Chapter Summaries

Ye Xuan arrived in Slaughter City after Tang San and Tang Chen had been injured, but an agreement between the Asura God and the Goddess of Life stopped him from fighting Tang San.

• After Tang Chen and Tang San objected to losing the wisp, the Little Holy King told Ye Xuan that Tang Chen would become his puppet if he absorbed it, so Ye Xuan agreed to give it to them with a warning.

Ye Xuan left Slaughter City after helping awaken the Evil Eye Holy King's energy within Dai Mubai, allowing Tang Chen to absorb it and reach the peak of the demigod realm.

After three years of cultivation, Hu Liena began the Sea God’s Ninth Trial with Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing supporting her. The trial required her to severely injure the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and the three women confronted the beast in its sea domain.

• Bai Chenxiang watched Ye Xuan cultivate and reflected on her complicated fear and closeness to him.
• The Sea God altered Hu Liena’s final trial so she had to severely injure the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing assisted and protected her.

• The next day, Hu Liena summoned the power of the Sea God in the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King’s territory.
• The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King burst from the ocean, towering over the sea and terrifying the surrounding sea beasts.

Hu Liena, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing defeated and crippled the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, fulfilling the Sea God's Ninth Trial requirement without killing it. Hu Liena then used the Sea God's Twilight to suppress the whale's remaining life essence and end the nearly three-day battle.
