Su Tu discovered that the strange mountains formed a god’s transformed body, and the mark led him to a sacred bone tree whose presence triggered his Gluttony Tribulation. As Su Tu bit into the tree, Chi Ling’s prayer at the Red Eye Clan shrine ended with its three gods’ statues collapsing.

• A red beam shot toward the Other Shore just as the Human Race leaders worried that Su Tu would miss the Ancient Road.

The Ancient Road opened for the True King Contention, and the Human Race sent its selected prodigies inside while Su Tu remained missing. Long Wang arrived to provoke them, but Su Tu appeared at the last moment and crushed him beneath his foot.

• Dean Situ warned the Human Race prodigies about the Ancient Road and urged them to stand together, while Lin An, Si Mu Jiu Chen, and Zhao Lanshan took charge in Su Tu's absence.

• An crushed the remaining prodigies, while Xue Yi revealed that the Ultimate Civilizations wanted to join forces and cleanse the battlefield; Long Wang refused and set out to kill Su Tu.

• Su Tu watched a memory of Sister A Chang restoring the children's intelligence, and she told them that the myths in their minds were their own stories.

Su Tu recovered his lost childhood memories and learned that Sister A Chang’s cryptic words were tied to his past and the road to Daluo, but the revelation left him furious and uncertain. As the Slaughter Wrath Tribulation descended, he slaughtered a battlefield of foreign prodigies, advanced Heavenly Martial to Extreme, and challenged the Six Desires Race to face him directly.

• A Chang told the children they were themselves rather than reincarnations, then revealed a star-filled galaxy and recited a cryptic passage that Su Tu could not understand.
• Su Tu recovered memories of the Star Ark drawing ghostly forms from the children and heard A Chang apologize for the childhood she had given him for the sake of the Human Race.

• Su Tu destroyed the Six Desires Race member’s Collapsing Cave attack, replicated the ability, and understood that his Ji state let him instantly master any technique he had seen.

The Human Race prodigies discovered that the black creatures were manipulating other races into reckless slaughter, and they used the resulting chaos to eliminate the Shan Qiong Race. Above the battlefield, An, Xue Yi, and Wu Ta realized that Ka Yien had encountered Su Tu, who appeared to be roasting the parasitic creature.

• The Shan Qiong Race leader rallied his wounded clansmen after they defeated most of the Heavenly Wolf Race, but their desire for the throne abruptly turned them against one another.

• Xue Yi opened a blood-colored fog mirror, and the three saw Su Tu holding the black creature over a strange flame as if preparing to barbecue it.

Su Tu used Great Freedom to overpower Ka Yien, then survived the Six Desires Race member’s devastating attack with Invincibility and pinned him with Black Dragon Sky Severance. As Su Tu prepared to roast Ka Yien, the consciousness of Tianjue awakened inside the spear and urged him to cook his captive.

• Su Tu copied and surpassed Ka Yien’s Diamond Glaze attack, then revealed that Great Freedom let him master other races’ abilities.
• Ka Yien combined the powers of the Mo Mo Ya Race and the Yi Ao Race, but Su Tu still overwhelmed him and drove him to unleash a devastating attack that erased the space around Su Tu.
• Su Tu survived by activating Invincibility, which ended Great Freedom, and used Black Dragon Sky Severance to pin Ka Yien while he was transformed into a Heavenly Fragrance Pig.
• Su Tu realized Invincibility now consumed his physical reserves rather than entering cooldown, and he prepared to roast Ka Yien to replenish them.
• Black Dragon Sky Severance trembled, and Tianjue’s awakened consciousness told Su Tu to roast Ka Yien because he would taste good.

Su Tu resisted Tianjue’s attempt to use Ka Yien to escape its seal, ate Ka Yien, and gained a major increase in power. When Xue Yi used a treasure to erase Su Tu through great karma, the Great Luo Bone emerged and restored him.

• Tianjue urged Su Tu to use Ka Yien’s power to free it, but Su Tu roasted and ate Ka Yien instead.

• Su Tu noticed that thinking of Golden Pool Great Monk no longer caused him intense loathing, while a child lay in Dragon Raising Temple before a shadow-shrouded man.

Silver Moon sought Golden Pool Great Monk’s knowledge of the youth who had inscribed his name in the origin, but a godlike force killed Golden Pool when he tried to reveal the identity. Meanwhile, Su Tu offered Tianjue the Chaos Egg, and the chapter ended with a system notification that Su Tu had obtained a divine rank.

• Silver Moon asked Golden Pool Great Monk about the person who had left his name in the origin, and Golden Pool agreed to identify him after receiving a Godfall Crystal.

• Su Tu inferred that the Human Race’s origins were a taboo and learned that Tianjue’s tail had become the Starry Sky Great Wall on the Ancestral Star.
• Tianjue explained that his father’s golden scale protected the Human Race and repelled outsiders, then accidentally revealed that the First Emperor had nothing to do with the Great Wall.
• The Eastern Emperor’s aura began annihilating Tianjue, so Su Tu invoked a promise owed to him by the Eastern Emperor, who spared Tianjue and granted Su Tu another opportunity.

Eastern Emperor gave Su Tu a chance to absorb immortal liquid made from his origin blood essence and Great Dao incarnation, transforming his body toward Daluo. As Su Tu chose to consume all of it, Tianjue revealed that the Daluo Fruition would already be within his grasp.

• Eastern Emperor recognized the scroll in Su Tu’s possession and used his power to turn it into a pond of golden immortal liquid for Su Tu.
• Eastern Emperor’s aura halted the battles across the blood-red world, forced the foreign races to kneel, and gave them a chance to realize their losses and stop fighting.

Su Tu devoured the Eastern Emperor’s golden liquid and received a blessing from the Ancestral Dragon, while Tianjue’s true spirit began transferring into the Chaos Egg. In Su Tu’s True Self World, the awakened remnants clashed before Mountain Master stopped them and warned Xi He that the Silver Throne had a problem.

• Su Tu began devouring the golden liquid, shocking Tianjue with the scale of his bodily potential.
• The Chaos Egg appeared beside the Black Spear, and Tianjue’s true spirit began flowing toward it through the Chaos Breath.
• The Black Spear released a drop of Ancestral Dragon essence blood, which split between the Chaos Egg and Su Tu’s golden cocoon; the Ancestral Dragon also blessed Su Tu’s consciousness with boundless potential.
• Little Blood Moon and Big Cat prepared to fight in Su Tu’s True Self World, but Mountain Master intervened and ordered them not to cause trouble there.
• Xi He honored Mountain Master and discussed Su Tu’s potential, but Mountain Master cut her off and said there was a problem with the Silver Throne.

Xi He worried that the Silver Throne’s crisis could disrupt the plans of the weakened powers, while Mountain Master reassured her that many safeguards remained. In the Blood World, Long Wang and Shi Kuang drew the attention of several watching races, but an unknown figure suddenly overwhelmed them both, leaving Long Wang to recognize the attacker’s extraordinary power.

• Xi He raised concerns about the Silver Throne, and Big Cat argued that their weakened group could do little to stop it; Mountain Master listed hidden safeguards, then abruptly suggested renaming himself Slope Master.

Su Tu defeated Long Wang and Shi Kuang, revealed that his transformation had let him wield the Great Dao of Strength, and drew the attention of the watching races. Isaac then used the Elf Clan’s Divine Favor, “Love,” on Su Tu, but a cracking sound interrupted her boast that the effect could not be cured.

• Su Tu shattered Long Wang’s Invincible Heart and defeated him and Shi Kuang, while the Little Asura King chose to wait and Zhao Lanshan led the Human Race prodigies to Su Tu.

• Isaac appeared before Su Tu, transformed into a woman after absorbing a pillar of light, and bound him with her Divine Favor.
• Si Mu Jiu Chen attacked Isaac, who claimed her Divine Favor made Su Tu her lover and an unconditional ally of the Elf Clan.
• A cracking sound and sharp pain interrupted Isaac as she boasted that her Divine Favor had no cure.
