Xu Xingyu witnessed a record of the Five Elements Plane’s creation and the birth of its Dragon Clan, then returned to the valley with three mysterious objects. He realized the Earth Dragon Ancestor was descended from both the Mountain Dragon lineage and the Earth Dragon King's lineage, and noticed the old dragon recognize Ya Lin'er.

After learning that a sealed small world was absorbing dragon remains from the Dragon Graveyard, Xu Xingyu heard the Dragon Emperor ask him to rescue his daughter first.

• Xu Xingyu told the Dragon Emperor that Ya Lin'er could prevent the Earth Dragon Ancestor from taking his own life and would outlive him.
• Xu Xingyu promised to address the Dragon Clan’s future, prompting the Dragon Emperor to thank him and pledge respect to him.
• The Dragon Emperor explained that a sealed small world had connected to the Light Five Elements Dragon Clan’s Dragon Graveyard and was absorbing the buried dragon corpses.
• The Dragon Emperor said he had severed the connection and that the Dragon Clan kept reinforcing the seal to prevent the small world from merging with the Sanhe Mountain Range.
• The Dragon Emperor asked Xu Xingyu to rescue his daughter before investigating the small world.

Xu Xingyu heard that the Dragon Emperor’s daughter could not hatch because her mutated egg had become too sturdy, and he agreed to examine it before proposing a solution. After Xu Xingyu proved he was the Dragon God’s Inheritor, the Dragon Kings focused on his possible help, and the Diamond Dragon King eagerly awaited his judgment.

• The Dragon Emperor explained that one child had been stolen by Bing Shuang and his other daughter could not break out of her mutated eggshell.
• Xu Xingyu said he needed to see the egg before deciding whether he could help, and the Dragon Emperor led him and Gu Qiuxi to Dragon Valley.
• The Dragon Emperor introduced Xu Xingyu as the Dragon God’s Inheritor and Gu Qiuxi as his lover, while Gu Qiuxi stopped Xu Xingyu from correcting him.
• The Five Elements Dragon Kings doubted Xu Xingyu’s identity until his Dragon God Bloodline and recognition by the clan’s sacrificial artifact confirmed it.
• The Dragon Emperor said Xu Xingyu might solve the clan’s problems, and the Diamond Dragon King eagerly hoped he could safely hatch her daughter.

Xu Xingyu explained that the Dragon Emperor and Yilina’s daughter had awakened the Mountain Dragon King bloodline, whose stabilizing power made her eggshell exceptionally hard and her hatching difficult. He suggested boosting her vitality or forming a suitable Partner Contract, then offered a Bloodline Link as another option.

• The reincarnated Dragon King brought out a crystal-clear dragon egg that Xu Xingyu recognized as carrying a pure Mountain Dragon King bloodline.
• Xu Xingyu explained the bloodline’s origins and described how its stabilizing power strengthened the eggshell and made hatching difficult.
• Xu Xingyu warned that the child might take up to fifty thousand years to hatch naturally, and recommended a vitality-rich place with yin life energy to help her hatch sooner.
• Xu Xingyu advised against an earth-attribute Partner Contract and recommended a wood- or water-attribute mage, especially one with yin wood.
• Xu Xingyu offered the Dragon Emperor another method to help the child: a Bloodline Link.

Xu Xingyu explained the bloodline link contract and proposed using an Earth Dragon King Dragon Core to help the Dragon Emperor and Yilina’s daughter hatch. The Dragon Emperor agreed to link with his daughter and pass her the purified core energy, giving her a chance to awaken her Earth Dragon King bloodline and inherit its divine seat.

• Xu Xingyu explained that a bloodline link let two willing partners share bloodline power and life force, but could weaken the stronger partner and cause both to die if either died.
• Yilina offered to form the link with her daughter, but the Dragon Emperor insisted that he should take the risk instead.
• Xu Xingyu clarified that he did not intend for either parent to sacrifice life force and revealed an Earth Dragon King Dragon Core.
• Xu Xingyu explained that the core could awaken their daughter’s latent Earth Dragon King bloodline, strengthen her life force, and help her break through her eggshell.
• Xu Xingyu proposed that the Dragon Emperor link with their daughter, absorb and purify the core’s energy, and pass it to her, allowing both parents a chance to inherit the Earth Dragon King’s divine seat.

Xu Xingyu guided the Dragon Emperor through a bloodline-link ritual that let him transfer power from an Earth Dragon King's Dragon Core to the dragon egg. The egg hatched safely, and the Dragon Emperor and his wife welcomed their daughter into the world.

• The Dragon Emperor and his wife agreed to use Xu Xingyu's method rather than seek an outside contract partner for their daughter.
• Xu Xingyu drew bloodline-link magic arrays beneath the Dragon Emperor and the dragon egg, then began chanting an ancient Dragon Language incantation.
• The Earth Dragon King's Dragon Core power surged into the Dragon Emperor, who passed its purified energy through the link to strengthen the life inside the egg.
• Xu Xingyu used the Dragon God's Divine Power to suppress the egg's excessive life energy, and the Dragon Emperor slowed the transfer while absorbing the Dragon Core.
• The Dragon Emperor advanced toward Peak Saint Rank as the dragon egg trembled, cracked, and released their newborn daughter's first dragon roar.

Xu Xingyu discovered that the Dragon Emperor’s newborn daughter had inherited both yin and yang earth attributes and would eventually face the Earth Dragon King’s trials. He reviewed the godhoods still awaiting heirs but had no clear candidates for the Azure Dragon God or White Tiger God positions.

• The Dragon Emperor’s daughter hatched with seventh-rank cultivation, diamond-like scales, and both yin and yang earth attributes.
• Xu Xingyu sensed that the Earth Dragon King’s remnant soul had sealed core energy inside the Dragon Emperor and his daughter, making her the intended heir to the Earth Dragon King’s trials.
• The Dragon Emperor gained a deeper understanding of the earth element by refining the Dragon Core.
• Xu Xingyu reviewed the godhoods he had distributed and considered possible heirs for the remaining Sun God, Light Dragon King, Time Dragon King, and Fire Dragon King positions.
• Xu Xingyu struggled to find suitable heirs for the Azure Dragon God and White Tiger God positions, considering Da Ming, Huo Yuhao, Dai Luoli, and Soul Beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest or Five Elements Plane.

Xu Xingyu helped the Dragon Emperor and the Diamond Dragon King’s daughter hatch, and the newborn dragon grew attached to him as she ate her eggshell. The Diamond Dragon King asked Xu Xingyu to name her, and his unintentional suggestion of Sidong became her name, though Gu Qiuxi teased him about its romantic implications.

• The Dragon Emperor and his wife thanked Xu Xingyu for helping their daughter hatch, and the little dragon clung to him in gratitude.
• The little dragon grew too weak to reach her eggshell, so Xu Xingyu moved it to her with his Spiritual Power and watched her eat.
• The Dragon Emperor worried that his daughter admired Xu Xingyu’s beauty and might become even more taken with his dragon form.
• The Diamond Dragon King asked Xu Xingyu to name their daughter, and he accidentally said Sidong while thinking of the name from the original story.
• Gu Qiuxi teased Xu Xingyu about naming her after Dong'er and threatened to tell Sister Na'er, while the Diamond Dragon King approved the name Sidong.

After advising the Dragon Emperor and his wife on caring for their newborn daughter Sidong, Xu Xingyu agreed to investigate the Dragon Graveyard the next day. Vanessa led him and Gu Qiuxi to lavish guest quarters, where Gu Qiuxi realized they would be sharing a bed and announced her plans for the night.

• Xu Xingyu advised the Dragon Emperor to wait before severing his bloodline connection to Sidong and to let her recover with nutritious food instead of rigorous cultivation.
• Xu Xingyu and the Dragon Emperor agreed to postpone investigating the Dragon Graveyard until the next day, and the Dragon Emperor summoned Vanessa to guide the guests.
• Vanessa looked enviously at Sidong, while Xu Xingyu silently decided not to reveal what he knew about her stolen dragon eggs or interfere with events involving Ji Dong and Ya Lin'er.
• Vanessa showed Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi to extravagant guest quarters, then left them alone.
• Gu Qiuxi stopped Xu Xingyu from calling Vanessa back after he noticed the room had only one large bed, and teased him about their night together.

Xu Xingyu comforted Gu Qiuxi after she admitted that seeing Sidong’s family had made her long for a family of her own. He called himself her family, older brother, lover, and future husband, leaving Gu Qiuxi cherishing their private time and imagining their future child’s name.

• Xu Xingyu asked why Gu Qiuxi had been unusually forward, and she confessed that she envied Sidong’s family and wished for caring parents.
• Gu Qiuxi recalled that the Star Lord had created her from the Soul Beast Clan’s fortune and the Golden Dragon King’s energy, leaving her without blood relatives.
• Gu Qiuxi explained that she had clung to Xu Xingyu because he treated her as family rather than merely as an Emperor Auspicious Beast or princess.
• Xu Xingyu held Gu Qiuxi and told her he was her family, older brother, lover, and future husband.
• Gu Qiuxi enjoyed having Xu Xingyu to herself and privately considered names for their future child.

Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi met with the Dragon Emperor to discuss the danger at the Dragon Graveyard. After Gu Qiuxi proved she could tear through space, the Dragon Emperor agreed to show them the problem firsthand.

• Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi visited the Dragon Emperor, who explained that he had sent his wives to be with Sidong.
• The Dragon Emperor warned that the Dragon Graveyard mission was dangerous and questioned whether Gu Qiuxi could control space.
• Gu Qiuxi tore open space with her strength and speed, then reappeared behind the Dragon Emperor.
• The Dragon Emperor acknowledged Gu Qiuxi's unusual ability and said he would show them the problem at the Dragon Graveyard.

Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi entered the Dragon Graveyard and discovered that a spatial distortion caused by a descending small world had destroyed the resting place of former Dragon Emperors. They vowed to stop the power behind it and gained the Dragon Emperor’s offer of assistance.

• The Dragon Emperor led Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi into the Dragon Graveyard, where they sensed a familiar presence in the distorted sky.
• As the Dragon Emperor showed them the tombs, Xu Xingyu reflected on the Dragon Valley and grew more determined to accept his responsibility as the Dragon God's inheritor.
• The group reached a sealed spatial distortion where the Dragon Emperor explained that a small world had descended, swallowing the remains of countless former emperors.
• Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi promised to stop the power behind the distortion, and the Dragon Emperor offered to assist them.

Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi entered the unknown small world to investigate its connection to the Dragon Graveyard and search for missing Dragon Emperor remains. They arrived in a wasteland filled with dead dragons and recognized it as Dragon Valley’s tragic past.

• Xu Xingyu told the Dragon Emperor that the Dragon Graveyard and the small world were mutually attracting each other, and said he had guesses he wanted to investigate.
• Xu Xingyu gave the Dragon Emperor a dragon scale as a teleportation anchor and explained that he and Gu Qiuxi would enter the small world, partly to search for the missing Dragon Emperor remains.
• The Dragon Emperor opened a crack in the Five Elements Seal, and Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi entered as silver light before the Dragon Emperor restored the seal.
• Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi found themselves in a wasteland covered with dragon corpses and bones beneath circling Dragon Clouds.
• Xu Xingyu said the wasteland was how Dragon Valley should have appeared if he had not existed, while Gu Qiuxi noted how different it was from the future Dragon Valley.

Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi reached the center of Dragon Valley and encountered the Dragon God's Dragon Soul, which gave them three crystals. Xu Xingyu absorbed the Dragon God's Heart into a miniature space and advanced to Level 91, but found Gu Qiuxi had gone berserk under the Golden Dragon King Bloodline's control.

• Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi traveled through Dragon Valley, absorbing Dragon Clouds as they followed the growing concentration of powerful Dragon Souls.
• The pair reached the Dragon God's Dragon Soul, which roared joyfully at their bloodlines as the Dragon Souls across the valley bowed to it.
• The Dragon God's Dragon Soul released three crystals, and the Ruin Crystal Core merged into Gu Qiuxi while the Dragon God's Heart went to Xu Xingyu.
• Xu Xingyu used the Chaos Core to guide the Dragon God's Heart into a miniature space in his body, absorbing its energy without replacing his own heart.
• Xu Xingyu's Magic Power rose to Level 91, and he discovered that Gu Qiuxi had gone berserk under the Golden Dragon King Bloodline's control.

Xu Xingyu and Gu Qiuxi recovered from her Golden Dragon King bloodline eruption, and Xu Xingyu decided to create the Star Dragon Tower to help find the lost dragon remains. He explained how Dragon Valley worked and resolved to plant a seed for the future and his past self.

• Xu Xingyu subdued Gu Qiuxi’s bloodline eruption in a portable cabin, and she gained stronger control over her bloodline and formed a Golden Dragon Core.
• Xu Xingyu discovered he could use the Dragon God’s Heart to heal himself or enhance his strength.
• Gu Qiuxi asked whether they would search for the lost dragon remains, and Xu Xingyu said he would first create something to help them find them.
• Xu Xingyu identified the Star Dragon Tower as something Dragon Valley needed and concluded that he and Gu Qiuxi could create it.
• Xu Xingyu explained that Dragon Valley collected dragon remains and preserved the consciousness of those who could be resurrected, but its existence depended on the Dragon God’s Dragon Soul.
• Xu Xingyu blamed Tang San’s schemes for preventing the Dragon Clan from being resurrected and decided to plant a seed for the future and his past self.

Xu Xingyu fused with Gu Qiuxi and borrowed the Dragon God's remaining power to temporarily inherit the Dragon God Divinity. He used that power to begin building the Star Dragon Tower, then called on the Dragon Souls of Dragon Valley to help complete it.

• Xu Xingyu told Gu Qiuxi that the Dragon God's Dragon Soul could help them create the Star Dragon Tower, and they used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
• The Dragon God's Dragon Soul entered Xu Xingyu along with the creation crystal, letting him temporarily reach a level close to that of a Supreme God King.
• Xu Xingyu used his Divine Sense to locate the Dragon Ascension Pillar and shaped the Dragon God's bones into bricks for the Star Dragon Tower.
• After an hour, Xu Xingyu completed the tower's rudimentary form but realized the bones in Dragon Valley were not enough to finish it.
• Xu Xingyu called out to the Dragon Souls, urging them to contribute their strength to restore the Dragon Clan's glory.

Xu Xingyu used the Dragon Souls and Dragon Kings’ remains to create the Star Dragon Tower and the Divine Dragon Pool in Dragon Valley, then absorbed the Lightning Tribulation threatening the tower. He ended his Dragon God transformation, leaving the remaining Dragon God’s Power and the Dragon God’s Heart for Dragon Valley.

• Xu Xingyu gathered the Dragon Kings’ Dragon Souls and remains, and they fused with the Dragon Souls’ origin power to help form the Star Dragon Tower.
• Xu Xingyu summoned the Dragon Souls and their bones, buried them in the crater, and turned the nine-colored Dragon Clouds into rain to complete the Divine Dragon Pool.
• A nine-colored Lightning Tribulation descended to strike the Star Dragon Tower, but Xu Xingyu absorbed it with the Abyss.
• Xu Xingyu’s Dragon God power faded, and Gu Qiuxi separated from him as he returned to his original form.
• Xu Xingyu told Gu Qiuxi he had ended the transformation to preserve the remaining Dragon God’s Power and the Dragon God’s Heart for Dragon Valley and keep the past and future in order.

Xu Xingyu fused with three Dragon King Soul Bones and then condensed a Second Soul Core using Yin-Yang Complementarity. He succeeded in forming a Bloodline Soul Core, leaving him with two perfectly balanced Soul Cores.

• Xu Xingyu stored the Dragon Cores and several Soul Bones in the Star Dragon Tower, then fused with the Earth, Wind, and Time Dragon King Soul Bones.
• Xu Xingyu began condensing a Bloodline Soul Core in his chest while Gu Qiuxi stood guard and watched.
• When Xu Xingyu's Spiritual Soul Core disrupted the process, he chose Yin-Yang Complementarity to balance his two Soul Cores.
• Xu Xingyu controlled the clashing Power of Starlight and Radiance of the Sun until the energies reached perfect balance.
• Xu Xingyu successfully condensed his Second Soul Core, the Bloodline Soul Core.
