Lin Heng and the others claimed a Heavenly Firmament Venerable Realm Mystic Frost Ice Phoenix soul on the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda’s second floor, then advanced to its magma-filled third floor. There, they encountered a mutated Teng Snake at the peak of the Heavenly Firmament Emperor Realm, while Lei Yuxiao decided the Eight Great Imperial Clans could no longer hold back.

• Lin Heng opened the second-floor treasure chest and discovered a Heavenly Firmament Venerable Realm Mystic Frost Ice Phoenix soul.
• The Evil Avatar deterred Lei Yuxiao and the other men from the Eight Great Imperial Clans from scheming for the soul, then took it and disappeared.

• Lei Yuxiao weighed Yan Xishan and Jin Tianshuo’s demands to act and finally made his decision.

Lei Yuxiao and his companions took the first turn fighting Teng Snake while Lin Heng and Ling Wushuang hoped to learn what they could do. Jin Tianshuo fell for Teng Snake’s feigned retreat and chased it into the magma.

Lei Yuxiao and Yan Xishan entered the magma to rescue Jin Tianshuo, who had been lured into a trap by the Teng Snake, and emerged battered after retrieving him. With the Teng Snake still guarding the third-level treasure chest, Lin Heng insisted they had to defeat it, leaving Ling Wushuang to weigh the danger.

• Lei Yuxiao realized the Teng Snake had lured Jin Tianshuo into the magma, then plunged in with Yan Xishan to rescue him.

• Lin Heng declared they could not abandon the third-level reward and said they had to slay the Teng Snake, while Ling Wushuang hesitated.

Lin Heng’s Good Avatar uncovered that Yulis had possessed Teng Snake and was using an ancient evil formation to devour cultivators. After Zhu Jiuyin revealed Yulis’s history and promised to consider freeing him if he killed everyone, Yulis unleashed Heavenly Firmament Saint Realm power, and the Good Avatar prepared to fight with the Eight Sources Firmament-Breaking Fan.

• Ling Wushuang admitted that he and the others were unwilling to face Teng Snake or investigate the formation beneath the magma, so Lin Heng summoned his Good Avatar.
• The Good Avatar explained that an ancient evil formation beneath the magma devoured slain cultivators and empowered its master, then confronted Teng Snake about its actions.
• Zhu Jiuyin appeared and revealed that Yulis, a notorious cultivator-devouring evil cultivator, had possessed Teng Snake and used the formation to grow stronger and seek escape.
• Zhu Jiuyin explained that Yulis had taken the floor’s treasure chest reward and promised to consider freeing him if he killed Lin Heng and the others.
• Yulis revealed his full power, breaking through to the Heavenly Firmament Saint Realm, while the Good Avatar produced the Eight Sources Firmament-Breaking Fan.

The Good Avatar restrained Yulis with the Eight Sources Firmament-Breaking Fan, but Yulis used his Dark World Power to escape the attack. After Yulis broke free, the Good Avatar revealed that he had made preparations and warned that he could now kill him.

• The Good Avatar bound Yulis with eight Powers of Origin and struck with a golden sword, but Yulis blocked it with a Dark World Power barrier.

After the Good Avatar carried Lin Heng’s group through the fourth to sixth trials, they reached the seventh floor, where Zhu Jiuyin set a new challenge: defeat one of his Heavenly Firmament King Realm avatars without using avatars. The trial’s reward was the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring, and the restriction left Lin Heng facing a dangerous disadvantage as Lei Yuxiao and the Eight Great Imperial Clans eyed their chance.

• The Good Avatar killed the ferocious beasts in the fourth, fifth, and sixth trials with single attacks, earning Lin Heng three First-Class Primordial Chaos Spirit Treasures.
• Lin Heng and his companions reached the seventh floor and found Zhu Jiuyin guarding the treasure chest.
• Zhu Jiuyin said they had to defeat one of his Heavenly Firmament King Realm avatars, and he barred participants from using avatars themselves.
• Zhu Jiuyin revealed that the reward was the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring, which could bind nine same-level experts or create nine avatars with the wielder’s full strength.
• Lei Yuxiao planned to use the ring to ambush Lin Heng, while Yan Xishan and the Eight Great Imperial Clans mocked Lin Heng’s chances against a Heavenly Firmament opponent.

Zhu Jiuyin began a trial in which Lei Yuxiao had to fight one of his avatars to the death, and Lei Yuxiao volunteered, expecting an easy victory. A Da outmaneuvered him with the Law of Time and struck him twice, leaving the duel ongoing.

• Zhu Jiuyin summoned three emotionless avatars and said Lei Yuxiao would fight one of them in a battle that ended only when one combatant died.
• Lei Yuxiao volunteered to fight A Da, and Zhu Jiuyin enclosed them in a barrier and sent them onto the grassland.
• Lei Yuxiao thrust his Rushing Thunder Soul-Locking Spear at A Da, but A Da vanished and punched him into a ten-meter-deep pit.
• Lei Yuxiao recognized A Da's disappearance technique but could not determine how it worked, while A Da attacked him again.
• Lei Yuxiao used the Law of Time to accelerate, but A Da manipulated time to evade the spear and land another punch.

A Da used the Law of Time and fourth-layer Primordial Chaos World power to outmaneuver Lei Yuxiao, who raised his strength close to the Heavenly Firmament Emperor Realm and unleashed a powerful spear technique. When A Da dodged every strike, Ling Wushuang asked Lin Heng whether he knew how to defeat Zhu Jiuyin’s avatar.

• A Da used Lei Yuxiao’s Law of Time against him and sent him flying twice, while the Good Avatar explained that Zhu Jiuyin’s Primordial Chaos World was at the fourth layer.
• Lei Yuxiao raised his presence to just below the Heavenly Firmament Emperor Realm, prompting Ye Feng to question whether the Eight Great Imperial Clans had broken their agreement.
• Lei Yuxiao poured his power into the Rushing Thunder Soul-Locking Spear and unleashed Three Thousand Thunder Flashes at A Da.
• A Da used fourth-layer Primordial Chaos World power to shift between connection points and avoided every lightning strike.
• Ling Wushuang asked Lin Heng if he had a way to defeat Zhu Jiuyin’s avatar.

Lin Heng persuaded Ling Wushuang and Ye Feng to join him for the trial against Zhu Jiuyin’s clones, while the others refused. Lei Yuxiao consumed a Ghost Blood Lingzhi, gained enough power to destroy A Da, and survived the first battle, but the herb threatened lasting damage to his cultivation.

• Lin Heng asked Zhu Jiuyin whether the trial allowed them to join forces, then invited the others to team up with him.
• Ling Wushuang and Ye Feng joined Lin Heng, while the other experts refused; Lin Heng stopped Ling Wushuang from confronting them.
• Lei Yuxiao swallowed a centuries-old Ghost Blood Lingzhi and surged to the Heavenly Firmament Saint Realm, though Zhu Jiuyin warned of its severe side effects.
• Lei Yuxiao seized A Da’s fist and unleashed lightning that burned the clone to ash, winning the first battle.
• Yan Xishan and Jin Tianshuo felt no relief at Lei Yuxiao’s victory because they would soon face their own battles.

After Zhu Jiuyin defeated Lei Yuxiao, he offered the remaining challengers a chance to compete for the Primordial Chaos Chaos Pearl. Everyone withdrew except Lin Heng, whom Zhu Jiuyin called forward as his clone stepped up to face him.

• Lei Yuxiao attacked Zhu Jiuyin, who knocked him unconscious and reduced his cultivation to the Primordial Chaos Heaven Stage before returning the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring.
• Zhu Jiuyin summoned A Er and offered the Primordial Chaos Chaos Pearl to anyone who could defeat his clone.
• Yan Xishan and Jin Tianshuo chose not to fight, and the other ascenders also withdrew.
• Lin Heng warned Ling Wushuang and Ye Feng that the next clone would likely be stronger; Ling Wushuang and Ye Feng then withdrew as well.
• Zhu Jiuyin called Lin Heng forward, and one of his clones stepped up to fight him.

Lin Heng fought Zhu Jiuyin's stronger clone, A Er, and destroyed him with a single finger, earning the Primordial Chaos Chaos Pearl. Zhu Jiuyin recognized Lin Heng's five-layer Primordial Chaos World and awarded him the pearl.

• Lin Heng stepped forward to challenge A Er for the Primordial Chaos Chaos Pearl.
• A Er revealed cultivation at Heavenly Firmament King Realm Great Perfection and attacked Lin Heng with hidden force and a blood-colored saber.
• Lin Heng dodged A Er's first saber strike while Zhu Jiuyin watched and confirmed that Lin Heng possessed a five-layer Primordial Chaos World.

• Ling Wushuang and the others were stunned, while Lei Yuxiao fainted again after witnessing Lin Heng's victory.
• Zhu Jiuyin declared Lin Heng the winner and tossed him the Primordial Chaos Chaos Pearl.

Lin Heng accepted the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring from Lei Yuxiao and entered the Thunder God Storm trial, where participants had to collect a hundred Thunder God Spirit Beads within a day. Separated in the sand sea, Lin Heng faced a giant scorpion as Zhu Jiuyin and Qiangliang discussed his potential and hoped he would inherit the Heavenly Estate.

• Lei Yuxiao handed the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring to Lin Heng, who accepted it and promised to help him leave the ancient ruins safely.
• Qiangliang explained that participants would be teleported across the Thunder God Storm Domain and had to collect a hundred Thunder God Spirit Beads in one day, with the first to finish winning the Impact Thunder Spear.
• Qiangliang sent Lin Heng and the others into the sand sea, then Zhu Jiuyin told him that Lin Heng possessed a five-layer Primordial Chaos World and could soon reach the level they sought.
• Lin Heng recognized the sand sea as reminiscent of the Chaotic Sand Sea and watched a giant scorpion emerge from the sand.
• The giant scorpion feinted with its tail and aimed its venomous stinger at Lin Heng, who recognized the concealed attack.

Lin Heng killed vicious beasts with ease and sent his avatars to gather Thunder God Spirit Beads, while Lei Yuxiao struggled after entering the trial and Jin Tianshuo fled a dangerous beast lair. The chapter left Jin Tianshuo facing an even more powerful presence beneath the sea of sand.

• Lin Heng killed a giant scorpion, collected its Thunder God Spirit Bead, and sent his Good and Evil Avatars to gather a hundred beads within a day.
• Lin Heng trapped and burned a charging three-horned rhinoceros, intending to enjoy the roasted meat.
• Lei Yuxiao and his avatars killed three vicious beasts, but they suffered injuries and Lei Yuxiao regretted losing the Nine Treasures Glazed Ring to Lin Heng.
• Jin Tianshuo was transported into a sand-sea octopus lair, was seriously injured by the octopus ancestor, and escaped after fleeing hundreds of thousands of li.
• Jin Tianshuo breathed a sigh of relief when the octopuses stopped chasing him, but an even more powerful presence erupted from beneath the sand.

Jin Tianshuo escaped a giant crab in the sea of sand, while Yan Xishan, Ling Wushuang, and Ye Feng gathered Thunder God Spirit Beads. Watching the trial, Qiangliang used the spatial formation to send a Heavenly Firmament Venerable Level flood dragon to Lin Heng's Evil Avatar, whose fate was left uncertain after the beast attacked.

• Jin Tianshuo was struck by a giant crab and fled using a burst of bloody light.
• Yan Xishan killed an ascender, took his storage space and Thunder God Spirit Beads, and continued hunting.
• Ling Wushuang and his two avatars collected more than twenty Thunder God Spirit Beads, while Ye Feng and his avatar gathered eleven.
• Qiangliang and Zhu Jiuyin watched the trial through the Mystic Light Mirror, and Qiangliang decided to test Lin Heng's avatars by moving two powerful beasts toward them.
• Qiangliang activated the spatial formation and sent a Heavenly Firmament Venerable Level flood dragon to Lin Heng's Evil Avatar.
• The flood dragon attacked the Evil Avatar with a black ball of light that blasted a deep crater into the spot where he stood.

The Evil Avatar defeated a flood dragon and claimed its Thunder God Spirit Bead, while Lin Heng's Good Avatar tested his Spatial Domain by trapping and killing a megalodon. The two avatars continued searching the sea of sand for prey.

• The Evil Avatar severed the flood dragon's wings and foreclaw, froze it as it tried to flee, then killed it and took its Thunder God Spirit Bead.
• The Good Avatar sensed spatial energy and encountered a megalodon that had emerged from the sea of sand.
• The Good Avatar activated his Spatial Domain, froze the megalodon, and sliced it apart to test how the domain controlled space and suspended death.
• The Good Avatar released the frozen space, took the Thunder God Spirit Bead, and continued walking through the sea of sand.

Lin Heng and the others completed the sea-of-sand trial, and Lin Heng helped Ye Feng gather enough Thunder God Spirit Beads to pass. Qiangliang then revealed that the beads would protect them in the next trial and warned that one of ten passages meant certain death, leaving the group hesitant to choose.

• Outside the sea of sand, Qiangliang and Zhu Jiuyin watched Lin Heng's avatars defeat powerful beasts and discussed Lin Heng's potential and the Heavenly Estate.
• Lin Heng's Good and Evil Avatars returned with more than a hundred Thunder God Spirit Beads each, and the Good Avatar warned Lin Heng that Ling Wushuang might tell the ascenders about the Heavenly Estate.
• While Lin Heng and his Good Avatar talked, Yan Xishan killed ascenders for their beads, and Lei Yuxiao killed Jin Tianshuo and took his beads to reach a hundred.
• Qiangliang ended the trial and counted the beads; Lin Heng gave Ye Feng twenty-one beads so Ye Feng could meet the requirement, and Qiangliang let him pass.
• Qiangliang opened ten passages for the next trial and said the beads could save lives, but one passage guaranteed death; after he vanished, no one dared choose first.

After Qiangliang sent Lin Heng and the others into separate passages, Lin Heng entered a mist-covered space where a fast-moving dark figure approached him. He prepared spatial escape points but declined the Good Avatar’s suggestion to take control of the space, choosing to face the passage’s trial as intended.

• Ling Wushuang chose the middle passage, and the others selected passages before Lin Heng was left to choose.
• Qiangliang instructed Lin Heng to take the last passage, and its entrance vanished behind him after he entered.
• Lin Heng crossed a pitch-black path and emerged in a misty space where thunder sounded and his soul power could not reach.
• The Good Avatar advised Lin Heng to establish spatial connection points, and Lin Heng spread the fifth layer’s power across the area before proceeding.
• A dark figure flashed past Lin Heng twice, drawing closer, while the Good Avatar proposed that he seize control of the space and destroy it.
• Lin Heng refused the shortcut, reasoning that Qiangliang might make the trial more dangerous if he bypassed it.
