These are the significant events in 1,181 to 1,190 raw chapters presumably equivalent to 2,321 to 2,340 in English version: 

1.       Sun Ting refused the favor offered by her uncle Dugu Hongyu for she knew the real intention. Seeing that Sun Ting was in a dilemma, Darryl offered her his help. Sun Ting was happy hearing that Darryl could help her. Dugujing mocked Darryl implying that Darryl knew nothing about Shenglong. Everyone think that Darryl was just bragging. Instead of paying attention to everyone’s comments, Darryl took out his mobile phone and quickly sent a message to Peng Kai.

2.       Meanwhile, Sun Boye instructed his servants to prepare food and wine. Soon, the wine and food were ready but only good for four sets. Darryl was not included. Dugujing asked Darryl to leave. But before he finished speaking, Peng Kai arrived. Hearing Peng Kai’s arrival, everyone was shocked and was very impressed with Dugu Hongyu. The people assumed that Peng Kai visited the Sun residence because of Dugu Hongyu’s influence. Dugujing was very proud. Sun Ting was also stunned. She didn’t expect that Peng Kai would come and visit their home.      

3.       Under everyone’s attention, Peng Kai walked straight to Sun Ting and politely greeted her and apologized for not meeting her the other day. He then informed her that the business partnership has already been signed. Sun Ting was flattered and confused. She could not believe that her dream of partnership with Shenglong became a reality. Everyone who heard this admired Dugu Hongyu even more. Dugu Hongyu was unspeakably happy. Dugu Hongyu then walked over, smiled, and greeted Peng Kai. Peng Kai simply smiled and then looked away and walked straight looking for Darryl. Seeing this scene, people were wondering about the situation. They could not understand why Peng Kai seemed to ignore Dugu Hongyu and yet respectful towards Sun Ting. When Peng Kai approached Darryl, the people were speechless. They now started to figure out that Peng Kai visited the Sun residence not because of Dugu Hongyu, but because of Darryl. They were even more shocked when they heard Peng Kai addressing Darryl as “Brother,” bowed respectfully to him and said that he followed what Darryl ordered concerning the business partnership with Sun Ting. The people could not believe that it was actually Darryl who invited Peng Kai to come. Dugujing was also in shock. He could not understand how an impostor could actually invite a very influential person like Peng Kai.    

4.       Dugu Hongyu’s face was extremely ugly. Sun Boye also could not believe that Peng Kai called Darryl his brother. Peng Kai then introduced Darryl to everyone saying that the man in front of him is the hero of World Universe, the Lord of Tianmen Sect, the Emperor of Westrington, and his eternal brother. He even said that without Darryl, there would be no Shenglong Technology. The people could not believe that the man they ignored and mocked earlier is the real Darryl. They looked at Darryl and didn’t know what to say especially Sun Boye, Dugu Hongyu, and Dugujing. Sun Ting on the other hand was very happy.

5.       To save face, Dugu Hongyu ordered his son to apologize to Darryl. Dugu Hongyu could not afford to offend a man with Darryl’s stature. Left without choice, Dugujing followed his father and begged for Darryl’s forgiveness.  Darryl then went straight to talk to Dugu Hongyu about his main purpose for coming to Central Yuan. Dugu Hongyu could still not believe the matter about the Raksha tribe. Darryl said that Yang Jian would not agree to halt the war if the threat was not real. And besides, Yang Jian even sent Gonggong just for this matter. Dugu Hongyu was convinced and promised to send a manpower soon to the Chaos Mountains. Seeing Dugu Hongyu’s response, Darryl was happy.

6.       After that meeting, Darryl took a rest. While Darryl was soundly asleep, Gonggong sneaked into his room. At last, Gonggong found the opportunity to kill Darryl. However, when Gonggong was about to stab Darryl, she hesitated. She was worried that the Southern Cloud Continent, the World Universe, and the Westrington Continent would be in chaos. She also hesitated after knowing Darryl’s personality for staying with him in just a few days. Gonggong didn’t know that Darryl was already awake and pretending to be sleeping and just waiting for Gonggong’s action. Observing that Gonggong was not taking any action, Darryl sat up and smiled at Gonggong asking her what she’s doing in his room. Gonggong was surprised and told Darryl that she wanted him dead. Darryl moved fast and tapped Gongong’s acupuncture points. Darryl then asked her why she wanted to kill him. At first, Gonggong was stubborn and did not respond. But when Darryl carried her to the bed and told her that she would sleep with him if she would not reveal the reason why she wanted him dead, Gonggong was alarmed. She finally revealed that Yang Jian sent her to assassinate Darryl.            

7.       Darryl could not understand why Yang Jian wanted him dead in the midst of an impending threat from the Raksha tribe. Gonggong explained that Yang Jian considered Darryl his greatest threat to rule over the nine continents. Without Darryl, Yang Jian would certainly rule over the entire mainland.  Hearing this, Darryl was disgusted. He then quickly unlocked Gonggong’s acupuncture points. He then told Gonggong that if Yang Jian wanted him dead, let him do it openly. But Darryl was worried about Gonggong’s fate if she would return to North Moana reporting that her mission failed. He then invited Gonggong to come Chaos Mountains with him. Gonggong told Darryl that he should not worry about her. After saying this, she picked up her dagger and left.

8.       After leaving the room, Gonggong went to the courtyard outside. She saw a tee with a small flag pinned on it. She recognized that it was the flag of North Moana army. She pulled of the flag and left Sun’s house. Outside, Gonggong saw other similar flags. She followed them and was guided to a forest. As soon as she arrived at the forest, Zhang Jiao appeared. Zhang Jiao asked Gonggong about her mission. Gonggong told Zhang Jiao that she failed. Hearing this, Zhang Jiao came up with a plan. He asked Gonggong to cooperate with him. Gonggong didn’t like the idea, but she could not turn down Zhang Jiao’s plan.

9.       The following morning, Darryl woke early. He asked Gonggong if she was really returning to North Moana. Gonggong said yes. Darryl then told her to part ways after reaching the mountain. While they were walking in the woods, they saw a man with a broken leg. It was part of Zhang Jiao’s plan. Darryl wanted to help the man. Gonggong wanted to warn Darryl. The man asked Darryl to bring him home. Darryl carried him. Darryl observed that the man was holding a few herbs in his hand. Darryl asked the man about the herbs. The man came up with an excuse. As Darryl reached the man’s house, he was shocked to see a woman and two children who were very afraid. This is the man’s family. They were taken hostage by Zhang Jiao in order to trap Darryl. Suddenly, Zhang Jiao appeared and hit Darryl’s heart with his palm. Darryl immediately urged his internal force to protect his body, but he flew more than 10 meters, hit a tree, and fell to the ground. The man cried and apologized that he didn’t really want to hurt Darryl, but he was forced by Zhang Jiao. Seeing that Darryl was injured, Zhang Jiao laughed. He told Darryl that the herbs carried by the man with a broken leg was actually meant for Darryl to suppress his strength. Once a cultivator smells it, its power will be suppressed. Hearing this, Darryl burned with anger. He suddenly felt that an invisible force was suppressing his internal strength. Darryl panicked. Zhang Jiao took this as opportunity to rush to Darryl and kill him. Darryl summoned his Fang Tian’s Halberd. Seeing the weapon, Zhang Jiao was all the more motivated to kill Darryl to take the weapon for himself. After half an hour, still Zhang Jiao could not overpower Darryl.             

10.   Finally, Zhang Jiao found the opportunity and slapped Darryl’s back with his palm. Zhang Jiao confidently announced that the day of Darryl’s death has finally arrived. To protect himself, Darryl took his Linglong Pagoda and summoned You Yan and hundreds of powerful men. At the same time, he also used his Bailian cold fire. Darryl had to use all his cards for he was afraid that there might be a backlash for he was supposed to cross to the Heaven Ascension level, but the herbs were preventing it. Seeing the Bailian cold fire, Zhang Jiao panicked.

11.   Since Zhang Jiao was stopped by You Yan and other powerful men from Linglong Tower, he could not do anything to kill Darryl. And so he called Gonggong to kill Darryl. Now that Darryl was severely injured and without someone to help him for all of Darryl’s men were fighting with Zhang Jiao, it was very easy for Gonggong to kill Darryl. Gonggong hesitated. She apologized to Darryl but finally decided to slap him with her palm. Due to the impact of Gogonggong’s palm, Darryl rolled down toward the hillside, fell into a turbulent river, and disappeared. In reality, Gonggong did not stimulate her internal force when she attacked Darryl. She just wanted Zhang Jiao to see that she hit Darryl. And since Darryl’s life was critical, You Yan, the Bailian cold fire, and the powerful men from Linglong Tower also disappeared. Zhang Jiao was happy. Knowing that Darryl was affected by the herbs while at the stage of crossing to heaven Ascension, hit by Gonggong and fell into the river, Zhang Jiao believed that Darryl’s death was certain. He then told Gonggong to return to North Moana.

12.   On the other side of the vast sea, finally Long Zang and Ambrose were able to see Donoghue within the Giuxu sea area. This part of the sea is mysterious, very dangerous, and is full of whirlpool. They saw Donoghue standing on the back of a giant shark and chasing a girl who belongs to a sea shark tribe. People in sea shark tribe wear fish scales and they were called sea mackerel people. Donoghue, seeing Long Zang and the pirates, gave up the pursuit of the sea mackerel girl.  Long Zang told Ambrose to rescue the girl while he himself would face Donoghue. The girl is actually a princess from the Haima clan. Her name is Hai Ling’er.

13.   While Long Zang and Donoghue were in fierce fight, they unconsciously approached the huge whirlpool. Long Zang was caught by it and disappeared. Donoghue escaped.  He didn’t want to fight Ambrose for his internal strength had not fully recovered. The pirates, thinking that their leader was dead, decided to Appoint Ambrose as their new leader. However, the right-hand man of Long Zang was not pleased with the decision. Instead, he challenged Ambrose. As they fought, the pirate was defeated and begged Ambrose’s forgiveness. Instead of killing him, Ambrose gave him another chance.         

14.   After the fight, Ambrose decided to enter the depths of the Guixu sea hoping that Long Zang is still alive. Hai Ling’er offered Ambrose her help for she was familiar with the place. Ambrose was happy and grateful. Ambrose never thought that he could encounter a beautiful girl like Hai Ling’er in this part of the sea. In his heart, Hai Ling’er is so beautiful like his mother, Yvette, and Eira. Eira, knowing that Ambrose was attracted to Hai Ling’er, told him to confess his feeling before the girl would return to her clan.  

15.   On the bank of a river, miles away from Tianzhong City in Central Yuan Continent, Darryl finally woke up. He felt that it was as if he was in a state of coma and had a long dream. What shocked Darryl was the disappearance of his internal strength. He tried to regain his strength by cultivating, but after some time, nothing happened. Thinking of what’s going on in the Chaos Mountains, Darryl was extremely sad for losing his power.   

16.   On Chaos Mountains, hundreds of thousands of people from the mainland were already gathered. They were from Tianmen Sect, the Ouyang family, various sects in the World Universe, Southern Cloud, Westrington, Yellow Sea, and the Central Yuan. Yu Wenyan, Yu Wenji, the Dugu family and others were also there as well as the monks from Lingyin temple under Moroyah’s leadership. On the other side of the mountain, another hundreds of thousands of North Moana army were assembled. Knowing that Darryl was already dead, Yang Jian was very happy. He then flew into the air and announced that the forces of the nine continents should unite against the Raksha tribe under the command of Zhang Jiao. Dax replied that they should wait for Darryl. Everyone agreed for all the continents except for North Moana wished that Darryl should be in command instead of Zhang Jiao. Hearing the response of the eight continents, Zhang Jiao frowned. He warned everyone that the Raksha tribe is about to strike and Darryl is still not showing up. Hearing this, the people are alarmed. Dugu Hongyu looked at Gonggong and asked her about Darryl since both of them went to Central Yuan Continent. Gonggong was worried. She didn’t know how to explain the situation. In order not to expose the planned assassination of Darryl, she came up with an excuse. She said that they parted ways after leaving Tianzhong City and that Darryl had an important thing to do. Darryl’s men were more puzzled for they didn’t know anything more important than the crisis in Chaos Mountains.

17.   While everyone was thinking about Darryl, they suddenly saw someone very weak and tired approaching the mountain. It was Darryl. Darryl’s face was pale and he was limping. Seeing Darryl’s condition, everyone was shocked. They asked Darryl what happened to him. Yang Jian, Zhang Jiao, and Gonggong were frightened to see Darryl still alive. Darryl refused to tell the truth for he was more concerned about the security of the nine continents. Yang Jian was also ready to kill Darryl if he would expose the assassination. Darryl explained that the reason for the disappearance pf his internal strength was because of his failure to breakthrough in his power level. Darryl’s women including Yvette, Yvonne, and Little Fairy assisted Darryl to take a rest.
