Chapter Summaries

Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy led three God Kings to the flaming Deep Pit, where they found no sign of the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon. Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy ambushed Gong Zhou, but after Gong Zhou escaped the Dao Domain, a powerful sword qi burst from the pit and killed him.

• Demon Illusion Fairy led the three God Kings to the flaming Deep Pit, believing the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon had hidden there.
• The God Kings found no trace of the Tree Demon with their Divine Sense, and Gong Zhou threatened to torture Demon Illusion Fairy.
• Jiang Ping An argued that the Tree Demon might be concealed from Divine Sense, so two God Kings descended into the pit while Gong Zhou stayed behind.
• Jiang Ping An trapped Gong Zhou in his Primordial Dao Domain, and Demon Illusion Fairy froze him with Extreme Ice Seal.
• Jiang Ping An punched Gong Zhou out of the Dao Domain, allowing him to regain his power, but a fourth-tier King-level sword qi erupted from the pit and reduced him to blood mist.

Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy survived after the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon killed their captors, but Jiang Ping An revealed his survival and killed the weakened demon. He collected the spoils from the dead God Kings while Demon Illusion Fairy demanded a share, leaving their argument unresolved.

• Demon Illusion Fairy tried to flee, but Jiang Ping An told her the God Kings were dead and the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon emerged from the fire pit.
• The Tree Demon tried to attack Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy, but Jiang Ping An's Primordial Dao Domain suppressed it and revealed his identity as the Yin Yang Dao Body.
• Jiang Ping An combined Devouring Power with his Dao Domain, drained the Tree Demon's life force, and killed it with a Bone Blade.
• Jiang Ping An stored the Tree Demon's corpse and searched the fire pit for the three dead God Kings' Small Worlds.
• Demon Illusion Fairy asked Jiang Ping An to split the treasures with her, but he refused, prompting her to curse him.

Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy returned to Ruin City to claim the bounty for the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon, but Fengyun Kingdom’s merchant association manager tried to withhold half the reward. Jiang Ping An threatened to expose the manager’s conduct, leaving him trapped between paying up and risking public scrutiny.

• On the way back, Jiang Ping An vaguely explained that his special talent let him see through concealment, and Demon Illusion Fairy questioned how many abilities he was hiding.
• Jiang Ping An and Demon Illusion Fairy returned to Ruin City and brought the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon's corpse to Fengyun Kingdom’s merchant association to claim the bounty.
• The manager verified the corpse but offered only five thousand of the ten thousand Spirit King Pills, saying the rest would be paid after an uncertain verification period.
• Demon Illusion Fairy challenged the delay, and the manager used his Third Level God King pressure to intimidate her.
• Jiang Ping An accused the manager of exploiting the bounty claim and threatened to publicize his conduct, prompting the manager to secretly block the door with a formation.
• The manager hesitated to act after Jiang Ping An warned that the private room’s recordings and public attention could expose him.

Jiang Ping An forced the Fengyun Kingdom supervisor to pay the full bounty and extra compensation for the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon's corpse, then cultivated for ten years inside a time array. After collecting Demon Illusion Fairy's blood essence, he left Ruin City for the Blue Sea Country front lines, intent on fighting the Wildsea Royal Clan and pursuing revenge.

• Jiang Ping An pressured the Fengyun Kingdom supervisor into paying ten thousand Spirit King Pills and another three hundred for the Thousand-Eyed Tree Demon's corpse.
• Jiang Ping An gave Demon Illusion Fairy five thousand Spirit King Pills, and she worried that the supervisor would retaliate against her because she had used her real face.
• Jiang Ping An sorted his spoils, cultivated for ten years under fivefold time acceleration, and paused when his comprehension of the Primordial Calamity Light stalled and exhausted him.
• Jiang Ping An collected thirty drops of Demon Illusion Fairy's life blood essence and told her he was returning to Blue Sea Country to fight.
• Jiang Ping An changed his appearance and left Ruin City, carrying his hatred of Zhuo Shan and the Wildsea Royal Clan as he sought a path to resurrect his family.

Jiang Ping An returned to the ruined Blue Sea Country front-line camp and learned that Lan Shi'er was safe and the Dong Family had been destroyed. As the Wildsea Royal Clan's allied forces approached, Lan Fei ordered the remaining troops to defend the Teleportation Array.

• Jiang Ping An found the camp devastated and could not reach Lan Shi'er with his Sound Transmission Talisman.
• Lan Fei told Jiang Ping An that Lan Shi'er had withdrawn to the Snowy Mountain camp and should be safe.
• Lan Fei explained that the Dong Family had been destroyed after a member obtained the Paradise Saint Tablet, while a soldier's claim that Lan Shi'er had plotted the family's downfall was silenced.
• Jiang Ping An decided to let Lan Shi'er keep the fearsome reputation others had attributed to her.
• A scout reported that the Black Scale Army was advancing from the east, and Lan Fei ordered the troops to activate the remaining defenses and protect the Teleportation Array.

Jiang Ping An joined Blue Sea Country’s defense against the Wildsea Royal Clan and Electric Eel Demon Race, only to learn that their feared Blood Butcher Rear Admiral, Zhuo Bufan, was the opponent he had once defeated. As the battle began, Zhuo Bufan struck down three Blue Sea Country God Kings, leaving Jiang Ping An to face him.

• Jiang Ping An agreed to fight in the ruin camp’s defense after Lan Fei explained the expected casualties.
• The allied enemy army arrived, and its commander announced that Zhuo Bufan, the Blood Butcher Rear Admiral, had joined the attack.
• Blue Sea Country soldiers recalled Zhuo Bufan’s deadly reputation and learned that Jiang Ping An had supposedly killed him before; Jiang Ping An recognized the story as his own past victory.
• Lan Fei asked Jiang Ping An to hold Zhuo Bufan off while he sought reinforcements, and Jiang Ping An agreed.
• Lan Fei led Blue Sea Country’s soldiers into battle as the two armies clashed across the war zone.
• Zhuo Bufan charged the Blue Sea Country God Kings and wounded three with a single strike, then threatened to kill them all.

Zhuo Bufan slaughtered Blue Sea Country’s Cultivators while seeking to avenge his defeat by Jiang Ping An, whom he had believed dead. When Jiang Ping An appeared, Zhuo Bufan recognized his power, panicked, and was pulled back before him.

• Zhuo Bufan recalled how Jiang Ping An had defeated and killed him, driving him to cultivate and seek revenge.
• After learning Jiang Ping An was dead, Zhuo Bufan became the Blood Butcher Rear Admiral and slaughtered Blue Sea Country’s Cultivators.
• Jiang Ping An appeared before Zhuo Bufan, who first felt relieved that the stranger was not his old foe.
• Zhuo Bufan tried to attack the unfamiliar God King, but Jiang Ping An’s Primordial Dao Domain froze his Rule Power.
• Zhuo Bufan recognized Jiang Ping An and fled, but Jiang Ping An twisted space and brought him back, saying Zhuo Bufan still remembered him.

Jiang Ping An revealed himself during the battle and used his Primordial Dao Domain and a powerful attack scroll to wipe out Zhuo Bufan and the Black Scale Army’s First Level God Kings. After helping Blue Sea Country turn the battle around, he was pulled into a mysterious black vortex that nullified his domain.

• Jiang Ping An trapped Zhuo Bufan in his Primordial Dao Domain and drained his divine power with a Bone Spike.
• Zhuo Bufan urged the Black Scale Army’s First Level God Kings to rush into the domain, and Jiang Ping An lured them into a trap before unleashing a scroll’s Second Level God King strike that killed them all.
• The Black Scale Army commander attacked Jiang Ping An, but Lan Fei intercepted him while Jiang Ping An retreated into the Teleportation Array barrier to restore his divine power.
• Lan Fei ordered Blue Sea Country’s army to pursue the retreating Black Scale Army, and Jiang Ping An later looted the fallen God Kings’ Small Worlds.
• A black vortex appeared beside Jiang Ping An, nullified his Primordial Dao Domain, drained his remaining divine power, and pulled him away.

Jiang Ping An was summoned by Azure King, who questioned how he had mastered the Primordial Dao Domain and the Fourth Floor of the Primordial True Martial Scripture. Jiang Ping An offered a guarded explanation, but Azure King rejected it and demanded the truth.

• Jiang Ping An vanished from the battlefield and was transported to an ancient divine hall before Azure King.
• Jiang Ping An endured Azure King's soul pressure, then half-kneeled to avoid risking lasting damage.
• Azure King identified himself and asked why Jiang Ping An thought he had been summoned, while Jiang Ping An suggested he deserved a reward for his battlefield service.
• Azure King asked how Jiang Ping An had cultivated the Primordial True Martial Scripture to the Fourth Floor and mastered the Primordial Dao Domain.
• Jiang Ping An claimed he had followed the Scripture's instructions and gained insight through diligent cultivation, but Azure King called his explanation a lie.

Azure King tested Jiang Ping An’s claim that he had cultivated the "Primordial True Martial Scripture" through sheer endurance, then rewarded him with the Lan Clan Royal Family’s cultivation insights and ordered him to assist the Princess and join the Investiture of the Gods. Jiang Ping An arrived at Snowy Mountain City and reunited with Tuanzi and Little Lion.

• Azure King crushed Jiang Ping An with pressure and accused him of lying, but the divine statues confirmed that Jiang Ping An had spoken truthfully about enduring the scripture’s pain through sheer willpower.
• Azure King praised Jiang Ping An and gave him a jade slip containing the insights of himself and the Lan Clan Royal Family’s ancestors.
• Azure King told Jiang Ping An to strengthen his combat power, participate in the Investiture of the Gods, and assist the Princess, then sent him to Snowy Mountain at his request.
• Jiang Ping An arrived at Snowy Mountain City and prepared to contact Lan Shi'er, but heard Tuanzi and Little Lion arguing about their encounter with a powerful demon.
• Little Lion noticed Jiang Ping An watching its patchy golden dye and threatened to smash his toes.

Jiang Ping An reunited with Tuanzi in Snowy Mountain City and went to find Lan Shi'er and Long Ya. After an awkward interruption during their medicinal bath, Long Ya discovered that Jiang Ping An had broken through to the God King Realm.

• Tuanzi recognized Jiang Ping An and joyfully reunited with him, while Little Lion realized who he was.
• Tuanzi led Jiang Ping An through Snowy Mountain City to the residence where Lan Shi'er and Long Ya were cultivating.
• Lan Shi'er and Long Ya were startled when Jiang Ping An arrived at their White Jade Pool, and they hid beneath the water in embarrassment.
• Jiang Ping An left the courtyard and resumed restoring his divine power while Lan Shi'er and Long Ya got dressed.
• Long Ya confronted Jiang Ping An over seeing them in the pool, but her rune chain shattered against him, revealing his God King Realm cultivation.

After breaking through to the God King Realm, Jiang Ping An learned about the Investiture of the Gods and discovered that powerful figures across the Chaos Sea had recently begun competing in it. He postponed entering the rankings to refine his cultivation, then found Azure King's jade slip contained extensive insights into the Primordial True Martial Scripture and prepared to strengthen a Creation Dao Fruit to mutate his talent.

• Jiang Ping An broke through to the God King Realm, and Lan Shi'er and Long Ya discussed the Investiture of the Gods and its recently surging activity.
• Lan Shi'er explained how Cultivators entered the Investiture of the Gods World, while Long Ya teased Jiang Ping An about challenging the God King Ranking.
• Jiang Ping An decided to delay competing until he had stabilized his cultivation and developed his techniques and understanding of the rules.
• Jiang Ping An read Azure King's jade slip and discovered detailed insights into the first seven layers of the Primordial True Martial Scripture, with deductions for the eighth.
• Jiang Ping An sent an avatar to study the scripture and took out his Creation Dao Fruit, intending to strengthen it with the Heaven Mending Art before consuming it.

Jiang Ping An strengthened the Creation Dao Fruit three times, then tried to use a Spiral Worm and the fruit’s rules to steer a mutation of his Devouring Talent toward gaining Steal Origin. After refining them, he sensed no change, and the experiment appeared to have failed.

• Jiang Ping An strengthened the Creation Dao Fruit three times before running out of divine power and exhausting the Cultivation Room’s supply.
• Jiang Ping An hesitated to eat the fruit because its talent mutation was random and might grant him a worthless ability.
• Jiang Ping An took a Spiral Worm from his gourd and decided to use the worm’s rules to try to guide his Devouring Talent’s mutation.
• Jiang Ping An fed the worm and a drop of Dao Fruit juice to a miniature Devouring Kun, then refined them to fuse Steal Origin with his talent.
• Jiang Ping An sensed no change in the core of his Devouring Talent, and the experiment seemed to have failed.

Jiang Ping An discovered that Spiral Worms had to absorb the Creation Dao Fruit and be devoured while their alteration was still underway to guide his Devouring Talent. After months of cultivation, his power could directly drain an opponent’s divine core Origin, while speculation about the Investiture of the Gods spread throughout the Chaos Sea.

• Jiang Ping An’s attempt to alter his Devouring Talent with thousands of ordinary Spiral Worms produced only vague changes.
• A Spiral Worm that had just eaten the Creation Dao Fruit affected Jiang Ping An’s Devouring Power far more strongly when he swallowed it.
• Jiang Ping An tested his theory and found that devouring a worm during its alteration worked, while waiting until the alteration ended did not.
• Jiang Ping An fed the remaining Creation Dao Fruit to tens of thousands of Spiral Worms and devoured them as their alteration began.
• After months of cultivation, Jiang Ping An gained the ability to drain divine power and directly pull at an opponent’s divine core Origin.
• Across the Chaos Sea, powerful figures entered the Investiture of the Gods rankings, prompting rumors and growing anticipation about an upcoming event.

Jiang Ping An bought King-level Supreme Yang cultivation materials and discovered Long Ya in a furious confrontation at the Investiture of the Gods shop. Long Ya pulled him inside and asked him to help her deal with the people there.

• Jiang Ping An decided to seek divine fire and Supreme Yang Rule materials to speed up his cultivation.
• Tuanzi offered Jiang Ping An Ice Extreme Shrimp, then recruited Little Lion to help it find powerful flames to prove its abilities to their master.
• Jiang Ping An spent heavily at the Freedom Alliance Chamber of Commerce on a King-level Supreme Yang Rule Book and ten clusters of divine fire.
• Jiang Ping An stopped at the Investiture of the Gods shop and heard rumors about the nine top-tier factions and their plans for an upcoming selection.
• Long Ya stormed out of the shop, spotted Jiang Ping An, and grabbed his arm, asking him to help kill the people inside.

Jiang Ping An followed Long Ya into the Investiture of the Gods World after learning the Electric Eel Demon Race was targeting Blue Sea Country cultivators there. He agreed to protect her while she prepared a large-scale array, and the chapter ended as the outnumbered Blue Sea Country God Kings charged into battle.

• Long Ya dragged Jiang Ping An to the Investiture of the Gods World and warned him that soul injuries there could carry over into reality.
• Jiang Ping An entered the world and learned that its restrictions limited Long Ya's powerful arrays and access to resources.
• Long Ya explained that Jiang Ping An needed to protect her while she prepared a large-scale composite array.
• Jiang Ping An and Long Ya encountered Blue Sea Country God Kings gathering inside a safe-zone building as Electric Eel Demon Race fighters taunted them outside.
• The outnumbered Blue Sea Country God Kings rushed into battle, and many burned their soul power as they fought against the Electric Eel Demon Race.

Jiang Ping An returned to the battlefield, rescued a Blue Sea Country God King from Lei Jingyu, and confronted the Electric Eel Demon Race. As Lei Jingyu rallied his allies to exploit the immense cost of Jiang Ping An’s Primordial Dao Domain, more than a dozen God Kings unleashed lightning at him.

• Lei Jingyu captured a female God King and tortured her with lightning after she defied him and invoked Jiang Ping An’s name.
• Jiang Ping An suddenly appeared, knocked Lei Jingyu away, and carried the injured God King to safety.
• The battlefield paused as both sides recognized Jiang Ping An, and Long Ya called for him to return and help draw the formation.
• Jiang Ping An ignored Long Ya and charged Lei Jingyu, determined to fight the Electric Eel Demon Race directly.
• Lei Jingyu urged his allies to exhaust Jiang Ping An’s divine power, and more than a dozen God Kings attacked him with lightning.

Jiang Ping An fought Lei Jingyu while the Electric Eel Demon Race and the Lan Alliance watched, initially struggling against Lei Jingyu’s superior Lightning Rules. After Lei Jingyu activated Myriad Tribulation Thunder and shattered Jiang Ping An’s armor, Jiang suddenly used a mysterious Extreme Yin power that pierced and began corroding his opponent.

• Jiang Ping An absorbed the Electric Eel Demon Race’s lightning bombardment, but Lei Jingyu dismissed his Flame Rules and ordered his clansmen not to interfere.
• Lei Jingyu struck Jiang Ping An into a deep pit, while the Electric Eel Demon Race blocked Long Ya from helping him.
• Jiang Ping An rose with the power of Invincible Belief and fought Lei Jingyu, but remained at a disadvantage as the Lan Alliance’s morale faded.
• Lei Jingyu activated Myriad Tribulation Thunder, overwhelmed Jiang Ping An, and tore through his Demon Bone Armor and flesh.
• Jiang Ping An’s Bone Blade changed from Extreme Yang to Extreme Yin power and pierced Lei Jingyu, whose body began to corrode as Jiang’s Devouring Power absorbed it.

Jiang Ping An used his Yin Yang Dao Body, Devouring Space, and illusions to turn Lei Jingyu’s allies against one another and kill Lei Jingyu inside the Investiture of the Gods World. The remaining Thunder Eel God Kings continued attacking amid the illusions, while the gods outside heard the chaos and wondered what was happening.

• Lei Jingyu recognized Jiang Ping An’s Yin Yang Dao Body, and their renewed clash left Lei Jingyu struggling against Jiang Ping An’s Supreme Yin Rule.
• More than a dozen Thunder Eel God Kings entered Jiang Ping An’s Devouring Space to help Lei Jingyu, and their lightning attack struck their own Young Lord instead of Jiang Ping An.
• Jiang Ping An used illusions to make the Thunder Eel God Kings attack and kill their own clansmen before he severed Lei Jingyu’s head with his Bone Blade.
• After Lei Jingyu identified the illusions, Jiang Ping An and his Shadow Clone exploited the Thunder Eel God Kings’ confusion to kill another God King and keep them fighting one another.
• The Devouring Space filled with chaotic attacks, curses, and screams as the gods outside slowed their fighting and wondered what was happening.

Jiang Ping An used his illusion technique to turn the Electric Eel Demon Race God Kings against one another, then withdrew to cultivate after the battle. Several years later, the nine great powers announced that the Investiture of the Gods rankings would decide who could enter a restored legacy ground from the Fifth God Kingdom.

• Jiang Ping An's illusions confused the Electric Eel Demon Race God Kings inside his Devouring Space, where they killed one another before escaping with heavy losses and reporting that Lei Jingyu had died.
• Reinforcements from the Blue Sea Country Alliance arrived, and the two sides fought a fierce battle until Jiang Ping An left to cultivate with Long Ya.
• Jiang Ping An returned to Lan Shi'er's residence, found Tuanzi and Little Lion absent, and absorbed King-level divine flames to advance his Supreme Yang Rule.
• The war between the Wildsea Royal Clan and Blue Sea Country quieted, and several years later the nine great powers announced the restoration of a legacy ground from the Fifth God Kingdom.
• The nine great powers selected the top ten Investiture of the Gods rankings in each of ten realms, allowing only one hundred candidates to enter the legacy ground.
