Zhang Qingxuan went to the Evil Demon Forest to help a Shadow Demon Leopard overcome its three-hundred-thousand-year tribulation, but he charged into the tribulation clouds and absorbed their power instead. The leopard survived, while the tribulation’s remaining will mourned the loss of its thunderfluid and source.

• Zhang Qingxuan met the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler in the Evil Demon Forest and was presented with a Shadow Demon Leopard nearing the three-hundred-thousand-year cultivation threshold.
• The Shadow Demon Leopard broke through the threshold, and Zhang Qingxuan hid beneath its belly as the Heavenly Tribulation gathered.
• Zhang Qingxuan suddenly charged into the tribulation clouds with his sword and scroll, terrifying the clouds with an aura they recognized.
• After an hour, the tribulation clouds dispersed, the Shadow Demon Leopard had survived, and the remaining tribulation will lamented that Zhang Qingxuan had absorbed everything.

Zhang Qingxuan helped Soul Beasts survive their Heavenly Tribulations by consuming their tribulation origin, forming his Eighth Soul Rings and luring the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler into seeking his help. As the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler’s 800,000-year tribulation began, Zhang Qingxuan and two hidden allies struck the clouds and started devouring their origin.

• Zhang Qingxuan absorbed Heavenly Tribulation Origin for the Shadow Demon Leopard, which gave him a dark-gold Soul Bone in gratitude.
• Over the next few days, Zhang Qingxuan helped several Soul Beasts through their tribulations, and his Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and Green Leaf Sword formed their Eighth Soul Rings.

• Zhang Qingxuan hid beneath the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler while the Heavenly Tribulation searched for him, and the clouds finally appeared after three days.
• As a blood-red bolt struck toward the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, Zhang Qingxuan’s purple-gold lightning shot into the clouds, where he and two hidden allies began consuming the Heavenly Tribulation Origin.

Zhang Qingxuan completed his ninth Soul Rings by absorbing Heavenly Tribulation Origin, then discussed his plans with Douluo Consciousness, which warned him not to attract the God Realm’s attention. Back in the Evil Demon Forest, he asked the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler to find Innate Divine Gold and hinted that worthy Soul Beasts might receive help avoiding tribulations.

• Zhang Qingxuan absorbed the remaining Heavenly Tribulation Origin, formed the Ninth Soul Rings for both martial souls, and vanished as the tribulation clouds dispersed.

• Zhang Qingxuan told Douluo Consciousness he still needed pure Innate Divine Gold and explained why he had avoided taking the Angel God’s sword.
• Zhang Qingxuan reappeared above the Evil Demon Forest and asked the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler to find Innate Divine Gold.
• Zhang Qingxuan told the Soul Beasts he could no longer absorb their tribulations, but offered to seek exceptions for outstanding beasts with good character.

Zhang Qingxuan checked in at the Evil Demon Forest and Jingyang Mountain Range, searched the Evil Emperor’s treasury for Innate Divine Gold, and left with a silver wolf pup. When he returned to his quarters, he found an unfamiliar girl there alongside Lu Xueqi and Shui Wan'ning.

• Zhang Qingxuan received a Plane Travel Card after checking in at the Evil Demon Forest and learned that Jingyang Mountain Range was his next check-in location.
• Zhang Qingxuan searched the Evil Emperor’s treasury for Innate Divine Gold but found none, so he took several dark immortal herbs instead.
• Zhang Qingxuan visited Jingyang Mountain Range, completed his check-in with the Silver Radiant Primordial Wolf’s help, and left with a gifted young wolf.
• The Silver Radiant Primordial Wolf explained that he trusted Zhang Qingxuan because Zhang Qingxuan carried the auras of many Soul Beasts.
• Zhang Qingxuan returned to his quarters with the silver wolf pup and found an unfamiliar girl there with Lu Xueqi and Shui Wan'ning.

Zhang Qingxuan learned that Xu Yan possessed the Purple Radiant Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon martial soul but left her place among the group uncertain. He ordered everyone to move to a blessed mountain and, still searching for Innate Divine Gold, decided to gamble on traveling to other planes.

• Lu Xueqi and Shui Wan'ning introduced Xu Yan's exceptional talent and dragon martial soul to Zhang Qingxuan.
• Xu Yan revealed her Purple Radiant Heaven-Extinguishing Dragon martial soul, and Zhang Qingxuan recognized the legendary beast but offered only brief approval.
• Zhang Qingxuan ordered the group to pack and move to a mountain where heaven and earth energy converged.
• Shui Wan'ning reassured Xu Yan that Zhang Qingxuan's distant manner did not mean he disliked her.
• Zhang Qingxuan considered using the Plane Travel Card if he could not find Innate Divine Gold on the Sun Moon Continent, then fed Little Silver a pill and put it to sleep.
• Zhang Qingxuan vanished as the space around him rippled.

Xu Yan dreamed of her brother Xu Han abandoning her after drugging her, while Zhang Qingxuan watched the dream and learned more about her circumstances. After waking, Xu Yan was comforted by Shui Wan'ning and learned she would travel with them, while Zhang Qingxuan decided not to interfere with Xu Han's chosen path.

• In Xu Yan's dream, Xu Han gave her a drugged pastry and left her behind, and she later cried to him about being abandoned.
• Zhang Qingxuan collapsed the dream world and discussed Xu Yan's exceptional talent and martial soul with the Fire Dragon King and Ice Dragon King.
• Xu Yan woke from the dream and asked Shui Wan'ning whether her brother had abandoned her because she had been disobedient.
• Shui Wan'ning comforted Xu Yan and told her that she would travel with them and leave her unsettled life behind.
• Lu Xueqi suggested bringing Xu Han with them, but Zhang Qingxuan said Xu Han had chosen his own path and they should not interfere.

Half a month after Xu Yan began training at Bright Moon Temple, Zhang Qingxuan arranged for Lu Xueqi to become her master and take her to hunt Soul Rings. He then discussed the Dragon God's Godhood and his own law cultivation with the Dragon Kings, leaving them stunned by his ninety-percent comprehension of ice and fire laws.

• Xu Yan trained at Bright Moon Temple, and Lu Xueqi assessed her supreme true dragon martial soul and the danger of its Destruction power.
• Zhang Qingxuan asked Lu Xueqi to take Xu Yan as her disciple and test her teaching ability.
• The next morning, Lu Xueqi took Xu Yan to the Evil Demon Forest to hunt her first and second Soul Rings.
• Zhang Qingxuan asked the Ice Dragon King whether Xu Yan could inherit the Dragon God's Godhood, and the Dragon Kings explained that it required the Dragon God's bloodline to reappear.
• The Fire Dragon King said Zhang Qingxuan could claim the Dragon God's Godhood if his own dragon bloodline surpassed the Dragon God's, but Zhang Qingxuan dismissed the need for a Godhood.
• The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings asked about Zhang Qingxuan's understanding of their laws, and he claimed to have reached ninety percent comprehension, leaving them shocked.

Lu Xueqi used the Purple Origin Crystal to get a Soul Beast's help, allowing Xu Yan to gain two Soul Rings before beginning a careful cultivation regimen. A year later, Bright Moon Mountain's Gold Mountain drew factions and marriage envoys, while Lu Xueqi reached Unity of Heaven and Man and asked Zhang Qingxuan if he planned to leave.

• The Evil Emperor recognized Lu Xueqi's Purple Origin Crystal and sent a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast to help her find Soul Beasts for Xu Yan.
• Xu Yan absorbed two Soul Rings from Amethyst-Winged Dragons, reached level twenty-three, and received Lu Xueqi's ten-year cultivation plan.
• Over the following year, Soul Beasts gathered rare ores outside Bright Moon Temple to create the Gold Mountain, drawing factions and envoys seeking control of it or marriage alliances.
• Xu Yan complained to Shui Wan'ning about the stream of envoys and learned that factions were also pursuing Lu Xueqi through marriage proposals.
• Lu Xueqi achieved Unity of Heaven and Man with Zhang Qingxuan's guidance, then asked whether he was preparing to leave.

Zhang Qingxuan left to search other planes for Innate Divine Gold, promising to return in nine years, while Lu Xueqi and Douluo Consciousness watched him go. Two days later, Zhang Qingyang sent four disciples down the mountain for training, with Li Qingfeng getting launched through the gate after demanding more talismans.

• Lu Xueqi gave Zhang Qingxuan a jade Soul Tool pendant and asked when he would return; he told her he would be gone for nine years and had to travel alone.
• Zhang Qingxuan asked Douluo Consciousness to look after his disciples while he searched other planes for Innate Divine Gold, then departed using the Plane Travel Card.
• A mysterious golden-and-silver halo appeared before Douluo Consciousness, ordered it not to overprotect Zhang Qingxuan's disciples, and followed Zhang Qingxuan.
• At the Celestial Master Mansion, Zhang Qingyang gave Xu Lanxing, Ye Qinghuan, Bai Ziyao, and Li Qingfeng one Golden Light Talisman each before their training journey.
• Li Qingfeng complained that he wanted hundreds or thousands of talismans, so Zhang Qingyang punched him flying through the mountain gate; the other three disciples hurried after him.

Xu Lanxing, Ye Qinghuan, Bai Ziyao, and Li Qingfeng left Dragon Tiger Mountain separately to gain experience, while Zhang Qingyang explained why he trusted Li Qingfeng most and worried most about Bai Ziyao. The Silver Dragon King emerged from seclusion at seventy percent strength and decided to enter the human world to build a power and learn from humans, leaving Gu Qiu'er to explain human books to the bewildered Ferocious Beasts.

• Xu Lanxing, Ye Qinghuan, Bai Ziyao, and Li Qingfeng agreed to travel separately, and Bai Ziyao hurried off to help people.
• Zhang Qingyang told Yun Lingyue that Li Qingfeng was the one he trusted most because he was clearheaded, while Bai Ziyao worried him because his heart had never been on Dragon Tiger Mountain.
• The Silver Dragon King emerged from seclusion and told Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts that she had recovered only seventy percent of her peak strength.
• The Silver Dragon King rejected Di Tian's suggestion to attack humanity and announced that she would enter the human world to establish a power and learn from humans.
• The Silver Dragon King ordered Gu Qiu'er to explain the human books she had read, and Gu Qiu'er froze under the Ferocious Beasts' expectant stares.

Gu Qiu'er taught the Star Dou Ferocious Beasts the art of war, but Xiong Jun and Scarlet King privately admitted they did not understand. The Silver Dragon King dragged Xiong Jun away for physical instruction, leaving the other beasts suddenly eager to learn.

• Gu Qiu'er lectured the ferocious beasts about military strategy and preserving strength when retreat was necessary.
• Xiong Jun and Scarlet King whispered about not understanding the lesson, while Di Tian rebuked them for speculating about his wisdom.
• Bi Ji warned Zi Ji that the Silver Dragon King had appeared behind Xiong Jun and Scarlet King.
• Xiong Jun loudly celebrated that others also seemed not to understand, and the Silver Dragon King seized him for special instruction.
• Scarlet King pretended to listen attentively and escaped punishment as the Silver Dragon King dragged Xiong Jun away.
• The Silver Dragon King beat strategy lessons into Xiong Jun, and the remaining beasts sat up eagerly to ask questions.

Gu Qiu'er explained why the Silver Dragon King planned to enter the human world and seek allies, naming Dragon Tiger Mountain and Zhang Qingxuan as the best first choice. Zhang Qingxuan arrived in a new world with Victini and the Dragon Kings, where the Ice Dragon King sensed that its laws concealed an enormous secret.

• Gu Qiu'er outlined four reasons for the Silver Dragon King's plan: learn from humanity, avoid provoking the God Realm, recruit potential allies, and secretly build influence.
• The Silver Dragon King endorsed Gu Qiu'er's analysis, and Di Tian reluctantly accepted that the Soul Beasts needed allies.
• The Silver Dragon King named Dragon Tiger Mountain and Zhang Qingxuan as suitable allies because of their attitudes toward Soul Beasts, the God Realm, and the path to godhood.
• Zhang Qingxuan arrived in an unfamiliar forest, where Victini and the Fire Dragon King emerged from his Dragon Soul Jade Pendant.
• The Ice Dragon King sensed that the new world's laws were far stronger than the Douluo world's and warned that the world likely hid an enormous secret.

After learning that the Throne of Seal World's gods were consumed by its laws, Zhang Qingxuan realized the world's divine system was a trap. While he wondered where Xiao V had gone, the curious spirit sneaked into a birth room and witnessed the birth of a child with powerful human and demon bloodlines.

• Zhang Qingxuan and the Fire Dragon King confirmed that the world's laws were unusually dense and seemed alive, then the dragons returned to the Dragon Soul Jade Pendant.
• After six months in the City of Radiance, Zhang Qingxuan identified the world as the Throne of Seal World and explained that its laws assimilated gods and consumed them as nourishment.
• Zhang Qingxuan and the dragons searched for Xiao V but assumed it was safe and enjoying its freedom.
• Xiao V sneaked into a Priest Temple birth room and watched as Lingxuan struggled to give birth.
• A burst of demonic energy revealed that Lingxuan's newborn was half human and half demon, and the Priest Temple elders declared the child a threat.

After Xiao V rescued Bai Lingxuan’s newborn daughter from a mob and calmed the conflicting forces inside her, it flew away with the infant to find someone who could treat her.

• Bai Lingxuan tried to protect her newborn daughter as the gathered experts attacked, but the infant rose into the air behind an unseen barrier.
• Xiao V appeared, used Victory Energy to settle the forces inside the infant, and fought off the experts who tried to capture it.
• Xiao V defeated the old woman with a powerful slap after she lunged for its wings.
• Bai Lingxuan proved the infant recognized her as her mother, but Xiao V carried the child into the sky to seek treatment for her tangled powers.

Zhang Qingxuan explained that a metal-element Elemental Spirit could lead him to Innate Divine Gold, but Xiao V returned with a newborn human-demon hybrid and an unconscious woman. As Zhang Qingxuan took them in, he reminded the Dragon Kings that their loyalty now belonged to him, not the Soul Beast clan.

• Zhang Qingxuan said he planned to obtain Innate Divine Gold by finding and handling a metal-element Elemental Spirit.
• Xiao V returned with a newborn infant, and Zhang Qingxuan used True Qi to calm the conflict between her human and powerful demon bloodlines.
• Zhang Qingxuan realized Xiao V had taken the infant to protect her from persecution if her identity became known.
• A woman collapsed outside the hall, and Zhang Qingxuan used Inversion True Qi to carry her to a couch.
• Zhang Qingxuan told the Fire Dragon King that the Snow Empress mattered more to him than the Silver Dragon King and reminded the Dragon Kings that they were his dragons now.

Bai Lingxuan woke and was reunited with her newborn daughter, while Zhang Qingxuan planned to seek divine inheritances with the Dragon Kings. The chapter ended as hostile visitors arrived and Zhang Qingxuan went to confront them.

• Bai Lingxuan woke in a pavilion, worried about her child, and Xiao V returned the baby and brought her nourishing soup.
• Bai Lingxuan held and nursed her daughter after drinking the soup.
• Zhang Qingxuan defeated the Ice Dragon King at Go and learned that her and the Fire Dragon King's divine souls had recovered by more than ninety percent.
• Zhang Qingxuan proposed seeking the gods' remaining inheritances and suggested Bai Lingxuan could guide them to the Gold Elemental Spirit.
• Xiao V reported that Bai Lingxuan was nursing her baby, and Zhang Qingxuan and the Dragon Kings sensed a group approaching with hostile intent.
• Zhang Qingxuan headed for the courtyard gate, preparing to fight the visitors.

Zhang Qingxuan defeated Long Xingyu and his companions after they confronted him, then spent two hours slapping Long Xingyu to satisfy a long-held regret. He left Long Xingyu alive but warned that he might return to beat him again.

• Zhang Qingxuan mocked the silver-armored Long Xingyu for his rude manner, and Long Xingyu attacked him.
• Zhang Qingxuan sent Long Xingyu crashing into a wall, slapped a female priest into another wall, and knocked down the rest of the knights and priests.
• Long Xingyu revealed that he was the son of Long Tianyin, and Zhang Qingxuan grew excited at recognizing him.
• Zhang Qingxuan repeatedly slapped Long Xingyu through the air for two hours until he landed face-first in a pit.
• Zhang Qingxuan pulled Long Xingyu from the pit and warned him that he might return to beat him again.

Bai Lingxuan thanked Zhang Qingxuan for saving her newborn daughter, Bai Yue, and learned he was from another world. After he went outside to beat someone he considered a beast, Zhang Qingxuan asked Bai Lingxuan to find him a Gold Elemental Spirit, and she agreed.

• Bai Lingxuan thanked Zhang Qingxuan for saving Bai Yue and confirmed that the child was hers and Feng Xiu's.
• Zhang Qingxuan learned the newborn's name was Bai Yue and angrily went outside to beat a punching bag.

• Zhang Qingxuan told Bai Lingxuan that Bai Yue's illness was only temporarily contained and warned her not to leave with the child.
• Bai Lingxuan returned to the table and agreed to help Zhang Qingxuan find a Gold Elemental Spirit, which he planned to catch himself.

Bai Lingxuan set out with Zhang Qingxuan for the Knight Temple to search for clues about herself, but Long Tianyin stopped them and tried to take her back. Zhang Qingxuan refused, gave Long Tianyin a letter for the master of the Priest Temple, and left with Bai Lingxuan; Long Tianyin then found Sheng Yue wounded in an alley.

• Bai Lingxuan told Zhang Qingxuan she had recovered and led him toward the Knight Temple despite having no specific leads.
• Long Tianyin met Zhang Qingxuan on the road and bowed to apologize for his son Long Xingyu's disrespect.
• Zhang Qingxuan asked whether Long Xingyu was Long Tianyin's biological son, then struck a hidden figure in an alley with sword energy.
• Long Tianyin said the master of the Priest Temple had sent him to bring Bai Lingxuan back, but Zhang Qingxuan refused and handed him a letter to deliver.
• Zhang Qingxuan continued on with Bai Lingxuan, while Long Tianyin went to the alley and discovered Sheng Yue among the rubble.
