Chapter Summaries

Han Yuan’s die strengthened the Great Su Realm and its attack on Yongxu Daoist, who became wary of Taigu City Lord and decided to seek reconciliation. Meanwhile, Taigu City became inaccessible from the outside, and rival cities drew away its would-be visitors.

• Han Yuan’s die stopped at a multiplier of six, doubling the Great Su Realm’s diameter and enhancing its spacetime.
• Yongxu Daoist’s spacetime bodies perished, and a second unexplained attack cost him six epochs of origin mana, frightening him into taking Taigu City Lord’s power seriously.
• Yongxu Daoist blamed Eternal Daoist for leading him into trouble, then gathered treasures and headed for Taigu City to apologize and make an ally of its lord.
• Taigu City became a phantom that outsiders could neither touch nor enter, though its residents remained reachable from outside.
• Spies for Myriad Monster City and Tianxing City persuaded gathered travelers to visit the new cities, diverting traffic from Taigu City.

After Taigu City returned, Han Yuan reassured Leng Yue that its business could endure competition because its operating costs were effectively zero. Meanwhile, Linley discovered that Myriad Monster City's currency could not be freely exchanged for Primordial Spirit Crystals, and the Golden Ox Dao Venerable proposed attacking Taigu City's money house by triggering a run.

• Han Yuan reconnected Taigu City to the Chaos River of Time and Space, allowing outside Sages to leave while he continued cultivating.
• Leng Yue warned Han Yuan that new rival cities were threatening Taigu City's profits, but he said its residents and zero-cost currency gave it a lasting advantage.
• Linley entered Myriad Monster City, paid its entry fee, and learned that its Myriad Monster Coins were only usable within the city.
• At the Myriad Monster Money House, Sage Kui Niu refused a female Sage's request to exchange Myriad Monster Coins for Primordial Spirit Crystals, prompting her to regret leaving Taigu City.
• After seeing the Sages' dissatisfaction, Sage Kui Niu consulted the Golden Ox Dao Venerable, who proposed causing a run on Taigu City's money house to exhaust its reserves.

Linley explored Myriad Monster City and found its Primordial Chaos Mana Crystal exchange less favorable than Taigu City's, with lower conversion rates and impure crystals. He left empty-handed and headed back to Taigu City to stock up.

• Linley obtained a Myriad Monster Card and visited the Primordial Chaos Mana Hall, where he learned the city refined mana at eighty percent efficiency and initially bought crystals back at eighty percent of market price.
• Hu Ersheng defended Myriad Monster City's conversion method against Saints who cited Taigu City's Ancient Battlefield, then raised the buyback price to ninety percent.
• Linley bought a Great Dao Crystal and found it impure, while another Saint showed that Taigu City's crystals were pure and free of impurities.
• Linley requested a refund, and Hu Ersheng approved it after realizing Taigu City's refund guarantee had no time limit.
• Linley surveyed Myriad Monster City's buildings and Scripture Repository, then left empty-handed aboard his Time-Space Treasure Ship for Taigu City.

Saint Venerable Jin Niu and Hu Ersheng attended a summit where five city leaders agreed to form an alliance, pay rent to the local ruler, and target foreign plundering groups and Taigu City. The alliance planned to undermine Taigu City's currency exchange business and draw away its customers.

• Saint Venerable Jin Niu ordered Myriad Monster City to adjust its operations to match Taigu City's standards and allow limited currency exchanges.
• Saint Venerable Jin Niu brought Hu Ersheng and Sage Kui Niu to a summit with the leaders of Tianxing City, Buxiu City, Freedom City, and Manghuang City.
• Ziwei Dao Venerable explained that the local ruler was a mid-level Luotian Dao Venerable and demanded ten percent of each city's revenue, and the five leaders agreed to pay.
• The five Dao Venerables agreed to unite against foreign plundering groups in the region.
• The five Dao Venerables decided to weaken Taigu City by competing with the Primordial Money House's exchanges and intercepting its customers with Space-Time Ships.

Han Yuan raised the Primordial Money House’s exchange rate for Primordial Violet Qi, drawing a flood of merchants and shocking the five Dao Venerables. The exchange brought Han Yuan a vast supply of Primordial Violet Qi, though its unexpectedly enormous volume left him wondering what was happening.

• Han Yuan ordered Wangcai to raise the Primordial Violet Qi exchange rate to one to one-point-five, and Wangcai announced the change.
• Linley arrived in Taigu City, saw the crowded queue at the Primordial Money House, and learned that the exchange rate had risen by fifty percent.
• Spies reported the change to five Dao Venerables, who dismissed Taigu City’s plan as reckless but decided to continue their exchange operation on a much larger scale.
• Linley exchanged most of his Primordial Coin and Primordial Violet Qi for nearly three hundred million Primordial Spirit Crystals and worried that Taigu City might go bankrupt.
• Han Yuan saw a lake of Primordial Violet Qi gathered in his study and realized that the amount being exchanged was far greater than expected.

Han Yuan discovered that exchanges at the Primordial Money House had brought him billions of strands of Primordial Violet Qi, likely supplied by the forces behind the five surrounding cities. He used the resulting resources to expand his cultivation and began to glimpse the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao.

• Han Yuan noticed that Primordial Violet Qi exchanges had surged to three billion strands and realized that minor figures were arriving with unusually large amounts.
• Han Yuan saw Saints streaming into Taigu City and anticipated that the forces behind the five surrounding cities might attack if their businesses could not compete.
• Han Yuan used Primordial Violet Qi and the Great Su Realm's production cycle to generate Primordial Spirit Crystals, while the realm's Saints and Heavenly Dao Origin strengthened the cycle.
• Han Yuan's Primordial Violet Qi reserves climbed to thirty billion strands before the exchanges slowed, and he accelerated the Great Su Realm to meet demand.
• Han Yuan spent Primordial Violet Qi advancing his Great Dao comprehensions and began to perceive the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao.

Han Yuan glimpsed the birth of the Dao Shi Realm and learned that the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao could defend against and devour even primordial Chaos. With his Dao nearing attainment but lacking Primordial Violet Qi, he watched the five cities' Dao Venerables grow cautious after exchanging a huge supply.

• Han Yuan witnessed the Great Beginning Dao emerge from primordial Chaos, give birth to Great Su and myriad Daos, and form the first world before the Great Dao Will sent his consciousness back to the future.
• Han Yuan realized his path was to reverse-engineer the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao and understood its powerful defense, devouring, and transformation abilities.
• Han Yuan saw that all 10,800 Primordial Chaos Great Daos were complete and the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao was near attainment, but he needed more Primordial Violet Qi to avoid waiting three thousand Evolution Eras.
• The five Dao Venerables reported exchanging a total of twenty-five billion strands of Primordial Violet Qi for Primordial Spirit Crystals and confirmed the crystals were genuine.
• Ziwei Dao Venerable proposed that the five cities first convert their Primordial Spirit Crystals back into Primordial Violet Qi and postpone deciding whether to exchange more with Taigu City.

Han Yuan met Yongxu Daoist, who apologized for invading his old home and offered him a mid-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure and another sealed gift. Han Yuan accepted both and welcomed Yongxu to Taigu City, while Yongxu was astonished by the city’s enormous Saint population.

• After three months without the expected manpower returning from the five cities, Han Yuan noticed Yongxu Daoist entering Taigu City and arranged to meet him in a tavern.
• Yongxu Daoist apologized for his earlier raid and explained that he and Eternal Daoist were brothers born from the same riverbed, though he resented Eternal for taking half his origin.
• Han Yuan opened Yongxu’s first gift and found the Void Mirror, a mid-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure that could reflect the River of Time and Space and seal space-time.
• Yongxu judged Han Yuan’s reaction insufficient and offered a second, sealed treasure, prompting Han Yuan to accept the gifts and invite him to dine.
• As they sampled Taigu City’s unusual cuisine, Yongxu noticed the city’s vast population of more than five billion Saints.

Eternal Daoist told Kong Mo and Wu Yun about Han Yuan’s extraordinary strength and Taixu Dao, and the three Dao Venerables decided to meet him. Han Yuan welcomed them at the city gate, where Kong Mo noticed that Han Yuan’s time and space stood apart from chaotic space.

• Eternal Daoist reunited with Kong Mo and Wu Yun by the River of Time and Space, where they shared a Chaos Heartless Fish meal.
• Eternal Daoist described Han Yuan defeating a Low-level Dao Venerable while still in the Primordial Unity realm and spotting Eternal’s fleeing figure.
• Eternal Daoist proposed befriending Han Yuan, and Kong Mo and Wu Yun agreed to visit him.
• Han Yuan gave Yongxu Daoist a place to build Yongxu Manor, and Yongxu left when he sensed visitors approaching.
• Han Yuan met Eternal Daoist, Kong Mo, and Wu Yun at the city gate, surprising them by greeting them before they announced themselves.
• Kong Mo observed that Han Yuan’s time and space stood independent of chaotic space.

Eternal Daoist brought Kong Mo and Wu Yun to settle in Taigu City, where Han Yuan welcomed them and received gifts from all three. Han Yuan began fusing the Time Mirror with the Void Mirror, while Eternal Daoist revealed his plan to absorb Yongxu Daoist’s power and Yongxu worried about Eternal winning Han Yuan’s support.

• Eternal Daoist introduced Kong Mo and Wu Yun to Han Yuan, and the three great powers agreed to settle in Taigu City.
• Wu Yun gave Han Yuan a Jade Box, Kong Mo gifted him a Chaos Hollow Willow branch, and Eternal Daoist gave him a Time Mirror.
• Han Yuan used Great Beginning Qi to begin merging the Time Mirror with the Void Mirror, but realized he needed to reach the Luotian Dao Venerable realm to complete the fusion.
• Eternal Daoist privately confirmed that he planned to use the Great Beginning Dao to absorb Yongxu Daoist’s power and reach the Dao Ancestor realm.
• Yongxu Daoist wondered whether Eternal Daoist had won Han Yuan over and worried that he would be outnumbered if Eternal gained Han Yuan’s support.

Han Yuan planted the Chaos Hollow Willow in the Great Su Realm and used the die to multiply its enhancement, expanding the realm and causing two Level Nine Great Worlds to advance into Level Ten Great Luo Realms. He discovered Lincoln and his companions in one newly advanced realm and Mo Wuhui in the other, then examined the Chaos Five-Colored Stone and considered how to use it.

• Han Yuan planted the Chaos Hollow Willow in the Great Su Realm and strengthened it with the Life Creation Great Dao, greatly enlarging the worlds and Jianmu.
• Han Yuan rolled a five on the die, multiplying the willow's Space Luotian Dao aura enhancement and prompting two Level Nine Great Worlds to advance.
• Han Yuan discovered that Lincoln, Beite, Alice, Robert, and their companion had nurtured one advancing world, while Mo Wuhui had nurtured the other.
• Han Yuan looked into the futures of the five and Mo Wuhui, finding no prospect of them becoming Dao Venerables within a hundred evolution epochs.
• Han Yuan opened Wu Yun's Jade Box, identified the Chaos Five-Colored Stone, and considered what to do with it.

Han Yuan discovered that Yongxu Daoist’s sealed gift was a Dao Ancestor Finger Bone, a supreme treasure whose existence could draw powerful pursuers. Sensing danger, Han Yuan hid the bone inside Jianmu and reconsidered his destination, deciding against Demon Heaven and choosing the Zhou Tian Realm.

• Han Yuan sent the Chaos Five-Colored Stone into Jianmu to begin tempering it into Chaos Spirit Treasures.
• Han Yuan opened Yongxu Daoist’s Jade Box, triggering powerful beings in the Dao Shi Realm to probe across Chaos for its contents.
• Han Yuan sealed his memories, strengthened his concealment, and then learned the box held a finger bone of the Heavenly Dao Ancestor.
• Han Yuan concealed the finger bone deep inside Jianmu under countless seals and realized that his instincts warned of approaching danger.
• Han Yuan stopped at a teleportation pillar, rejected traveling to Demon Heaven, and chose the Zhou Tian Realm instead.

Han Yuan traveled through Chaos and briefly encountered a Chaos Flying Boat led by Tao Qian, who questioned him but let him go. After Wu Daozi sensed that a Saint had passed nearby, he ordered the boat to pursue Han Yuan, but it encountered another Chaos Flying Boat along the way.

• Han Yuan left Ancient Dragon Island and relied on a spacetime beacon to navigate Chaos toward the Zhou Tian Realm.
• A Chaos Flying Boat searching for the Dao Ancestor's Relic spotted Han Yuan and approached him.
• Tao Qian questioned Han Yuan, gave him a high-grade Innate Supreme Treasure, and continued the search without detaining him.
• Wu Daozi sensed that a Saint had passed nearby and ordered Tao Qian to turn back and pursue Han Yuan.
• The Chaos Flying Boat searched for Han Yuan through the shifting Chaos, then encountered another Chaos Flying Boat approaching from the side.

Han Yuan returned to the Zhou Tian Realm and hid inside the Innate Star Dou Formation, using his die to strengthen its concealment. Wu Daozi tracked Han Yuan to the area but lost the treasure’s aura, so he sent his people to search the region.

• Wu Daozi met Ji Yunxiao in Chaos, lied that he had found a trace of the Dao Ancestor's Relic, and hurried on to pursue Han Yuan.
• Ji Yunxiao doubted Wu Daozi’s explanation and ordered Pan Tian Dao Court’s people to follow Huntian Dao Court’s flying boat and prepare for battle.
• Han Yuan entered the Zhou Tian Realm, found a principal star’s Innate Star Dou Formation, and hid beside a stellar treasure.
• Han Yuan used his die to increase the formation’s concealment effect sixfold, transforming the other formations across the Zhou Tian Realm as well.
• Tao Qian used the discarded Innate Supreme Treasure to track Han Yuan, but its aura vanished near the Zhou Tian Realm.
• Wu Daozi ordered teams of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals to search the entire region for Han Yuan.

After his two Great Luo Realms advanced, Han Yuan gained the status of a Dao Venerable and discovered the Innate Star Dou Formation was nourishing him as well as a Chaos Spirit Treasure. By exploiting a red die’s multiplier, he became the formation’s primary target, transformed toward a Chaos Demon God, and began his advance toward the Great Beginning Dao Venerable.

• Han Yuan used two dice to multiply the advancement effects of his Great Luo Realms, gaining Dao Venerable status and becoming harder to locate with secret techniques.
• The Innate Star Dou Formation began directing part of its power into Han Yuan, strengthening Jianmu and improving his comprehension of the Great Beginning Zhenjie Dao.
• Han Yuan rolled a red die that multiplied the Chaos Zhou Tian Star Array’s nurturing effect, then sent 364 incarnations to the formations on the other main stars.
• The formations imprinted Han Yuan’s true spirit embryo onto 365 star embryos, making them his companion Spiritual Treasures as the Chaos formation transformed his origin toward that of a Chaos Demon God.
• Han Yuan used Primordial Violet Qi to accelerate his comprehension and the star embryos’ growth, then formally began his advance toward the Great Beginning Dao Venerable.

Huntian Dao Court’s Tao Qian obtained permission to search the Zhou Tian Realm for a fugitive Saint, while Hu Weiyong tried to protect the fox clan’s hidden Chaos Spirit Treasure. Tao Qian left without finding the treasure but suspected Hu Weiyong’s rapid arrival meant the realm concealed something.

• A Huntian scouting squad found the Zhou Tian Realm, but its guardian refused to let them enter without permission.
• After the Monster Heaven Dao Court rejected Tao Qian’s request, Wu Daozi ordered him to investigate the realm by force.
• Hu Chong warned Hu Weiyong that Huntian might uncover the fox clan’s mid-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure, and Hu Weiyong went to the Zhou Tian Realm with two clan Dao Venerables.
• Hu Weiyong charged Tao Qian one million strands of Primordial Violet Qi to search, and Tao Qian entered the realm with the scouting squad.
• Tao Qian left without finding anything, then grew suspicious when he learned that Hu Weiyong had arrived and taken control of the Realm Island shortly after the squad first appeared.

Hu Weiyong confronted Dao Venerables from Demon Heaven, Hunting Heaven, and General Hongyi’s faction over a Chaos Spirit Treasure tied to the Zhou Tian Realm. As the factions waited for the treasure to emerge, Zhou Wuyou arrived as a newly ascended Demon Heaven Dao Venerable, complicating the tense standoff.

• Hu Weiyong traced the Zhou Tian Realm’s past and discovered that Saint Lincoln’s squad and another squad had found the Chaos Spirit Treasure.
• General Hongyi appeared and claimed the treasure had been arranged by Great Emperor Xingtian, while Hu Weiyong argued that the formation damaged Demon Heaven territory.
• A woman from Hunting Heaven, number 3520, produced a sale record showing that a Demon Heaven member had sold the treasure’s intelligence to her organization.
• Tao Qian returned in concealment and watched the three factions’ Dao Venerables gather outside the Zhou Tian Realm.
• Zhou Wuyou arrived through Demon Heaven’s teleportation pillar, revealed himself as a newly ascended Dao Venerable, and told Hu Weiyong he had returned to visit relatives.
• Hu Weiyong warned Zhou Wuyou to take his family and friends away from the Zhou Tian Realm before they were caught in the coming conflict.

Ji Yunxia followed Tao Qian to the Zhou Tian Realm, where several Dao Venerables had gathered around Zhou Wuyou. After discovering that the realm’s star array was consuming Chaos Qi, Zhou Wuyou helped the Heavenly Dao turn the array into a source of strength, leaving the realm rapidly growing more powerful.

• Ji Yunxia followed Tao Qian and discovered four unfamiliar Dao Venerables near the Zhou Tian Realm.
• Zhou Wuyou entered the realm, reunited with his relatives and friends, and delayed leaving because his true spirit remained fused with the Heavenly Dao.
• Zhou Wuyou realized that the three hundred and sixty-five primary stars were absorbing Chaos Qi through a vast array, while the Heavenly Dao was hindering it.
• Zhou Wuyou guided the Heavenly Dao to open spatial passages that sent Chaos Qi directly to the primary stars.
• The Chaos Zhou Tian Star Array absorbed the Chaos Qi, strengthening the Zhou Tian Realm, reversing the Heavenly Dao’s decline, and making it easier for Han Yuan to comprehend the Great Dao.

Zhou Wuyou revealed the Chaos Zhou Tian Star Array, which was nurturing a Chaos Demon God alongside a Chaos Spirit Treasure. The discovery drew forces from across the chaos, and Zhou Wuyou and Hu Weiyong attacked Number 3520 while reinforcements were still on their way.

• Zhou Wuyou used the Heavenly Dao to reveal all three hundred and sixty-five formations and accelerate the Chaos grand array's growth.
• The Dao Venerables saw a man holding a star within each formation, and Zhou Wuyou realized the array was nurturing a Chaos Demon God.
• Hu Weiyong and the other Dao Venerables reported the discovery to their factions, prompting reinforcements to race toward the Zhou Tian Realm.
• Hu Weiyong persuaded Zhou Wuyou to join forces with him and his hidden Dao Venerable clansmen against the other factions.
• Zhou Wuyou merged with the Zhou Tian Realm and struck Number 3520 with a Sword of the Heavenly Dao.

3520 and General Hongyi were driven from the Zhou Tian Realm, but Tao Qian and Ji Yunxia’s attack on Demon Heaven’s transmission pillar brought powerful reinforcements into the conflict. With a Chaos Demon God nearing birth, the arrivals faced off over the territory as more forces converged.

• Zhou Wuyou struck 3520, and Ji Yunxia ambushed and grievously wounded her as she fled into the chaos.
• Tao Qian ambushed General Hongyi after Hu Weiyong and two hidden Dao Venerables drove him back, then turned on the foxes.

• Dong Huangxie identified the Chaos Demon God nearing birth as a prize of immense value and ordered Ji Yunxiao and Wu Daozi to leave Demon Heaven’s territory.
• Ji Yunxiao challenged Dong Huangxie, and Wu Daozi warned that Demon Heaven and Hunting Heaven forces were on their way, threatening to outnumber them four to one.
