Lin Heng rejected Meichuan Naizhao’s offer to help him ascend in exchange for breaking the seal on the foreign race’s realm, and the two sides began fighting. Their first clash left Meichuan Naizhao with a slight advantage, though both recognized the other’s strength.

• Meichuan Naizhao questioned Lin Heng about his rise to power and offered to help him reach the Cosmic Spirit Realm if he would break the foreign race’s seal.

Lin Heng battled Meichuan Naizhao and used Eternal Ages’ power to overpower him, while the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor fought Meichuan Siwa far from Gourd Valley. Both fights remained unresolved as Meichuan Naizhao considered using another technique and the other two opponents exhausted their powers in a fierce clash.

• Kunpeng’s roar frightened Yamata no Orochi, and Meichuan Naizhao realized Lin Heng’s divine weapon had helped break the ancient formation.
• Lin Heng refused to let Kunpeng fight directly and defended against Meichuan Naizhao’s enormous sword strike with a golden sword image.
• Lin Heng’s defense barely dimmed, leaving Meichuan Naizhao under pressure and wondering whether to use a hidden technique.

• Meichuan Siwa spread his mist across ten thousand li and formed a giant sword, which the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor met with thousands of lightning strands.

The Nine Heavens experts overwhelmed the weakened foreign race while three peak battles remained deadlocked. Sasaki tried to make Qin Hongmian abandon the assault by warning that the Fire Separation Saint Emperor might reach the Cosmic Spirit Realm, but a voice assured her he could not.

As the Ascenders and the Eight Great Imperial Clans drove back the outsiders, Meichuan Naizhao summoned the True Ancestor of the Blood Sea, a Cosmic Spirit Realm being whose origins traced back to Hongjun. The sea of blood condensed into a beam of red light, leaving Lin Heng to face the arrival of a powerful, long-hidden figure.

• Led by six Saint Emperors, the Eight Great Imperial Clans killed tens of thousands of outsiders as their enemies’ defeat worsened.
• Meichuan Naizhao panicked at his clan’s losses, formed hand seals, and summoned a vast sea of blood behind Gourd Valley.

• Kunpeng told Lin Heng that Blood Sea originated from a drop of Hongjun’s heart’s blood, had fled to this plane, and remained wounded after escaping Hongjun.
• The immense sea of blood churned and rapidly contracted into a beam of red light.

The True Ancestor of the Blood Sea recognized Kunpeng as Lin Heng’s artifact spirit and considered taking over Lin Heng’s body to return to the upper realm. Lin Heng’s Evil Avatar instead proposed a wager to subdue her and make her his artifact spirit, leaving the True Ancestor to decide whether to accept.

• The True Ancestor of the Blood Sea appeared before Lin Heng and recognized Kunpeng, who questioned how she had survived Hongjun’s attack and why she remained in the lower realm.
• Kunpeng exposed the True Ancestor’s plan to take over Lin Heng’s body, and she considered whether to abandon the idea because she could not defeat Kunpeng.

• The Evil Avatar borrowed Eternal Ages and wagered that he and the Good Avatar could injure the True Ancestor within three moves; if they failed, Lin Heng would give her his body.
• Lin Heng offered to swear an oath sealing the wager, and the True Ancestor of the Blood Sea had not yet answered.

Lin Heng’s Good and Evil Doppelgangers defeated the True Ancestor of the Blood Sea, forcing her to become the Evil Avatar’s future artifact spirit. With his support gone, Meichuan Naizhao sought peace, but Lin Heng rejected his offer and demanded his clan’s destruction.

• Lin Heng and the True Ancestor of the Blood Sea swore that she would become the Evil Avatar’s artifact spirit if his avatar wounded her within three moves.

• Meichuan Naizhao realized he had lost his strongest support and offered to swear an oath that he and his brothers would leave the Nine Heavens and keep the peace.
• Lin Heng rejected Meichuan Naizhao’s offer and said the Nine Heavens could only be safe if his entire clan was wiped out.

Lin Heng rejected Meichuan Naizhao’s peace offer and fought him to gain practical experience, gradually turning the battle in his favor. Meichuan Naizhao tried to self-detonate while holding Lin Heng, but the Good and Evil Avatars showed no concern, hinting that Lin Heng had a way to survive.

• Lin Heng rejected Meichuan Naizhao’s offer of peace and resumed their fight, seeking to repay the alien race’s past blood debt.

• The Good Avatar and Evil Avatar realized Lin Heng was using Meichuan Naizhao to practice his inherited combat insights and steadily grow stronger.
• Meichuan Naizhao recognized that he was losing and decided to sacrifice himself to kill Lin Heng.
• Meichuan Naizhao took Lin Heng’s sword strike, grabbed his arm, and began swelling to self-detonate, while the Good Avatar stopped Sun Yuan from intervening and assured him Lin Heng would be fine.

Lin Heng used Eternal Ages to absorb Meichuan Naizhao’s power and stop his attempted self-destruction. After Meichuan Naizhao dissipated, Lin Heng and his companions hurried toward the other battlefields.

• As Meichuan Naizhao held Lin Heng and prepared to self-destruct, Lin Heng released Eternal Ages, which pierced Meichuan Naizhao’s body.
• Eternal Ages devoured Meichuan Naizhao’s power, and Meichuan Naizhao’s attempt to destroy the sword only made it absorb faster.
• Meichuan Naizhao’s cultivation rapidly declined, forcing him to release Lin Heng and cry out that he would seek revenge in another life.
• Eternal Ages withdrew after Meichuan Naizhao’s body dissipated, having grown stronger by devouring him.
• Lin Heng and his companions left for the other battlefields.

After the Nine Heavens army wiped out the foreigners, Lin Heng returned to find that Dijiang had killed the Fire Separation Saint Emperor and captured the Fire Clan traitors. Lin Heng summoned the Nine Heavens leaders to decide the traitors’ fate.

• The Nine Heavens experts defeated the foreigners, and the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and the others agreed to return and check on their sects.
• Lin Heng returned to the Battle Heaven Pavilion and found the Fire Separation Saint Emperor dead and Yan Xifan and the other Fire Clan experts kneeling outside.
• Dijiang thanked Lin Heng for keeping their agreement in mind and vanished, urging him to challenge the Heavenly Estate’s third level.
• Lin Heng reassured Liu Ling'er and told her and the others how the foreigners had been defeated, while Yan Xifan and the other captives regretted the Fire Clan’s betrayal.
• Liu Ling'er explained what had happened at the Battle Heaven Pavilion, and Lin Heng summoned the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor, Ao Zhantian, and other leaders to determine the Fire Clan captives’ fate.

Lin Heng sentenced the Fire Clan for its betrayal, sparing only cultivators at the Nirvana Realm and below after Qin Hongmian argued that the Nine Heavens needed the clan's Fire Source power. After the sentence was carried out, the Lei Clan Ancestor hinted to the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor that the Origin Soul Spirit might offer hope of breaking through the Nine Heavens' restrictions.

• Lin Heng asked the Imperial Clans and Ascenders to decide the Fire Clan's fate, and all six Imperial Clan Saint Emperors demanded its extermination.
• Qin Hongmian argued that the Fire Clan's control of the Power of Fire Source and its past contributions made wiping it out impossible, and Yan Xifan begged Lin Heng to spare some of its bloodline.
• Lin Heng decreed that only Fire Clan cultivators at the Nirvana Realm and below would remain, and the others accepted his judgment.
• Three days later, Yan Xifan and the Fire Clan cultivators above the Nirvana Realm took their own lives, and the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor returned to the Lei Clan.
• The Lei Clan Ancestor explained that the Fire Separation Saint Emperor had betrayed the Nine Heavens to pursue a breakthrough and recalled that the Origin Soul Spirit was key to breaking the restrictions.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor doubted the Eight Great Saint Emperors could break through, but the Lei Clan Ancestor smiled and offered him a glimmer of hope.

The Lei Clan Ancestor proposed that the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor kill Lin Heng and take over his body to obtain Mu Chen’s inheritance and surpass the Nine Heavens, while searching for a way to overcome Lin Heng’s strength. At the Mortal World Inn, Qingyi told Qin Hongmian that she must kill Lin Heng to claim the Origin Soul Spirit and break through the Nine Heavens.

• The Lei Clan Ancestor told the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor to seize Lin Heng’s body and use Mu Chen’s inheritance to break past the limits of the Nine Heavens.
• The Lei Clan Ancestor gave the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor a Soul Condensation Pill that would conceal the body seizure from Hongjun.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor warned that Lin Heng was too powerful for him to defeat, so the Lei Clan Ancestor left to search for a way to deal with Lin Heng and ordered his son to delay Lin Heng’s cultivation.
• Qin Hongmian returned to the Mortal World Inn and found Qingyi waiting in her former bridal chamber.
• Qingyi told Qin Hongmian that the Origin Soul Spirit was at the Battle Heaven Pavilion and that she would have to kill Lin Heng herself to obtain it and break through the Nine Heavens.

Qingyi persuaded Qin Hongmian to kill Lin Heng and seize Mu Chen’s inheritance, while Lin Heng spent time with Liu Ling'er and wondered why the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian kept visiting. Situ Jiannan suspected someone behind the pair was directing their strange behavior, leaving Lin Heng to consider who might be plotting against him.

• Qingyi urged Qin Hongmian to kill Lin Heng, take his body, and use Mu Chen’s inheritance to surpass Hongjun and be together.
• Qin Hongmian doubted Qingyi’s motives, but his assurances softened her resolve.
• Lin Heng spent several days with Liu Ling'er before continuing his cultivation, knowing he might not be able to return from the upper realm soon.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian visited Lin Heng at the Battle Heaven Pavilion each day, chatting without discussing anything important.
• Liu Ling'er and Lin Heng remarked on the visitors’ unusual behavior, and Situ Jiannan suggested that people behind them might be seeking something from Lin Heng.

Lin Heng asked Dijiang why the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian had been visiting him, and Dijiang suspected they wanted to confirm that Lin Heng had inherited their master’s legacy. Lin Heng brought them into the Battle Heaven Pavilion’s time spirit treasure and arranged for them to spar with his doppelgangers, leaving the Evil Avatar to face the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor.

• Dijiang told Lin Heng that the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian were likely trying to confirm he had received their master’s inheritance, but said Lin Heng would have to handle the matter himself.
• Lin Heng returned to the Battle Heaven Pavilion and asked the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian why they kept visiting; they gave excuses about apologizing and seeking cultivation guidance.
• Lin Heng invited them to practice with him in the Battle Heaven Pavilion’s time spirit treasure, and they agreed.
• Lin Heng told them the treasure’s time ratio exceeded one hundred million to one, astonishing both visitors.
• Lin Heng’s Good and Evil Doppelgangers and Sun Yuan arrived, and Lin Heng arranged for the visitors to spar with his doppelgangers.
• The Evil Avatar stepped forward to face the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor, and Lin Heng told him to use his full strength.

Lin Heng's Evil Avatar faced the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor in the Battle Heaven Pavilion's time spirit treasure, wielding the Boundless Blood Sea and proving far stronger than the Saint Emperor expected. Their clash escalated when the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor summoned Bifang, but the avatar's sword blocked its lightning barrage, leaving the Saint Emperor alarmed by Lin Heng's powerful weapons.

• The Evil Avatar drew the Boundless Blood Sea and warned the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor not to hold back.
• The Evil Avatar and the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor traded attacks, with their blood-red light and lightning meeting evenly in the sky.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor realized the Evil Avatar's own strength nearly matched his, while the Boundless Blood Sea made the fight harder.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor summoned Bifang from his lightning whip and ordered the beast to kill the Evil Avatar.
• The Evil Avatar raised a blood-colored barrier with the Boundless Blood Sea, and it endured Bifang's barrage of lightning without breaking.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor stared at the Boundless Blood Sea and wondered how Lin Heng possessed so many powerful weapons.

The Evil Avatar used the Boundless Blood Sea to absorb Bifang’s lightning attack, then drove the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor back with a counterattack. The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor relied on the Lightning Origin Spirit Pearl to defend himself and decided to keep fighting despite recognizing Lin Heng’s advantage.

• Bifang’s Thunderclap Blast collided with the Evil Avatar’s Blood Sea Devours Heaven, and the blood sea swallowed the lightning origin.
• The blood sea used Origin Assimilation to devour the lightning origin, while the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor grew greedy and murderous after recognizing the ability.
• Lin Heng signaled the Evil Avatar to act, and the Evil Avatar swept the blood sea toward the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor summoned the Lightning Origin Spirit Pearl and used his lightning whip with Bifang to tear through the blood sea.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor understood that Lin Heng wanted him to retreat, but chose to continue fighting because of his father’s instructions and his desire to obtain what Lin Heng had inherited from Mu Chen.

The Evil Avatar fought the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and revealed an extraordinary version of the Asura Dao that broke through the Saint Emperor’s lightning defense. The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor was left kneeling and badly wounded, while the Evil Avatar stood over him.

• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor judged Lin Heng, the Evil Avatar, the Good Avatar, Sun Yuan, and Battle Heaven Pavilion to be growing into a major threat, and resolved to eliminate them and seize their treasures.
• The Evil Avatar resumed his attack with the Boundless Blood Sea, but the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor used his lightning whip to block his repeated strikes.
• Lin Heng and the Good Avatar watched as Sun Yuan explained that the Evil Avatar had recently mastered the Asura Dao, which was no weaker than the Great Dao of the Netherworld.
• The Evil Avatar unleashed his three-headed, six-armed Asura manifestation and shattered the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor’s lightning defense net with three simultaneous attacks.
• The Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor’s lightning whip struck him as the defense net broke, leaving him spitting blood and kneeling weakly in midair.

The Evil Avatar defeated the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor, and Lin Heng forced both him and Qin Hongmian to remain inside the time spirit treasure. The next morning, Ao Zhantian came to plead for them, and Lin Heng told him they had repeatedly visited Battle Heaven Pavilion intending to harm him.

• The Evil Avatar severely injured the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor with his Asura Dao, and the Saint Emperor admitted defeat.
• Lin Heng asked Qin Hongmian to spar, and she agreed to stay inside the time spirit treasure rather than try to escape.
• Lin Heng left the Good and Evil Doppelgangers and Sun Yuan inside the treasure with Qin Hongmian and the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor.
• Ao Zhantian came to Battle Heaven Pavilion to plead for the two, and Situ Jiannan helped Lin Heng realize they had not told Ao the truth.
• Lin Heng told Ao Zhantian that the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian had frequently visited Battle Heaven Pavilion intending to harm him.

Lin Heng told Ao Zhantian that the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian wanted to kill him, and warned that he might destroy the Lei Clan and Mortal World Inn if the threat remained. Qingyi then met the Lei Clan Ancestor, who proposed that they stop fighting and seize Mu Chen's inheritance from Lin Heng.

• Lin Heng told Ao Zhantian that the Thunder Punishment Saint Emperor and Qin Hongmian had targeted him, and Ao Zhantian left for the First Heaven.
• Lin Heng told Situ Jiannan that he might kill the two enemies and destroy the Lei Clan and Mortal World Inn if he could not resolve the threat before ascending.
• Ao Zhantian reported Lin Heng's accusation to Qingyi in the Firmament Hall.
• Qingyi left Ao Zhantian waiting and met the Lei Clan Ancestor on a snow-covered mountain.
• The Lei Clan Ancestor told Qingyi that Lin Heng possessed Mu Chen's inheritance and proposed that they work together to claim it.

Qingyi and the Lei Clan Ancestor arranged an ambush for Lin Heng, hoping to seize Mu Chen's inheritance. Lin Heng recognized the invitation as a trap but accepted it, choosing to face the danger as a chance to break through his limits.

• The Lei Clan Ancestor persuaded Qingyi to target Lin Heng while he was relaxed and proposed using formation flags and subordinates to conceal their involvement.
• Qingyi recruited Tianxuzi to lead the Mortal World Inn's experts in an ambush, while the Lei Clan Ancestor prepared the Lei Clan's forces.
• Qingyi asked Ao Zhantian to invite Lin Heng to the Heavenly Elegance Mountain Range under the pretense of discussing Qin Hongmian's release.
• Lin Heng agreed to the invitation, suspecting Qingyi planned to kill him, and explained to Situ Jiannan that he did not want Ao Zhantian endangered.
• Lin Heng told Situ Jiannan he intended to face the trap because a desperate fight could help him surpass his limits.

Lin Heng entered the Heavenly Elegance Mountain Range alone and was trapped by a formation set by the Lei Clan and the Mortal World Inn. He chose to face the attackers by himself, and the chapter ended as the formation sent multicolored chains toward him.

• Lin Heng sensed dangerous auras at four points in the Heavenly Elegance Mountain Range and realized formation flags had been set there.
• The formation activated after Lin Heng entered the range, trapping him as Tianxuzi and several experts from the Lei Clan and the Mortal World Inn appeared.
• Lin Heng told the attackers he had come alone and intended to stake everything on the fight to grow stronger.
• Tianxuzi attacked Lin Heng with his Heavenly Solitude sword, but Lin Heng blocked the strike without being harmed.
• Tianxuzi activated the formation, and multicolored chains shot toward Lin Heng as he recognized it as a trapping formation.

Tianxuzi trapped Lin Heng with the Lei Clan Ancestor’s formation and struck him with a devastating sword beam, but Lin Heng endured the attack without losing his excitement. Tianxuzi faltered instead of delivering another blow, while Lei Juetian urged him to finish Lin Heng.

• Four seven-colored chains bound Lin Heng, suppressing his Powers of Origin and restricting his movement.
• Tianxuzi used the Heavenly Solitude Slash to send a huge blood-colored sword beam crashing into Lin Heng.
• Lin Heng survived with wounds across his body and blood-soaked clothes, still smiling and showing excitement.
• Tianxuzi became unnerved by Lin Heng’s unflinching gaze and stood without attacking again.
• Lei Juetian urged Tianxuzi to kill Lin Heng before the opportunity passed.

Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian realized Lin Heng had absorbed much of Tianxuzi’s sword attack, despite his bloody appearance. They decided to attack him together and test the limits of his ability, while Lin Heng welcomed the chance to keep experimenting with it.

• Tianxuzi noticed that Lin Heng’s presence and breathing remained steady after the sword strike.
• Lei Juetian entered the formation space and agreed that Lin Heng had not taken the attack normally.
• Lei Juetian suspected Lin Heng had absorbed the sword’s energy, and Tianxuzi linked that possibility to Lin Heng’s Origin Assimilation and Devour Heaven and Absorb Earth abilities.
• Lin Heng mocked Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian for failing to kill him while he was bound.
• Lei Juetian proposed attacking Lin Heng alongside Tianxuzi, and the two prepared to strike as Lin Heng eagerly waited to test his ability.

Lin Heng used Devour Heaven and Absorb Earth with Origin Assimilation to absorb Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian’s attacks while loosening the formation’s chains. Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian stopped attacking, leaving Lin Heng to consider provoking them again so he could absorb enough power to break free.

• Lin Heng decided to use Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian’s attacks to test and refine his divine ability.
• Tianxuzi unleashed Heavenly Solitude, Unmoving Heaven Shattering, while Lei Juetian struck with Nine Movements of the Thunder Serpent, Heavenly Might Destroys the World.
• Lin Heng wrapped his spiritual power around both attacks and used a strange force to alter their power, making Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian hesitate rather than intervene.
• Lin Heng absorbed the giant sword and lightning blade beam as streams of eight-colored light without suffering injuries.
• Tianxuzi recognized that Lin Heng’s eight Powers of Origin let him absorb their attacks, while Lei Juetian questioned how Lin Heng could do so while bound.
• Lin Heng secretly used their attacks to loosen the seven-colored chains, then resolved that he might need to provoke them into attacking again to break free completely.

Lei Lan and Mei Aoxue plotted to kill Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian rather than fight Lin Heng, hoping to save themselves from his retaliation. As the two leaders gathered their allies to attack Lin Heng, the conspirators took positions behind them, while Lin Heng prepared to counterattack.

• Outside the formation space, Lei Lan and other cultivators questioned whether Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian could kill Lin Heng and discussed turning against them.
• Mei Aoxue proposed that Lei Lan’s group ambush Lei Juetian while the Mortal World Inn’s people attacked Tianxuzi, and the others agreed.
• Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian decided to bring their followers into the formation space to strengthen their assault on Lin Heng.
• Lei Lan and Mei Aoxue led their followers behind Lei Juetian and Tianxuzi, secretly preparing to betray them.
• Lin Heng circulated the sixty percent of his recovered Power of Origin as Tianxuzi raised his sword and declared that Lin Heng would be buried there.

As Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian prepared to kill Lin Heng, Lei Lan, Mei Aoxue, and their allies struck the two men by surprise and asked Lin Heng to forgive their earlier opposition. The wounded attackers confronted their former allies, and Mei Aoxue declared that Tianxuzi would not escape death.

• Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian launched an attack on Lin Heng, but Lei Lan, Mei Aoxue, and the others hit them before their weapons could strike.
• Lei Lan and Mei Aoxue bowed to Lin Heng and asked him not to hold Tianxuzi and Lei Juetian's offenses against them, claiming they had acted to preserve peace.
• Lei Juetian returned, gravely wounded, and accused Lei Lan of betraying the Lei Clan; Lei Lan replied that Lei Juetian had betrayed it by starting a war.
• Tianxuzi arrived with a ruined left arm and mocked Lei Lan and Mei Aoxue for fearing Lin Heng and the Battle Heaven Pavilion.
• Mei Aoxue told Tianxuzi that their paths had ended and that he would not escape death.
