  2. if not for you guys, i couldn’t read this piece of art. thank you for your hardwork, im considering to donate, but i dont have the money 🙁

  3. what happens after chapter 2008? i dont see any scheduled chapters after that, are you guys taking a break? and if so for how long?

  6. For the people who read raw: When does it pick up the pace, it’s been quite a bit slow paced since YK entered the star boundary.

  8. i cant wait for the new chapters, i’ve read a lot on other websites but their translation is stupid, is there any recommendation where i can find more, its fine even if i have to pay

  9. Umm Ch2084 has been uploaded by now, but on the index page, the links only go up to Ch2088? I even checked the page for Ch2089 which of course showed “Not found” but it also did not show the title of the chapter. So, are you guys stopping with the translations? Or has one volume of MP come to an end by Ch2088 and the next one will be uploaded soon?

  10. Thanks for all the hard work. Much better than reading MTL versions. I sometimes wonder if I am reading the same thing as other people when I read chapter comments.

  12. My 2 cents for translators and editors:

    Although you seem to have improved your translation speed, it seems to have come with a decrease in quality. Starting from at least the last 50-60 chapters, there appear to be many typos, missing words, and other editorial mistakes.

    Mistakes such as “lots of origin king realms” instead of “origin king realm masters/cultivators.” etc., are common.

    I have just wanted to point these out. Translation quality does not seem to have dropped. It is just these editorial mistakes, missing words, etc.

  14. I just remembered, yang kai has an item that can change his appearance which is good for disguise or for hiding, can’t remember if it is destroyed or not, if not then why doesn’t yang kai use it, can someone recognize him when he use it even if he has high cultivation? Or someone might recognize him because the grade/rank of that item is low?

  15. Do you guys know what happened to Yang Kai’s golden skeleton and his ice and fire demonic flames qi? IT disappeared somehow suddenly after he started cultivating 5 elements body tempering art without any explanation by the author.

    It was stated too many times before that his skeleton is golden, which also belonged to the great demon god. But a few dozen chapters back, when he got injured, the author wrote his skeleton was white!

    Also, when he was in the ash-gray cloud evil land when the demon general mong ke(or something I forgot) was descending to that place his golden skeleton was easily able to absorb demon qi but now his skeleton cannot do that? And no explanation is given by the author.

    1. I think the five elements sword qi replaced his ice and fire demonic qi because it’s of a higher grade. I have no explanation for his skeleton turning back white, but as far as absorbing demonic qi is concerned it might simply be a matter of grade. The previous demons Yang Kai encountered were all inferior to Great Demon God, but this last demon is stronger than a Great Emperor! It would be absurd if he could absorb it just like that.

      1. Yeah, those are reasonable explanations, especially the one related to the demonic qi’s grade. But I do not know, man; there are too many inconsistencies that I forgot to add to my first comment.

        The most prominent one is that yang kai has an ancient divine golden dragon’s source energy(which, according to the novel, the most powerful and noble dragon race, golden dragons), and he was able to turn himself into a real golden dragon back in the Tong Xuan realm by using that source energy. He even experimented with that ability and fought some saint realm masters during the fight between the dragon sect, the sect that used joyous unification art as their main cultivation art, and its neighboring sects.

        But when he went to the starry sky. he stopped using it, and now he is using a monster race cultivation art to use that ancient golden dragon source? I mean, was not he already able to use that energy in the first place?

        Also, Yang Kai literally has an ancient golden dragon’s source energy, but when he got a dragon scale from that purple something sect in the starry sky, he got shocked because he thought dragons were the stuff of legends? Also, recently when he learned about the dragon island and that token in the star boundary, he again thought dragons were the stuff of legends? I mean, seriously, dude, you cannot be that stupid. Before that, you even saw a divine spirit as well, so why be dumbfounded about everything. Has yang kai(author) really become that stupid?

        I wonder if the author explained these things and I just forgot about them, or am I the only one wondering about such inconsistencies?

          1. Thank you for your hard work and explanation; I thought it was a real bodily transformation during that fight. Guess I was mistaken about it.

          2. Lol also that doesn’t explain why he ain’t using that technique now, he was able to easily owerpower higher level cultivators with that projection style, as you said, transformation.

          3. Forgive me for not giving face and failing to see with my dog eyes here. If it was a projection, why did it state in the chapter that Yang Kai got wounds in the same place as the Dragon got wounded? This only makes sense if Yang kai took the form of the dragon, no?

        2. It a little confusing, but I believe Chi yue kind of explains it and said that all the true ancient divine spirits are no longer existing, and so only their sources remain as diluted bloodlines of their descendants of the monster race, or just pieces scattered in the universe to be found, like the one Shan qing luo found.

          Since the true ancient divine beasts don’t exist, the current strongest beasts are also called the ancient divine beasts, but they are actually the Variant divine beasts, which are derived from the original divine spirits, and are inferior, but still much more powerful than all the other monster beasts.

          Hope that made at least a little sense.

          1. because of this Yang is surprised to find actual dragon remnants and learn that theres actually an entire island with dragons, which were said to be extinct, or hidden.

            Since these existences themselves were so rare its extremely rare and lucky to find remnants of any dragon, much less a whole island of living dragons so close with humans

        3. As far as I’m aware there are some problems but they might be caused by translation and the author not knowing how the story will play out later. From what I can tell about the golden dragon source is that YK just absorbed thousands of years of stored power to be able to use the golden dragon projection ability and it was strong enough to fight saints but after that point it’s strength grew with him and therefore didn’t necessarily surpass his normal means as it was only an unmastered projection. He also creates the demonic flame that can crawl across someone and erase them which is more useful and convenient for battle but that ability is forgotten shortly after becoming a saint king. The author likes to portray YK as someone who doesn’t assume he knows the answer so he often doesn’t make the obvious guess but this is probably for tensions sake in the story. YK talking about dragons being myth or legend has context to it. It’s not that he thinks they don’t exist it’s that they haven’t been seen alive in far beyond thousands of years so finding traces of them is like finding Thors hammer. Most of it is for dramatic effect and often enough the author forgets some stuff or changes his focus. The transformation stuff from Chi Yue is supposed to make yang kai into a half monster race not just a guy with a faded ancient dragon divine spirit floating around. I made a mess of this because there is too much to remember and explain but if you had the context laid out before you it would seem at least a little more clear and the rest would be the author just focusing on progressing a story however he can.

    2. also this is just my theory, but the golden skeleton basically just gave YK a really strong physique right?

      So I thought it makes sense if, later when he was able to begin cultivating the golden blood, what was actually happening was that he was able to transfer the immense vitality of the skeleton into his blood, which makes it a lot more versatile to use, especially since it fused with his saint Qi, which means now he has many ways to utilize that strong vitality, like qi.

      Well it sounded cooler to think of it this way, not sure what the author intended.
      But this also explains why his skeleton is now normal.

      1. Yeah, these are all reasonable explanations but would it not be good if the author explained these explicitly or showed these?I mean, in writing, there is a saying, “do not tell but show”. In this novel the author neither shows nor writes about these possible explanations, leaving us wondering why there were such inconsistencies and trying to come up with reasonable explanations to counter those inconsistencies.

      2. Also that golden skeleton was. It only able to give him a strong physical body but it acted as an evil qi/demonic qi container. When yang k ai used his devil transformation technique he would utilize the qi inside his skeleton, and the author wrote for more than once that the skeleton was like a bottomless pit interns of qi capacity.

        Now that you mentioned it yang boy also stopped using his black book as well remember that?

        1. hmm but since his golden blood fused with his demon qi doesn’t it seem like his blood is basically the golden skeleton in another form?

          I hope the black book comes back into play, I mean YK just basically used it as storage. I agree the author should be explaining more, there are a lot of loose ends.

          1. Yang Kai fused his Yang qi and demonic qi to create the demonic flames …

            His demonic flames are not mentioned anymore tho 🙁

  17. Exactly, I think yang kai should have been able to dig into black book more, I feel like it was left too early, and from the writings back then the inheritance did not seem complete to me. Like there would be new abilities in the later pages of the book but it was not mentioned again.

    1. I believe he stopped using the black book after he found the world bead. That and the first origin king he met, Gui Bei or whatever his name is saw the book immediately which made him want to use something else.

      As for the abilities in the book, he used quite a bit, but the more powerful people he meets the less effective those abilities became. He still uses some things from the Demon King like the eye and the blood, but he’s upgraded his body several times since the golden skeleton which is I assume why his bones are white again.

      Dragon Transformation and the Demon King things become much more relevant again later on in the series though (not translated on here yet).

      1. Oh that is good to hear, I mean his main planet tong xuan realm must have a special place in the past (tens of thousands may be millions od years ago) that has connections to either star boundary or the realm higher than that.

        Otherwise it is impossible to explain why seven coloured lotus, dragon and Phoenix sources and demon race(which obviously so not exist in the starry sky and so far in the star boundary) all existed in that small planet.

  18. Hello, I’m new here so, 1st, Hi to everybody and many thanks to the staff for your hard word, I would like to be able to help with donations, but, unfortanatelly I can’t =(

    well, now, let’s go to the topic.

    As the time pass, we can see, that old habilities and gains that Yang Kai got in TongXuan Realm are comming back one by one, I will try to explain my thougts about what will happen in the future.

    When Yang Kai went to the starry sky, he stoped using most of his previous habilities back on tong xuan, allmost all of them except the demon eye of anhiquilation, well, once he was on the starry sky, many events before he left Tong Xuan Realm, he found usefull again the dragon source, and he could adquire knowledge about how to use it with the dragon transformation technique. And as Liu Yun ( I guess this is the name of the monster queen back in starry sky) said back then, he has the dragon source, but he doesn’t know how to use it, or how to fuse with it, and there is where he start using it again, after he learnt how to use it properly.

    In his final moments in the starry sky then he found that the seven colored lotus, was not in his final form, and now, once we enter in the star boundary, the lotus is gaining again weigt in the plot, so, I guess that this ark for the next chapters, will be centered on our protagonist building his supreme lotus.

    But, here comes the good part of it, at least in my personal opinion, maybe I’m wrong but this is how I think that te events will evolve, because the autor is giving us some hints to start thinking about it.

    1st, we started with the soul devouring insects giving Yang Kay a method to evolve them in power, and also an artifact to control them, and a book(insect emperor) with information to help him evolve the soul devouring insects. Remember that the 1st monster that he found here was also a insect queen.

    So, 1st Tong Xuan Realm card updated. actully he can use the soul devouring insects to fight against dao source realm masters and even emperors.

    2nd, demon. As you are saying, Yang Kay has the demon god skeleton, but, he never used it again since Tong Xuan Realm, the main reason probably lies in the fact that the demon god, was actually too weak for starry sky standars, he was only a Saint king, maybe a origin retourning realm at most, but, now, once he reach the star boundary, he meet a great demon, and absorbed his Qi in his body, even he got a 2nd eye to mach the demon eye of anhiquilation. but he is still too weak to use it, or to be able to subdue the remanent soul of that great demon. so, the author only give Yang Kay, the qi, and something to seal it ( the tree that he got with that golden seed), but as the demon soul said to YK, he felt that he had part of a demon inside him. So, I think that while he was on the starry sky, YK only evolved his body, his human body, back in the pool before shadowed star, he evolved his human body, and so, his human body become more powerful than the golden skeleton, but, (and this is only my thougts), the golden skeleton only felt dormant, or, hidden inside YK, I think that his golden bood is not related with the golden skeleton, I will talk about it later (XDDDD).

    Now that he has the great demon qi, and we already know that in the star boundary, there are demon race (weak, but demons), nobody can see something comming, like the ancient demon tribe back in Tong Xuan Realm?, My guess, is that YK will come in contact with the demon tribe once he evolve the supreme lotus, or, at the same time, because the lotus already took something in the soul mirror, (the soul jade, that is actually nurishing the lotus, and YK soul), so, his soul is already at the 3rd order Dao Source Realm and has already emperor intent. So, probably, next he will start working on the demon qi, because he alreay posess a supreme phisque, after he took the heritance of the emperor alchemist. (sorry, it’s frustrating but I really don’t remember the names XDD)

    Well, what’s happening with the black book. I think that the black book will come again to the game after YK destroy the soul remanent of the great demon, but, just a a little bit, we will have to wait much more to see about it becouse this will be related with his next destination after the star boundary. A hint, nobody can see the relation between the item that YK got, that he needs the help of that little girl, the same as the 1st artifact that YK got once he entered the starry sky? obviusly, I’m talking about the emperor seal that YK got once he entered the starry sky, and didn’t use it untill he left the starry sky, and know, I’m guessing, that this item, and that little girl are related with what we will see after the star boundary, and the emperor relam.

    Why?, well, here is when the golden blood and will be explained I suppouse.

    YK got the inheritance of the demon god. the dragon source, that is related with the most powerfull divine monster, but he is human, so, this is what I guess that will happend far far away in the future.

    The golden blood I thing is not related with the demon god, and is more related with his evolution as a human in the pool of blood back in Tong Xuan Realm (before he entered in shadowed start), he evolved his internal organs and blood there, probably, his blood to the apex of human beings. That’s why he is able to use the his blood and qi related. remember that he use an ancient array in that pool to evolve in this way, and the author didn’t say nothing about it back there. This is related with the future events.

    Now he evolved his flesh to the apex of humans with the help of the potion made by the alchemist in the fournace mountain.

    He got the qi of an great demon, wich was more powerfull than emperors, and that even emperors couldn’t destroy his entire body, even after thousands of years. wich will help him to evolve his golden skeleton and his demon side to the apex.

    ok, now, let’s talk about dragon source, we have a dragon island in the star boundary, and he has a tokem of the dragon island, guess what follow with this?, he will be able to evolve his dragon source and dragon transformation, wich means, Apex dragon probably.

    Once we have all of this, how do you think is all related?

    Pinacle of human body, pinacle of demon race, pinacle of dragon race, a strange little girl with stange powers, and an artifact of unknown propierties that shows images of beautifull place once that said little girl interacts with it. And what comes after great emperor realm?. Well, the monster in the four seasons sealed world already gave us a little hint, why would he be afraid of that little girl bloodline?

    I think that this is all related with the final destination of YK, where everything could be related, Tong Xuan Realm included. I think that this stange artifact is related with the realm of gods, maybe, or, at least with a geater dimension or realm, the realm where the peackok of starry sky lives. we already know that there are other dimensions thanks to the netherworld pool in shadowed star, so, this little girl will guide YK to that place. And how is related this with Tong Xuan realm. Here goes my guess:

    We have very rare things in YK’s home star. We have demon race, human race and monster race living in the same place, and we already know that Tong Xuan Realm is a very old star. And we can guess, for what the author tell us when YK’s little sister refine the star source, that there was powerfull cultivators in the past in his home star.

    By now, we only now that there are more than one starfield, and Yang Yang already told to YK that the star chart is something very important that YK will understand once he become stronger. and, the more important is that we don’t know the name of YK starfield, but, we know that there there are strong masters, that came to the star boundary (remember the emperor intent that lies on the corpse of the insect queen) But for some reason, this is all blury, and I think is all related with what will happen after the star boundary.

    Well, it’s time to reach the finish line with my thougts I think XDDD.

    In my opinion:
    The golden blood is related with the blood line of YK (so, related with Tong Xuan Realm), that will awake in the future, and must be something very important for some reason.
    The demon god, must be related with this too, because even for Tong Xuan Realm he was a genius, with knowlage far avobe any other person back in Tong Xuan Realm, and the black book will reveal something about it, once YK evolve or, absorbs his newly adquired great demon qi.
    The dragon source sure ir related too with this, and the misterious disapperance of the dragons from this realm. Because, actually, we don’t know if in the dragon island there are actual dragons, maybe there are descendants of dragons, we’ll know about it in the future.

    So, to end all my writing. Tong Xuan Realm, must be related with the next stop of YK. To put it blunty, let’s say that Tong Xuan Realm is the home of gods? Where they start their path to goodhood. But, why nobody knows about it, I think, that the fact that the demon god apeared in Tong Xuan realm, is related with this, he put an array to hide Tong Xuan Realm from the starry sky, but he have knowledge that surpases the people of Tong Xuan Realm, so, maybe, something happened on the gods domain (lets call it like this), and the demon god used an stremely advanced array that burnt all his cultivation to hide the entire startfield and star boundary. but, how can this be?, well, we have a little gild with stange habilities now in the starboundary, with a blood line that scares a beast in the great emperor realm, and that girl is related with an artifact that shows images of another place. What if, the demon god had to put a great array here to make the gods unable to reach this realm to protect her lineage?, why?, what if this little girl is the descendant of the king of the gods? for example, that will explain too why Tong Xuan Realm has all this, because that was the star where the servants of that king god ended once they saved the descendants of this king, phoenix, dragons, demon god…,

    And if we go crazy about it, why if all of this was made to be given to the reincarnation of this king. think about it, to be a king of the gods, you should need to be extrementy powerfull, so, you should need to be more powerfull than any other. so, having the best blood line of the humans (golden blood), the best bloodline of the demon race, Demon god inheritance, golden skeleton and be able to use demonic qi, and the best bloodline of the monster race, the golden dragon. That would mean that YK is the reincarnation, or, the successor of this king…

    But there are a lot of what if in all my thougts, and I am thinking too far in the future, but, in this way all is related, and, probably, the star chart that Yang Yang says to be very important is the key to activate that stange artifact. and The fact that the friend of Yang Yang was profident in the dao of space, and was able to make the small sealed world bead, means that probably that friend is related with this, and maybe even be a part of this higher realm. well see about this in the future, =).

    Bye Bye!!!

    1. It’s really amazing that you took so much effort to put out your theories or your perspectives on the story’s future. Maybe your thoughts will turn out true or maybe not, either way, it was fun to read your comment.
      P.S. Ever thought of writing a book? XD

  19. I’ve been reading in advance through some mtl websites, due to me being impatient to wait for more chapters, now I can’t tolerate those shitty translations anymore, I felt instead of enjoying the story, I’d become stupid. Divine Dao has the best translations I’ve read, I decided to patiently wait for now and read other stories. I’d recommend for most people here not to read shitty translation and just be patient.

  20. Seems like the author forgot about the Yang divine tree, after the battle at Dragon mountain there is no mention of it what I can remember? He should have planted it in the small world and led it evolve, poor guy..
