As the Witch Clan army surrounded the Heavenly Demon Imperial City, the Seven Luminaries and Eight Desolations Demonic Emperors chose Xuan Que to inherit the Imperial Dao, channeling the royal Power of Fortune into him. Four foreign emperors then arrived, bringing the Doomsday Tribulation upon the Heavenly Demon Clan as Ning Chen prepared to leave the Primeval Demonic Realm.

• The four emperors appeared around the imperial city, cracked the sky above it, and brought the Doomsday Tribulation upon the Heavenly Demon Clan.

The emperors attacked the Heavenly Demon Clan as Seven Luminaries and Eight Desolations tried to guide the royal clan’s destiny into Xuan Que, while Xuan Jiuyou shielded the imperial city. The Scaly Emperor betrayed the Stone Emperor, and Xuan Que exploded before he could become the clan’s new emperor.

• Xuan Mo led the Imperial Guards against Yu Luowu, but the emperor’s strike killed thirty thousand soldiers and left Xuan Mo grievously wounded.

• Xuan Que’s body exploded amid the battle, ending the Heavenly Demon Royal Clan’s attempt to give him the throne.

Ning Chen infiltrated the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Land and used Immortal Trapper to break a seal while searching for the Phoenix Race’s secret arts. The disruption gave Tian Xin and the Lord of the Holy Domain an opening to kill the Eight Desolations Demonic Emperor, leaving the Seven Luminaries Demonic Emperor facing the battle alone.

The Witch Emperor and the Lord of the Holy Domain fought the Seven Luminaries Demonic Emperor while Yu Luowu battled the Scaly Emperor, as the Scaly King faced the Moonlit Tower Master and Xia Ziyi in the Purple Star Starfield. Yin'er joined the struggle against the Scaly King, and the chapter ended as she unleashed the Heavenly Sword infused with the power of heavenly words.

• The Witch Emperor died after striking down the Eight Desolations Demonic Emperor, and Tian Xin remained barely able to fight.
• The Lord of the Holy Domain clashed with the Seven Luminaries Demonic Emperor while Tian Xin prepared to battle again, and Yu Luowu's fight with the Scaly Emperor reached a dangerous impasse.

• A woman in a jade-green dress arrived and struck the Scaly King with lightning, while Consort Luo and Mu Chengxue watched Yin'er enter the battle.
• Yin'er combined heavenly words with her sword art and revealed the Heavenly Sword across the starry sky.

Yin'er, Xia Ziyi, and the Moonlit Tower Master fought the Scale King while the Queen Mother's Hairpin gathered power, but Yin'er's old wounds forced Mu Chengxue to take her place. As Mu Chengxue prepared a final strike, Ning Chen freed the Phoenix Race's fortune in the Primeval Demonic Realm and began bringing it home.

• The Phoenix, Yin'er, Xia Ziyi, and the Moonlit Tower Master joined forces against the Scale King, who unleashed his ancestral scale-dragon form as the great sacrificial formation neared completion.
• Xia Ziyi and the Moonlit Tower Master destroyed the scale dragon, leaving the Scale King badly injured, and Yin'er struck through his chest before her old wounds caused a backlash.
• Mu Chengxue rescued the unconscious Yin'er, took the Vermilion Sword, and joined Xia Ziyi and the Moonlit Tower Master in battle against the Scale King.
• Mu Chengxue wounded the Scale King but could not pierce deeper, so Xia Ziyi and the Moonlit Tower Master resumed their assault while she gathered strength for a fatal strike.
• In the Primeval Demonic Realm, Ning Chen destroyed the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Minor World and broke the seal holding the Phoenix Race's fortune.
• Ning Chen summoned the awakened Phoenix souls to return home, and the Phoenix Race's fortune flowed into his body.

Elsewhere, an old man sent Peacock to meet Ning Chen, while a young man in white arrived to answer his summons.

• Ning Chen returned to the Moon Worshipper Ancient Land and asked the Moon God about the ancient war and the strength of human and demonic Imperial Dao experts.

• After Peacock departed, a young man in white approached the old man and asked whether he had summoned him.

• Peacock arrived at the Moon Worshipper Sacred Land, where Ning Chen recognized her and met her gaze with open hostility.

Peacock, a Divine Realm envoy, arrived at the Moon Worshipper Sacred Land and urged Ning Chen to accept the Divine Realm’s plan to oppose the Primeval Demonic Realm. Ning Chen rejected being ruled by destiny, and an Imperial Dao Supreme Being appeared, introducing himself as a fortune teller who had already divined Ning Chen’s ill-omened fate.

• Peacock descended to the altar and told Ning Chen that she had come on her master’s command to help him resist the Primeval Demonic Realm.
• Peacock said Ning Chen was destined to become Lord of the Divine Realm and explained that the human race had only two Imperial Dao Supreme Beings, both near the end of their lifespans.
• Ning Chen learned Peacock could not arrange a meeting with her master or the other Supreme Being, while Qing Ling, Ruoxi, and Mu Chengxue watched her from afar.
