Chapter Summaries

Cheng Xi used his entropy-law authority to destroy Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s starfall attack, but exhausted himself and lost control of the conversion beneath Yong City. A Pure White Beam extracted the mutated resentment core, leaving Yan Lingji and Ying Zheng with the crisis abruptly resolved and Cheng Xi unconscious on Zhurong Peak.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi sent phantom stars crashing toward the underground cave beneath Qinian Palace to disrupt Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji’s conversion array.
• Cheng Xi defined the airspace above the cave with an entropy law that made the starfall attacks collapse before impact, then fell unconscious from the strain.
• With Cheng Xi’s remote control gone, the conversion became unstable as the resentment core and Vengeful Dragon Origin began to mutate.
• A Pure White Beam extracted the mutated core and sealed it in a fist-sized, starlit black crystal before vanishing with it.
• The remaining resentment was absorbed by Yan Lingji’s Ancestor Witch Power and Ying Zheng’s dragon qi, while Eastern Emperor Taiyi watched the empty water mirror in anger.

After the deep-space beam seized the mutated core, Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji survived the Yongcheng disaster, while Cheng Xi fell into a life-preserving Nirvana State with severe soul and origin damage. Eastern Emperor Taiyi responded by launching a wider plan, and Yan Lingji returned to Zhurong Peak to help Cheng Xi, unaware that her unstable power was changing.

• The deep-space beam removed the mutated core, ending the resentment and magma in Yongcheng, while Yan Lingji gained immense Ancestor Witch power with unstable impurities.
• Cheng Xi collapsed on Zhurong Peak after using Words Manifested as Law, and the Chaos System forced him into Nirvana State to preserve his consciousness.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi ordered the Mars Guarding the Heart plan and sent the five division elders to Spiritual Vein Nodes, while seeking data on Cheng Xi through the Hidden Witch branch.
• Ying Zheng left for Xianyang to stabilize the court and investigate the disaster, while Yan Lingji returned to Zhurong Peak to aid Cheng Xi.
• Yan Lingji’s unstable Ancestor Witch power began absorbing scattered resentment and faintly glowing like the crystal taken by deep space.

Yan Lingji raced back to Zhurong Peak, where Cheng Xi remained near death, while Eastern Emperor Taiyi revealed his plans to use a hidden Star Fiend seed within her. Hidden Witches ambushed Yan Lingji to delay her and seize the seed as she erupted in fury.

• Yan Lingji hurried toward Zhurong Peak, unknowingly stirring lingering resentment with her unstable Ancestor Witch Power.
• Cheng Xi lay unconscious as the Chaos System warned that his life and Chaos Origin were in critical danger.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi watched agents contaminate the five great Spiritual Vein Nodes and revealed that he had planted a dormant Seed of Star Fiend within Yan Lingji.
• An old woman and other Hidden Witches blocked Yan Lingji near Zhurong Peak, seeking to delay her and take the seed.
• Yan Lingji unleashed her Ancestor Witch Power and vowed to kill anyone who stood in her way.

Yan Lingji killed the Hidden Witches blocking her and reached Cheng Xi, but her Essence Blood and divine power could not repair his grave injuries. Cheng Xi briefly awakened to warn her of a dangerous starlight hidden in her power, while disturbances at five locations signaled that Eastern Emperor Taiyi's plan had begun.

• Yan Lingji burned through the Hidden Witches’ formation, killed several of them, and forced the wounded crone to flee.
• Yan Lingji reached Cheng Xi and infused him with three drops of Essence Blood and her Ancestor Witch Divine Power, but his injuries remained beyond her ability to heal.
• Cheng Xi briefly revived his Entropy Pupils and warned Yan Lingji that an unknown high-dimensional contamination was attached to her energy.
• Yan Lingji found and temporarily suppressed the hidden black starlight within her Power Origin, suspecting Eastern Emperor Taiyi had planted it.
• Yan Lingji sensed ominous fluctuations at Xiaoshan, Mount Tai, Yunmeng, Leize Marsh, and Kunlun Void as Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Mars Guarding the Heart plan began.

Yan Lingji used Cheng Xi’s Chaos System to awaken his dormant Chaos Origin and halt his decline, while Ying Zheng sensed a realm-wide spiritual-vein crisis and mobilized the Qin court to investigate it. Cheng Xi remained critically wounded on Zhurong Peak as Mars’s baleful influence spread across the realm.

• The Chaos System instructed Yan Lingji to use her Ancestor Witch Divine Power as fuel to stimulate Cheng Xi’s self-repair rather than heal him directly.
• Yan Lingji purified and carefully guided her power into Cheng Xi’s dantian, where his Chaos Origin awakened and began reorganizing his wounds, stabilizing his vital signs.
• Ying Zheng sensed the National Fortune Dragon Qi’s distress and detected baleful qi spreading through the realm’s spiritual veins.
• Ying Zheng recognized the omen as Mars Guarding the Heart and ordered his ministers and Black Ice Platform specialists to investigate the five great spiritual veins.
• Ying Zheng issued a call for extraordinary talents and ordered harsher measures against Six States remnants who exploited the unrest.
• Yan Lingji continued sustaining Cheng Xi, unaware of the crisis, as the starlight within her stirred in response to the disturbed spiritual veins.

Yan Lingji used her Ancestor Witch Divine Power to awaken Cheng Xi’s Chaos Origin and begin restoring him, while Ying Zheng stabilized Great Qin after spiritual-vein disturbances. The Seed of Star Fiend secretly stole energy and sent data about Cheng Xi’s Entropy Restoration Force to Mirage Pavilion, prompting a distant will to intensify its investigation.

• Yan Lingji sustained Cheng Xi’s Entropy restoration until his Chaos Origin activity reached 0.7%, while the system warned that the energy supply could not stop.
• Ying Zheng rallied the court, ordered spiritual-vein monitoring and the creation of the Calamity Suppressing Camp, and sent scouts to watch former Six States territories and regional lords.
• The Seed of Star Fiend exploited Yan Lingji’s focus to siphon a tiny amount of her power and transmit information about her energy and Cheng Xi’s Entropy Restoration Force to Mirage Pavilion.
• A distant will classified Cheng Xi’s Entropy Energy as a high-value subject and ordered more frequent data collection and reverse analysis.
• The Chaos System recorded a tiny, unexplained fluctuation in Yan Lingji’s energy input but could not identify its source.

Cheng Xi struggled to rebuild his shattered Consciousness Space while Yan Lingji unknowingly let the Seed of Star Fiend contaminate the energy she was channeling to him. Meanwhile, Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s plan unleashed disasters at five Spiritual Vein Nodes, prompting Ying Zheng to dispatch forces and send aid toward Zhurong Peak.

• Cheng Xi reorganized the broken Data Streams and Rule Fragments in his Consciousness Space to prevent his consciousness from collapsing.
• Yan Lingji grew exhausted as the Seed of Star Fiend developed Mutated Energy and began contaminating the energy she sent to Cheng Xi.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s plan triggered calamities at Xiaoshan, Mount Tai, Yunmeng Great Marsh, Leize Marsh, and the edge of Kunlun Void.
• Ying Zheng ordered Wang Jian to lead the Calamity Suppressing Camp against the Bewitching God Banner and tasked Wei Liao with relief efforts.
• Ying Zheng sent Zhang Han to Zhurong Peak with a Dragon Blood Pill for Lord Chang'an’s condition and Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji used the Dragon Blood Pill to restore Cheng Xi by refining its energy and transferring it through the Entropy Synchronization Protocol, stabilizing his consciousness. The Seed of Star Fiend stole fragments of their insights into fundamental rules, drawing Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s attention and prompting a deeper-space entity to elevate Cheng Xi’s observation priority.

• Zhang Han left the Dragon Blood Pill and a jade slip from Ying Zheng beside Yan Lingji and Cheng Xi.
• Yan Lingji tried to give Cheng Xi the pill directly, but his Entropy Force Field rejected its energy and worsened his injuries.
• The Chaos System advised Yan Lingji to absorb the pill, convert its energy, and transfer it through the Entropy Synchronization Protocol, so she swallowed it and began refining it.
• Yan Lingji’s converted energy strengthened Cheng Xi’s restoration, stabilizing his Consciousness Space and deepening his insights into entropy and chaos.
• The Seed of Star Fiend stole Dao Marks from Yan Lingji’s energy conversion and fragments of Cheng Xi’s insights, which Eastern Emperor Taiyi analyzed with excitement.
• A deep-space entity elevated the Seed of Star Fiend’s permissions and Cheng Xi’s observation level, while Yan Lingji continued supplying him energy unaware of the theft.

After recovering enough to think clearly, Cheng Xi discovered that a parasitic anomaly inside Yan Lingji was stealing energy and learning to imitate Entropy Energy. He sent her a deceptive model designed to expose and mark the hidden Seed of Star Fiend while preparing to weaken its bond to her power.

• Cheng Xi regained consciousness as the Chaos System reported that his mind had largely stabilized, though his body and Power Origin still needed repair.
• Cheng Xi traced the energy Yan Lingji had supplied for over seventy-one hours and compared its fluctuations with the warning from his Entropy Pupils.
• Cheng Xi discovered that an independent anomaly inside Yan Lingji was stealing energy, transmitting information, and showing traces of Entropy Energy.
• Cheng Xi devised a trap by sending Yan Lingji an altered Entropy Energy model and an optimization protocol designed to mark the parasite and weaken its fusion with her energy.
• Yan Lingji followed Cheng Xi's instructions, and the Seed of Star Fiend eagerly absorbed the false model as its outward signals grew denser.

Cheng Xi used Yan Lingji’s adjusted energy flow to bait the Star Fiend Seed into absorbing a false Entropy model, then marked it to trace Eastern Emperor Taiyi. The seed began mutating and threatened to self-destruct inside Yan Lingji, putting her dantian and Cheng Xi’s Blood Link at risk.

• Yan Lingji followed Cheng Xi’s Optimization Protocol, unknowingly feeding the Star Fiend Seed the altered energy model.
• The Star Fiend Seed greedily absorbed the model’s law information and sent it to Eastern Emperor Taiyi in Yunmeng Marsh.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi accepted the false Law Axiom as a guiding principle and began applying it to his cultivation and the Great Array of the Heavenly Stars.
• Cheng Xi activated the Entropy Source Mark, marking the seed and tracing its link to Mirage Pavilion as the Deep Space Will intensified its scrutiny.
• Yan Lingji detected the parasitic seed and realized she had unknowingly helped it steal Cheng Xi’s secrets.
• The unstable seed began to self-destruct, threatening Yan Lingji’s dantian and Cheng Xi’s Blood Link.

Cheng Xi used Entropy Restoration Force to contain the star-seed core before it could destroy Yan Lingji and reach him through their Blood Link. A Deep Space will removed the core, while Eastern Emperor Taiyi discovered his connection to it had been erased and vowed to uncover who was behind the interference.

• Cheng Xi activated Entropy Bind and used the Blood Link to slow the star-seed core's explosion, risking the collapse of his Chaos Origin.
• A Pure White Beam from Deep Space severed the core from Yan Lingji and the Blood Link, then carried it away.
• Yan Lingji escaped the immediate danger, and Cheng Xi's condition stabilized before he fell unconscious again.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi found his link to the Seed of Star Fiend erased, suffered backlash, and resolved to uncover the force behind it.
• On Zhurong Peak, Yan Lingji checked Cheng Xi and found him weak but stable, while her fear of the Deep Space Existence deepened.

Cheng Xi awakened after the Entropy Binding Protocol and deduced that the five calamity pillars threatened to collapse the continent unless their central control node was found. He proposed a national array to slow the pollution while Great Qin mobilized, as Eastern Emperor Taiyi ordered a blood sacrifice to accelerate the Bewitching God Banner’s maturation.

• Cheng Xi awakened with his consciousness and Chaos System partly restored, learned that Deep Space had stripped away the Star Seed, and sensed the five calamity pillars spreading Foul Aura.
• Cheng Xi modeled the disaster and forecast that pollution would spread globally and risk collapsing the continent within 30 days unless the central control node was destroyed.
• Yan Lingji received Ying Zheng’s message that Wang Jian and the others could not locate the Bewitching God Banner’s core, then relayed Cheng Xi’s plan for a Myriad Spirits Returning Flow Array to raise spiritual pressure and slow the pollution.
• Ying Zheng ordered Li Si, Wei Liao, and Zhang Han to build the array and mobilize Great Qin’s resources and cultivators.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi ordered the five elder divisions to direct the calamity against rival sects and mountain gates, using their destruction to speed the Bewitching God Banner’s maturation.
• Deep Space recorded Cheng Xi’s awakening, Great Qin’s energy project, and Taiyi’s extermination program while continuing its analysis of the Entropy Binding Star Core.

Ying Zheng and Cheng Xi coordinated to slow the disasters and supply Cheng Xi with energy, allowing him to calculate three possible locations for the Bewitching God Banner's main control node. Meanwhile, Eastern Emperor Taiyi redirected the disasters against the Mohists, and his suspicion of Cheng Xi drove him toward an even more extreme plan.

• Ying Zheng used the Imperial Seal and national fortune to strengthen uncontaminated earth veins, slowing the spread of the disasters as the Myriad Spirits Returning Flow Array sent energy to Cheng Xi.
• Cheng Xi used the incoming energy to calculate three possible locations for the main banner: Yunmeng Marsh, the Mount Xiao Ancient Battlefield, and Kunlun Void.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi directed the disaster force toward the Mohist Mechanical City, where the blood tide overwhelmed its defenses and drove disciples into madness.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi found the entropy model's key nodes blurred, while deep space identified the Entropy Binding Star Core as a cognitive trap and marked Cheng Xi for restricted containment.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi's suspicion and killing intent toward Cheng Xi intensified, and he resolved to pursue an even more extreme plan.

Cheng Xi identified the Mount Xiao underground cave as the blood sacrifice’s energy hub and helped Qin forces assault it. Eastern Emperor Taiyi destroyed the banner fragment to deny it to his enemies, then deep space erased his memories of the entropy model and weakened him.

• Cheng Xi tracked the blood sacrifice’s energy flows from the Mohist Mechanical City and confirmed the Mount Xiao underground cave as their hub.
• Cheng Xi sent the cave’s location and predicted structure to Yan Lingji, who relayed the intelligence to Ying Zheng.
• Ying Zheng ordered Wang Jian to attack the cave, and Wang Jian led Qin soldiers through its defenses to the secret chamber.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi severed his connection to the banner fragment and detonated Yin Sha Lightning, destroying the fragment and killing the Yin Yang School elder while injuring Qin soldiers.
• Deep space struck Eastern Emperor Taiyi, erasing his memories of the entropy model and causing his cultivation and aura to weaken.

Cheng Xi recovered enough to awaken and use the Dragon Blood Pill to heal himself as the disasters eased after the main banner's avatar was destroyed. Deep space sent him an invitation with an entropy-force model and unknown coordinates, leaving him to weigh the offer amid the continuing threats.

• The destruction of the main banner's avatar disrupted the Five Calamities' coordination, slowing the disasters and giving the survivors relief.
• Ying Zheng spat blood from the backlash of raising the earth veins, stopped his interference, and began healing as the energy reaching Zhurong Peak weakened.
• Cheng Xi awoke, learned of the easing disasters and Ying Zheng's injuries, then used Entropy Restoration Force to extract life energy from the Dragon Blood Pill.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi concealed his aura in Mirage Pavilion and entered dormancy while waiting for another chance to use the remaining disasters.
• Deep space sent Cheng Xi an authentic basic entropy-force model, unknown coordinates, and an invitation to the Land of Truth Seeking.
• Cheng Xi detected the transmission and studied the gifts, uncertain whether deep space's invitation was an opportunity or a trap.

Cheng Xi cautiously accepted deep space’s Entropy Power model while refusing its cosmic coordinate invitation, and deep space shifted its monitoring toward Eastern Emperor Taiyi and his experiments. Meanwhile, Ying Zheng ordered the study of recovered Yin Yang School remnants, Yan Lingji began healing the damaged land, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi prepared a dangerous scheme.

• Cheng Xi isolated the Novice Entropy Power Application Model in a sealed sandbox, stripped away possible hidden marks, and sent deep space a brief reply refusing to visit the coordinate for now.
• Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han to send the remaining Mental Power to the Imperial Astronomical Bureau and have the Yin Yang School classics deciphered under strict supervision.
• Yan Lingji used her Ancestor Witch Power and the earth’s pulse to purify lingering Foul Aura and begin repairing the damaged earth veins around Zhurong Peak.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi sensed Cheng Xi’s exchange with deep space, grew more wary of him, and turned toward blood-sacrifice-tainted artifacts and remains he had collected.
• Deep space recorded Cheng Xi’s cautious refusal, reduced its observation guidance, and increased monitoring of Eastern Emperor Taiyi and his anomalous energy experiment.

Cheng Xi refined his Entropy Power techniques while Yan Lingji discovered a healing path for her Ancestor Witch power, as Ying Zheng began purging the Yin Yang School’s surviving forces. At the Mirage Pavilion, Eastern Emperor Taiyi started creating a destructive lifeform from resentment and baleful energy, drawing the attention of the will in deep space.

• Cheng Xi analyzed and adapted the Entropy Power model, developing precise techniques and more efficient energy-conversion formulas.
• Yan Lingji soothed the wounded earth veins around Zhurong Peak and restored a small measure of vitality to the devastated land.
• Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han and the Black Ice Platform to attack seventeen suspected Yin Yang School strongholds and commanded Wang Jian to keep suppressing demons and unrest.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi used resentment power and Mars baleful energy in a forbidden formation to create a weapon of destruction.
• The will in deep space marked Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s unstable experiment for closer monitoring but chose not to intervene.

Cheng Xi refined his entropy techniques while avoiding dimensional research that could attract Deep Space’s attention, as Ying Zheng’s purge of the Yin Yang School uncovered fragments about overseas immortal mountains and the Returning Abyss. In Yunmeng Marsh, Eastern Emperor Taiyi brought the Evil Soldier close to completion, and Cheng Xi sensed a dangerous disturbance from that direction.

• Cheng Xi’s simulations improved his entropy applications, but a brief attempt at dimensional perception triggered a Deep Space scan, so he halted further research into dimensional abilities.
• Yan Lingji healed the scorched land around Zhurong Peak and vowed to help other disaster zones when Cheng Xi had recovered.
• Zhang Han’s Black Ice Platform raided Yin Yang School strongholds, and Ying Zheng ordered the purge to continue after receiving reports of the school’s extensive infiltration.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi compressed dark red energy into the Evil Soldier’s humanoid form, prompting Deep Space to assess a high risk of rule contamination and prepare a spatial isolation protocol.
• Cheng Xi tested his Entropy Absorption Formula and received Ying Zheng’s intelligence about the purge, overseas immortal mountains, and the Returning Abyss.
• Cheng Xi sensed an abnormal, unstable spatial tremor from Yunmeng Marsh and wondered what Eastern Emperor Taiyi was refining.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi completed the Fiend Infant, an evil being capable of decay and annihilation, while its birth sent dangerous foreign energy into Cheng Xi. Ying Zheng sensed the threat and ordered a more intensive search for the Yin Yang School remnants.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi forged the Fiend Infant from resentment, Star Fiery Energy, and his own heart's blood, while an unseen observer marked it for study.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi tested the Fiend Infant, and its ripple reduced Mysterious Iron Gold and its defensive formation to dust.
• Cheng Xi's Entropy Absorption Formula drew in energy from the Fiend Infant's Rule Contamination, provoking a painful conflict with his entropy power and residual dragon qi.
• Yan Lingji returned to Zhurong Peak and used Ancestor Witch Divine Power to help Cheng Xi stabilize himself.
• Ying Zheng sensed an evil presence and a faint stirring connected to Cheng Xi, then ordered Zhang Han to intensify the search for Yin Yang School remnants near Yunmeng Marsh.

Cheng Xi used his entropy power to resolve the dangerous energy conflict in his body, then discovered that the Fiend Infant in Yunmeng Marsh carried Deep Space’s mark. The Fiend Infant sensed his observation and shattered his Entropy Mirror, leaving Cheng Xi certain that Deep Space had intervened.

• Cheng Xi assimilated the Rule Contamination energy and used it to burn away the residual dragon qi, resolving the conflict but worsening his meridian damage.
• Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han to send Black Ice Platform Elite Guards to monitor Yunmeng Marsh and sent Cheng Xi intelligence about objects of ultimate evil.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi sent the Fiend Infant to absorb resentment and fiendish qi from ancient bones beneath Yunmeng Marsh, while Deep Space’s mark collected negative energy data.
• Cheng Xi used Ying Zheng’s warning and his own perception to create an Entropy Mirror, locating a contaminated presence in Yunmeng Marsh and sensing a silver-white Deep Space mark within it.
• The Fiend Infant detected Cheng Xi’s observation and struck through the mirror’s connection, shattering it and confirming to Cheng Xi that Deep Space had intervened.
