Chapter Summaries

The Reapers’ arrival began draining the Primordial World’s vitality, forcing Ying Zheng to mobilize Immortal Qin and send Yan Lingji’s team to strike back. With guidance from Cheng Xi’s forming consciousness, the team disrupted a star corpse’s energy node, while a sinister presence watched from a newly opened rift.

• Ying Zheng ordered Wang Jian and Meng Wu to build defenses, Li Si to expand Spirit Core production, and Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi to seek a counterattack.
• Ai Wen identified weak energy-channel nodes, and Yan Lingji’s team launched an assault on a smaller Reapers star corpse.
• Yan Lingji and the Qin Death Warriors fought through the star corpse’s defenses as Cheng Xi’s light dust formed a clearer Consciousness Core.
• Cheng Xi guided Yan Lingji to an energy node, and Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi struck it, interrupting the star corpse’s Vitality Siphon.
• A tiny Spatial Rift opened in the Sea of Shifting Sands, where an unknown pair of abyssal eyes watched the battle and the exhausted survivors.

As the Reapers and the abyss turned their attacks on each other, Cheng Xi briefly communicated with Yan Lingji and showed her how to use a Chaos Vortex to disrupt their clash. Her intervention damaged both enemies and left Yan Lingji unconscious, caught by Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi.

• The abyssal rift spread its influence over the battlefield, weakening Qin Death Warriors with whispers while Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi tried to protect them.
• The Reapers attacked the abyssal rift, and the two outside forces began clashing while Immortal Qin gained a brief reprieve.
• Cheng Xi's consciousness awakened enough to speak with Yan Lingji and explain the Reapers' and abyss's powers and vulnerabilities.
• Yan Lingji gathered the Qin army's faith and vital energy, Ai Wen's beam of order and purification, and her own Ancestor Witch Origin into a Chaos Vortex.
• Yan Lingji sent the chaotic light sphere into the enemies' point of balance, distorting their attacks and badly damaging both the star remnant and the abyssal claw.
• Yan Lingji collapsed from exhaustion, and Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi caught her.

After the battle in the Sea of Shifting Sands, Cheng Xi’s consciousness grew into a Chaos Nebula that began healing Yan Lingji as Immortal Qin prepared for a wider war. Ying Zheng learned that the Reapers’ main force was nearing and the abyssal rift might lead to the Eternal Silence Abyss, then ordered preparations for the coming catastrophe.

• Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi caught unconscious Yan Lingji and found her soul and magical power exhausted but her origin unharmed.
• Cheng Xi’s Consciousness Core became a rotating Chaos Nebula and fused more deeply with Yan Lingji while nourishing her and refining energy through the Kongtong Seal Phantom.
• Ying Zheng received reports of severe losses, worsening defenses, and rising abyssal corruption, then ordered expanded spirit core production, opened the Imperial Family treasury, and called skilled people to the Human Dao Academy.
• Ai Wen warned Ying Zheng that the Reapers’ main force had reached the outskirts of the galaxy cluster and that the rift might connect to the Eternal Silence Abyss.
• Ying Zheng activated the Buzhou Mountain Plan, contacted Empress Pingxin about the underworld and the Ancestor Witches’ resurrection ritual, and ordered the Sea of Shifting Sands forces to protect Yan Lingji and the chance to revive the Imperial Preceptor.
• Cheng Xi sensed Ying Zheng’s orders and the approaching threats, realizing that time was running out and that the Chaos Nebula needed to grow faster.

Cheng Xi developed the Chaos Nebula by studying Nirvana laws and human Dao energy as Immortal Qin prepared for a looming crisis. When the Reapers sealed the Primordial Core Region and the Abyss spread demonic shadows, Cheng Xi realized that awakening Buzhou Mountain might break the spatial cage and called Yan Lingji to contact Ying Zheng.

• Cheng Xi analyzed Nirvana Origin and human Dao faith, stabilizing the Chaos Nebula and deepening its internal laws.
• Li Si organized production and research in Xianyang, while Ying Zheng oversaw construction of the Kindling Fire Altar and Wang Jian and Meng Wu strengthened the frontier defenses.
• Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi protected Yan Lingji as Abyssal Whispering Demonic Shadows attacked the camp’s Heart-Cleansing Formation.
• Ai Wen detected Reaper star remnants emitting Spatial Anchoring ripples that imprisoned the Primordial Core Region and hindered teleportation and escape.
• Cheng Xi traced the Chaos Nebula’s resonance to Buzhou Mountain and urged the sleeping Yan Lingji to wake and contact Ying Zheng about resetting Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

Ying Zheng used the Kindling Fire Sacrifice and Cheng Xi’s guidance to summon Buzhou Mountain’s lingering will, temporarily disrupting the Star Remnants’ spatial imprisonment. The enemies counterattacked, while Cheng Xi exhausted himself and Yan Lingji began to stir.

• Ying Zheng raised the Seed of Kindling Fire and unleashed the people’s faith, melting the Whispering Demonic Shadows and interrupting the Star Remnants’ Vitality Siphon.
• Cheng Xi connected through Yan Lingji’s Chaos Nebula to Ying Zheng and shared a method for using Buzhou Mountain’s will to overwrite the Star Remnants’ spatial coordinates.
• Ying Zheng summoned the Dragon Vein Earth Energy and invoked Buzhou Mountain, whose phantom cracked the spatial imprisonment.
• Xuan Chengzi warned that the Star Remnants’ anchoring had only been destabilized, and the Star Remnants fired a destructive beam at the altar as an abyssal claw attacked the dragon veins.
• Xuan Chengzi, Fairy Yaochi, Wang Jian, and Meng Wu tried to intercept the attacks while Cheng Xi, nearly spent, entrusted the rest to Yan Lingji, whose eyelashes trembled.

Yan Lingji awakened and weakened the destructive beam, while Ai Wen’s Star Spirit escort ship broke the Reapers’ Spatial Lockdown. The victory opened the Primordial World to greater threats, and Ying Zheng faced a choice between fortifying their defenses and reclaiming the Kongtong Seal at Shouyang Mountain.

• Yan Lingji awakened with renewed Ancestor Witch power and used protective witchfire to scatter and delay the beam aimed at Xianyang, allowing Ying Zheng and the altar to survive.
• Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi restrained the abyssal giant claw while Ai Wen ordered the Star Spirit escort ship to detonate its order core and shatter the Spatial Lockdown.
• The abyssal claw withdrew, but the rift expanded, and its voice warned that the Primordial World’s coordinates were exposed and its master was approaching.
• Ai Wen reported that the Reapers’ main force was locating the world faster and that the Nirvana Demonic Eye had turned its gaze toward the rift.
• Ying Zheng asked whether they should repair their defenses or risk going to Shouyang Mountain to reclaim the Kongtong Seal, while Yan Lingji resolved to protect Cheng Xi’s wish.

Ying Zheng led Yan Lingji and an elite force on a dangerous jump to Shouyang Mountain to reclaim the Kongtong Seal. They arrived near the mountain, discovered signs of Reaper and abyssal corruption, and prepared to infiltrate its Heavenly Dao restrictions as corrupted patrols watched nearby.

• Ying Zheng ordered Li Si, Wang Jian, and Meng Wu to defend Qin while he led Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, Fairy Yaochi, Ai Wen, and elite Black Dragon Guards toward Shouyang Mountain.
• Ai Wen launched a short-range jump guided by Yan Lingji's connection to the Kongtong Seal, and Chaos Waves helped the ship survive violent spatial turbulence.
• The damaged escort ship crashed about three hundred li from Shouyang Mountain, where Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi sensed Heavenly Dao restrictions and traces of star-remains corruption.
• Yan Lingji sensed the Kongtong Seal inside the mountain, suppressed and corrupted, and detected a concealed trace of the abyss.
• Ying Zheng, Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, Fairy Yaochi, and Ai Wen devised a plan to infiltrate the restrictions using Chaos Power and Dragon Qi.
• Bagua-robed figures bearing an annihilating aura patrolled the mountain as the Kongtong Seal cried out from within.

Yan Lingji led Ying Zheng, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi through Shouyang Mountain’s restrictions using chaos power, and they reached the Eight Views Palace, where the Kongtong Seal was being corrupted. Taishang Laojun’s projection appeared and told them they would have to pass the Three Obstacles to take the seal.

• Ying Zheng’s dragon qi failed to bypass Shouyang Mountain’s restrictions because Heavenly Dao’s Will rejected it.
• Yan Lingji used Chaos Light Dust, Ancestor Witch blood vitality, and Ying Zheng’s dragon qi to disguise the group from the restrictions and guide them deeper into the mountain.
• The group reached the Eight Views Palace and heard the Kongtong Seal’s Seal Spirit crying as abyssal power corrupted it.
• Dark-red blood threads attacked the group, but Taiqing Immortal Light from the palace gate dissolved them and halted the nearby Daoist child puppets.
• A projection of Taishang Laojun appeared and told Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji that they had to pass the Three Obstacles to take the Kongtong Seal.

Ying Zheng, Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi overcame the Mind and Reason Obstacles set by Taishang Laojun's incarnation. They entered Eight Views Palace to face the Dao Obstacle and persuade the struggling Kongtong Seal to choose its own path for the Human Race.

• Taishang Laojun's incarnation sent the four into Mind Obstacle illusions shaped by their deepest fears, and Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji found the resolve to break through them.
• Ying Zheng's dragon qi and Yan Lingji's heartfire resonated, shattering the Mind Obstacle and returning the four to Eight Views Palace.
• Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi failed to comprehend the Reason Obstacle's complex labyrinth, but Yan Lingji absorbed its principles with the Chaos Nebula and broke its foundational axiom.
• Taishang Laojun's incarnation revealed the Kongtong Seal and explained that the final Dao Obstacle required Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji to convince its Seal Spirit to willingly choose its master.
• Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji approached the pain-stricken Kongtong Seal, while Yan Lingji's depleted Chaos Nebula reacted to its aura.

Ying Zheng convinced the Kongtong Seal Spirit to reject Taishang Laojun’s control, while Yan Lingji’s Chaos Nebula fused with the seal and helped it break free. The seal chose Ying Zheng, but Taishang Laojun moved to trap them in Shouyang Mountain as Cheng Xi warned that the true trial had only begun.

• Ying Zheng urged the Kongtong Seal Spirit to embrace humanity’s self-reliance instead of Heavenly Dao protection, but Taishang Laojun’s imprint continued to suppress it.
• Yan Lingji connected her Chaos Nebula and Kindling Fire Origin Imprint to the Kongtong Seal, showing the spirit a non-coercive path for evolution.
• Yan Lingji’s Chaos Nebula left her sea of consciousness and merged into the Kongtong Seal, giving it the strength to shatter Taishang Laojun’s imprint and repel the Abyssal Bloodlines.
• The Kongtong Seal chose Ying Zheng and entered his arms, completing its change of ownership.
• Taishang Laojun unleashed his fury and tried to imprison Ying Zheng and the others, but Ying Zheng used the seal’s Human Dao Radiance to resist the pressure.
• A consciousness within the seal told Yan Lingji and Ying Zheng to leave Shouyang quickly, then fell dormant as it merged with the seal.

Ying Zheng and his companions escaped Shouyang Mountain with Ai Wen’s help, then survived a coordinated attack by the stellar corpse and the abyss through Yan Lingji’s use of Chaos. They reached Xianyang City, but Ai Wen warned that the Reapers’ advance units would arrive in low orbit within three days and the Nirvana Demonic Eye was growing stronger.

• Ying Zheng used the Kongtong Seal to break a passage through Taishang Laojun’s Heavenly Dao chains, and Yan Lingji’s Chaos resonance briefly slowed the pursuing saint’s hand.
• Ai Wen used the escort craft’s tractor beam to pull Ying Zheng, Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi aboard and flee Shouyang Mountain.
• The stellar corpse fired a disintegration beam as the abyss formed a demonic net to trap the escaping craft.
• Yan Lingji amplified the opposition between the two attacks with Chaos, triggering an explosion that let Ai Wen’s damaged craft escape the encirclement and descend toward Xianyang City.
• Ai Wen warned that the Reapers’ advance units would reach low Earth orbit within three days and that the Abyss Rift and Nirvana Demonic Eye were rapidly intensifying.

After returning the Kongtong Seal to Xianyang, Ying Zheng rallied humanity to strengthen the Human Dao Net as Immortal Qin faced the Reapers and a spreading abyssal corruption. He ordered preparations for the Buzhou Mountain plan and an accelerated attempt to revive the Ancestor Witches, while Yan Lingji sensed a call from Pangu Hall.

• Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang with the Kongtong Seal and learned that Ai Wen had warned them they had only three days.
• Ying Zheng ordered Li Si to announce that humanity’s fate belonged to humanity, then channeled the growing human belief into the Kongtong Seal and Human Dao Net.
• Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi discovered that the Abyss Rift was transforming the Sea of Shifting Sands into a corrupted stronghold as demonic creatures intensified pressure at the borders.
• Ying Zheng asked Empress Pingxin to help enact the Buzhou Mountain plan and bring forward the revival of the Ancestor Witches.
• Yan Lingji sensed a faint heartbeat and reported that she might have heard Pangu Hall calling.

Yan Lingji reached the Gate of Xuan Ming with Xuan Chengzi and Fairy Yaochi to seek Empress Pingxin’s help reviving the Ancestral Witches for Ying Zheng’s Buzhou Mountain plan. After surviving Pangu Hall’s Du Tian Shen Sha baptism, she approached its manifested gate, but the Nirvana Demonic Eye’s blood arrow struck her Chaos barrier.

• Ying Zheng used the Kongtong Seal to strengthen the Human Dao Net and Dragon Vein Earth Qi while a concealed party led by Yan Lingji traveled north from Xianyang.
• Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi met Empress Pingxin at the Gate of Xuan Ming and asked for Earthly Dao support and the revival of the Ancestral Witches.
• Empress Pingxin explained that Yan Lingji could serve as a catalyst for the resurrection ritual and challenged her to endure Pangu Hall’s Du Tian Shen Sha baptism.
• Yan Lingji endured the Chaos Killing Intent Energy, strengthened her Witch bloodline, and earned Pangu Hall’s acknowledgment as its projection appeared.
• As Yan Lingji approached Pangu Hall’s gate, the Nirvana Demonic Eye launched a dark-red blood arrow that pierced through Empress Pingxin’s defense and collided with Yan Lingji’s Chaos barrier.

Yan Lingji entered Pangu Hall and received Pangu’s imprint and the dormant true spirit imprints of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, triggering the ritual to revive them across the Primordial Earth. As enemies attacked the ritual sites, she fled toward Xianyang with Xuan Chengzi and the others while a vast will among the star husks locked onto her Pangu Imprint.

• Empress Pingxin dissolved the Abyss Lord’s blood arrow with chaos killing intent and struck back through the Spatial Rift, forcing the attacker to retreat.
• Yan Lingji entered Pangu Hall, endured Pangu’s test, and received a Dark Gold bloodstream containing fragments of Pangu’s Law of Strength along with the Twelve Ancestral Witch true spirit imprints.
• Pangu Hall’s disturbance sent twelve Dutian Divine Fiend Energy pillars to the scattered Ancestor Witch Essence Blood sites, and Empress Pingxin opened netherworld passages to guide the ritual.
• The star husks targeted the Gate of Xuan Ming and the pillars while the Abyss Lord sent a flesh-and-blood hand to seize Gonggong’s essence blood pillar.
• Yan Lingji emerged as the ritual’s hub, and Empress Pingxin stayed behind to hold off the attacks as Yan Lingji fled toward Xianyang with Xuan Chengzi and the others.
• As they entered the void, Yan Lingji sensed a vast will among the star husks lock onto her and the Pangu Imprint within her.

Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi escaped the star corpse’s attack when Ying Zheng used the Kongtong Seal and Immortal Qin’s Human Dao conviction to open a golden bridge to Xianyang. After Yan Lingji delivered the Pangu Rune Stone and news of the northern crisis, urgent reports revealed the enemies were preparing a full assault, and Ying Zheng rallied the defenders.

• The star corpse trapped Yan Lingji, Xuan Chengzi, and Fairy Yaochi in the void and targeted them with an extinction beam.
• Yan Lingji used a jade talisman to send Ying Zheng the spatial weak point and a plea for help, guided by the Pangu Imprint.
• Ying Zheng drew on the Human Dao conviction of Immortal Qin to form a golden bridge that carried the three fugitives to Xianyang, weakening the Dao Net and draining the people.
• Yan Lingji gave Ying Zheng a dark gold Rune Stone tied to reviving the Twelve Ancestral Witches and warned him that Empress Pingxin was resisting Star Abyss alone.
• Urgent reports warned that Empress Pingxin was weakening, the star corpse fleet was nearing attack range, and the Abyss Rift was rapidly expanding.
• Ying Zheng ordered defenses reinforced and rallied the soldiers of Immortal Qin to defend humanity.

As Star Remnants and the Abyss pushed Xianyang and the Primordial Era to the brink, Ying Zheng invoked the Blood Sacrifice of Ten Thousand Spirits to awaken Buzhou Mountain. Its manifestation nullified the Star Remnants’ cannon attack, while the Ancestor Witches began returning and the Chaos Consciousness awakened within the Kongtong Seal; the chapter ended as the enemies prepared their final attacks.

• Star Remnants’ Void Decomposition Cannon struck Xianyang’s Human Dao Net, nearly destroying the city’s defenses, while the Abyss threatened the Ancestor Witches’ essence blood and Empress Pingxin’s domain weakened.
• Ying Zheng ordered the Blood Sacrifice of Ten Thousand Spirits and sacrificed his Dragon Qi, Great Qin’s dragon veins, and a portion of his people’s lifespans to summon Buzhou Mountain.
• Buzhou Mountain manifested above Xianyang and silently nullified the Star Remnants’ second cannon volley by negating its power to decompose existence.
• Yan Lingji used the Pangu Rune Stone to strengthen the twelve Du Tian Shen Sha Light Pillars, and Empress Pingxin stabilized the Netherworld passages as the Ancestor Witches’ essence blood converged.
• The Chaos Consciousness awakened within the Kongtung Seal, began absorbing the resonance of Buzhou Mountain and the Ancestor Witches, and stirred Ying Zheng’s recognition of Cheng Xi.
• The Star Remnants formed a Dark Singularity for a combined cannon strike as the Abyss raised a colossal demonic skull aimed at Buzhou Mountain.

The Chaos Star Vortex absorbed the attacks of the Star Remnants and the Abyss as the Twelve Ancestral Witches returned and joined forces to defend the Primordial Era. Cheng Xi partially awakened through Yan Lingji, erased the Demon Skull, and sensed a powerful presence approaching with the main fleet.

• The Chaos Star Vortex dismantled and absorbed the Star Remnants' and Abyss's combined attacks, growing stronger as Ying Zheng sensed the consciousness within the Kongtong Seal awakening.
• The Twelve Ancestral Witches returned in their true forms, combined their powers, and used the Great Formation of the Heavens and Fiends to shatter the three Star Remnants' shields and cripple them.
• The Abyss's Demon Skull attacked Yan Lingji to disrupt the Ancestral Witches' formation, but the Chaos Star Vortex fused with her Pangu Imprint and bloodline.
• Cheng Xi partially awakened through Yan Lingji and erased the Demon Skull with a gesture, frightening the Nirvana Demonic Eye.
• Cheng Xi looked toward the approaching main fleet and sensed that it contained a presence connected to the root by a path opposed to Chaos.

After Cheng Xi’s consciousness receded, Yan Lingji and Ying Zheng learned that the Reaper fleet’s Unity Fortress was approaching to impose absolute order on the Primordial World. The defenders raised a Primordial Barrier to buy time for Cheng Xi, but the fortress’s Law Chains began eroding the world’s laws, while its Unifiers detected an anomaly connected to the Chaos Variable.

• Yan Lingji told Ying Zheng that Cheng Xi had awakened briefly and needed time to integrate and understand unity.
• Ai Wen revealed that the Unity Fortress, core combat unit of the Reaper civilization, was nearing the Primordial World to impose its Order Domain.
• Yan Lingji relayed Cheng Xi’s advice to hold the world’s defenses and seek a chance to introduce a Chaos Variable into the Unity Fortress.
• Ying Zheng ordered the Twelve Ancestral Witches to build a Primordial Barrier and directed Li Si, Wang Jian, and Meng Wu to withdraw their forces and defend it.
• The Unity Fortress sent Law Chains that began stiffening the Primordial Barrier’s laws, forcing the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Ying Zheng to struggle against the erosion.
• The Unifiers detected an abnormal signal linked to a person in the resisting world who was strongly connected to the Chaos Variable.

As the Unity Fortress’s Law Chains weakened the Primordial Barrier, the Nirvana Demonic Eye used the damage to smuggle abyssal corruption inside. Cheng Xi awakened enough to turn Yan Lingji into a concealed Chaos Variable coordinate targeting the fortress, but the Unity Fortress detected her and both its chains and the abyssal bloodlines converged on her.

• The Unity Fortress’s Law Chains suppressed the Primordial Barrier, and Xuan Chengzi warned that it would fall within three days if the erosion continued.
• The Nirvana Demonic Eye sent dark-red bloodlines through gaps between the Law Chains and the barrier to corrupt it from within, and Empress Pingxin struggled to purge them.
• Cheng Xi awakened through the Chaos Light Dust and told Yan Lingji that her connection to chaos could carry a concealed coordinate into the Unity Fortress’s core.
• Yan Lingji accepted the plan, and the dark-gold Rune Stone fused with her Pangu Imprint aura, Ancestor Witches Bloodline, and Chaos Light Dust.
• The Unity Fortress detected Yan Lingji as an Omega-level Chaos Variable and sent specialized chains to capture her as Ying Zheng and the Twelve Ancestral Witches tried to protect her.
• A portion of the abyssal bloodlines also turned toward Yan Lingji, closing in as the specialized chains reached her.

Yan Lingji was nearly erased by the Unity Fortress’s Law Chains until the Chaos Origin awakened and Cheng Xi temporarily manifested through her. Cheng Xi countered the fortress’s attacks, but it initiated a Cosmic Zero Return Program, forcing him to prepare a dangerous move.

• The Unity Fortress’s Law Chains and the Abyssal Bloodlines attacked Yan Lingji, while Ying Zheng and the Twelve Ancestral Witches failed to free her.
• The Chaos Origin erupted from the Kongtong Seal, disrupted the chains, and gathered around Yan Lingji’s chaos coordinate, allowing Cheng Xi to manifest through her body.
• Cheng Xi reversed the fortress’s attacks with his Chaos Great Dao and appeared before its core to strike.
• The Unity Fortress initiated its Cosmic Zero Return Program, counting down to a three-light-year cosmic reboot.
• Cheng Xi withdrew his hand and began compressing the Chaos Qi to use a move ahead of time.
