Ch. 652The Truth Behind the Divine Dao's Collapse

Chen Yang questioned Liuli about her survival of the catastrophe and learned how her father, Divine Lord Li Huo, had sealed her and his research inside the Secret Realm. Liuli’s account led Chen Yang to suspect that the Old Divine Lord had deliberately buried the Divine Dao’s main-lineage deities as part of a plan for the Dao’s rebirth.

  • Liuli recognized her earlier arrogance, apologized to Chen Yang and the other deities, and accepted her place at the back of the gathering.

  • Chen Yang bound the soul within the Cold Vein Profound Crystal to himself, and Liuli identified it as Frost Flower Venerable God, son of Profound Ice Divine Lord.
  • Liuli explained that Frost Flower had supposedly perished in the Outer-Heaven Cataclysm, and Chen Yang concluded that the Divine Lords had preserved him and other sparks of their lineages in the Secret Realm.

Ch. 655Design

Chen Yang lured Nangong Jinghe away from the heavenly palace by claiming he had sensed a second Creation Origin, intending to confront Su Lingyun and the Su Family. At an ancient mine, Su Lingyun discovered a hidden Fire Vein whose treasure stirred the Su Family’s blood jade, just as Nangong Jinghe arrived.

  • Liuli asked Chen Yang whether she should return to the Secret Realm to hide the fire seed or divert the cultivators, but he told her to stay safe and leave the matter to him.

Ch. 656Killing Chosen Prodigies Was What Made It Thrilling

Nangong Jinghe detected Creation fluctuations beneath the land using the sensing method Chen Yang had taught him, then attacked the Su Family cultivators who occupied the site.

Ch. 657This Child Must Not Be Spared!

Chen Yang and Nangong Jinghe attacked the Su Family mine, where Su Lingyun tried to appease Nangong Jinghe and then fought back with the family’s bloodline treasure. As Nangong Jinghe’s golden light closed in, a blood-red arm emerged from Su Lingyun’s neck wound and seized it.

  • Chen Yang pretended to share Nangong Jinghe’s taste for killing prodigies, and Nangong Jinghe slaughtered the Su Family cultivators guarding the mine.
  • Su Lingyun recognized Nangong Jinghe’s strength and ordered the cultivators with him to kneel, then praised Nangong Jinghe and called him Grandpa when asked.

  • Su Lingyun commanded the other Su Family cultivators to explode into blood mist and gathered their blood energy into the blood jade for a final strike.

Chen Yang seized Su Lingyun’s blood jade and destroyed his escaping soul, but Su Dingcang used a Life-Bonding Ancient Method to protect Su Lingyun’s mind and soul. The chapter left Su Lingyun’s soul shielded by Su Dingcang’s lifespan as Chen Yang and Nangong Jinghe assessed the ancient technique.

  • Chen Yang recognized the Su Family’s blood jade as a sinister treasure and decided to take it for himself.
  • Chen Yang pulled the blood jade away from Su Lingyun, who abandoned his defense to hold on to it and was struck by Nangong Jinghe’s Golden Light Technique.

  • Su Dingcang hurried toward Su Lingyun while Nangong Jinghe continued bombarding his consciousness with the Gold Ring’s golden dragon breath.
  • Su Dingcang’s lifespan began draining faster, so he burned his essence blood and sacrificed the upper limit of his Dao Path to accelerate his journey.
  • Chen Yang persuaded Nangong Jinghe to save his strongest methods for future threats and asked him for help with the Void Realm; Nangong Jinghe agreed.
  • Nangong Jinghe manifested a dragon claw that cracked Su Lingyun’s life-bound protection before Su Dingcang could arrive.
  • Su Dingcang withdrew the life-bound technique rather than let it consume his life, and Su Lingyun’s aura disappeared completely.

Ch. 660A Thousand-Zhang Dike, a Hundred-Foot Chamber

Chen Yang and Nangong Jinghe confirmed Su Lingyun’s death, while Su Dingcang abandoned his pursuit to protect the Su Family from powerful Central Region enemies. They then found the spiritual ore essence, and Chen Yang revealed its dazzling sign of Creation.

  • Chen Yang reflected that Su Lingyun’s extraordinary fortune and many life-preserving methods had made him difficult to kill, and concluded that striking with overwhelming power had been essential.
  • Su Dingcang sensed Su Lingyun’s death, weighed his hatred against the danger of confronting the powerful killers, and withdrew to avoid bringing ruin upon the Su Family.
  • Nangong Jinghe praised Su Dingcang’s decision to retreat, and he and Chen Yang exchanged boasts about their combined strength.
  • Nangong Jinghe failed to locate the opportunity with his unfamiliar Creation-sensing method, so he and Chen Yang used Chen Yang’s senses to find the spiritual ore essence.
  • Chen Yang explained that the essence was an unawakened Origin object, removed its stone coating, and revealed a brilliant sign of Creation to Nangong Jinghe.

Ch. 661Chen Yang's "Hidden Hand"

  • Chen Yang promised Nangong Jinghe ownership of the newborn Creation Origin and said he wanted the mineral marrow to become a foundation for a treasure that could accelerate Creation Origin cultivation.
  • Nangong Jinghe guessed Chen Yang had withheld the final nurturing techniques, and Chen Yang admitted he had kept a few subtle methods as safeguards.

Ch. 662A Grand Plan Takes Shape Through Small Stakes

Chen Yang convinced Nangong Jinghe that a piece of spiritual mineral essence was a rare Creation Origin and secured the Nangong Clan’s help incubating it for ten years. After Nangong Jinghe accepted the scheme, Chen Yang offered him the nearby Fire Vein and jokingly held him to his promise of providing more in the future.

  • Chen Yang explained that his Dao Integration mark would alert him if Nangong Jinghe broke open the mineral essence, allowing him to abandon their agreement if the deception was discovered.
  • Chen Yang offered Nangong Jinghe the nearby Fire Vein, and Nangong Jinghe told him to take it and promised to provide as many as twenty Fire Veins at Anshen Valley.

Ch. 663The Nangong Clan's Inner Demon

Chen Yang concealed the Stellar Flame Seed by taking the entire Fire Vein, then parted from Nangong Jinghe as the Nangong Clan's True Intent Cultivator arrived. Nangong Jinghe investigated the cultivator's inner demon, uncovered a grievance tied to the demon-slaying campaign, and began preparing to visit the southeastern Demon Soil.
