Chapter Summaries

Xiao Tian Ce battled Mohe Tian and nearly defeated him with his modified Emperor Seal Art, but a late-stage saint-grade heavenly sovereign from the Maha Gu Clan intervened and took Mohe Tian away. Xiao Tian Ce then moved to join the remaining fights, prompting the Dragon Venerable and Snow Demon Elder to withdraw.

• Mohe Tian summoned the Mohe Boundless Body and attacked Xiao Tian Ce with the Maha Boundless Calamity.
• Xiao Tian Ce combined all eight seals of his modified Emperor Seal Art and overwhelmed Mohe Tian's lightning tornado.
• A figure from Mohe Tian's jade pendant shattered Xiao Tian Ce's palm seal, revealed himself as a late-stage saint-grade heavenly sovereign, and took Mohe Tian away after Xiao Tian Ce agreed not to interfere.
• Xiao Tian Ce assessed the ongoing battles and saw Ling'er frustrate the Snow Demon Elder, Jiu Yuan struggle against the Dragon Venerable, and Lin Dong battle the Western Heaven War Emperor.
• Xiao Tian Ce advanced toward the Dragon Venerable and Snow Demon Elder, who withdrew and told the Western Heaven War Emperor that their favor had been repaid.

Lin Dong and Xiao Tian Ce forced the Western Heaven War Emperor to abandon his claim on the Ice Spirit Clan, then secured an alliance between the clan and the White Jade Capital. Afterward, the Dragon Venerable followed Xiao Tian Ce and asked him to refine a Realm-Breaking Pill that could help him reach Immortal-Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

• The Dragon Venerable and Snow Demon Elder fled as Xiao Tian Ce approached with Jiu Yuan and the twelve Heavenly Demon Puppets.
• Xiao Tian Ce threatened to beat the Western Heaven War Emperor down and kill him beyond the Great Thousand World's borders, prompting the War Emperor to concede and leave the Ice Spirit Clan alone.
• Xiao Tian Ce confirmed the alliance with the Ice Spirit Clan, while Lin Dong thanked him and promised to repay his favor.
• Xiao Tian Ce declined the Ice Spirit Ancestor's banquet invitation and departed with Jiu Yuan after agreeing to discuss the alliance's details later.
• The Dragon Venerable followed Xiao Tian Ce and asked him to refine a Realm-Breaking Pill to help him advance from late-stage spirit-grade Heavenly Sovereign to Immortal-Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

Xiao Tian Ce agreed to refine a Realm-Breaking Pill for the Dragon Venerable in exchange for him joining the White Jade Capital. On the journey north, they reunited with Heavenly Net, whose discovery of earth marrow led Xiao Tian Ce to reveal a powerful Void Lightning Pool for him to explore.

• The Dragon Venerable offered his treasures for a Realm-Breaking Pill, but Xiao Tian Ce instead asked him to join the White Jade Capital.
• The Dragon Venerable agreed to serve Xiao Tian Ce after advancing, and Xiao Tian Ce promised him a pill in five years.
• Xiao Tian Ce, Jiu Yuan, and the Dragon Venerable met Heavenly Net, who described finding a secret realm with a pool of earth marrow that had rapidly increased his strength.
• Jiu Yuan and the Dragon Venerable explained earth marrow's rarity and restorative benefits, and Heavenly Net gave two gourds of it to Xiao Tian Ce.
• Xiao Tian Ce showed Heavenly Net the location of a Void Lightning Pool that could strengthen him, warned him about its dangerous lightning, and then set off with Jiu Yuan and the Dragon Venerable toward the White Jade Capital.

Xiao Tian Ce returned to Heavenly Strategy Manor and learned that Medusa was pregnant, prompting him to celebrate and plan their wedding. After Medusa reported a brief anomaly in Immortal-Slaying City's spiritual array, Xiao Tian Ce decided to investigate possible Extraterrestrial Demon activity.

• Xiao Tian Ce arrived in Capital City with Jiu Yuan and the Dragon Venerable, where Xiao Xuan and his disciples welcomed them and teased him about good news.
• Xiao Tian Ce discovered that Medusa was pregnant and joyfully discussed their child and a wedding with her.
• Medusa told Xiao Tian Ce that Immortal-Slaying City's spiritual array had briefly shown signs of activation after he left, similar to an earlier warning before an Extraterrestrial Demon invasion.
• Xiao Tian Ce agreed to hold a simpler wedding, promised to prepare powerful pregnancy-supporting medicine, and set out to consult Xiao Xuan and investigate Immortal-Slaying City.

Xiao Tian Ce confirmed that a Divine Hidden Clan scout had reached Immortal-Slaying City, signaling a likely invasion by the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan. He ordered the city to prepare for war and summoned White Jade Capital’s earth sovereign-level experts to stand by.

• Xiao Tian Ce asked Xiao Xuan to prepare a modest wedding for him and Medusa, then set out with Jiu Yuan for Immortal-Slaying City to investigate its spiritual array.
• Jiu Yuan voiced his fears about the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan, and Xiao Tian Ce promised that White Jade Capital would fight back and could call on the Great Thousand Palace for help against Heavenly Demon Emperors.
• Mo Yang explained that the Divine Hidden Clan served as scouts and that their appearance usually preceded an invasion; Xiao Tian Ce used an Image Recording Stone to confirm that a scout had touched the city’s protective array.
• Xiao Tian Ce and the others checked every Image Recording Stone and found no other scouts, but Xiao Tian Ce warned Mo Yang not to underestimate the coming invasion.
• Xiao Tian Ce ordered Immortal-Slaying City to its highest alert, required Sovereign Spirit Liquid to be kept ready at the teleportation array, and issued a White Jade Order calling all earth sovereign-level experts and above to stand by.

The four Nether Demon Emperors debated whether to attack Immortal-Slaying City before their reinforcements arrived, then chose to wait. Back in the city, Xiao Tian Ce learned that Ling'er might absorb the Great Thousand World's origin power and replace its embryo of the plane, while she hinted that she could help him prepare for the invasion.

• Ka Mo reported that White Jade Capital had defeated the True Phoenix Clan, and the four Nether Demon Emperors discussed the threat it posed.
• Ye Su urged the others to seize Immortal-Slaying City and kill Mo Yang, but Mohe decided they should wait for the Heavenly Demon Emperors to arrive.
• Xiao Tian Ce worried about the coming invasion and summoned twelve Heavenly Demon Puppets, including the mid-stage immortal-grade Heavenly Sovereign Qing Hou.
• Ling'er revealed that the Great Thousand World's embryo of the plane had likely absorbed her origin power, but she might be able to absorb its power and replace it.
• Ling'er told Xiao Tian Ce that she might need him to earn a mark on the Firmament Ranking before she could try, and she hinted that she had a way to help him face the invasion.

Xiao Tian Ce refined nine nine-pattern Realm-Breaking Pills with Ling'er protecting the area from the pill lightning. The lightning exposed Feng Ming Tian, who had secretly hidden inside Qing Hou, and destroyed him as the True Phoenix mark vanished.

• Xiao Tian Ce prepared the Yanhuang Cauldron and nearly two thousand ingredients to refine Realm-Breaking Pills, while Ling'er arranged to contain the pill lightning.
• After half a month of refining, Xiao Tian Ce formed ten pills, but the initial lightning destroyed one before Qing Hou blocked the remaining bolts.
• Xiao Tian Ce adjusted Qing Hou's position so the lightning formed nine patterns on each of the remaining nine pills, then subdued the pills as they transformed into golden dragons and tried to flee.
• The lightning above gathered into a qilin and struck Qing Hou before Xiao Tian Ce could stop it with his Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body.
• Feng Ming Tian screamed from inside Qing Hou, revealed that he had been hiding there and trying to take the puppet's body, then vanished along with the True Phoenix mark.

Xiao Tian Ce endured a three-day thunder tribulation outside Immortal-Slaying City and advanced to the early-stage immortal-grade heavenly sovereign level. Just after his breakthrough, he was ambushed by Ye Su of the Divine Flame Clan, an Extraterrestrial Demon Clan Demon Emperor, and the two began to fight.

• Feng Ming Tian truly perished as the True Phoenix mark vanished from Qing Hou, and Xiao Tian Ce absorbed the thunderbolts to temper his Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body.
• Fatty Baby told Xiao Tian Ce that his suppressed spiritual energy had triggered an early-stage immortal-grade heavenly sovereign tribulation, so Xiao Tian Ce moved outside Immortal-Slaying City to protect it.
• Xiao Tian Ce endured the three-day tribulation, advanced to the early-stage immortal-grade heavenly sovereign level, and increased his Heavenly Dao Myriad Tribulations Body to four thousand nine hundred meters.
• Ye Su ambushed Xiao Tian Ce with a black-and-red slash, but Xiao Tian Ce blocked it with a spiritual array and identified Ye Su as a Nether Demon Emperor from the Divine Flame Clan.
• Xiao Tian Ce dismissed his spiritual array and appeared behind Ye Su to punch him, forcing Ye Su to cross his arms and brace for the attack.

Xiao Tian Ce killed Nether Demon Emperor Ye Su and earned three thousand demon-slaying points, but three more Nether Demon Emperors warned that a stronger enemy would arrive within half a month. The Demon-Slaying Ranking revealed Xiao Tian Ce’s feat to the Great Thousand Palace, whose leaders realized a demon had slipped past their reconnaissance.

• Xiao Tian Ce tore off Ye Su’s arm and battered him, but Ye Su used demonic qi to restore his body and transform into a stronger form.
• Xiao Tian Ce sealed Ye Su with Ling’er’s spiritual array and burned him with the golden emperor burning heaven flame, earning three thousand demon-slaying points.
• Xiao Tian Ce burned away Ye Su’s lingering demonic qi and confronted Ye Sa, Mo Ke, and Mo Jia, who warned that a powerful demon would arrive within half a month before retreating.
• Xiao Tian Ce returned to Immortal-Slaying City and sent out more than a dozen messages as he prepared for the coming threat.
• At Great Thousand Palace headquarters, Xiao Tian Ce’s name rose on the Demon-Slaying Ranking, and Qin Tian and Lu Tong suspected Ye Su had evaded reconnaissance on the Holy Abyss Continent.

Qin Tian ordered the Great Thousand Palace and the Five Primordial Gu Clans to reinforce White Jade Capital after learning that Xiao Tian Ce had slain one Nether Demon Emperor and faced several more. As White Jade Capital's leaders gathered in Immortal-Slaying City, Xiao Tian Ce prepared them for the coming invasion by warning them about the enemy and distributing White Jade Capital's treasures.

• Qin Tian and Lu Tong considered how the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan might have bypassed the Holy Abyss Continent's reconnaissance and decided to reinforce the Northern Nether Continent.
• Lu Tong received word that Xiao Tian Ce had killed a Nether Demon Emperor, encountered three others, and might soon face stronger Demon Emperors, so Qin Tian ordered the Great Thousand Palace and the Five Primordial Gu Clans to send reinforcements.
• Xiao Tian Ce assembled White Jade Capital's city lords, tower masters, and other experts in Immortal-Slaying City and warned them that the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan could pose a greater threat than the True Phoenix Clan.
• Mo Yang reassured the gathering that reinforcements were coming, and Xiao Tian Ce cautioned everyone to choose their opponents carefully because the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan was powerful.
• Tong Sihai explained the Three Treasures of White Jade Capital, and Xiao Tian Ce distributed Spiritual Array Jade Pendants and recovery pills, assigning each expert pendants suited to their strength.

Xiao Tian Ce distributed Spiritual Array Jade Pendants and nine-pattern Realm-Breaking Pills to White Jade Capital’s defenders as they prepared for the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan’s invasion. Reinforcements arrived over the following days, but the Great Thousand Palace’s forces had not appeared when the enemy army emerged from the northern void.

• Xiao Tian Ce gave the defenders Spiritual Array Jade Pendants and allocated nine Realm-Breaking Pills to five city lords, the Dragon Venerable, Jiu Yuan, Huang Min, and the Tomb Spirit.
• Xiao Tian Ce let Medusa remain in Immortal-Slaying City and warned her that several Heavenly Demon Emperors might attack; she promised to stay safe for their unborn child.
• Lin Dong and the Ice Spirit Ancestor arrived on the third day, the Fire Spirit Clan Ancestor followed that afternoon, and Xiao Yan, Gu Xun'er, and two Heavenly Sovereigns from the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python Tribe came on the fourth day.
• Jiu Yuan's Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake Tribe arrived that evening, while no further reinforcements came before the tenth day, when contaminated spiritual energy appeared in the northern void.
• Xiao Tian Ce sensed at least five enemy auras that could pressure him, and Xiao Yan told him that Gu Xun'er had reached the spirit grade Heavenly Sovereign level.
• The Extraterrestrial Demon Clan army poured out of the shattered northern void and challenged Xiao Tian Ce to meet his death.

Xiao Tian Ce led White Jade Capital’s forces out to face an army of nearly a hundred thousand Extraterrestrial Demon Clan members and fourteen Demon Emperors. He sent his allies to fight the other enemies and confronted five Heavenly Demon Emperors himself, ending the chapter as his opening attacks failed to overpower them.

• Xiao Tian Ce rejected Wang Quan’s offer to surrender, and the mid-stage Heavenly Demon Emperor’s attack failed to break Immortal-Slaying City’s protective spiritual array.
• Jiu Yuan, Mo Yang, Huang You, Di Yi Piaoxue, Qing Hou, and the other Heavenly Sovereigns joined Xiao Tian Ce, who planned to hold back the five Heavenly Demon Emperors while his allies fought the remaining Demon Emperors.
• Xiao Tian Ce opened the array and led his forces into the air, leaving Medusa to guard Immortal-Slaying City.
• Wang Quan introduced the five Heavenly Demon Emperors as himself, Wu Ming, Wu Tian, Shi Hai, and Shi Shan, then signaled the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan to attack.
• Xiao Tian Ce struck the five with his Eight Seals as One technique, but Shi Shan’s Heavenly Demon Finger met the attack in an explosion, and Xiao Tian Ce followed with his Blazing Burning Heaven Palm.

Xiao Tian Ce trapped five Heavenly Demon Emperors in a spiritual array and fought them using his golden flames and battle array, but their combined assault pushed him hard. When Wang Quan recognized Xiao Tian Ce’s Spiritual Array Body-Tempering Technique and demanded to know where he got it, Xiao Tian Ce refused, and Wang Quan unleashed a purple-flamed attack.

• Xiao Tian Ce’s golden emperor burning heaven flame burned through Shi Hai’s demonic qi, badly injuring his arm before Shi Hai restored it.
• Xiao Tian Ce activated a confinement array, trapping himself and the five Heavenly Demon Emperors inside, then formed a battle array with his Twelve Heavenly Demon Puppets.
• The five Heavenly Demon Emperors attacked Xiao Tian Ce together; he wounded them with his Battle Intent Sword but endured a barrage of blows and was left with torn clothes and claw marks.
• Wang Quan recognized the Spiritual Array Body-Tempering Technique on Xiao Tian Ce’s body and demanded to know where he had obtained it, but Xiao Tian Ce refused.
• Wang Quan gathered demonic qi and purple flame, then invoked “Flame God: King Annihilation.”

Xiao Tian Ce fought Heavenly Demon Emperor Wang Quan and used the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame to weaken Wang Quan’s demon statue, but Shi Hai and the others intervened before he could strike a decisive blow. With Qin Tian approaching as reinforcement, Wang Quan ordered the four Heavenly Demon Emperors to form the Heavenly Demon Grand Array around Xiao Tian Ce.

• Wang Quan controlled a giant purple-flamed demon statue that injured Xiao Tian Ce, while Ling'er kept their spiritual array intact.
• Xiao Tian Ce changed tactics, coating his Battle Intent Sword with the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame and using soul power to make Wang Quan stagger.
• Shi Hai, Shi Shan, Wu Ming, and Wu Tian attacked Xiao Tian Ce together, forcing him to retreat and letting Wang Quan survive.
• Wu Tian and the others warned Wang Quan that Qin Tian and Great Thousand Palace reinforcements were approaching, and Wang Quan demanded Xiao Tian Ce submit and explain his connection to the Heavenly Dao Sect.
• Xiao Tian Ce welcomed the news of the approaching reinforcements and prepared to keep the Heavenly Demon Emperors occupied.
• Wang Quan ordered Shi Hai, Shi Shan, Wu Ming, and Wu Tian into position, and the five began forming the Heavenly Demon Grand Array.

Trapped inside the Heavenly Demon Grand Array, Xiao Tian Ce unleashed the Xiao Clan’s divine-grade bloodline and Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Transformations to break the array and overwhelm the five Heavenly Demon Emperors. He killed four of them and captured Wang Quan in golden flames, leaving Wang Quan alive but badly burned.

• Wang Quan activated the Heavenly Demon Grand Array, while Xiao Tian Ce tried to break it with the Heavenly Dao Mirror and Battle Intent Sword but was repelled and injured.
• Xiao Tian Ce refused to open the spiritual array and release the five Heavenly Demon Emperors, then revealed the Xiao Clan mark and used Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Transformations: Golden Emperor Transformation.
• Xiao Tian Ce’s strength rose to the middle stage of saint-grade heavenly sovereign, and his relentless attacks cracked and shattered the Heavenly Demon Grand Array.
• Xiao Tian Ce killed Shi Shan, Wu Ming, Wu Tian, and Shi Hai, then struck Wang Quan and sent him crashing into the spiritual array’s barrier.
• Xiao Tian Ce seized Wang Quan by the throat and burned his head with golden flames, leaving him charred as the other Heavenly Demon Emperors called for Xiao Tian Ce to release him.

Xiao Tian Ce fought Shi Hai, Shi Shan, Wu Tian, and Wu Ming while holding Wang Quan, but Shi Hai and Shi Shan sacrificed Wang Quan to summon Sheng Tian, the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor. Sheng Tian shattered Xiao Tian Ce’s spiritual array and demanded his submission, then Qin Tian and Lu Tong arrived, leaving the confrontation poised to escalate.

• Shi Hai, Shi Shan, Wu Tian, and Wu Ming attacked Xiao Tian Ce, and Shi Hai and Shi Shan tore Wang Quan’s body apart to retrieve him.
• Xiao Tian Ce fought off Wu Tian and Wu Ming with the golden emperor burning heaven flame, but Shi Shan and Shi Hai’s demonic qi gave rise to Sheng Tian, the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor.
• Sheng Tian wounded Xiao Tian Ce, shattered the spiritual array, and offered to spare everyone if Xiao Tian Ce submitted; Xiao Tian Ce refused.
• Sheng Tian called out Qin Tian, who appeared with Lu Tong and more than a dozen experts, and asked whether Sheng Tian intended to start an all-out war.

Xiao Tian Ce and White Jade Capital repelled a massive Extraterrestrial Demon Clan invasion, while Qin Tian and other Saint-Grade Heavenly Sovereigns fought the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor, who turned out to be an avatar. Xiao Tian Ce became the Great Thousand Palace's second serving Demon-Slaying King and agreed to serve as an elder, then ordered Mo Yang to care for the wounded before a celebration.

• Qin Tian, Lu Tong, and the Five Primordial Gu Clans' elders entered the void battlefield to fight the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor while Xiao Tian Ce attacked the invading army.
• Xiao Tian Ce killed four Profound Demon Emperors and more than a dozen peak Earthly Sovereigns, then used Heavenly Flames with Xiao Yan and Xun'er to cleanse the battlefield.
• After three days, the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor ended the battle and disappeared, and Qin Tian realized they had fought only his avatar.
• Qin Tian introduced Xiao Tian Ce to the surviving elders, praised his defense of the northern front, and warned that the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan could target it more often.
• Lu Tong confirmed Xiao Tian Ce had earned 29,000 Demon-Slaying Points, making him the Great Thousand Palace's second serving Demon-Slaying King, and agreed to provide metal materials he requested.
• Xiao Tian Ce agreed to become an elder of the Great Thousand Palace, then asked Mo Yang to meet the survivors' needs and arrange a banquet after their recovery.

After White Jade Capital’s victory over the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan, Xiao Tian Ce prepared to enter seclusion and assigned his allies responsibility for defending the city and strengthening its defenses. While healing his injuries, he investigated the depleted divine-grade bloodline within him and decided to exhaust what remained to learn whether it would regenerate.

• Xiao Tian Ce warned Mo Yang that the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan had opened a northern front and told him that White Jade Capital would need to help defend it, with support from the Great Thousand Palace if a major invasion came.
• Xiao Tian Ce told Mo Yang he would enter seclusion, then gathered Medusa, Xiao Xuan, Tomb Spirit, Xiao Tian Ming, Huai En, Huang Min, Huang Lingyun, and Zi Yan and asked them to manage White Jade Capital’s cities and coordinate their allies’ breakthroughs.
• Medusa offered to manage White Jade Capital’s affairs with help from the recovering Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python Tribe Heavenly Sovereigns, and Xiao Tian Ce entered the underground chamber in Immortal-Slaying City.
• Xiao Tian Ce tasked Ling'er with researching saint-grade grandmaster-level spiritual arrays and gave Fatty Baby his knowledge and a spiritual-energy-storing Token so Fatty Baby could make Spiritual Array Jade Pendants.
• Xiao Tian Ce began healing his injuries and discovered that only a small fraction of his divine-grade bloodline remained; unable to determine why it did not recover, he decided to use it all and see whether it regenerated.

Xiao Tian Ce cultivated with his god-grade bloodline power and rapidly advanced to the late-stage immortal-grade heavenly sovereign level, discovering that his exhausted bloodline had instantly recovered. Fatty Baby identified the trait as belonging to the vanished Resting Spirit Clan, leaving Xiao Tian Ce to wonder about his origins.

• Xiao Tian Ce used his remaining god-grade bloodline power to cultivate, while Ling'er explained its potential and Fatty Baby compared it to a spiritual vein.
• After three days, Xiao Tian Ce reached the middle stage as his bloodline power ran out, but his cultivation accelerated and the bloodline immediately returned.
• Xiao Tian Ce spent two more days compressing his spiritual energy, reached the late stage, and stopped cultivating to avoid losing control of his strength.
• Xiao Tian Ce asked Ling'er about his bloodline's recovery, but she said she had never encountered such a phenomenon.
• Fatty Baby said Xiao Tian Ce's bloodline resembled the ninth divine vein of the ancient Resting Spirit Clan, whose power recovered and grew stronger when exhausted.

Xiao Tian Ce investigated whether his renewed bloodline came from the vanished Resting Spirit Clan, then spent his seclusion compressing his spiritual energy and strengthening his arsenal. He emerged ready to take the fight to the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan.

• Fatty Baby explained that the Resting Spirit Clan's bloodline could regenerate after being exhausted, and Xiao Tian Ce decided to test whether his own bloodline worked the same way.
• Xiao Tian Ce entered the Heavenly Dao Glazed Bottle to compress his unstable spiritual energy after his rapid rise to late-stage immortal-grade heavenly sovereign.
• After Steward Lu Tong delivered supplies from the Great Thousand Palace, Xiao Tian Ce used high-grade metals to upgrade all Twelve Heavenly Demon Puppets and forged them long sabers.
• Xiao Tian Ce refined pills whose lightning the puppets absorbed, raising all but Qing Hou to mid-stage spirit-grade heavenly sovereign level.
• Xiao Tian Ce stored his pills and puppets, declared his intention to invade the Extraterrestrial Demon Clan's territory, and ended his seclusion.
