Chapter 2792: Summary and Reflections

Summary of the Third Volume and Additional Notes

The third volume primarily focuses on the rise of the demon clan, featuring several key events. First, Cang Ming, the demon emperor, successfully unites the demon realms and then leads a million-strong army to attack the divine realms. However, they are utterly defeated by the divine army led by Jingyuan.

Second, after the battle, Jingyuan is critically injured and imprisoned in Kunlun Xu by the Demon Emperor Cang Ming.

Third, Zui Yuan, carrying the Divine Emperor's spiritual consciousness, ascends to godhood in the mortal world. He takes on the persona of a righteous cultivator named Gu Hanshan, and for a hundred years, he searches everywhere for Jingyuan's spiritual consciousness while simultaneously guarding the gates of Kunlun Xu.

Fourth, after being imprisoned, Jingyuan's soul is shattered, and her spiritual consciousness is released into the six realms, reincarnating as different beings.

Fifth, during this period, the divine generals under Jingyuan's command are either killed or injured in the war, or they choose to seek refuge in the mortal world and go into seclusion, waiting for Jingyuan's return.

Sixth, the Heavenly Emperor discovers that Jingyuan's reincarnation contains his spiritual consciousness, so he secretly dispatches celestial officials to intervene, attempting to lure Jingyuan to his side and manipulate her.

Seventh, after a hundred years of searching, Gu Hanshan finally finds a trace of Jingyuan's spiritual consciousness in the mortal world. Simultaneously, the Divine Emperor's spiritual consciousness within him has nearly recovered. However, just as he is about to retrieve Jingyuan's spiritual consciousness, the Heavenly Emperor's people intervene and take Jingyuan away.

Eighth, the Demon Emperor Cang Ming, after defeating the divine realms, discovers that Jingyuan's spiritual consciousness is incomplete and therefore cannot ascend to godhood. To consolidate his victory, he searches for Jingyuan's spiritual consciousness throughout the six realms, planning to destroy it completely to prevent her return.

Ninth, sensing the movements of the Divine Emperor's spiritual consciousness, the demons under Cang Ming's command, along with the immortals under the Heavenly Emperor's command, simultaneously converge on the mortal world to seize Jingyuan. This sets the stage for the main plot of the fourth volume, "The Demonic Sect."

Finally, a note on the names of realms: the "Six Realms" refers to the Divine Realm, Immortal Realm, Demon Realm, Ghost Realm, Human Realm, and Animal Realm.

Regarding the ending, some readers felt it was rushed. This is because the fourth volume focuses entirely on "The Demonic Sect" storyline.

The ending of the third volume is meant to lead into the fourth volume, where the main conflicts revolve around the Demon Emperor Cang Ming, the Heavenly Emperor, Gu Hanshan, and the reincarnated Jingyuan. The primary battles in the fourth volume take place in the human realm and are centered around the Demonic Sect. Jingyuan and Cang Ming also have significant development in the fourth volume.

The story is a gradual unraveling. The relationship between Jingyuan and Cang Ming will be fully explored in the future volumes. What are the true motives of the Demon Emperor? Why does he always target Jingyuan? Readers will have to wait for the upcoming volumes to find out.

As for Jingyuan and Zui Yuan (Gu Hanshan), their connection goes deeper than simply being a divine general and her protector. However, explaining it fully would reveal spoilers, so readers will have to continue reading.

In conclusion, this is just a summary of the third volume's main points. The relationships and future developments will be further explored in the upcoming volumes.
