Shi Feng explained that capturing Starlight Fortress had not given Zero Wing full control of its City Lord's Manor, which required passing an inheritance trial. When the trial entrance appeared, he discovered that the supposedly small fortress had an Asura-level trial.

• The Silver Lion Legion continued clearing Starlight Fortress's monsters and earned experience and equipment while Shi Feng let them fight to save time and reward their help.
• Shi Feng told Water Rose and the others that he planned to take control of the City Lord's Manor rather than clear the remaining guardian Bosses.

• Shi Feng froze when the golden door revealed that Starlight Fortress's inheritance trial was at Asura difficulty.

Shi Feng and his companions entered the Golden Gate inheritance trial at Starlight Fortress, where they had to climb a sacred mountain within two days to claim the fortress’s Bronze Mark. The chapter ended as three Level 110 Tier 3 knights with unlocked Mana Bodies charged at them.

• Water Rose and the others were overwhelmed by the Golden Gate’s divine aura and could not study its inscriptions without exhausting their mental strength.

• Three Level 110 Tier 3 knights charged at Shi Feng and the others, each carrying the power of an unlocked Mana Body.

Shi Feng learned to guide mana from the Golden Gate’s NPC knights, raising his epic Mana Body’s unlocking progress as he climbed the Golden Sacred Mountain. After reaching the first floor, he faced a choice from Erearti: endure three of her moves for inheritance guidance or defeat the original guardian without a reward.

• After more than seven hours, Shi Feng reached the Golden Sacred Mountain’s first floor and met Erearti.
• Erearti offered Shi Feng a choice between enduring three of her moves to earn inheritance guidance or challenging the original guardian without a reward.

Shi Feng chose to challenge Erearti for her inheritance guidance and was forced to face her three swords. After surviving her first two attacks with heavy injuries, he activated Power of Ruin as her final strike descended.

• Erearti offered Shi Feng a choice between challenging her for inheritance guidance or giving up the opportunity, and Shi Feng chose to challenge her.
• Erearti warned that Shi Feng had less than a ten percent chance of surviving three moves, then struck him with the First Sword, Light and Shadow.
• Shi Feng activated Heavenly Dragon's Power and countered with Thunderflash Secret Technique, but Erearti's first sword sent him flying and cost him one-fifth of his HP.
• Erearti followed with the Second Sword, Sacred Devour, and Shi Feng used Blade Liberation and Thunderflash Secret Technique to withstand the stronger attack, leaving his HP below half.
• Erearti launched the Third Sword, Sacred Annihilation, and Shi Feng activated Power of Ruin as he found himself unable to move.

Shi Feng survived Erearti’s final attack and passed her trial, earning inheritance guidance and the Silver Mark of Starlight Fortress. Erearti then asked him to choose what kind of guidance he wanted.

• Shi Feng activated the Ruin Armor’s Power of Ruin to reach Tier 4 and struck Erearti’s attack with Void Sword Light, but the blow sent him crashing to the foot of the Golden Sacred Mountain.
• Shi Feng survived thanks to the Darkwalker Cloak’s Void Shield and returned to ask Erearti whether he had passed.
• Erearti confirmed Shi Feng’s success and awarded him inheritance guidance and the Silver Mark, making him a Silver Lord of Starlight Fortress.
• Erearti asked Shi Feng to choose between guidance on unlocking an Epic Mana Body and guidance on using Mana Combat Techniques.

Shi Feng chose Erearti’s Mana Body guidance over immediate combat power and passed her hidden trial, becoming the Azure Saint’s inheritor. He received the Mana Body and Sacred Extinction inheritances and left Golden Sacred Mountain with both Memory Crystals unused.

• Shi Feng weighed Erearti’s Mana Combat Method against guidance for breaking through the Epic Mana Body’s 100% limit as her countdown ran down.
• Shi Feng chose the Mana Body guidance, prioritizing advancement to higher tiers over immediate combat strength.

• Water Rose told Shi Feng that the Divine Will Tribe wanted to discuss something with them, and Shi Feng said they would meet after improving their Mana Bodies.
• Shi Feng explained that the Inheritance Room could let each person experience a fully unlocked Mana Body for three minutes, then lifted the City Lord's Mansion lockdown and led the group inside.

Shi Feng opened Starlight Fortress’s Silver-grade Inheritance Room, which let one player experience a fully unlocked Mana Body for five minutes. Fire Dance entered first, while Shi Feng left after Maka Frey urgently summoned him.

• Water Rose and Yan Tianxing marveled at the City Lord’s Mansion’s dense mana and its training facilities as Shi Feng explained their benefits.
• Shi Feng activated the Inheritance Room with the Lord’s Token and learned that the Silver Mark allowed twelve uses per month, each granting one player five minutes at full Mana Body unlocking.
• Fire Dance volunteered to enter, and Shi Feng advised her to focus on sensing her Mana Body and adapting its operation.
• Water Rose told Shi Feng that Maka Frey had sent an urgent message, so Shi Feng left for the fortress’s temporary residence and told the others to enter one at a time.

Shi Feng rejected negotiations with the Netherworld Empire and went to claim control of Starlight Fortress, while Fitharia planned to speak with Hell Howl and hoped the approaching superpowers would change Shi Feng’s mind. Osetod confirmed Shi Feng’s Silver-rank authority and presented fortress privileges, including a Summoning Tower capable of calling powerful guardians.

• Fitharia and the Crimson Witch worried that Shi Feng’s refusal to negotiate could leave Starlight Fortress facing the Netherworld Empire and more than a dozen superpowers, while Fitharia planned to talk with Hell Howl.
• Shi Feng entered the City Lord’s Office to obtain control authority over Starlight Fortress from its administrator, Osetod.
• Osetod inspected Shi Feng’s marks and granted him Silver-rank fortress control authority, allowing him to choose one Bronze-rank and one Silver-rank privilege.
• Shi Feng examined the available privileges and was astonished that the Summoning Tower could summon a creature as powerful as a Tier 6 god if provided with a suitable medium.

Shi Feng activated Starlight Fortress’s Tower of Summoning and discovered its rune could teleport him between continents. He placed Ice Dragon Heswitt’s claw on the altar, and the chapter ended with the summoning requirements met.

• Shi Feng chose the Fortress Prison and Tower of Summoning as Starlight Fortress’s new permissions.
• Shi Feng spent 100,000 Magic Crystals to activate the Tower of Summoning and received a Summoning Divine Rune that could teleport him there once per day.

• Shi Feng placed Ice Dragon Heswitt’s claw on the summoning altar as a medium for a fortress guardian.
• The altar confirmed the claw met the summoning requirements, and Shi Feng chose to begin the summoning.

• Shi Feng used the Red Dragon Airship’s Magic Spirit Force to bombard the core arrays, exhausting his Magic Crystals as he continued firing.
• Shi Feng destroyed the seventh core magic array, causing the magical cage to shatter.

Shi Feng freed the Holy Dragon Ail Black and became its contractor, but Ail Black required him to pass a trial within four natural months. They escaped the collapsing Void Land and arrived at Starlight Fortress, where the dragon’s appearance stunned the assembled players.

• Shi Feng destroyed the magic cage’s core array, and Ail Black confirmed that he had freed it honestly.
• Ail Black offered Shi Feng a contract but set a trial: Shi Feng had four natural months and three attempts to earn its recognition.
• Shi Feng received the Contractor’s Mark, made Ail Black the guardian of Starlight Fortress, and saw that the Level 111 dragon had 10.9 billion HP.
• As the deserted island collapsed, Ail Black carried Shi Feng through the spatial rift back to Starlight Fortress.
• The Summoning Tower released a powerful pressure and opened a spatial rift, from which Ail Black emerged before the astonished players.

Fitharia and the Divine Will Tribe panicked when Holy Dragon Elbrack appeared above Starlight Fortress, and they prepared to sacrifice their Tier 3 experts to lure it away. The dragon sealed off teleportation before its rider descended and revealed himself as Guild Leader Black Flame.
