Chapter Summaries

Xiang Dong issued tasks to Primordial Qilin and Primordial Phoenix to limit the damage the Dao-Demon Conflict caused in the West, and asked Yangmei to help contain the fighting. Meanwhile, Taichu’s gestation accelerated in Pangu Hall, bringing the Twelve Ancestral Witches closer to his birth.

• Xiang Dong’s remark about fetching scriptures gave Jie Yin and Zhun Ti a glimpse of a promising Dao Path, but he redirected them before they could pursue it.
• As the Dao Ancestor and Devil Ancestor began their all-out war in the West, Xiang Dong worried about the damage and the effect it could have on Jie Yin and Zhun Ti.
• Xiang Dong assigned Primordial Qilin to guard the West’s Earth Veins and Primordial Phoenix to regulate its Yin-Yang; both accepted their tasks for Merit.
• Xiang Dong messaged Yangmei to ask him to help limit the battle’s destruction, then continued traveling with Jie Yin, Zhun Ti, and his three mounts.
• Taichu’s flesh cocoon swelled and pulsed in Pangu Hall, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches gathered in anticipation of his birth.

Luohou raised the Zhuxian Sword Formation, and Hongjun persuaded Yin-Yang Ancestor, Qiankun Ancestor, and Five-Elements Ancestor to enter it with him. Seeing the danger, Yangmei urged the Chaos Demon Gods fighting outside to preserve their lives, leaving the battle inside the formation to Hongjun and Luohou.

• Luohou summoned the Zhuxian Sword Formation and infused it with the Demon Dao’s power, while the four ancestors recognized its threat.
• Hongjun explained that four experts had to attack the formation’s gates at once and promised the ancestors Luohou’s treasures and help attaining the Dao.
• Yin-Yang Ancestor, Qiankun Ancestor, and Five-Elements Ancestor chose three gates, leaving Hongjun to face the main Immortal-Slaying Gate.
• Yangmei concluded that the Heavenly Dao had favored Hongjun and decided to keep the other Chaos Demon Gods alive as potential allies.
• Yangmei contacted Samsara, Yellow Springs, Piaomiao, and the others, revealed that he had a way to remain in the Primordial World after attaining the Dao in Chaos, and told them not to risk their lives.
• The Chaos Demon Gods outside the formation pretended to fight hard but weakened their attacks, while Hongjun and the three ancestors battled Luohou inside.

Hongjun let Yin-Yang Ancestor, Qiankun Ancestor, and Five-Elements Ancestor perish in the Zhuxian Sword Formation while secretly preparing to take its swords. After the three Ancestors were defeated, he revealed that he was a Great Perfection Quasi-Saint who had severed all three corpses, and faced Luohou with his clones and treasures.

• Hongjun used the All-Heavens Celebration Cloud to shield himself while Luohou focused the formation's killing power on the three Ancestors.
• Luohou ambushed and grievously wounded Yin-Yang Ancestor, who self-detonated and weakened the formation.
• Qiankun Ancestor realized Hongjun had betrayed them, but Luohou blocked his escape, and Qiankun Ancestor self-detonated.
• Five-Elements Ancestor was killed after accusing Hongjun of leading him to ruin.
• Hongjun revealed his three severed corpses and declared that he would show Luohou the Three Corpses Path to Enlightenment.

Hongjun defeated Luohou with his Three Corpses and Heavenly Dao Power, prompting Luohou to create the Outer Realm Demon Realm and impose Heart Demon Tribulations on cultivators. Xiang Dong considered the lasting conflict between immortals and demons, then received notice that the Three Pure Ones had begun to act.

• Hongjun unleashed his three corpses and spirit treasures, broke the Zhuxian Sword Formation, and defeated Luohou.
• Luohou blamed the Heavenly Dao for his defeat and self-destructed after swearing to the Great Dao.
• Luohou's explosion formed the Outer Realm Demon Realm, while demons became the source of Heart Demon Tribulations for cultivators below the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm.
• Xiang Dong criticized Luohou's actions and considered how the immortal and demon struggle would burden those at the bottom.
• Xiang Dong received a notification that the Three Pure Ones had begun to act.

After Hongjun defeated Luohou, the surviving Chaos Demon Gods claimed the scattered Spirit Treasures, leaving Hongjun unable to seize them. Yangmei wrested the Heavenly Book from Hongjun, but Hongjun shattered the void to keep either of them from claiming it, sending the book into an unknown part of the Primordial World.

• Hongjun discovered that the Chaos Demon Gods had survived Luohou's self-destruction without serious injuries and tried to collect the Spirit Treasures.
• Patriarch Samsara took the Zhuxian Formation Diagram and reminded Hongjun that he had promised the spoils to those who helped him.
• Hongjun claimed the Heavenly Book for himself, but Yangmei pulled it away and revealed that he had become a Primordial Unity Heavenly Venerable.
• Yangmei tried to take the Heavenly Book, and Hongjun struck the void with the Creation Jade Disc, causing the book to escape into the chaotic currents.
• Yangmei accepted the loss of the Heavenly Book, while Hongjun lamented that the battle had yielded far fewer gains than he expected.

After the Demon Dao struggle ended, Xiang Dong absorbed his small share of Heavenly Dao Merit into his phone and followed the Three Pure Ones to a valley where they entered a formation protecting the Creation Green Lotus. Xiang Dong prepared to use the Twelve-Rank World-Cleansing White Lotus, a component of his phone, to get past the formation.

• Hongjun returned to his abode to prepare to merge with the Dao, ending the Kalpa and dissipating the Tribulation Qi.
• The Three Pure Ones left Eastern Kunlun, sensed a fortuitous opportunity calling to them, and flew toward it while Xiang Dong and his companions secretly followed.
• Xuehuang and Junshan Qilin received merit for their roles in the struggle, while Xiang Dong received a small strand of Xuanhuang Qi and refined it into a gold bean.
• Xiang Dong fed the gold bean to his phone, hoping to raise his access level, then continued following the Three Pure Ones to a valley.
• The Three Pure Ones entered the innate grand formation guarding the Creation Green Lotus, while Xiang Dong planned to use the Twelve-Rank World-Cleansing White Lotus to get inside.

Xiang Dong led Xuehuang, Ao Yue, Junshan Qilin, Zhun Ti, and Jie Yin into the formation surrounding the Twenty-Four-Rank Creation Green Lotus. As the Three Pure Ones tried to claim the treasure, the others joined forces to stop them, and the battle began.

• Xiang Dong used the world-cleansing light from his phone to open a shrinking passage through the innate grand formation, and Xuehuang, Ao Yue, and Junshan Qilin followed him inside.
• Xiang Dong photographed the Twenty-Four-Rank Creation Green Lotus and explained that the Heavenly Dao had caused it to be split into several Spirit Treasures.
• Zhun Ti and Jie Yin realized the lotus was an Innate Supreme Treasure, and Xiang Dong urged them to fight for it despite the Three Pure Ones' strength.
• Xiang Dong assigned Xuehuang, Ao Yue, and Junshan Qilin to support the two Western Sages as Zhun Ti used the Seven-Treasure Wonderful Tree to interrupt the Three Pure Ones.
• Taiqing continued collecting the lotus while Yuqing and Shangqing faced Zhun Ti, Jie Yin, Xuehuang, Ao Yue, and Junshan Qilin.
• Taiqing and Yuqing brought out the Taiji Diagram and Pangu Banner as the two sides prepared to fight.

Xiang Dong secretly approached the Creation Green Lotus during the battle and showed it a video of the Three Pure Ones destroying and dividing it. The lotus revealed that it had waited for the Three Pure Ones because their Heaven-Opening Merit could protect it from the Heavenly Dao.

• Xiang Dong recorded the battle between the Eight Peak Great Unity Golden Immortals and used the chaos to approach the Creation Green Lotus.
• The Creation Green Lotus repelled Xiang Dong when he tried to touch it, but he sensed its strong spirituality and began communicating with it.
• Xiang Dong made the Creation Green Lotus watch a video depicting the Heavenly Dao shattering it and the Three Pure Ones turning its parts into their treasures.
• The Creation Green Lotus recognized the video as a true account of its fate and explained that it had waited for the Three Pure Ones because each carried Heaven-Opening Merit.
• The Creation Green Lotus told Xiang Dong that Heaven-Opening Merit came from the Great Dao and could prevent the Heavenly Dao from acting against it.

Xiang Dong used the Heaven-Opening Merit hidden in his phone to convince the Creation Green Lotus to come with him, taking it from the Three Pure Ones. Their ensuing battle shattered the valley’s protective formation and exposed the lotus to the Heavenly Dao, which summoned Purple Firmament Divine Thunder.

• Xiang Dong remembered that the phone contained three wisps of Heaven-Opening Merit taken from the Three Pure Ones and showed them to the Creation Green Lotus.
• Xiang Dong offered to shelter the Creation Green Lotus, and it withdrew its barrier and chose to go with him.
• The Three Pure Ones noticed that their fortuitous opportunity had vanished and saw Xiang Dong with the Creation Green Lotus.
• Taiqing, Yuqing, and the third brother fought the two Western Saints and three riders with their supreme Heaven-Opening treasures.
• The battle’s shockwaves destroyed the valley’s innate formation and exposed the Creation Green Lotus to the Heavenly Dao.
• The Heavenly Dao filled the sky with purple-black clouds and unleashed Purple Firmament Divine Thunder as a warning.

Xiang Dong defied the Heavenly Dao’s Heavenly Punishment while the Creation Green Lotus hid in his merit-protected phone. The Heavenly Dao ultimately held back, then met Xiang Dong’s gaze with its Eye before disappearing, leaving a promise of future trouble.

• Ao Yue recognized the gathering thunderclouds as Heavenly Punishment, and the mounts rushed to protect Xiang Dong while the Three Pure Ones and the Western Sages retreated.
• The Creation Green Lotus abandoned its reserves and entered Xiang Dong’s phone as the Heavenly Punishment prepared to strike.
• Xiang Dong faced the thunderclouds, and the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder struck more than ten meters away because his merit-protected phone made him untouchable.
• Xiang Dong taunted the Heavenly Dao and tried to leave, prompting the lightning to lash across the valley and cover the watching sages in soot.
• The thunderclouds dispersed, and the Eye of the Heavenly Dao appeared, silently meeting Xiang Dong’s gaze before fading away.

After the Heavenly Dao withdrew and froze Xiang Dong’s merit, the Three Pure Ones attacked him to claim the Creation Green Lotus. His three mounts tried to escape with him, but the Three Pure Ones closed in, and Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi arrived as Xuehuang prepared to break through.

• Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing agreed to seize the Creation Green Lotus and surrounded Xiang Dong after the Heavenly Dao froze his merit.
• Xiang Dong climbed onto Ao Yue and ordered him, Xuehuang, and Junshan Qilin to flee while Jie Yin and Zhun Ti followed from a distance.
• The Three Pure Ones pursued the group, with Yuqing using the Pangu Banner to tear through space and close the gap.
• Yuqing cut off their path with Chaos Sword Qi, and Taiqing used the Taiji Diagram to slow the mounts.
• Ao Yue threw Xiang Dong to Xuehuang and held back the Three Pure Ones with Junshan Qilin’s help.
• Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi arrived in streaks of golden light as Xuehuang prepared to burn her Essence Blood to escape.

Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi arrived as the Three Pure Ones confronted Xiang Dong over the Creation Green Lotus and his phone, bringing all three Pangu Axe treasures together. The Chaos Bell’s power stunned everyone, and the gathering grew more dangerous as the Three Pure Ones and the Golden Crows prepared to contend over the treasures.

• Xiang Dong realized the Heavenly Dao had guided Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi to the scene, and Shangqing questioned why the Chaos Bell was in Taiyi’s hands.
• Dijun proposed that everyone claim the treasures by their own abilities and used Hetu and Luoshu to seal Xuehuang’s escape route.
• Yuqing insulted the Golden Crows, prompting Eastern Emperor Taiyi to summon the Chaos Bell and strike everyone with its toll.
• Xiang Dong’s Creation Green Lotus shield and phone’s World-Cleansing Light protected him from the bell, while Dijun recognized the phone as a Merit Supreme Treasure.
• The Three Pure Ones’ treasures resonated with the Chaos Bell and imprisoned the surrounding void, as Zhun Ti and Jie Yin withdrew to watch from farther away.

Xiang Dong protected Ao Yue, Xuehuang, and Junshan Qilin from the Three Pure Ones while the Creation Green Lotus weakened their attack. He revealed that death would send him back to his clone, then bought time for his companions to escape as the lotus rapidly advanced in its refinement.

• Ao Yue, Xuehuang, and Junshan Qilin prepared to sacrifice themselves to protect Xiang Dong, but he told them he would revive in his clone if he died.
• Xiang Dong ordered the three mounts to use their escape methods and flee toward Buzhou Mountain, while he stayed behind to hold off their enemies.
• Xiang Dong tried to distract Dijun and Yuqing by suggesting they settle the dispute over the Spirit Treasure among themselves, but they rejected the ploy.
• Taiqing realized Xiang Dong was stalling to refine the Creation Green Lotus as its barrier grew stronger.
• The Creation Green Lotus willingly helped Xiang Dong refine its restrictions and reached the thirteenth, causing its power to surge.

Xiang Dong used the Creation Green Lotus to send its accumulated power to Taichu, accelerating his birth in Pangu Hall while the Twelve Ancestral Witches watched. Taichu awakened as the Light Ancestral Witch and immediately set off to reach Xiang Dong, who was under attack.

• Taiqing urged the others to attack Xiang Dong together, and the Three Pure Ones and Dijun sealed off his escape routes.
• Xiang Dong transformed the Creation Green Lotus into a rod and released a beam of its stored power toward Buzhou Mountain.
• Zhu Jiuyin traced the beam to Xiang Dong and recognized that he needed help, prompting the Twelve Ancestral Witches to react angrily to the attackers.
• The beam struck Taichu’s flesh cocoon in Pangu Hall, accelerating its development and forming his body and heart.
• Taichu emerged as the Light Ancestral Witch with fourteen Principles, then transformed into light and vanished to reach Xiang Dong.

Xiang Dong fused with his other Primordial Spirit and became Taichu, the Light Ancestral Witch, revealing a powerful Wheel of Principle to the Three Pure Ones and their allies. After sending Ao Yue, Xuehuang, and Junshan Qilin away, Taichu chose to fight, while Taiqing realized the Heaven-Opening Supreme Treasures were turning against their owners in Taichu’s presence.

• The Creation Green Lotus barrier shattered, and a pillar of light fused Xiang Dong’s two Primordial Spirits into Taichu’s complete Ancestral Witch true body.
• The Three Pure Ones recognized Pangu’s presence in Taichu and deduced that he was an Ancestral Witch born from Pangu’s Essence Blood.
• Taichu displayed a Wheel of Principle containing fourteen Principles, then sent Ao Yue, Xuehuang, and Junshan Qilin away through a rainbow-light tunnel.
• Taichu and Xiang Dong agreed to fight the Three Pure Ones and their allies, as Taichu eagerly embraced the battle.
• Taiyi’s Chaos Bell, Taiqing’s Taiji Diagram, and Yuqing’s Pangu Banner rebelled against their owners, prompting Taiqing to order them put away.

Taichu overwhelmed the Three Pure Ones by blinding them with the Sun Fist and then beating them in close combat, taking their spirit treasures. He left Taiqing reeling after overpowering the Southern Li Earth Flame-Light Banner with divine fire and striking him down.

• Taichu used the Sun Fist to disrupt the Three Pure Ones and the Golden Crows’ senses, then closed in on Yuqing.
• Yuqing deployed the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, but Taichu broke through its golden lotuses, beat him, and seized the banner.
• Shangqing rushed to Yuqing’s aid with the Eastern Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner, but Taichu beat him and took his banner too.
• Taiqing brought out the Southern Li Earth Flame-Light Banner, and Taichu combined the Fire Principle with Xiang Dong’s origin power to overpower its Nanming Li Fire.
• Taichu slapped Taiqing and accused him of ruling through non-action while doing little for the Human Race.

After Taichu defeated the Three Pure Ones, Xiang Dong’s borrowed strength began to falter, but the Solar True Fire from Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi restored him. Dijun chose to destroy Xiang Dong, and Xiang Dong countered the brothers’ combined attack with Gonggong’s Water Principle, triggering a massive explosion.

• Jie Yin and Zhun Ti decided that they should avoid making an enemy of Xiang Dong and try to befriend him.
• Taichu took the Off-Ground Flame Light Banner from Taiqing, while his crystal began flashing as his strength waned.
• Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi transformed into blazing suns and unleashed Solar True Fire, which Xiang Dong absorbed to regain his strength.
• Dijun realized Xiang Dong countered their innate Divine Ability and ordered Eastern Emperor Taiyi to use Great Sun Soul-Burning.
• Xiang Dong switched to Gonggong’s Water Principle and fired silver-gray light at the brothers’ combined sun, causing a violent explosion.

Xiang Dong’s attempt to counter the Golden Crows’ Solar True Fire backfired, badly injuring Taichu and unleashing a devastating explosion. Safely trapped in a mysterious space, Xiang Dong watched the aftermath as Zhun Ti was burned and left with twelve marks that seemed impossible to remove.

• Xiang Dong switched the light attack to Yin and the Water Principle, but the Solar True Fire overwhelmed it and separated him from Taichu in a huge explosion.
• Taichu gave Xiang Dong’s phone back to him to safeguard its frozen Heavenly Dao Merit, then returned to Pangu Hall while Xiang Dong fell toward the fire.
• An unknown person pulled Xiang Dong into a protected space and supported his flower head so he could watch the destruction outside.
• The blast flattened the surrounding landscape, and golden Solar True Fire rained down, while the Three Pure Ones and the two Western Sages struggled to defend themselves.
• Jie Yin shielded himself and Zhun Ti, but Zhun Ti was burned on the head, leaving twelve black marks that Jie Yin believed would remain for life.

After the battle, the Three Pure Ones and the Golden Crows searched in vain for Taichu and the Creation Green Lotus before leaving to recover. Yangmei revealed that he had witnessed the fight and rescued Xiang Dong, then explained how Taichu's path through space and time had drawn his attention.

• Jie Yin dragged the injured Zhun Ti away from the battlefield, while Xiang Dong laughed at the battered Three Pure Ones and Golden Crows.
• Taiqing treated his brothers' injuries, and the Three Pure Ones and Golden Crows searched the scorched ground but could not find Taichu or the Creation Green Lotus.
• The Three Pure Ones left after Shangqing wondered whether Pangu's strength came from the Power of Principle, and Dijun led Eastern Emperor Taiyi away.
• Yangmei emerged from the void holding Xiang Dong, laughed at his sorry state, and straightened his stalk.
• Yangmei told Xiang Dong that he had sensed Taichu crossing space and time, then came to watch because the feat touched the Space-Time Great Dao.

Xiang Dong learned that Yangmei had saved twelve Chaos Demon Gods, bringing the total to fifteen when three gravely injured patriarchs were included. After Xiang Dong healed himself with Three Lights Divine Water, Yangmei asked him to arrange visas for friends nearing breakthroughs, and Xiang Dong agreed to consider it under conditions.

• Xiang Dong asked Yangmei how many Chaos Demon Gods he had saved, and Yangmei said twelve, or fifteen counting the injured Five Elements, Yin-Yang, and Heaven and Earth.
• Yangmei explained that the three patriarchs could recover if he gathered spiritual essences, and Xiang Dong offered Three Lights Divine Water to help heal them.
• Xiang Dong used a drop of Three Lights Divine Water to recover fully from his injuries and regain his strength.
• Yangmei asked Xiang Dong to arrange visas for friends who wanted to prove the Dao through Chaos without leaving the Primordial World permanently.
• Xiang Dong said the visas would have to wait until his phone was usable again and warned that the applicants would need to follow three ground rules, pay, and help him with something.
