Chapter Summaries

Wu Tian and his allies invaded the Faith True Realm as the Twenty-Four-Grade Lotus Platform rooted itself in the world and began pinning down its Heavenly Dao. Cornered, the Faith Demon God offered to merge his realm into the Primordial Wilderness, but Wu Tian was left skeptical of the proposal.

• The Twenty-Four-Grade Lotus Platform resisted the Demon Gods’ attacks and sent purple light rooting into the Faith True Realm, while Wu Tian fought off the Faith Demon God and their forces.
• Di Jun, Taiyi, Tongtian, Zhen Yuanzi, and the Ancestral Witches entered the realm and attacked the Demon Gods and their followers.

• The Faith Demon God offered to voluntarily merge the Faith True Realm into the Primordial Wilderness to avoid destruction and reduce the damage to World Origin.
• Wu Tian found the Faith Demon God’s offer absurd and doubted that accepting the Chaos Demon Gods would be wise.

Wu Tian merged with the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array to unleash a strengthened Pangu True Body and attack the Faith Demon God. As Wu Tian drained the demon's origin and the Faith True Realm's Heavenly Dao, he sent the power to Wangshu to refine.

• Wu Tian ignored the Faith Demon God's pleas and merged with the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array and Pangu Hall to manifest a colossal Pangu True Body.

• Di Jun struck the Chaos Bell to restrain the Faith Demon God, allowing Wu Tian's spear to pierce him.
• Wu Tian trapped the Faith Demon God inside the array and battered him, while the Purple Samsara Lotus corroded the Faith True Realm's Heavenly Dao.
• The God-Slaying Spear drained the Faith Demon God's and the Heavenly Dao's origins, and Wu Tian sent them to the Origin Realm for Wangshu to refine.

• Wangshu accepted Wu Tian’s gift of origin power and began refining it with the Origin Realm’s laws.
• The Faith Demon God scattered his body among the realm’s living beings, but found the Twenty-Four-Petaled Samsara Lotus prevented him from escaping.
• Di Jun used the Chaos Bell to immobilize the Demon Gods, allowing Tongtian to destroy the true bodies of the Light, Darkness, and Fear Demon Gods.
• The Ancestral Witches, Taiyi, and Zhen Yuanzi joined Wu Tian and Di Jun as the Faith True Realm continued to collapse.
• Zhen Yuanzi used the Book of Earth and an Innate Spiritual Root to stabilize the realm, prompting the Faith Demon God to possess a twelve-winged figure and fly upward.
• Wu Tian’s God-Slaying Spear destroyed the possessed figure and the Faith Demon God’s thought within it.

Wu Tian and his allies suppressed the Faith Demon God and began harvesting the Faith True Realm’s World Origin to strengthen themselves and the Origin Realm. While Wu Tian chose not to absorb it, he used Zhen Yuanzi’s Book of Earth to prepare to move the world closer to the Primordial World.

• Zhen Yuanzi’s Ginseng Fruit Tree took root in the Faith True Realm and began absorbing its World Origin as the Book of Earth barrier spread.
• Wu Tian pierced the Faith True Realm’s sea of origin with the God-Slaying Spear and invited his allies to harvest its power.
• Di Jun, Taiyi, Tongtian, and the Ancestral Witches entered the sea of origin to devour its power, while Xuan Ming and Houtu went together.
• Wu Tian sent the God-Slaying Spear into the sea of origin, and its Law of Devouring fed the Origin Realm and helped Wangshu’s true spirit recover.
• Wu Tian declined to absorb the World Origin himself and borrowed Zhen Yuanzi’s Book of Earth to move the Faith True Realm nearer to the Primordial World.
• Wu Tian expanded into his Pangu True Body in Chaos until he was as large as the Faith True Realm.

Wu Tian used the Book of Earth and the Purple Samsara Lotus to pull the Faith True Realm through Chaos, while Di Jun urged Taiyi and the Ancestral Witches to grow stronger so they could fight beside Wu Tian. Watching from hiding, Hongjun realized Wu Tian had grown stronger and fled when Wu Tian’s gaze swept toward him.

• Wu Tian pulled the Faith True Realm forward with power from the Book of Earth and the Purple Samsara Lotus as the Six Paths of Reincarnation suppressed the world’s tremors.
• Taiyi offered to help Wu Tian, but Di Jun told him to cultivate and become strong enough to fight alongside Wu Tian in the future.
• Dijiang and the Ancestral Witches took Di Jun’s words to heart, and everyone continued refining the World Origin.
• Wu Tian used his Pangu True Body and Pangu Hall to accelerate the Faith True Realm through Chaos, devouring the chaos energy and shielding the world from its erosion.
• Hongjun watched from hiding, judged that Wu Tian was nearing the Heavenly Dao Realm, and wondered whether Wu Tian’s Pangu lineage explained his growth.
• Wu Tian turned his gaze toward Hongjun’s hiding place, and Hongjun immediately retreated deeper into Chaos.

Wu Tian let Hongjun escape while continuing to drag the Faith True Realm through Chaos, and Wangshu recovered her original strength and attained the Primordial Origin Dao in the Origin Realm. After celebrating her breakthrough, Yang Jian was left troubled by thoughts of Fairy Yun Hua.

• Wu Tian decided not to pursue Hongjun, hoping he would lure more Chaos Demon Gods to the Primordial Wilderness, and continued refining chaotic qi as he traveled through Chaos.
• Wangshu's true spirit healed as the Origin Realm developed, allowing her to recover her strength as the Lunar Demon God and attain the Primordial Origin Dao.
• Wu Tian amplified the God-Slaying Spear's power to help Wangshu absorb more energy, while a vast moon appeared over the Origin Realm and moonlight benefited its inhabitants.
• Fuxi, Kong Xuan, Yuan Feng, and others congratulated Wangshu, who explained that her breakthrough would help the Origin Realm and shared refined Origin with everyone present.
• Kong Xuan noticed Yang Jian's unease, and Yang Jian worried that Fairy Yun Hua was the only one among them who had not attained the Primordial Origin Dao.

Yang Jian resolved to cultivate harder after Kong Xuan advised him not to worry about Fairy Yun Hua’s origins, while Wangshu’s breakthrough strengthened Wu Tian and intensified the pull between the Faith True Realm and the Primordial World. Wu Tian stopped the two realms at a manageable distance and prepared to visit the Earth Immortal Realm, where Ying Zheng had unified the land and the Ancestral Dragon was about to return.

• Kong Xuan advised Yang Jian to focus on cultivation rather than compare Fairy Yun Hua with the other martial mothers, and Yang Jian decided to make full use of his favorable training conditions.
• Nezha asked what was troubling Yang Jian, so Yang Jian suggested making Nezha’s cultivation more intense, and the two began playfully fighting as their companions laughed.
• Wangshu’s attainment of the Primordial Origin fed back into Wu Tian’s body, making him more powerful and allowing him to absorb Chaos qi more forcefully.
• Di Jun and the others learned of Wangshu’s breakthrough and resumed cultivating, while Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and the other Ancestral Witches grew anxious about the remaining places for Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortals.
• Wu Tian halted the Faith True Realm near the Primordial World after the worlds began attracting each other, and Empress Pingxin proposed using reincarnation as a passage between them.
• Wu Tian left the rest to Di Jun and headed for the Primordial World, planning to visit the Earth Immortal Realm before selecting beings to enter the Faith True Realm, where Ying Zheng had completed his unification and the Ancestral Dragon was about to return.

Wu Tian guided Bai Qi to reveal that the First Emperor Ying Zheng could not cultivate because the fortune gathered upon him acted as a shackle. Bai Qi proposed forging the Twelve Golden Men and using them to form the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array, which could let Ying Zheng absorb baleful energy and seek eternal life.

• Wu Tian descended into Great Qin and found Bai Qi, who had hidden in a remote mountain village after faking his death.
• Bai Qi appeared before the First Emperor, who asked whether Bai Qi knew a way to achieve eternal life.
• Bai Qi explained that the fortune of all under Heaven prevented the First Emperor from cultivating.
• Bai Qi revealed his Great Witch true body and urged the First Emperor to draw on the Qin people's Witch Clan bloodline.
• Bai Qi offered a method: gather the realm's weapons, forge the Twelve Golden Men, and use them to form the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array.

Wu Tian taught Bai Qi the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array to help First Emperor Ying Zheng forge the Twelve Golden Men and break through his limits. Ying Zheng used the array and Great Qin’s fortune to achieve a breakthrough, then thanked an unseen fellow Daoist.

• Wu Tian sent Bai Qi to assist First Emperor Ying Zheng in forging the Twelve Golden Men with a simplified Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array.
• Bai Qi abandoned his pretense of feigning death, returned to Xianyang, and helped Ying Zheng awaken his Witch Clan bloodline while gathering weapons across the realm.
• The Twelve Golden Men absorbed the baleful energy gathering over Xianyang and used it to strengthen Ying Zheng, but fortune and Karma blocked his final step.
• Ying Zheng directed Great Qin’s fortune through the Twelve Golden Men, broke his invisible shackles, and collected the transformed figures into his hand.
• Ying Zheng looked toward empty space and thanked an unseen fellow Daoist for lending a hand.

Wu Tian rewarded Bai Qi and congratulated Ying Zheng after the Ancestral Dragon’s memories returned. As the great experts gathered, Ying Zheng reunited with Candle Dragon and saw how badly his elder brother had deteriorated, then looked to Wu Tian for help.

• Wu Tian appeared before Bai Qi and gave him a fragment of consciousness to refine, strengthening his body.
• Wu Tian congratulated Ying Zheng on returning as the Ancestral Dragon, and Ying Zheng explained that he had awakened early to preserve his Human Clan identity.
• Taiqing, Haotian, Queen Mother of the West, Goddess Nuwa, and other experts arrived and greeted Ying Zheng.
• Candle Dragon arrived, and Ying Zheng reunited with him, finding his body unstable and nearing decay.
• Ying Zheng looked to Wu Tian, silently asking him to save Candle Dragon.

Wu Tian agreed to help Candle Dragon recover from his decayed condition and revealed that the laws of the Light and Darkness Demon Gods might offer him a path to recovery and greater power. The First Emperor and Candle Dragon thanked Wu Tian, while the others reacted with shock at the opportunity he offered.

• The First Emperor asked Wu Tian to save Candle Dragon and offered his brother as Wu Tian’s mount.
• Candle Dragon agreed to become Wu Tian’s mount, but Wu Tian refused to treat him as one and accepted a wisp of his spiritual light instead.
• Wu Tian explained that Candle Dragon could try to absorb the intact laws of the Light and Darkness Demon Gods, whose true spirits remained within a conquered world’s Heavenly Dao.
• The First Emperor and Candle Dragon gratefully accepted the opportunity, while Queen Mother of the West, Nuwa, Haotian, and Taiqing reacted to Wu Tian’s revelation.

Wu Tian arranged for Candle Dragon and the First Emperor to join a campaign into the Faith True Realm, supporting them with treasures and advice to help Candle Dragon escape the sea eye. As they departed to prepare, Taiqing called out to Wu Tian to stay.

• Wu Tian explained the campaign into Chaos and offered Candle Dragon the chance to conquer the Faith True Realm with the First Emperor.
• The First Emperor asked Wu Tian for permission to bring Great Qin's soldiers, and Wu Tian agreed and empowered the Imperial Jade Seal and Twelve Golden Men.
• Wu Tian advised Candle Dragon and the First Emperor to seek Shen Gongbao's help and have Candle Dragon make an oath to the Heavenly Dao to reduce the cost of escaping the sea eye.
• The First Emperor and Candle Dragon agreed to prepare for the campaign, then both departed to handle their affairs.
• As Wu Tian prepared to leave with Queen Mother of the West and Nuwa, Taiqing called, "Fellow Daoist, please stay!"

Wu Tian reassured Taiqing that Duobao and Lu Ya would settle their rivalry themselves, then prepared to oversee the campaign against the Faith True Realm. Taiqing, fearing he would be left behind, volunteered to help and lent Wu Tian the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda.

• Taiqing told Wu Tian that he had reincarnated Duobao as Duobao Tathagata for the coming Journey to the West Tribulation and mentioned Duobao's conflict with Lu Ya.
• Wu Tian said Lu Ya and Duobao had to follow their own fortunes and that he would not interfere in the Journey to the West Tribulation.
• Wu Tian explained that he needed to oversee the Faith True Realm and plan the campaign with Empress Pingxin and the First Emperor.
• Haotian invited Wu Tian to visit the Heavenly Court, and Wu Tian asked him to remain there and manage the realm after it was conquered.
• Taiqing offered to join future campaigns against Chaos Demon Gods, and Wu Tian asked to borrow his Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda to suppress the Faith True Realm.
• Taiqing lent Wu Tian the pagoda despite realizing Wu Tian also wanted to study its power.

Wu Tian borrowed Taiqing’s Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda and arranged for Xuandu to spread teachings in the Faith True Realm in Taiqing’s name. After Taiqing and Haotian departed, Wu Tian explained Taiqing’s motives to Nuwa and Queen Mother of the West, then said he had things to tell them.

• Taiqing lent Wu Tian the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda after making him promise to return it.
• Wu Tian reassured Taiqing that he would be invited to help if enemies from beyond the domain appeared, and offered to send Xuandu to spread teachings in Taiqing’s name.
• Taiqing accepted the arrangement, thanked Wu Tian, and departed; Haotian also left under Queen Mother of the West’s and Nuwa’s gazes.
• Nuwa remarked that Taiqing had paid an unnecessary price, and Wu Tian explained that Taiqing had used the loan to ensure he would not be left behind.
• Wu Tian told Nuwa and Queen Mother of the West that he had a few things to discuss with them.

Wu Tian arranged for the Primordial Wilderness’s forces to enter the Faith True Realm safely and discussed the Lingming Stone Monkey with Nuwa. Nuwa agreed to let Wu Tian take the monkey as his disciple once it was born.

• Wu Tian instructed Queen Mother of the West to send Xuan Wu and other allies into the Faith True Realm, promising safe passage and protection for their true spirits if they died.
• Wu Tian told Nuwa to select Demon Clan members for the expedition and suggested rewarding those who had followed him during the Great Shang era.
• Nuwa revealed that her apparent gambling losses helped her earn merit and goodwill, and said Yun Hua and Yang Chan could rely on merit if their cultivation proved limited.
• Wu Tian asked Nuwa about the Sky-Mending Stone that had become the Lingming Stone Monkey, a key figure in the Journey to the West Tribulation.
• Wu Tian asked Nuwa’s permission to take the Lingming Stone Monkey as his disciple, and Nuwa gladly agreed.

After Wu Tian promised Queen Mother of the West and Nuwa that they could visit him in the Faith True Realm, Nuwa secretly infused the unborn Lingming Stone Monkey with her Saint's essence blood. Wu Tian decided to help the monkey refine it and give him a dream of the hardships from his original life, leaving him to wonder whether the monkey would believe he was a transmigrator or someone reborn.

• Wu Tian reassured Queen Mother of the West and Nuwa that they could travel with him in the Faith True Realm, and both women began preparing to go there.
• Nuwa used the Creation Qiankun Cauldron to conceal the Heavenly Secrets and sent a drop of her Saint's essence blood to the Sky-Mending Stone on Flower-Fruit Mountain.
• The Sky-Mending Stone absorbed Nuwa's essence blood, strengthening their karmic connection and briefly disrupting the Heavenly Secrets.
• Wu Tian sensed the disturbance, discovered Nuwa's action, and realized the essence blood could delay the Lingming Stone Monkey's birth.
• After discussing the matter with Empress Pingxin, Wu Tian decided to help the monkey refine the essence blood and weave his original-life experiences into a dream.

Wu Tian and Empress Pingxin created a passage and an instant-reward system for the Faith True Realm to support warriors fighting beyond the Primordial World. Xuan Wu led the Demon-Quelling Army through the new passage, where a purple lotus mark appeared on his hand and delivered information.

• Wu Tian gave the Lingming Stone Monkey a dream of a full lifetime, helping it absorb the sage's blood essence and mature its foundation.
• Wu Tian proposed linking the Origin Realm and Six Paths of Reincarnation to the Faith True Realm so fallen warriors could return, then suggested a stats panel that rewarded battle merits immediately.
• Empress Pingxin agreed to refine the system around the Twenty-Four-Petaled Samsara Lotus, while she and Wu Tian established a stable passage beyond the Chaos Fetal Membrane.
• Xuan Wu brought a hundred thousand Demon-Quelling Army troops, the Nine Heavens Profound Woman, and female immortals from the Jade Pool to the passage outside the Primordial World.
• Xuan Wu set up the True Martial Emperor Hall as a base, led the army through the passage, and received a purple lotus mark that revealed information to him.

Xuan Wu and his soldiers bound systems from Empress Pingxin before entering the Faith True Realm and battling its cultivators. In the Primordial World, Candle Dragon won permission to leave the East Sea Eye and fight beyond the realm, while Shen Gongbao took over suppressing it.

• Xuan Wu bound the system and instructed his soldiers to bind theirs, after which they bowed to Empress Pingxin and proceeded through the Reincarnation passage.
• Xuan Wu and his soldiers arrived in the Faith True Realm, where they fought the cultivators drawn to attack them.
• Wu Tian watched Xuan Wu's group and reflected on never having received a system himself.
• Candle Dragon swore an oath to fight beyond the realm, promising to bring back World Origin and laws for the Primordial World.
• Empress Pingxin and Wu Tian approved Candle Dragon's request, and the powers of the Earthly, Human, and Heavenly Dao removed the chains holding him in the Sea Eye.
• Candle Dragon emerged from the Sea Eye as Shen Gongbao used his divine office to take over suppressing it.

Candle Dragon escaped the sea eye and received permission to take Dragon Clan members beyond the Primordial World, while Shen Gongbao accepted three treasures in gratitude. Wu Tian watched the First Emperor depart and turned his attention to the Sky-Mending Stone as the Lingming Stone Monkey was born.

• Candle Dragon thanked Shen Gongbao for freeing him and gave him three treasures, including the Innate Water-Splitting Sword, which Shen Gongbao accepted.
• Shen Gongbao told Candle Dragon he could take younger Dragon Clan members beyond the world, and ninety-nine true dragons joined him.
• The First Emperor's Mausoleum rose into the sky, pulled by the ninety-nine dragons, and left the Earth Immortal Realm for beyond the Primordial World.
• Wu Tian watched the Sky-Mending Stone as the spirit embryo absorbed Saint Nüwa's blood essence and the stone burst apart, heralding the Lingming Stone Monkey's birth.

Wu Tian left Flower-Fruit Mountain after arranging for Patriarch Bodhi to appear, while the newly born Lingming Stone Monkey awakened with memories of Sun Wukong’s previous life. Sun Wukong hid his knowledge, became the Handsome Monkey King, and secretly grew stronger as powerful observers watched him.

• Wu Tian bid Empress Pingxin farewell, prepared to suppress the Faith True Realm, and sent a second version of himself into the Primordial World as Patriarch Bodhi.
• The Lingming Stone Monkey recognized Flower-Fruit Mountain and Water Curtain Cave from his memories, then wondered whether he was Sun Wukong living another life.
• Suspecting that unseen forces were watching, Sun Wukong decided to conceal his memories and follow events until he could seek Patriarch Bodhi at Mount Lingtai Fangcun.
• Sun Wukong played like an ordinary monkey, discovered Water Curtain Cave, and earned the title of Handsome Monkey King from the troop.
• Sun Wukong avoided practicing cultivation openly but ate heavenly treasures, steadily strengthening his body while distant divine experts admired his composure and potential.
