After a full day of exhausting running, Luo Xiang sat cross-legged in the courtyard of his own residence, inspecting the damage to his shattered dantian.

Meanwhile, Han Fei, bruised and beaten, had returned to his quarters. Ashamed of his defeat by Luo Xiang, the second young master of the Han Clan reported the incident to his older brother, Han Lu.

"Brother, aren’t you going to teach him a lesson?!" Han Fei protested, disappointed by his brother's indifference.

"Foolish brat. He can’t cultivate, so what are you so afraid of? And what happened to your face? You look like a pig," Han Lu said flatly, though clearly surprised.

A sly smile crept across Han Fei’s lips as he tried to provoke his brother further.

"Brother... he used poison powder to cheat. That’s the only reason he beat me!"

Han Lu's eyes narrowed. Though Han Fei was only at the early third-star Dao stage, even poison shouldn’t have left him this battered.

"Are you sure he cheated?" Han Lu’s voice turned cold.

Seeing that his provocation worked, Han Fei continued to fuel his brother’s anger.

After inspecting his ruined dantian, Luo Xiang sighed deeply. To heal it, he needed three rare ingredients, each unimaginably expensive—perhaps even costing a life to obtain.

"How am I supposed to find Divine Leaf Root, Heaven's Tear, and Eternal Ginseng in this continent?" Luo Xiang muttered.

As he despaired over the impossible ingredients, two figures appeared: Han Fei and Han Lu, along with their entourage, approaching Luo Xiang’s home.

"Trash! Look, I brought my brother! Are you ready to kneel and beg for forgiveness?!" Han Fei shouted arrogantly.

"Beg for forgiveness? You think I’d do that?" Luo Xiang replied, narrowing his eyes at Han Lu.

Why can’t I access this body's memories? Luo Xiang thought, puzzled.

"Do you remember how I crippled you once? Now that you’re healed, is that why you dared bully my little brother?" Han Lu asked, calm but with a piercing gaze.

"So, he’s the one who injured this body..." Luo Xiang muttered, becoming more alert.

"Why so silent? Are you scared I’ll cripple you again?" Han Lu mocked, his tone turning colder.

"Hahahaha... I hate being called trash. Even if you bring those moldy elders with you, I wouldn't hesitate to kill you all," Luo Xiang taunted.

"You bastard! You’re asking for death!"

Swuuuush!

Hot-tempered, Han Lu launched a qi-infused palm strike toward Luo Xiang. Just as Luo Xiang prepared to dodge, Luo Lan appeared and deflected the attack with a single finger.

Baaams!

The burst of qi energy spread through the courtyard as Luo Lan stood in front of her son.

"Are you alright, son?" she asked, then glared fiercely at the Han entourage.

"I’m fine, Mother," Luo Xiang replied.

She nodded but turned her sharp gaze toward the elders.

"Did you come to the Luo Clan just to bully my child?!" she said coldly.

"Tch! You rotten hag! If you have the guts, fight us! Stay out of the younger generation's business!"

One of the elders flew up and stopped just in front of Luo Lan. She smiled thinly.

Swuuuung!

"If you had come with good intentions, I would have welcomed you warmly. But now, I remember your young master once harmed my son! Leave. Now!"

A powerful energy surged from Luo Lan’s body. Sensing the Dao Ling fifth-star cultivation level, the Han elders shuddered.

"D-damn... Even together, we can’t defeat a Dao Ling expert!" one elder whispered.

"Tch! Useless trash..." Han Lu scoffed.

While the elders cowered before Luo Lan’s cultivation, Shen Luo Xiang grew concerned. If she used her Qi carelessly, the poison in her body could erupt.

"Mother, please calm down. I know my limits," Shen Luo Xiang whispered.

"Leave now! If I see any of you in Luo territory again, I’ll kill you myself," Luo Lan threatened.

"Tch! If the clan patriarch were here, would you still act so high and mighty?" Han Lu sneered before turning away.

Just as they were about to leave, Luo Xiang called out:

"Wait!"

Han Lu turned, a sly grin forming.

"Going to hide behind your mother again?" he mocked.

"HAHA! Of course not. I want to challenge you to a duel... one month from now!"

Han Lu and his group burst into laughter. Luo Lan, however, was alarmed.

"Are you kidding, son? You can’t even cultivate! Maybe you got lucky against Han Fei, but Han Lu is at the Dao Core fifth-star level!"

"Don’t worry, Mother."

"Fine! I accept your challenge! Come to the Han Clan. I’ll welcome you properly," Han Lu sneered.

"But remember—don’t expect to hide behind your mother during our fight."

Before Luo Xiang could respond, Luo Lan dragged him into the house.

Once inside the living room, she tried to reason with him.

"Are you sure about this, son?"

"Mother... I want to try. Please give me your blessing to train outside the clan."

"But with your condition..." Luo Lan hesitated.

Before she could continue, a familiar voice interrupted.

"Laner... If this is truly his wish, then fate will surely offer a path. Don’t worry."

"Father, but—"

Swuuuush!

An old man appeared, stroking his long beard. From his mysterious entrance, Luo Xiang was certain this grandfather was a powerful cultivator in the Heavenly Continent.

"Grandfather..." both Luo Xiang and Luo Lan greeted him.

"Enough. Sooner or later, Xiang’er must carry on your and his father's legacy. Will you really hold him back?" Luo Jin asked.

"Very well... I approve. Xiang’er, go prepare your things."

Luo Xiang nodded and returned to his room to pack.

As he finished, he overheard part of a conversation between his mother and grandfather.

"Grandfather, I still haven’t found any trace of Xiang’er’s father. Do you have any clues?"

"It may have been the Dark Army... but nothing is certain."

Luo Xiang was shocked. In his past life, the Dark Army had fought alongside the Sky Forces to destroy demons.

"Then the Luo Clan must be a powerful family. The original owner’s father must have been a respected figure..." Shen Luo Xiang thought. With no access to the original body’s memories, he knew he had much to learn on his journey.

"Tch... I can’t be selfish and chase only my revenge. I need to understand what this body’s purpose truly is..." he muttered, then stepped out of his room.

    Moving in a zigzag pattern, Luo Xiang unleashed his sword technique.“Phoenix Sword Dance!”With just a single technique, the tide of battle shifted entirely. Luo Xiang now dominated the fight. Every strike landed flawlessly, and Luo Xiang could clearly see Shen Nan’s face twitching—unable to keep up with his movements.He danced gracefully, showcasing the beauty of his sword arts. Shen Nan’s attacks faltered, and he was forced to pull back from the battle.“What? You’re already retreating after just a few techniques?”Shen Nan let out a bitter smile. It was clear that his combat experience could not compare to the true Sword God standing before him.“No wonder you were given the title ‘Sword God’... As expected, from the aspect of swordsmanship alone, defeating you is nearly impossible!”Right after speaking those words, Shen Nan withdrew his sword back into his spatial ring. Moments later, he closed his eyes as two completely different auras erupted violently from within his body.B

    Like a fleeting, formless shadow, Luo Xiang shot forward at peak speed toward the mysterious figure.On the other side, the three Elders finally snapped out of their daze after realizing Luo Xiang had departed.“L-look over there! Th-the Goddess!” Yin Daihe exclaimed, drawing every beastkin’s attention toward the eye of the resurrection formation of Goddess Su Hua.Indeed, Su Hua’s body was now bent forward, and the eye of the resurrection formation fired a golden beam into the sky. This ray signaled that Su Hua’s new spirit soul had been reborn perfectly. The beastkins could even feel the overwhelming aura rising from her—an aura that threatened their very existence.“H-her aura is so strong?! W-why is it so different from the previous Goddess?”“I don’t know… I-is this because we used dragon blood?”The beastkins whispered among themselves regarding Su Hua’s awakening. Yet none of them realized that a terrifying battle was about to erupt near Yin Qiyi’s Ghost City.Above the skies o

    The laws of heaven attempted to destroy what Luo Xiang was about to accomplish. However, a powerful barrier suddenly appeared, causing the heavenly lightning to explode midway. Although it managed to block one strike from the laws of heaven, mere seconds after heaven grew furious, the barrier crafted by the Dragon God ancestor cracked—and finally shattered into dust.Traaaack! Traaaack!“Xiang, do you have a death wish?! Leave now! While the laws of heaven are still gathering their divine thunder!”A faint smile appeared on Luo Xiang’s lips upon hearing the Dragon God ancestor’s concern. But in his first life—Shen Luo Xiang, the birth of the Sword God—everything had been orchestrated by the Fire God. Now, feeling his divine lightning reacting as well, and knowing his second life might not grant him the chance to become the Sword God again, Luo Xiang chose to follow his heart. He prepared to soar into the sky toward the incoming heavenly strike.“Young master, move away! That attack sh

    Not answering the ancestral request of the Dragon God, Luo Xiang now sat upon the surface of the Soul World’s ground. Moments later, the star energy that spread across the entire Soul World began to stir the moment Luo Xiang entered cultivation.“Sky-Devouring Dragon Technique!”Swuuuuuung!Inside the Soul World, madness erupted as he absorbed the scattered star energy. The energy that had begun to gather suddenly surged unnaturally into Luo Xiang’s body. How could this be? The Sky-Devouring Dragon Technique was, in truth, the most insane cultivation technique in the history of cultivators.To create this technique, Luo Xiang had studied countless Heavenly-rank cultivation arts. This was what stimulated his intelligence and monstrous talent. By comprehending every technique, Luo Xiang eventually managed to merge them all into one. In the end, the Sky-Devouring Dragon Technique was successfully created by Luo Xiang himself.If the Gods used inherited cultivation techniques passed down

    “Th-that jade in young master’s hand… isn’t it the Arhat Jade bestowed by the Sword God before the Goddess’s death?”“And that staff… I hope young master will grant it to us, for that staff symbolizes the authority of the demon world!”Luo Xiang nodded, a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips.“This staff I shall give you, but in return for reviving Goddess Su Hua. As for myself, I only ask to keep this Arhat Jade. You won’t object, will you?”The three demon elders exchanged glances, conversing telepathically. After a brief moment, they nodded in unison.“The Arhat Jade may be of use to us, but since young master desires it, we shall not contest.”Luo Xiang nodded again and handed the staff to Yin Qiyi. Observing the exchange, the Dragon God Ancestor furrowed his brows.“Why did you only ask for the Arhat Jade?” he asked via telepathy, puzzled.Luo Xiang gave a sly smile.“Good thing you asked through telepathy! Otherwise, they might have demanded back something far greater t

    Yin Han began unleashing punches into the air. As though time itself had frozen, within mere moments a vortex of Qi energy emerged from the void, followed by gales of wind sweeping against the colossal hand in the sky.The fluctuation of Qi energy, along with the violent gusts, spread with immense force. Even Luo Xiang was forced to retreat, flying back toward Su Hua’s remnant soul.“He’s far too strong… If only the Goddess had left me more energy, I could have killed him in a single strike!” Su Hua exclaimed, making Luo Xiang understand.“I never expected Yin Han and Yin Wei to have reached the Divine Stage either,” added Yin Qiyi, as Yin Daihe and Yin Lang appeared at Luo Xiang’s side.Luo Xiang gave a faint smile. “Indeed, the Divine Stage can destroy an entire Empire with a single move. But that does not mean… they are without weakness.”“D-does young master have a solution? Right now, only Qiyi has stepped into the Divine Stage!”Nodding, Luo Xiang fixed his gaze on Yin Han and Y
