Chapter Summaries

Rog watched the final battle for the Aoqi Plane, where the three Star River Passages became deadly battlegrounds for the Wind Sovereign's camp and the Lightning Sovereign's camp. When Langsiluo unleashed a pair of opposing lightning serpents, Rog realized they revealed a principle he had been seeking.

• Colin and Gu Rory joined the fighting, while Rog, Haidisi, and Difan watched from the left passage.
• A white-robed commander used Sovereign's Might to kill dozens of soldiers, including nearly killing Colin, and Rog identified him as Yolande.
• More than a thousand soldiers killed a red-armored young man with successive Soul and material attacks, prompting Difan and Rog to note how vulnerable commanders were in the battle.
• Langsiluo appeared and attacked with purple and azure lightning serpents that ravaged the space around them.
• Rog recognized the serpents as yin and yang forces producing Electromagnetic Space, and became absorbed in the discovery.

Rog watched Langsiluo’s lightning techniques and gained new insight into the Profound Mystery of Electromagnetism, including its uses in attack and defense. While the battle continued across three passages, Haidisi and Difan realized Rog was having an epiphany.

• Rog understood how the opposing yin and yang lightning forces could break down matter and strengthen soul defense, and considered whether attraction and repulsion might be controlled like Amethyst Space.
• Langsiluo used Violet and Azure Electric Serpents to slaughter wind camp soldiers in the left passage, while Hamilton and the wind camp’s emissary struggled to respond.
• Two identical commanders from the Divine Wind Plane unleashed Double-Eye of the Storm in the middle passage, sweeping away lightning camp soldiers and securing an advantage for the wind camp.
• The wind camp held the advantage in the middle passage and the lightning camp in the left, while the evenly matched forces in the right passage fought without a clear victor.
• Haidisi and Difan noticed Rog staring upward and wondered if he had reached an epiphany.

Rog emerged from his enlightenment having developed new methods, though he had not advanced in fusing the profound mysteries. The Wind Sovereign faction won the expedition, and the surviving soldiers began their return.

• Rog’s enlightenment gave him inspiration for new Electromagnetic Space methods, but he remained far from fusing the sixth profound mystery or reaching the Paragon realm.
• After the Divine Wind Plane’s brothers Dilano and Delano helped break through the central passageway, the Wind faction routed the Lightning faction in the right passageway as well.
• With two passageways lost, Langsiluo’s forces retreated from the left passageway, and the Wind Sovereign faction won the expedition.
• Colin and Gu Rory returned alive with enough Soldier Badges between them to exchange for two drops of Sovereign’s Might.
• Haidisi and Difan welcomed the survivors, while Rog remained in enlightenment until he opened his eyes and rejoined them.

Rog and his companions returned from the expedition, claimed their rewards, and set out to visit other planes. Rog and Haidisi reached the Divine Lightning Plane, where the chapter ended at Violet Lightning Peak.

• Bazel directed Rog and his companions to Anpusha’s commander desk, where they recorded their merits and Rog received Sovereign’s Might.
• Rog gave his reward to Colin, and the five survivors left the Fiend Castle for home aboard a metallic lifeform.
• Gu Rory decided to visit the Water Divine Plane, while Haidisi asked to travel with Rog and he agreed.
• Rog’s original body and Divine Clones merged in Tianhua Prefecture, and Difan departed to return to his clan.
• Rog and Haidisi set out for the Divine Lightning Plane and arrived at Violet Lightning Peak on the Yifan Continent.

Rog and Haidisi traveled through the Divine Lightning Plane toward the Thunder Abyss, admiring its scenery as they went. Nearby, the dangerous Addison Mountain Range slaughtered a group of god-level travelers, while Rog and Haidisi unknowingly approached it.

• Rog and Haidisi arrived at Violet Lightning Peak, where Golden Lightning Army soldiers recognized them as powerful Highgods before they flew away.
• Rog and Haidisi traveled toward the Thunder Abyss, and Rog considered the dangers of the golden lightning sea and the Sovereign said to dwell beyond it.
• Haidisi admired the Orange Sea while steering their metal lifeform, and the pair continued across the Divine Lightning Plane.
• Several dozen god-level experts flew over the Addison Mountain Range, where thousands of purple lightning bolts killed them and the range swallowed their belongings.
• Rog and Haidisi approached the Addison Mountain Range aboard their metal lifeform, unaware of its danger.

Rog and Haidisi were attacked by Addison, a purple-skinned mountain-dwelling special lifeform who was immune to lightning energy. Rog used a Godspark as a projectile in his Light of God-Slaying, pierced Addison’s chest, and left him defeated and shaken.

• Addison ambushed Rog and Haidisi with lightning currents erupting from the mountain, but Rog’s electromagnetic barrier blocked them.
• Addison formed five World Destruction Thunder Dragons, and Rog redirected them, only to discover that Addison was immune to lightning attacks.
• Rog unveiled his Light of God-Slaying and launched a lightning Lowgod Godspark at Addison.
• Addison shifted his life core but could not dodge the Godspark, which pierced his chest and continued into the mountain.
• Addison conceded defeat after the attack nearly struck his life core.

Rog defeated Addison, a lightning-immune purple-skinned creature, with his double-layer Ring of God-Slaying and discovered Addison’s enormous original form was a Thunderhorn Behemoth. He collected the behemoth’s body and planned to forge one of its three powerful horns into a spear.

• Rog introduced himself to Addison and refused to let him escape after Addison admitted defeat.
• Rog unleashed thirty-six Godsparks in a double-layer Ring of God-Slaying and pursued Addison with his divine sense as Addison fled.
• Rog’s Godsparks pierced Addison’s body and shattered his life core, killing him.
• Rog identified Addison’s original form as a Thunderhorn Behemoth and collected its body, noting that its three horns could make powerful divine artifacts.
• Rog fashioned one of the lightning horns into a spear while Haidisi admired the behemoth’s enormous form.

Rog and Haidisi reached Thunder Sacred Mountain, where Rog’s Voidbreaker Divine Spear absorbed lightning and grew stronger as he climbed. Rog entered the golden Thunder Abyss, survived its first strike with the spear’s help, and prepared to face the lightning directly.

• Rog named his lightning-absorbing longspear Voidbreaker after Haidisi suggested he give it a name.
• Rog and Haidisi reached Thunder Sacred Mountain and began climbing through its sea of white lightning.
• The Voidbreaker Divine Spear absorbed lightning, transformed several times, and strengthened as Rog climbed toward the summit.
• Haidisi retreated when the gray lightning near the summit became too dangerous, while Rog continued to the top with the spear’s protection.
• Rog jumped into the golden lake of the Thunder Abyss, blocked a powerful golden lightning bolt with Voidbreaker, and judged that he could withstand further strikes.

Rog endured the Thunder Abyss’s golden lightning to deepen his understanding of the Laws of Lightning and forge three powerful divine spears. He left without crossing the golden mist, having found a path toward becoming a Lightning Paragon, while the mysterious Sovereign observed him.

• Rog set aside the Voidbreaker Spear and endured repeated strikes from the golden lightning to comprehend the Laws of Lightning.
• Rog identified points of compatibility among all six profound mysteries and realized his ultimate techniques still lacked a complete fusion.
• Rog forged two more divine spears from the Thunderhorn Behemoth’s horns, using more than three hundred additional drops of Sovereign’s Might to nurture the weapons.
• Rog concluded that the three spears could rival Sovereign Artifacts and left the Thunder Abyss without crossing the golden mist.
• The mysterious Sovereign noticed Rog’s training and weapons but did not invite him to become an emissary.

After leaving the Thunder Abyss, Rog traveled with Haidisi toward the western continent. He captured Bodun, a Lightning Element Beast pursued by Gunther’s followers, and reconsidered the danger after Bodun sent him surprising information.

• Rog descended Thunder Sacred Mountain and told Haidisi they would travel to the western continent before returning to the Infernal Realm.
• Bodun fled a large pursuing group and spotted Rog and Haidisi’s metal life-form, hoping to use them to delay his pursuers.
• Rog caught Bodun with a golden hand formed by his capture technique.
• Charles and a dark elf woman demanded that Rog hand Bodun over, invoking Lord Gunther’s name.
• Bodun sent Rog a Soul Transmission with information that made Rog willing to risk offending even an expert suspected of being a Paragon High-God.

Rog rescued Bodun from the Seven-Star Fiends pursuing him, killed them, and accompanied Bodun back to the Kawa Material Plane. After arriving, Rog took control of the planar overseer Rupert and ordered him to open the Paerlun Planar Prison.

• Rog freed Bodun and warned Charles and the others to leave, but killed all six Seven-Star Fiends when they refused.
• Rog took Bodun to the Black Cloud Gorge teleportation array, while Haidisi returned to the Infernal Realm with two Voidbreaker Spears.
• Rog and Bodun paid to travel from the Divine Lightning Plane to the Kawa Material Plane.
• Rupert greeted Bodun, who angrily accused him of lying about the dangers of the divine plane.
• Rog used Soul Control on Rupert and ordered him to open the entrance to the Paerlun Planar Prison.

Rog entered Paerlun Planar Prison with Bodun and sought out Aide, the Fate King, after sensing his unusual armor. Rog offered Aide a choice: surrender the armor and leave with him, or lose both his life and the armor.

• Rupert opened a passage to Paerlun Planar Prison, and Rog brought Bodun inside with him.
• Rog surveyed the barren prison with his divine sense, alerting Aide, Baturu, and Cloy to his overwhelming power.
• Rog and Bodun headed for Fate King's City while Bodun explained Aide's strength and armor.
• Aide waited for Rog, hoping the newcomer might offer a way out of the prison.
• Rog confronted Aide and demanded his armor, giving him the choice of surrendering it or dying.

Aide offered Rog the Golden Spirit Battle Armor in exchange for escape from Paerlun Planar Prison, and Rog accepted after confirming its defenses. As Rog prepared to leave, Cloy and Baturu sought permission to accompany him as subordinates.

• Aide agreed to surrender the Golden Spirit Battle Armor if Rog demonstrated his strength, and Rog struck him with the Voidbreaker Spear empowered by Lightning Sovereign's Might.
• The armor stopped Rog's material attack without injuring Aide, revealing itself as a Material Defense Sovereign Artifact; Aide then surrendered it rather than face Rog's Soul Attack.
• Rog claimed the armor, bound it with his blood, and concealed it beneath his robe before deciding to leave the prison.
• Cloy asked Rog to take him along and offered to follow him for ten billion years, while Aide protested that Cloy had not paid for the opportunity.
• Rog accepted Cloy on those terms and said Baturu could come under the same conditions; Cloy went to fetch him.

After freeing Aide, Cloy, and Baturu from Paerlun Planar Prison, Rog took them toward the Infernal Realm. Meanwhile, Gunther accepted Charles’s account of Rog’s challenge and announced he would travel to Tianhua Prefecture to fight him, drawing the attention of experts across the planes.

• Baturu agreed to follow Rog, who opened the prison exit and led Aide, Cloy, and Baturu onto a material plane.
• Bodun warned the three former prisoners about the dangers of higher planes, while Rog reassured them that their strength was formidable unless they faced a prefect-level figure.

• Experts across the planes prepared to travel to Tianhua Prefecture to witness the battle between Gunther, a suspected Paragon, and Rog.

Rog accepted Gunther’s challenge for a battle at Sarnoki Mountain Range in three hundred years, drawing the attention of experts across the Infernal Realm. As the gathering grew into a major event, Rog’s Lightning Divine Clone returned with Bodun and the others and began traveling back to Tianhua Prefecture.

• Rog accepted Gunther’s challenge and chose Sarnoki Mountain Range as their battlefield.
• Aiken learned of the challenge and decided to help save Rog if necessary, partly because Rog had given him the Voidbreaker Divine Spear.

• Experts from across the Infernal Realm and the other divine planes began traveling to Tianhua Prefecture to watch the battle.
• Rog’s Lightning Divine Clone returned to the Infernal Realm with Bodun and the other three and set out for Tianhua Prefecture.

Rog returned to the Glais Continent after learning that Wald had been killed, while the killer, Balai Fulangyide, absorbed Wald’s Godspark. Rog then lost contact with his Lightning Divine Clone, but when contact returned, he learned of an astonishing opportunity and set out for the continent again.

• Rog left Bodun and the others to continue to Tianhua Prefecture after discovering that Wald had been killed.

• The connection between Rog’s Divine Clones returned, and he learned of an extraordinary opportunity before sending his light-element Divine Clone and Saint Domain True Body toward the Glais Continent.

Rog studied the bronze door and used a body-tempering method to strengthen himself before his duel with Gunther. At the Sarnoki Mountain Range, Rog and Gunther faced each other after both arrived at speeds that stunned the watching experts.

• Rog kept the bronze door’s secret and concluded it could only provide a special environment for now, though its former owner’s teachings could help him.
• Rog tempered his original body with divine power, but the resulting physical improvement proved limited for someone pursuing Paragon in the Lightning Law.
• Three hundred years later, Rog returned to the Infernal Realm and waited for Gunther near Tianhua City.

• Daphne told Claire that Gunther was powerful enough to threaten her, while Rog set out for the duel with renewed confidence.
• Rog appeared opposite Gunther so quickly that the crowd was stunned, and Aiken reconsidered how predictable the duel’s outcome was.

Rog and Gunther began their battle above the Sarnoki Mountain Range, trading blows that revealed Gunther’s astonishing transformed strength. Gunther then activated Lightning Sovereign’s Might with perfect control, leaving Rog to wonder how he could wield it without letting any power escape.

• Rog darkened the sky across the region and unleashed a lightning-based soul attack, but Gunther dismissed it with his Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact.

• Gunther charged into close combat, and Rog blocked his golden-flamed fists with the Voidbreaker Spear as their battle tore through the planar space.
• Gunther's enhanced speed let him land several blows on Rog, but the Golden Spirit Battle Armor absorbed the damage, while Rog struck Gunther with his spear in return.

Rog used the Bronze Door’s power through his Lightning Domain to restrain Gunther and exile him into Spatial Turbulence. With Gunther gone, the stunned spectators watched Rog prepare to leave.

• Gunther admitted he could not defeat Rog and proposed ending their fight in a draw, but Rog refused.
• Rog opened a spatial rift and activated his Lightning Domain, which used a trace of the Bronze Door’s power to immobilize Gunther.
