Xiao Tian Ce spared Jiu Yuan, a Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake guarding his mother’s corpse, and learned that the Heavenly Dao Sect had fallen and the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan had been driven back. Jiu Yuan gave Xiao Tian Ce the Token needed to open the sect’s Treasure Pavilion, where Xiao Tian Ce began exploring its increasingly demanding floors.

• Xiao Tian Ce reached the fifth floor, felt its pressure, and estimated that it held fewer than a thousand treasure spheres.

Xiao Tian Ce climbed the Treasure Pavilion toward its restricted upper floors, where the artifact spirit Fatty Baby tried to enforce the sect master's rules. His Spiritual Array Notes unexpectedly opened the way to the eighth floor, and he reached its collection of scrolls and divine weapons before Fatty Baby warned him against entering the ninth.

• Xiao Tian Ce found a quasi-peerless divine ability, the Great Compassion Hand, on the seventh floor, but the entrance to the eighth floor rejected him.
• Fatty Baby appeared, identified himself as the Treasure Pavilion's artifact spirit, and explained that only Heavenly Sovereigns could enter the eighth floor and only the sect master could enter the ninth.
• Xiao Tian Ce resisted the crushing pressure on the stairs, and Fatty Baby recognized the two spiritual arrays inscribed on Xiao Tian Ce's body as matching arrays used by the sect master.
• Xiao Tian Ce's Spiritual Array Notes flew from his Storage Ring, made the pressure vanish, and entered the eighth floor ahead of him.
• Xiao Tian Ce found scrolls and more than a dozen divine-artifact weapons on the eighth floor, then headed toward the ninth as Fatty Baby warned that the pressure could kill him.

Xiao Tian Ce reached the Treasure Pavilion’s Ninth Layer, where he found the Heavenly Dao Sect Master’s final writings about the sect’s doomed battle against the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan. He revealed the sect’s destruction to Fatty Baby and explained that the Treasure Pavilion’s space was about to collapse.

• Fatty Baby cried after hearing Xiao Tian Ce’s words and asked whether the Heavenly Dao Sect had truly vanished.
• Xiao Tian Ce confirmed the sect had been destroyed tens of thousands of years earlier and said the Treasure Pavilion’s space was about to collapse.

Xiao Tian Ce persuaded Fatty Baby to leave the collapsing Treasure Pavilion with him and promised to help preserve the Heavenly Dao Sect’s legacy. After receiving the restored Heavenly Dao Mirror and several powerful inheritances, Xiao Tian Ce was expelled from the pavilion, which then shrank into a tiny pagoda in his hand.

• Fatty Baby explained that the Heavenly Dao Sect had been destroyed and agreed to let Xiao Tian Ce take the Treasure Pavilion’s resources if he devoted one-third of them to rebuilding the sect.

Jiu Yuan left the abyss with Xiao Tian Ce and agreed to seek him out after returning his mother’s remains to his clan. Xiao Tian Ce learned that time had passed differently below, then headed with Jiu Yuan and Shi Hao to Holy Spirit Peak to use the Holy Spirit Pool for his Heavenly Sovereign breakthrough, where Fatty Baby warned of a powerful Extraterrestrial Demon Clan member.

• Jiu Yuan accepted Xiao Tian Ce’s contact Jade Pendant and said he would return to his clan before joining him.
• Jiu Yuan carried Xiao Tian Ce out of the abyss, where Shi Hao greeted them and Xiao Tian Ce showed him the Heavenly Dao Sect’s Treasure Pavilion.
• Jiu Yuan explained that the evil qi below isolated time and space, causing half a month to pass above while Xiao Tian Ce had spent less than a day in the depths.
• Fatty Baby directed Xiao Tian Ce, Jiu Yuan, and Shi Hao to the Holy Spirit Pool, and they traveled to Holy Spirit Peak.
• Jiu Yuan warned that the accumulated spiritual qi could make the Holy Spirit Peak arrays dangerously unstable, so Fatty Baby advised Xiao Tian Ce to use the Heavenly Dao Mirror to enter.
• Fatty Baby revealed that the sect master had killed an Extraterrestrial Demon Clan member on Holy Spirit Peak whose strength rivaled an Immortal-Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

Xiao Tian Ce entered Holy Spirit Peak with Fatty Baby to cultivate in the Holy Spirit Pool and advance toward Heavenly Sovereign. As Xiao Tian Ce absorbed the pool’s spiritual power, the spirit fish grew agitated, then fell quiet after a dragon’s cry as a huge, unidentified shadow flashed through the water.

• Xiao Tian Ce ignored Fatty Baby’s warning about a possibly surviving Extraterrestrial Demon Clan member and entered Holy Spirit Peak using the Heavenly Dao Mirror, while Jiu Yuan and Shi Hao stayed outside.
• Xiao Tian Ce and Fatty Baby reached the summit, where Fatty Baby explained that spiritual explosions released pure energy and that the Holy Spirit Pool’s spirit fish carried True Dragon bloodline.
• Fatty Baby flew into the white mist to retrieve something, and Xiao Tian Ce followed him into the pool, where the spirit fish rammed him as his body absorbed the liquid spiritual power.
• Xiao Tian Ce settled into cultivation, absorbing the pool’s energy and nearby spiritual explosions while the spirit fish grew increasingly frenzied around him.
• A dragon’s cry quieted the spirit fish, then a massive shadow flashed through the pool, and Xiao Tian Ce sensed the smell of blood.

Xiao Tian Ce faced a Spirit Fish King attack while he was on the verge of advancing to Heavenly Sovereign, but Ling'er intervened with a powerful spiritual array. As the battle continued, Xiao Tian Ce’s spiritual array broke through to the Grandmaster level.

• Xiao Tian Ce sensed blood and discovered the great-perfection Earth Sovereign Spirit Fish King charging at him while he absorbed spiritual power.
• Xiao Tian Ce decided to risk stopping his cultivation to kill the Spirit Fish King, but Ling'er awakened and told him to keep absorbing while she dealt with it.
• Ling'er trapped the Spirit Fish King in the Four Saints and Four Spirits Array, where its sacred beasts repeatedly attacked and restrained it.
• The Spirit Fish King activated its True Dragon Bloodline, transformed into a dragon-like creature, and fought back against the array’s four sacred beasts.
• Ling'er noticed that Xiao Tian Ce’s spiritual power vortices were being devoured, then saw the spiritual array in his flesh and blood reveal itself after reaching the Grandmaster level.

While Xiao Tian Ce advanced in the Holy Spirit Pool, Ling'er trapped the Spirit Fish King and discovered that Spirit Fish blood could strengthen his body. Fatty Baby explained why ordinary Spirit Fish resisted Spiritual Arrays, and Ling'er began considering another way to catch them.

• Ling'er saw that Xiao Tian Ce's body array had reached Grandmaster level as he absorbed the Holy Spirit Pool's energy, while her array kept the wounded Spirit Fish King trapped.
• The Spirit Fish King commanded a school of Spirit Fish to attack Ling'er's array core, but a Grandmaster-level defense killed one of them, and Ling'er discovered its pale golden blood could strengthen Xiao Tian Ce.
• At Xiao Tian Ce's request, Ling'er tried to gather and drain the Spirit Fish's blood, but the fish escaped her Spiritual Array by moving swiftly through the water.
• Fatty Baby explained that Spirit Fish were naturally immune to Spiritual Arrays unless an array killed them in one strike, while the Spirit Fish King's True Dragon bloodline had suppressed that trait.
• Ling'er asked Fatty Baby whether Spirit Fish were difficult to catch unless killed in a single strike, hinting that she had thought of another approach.

Ling'er used Spiritual Arrays to harvest spirit fish and strengthen Xiao Tian Ce, while Fatty Baby revealed the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle and explained the origins of the Heavenly Dao Sect's Three Treasures. As Xiao Tian Ce finished advancing, the Heavenly Sovereign Thunder Tribulation began to gather.

• Ling'er blasted spirit fish out of the Holy Spirit Pool and killed them with an overhead ice-needle array, then applied their blood to Xiao Tian Ce.
• The spirit fish blood raised Xiao Tian Ce's physical strength, and his two internal Spiritual Arrays reached the Grandmaster level.
• Fatty Baby stopped Ling'er from killing more fish and revealed the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle, which could preserve Holy Spirit Peak and its living creatures.
• Fatty Baby explained that he, the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle, and the Heavenly Dao Mirror were the Three Treasures of the Heavenly Dao, forged by the same master artifact refiner.
• Ling'er told Fatty Baby that she was the Embryo of the Plane of the Dou Qi Continent and had signed a Soul Contract with Xiao Tian Ce.
• Xiao Tian Ce's advancement neared completion as the dark clouds of the Heavenly Sovereign Thunder Tribulation appeared.

Xiao Tian Ce studied the Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body while delaying his Heavenly Sovereign Thunder Tribulation by keeping his Sovereign Sea from filling completely. After learning its dangerous cultivation method, he left the tribulation clouds raging overhead and warned them not to descend before he was ready.

• Fatty Baby and Ling'er watched the Heavenly Sovereign tribulation clouds gather as Xiao Tian Ce sensed his increased physical strength and abundant spiritual energy.
• Xiao Tian Ce realized the tribulation would not descend until his Sovereign Sea was full, so he took out the Jade Pendant containing the Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body.
• The Jade Pendant showed Xiao Tian Ce the Lord of Myriad Tribulations and revealed that the supreme dharma body required surviving ten increasingly powerful Heavenly Tribulations.
• Xiao Tian Ce learned that the Lord of Myriad Tribulations had absorbed tribulation power eight times and died fighting the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan, then decided the gathering tribulation was suitable for his first absorption.
• As the Heavenly Tribulation grew more violent, Xiao Tian Ce finished studying the dharma body, refused to fill his Sovereign Sea, and told the tribulation not to descend before he was ready.

Xiao Tian Ce began his Heavenly Sovereign thunder tribulation and used it to cultivate the Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body, while observers across the Primordial Secret Realm reacted to his dangerous breakthrough. He plunged into the tribulation clouds to face the next strike as the Western Heaven War Hall's experts debated how to deal with him.

• Xiao Tian Ce filled his Sovereign Sea, endured the first heavenly thunder strike without injury, and felt the lightning temper his spiritual energy and widen his meridians.

• Black Dragon accepted his defeat by Xiao Tian Ce, while Black Phoenix admitted he was struggling to accept their loss.
• Winter Elder, Ling Zhanzi, and Ling Jianzi worried about Xiao Tian Ce's growing power, but Winter Elder insisted that the Western Heaven War Emperor would defeat him.

Ling Zhanzi and Ling Jianzi persuaded the Winter Elder to avoid making Xiao Tian Ce an enemy and to return the captured puppet after leaving the secret realm. At Holy Spirit Peak, Xiao Tian Ce endured the ninth bolt of his Heavenly Sovereign tribulation, absorbed its power, and began to recover, leaving his survival—and advancement—within reach.

• Ling Zhanzi proposed that the Western Heaven War Hall reconcile with Xiao Tian Ce if he survived his tribulation, and Ling Jianzi backed him.
• The Winter Elder agreed not to involve the Western Heaven War Emperor for now and to return the captured puppet if Xiao Tian Ce returned Holy Son Ling Longzi.
• Xiao Tian Ce endured eight increasingly powerful tribulation bolts while tempering his body and strengthening his supreme dharma body.
• As the ninth bolt began destroying Xiao Tian Ce's body, Ling'er feared he had failed, while Fatty Baby regretted teaching him the heavenly dao myriad tribulations body.
• Xiao Tian Ce absorbed the ninth bolt's power, and his vanished body began to regenerate.

Xiao Tian Ce survived the Heavenly Sovereign Thunder Tribulation and emerged as a Heavenly Sovereign. After Fatty Baby gave him the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle and they left Holy Spirit Peak, Xiao Tian Ce prepared to rejoin Xiao Xuan and the others.

• Xiao Tian Ce recovered from the tribulation, realized the gulf between Heavenly Sovereigns and Earth Sovereigns, and reunited with Ling'er and Fatty Baby.
• Fatty Baby warned Xiao Tian Ce that cultivating the Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body carried grave risks, and Xiao Tian Ce promised to be more careful.

• Xiao Tian Ce left Holy Spirit Peak with Ling'er and Fatty Baby, then learned from Jiu Yuan and Shi Hao that the area had been quiet while they guarded the entrance.
• Fatty Baby used the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle to shrink Holy Spirit Peak and store it, then gave the bottle to Xiao Tian Ce for safekeeping on behalf of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
• Xiao Tian Ce hung the bottle at his waist, gathered Ling'er and Fatty Baby, and set out to meet Xiao Xuan and the others.

Xiao Yan reunited with Gu Xun'er in the Primordial Secret Realm, then left to pursue his own path while she returned with Xiao Tian Ce's group. In Luoshui City, Xiao Tian Ce secured Heavenly Net's release, but the Western Heaven War Emperor arrived and challenged him to a fight.

• Xiao Yan told Gu Xun'er he had advanced to Lower Earthly Sovereign after finding a Heavenly Sovereign's remains, and reassured her that Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun were safe.
• Gu Xun'er gave Xiao Yan Spiritual Array Jade Pendants and let him leave, while Xiao Tian Ce and the others departed the collapsing secret realm with her.
• In Luoshui City, Ling Zhanzi and Ling Feizi agreed to return Heavenly Net after Xiao Tian Ce released the sealed Ling Longzi.
• Xiao Tian Ce welcomed Heavenly Net back and declared his grudge with the Western Heaven War Hall ended, but the Western Heaven War Emperor appeared before Ling Zhanzi could respond.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor mocked Xiao Tian Ce's strength and unleashed his aura, but Xiao Tian Ce remained unfazed and invited him to attack.

Xiao Tian Ce fought the Western Heaven War Emperor in the void after the Emperor came to avenge the Western Heaven War Hall’s humiliation and attempted to recruit him. Xiao Tian Ce trapped him in the Nine Dragons Ascension Array and, with Ling’er, prepared more arrays to test their strength, leaving the battle still underway.

• Xiao Tian Ce and the Western Heaven War Emperor agreed to fight in the void, while Ling Zhanzi confronted Winter Elder for bringing the Emperor despite their prior agreement.

• Xiao Tian Ce told Ling’er to prepare more Grandmaster-level spiritual arrays, and he rejected the Emperor’s offer again as their fight continued.

Xiao Tian Ce tested the Western Heaven War Emperor with increasingly powerful Spiritual Arrays, using the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade to trap him in an illusion. The Western Heaven War Emperor eventually recognized the illusion and emerged furious at Xiao Tian Ce.

• The Western Heaven War Emperor shattered Ling'er's Nine Dragons Ascension Array and challenged Xiao Tian Ce to deploy stronger arrays.
• Xiao Tian Ce had Ling'er activate a more powerful Grandmaster-level Spiritual Array, then took control and summoned the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade.
• The array's ghostly creatures drained the Western Heaven War Emperor's spiritual energy and resisted his attacks, while Xiao Tian Ce and Ling'er watched from outside.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor realized the ghosts were an illusion after stabbing himself without feeling pain, then broke free of the array.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor confronted Xiao Tian Ce and declared that he had truly angered him.

Xiao Tian Ce fought the Western Heaven War Emperor and revealed the Spiritual Array Body-Tempering Technique, prompting the War Emperor to demand that he hand it over. The War Emperor unleashed his full elder war emperor dharma body, but Xiao Tian Ce refused to yield and prepared to face him.

• Xiao Tian Ce dismissed the spiritual array and exchanged powerful blows with the Western Heaven War Emperor, matching him in physical combat.
• Xiao Tian Ce’s Spiritual Array Body-Tempering Technique healed the damage to his body, and the Western Heaven War Emperor recognized the lost art.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor offered to conceal the technique’s existence in exchange for it, then threatened Xiao Tian Ce with powerful enemies when he refused.
• Xiao Tian Ce challenged the Western Heaven War Emperor to defeat him rather than use threats, and the War Emperor vowed to cripple him without killing him.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor summoned his full elder war emperor dharma body and demanded the technique once more, but Xiao Tian Ce refused to submit.

Xiao Tian Ce endured the Western Heaven War Emperor’s increasingly powerful attacks, surviving first with his defensive spiritual array and then with the Heavenly Dao Tower. Fatty Baby revealed the tower’s defensive power and confronted the War Emperor over violating the Great Thousand Palace’s prohibition.

• The Western Heaven War Emperor unleashed War Spear Spirit Rain, and Xiao Tian Ce used Emperor Flame: Golden Lotus to melt the spears before the lotus was shattered.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor attacked with War Emperor Glazed Heaven-Shattering Finger, while Ling’er’s combined Emperor Seal Art briefly blocked it before the seal broke.
• Xiao Tian Ce’s defensive spiritual array halted the finger, but the Western Heaven War Emperor strengthened his attack with Nine Heavens War God Seal and pierced the array, injuring Xiao Tian Ce.
• Fatty Baby summoned the Heavenly Dao Tower, which absorbed the finger’s attack without damage, and explained that it was unrivaled in defense.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor recognized the Heavenly Dao Tower, and Fatty Baby emerged holding it and asked whether the War Emperor meant to violate the Great Thousand Palace’s prohibition.

The Western Heaven War Emperor backed down after Fatty Baby warned him against attacking Xiao Tian Ce, then left as a powerful figure from the Great Thousand Palace approached. Wan Feng arrived to register Xiao Tian Ce as a newly advanced Heavenly Sovereign and asked whether he would fight the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan, sacrifice his life to resist them, and join the Great Thousand Palace as a guest elder.

• Fatty Baby confronted the Western Heaven War Emperor and protected Xiao Tian Ce, while the emperor weighed the risks of attacking them.
• The Western Heaven War Emperor let Xiao Tian Ce and Fatty Baby go, and Xiao Tian Ce returned to Luoshui City.
• Fatty Baby explained that the Great Thousand Palace had detected Xiao Tian Ce's advancement and would send someone to register him.
• Wan Feng arrived, identified himself as a Great Thousand Palace branch steward, and praised Xiao Tian Ce's potential.
• Wan Feng asked Xiao Tian Ce three questions about fighting the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan, giving his life to resist them, and joining the Great Thousand Palace as a guest elder.

Xiao Tian Ce joined the Great Thousand Palace as a guest elder after his Demon Slaying Token revealed strength comparable to an early-stage Immortal-Grade Heavenly Sovereign. Back in Luoshui City, he reviewed his gains and prepared for his companions to travel, then asked Wan Sui about his connection to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

• Wan Feng explained the Great Thousand Palace’s guest elder benefits and confirmed that it would not interfere in Xiao Tian Ce’s grudges, and Xiao Tian Ce accepted the invitation.
• Xiao Tian Ce activated his Demon Slaying Token, which showed that his physical strength could contend with an early-stage Immortal-Grade Heavenly Sovereign, and Wan Feng welcomed him into the Great Thousand Palace.
• Wan Feng left to return to his duties, and Xiao Tian Ce’s group rested in Luoshui City while Xiao Tian Ce reflected on his gains from the Primordial Secret Realm.
• Heavenly Net asked to travel the Great Thousand World, and Xiao Tian Ce gave him a modified Positioning Jade Pendant, puppet-upgrade materials, and advice to gather more materials and protect himself.
• Wan Sui came to offer the three favors he owed Xiao Tian Ce, who recalled that Wan Sui had said he was a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Xiao Tian Ce advised Wan Sui to delay rebuilding the Heavenly Dao Sect until he could offer protection, while Fatty Baby agreed that Wan Sui was not yet strong enough to defend it. At a banquet the next day, Luo Tianshen revealed that the Blood God Clan had withdrawn and compensated the Luo God Clan, and Xiao Tian Ce urged him to keep the resources to prepare for future threats.

• Xiao Tian Ce asked Wan Sui about his plans, and Wan Sui explained that he hoped to revive the Heavenly Dao Sect on the Heavenly Azure Continent using Spirit Sword Mountain as its foundation.
• Xiao Tian Ce suggested that Wan Sui wait until Xiao Tian Ce had established his own faction before rebuilding the Heavenly Dao Sect, and Wan Sui left to consider the proposal.
• Xiao Tian Ce and Fatty Baby agreed to hold back the promised thirty percent of the Heavenly Dao Sect's resources because Wan Sui could not yet protect them, and Fatty Baby began calling Xiao Tian Ce Little Mister.
• Luo Tianshen and Luo Yang hosted a banquet for Xiao Tian Ce, where Luo Tianshen announced that the Blood God Clan had withdrawn its troops, returned occupied territory, and left compensation.
• Xiao Tian Ce refused Luo Tianshen's offer of the compensation, warning that the Blood God Clan might threaten the Luo God Clan again after he left the Western Heaven Continent.

Xiao Tian Ce refined Liu Ming’s corpse into a Heavenly Demon Puppet for Liu Changkong and uncovered the remnant soul Liu Ming had hidden inside it. Liu Changkong then reported finding Zi Yan, Tomb Spirit, two people within the True Phoenix Clan’s ancestral grounds, and a Ninth-Grade Sovereign whom Xiao Tian Ce believed was Huai En, leaving Xiao Tian Ce ready to bring them back.

• At the Luoshui City banquet, Xiao Xuan secured Luo Tianshen’s promise that the Luo God Clan would join Xiao Tian Ce’s future force, and the Sky Dome Academy President departed with his people.
• Liu Changkong asked to visit the Dead Soul Continent, and Xiao Tian Ce agreed to refine Liu Ming’s corpse into a Heavenly Demon Puppet for him.
• While refining the corpse, Xiao Tian Ce discovered and destroyed Liu Ming’s hidden remnant soul, then completed an Upper Rank Earth Sovereign puppet five days later.
• Liu Changkong reported that Zi Yan was with the Northern Nether Dragon Kun, Tomb Spirit was a guest elder of the Four Seas Commerce Association, two others were in the True Phoenix Clan’s ancestral grounds, and a Ninth-Grade Sovereign had appeared near the Commerce Continent.
• Xiao Tian Ce identified the unknown Ninth-Grade Sovereign as likely Huai En, ordered his people to keep watch, and cautioned Liu Changkong before he departed for the Dead Soul Continent.
• Xiao Tian Ce rejoined Xiao Xuan, Gu Xun'er, and Xiao Tian Ming, learned that nearby forces had sent gifts, and asked whether any contained Sovereign Spirit Liquid.

Xiao Tian Ce prepared to leave the Western Heaven Continent to search for his missing companions, while protecting the Luo God Clan and giving Heavenly Net Sovereign Spirit Liquid for his travels. At the chapter’s end, Tomb Spirit, now a guest elder of the Four Seas Commerce Association, asked its president whether he had found news of Xiao Tian Ce and the others.

• Xiao Xuan told Xiao Tian Ce that the Western Heaven Continent’s powers had given them nearly three hundred million drops of Sovereign Spirit Liquid, and Xiao Tian Ce set aside a hundred million for Heavenly Net.

• Tomb Spirit recalled how he had been rescued, sold into slavery, and eventually become a guest elder of the Four Seas Commerce Association after recovering his cultivation.
• Tong Sihai summoned Tomb Spirit, who asked whether the president had found news of Xiao Tian Ce and the others.

Tomb Spirit refused Tong Sihai’s pressure to stay with the Four Seas Commerce Association, while Tong Sihai investigated possible companions and learned of a powerful newcomer. On a nearby island, Huai En recovered from his injuries and heard that the Island Master had returned.

• Tomb Spirit told Tong Sihai he still wanted to find his companions and could not remain with the Four Seas Commerce Association forever.
• Tong Sihai warned Tomb Spirit that the search had failed, then reconsidered when Tomb Spirit said he was not among the top three strongest in his group.
• Tong Sihai’s masked agents reported a formidable peak ninth-grade sovereign on the Commerce Continent, but the Positioning Jade Pendant had not reacted to him.
• An agent suggested Tomb Spirit’s companions might be participating in the Primordial Secret Realm trial on the Western Heaven Continent, and Tong Sihai ordered the agents to report when Jing Yan and the others returned.
• Huai En recovered on an island, lamented losing his Positioning Jade Pendant, and learned from a little girl that the Island Master and the others had returned from the Heavenly Net Continent.

Huai En reunited with Xiao Tian Ce and his companions after they tracked his Positioning Jade Pendant to the sea near White Night Island. Xiao Tian Ce learned how Huai En had driven off a Lower Earthly Sovereign and decided to stay with him until the attacker returned, while Xiao Xuan and Gu Xun'er continued to the Four Seas Commerce Association.

• The Island Lord told Huai En that Xiao Tian Ce had become a Heavenly Sovereign and was safe with Xiao Xuan and Gu Xun'er.
• Xiao Tian Ce retrieved Huai En's Positioning Jade Pendant from the sea, and Huai En soon appeared to reunite with his teacher and companions.
