After awakening from a century-long coma, Xiao Tian Ce reunited with the Xiao Clan and learned that Hun Tiandi had stolen the nihility devouring flame from him. He realized Xiao Xuan was considering gathering the clan’s Dou Di bloodline to pursue a breakthrough, and resolved to stop him from exhausting it.

• Xiao Tian Ce woke after a hundred years unconscious, and a teenage boy alerted the Xiao Clan that he had recovered.
• Xiao Xuan and the clan elders welcomed Xiao Tian Ce, who explained that Hun Tiandi had ambushed him and stolen the nihility devouring flame.
• Xiao Xuan grew furious when he learned Hun Tiandi had taken the Heavenly Flame, while Xiao Tian Ce declined an offer to find him another one.
• Xiao Xuan told Xiao Tian Ce to rest and hinted at a plan to restore the Xiao Clan’s former glory.
• After the others left, Xiao Tian Ce realized Xiao Xuan planned to gather the clan’s Dou Di bloodline and decided to prevent him from using it up.

After awakening, Xiao Tian Ce accepted his transmigration and spent three years relearning every Dou Technique in his collection. Xiao Xuan then summoned him to discuss a plan to gather the Xiao Clan’s bloodline power and break through to the Dou Di Realm.

• Xiao Tian Ce explored Heavenly Strategy Manor and vowed to lead the Xiao Clan to the pinnacle of the Dou Qi Continent.
• Xiao Tian Ce sealed his cultivation and began practicing his Dou Techniques from Yellow Tier upward.
• Xiao Tian Ce spent three years mastering every Dou Technique in his library.
• Xiao Xuan summoned Xiao Tian Ce, who confirmed that he had spent the past three years training rather than increasing his cultivation.
• Xiao Xuan explained his fear that the Xiao Clan would lose its strength and proposed concentrating the clan’s bloodline power in himself to attempt a breakthrough to the Dou Di Realm.

Xiao Tian Ce opposed Xiao Xuan's plan to extract the Xiao Clan's bloodline power for a breakthrough with less than a ten-percent chance of success. Xiao Xuan agreed to let Tian Ce's branch leave the Xiao Realm in ten years and entrusted him with the clan's future if the attempt failed.

• Xiao Xuan told Xiao Tian Ce that he had been unable to advance beyond nine-star Peak Dou Sheng and believed concentrating the clan's bloodline power could help him become a Dou Di, though his odds were below ten percent.
• Xiao Tian Ce rejected the plan, warning that failure would leave the Xiao Clan weakened and vulnerable after its members lost their bloodline power and cultivation.
• Xiao Tian Ce drew his sword and challenged Xiao Xuan to kill him first, but Xiao Xuan could not bring himself to attack and abandoned the confrontation.
• Xiao Tian Ce explained that he wanted to preserve a path for the Xiao Clan to survive rather than entrust its fate to Xiao Xuan's unlikely success.
• Xiao Xuan agreed to let Xiao Tian Ce's branch leave the Xiao Realm in ten years with clan resources, and asked him to return if Xiao Xuan succeeded or lead the clan if he failed.
• Xiao Tian Ce promised to shoulder the clan's future if necessary, urged Xiao Xuan to remember that surviving left room for renewal, and vanished.

Xiao Tian Ce refused Xiao Xuan’s plan to gather the Xiao Clan’s bloodline power for a risky attempt at reaching the Dou Di realm and secured permission to move his branch out of the Xiao Realm. After hearing how weak and mistreated the branch had become during his century-long coma, he demanded to know whether Xiao Xuan had ignored the abuse.

• Xiao Tian Ce concluded that Xiao Xuan would not abandon his plan, so he began preparing to relocate his branch and secretly build its strength.
• Xiao Tian Ce summoned Xiao Chun, Xiao Tian Ming, and Xiao Qing, then told them he had rejected Xiao Xuan’s proposal because the chance of success was too low.
• Xiao Tian Ce explained that Xiao Xuan had agreed to let the branch leave within ten years and provide it with the clan’s resources.
• Xiao Tian Ming reported that the branch had only four Dou Sheng experts, along with twenty-one Dou Zun, seventy-five Dou Zong, and weaker members below them.
• Xiao Chun said the clan had repeatedly sent their branch to face dangerous missions while Xiao Tian Ce was unconscious, and Xiao Tian Ce angrily asked whether Xiao Xuan had ignored their suffering.

Xiao Tian Ce planned a secret refuge for his branch in case Xiao Xuan failed to become Dou Di, while preparing to relocate the clan’s strongest members. He resumed alchemy, reached the peak of the Spirit Realm in soul power, and arrived to meet the gathered Dou Zun.

• Xiao Tian Ming explained that Xiao Xuan had been injured while avenging Xiao Tian Ce, prompting other Xiao Clan branches to target their branch.
• Xiao Tian Ce ordered Xiao Tian Ming to choose two little-known clansmen below Dou Zong to establish a force with no apparent connection to the Xiao Clan.
• Xiao Tian Ce planned to train the branch’s Dou Zun and above, move the clansmen out of the Xiao Realm in five years, and erase traces of their departure with Xiao Xuan’s help.

• Xiao Qing brought Xiao Tian Ce to White Tiger Hall, where twenty-one Dou Zun greeted him as Family Head.

Xiao Tian Ce organized twenty-one Dou Zun experts into the Shadow Secret Guard and began preparing to move Xiao clan members out of the Xiao Realm. He asked Xiao Xuan whether he truly intended to pursue the Dou Di realm, and Xiao Xuan reaffirmed his resolve to risk everything for the clan.

• Xiao Tian Ce addressed the twenty-one Dou Zun experts and told them to disappear from public view as the Xiao clan prepared to leave the Xiao Realm.
• Xiao Qing divided the experts into three teams led by Xiao Chengyun, Xiao Hua, and Xiao Donglai, and Xiao Tian Ce named them the Shadow Secret Guard.
• Xiao Tian Ce ordered the first team to leave with him the next day and told Xiao Qing to accompany them.
• Xiao Tian Ce visited Xiao Xuan and said he had a plan that required his cooperation, which Xiao Xuan readily promised.
• Xiao Tian Ce asked whether Xiao Xuan had to attempt becoming a Dou Di, and Xiao Xuan declared that he would stake everything to strengthen the Xiao Clan.

Xiao Tian Ce asked Xiao Xuan to stage his branch's deaths so they could escape the Xiao Realm if Xiao Xuan failed to break through. Xiao Xuan agreed and revealed he knew about the need for origin qi and the Tou She Ancient God's cave abode, but intended to pursue the breakthrough on his own terms.

• Xiao Tian Ce explained that he wanted Xiao Xuan to fake killing him and his branch so they could secretly escape a possible attack by the Hun Clan.
• Xiao Tian Ce warned that Nihility Devouring Flame had once reached at least eight-star Dou Sheng and might have recovered under the Hun Clan's support.
• Xiao Xuan agreed to the plan and gave Xiao Tian Ce a secret art scroll and a jade pendant containing a sliver of his soul, so his body could be recovered and made into a Heavenly Demon Puppet if he died.
• Xiao Tian Ce urged Xiao Xuan to reconsider the breakthrough, warning that origin qi was necessary, but Xiao Xuan said he knew and could also seek the Tou She Ancient God's cave abode.
• Xiao Tian Ce bowed and wished Xiao Xuan success, and Xiao Xuan teased him about giving up his branch's Dou Di bloodline power.

Xiao Tian Ce agreed to offer his branch’s bloodline power to help Xiao Xuan pursue a breakthrough, but Xiao Xuan declined and promised to consider safeguards. Xiao Tian Ce then created a new hidden space for his branch and named it Heaven Beyond.

• Xiao Tian Ce offered Xiao Xuan the bloodline power of his entire branch, including his own god-grade bloodline, to aid Xiao Xuan’s attempt to reach the Dou Di realm.
• Xiao Xuan refused the offer, saying the other branches’ bloodline power was enough, and promised to consider ways to protect Xiao Tian Ce’s branch.
• The next morning, Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Qing led Xiao Donglai and the first squad to a lake near the Heavenly Eye Mountain Range.
• Xiao Tian Ce spent three days creating a vast habitable space modeled on the Xiao Realm, then gave the others jade pendants that could open its spatial gate.
• Xiao Tian Ce declared that the new space would be their home and named it Heaven Beyond.

Xiao Tian Ce assigned Xiao Qing tasks to strengthen their branch during the ten years before Xiao Xuan’s planned breakthrough. Meanwhile, Xiao Xuan visited Gu Yuan in the Ancient Realm, where Gu Yuan confronted him about gathering the Xiao Clan’s bloodline power.

• Xiao Qing analyzed the risks surrounding Xiao Xuan’s breakthrough and identified the next ten years as a chance for their branch to grow in secret.
• Xiao Tian Ce instructed Xiao Qing to recruit talented clansmen, gather resources, search for ruins and heavenly flames, monitor the Central Plains and Soul Hall, find cultivators to support, and establish an intelligence organization.
• Xiao Tian Ce summoned seven others to begin special training after Xiao Qing left.
• Xiao Xuan arrived uninvited in the Ancient Realm, and Gu Yuan invited him into his residence after objecting to his intrusion.
• Gu Yuan asked Xiao Xuan about his plan to gather the Xiao Clan members’ bloodline power for a breakthrough to the Dou Di realm.

Xiao Xuan asked Gu Yuan to join forces against the Hun Clan in case Xiao Xuan failed to break through to the Dou Di realm and the Hun Clan attacked his weakened clan. He offered to trade the Nihility Devouring Flame for the Gu Clan’s Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame if they captured it, and the chapter ended with Gu Yuan considering the proposal.

• Xiao Xuan told Gu Yuan that he planned to attempt a breakthrough to the Dou Di realm and feared the Hun Clan would target the Xiao Clan if he failed.

• Xiao Xuan offered to exchange the Nihility Devouring Flame for the Gu Clan’s Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame if they captured it.

Xiao Xuan secured Gu Yuan’s cooperation for his attempt to reach the Dou Di Realm, while Xiao Tian Ce oversaw the new Luo Network and learned of a secret realm tied to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix. The chapter ended with Xiao Tian Ce asking how many people knew about the secret realm, and Xiao Qing assuring him she had sealed off the information.

• Xiao Xuan persuaded Gu Yuan to cooperate with his attempt to break through to the Dou Di Realm, and Gu Yuan agreed to help.
• Xiao Tian Ce spent three months reinforcing Heaven Beyond’s spatial structure and deepening his control over space.
• Xiao Qing returned and explained that she had built the Luo Network’s ranks and recruited more than a dozen Dou Zong and two One-Star Dou Zun.
• Xiao Tian Ce told Xiao Qing to keep the Luo Network secret, especially from the Hall of Souls, and to establish the public-facing Heavenly Secret Tower.
• Xiao Qing gave Xiao Tian Ce a report about a secret realm connected to the vanished Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, and said she had sealed off the information.

Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Qing entered a secret realm they believed belonged to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenixes and began facing its defenses. After surviving the first trap, they were sealed inside an arena where a Gold Lion beast puppet appeared.

• Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Qing traveled to the secret realm in the Beast Region and entered through its hidden entrance.

• Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Qing entered a vast arena, where the gate shut and a light barrier sealed them inside.
• A dead Gold Lion emerged from beneath the stands, and Xiao Tian Ce identified it as a beast puppet made for combat practice.

Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Qing collected the beast puppets guarding the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm and discovered a medicinal garden filled with rare herbs. Xiao Tian Ce recognized a Ten-Thousand-Year Green Lotus and the green lotus core flame, which attacked him and then took the form of a child demanding to know who he was.

• Xiao Qing restrained the Gold Lion beast puppet, erased its control soul power, and stored it in her ring after Xiao Tian Ce asked her to preserve it.

• The flame attacked Xiao Tian Ce, transformed into a child, and asked who he was and why he had disturbed its slumber.

Xiao Tian Ce subdued the sentient Green Lotus Core Flame and named him Xiao Du Ming before continuing to explore the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm. At the Treasure Pavilion, he encountered Huang Jiuji, the last living member of the Heavenly Huang Clan, who recognized the visitors as descendants of the Xiao Clan.

• Xiao Tian Ce caught the Green Lotus Flame’s attack, restrained its spirit, and made it submit to him.

• Huang Jiuji revealed that the clan had cultivated the green lotus core flame and its accompanying Ten-Thousand-Year Green Lotus over many centuries.

Xiao Tian Ce agreed to help Huang Jiuji's last two Heavenly Huang Clan offspring hatch in exchange for the clan's treasures and legacy. After receiving Huang Jiuji's Storage Ring, he absorbed the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame and prepared to break through.

• Huang Jiuji explained that the Heavenly Huang Clan needed ninth grade golden pills to nurture its offspring and offered Xiao Tian Ce the secret realm's treasures and his body and cultivation in exchange for help hatching the last two eggs.
• Huang Jiuji revealed that the formation sustaining him was failing and that he had deliberately exposed the secret realm's entrance, giving it one final chance to find someone worthy.
• Xiao Tian Ce swore to devote his lifetime and the Xiao Clan's strength to helping the Heavenly Huang Clan's descendants hatch.
• Huang Jiuji gave Xiao Tian Ce his unlocked Storage Ring and told him its clan restriction would keep the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame from resisting.
• Xiao Tian Ce endured intense pain as he absorbed the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, then opened his eyes with his skin covered in bloody scabs and prepared to break through.

Xiao Tian Ce subdued the golden emperor burning heaven flame and carefully compressed his surging Dou Qi until he settled at Late Six-Star Dou Saint. After he emerged from the Treasure Pavilion, Huang Jiuji prepared to honor their agreement and pass all his cultivation to him.

• Xiao Qing told Huang Jiuji about Xiao Tian Ce's history, his god-grade bloodline, and the injuries Hun Tiandi had inflicted on him a century earlier.
• Xiao Tian Ce's aura surged as high as Eight-Star Dou Saint, but he repeatedly suppressed it until it stabilized at Late Six-Star Dou Saint.
• Xiao Tian Ce tested his new strength and the golden emperor burning heaven flame, and said he could now face an ordinary Early Eight-Star Dou Saint.
• Xiao Tian Ce left the Treasure Pavilion and greeted Huang Jiuji, who praised his cultivation and offered to bestow all his cultivation on him.

Inside the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm, Huang Jiuji agreed to pass his cultivation to Xiao Qing after Xiao Tian Ce explained how the Flame Mantra could let Huang Jiuji survive as a soul. After the transfer, the secret realm began collapsing, and Xiao Tian Ce gathered its treasures as they prepared to leave.

• Xiao Tian Ce told Huang Jiuji that the Flame Mantra and three heavenly flames could enable his soul's resurrection, and Huang Jiuji agreed to remain alive while they searched for it.

Xiao Tian Ce completed a highest-grade Heavenly Demon Puppet from Huang Jiuji’s body, reaching late-stage eight-star Dou Sheng strength. After testing its formidable defenses and attack against Xiao Qing, he looked ahead to settling accounts with Hun Tiandi.

• Xiao Tian Ce spent half a month refining Huang Jiuji’s body with precious materials, a ninth-rank magic core, his soul, and the golden emperor burning heaven flame.

• Xiao Tian Ce said he would settle accounts with Hun Tiandi in time.

Xiao Tian Ce planned to build the Luo Network and Heavenly Secret Pavilion in secret while Hun Tiandi prepared to exploit Xiao Xuan’s failed Dou Di breakthrough. After examining the Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm’s spoils, Xiao Tian Ce discovered notes on Spiritual Arrays and wondered whether their methods could be practiced in this world.

• Xiao Tian Ce told Xiao Qing to expand the Luo Network and Heavenly Secret Pavilion secretly, then continued sorting the Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm’s treasures.

• Xiao Tian Ce found a Spiritual Array Grandmaster’s notes among the secret realm’s spoils and questioned whether their techniques could be cultivated in this world.

Xiao Tian Ce studied Fengtian Dou Di’s notes on Spiritual Arrays but learned that he needed a device to convert Dou Qi into spiritual energy. After water revealed the hidden instructions for making it, he planned to return to the Xiao Realm to obtain mithril and check on Brother Xuan’s preparations.

• Xiao Tian Ce read Fengtian Dou Di’s notes and discovered that mastering Spiritual Arrays on the Dou Qi Continent required spirit realm grand perfection and a device to convert Dou Qi into spiritual energy.
• Xiao Tian Ce asked Huang Jiuji about the notes, and Huang Jiuji explained that he and the clan leader had found the scroll in a secret realm but could not use it.

• Xiao Tian Ce copied the method for making the converter and realized that only mithril was missing.
• Xiao Tian Ce decided to visit the Xiao Realm’s Treasure Pavilion for mithril and check on Brother Xuan’s preparations.

Xiao Tian Ce returned to the Xiao Realm and told Xiao Chun about the gains he and Xiao Qing had made in the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Secret Realm. He asked Xiao Chun to collect mithril for an important plan, then welcomed Xiao Xuan, who noticed Xiao Tian Ce’s increased strength and the unusual thing within him.

Xiao Tian Ce and Xiao Xuan discussed Xiao Tian Ce’s strength, Xiao Xuan’s plan to pursue Dou Di, and the Xiao Clan’s uncertain future. After Xiao Xuan vanished, Xiao Tian Ce received the mithril Xiao Chun had fetched and noticed that his uncle had been in a fight.

• Xiao Xuan recognized Xiao Tian Ce’s golden flame as a powerful child flame and praised his concealed strength as a Late Six-Star Dou Saint.
• Xiao Xuan said he would attempt to reach Dou Di and planned to leave Xiao Tian Ce the clan leader position, but Xiao Tian Ce admitted he could not protect the clan from a Nine-Star Dou Saint.
• Xiao Xuan and Xiao Tian Ce agreed to do what they could during the next ten years, and Xiao Tian Ce vowed not to waste that time.
• Xiao Tian Ce waited at Heavenly Strategy Manor, then noticed Xiao Chun return with mithril, damaged cuffs, and an unsteady aura.
• Xiao Chun said he had only exchanged a few moves with someone, and Xiao Tian Ce accepted the mithril and told him to rest.

Xiao Tian Ce learned that Xiao Tian Yun had humiliated Xiao Chun over a piece of mithril and sent his Heavenly Demon Puppet to demand that the brothers answer for it. Xiao Tian Shan agreed to apologize, but Xiao Tian Yun refused and went looking for Xiao Wu.

• Xiao Tian Ce reassured Xiao Chun, then learned from Xiao Bieli that Xiao Tian Yun had demanded the mithril and challenged Xiao Chun to withstand one move.
