• Mo Chen and Shi Kui left their cave and crossed paths with Xu Yang, whom the Poison Saliva Toad was stalking near Black Marsh.
• The Poison Saliva Toad ambushed Xu Yang with a miasma explosion and soul-devouring poison needles, but his four defensive Dull Mountain phantoms stopped both attacks.

• The wounded Poison Saliva Toad tried to flee into Black Marsh, but Shi Kui struck its tail while Mo Chen froze the swamp and hindered its escape.
• Xu Yang struck the trapped toad's head with the four attacking mountain phantoms, smashing it apart.

Bai Yu killed a late-stage Poison Saliva Toad with help from Mo Chen and Shi Kui, then accepted their invitation to visit the Fenyen Tribe. As they traveled, he described witnessing a Chaos Master devour the Chaos Sea, leaving his new companions awestruck.

• Bai Yu killed the Poison Saliva Toad after Mo Chen and Shi Kui helped stop it from escaping.

• Bai Yu described a Chaos Master swallowing the sea and its countless inhabitants, shocking Mo Chen and Shi Kui.

Xu Yang studied the Fenyen Tribe’s blend of natural artifacts and Technical Flow before arriving at Fenyen City, built around an entrance to the Chaos Ruins. He discovered that the tribe guarded the city with two legion-type Mechanical Flow supreme treasures.

• Xu Yang examined the Bone Boat, Mo Chen’s sword, and Shi Kui’s axe, and inferred that the Fenyen Tribe combined natural artifacts with foreign secret patterns.
• Mo Chen guided the Bone Boat along secret routes that avoided dangerous beasts and hazardous regions.
• After five days, Xu Yang and his companions reached Fenyen City, whose mountain summit concealed a Chaos Ruins entrance.
• Xu Yang recognized that the tribe’s control of the Chaos Ruins gave it access to powerful cultivation resources and praised its strength.
• Mo Chen pointed out the Pre-Ruins Plain, where Xu Yang saw the clan-defending Mechanical Flow supreme treasures 'Molten Rock Boulder' and 'Crimson Flame Patrols the Sky.'

Xu Yang entered Fenyen City with Mo Chen and Shi Kui, saw the tribe’s strength and the Chaos Ruins it guarded, and was invited to stay as an elder. He agreed to consider the offer after meeting the elders, and the group arrived at Flame Heart Hall beside the Ruins’ core entrance.

• Xu Yang’s remark about returning to fertile lands reminded Mo Chen and Shi Kui of their tribe’s displacement and the struggle to preserve its ancestral territory.
• Mo Chen and Shi Kui escorted Xu Yang through the Ember Bone Gate and into the orderly Fenyen City.
• Shi Kui and Mo Chen invited Xu Yang to join the Fenyen Tribe as an elder, offering access to its resources and Chaos Ruins.
• Xu Yang thanked them and asked for a few days to consider the offer after meeting the elders and learning more about the tribe.
• Mo Chen led Xu Yang and Shi Kui to Flame Heart Hall, where Xu Yang saw the violent core outlet of the Chaos Ruins.

Xu Yang entered Flame Heart Hall and met the Fenyen Tribe’s elders, who welcomed him while Mo Chen and Shi Kui were sent to deliver materials to the chieftain. They were stopped at the chieftain’s sealed residence by Black Fiend Elder, who said the chieftain was in critical closed-door cultivation and would not see them, leaving Mo Chen uneasy.

• Xu Yang was overwhelmed by the concentrated Chaos Energy inside Flame Heart Hall and recognized it as an exceptional place for cultivation.
• Mo Chen and Shi Kui introduced Xu Yang to Grand Elder Zhu Yin and the twelve other elders, and Zhu Yin offered Xu Yang a seat.
• Zhu Yin ordered Mo Chen and Shi Kui to deliver the Crimson Scale Earth Dragon materials to the chieftain at Cave Residence Number One.
• Black Fiend Elder stopped Mo Chen and Shi Kui outside the sealed stone door, saying the chieftain was in a critical stage of closed-door cultivation and would not receive them.
• Mo Chen and Shi Kui left the materials outside the door and departed, while Mo Chen privately wondered why the chieftain had not received them as usual.

The Black Fiend Elder revealed that he was the Hu Nation Chaos Master controlling a shell and had been transforming Fen Yan into a Chaos Demon Body. In Flame Heart Hall, Xu Yang declined a core elder position, and Zhu Yin offered him the position of Guest Elder instead.

• After Mo Chen and Shi Kui left, the Black Fiend Elder entered a sealed passage and reached a cavern where Fen Yan was trapped in a grotesque, agonized form.
• The Black Fiend Elder told Fen Yan that his transformation was nearly complete and that he would need to devour one hundred and eight Eternal True Gods to reach the Chaos Master realm.
• The Black Fiend Elder proposed luring Eternal True Gods into the Chaos Source Chamber and sacrificing them with the Myriad Souls Sacrificial Demon Array.
• Fen Yan's resistance collapsed, and he silently accepted the plan as the Black Fiend Elder celebrated the scheme's progress.
• In Flame Heart Hall, Xu Yang politely declined Zhu Yin's offer of a core elder position, citing his independent nature and unfamiliarity with the tribe.
• Zhu Yin offered Xu Yang the position of Guest Elder, and Xu Yang asked what it was.

Xu Yang accepted the Fenyen Tribe’s offer to become a guest minister and settled into a residence with access to a powerful Chaos Meditation Chamber. He began cultivating there, and the Radiant Golden Body on his system panel started to shine.

• Grand Elder Zhu Yin offered Xu Yang guest minister status with generous freedoms, cultivation access, resources, and records, and Xu Yang accepted while promising to help when it did not violate his principles.
• Grand Elder Zhu Yin assigned Elder San Wen to show Xu Yang the cultivation chambers, provide his Guest Minister Token, and arrange an upper-grade residence.
• Elder San Wen led Xu Yang to Crimson Glaze Peak, where he received a cave abode and learned that its teleportation totem connected to the Flame Heart Hall’s Chaos Meditation Chamber.
• Xu Yang used his Guest Minister Token to enter the chamber, sensed its dense and violent Chaos Source, and decided to cultivate there before consulting the Ancient Fire Pavilion’s records.
• Xu Yang began drawing in the chamber’s energy, and the Radiant Golden Body on his system panel began to shine brilliantly.

Xu Yang chose a system-protected descent into the Chaos Demon Abyss to obtain the complete Radiant Golden Body and strengthen his dangerously fragile divine body. His clone reached the abyss and traveled through its upper and middle layers, where it encountered the Demon Mosquito Clan and the Life and Death Mosquito Emperor.

• Xu Yang weighed the four Inheritance Ground destinations and realized that his divine body’s weakness left him vulnerable despite his powerful will and supreme treasures.
• Xu Yang decided that body refinement was his most urgent need and selected the Chaos Demon Abyss for its complete Radiant Golden Body inheritance.
• Xu Yang sent his third clone through the system-protected passage into the Chaos Demon Abyss.
• Xu Yang’s clone crossed the lifeless upper layer, passed through the corrosive chaos miasma of the middle layer, and saw the Demon Mosquito Clan’s vast swarm.
• The Life and Death Mosquito Emperor appeared before Xu Yang’s clone as the king of the Demon Mosquito Clan.

Xu Yang used the system to extract the Radiant Golden Body from a Chaos Master corpse, transforming all three of his incarnations into Chaos Master-level bodies. The corpse collapsed after the extraction, and an even more terrifying aura rose from the depths of the Chaos Demon Abyss.

• Xu Yang secretly touched the Chaos Master corpse and activated the system’s Time Reversal function to extract the Radiant Golden Body.
• The corpse trembled as Dark Gold power poured into Xu Yang and simultaneously transformed his incarnations in the Fenyen Tribe and the Yongzan Tribe.
• Xu Yang concealed the transformation’s aura while his divine body absorbed Chaos Energy and gained Chaos Master-level strength.
• The Chaos Master corpse collapsed into dust, destroying the Demon Mosquito nests as the Life and Death Mosquito Emperor watched in horror.
• A far greater tremor shook the Chaos Demon Abyss, and a vast, evil aura surged upward from its lower levels.

Xu Yang escaped the awakening of a terrifying being suspected to be a God King in the Chaos Demon Abyss, then returned to the Fenyen Tribe and assessed the Chaos Master-level strength his divine body had gained. He began preparing for seclusion while his Yongzan Tribe avatar reconsidered its plans for Guji.

• A colossal head emerged from the Chaos Demon Abyss, suppressing the Demon Mosquito Clan and forcing Xu Yang to flee through a spatial fissure before its gaze struck the place he had vanished from.
• Xu Yang returned to the Fenyen Tribe’s meditation chamber, shaken by the encounter and grateful that the system had protected him.
• Xu Yang tested his transformed divine body and found that its strength had risen to the level of a Chaos Treasure, enough to withstand ordinary Chaos Master attacks without divine-power defense.
• Xu Yang decided to conceal his true strength, cultivate in seclusion at the Fenyen Tribe, and focus on comprehending Chaos Law rather than visiting the Qingtai Mountain ruins.
• Xu Yang’s Yongzan Tribe avatar revised its plans, considering taking Guji to see cultivators from the great nations so the World Beast could grow stronger.

Xu Yang completed the growth of his divine body and guided Yu Ji and Cang Ya as they advanced their secret pattern cultivation, while explaining why Cang Ya’s lack of a Nether Sea Clone made experimentation difficult. Zuo Shan Ke arrived at Xu Yang’s Miniature Universe, and their reunion left him astonished by Xu Yang’s newfound confidence.

• Xu Yang’s divine body grew to eighteen billion kilometers after more than three million days of cultivation.
• Xu Yang guided Yu Ji through refining her Sky-Rending Diagram and praised Cang Ya’s Myriad Streams Return to Source Diagram, while warning that Cang Ya lacked the body and creation talent for extensive experimentation.
• Cang Ya regretted not choosing a body-seizing secret technique in the past, then resolved to overcome the limitation through perseverance and continued practice.
• Xu Yang sensed Zuo Shan Ke’s arrival, ended the lesson, and gave Yu Ji and Cang Ya new exercises to pursue.
• Zuo Shan Ke entered Xu Yang’s Miniature Universe and met his avatar, noticing that Xu Yang now appeared calm and completely confident.

Zuo Shan Ke allied with Xu Yang against the Three Evils of the Food Country and entrusted him with protecting Cang Ya while he sought the Lie Yuan Art. He left Xu Yang a token and directions to a hidden fortune worth 5 billion Universe Sand, and Xu Yang set out with Guji to retrieve it while helping Guji advance.

• Zuo Shan Ke asked Xu Yang to join forces with him against Tian Kun, Formless, and Dao Mo, and Xu Yang accepted in exchange for the promised resources.
• Zuo Shan Ke entrusted Cang Ya’s safety and his search for the Lie Yuan Art to Xu Yang, then gave him a sensing token and a Memory Stone containing information about his resources.
• After departing, Zuo Shan Ke broke through to Void True God and headed to the Qingfeng Realm to undergo reincarnation.
• Xu Yang learned that a steward named Yan Bo in Fulóng Country held artifact-refining materials worth about 5 billion Universe Sand, and he decided to retrieve them discreetly.
• Xu Yang left the Yongzan Tribe with Guji and traveled toward Dragon Ridge City, feeding Guji powerful exotic beasts along the way to help it break through to Eternal True God.

Xu Yang killed an Azure Rock Thunder Elephant, allowing Guji to break through to the Eternal True God realm, then encountered Jiu Wuye fleeing the Black Feather Tribe after avenging his murdered family. As the Mechanical Phoenix Bird attacked Jiu Wuye, an enormous white jade palm emerged from the swamp and struck toward it.

• Xu Yang killed the peak Eternal True God Azure Rock Thunder Elephant with one punch and let Guji devour it.
• Guji broke through to the Eternal True God realm, and Xu Yang ordered him to strengthen his inner world instead of nurturing destruction warriors.
• Xu Yang encountered the wounded Jiu Wuye fleeing three Eternal True Gods of the Black Feather Tribe on a Mechanical Phoenix Bird.
• Jiu Wuye revealed that his true name was Zhe Wuye and that he had spent a million eras plotting revenge for the Black Feather Tribe's slaughter of his family.
• The Mechanical Phoenix Bird launched a deadly attack at Jiu Wuye, but an enormous white jade palm burst from the swamp and targeted the bird.

Xu Yang rescued Jiu Wuye from the Black Feather Tribe and forced him to choose between becoming a servant and death. Jiu Wuye submitted, and as their journey continued, he revealed his craft and the true properties of his poisoned wine.

• Xu Yang destroyed the Mechanical Phoenix Bird and its passengers with a giant palm, then confronted the badly wounded Jiu Wuye.
• Xu Yang offered Jiu Wuye a Soul Imprint or death, and Jiu Wuye chose to live and became his follower.
• As they flew toward the borderlands, Jiu Wuye told Xu Yang about the Black Feather Tribe, its leader Hei Yulie, and his long pursuit of revenge.
• Jiu Wuye presented Xu Yang with Star Dust Truffle Crisps and Aurora Jade Nectar, which Xu Yang tasted and praised.
• Jiu Wuye explained how Firefly Drunkenness, Star Dome Jade Liquid, and Soul Devouring Dove had formed his poison, and described the wine's Dao-enlightening effects without the trigger.
• Xu Yang asked Jiu Wuye to bring him some of the wine to taste.

Xu Yang drank Jiu Wuye’s Star Dome Jade Liquid mixed with Soul Devouring Dove and gained a breakthrough in his understanding of Chaos Law. After reaching Kunxi City, the group received Exit Talismans, and Vice Commander Mo Yan arrived to explain the rules governing their departure from the East Pole Domain.

• Xu Yang drank the wine, halted his defensive will, and experienced its disorienting effects while Guji threatened Jiu Wuye.
• Xu Yang suppressed Guji, meditated, and gained insights into Chaos Law before praising the wine and ordering Jiu Wuye to keep its recipe secret.
• Jiu Wuye explained that only enough rare ingredients remained for about three more cups, and Xu Yang told him to prepare a detailed list of ingredients and substitutes.
• Xu Yang, Guji, and Jiu Wuye waited in Kunxi City for half a month while observing its strict border security and wary atmosphere toward outsiders.
• Vice Commander Mo Yan delivered the trio’s Exit Talismans and began warning them about Kunxi City’s rules and the East Pole Domain’s laws.

Xu Yang, Jiu Wuye, and Guji left the East Pole Domain after Mo Yan warned them not to betray it, then traveled to West Gathering City in Duanmu Country. They learned about the country’s precarious position beside the East Pole Domain and headed for the local Yanfeng Guild Hall to obtain a map and resources.

• Mo Yan warned Xu Yang, Jiu Wuye, and Guji that betraying the East Pole Domain would bring punishment from the Purifying Dust Envoys, and Xu Yang promised they would not harm their homeland.
• Xu Yang and his companions left Kunxi City, crossed the East Pole Domain’s boundary, and set out to find a large city where they could buy a detailed map of the Origin Continent.
• After several months of travel through the Chaos Current, Xu Yang’s group arrived at West Gathering City and entered without obstruction.
• Jiu Wuye learned that West Gathering City belonged to Duanmu Country, ruled by the ancient but weak Duanmu God King, whose territory lay beside the East Pole Domain.
• Xu Yang decided to visit the Yanfeng Guild Hall branch, and the three arrived at its grand complex.

Xu Yang bought a detailed map, supplies, and an Eternal-grade flying boat at the Yanfeng Guild Hall, then used intelligence to identify his target in Dragon Ridge City. As Xu Yang prepared to depart, a Void True God’s newborn son showed signs of remembering his reincarnation.

• Xu Yang sold the Tiangong Furnace, bought brewing materials and the Night Aurora Boat, and joined the Dark Hall with Guji under the code names Chi Ru and Taotie.
• Xu Yang learned that Yanlong Mansion in Dragon Ridge City was his target and that Yan Bo served as its steward.
• Xu Yang settled in at the Cloud Sea Inn and planned to rest for three days before traveling to Dragon Ridge City.
• Rou Qian gave birth to a son in a northern city, and the infant recognized that he had reincarnated in a city.

Zuo Shan Ke was reborn as Zuo Shanjin and planned to use his new life and the resources of Duan Yu Tower to restore his strength and pursue revenge. Meanwhile, Xu Yang traveled toward Fulóng Country, defeating raiders and gathering rare materials along the way.

• Zuo Shan Ke, reborn as Zuo Shanjin, resolved to cultivate with his excellent talent and secretly use his parents' position in Duan Yu Tower to aid his growth.
• Xu Yang set the Night Aurora Boat toward Dragon Ridge City in Fulóng Country, crossing the Thousand Miasma Star Forest with Guji and Jiu Wuye.
• The One-Eyed Big Guy and two peak Eternal True Gods attacked the boat, but Xu Yang killed them with a giant white jade hand.
• Guji collected the three attackers' corpses, and Xu Yang found valuable Void Sinking Gold among their spoils.
• In the Baize Great Wilderness, Xu Yang detected a Corrupt Heart Poison Lotus, and Guji retrieved it for Jiu Wuye to keep.

Xu Yang and his companions arrived in Dragon Ridge City seeking Zuo Shan Ke’s five-billion-Universe-Sand contingency in Yanlong Mansion. After Yanlong Mansion’s Yan Bo led an armed party to confront an outsider at Drunken Immortal Residence, Xu Yang arrived nearby as the clash between the Dragon Eye Shuttle and a sword-wielding Eternal True God escalated.

• Xu Yang, Guji, and their companion reached Dragon Ridge City and set out to find Yanlong Mansion.
• Yan Qi asked Yan Bo to avenge him, claiming an outsider had stolen Fairy Qingyue and slapped him at Drunken Immortal Residence.
• Yan Bo summoned the Dragon Eye Shuttle and brought two guest elders and Yan Qi to confront the outsider.
• Xu Yang and his companions landed in the city as a powerful fight between Eternal True Gods triggered Dragon Ridge City’s defensive barriers.
• City Guards surrounded the battle site, but Yan Bo declared that Yanlong Mansion was conducting its business and ordered onlookers to stand aside.

Yanlong Mansion defeated and captured the Green-robed Eternal True God, while Xu Yang decided to visit Yan Bo. When Yan Bo received a calling card from Xu Yang bearing a forbidden mark, he recognized it and nearly cried out, “Jin.”

• The Green-robed Eternal True God’s final attack failed against the Dragon Eye Shuttle, and Yanlong Mansion’s retainers left him near death.
• The City Guard broke the barrier, captured the Green-robed Eternal True God, and accepted Yan Bo’s account of the fight.
• Xu Yang watched the battle and told Jiu Wuye to prepare a calling card for a visit to Yan Bo.
• Yan Bo returned to his courtyard, where a servant brought him a calling card from an Eternal True God named Gu You.
• Yan Bo saw the tiny rune on the card, recognized it, and trembled as the name “Jin” nearly escaped his lips.
