Lei Dong endured his Void Refinement tribulation as the Nether King Banner shielded him and the Emperor Devil Seed’s inheritance strengthened his grasp of the Annihilation and Undying Laws. After the banner sacrificed several of Lei Dong’s treasures to survive the eighth bolt, she forced Mei Xiang and the Chaos Soul Devouring Pagoda to face the final strike.

• Ji Ziyan recognized Lei Dong as Yan Chi Xing's successor and explained that the Mother of All Spirits would be reborn through Ding Wanyan's unborn child.

• Lei Dong arrived in the desolate Barbaric Lands, where black Flying Boats pursued a group of winged beings with emerald-green hair and eyes.

Lei Dong watched the Devil Realm army attack the green-winged beings, then saw Black Giants arrive and turn the battle around. As the High-ranking Devils counterattacked, Lei Dong sensed that he wanted to eat their powerful leader.
