With the weapon he needs to destroy the gods now in his possession, Morgan sets off for Faeland once again. However, this time, he does not go alone.

As soon as he departs, Katherine receives an urgent summons from Hu Kiln, king of the West Kingdom.

Safaia, Tero and Garasu are on a collision course, and the clans of Buryoku scramble to brace for the impact. While Safaia is in an uproar, Roy heads into an ancient library in search of the secrets of advancement and the Path to Gray-Belt. What he discovers may change the course of Buryoku's history forevermore.

With the rise of the Ancient Cavern Beast, Furea, the Bringer of Fire, comes a threat the likes of which Buryoku hasn't seen in centuries. As if this wasn't bad enough, his armies rise along with him, containing fighters so powerful that even the Scions may not be victorious against them. While the war rages on, Roy and Aika find themselves transported to a new land, set on a mission by his mother to hunt down the only man who can truly teach Roy how to control his birthright. Finding him may also unlock the only key to defeating the Ancient Beast.

The Ghost's Tower stands tall in the razed continent of Tero. Having just escaped the collapsing library and the awakening of a Titan, Roy and the others are shaken, but war waits for no one, even in the midst of a disaster.

The seals which have long contained the majority of Buryoku's power, have been shattered, freeing the race of Demons along with them.... With a third Ancient Cavern Beast on the rise, Roy, as the Herald Clan's youngest Sage, is tasked with preventing the rise of a fourth. Isolated from the rest of his Clan, Roy must lead a mission to the Glacial Bands, traveling through a changed Buryoku in hopes of beating both the Demons, and Beast Factions, in locating the ancient monster.

The competition between Scions continues, with more on the line than ever before. Roy and his teammates have long odds to beat, especially seeing as they're up against the most powerful team in the entire tournament. With little hope of success, Roy will need to push himself as never before, discovering new depths to both his physical and spiritual power. All the while, Azure watches from on high as ancient seals continue to crumble, heralding the rise of a new age....

After facing impossible odds, Roy finds himself back where he first began his path in the martial arts. Questions abound, and the mystery surrounding his Core's strange behavior plagues his every waking moment. Finding answers will mean confronting a past he'd thought was long behind him. But if he wishes to advance further down the path of power, that confrontation is inevitable.

Three months have passed since the eccentric Hermit agreed to take Roy and Aika on as students. Now, the time has come for them to leave the forest and return to civilization. Neither Roy nor Aika know what to expect in the Itachi capital, but with their powerful teacher by their sides, they reluctantly agree to venture into the city. With all the time that has passed, they don't know how many powerful players are now on the board, nor the looming threat posed by a gathering of monstrous Beasts.

Safaia, Tero, and Garasu are on a collision course, and the clans of Buryoku scramble to brace for the impact. While Safaia is in an uproar, Roy heads into an ancient library in search of the secrets of advancement and the Path to Gray-Belt.

Life is cruel. Arbor learns this lesson the hard way, when everything he loves is taken from him in a single night. Left alive by the men who butchered his family, Arbor has two options: give up and perish, or rise up and fight to take back the life he's lost. To do that though, he'll have to leave behind the only home he's ever known and venture out into the world beyond.

With the defeat of the Elemental, Arbor should be hailed as a hero. Instead, he is shunned, turned away from the Defiants by those seeking power and fearing his own. Having little choice, Arbor sets out with his force of gremlins toward the slave city of Fivora in hopes of finally being reunited with his sister. Meanwhile, strange things are happening in the elven capital of Srila. An Infiltrator is stalking the streets and leaving death in its wake. However, the Infiltrator isn’t the only one with its sights set on the elven homeland.

Dabu’s life has been far from easy; born with a crippling lung illness, he has never been as strong as his father or brother, both of whom have disappeared after attempting to challenge the Trials of Ancients. In the wake of the Tyrant King’s war, his village has come under the control of the Purus, a vicious gang of magically enhanced cutthroats and murderers. The Trials offer the promise of power to any who can clear them, but Dabu has been forbidden from entering.

Have a pleasant match, and remember, we’re always watching.... When Sam wakes up in a strange new world with a message floating before his eyes, he thinks he's hallucinating. However, he soon discovers a land filled with dungeons, monsters, angry gnomes, and even worse, talking dogs!

The end is finally here. Morgan and Sarah rush back to the Five Kingdoms, with the survivors of Faeland in tow, as enemies converge on all sides. Gods and monsters alike threaten to destroy the world, and there is only one person mighty enough to stop them all. Morgan will be tested like never before, in his final bid to free the planet of the chaotic influences that threaten to destroy it. Will he prove, once and for all, that he is truly Omniscient? Or, will one of his many enemies finally put an end to the King of Eternity?

Zundy has always been different. As a pal-tee, a distant cousin to the dwarves, he, and all others of his race, absorb traits from the very first item they touch upon birth. Instead of absorbing the essence of stone, or steel, like most others in his town, Zundy accidentally absorbed those of a beetle. Those who are different are often treated poorly, and for Zundy, this was no exception.

Who the hell is Virgonius Simp? To answer this all-important question, Sam must venture through the world of Somerset one last time. Of course, he isn’t exactly a willing participant, but Grem Lynn, queen of the gremlins, doesn’t really give him much choice. Tasked with destroying a conspiracy to overthrow her Grempire – get it? – Sam sets out with his odd group of people and talking animals.

Sam is back and better than ever! Just kidding. His life still sucks. Dragged into the video-game-like world of Somerset, he is constantly having his patience and sanity tested by the world's sheer tropiness and unoriginality. Like, for example, how Princess Willow of the East was kidnapped just a few hours after asking for his help in saving her kingdom. Or, how seemingly no one, including the all-powerful Adventurers Guild, can do anything about it.

After exiting the Trials, Dabu and Uhane set off in pursuit of Phoenix. However, after encountering a magically charged sandstorm, the pair find themselves far from their intended course.

Instead, they find deserted villages, rumors of a terrifying beast that stalks the night, and no way to turn back. All they can do is forge on, both to find supplies and to discover what sort of creature can send entire villages fleeing for their lives.
