• Ling Xiao began to reveal what he had offered for the fruit, then stopped himself and taunted Xiao Fan, who demanded to hear the terms.

Xiao Fan traded for a mysterious tablet and a Blank Transportation Paper after learning that Crush Your Bird’s little sister had found rare treasures and rewards. He then gave Zhou He a Skill Chain and team-training materials to prepare new players, and, with the event nearly over, began preparing to create his own Profession.

• With two days left in the event, Xiao Fan returned to Dragon City, shut out distractions, and prepared to create his own Profession.

Xiao Fan used a God Demon Special Evolution Bead to create the God Rank Profession Demon God Mage, then received compensation that let him create a second God Rank Profession, God Demon Priest. He earned rewards for creating both unique Professions and wondered what the special Class Skin reward was.

• Xiao Fan used the God Demon Special Evolution Bead and chose to create a God Rank Profession despite the risk of failure.
• Xiao Fan designed Demon God Mage around spell damage, burst damage, Intelligence, and a staff, then successfully passed the system review.
• Xiao Fan received the option to create a second Profession as compensation and successfully created God Demon Priest.
• Xiao Fan learned that God Rank Professions were unique and could not be made available to cities.
• Xiao Fan received rewards for creating both God Rank Professions and questioned what his Class Skin reward was.

Xiao Fan created the unique God Rank classes Demon God Mage and God Demon Priest, then changed into both. He told Jian Qingfeng that he could help him create a God Rank class if he found an Evolution Bead, and ended the chapter staring in shock at his class evolution screen.

• Xiao Fan accepted the rewards for creating the God Rank classes and chose to announce them under his Jiu Chen identity.
• After Ling Feiyun asked about the new classes, Xiao Fan said no one from Lingyun Ambition would change to his classes because Ling Xiao had insulted him.
• Xiao Fan told Jian Qingfeng that God Rank classes were unique and could not be offered in the cities, but offered to help him create one if he obtained an Evolution Bead.
• Xiao Fan changed to Demon God Mage and God Demon Priest, then opened the class evolution screen to complete his Resurrection Art.
• Xiao Fan saw the class evolution screen and was shocked.

Xiao Fan evolved both God Rank Professions and began creating Resurrection Art, but his first two attempts failed. With eight chances remaining, he realized he needed to change the skill itself rather than keep adjusting its data.

• Xiao Fan discovered that each evolution of his God Rank Professions required 5,000 Evolution Fragments, then spent 20,000 Core Power to evolve both once.
• Xiao Fan opened the Resurrection Art creation interface and learned he had ten attempts and seven hours to create the skill without the system adjusting its data.
• Xiao Fan designed a direct resurrection skill with a 20,000 Mana cost, 10 percent HP after resurrection, and a 30-minute cooldown, but the system rejected it.
• Xiao Fan raised the Mana cost to 30,000, lowered post-resurrection HP to 0.1 percent, and set a one-hour cooldown, but the system rejected his second attempt.
• Xiao Fan concluded he needed to change the Resurrection skill itself rather than keep adjusting its data.

Xiao Fan repeatedly failed to create Resurrection Art and, with the deadline nearly over, nearly gave up. Shen Long’s announcement that he had created a T1 Rank Profession jolted Xiao Fan back to his resolve, and he rushed to submit one final skill.

• Xiao Fan failed his fifth attempt after trying to base Resurrection Art on Sands of Time and suspected the skill had to incorporate all four quest items.
• Xiao Fan’s sixth through ninth attempts failed despite combining the items’ themes and pushing the skill’s data to its limits.
• With only minutes left, Xiao Fan felt defeated and began to lose hope of creating Resurrection Art.
• The system announced that Shen Long had created the T1 Rank Profession Soul Hook User, and Xiao Fan regained his determination.
• Xiao Fan quickly filled in a resurrection skill and submitted his final attempt.

Shen Long’s T1 Rank Profession stirred interest in the City of Kings, while Ling Feiyun decided to move his guild there after Jiu Chen barred its members from his Profession. Xiao Fan unexpectedly succeeded in creating a Resurrection Art and eagerly opened its details.

• Shen Long’s T1 Rank Profession revived players’ interest in joining the City of Kings after its destruction had been blamed on a Magic Beast siege.
• Ling Feiyun blamed Ling Xiao for provoking Jiu Chen and costing their guild members and rank, while Ling Xiao and the vice leader urged him to join the City of Kings.
• Ling Feiyun agreed to take the guild to the City of Kings after the next day’s event ended.
• Xiao Fan dismissed the Resurrection Art as useless, then received a message that he had successfully created the skill.
• Xiao Fan celebrated becoming the game’s only player with a Resurrection Art and chose to view it.

Xiao Fan created Resurrection Art and revealed that Jiu Chen was likely the long-sought player with both a God Rank Skill and a God-King Rank Skill. The announcement shook players’ plans, while Shen Long vowed to deal with Jiu Chen after rebuilding the City of Kings.

• Xiao Fan speculated that Resurrection Art succeeded because he was strong enough, and he chose not to hide his ID when the system offered a region-wide announcement.
• The announcement named Jiu Chen as the creator of Resurrection Art, prompting players across Cloud Sea to celebrate, envy him, and question his identity.
• Yue Qianjun connected Jiu Chen’s new skill to the Resurrection clue once owned by Zhou He, leading players to suspect Jiu Chen was the player who created the God Rank Skill and God-King Rank Skill.
• Zhou He and Jian Qingfeng were shocked by the theory, while many players reconsidered joining the City of Kings because Xiao Fan seemed to have greater potential and closer ties to the authorities.
• Ling Feiyun beat Ling Xiao again over offending Jiu Chen, while Shen Long blamed himself for not killing Jiu Chen earlier and Quan Zhong said the Jun Family players could handle him once they emerged.

Xiao Fan created Resurrection Art and earned major rewards, including a qualification for the 2005 Life and Death Contest, which spurred him to train harder. After returning from a successful final day of the event, he used his remaining skill-creation attempts and created a God-Tier skill before beginning another.

• Xiao Fan created Resurrection Art and received Core Power, Star Stones, Talent Stones, a free materialization, a Ranking Card, and qualification for the 2005 Life and Death Contest.
• Xiao Fan saw the contest qualification in the Battle interface and resolved to level up quickly because he feared players from other planets would compete.
• Jian Qingfeng told Xiao Fan that the Earth-Tier Skill Chains had passed testing and would give new players at least four Earth-Tier skills.
• Xiao Fan and the others cleared three secret realms, where he used Flower Grafting to transfer a teammate's remaining health to a level 90 BOSS and defeat it.
• Xiao Fan left the group, used a skill-creation attempt to make the God-Rank Grasp of Fate, and began creating a control skill that could make other players fight for him.

Xiao Fan created a God Rank skill that let him control a target as a puppet, then spent the rest of the celebration event creating more skills and Professions. The event ended with Xiao Fan exhausted and uneasy about his qualification for the Life and Death Contest.

• Xiao Fan successfully created the God Rank Puppetry skill and considered how he could use it against powerful BOSSes.
• Players reacted to Xiao Fan's skill announcements, while Star Like Rain vowed to take revenge on him over the destruction of City of Kings.
• Xiao Fan failed twice to create investment-based skills, then successfully created his remaining four skills, bringing his total to seven God Rank skills.
• Xiao Fan created fourteen T1 Rank Professions and two T0 Rank Professions, prompting many players to reconsider going to King Base.
• The celebration event ended, and Xiao Fan went to sleep after reflecting on his gains and worrying about the Life and Death Contest.

Xiao Fan and Jian Qingfeng led thirty powerful players into the Monster Region to find the Seven-Colored Deer, hoping to obtain an Upgrade Token for Dragon City. After five days of searching Flower Roost Dock without success, Xiao Fan sensed danger and warned the team to move.

• Xiao Fan joined Jian Qingfeng's team and explained that the Seven-Colored Deer was a neutral Magic Beast rumored to appear in Flower Valley.
• Xiao Fan and the team entered the Monster Region, activated their abilities, and headed for Flower Roost Dock.
• The team searched the vast valley carefully but found no sign of the deer and retreated to camp outside the Monster Region at night.
• Xiao Fan and the others continued their search for five days, struggling to find the roaming Magic Beast among the flowers.
• Xiao Fan sensed danger and shouted for everyone to get out of the way.

Xiao Fan and his team searched Flower Valley for the Seven-Colored Deer after a mysterious player ambushed them. They found the enormous Neutral Magic Beast and Xiao Fan offered to help it, leaving the deer impressed by their politeness.

• A player shot an arrow at Xiao Fan's team and fled, and Xiao Fan suspected the attacker came from the City of Kings.
• Xiao Fan and the others decided to keep searching for the Seven-Colored Deer before pursuing the attackers.
• The team followed a series of deer calls into the misty woods of Flower Valley and waited cautiously for the creature to appear.
• The Seven-Colored Deer emerged as a towering, dark-furred beast with scarlet eyes, huge antlers, bells, and flowers.
• The Seven-Colored Deer revealed it could see the hidden players, and Xiao Fan stepped forward to offer its help.

Xiao Fan received two quests from the Seven-Colored Deer and collected the flowers for one while investigating the other. At the waterfall, he discovered that the supposed wretched fish was a Neutral Magic Beast called Fairy Fish, and an arrow suddenly flew toward her.

• The Seven-Colored Deer offered Xiao Fan a flower-gathering quest and a quest to kill a fish beneath the southeastern waterfall.
• Xiao Fan and his companions collected all seven flowers, then went to inspect the waterfall and found the beautiful Fairy Fish.
• Xiao Fan identified the Fairy Fish as a Neutral Magic Beast and approached her alone to see whether she would offer a quest.
• An arrow suddenly shot past Xiao Fan toward the Fairy Fish.

Xiao Fan discovered that the Fairy Fish was a level 300 Magic Beast and used his new God-Tier skill to escape her attacks. He fled toward the Seven-Colored Deer, hoping to make the two enemies fight, but the Fairy Fish quickly caught up with him.

• The Fairy Fish destroyed Xiao Fan's arrow and turned hostile after seeing his disgusted expression.
• Xiao Fan warned Jian Qingfeng and the others that the Fairy Fish was level 300, and Jian Qingfeng reluctantly led the team away.
• Xiao Fan used Injury Devouring All Things to redirect the Fairy Fish's water arrows into the bluestone beneath her.
• Xiao Fan fled with his speed skills and Armor Transformation, then decided to lead the Fairy Fish to the Seven-Colored Deer.
• The Fairy Fish caught up with Xiao Fan, leaving him despairing.

After escaping Jian Qingfeng’s group, Xiao Fan was trapped by the level-300 Fairy Fish and nearly killed. Zijin revealed that a Dragon Token in Xiao Fan’s Space Ring gave him the Divine Dragon’s aura, which stopped the Fairy Fish from attacking and left him wondering whether the wooden token “Crush Your Bird” had given him was the source.

• Jian Qingfeng swore to avenge Jiu Chen and led his group to hunt the player who had ambushed them.
• Xiao Fan tried to log out while fleeing Fairy Fish, but the game blocked him and the beast struck him with a water attack.
• Xiao Fan tried to survive by praising Fairy Fish’s beauty, but it ignored his flattery and transformed to attack him.
• Fairy Fish sensed the Divine Dragon’s aura on Xiao Fan and stopped attacking, while Xiao Fan wondered how he had acquired it.
• Zijin woke through their mental bond and explained that the Dragon Token in Xiao Fan’s Space Ring could suppress water-type Magic Beasts.
• Xiao Fan suspected that the mysterious wooden token from “Crush Your Bird” was the Dragon Token and asked Zijin what it did.

Xiao Fan learned that his Dragon Token contained the Divine Dragon's inheritance, but Zijin said he was too weak to accept it. After earning a new task from the Fairy Fish and receiving two City Direct Upgrade Tokens from the Seven-Colored Deer, he worried when Jian Qingfeng did not reply to his message.

• Zijin explained that the Dragon Token held a Divine Dragon inheritance, but warned Xiao Fan that he was too weak to receive it safely.
• The Fairy Fish let Xiao Fan go after sensing the Divine Dragon's aura, then offered him a Sea-Avoiding Pearl if he could find Heavenly Lightning to complete its transformation.
• Xiao Fan promised to ask his lightning-type friend about Heavenly Lightning and left to find the Seven-Colored Deer.
• Xiao Fan gave the Seven-Colored Deer seven flowers, and it rewarded him with two City Direct Upgrade Tokens.
• Xiao Fan noticed that Jian Qingfeng had not replied to his message and wondered whether something had happened.
