Chapter Summaries

Rog advised Purple Blood on whether to pursue the Path of Destruction or Fusion Laws, explaining that Fusion Laws could surpass the ceiling of a single Law but were exceptionally difficult to master. Seeing Purple Blood’s commitment to the path, Rog gave him a Wind Source Pearl, leaving him with a valuable aid for cultivating the Laws of Wind.

• Rog said Purple Blood would likely achieve more by focusing on the Edicts of Destruction, given his exceptional killing aura.
• Purple Blood asked whether cultivating a single Law or fusing Laws offered the higher ceiling, and Rog said Fusion Laws might surpass even a single-element Paragon.

• Purple Blood admitted he had devoted most of his effort to Fusion Laws despite his weaker talent for the Laws of Wind.
• Rog gave Purple Blood a Wind Source Pearl, explaining that it had been of no use to him since he obtained it after killing Gustav.

Rog gave the Purple Blood Fiend the Wind Source Pearl, allowing him to pursue the fusion of Wind and Destruction laws. After a century of cultivation, Purple Blood returned vastly stronger and sought an audience with Rog.

• Rog explained the Wind Source Pearl’s powers and gave it to the Purple Blood Fiend, warning him to keep its nature secret.
• Rog asked whether Purple Blood understood the balance required for Fusion Laws, and Purple Blood vowed he could destroy Miluo Island within a century.

• Keluoyin sensed Purple Blood’s changed aura as he announced his visit to the Prefect.

After breaking through with Rog’s help, Purple Blood returned to Miluo Island to take revenge and destroyed its defending Seven-Star Fiends. The surviving members of the five great clans faced despair as the island’s defenses collapsed.

Purple Blood destroyed the five great clans of Miluo Island, cementing his reputation as a formidable killer. Meanwhile, Rog continued researching Divine Beast bloodlines and began considering ways to strengthen his body.

• Purple Blood and the Shadow Alliance wiped out the five great clans of Miluo Island, leaving no members alive.
• Purple Blood's slaughter of the clans' elite fighters made him famous throughout the Infernal Realm, though Mosi had not appeared for a direct battle.
• Rog's Light God Clone discovered that Divine Beast bloodline fusion depended on compatibility and the vessel's capacity for essence blood.
• Rog concluded that directly using essence blood to wield an innate divine ability required far more research than fusion did.
• Rog considered investigating body strengthening, noting how Orloff and several powerful beings had improved their bodies through different methods.

Rog traveled to the Light God Plane to study the Laws of Material with help from a light-element Divine Beast. He arrived at the Divine Prison Sea, where he met Tyrant and Claude, and Abraham observed his approach from Jiafeng Island.

• Rog appeared before Tyrant and Claude, and Claude learned from Tyrant that Rog was a Paragon High-God acknowledged by a Sovereign.
• Rog said he had come mainly to see Tyrant but would meet their eldest brother first, while Abraham watched them from Jiafeng Island and recognized Rog.

Rog visited Jiafeng Island to study Tyrant, a Light Jade Beast whose body grew stronger by absorbing light energy. After finding that he could not fuse with Tyrant’s essence blood, Rog considered imitating the beast’s flesh-and-blood structure.

• Abraham greeted Rog on Jiafeng Island and allowed him to study Tyrant as long as he did not endanger his brother.
• Rog settled on the island, leaving Tyrant apprehensive about being studied again while Claude hoped to receive Rog’s guidance.
• Rog watched Tyrant absorb Light Divine Power and realized that the Light Jade Beast’s bodily strengthening might be possible to replicate.
• Rog tried fusing with a drop of Tyrant’s essence blood but found that his body was incompatible with the Light Jade Beast’s bloodline.

Rog learned that Beirut had appeared on the Blood Peak Continent and sent others to find him. Bulwo Redding used Sovereign's Might to locate Beirut, setting up a confrontation.

• Elmira told Rog that a hidden mission had uncovered Beirut, who had defeated Seven-Star Fiend Tuya with a long staff.
• Rog watched the battle and concluded that Beirut's powerful body, rather than superior mastery of the Laws, had secured his victory.
• Rog decided to travel to the Blood Peak Continent while Beirut wondered why so many powerful experts were searching for him.
• Bulwo Redding searched the area with his companions and used Sovereign's Might to find Beirut hiding in a cave residence.
• Bulwo found Beirut and prepared to capture him, hoping to earn Rog's favor.

Beirut fought off Azure Dragon Clan experts who had come to capture him, killing their leader Bulwo with his God-Eater ability and several others with his staff. He decided to flee the Blood Peak Continent, but a familiar golden figure appeared before him.

• The Azure Dragon Clan experts demanded Beirut surrender, and Beirut decided to attack before they could use Sovereign's Might against his soul.
• Beirut used God-Eater to strip Bulwo of his Godspark and kill him, then charged the remaining clan members.

• Beirut killed several Azure Dragon clansmen with his staff, while the survivors scattered and escaped using Sovereign's Might.
• Beirut resolved to leave the Blood Peak Continent, then confronted a golden figure whose face seemed familiar.

Rog approached Beirut and commissioned a spear forged as a four-element fusion Divine Spark Weapon, offering Sovereign’s Might in exchange. As Rog considered how the weapon might help him understand four-element fusion, he also wondered whether his arrival would alter Linley’s fate.

• Rog revealed that he had been seeking Beirut to ask him to forge a Divine Spark Weapon.
• Rog specified a spear made from earth, wind, water, and fire High Godheads and gave Beirut a spatial ring with materials and three drops of Sovereign’s Might.

• Rog wondered whether his arrival would affect Linley’s birth and future Four-Element Soul Mutation.

Rog demonstrated his new Lightning Law move, Extreme Point Instant Lightning, to Claude and explained how his Paragon strength and powerful soul let him compress vast lightning power into a single point. The chapter ended with Rog considering how Abraham could use his Three-element Soul Mutation to develop similarly powerful techniques, though Abraham remained far below a Paragon.

• Claude asked Rog for advice on combining the Profound Mystery of Electromagnetic Space with the Judgment Profound Mystery.
• Rog gathered lightning across a three-thousand-li sphere and instantly compressed it into a point, unleashing an attack that tore a vast rift through the sky and drew up the Divine Prison Sea.
• Rog named the technique Extreme Point Instant Lightning and left Claude marveling at its precise control.
• Rog considered how his powerful soul let him unleash and control the technique instantly, while other Lightning Paragons such as Ninisha could not match his precision with Sovereign's Might.
• Rog thought Abraham could develop formidable ultimate moves because his Three-element Soul Mutation had strengthened his talent across the Life, Water, and Light Laws.

Rog received the Divine Spark Weapon Beirut forged from Godsparks of four elements and named it the Black Serpent Spear. When he tested it against the Bronze Door, its faint reaction confirmed his suspicion that the door required Origin Energy.

• Abraham recalled Claude’s ultimate attack and concluded that only becoming a Paragon could overcome the gap between him and Paragon High-Gods.
• Rog reflected on his progress in the Laws of Light, with the Profound Mysteries of Holiness remaining the hardest obstacle to fuse.

• Rog named the spear Black Serpent and rewarded Beirut with two drops of Sovereign’s Might, after which Beirut left Tianhua Prefecture.
• Rog brought the Black Serpent Spear to the Bronze Door and observed it react faintly, suggesting the weapon carried an aura of Origin Energy.

Rog considered ways to obtain Origin Power and prepared to pursue the seventh Overgod Artifact. In the Netherworld, Hayden, driven by revenge after Kazilote destroyed his Death Divine Clone, decided to expose the Death Demonic Tome to draw powerful enemies against Kazilote.

• Rog concluded that fusing four elemental energies would be difficult and considered whether treasures such as the Heart of the Netherworld contained Origin Power.
• Rog judged the seventh Overgod Artifact the most promising path and had already made preparations to track the Nine Spirit Orbs and other related treasures.
• In the Moore Mountains, Hayden swore to kill Kazilote, who had destroyed his strongest Divine Clone and ruined his hopes of advancing further.
• Hayden decided to publicize the Death Demonic Tome so experts, including Sovereigns, would target Kazilote.
• Hayden planned to spread some of the tome’s patterns first to prove that it was real.

Hayden sent a hundred Highgod warriors across the Netherworld to spread mysterious patterns from the Death Demonic Tome, promising their freedom if they succeeded. As his squads departed, Hayden decided to abandon the Moore Mountains and hide in an unfamiliar Material Plane.

• Hayden threatened his Highgod subordinates and promised to free them if they spread the patterns successfully.

• The diagrams attracted Seven-Star Demons, Prefect-level experts, and several Sovereigns, and began spreading to other Divine Planes.
• Yindisi visited the Snowmist Sovereign, who discussed the diagrams and the possible Overgod Mission with Harrington.

Hayden arranged for Jerryan to offer the Death Demonic Tome to anyone who killed Kazilote, after spreading designs that aided practitioners of the Death Rule. The bounty drew attention across the Netherworld, and Kazilote decided to flee to Snowmist Island while several Sovereigns watched the situation.

• Hayden told Jerryan to spread word that whoever killed Kazilote would receive the Death Demonic Tome.
• Wende showed Rog the designs, and Rog recognized their resemblance to designs left by Makenrich.

• Several Sovereigns had already located Kazilote but held back from killing Snowmist Sovereign's emissary themselves.

Kazilote fled Black Mountain Prefecture, but Chiwei intercepted him in the Keermo Mountain Range and fought him with his spear. After more than a hundred clashes, Kazilote was badly shaken and injured, while Chiwei remained poised to finish the fight.

• The Snowmist Sovereign left Kazilote's fate to Harrington, who had already begun arranging for people to intercept him.

• After more than a hundred exchanges, Kazilote suffered internal and soul injuries, and Chiwei asked whether his power had run out.

The Sovereign of Death sent Rog to kill Kazilote and obtain the Death Demonic Tome, while Chiwei nearly defeated Kazilote with his strongest attack. As Chiwei moved in to finish him, Rog fired his Light of God-Slaying from afar, leaving its strike racing toward the battle.

• The Sovereign of Death ordered Rog to kill Kazilote and offered him Sovereign's Might as a reward for obtaining the Death Demonic Tome.
• Rog left Haidisi and hurried toward Kazilote's battle with Chiwei.

• Rog and the black-haired Francis approached as Chiwei prepared another attack, but Rog realized Kazilote might not survive until they arrived.
• Rog gathered Lightning Sovereign's Might and fired Light of God-Slaying, sending a purple beam racing toward Chiwei and Kazilote.
