Chapter Summaries

Han Xing and the other teams endured an apparently endless series of increasingly dangerous relic trials, suffering casualties as they fought. After the eighty-second challenge, the trials finally ended, while Han Xing had just gained the ultimate move Endless Arrow Barrage and considered destroying the relic if the challenges continued.

• Han Xing’s group cleared the early challenges, but the mechanical monsters vanished without granting experience or leaving salvage, and the battles grew steadily harder.
• Ailinora and the God Child of Light helped their team survive the twenty-fifth challenge, but the system immediately began the twenty-sixth.
• During the fortieth challenge, a mechanical monster killed a moose-headed God Child, and the Little Giant King avenged him by destroying two Demigod-level enemies.
• Ailinora’s team suffered two more deaths after dozens of further challenges, while Han Xing’s group drew new Legendary Skills to prepare for the continuing trials.
• At the eightieth challenge, Han Xing unlocked the ultimate move Endless Arrow Barrage and warned that he might use violent methods if the trials had no end.
• The relic challenge ended after the eighty-second round, before Han Xing could try destroying it.

Han Xing and the others completed the Endless Trials, obtained a Frozen Star Cannon blueprint, and reunited with the other teams in the ruin’s central laboratory. As the teams debated the final trial, Han Xing, the Dark God Child, and the Little Giant King chose to leave, then confronted the dwarves over their suspiciously easy passage through the challenges.

• Han Xing opened the reward box, collected its materials and weapons, and found a High-Level Ancient Weapon Blueprint for a Frozen Star Cannon.
• Han Xing gave Wan Liu Insect Emperor Stones and a Gene Enhancement Serum, and Wan Liu explained that Treant Heart of the Life Trees could reduce the serum’s mutation risk.
• Han Xing’s team entered the central laboratory and met the other groups, who had lost seven members during the eighty-two trials while the dwarves remained unharmed.
• After the ruin offered the final trial or a chance to leave, Han Xing chose to withdraw, and the Dark God Child and Little Giant King followed.
• The Dark God Child questioned how the dwarves had survived the trials without casualties, and Han Xing suggested taking them down instead of continuing the interrogation.

Han Xing and the assembled heroes exposed the Dwarven Legends’ insect experiments and defeated four of their Demigod-level transformations, but the survivors awakened the God-tier Insect Queen. The Queen overwhelmed Little Giant King and attacked the others, until Ailinora caught its tentacle and revealed unexpected strength.

• Han Xing, Dark God Child, Little Giant King, and Ailinora attacked the Dwarven Legends after they admitted planning to capture their enemies for experiments.
• The seven dwarves transformed into Demigod-level insect monsters, but Han Xing, Cheng Jianyong, and the other fighters killed four of them.
• The three surviving monsters stirred their own brains and summoned the Insect Queen, a God-tier creature, through the purple passage.
• Little Giant King led an attack on the Insect Queen, but it barely damaged her and she knocked him unconscious with a tentacle.
• The Insect Queen struck at the gathered fighters, but Ailinora caught its tentacle and welcomed the powerful clash with a crazed smile.

Han Xing and his allies struggled against the Insect Queen after Ailinora and Shen Yun were knocked aside and the other God Children ran out of trump cards. Han Xing used Endless Arrow Barrage and a Giant Beast Tail Spike loaded with Extreme Giant Beast Venom to kill the Insect Queen, leaving the group at level 57 with new Legendary Skill draws available.

• Ailinora restrained one of the Insect Queen’s legs, and Shen Yun blocked another attack while Han Xing and his allies struck the three injured Demigod insects.
• The Insect Queen sent Ailinora and Shen Yun flying, leaving Han Xing as the only one able to damage it.
• Han Xing unleashed Endless Arrow Barrage and repeatedly struck the Insect Queen, reducing its divine power.
• Shen Yun blinded the battlefield’s enemies with Great Angel’s Judgment while Han Xing dodged the Insect Queen’s attack using a jeweled throne.
• Han Xing appeared on the Insect Queen’s back and stabbed it with a Giant Beast Tail Spike, inflicting a hundred stacks of Extreme Giant Beast Venom that melted the creature.
• The Insect Queen died, and Han Xing and his four companions reached level 57 and gained Legendary Points.

After killing the Insect Queen, Han Xing discovered the ruins were changing and slaughtered three mutated Demigod insects. He sent the other God Children out, then led his companions into the maze-like ruins to search for the resource storage room.

• A system warning announced that the Insect Queen's death had damaged the Primitive Ruins' core, awakening sealed insects across the secret realm and raising buried ruins.
• Outside the secret realm, the Dwarven King and the Ogre Lord argued over Gulichi's death as Demigods arrived and reported that their God Children had gone missing; the Dwarven King then realized his race's seven High-tier Legends had also lost contact.
• Han Xing killed three mutated Demigod insects with arrows, earning Experience Points and Legendary Points, while the surviving God Children watched in fear.
• The God Children promised to keep Han Xing's feat secret, and Han Xing broke through the ceiling so they could leave; Ailinora thanked him before departing too.
• Han Xing and his four companions searched the laboratory for a resource storage room, found a hidden door and connected trial spaces, and continued exploring Ruin No. 5's maze.

Han Xing and his companions broke through the depths of the primordial ruin, fought their way past swarms of awakened cockroach monsters, and continued searching for its resource storage room. After hours of searching the core area, they finally reached the Resource Storage Area of Primitive Ruin No. 5.

• Han Xing used the Giant Beast Tail Spike to break through the ruin's floors and found a hidden laboratory where the group suspected Insect Race members had disguised themselves as Dwarven Race Legends.
• Han Xing repeatedly drilled downward until the ruin's alarm identified the core area and reported that the Insect Queen was no longer alive.
• Han Xing and his companions found tens of thousands of cockroach monsters on the spiral staircase and fought them as they descended.
• Han Xing's group drove back the cockroach monsters and spent five more hours searching the core area's rooms.
• Han Xing and his companions entered a huge plaza, and the System Prompt identified it as the Resource Storage Area of Primitive Ruin No. 5.

Han Xing and his companions looted enormous stores of Insect Emperor Stones and rare materials in Primitive Ruin No. 5, then questioned the ruin’s intelligent core about the insect race and its supposed God-Slaying Weapons. The core revealed that Transcendent-Tier weapons had never been forged and that the insect forces were lying low, but when it opened a portal to send them out, Han Xing refused to leave.

• Han Xing and his companions passed up the warships and ordinary weapons, then collected 11.37 million Insect Emperor Stones, Chaos Godstones, and other materials from the warehouses.
• The companions found more than 60 million Insect Emperor Stones in their backpacks but failed to locate a God-Slaying Weapon or its blueprint.
• The ruin core let the companions into its chamber after detecting their overwhelming power, and Han Xing threatened to destroy it unless it answered his questions.
• The ruin core revealed that Transcendent-Tier weapons remained only conceptual, and that three insect queens, eight insect generals, and two insect kings remained while the insect race stayed hidden.
• The ruin core opened a teleportation gate to send Han Xing and his companions out, but Han Xing turned back and said he was not leaving.

Han Xing obtained the Heavenly Rail Strike Device blueprint and learned that the portal back to the Holy Spirit Realm would close in less than two days, so his group raced to the central Teleportation Array. The survivors returned to the Dwarven Kingdom, where the Dwarven King detained them for questioning as their worried Demigod leaders awaited answers about the deaths in the ruins.

• Han Xing learned that the Heavenly Rail Strike Device blueprint required an unknown material called World Will, then left Relic No. 5 with his companions.
• Shen Yun found the central Teleportation Array's location, and Han Xing's group fought through mechanical monsters as they hurried there.
• Han Xing's group waited for the portal to open alongside the surviving experts, including the wary Little Giant King and the composed Ailinora.
• The portal opened, and seventy-four surviving experts entered it while Demigods gathered at the Dwarven Kingdom and the Dwarven King ordered them to wait for questioning.
• Neotos emerged first and was told by the Dwarven King to stay until the other survivors arrived; his uncle urged him to cooperate.

Han Xing admitted that he had killed the Ogre Child Gulichi, prompting the Ogre Lord to demand revenge and threaten humanity. The Dwarven King tried to intervene, but Han Xing told him to step aside and prepared to face the Ogre Lord.

• The Demigod Experts questioned the surviving God Children about the deaths in the Primitive Ruins, and Ailinora explained that unexpected changes had made the trial unusually dangerous.
• The Dwarven King accepted the account and dismissed the gathered experts, but the Ogre Lord Gulidun recognized Han Xing as the one who had killed Gulichi.
• Han Xing resisted Gulidun’s attempt to bind him with divine power, and Gulidun threatened to attack him and devour humanity in revenge.
• The Dwarven King tried to protect Han Xing, while other Demigods mocked him and Qinglian warned her Clan Leader not to provoke the humans.
• Han Xing told the Dwarven King to step aside and invited Gulidun to fight.

Han Xing and his teammates killed the Ogre Lord Gulidun, gaining experience, Legendary Points, and Destiny Value before leaving the Dwarven Kingdom. They traveled toward Inferno Plateau, where Han Xing began expanding Myriad Stars City's defenses, and planned to explore the Abyssal Rift afterward.

• Han Xing's team buffed themselves, froze Gulidun with Zhang Lianmeng's Icy Age, and destroyed him with their attacks, including Cheng Jianyong's Sky-Splitting Sword.
• Gulidun's death triggered signs of a fallen Demigod across the Ogre Kingdom, while Han Xing's group received rewards and 10,000 Destiny Value.
• Han Xing left the Dwarven Kingdom after telling the Dwarven King about an insect race Demigod hidden by the dwarves; a Telepathic Message then shocked the king.
• After returning to their sky island, Han Xing chose Inferno Plateau as their next destination to search for one of the Elemental Archmage's godsparks.
• Han Xing used his materials to construct 50 Withered Snowflake towers and 100 Frozen Star Cannons, greatly strengthening Myriad Stars City.
• As the team approached the fiery Inferno Plateau, Han Xing agreed that they could later explore the Abyssal Rift and pursue the 80th- and 90th-floor First Clear Rewards.

Han Xing and his companions reached the Inferno Plateau to seek its Flame Divine Spark, but the Flame Stone Golems refused to negotiate and nearly declared war. Their Demigod Clan Leader finally summoned Han Xing to meet, though the group could not find him at the indicated mountain.

• Han Xing and his companions traveled through the burning Inferno Plateau and encountered intelligent Flame Stone Golems guarding the region.
• Han Xing told a Legendary Flame Stone Golem that he wanted the Flame Divine Spark and asked to meet its Clan Leader.
• Cheng Jianyong severed the Stone Golem's arm when it attacked, prompting it to summon more than a hundred Legendary Stonefolk.
• Han Xing offered to trade for the Divine Spark, but the Stonefolk rejected his offer and threatened war if he tried to take it.
• The Demigod Clan Leader apologized for the delay and invited Han Xing to meet, but Han Xing and his companions could not locate him at the mountain.

Han Xing discovered that the Flame Stone Golem Chieftain was hiding a connection to an Otherworldly Evil God, then returned to Inferno Plateau with proof and used the Frozen Star Cannon to silence the Stonefolk. The Stonefolk stood down after realizing Han Xing’s group could overwhelm them, leaving the Flame Divine Spark dispute unresolved.

• The Flame Stone Golem Chieftain refused to trade the Flame Divine Spark and explained that it sustained his Stonefolk race.
• Han Xing suspected the Chieftain’s power came partly from an Otherworldly Evil God and sent Meiqiu to secretly gather evidence.
• Meiqiu returned with an Otherworldly Divine Power Crystal, confirming Han Xing’s suspicions.
• Han Xing led the group back toward Inferno Plateau, where over a hundred Legendary Stonefolk threatened to start a war.
• Han Xing fired the Frozen Star Cannon, driving the Stonefolk away and forcing the survivors to fall silent.

Han Xing exposed the Stonefolk’s dealings with the Otherworldly Evil Gods and forced the Stone Golem Chieftain to surrender the Flame Divine Spark. Han Xing and his companions reached the spark, which could help Zhang Lianmeng become the Elemental God-King once they found the remaining elemental sparks.

• Han Xing revealed that the Stonefolk carried traces of Otherworldly Evil God power and confronted their chieftain with evidence.
• The Stone Golem Chieftain admitted he had accepted the evil gods’ gifts but said his clan had been fighting their influence, and Han Xing demanded the Flame Divine Spark in exchange for keeping the matter secret.
• The Stone Golem Chieftain led Han Xing and his companions into the Inferno Plateau’s forbidden region, where they used Withered Snowflake towers and Frozen Star Cannons to suppress the heat.
• Han Xing and his companions passed the Flame Divine Spark’s seal and found the red crystal deep inside the plateau.
• Han Xing learned that the spark could help Zhang Lianmeng become a Flame Archmage or, with the other six elemental sparks, the Elemental God-King.

Han Xing’s team took the Flame Divine Spark from the Inferno Plateau and traveled toward the Shattered Lands to seek another Divine Spark. Meanwhile, the ogres sacrificed half their population to gain temporary demigod power and set out to attack the Wu Race Territory; Han Xing’s team reached the Shattered Lands and began facing its deadly lightning.

• Zhang Lianmeng stored the Flame Divine Spark, and Han Xing warned the Stone Golem Chieftain to avoid the Otherworldly Evil Gods before leaving the Inferno Plateau.
• Han Xing reassured his companions that the Wu Race Territory could defend itself and chose the Shattered Lands as their next destination because it held a lightning-element Divine Spark.
• Ogre leaders sacrificed hundreds of billions of ogres to empower their warriors, creating five temporary demigods who ordered the army to attack the Wu Race Territory.
• Han Xing and his companions arrived in the Shattered Lands, where Han Xing explained that random Lightning Strikes had left few islands or living beings.
• Han Xing’s Divine Power Domain shielded Myriad Stars City from repeated Lightning Strikes as the team continued deeper into the region.

Han Xing explored the Shattered Lands, claimed thunder-rich floating islands, and forced their powerful inhabitants to sign Lord Contracts. After a day, he had recruited fourteen thunder-element creatures and continued deeper into the region.

• Han Xing found a vast island made of Thunderstone, defeated its Thunder Crystal Demon Dragon, and made it sign a Lord Contract before ordering it to guard the island.
• Han Xing and his companions reached another thunder island, where Shen Yun tested his strength against a Four-Winged Thunder Bird and withstood its attacks.
• Han Xing's group defeated the Four-Winged Thunder Bird and made it sign a Lord Contract, then sent it to join the Thunder Crystal Demon Dragon.
• Han Xing continued capturing creatures across the Shattered Lands, contracting fourteen thunder-element beasts, including thirteen High-tier Legends and one demigod Thunderhorn Sky-Bull.

Han Xing spent four days subduing powerful creatures in the Shattered Lands while the ogre army marched to attack the Wu Race. The Orc King and his forces joined the Wu Clan as Han Xing’s allies, and Han Xing’s Beast Tamer title upgraded to Demigod Level.

• Han Xing subdued the Demigod-level Thunderhorn Sky-Bull, then led his companions in conquering sky islands and recruiting monsters across the Shattered Lands.
• The ogre army advanced toward the Wu Race with more than one hundred Legends, five Demigods, and one hundred billion soldiers, while other races declined to interfere.
• Wu Ling'er convened the Wu Clan’s Legends and prepared them for war after learning the ogres were retaliating for Han Xing’s killing of the Ogre Lord.
• Uman arrived in the Wu Race Territory and revealed that Han Xing had made him and the Orc Kingdom’s Legends his allies, promising them support against the ogres.
• Han Xing’s Beast Tamer title upgraded to Demigod Level after he subdued nearly a hundred powerful creatures, and his contracted beasts’ Destiny Value greatly increased his faction’s attributes.

The ogre army invaded the Wu Clan Border with five demigods and a host of Legends, overwhelming Wu Ling'er’s defenses despite the Spirit Energy God-Slaying Cannons. As the Witch Clan and Orc Kingdom fought to hold them back, Han Xing arrived, and Wu Ling'er prepared to use the ancient seed he had left her.

• Han Xing and his team learned that the ogre army had reached the Wu Clan Border, and Han Xing agreed to return after finishing their exploration of the Shattered Lands’ outer region.

• Han Xing arrived through the Advanced Teleportation Array with his team and confronted the ogre army as the three demigods charged him.
• Su Xiaoyang summoned vines against the three ogre demigods, but their divine power vaporized them.

Han Xing summoned more than a hundred powerful thunder beasts to the Wu Race Territory, where they and his allies overwhelmed the Ogre army despite its sudden surge in strength. The Ogre leader offered surrender and a Lord Contract, but Han Xing rejected it and ordered the slaughter to continue.

• The Ogres strengthened their hundreds of billions of soldiers through sacrifices, while Zhang Lianmeng froze three Demigod Ogres with Icy Age.
• Han Xing summoned more than a hundred thunder beasts, whose attacks swept across the Ogre soldiers, Legends, and Demigods.
• Han Xing's allies and the thunder beasts routed the Ogres, while the Wu Clan's momentum surged.
• The Ogre leader begged Han Xing to stop and offered surrender, even kneeling to propose a Lord Contract.
• Han Xing refused the surrender and ordered the thunder beasts to kill every Ogre.

Han Xing destroyed the ogre army, ordered the Wu Race to finish the war in the ogre kingdom, and returned to the Shattered Lands with his team to claim the Thunder Godhood. A month later, Abyssal Demons began another invasion through Teleportation Arrays in the Elven Kingdom, and the Elven King mobilized his soldiers.

• Ancient powers debated the hidden battle in the Wu Race Territory and argued over whether to eliminate Han Xing, while the Dragon Road's ancient will accused them of using the ogre race to test humanity.
• Han Xing ordered his Wu Race forces and thunder beasts to slaughter the remaining ogre soldiers, then commanded High Priest Xiao to lead the army to the ogre kingdom and finish the war.
• Han Xing returned to Myriad Stars City, told Wu Ling'er that his contracted thunder beasts would guard the Wu Race Territory, and spent time with her before leaving.
• Han Xing and his teammates teleported to the Shattered Lands and resumed exploring its Sky Islands, contracting thunder-elemental beasts for his faction as they went.
• A month later, purple portals opened across the Elven Kingdom, prompting the Elven King to declare first-level war status and lead the elves into battle.

The Elf Race repelled a massive Abyssal invasion but feared that stronger Demons might threaten the kingdom, while Han Xing and his companions ventured deeper into the Shattered Lands. There, Han Xing activated a dangerous War Wraith Lord Trial and faced a single attempt to endure lightning without external aid.

• Abyssal Teleportation Arrays unleashed a huge invasion across the Elven Kingdom, and the Elf Race defeated the Legendary Grade Demons before Yuliana warned the Elven King that future attacks might be stronger.
• Han Xing subdued his 572nd high-tier Legendary thunder beast, reviewed his party’s improved attributes, and sent the beast to transport a vast mineral continent toward the Wu Race Territory.
• Han Xing and his companions entered the lightning-filled depths of the Shattered Lands, where Han Xing discovered that Spirit Energy God-Slaying Cannons could cancel out the lightning strikes.
• Han Xing triggered the War Wraith Lord Trial, which required him to endure ten seconds of lightning using only his body and divine power, without equipment, pets, or other external aid.
• Han Xing chose to attempt the trial despite his companions’ concerns, then learned that failure would make the mission disappear and leave him with only one chance.
