Chapter Summaries

After killing Yu Shang, Luo Hong explained his victory to Jin Yue and learned that Yu Shang had planned to expose the Sky Peng Clan’s secret alliance with the Horned Vulture Clan. Jin Yue left to investigate the leak, while Luo Hong departed with Yu Shang’s belongings and a new interest in the thunder beast; three months later, a Five-Light Clan supply party heard that Holy Son Xie Yuan was coming to confront the Savage Star Clan.

• Luo Hong told Jin Yue that Yu Shang had died because of the heavenly tribulation, while reflecting on how the tribulation strengthened his Law of Strength and advanced his physical cultivation.
• Luo Hong revealed Yu Shang’s plan to lure the Five-Light Holy Soul into Horned Vulture Clan territory, and Jin Yue realized the scheme was meant to expose the Sky Peng Clan’s alliance and invite trouble from the Chi Rong Clan.
• Jin Yue gave Luo Hong Yu Shang’s Storage Bracelet and Spirit Beast Bag, copied the Golden Que Jade Book, and took Yu Shang’s corpse to preserve his inherited true blood.
• After Jin Yue departed, Luo Hong examined the sleeping thunder beast and set off, considering how its abilities might help him withstand lightning tribulations.
• Three months later, a Five-Light Clan supply party near the Evil Valley Great Formation complained about the lack of reinforcements, and its Flying Spirit General announced that Holy Son Xie Yuan was coming to support them.

Xie Yuan arrived at a Five-Light Clan convoy under attack by the Savage Star Clan and killed the enemy Great Star Master, then wiped out the attacking body cultivators. He learned that Evil Valley Pass was too strained by major front-line assaults to clear the Savage Star Clan from the rear.

• Dong Zhao’s group spotted twelve green attacks too late to protect their Colorful Winged Demonic Birds, and the Savage Star Clan trapped them inside a starlight formation.
• Dong Zhao led the Five-Light Clan Members in holding back the Savage Star body cultivators while their fire-bird attacks weakened the formation.
• The Great Star Master used the Purple Star Stone to give the Savage Star body cultivators flesh wings, forcing Dong Zhao to split his group and lead an attack on the Great Star Master.
• Xie Yuan appeared, found the Great Star Master hiding at the formation’s array eye, and killed him with a white dragon formed from his palm.
• Xie Yuan activated the Primordial Sword Formation and slaughtered the Savage Star body cultivators, then asked Dong Zhao about the situation at Evil Valley Pass.

Luo Hong returned to Evil Valley Pass, learned that a formation-countering enemy chieftain had been draining its defenses, and ordered an immediate counterattack. While preparing to contact his incarnations beyond the realm, he uncovered a possible link between the local spatial disturbance and the Purple Star Stone.

• Dong Zhao explained that the Savage Star Clan chieftain used a powerful spirit treasure to breach Evil Valley Pass’s formation and disrupt its supply lines.
• Luo Hong reached Evil Valley Pass, sensed the unstable spatial currents that made teleportation unsafe, and ordered Zhao Feng to prepare the troops for battle.
• Luo Hong dismissed the need to rest and led the pass’s forces to attack, confident that the Savage Star Clan chieftain was no match for him.
• Luo Hong sensed a familiar beyond-realm aura in the Purple Star Stone and suspected it came from the source of the region’s spatial disturbances.
• Luo Hong opened a coffin to use a Purple Rank Wood Race Soul Slave to contact his incarnations beyond the realm, then attacked the slave with Heavenly Wolf Divine Fire when an unfamiliar aura appeared.

Qing Feng recalled how Luo Hong’s Ghost Dao Incarnations multiplied into a vast force and came to dominate their region of the outer realm. After Demon Lord Fusheng gave Qing Feng a demon seal, he learned that the incarnations had crossed the border in force, leaving him trapped in enemy territory as images of their assault appeared.

• Demon Lord Fusheng confronted Qing Feng over the death of one of his Mad Inner Demons, then gave Qing Feng a demon seal so he could restrain them.
• Qing Feng remembered how half of Luo Hong’s Ghost Dao Incarnations were lost in an early encounter, prompting the survivors to split and multiply through their directives.
• The incarnations developed coordinated living curse arts and defeated a Mad Inner Demon, then spent decades multiplying until their numbers exceeded a hundred thousand.
• Several Demon Lords confined the incarnations to a designated region after they began devouring Mad Inner Demons in vast numbers.
• An Azure Domain Demon reported that the incarnations had crossed the border in force, and Qing Feng was immobilized as images showed them gathered like clouds.

Luo Hong led the Five-Light Clan to a decisive victory over the Savage Star Clan, then stayed at Evil Valley Pass to investigate the region’s secrets. Three months later, a Soul Slave’s transformation began drawing in an extraordinary amount of spiritual energy, leaving Luo Hong puzzled by the incarnation’s apparent lack of power.

• Demon Lord Fusheng saw an opportunity to attack Jia You’s territory and declared war after Ghost Dao Incarnations slaughtered his Mad Inner Demons.
• Luo Hong assembled the Five-Light Clan army outside Evil Valley Pass and transformed his Five-Colored Divine Light into a beast that defeated the Savage Star chieftain and devastated the enemy army.
• Luo Hong ordered Zhao Feng to lead the defenders in hunting down the fleeing Savage Star Clan while he stayed behind and captured the wounded chieftain alive.
• Three months later, Luo Hong used another Soul Slave to guide the Ghost Dao Incarnations, but its transformation produced a surge of spiritual energy that revealed its power was unusually low.

Luo Hong learned that his Ghost Dao Incarnations had multiplied across the outer realm and unintentionally sparked a war among dozens of Demon Lords. After examining one returning incarnation, he discovered its potential as a pure primordial-spirit medicine, though the dangers of the sprawling incarnation army remained unresolved.

• Luo Hong summoned Qing Feng and asked whether his Ghost Dao Incarnations had begun replicating in the outer realm.
• Qing Feng reported that the incarnations had devoured many Mad Inner Demons and triggered a war involving dozens of Demon Lords.
• Luo Hong realized his instructions had caused the incarnation army to expand uncontrollably because threats in the outer realm never subsided.
• Luo Hong examined a returning Ghost Dao Incarnation and found it had Ghost Dao Nascent Soul Mid-stage cultivation, a Ghost Infant, and a Five Evolutions primordial spirit.
• Luo Hong concluded that the incarnation could become a pure primordial-spirit medicine through the Great God-Reversing Technique, while recognizing that it carried a hidden danger.

Luo Hong sought a way to control the growing number of Ghost Dao Incarnations without abandoning their foothold in the Outer Void. After learning that an ancient Evil Dragon Clan world ship could send incarnations to lesser realms, he devised a plan to use it for exploration and to restore the incarnations that survived.

• Luo Hong recognized that later-generation incarnations retained too few memories and could become uncontrollable, and resolved to stop their numbers from growing further.
• Qing Feng reported a huge bone hall near the Outer Void's realm wall, whose purple barrier repelled him but resembled the aura of Luo Hong's Purple Star Giant Axe.
• Luo Hong ordered Qing Feng to oversee exploration of the bone hall and told Zhao Feng to capture one thousand Savage Star Body Cultivators alive for a secret purpose.
• Qing Feng returned with Jade Slips showing that the bone hall was an Evil Dragon Clan world ship, and Luo Hong identified the Savage Star Clan as the Evil Dragons' servants for gathering Heavenly Sha.
• Luo Hong planned to repair the ship's teleportation formation and send later-generation incarnations to explore lesser realms, where those that established contact with the first-generation incarnation could have their memory deficiencies restored.

Luo Hong arranged for an incarnation to repair the Teleportation Array and explore lesser realms for resources, then left Evil Valley Pass as Holy Son Xie Yuan. He hurried toward the Earth Abyss Trial, planning to help Lei Jiao find the Netherflame Fruit before reuniting with Yuan Yao.

• Luo Hong entrusted an illusory incarnation with repairing the Teleportation Array and preparing a thousand Sixth Revolution Incarnations while he remained in the Spirit World.
• Luo Hong explained to Silver Fairy that his incarnations would explore lesser realms for resources, and he considered using a suitable realm to advance A Zi's cultivation.
• Three months later, the long-haired woman defeated the white-robed Flying Spirit Master in a sparring match after advancing her Four Fiends Armor Transformation Technique.
• Commander Zhao Feng told the Five-Light Clan cultivators that Holy Son Xie Yuan had departed three days earlier and left them an improved Four Fiends Armor Transformation Technique.
• Luo Hong hurried toward the Earth Abyss Trial, which was due to begin in a month, intending to help Lei Jiao obtain the Netherflame Fruit and then find Yuan Yao.

Luo Hong joined the Earth Abyss Trial with Cao Shu and Lei Jiao, after Li Zhuolin urged him to assist the Cao Clan and gave him spirit materials he needed. The group entered the Earth Abyss and reached its first layer, where Luo Hong decided to head straight for the third layer.

• Li Zhuolin asked Luo Hong to help Cao Shu during the trial and gave him spirit materials; Luo Hong agreed, partly to repay the Five-Light Clan.
• Two months later, Tang Zhang reported that the Earth Abyss was unusually dangerous, with denser Darkness Qi, and the trial began under the announced three-month Netherflame Fruit rules.
• Luo Hong waited for Cao Shu and Lei Jiao, then led them through the giant gate and across the first layer toward an entrance to the second.
• After they reached the first layer, Cao Shu showed Luo Hong the map, and he chose the nearest entrance because he intended to descend directly to the third layer.

Luo Hong led Cao Shu and Lei Jiao through the Earth Abyss, avoiding a blood-food sacrificial ground before descending to the second layer. After a Blood Flood Dragon was sent to track him, Luo Hong killed a swarm of Golden-backed Demonic Mantises and set out toward a nearby ice-fiend region, but changed course when he noticed a fight involving members of his clan.

• Luo Hong recognized signs of a Giant Spirit Flower sacrificial ground, led Cao Shu and Lei Jiao around its central area, and safely reached the entrance to the second layer.
• At Wood Spirit Cave, the Golden-haired Old Ape gave the Blood Flood Dragon a token that could track the intruder who had attacked his master's true body, and the Blood Flood Dragon sent a duplicate to seek help on the fifth layer.
• Luo Hong killed more than thirty Golden-backed Demonic Mantises as he and the two women emerged into the second layer, then let Lei Jiao collect the insects' materials.
• Luo Hong asked Cao Shu to locate the second layer's ice-fiend region so he could search for Mystic Ice Baleful Crystals, while Cao Shu warned that the crystals were rare and the third-layer alternative was dangerous.
• When Cao Shu and Lei Jiao spotted a battle drawing near, Luo Hong first proposed leaving, then recognized the fighters as members of their clan and turned to help them.

Luo Hong killed a Spirit General-level Greenwood Demonic Beast and claimed its Demon Core, but Chi Li’s group tried to seize the beast’s remains. A bearded dwarf revealed himself as the beast’s powerful master, killed one Chi Rong Holy Son, and attacked another.

• Chi Li and Yan Guang fled from a Greenwood Demonic Beast, then headed toward Luo Hong, Cao Shu, and Lei Jiao, hoping to use them against it.
• Luo Hong shattered the beast’s attack with his fist, broke free of its restraints, and sent the White Dragon Fiend Spirit to tear out its Demon Core.
• Chi Li and the other Chi Rong Holy Sons claimed they had been luring the beast and tried to take its corpse and Essence Soul; Luo Hong and Cao Shu challenged them.
• A bearded dwarf appeared behind the Chi Rong Holy Sons, killed Junior Brother Ming Jiang, and declared that they would repay him for killing his Spirit Beast.
• The dwarf revealed peak Mid-stage Void Refinement cultivation and appeared before another Chi Rong Holy Son, who raised a crimson silk net in fear.

Luo Hong provoked the White-bearded Dwarf to secure its help finding the Rotten Leaf Forest and its possible cache of Mystic Ice Baleful Crystal. After exposing the dwarf’s concealed escape technique and knocking it from the air, Luo Hong faced its Seven Fiends Azure Mist while Chi Li and Yan Guang fled.

• The White-bearded Dwarf killed the Crimson Fusion Holy Son with its green mist after melting his defenses.
• Chi Li and Yan Guang blamed Luo Hong for taking the Greenwood Demonic Beast’s Demon Core, but Luo Hong admitted he had killed the beast and held the core.
• Luo Hong challenged the White-bearded Dwarf, revealing that he had drawn it out to learn the Rotten Leaf Forest’s location and seek Mystic Ice Baleful Crystal.
• Luo Hong detected the dwarf’s concealed escape route and struck it with Universe Power, knocking it from the air.
• The White-bearded Dwarf prepared to attack Luo Hong with its Seven Fiends Azure Mist, while Chi Li called Yan Guang to flee.

Luo Hong defeated the White-bearded Dwarf, captured him, and forced him to hand over a Mystic Ice Baleful Crystal and guide the group toward the Rotten Leaf Forest. As Luo Hong and the others traveled toward the second layer, Chi Li and Yan Guang secretly followed, while the Blood Person Clone reached the fifth layer and warned Lord Di Xue that Yu Shang had entered the Earth Abyss again.

• Luo Hong used the White Dragon Fiend Spirit to counter the White-bearded Dwarf’s Seven Fiends Azure Mist and then trapped him with the Primordial Sword Formation.
• Luo Hong captured the White-bearded Dwarf and demanded a Mystic Ice Baleful Crystal and directions to the Rotten Leaf Forest in exchange for his life.
• The White-bearded Dwarf handed over the crystal and pointed Luo Hong toward the area where the Rotten Leaf Forest had appeared before, and Luo Hong led Cao Shu and Lei Jiao there.
• Chi Li concluded that Xie Yuan had captured the White-bearded Dwarf and persuaded Yan Guang to secretly follow the group toward the Rotten Leaf Forest.
• The Blood Person Clone reached the fifth layer, activated a token to contact Lord Di Xue, and reported that Yu Shang had entered the Earth Abyss and been sensed by Golden Spirit.

Di Xue sent Blood Poison and Chun Gui to intercept Yu Dianzhu, while Luo Hong and his companions continued across the Earth Abyss. Chun Gui and Blood Poison used the Mud Puppet teleportation formation to pursue their target, but their arrival at a Netherflame Fruit site ended with Fei Yu and four Nanlong Holy Sons dead.

• Di Xue ordered Blood Poison to take Chun Gui and Blood Puppets to kill Yu Dianzhu before he could expose the plot involving Mu Qing's true body.
• Blood Poison and Chun Gui traveled to the Blood Flame Palace, where Blood Poison insisted on collecting Blood Puppets to trap Yu Dianzhu, while Chun Gui demanded a chance to fight him alone.
• Luo Hong and his companions continued toward their destination after five days of travel, unaware that Yu Dianzhu's death had created trouble for them.
• Fei Yu and four Nanlong Holy Sons killed seven Mud Swamp Demons and moved to collect their Demon Cores and Netherflame Fruits.
• Mud Puppets emerged from the swamp and began teleporting Chun Gui and Blood Poison to Fei Yu's location.
• Chun Gui released Bone-Corroding Demonic Fire, killing Fei Yu and the four Nanlong Holy Sons as Blood Poison warned him not to scare Yu Dianzhu away.

Mu Qing emerged from seclusion after completing a sacrifice and learned that Blood Poison had betrayed her by helping Di Xue target her true body. She ordered Black Burn to follow Blood Poison and planned to capture Luo Hong alive, while Luo Hong reached Rotten Leaf Forest with his companions to search for a Netherflame Fruit.

• Mu Qing emerged from seclusion in Wood Spirit Cave, confirmed that the sacrifice had succeeded, and asked the Golden-haired Old Ape about recent events.
• The Golden-haired Old Ape reported that Blood Poison had gone to the second layer to investigate the person linked to the stolen spirit item, and Mu Qing revealed that Di Xue had masterminded the attack on her true body.
• Mu Qing ordered Black Burn to follow Blood Poison, capture Luo Hong alive if possible, and report back; she warned that Luo Hong was likely a high-ranking spirit commander of the Five-Light Clan.
• Luo Hong refused to release the White-bearded Dwarf until they found the Netherflame Fruit, then arrived at Rotten Leaf Forest with Cao Shu and Lei Jiao.
• Luo Hong sent Cao Shu and Lei Jiao to search separate areas while he explored the center, where his spiritual sense briefly detected a powerful aura before it disappeared.

Luo Hong and Lei Jiao found the ripe Netherflame Fruits after he subdued a Lion Aspect Beast, but Blood Poison and the Chun Gui Beast ambushed them, mistaking him for a cultivator surnamed Yu. Luo Hong began fighting back, and the chapter ended as his fist smashed through Chun Gui’s protective spirit shell.

• Lei Jiao discovered a Lion Aspect Beast in the pool, and Luo Hong subdued it and stored it in a Spirit Beast Bag.

• Blood Poison attacked Luo Hong with the Blood River Nether Needle, but Luo Hong caught it, destroyed its spiritual imprint, and sent it back toward Blood Poison.
• Chun Gui struck Luo Hong with a Molten Lava Giant Spear, but his armor stopped the attack, and Luo Hong broke through Chun Gui’s protective spirit shell with a punch.

Luo Hong fought the Three-Headed Big Man while Cao Shu and Lei Jiao escaped the Blood Light Screen with the White-bearded Dwarf's help. After Blood Poison's true body arrived, Luo Hong attacked him to weaken his will to fight, then decided to eliminate the Three-Headed Big Man before he could unleash the Three-Harmony Divine Flame.

• Luo Hong's punch forced the Three-Headed Big Man to retreat after black liquid threatened to penetrate his Heavenly Fiend Evil Dragon Armor.
• Cao Shu and Lei Jiao reached the Blood Light Screen, where the White-bearded Dwarf explained how to break the Six Yin Six Wu Formation, and the three escaped.
• Blood Poison's true body arrived with the captured Crimson Fusion Holy Sons Chi Li and Yan Guang, and Luo Hong revealed that Yu Shang was dead.
• Luo Hong activated Heavenly Manifestation and struck Blood Poison with the Glazed Golden Light Hammer, repeatedly pursuing him with Great Five Elements Evasion.
• The Three-Headed Big Man delayed using the Three-Harmony Divine Flame while Blood Poison fought Luo Hong, so Luo Hong resolved to target the Three-Headed Big Man first.

Luo Hong fought Blood Flood Dragon and Chun Gui Beast, countering their divine abilities while enduring Heavenly Gang Blood Thunder. After Chun Gui Beast was poisoned by a hidden Purple Scorpion, Luo Hong pressed his attack.

• Blood Flood Dragon tried to wear Luo Hong down but discovered that Luo Hong showed no signs of exhaustion and called on Chun Gui Beast for help.
