Chapter Summaries

Lord Locke showed Linley how Primordial Qi could create a world, guiding him toward fusing the laws of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire. After witnessing the world's evolution, Linley found the four laws' points of compatibility and thanked Lord Locke.

• Lord Locke opened a rift beyond the universe and restrained the destructive Primordial Qi in his palm.
• Lord Locke asked Linley to extend his Soul Power toward the Primordial Qi and promised to protect him.
• Lord Locke split the Primordial Qi, creating a world whose elements, laws, and life Linley experienced through his Soul Power.
• Linley focused on the evolution of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire and found the points of compatibility between their laws.
• Linley withdrew his Soul Power and thanked Lord Locke for the guidance and insight.

Linley successfully fused part of the Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire Variant Laws, giving him the potential to transcend the Magic Universe. Lilia’s soul was restored, but Locke decided to wait before bringing her and the others into his true universe because he had not yet mastered the Profound Yellow Qi and it had no intelligent life.

• Linley found a convergence among the four elemental Variant Laws and successfully fused part of them.
• Locke returned to analyzing the Profound Yellow Qi after Linley left.
• Lilia realized her soul was complete and chose to first cultivate her Water and Life Laws to Paragon before attempting heterogeneous fusion.
• Locke sensed that Lilia and the others’ souls had been restored and recognized they could now enter his universe.
• Locke postponed bringing them into the true Eight Trigrams Universe until he had further understood the Profound Yellow Qi.

After completing an Eight Trigrams universe and mastering the Primordial Great Dao, Locke explained the path toward the Profound Yellow Great Dao and visited Hong Meng. He shared his insights with Hong Meng, who saw that Locke’s universe had advanced much farther along that path than his own.

• Locke realized that Profound Yellow Qi represented an incomplete Great Dao and that a perfected Ten Directions universe could fully master it and transcend Primordial Space.
• Locke chose to share the path with Hong Meng, Linley, and Qin Yu rather than pursue transcendence alone, then gathered the Profound Yellow Qi in his universe.
• Locke entered Primordial Space and gained complete control over its Primordial Qi, sensing the Hong Meng Golden Ranking and Hong Meng’s location.
• Locke used Primordial Qi to create a bridge of spacetime and arrived in Hong Meng’s world, where Hong Meng welcomed him as his Second Brother.
• Locke gave Hong Meng an osmanthus leaf bearing his insights, and Hong Meng examined the cultivation path Locke had discovered.
• The chapter compared their universes: Hong Meng’s had traveled halfway along the Profound Yellow Great Dao, while Locke’s Eight Trigrams universe had reached eighty percent.

Locke explained to Hong Meng why the universe-creation method could not give him the mastery he sought, and described his plan to forge Origin Elements and cultivate his own Origin Great Dao. After sharing insights, Locke looked toward the Magic Universe, where another being might soon transcend after him.

• Hong Meng praised the insights Locke had left in a leaf and said they would help him complete his cultivation of universe creation within a hundred evolutionary cycles.
• Locke explained that creating universes might yield only partial mastery of the Profound Yellow Great Dao and warned that a higher realm could reveal it to be a subordinate law.
• Locke resolved to uncover the roots of laws and rules, create Origin Elements through his body, soul, and will, and nurture his own Origin Great Dao.
• After exchanging cultivation insights with Hong Meng, Locke turned his attention to the Magic Universe, where a new Hong Meng Being would soon emerge after him.

As Sovereign Linley and Destiny Overlord Ov moved toward an inevitable battle, Locke returned to the Magic Universe and brought his family’s incomplete universe into his Eight Trigrams Universe. The transfer scattered Luo An, Weil, Gla, and Tina across its depths.

• The Sovereigns anticipated a deadly confrontation between Linley and Ov, with Linley’s eventual breakthrough threatening Ov and Augusta.
• Locke inferred Linley’s uncertain future from the fates of those connected to him, then entered the Magic Universe.
• Locke arrived at Nether Mountain and merged his Water Element Divine Clone into his true body.
• Locke carried the incomplete universe containing his family into his Eight Trigrams Universe.
• The incomplete universe shattered, scattering Luo An, Weil, Gla, and Tina across the Eight Trigrams Universe.

As Locke merged an incomplete universe into the Eight Trigrams Universe, Death Overlord witnessed its destruction and learned that she and the others would become part of Locke’s new universe. Locke gave Lilia the Profound Yellow Bead, which could make her the strongest being in Primordial Space once she refined it.

• Death Overlord sensed the incomplete universe dissolving and became absorbed in the spectacle of its death before Locke brought her to his universe.
• Locke explained that the Eight Trigrams Universe absorbed the incomplete universe’s origin so Death Overlord and the others could merge into it without incompatibility.
• Locke showed Death Overlord the three realms and asked which place she preferred, prompting her to question whether he had already chosen her future path.
• Locke gave Lilia the Profound Yellow Bead and explained that refining it could make her stronger than anyone in Primordial Space.

Locke began creating a Space Great Dao unique to himself by reshaping his bloodline and cultivating his own space elements in a universe without other elements. Meanwhile, Destiny Overlord Ov declared victory over Linley as the Overgods watched their battle.

• Locke left the Luo Meng Universe and entered Primordial Space, where Hongmeng was cultivating in seclusion.
• Locke created an empty universe and resolved to separate himself from the Space Great Dao and establish one of his own.
• Locke began reshaping his Di Jiang bloodline, molding his blood and body to generate space elements unique to him.
• In the Magic Universe, Destiny Overlord Ov announced that he had won as he faced Linley in Spatial Turbulence.
• Life Overlord Vivian, Destruction Overlord Uthred, and nearly all the other Overgods watched Ov and Linley’s battle.

During his battle with Destiny Overlord Ov, Linley grasped the final key to fusing the laws of earth, wind, water, and fire and broke through to a new level of power. After the Law of Heaven and Earth protected him and Primordial Qi transformed his body and soul, Linley counterattacked Ov.

• Destiny Overlord Ov unleashed Beyond Reincarnation, a sword strike that threatened to kill Linley and shake the Magic Universe’s Cosmic Barrier.
• As Ov’s attack neared, Linley understood the final key and fused the four elemental Variant Law Profundities, triggering the descent of the Law of Heaven and Earth.
• Linley’s fused Sovereign’s Might became Primordial Qi, which transformed his body into a Hong Meng Body and tempered his soul into a Hong Meng Spirit.
• The Primordial Qi destroyed the four Sovereign Sparks in Linley’s soul space, but left his soul unharmed and reunited his five divided souls.
• After his transformation greatly increased his strength, Linley raised his longsword and struck back at Destiny Overlord Ov.

Linley killed Destiny Overlord Ov with a strike that tore open the Magic Universe’s barrier, then fell into Primordial Space. There, the Death Overlord appeared and offered to take him to see Big Brother.

• Linley’s sword killed Destiny Overlord Ov and opened a breach in the Magic Universe, letting Primordial Qi pour in and destroy part of it.
• Hong Meng stopped the Primordial Qi from dissolving the Magic Universe and used it to help restore the damaged universe; several Lord Gods had already perished.
• The surviving Lord Gods searched for Linley and Ov, then went to Nether Mountain, where they learned Lord Locke had left the Magic Universe with his family.
• Linley realized he had fallen into Primordial Space and waited for Lord Locke to find him.
• The Death Overlord emerged through a space-time tunnel, demonstrated control over the Primordial Qi, and invited Linley to meet Big Brother.

Linley arrived in Hong Meng’s small world and learned that Hong Meng and the Death Overlord were his Big Brother and Third Sister, while Locke was their Second Brother. Hong Meng gave Linley a method for creating a universe, leaving Linley eager to learn but aware that he lacked the skill and power to create anything substantial.

• The Death Overlord brought Linley through a spacetime tunnel to Hong Meng’s small world and told him to call her Third Sister.
• Hong Meng welcomed Linley as Fourth Brother, and Linley saw five universes, including the Magic Universe, beyond the small world.
• Hong Meng confirmed that Locke was Second Brother and praised his talent, while Linley reflected on how Locke’s guidance had helped him become a Hong Meng Being.
• Linley admitted that he felt far weaker than Locke, Hong Meng, and the Death Overlord, and Hong Meng explained that Linley had yet to create a universe.
• Hong Meng gave Linley an osmanthus leaf containing a method for creating a universe, which Linley studied and judged far beyond his current abilities.

Hong Meng explained that the Hong Meng Golden Ranking was the Primordial Great Dao and that leaving a name on it granted control over Primordial Qi. Linley accepted the opportunity and placed his name in the final first-row position, becoming the fourth first-tier Hong Meng Controller.

• Hong Meng summoned the Hong Meng Golden Ranking, and Linley sensed its overwhelming control over his Primordial Qi.
• Hong Meng explained that only Hong Meng Beings who transcended their universes could earn a place on the ranking, and he described Locke's exceptional achievements.
• The Death Overlord said Locke's Profound Yellow Qi had enabled her to become a Hong Meng Controller, while Hong Meng affirmed that her strength merited the position.
• Hong Meng invited Linley to leave his name on the ranking, and Linley placed his soul aura in the last vacant first-row position, where it formed the character "Lin."

Linley became a first-level Hong Meng Controller and was named Lin Meng, joining Hong Meng, Luo Meng, and Ya Meng. As the group sensed the Primordial Great Dao tremble, they realized Locke had begun to manifest the Space Great Dao, while the Death Overlord waited to see whether his breakthrough would take him beyond Primordial Space.

• Hong Meng named Linley Lin Meng and declared that he, Hong Meng, Luo Meng, and Ya Meng were the four first-level Hong Meng Controllers.
• Primordial Space trembled, and Hong Meng, Linley, and the Death Overlord traced the disturbance to the miniature universe Locke had created in seclusion.
• The group sensed the Space Great Dao appear, and Hong Meng and the Death Overlord concluded that Locke had succeeded in his breakthrough.
• The Death Overlord's cultivation had stalled, so she refined Locke's Profound Yellow Bead and advanced to the Profound Yellow Body and Profound Yellow Spirit realms.
• After entering Primordial Space, the Death Overlord was acknowledged by Hong Meng and added her name to the Hong Meng Golden Ranking, but she still had not seen Locke.

Locke reshaped his soul into the form of a spatial divine beast, completing his unity of body and soul and becoming the source of the Space Great Dao. He recognized that his new Dao would eventually clash with the Primordial Great Dao he already controlled, and chose to pursue a fusion of the two rather than abandon either one.

• Locke began reshaping his soul to match his Dijiang-form body, using the body's power to aid the difficult transformation.
• After a thousand years, Locke completed the reshaping and felt his body and soul merge in unprecedented harmony.
• Locke realized that he had become the source of space and gained control over space even within Primordial Space.
• Locke sensed the Space Great Dao repelling the Primordial Great Dao and understood that the conflict could eventually kill him.
• Locke chose to fuse the two Great Daos, knowing that Hong Meng remained the ultimate authority over the Primordial Great Dao.

Locke expelled the Primordial Great Dao from himself and completed his transformation into the master of the Space Great Dao. His new universe became separate from the Grandmist Universe, leaving Hong Meng unable to perceive it.

• Locke began stripping the Primordial Great Dao from his body and soul as the Space Great Dao gradually drove it out.
• Hong Meng, the Death Overlord, and Linley sensed Locke’s Space Great Dao expelling Primordial Qi, while Locke’s name began fading from the Hong Meng Golden Ranking.
• Hong Meng and the Death Overlord recognized Locke’s departure from the ranking as a breakthrough, and Hong Meng urged Linley to create his own universe.
• Linley left to create a universe, while Hong Meng and the Death Overlord watched Locke’s name disappear from the ranking.
• Locke expelled the final Primordial Law, completed his cultivation, and gained total control over his small universe through the Space Great Dao.

Locke returned to Hong Meng’s small world and explained that his growing Space Great Dao would eventually force him to leave Primordial Space. He reassured Lilia that he had a plan to overcome the conflict between the Great Daos and estimated he had two or three evolutionary eras before his departure became necessary.

• Locke drew the universe space into his body and recognized that Primordial Space’s Great Dao was beginning to reject his own Space Great Dao.
• Locke visited Hong Meng, Linley, and Lilia, and comforted Lilia about the possibility that he would have to leave Primordial Space.
• Locke explained that he planned to find a way to fuse different Great Daos, which could end Primordial Space’s rejection of him.
• Locke urged Lilia to cultivate the Universe Creation Method so she might eventually reach a higher-level space and meet him again.
• Locke estimated that his Space Great Dao would be strong enough to contend with the Primordial Great Dao within two or three evolutionary eras.

Lord Locke and the Death Overlord welcomed Qin Yu as the final first-rank Hong Meng Controller after he created a universe through Stellar Transformations. Qin Yu joined Hong Meng and Lord Locke in discussing universe creation, but he could not surpass Primordial Space’s limit of a first-rank universe.

• Lord Locke welcomed Linley to Hong Meng’s small world and asked him to call him Second Brother.
• Lord Locke and the Death Overlord traveled through the eleven universes together, and the Death Overlord declined to create a universe so a future controller could still become first-rank.
• Qin Yu completed Stellar Transformations, turned his dantian into a universe, and entered Primordial Space with a Profound Yellow Indestructible Body.
• Lord Locke and the Death Overlord visited Hong Meng’s small world to congratulate Qin Yu, where Qin Yu, Hong Meng, and Lord Locke discussed how they had created their universes.
• Qin Yu reached the Five Elements Universe, but Primordial Space’s limits prevented him from advancing beyond a first-rank universe.

Qin Yu created the Qin Meng Universe, while Locke’s conflict with Primordial Space’s Great Dao forced him to leave and enter a wider struggle among Dao Masters. Locke resolved to grow strong enough to return to Primordial Space and reunite with Lilia and the others.

• Qin Yu discussed the Dao with Hong Meng, Locke, Linley, and Lilia, then created the Qin Meng Universe with Mortal, Immortal, Devil, Demon, and God realms designed to limit control of lower realms.
• Locke and Lilia faced their impending separation as Primordial Space’s repulsion toward Locke intensified, and they reaffirmed their love and hope of reuniting.
• Locke unleashed the Space Great Dao, clashed with the Primordial Great Dao, and left Primordial Space as Hong Meng, Lilia, Linley, and Qin Yu endured the aftershocks.
• Locke’s consciousness spread through other spaces, where his Space Great Dao assimilated rival space laws and encountered other Dao Masters in a struggle for the single source of each Great Dao.
• Locke chose to deepen his fusion with the Space Great Dao Origin and vowed to find Primordial Space, reunite with his friends, and transcend every dimension.
