Chapter Summaries

The Rahu Domain’s leaders gathered to choose a new Rahu King and prepare to invade the Nine Radiance Great Domain, while Gani revealed that the Player Race had taken his clan artifact. After the clan king barred the Galuo Clan from retaliating in Bei Qi, he told Luo Xiu that Bei Ming was alive, and Luo Xiu resolved to resume his pursuit of the path of Slaughter Immortals to Become God.

• The clan king warned the five factions not to harm one another during the campaign and questioned Gani about his missing clan artifact.
• Gani admitted that the Player Race had seized the Light of Jialan in Bei Qi, but the clan king refused to let the Galuo Clan retaliate there.

• Luo Xiu recalled that he was the former Rahu King Asura, had died after pursuing the path of Slaughter Immortals to Become God, and had resurrected three hundred years ago.
• The clan king told Luo Xiu that Bei Ming had survived seizing divine fire and was fleeing the Heavenly Realm gods.
• Luo Xiu decided to regain his former strength and make the Star Radiance Palace Lord his first sacrifice.

Luo Xiu explained his theory that the Human Emperor’s path to strength came from fusing yin- and yang-attributed spiritual energy, and reaffirmed his willingness to risk death to pursue it. Meanwhile, Fire Radiance met Gu Yu and Gouzi after they warned that the Rahu Domain was preparing to attack the Nine Radiance Great Domain, and Gu Yu revealed a piece of flesh that shocked him.

• Luo Xiu told the clan king that he believed Slaughter Immortals to Become God followed the Human Emperor’s path by combining divine fire from the Heavenly Realm with yin-attributed fire from the Netherworld.
• Luo Xiu insisted he would risk his life to become stronger, then reminisced and drank with the clan king beneath the stars.
• The Nine Radiance Brothers concealed Earth Radiance’s death from Star Radiance while he attempted to break through to the Ghost Emperor Late Stage.
• Fire Radiance learned that Gu Yu and Gouzi had arrived and claimed the Rahu Domain was mobilizing to seize the Nine Radiance Great Domain, so he agreed to meet them.
• Gu Yu showed Fire Radiance a chunk of flesh, and Fire Radiance reacted with shock.

Gu Yu used Earth Radiance’s flesh to prove that the Rahu Domain had killed him, then negotiated ten spirit mine sites from Chen Yao. Chen Yao tried to recruit the Players against Rahu, but Gu Yu rejected an alliance and left him unsettled by the Players’ ambitions.

• Gu Yu showed Fire Radiance Earth Radiance’s flesh, and Fire Radiance confirmed it carried Asura Path power.

• After Gu Yu and Gouzi left, Chen Yao wondered whether Gu Yu had meant his threat seriously.

Ye Shiwen cautiously explored southern Rahu Domain to map it for a forum commission, surviving on cheap food and little equipment. After a buried man asked for her bread and offered an Asura Path Technique in exchange, she refused because she did not think it was valuable.

• Ye Shiwen checked her map, saw she had explored only 5.8% of southern Rahu Domain, and continued through the jungle to fulfill her scouting commission.
• As her hunger meter neared empty, Ye Shiwen bought the cheapest Dry Bread and ate it while imagining the luxuries she hoped to afford someday.
• A voice startled Ye Shiwen, who struck a combat stance before discovering a disheveled man pinned beneath a boulder.
• The man asked Ye Shiwen for her bread and offered an Asura Path Technique in trade, but she refused after he said it was worthless.
• Ye Shiwen said she knew only the Hell Path and that it was valuable, leaving the trapped man astonished by her ignorance.

Ye Shiwen traded half her bread to the sealed Asura, who tricked her into receiving the ultimate skill Asura Speech. Asura removed his Tasteless suppression and prepared to break free, while Ye Shiwen wondered if the All-Region Announcement would make her rich.

• Asura offered Ye Shiwen Asura Path Techniques in exchange for her bread, and she reluctantly gave him the smaller half.
• Asura bit Ye Shiwen's finger and transferred purple runes to her while chanting, but she ate the rest of her bread and waited for death.
• Asura revealed that he had succeeded, and Ye Shiwen threw rocks at him before refusing to hear his explanation.
• The runes sank into Ye Shiwen, and a game notification announced that she had comprehended the ultimate skill Asura Speech.
• Asura explained that transferring the skill had removed his Tasteless suppression and smiled as he prepared to break the seal, while Ye Shiwen hoped the announcement would make her rich.

Ye Shiwen tested Asura’s curse-granting ability on a rabbit, then erased its memory to avoid paying compensation for torturing it. After she left, Asura tried to escape his seal but was trapped again by the Eastern Peak Great Emperor.

• Asura taught Ye Shiwen that spoken curses would become real, and she tested the power on a Jungle Rabbit.
• Ye Shiwen transformed the rabbit into a pig and afflicted it with several curses before removing them when it was near death.
• The rabbit revealed it could speak, demanded a spiritual material as compensation, and Ye Shiwen cursed it with memory loss to avoid paying.
• Ye Shiwen left for the forest’s depths while Asura began using his restored power to break the Fengdu Great Emperor’s seal.
• The Eastern Peak Great Emperor summoned the Brass Bell and suppressed Asura with a Heart Demon Seal, which would lift only if Asura abandoned his plan to merge with the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Ye Shiwen recruited a rabbit as her guide by promising it a piece of Dry Bread, and the pair began exploring the mountain range together. At their evening camp, Ye Shiwen bought bread only to discover it tasted like paper, but she kept eating rather than waste it.

• A Brass Bell appeared above Asura's territory, causing the ground to shake before it descended and the tremors stopped.
• Ye Shiwen encountered the rabbit that owed her a spirit herb, and she convinced it that its debt was forgiven while asking it to guide her.
• Ye Shiwen and the rabbit agreed that she would give it one piece of Dry Bread after their work, and it led her through the mountains, helping her avoid dangerous areas.
• At dusk, Ye Shiwen's hunger forced her to buy Dry Bread while the rabbit went to find leaves, but the bread tasted like paper.
• Ye Shiwen decided the Dry Bread was a defective product and angrily kept eating it so her expensive purchase would not go to waste.

Lu Wu watched Ye Shiwen’s clumsy exploration with the rabbit and hesitated to list her as a talented Player. While sneaking toward a camp, Ye Shiwen and the rabbit overheard Gamu’s group plotting to seize the Light of Jialan, but their attempt to retreat failed, and Gamu’s curse had no effect on Ye Shiwen.

• Lu Wu observed Ye Shiwen struggling with food and decided to wait before recording her as a talented Player.
• The rabbit returned with a Bamboo Rat, roasted and ate it without sharing with Ye Shiwen, then led her onward through the Southern Mountain Range of the Rahu Domain.
• Ye Shiwen and the rabbit discovered Gamu and two other Galuo Sect men discussing their mission to retrieve the Light of Jialan from Bei Qi and capture members of the Player Race.
• When Gamu caught them trying to sneak away, Ye Shiwen and the rabbit failed to disguise themselves, and Gamu demanded the location of the Player Race’s clan leader.
• Gamu cast Art of Pain on Ye Shiwen, but the Asura Speech Mark activated and nullified the curse.

Ye Shiwen used the Asura Speech Spell to curse four Galuo Sect members into Fragrant Pigs and tame them as mounts, then rode with the rabbit into an enormous Rahu army. When Gani caught them and discovered the Asura Speech mark on Ye Shiwen, he was shocked that an outsider had mastered the Supreme Asura Path.

• Ye Shiwen turned Gamu and three other Galuo Sect members into Fragrant Pigs, then cursed them into obedience and rode them with the rabbit.
• Ye Shiwen and the rabbit explored the Southern Mountain Range overnight, reaching a canyon in the Central Region at dawn.
• They found a massive Rahu army gathered in the canyon and fled after realizing a war between great domains was about to begin.
• The Galuo Clan Elder ordered Gani to capture them, and Ye Shiwen's curse failed against him because he was too powerful.
• Gani stopped Ye Shiwen and the rabbit, examined Ye Shiwen, and found the Asura Speech mark on her forehead.

Gani brought Ye Shiwen and the rabbit to the Rahu Army, where she revealed that Asura had given her the Curse Kill ultimate path power in exchange for Dry Bread. The clan king took them to find Asura, but a seal bearing the Eastern Peak Great Emperor’s power injured him; he withdrew and let Ye Shiwen choose her own path, and she decided to leave for Bei Qi with the rabbit.

• Gani brought Ye Shiwen and the rabbit to the Rahu Army, where the Galuo clan elder questioned her about mastering the Curse Kill ultimate path.
• Ye Shiwen said Asura had given her the power in exchange for Dry Bread, prompting the clan elder to summon the clan king.
• The clan king took Ye Shiwen, Gani, the clan elder, and the rabbit to the boulder where she had met Asura.
• The clan king’s attack on the boulder struck a golden seal that injured him, and he identified it as the Eastern Peak Great Emperor’s power.
• The clan king declared Ye Shiwen an honored guest but allowed her to leave, and she chose freedom and invited the rabbit to accompany her to Bei Qi.

Lu Wu launched a player-led mission to rebuild the Netherworld, scattering construction materials across Bei Qi and displaying a phantom city whose buildings players could restore. Players returned from across the regions and competed to rebuild their favorite places, bringing life back to Bei Qi as the Netherworld’s restoration progressed.

• Lu Wu announced the Netherworld Reconstruction mission and arranged for construction materials to spawn throughout Bei Qi.

As Rahu King contenders entered the battle, Chen Yao and his three brothers showed the power of fighting together by killing two contenders in quick succession.

• Chen Yao led the Nine Luminaries soldiers into battle as the demonized Rahu Army charged, and the shield warriors and cavalry met them in a bloody clash.

• When Gani rallied the remaining contenders, Chen Yao’s brothers feinted toward him, then joined Chen Yao in killing another contender with a combined attack.

Chen Yao and his four brothers overwhelmed Gani and the other Rahu King candidates until Luo Xiu intervened and revealed two Asura Supreme Path powers. As Luo Xiu prepared to unleash his Eight-Armed Asura, Gu Yu and Gouzi suspected he had learned the Evil God's power.

• Chen Yao and his four brothers coordinated their attacks, killing several candidates and forcing Gani's group onto the defensive.

• Luo Xiu invoked Eight-Armed Asura, and Gouzi and Gu Yu recognized the ability from the Evil God's fight with Hanba and wondered how Luo Xiu knew it.

Luo Xiu defeated Fire Radiance and overwhelmed Chen Yao, Water Radiance, and Mu Yao as he sought Star Radiance. Star Radiance arrived and fought him, but when his brothers sacrificed themselves to empower him, he charged Luo Xiu in a grief-stricken rage.

• Fire Radiance attacked Luo Xiu, but Luo Xiu pierced him with a golden pillar of light, and Fire Radiance died as curse marks flowed into Luo Xiu.

• Star Radiance lost control in grief, took up the Nine Luminaries Army banner, and charged Luo Xiu amid a storm of icy crystals.
