Chapter Summaries

Xue Hui and the Nanmen Family purged the Hidden Clans and Hidden Sects after their schemes weakened the Dou Ling Empire. When Huo Yuhao and his companions reached Lingdou City, they joined the battle against the Sun Moon Empire’s divine-powered formation, while Wu Feng learned that Tang Wutong had become a god.

• Xue Hui rejected the minister’s accusations and revealed that the allied army and Hidden Clans had undermined the Dou Ling Empire’s defenses.
• Nanmen Yuzhi and Nanmen Yuruo killed the court officials from the Hidden Clans and Hidden Sects, while Believer Clans and Nanmen Yun’er’s forces purged their people and strongholds elsewhere.
• Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, Jin Qiuer, and Zhang Lexuan arrived as the Sun Moon Empire’s legions besieged Lingdou City’s inner city with a combined formation that summoned a divine-aura Evil Eye Tyrant phantom.
• Wu Feng attacked the phantom but was knocked from the sky, then argued with Huo Yuhao after he caught her and denied reading her mind.
• Zhang Lexuan, Jin Qiuer, and Tang Wutong fought the phantom, and Huo Yuhao told Wu Feng that Tang Wutong had become the Level Two God Butterfly God.

Tang Wutong defeated the Sun Moon Empire’s legions, but their captain activated a hidden signal that summoned the Corpse God. Huo Yuhao revealed that Eunuch Gao now controlled the god-level zombie body, with power comparable to a Level One God.

• Tang Wutong shattered the Evil Eye Tyrant phantom and incapacitated the Sun Moon Empire’s legions with two strikes from her Clear Sky Hammer.
• The Evil Monarch Soul Engineer Legion’s captain activated Xu Tiancheng’s contingency in the array disk, sending a signal flare into the sky.
• A powerful aura descended, and the Corpse God appeared instead of Xu Tiancheng.
• Eunuch Gao, fused with the Corpse God, descended in a complete zombie body while Huo Yuhao watched him.
• The Corpse God’s strength reached Level Three God, though his aura rivaled a Level One God’s.

Tang Wutong fought the Corpse God, whose three divine rings and deadly poison overwhelmed her first attack. After learning he had enslaved Qian Duoduo’s soul in the Oolong Shield, she resolved to free him and struck the Corpse God with her ultimate hammer technique, leaving his fate unclear.

• Tang Wutong charged the Corpse God and was knocked back by his Myriad Extinction Corpse Poison Palm.
• Tang Wutong combined the Haotian Nine Absolutes with the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, but the Corpse God blocked her strikes with the Oolong Shield.
• The Corpse God revealed that he had turned a Titled Douluo into a zombie and absorbed Qian Duoduo’s martial soul, body, and soul into the shield.
• Huo Yuhao urged Tang Wutong to kill the Corpse God and free Qian Duoduo, and Tang Wutong renewed her attack despite her hesitation.
• Tang Wutong completed eighty-one hammer strikes and unleashed Nine Nines Return to One, shattering Qian Duoduo’s ghostly figure and the Oolong Shield before a black pillar of light swallowed the Corpse God.

Tang Wutong’s god-level attack failed to harm the Corpse God, who then trapped the fighters in his domains and badly wounded Jin Qiuer and Zhang Lexuan. As Huo Yuhao faced the Corpse God, Tang Wutong called for him to stand aside and announced that she would detonate her rings.

• Tang Wutong unleashed a strike with the Clear Sky Hammer, but the Corpse God devoured it without injury and counterattacked with Evil Thunder.
• Huo Yuhao shielded Tang Wutong as Jin Qiuer’s Golden Dragon Spear pierced the Corpse God’s arm, prompting him to unleash the Zombie Emperor Domain and Bloodlust Domain.
• Huo Yuhao and the others fought the Blood Qi Souls, while the Corpse God struck Jin Qiuer and left her gravely wounded.
• Tang Wutong rescued Jin Qiuer, but Zhang Lexuan fell after trying to stop the Corpse God, and Wu Feng went to save them.
• Huo Yuhao confronted the Corpse God as Tang Wutong ordered him to let her take over and declared, “Ring Detonation!”

Tang Wutong detonated all ten of her soul rings to unleash the Great Sumeru Hammer, but the Corpse God survived by recovering with Old Zhuang’s Life Ancient Tree. As the Corpse God threatened Shrek’s people, Huo Yuhao began burning his power and the Golden Ancient Tree to hold him off.

• Tang Wutong detonated her ten soul rings and struck the Corpse God with the Great Sumeru Hammer, a blow with the might of a Level One God.
• Huo Yuhao projected Tang Wutong’s attack into the divine kingdom, where Electrolux and the Holy Spirit Feathered Serpent discussed the technique and Huo Yuhao learned it.
• The Corpse God reappeared after using Old Zhuang’s Life Ancient Tree to convert its vitality into Death Qi and heal his wounds.
• The Corpse God offered to spare those who swore loyalty and demanded that the others become his soul rings, but Huo Yuhao refused and told Tang Wutong to lead the others away.
• Huo Yuhao merged his power with the Golden Ancient Tree, began burning himself, and crossed the hundredth-level threshold as he invoked Divine Descent.

Huo Yuhao used Divine Descent to hold off the Corpse God while Lingdou City's defenders and civilians tried to escape. Their retreat was threatened by the Corpse God's poison, a Zombie Army, and Zhou Yi and Mu Jin, who had become powerful Blood Qi Souls and blocked Shrek Academy's route.

• Huo Yuhao's golden Dragon Shadow clashed with the Corpse God's Myriad Extinction Corpse Poison Palm, and he dodged the strike before continuing to stall the Corpse God.
• Tang Wutong ordered Zhang Lexuan, Wu Feng, Nanmen Yuzhi, and others to evacuate, while she stayed with the gravely injured Jin Qiuer.
• An Lengye and Feiyu Yan tried to escort Xue Hui through a secret passage, but the Corpse God's poison affected it, forcing them to attempt a direct escape.
• The Corpse God unleashed his Bloodlust Domain, sent Blood Qi Souls into Lingdou City, and a Zombie Army appeared outside the city.
• Zhou Yi and Mu Jin blocked the escaping Shrek Academy group, revealed their Blood Qi Soul forms and nine Blood Qi Soul Rings each, and combined their powers to stop Wu Feng's attack.

Wu Feng and Zhang Lexuan led a retreat while An Lengye and Feiyu Yan fought Zhou Yi and Mu Jin. Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer combined their powers into Creation Power against the Corpse God, then Tang San arrived through Sea God Descent as the battle reached its climax.

• Wu Feng and Zhang Lexuan withdrew with Shrek Academy's important personnel while An Lengye and Feiyu Yan fought Zhou Yi and Mu Jin.

• The Corpse God activated the Blood Slaughter Orb and briefly reached Level One God strength.
• Tang San's Sea God mark appeared on Tang Wutong's brow, and he declared that the Corpse God had earned his death.

The Corpse God and Eunuch Gao attacked Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer with the World-Destroying Swan, but Tang San disrupted its power and forced them to retreat. Tang San then dissipated after bidding farewell to Tang Wutong, leaving Huo Yuhao to break the mood with a joke.

• Eunuch Gao fused with the Corpse God and unleashed the World-Destroying Swan, threatening to kill Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer.
• Tang San drew out divine powers from Tang Wutong, Jin Qiuer, and Huo Yuhao, then used a scarlet trident to strike the World-Destroying Swan's flaws.
• The World-Destroying Swan dissipated, and the injured Eunuch Gao dragged the Corpse God away while Tang San lacked the strength to pursue them.
• Tang San escorted Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer to the ground, praised Tang Wutong's companions, and asked Huo Yuhao to protect her before dissipating.
• Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer cried over Tang San's departure until Huo Yuhao reminded them that the Sea God Ancestor was not dead; both girls stepped on his foot and left.

After the Dou Ling Empire’s defeat, Huo Yuhao and his companions returned toward Shrek Academy while he worked to secure Tang Wutong’s luck for himself. Meanwhile, Zhang Lexuan considered the White Lotus Sect’s Bright King, whose divine rank was summoned by the sect’s believers.

• The Snow Wisdom Empress led the remaining Dou Ling Empire forces toward the Star Luo Empire, and Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, Jin Qiuer, and Zhang Lexuan returned to Shrek Academy.
• Huo Yuhao noted that Tang San’s influence over Jin Qiuer had been cleansed and his imprint on Tang Wutong weakened, then used his luck to brand Tang Wutong’s luck with his own mark.
• Zhang Lexuan asked Huo Yuhao whether the White Lotus Sect’s Bright King truly existed and said the Bright King might not become their enemy.
• White Lotus Sect believers gathered around a totem pillar and offered their faith in a ritual.
• The totem pillar released white radiance, and the Bright King descended from the void onto Douluo Continent.

Huo Yuhao and the others encountered the Bright King's Godhood Inheritance, which Zhang Lexuan chose to accept despite concerns that it might be a trap. The inheritance entered Zhang Lexuan and revealed its teachings, including a promise of a God King Godhood for those who reached Limit Douluo through the Joyful Method.

• Tang Wutong sensed an approaching God-level power, and the group prepared for a possible attack.
• Zhang Lexuan recognized the incoming white light as the Bright King and collapsed in fear, while Huo Yuhao explained the deity's connection to the White Lotus Sect.
• Jin Qiuer attacked the white light with her Golden Dragon Spear, but Huo Yuhao secretly controlled it to keep the spear from devouring the Bright King's Godhood Inheritance.
• Tang Wutong identified the white light as a wild Godhood Inheritance, and Zhang Lexuan chose to accept it so she could gain power to help protect the academy and continent.
• Jin Qiuer let the inheritance reach Zhang Lexuan, and it enveloped her in white light while revealing its teachings and the possibility of a God King Godhood.

Zhang Lexuan fully absorbed Ming Wang's godhood inheritance, healed her injuries, and broke through to rank 96. She learned the inheritance had no God Trial but required Huo Yuhao's help with a hundred days of dual cultivation, which began as Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer kept watch outside the tent.

• Zhang Lexuan completed the godhood inheritance and revealed that her Silver Moon Martial Soul had grown stronger and her injuries had healed as she reached rank 96.
• Zhang Lexuan explained that Ming Wang's godhood had granted her a Body Martial Soul, which Huo Yuhao named Goddess Body.
• Zhang Lexuan told Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer that she had no God Trial and only needed to reach rank 99 to begin inheriting the godhood.
• Zhang Lexuan revealed that her inherited cultivation technique required Huo Yuhao's help refining residual power and cultivating together without interruption for one hundred days.
• Huo Yuhao began cultivating with Zhang Lexuan inside the tent while Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer stood guard outside, embarrassed by what they heard.

Huo Yuhao explained the Ming Wang Yin-Yang Method and its stages to Zhang Lexuan, who could use it to pursue godhood. After a brief success on the front lines, the allies were forced back to Heaven Dou Empire when Sun Moon Empire assassins caused a collapse and the Cihang Demon reappeared.

• Huo Yuhao explained how the Ming Wang Yin-Yang Method could help Zhang Lexuan advance from Titled Douluo to godhood, while leaving her to comprehend the Yin-Yang Law herself.
• After cultivating through the night, Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan joined Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer and returned from supporting Dou Ling Empire.
• Shrek Academy’s hidden God-level Experts helped hold the borders of Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire, and Star Luo Empire pushed back Sun Moon Empire’s forces.
• A week later, Sun Moon Empire assassinated Heaven Dou Empire’s frontline generals and nobles, causing its army to collapse and forcing Huo Yuhao and the others to return to assist.
• Hua Yao’s intelligence reported that the Cihang Demon had appeared among Sun Moon Empire’s experts and that an elusive God-level Expert with extremely evil divine power was also suspected of attacking Heaven Dou Empire.

Huo Yuhao and Shrek Academy’s reinforcements arrived to help the Heaven Dou Empire resist Ju Zi’s advancing forces and stop the assassinations. After planning a trap for the hidden killers, Zhang Lexuan gathered several women to cultivate with Huo Yuhao while Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer stood guard.

• Snow Jade Prince welcomed Huo Yuhao’s reinforcements and asked him to save the Heaven Dou Empire, and Huo Yuhao promised to deal with the assassins and suspected God-level Expert.
• Hua Yao briefed Huo Yuhao and the others on the fewer-than-ten Titled Douluo assassins, their Soul Tools, and the evil divine power that interfered with her.
• Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer agreed that the group had enough strength to trap the killers, and everyone planned to lure them into an ambush that night.
• Zhang Lexuan explained her Bright King inheritance cultivation technique to Ma Xiaotao, Hua Yao, Ling Luochen, and Wu Ming, and invited them to cultivate with Huo Yuhao.
• Zhang Lexuan asked Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer to stand guard while the others cultivated, and they reluctantly took up the duty.

Huo Yuhao and his allies intercepted a Sun Moon Empire assassination team, but Cain, the Rakshasa God, appeared and fought Tang Wutong, Hua Yao, and Jin Qiuer. Meanwhile, more assassins struck across the Heaven Dou army as Ju Zi led the Fire Phoenix Legion in a raid.

• Five Titled Douluo assassins entered Huo Yuhao’s tent, where he revealed his Limit Douluo power and froze them alive.
• A hidden god tried to free the assassins, but Hua Yao blocked the attack long enough for Huo Yuhao to retreat with his captives.
• Tang Wutong located Cain, the third-generation Rakshasa God, and attacked her with the Clear Sky Hammer.
• Hua Yao and Jin Qiuer joined Tang Wutong, while Cain used her Rakshasa Domain and Hua Yao countered with the Flower God Domain.
• Twenty-five Imperial Reverse Scale assassins attacked Heaven Dou army officers in teams as Ju Zi led the Fire Phoenix Legion in a night raid.

Huo Yuhao joined the battle against Cain, the revived inheritor of the Rakshasa God, while his allies defended the Heaven Dou Empire's commanders and Snow Jade Prince. Just as the Purple Gold Butterfly Dragon Transformation confronted Cain, Ju Zi's new Fire Phoenix Legion arrived, and Cain summoned the Rakshasa Imperial Guard led by Tang Ya.

• Huo Yuhao sent Wu Ming, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Zhang Lexuan to protect the other battlefields and Snow Jade Prince, then joined the fight against Cain to fulfill his Sea God's Eighth Trial.
• Tang Wutong and Jin Qiuer teamed up with Huo Yuhao in the Purple Gold Butterfly Dragon Transformation, wielding the Clear Sky Hammer and Golden Dragon Spear against Cain.
• Cain summoned her Rakshasa Dharma Form, filling the Heaven Dou Empire's legions with despair.
• Ju Zi arrived with the newly formed Fire Phoenix Legion for its first battle.
• Cain summoned the Rakshasa Imperial Guard, whose members had been transformed from the former Fire Phoenix Legion, with Tang Ya as their commander.

The Heaven Dou Empire's army was thrown into disarray as Ju Zi's New Fire Phoenix Legion and Tang Ya's Rakshasa Imperial Guard joined the battle. In the sky, Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer brought down Cain with a coordinated attack, but Cain launched one final strike as she died.

• Tang Ya led the Rakshasa Imperial Guard into battle, while Ju Zi ordered the New Fire Phoenix Legion to bombard the Heaven Dou Empire's army with mobile Soul Guidance Cannons.
• Ju Zi's attack and the fighting across the battlefield broke the Heaven Dou Empire's morale, and Snow Jade Prince declared the empire finished until Zhang Lexuan pointed to the battle in the sky as their remaining hope.
• Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong, and Jin Qiuer coordinated a Creation Power strike with Hua Yao's restraint, exhausting their Martial Soul Fusion Skill but failing to kill Cain outright.
• Huo Yuhao seized Jin Qiuer's Golden Dragon Spear and pierced Cain's throat after she survived the Creation Power attack.
• The Rakshasa Imperial Guard vanished as Cain died and the Rakshasa God's Divine Might dissipated, but Cain used her last strength to attack and cried, "Die with me!"

Huo Yuhao killed Cain but was left near death, and the Sea God's Trial revealed that he could be resurrected if its remaining requirements were completed. Xu Tiancheng then overpowered Tang Wutong and Hua Yao, seized Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan, and took them to the Sun Moon Empire, leaving Shrek to plan their rescue.

• Cain's attack crushed Huo Yuhao's heart, but the Sea God's Trial activated and kept his final thread of life intact while revealing resurrection as an added reward.
• Tang Wutong vowed to resurrect Huo Yuhao and attacked the assassins, but Xu Tiancheng appeared in an avatar and blocked her strike.
• Xu Tiancheng overpowered Tang Wutong and Hua Yao, seized Huo Yuhao, and took Zhang Lexuan with him to the Sun Moon Empire.
• News of the attack spread across the continent, and Shrek's gods and core members resolved to kill the Corpse God, reclaim the Sea God Seven Sacred Pillars, and rescue Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan.

God King Tang lost track of Huo Yuhao after the New Fire God took him into the Fire God Secret Realm, so he activated a backup inheritance plan. Huo Yuhao revealed that his death had been an act, then discussed his plans with Xu Tiancheng, including the return of Jin Da Xian and Feng Wudu with new divine powers.

• God King Tang raged over Huo Yuhao's apparent death and disappearance, then decided to activate an inheritance backup he had arranged with Xiao Wu.
• Huo Yuhao woke in the Fire God Secret Realm, where Cain revealed that she had helped him fake his death; Zhang Lexuan was also there, asleep.
• Huo Yuhao sent Cain back into the Soul Banner Space and began discussing three matters with Xu Tiancheng: guiding the Seven Original Sin Gods' successors, investigating the Phoenix Cry Continent, and welcoming Jin Da Xian and Feng Wudu.
• Huo Yuhao learned that Jin Da Xian and Feng Wudu had passed Rong Nianbing's inheritance test, earning Jin Da Xian Quasi-God strength and Feng Wudu the Emotion God inheritance.
• Feng Wudu prepared to replenish his divine power and become a Level One God, while Rong Nianbing left the God Realm with his wives after passing on his godhood.

Huo Yuhao arrived on the Phoenix Cry Continent, checked on the Seven Original Sin Gods’ trials, and reunited with the seven inheritors. After Feng Wudu and Jin Da Xian captured the injured Five-Colored Primordial Phoenix, Huo Yuhao began preparing her in the divine kingdom.

• Huo Yuhao left Xu Tiancheng to handle matters on the Douluo Continent and traveled to the Phoenix Cry Continent.
• Huo Yuhao found Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong, Feng Ling, Tang Ya, Ning Tian, Zhu Lu, and Wei Na undergoing the difficult, interdependent Original Sin God trials.

• Feng Wudu replenished his divine power and Jin Da Xian went to break through to god level, while Huo Yuhao began preparing the phoenix.

Huo Yuhao read the Five-Colored Primordial Phoenix’s memories and learned how she survived the Dragon God’s hunt. She agreed to submit to him and revealed that her name was Xuan’er, then approached him after he demanded that she aid his cultivation.

• Huo Yuhao suppressed the Five-Colored Primordial Phoenix and explored her memories, learning that she and the Golden-Winged Primordial Phoenix were split from the Phoenix God to escape the Dragon God.
• The Golden-Winged Primordial Phoenix sacrificed himself to help her flee to the Phoenix Cry Continent, where she hid and recovered while the phoenix race dwindled.
• The Five-Colored Primordial Phoenix noticed Huo Yuhao in her memories and offered to serve him, explaining that she wanted to reclaim the Phoenix God’s Godhood and help him transcend.
• Huo Yuhao demanded that she open her spiritual origin so he could brand her soul, and she agreed, even offering to let him brand her Godhood Core and divine throne.
• Huo Yuhao asked her to aid his cultivation, and she introduced herself as Xuan’er and approached him after revealing the Phoenix Yin-Yang Endowment method.
