After surviving the crushing thunderbolts, Xu Xuan spoke with the Great God King’s remnant soul, who offered him a place in the God Race. Xu Xuan refused to abandon his human identity, but the Great God King still recognized him as the Divine Heart’s inheritor, and Xu Xuan devoured the heart as the Golden-Armored General submitted to him.

• Xu Xuan opened a passage beneath the throne and entered after noticing the strange black vapor; the Golden-Armored General followed to protect him.
• Xu Xuan let the Demonic Qi coil around him and told the Golden-Armored General to stop blocking it, then continued deeper as the Qi grew denser.

Xu Xuan retrieved a black-and-white body hidden behind a demonic pearl and learned from the system that it was a powerful Saint-Demon Body. He could not use it himself, but the Golden-Armored General might be able to, while an unknown youth revealed a plan involving the Ancient Devil Race.

• Xu Xuan protected himself with divine fire and followed the demonic qi to a pearl that blocked a hidden Saint Body.
• The Golden-Armored General seized and restrained the demon pearl while Xu Xuan opened the wall behind it and found an ice coffin containing a black-and-white body.
• Xu Xuan stored the coffin in his Spatial Ring, hoping the Heroic Spirit General could use the body, and the two left.
• After Xu Xuan departed, a masked youth appeared, declared that the Chosen One could not avert the God Race's tragedy, and used the demon pearl's map to locate the Ancient Devil Race.
• Xu Xuan brought out the coffin in the Main Hall, where the system identified its contents as a Saint-Demon Body formed from god and demon and capable of reaching Great Emperor-level achievements.
• The system told Xu Xuan that only someone in a spirit-body or soul-body state could use the body, so he rejected the idea of killing himself to possess it.
