• Jin Feng repeatedly struck the dark shields, believing he could exhaust their energy, while Qin Yan’s defense remained intact.

Qin Yan summoned the Five Elements Wonder Tree and unleashed its Five Elements Heaven-Sealing Seal against Jin Feng's Golden Radiance Golden Body. The seal trapped the Golden Body and imposed powerful debuffs, while the Darkness Altar's black flame continued to change.

• Qin Yan sent the seal down onto Jin Feng's Golden Radiance Golden Body, trapping it beneath five pillars of light.
• The seal weakened Jin Feng's spear, slowed his blood and qi, sealed his regeneration, obstructed his true qi, narrowed his perception, and weighed down his movements.

Jin Feng struggled against Qin Yan’s Five Elements Heaven-Sealing Seal and the Five Elements Wonder Tree, realizing that his Golden Body was being worn down and he might die. As Qin Yan refused his plea for mercy, the Black Flame rose from the Darkness Altar and began gathering Darkness Force.

• The Five Elements Wonder Tree formed a Five-Colored Spirit Spear and blasted Jin Feng’s weakened Golden Body into a crater.
• Jin Feng realized the seal and repeated attacks were rapidly draining his true qi and Golden Body, so he charged the sealing pillars in an attempt to escape.

• Jin Feng pleaded with Qin Yan to let him go, but Qin Yan refused and reminded him of his earlier threat.

• Jiang Li came out of her daze when Qin Yan told her they should leave, and she agreed.

After Qin Yan left Extinction Canyon with Jiang Li, witnesses reported his victory over Jin Feng, spreading news of his strength across the Mystic Realm. Qin Yan and Jiang Li continued toward the Core Zone, where they encountered fewer but far more powerful Martial Artists.

• Jiang Li flew ahead toward the Outer Zone, and Qin Yan followed as the Martial Artists who had coveted his Spear Dao Essence trembled at his indifferent glance and decided to leave the Ruined Battlefield.
• An Ancient Trace Kingdom soldier sent word that Qin Yan had killed Seventh-Rank Grandmaster Jin Feng and described Jiang Li as a powerful companion.
• The Ancient Trace Kingdom activated its intelligence network to investigate Qin Yan, while other factions spread news of his victory throughout the Mystic Realm.
• Qin Yan and Jiang Li walked toward the Core Zone, rested at an abandoned camp, and reflected on their recent battle and condition.
• The pair encountered fewer Martial Artists near the Core Zone, but each one they saw possessed at least Grandmaster-level strength, so they grew more cautious.

Qin Yan and Jiang Li reached the Ruined Battlefield’s Core Zone, where the lingering powers of two fallen Venerables continued to clash. Qin Yan began sensing the Annihilation Aura as his Annihilation Spear Intent emerged.

• Li Qing sensed a powerful hidden Peak Grandmaster protecting Qin Yan and Jiang Li, and warned Wang Mang and their companion not to provoke them.
• Li Qing led his two friends toward the Core Zone to try again for Venerable Purple Thunder’s inheritance.
• Qin Yan and Jiang Li arrived at the Core Zone and saw the Purple Thunder Sea clashing with the black Annihilation mist left by two fallen Venerables.
• Qin Yan sat down, reached out to the surrounding Annihilation Aura with his spiritual power, and released his Annihilation Spear Intent.

Qin Yan found that the Annihilation Aura at the Core Zone’s edge was too weak to condense Supreme Spear Intent, so he went deeper while Jiang Li stayed behind. A Grandmaster-level Vengeful Spirit attacked Jiang Li, but her hidden protector, Jin Gang, destroyed it with Diamond Fist.

• Qin Yan drew in Annihilation Aura with his Spear Intent of Annihilation but found the concentration insufficient to condense Supreme Spear Intent.
• Qin Yan told Jiang Li to wait at the edge of the Core Zone and walked deeper into the mist.
• Jiang Li sat down to cultivate while a Vengeful Spirit of the Early-Stage Grandmaster level emerged and attacked her.
• A golden barrier repelled the Vengeful Spirit’s strike and blasted it away from Jiang Li.
• Jin Gang used Diamond Fist to crush the Vengeful Spirit, and Jiang Li thanked him for protecting her.

Jiang Li continued cultivating after the golden barrier around her disappeared, while Qin Yan entered the Core Zone and found that Grandmaster Level Vengeful Spirits avoided him when he carried the Aura of Annihilation. After testing his suspicion, Qin Yan confirmed that the aura kept them from attacking, giving him a way to avoid one of the Core Zone’s greatest dangers.

• After bidding Jiang Li farewell, Qin Yan traveled deeper into the Core Zone, where Annihilation Black Mist and Purple Thunder battered him.
• Qin Yan encountered a Grandmaster Level Vengeful Spirit, but it turned away without attacking him.
• Qin Yan met several more powerful Vengeful Spirits, and each one left after noticing him.
• Qin Yan withdrew the Aura of Annihilation and Spear Intent around himself, then continued onward to test whether they were keeping the Vengeful Spirits away.
• When another Grandmaster Level Vengeful Spirit charged, Qin Yan drew the Aura of Annihilation around himself, and the spirit turned away; Qin Yan confirmed the aura prevented their attacks.

Qin Yan traveled deep into the Core Zone, where he found liquefied Annihilation Aura and met the final conditions to condense the Great Annihilation Spear Intent. He prepared to begin his breakthrough with Little Black and a hidden Holy Land expert guarding him.

• Qin Yan used the Aura of Annihilation to pass through the Core Zone without fighting its Vengeful Spirits.
• Qin Yan pushed deeper through increasingly dense Annihilation Aura until he could no longer continue, then found black raindrops of liquefied Annihilation Force.
• Qin Yan realized the liquid energy supplied the last environmental requirement for condensing the Great Annihilation Spear Intent, after fulfilling its Spear Intent and physical prerequisites.
• Qin Yan confirmed the area was clear and ordered Little Black to guard him with its Darkness Clone while he broke through.
• Qin Yan gave Little Black five Spirit Runes and relied on the hidden Holy Land expert and his reputation to reduce the risk of interference.

Qin Yan began condensing the Great Annihilation Spear Intent by releasing his Annihilation Aura and bringing his Spear Intents together. The Aura balanced the first three, but the arrival of his fourth Spear Intent disrupted them, forcing Qin Yan to control their power with his spiritual strength.

• Qin Yan released his blood qi and First-Rank Spear Intent of Annihilation, drawing Annihilation Aura across a hundred zhang.
• Qin Yan brought out his Fourth Grade Annihilation End Spear Intent, and the Aura balanced it against the Spear Intent of Annihilation.
• Qin Yan added his Third Grade Quiet Extinction Spear Intent, and the Aura helped the three Spear Intents reach a fragile balance.
• Qin Yan released his Second Grade Extinction Spear Intent, throwing all four into turmoil beyond the Aura's ability to regulate.
• Qin Yan used his 499.5-hertz spiritual power to sense and control the fluctuations of all four Spear Intents.

Qin Yan fused his four Spear Intents with the help of concentrated Annihilation Force, creating a growing sphere of power. Meanwhile, Top Grade Martial Artists confronted the Purple Thunder in the deepest part of the Core Zone, where three enormous Golden Bodies stood out among the challengers.

• Qin Yan simultaneously controlled his four Spear Intents and drew them together for a dangerous fusion.
• Qin Yan used the Spear Intent of Annihilation to draw in liquid-grade Annihilation Aura, which stabilized the merging Spear Intents.
• The four Spear Intents formed a black sphere above Qin Yan that pulsed and grew stronger as something developed within it.
• In the deepest part of the Core Zone, purple lightning rained down on Top Grade Martial Artists as they unleashed their Golden Bodies.
• Three Golden Bodies, each several hundred meters tall, towered over the other Martial Artists' Golden Bodies.

The Martial Artists in the Thunder Sea watched the powerful Golden Bodies and discussed the rival claims of Ancient Trace Kingdom’s Eldest Prince Jun Wentian and Third Princess Jun Qingyu to the throne. With the king preparing to abdicate, the kingdom’s powerful families weighed which heir to support.

• The chapter explained how Golden Body height reflected a Grandmaster’s strength and described the rarity and benefits of reaching ninety-nine zhang.
• The Martial Artists saw a lightning-wreathed Golden Body standing six hundred and ninety zhang tall, belonging to Eldest Prince Jun Wentian, who had reached Peak-Stage Grandmaster.
• The gathered experts debated whether Jun Wentian’s Martial Dao strength or Jun Qingyu’s mental strength, Light Power, and Temple of Light backing made a stronger claim to the throne.
• The chapter revealed that the king planned to abdicate and that the families’ choices of heir could bring them power, titles, fiefs, and resources.

Martial artists struggled to cross Venerable Purple Thunder’s Thunder Sea in pursuit of his inheritance, which only accepted inheritors below the Venerable level. Jun Wentian and two other Great Grandmasters were the last to remain inside as they advanced toward the depths; beyond the sea, Venerable Annihilation’s inheritance site lay shrouded in black fog.

• Martial artists entered Venerable Purple Thunder’s Thunder Sea and endured its increasingly powerful purple lightning as they sought the inheritance sigil.
• The chapter explained that Venerables had reached the sigil before but were rejected because the inheritance only recognized candidates below the Venerable level.
• Purple lightning blasted every Grandmaster out of the sea, leaving only Jun Wentian and two other Great Grandmasters struggling onward.
• Jun Wentian’s 690-zhang golden Golden Body, an azure Golden Body, and a crimson Golden Body advanced deeper into the Thunder Sea, slowing as the lightning grew stronger.
• The view shifted to Venerable Annihilation’s inheritance site, where Annihilation Dense Fog and droplets of Annihilation Water filled the area beyond the Thunder Sea.
