After fusing with Tongue That Tastes and Desires, Kong Xuan completed his breakthrough to the Eight-Ring Soul Douluo realm and gathered his companions to announce a new divine inheritance. He revealed that the Fire God's inheritance ground lay deep in the ocean, and the group agreed to depart in three days; he then asked Huo Yuhao to stay behind.

• Kong Xuan discussed Huo Yuhao’s rapid cultivation and Meng Hongchen’s progress before summoning a purple-robed figure with a token.

• A bolt of lightning struck the courtyard and left a hovering war hammer, which Kong Ling reported to Kong Xuan.

After learning that the first trial required him to endure heavenly lightning in Thunder Valley, he chose to travel there alone while Kong Xuan and Kong Ling prepared for their planned voyage.

• The God of Destruction warned Huo Yuhao that the Thunder God's trials would be dangerous and asked whether he would accept them despite the risk to his life.

• Kong Xuan asked whether Kong Ling resented him for not saving the Thunder God legacy for her, and she accepted that Huo Yuhao was the rightful candidate and turned her attention to the Fire God Inheritance.

Huo Yuhao separated from Kong Xuan’s group to undertake the Thunder God’s Divine Examination, while the others sailed aboard the Voyager in search of the Fire God’s inheritance. After five days at sea, the God of Love Pearl changed, and Kong Xuan spotted a sign that they were nearing their destination.

• Kong Xuan told the group that Huo Yuhao would travel alone to Thunder Valley for the Thunder God’s Divine Examination, and everyone encouraged him.
• Kong Xuan’s group flew to South New City and boarded the Voyager, whose captain, Luo Yuan, introduced himself and explained the ship’s systems.
• The Voyager sailed south, following the God of Love Pearl’s arrow as the group took turns monitoring it and reporting course changes.
• After five days, Xu Tianyi noticed the pearl’s arrow growing clearer and summoned Kong Xuan and the others.
• Kong Xuan examined the sea in the arrow’s direction and said they would soon reach their destination.

Kong Xuan led the group to Fire God Mountain and discovered that the Fire God's inheritance entrance lay beneath the summit's magma. When the heat seemed impossible to endure, the God of Love Pearl created a barrier that protected them from it.

• The Voyager reached Fire God Mountain, where Captain Luo Yuan stopped the ship because the surrounding sea was too hot and unstable.
• Kong Xuan led the group to the mountain and identified the crater as the inheritance entrance, with the true site beneath its magma.
• The group feared they could not survive the heat long enough to reach the entrance.
• The God of Love Pearl emerged and formed a gold-and-silver water barrier that shielded everyone from the heat.

• Kong Xuan guided the group down through the magma inside the God of Love’s gold-and-silver water barrier.
• The barrier carried them into a vast cavern beneath an inverted lake of lava, where they found a black stone platform and a strange flame.
• When the group approached the flame, it grew and revealed a red-haired figure who spoke with a boy’s voice.
• The God of Love Pearl flew from Kong Xuan’s hand to the Fire God, who sensed Evelyn’s presence and returned the pearl.
• The Fire God declared that those who passed his trial could inherit his authority and wield the way of heavenly fire.
