• Luo Feng claimed the Tianwu Jade and refused to let the three experts go, just as Li Ze appeared and asked whether his arrival changed their odds.

Li Ze killed the Three-Eyed Black Giant Tiger after he failed to escape their battle, then confronted Ming as the other God King Ultimate experts gathered to watch. Li Ze and Ming began fighting, with Li Ze using the Dao Universe Realm to restrain Ming before their swords clashed.

• Li Ze arrived to help Luo Feng, took on the Three-Eyed Black Giant Tiger, and told Luo Feng to hold off the other two peak God Kings.

Li Ze continued cultivating in the Tianwu Relic World as Tianwu Jades appeared randomly, while the story shifted to Niuyang Ruins, where King Qin fought off a massive group of God King Ultimate powerhouses. The attackers revealed that nearly three hundred God Kings had fallen inside the Tianwu Relic World, and they intended to trap King Qin in the ruins forever.

• Li Ze reflected on how his battle with Ming had improved his secret techniques, then resumed cultivating.

After the presence arrived, King Qin vanished from the ruins and watched from a concealed region of space-time.

• King Qin blocked the attacks of the God King Ultimate experts and waited until the moment he had planned for.
• King Qin used the Black White Qi Flow and nine Supreme Treasure Long Swords to form a sword formation that pierced the grand formation and opened a rift toward the Infinite Source Space.

• The Serpent of Absolute Cold unleashed blue flames and a torrent of ice crystals, which shattered the God Kings' combined attack and pressed toward them.

King Qin watched the Serpent of Absolute Cold overwhelm the God King Ultimates in the Niuyang Ruins, while Li Ze and Luo Feng prepared the Human Race to flee if it appeared on the Origin Continent. The Serpent trapped the survivors in its Silent Dark Domain and began killing them as God King Yougu searched desperately for a way out.

• The surviving God King Ultimates fled, but the Serpent trapped them in its Silent Dark Domain, where their cries and attempted self-destruction were swallowed by the darkness.
• God King Yougu realized the Serpent was killing the trapped God King Ultimates and frantically searched for a way to escape.

God King Yougu’s secret treasure and several God King Ultimates’ self-destructions broke the Serpent of Absolute Cold’s Silent Dark Domain, prompting King Qin to decide to confront him. Meanwhile, God King Lugu overpowered Old Man Tian Ji and his allies in a fight for a newly emerging Tianwu Jade, until Li Ze arrived to challenge him for it.

• Tianyan and another God King Ultimate self-destructed, and God King Yougu used a powerful one-use secret treasure to break the Serpent of Absolute Cold’s Silent Dark Domain.
• As the surviving God Kings fled, another God King Ultimate self-destructed and wounded the Serpent of Absolute Cold, while King Qin watched and chose to stop him in the Niuyang Ruins.

• Old Man Tian Ji and his allies struggled to hold God King Lugu away from the Tianwu Jade until Li Ze arrived and announced that he would compete for it.

Li Ze arrived at the Tianwu Jade battlefield and claimed the treasure, prompting God King Lugu to summon Yuan Xin as backup. When Yuan Xin attacked, Li Ze drew the Heaven Seizing Sword and declared that he would kill his first God King Ultimate expert, leaving the watching God Kings to see how he would answer Yuan Xin’s hammer strike.

• The Serpent attacked King Qin with its horns, and their first clash sent King Qin flying much farther than the Serpent before it charged him again.
