Chapter Summaries

Feng Qi and the Mist Lord faced a powerful Domain Creature that descended through the Space Passage, only for the creature to collapse under the human world's laws. Its katana then possessed the Mist Lord, and Feng Qi struggled to suppress it as the Mist Lord fought back with the Miracle Item inside him.

• Feng Qi and the Mist Lord attacked the descending Domain Creature, but its katana effortlessly cut through their strikes.
• The Mist Lord identified the threat as too powerful and suggested summoning Mu Qing, while Feng Qi recognized the weapon as resembling the Blade Demon's katana.
• The Domain Creature collapsed and died because the human world's laws rejected its body, leaving its katana behind.
• The katana sprang at Feng Qi, but the Mist Lord intercepted it and was pierced; the weapon then began taking control of him.
• Feng Qi used his divine body and elemental power to restrain the katana while the Mist Lord resisted its influence.
• As Feng Qi neared exhaustion, blue light emerged from the Mist Lord, signaling that he had activated the Miracle Item within his body.

Feng Qi watched the Mist Lord resist the demon blade with Miracle Willpower and discovered he could read the blade’s memories through Nightmare Demon. The memories revealed the blade’s former owner, Chao Tian, and ended as more of his past began to surface.

• The Mist Lord’s Miracle Willpower suppressed the demon blade, and he swung it to carve a vast ravine into the earth.
• Feng Qi dismissed his divine form, endured its backlash, and used Nightmare Demon to read the dying consciousness within the blade.
• The memories showed Chao Tian yearning to train with his older sister, who refused to let him wield a blade before he was old enough.
• At his coming-of-age ceremony, Chao Tian failed to gain an ancestral blade’s recognition, so he later had a custom blade forged and named it God Chaser.
• Chao Tian trained relentlessly while his sister rose to become a celebrated talent, and the siblings joined a sparring tournament between the Blade Clan and Sword Clan.
• Feng Qi moved closer to the collapsing Demonic Blade, and another wave of Chao Tian’s memories appeared.

Chao Tian recounted how his sister Chao Xuan’s rivalry with Jian Ji ended in betrayal, loss, and her death, then how he grew into a demon blade determined to defeat Jian Ji and avenge the Blade Clan. After shattering Jian Ji’s Miracle Divine Object, Chao Tian learned the Sword Clan had left for the human world and entered a newly opened Space Passage in pursuit.

• Chao Xuan defeated Jian Ji repeatedly, but the Sword Clan later betrayed the Blade Clan and used the Little Black Pearl to empower Jian Ji, who shattered Chao Xuan’s blade and left her broken.
• Chao Tian forged himself into a Demon Weapon so Chao Xuan could fight again, and they spent years challenging powerful opponents to strengthen the blade.
• Chao Xuan returned to face Jian Ji but was gravely wounded; before she died, she urged Chao Tian to keep growing and fulfill their promise to slaughter a god.
• Chao Tian passed between masters for generations, training them through Ascension Challenges until one master helped him shatter Jian Ji’s sword, "Ji," and its Miracle Divine Object.
• Chao Tian learned that the Sword Clan had left the Seventh Spirit Realm for the human world, then followed a new Space Passage into the unknown to pursue them.

Feng Qi endured the demonic blade’s memories and gained a trace of Blade Intent as he watched the Mist Lord and Chao Tian struggle for control. Their battle ended when Chao Tian recognized Mi Yun as a worthy whetstone and left, while the exhausted Mist Lord collapsed after claiming he was fine.

• Feng Qi read the demonic blade’s memories, suffered intense pain, and unconsciously developed a trace of Blade Intent.
• Chao Tian resisted the Mist Lord’s Miracle Willpower, and both their obsessions drove their powers into a fierce stalemate.
• The Mist Lord and Chao Tian unleashed increasingly powerful attacks, damaging the surrounding landscape and threatening to destroy the Mist Lord’s body.
• Chao Tian’s blade took the form of Chao Xuan and struck at the Mist Lord, but Mi Yun’s will reversed the disadvantage and restored the stalemate.
• Chao Tian broke free and told Mi Yun he was a worthy whetstone; Mi Yun introduced himself and invited Chao Tian to become his weapon, but Chao Tian refused and departed.
• Mi Yun thanked Chao Tian for teaching him how to wield Miracle Willpower, then collapsed unconscious as Feng Qi tried to take him back.

• Feng Qi encountered a group of powerful blood-colored eyes and retreated through the barrier with the captive creature.
• Feng Qi found the creature was becoming an empty shell outside the Domain Field and called Wei Wei to report the failed capture, his survey, and the blood-colored eyes.

Feng Qi discovered that the Forest Domain Field could provide ingredients for healing potions, but the Blood-colored Eye creatures made harvesting there too dangerous, so he prepared to discuss moving the West Supply Zone.

• Mu Qing’s subordinate reported that a humanoid corpse with pink blood and nonhuman meridians had ties to Winter City, and Mu Qing chose not to alert the city’s management while she investigated.

At fifty-four, Feng Qi struggled with the injuries and aging left by borrowing Talent Abilities while watching Mu Qing’s investigation unfold in Winter City.
