Chapter Summaries

Jiang Liu swallowed the supreme consciousness avatar that had been waiting to ambush a hidden being in the Other Shore Sea of Blood. The breakthrough strengthened Jiang Liu’s Divine Sense enough for it to spread through the sea of blood, though he did not know what his exposed Divine Sense might attract.

• The figure monitored the sea of blood, hoping to lure out its hidden beings so he could seize the True Realm’s Void Source.
• The figure waited for the exposed supreme avatar to reveal a flaw, hoping to strike it without losing control over Jiang Liu.
• Jiang Liu used the Data Panel to conceal his full power and swallowed the supreme avatar before it could react.
• After killing the avatar, Jiang Liu’s aura surged, and his Divine Sense broke free of its suppression.
• Jiang Liu realized he could spread his Divine Sense through the sea of blood, but feared the exposure might draw danger.

After Jiang Liu devoured the supreme avatar’s consciousness, the Sea of Blood erupted into chaos, disrupting the battles and giving Chaos True Lord a chance to refine the scattered aura for cultivation. Deep in the Sea of Blood, Chi Ling confronted a phantom figure who threatened to annihilate it for causing disorder.

• Jiang Liu devoured the supreme avatar’s consciousness, triggering a storm that swept through the Sea of Blood and disrupted the ongoing battles.
• Qiong formed a black barrier to protect himself and sent black aura toward Qionggang, while Chaos True Lord fled from the storm before trying to withstand and refine its scattered aura.

• The Spirit of the Sea of Blood appeared as a crimson figure before a phantom, who addressed it as Chi Ling and threatened to annihilate it for stirring up trouble.

Jiang Liu learned more about the Three Gods of the Sea of Blood and considered relying on them to oppose the True Realm's supreme being. As he tried to retreat from the sleeping Chi Yang, Chi Yang woke and attacked him.

• Jiang Liu watched Chi Ling and Chi Yue battle and discovered the sleeping Chi Yang nearby.
• After devouring the supreme avatar, Jiang Liu recalled that the Three Gods of the Sea of Blood were more powerful than Qiong and the Spirit of the Sea of Blood.

Jiang Liu returned to the Chaos Space after breaking through to the Embryonic Transformation Realm and removing the True Realm supreme being’s hidden danger from his body. He learned that changes in the Hongmeng Star Realm had greatly strengthened the Chaos Space’s cultivation energy, then entered the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation and was greeted by one of the women.

• Jiang Liu used his Divine Sense to check the Winter Rest Palace and found that the women were cultivating in the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit appeared after Jiang Liu left and showed signs of rapidly improving cultivation.
• Jiang Liu asked the Chaos Space Consciousness about the changes and learned that the remaining True Realm Power had mutated after the True Realm lifeforms in the Hongmeng Star Realm were wiped out.
• The Chaos Space Consciousness explained that the mutation had increased Star Realm Power and made the chaos qi far denser and more potent throughout the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu entered the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, worried that its unusually dense chaos qi might harm the women, especially Feng Yue.
• A delighted woman flew toward Jiang Liu and greeted him as he returned.

Jiang Liu reunited with Feng Yue and the other women, whose cultivation had advanced as they suppressed their breakthroughs. After hearing about the dangers in the True Realm, they gave up on joining him there and remained in the Hongmeng Star Realm.

• Jiang Liu recounted the dangers he had faced in the True Realm, and the women abandoned the idea of going there with him.
• Jiang Liu encouraged the women to cultivate in the Chaos Space, while Feng Yue and Murong Yin suggested celebrating his return together.

• Jiang Liu encouraged the Hall of Governmental Affairs and went to Winter Rest Palace to investigate changes caused by its spirit’s breakthrough.

Chi Yang lost track of Jiang Liu and headed toward the battle between Chi Xing and Chi Ling. As Chi Xing confronted Chi Ling, the chapter revealed Chi Ling’s long-standing plan to use Jiang Liu to obtain the Other Shore Flower and then devour him.

• Chi Yang failed to find Jiang Liu anywhere in the sealed Sea of Blood and went toward the sounds of battle.
• Chi Xing and Chi Ling fought in earnest, while their Law Power faded into the Sea of Blood beyond the battlefield.

• Chi Ling had cultivated Qiong to restrain himself and had tried to obtain the Other Shore Flower through creatures he controlled.
• Chi Ling planned to devour Jiang Liu after Jiang Liu swallowed the Other Shore Flower.

Chi Ling fought Chi Xing with power that shocked him, while Chi Yang secretly watched, suspecting Chi Ling had helped Jiang Liu escape. The battle continued as Chi Yang left without confronting either fighter.

• Chi Yang suspected Chi Ling had helped Jiang Liu escape through the collapsed passage and waited for a chance to investigate.
• Chi Yang quietly left while the battle raged, and the fight's noise later diminished while still seeming to continue from outside.

Chi Ling and Chi Xing formed a temporary alliance and followed Chi Yang’s trail, expecting to find him with Chi Yue. They arrived as Chi Yang fought against a distant, starry sky, and the chapter left the battle unresolved.

• Chi Xing realized Chi Ling and Chi Yang had surpassed him after Chi Ling revealed that Chi Yang had been nearby without his noticing.
• Chi Ling and Chi Xing left false figures fighting in their place and separately followed the aura Chi Ling had planted along the route.
• Chi Xing suspected Chi Yang had gone to meet Chi Yue, while Chi Ling planned to use their alliance against Chi Yang and Chi Yue.
• Chi Yang shattered several blades carrying lunar essence, sent a powerful airflow toward the distant starry sky, and stepped into it.

Chi Yang entered the blood-red starry sky to find Chi Yue and recruit him into an earlier plan, using a gruesome tea set made from a creature’s skull to absorb Soul Force as he waited. After Chi Yue appeared as an unresponsive phantom and attacked, the space around Chi Yang suddenly turned stagnant.

• Chi Yang called for Chi Yue in the blood-red starry sky, then sat down to brew and drink tea infused with a creature’s Soul Force.

• Chi Yang sealed part of the starry sky and exposed Chi Yue’s phantom hanging in the distant void.
• Chi Yue sent red spikes at Chi Yang, who swallowed them, and the space around Chi Yang suddenly grew stagnant.

Chi Yang realized Chi Yue had trapped him in an illusion and suspected Chi Yue was hiding from a more dangerous presence. Chi Xing and the Spirit of the Sea of Blood entered the area and found a collapsed scarlet starry sky, where Chi Yang was already fighting.

• Chi Yang struggled against Chi Yue’s illusion, but the attacks seemed prearranged and Chi Yue’s true location remained hidden.

Ying Kong concluded that Chi Yue had hidden himself in the Other Shore Sea of Blood while the Dark Divine Hall sought to seize the sea and eliminate the Three Gods of the Sea of Blood. After completing his reconnaissance, Ying Kong returned to the Dark Divine Hall and noticed that it had begun to reveal its location.

• Ying Kong reflected that the Dark Divine Hall wanted to control the Other Shore Sea of Blood because of its immense energy and its importance to controlling the True Realm.

• Ying Kong left Chi Yue's hiding place after forcing Chi Xing and Chi Yang to reveal themselves, intending to report back before the Hall decided its next move.
• Ying Kong traveled through the void to the Dark Divine Hall, concealing his passage with his mastery of space.
• Ying Kong noticed that the Dark Divine Hall was faintly glowing and exposed, unlike before, then continued toward it.

Ying Hong confronted his son Ying Xue after learning that Ying Xue had secretly plotted against the Other Shore Sea of Blood. Ying Xue had become master of the Dark Divine Hall while his father remained hidden and injured, and Ying Hong feared the Sea of Blood’s concealed strength.

• The Dark Divine Hall remained hidden in the True Realm’s void, protected by its formidable strength and guarded halls.
• A powerful but faint aura erupted inside a small hall, while an invisible formation concealed it from the guards.
• Ying Hong summoned Ying Xue and angrily accused him of secretly moving against the Other Shore Sea of Blood.
• Ying Hong’s injuries from a battle ten thousand years earlier had led him to pass the hall master position to Ying Xue, who had since developed the Dark Divine Hall cautiously.
• Ying Hong warned against attacking the Other Shore Sea of Blood because its hidden experts and enduring power made it more dangerous than it appeared.

Ying Hong warned Ying Xue that the Other Shore Sea of Blood hid powerful forces after Ying Xue launched an assault. Ying Xue agreed to withdraw the Dark Divine Hall’s forces and keep them concealed, leaving to carry out the retreat.

• Ying Hong realized Ying Xue’s attack could expose the Dark Divine Hall and threaten its unstable position.

• Ying Hong advised Ying Xue to withdraw the forces, conceal their tracks, and keep them from returning to the Dark Divine Hall until safe.
• Ying Xue accepted the advice and flew toward the Main Hall to handle the withdrawal.

Ying Xue ordered Ying Kong to withdraw everyone from the Other Shore Sea of Blood after learning that continuing the Dark Divine Hall’s plan could cost them all their lives and endanger the Hall. Ying Kong questioned the order, which would waste their intelligence efforts and damage Ying Xue’s authority, but he recognized Ying Xue’s willingness to sacrifice his prestige to save his subordinates.

• Ying Kong arrived at the Dark Divine Hall’s Main Hall and sent his aura toward the rear, where Ying Xue appeared to meet him.
• Ying Xue, having reconsidered the threat from the Other Shore Sea of Blood, ordered Ying Kong to withdraw everyone who had entered it.
• Ying Kong objected that the withdrawal would squander their intelligence work and leave him unable to answer to his subordinates.
• Ying Xue warned that anyone left inside the Sea of Blood might be trapped and drag down the Dark Divine Hall.
• Ying Kong admired Ying Xue’s willingness to damage his own authority to save his people, but asked whether there was truly no other way.

After the plan to seize the Other Shore Sea of Blood failed, Ying Xue ordered Ying Kong to arrange a discreet evacuation, while Ying Kong prepared to protect the remaining death warriors. Ying Xue then summoned the Elder Council to face opposition from powerful elders and discuss how to withdraw safely.

• Ying Xue told Ying Kong that he had to hide away from the Dark Divine Hall while the Other Shore Sea of Blood's mark was removed, without receiving help from the hall.
• Ying Kong accepted that the plan had failed and left to arrange the evacuation, prioritizing the remaining death warriors over himself.

• Ying Xue summoned the elders, whose council could investigate or even depose the hall master, and waited as they arrived.
• Ying Chi arrived and sat down, then the doors closed and the meeting on the failed plan and safe withdrawal began.

In the Dark Divine Hall’s Elder Council, Ying Kuo and Ying Jie clashed after the failed invasion of the Other Shore Sea of Blood, while Ying Xue suspected the elders were manipulating events. Ying Su ended the disturbance by ordering Ying Kuo punished.

• Ying Kuo unleashed an aura in the Elder Council, and Ying Jie suppressed it while challenging his behavior before the elders.
• The elders recalled that Ying Jie had supported Ying Xue’s invasion plan and had persuaded other elders to approve it, though many had continued to oppose it.
• After the invasion failed and cost many people, elders blamed Ying Xue and called for Ying Hong to return as Hall Master.
• Ying Xue watched Ying Kuo and Ying Jie and suspected the elders were secretly directing the recent events.
• Ying Su ordered Ying Kuo barred from entering the divine hall to worship once as punishment.

Ying Su punished Ying Kuo by barring him from the next Dark God ritual, suppressing signs of unrest in the Dark Divine Hall. Ying Xue ended the dispute and resumed planning for the people sent to the Other Shore Sea of Blood, while Ying Kong arrived at its entrance, ready to enter.

• Ying Su barred Ying Kuo from participating in the next special ritual, and the elders understood the punishment as a move to suppress growing unrest.
• Ying Kuo accepted the punishment, while Ying Jie worried the elders had noticed their secret maneuvers.
• Ying Xue wondered whether Ying Su had acted on Ying Hong's instructions and concluded the Elder Council might still be under his father's control.
• Ying Xue ended the dispute and directed the elders to discuss how to settle the people they had sent to the Other Shore Sea of Blood.
