Order wind warrior closed in, then cast Repelling Fire Ring, leaving the result of their clash unresolved.

• Chen Ying'er revealed that the Bloodthirsty Berserker Demon was her Natal Summoned Beast, McDull Little Pig, which dodged the referee’s attack and returned to pig form.

• Ling Xiao and Han Qian gathered the Alliance delegation to escort the ten selected participants to Dream Paradise.
• Huang Shuo arrived with Black Dragon Guard, Moon Demon, and Star Demon powerhouses, and he and Ling Xiao agreed to proceed under their earlier arrangement.
• The Alliance and Devil Race flew north on Azure Rocs and Black Dragons, and Long Haochen recognized Moonlit Night and Leng Xiao among the chosen devils.
• Cai'er told Long Haochen that she could control Moonlit Night's life with a restriction she had planted, and they agreed she was too valuable to abandon.
• Both delegations entered the Dream Forest on foot, where Long Haochen felt the forest's magic soothe and cleanse him.

Ling Xiao led the Holy Temple Alliance and the Devil Race through Dream Forest to the lake where Dream God Temple would appear. As the two groups waited for it to open, Long Haochen sensed a strange familiarity with the Devil Race’s black-haired leader and continued to absorb the lake’s pure nature aura.

• Long Haochen and Cai'er felt Nature's Call cleanse them as the Devil Race struggled against Dream Forest's life-filled aura.

• Long Haochen exchanged gazes with the black-haired, black-eyed Devil Race leader, sensed no natural hostility between them, and continued absorbing the pure nature aura.

The Dream God Temple emerged from the lake at dawn, and Long Haochen, Cai'er, and the other human and Devil Race experts entered Dream Paradise. Long Haochen arrived in the mysterious realm separated from Cai'er, while Han Qian stayed outside to deter the Devil Race as he waited for him.

• After a full day and night of waiting, the Dream God Temple rose from the lake at dawn, filling the area with powerful life energy.

• Long Haochen arrived in another world, while Han Qian told a Mithril Base Battle Armor knight that Haochen had entered and the knight chose to wait outside, warning that his presence restrained Huang Shuo.

Long Haochen successfully contacted the Tower of Eternity from Dream Paradise and brought his companions there before returning with them to search for spiritual stoves. The group advanced through the forest, gathering valuable plants as Yating helped Long Haochen recover his spiritual power.

• Long Haochen used the Eternal Melody to open a passage to the Tower of Eternity, barely retaining enough spiritual power to complete the transmission.

Long Haochen’s group watched the great ape kill the demon heir and received the Crown of Inheritance and a spirit furnace through the ape’s goodwill. Long Haochen gave the crown to Lin Xin and chose Chen Ying'er to absorb the spirit furnace, beginning her fusion.

• The great ape killed the demon who had broken Dream Paradise’s rules, then found a Crown of Inheritance among his remains and gave it to Long Haochen.
