Chapter Summaries

Zhou Qing defeated the tenth guardian, received the Fallen Moon Temple inheritance, and discovered that the Fiend King’s promised opportunity led him to Violetjewel. Though he could not become the sword’s master, Violetjewel’s item spirit let him memorize World God Beixiu’s techniques.

• Zhou Qing defeated the tenth guardian and advanced to Fallen Moon Island, where he selected three treasures and swore Lifeblood Oaths before entering the temple.
• Zhou Qing received the Withered World God and Nine Origin Annihilation techniques, then asked the silver-haired man where the Fiend King’s promised opportunity was.
• The silver-haired man directed Zhou Qing to a lake, which transported him to a dark void and a staircase leading to a jasper temple.
• Zhou Qing found Violetjewel and met its golden-armored item spirit, who explained that he could not become its master because he lacked skill in the Sword Dao.
• Violetjewel’s item spirit showed Zhou Qing a mountain-sized collection of techniques left by World God Beixiu, and he spent half a month memorizing them before murmuring, “Only True Body...”

After returning from Moonlit Pool with World God Beixiu’s inheritance, Zhou Qing prepared to strengthen himself and delayed investigating a mysterious icy chaos star until he was stronger. His clones advanced and Wu Xian’s true body broke through to True God, leaving Zhou Qing ready to merge his clones with Only True Body.

• Zhou Qing reviewed World God Beixiu’s techniques, including Only True Body and Golden Statue, then left Moonlit Pool and headed toward the Three Realms.

• Zhou Qing merged seventeen Wu Xian avatars into his true body and seventeen Second Primaltwin avatars into one, then cultivated his divine abilities to the limit of the True God stage.

Zhou Qing followed the Thousand Winds Token to a frozen star and was transported to a vast city filled with traces of powerful cultivators and mysterious statues. After breaking through to fourth-level Time Power and gaining a trace of Fireforce, he met the city lord Bai Zhi, who revealed the city belonged to Emperor Thousand Winds.

• Zhou Qing chose to use his possession secret technique on the Special Lifeform rather than fight it directly.

Zhou Qing’s simulated self possessed a wounded Space Phantom, rose to prominence as a World Lord, and entered Chaos City to study the Universe Chaos Stele.

Zhou Qing sensed the coming Three Realms tribulation, brought the Moonlit Pool Empyrean Gods back to the Three Realms, and strengthened Fengdu’s defenses.

• The Nuwa Faction’s True Gods and Dao Ancestors entered the Netherworld and witnessed Zhou Qing slay Swordmaster Darknorth, then fight Dao Ancestor Demon Hand.
• Zhou Qing used Three Heads and Six Arms and six Wanxiang Claws to overwhelm Dao Ancestor Demon Hand, who also used Three Heads and Six Arms to defend herself.

Daofather Bodhi and Daoist Sanqing brought Zhou Qing to the Nuwa Immortal Realm, where he offered them a Fiendgod Body Refining technique that might help them break through to Ancestor Gods.

• Ji Yichuan offered to take responsibility for the conflict after learning that Daoist Hanyang had traced Dong Qi’s death back to him with Snowdragon Mountain’s help.

With Snowdragon Mountain threatening the Ji Clan, Ji Ninefire revealed the clan’s hidden inheritance and urged Ji Ning to escape so he could grow stronger. As Ji Ning agonized over leaving his family behind, a mysterious message appeared and he vanished.
