Yang Fu used the Nethersea Blue Coral to break through and gain the Heaven Grade talent Deep-Sea Resonance, then led the Heavenly Dragon Army and Feng Clan forces in a devastating attack on the Sea Clan. He planned to gather Spirit Stones to help Yang Feng, who remained trapped in Feng Yi’s formation.

• Yang Genshuo told Yang Qiangwei that Yang Feng could use [Heaven and Earth Gamble] with his stored Spirit Stones to attack Feng Yi, and planned to wait for Yang Qiangjin’s army to arrive before striking.
• Yang Fu refused to wait passively in the Haishen Dynasty and decided to use Yang Genshuo’s Divine Miracle: Flying Letter to send help to Yang Feng and Yang Qiangwei.

• Yang Fu vowed to earn one hundred thousand Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to help Yang Feng, while Yang Genshuo and Tian Zhe finally boarded a cruise ship and collapsed from exhaustion.

After escaping the TW Organization’s missile strike, Yang Genshuo and Tian Zhe rested aboard a cruise ship and resolved to build an armed force against the organization. In Bright City, Li Fan tended the Divine Tree of Life while Liu Changqing and several Liu Family members joined the city’s veteran Spirit Beasts for a killing game, prompting Yang Fuqing to investigate.

• Yang Genshuo and Tian Zhe discussed the TW Organization’s crimes, their inability to withstand its missiles, and their plan to cultivate and recruit subordinates equipped with protective robes, talismans, and Laser Swords.
• Yang Genshuo and Tian Zhe fell asleep aboard the cruise ship after agreeing to discuss recruitment once they returned home.

• Yang Fuqing learned that fifty-two Liu Family members had arrived, tracked Liu Changqing to the game room, and sensed blood and danger as she approached.

Liu Changqing ambushed and killed Yang Fuqing, then attacked her Spirit Beasts before Yang Qiangjing used Bright City's upgraded formation to fight him. Yang Genshuo realized Liu Changqing had long plotted to seize the Divine Tree of Life, and the Liu Family began draining its power through Li Fan.

• Liu Changqing attacked Yang Fuqing with blood-red vines, shattered her Golden Core, and killed her despite Yang Genshuo's attempts to lend her defensive talents.

• Yang Genshuo realized Liu Changqing had disguised his true purpose and had targeted the Divine Tree of Life, with the Liu Family now siphoning its power through Li Fan.

Liu Changqing betrayed the Yang Family and used Li Fan’s Symbiotic Essence-Nourishing Technique to drain the Divine Tree of Life, leaving Bright City exposed. Li Fan sacrificed his cultivation and soul to free the tree from the Liu Clan’s control, and his remnant soul vanished as a stalk of Blue Silver Grass.

• Liu Changqing and fifty-two Liu Clan cultivators drained the Divine Tree of Life, weakening Little Green and taking control of its power.

• Li Fan’s remnant soul disappeared after asking Yang Genshuo to tell Yang Shi that everything at home was well, leaving a stalk of Blue Silver Grass on the Divine Tree of Life.

Trial Town came under a massive Demon Race assault while Bright City faced Liu Changqing’s attack, and Cultivator Douyang remained with the Yin Clan in Coffin Town. After Li Fan sacrificed himself to free the Divine Tree of Life from Liu control, Liu Changqing unleashed a forest of man-eating trees across Bright City, leaving Yang Qiangjing without a clear way to counter him.

• The Demon Race army surrounded Trial Town, where Murong Ziyan and the defenders prepared to fight after the Liu Family and Yin Clan failed to reinforce them.
• Wu Yi, the Rakshasa Tiger, and the Immortal Chef chose to leave Trial Town and aid the Yang Family in Bright City after two Shangguan Clan hostages offered to hold the line.

• Yang Qiangjing struggled to attack Liu Changqing without harming her own people, while Cultivator Douyang sat with Yin Zhiping, Yin Zhixiang, and the others in Coffin Town.

Cultivator Douyang rejected the Yin Family and Liu Family’s plot to exploit the Demon Race’s attack, choosing to defend the Human Race even as the Yin brothers defeated and captured him. Meanwhile, Liu Changqing’s forces attacked Bright City, and Yang Qiangjing used its formations to evacuate people while waiting for reinforcements.

• The Yin brothers persuaded Cultivator Douyang to let the Demon Race pass and join them in helping Liu Changqing seize Bright City, but he set Yin Zhichou on fire and denounced their betrayal.
• Cultivator Douyang warned the Yin brothers that Liu Changqing might betray them next, then fought them when they refused to help stop the Demon Race from reaching Trial Town.

• Liu Changqing attacked Yang Qiangjing’s defenses in Bright City as his empowered cultivators and Bloodspirit Wood Wraith Tree slaughtered those who resisted.
• Yang Qiangjing ordered people to shelter at Black Tortoise Academy and Ninth District forces to defend their territory, then used spatial barriers and Bright City’s formation to delay Liu Changqing’s forces while awaiting reinforcements.

Yang Qiangwei and Yang Genshuo struggled to support their family’s efforts while Yang Feng remained trapped inside the Floating Island formation. As Bright City’s defenses neared collapse, reinforcements bought time until Yang Qiangjin returned with the Heavenly Dragon Army.

• Yang Qiangwei learned Feng Yi had plotted against the Great Nai Empire and waited for Yang Feng to attempt an escape with the [Primordial Coin] and Spirit Stones.
• Yang Genshuo tried to assess Yang Feng’s condition but could not see through the concealed formation, then turned his attention to stabilizing Bright City.
• Liu Changqing used the [Bloodspirit Wood Wraith Tree] to drain Bright City’s grand formation while Yang Qiangjing calculated how long it could hold.
• Big Bear and six other Golden Core demons arrived to fight the Liu Family forces outside Bright City, followed by Wu Yi, the Rakshasa Tiger, Baji, and other allies.
• The reinforcements killed nearly fifty Liu Family disciples and slowed the assault, but Bright City’s formation was left close to breaking.
• Yang Qiangjin arrived on a Fire Phoenix with the Heavenly Dragon Army’s First and Fifth Battalions and ordered them to attack.

Yang Qiangjin and the Great Nai Empire’s allies broke the Liu Family’s formation, but Liu Changqing used the Wheel of Life and Death to revive his disciples and unleash their spirit puppets. As Bright City’s defenders struggled against the Liu Family’s growing strength, Yang Genshuo searched for a way to break the deadlock and remembered that ancestor worship was three days away.

• Yang Qiangjin led the Heavenly Dragon Army First Battalion and the Fifth Battalion in breaking the Liu Family’s formation, while Wu Yi and allied demons joined the attack.
• Liu Changqing released the Wheel of Life and Death, healed his Liu Family disciples, and revealed that the treasure could preserve their souls and create new bodies for them.

• Yang Qiangjing ordered the Heavenly Dragon Army to form defensive ranks and bombard the Liu Family, but their attacks failed to damage its formation effectively.
• Yang Genshuo assessed the Empire’s worsening position across multiple fronts and realized that the ancestor worship ceremony was three days away.

With the Yang Family trapped on three battlefields, Yang Genshuo decided to obtain a nuclear weapon before the ancestral rites in three days. In Bright City, Yang Qiangjing saw through Liu Changqing’s trap and countered it without letting her forces enter the wood-element formation, while Yang Genshuo raced toward the mainland to carry out his plan.

• Yang Genshuo decided that the Yang Family needed nuclear weapons and set out to obtain a nuclear bomb from official contacts within three days.
• Yang Genshuo sent Tian Zhe back by ship, took a [Water-Riding Pill], and raced across the sea toward the mainland.
• Yang Genshuo told Yang Qiangjing to avoid risking a direct fight with Liu Changqing and to hold out until the ancestral rites.
• Yang Qiangjing used Bright City’s cameras to discover that Liu Changqing was pretending to refine the Divine Tree of Life to lure her forces into his formation.
• Yang Qiangjing’s forces attacked from outside the formation, killed Liu Clan disciples, threw White Phosphorus Bombs into the wood-element formation, and withdrew without entering it.
• Yang Genshuo praised Yang Qiangjing’s counterattack and continued racing toward the continent.

Yang Genshuo returned to the Great Nai Empire and realized the Liu Family’s resurrection treasure could be countered by destroying their souls. He granted Yang Qiangjin powerful techniques and abilities, and she began killing Liu Family disciples for good while Liu Changqing refined the Divine Tree of Life.

• Yang Genshuo reached the coast after twelve hours of wave riding, and Zhao Tianci drove him to a private jet bound for Kyoto.
• Yang Qiangjing’s forces struggled to hold off Liu Changqing, while the Liu Family continued recovering through the [Wheel of Life and Death] and attacked the Divine Tree of Life.
• Yang Genshuo identified Yang Qiangwei’s [Soul Annihilation Art] as a way to prevent dead Liu Family disciples from returning to the [Wheel of Life and Death].
• Yang Genshuo granted Yang Qiangjin the Reverse-Flow Technique and several combat talents, including Three Heads and Six Arms and Boundless Energy.

• Liu Changqing flew into a rage when he saw Yang Qiangjin killing his disciples for good.

Yang Qiangjin used Yanxi’s inherited fire arts to battle the Liu Family and interrupt Liu Changqing’s attempt to refine the Divine Tree of Life. After Yang Genshuo arrived to meet Old Xue, he asked whether Xue Yongjun wanted to live again.

• Yang Qiangjin and Yanxi killed ten Liu Family disciples and destroyed their souls, then faced twelve Golden Core cultivators using the Liu Family’s Shared Vitality technique.
• Yang Qiangjin escaped the Liu cultivators’ golden-leaf attack by using Yanxi’s Nirvana Flame Domain to travel between flames in Bright City.
• Yang Qiangjin charged Liu Changqing and forced him to stop refining the Divine Tree of Life, causing the tree to reject his aura.
• Yang Qiangjin and the others resumed fighting as both sides suffered losses, while Liu Changqing ordered his forces to protect him and stop her from reaching the tree again.
• Yang Genshuo arrived at the Outer Beihai District, met the ailing Xue Yongjun, and asked whether he wanted to live again.

Yang Genshuo healed Xue Yongjun, revealed himself as a cultivator, and set nuclear weapons as the test for joining his sect. As Yang Qiangwei prepared to reach Yang Feng and Yang Fu pursued the Sea Clan for resources, Yang Fu resolved to confront a powerful Sea Clan commander to save his son.

• Yang Genshuo used a contract to bind Xue Yongjun, healed him with a [Rejuvenation Pill], and offered him a chance to join his sect if he obtained nuclear weapons within two days.
• Xue Yongjun arranged to negotiate with the military's top commander, offering [Ice Crystal Stone] in exchange for nuclear weapons, and Yang Genshuo gave him another [Rejuvenation Pill] as a bargaining chip.
• Yang Qiangwei told Yang Genshuo that Yang Feng's condition was worsening and planned to lead Ye Liyue and Shangguan Yixin to help him escape the Floating Island.
• Yang Fu and Yang Fujian learned that Bright City had fallen and decided to hunt the Sea Clan's High Commander for Spirit Stones to help Yang Feng break out.
• Feng Lian warned Yang Fu that the High Commander was at Golden Core Great Perfection, but Yang Fu declared that he would fight even a Nascent Soul to save his child.

Yang Fu and the allied forces attacked Ao Wu’s territory in the Thousand Isles Sea, battling the Sea Clan above the water while Yang Fu confronted Ao Wu below. Yang Fu learned the extent of Ao Wu’s strength and called on his ancestor for power as the fight continued.

• Yang Fu led the Heavenly Dragon Army and Feng Clan forces into Ao Wu’s territory, where he killed a Golden Core Sea Clan member with eight Water Spirit Pearls.
• Ao Wu emerged from beneath the sea as Yang Fu plunged into the water to face him, while Yang Fujian and the allied troops fought the Sea Clan above.
• Zhuge Beinian and the Fourth Battalion anchored their island, and the Feng Clan and Heavenly Dragon Army fought off the Sea Clan’s attacks.
• Yang Changsheng and the Second Battalion killed Sea Clan members who tried to land using earth-inscribed bullets and great sabers.
• Ao Wu shattered Yang Fu’s water attacks and gained the advantage with his mastery of sea-based techniques, while worrying that his surrounding allies had not arrived.
• Yang Fu studied Ao Wu’s attacks and asked his ancestor to grant him power.

Yang Fu used borrowed talents, the Fourth Battalion’s earth formation, and transformed Earth Spirit Pearls to defeat and kill Ao Wu beneath the sea. The Sea Clan fled, the Thousand Isles Sea was pacified, and Yang Fu collapsed unconscious after claiming victory.

• Yang Genshuo lent Yang Fu several Yang Family talents, allowing him to combine attacks and gain an advantage over Ao Wu.
• Yang Fu stunned Ao Wu with Divine Soul Explosion, while Zhuge Beinian summoned a meteorite and the Fourth Battalion trapped Ao Wu in an earthen prison.
• Yang Fu transformed his Water Spirit Pearls into Earth Spirit Pearls, borrowed Yang Min’s Nine Abyss Mountain-Suppressing Formula, and struck Ao Wu with Nine Peaks Soul-Suppressing Fist.
• Yang Fu punched through Ao Wu’s chest and carried the defeated squid onto the new landmass, then collapsed unconscious from his injuries.
• The Sea Clan fled as Feng Lian’s forces pursued them, and Yang Fujian led the others to collect the spoils from Ao Wu’s cave abode.

Yang Fujian’s forces raided Ao Wu’s lairs, divided his vast hoard with the Feng Clan, and celebrated by eating the giant squid. Yang Genshuo then realized Ao Wu might still be alive and considered using Yang Qiangzheng’s [Corpse Retriever] talent to let the army Devour him and gain his talents.

• Yang Fujian led the Golden Core cultivators into Ao Wu’s cave abode, questioned his sea-women concubines, and learned of a second hidden lair before killing them to prevent them from revealing information.
• Yang Genshuo reasoned that Feng Yi had separated Feng Lian and the other Feng Clan cultivators from his body-seizing plan, and resolved to obtain nuclear weapons to stop him.
• Zhuge Beinian reported that Ao Wu’s hoard included two hundred thousand Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, ten Superior Water Spirit Stones, and valuable materials, spirit foods, and herbs.
• Yang Fu proposed sharing the spoils equally between the Yang Family and Feng Clan, with the Yang Family taking the Spirit Stones it urgently needed and the Feng Clan receiving a larger share of other goods; Feng Lian accepted.
• Yang Fu called for a feast on Ao Wu’s giant squid, and Yang Genshuo realized Ao Wu might be playing dead and considered using Yang Qiangzheng’s [Corpse Retriever] talent to let the army Devour him.

Yang Genshuo spent Incense to let Yang Fu and Yang Fujian absorb Ao Wu and gain powerful talents, despite the Heavenly Punishment for borrowing Yang Qiangzheng’s Corpse Retriever. He sent Ao Wu’s remaining body to Yang Qiangzheng, who suddenly felt something wrap around his neck in the Trial Tower.

• Yang Genshuo used 1,000 Incense to lend Yang Qiangzheng’s Corpse Retriever talent to Yang Fu, who absorbed Ao Wu, advanced to the Eighth-Level Nirvana Realm, and gained Deep-Sea Walker.
• Heavenly Punishment took back Yang Fu’s forty years of lifespan, and Yang Genshuo concluded that using Corpse Retriever without Yang Qiangzheng’s fate carried a cost.
• Yang Fujian absorbed another portion of Ao Wu, advanced in physical and spirit power cultivation, and gained the Immortal-Grade talent Split Rebirth.
• Heavenly Punishment reduced Yang Fujian’s Fortune by ten, while his new talent made him ravenously hungry and prompted Yang Fu to feed him sea beasts and Spirit Food.
• Yang Genshuo had Yang Fu send Ao Wu’s remaining body to Yang Qiangzheng using Divine Miracle: Flying Letter, and Yang Qiangzheng felt something wrap around his neck in the Trial Tower.

Yang Qiangzheng gained the Split Divine Ability after absorbing Ao Wu, while Yang Feng unleashed Heaven and Earth Gamble to break the formation trapping him. As Yang Qiangwei rushed through the spatial rifts to reach him, Yang Genshuo realized he could lend her a talent.

• Yang Qiangzheng absorbed Ao Wu, broke through in physical and spiritual strength, and gained the Split Divine Ability and Split Rebirth talent.
• Yang Qiangzheng split into multiple bodies, discovered he could control three safely, and thanked Yang Genshuo for providing corpses.
• Yang Genshuo withheld the news of Yang Fuqing's death and waited anxiously for Old Xue to return with news about Nuclear Weapons.
• Yang Feng, trapped by Feng Yi's formation for half a month, spent one hundred thousand Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to activate Heaven and Earth Gamble and tear open the formation.
• Yang Qiangwei rushed toward Yang Feng through the spatial rifts, while Shangguan Yixin guided her with music and Yang Genshuo prepared to lend her a talent.

Yang Qiangwei used Yang Shi’s borrowed spatial talent and Fortune to reach Yang Feng, but the formation and the Aberrant Army prevented their escape. As Feng Yi’s plan drove Ye Liyue to turn against him, Yang Qiangwei struggled to carry Yang Feng through the Spatial Rift and prepared to use something the ancestor had left for him.

• Yang Feng used [Heaven and Earth Gamble] to shatter space and damage the formation, but the resulting Spatial Rifts trapped him as Feng Yi and Feng Xin waited for space to heal.
• Yang Qiangwei crossed the Spatial Rifts using Yang Shi’s [Rift Traversal] talent, while Shangguan Yixin and the Shangguan Clan disrupted the Aberrant Army with their music.
• Yang Qiangwei reached Yang Feng, but the formation stopped their combined Reverse-Flow Technique, so she took his hand and led him into a Spatial Rift.
• Feng Yi ordered the Aberrant Army to sacrifice themselves to block the couple, and Ye Liyue recognized six of her supposedly dead children among them and attacked Feng Yi.
• Feng Xin stopped Ye Liyue until she burned her Golden Core and broke through; Feng Yi shielded himself with the [Primordial Jar] and promised her a new life if he took Yang Qiangwei’s body.
• Yang Qiangwei struggled to carry Yang Feng past the suicidal Aberrant Army and told him that the ancestor had left him something.

Yang Feng and Yang Qiangwei used Yang Fu’s Spirit Stones to fight their way off the Floating Island, escaping just as their borrowed spatial power ran out and Feng Yi’s scheme collapsed. Feng Yi accepted defeat and called Yang Feng over to receive a victor’s gift.

• Yang Qiangwei gave Yang Feng a Storage Ring containing 240,000 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, and Yang Genshuo warned them not to unleash the full force of the stones inside the unstable spatial rifts.
• Yang Feng used Heaven and Earth Gamble to clear a path through Feng Yi’s Aberrant Army, including killing his three-armed uncle, while Yang Qiangwei guided them through space.
• As the Aberrant Army fell and the Primordial Jar lost power, Yang Feng and Yang Qiangwei escaped the Floating Island, and Yang Qiangwei’s blessing ran out.
• Feng Xin remained trapped by the Shangguan Clan’s zitherists, while Ye Liyue stopped fighting with Feng Yi and asked him why he had turned against Yang Feng.
• Feng Yi recalled how he and Ye Liyue had once rebuilt the Feng Clan together, admitted that he had lost, and called Yang Feng over to receive a victor’s gift.

Yang Feng defeated Feng Yi’s scheme, took control of the Feng Clan’s Aberrant Army, and received Feng Yi’s final warning about the Liu Family’s attack on Bright City. As Feng Xin prepared to accompany Yang Feng, Yang Qiangjin collapsed during her assault on the Liu Family, leaving the Yang Family’s fate uncertain.

• Feng Yi gave Yang Feng the [Blood-Drop Seal], and Yang Feng instantly gained control of the surviving Aberrant Army soldiers.
• Feng Yi asked Feng Xin to help Yang Feng deal with the Liu Family, warning that Bright City was near destruction, and Feng Xin agreed to honor his brother’s final request.
• Feng Yi and Ye Liyue clasped hands and died; the [Primordial Jar] emerged from Feng Yi’s body, and Yang Feng claimed it alongside the [Primordial Coin].
• Feng Xin buried Feng Yi and Ye Liyue, then asked Yang Feng whether he should leave or stay.
• In Bright City, Yang Qiangjin ran out of power after attacking the Liu Family, while Yang Genshuo told her that Yang Feng was on his way.
• Yang Fu urged the others to reach the Haishen Dynasty mainland and find Li Yao so they could still help Bright City.
