Chapter Summaries

Sean accepted Leis Jing’s offer of future help in exchange for a favor, then tested Mekodo’s remarkable concealment talent. After finding Mekodo with a deliberate search, Sean asked whether he could learn the ability, hoping it would help him reach the Anlanda Material Plane unnoticed.

• Leis Jing gave Sean a jar containing about a hundred thousand drops of Sovereign's Might and asked him to help teach the Augusta Family a lesson during the next Plane War.
• Sean agreed to intervene if the Augusta Family attacked Leis Jing, but said he would not directly target their clansmen.
• Leis Jing explained Mekodo’s aura-concealing talent and took Sean to search for him in the Purple Thorn Mountain Range.
• Sean located Mekodo hidden inside a massive rock after scanning the area with Sovereign's Might.
• Sean asked Mekodo whether others could learn his talent and said he was interested in the Innate Divine Abilities of various divine beasts.

Sean obtained Mekodo’s technique for hiding inside a stone and traveled with Feizer to the Anlanda Material Plane. After Feizer summoned him in a remote desert, Sean revealed himself and surveyed the plane.

• Sean traded Mekodo a favor for a technique that used Mekodo’s Blood Essence to let someone hide inside a small stone, and Mekodo gave him a drop of Blood Essence.
• Sean stayed in the Purple Thorn Mist Sea for several hundred years, sparring with Leis Jing, then returned to the Water Element God Plane.
• Sean told Feizer to return to the Anlanda Material Plane and secretly brought his transformed body along as a black stone.
• Feizer reached the Anlanda Plane and, after confirming he was alone in a desert, used Sean’s technique to summon him from the stone.
• Sean emerged in the Anlanda Material Plane and spread his divine sense across the entire plane.

Sean discovered that the Sovereign Magic Array on Wuyou Island might let the Soul Pearl absorb its Sovereign power, but he needed to enter and leave without alerting the Bright Master. He had Breler study the array, learned to simulate and break it, and asked him to devise a way to preserve it undisturbed.

• Sean found the Sovereign Magic Array on Wuyou Island and sensed that the Soul Pearl might be able to absorb its power, while thousands of Lord God Soldiers and thirty-six Twelve-Winged Divine Angels guarded the area.
• Sean told Feizer to keep their relationship secret, then went to study the array and summoned Breler to examine a simulated version.
• After several centuries, Breler figured out how to break the array, and Sean began learning its principles so he could replicate and test it.
• Ten thousand years later, Sean successfully simulated and broke the Anlanda Material Plane's Sovereign Magic Array with Breler's guidance.
• Breler explained that concealing the energy fluctuations required another array, and Sean asked whether the original could restore itself after he entered and left.
• Sean offered Breler one hundred drops of Light and Dark Sovereign Power to solve the far more difficult problem.

Sean verified that he could implant Soul Seeds into angels connected to the Angel Rebirth Pool, then waited for Breler to finish studying the Magic Array. After Breler found a way for Sean to enter and leave it without immediate collapse, Sean prepared to act in the Bright God Plane.

• Sean traveled to the Dark God Plane, visited the Dark Lord God, and searched Night Abyss Mansion for Dark Angels.
• Sean used Soul Poison to confirm that he could implant Soul Seeds into angels linked to the Rebirth Pool, then returned to the Qingyuan Material Plane.
• One hundred thousand years later, Breler told Sean he had found a way to preserve the Magic Array's operation after Sean entered and left it.
• Sean rewarded Breler with Sovereign's Might and told Carl that they could make their move in the Bright God Plane.

Sean had Cassius’s divine clone killed to gain the angel’s trust, then posed as an envoy to drug the Lord God Soldiers guarding the Magic Array. He entered its core and found the Death Lord Godhead, leaving the soldiers unconscious.

• Six experts attacked Cassius’s Life Divine Clone on Cuyue Island and killed him, prompting Cassius to vow revenge.
• Sean approached Cassius after the other God-level beings left and Soul Seeded him, ordering him to use the name Shi Hao for Sean’s cover identity.
• Cassius and an angel brought Sean to Wuyou Island, where he introduced himself as a newly dispatched envoy and offered the soldiers food and wine.
• Sean used the drugged food and hidden soul fluctuations to make the soldiers fall asleep, then concealed the energy disturbances around the Lord God Magic Array.
• Sean entered the Magic Array’s core and opened a box containing the Death Lord Godhead.

Sean obtained the Sovereign Spark in the Anlanda Material Plane and learned from its former owner’s message that Augusta might pursue him if he refined it. After returning to the Qingyuan Material Plane, Sean prepared to refine it, and the Laws of the World descended.

• Sean stored the Sovereign Spark and discovered a message from the dead Lord God inside a Soul Defense Lord God Artifact.
• The message warned Sean about Augusta, explained the limits on where Lord Gods could travel, and revealed that the former owner had been a Nether Scorpion seeking revenge.
• Sean repaired Fister’s Magic Array, remained with the God-level experts for several months, then left Anlanda and returned to the Qingyuan Material Plane.
• Sean invited the plane’s God-level and Saint Domain experts to a feast, waited until they fell asleep, and took the Sovereign Spark into the depths of the South Sea.
• Sean dripped his blood onto the Sovereign Spark, and the Laws of the World descended.

Sean became a Death Lord God and tested his new power, then considered how to hide his identity and protect himself from Augusta and the Four Divine Beasts. He confirmed that his mysterious short spear was a Supreme God Relic.

• The Sovereign Spark entered Sean, granting him Lord God status and Willpower while the Soul Pearl slowly absorbed Lord God Might.
• Sean tested his Lord God abilities, sensed across countless Material Planes, and received immense Faith Power.
• Sean decided to conceal his identity because Augusta and other Lord Gods might believe the Death Sovereign Spark belonged to Augusta.
• Sean weighed his chances against Augusta and the Four Divine Beasts, concluding that he needed greater strength or a powerful backer.
• Sean struck the mysterious Short Spear with Lord God power and confirmed that it was a Supreme God Relic.

After becoming a Sovereign, Sean considered how to find the Supreme God Appraisal while keeping his mission secret. He sent Breler to the Dark God Plane under protection, then traveled to the Netherworld to investigate.

• Sean realized Augusta had completed the fifth Supreme God Mission and that his Destruction Attribute Supreme God Relic was meant for the sixth, but he worried about finding the Supreme God Appraisal without exposing himself.
• Sean returned to his palace, kept his new Sovereign status secret from his guests, and continued feeding Willpower to the Soul Pearl to reveal memories of past Sovereigns and Supreme God Relic battles.
• Breler told Sean he planned to return to the Dark God Plane, and Sean arranged for two Seven-Star Demons to protect him.
• Ten years later, Sean sent his Death Lord God clone and Saint Domain True Body into seclusion, left his Light divine clone to manage the Qingyuan Material Plane, and took his Life Divine Clone to the Netherworld.
• Sean arrived at the Netherworld's Undead Sacred Mountain and watched bandits attack a small Metal Life near North Skeleton Prefecture, where one of them caught his attention.

Sean rescued Parhaus and his brother from a bandit attack after recognizing Parhaus’s exceptional Water Law talent. He took Parhaus as his disciple and set out to give him opportunities to grow through dangerous trials.

• Bandits ambushed Rovi’s caravan, and Parhaus protected his Wind Element brother while fighting off attackers.
• Sean recognized Parhaus’s fused Water Law abilities and killed the bandits with a devastating display of Light Law.

• Sean offered Parhaus a Soul Defense Divine Artifact and invited him to follow as a disciple, urging him to keep adventuring and cultivating.
• Parhaus accepted Sean as his master, and Sean revealed his name before preparing to take him somewhere for life-and-death training.

Sean left Parhaus at the Nether Hotel to grow stronger, then traveled to Blood Dragon Valley to pursue the Four Divine Beasts Family soldiers who had once tried to kill him. He found some of his targets but struggled to plan a discreet attack without drawing the family’s or a Sovereign’s attention.

• Sean brought Parhaus to the Nether Hotel, where the Death Sovereign agreed to let him work and train among powerful water-element experts.
• After a hundred years at the hotel, Parhaus became a Highgod, and Sean told him to stay until he achieved the Fourth Fusion before setting out on his own.
• Sean left Nether Mountain and traveled across the Nether Continent toward Blood Dragon Valley.
• Sean detected several soldiers he recognized from Buweit’s group but stopped far from the valley to avoid trespassing on the Four Divine Beasts Family’s territory.
• Sean considered how to identify and eliminate his targets without alerting the family or attracting a Sovereign’s attention, but he could not devise a safe plan.

Sean sought Bach Ashcroft’s help in attacking the Four Divine Beasts Family, but Bach refused because his clan could not withstand a Lord God clan. Sean summoned Bach to the Qingyuan Material Plane, where he revealed that he was a Lord God and reopened the discussion.

• Sean chose the Nether Snake family as a potential ally against the Four Divine Beasts Family and traveled to its headquarters to meet Bach Ashcroft.
• Sean asked Bach to help kill members of the Four Divine Beasts Family, but Bach refused despite his desire to avenge his children, fearing his clan would be destroyed.
• Sean gave Bach five hundred drops of Sovereign's Might and told him to travel to the Qingyuan Material Plane, promising that he would find an answer to his predicament there.
• Bach arrived in Azure Origin City, where Sean asked whether his Death Rule divine clone and Saint Domain True Body were present.
• Sean unleashed Death Sovereign Power, revealing that he was a Lord God, and told Bach they could now discuss the matter properly.

Sean recruited Bach and the Nether Serpent family to target selected members of the Four Divine Beasts Family, while seeking information that could help him find Buweit in Space Turbulence. Bach agreed and revealed that a divine beast once contracted by Buweit might provide a way to locate him; Sean left him to investigate and arranged a refuge for Bach’s family.

• Sean revealed that he was a Mid-level Lord God and offered Bach Sovereign's Might in exchange for the Nether Serpent family’s help targeting specific members of the Four Divine Beasts Family.
• Bach demonstrated his Soul Annihilation ability, and Sean judged it powerful enough to kill an ordinary Asura and injure a peak Asura.
• Bach explained that Buweit had been exiled into Space Turbulence and that his informant within the Four Divine Beasts Family might uncover more information.
• Bach said Buweit had once contracted a divine beast whose soul connection could help Sean locate him, and agreed to have his informant investigate.
• Bach agreed to work with Sean on the condition that his family be protected if the conflict escalated, so Sean offered to shelter its core members in the Fenglan Material Plane.

Sean bound Bach to secrecy and ordered him to investigate Buweit's contracted divine beast while keeping his strongest divine clone nearby. To strengthen the Nether Serpent family without recruiting known God Plane experts, Sean began searching Material Plane prisons for powerful fighters and left Kasim under Bach's command.

• Sean placed a Soul restriction on Bach, gave him two thousand drops of Sovereign's Might, and ordered him to identify Buweit's contracted divine beast without provoking the Four Divine Beasts Family.
• Sean decided to bolster the Nether Serpent family by recruiting powerful experts from Material Planes, where they would be unknown in the God Planes.
• Sean entered the Labir Material Plane Prison and defeated Kasim, the plane's strongest fighter, after testing his Fire Law cultivation.

• Sean continued searching other Material Planes for Six-Star and Seven-Star Highgods to strengthen the Nether Serpent family.

Sean learned that Buweit's contracted divine beast Heine might carry the rare Nether Scorpion bloodline, so he began searching for him while concealing his investigation. After mobilizing the Netherworld armies to watch city gates, Sean settled into seclusion to wait for news.

• Bach told Sean that Buweit's missing contracted beast Heine was a Highgod with a possible Nether Scorpion bloodline, and explained that Nether Scorpions grew stronger by devouring their own kind and possessed a soul attack carrying poison.
• Bach gave Sean a badge containing Heine's soul aura, and Sean chose not to ask the Death Sovereign for help so he could avoid revealing his interest in the Supreme God Relic.
• Sean recruited Asad to distribute the aura among Netherworld Army soldiers guarding cities and offered Sovereign's Might as a reward for finding Heine.
• Sean placed a Death God Puppet with Asad, then spent decades asking the leaders of the other six Netherworld regions to search their cities using the same method.
• After receiving no immediate results, Sean decided he would investigate the Teleportation Arrays if the search failed and went into seclusion on an island in the Nether Sea.

Sean tracked down Hainxi in Wuduo City and forced him to guide him through the Space Turbulence to Buweit. After Buweit dissolved Hainxi’s Master-Servant Contract, Sean enslaved Buweit with a Soul Seed and began questioning him about Nasser and the Short Spear.

• A Highgod gate guard recognized Hainxi in Wuduo City, and Sean learned through his Death God Puppet that his target had been found.
• Sean ambushed Hainxi’s bandit group, brought him to a Material Plane, and revealed himself as a Sovereign.

• Sean found Buweit and required him to dissolve his Master-Servant Contract with Hainxi before returning with them to the Qingyuan Material Plane.
• Sean implanted a Soul Seed in Buweit and asked what had happened when Buweit pursued Nasser over the Short Spear.

Sean learned how Buweit and Nasser had obtained the baleful Short Spear and arranged to investigate Alfons, a survivor of their siege. After spending time with the Death Sovereign and checking on Parhaus’s training, Sean’s plans continued as news arrived that Alfons would travel to Haiyue City.

• Buweit explained how he and Nasser killed a Mid God and seized the baleful Short Spear, which drove Nasser mad and helped advance his Destruction Rule.
• Sean had Buweit list the family members who took part in the siege, then selected Alfons as a potential target for a Soul Seed.
• Sean ordered Buweit to stay on the Material Plane and discard his marked Defense Sovereign Artifact into Space Turbulence.
• Sean told Nether Snake Bach to investigate Alfons and arrange an ambush to plant a Soul Seed in him.
• Sean returned to the Death Sovereign, learned that Parhaus had achieved the Third Fusion, and later encouraged him to continue toward the Fourth Fusion.
• Several hundred years later, a man told his father that Alfons would escort the next batch of Metal Life to Haiyue City.

Bach and Bro ambushed the Four Divine Beasts Family’s supply party, killing many Highgods and capturing Alfons for Sean. After the attack, Bach ordered the Nether Serpent family to stay hidden and avoid openly confronting the Four Divine Beasts Family.

• Bach offered Bro a chance to flee to a Material Plane, but Bro chose to stay and accepted one hundred drops of Death Sovereign Power.
• Sean instructed Bach to send the captured Alfons to a designated Material Plane and to keep Sean’s other recruits hidden while they trained.
• Bro ambushed the Four Divine Beasts Family’s Metal Life with Sovereign’s Might, killing many Highgods as onlookers recorded the battle.
• Bro pursued and captured Alfons after Alfons ran out of Sovereign’s Might, then brought him back to Bach.
• Bach took Alfons away and ordered Bro to relocate the group, monitor the Four Divine Beasts Family, and keep their identities concealed.

Sean used Alfons to learn the whereabouts of six Four Divine Beasts Family experts and devised a plan to lure Blood Dragon Valley’s clansmen out together. Alfons returned to the valley and told Dimit that a Material Plane held a Graveyard of Gods containing Sovereign Artifacts.

• After the attack in Blood Dragon Valley, the silver-haired elder ordered the scene investigated and required escorts for Metal Lives leaving the valley.
• The Nether Snake took Alfons through a plane rift to Sean, who learned that six targets had traveled to Hell and the Water Element God Plane and decided to leave them for later.
• Alfons suggested that Valley Lord Dimit could gather the other targets, but Sean needed a way to lure Dimit away from Blood Dragon Valley.
• Alfons returned to the valley and met Dimit, telling him that a Highgod from a Material Plane had revealed the location of a Graveyard of Gods containing Sovereign Artifacts.

Alfons persuaded Dimit that a Floating Shadow and a sworn testimony pointed to a Sovereign Artifact in the Canglan Material Plane, and the two traveled there with Riga. After Sean planted a Soul Seed in Dimit, he ordered him to arrange for people in Blood Dragon Valley to leave without revealing the plan.

• Alfons showed Dimit a Floating Shadow of a battle and argued that the weapon and soul defense shown could be Sovereign Artifacts.
• Dimit confirmed that a Sovereign had fallen in the Netherworld, questioned Riga under a Supreme God's oath, and decided to travel to the Canglan Material Plane with Alfons.
• Dimit, Alfons, and Riga arrived beneath the ocean in the Canglan Plane, where Sean attacked Dimit and planted a Soul Seed in him.
• Sean gave Dimit a list of people to gather and arrange to leave Blood Dragon Valley, directing him to use Seven-Star Demons who cultivated the Death Rule to control those who refused.
• Sean told Dimit to arrange for many more clansmen to leave as cover, and Dimit suggested using an attack on another Metal Life as a pretext.

Sean arranged with Dimit and the Nether Serpent family to ambush and eliminate the Four Divine Beasts Family members traveling to Haiyue City, using a large-scale dark Magic Array and Sovereign's Might. The ambush succeeded without survivors, and the Nether Snake reported the mission complete to Sean.

• Sean and Dimit planned a surprise attack on the Four Divine Beasts Family members, and Sean arranged for a large trapping Magic Array.
• Sean recruited the Nether Snake and Bro, equipped Bro with a Soul Defense Divine Artifact, and ordered the Nether Serpent family to gather Darkstone and prepare the array.
• Over several centuries, the Nether Snake acquired Darkstone, and Sean extracted tens of thousands of drops of Sovereign's Might for the operation.
• Dimit sent six Metal Lives carrying the targets toward Haiyue City, and the Nether Snake, Bro, and more than a hundred clan experts ambushed them with Soul Poison Gas and Sovereign's Might.
• The dark Magic Array trapped the surviving Four Divine Beasts Family members, and the Nether Serpent forces killed them all.
• The Nether Snake returned to Sean and reported that not a single Four Divine Beasts Family member had escaped.
