Chapter Summaries

Dun searched the God-Burying Domain for the hidden remnants of the Primordial Gods and discovered a concealed area where a God-Locking Pearl could preserve law power. He realized someone had arranged protection for the Primordial Gods and suspected that person was an enemy of him, Dao, and Tribulation.

• Dun followed a faint primordial aura to a hidden place in the God-Burying Domain, but found no trace of the Primordial Gods.
• Dun unleashed his Chaos Divine Domain and discovered a God-Locking Pearl concealed in a small mound about a hundred feet away.
• Dun summoned his own God-Locking Pearl and found that it could seal in his law power while he remained in the concealed area.
• Dun flew beyond the area and confirmed that his law power rapidly drained elsewhere in the God-Burying Domain.
• Dun concluded that someone had sheltered the Primordial Gods and suspected the unknown person was plotting against him, Dao, and Tribulation.

Dun watched Mie arrive at a little mound in the God-Burying Domain, where Mie discovered that his draining Law Power had stopped. Mie mistook the hidden remnants of the Primordial Gods for someone who had followed him, while Dun observed from above without revealing himself.

• Dun returned to the area and sensed Mie, the Devil Lord of the Annihilation Devil Race, approaching.
• Dun considered attacking Mie but decided to learn why he had come and avoid risking the Forbidden God War.
• Mie reached the little mound and found that his Law Power had stopped draining away.
• Mie used Annihilation Devil Domain, Heavenbreaker, to strike the mound, but his attack failed to disturb its Concealment Formation.
• Mie wrongly believed an outside pursuer was hiding nearby and prepared to attack again, while Dun watched the concealed remnants of the Primordial Gods from above.

Dun searched the void for the hidden person who had arranged the mound, while Mie continued attacking it and considered how its protection might help him survive the Forbidden God War. The creatures drawn by Mie’s attacks remained nearby but would not enter the area, and Dun still had not found the person behind the secret.

• Dun expanded his Chaos Divine Domain and searched the surrounding void for the hidden planner, convinced that the person was still in the God-Burying Domain.
• Mie kept striking the mound, wondered why it resisted his attacks, and noticed powerful creatures approaching but refusing to enter the area.
• Mie realized the creatures might thrive in the harsh environment and worried they could overwhelm him if they attacked together.
• Mie decided to keep attacking the mound, hoping to learn how it shielded him from the God-Burying Domain’s draining effects and gain an advantage in the Forbidden God War.
• Dun continued searching for the planner because he wanted to know how the person had learned the God-Locking Pearl’s secret and why they had protected the Primordial Gods.
• An unidentified speaker remarked that there were interesting creatures in the area.

Dun attacked and killed the Strange-Shaped Creatures that had gathered near Mie, then turned his attention back to the person behind the Concealment Formation. Mie continued striking the little mound, unsure whether his Law Power would last long enough to break through it.

• Dun recognized the Strange-Shaped Creatures as a race whose bodies contained strands of Law Power and decided to capture them for their traits.
• Dun unleashed his Chaos Divine Domain, crushing the creatures before they could escape and finding that their blood vanished into the sand and stones.
• Dun concluded that he could seek out more of the creatures later and refocused on finding the person who had created the Concealment Formation.
• Mie sensed that the powerful threats around him had disappeared and wondered if the creatures had retreated, but continued attacking the little mound.
• Mie unleashed Heavenbreaker and worried that his Law Power might run out before he broke through the formation.

The surviving Primordial Gods had hidden in the God-Burying Domain under the protection of a powerful figure, but Mie’s assault threatened to expose them. The Death God watched Mie, weighing whether to alert their benefactor while Hun-Dun observed from above.

• The Primordial Gods recalled how a powerful figure offered them refuge in the God-Burying Domain and concealed their auras with a formation and divine artifact.
• As the God-Burying Domain became the Forbidden God War battlefield, the Primordial Gods realized their refuge could also be used as a weapon against the Three Great Forbidden Lord Gods.
• The Primordial Gods secretly gathered believers and prepared escape routes, with the Death God and Shadow returning to the Void Realm under cover of the divine artifact.
• Hun-Dun and Mie discovered the Primordial Gods’ hiding place, while Mie continued attacking the Concealment Formation despite his dwindling Law Source Power.
• The Death God judged that fighting Mie could reveal the Primordial Gods to the Void Realm Heavenly Dao and asked whether they should notify their benefactor.

Death God and the other three Primordial Gods debated whether to contact the mysterious being who had hidden them in the God-Burying Domain as Mie attacked their Concealment Formation. They remained trapped between Mie and the watching Forbidden Main God Dun, hoping their protector would appear before the formation failed.

• Death God asked the other four Primordial Gods whether they should notify the person who had sheltered them.
• Dark God doubted that the mysterious being would answer, and the four recalled that he had provided no support since hiding them in the God-Burying Domain.
• The Primordial Gods feared that after the Forbidden God War ended, their protector would abandon them and they would be hunted down.
• Blood God worried that they would simply wait to die, while Killing God judged that Mie might exhaust his law power before breaking the Concealment Formation.
• Killing God believed Dun was waiting for their protector and would avoid attacking until that person appeared.

The Dark God proposed using a communication mark to alert the being who created the Concealment Formation after Mie and Hun-Dun appeared in the God-Burying Domain. The Killing God, Death God, and Blood God refused, leaving the four to watch Mie attack the formation and fear the consequences of contacting that being.

• The Killing God suggested killing Mie if the Concealment Formation was breached, but the Dark God warned that doing so could draw the attention of powerful watchers.
• The Dark God explained that spreading news of Mie and Hun-Dun could bring outsiders to the God-Burying Domain and create a chance for the four gods to act.
• The Death God realized the Dark God wanted to use the single-use communication mark left by the being who created the Concealment Formation.
• The Killing God, Death God, and Blood God shouted that they would not use the mark, fearing the being’s punishment more than Mie breaking through.
• The four gods looked toward the void, wondering whether the communication mark was meant for Hun-Dun or another Forbidden Main God.
