Meanwhile, Wukong’s clone wrote and submitted a tragic new book about Yang Jian, unaware that Bibi Dong had dismissed his earlier manuscript as ordinary fiction.

• Wukong chose spirit armor over a Soul Bone and showed the Dragon Kings his design for the Great Sage’s crown, armor, boots, bracer, and cloak.

• Afterward, Zi JI had reached three hundred and eighty thousand years of cultivation, one step short of the four-hundred-thousand-year Ferocious Beast Realm.

After seven days of dual cultivation, Wukong and Zi JI emerged with their bond deepened and Wukong’s physique greatly strengthened. The Dragon King Remnant Spirits explained the method’s limits, then directed Wukong toward the Dragon God’s remains so he could attempt to open the inheritance trial.

• Wukong and Zi JI finished their seven-day dual cultivation, and Wukong accepted responsibility for her as his woman.

The Dragon God agreed to open the inheritance, and Wukong planned to use his transformation into the Silver Dragon King to secure its highest grade.

• Wukong unleashed his full strength and endured the Dragon God's pressure, absorbing enough seven-colored divine power to surpass the five-million-year limit.
• Wukong learned that the power could heal injuries to one's origin and that his Martial Soul had advanced to Super God Rank, granting him Gold Secondary Awakening.
• The Dragon God's remnant spirit praised Wukong's strength and agreed to open the inheritance, while warning that his lack of Dragon Clan bloodline could limit its grade.
• Wukong transformed into Di Tian, and the Dragon God confirmed that his appearance and Dark Dragon Clan aura were convincing enough to fool the inheritance's appraisal.
• Wukong proposed using the Silver Dragon King's aura instead, and the Dragon God agreed that it could qualify him for the highest grade of inheritance.

Wukong transformed into the Silver Dragon King to qualify for the Dragon God Inheritance, receiving the Dragon God's Eight Trials while Zi Ji received five. Wukong began the first trial and endured its eight-colored lightning, which reshaped his Stone Monkey origin into that of a Dragon Monkey.

• Wukong used his Seventy-Two Transformations to mimic the Silver Dragon King's form and aura, convincing the Dragon God Remnant Spirit to test him for the inheritance.
• The Dragon God invited Zi Ji to take the trial as well, and divine light descended upon both of them.

• Wukong charged into the lightning and withstood its destructive force, while the tribulation shattered the borrowed Silver Dragon Origin and imprinted it into his Stone Monkey origin, making him a Dragon Monkey.

After surviving their first Dragon God trials, Wukong and Zi JI recovered and began the Thunder Abyss bone-tempering trial. Wukong endured its daily lightning punishment as his bones and physical limit grew stronger.

• Wukong survived the eight-colored tribulation and gained the Silver Dragon King's origin, while Zi JI survived her five-colored tribulation and raised her bloodline to Dragon King level.
• Wukong cared for exhausted Zi JI, and they spent three days recovering beside the Dragon God's skeleton.
