Chapter Summaries

Xu Xuan was intercepted by a mysterious Sea Race youth who claimed to be the Holy Maiden of the Dragon Turtle Clan and sought his help to find the Heavenly Venerable Bone. After agreeing to work together, Xu Xuan emerged with the youth in the Clearfeather Realm, where Lu Tianming arrived and was dismissed as a burden.

• A young man in white swallowed Xu Xuan into his Companion Beast and offered him tea that improved his understanding of the Law of Space.
• The young man revealed that he wanted Xu Xuan's help to find the Heavenly Venerable Bone and claimed to be the Holy Maiden of the Dragon Turtle Clan, able to divine the future.
• Xu Xuan agreed to cooperate after the young man promised to let him take the Heavenly Venerable Bone first if there was only one.
• The young man brought Xu Xuan into the Clearfeather Realm, where his enormous Dragon Turtle Companion Beast emerged and then shrank back into his mouth.
• Lu Tianming rushed over, and the young man called him too weak to keep around and ordered him to leave.

Xu Xuan learned about the Heavenly Venerable Bone and joined Little White in searching for Mo Tianji, who had been ambushed and injured in a swamp. They reached the swamp, where Little White’s Sea Race followers had lost track of him, just as more pursuers arrived.

• Lu Tianming warned Xu Xuan about the Sea Race and left after Xu Xuan dismissed him.
• Little White explained that Mo Tianji had obtained the only known Heavenly Venerable Bone, which could guarantee its bearer became an invincible Great Emperor among peers.

• Little White summoned a Dragon Turtle that swallowed his followers, and Xu Xuan accused him of intending to feed them to it all along.
• Figures approached the swamp from every direction.

Xu Xuan and Little White were confronted in the Black Marsh by the Tree Race and then by powerful groups from the Human Race, the Myriad Races Alliance, and the Sea Race, all drawn by a treasure believed to be a Heavenly Venerate bone. The Fire Race arrived as the factions gathered, and the confrontation remained on the verge of breaking out.

• A host of Tree Race giants charged at Xu Xuan and Little White, while Little White said they were born from one root and focused on him over his troubles with the Sea Race.

• The Fire Race arrived in a vast sea of flames, and its flame creatures emerged as the factions converged on the suspected Heavenly Venerate bone.

The Guixu Sect’s arrival at the gathering sparked a standoff, but Murong Feng’s threat failed to make the gathered Heavenly Prides retreat. Fighting broke out across the crowd, and Xu Xuan joined the battle while asking Little White about Peak Saints.

• The Sea Race’s Young Master urged the crowd to kill the approaching Guixu Sect, and the others agreed.
• Murong Feng arrived aboard the Skyfaring Shuttle and warned everyone to leave, but no one withdrew.
• A Fire Race girl rejected Murong Feng’s threat, so he attacked the Sea Race and she led the Fire Race into battle.
• The gathering erupted into chaotic fighting, and Tree Race giants charged Xu Xuan’s group.
• Xu Xuan fought beside Little White and asked him what a Peak Saint was.

Little White explained that a Peak Saint pursued an extreme in one aspect rather than surpassing Great Emperors in every respect, and Xu Xuan broke through by pushing his strength beyond its limit. As Xu Xuan fought the Tree Race and collected their Tree King Hearts, he discovered he could break through in speed and precision as well.

• Little White explained the difference between a Peak Saint and a Great Emperor, helping Xu Xuan realize he had been trying to break through in too many aspects at once.

• Xu Xuan broke through his limits in speed and precision, killed more Tree Race members, and seized their Tree King Hearts.

Xu Xuan and Little White joined forces against the Tree Race and Sea Race while Xu Xuan continued awakening the extremes. As Xu Xuan charged into the Sea Race and devoured its attacks, the Sea Race Leader appeared in the form of a bizarre Strange Dragon.

Xu Xuan broke through to the Chaos Saint realm and crushed the freakish dragon and the Sea Race fighters attacking him. As the surrounding battle raged on, Little White was ambushed by the Heaven Sword Sect and seized an attacker’s sword.

• Xu Xuan shattered the freakish dragon’s spatial claw, subdued him, and stamped him into the black swamp, where he fell still.

Xu Xuan and Little White escaped underground during the battle in the Black Marsh, where Little White revealed her true form and explained the Blackwater Mystic Snakes’ ancient power. After a snake’s roar badly injured her, Xu Xuan wondered why no creature was the Human Race’s natural enemy, leaving Little White speechless.

• Little White broke a Heaven Sword Sect expert’s weapon and helped Xu Xuan drive back their attackers before they escaped into a hole beneath the marsh.

• A roar from below injured Little White, who said the Blackwater Mystic Snakes were natural enemies whose abilities countered her kind.
• Xu Xuan asked why no creature across the heavens and myriad worlds was the Human Race’s natural enemy, leaving Little White unable to answer.

Xu Xuan and Little White found the Blackwater Mystic Snake’s hidden breeding pool, where countless snakes were actually one creature splitting itself to seek eternal life. Little White suspected the Supreme Bone lay beneath the mass of flesh and proposed moving it aside.

• Little White explained that the Blackwater Mystic Snake was at least a true Heavenly Emperor, while Xu Xuan remained confident it could not use its full strength.
• The space sank deeper underground, and Little White revealed her human form after the beast’s attack gravely wounded her.
• Xu Xuan and Little White entered a dry underground passage and found an immense pool filled with entwined Blackwater Mystic Snakes.
• Little White explained that the snakes were breeding and that they were all parts of a single creature that produced new versions of itself.
• Little White proposed moving the mass of flesh aside because she suspected the Supreme Bone was beneath it, and Xu Xuan doubted they could manage it.

Little White used a Dragon Turtle shell to divine that Xu Xuan's master, Mo Tianji, had survived after falling into the deep pool. Xu Xuan and the others entered the pool, where Murong Feng unleashed a powerful Saint Artifact and they discovered a complete Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton at the bottom.

• Little White admitted she had led the group to the swamp for its treasures, while Murong Feng confronted her over leaving Divine Soul imprints on him.
• Blackwater Mystic Snakes poured down from the cliffs, and Little White offered to help Xu Xuan find his master if he protected her.
• Little White used her Dragon Turtle shell to reveal Mo Tianji falling into the pool, and she divined that he was still alive despite nearly suffering a backlash.
• Xu Xuan rushed into the pool, where Murong Feng used a One-Time Saint Artifact to destroy many snakes and vaporize part of the water.
• Xu Xuan, Little White, Murong Feng, and the others reached the bottom and found a white-jade, gold-glowing Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton beneath a vast dragon tail.

Xu Xuan and Little White uncovered a mirror beneath the mountain of flesh that was disintegrating anyone who approached, and Murong Feng used the discovery to force the Fire Race to investigate. After the Fire Race was wiped out, Little White warned that sending the Myriad Races Alliance in would shatter the mirror’s seal.

• Murong Feng had Guixu Sect experts hurl Fire Race members toward the Golden Skeleton, where they disintegrated before reaching it.
• Little White used a beam of white light to reveal a Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton and a glowing mirror beneath the transparent mountain of flesh.
• Murong Feng insisted that the Fire Race members might be sealed inside the mirror and forced the remaining Fire Race to approach, despite the Fire Race girl's protests.
• Xu Xuan withdrew his intention to help the Fire Race after the girl blamed Little White, and the onlookers watched as the remaining Fire Race members vanished.
• A member of the Myriad Races Alliance challenged Xu Xuan, and Little White warned that sending the alliance into the mirror would break its seal.

Murong Feng forced the Myriad Races Alliance to enter the Blackwater Deep Pool, then seized the Heavenly Venerable's skeleton after destroying the mirror and triggering the Blackwater Mystic Snakes' frenzied reproduction. Xu Xuan discovered he could not bring Little White into his Small World and charged toward the skeleton, with Little White following him.

• Murong Feng ordered the Myriad Races Alliance to charge ahead, and their deaths shattered the mirror's surface enough for him to advance.
• Murong Feng ignored the injured cultivators trapped by the Blackwater Mystic Snakes, crushed the mirror, and released white gas that drove the snakes into uncontrollable reproduction.
• Murong Feng fought through the snakes and reached for the Heavenly Venerable's skeleton, but its golden light blinded him as he seized the skull.
• Xu Xuan realized the Heavenly Venerable had died long ago and could not put Little White into his Small World.
• Xu Xuan charged toward the skeleton, and Little White followed rather than stay behind.

Xu Xuan and Murong Feng fought their way up the mountain of Blackwater Mystic Snakes around the Heavenly Venerable Bone as a mind-destroying poison overcame the cultivators. Murong Feng escaped to Guixu Sect, while Xu Xuan continued searching for clues to Mo Tianji.

• Xu Xuan forced the Heavenly Venerable Bone upward to tear apart the snake mass and search for Mo Tianji, while its golden light badly wounded Murong Feng.
• The poison drove cultivators to attack one another, merge with the Blackwater Mystic Snakes, or take their own lives.

• Murong Feng finally let go of the bone and used a special-grade teleportation talisman to return to Guixu Sect.
• Murong Feng demanded that the sect bring him women, while the remaining cultivators in the pool continued merging into the mountain of flesh.

Xu Xuan endured the Mysterious Snake Mother Body’s influence while searching for traces of Mo Tianji, until the Heavenly Venerable Bone protected him and revealed that his master had already escaped. Its newly awakened intelligence began passing on the Reincarnation Great Dao, but Xu Xuan recognized that the inheritance was a ploy to make him believe he was the Heavenly Venerable’s reincarnation and surrender his identity.

• As Xu Xuan and Little White approached their limits under the snakes’ influence, the Heavenly Venerable Bone’s pull prevented Xu Xuan from releasing it.
• The skeleton’s golden light protected Xu Xuan, and its awakened intelligence revealed that it had helped Mo Tianji escape with a Heavenly Venerable Bone.
• The intelligence identified itself as a young consciousness born from the skeleton and began teaching Xu Xuan about reincarnation and karma.
• Xu Xuan listened to the Dao while enduring Little White’s instinct-driven behavior, and he recognized the voice’s attempt to make him believe he was its reincarnation and form a Heart Demon.

Xu Xuan gained the Reincarnation Law from the Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton, reached a new Saint Realm, and escaped the enraged Mysterious Snake Mother Body. Three days later, Little White awoke in his cave abode, embarrassed by what had happened between them.

• The remnant soul in the Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton praised Xu Xuan's Chaos Divine Body, then annihilated itself as Xu Xuan received the Reincarnation Law.
• Xu Xuan named his unprecedented realm the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm and saw that Little White had passed out from exhaustion.
• The awakened Mysterious Snake Mother Body demanded its skeleton back and attacked Xu Xuan, who escaped by fusing with his earlier self and left a provocative Spiritual Qi illusion behind.
• Xu Xuan carried Little White away and searched for a place to enter seclusion, considering refining the skeleton to reach the perfect Emperor Realm.
• Little White woke after three days in Xu Xuan's cave abode and felt mortified about passing out after what had happened between them.

Xu Xuan and Little White reconciled, then she began advancing toward the Emperor Realm using the Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton. As Feng Wuxia and other top cultivators gathered in the mist, the Human Race and the Myriad Races Alliance broke into battle over the legacy.

• Xu Xuan pulled Little White into an embrace and kissed her, ending their awkwardness, then told her he planned to seek Feng Wuxia for help finding his master.
• Xu Xuan gave Little White the Heavenly Venerable's Skeleton and urged her to attain the Emperor Realm, despite the risk that the law of space would expel her from the Clearfeather Realm.
• Little White began comprehending the skeleton and entered sudden enlightenment as the phantom of the Ancestral Dragon appeared behind her.
• Feng Wuxia revealed that the dissipating will of one Heavenly Venerable Bone had loosened the space, while Human Race experts and the Myriad Races Alliance argued over the legacy.
• The Human Race and foreign cultivators began fighting in the mist, and a human expert used a powerful Divine Ability to destroy the enemy's eye technique before randomly hurling his magical treasure into the battle.

Feng Wuxia used her Wind Clan powers to turn the battle in the Human Race’s favor, but a burrowing attack left her vulnerable until Xu Xuan appeared and blocked the foreign races’ strike. The formation then collapsed, revealing a passage, and the battle resumed as Feng Wuxia realized Xu Xuan’s strength far surpassed hers.

• Human and foreign-race fighters clashed as the mist receded, and the foreign races killed more than a dozen human cultivators.
• Feng Wuxia revealed her Wind Clan Dharma Body and used hurricanes to trap foreign-race fighters, allowing the humans to kill at least a hundred of them before she collapsed from the strain.
• Foreign-race fighters attacked Feng Wuxia through the ground, but Xu Xuan stepped in and blocked their combined strike without injury.
• A fighter shattered the formation, exposing a dark passage, and both sides resumed fighting instead of searching for treasure.
• Feng Wuxia swallowed a medicinal pill and sensed that Xu Xuan’s cultivation and power far exceeded her own.

Xu Xuan defeated and killed Stone Demon while protecting Feng Wuxia, terrifying the Foreign Race experts into retreating. Feng Wuxia urged Xu Xuan to join the final contest, but he chose to stay and guard her.

• Stone Demon attacked Xu Xuan with a saber strike, but Xu Xuan caught and destroyed the saber energy and Stone Demon’s artifact.
• Stone Demon transformed into a massive boulder and charged Xu Xuan, who shrank him into a pebble and crushed him to dust.
• Xu Xuan claimed Stone Demon had been bribed to stage the fight, but the Foreign Race experts ignored him and retreated.
• Feng Wuxia stood up and used prepared saint medicine to suppress her injuries, accepting the risk of lingering problems.
• Feng Wuxia told Xu Xuan he was qualified to enter the final contest, but Xu Xuan said he would stay to protect her.

Xu Xuan joined the others at an ancient treasury gate and forced it open with brute strength despite objections from both races. The gate opened, revealing access to a treasury that may belong to an attendant of Clearfeather Heavenly Venerable rather than the Venerable himself.

• After the Human Race and Foreign Race agreed to stop fighting, they entered an underground passage and found an ancient treasury gate marked with an Azure Dragon emblem.
• Feng Wuxia and the others realized the treasury might belong to a subordinate of Clearfeather Heavenly Venerable, and the two sides agreed to take turns trying to open it.
• When the Foreign Race yielded the first attempt to the humans, Xu Xuan stepped forward and said he would test the gate.
• Xu Xuan pushed against the gate, ignoring complaints that his allotted ten breaths had ended.
• Xu Xuan unleashed his strength and forced the Heavenly Venerable Treasury gate open.

Xu Xuan opened the treasury and sent Feng Wuxia inside, prompting the gathered experts to rush in and fight past him. He blocked their advance, killed a Shadow Race expert, and faced attacks from a concealed Guixu Sect expert and a Blood Clan remnant.

• Xu Xuan opened the treasury, told Feng Wuxia to go, and she charged inside, triggering a rush by the other experts.
• Xu Xuan shattered a Heaven Sword Sect expert’s greatsword and forced him to retreat, then faced a Blood Clan remnant wielding a Pseudo-Emperor Weapon.
• Xu Xuan killed a Shadow Race expert who tried to escape past him and rebuked a Guixu Sect expert for pressing him to move aside.
• The Guixu Sect expert attacked Xu Xuan as the Blood Clan remnant unleashed his scythe, and Xu Xuan caught the blood-colored blade in his palm.
