As cultivators broke through, the Dao Spirit Saint began to face the Heavenly Tribulation to become a Great Emperor, while Xu Xuan discovered Luo Xiaotian had reached Peak Saint.

• Everyone became innate Gods and Devils, were destroyed by the being who split heaven and earth, and then lived as the first Blood Clan within the Blood Sea Ancestor.

He threw Magnetic Mountain into the sea of blood, where it began devouring it, provoking the Blood Clan’s powerful members.

• Xu Xuan charged into the Blood Clan’s ranks as Magnetic Mountain consumed the sea of blood and devoured more than a hundred elite Blood Clan members.
• Three Blood Clan Great Emperors appeared through the trembling Blood-Colored Barrier, and Xu Xuan asked where the Soul Clan had gone.

• The Blood Clan Great Emperors warned Xu Xuan that breaking the barrier would force them to merge with their true bodies and unleash genuine Great Emperor power.
