Chapter Summaries

Laozi decided to join the Exposition Sect, believing its ties to Yang Jian and the Chat Group offered the best path to greater strength. His choice disrupted Hongjun’s plan for a Mysterious Gate alliance, while Yuanshi learned that his elder brother was serious.

• Laozi judged that the Human Teachings had little meaning to him beyond Xuandu and chose the Exposition Sect as the best way to advance.
• Laozi reasoned that the Three Pure Ones might someday reconcile, though he considered a merger between the Exposition Sect and the Interception Sect nearly impossible.
• Yuanshi asked whether Laozi truly intended to join the Exposition Sect.
• Hongjun realized Laozi and Nuwa joining the Exposition Sect had ruined his plan for a Mysterious Gate alliance.
• Yuanshi remained unconcerned about the failed alliance and considered the Exposition Sect one of Myriad Worlds City's strongest forces, with Yang Jian and himself as Sixteenth and Seventeenth Order experts.

Yuanshi welcomed Laozi into the Exposition Sect and brought his teacher and companions to Myriad Worlds City. Meanwhile, the Chat Group’s newest member, Ying Zheng, began cultivating after a transmigrator appeared in his Qin Shi world.

• Laozi accepted Yuanshi’s offer to join the Exposition Sect, while Tongtian stayed silent and refused to join.
• Zhunti and Jieyin flattered Yuanshi, who felt satisfied after receiving their praise.
• Yuanshi led everyone from the Lotus Lantern World toward Myriad Worlds City.
• The Chat Group’s latest commotion centered on a transmigrator appearing in Ying Zheng’s Qin Shi world, where Qin had not yet begun conquering the six states.
• Ying Zheng borrowed funds to start cultivating immortality rather than wait for the company’s next dividend.

Ying Zheng devoted himself to immortal cultivation after joining the Chat Group, hoping to establish a Great Qin destiny dynasty once he became immortal. When he reached the Golden Core Stage, a mysterious pillar of light appeared over Xianyang, baffling the Yin Yang School as Eastern Emperor Taiyi claimed Qin possessed the Mandate of Heaven.

• Ying Zheng planned to make Great Qin a destiny dynasty modeled on Zhu Wushi's Great Ming Heavenly Court, but focused first on cultivating immortality.
• Ying Zheng left Lu Buwei to manage court affairs while he used Chat Group resources and techniques to advance his cultivation.
• Ying Zheng broke through to the Golden Core Stage, and a pillar of light descended over Xianyang City.
• Ying Zheng recognized the pillar as an illusion, while the city's ordinary people and martial artists mistook it for a divine miracle.
• Moon God asked Eastern Emperor Taiyi whether the phenomenon proved Qin possessed the Mandate of Heaven, and he claimed that Qin alone among the seven states had it.

A staged divine spectacle appeared over Xianyang, persuading the crowd and Eastern Emperor Taiyi that immortals existed. Ying Zheng saw through the trick and discovered that the apparent immortal was an ordinary mortal bearing an unknown power, possibly a transmigrator.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Moon God watched a pillar of light erupt into a scroll while Ying Zheng recognized the display as a staged miracle.
• The scroll revealed a lifelike landscape, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Moon God speculated that it showed a world connected to immortals and the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions.
• A young man appeared inside the painting, and people across Xianyang cried out that an immortal had appeared and knelt in worship.
• Ying Zheng used his Spiritual Sense to investigate the young man and found that he was an untrained mortal carrying a mysterious power.
• Ying Zheng wondered whether the man pretending to be an immortal was a transmigrator.

Li Ke used the system’s Real Points and Illusory Mirror to stage an immortal’s grand appearance over Xianyang City, though he was an ordinary man who had spent all his points. He reflected on his transmigration to the Qin Shi world and the Mirror’s usefulness there, since its martial artists could not see through its illusions.

• Li Ke watched the citizens of Xianyang kneel and call him an immortal while reminding himself that his appearance and aura were false.
• Li Ke recalled that he had been an ordinary corporate worker who transmigrated to the Qin Dynasty and dreaded losing modern comforts such as his phone, internet, and good food.
• Li Ke relied on the system to survive, using Real Points to buy items from its Mall and believing he needed to earn more points to obtain what he needed.
• Li Ke explained that he had spent all his Real Points on the grand entrance and had used the Illusory Mirror from his beginner gift pack to create the display.
• Li Ke noted that the Illusory Mirror’s illusions could fool ordinary people and Qin Shi martial artists because even Heavenly Being Realm warriors lacked the Magic Power needed to see through them.

Li Ke used the Illusory Mirror to deceive Xianyang’s residents and gained millions of Real Points, but Ying Zheng saw through his act and recognized him as a dangerous transmigrator with a system. Ying Zheng reported Li Ke to the Myriad Worlds Chat Group and held back from using his Ninth Order Immortal Artifact so he would not alert him.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Moon God believed Li Ke’s illusion was a world within a painting, though Taiyi had not reached complete faith.
• Li Ke gained several million Real Points by making the people of Xianyang believe his display of mystical power.
• Li Ke celebrated his windfall and imagined that he might fool Ying Zheng, unaware that Ying Zheng had already joined the Myriad Worlds Chat Group.
• Ying Zheng used the Chat Group’s records and files to identify Li Ke as a transmigrator who likely had a system.
• Ying Zheng told the Chat Group about Li Ke and withheld his Ninth Order Immortal Artifact, recognizing that the system was the real threat.

Bai Yu and the Chat Group members left many discovered systems unused because raising them required scarce World Origin, which Bai Yu was saving for the Yin Yang Dao Fruit. He reflected on the few systems that might reach the Thirtieth Order, including his own, whose true nature he could only guess at.

• The Chat Group members had collected systems from transmigrators but left them in storage because they could not afford to nourish them with World Origin.
• Bai Yu’s Law Dao Body had found many systems through the Myriad Worlds Tokens, but he also left them unused while the Yin Yang Dao Fruit in the Mysterious Bright Treasure Bead still needed World Origin.
• Bai Yu had already collected enough systems capped at the Innate Spiritual Treasure level and wanted systems with a Thirtieth Order upper limit instead.
• Bai Yu recalled four systems he knew might reach the Thirtieth Order: the system from Langya World, Myriad Worlds City, the Chat Group, and his own system.
• Bai Yu concluded that his system was at least Thirtieth Order because of its Myriad Worlds Gate, but he remained uncertain about its power to aid comprehension of all Origin Great Daos.

Bai Yu explained the difference between Innate and Postnatal Spiritual Treasures, focusing on the Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light that made innate treasures self-repairing. The Chat Group members discussed how to capture Li Ke’s transmigrator without alerting the powerful system and considered upgrading their equipment.

• Bai Yu decided he would no longer take systems capped at Innate Spiritual Treasures unless they had already reached that grade, preferring to save World Origin for systems with a Thirtieth Order limit.
• Bai Yu explained that Innate Spiritual Treasures contained Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light, while Postnatal Spiritual Treasures could be flawless and specially tailored but lacked that light.
• Bai Yu noted that the Qiankun Cauldron could condense Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light and return the Mysterious Bright Treasure Bead from postnatal to innate.
• The Chat Group members discussed how to lure Li Ke’s transmigrator to Myriad Worlds City because forcefully sealing the Qin Shi world risked letting the system escape.
• Call Me Group Owner proposed upgrading their equipment and said Limitless Pavilion had listed several Twenty-sixth Order Great Dao spiritual treasures.

Shi Yaoyao proposed buying an Innate Spiritual Treasure to counter systems, but the Chat Group members were shocked by the group leader’s plan and its enormous cost. They concluded that capturing Li Ke in the Qin Shi world would be nearly impossible using that world’s own power, since his system had already given him several million Real Points.

• Shi Yaoyao suggested purchasing an Innate Spiritual Treasure because Sixteenth Order law treasures struggled against systems.
• The Chat Group members considered the expense and noted that they were still consolidating their foundations, while Sixteenth Order treasures remained useful for combat.
• The group discussed how they used a world’s native power to capture transmigrators without alerting their systems, and how systems could otherwise act or escape.
• The group determined that they would need to use the Qin Shi world’s own power to capture Li Ke without triggering his system.
• The group realized that Li Ke’s millions of Real Points made capturing him with the Qin Shi world’s martial artists practically impossible.

Shi Yaoyao urged the Chat Group to buy an Innate Spiritual Treasure with Saint Spirit Stones so they could confront Li Ke and take advantage of the current prices. Bai Yu saw no reason to interfere, since he valued the World Origin behind the stones more than the stones themselves.

• Shi Yaoyao and the others concluded that Li Ke had likely gained a major advantage from his system and could now be difficult to capture.
• Shi Yaoyao proposed buying an Innate Spiritual Treasure, but Sect Master Baiyue, Xiongba, and the Maoshan Heavenly Master questioned whether they could afford one.
• Shi Yaoyao explained that Sixteenth-Order treasures were too weak against systems and that Innate Spiritual Treasures could currently be bought with Saint Spirit Stones.
• Yang Jian and the others recognized that Saint Spirit Stones might no longer buy Innate Spiritual Treasures once Myriad Worlds City introduced a higher-tier currency.
• Bai Yu disregarded the discussion because Saint Spirit Stones were easy for him to produce, while the World Origin backing them was what he truly valued.

The Chat Group members discussed how to buy an Innate Spiritual Treasure despite most veterans spending their Saint Spirit Stones on relatives and close associates. Shi Yaoyao proposed crowdfunding a shared treasure, and the group began pooling funds so they could capture the transmigrator in the Qin Shi world.

• The group agreed that they should buy Innate Spiritual Treasures before Myriad Worlds City introduced a higher-tier native currency.
• Yang Jian, Chonglou, and other members said they could not afford a treasure because people close to them still needed Saint Spirit Stones, while Jiang Yuyan, Yue Qiluo, and Li Yunrui had large reserves but still lacked enough to buy one alone.
• Shi Yaoyao recognized that most veterans could not cover the high cost and proposed buying an Innate Spiritual Treasure as shared Chat Group property through crowdfunding.
• The group accepted the proposal because the treasure’s capture system could benefit every member and they needed to handle the transmigrator in the Qin Shi world soon.
• The members reported their Saint Spirit Stones to Shi Yaoyao, and Yue Qiluo, Li Yunrui, Jiang Yuyan, and Shi Yaoyao contributed the bulk, leaving Yang Jian and others owing them unless they increased their investment.

Yang Jian and the other group members pooled their Saint Spirit Stones to buy low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures from Bai Yu’s Limitless Pavilion, while the chapter weighed the costs of Yang Jian remaining tied to the Exposition Sect. They arrived on the Pavilion’s fifth floor, where its naturally formed treasures left them astonished by Bai Yu’s cultivation.

• The chapter explained that Yue Qiluo had secured the Qingyun Dao Sect’s resources and could rebuild it easily, while Yang Jian remained bound to the Exposition Sect despite the benefits of starting over.
• The group members pooled their Saint Spirit Stones and took on some debt to afford the cheapest low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures listed by Bai Yu.
• Yue Qiluo, Li Yunrui, Shi Yaoyao, and Jiang Yuyan contributed the largest shares, spending the stockpiles they had accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years.
• The group gathered on the fifth floor of the Limitless Pavilion and saw its vast selection of treasures, all at least Twenty-sixth Order.
• Shi Yaoyao wondered whether Bai Yu had plundered the Primordial World, then recalled that his Twenty-eighth Order cultivation explained the naturally formed treasures.

Shi Yaoyao and the Chat Group members bought the Earth Yellow Bell to capture a system, relying on Limitless Pavilion's authorization to use the treasure. They traveled to Ying Zheng's Qin Shi world to witness the operation, where the group turned its attention to Li Ke.

• Shi Yaoyao chose the Earth Yellow Bell for its suppressive power, defense, and inner Cave Heaven, and explained how it could trap a system.
• Shi Yaoyao purchased the Earth Yellow Bell and received the Earth Yellow Token, which granted authority to use it.
• The group members agreed to travel with Shi Yaoyao to the Qin Shi world and witness the capture of a system.
• Ying Zheng welcomed the group at his palace in Xianyang, and the members looked toward Li Ke.

Li Ke created an enormous illusory world above Xianyang City for his grand finale, while Shi Yaoyao used the Earth Yellow Bell to seize control of the Qin Shi world's laws. The bell shattered Li Ke's illusions and destroyed his Illusory Mirror, leaving his performance abruptly ended.

• Li Ke projected the landscape inside his painting over Xianyang City after harvesting nearly all its residents' Reality Points.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi flew toward the apparent Immortal Realm, while Ying Zheng recognized that it was an illusion created by a spirit mirror.
• Shi Yaoyao sent the Earth Yellow Bell into the void, and it took control of the Qin Shi world's laws.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi touched the illusory world and believed he had reached the Immortal Realm as Li Ke fantasized about recruiting him and pursuing the Yin Yang School's women.
• Shi Yaoyao rang the Earth Yellow Bell, shattering Li Ke's illusions and annihilating the Illusory Mirror.

Li Ke discovered that his system had gone dormant under the Earth Yellow Bell’s suppression, and Shi Yaoyao forcibly stripped it from him. The system was removed, but Li Ke’s soul was severely damaged by the painful process.

• The Immortal Realm vanished, leaving Eastern Emperor Taiyi devastated and Li Ke frozen in midair under a mysterious force.
• Li Ke realized that his system had stopped responding and suspected it was the force’s true target.
• Shi Yaoyao confirmed that the Earth Yellow Bell had suppressed the system and forcibly removed it from Li Ke.
• Li Ke endured agonizing pain as the system was stripped away, leaving his soul badly damaged.

Shi Yaoyao examined the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror and learned it was a damaged law treasure with a slumbering history tied to a powerful Great Thousand World. The mirror ended up with her, leaving the Chat Group exposed to the danger of whatever karma might follow it.

• Shi Yaoyao examined the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror and discovered it was a Twenty-fifth Order law treasure that had condensed a Nascent Great Dao.
• Bai Yu had found the mirror’s core origin was defective, its remnant soul belonged to a former Thirtieth Order expert, and the mirror could not advance without its missing origin.
• Bai Yu erased the remnant soul and recovered fragmented memories that revealed the coordinates of a Great Thousand World containing twenty-eight Origin Great Daos.
• Bai Yu had avoided taking the mirror because its severed origin and the remnant soul’s past carried the risk of great karma and a powerful enemy seeking it.
• Shi Yaoyao received the mirror, and any karmic danger was likely to lead first to the Chat Group rather than to her personally.

Shi Yaoyao obtained the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror and learned that its Virtual-Real Qi could let its user forge falsehood into reality. Bai Yu recognized the Virtual-Real Great Dao’s vast potential, while the mirror remained beyond Shi Yaoyao’s ability to refine.

• Shi Yaoyao was delighted to obtain the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror, a twenty-fifth-order supreme treasure with a Nascent Great Dao.
• Shi Yaoyao discovered that the mirror held more than ten million strands of Virtual-Real Qi, despite Li Ke’s system panel showing fewer than four million Real Points earned.
• Shi Yaoyao realized that anyone with enough Virtual-Real Qi could use the mirror, and she imagined the group gathering more by displaying divine might in ordinary worlds.
• Bai Yu considered comprehending and bearing the Virtual-Real Great Dao after recognizing the mirror’s limited power compared with the true Dao.

Shi Yaoyao and the Chat Group tested whether the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror could turn World Origin real, but even ten million strands of Virtual-Real Qi produced no change. After the group left the Qin Shi world and Ying Zheng resumed cultivation, Li Ke was left without his system or Illusory Mirror, while Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Moon God continued toward Xianyang with their memories erased.

• Shi Yaoyao used the Virtual-Real Spirit Mirror to create a phantom World Origin, but ten million strands of Virtual-Real Qi failed to make it real.
• Shi Yaoyao and the group decided to gather more Virtual-Real Qi and test the mirror again, while Ying Zheng said they could ignore Li Ke.
• Shi Yaoyao and the Chat Group left the Qin Shi world, and Shi Yaoyao erased Xianyang City's memories of the day's events.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Moon God, their memories of the incident erased, looked toward Ying Zheng's palace to seek Qin's help in uncovering the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi planned to use the Yin Yang School’s alliance with Qin to pursue the secret of the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions, presenting it to Ying Zheng as a path to immortality. During their meeting in the Qin royal palace, Ying Zheng’s imposing presence frightened Eastern Emperor Taiyi despite the latter’s confidence in his own power.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi chose to cooperate with Qin because it was powerful enough to destroy the six states and held the royal key to the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi planned to link the Mansions’ secret to immortality so Ying Zheng would help the Yin Yang School unravel it.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi met Ying Zheng in the Qin royal palace and offered the Yin Yang School’s cooperation.

• Moon God and Eastern Emperor Taiyi felt afraid of Ying Zheng’s presence, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi lowered his head rather than meet the king’s eyes.
