Chapter Summaries

Li Yuan passed all ten trials in the Alien God’s arena and qualified for an inheritance, then chose to become Sigurd Deity’s inner disciple rather than accept the harsher duties of a personal disciple. After receiving the promised Star Art and treasures, Li Yuan prepared to enter the mothership’s inner core, where Qiu Bingzun warned him that another choice awaited.

• Li Yuan used his True Meaning Domain, spear, Divine Body of All Things, and Nine Shadow Clones to defeat the Silver Armored Warriors through all ten trials, though his Source Power nearly ran out.
• Qiu Bingzun confirmed Li Yuan had passed and introduced the wind-element Alien God’s spiritual brand, who offered different inheritance terms for nominal, inner, and personal disciples.

• Li Yuan asked about entering the inner core region, and Qiu Bingzun warned him that gaining something there would require paying a price.

Li Yuan chose to enter the Mothership’s core region, where Qiu Bingzun revealed that he was the Heaven Snake Deity and had selected Li Yuan for a hidden plan. After Li Yuan’s Life Crystal dimmed and the Seven Star Civilization feared he was dead, he awoke forty-six days later and learned he had fused with the Spirit of Heavenly Wind, which had transformed his body and heightened his affinity for the Law of Wind.

• After forty-six days, Li Yuan woke in a vast palace hall and learned from Qiu Bingzun that he had fused with the Spirit of Heavenly Wind.

Qiu Bingzun revealed that he had descended into Li Yuan’s Dimensional Domain with other gods to fight over treasures in the Ancient Immortal Burial Domain.

He agreed to nurture the last Holy Blood Heaven Snake and help it become a Celestial God and rebuild the race, then asked to send word to his home civilization before the three-month process began.

• Qiu Bingzun explained that the Ancient Immortal Burial Domain’s appearance drew gods across the Divine Domain, where many died before reaching it or during the battles within.

• Li Yuan weighed the danger of inheriting the Sky Snake Race’s enemies, agreed to the plan, and swore the two law oaths.
• Qiu Bingzun said the nurturing process would take three months, and Li Yuan asked to send a message to his home civilization first.

Li Yuan began the three-month process of hatching the Holy Blood Heaven Snake, while Qiu Bingzun revealed that he hoped Li Yuan and the snake would eventually help restore the Sky Snake Race. Yu Jinghe returned safely to Bright Moon Base with news that Li Yuan was alive, though Li Yuan remained inside the Mothership.

• Qiu Bingzun told Li Yuan that Yu Jinghe, Xue Yan, and the Beast Emperors were still trapped in the Mothership, and offered him Soul Control methods to subdue them.

After three months of nurturing, Li Yuan completed a Bloodline Contract and welcomed the birth of Liu Bing, a powerful Holy Blood Heaven Snake who regarded him as her master. Meanwhile, Dongfang Ji ordered his people to monitor Li Yuan rather than search for the mysterious force near his cultivation site, leaving the Seven Star Civilization to await Li Yuan’s return.

• Qiu Bingzun began the Bloodline Contract between Li Yuan and the Holy Blood Heaven Snake Egg after Li Yuan had endured three months of consumption.
• The egg hatched into a female cyan Flying Snake who greeted Li Yuan as her master and revealed that her chosen name was Liu Bing, in memory of Qiu Bingzun.

Li Yuan obtained one hundred fourth-rank soul-recovery treasures and used them to endure increasingly painful Visualization Method training, seeking to transform his soul to the Demigod level. He continued the extreme cultivation and began to feel his soul changing, while Fang Hai entered the Nine-Leaf World to pursue his own advancement.
