• Ziyan offered to fight beside Wang Jixuan, but he told her she was too weak and urged the Righteous Path to prepare as he began planning to use nuclear bombs against Huanyu City.

Wang Jixuan used his foreign soul to draw True Lord Tianyan and the demons above Huanyu City while Peony launched three nuclear missiles at the city. After the blasts destroyed Huanyu City and its demonic forces, Wang Jixuan waited underground to assess whether the surviving great demons were weakened enough to finish off.

• Wang Jixuan's foreign soul retreated above the blast while his main body waited underground for the heat to subside and the surviving great demons to weaken.

• Yin Lin sent Wang Jixuan an urgent message announcing wonderful news.

Wang Jixuan learned that Elder Shao would arrive to guide his cultivation and prepared to receive him, while Peony studied the circumstances surrounding his moments of enlightenment.

• The Heavenly Dao’s eyes appeared over the courtyard, pinning Wang Jixuan in place before vanishing without explanation.
• Elder Shao examined Wang Jixuan and speculated that the Heavenly Dao had noticed a change in his fate, then warned him to keep the incident secret.

Wang Jixuan learned that Heaven's Dao wanted him to help Peony develop her computing power, then became Elder Shao's nominal disciple and advanced his artifact-refining studies. After more than ten months of relative calm and unsettling reports from the Immortal Realm, Elder Shao began a three-month refinement, and a bell rang from the northwest corner of Heavenly Net's encampment.

• Wang Jixuan and his companions hid in a subspace as Yin Lin confronted Daoist Baoyan and the Dark Cult’s forces outside the Heavenly Net base.

• Wang Jixuan rejected Elder Shao’s advice to abandon Earth and arranged for Amina and Peony to stay with Yin Lin while he and Zheng Shiduo drew the Dark Cultists away.

• Amina stayed in the Heavenly Net stronghold while Wang Jixuan, Zheng Shiduo, and Elder Shao’s clone emerged from a purple vortex above a brown planet.

Wang Jixuan and Zheng Shiduo hid while Elder Shao’s clone distracted their pursuers, as Heavenly Net and the Dark Cult plunged into total war over Wang Zheng. Suspecting the conflict served a hidden purpose, Wang Jixuan returned to Earth to seek help from Moon God Palace and recover resources, arriving after eleven days with his spiritual sense jolting.

• Elder Shao hid Wang Jixuan and Zheng Shiduo in a cavern and left with stone decoys to lead the pursuers away.

• Peony, Amina, and their allies remained safe, while both factions’ attention centered on Wang Zheng and fighting spread across the Mortal World.
• Elder Shao returned and said both Heavenly Dao Tablets had ordered their factions to wipe out the other, triggering a full-scale war.
• Wang Jixuan chose to return to Earth alone to seek the Stone of the Past and Moon God Palace, and to retrieve a Core Circuit production line and two Advanced Spirit Servants.
• Wang Jixuan reached Earth after eleven days, and his spiritual sense suddenly jolted.

Wang Jixuan returned to Earth while three powerful cultivators searched for him, then went to the City in the Clouds to plan a way to contact Moon God Palace. As preparations began to open the Stone of the Past, he identified the cultivators and formed a plan to use one faction against another.

• Wang Jixuan followed Peony Number Two’s directions through a space transit station and returned to Earth while avoiding three cultivators searching for him.
• Peony Number Two reported that Peony and Amina were safe, while Wang Jixuan ordered Mechs to watch the cultivators and protect Treant Beta without endangering residents.
• Number Zero, Number One, and Number Two discussed how the Heavenly Dao had attacked Number Zero and concluded that the Endless Starry Sky was the Material Universe’s main body.
• Wang Jixuan entered the City in the Clouds, found the Stone of the Past unchanged, and arranged for Shen Qionglin to prepare a Pseudo Stargate.

• Wang Jixuan decided to avoid revealing himself and began forming a plan to Drive Wolves Away by Driving in Tigers.

Wang Jixuan’s attempt to draw the three outsiders into conflict failed at first, but Wu Man’s group drove the Middle-aged Scholar away and forced the Heavenly Net and Dark Cult members to reveal themselves. As Wang Jixuan began an experiment with the Stone of the Past, the Middle-aged Scholar unexpectedly reappeared before Wu Man.

• Wang Jixuan’s crystal-core wreckage bait drew no response, so he sent Wu Man and four Spiritual Practitioners to confront the Middle-aged Scholar near the Giant Tree.
• The Middle-aged Scholar revealed immense power, gave Wu Man two Buddhist-art jade talismans, and departed through a multicolored portal after hearing that Wang Zheng was absent.
• Qin Mianrou spotted the departing scholar and sent word to Heavenly Net, then fought the Dark Cult’s old woman as Wang Jixuan’s forces moved in to surround them.
• Wu Man’s Spiritual Practitioners and the fleet helped drive the wounded old woman into an Immortal Spirit Path, then forced Qin Mianrou to leave Earth as well.
• Wang Jixuan began his Stone of the Past experiment, but the Middle-aged Scholar stepped out before Wu Man and cheerfully greeted him.

Wang Jixuan sought the Moon God Palace skeleton’s guidance about why the Heavenly Dao had marked him, while Yin Lin learned that True Person Baoyan and Dark Cult forces were heading for Earth. The skeleton concluded that Wang Jixuan himself—not his spirit servant or artifact-refining method—was likely destined to threaten the Heavenly Dao, then began demonstrating its abilities.

• Wang Jixuan entered the Moon God Palace and asked the skeleton who had given him the Moonlight Sword for guidance about the Heavenly Dao.
• Yin Lin learned that fifty or sixty Dark Cultists had gone to Earth and that True Person Baoyan was following with more than a dozen others, so he planned to attack their mountain gate after they departed.
• Wang Jixuan told the skeleton about his past lives, his work with the Heavenly Net, and the Heavenly Dao’s attention, and the skeleton suggested he might someday threaten the order of Heaven and Earth.
• The skeleton explained that the Heavenly Dao could predict but not determine the future, and that Wang Jixuan’s spirit servant and combined cultivation technology were not unusual enough to explain the mark.
• The skeleton concluded that Wang Jixuan himself had drawn the Heavenly Dao’s attention and began using a technique to show him what he could do.

Senior Bones traced the Heavenly Dao’s fear of Wang Jixuan to the potential he could gain through Peony and offered him a chance to inherit Moon God Palace’s legacy.

• Senior Bones searched the River of Time and discovered that Wang Jixuan and Peony together had the potential to surpass the Grand Beginning Golden Immortal, which the Heavenly Dao feared.
• Senior Bones explained that the Heavenly Dao saw Peony as part of Wang Jixuan and invited him to return in three years to face three trials for Moon God Palace’s Dao Succession.
• Senior Bones sent Wang Jixuan away, and his body withered as he returned to his place among the skeletons in the hall.
• A Middle-aged Scholar met Wang Jixuan at Wu Man’s side, said he was familiar with the Heavenly Net and the Dark Cult, and explained that people opposed to the Heavenly Dao wanted to meet him.
• The Middle-aged Scholar warned Wang Jixuan that Dark Cultists would arrive in three to five days and offered to recommend him to his allies, while Wang Jixuan began arranging an evacuation and preparations for battle.

Wang Jixuan learned that the Dark Cult was gathering forces to use Earth to draw him out, while Han Xiao invited him to join the anti-Heavenly Dao Thousand Worlds Alliance. He decided to leave Earth and lure the attackers away, then hurried to ask Han Xiao for help reaching Elder Shao and Old Zheng.

• Wang Jixuan met Han Xiao, who invited him to join the Thousand Worlds Alliance and was awed when Wang revealed a trace of the Great Dao of Time.

• Han Xiao gathered the other seven members of the Eight Immortals of the Firmament and brought Wang Jixuan and Zheng Shiduo to Elder Shao’s Clone.
