• Qing Tian and the leaders of the minor branches acknowledged Qing Yanjing and Mu Chen, while Mo Tong accepted that their opponents had prevailed.
• Qin Tian arrived too late to prevent a Heavenly Sovereign's death, then questioned Hun Tiandi about the conflict.

• Budu Xuan resigned as First Elder, Qing Yanjing succeeded him, and Mu Chen was announced as clan leader.
• Mu Chen convened his first clan meeting and read out a proposed treaty with the Soul Hall, prompting Budu Xuan to denounce it as selling out the clan.

Mu Chen defended the harsh agreement transferring Budu Clan resources and Son of the Continent slots to the Soul Clan, insisting he would honor his promises as clan leader. Qing Yanjing supported him and urged him to forgive the clan; Mu Chen said retaliation was not the main reason for the agreement, leaving her asking about his true motives.

• Mu Chen rejected the elders’ objections to the agreement and blamed Budu Xuan for provoking the intervention that led to it.
• Mo Tong and Xuan Zun urged Mu Chen to prioritize the Budu Clan’s future, but he insisted on keeping his promises and told them to challenge the Hall Master themselves if they disagreed.

• Qing Yanjing privately urged Mu Chen to let go of his grievances and accept the Budu Clan, while Mu Chen reflected that his path had brought him little hardship.
• Mu Chen told Qing Yanjing that he felt disgust toward the clan but not enough hatred to destroy it, and that revenge was not the deciding factor behind the agreement.
• Qing Yanjing asked Mu Chen to explain why he had agreed to give up benefits worth nearly thirty percent of the Budu Clan’s income.

Mu Chen explained why he had negotiated harsh terms with the Soul Hall: he wanted resources to grow stronger and help the Budu Clan seize opportunities in the coming war. Qing Yanjing accepted his plans, learned about Luo Li, and revealed that she had kept the Budu Clan’s lost Endless Radiance Body for him.

• Mu Chen told Qing Yanjing that the final activation of the Great Thousand Demon-Transforming Array and the decisive war against the Outer Evil Clan were approaching, and explained how his agreements with the Soul Hall could help the Budu Clan prepare and regain its strength.

• Mu Chen told Qing Yanjing that he would now stand with the Budu Clan while repaying the Soul Hall and Soul Clan for their kindness.
• Qing Yanjing privately revealed that she had the Budu Ancient Clan’s supposedly lost Endless Radiance Body and offered it to Mu Chen as a possible replacement for his Sovereign Celestial Body.

Mu Chen considered inheriting the Budu Clan’s Endless Radiance Body but chose to pursue the Eternal Undying Body instead. After Qing Yanjing brought him to the Ancestral Land to study the Endless Radiance Body, Di Er Meng proposed a way for him to let a clone inherit it without destroying his Immortal Golden Body.

• Mu Chen told Qing Yanjing that he wanted to keep cultivating the Immortal Golden Body and seek the Eternal Undying Body at the Mohe Clan’s Eternal Assembly.
• Qing Yanjing agreed to let Mu Chen study the Endless Radiance Body before returning it and sealed off the Budu Ancestral Land with the ancestral pagoda.
• Qing Yanjing revealed the Endless Radiance Body, and Mu Chen asked Di Er Meng why she had urged him to obtain it.
• Di Er Meng suggested having a clone inherit the Endless Radiance Body, but Mu Chen said he had not mastered the Three-God Realm needed to make a clone fully independent.
• Di Er Meng split herself into eight weakened copies and asked Mu Chen what would happen if he reversed the Three-Unity Realm’s process of merging three into one.

Mu Chen learned that Di Er Meng’s apparent death only left her weakened, as her independent clones could survive and merge back together. Her explanation of the Unity Realm led him to suspect that Di Er Meng was not a separate person but one of the Amon Clan’s clones.

• Di Er Meng slit her throat to demonstrate that her other independent clones could survive her death, then turned her corpse into a star-colored Spirit Worm.
• Mu Chen reasoned that he had first met one of Di Er Meng’s weak clones and that her main body had appeared later, but she insisted she had always been present and that he was her only lifelong bond.
• Di Er Meng admitted that Mu Chen had refined a weak clone while her original body was nearby and that she had pretended to be weak to make their bargain seem worthwhile.
• Mu Chen inferred that the Three-God Realm could advance into a Unity Realm where independent clones merged together, and Di Er Meng confirmed his guess.
• Mu Chen connected the Unity Realm to the Amon Clan’s growth and suspected that the entire clan was one person, with Di Er Meng merely one of Amon’s clones.

Di Er Meng explained how Amon’s avatars became independent individuals and formed the Amon Family, whose leaders repeatedly fought for power. She revealed that the current leader had centralized control by turning most Amons into avatars, then created new independent clansmen through random splitting, including Di Er Meng.

• Di Er Meng warned Mu Chen that avatars who lived apart from their main body could develop into separate people, and that multiplying avatars could create a whole population of different Mu Chens.
• Di Er Meng traced the Amon Family’s origins to Original Amon, whose scattered avatars grew independent before gathering and forming a clan.
• Di Er Meng recounted how Amon the Second killed Original Amon, and how later leaders seized power through violent succession, strengthening the clan and its leadership.
• Di Er Meng explained that later Amon leaders centralized authority until the current leader turned nearly all clansmen into his avatars.
• Di Er Meng said the leader then used random splitting to create independent Amons with unpredictable traits, and Mu Chen realized that Di Er Meng could be considered Amon’s child.

Di Er Meng told Mu Chen that Amon would eventually reclaim her unless she helped him grow strong enough to oppose him, and Mu Chen agreed to bind his fate to hers. As Amon watched from afar and sensed the Primal Celestial Bodies nearing awakening, Di Er Meng revealed that her method was to turn Mu Chen into Amon.

• Di Er Meng explained that Amon reclaimed special entities who failed to overthrow him and warned that helping Mu Chen reach the Three-God Realm would make them enemies of Amon.
• Mu Chen agreed to stand with Di Er Meng, and she explained that hidden places could block Amon's perception and that inheriting the Endless Radiance Body could help Mu Chen contend against him.
• Amon watched from a mountain outside Heart Devil City and observed that the Primal Celestial Bodies might awaken and seek inheritors as the final battle approached.
• Mu Chen confirmed he wanted Di Er Meng's method, and she told him to turn her into his avatar—or turn himself into Amon.

Mu Chen agreed to make Di Er Meng his avatar so she could escape Amon’s control and help him comprehend the Three-God Realm. After enduring the Amons’ collective will and mental contamination during their fusion, Mu Chen mastered the divine ability and faintly touched the Unity Realm.

• Di Er Meng explained that becoming Mu Chen’s avatar would free her from Amon but make Mu Chen a contender for the Amon Clan leader’s position.
• Mu Chen promised to treat Di Er Meng as an independent individual and agreed to begin the fusion.
• Di Er Meng fused with Mu Chen, and the Amons’ collective will flooded his mind with Whispers and mental contamination.
• Mu Chen endured the impact as his spiritual energy changed and his body developed temporary, writhing abnormalities.
• After half a month, the Whispers and abnormalities disappeared, and Mu Chen mastered the Three-God Realm, surpassing the former Heavenly Emperor’s understanding of it.

Mu Chen split off two independent avatars and used Di Er Meng’s Supreme Spirit Liquid to restore all three bodies to their former strength. He established their shared identity and vowed to help Di Er Meng break free from the Amon Family.

• Di Er Meng warned Mu Chen about the dangers of highly independent avatars, and he created black-haired and white-haired versions of himself.
• Di Er Meng gave Mu Chen a vast supply of Supreme Spirit Liquid that she had secretly saved from the Amon Clan.
• Mu Chen and his two avatars absorbed the liquid, regained their strength, and severed the control connecting them so each could act independently.
• Mu Chen, his avatars, and Di Er Meng discussed whether they were all the Main Body, while Di Er Meng tested Mu Chen’s mental state by asking who would date Luo Li.
• Di Er Meng admitted she did not understand the Amon Family completely, and Mu Chen promised to help her escape it.

Mu Chen worried that his clones might become separate people and that merging with them would erase one consciousness, but Di Er Meng helped him reconsider the arrangement. He sent his True Dragon and True Phoenix incarnations to explore the Three Beast Venerables’ secret realm and decided to cultivate within the Budu Realm until he mastered the Endless Radiance Body.

• Mu Chen merged his white-clothed clone with the ancient light and shadow in the Stone Lotus, then voiced his fears about the clone’s identity and future consciousness merger to Di Er Meng.
• Di Er Meng explained that both the Main Body and the clone could view their division of labor as advantageous, and gave Mu Chen the Great Vehicle Winning Studies manual.
• Di Er Meng reminded Mu Chen about the secret-realm key, and Mu Chen separated his Dragon Spirit and Phoenix Spirit into True Dragon and True Phoenix incarnations.
• True Phoenix Mu Chen opened a spatial vortex, and True Dragon Mu Chen and True Phoenix Mu Chen used the token to enter the Three Beast Venerables’ secret realm.
• Mu Chen left his black clone in the Ancestral Land to study the manual and returned to the clan, where he planned to cultivate until he mastered the Endless Radiance Body.

Hun Zhang killed the newly born Blood Devil Emperor, while Hun Yufeng used the emperor’s blood and soul to refine a pill and swallowed it to pursue the Heavenly Sovereign realm.
