Biography

From wary disciple to divine messenger

Du Ziming enters Longliu Manor alert to missing souls and the possibility of an evil cultivator, but he and his companions are unable to control their encounter with Du Ge. Once Liao Jiulong accepts the benefits offered by the supposed Heavenly Demon ancestor, Ziming follows his master's decision. Du Ge rebuilds his Dao foundation, names him a Messenger of the God of Darkness, and raises him to the peak of Qi Refining within two days. Ziming then publicly demonstrates the result to help persuade Dragon and Tiger Mountain that cooperation offers real advancement. (Chapters 522–541)

Keywords, skills, and cultivation

Ziming begins as a conventional Qi Refiner. Du Ge's transformation gives him a remodeled foundation with doubled cultivation efficiency, no ordinary bottlenecks, and Dark God-aligned supernatural power; his rapid ascent reaches the peak of Qi Refining with a breakthrough imminent. The gift accelerates his future rather than instantly making him equal to the sect's senior cultivators. (Chapters 539–541)
