Chapter Summaries

Ji Xinghuo deduced where the Supreme Dark Orb was hidden and found it in a buried You Hui Clan laboratory. After activating the orb, he learned it was Apocalypse Five Stars and gained access to the Nether Hui Spirit Body’s ability information as the spirit rushed back toward him.

• Bi Feng Yuji told Ji Xinghuo that a Supreme Dark Orb could control the Nether Hui Spirit Body, but Ji Xinghuo chose to search for it alone.
• Ji Xinghuo mapped the Nether Hui Spirit Body’s appearances and inferred that it avoided the area where the orb was hidden.
• Ji Xinghuo searched the northern ruins while Bi Feng Yuji, Lola Ning, and Leini searched nearby, then waited for the spirit to appear.
• Ji Xinghuo followed the Nether Hui Spirit Body to a buried laboratory and found a hidden orb in a sealed room.
• Ji Xinghuo touched the Supreme Dark Orb and released psionics into it, learning that it was Apocalypse Five Stars and seeing the spirit’s ability information in his Myriad Stellar Eye.

Ji Xinghuo examined the Supreme Dark Orb and discovered that it housed the powerful Nether Hui Spirit Body. After upgrading his Psionics, he took control of the orb, commanded the Spirit Body to submit, and merged the treasure into his left eye.

• Ji Xinghuo identified the Nether Hui Spirit Body as an artificial Spirit Object with Eclipse-level King of Dark Extinction and several other powerful abilities.
• He learned that controlling the Supreme Dark Orb required Psionics stronger than the Nether Hui Spirit Body’s, so he spent Spirit Source Energy upgrading his Psionics to Level 5.
• As the enraged Nether Hui Spirit Body attacked the sealed room, Ji Xinghuo used his enhanced perception to study it and poured Psionics into the Supreme Dark Orb.
• The Nether Hui Spirit Body began to self-destruct, but Ji Xinghuo established a spiritual imprint on the orb and stopped it by taking control.
• Ji Xinghuo ordered the Nether Hui Spirit Body into the orb, then merged the Supreme Dark Orb into his left eye.

Ji Xinghuo explored the Supreme Dark Orb’s powers, strengthened the Nether Hui Spirit Body, and named it Nine Nether. After disguising the orb’s existence, he sent Nine Nether to drive Bi Feng Yuji and the Brida Suo sisters out of the ruins, then resumed hunting Dark Eaters.

• Ji Xinghuo discovered that the Supreme Dark Orb let him perceive Dark Energy and dark matter, see through obstacles, and create a vast Dark Domain that suppressed detection.

• Ji Xinghuo resolved to keep the Supreme Dark Orb hidden and decided Nine Nether could fight alongside Azure Rainbow if it disguised its appearance.

• After confirming Bi Feng Yuji had led the wounded out, Ji Xinghuo returned to hunting Dark Eaters.

Ji Xinghuo returned from clearing the Eternal Dark Rift with tens of thousands of Ability Seeds, then spent his Spirit Source Energy upgrading his and Azure Rainbow’s abilities.

• Ji Xinghuo left the cleared ruins with 207,015 Spirit Source Energy and reunited with the Branchhorn Cloud Deer before traveling to the Arctic Transfer Station.

After selling Ability Seeds and exchanging True Dragon Coins for Aether Crystals at Ka Lu La’s shop, he learned of a quake-level Black Ring Earth Devouring Worm in the Silent Wasteland.

• Ji Xinghuo found that low-rank Expansion Oddities had no effect on Nine Nether, while Scarlet Emperor Blood Crystals increased its Fusion Count but risked making it lose control if it consumed another.

Ji Xinghuo arrived at the Silent Wasteland to hunt a Quake-level Black Ring Earth Devouring Worm, using rumors about its movements to begin searching westward. He found and killed many lesser Earth Devouring Worms, gaining more than 8,000 Spirit Source Energy on his first day, while the Quake-level target remained unfound.

• Ji Xinghuo reached a northern outpost in the Silent Wasteland and used Electromagnetic Induction to learn that the Quake-level Earth Devouring Worm had last been seen moving west twenty days earlier.
• Ji Xinghuo bought a flying motorcycle and left the outpost to search the wasteland.
• Ji Xinghuo detected three Earth Devouring Worms underground, evaded their ambush, and killed them with psionic lightning, Metal Manipulation, and his ion pistol.

• Ji Xinghuo discovered that one half of the Earth Devouring Worm’s corpse contained a Gravity Field Ability Seed, then faced Yan Wang Ke, who demanded the corpse and threatened him.

After accumulating over five hundred thousand Spirit Source Energy, he discovered the Quake-level Earth Devouring Worm near the wasteland’s western edge.

• Ji Xinghuo decided to save his Spirit Source Energy for other abilities and the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body, then continued hunting until his reserve exceeded five hundred thousand.
• Ji Xinghuo sensed an enormous Earth Devouring Worm buried deep underground and identified it as the Quake-level creature people had been searching for.

Ji Xinghuo tracked a Quake-level Earth Devouring Worm and ambushed it while it hunted a Flood-level worm, but discovered its Earth Crust Master ability let it recover as long as it remained connected to the ground. After more than ten minutes of fighting, neither side had gained the upper hand, and Hunting Teams and Heavenly King-level fighters were converging on the battle.

• Ji Xinghuo followed the Quake-level Earth Devouring Worm underground and watched it approach a herd of Moyun Antelopes alongside a Flood-level Earth Devouring Worm.
• Ji Xinghuo waited until the Flood-level Earth Devouring Worm killed and began eating the antelopes, then joined the Quake-level worm as it crushed its rival.
• Ji Xinghuo, Nine Nether, and Azure Rainbow attacked the Quake-level Earth Devouring Worm, but its Crystal Armor, Gravity Field, and Earth Crust Master ability let it resist and rapidly heal its wounds.
• Ji Xinghuo realized that the Earth Devouring Worm drew energy from the ground and struggled to separate it from the earth as it fought back with earthquakes, Ground Spikes, and boulders.
• Ji Xinghuo and his battle pets remained locked in a stalemate with the Earth Devouring Worm for more than ten minutes as Hunting Teams and Heavenly King-level fighters approached.

Ji Xinghuo escaped Yan Wang Ke’s missile strike and watched the wounded Earth Devouring Worm become the prize in a chaotic battle between several Celestial Kings. Hidden underground, he focused on Yan Wang Ke and planned to avenge the bombardment.

• Ji Xinghuo upgraded Azure Rainbow’s Miniaturization, then fled underground with Azure Rainbow and Nine Nether as Yan Wang Ke’s missile descended.

• Ji Xinghuo teleported into the battlefield and used a Dark Energy Vortex Field and High-Energy Ray to gravely wound Yan Wang Ke.
• Ji Xinghuo transformed into a black torrent, overwhelmed the fighters, and used Lightless Dark Domain to hide Azure Rainbow as it entered the Earth Devouring Worm.
• Azure Rainbow shattered Yan Wang Ke’s armor, and Ji Xinghuo’s Cold Flame Wave killed him while the Earth Devouring Worm escaped deep underground.
• The Aura Fighter, Snow Crystal Dragon Lord, Astral Realm Hunter, and Gang Kui attacked the black torrent, but Ji Xinghuo vanished and left Yan Wang Ke’s charred corpse behind.
• Ji Xinghuo hid underground while the others departed, then tracked the wounded Earth Devouring Worm through his connection to Azure Rainbow.
• Gang Kui surfaced and attacked Ji Xinghuo, who evaded the hammer and warned him not to keep attacking if he wanted to preserve the Earth Crust Master.

Ji Xinghuo traded the Earth Crust Master Ability Seed to Kui Gang in exchange for a promise to obtain Stars Power, then continued hunting and built up more than 900,000 Spirit Source Energy. With the World Extinction Dragon Offering three days away, he upgraded several abilities and discovered that level-five Symbiotic Resonance let him choose an ability to share with Azure Rainbow.

• Ji Xinghuo gave Kui Gang the Earth Crust Master Ability Seed, and Kui Gang promised to bring him Stars Power before the end of the Hot Season or within a year.

• Ji Xinghuo learned that the Yan Wang Family had failed to find Yan Wang Ke’s killer and returned to hunting under Cinder’s identity.
