As they prepared to return to Douluo Continent in a month, they settled on a small group of companions suited to the Place of Return’s restrictions and the dangers of spatial travel.

• Qian Chaoguang empowered the Black Warriors and undead, whose Light and Dark Edge swept through the Forest of Aberrations while the former monarchs defeated the Mutated Soul Body Lords.

Their Domain Shuttle went awry and landed them in Dragon Valley, where Qian Chaoguang recognized the Dragon God’s small world and prepared to claim its riches.

• Qian Chaoguang brought historical figures and powerful undead into the Undead Empire, while Bibi Dong remained in the Underworld because the Mind Barrier could not conceal her.

Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong returned to the Undead Empire, reunited with its inhabitants, and then traveled with Dragon One into the Dragon Clan Graveyard. They reached the mass grave of the dragons, where Qian Chaoguang prepared to confront the Dragon God and reflected on the truth behind the dragon clan’s ruin.
