Chapter Summaries

Chen Feng agreed to attend an AI symposium in Eagle Sauce Country, unaware that State Security planned to use the trip to test whether he was the superpowered figure who destroyed a fleet. Meanwhile, Zhang Xuan’s force prepared to attack the Heaven-Swallowing Demon King’s territory in the Black Sea.

• Chen Feng met with Li Xiaorou, arranged increased medicine production and supplies for Phantom Paint, and left her pills and a protective magical treasure.
• Liu Mu asked Chen Feng to attend the AI symposium in Eagle Sauce Country, and Chen Feng agreed to go with a diplomatic delegation.
• A State Security official told Liu Mu the trip was intended to see whether Chen Feng was the superpowered individual from the island battle, and Liu Mu decided to send a special operations squad to protect him.
• Zhang Xuan and Ge Yunxuan halted their Aerospace Carriers near the Heaven-Swallowing Demon King’s territory and waited for the warships before attacking.
• Zhang Xuan sent fighter jets to draw the Demon Beasts to the surface and held off on attacking until the Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts gathered for a missile strike.

Zhang Xuan led the fleet’s assault on a Demon Beast horde, while Zhengjiao arrived and frightened the enemy before the warships joined the battle. Elsewhere, Mo Yang finished reclaiming Bijiao’s territory and headed toward Horned Wing’s waters, where his force encountered another Demon Beast group.

• Zhang Xuan ordered two missile barrages that killed or wounded many Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts and threw the horde into chaos.
• Thorn Bull rallied the Demon Beasts and charged the aerospace carriers, while Ge Yunxuan led cultivators and the Azure Dragon Formation soldiers into battle.

• Mo Yang’s force reclaimed Bijiao’s territory, killing seven hundred Demon Beasts and gaining the surrender of the rest.
• Mo Yang led his force toward Horned Wing’s territory, where radar reported at least a thousand Demon Beasts led by a snake, and he ordered his people to prepare for battle.

Black Flood Dragon led Haili’s forces toward the Xingfeng Sect, only to learn that the sect had already taken two Demon Kings’ territories and then suffer its naval bombardment before being recognized as an ally. At the nuclear blast zone, Haili met Liu Qian and Chen Feng, who began investigating why the hydrogen bomb’s explosion had been unusually weak.

• Black Flood Dragon told Haili’s Demon Beasts that she was pretending to cooperate with the Xingfeng Sect, but a messenger reported that the sect had taken Demon King Bijiao’s and Tuntian’s territories.
• Mo Yang’s Aerospace Carrier bombarded Black Flood Dragon’s group until Black Flood Dragon shouted that they were allies, after which Mo Yang ordered the fleet to stop firing and let them follow.
• Haili arrived at the nuclear blast zone, met Liu Qian aboard the Luan Bird Aerospace Carrier, and said she had seen Tuntian and Tyrant Turtle fleeing the area.
• Yue Yao led nuclear factory workers in hazmat suits to investigate the blast zone while Liu Qian told Haili the Xingfeng Sect had taken nearly three territories.
• Chen Feng arrived, heard Liu Qian explain the battle and the hydrogen bomb’s weak blast, and concluded that another cause must have interfered with the explosion.

Chen Feng traced the hydrogen bomb’s reduced shock wave to the dangerous Black Abyss, then went to Moon Luminous Island to demand that the Heavenly Demon Sect hand over the wounded Demon Kings Tuntian and Tyrant Turtle. When the sect refused, Chen Feng threatened war, and the gathered powers faced an immediate crisis.

• Chen Feng learned that the hydrogen bomb had detonated normally and found that his Spiritual Sense was blocked by the Black Abyss, which filled him with foreboding.
• Chen Feng left Liu Qian in charge of the Black Sea and traveled with Haili to Moon Luminous Island to deal with Tuntian and Tyrant Turtle.
• Luo Ming told the Luo Clan that five major Demon Kings had fallen and that the wounded Tuntian and Tyrant Turtle had sought refuge with the Heavenly Demon Sect.
• Elder Qi ordered Ku Xiaotian to collect three hundred thousand mortal Divine Souls to help the Demon Kings recover, while Ku Xiaotian renewed his desire for revenge against Chen Feng.
• Chen Feng arrived at the Heavenly Demon Sect and demanded that it hand over Tuntian and Tyrant Turtle as Luo Ming, Jian Wuji, and nearly twenty Golden Core cultivators gathered there.
• Elder Qi refused Chen Feng’s demand, and Chen Feng declared that the Xingfeng Sect would go to war if the Heavenly Demon Sect would not surrender the two Demon Beasts.

Chen Feng forced the Heavenly Demon Sect to surrender the Heaven-Swallowing Demon King and the Tyrant Turtle Demon King, then killed them and left to prepare for a future attack on the sect. Xingfeng Sect finished conquering the Black Sea, and the chapter ended as its leaders reviewed the spoils and Mo Yang’s battle record.

• Luo Ming and Jian Wuji tried to stop Chen Feng from starting a war, but Elder Wang used the sect master's command token to order the Heavenly Demon Sect to hand over the Heaven-Swallowing Demon King and the Tyrant Turtle Demon King.
• Chen Feng destroyed both Demon Kings’ Divine Souls, and Luo Ming and Jian Wuji recognized that he had reached Golden Core.
• Luo Ming told Jian Wuji that he had secured Xiao Ling’s protection and a formation, and the two planned to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect within two months.

• Xingfeng Sect completed its Black Sea campaign, killing over thirty thousand Demon Beasts, capturing nearly forty thousand, and suffering losses that included seven warships, two aerospace carriers, and over a thousand people.
• At the postwar meeting, the Internal Affairs Pavilion reported the spoils and said Mo Yang’s army had taken four Demon King territories, killed eleven thousand Demon Beasts, and captured fifteen thousand.

Chen Feng and the Xingfeng Sect consolidated their conquest of the Black Sea, while news of their victory spread across Moon Luminous Island and raised the sect’s standing. After rewards were distributed to the fighters, Chen Feng inspected a newly opened factory producing Wound Healing No. 1 in the Northern Border industrial park.

• Liu Qian deferred the assessment of Zhang Xuan and Mo Yang’s contributions to the sect master and continued discussions about taking over the Black Sea.
• Haili introduced Chen Feng to the Black Flood Dragon and the other Demon Beasts, who accepted the Xingfeng Sect; Chen Feng appointed Haili to command the Black Sea’s Demon Beasts and serve as an elder of its branch.
• News that the Xingfeng Sect had conquered the Black Sea spread across Moon Luminous Island, prompting smaller forces to send envoys and Qu Jing to prepare a trade visit to Yingzhou.
• The Xingfeng Sect distributed Contribution Points to those who fought, allowing them to obtain resources and cultivation methods from its treasury.
• Chen Feng visited the industrial park with Liu Qian and entered the factory that had begun producing Wound Healing No. 1.

Chen Feng inspected the Xingfeng Sect’s factories, handled several matters with Liu Qian, and prepared to return to the modern world. In western Yingzhou, Wang Hu defeated the Uma Tribe and began leading his expeditionary army home after learning the sect had taken the Black Sea.

• Liu Qian reported that the pharmaceutical factory produced about eighty thousand Wound Healing No. 1 capsules daily and had secured a steady supply of medicinal herbs.
• Chen Feng visited the factories, reminded Yue Yao to prioritize hydrogen bomb production, and told her to delegate responsibility for the second-generation power armor.
• Chen Feng instructed Liu Qian to prepare an offshore base in the Black Sea, give Wang Hu a plasma pistol when he returned, and award Zhang Xuan and Mo Yang two thousand Contribution Points each.
• Chen Feng said he would enter seclusion for one or two months before returning to the modern world for cultivation, an AI conference, and satellite purchases.

• Wang Hu ordered some of his forces to remain and secure the region while the rest of his expeditionary army began its journey home.

Chen Feng returned to the modern world, sensed Lin Wei’s early cultivation progress, and absorbed Venus’s Star Energy rather than risk hastening the Moon’s destruction. His renewed cultivation drew worldwide attention, while intelligence agencies linked the mysterious light source to him and prepared further investigations.

• Chen Feng sensed that Lin Wei had reached the Second Layer of Qi Refining, then traveled above Earth to cultivate.
• Lin Wei felt Chen Feng’s Spiritual Sense during a meeting and approved Harvey’s plan for a fusion power plant in the Golden Triangle.
• Chen Feng chose to absorb Venus’s Star Energy, fearing that drawing on the Moon would hasten its destruction and endanger Earth.
• As Chen Feng cultivated, space agencies detected the returning light source, and NASA director Paul shared its coordinates with CIA director John.
• John connected the light source’s locations to the island and the Golden Triangle, then hurried away to report his suspicions.
• Liu Yang’s team concluded that both light source incidents were connected to the mysterious man and planned further investigation in the Golden Triangle and of Chen Feng.

Chen Feng traveled to Eagle Sauce Country with a diplomatic delegation while State Security monitored him, and the Xingfeng Sect prepared for a battle on Moon Luminous Island. The Luo Clan and Sword Inquiry Sect attacked the Heavenly Demon Sect, ending with the Sword Inquiry Sect summoning a Nascent Soul Sword.

• Chen Feng flew toward Eagle Sauce Country with Wang Bin, while Liu Yang and State Security experts watched him and arranged protection.
• Liu Qian ordered Haili to prepare and sent two thousand Azure Dragon Formation soldiers to the Black Sea after learning the Luo Clan and Sword Inquiry Sect had attacked the Heavenly Demon Sect.
• Mo Yang joined Wang Hu at the Black Tortoise Formation training ground, where Wang Hu explained that the Xingfeng Sect would wait and watch the battle.
• Luo Ming and Jian Wuji led a combined force against the Heavenly Demon Sect, whose sixteen Golden Core cultivators faced twenty-one enemy Golden Core cultivators.
• Luo Ming used the Imperial Heaven Bell against Elder Wang, while Elder Qi countered with the Heavenly Demon Flag.
• Jian Wuji ordered the Sword Inquiry Sect disciples to summon their ancestor's sword, and Elder Wang recognized its cry as that of a Nascent Soul Sword.

The Sword Inquiry Sect revealed its Nascent Soul ancestor’s sword, but the Heavenly Demon Sect answered with a Blood Sha Infant that Ku Xiaotian used to reach Nascent Soul-level power. Ku Xiaotian headed for the Sword Inquiry Sect, intent on defeating the sword before taking revenge on Chen Feng and the Xingfeng Sect.

• Jian Wuji confirmed that the Sword Inquiry Sect’s ancestor had reached the Nascent Soul Realm, and the ancestor’s sword emerged from the sect’s highest peak.
• Xiao Ling and True Lord Kongyou watched from the clouds as Elder Wang ordered the Heavenly Demon Sect to summon its ancestor’s trump card.
• The Heavenly Demon Sect activated a Blood Sha Infant with the Golden Core experts’ blood, but Ku Xiaotian put it into his own body instead of letting Song Ran take the sacrifice.
• Ku Xiaotian gained Nascent Soul-level strength and teleportation, while Luo Ming warned that his power was only temporary.
• Ku Xiaotian headed toward the Sword Inquiry Sect, vowing to defeat its sword and then take revenge on Chen Feng and the Xingfeng Sect.

Ku Xiaotian used the Blood Sha Infant’s power to overwhelm the Sword Inquiry Sect and exhaust its Nascent Soul Sword, leaving the sect in ruins. Instead of following Elder Wang’s order to attack the Luo Clan, he flew toward the Black Sea to prepare to deal with the Xingfeng Sect.

• Ku Xiaotian broke through the Sword Inquiry Sect’s formations and battled its Nascent Soul Sword, while disciples fled and the sect’s peaks crumbled.
• Luo Ming and Jian Wuji watched from a distance, then withdrew with their people toward the Luo Clan as the sword weakened.
• Elder Wang and Elder Qi arrived with Heavenly Demon Sect cultivators and urged Ku Xiaotian to attack the Luo Clan after he exhausted the sword.
• Ku Xiaotian sent the Nascent Soul Sword crashing into the ground, then ignored Elder Wang’s order and flew toward the Black Sea to make preparations against the Xingfeng Sect.
• Elder Wang realized Ku Xiaotian intended to deal with the Xingfeng Sect and feared he might not return from the distant journey.

Ku Xiaotian abandoned his plan to attack the Luo Clan and raced toward the Xingfeng Sect, prompting the sect to evacuate its Black Sea base. In the modern world, Chen Feng arrived in Eagle Sauce Country with a diplomatic delegation and prepared to return to the Painting Scroll World from his hotel room.

• Ku Xiaotian ignored Elder Qi's summons and headed for Yingzhou, while the Luo Clan learned he had gone after the Xingfeng Sect and set out to warn them.
• Liu Qian ordered Elder Haili to withdraw the Black Sea troops, and Haili evacuated the base's people aboard three aerospace carriers while the Demon Beasts scattered.
• John and the CIA watched Chen Feng arrive in Eagle Sauce Country, but Chen Feng spotted them and left the airport with Wang Bin's delegation.
• Liu Yang's State Security team concluded Eagle Sauce Country had shown no unusual reaction to Chen Feng and continued guarding him at Blair House.
• Chen Feng checked his hotel room for surveillance, set up an illusion array, and planned to return to the Painting Scroll World.

As Ku Xiaotian approached Yingzhou with Nascent Soul combat strength, Chen Feng returned to the Xingfeng Sect and devised a risky plan to teleport nuclear bombs directly in front of him. To strengthen the plan, Chen Feng decided to obtain additional warheads from Eagle Sauce Country’s nuclear arsenal.

• Liu Qian ordered the Xingfeng Sect’s forces to evacuate the sea bases and destroy the Black Coast teleportation array so Ku Xiaotian could not use it to reach Yingzhou.
• Liu Qian told the Cabinet that Chen Feng was missing, while Wang Hu proposed using nuclear bombs against Ku Xiaotian; Liu Qian warned that Ku Xiaotian could detect and evade missiles.
• Chen Feng suddenly appeared in the Cabinet, heard what had happened, and told the others to prepare for battle before withdrawing to a secret chamber.
• Chen Feng asked Zhengjiao about the gap between Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators and learned that nuclear bombs could hurt a Nascent Soul cultivator under the right conditions.
• Chen Feng ordered Yue Yao to prepare every Xingfeng Sect nuclear warhead, then planned to teleport a bomb directly beside Ku Xiaotian and detonate it.
• Chen Feng decided the sect’s stockpile was too small and returned to the modern world, where he planned to raid an Eagle Sauce Country nuclear arsenal.

Chen Feng infiltrated Eagle Sauce Country’s nuclear arsenal at Kitsap Strategic Missile Base and used Soros to gain access. He collected all four hundred nuclear warheads, including seven high-yield MK-18 warheads, while the alarm brought soldiers into the arsenal.

• Chen Feng used Soul Search on General Kenny at Andrews Air Force Base and learned the location of the Kitsap Strategic Missile Base.
• Chen Feng controlled Professor Soros with the Soul Control Technique and followed him through the base’s security checkpoints into the nuclear arsenal.
• Chen Feng identified seven MK-18 warheads with a yield of seven million tons and destroyed the arsenal’s cameras.
• Chen Feng collected all four hundred nuclear warheads in three Storage Bags and set up an illusion array.
• The alarm sounded, and soldiers entered the arsenal to find Soros beside the undamaged radiation monitoring equipment.

Chen Feng evacuated the Xingfeng Sect’s forces and confronted Ku Xiaotian alone in the Great Forest, using a nuclear bomb after Ku Xiaotian overwhelmed him with Nascent Soul power. Ku Xiaotian survived by teleporting away, and Chen Feng concluded that nuclear bombs needed improvement to threaten Nascent Soul cultivators.

• Chen Feng left the nuclear arsenal after soldiers detained Soros and discovered the damaged cameras.
• Ku Xiaotian destroyed the Xingfeng Sect’s sea base, spared its warships, and continued toward Yingzhou while Luo Ming and the Heavenly Demon Sect arrived afterward.
• Haili and Zhang Xuan evacuated the last personnel and equipment from Yingzhou, and Haili damaged the teleportation array to slow Ku Xiaotian.
• Chen Feng confronted Ku Xiaotian in the Great Forest, where Ku Xiaotian attacked him with enormous hands formed from Spiritual Qi.
• Chen Feng escaped through the modern world, dropped a 360,000-ton nuclear bomb beside Ku Xiaotian, and returned safely as Ku Xiaotian teleported clear of the blast.
• Chen Feng reappeared after the explosion and decided he would need to improve nuclear bombs to harm Nascent Soul cultivators.

Chen Feng repeatedly attacked Ku Xiaotian with nuclear bombs while using an unexplained ability to vanish and reappear, leaving the outcome of their battle uncertain. Meanwhile, the Xingfeng Sect’s leaders faced losses and unrest, and Ge Yunxuan chose loyalty to the sect over evacuation.

• Ku Xiaotian cast a combined lightning-and-rain spell across a vast area, but Chen Feng appeared behind him and detonated a million-ton hydrogen bomb that injured him.
• Chen Feng continued vanishing and detonating nuclear bombs near Ku Xiaotian, forcing him to teleport away as the battle spread across the Great Forest.
• At the Xingfeng Sect’s monitoring center, Liu Gan and the others watched the explosions while Mo Chen reported that the Heavenly Demon Sect had seized thirty-four warships from the sea base.
• Wang Hu reported that cultivators in the Northern Border were becoming restless, but Liu Qian told everyone to focus on Chen Feng’s battle with Ku Xiaotian.
• Ge Tianli urged Ge Yunxuan to evacuate, but Ge Yunxuan refused, ordered the Ge Household to remain loyal to the Xingfeng Sect, and prepared to suppress lineages that defected.

Chen Feng defeated Ku Xiaotian, but the Blood Sla Infant emerged from Ku Xiaotian’s corpse and drew down Purple Firmament Divine Lightning. After escaping the blast and returning to the Xingfeng Sect, Chen Feng announced Ku Xiaotian’s death and ordered preparations to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect.

• Haili and the Black Flood Dragon watched Chen Feng’s battle with Ku Xiaotian from a distance and wondered whether Chen Feng could win.
• Chen Feng detonated two megaton nuclear bombs, shattering Ku Xiaotian’s protective light and leaving him mortally wounded.
• Ku Xiaotian died, and the Blood Sla Infant emerged from his Dantian as Purple Firmament Divine Lightning descended from the sky.
• Chen Feng escaped to the modern world to recover, then returned to find the battlefield quiet and the Blood Sla Infant gone.
• Chen Feng appeared at the Xingfeng Sect’s satellite monitoring center and told everyone that Ku Xiaotian was dead.
• Chen Feng ordered the Xingfeng Sect to prepare an attack on the Heavenly Demon Sect and planned to strike its Golden Core Cultivators when they entered Yingzhou.

After Chen Feng prepared the Xingfeng Sect to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect, Ge Yunxuan confronted Murong Ren’s group of cultivators who planned to flee Yingzhou. Their battle was interrupted by Wang Hu, who announced that Chen Feng had already slain the Nascent Soul Cultivator and ordered the sect’s forces to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect.

• Chen Feng gave Yue Yao nuclear warheads to prepare for breaking the Heavenly Demon Sect’s protective array, then learned from Zhengjiao that Purple Firmament Divine Lightning could descend against beings that defied life and death.
• Murong Ren led about two hundred cultivators out of the Northern Border, believing the Xingfeng Sect would fall, while they criticized Ge Yunxuan for refusing to join them.
• Ge Yunxuan and the Ge Household intercepted Murong Ren’s group and declared they would arrest the cultivators for defecting; Murong Ren ordered his people to attack.
• The Ge Household used modern firearms to fight back, and a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s Gatling gun killed two of Murong Ren’s Foundation Establishment allies.
• Wang Hu arrived with dozens of aerospace carriers and ordered the gathered forces to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect; he told them Chen Feng had already slain the Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Wang Hu arrested Murong Ren and the other traitors while Ge Yunxuan gathered Northern Border cultivators to join the fight. After learning Chen Feng had killed Ku Xiaotian, the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Golden Core cultivators entered the Great Forest, where Chen Feng ambushed them and left six survivors facing his next attack.

• Wang Hu ordered Murong Ren, Fairy Azure Wave, and their companions arrested, then sent Ge Yunxuan to gather Northern Border cultivators for the march on the Heavenly Demon Sect.
• Luo Yinxue learned from Liu Qian that Chen Feng had slain Ku Xiaotian, so Luo Ming’s group waited outside Yingzhou rather than enter.
• The Heavenly Demon Sect’s Golden Core cultivators reached the Great Forest, found a vast stretch of scorched, cratered land, and realized something had gone wrong.
• Chen Feng appeared and confirmed Ku Xiaotian was dead, then detonated a nuclear bomb that killed several Golden Core cultivators and injured the survivors despite Elder Wang’s Heavenly Demon Flag.
• Elder Wang recognized that Ku Xiaotian was truly dead and began burning his flesh and Divine Soul to unleash the Heavenly Demon Flag as Chen Feng attacked again.

Chen Feng defeated the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Golden Core cultivators at Yingzhou, claimed the Heavenly Demon Flag, and confirmed that Ku Xiaotian was dead. After Luo Ming and Jian Wuji acknowledged the Xingfeng Sect’s strength and yielded the Heavenly Demon Sect’s territory, Chen Feng left to check on the modern world, where Eagle Sauce Country had likely discovered the stolen nuclear bombs.

• Elder Wang and Elder Qi burned their bodies and Divine Souls to help the other Heavenly Demon Sect cultivators escape, but Chen Feng killed them with three nuclear bombs and took their damaged Heavenly Demon Flag.
• Zhengjiao identified the Heavenly Demon Flag as a Pseudo Spirit Treasure, and Chen Feng pursued the fleeing Lu Feng and Lu Huo, killing both brothers and placing Lu Feng’s Divine Soul in Zhengjiao’s Soul Coffin.
• Chen Feng met Luo Ming and Jian Wuji, confirmed that Ku Xiaotian was dead, and agreed that the Xingfeng Sect would attack the Heavenly Demon Sect despite its ties to True Lord Kongyou.
• Luo Ming and Jian Wuji left Yingzhou, while Luo Yinxue stayed behind to order goods and accepted Chen Feng’s offer of a ride to the Northern Border.
• Chen Feng arranged for a dharma vessel to take Luo Yinxue north and prepared to return to the modern world to check whether Eagle Sauce Country had discovered the stolen nuclear bombs.
