• Ning Ze accepted Saint Fuyun’s invitation to go first, and Saint Fuyun brought out an orange-yellow bell covered in patterns.

Ning Ze endured the second stage longer than any other participant, earning ten Inheritance Secret Techniques before entering the conquest tournament. After defeating eight opponents, he faced Sheng Yao, whom he recognized from Black Moon Heaven.

• Ning Ze realized the second stage required him to match the Ancient Bell's Mystic Patterns to the arena world's evolving formations, then maintained the balance for two years before the world collapsed.

• Ning Ze and Sheng Yao collided with power that shattered the arena’s reinforced space, prompting Saint Fuyun to activate a protective formation around them.
• The combatants continued exchanging sword and spear Secret Arts, while the spectators could not tell which of them would outlast the other.

He boarded Fuchen Sect’s ancient ship for the journey and was summoned by the Sect Master as the assembly’s enormous scale came into view.

• Ning Ze told Si Shi that the second stage of the Miaoran Dharma Assembly had greatly advanced his comprehension of the Chaos Law while revealing his limits.

• Ning Ze connected the damaged Earth Veins to the Four Directions Realm and asked about Zhenyuan Sect's background, but Si Shi said he would explain when Ning Ze was stronger.

Ning Ze entered the Dao of Space after perceiving the Mystic Pattern of spatial points within the Space Barrier, and his Life World began to develop a clearer Dao Charm. After ten thousand epochs of travel, the Ancient Ship reached a city near the Saint King Platform, where Si Shi explained its significance and predicted Ning Ze could someday receive a title there.

• The Divine Eye Clan’s First True Lord teleported away, while Chaos City Lord was pressed by True Gods to contact Xun Jian Ancestor.

After ten Reincarnation Eras, Ning Ze returned to his Miniature Universe and helped its experts attempt breakthroughs, discovering that the Supreme Rule supported their transformations.

• Ning Ze discerned the Dao Charms used by the Saints fighting on the Saint King Platform and set their battle aside to connect to his Miniature Universe.
• Chaos City Lord confined Feilin for ten Reincarnation Eras after Feilin voiced fears that Ning Ze might have fallen, but Ning Ze soon appeared and announced that he would assist those attempting Reincarnation.
• Ning Ze entered the Source Cultivation Space and helped thirteen experts prepare to break through to Void True Gods, while the Supreme Rule descended to assist their Miniature Universes.
• Ning Ze concluded that his Miniature Universe could preserve True Gods beyond the limits imposed on ordinary Holy Land Universes, then formed a new Miniature Universe from accumulated origins.
• Ning Ze used the Path of Life and Dao Charm to reshape the new Miniature Universe, finding that Dao Charm greatly strengthened it but that the transformation consumed too much effort.
• Ning Ze sent more than a hundred Dao Charm manifestations into his Holy Land Universe, causing Primordial Qi to flow into it from the void.

• God Kings watched Luo Feng fight and speculated about his origins, while Ning Ze recognized him from their shared past.
• Ning Ze entered the arena and was paired with Luo Feng; they introduced themselves as Jing Yan of the Zhenyuan Sect and Luo Feng of the Tian Xuan Sect.

After their battle ended, Ning Ze explained how the Life World let him comprehend many kinds of Dao Charm, while Luo Feng recognized how far their foundations could diverge. The Miaoran Dharma Assembly concluded with Jing Yan first and Luo Feng second, and Ning Ze remained with the Zhenyuan Sect after refusing Qing Ye God King’s recruitment and requesting a sealing-type palace treasure.

• Ning Ze told Luo Feng that the Life World’s power had let it comprehend countless kinds of Dao Charm, and Luo Feng realized Ning Ze’s future potential surpassed his own.

Ning Ze received the Purple Cloud Palace from Luo Guang Sheng and learned that he would remain in the Kong Xuan heartland for a Reincarnation Era before returning with Si Shi and the others.

• Ning Ze refused to trade Secret Arts, including the inheritances of Duan Donghe, the Jin Kingdom, and the Zhenyuan Sect.

Ning Ze returned to Zhenyuan Sect after the Miaoran Dharma Assembly, reunited with eighteen old friends from the Four Directions Realm, and spoke with Si Shi about his origins and the Original Universe. He revealed that World Beasts had appeared in his Reincarnation Era, leaving Si Shi stunned by how differently Ning Ze’s history had unfolded than he had assumed.

• Ning Ze failed to trade for treasures in the city, then returned to Zhenyuan Sect and planned to study Exotic Energy and trade through the sect.
• After another Reincarnation, Ning Ze reunited with Chaos City Lord, Giant Axe Creator, and sixteen other Void True Gods who had joined Zhenyuan Sect.
• Ning Ze told Chaos City Lord that Luo Feng was in Tian Xuan Sect and held a higher status than he did.
• Si Shi praised the visitors’ potential, then asked whether Ning Ze could seize the Original Universe to use it as a path toward becoming a Saint or God King.
• Ning Ze said he had agreed with the Original Universe Origin Will not to seize it, and revealed that World Beasts had appeared in his Reincarnation Era.
• Si Shi reacted with shock as he realized that his assumptions about Ning Ze’s past and the group’s journey had been wrong.

Ning Ze cultivated for dozens of Reincarnations while the Human Race grew stronger, but a continent-wide war between the Dead Spirits and their faction forced the Zhenyuan Sect to choose between sending Si Shi or one million Eternal True Gods. Si Shi told Ning Ze about the order and asked what they should do.

• Si Shi questioned Ning Ze about surviving a World Beast, then warned him to become a Saint quickly and revealed that Yong Lin was reincarnating to pursue a breakthrough.
• Ning Ze began closed-door cultivation as Human Race geniuses continued to enter the Origin Continent and Yuan Zu rose to prominence within the Zhenyuan Sect.
• Ao Zhi God King ordered the Zhenyuan Sect to send either one Saint or one million Eternal True Gods to the war against the Dead Spirits, assembling at Xuantian City within ten Reincarnations.
• Si Shi weighed the danger of leaving the sect undefended against draining its forces, then visited Ning Ze and asked him which choice they should make.

Ning Ze and Yuan Zu joined the Zhenyuan Sect’s Eternal True Gods in answering the Life Gate’s call to fight at the Territory borders, and Ning Ze sought another way to prepare after realizing ten reincarnations would not be enough for him to become a Saint. Ten reincarnations later, the assembled forces departed Xuantian City aboard the Saint King Platform, leaving Si Shi behind.

• Ning Ze persuaded Si Shi to call on the Zhenyuan Sect’s Eternal True Gods, and more than a million answered the mobilization order within seconds.
• Ning Ze and Yuan Zu volunteered for the war, and Si Shi confirmed them as participants before urging them to become Saints during the ten remaining reincarnations.
• Ning Ze concluded he could not reach Sainthood in time and left the Holy Land Universe through a super Wormhole toward Black Moon Heaven.

• The Qing Ye Country Lord addressed the forces, summoned the Saint King Platform, and led the participants onto it for their journey to the battlefield.

Ning Ze arrived at the Shi Chi Abyss battlefield with the Zhenyuan Sect’s forces and learned that the war between the living and dead spirit races would be fought by Saints and Eternal True Gods after Saint Kings on both sides had suffered heavy losses. The battlefield had been sealed to confine the fighting, leaving Ning Ze to wonder what the dead spirit race ultimately intended.

• Ning Ze reflected on Rule and decided that his future cultivation path would be the Dao of Infinity, though he still needed to master Chaos Law.
• Ning Ze and Zhen Hao discussed the Chi Kingdom’s Heavenly Force Gods and their defensive strength as their army traveled toward the battlefield.
• The forces reached Shi Chi Abyss, which Ning Ze recognized as the region connected to Qing Cang Realm and the former location of Jin Kingdom.
• Saint Xuan Yuan told the gathered forces that five living-race Saint Kings and seven dead spirit-race Saint Kings had fallen ten Reincarnations earlier, leading both sides to forbid further Saint King-level combat.
• Saint Xuan Yuan announced that the two sides would fight across Shi Chi Abyss, and Ning Ze realized that the battlefield’s formation sealed the space and would prolong the war.

Ning Ze organized ten million Eternal True Gods, prepared a fortified camp, and led them to confront the Undead before they could attack. He discovered an Undead Saint was with the enemy force, then struck first with Abyss Devouring Sword as the Saint retaliated with a Soul Attack and a giant skeletal claw.

• Saint Xuan Yuan placed Ning Ze in command of the troops and left him to prepare for the coming war.
• Ning Ze led the army to a stone platform, established a camp, divided the troops into ten battalions, and assigned them arrays and a combined attack Secret Art.

• Ning Ze encountered an Undead army led by a Saint, sent a request for support, and struck the Saint with an enormous Abyss Devouring Sword.
• The Undead Saint weakened Ning Ze's attack with a Soul Attack and met Abyss Devouring Sword with a giant skeletal claw, which Ning Ze's sword knocked back.
