Leaders from across the continent gathered at Langya Pavilion to divide up the work of bringing the regions and factions under their alliance. After resolving the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan’s crisis and securing its submission, the meeting assigned each major region to a force, leaving the Gu Clan responsible for the Eastern Continent.

Several months later, Ge Xiusi briefed the Barbarian Revered and other Barbarian Demon leaders on the Dou Qi Continent as their fleet approached it.

• Ge Xiusi explained that the Dou Qi Continent’s Dou Di realm had been extinct for ten thousand years, though its strongest remaining cultivators had once matched their commanders.
• Ge Xiusi argued that the Langya Palace Master likely broke through on the Dou Qi Continent, so the continent might again produce a Dou Di.
• Ge Xiusi estimated that the continent had at most two or three Demon Emperor-level powerhouses and two hundred Demon Marshal-level powerhouses, and the Barbarian Revered judged their fleet had the advantage.

Xiao Han led the Ice Emperor, Yang Ling, and Liu Qingyang to attack Barbarian King City, where Tianhuang and Qian Feng’s forces vastly outnumbered them.

• Xiao Han killed two Profound Demon Emperors, and Ice Emperor Sao Yan held off the remaining Demon Emperors until Xiao Han’s spears killed five more and froze Barbarian King City’s Extraterrestrial Evil race army.

• The Barbarian Demon Race Patriarch received seven shattered Talisman Seals and ordered an investigation into Langya Heavenly Palace, then learned most of his available Demon Emperor powerhouses had been sent to Dou Qi Continent.

• A messenger reported that the Extraterrestrial Evil race had begun splitting its forces to attack the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent.

Xiao Xuan, Gu Yuan, and Zhu Kun struggled against four members of the Extraterrestrial Evil race until Ye Jianxin arrived and struck them with a sword. The four enemies convulsed in agony, leaving Ye Jianxin himself baffled by the power of his attack.

Xiao Han brought Xiao Yan and more than a hundred Dou Qi Continent experts to the Great Thousand World, leaving the Ice Emperor to guard their home.
