Chapter Summaries

The Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor Dongxu let the procession pass after the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch deterred the Thousand-Eyed Venerable. As the Nine-Dragon Imperial Carriage moved on, the Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor launched a sudden ambush, and a disguised devil joined the strike, shattering the carriage and apparently killing the Sky-Supporting High Priest.

• Tianzhi Baize ordered an attack, but the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch intercepted the Thousand-Eyed Venerable’s meteor assault and threatened retaliation in the Demon Realm.
• The Thousand-Eyed Venerable backed down, and the Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor Dongxu stepped aside as the procession continued.
• The Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor suddenly trapped the area with Blood-Sea Prison Suppression and struck the Nine-Dragon Imperial Carriage with his Void-Piercing Hand.
• Tianzhi Baize, Immortal Emperor Shura, the Illusory Annihilation Demon Emperor, and the Vika Demon Emperor tried to defend the carriage, but their attacks failed to stop the ambush.
• A disguised lesser devil used Buddha’s Wrath, Great Annihilation Technique to smash the carriage, and the Sky-Supporting High Priest shattered amid the wreckage before vanishing in a burst of blood mist.

The Void Buddha Emperor’s Great Annihilation Technique apparently killed Xiao Ying, prompting the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch to attack the fleeing assassins and slaughter their followers. As Xiao Ying’s blood mist vanished, the Blue Sky Empress intervened to save him, while the Thousand-Eyed Venerable questioned whether the victim was truly the Sky-Supporting High Priest.

• The Void Buddha Emperor annihilated Xiao Ying, and the witnesses believed the Sky-Supporting High Priest was dead.
• The Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor, Demon Emperor Dongxu, and Void Buddha Emperor tried to flee, but the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch trapped two and threatened the Buddha Emperor by killing tens of thousands of cultivators.
• The Sky-Supporting tribespeople and Nine-Dragon Island’s emperors tried various revival arts, but none could stop Xiao Ying’s blood mist from disappearing.
• The Blue Sky Empress manifested her Great Dao and began weaving a Heaven-and-Earth Net, giving observers hope that she could save Xiao Ying.
• The Thousand-Eyed Venerable allowed the Blue Sky Empress to act, then asked the Annihilation Patriarch whether the victim was really Xiao Ying; the Annihilation Patriarch insisted their identification was certain.

After Void Buddha Emperor’s Great Annihilation Technique nearly destroyed Xiao Ying, Blue Sky Empress and Immortal Emperor Shura helped restore him, revealing his innate undying blood-demon physique. Xiao Ying survived but lost his cultivation and Dao foundation, while Void Buddha Emperor tried to escape.

• Annihilation Patriarch pushed Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor to confront the danger as Blue Sky Empress used the Great Soul-Summoning Art and discovered the summoned soul did not look like Xiao Ying.
• Blue Sky Empress used the Great Dispersal Art and Great Restoration Art to halt the annihilation, then began burning her cultivation to save Xiao Ying.
• Immortal Emperor Shura recognized that Xiao Ying was not dead and activated Blood-Drop Resurrection Art, turning his three blood droplets into a sea of blood.
• Xiao Ying rose from the sea of blood with an innate undying blood-demon physique, but his Dao foundation was damaged and his cultivation had fallen below the true Dao realm.
• Xiao Ying thanked Blue Sky Empress as Void Buddha Emperor tried to escape, and someone attacked him with countless green branches.

Xiao Ying and Nine-Dragon Island’s forces attacked Void Buddha Emperor after he tried to flee, while Dragon Mulberry Patriarch and Blue Sky Empress helped wound and trap him. Void Buddha Emperor escaped badly injured, and Blue Sky Empress claimed the Other Shore Golden Bridge, prompting Xiao Ying to declare their karmic accounts settled.

• Xiao Ying ordered an all-out attack and gave Tianzhi Baize the five-aggregate purple thunder bamboo, while Immortal Emperor Shura killed the remaining Devil Race members.
• Tianzhi Baize used the bamboo to immobilize Prison-Suppressing Immortal Emperor and Void-Penetrating Devil Emperor, and Heaven-Desolation Demon Emperor sent them to the lotus platform.
• Nine-Dragon Island’s emperors and Demonic Scales Fighters overwhelmed Buddhist Emperor Pudu, who retrieved his Violet-Gold Alms Bowl and fled.
• Void Buddha Emperor tried to escape on the Other Shore Golden Bridge, but Blue Sky Empress sealed it long enough for Dragon Mulberry Patriarch to strike him grievously with the Seven Luminaries Staff.
• Void Buddha Emperor tore through the Pangu Grand Formation and escaped, while Blue Sky Empress claimed the abandoned Other Shore Golden Bridge.
• Xiao Ying praised Blue Sky Empress for taking the bridge and said their karmic accounts were settled, and she questioned whether he was ending their relationship before they had crossed the river.

Xiao Ying received the Other Shore Golden Bridge from the Blue Sky Empress, who offered it in exchange for his marrying Meng Xunqing and threatened to reveal that he possessed Thunder Emperor Island’s Sacred Treasure if he refused. Xiao Ying rejected the match but suggested he might marry the Blue Sky Empress instead, then set out for the Founding Tribulation with the bridge sent to his true body for refining.

• The Blue Sky Empress gave Xiao Ying the Other Shore Golden Bridge, claiming she had no use for it, and Xiao Ying accepted it despite suspecting she wanted something in return.
• The Blue Sky Empress publicly asked Xiao Ying to marry her beloved disciple Meng Xunqing after he survived the Founding Tribulation, then privately threatened to expose his possession of Thunder Emperor Island’s Sacred Treasure.
• Xiao Ying refused to marry Meng Xunqing, citing his wife and concubines, but said he might consider marrying the Blue Sky Empress instead.
• The Blue Sky Empress left after warning Xiao Ying that he would face consequences if he did not give her an affirmative answer after founding his nation, while she assured Meng Xunqing he would agree.
• Xiao Ying sent the Other Shore Golden Bridge to his true body for refining and ordered his party to set out.
• Tianzhi Baize advised Xiao Ying to consider a marriage alliance with Empress Island, and Xiao Ying rebuked him for bringing it up.

Xiao Ying revealed that the weakened figure who had faced his enemies was only an incarnation, then began the ceremony to found a nation on Nine-Dragon Island. As the Great Dao and national fortune stirred, the Great Huan Celestial Dynasty’s fortune cloud began to disperse after its forbidden capital was relocated, unsettling Pangu World.

• Xiao Ying revealed his restored true body at the ritual altar, shocking the gathered cultivators and exposing how thoroughly he had deceived his allies and enemies.
• Thousand-Eyed Venerable realized his plot had only harmed Xiao Ying’s incarnation, while the Blue Sky Empress and Demon Emperor Lingjing discussed Xiao Ying and Meng Xunqing’s feelings.
• Blood Suan Witch Emperor began the nation-founding ceremony, and Xiao Ying’s followers knelt and sent their collective will toward the altar.
• Xiao Ying bowed to Heaven as the Golden Sea Dragon and Dragon Mulberry Patriarch helped communicate with the Great Dao, while storms gathered and a nine-dragon national fortune cloud formed.
• The Great Huan Celestial Dynasty’s national fortune cloud began to disperse in Pangu World after its forbidden capital was relocated, provoking upheaval amid existing unrest.

As Xiao Ying began founding an immortal kingdom on Nine-Dragon Island, the national fortune cloud revealed that much of the Great Huan Celestial Dynasty had fallen into chaos, leaving him worried about rebellion in the Pangu World. He hurried to begin the founding tribulation and sent the Tribulation Purple Lotus rising toward the thunderclouds.

• The Dragon Mulberry Giant Tree guided the Golden Sea Dragon as a sixth, golden dragon formed in Xiao Ying’s national fortune cloud and the statehood projection revealed Nine-Dragon Island’s immense territory.
• Xiao Ying saw that much of Great Huan’s territory had become indistinct and blood-clouded, and feared the founding ceremony was encouraging unrest in the Pangu World.
• Xiao Ying reasoned that rebellion was difficult to prevent and resolved to complete the founding quickly so he could return to the Pangu World.
• Thunderclouds gathered over Nine-Dragon Island, and the Golden Sea Dragon and Dragon Mulberry Giant Tree withdrew as the national heavenly tribulation began to form.
• Xiao Ying told the cultivators around him to prepare, then the Tribulation Purple Lotus rose a hundred thousand feet toward the thunderclouds, alarming the witnesses.

Xiao Ying drove the Tribulation Purple Lotus into the heavenly lightning, where it blossomed into a twenty-seventh-grade Treasure Lotus and endured three days of tribulation. As the first tribulation subsided, Nine-Dragon Island began to suffer the arriving Earthly Tribulation.

• Xiao Ying and the experts aboard the Tribulation Purple Lotus advanced toward the Eye of Heaven, drawing increasingly powerful lightning as onlookers worried about his reckless approach.
• A bolt of tribulation lightning struck the lotus, causing it to unfold from twelve petals into a twenty-seventh-grade Treasure Lotus and convincing the spectators that Nine-Dragon Island could survive the heavenly tribulation.
• The Blue Sky Empress speculated that the Treasure Lotus might contain the Karmic Fire Thunder Prison, while the Annihilation Patriarch urged the Thousand-Eyed Venerable to attack; the Venerable refused to act prematurely.
• The Tribulation Purple Lotus remained inside the thunderclouds for three days and three nights until the heavenly tribulation weakened and began to subside.
• Nine-Dragon Island shook as mountains split, buildings collapsed, and the ocean surged into towering waves, marking the start of the Earthly Tribulation.

As the earthly tribulation battered Nine-Dragon Island with earthquakes and tsunamis, Xiao Ying used the nation’s treasures and powers to protect the island. He summoned the Other Shore Golden Bridge and an ancient bell to suppress the disasters, though the tribulation was still underway.

• The Tribulation Purple Lotus landed with thirty-two petals, and the cultivators realized Xiao Ying had refined it into a founding national treasure.
• At the Blood Suan Witch Emperor’s command, Xiao Ying bowed to the earth, triggering violent earthquakes and tsunamis that threatened to tear Nine-Dragon Island apart.
• The Dragon Mulberry Patriarch manifested a giant tree to stabilize the island, but its effort consumed his strength while the formations rapidly drained immortal crystals.
• Xiao Ying activated the Nine-Dragon Seal, strengthening the national cloud and sending nine divine dragons to guard the island while easing the shaking and healing injuries.
• Xiao Ying enlarged his witch body and sent the Other Shore Golden Bridge west, suppressing earthquakes and calming the seas within its reach.
• Xiao Ying summoned an enormous ancient bell and commanded it to suppress heaven and earth, its toll quieting the disasters wherever its sound spread.

After Nine-Dragon Island suppressed the earthly tribulation, Xiao Ying chose to continue founding his nation despite fearing the human tribulation would devastate the Great Huan Celestial Dynasty. When the human tribulation began, hostility did not erupt on the island, and Xiao Ying realized his subjects in the Pangu World might be bearing its brunt.

• The Blood Suan Witch Emperor asked Xiao Ying whether they should continue, and Xiao Ying ordered the founding to proceed rather than retreat.
• The Blood Suan Witch Emperor announced the third bow, and Xiao Ying bowed to all living beings and the nation, beginning the human tribulation.
• After a hundred breaths, no beast tide or attackers appeared on Nine-Dragon Island, so Xiao Ying suspected hostile forces were directing the tribulation toward the Great Huan Celestial Dynasty.
• Xiao Ying roared challenges at his enemies and began declaring his vow to lead Great Huan into the Upper Realm, but the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch shouted him down and the Blue Sky Empress sealed his voice and consciousness.

Xiao Ying faced a coalition of powerful forces demanding people and treasures, while beast tides surged toward Nine-Dragon Island and its defenders were stretched thin. He rejected their demands and declared he was ready to fight, prompting Kong Nishang to attack him.

• The Dragon Mulberry Patriarch warned Xiao Ying not to meddle in Immortal Venerable Pangu's affairs and withdrew as the Thousand-Eyed Venerable and the Annihilation Patriarch held the opposing side in check.
• A vast tide of demonic beasts and sea beasts surged toward Nine-Dragon Island, and Bai Ze sent eight Demon Emperors to defend its shores.
• Fourteen Emperor Realm experts from the Golden Devil Race, Blood Venerating Island, Buddhist forces, Mysterious Emperor Island, and the Five Absolutes Demon Sect surrounded the Tribulation Purple Lotus and demanded people or treasures.
• Xiao Ying accused the assembled forces of using excuses to seize his treasures and declared that Nine-Dragon Island was prepared to fight.
• Kong Nishang attacked Xiao Ying with a gigantic five-colored hand after he refused to return the Ten-Thousand Birds Five-Absolutes Fan.

Xiao Ying faced Kong Nishang and the other hostile Demon Emperors, then surrounded himself with Nine-Dragon Island’s powerful defenses to survive their attack and the great beast tide. While the visitors watched and debated, the beast tide battered the island’s formations, and the Mountain Giant Ape emerged as the most powerful of the eight defending Demon Emperors.

• Xiao Ying countered Kong Nishang’s attacks with the Ten-Thousand Birds Five-Absolutes Fan and a starlit branch, then offered to negotiate its return after the crisis.
• Demon Emperor Lixia rejected Xiao Ying’s offer, so Xiao Ying told Bai Ze, Blood Suan, Shura, and the others to stall their opponents while he held out for the beast tide to pass.
• Xiao Ying deployed the Great Huan Heaven-Earth, the Heaven-Earth Bell, the Other Shore Golden Bridge, his jailers, the Celestial Cycle Star-Dipper Formation, and the Demon-Scale Fleet to protect himself.
• The hostile cultivators and Nine-Dragon Island’s allies watched in astonishment, while Meng Xunqing praised Xiao Ying’s cautious tactics and the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch’s group observed from afar.
• Hundreds of thousands of birds and millions of beasts attacked Nine-Dragon Island’s Pangu Grand Formation as its weapons and eight Demon Emperors fought back.
• The Mountain Giant Ape, the fourth-ranked Heaven-Battling Demon Emperor, stood out among Nine-Dragon Island’s defenders.

As the beast tide overwhelmed Nine-Dragon Island’s defenses, Xiao Ying contracted the Pangu Grand Formation and sent the Demon-Scale Fleet into battle. The fleet killed the Kun-Scaled Emperor Whale in one volley, but Emperor Realm foes struck back and damaged its formation.

• The Mountain Giant Ape and the other Demon Emperors revealed their true forms and fought the beast tide, while several were wounded and the Emperor Realm forces struggled to hold their sectors.
• Tianzhi Baize warned Xiao Ying that the Pangu Grand Formation was nearly out of immortal crystals, so Xiao Ying contracted it around the Nine-Dragon Mountain Range and ordered the Demon-Scale Fleet to attack.
• Five hundred Demonic Scales Fighters bombarded the Kun-Scaled Emperor Whale, mortally wounding it and relieving the Heaven-Annihilating Demon Emperor, Kui; the whale soon died.
• The Demon-Scale Fleet flew toward the Dragon-Horned Wild Bull, but Mora Berserk Shark Clan experts struck it with Moro Blade and damaged or destroyed dozens of fighters.
• A Howling Moon Sea Wolf appeared and knocked more than a dozen Demonic Scales Fighters from the sky.

The battle at Nine-Dragon Island escalated as Emperor Realm fighters joined the conflict around Xiao Ying and the purple lotus. By the chapter’s end, both sides had engaged their opponents, while Blood Suan and the other Witch Emperors faced the remaining hostile cultivators without a clear way to intervene.

• Nearly four hundred Demonic Scales Fighters killed the Dragon-Horned Wild Bull, and the three remaining Sea King Beasts led a furious attack on the fleet.
• The Motian Sea Emperor and Mountain-Shaking Sea Emperor denied responsibility for the ambush, while Demon Emperor Jinyun attacked Xiao Ying and Immortal Emperor Nuwa intervened to stop him.
• Buddha Emperor Wuwang entered the Great Huan Heaven-Earth, where Linglong and the island’s manifestations overwhelmed him with attacks.
• Demon Emperor Lingjing confronted the Motian Sea Emperor and drew him, the Void-Eater Sea Emperor, and another Sea Emperor into battle above Nine-Dragon Island.
• Immortal Emperor Shura faced the Rakshasa Immortal Emperor, Tianzhi Baize intercepted Buddha Emperor Miaowu, and other Emperor Realm cultivators took on their assigned opponents.
• Blood Suan and the other Witch Emperor Realm cultivators saw that eight hostile Emperor Realm cultivators remained and doubted they could hold even one of them back.

Chapter Summary: Standing Alone Against Seven Emperors

Key Plot Points and Events

• After their fellow Emperor Realm experts are successively defeated or restrained, Blood Suan and the other two pseudo-Witch Emperors realize they cannot meaningfully assist Xiao Ying against the remaining enemy Emperors. Xiao Ying orders them to handle lower-realm opponents and avoid the powerful Sea Emperors.
• Xiao Ying declares that he alone is sufficient to face the remaining Emperor Realm enemies. He warns Kong Mengxuan, the Five Absolutes Demon Sect’s Saintess, that anyone below the Emperor Realm will die upon entering his Great Huan Heaven-Earth.
• Kong Nishang, Lixia Demon Emperor, and Wushang Demon Emperor enter Xiao Ying’s domain, while Kong Mengxuan remains outside to avoid worsening the conflict between the Five Absolutes Demon Sect and Nine-Dragon Island.
• The enemy forces now include seven Emperor Realm experts inside the battlefield, with two additional Sea Emperors fighting elsewhere. Despite the numerical disadvantage, Xiao Ying uses his domain, formations, treasures, artifact spirits, and guardian beast to restrain nearly all of them.
• Artifact spirit Xiaotian uses a miniature manifestation of the Heaven-Earth Bell to counter Mountain-Shaking Sea Emperor’s sound-based attacks. This reveals that the Heaven-Earth Bell is likely at least a superior-grade Dao Artifact, and possibly even a Sacred Treasure.
• Duquan Immortal Emperor attacks Xiao Ying with his Blood Demon body and eight weapons, but Xiao Ying counters with the Moro Blade, the Celestial Cycle Star-Dipper Formation, and the power of hundreds of Great Demons.
• Jingjue Nun proves especially difficult to contain because her Buddhist powers absorb or repel the endless manifestations within the domain. Xiao Ying summons the Golden Sea Dragon, which combines with the star formation to engage and restrain her.
• Kong Nishang and the two other Demon Emperors eventually reach Xiao Ying, becoming the only enemy group still directly confronting him.
• Wushang Demon Emperor launches the devastating Heaven-Mandated Dark Finger. Xiao Ying cannot block it directly, but the guardian beast Ba Serpent swallows both the attack and Wushang, seemingly transporting her into another dimension.
• Kong Nishang questions why Xiao Ying has not used the Other Shore Golden Bridge, believing he cannot yet control it fully. Xiao Ying cryptically replies that once he uses it, an Emperor will certainly fall.

Character Developments

• Xiao Ying demonstrates extraordinary confidence, strategic control, and willingness to stand alone against overwhelming odds. Rather than relying solely on direct combat, he coordinates formations, artifacts, manifested armies, the Golden Sea Dragon, and Ba Serpent to neutralize multiple Emperor Realm threats.
• Kong Mengxuan shows restraint and political awareness by obeying Kong Nishang’s order to remain outside. Her decision prevents the Five Absolutes Demon Sect’s conflict with Xiao Ying from becoming an irreconcilable blood feud.
• Kong Nishang emerges as cautious and pragmatic. Although she leads the attack, she recognizes that the Five Absolutes Demon Sect has unexpectedly become the decisive force and is unsettled by Xiao Ying’s warning that someone will die if they continue.
• Lixia Demon Emperor remains aggressive and dismissive, challenging Xiao Ying’s arrogance, but her refusal to attack recklessly reveals that she takes the danger seriously.
• Wushang Demon Emperor appears quiet and elusive until suddenly unleashing a nearly unavoidable attack, establishing her as a highly dangerous and unpredictable opponent.
• The artifact spirits Linglong and Xiaotian actively support Xiao Ying. Linglong directs Xiaotian to counter the sound-based Sea Emperor, while Xiaotian’s control of the miniature Heaven-Earth Bell reveals the extraordinary nature of the artifact.
• Ba Serpent proves both intelligent and extremely powerful, intervening at a crucial moment to save Xiao Ying from Wushang’s attack.

Significant Themes

• Strength against overwhelming odds: Xiao Ying’s battle against multiple Emperors emphasizes his exceptional power and ability to survive through strategy rather than brute force alone.
• Strategic versatility: The chapter highlights the importance of combining formations, treasures, guardian beasts, artifact spirits, and summoned manifestations to overcome stronger opponents.
• Political restraint and shifting alliances: The Five Absolutes Demon Sect is not driven by deep hatred of Xiao Ying, and Kong Mengxuan’s survival could prevent a temporary conflict from becoming a permanent feud.
• Confidence versus arrogance: Xiao Ying’s declarations appear arrogant to Lixia, but his ability to restrain seven Emperors suggests that his confidence is grounded in genuine preparation.
• Hidden trump cards: Xiao Ying’s mysterious confidence in the Other Shore Golden Bridge creates suspense, implying that he possesses a decisive technique or treasure not yet revealed.
• The limits of numbers: Although Xiao Ying is vastly outnumbered, the enemy Emperors cannot act effectively because his domain divides and contains them individually.

Character Interactions

• Xiao Ying gives orders to the three pseudo-Witch Emperors, establishing his authority even amid crisis.
• He deliberately warns Kong Mengxuan rather than attacking her, showing that he wishes to avoid unnecessary hostility with the Five Absolutes Demon Sect.
• Kong Nishang and Xiao Ying exchange cautious words before the decisive confrontation. She acknowledges that their forces have unexpectedly become central to the battle, while he warns that continuing will inevitably result in deaths.
• Lixia openly challenges Xiao Ying’s claim that he can kill them, but her hesitation shows respect for his hidden strength.
• Wushang bypasses the verbal exchange and attacks directly, forcing Ba Serpent to intervene.
• Kong Nishang attempts to analyze Xiao Ying’s limitations by questioning his use of the Other Shore Golden Bridge, but Xiao Ying answers with another veiled threat, leaving the outcome uncertain.

Xiao Ying used his hidden allies and sacred treasures to kill Demon Emperor Lixia, shocking the emperors fighting around him. Kong Nishang transformed into a Five-Colored Peacock and attacked Xiao Ying, whose Golden Bridge and Seven Luminaries Demon-Summoning Wood weakened her assault.

• Kong Nishang attacked Xiao Ying with the Great Five Elements Art, and he summoned the Other Shore Golden Bridge and struck back with three weapons.
• Demon Emperor Lixia transformed into a fire phoenix and charged Xiao Ying, who used the Seven Luminaries Demon-Summoning Wood and Underground Dragon Earthworm to restrain her.
• Myriad Wonders Immortal Emperor Yi Miaoyun struck Lixia from Xiao Ying's shadow, and Xiao Ying beheaded the wounded Demon Emperor with the Dao-Splitting Golden Blade.
• Kong Nishang revealed her Five-Colored Peacock true form as Demon Emperor Wushang broke free from the Ba Serpent and revealed his Heaven-Mandated Dark Bird form.
• Kong Nishang unleashed a five-colored storm at Xiao Ying, but he weakened it with the Seven Luminaries Demon-Summoning Wood and suppressed it with the Other Shore Golden Bridge.

Xiao Ying and the defenders of Nine-Dragon Island faced a growing assault as the Devil Race overwhelmed the island’s cities and threatened Heaven-Supporting City. After sealing off the city and calling allies back to reinforce the battle, Xiao Ying used Nuwa’s lent power to ambush and kill Azure Desolation Demon Emperor.

• Xiao Ying held off Kong Nishang with the Seven Luminaries Demon-Summoning Wood and the Other Shore Golden Bridge while Demon Emperor Wushang’s attacks were repeatedly checked by the Ba Serpent.
• The Devil Race rebelled across Nine-Dragon Island, capturing eight cities and then pouring into Heaven-Supporting City as the fighting spread into chaos.
• Blood Suan Witch Emperor struck down two leading Devil Kings but could not stop the surging attackers, so Xiao Ying ordered the Nine Tripods to seal Heaven-Supporting City within the Pangu Grand Formation.
• Xiao Ying called Vika Demon Emperor and Illusory Annihilation Demon Emperor back to reinforce Great Huan Heaven-Earth, and both drove invading devils away from its interior.
• Xiao Ying used the Evil Moon Legend to draw on Nuwa’s lent cultivation, then struck the distracted Azure Desolation Demon Emperor with a lightning-wreathed jade bamboo and shattered his body.

Xiao Ying borrowed Immortal Emperor Nuwa’s power to kill the Azure Desolation Demon Emperor and severely wound Demon Emperor Zhiqi, then unleashed a devastating attack that stunned the battlefield. The four pinnacle existences debated the source of Xiao Ying’s power and suspected a fate divine ability tied to a vast scheme.

• Xiao Ying used Nuwa’s power and the five-aggregate purple thunder bamboo to blast apart the Azure Desolation Demon Emperor, then struck Demon Emperor Zhiqi and sent him fleeing with severe injuries.
• Xiao Ying unleashed his weapons and treasures in a massive assault that killed more than ten thousand demons and briefly halted fighting across Heaven-Supporting City and Nine-Dragon Island.
• The emperors and spectators reacted with shock to Xiao Ying’s apparent mid-Emperor Realm power, and Demon Emperor Jinyun hesitated to enter the Great Huan Heaven-Earth.
• The Annihilation Patriarch, Thousand-Eyed Venerable, Blue Sky Empress, and Dragon Mulberry Patriarch discussed Nuwa’s connection to Xiao Ying and questioned whether his power came from a fate divine ability.
• The Thousand-Eyed Venerable suggested that only Immortal Venerable Pangu or the Great Dream Immortal Venerable could be behind a scheme of this scale.

Xiao Ying fought off a coordinated assault by the Devil Race and Emperor Realm cultivators after the Thousand-Eyed Venerable and Blue Sky Empress used Nuwa’s power to test whether he would reveal Pangu’s abilities. When his borrowed strength was disrupted and he faced two emperors alone, Xiao Ying’s Pangu bloodline awakened and absorbed the battlefield’s power.

• The Blue Sky Empress pulled Nuwa from Heaven-Supporting City and ordered the emperors to keep Xiao Ying using her power so they could test his abilities.
• The Devil Race and Emperor Realm cultivators charged the sacrificial plaza, where Xiao Ying used the Other Shore Golden Bridge and Heaven-Earth Bell to counter Buddha Emperor Wuwang and Nun Jingjue.
• Demon Emperor Jinyun, Kong Nishang, and the Mountain-Shaking Sea Emperor coordinated attacks against Xiao Ying, and the Mountain-Shaking Sea Emperor was engulfed by Xiao Ying’s forces after blocking a strike for Kong Nishang.
• Kong Nishang’s Five Absolutes Divine Ability stripped away Xiao Ying’s imperial and totem powers and disconnected him from his treasures, leaving him exposed to attacks from Duquan Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor Jinyun.
• As the other emperors were prevented from rescuing him, Xiao Ying’s Pangu bloodline erupted, drawing the Great Huan Heaven-Earth, the Lightning Prison forces, and the Celestial Cycle Star-Dipper Formation into his body before he struck out with a punch.

Xiao Ying defeated several Emperor Realm attackers with his Pangu bloodline power, then collapsed back to the Heavenly Shaman Realm as Nine-Dragon Island secured the battlefield. The surviving enemies fled, and the beast tide along the island’s shores subsided.

• Xiao Ying crippled Duquan Immortal Emperor and injured Demon Emperor Jinyun with a single punch, allowing Rakshasa Immortal Emperor to escape with Duquan.
• Demon Emperor Jinyun, Buddha Emperor Wuwang, Five Spirits, and Nun Jingjue attacked Xiao Ying, while other Emperor Realm enemies retreated.
• Xiao Ying understood the essence of his Pangu bloodline and struck the four attackers with Pangu Creation of Heaven, Fist Shatters Primordial Chaos.
• Nine-Dragon Island’s Emperor Realm experts further injured Demon Emperor Jinyun, Buddha Emperor Wuwang, and Kong Nishang, while Nun Jingjue escaped.
• Xiao Ying’s Pangu True Form dissolved, and Ba Serpent swallowed the three gravely injured emperors and returned to the Karmic Fire Thunder Prison.
• The remaining Devil Race forces and the fleeing Desolation-Eater Sea Emperor and Cloudblade Sea Emperor withdrew, and the beast tide along Nine-Dragon Island’s shores subsided.
