Chapter Summaries

Han Feng traveled to the Beast Domain with Lin Xian'er to gather Magical Beast clans suffering from declining bloodlines and offer the power of the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame. He arrived at the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan and began addressing the assembled representatives as the Myriad Beasts Saint, warning them that their clans faced extinction if the problem remained unresolved.

• Han Feng left the Four Directions Pavilion Assembly with Lin Xian'er and headed for the Beast Domain to carry out his plan to reshape it.

• Han Feng and Lin Xian'er reached the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan, where Yao Ming reported that most of the invited Magical Beast clans had arrived.
• Han Feng disguised Lin Xian'er with a mask and had Yao Ming gather the clan representatives in a valley.
• Han Feng transformed into a Vermilion Bird form, presented himself as the Myriad Beasts Saint, and warned the representatives that bloodline decline could force their clans into extinction.

Han Feng used the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame to baptize willing magical beasts, strengthening their bloodlines and setting prices for future advanced treatments. He left the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan to manage the program and warned Yao Ming against challenging him, while Lin Xian'er declined to visit the Nine Nether Yellow Spring.

• Han Feng summoned the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame and let it temper the bodies of several hundred magical beasts who had chosen to accept its power.
• Han Feng announced that preliminary baptisms would be free each year and set spiritual-herb fees for advanced baptisms held twice yearly.
• Yao Ming worried that news of the baptism would provoke the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, and Han Feng said Yao Ming could handle its Saints while calling him if Huang Tian intervened.
• Han Feng told Yao Ming that the flame absorbed spilled beast blood as nourishment, then used his overwhelming power to warn Yao Ming not to test him again.
• Han Feng told Lin Xian'er that the baptism was only the beginning and invited her to see the Nine Nether Yellow Spring, but she refused because it was too cold.

Han Feng strengthened the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame through another round of Bloodline Baptisms, prompting the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan to move against the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan. The Sky Demon Phoenix army launched a surprise attack but found the Python Clan prepared with defenses tailored to counter them.

• Han Feng checked on Cai'er, retrieved the improved Netherworld Wind Flame, and reflected on the Flame Mantra’s importance to his cultivation.
• Han Feng and Lin Xian'er cultivated in the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan’s territory, and Han Feng held another Bloodline Baptism for visiting magical beasts.
• Han Feng discovered that the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame had recorded more magical beasts, allowing him to draw on their abilities and transform into Rank 9 beasts.

• The Sky Demon Phoenix army attacked the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan but encountered prepared defenses that hindered their aerial advantage as Python Clan warriors countered with their greater numbers.

• Yao Ming injured Kun Huang in their duel and forced him to retreat, then imprisoned the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan soldiers left behind.
• Han Feng ordered Yao Ming to treat the prisoners properly and demand resources from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in exchange for their release.
• Han Feng selected several strong-blooded Sky Demon Phoenixes and offered them choices: submit to his Heavenly Flame, return to prison, or die.
• Huang Yao refused to answer Han Feng, so he summoned the Myriad Beast Record and commanded her to kneel.
• Huang Yao resisted at first, but Han Feng’s command overwhelmed her, and she slowly knelt before him.

Han Feng divided the captured Sky Demon Phoenixes according to their choices, while Lin Xian'er broke through to Nine-star Dou Zong. After the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan’s victory shook the Beast Domain, Huang Tian planned how to respond to the defeat and negotiate for prisoners.

• Han Feng returned the Sky Demon Phoenix captives to separate cells after revealing that some had accepted the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame’s baptism, while others could await rescue or later face death by their own choice.

• Huang Tian ordered Phoenix to handle the negotiations with Eagle Phoenix accompanying her, and told her Yao Ming was also a Two-star Dou Sheng.

Feng Qing'er joined a Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan team exchanging resources for captives, hoping to rescue her mother, Huang Yao. When she found Huang Yao imprisoned in the Nine Nether Prison, her lightning clone failed to break the Yin Stone and exploded after the guards seized it.

• Phoenix announced that the clan would exchange resources for captives, and Feng Qing'er volunteered to join the dangerous mission to find her mother.
• The exchange team entered Nine Nether Underworld Python territory, where Yao Ming arranged for them to receive only ordinary, unharmed warriors Han Feng had selected in advance.
• Feng Qing'er could not find Huang Yao among the returned captives, so she sent a Three Thousand Lightning Illusory Body deeper into the clan territory.
• Two Underworld Snake Guards secretly led Feng Qing'er's clone to the Nine Nether Prison, where she found Huang Yao bound to a Yin Stone.
• Feng Qing'er tried to break the Yin Stone with her Wind Kill Finger, but the guards seized her and discovered that she was a clone when it burst into lightning.

Feng Qing'er was captured after taking responsibility for her attempt to rescue Huang Yao, while Han Feng pressured Huang Yao to choose between loyalty to her clan and protecting her daughter. Huang Yao emerged from Han Feng's room with a renewed air, and Feng Qing'er was brought before him.

• Underworld Snake Guards surrounded Feng Qing'er and the Heaven Demon Phoenix expedition, demanding that they hand over the rescue plot's ringleader.
• Feng Qing'er stepped forward and accepted responsibility, so the guards sealed her Dou Qi and took her prisoner while the rest of the Heaven Demon Phoenixes were allowed to leave.

• Huang Yao left Han Feng's room looking more spirited, and Feng Qing'er was escorted into the main hall to face Han Feng.

Han Feng imprisoned Feng Qing'er and ordered a public auction of captured Sky Demon Phoenixes to provoke the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan and support a staged infiltration. At the auction, the Heaven Demon Phoenixes intimidated the attending clans, but a Nine Nether Underworld Python Semi-Saint restrained their elder, and the first captive was presented without anyone daring to bid.

• A Nine Nether Underworld Python Semi-Saint countered the elder's pressure and allowed the auction to begin, but no one bid on the first high seventh-tier Sky Demon Phoenix.

The Sky Demon Phoenix Clan faced a public setback at the auction, where Han Feng's Soul Clone bought a Sky Demon Phoenix and the Myriad Beasts Saint revealed himself. After learning of these threats, Huang Tian ordered Phoenix to retrieve the Heavenly Phoenix Feather and destroy the Nine Nether Underworld Pythons.

• Huang Tian confronted Han Feng, and both revealed their cultivation: Huang Tian was a Five-star Dou Sheng, while Han Feng was a Four-star Dou Sheng.
• Han Feng and Huang Tian exchanged attacks, with Han Feng judging Huang Tian’s use of his greater strength to be crude.
• Huang Tian sacrificed his natal blood essence and unleashed the Demon Phoenix Sacred Image, while Han Feng summoned the Vermilion Bird Phantom with Southern Bright World.
• After their attacks collided and the secret realm trembled, Han Feng sensed that Sky Demon Phoenixes might soon arrive and caused a crimson pattern to spread from the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame.

Han Feng used the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame to overpower and kill Huang Tian inside the Sky Demon Phoenix clan’s secret realm, then impersonated him to leave unnoticed. He took the ancestor’s essence blood, but the Spirit Flame was left weakened and in need of recovery.

• Han Feng merged the Myriad Beast Record into his body, raised his strength to early Five-star Dou Sheng, and battered Huang Tian with his Myriad Beast techniques.
