Li Yu found a paper boat bearing Ruthless Great Emperor’s message, “Only I remain,” and grew anxious about a future dark calamity. After sending Shao Hao and Little Stone to the Kunpeng Nest, he retrieved a branch of the World Tree and entered a cave across spacetime to investigate Ruthless Great Emperor’s message.

After arranging to bring the Wall of Gods and Demons to the Great Wilderness, Li Yu refined his understanding of the Origin of Matter and Order, though he still lacked the accumulation needed to reach Immortal King.
