• Li Yue considered how the Human Race Holy Body had reached the Thirteenth Order, then encountered Ji Xuanne at the edge of his Jurisdiction.
• Ji Xuanne said that “that person” had foretold the return of the age of Deities and described the Divine Path and Human Path as inseparable.

• Li Yue returned through the disappearing passage to the Divine Domain, leaving Qi Mo stunned by the revelation that he was a Human Race Holy Body.
• Li Yue brought out a black box from the Heavenly Monarch Cauldron, identified it as an object left by a high-ranking Deity in the previous Deity era, and opened it with divine power.

Li Yue discovered that the withered yellow talisman was an ordinary object that might serve as a special token, then assessed the vast spoils taken from the Great Chen Imperial Dynasty. He purified the dynasty’s Golden Dragon of Luck and sold its treasures and demonic corpses to the Deity Shop, aiming to fill his first Deity Pool.

• Li Yue wondered whether the Mastermind had granted him a special reward, then looked toward Zhou Zijian, who had said he knew a heaven-shaking secret.

Zhou Zijian told Li Yue about chained, enormous Gods and Devils carving a Void Path and planning to cut down the Divine Path Tree, leaving Li Yue worried about a threat to the Divine Path. Li Yue lent Zhou Zijian Divine Law Fragments, and Zhou Zijian asked to become his Subordinate God.

• Zhou Zijian told Li Yue that his Temple Keeper had seen at least twenty ten-thousand-zhang Gods and Devils in a distorted space, chained as they carved a Void Path.

• Li Yue poured the Great Chen fortune into his Subordinate Seventh Rank Heavenly Emperor Seal to increase its rank.

Li Yue strengthened the Heavenly Emperor Seal, continued cultivating, and prepared for the fifth Grand Sacrifice as his divine power grew. At the sacrifice in Great Zhou, a middle-aged woman who had witnessed the Human Race’s suffering questioned why deities protected only Leixiao Prefecture, and came seeking a way for humans to save themselves.

• The Heavenly Emperor Seal absorbed all 9.22 million units of Great Chen Imperial Dynasty fortune and advanced to the Subordinate Sixth Rank.
