Chapter Summaries

Jiemie led the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot through the Place of Inheritance’s restriction with the Dao Rhyme, while Pangu and the Eternal Dao Realm experts were barred from entering. As the outsiders went into the palace, the Will of the Chaos Sea revealed that Unity Realm cultivators could leave, restoring the Eternal Dao Realm’s hope.

• Jiemie used the dark gold Dao Rhyme to guide the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot to an ancient palace, with Pangu and the Eternal Dao Realm experts following behind.
• Jiemie and the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot passed through the palace’s restriction, but Pangu, Taiyi, Taichu, Zhou Ming, and the others failed to break through it.
• Blood Butcher, Bone-Eroding, and Ming Luo mocked the blocked Eternal Dao Realm experts as Jiemie led his people into the palace and the doors closed.
• Pangu and the others despaired over being unable to leave the Chaos Sea until the Will of the Chaos Sea announced that Unity Realm cultivators could freely leave after the outsiders departed.
• Pangu identified the voice as the Will of the Chaos Sea, and the Eternal Dao Realm experts rejoiced at the prospect of escaping once they reached the Unity Realm.

Pangu, Zhou Ming, and Wu were suddenly taken from the Source Realm of Myriad Daos by an ancient, human-sounding voice. They awoke in an empty hall before a mysterious statue, while their companions could not determine why Zhou Ming had been chosen.

• Pangu urged the cultivators to seek out laws suited to their cultivation and reach the Unity Realm so they could leave the Chaos Sea.
• Wu realized the Source Realm’s laws offered him no help because he cultivated the Martial Path, and he joked that he might one day refine the Chaos Sea into his Inner World.
• An ancient voice said, “Fine ambition,” and an irresistible force vanished Pangu, Zhou Ming, and Wu from the others’ sight.
• Taiyi, Cangxuan, and Taichu speculated that a True Saint’s lingering will had taken the three, though they could not explain why Zhou Ming was included.
• Pangu, Zhou Ming, and Wu arrived in an empty stone hall and saw a towering statue whose face they could not remember clearly.

Zhou Ming, Pangu, and Wu met Yuan Chu, who revealed himself as the Will of the Chaos Sea and explained that the Chaos Sea was his Inner World. He began clarifying the outside world's cultivation realms and the nature of Great Dao Jiemie, leaving their questions about his condition and the outsiders' presence unanswered.

• A phantom emerged from the stone statue and introduced himself as Yuan Chu, the Will of the Chaos Sea.
• Yuan Chu revealed that the Chaos Sea had originally been his Inner World and said he had suffered Dao Extinction rather than fallen.
• Zhou Ming and Pangu questioned why Yuan Chu had not revived and why he had allowed the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot into his Inner World, while Zhou Ming asked about the Great Luo True Realm.
• Yuan Chu explained that the outside world called realms from Sainthood to Hunyuan Infinite False Saints, the Great Dao Realm and Unity Realm Great Luo True Realm, and placed True Saint and Transcendence above them.
• Yuan Chu explained that Great Dao Jiemie was the scattering and slumber of a Great Luo True Realm cultivator's origin, not death, and that an opportunity could allow them to prove the Dao anew.

Yuan Chu explained why he could not revive after failing to reach the Transcendence Realm and recounted how the Primordial Wilderness Epoch began and ended. He revealed that he had modeled Pangu’s world-making to seek a path to transcendence, but the chapter ended with his question about what drove the outside world’s True Saints to destroy the Primordial Wilderness.

• Yuan Chu explained that reviving after his failed breakthrough would leave him locked in the attempt and cause him to suffer the fall of the Dao again.
• Wu said that no one in the outside world had reached the Transcendence Realm since the Primordial Wilderness Epoch except one person, who had vanished after succeeding.
• Yuan Chu described how Pan founded the Primordial Wilderness World by opening a world that other experts’ worlds later joined, and how it collapsed after Pan transcended.
• Yuan Chu told Pangu that he had given him that name and guided him to create worlds as an experiment, hoping to discover a way to transcend, but had learned nothing useful.
• Yuan Chu revealed that the outside world’s True Saints shattered the Primordial Wilderness in a war after Pan vanished, then asked what they might have fought over.

Yuan Chu explained that Pan’s mysterious legacy drove the True Saints to shatter the Primordial Wilderness, but none found it, and nine True Saints later fell attempting to transcend at Daofall Land. He recounted the chaotic eras that followed and revealed that he was born at the end of the Chaotic Epoch.

• Yuan Chu confirmed that Pan had left something in the Primordial Wilderness that the True Saints believed could help them reach the Transcendent Realm.
• After finding nothing in the shattered Primordial Wilderness, the True Saints searched the place where Pan had transcended, but found no clues there either.
• Nine True Saints stayed at the site to cultivate and attempt breakthroughs, and all nine fell to the Dao; the place became known as Daofall Land.
• Yuan Chu revealed that he had also failed to break through at Daofall Land and fallen to the Dao before his current existence.
• Yuan Chu explained that the Primordial World’s shattering began the Chaotic Epoch, and that he was born near its end before describing the later epochs.

Yuan Chu explained that True Saints shared the insights of those who had failed to reach the Transcendence Realm so that a future breakthrough could show them the way to revive and try again. Zhou Ming then asked how he had entered Yuan Chu’s Inner World from the outside world, and the chapter ended before Yuan Chu answered.

• Yuan Chu told Zhou Ming, Wu, and Pangu that he had perished in the Dao during the Near Ancient era and knew little about the current outside world.
• Yuan Chu explained that the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot cultivators were gathering his insights on behalf of outside True Saints seeking a path to the Transcendence Realm.
• Yuan Chu revealed that forty-nine True Saints, including himself, had failed to break through, and that sharing their accumulated insights could help a future True Saint succeed and give them a chance to revive.
• Yuan Chu said the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot cultivators had to earn the insights through danger and sacrifice, proving their sincerity and worth to the True Saints behind them.
• Zhou Ming reasoned that his home planet lay in the outside world and asked Yuan Chu how he, an ordinary mortal accompanied by a system, had entered Yuan Chu’s Inner World.

Yuan Chu revealed that he brought Zhou Ming from Earth, a surviving fragment of the primordial world, to serve as an outsider Variable in his search for a path beyond the Transcendence Realm. The chapter ended with Zhou Ming asking why Yuan Chu had chosen him from among Earth's billions of people.

• Zhou Ming asked Yuan Chu why he had brought him into the Inner World, and Yuan Chu admitted that he had selected him as an outsider Variable.
• Yuan Chu explained that Earth was a tiny surviving fragment of the primordial world whose descendants had escaped the chaos outside.
• Yuan Chu revealed that he had chosen Zhou Ming from that fragment and given him a modified system as a small advantage.
• Zhou Ming recognized that Earth's myths reflected its primordial origins and asked why its account of Pangu differed from the history Yuan Chu described.
• Yuan Chu explained that Pan's name had become Pangu over generations and that later events had caused Earth's legends to diverge from history.
• Zhou Ming asked Yuan Chu why he had selected him specifically from Earth's billions of people.

Yuan Chu revealed that Zhou Ming had been brought to the Chaos Sea by chance and explained that he had secretly guided Wu toward the Martial Path without teaching him, so Wu could forge a path of his own. Yuan Chu offered Wu the Chaos Sea to devour, leaving Wu with the resolve and resources to continue his difficult cultivation.

• Yuan Chu told Zhou Ming that a modified system had randomly brought him to the Chaos Sea.
• Yuan Chu explained that he had only guided Wu toward the Martial Path, leaving him to develop it independently because Yuan Chu’s own path had failed to reach Transcendence.
• Wu thanked Yuan Chu and vowed to keep walking the difficult Martial Path on his own.
• Yuan Chu offered Wu his former Inner World, the Chaos Sea, for Wu to devour and merge into his own Inner World.
• Wu accepted the gift, and Yuan Chu said he hoped Wu would forge a new Martial Path that could also help him.
• Zhou Ming, Pangu, and Wu said they had no further questions after Yuan Chu had answered their doubts.

Yuan Chu sent Zhou Ming, Pangu, and Wu into the Dao Palace trials, offering them a chance to gain power and asking them to remember his investment if they reached transcendence. He watched their trials begin and judged that the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot’s Unity Realm cultivators would pass and carry his insights back to their Daoist Friends.

• Yuan Chu told Wu he had to remain until everyone else left, after which Yuan Chu would seal the Chaos Sea inside Wu as a seed for him to refine later.
• Yuan Chu refused Zhou Ming’s request to return to the Source Realm of Myriad Daos and instead promised that passing the Dao Palace trial would bring him to the Unity Realm.
• Yuan Chu explained that he was investing in the three and asked them to repay his help if they reached transcendence, or contribute their experiences to those who came after if they failed.
• Pangu, Zhou Ming, and Wu vowed to keep pursuing higher realms, and Yuan Chu sent them into separate Dao Palace trials.
• Yuan Chu observed that Blood Butcher, Jueying, and the others were trapped, while Jiemie, Kongxuan, Wuwang, and Xu Yuan struggled forward; he expected the four Unity Realm cultivators to pass and carry his insights back.

Jiemie and the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot obtained Yuan Chu’s True Saint Dao Fruit from the inheritance palace and were expelled from the Chaos Sea. They delivered it to six True Saints gathered outside Yuan Chu’s land of nothingness in Daofall Land.

• Jiemie, Kongxuan, Wuwang, and Xu Yuan survived the palace trial and found the True Saint’s Dao Fruit.
• Yuan Chu gave Jiemie the Dao Fruit and expelled the Abyssal Sea Divine Pivot from the Chaos Sea.
• The group emerged at Daofall Land, where six True Saints were waiting outside Yuan Chu’s land of nothingness.
• A True Saint transferred Jiemie and the others before the six, and they knelt to pay their respects.
• Jiemie presented Yuan Chu’s Dao Fruit to the True Saints, and the central True Saint approved.

Jiemie and the others received cultivation insights from the six True Saints as payment for completing their mission, then left Daofall Land to enter seclusion. Afterward, more than a hundred living beings emerged from Yuan Chu True Saint’s Inner World, and the True Saints noticed Pangu and Zhou Ming’s strength-based cultivation.

• The central True Saint gave Jiemie, Kongxuan, Blood Butcher, and the others fragments of the True Saints’ cultivation insights as their promised reward.
• The central True Saint declared their Karma settled and sent Jiemie and the others out of Daofall Land.
• Jiemie and the others parted outside Daofall Land and hurried back to their worlds to comprehend the insights in seclusion.
• The six True Saints prepared to study the gray True Saint Dao Fruit and seek a path to transcendence through Yuan Chu Daoist Friend’s failure.
• More than a hundred beings emerged from the place where Yuan Chu True Saint had fallen, and the True Saints singled out Pangu and Zhou Ming as two promising cultivators of the Great Dao of Strength.

After leaving Yuan Chu’s Inner World, Zhou Ming discovered that the Hongmeng Universe’s rules suppressed his strength until his Laws integrated with its own. He hid in an asteroid belt to cultivate, while Pangu, Taiyi, and the others also sought places to adapt.

• Six True Saints dismissed the newly emerged cultivators and departed Daofall Land with Yuan Chu’s Dao Fruit.
• Zhou Ming tested his strength in the chaotic void and found that his Laws could wield only Pseudo-Saint-level power.
• Zhou Ming recalled Yuan Chu’s warning that his Laws needed to shed the Inner World’s imprint and integrate with the Hongmeng Universe.
• Zhou Ming decided to avoid other Great Luo True Realm cultivators and search for a concealed place to recover his strength.
• Zhou Ming found a hollow asteroid, set up concealing formations, and began cultivating the integration of his Laws.
• Pangu, Taiyi, and the others scattered to find places to settle and adapt to the Hongmeng Universe’s rules.

Zhou Ming’s seclusion was interrupted when a battle destroyed his hiding place, drawing him into a confrontation with Black Xuan’s group. After Zhou Ming effortlessly killed the pursuers, Qing Yang and Purple Moon thanked him, leaving them in awe of his strength.

• Zhou Ming sensed Qing Yang and Purple Moon fleeing from Black Xuan and four subordinates, but chose not to intervene.

• Qing Yang and Purple Moon bowed to Zhou Ming and thanked him for saving their lives.
• Zhou Ming told the siblings to rise and said their attackers had simply courted death.

Zhou Ming learned that Purple Moon and Qing Yang’s world could provide him with fortune and resources, and Purple Moon invited him there. She revealed that she wanted his protection because more than a dozen Saints in their world were plotting against her and Qing Yang, who were valuable resources themselves.

• Purple Moon deduced that Zhou Ming was a wanderer whose world had collapsed or could no longer support his cultivation, and Zhou Ming agreed.

• Purple Moon revealed that Saints in the Primordial Universe were treated as resources for their origins, bodies, and Laws.

Zhou Ming agreed to become the World Master of the Luofu Realm so he could cultivate in seclusion, while promising Qing Yang and Purple Moon help if they faced trouble. As the siblings guided him there, they warned that Azure Cloud and Nether Blood had likely arranged an ambush against them to seize the Azure Moon Pavilion’s fortune.

• After considering the risks and benefits, Zhou Ming agreed to go to the Luofu Realm and become its World Master.
• Qing Yang and Purple Moon led Zhou Ming through the chaotic void and explained that nine Saints controlled the Luofu Realm’s factions and fortune.

Zhou Ming learned that the Primordial Universe’s worlds were remnants of failed attempts to attain the Great Luo True Realm, whose Dao Tribulations were driven by predatory False Saints. After learning that the Flowing Light Domain had no Great Luo True Realm experts, he set off with Qing Yang and Purple Moon for the Luofu Realm.

• Zhou Ming asked Qing Yang and Purple Moon how the Primordial Universe’s worlds were formed, and Qing Yang explained that Great Luo True Realm experts had opened them.
• Purple Moon clarified that the world-makers had died while proving the Dao, often after False Saints attacked to seize their Great Dao Origins and newly opened worlds.
• Zhou Ming realized that the Primordial Universe’s Dao Tribulation was the threat posed by other living beings and asked how many Great Luo True Realm experts existed.
• Qing Yang said that Great Luo True Realm experts were extremely rare and that none were known to exist in the Flowing Light Domain.
• Reassured that no Great Luo True Realm expert threatened him there, Zhou Ming told Qing Yang and Purple Moon to lead him to the Luofu Realm.

Zhou Ming entered Luofu Realm with Qing Yang and Purple Moon, seeking a quiet place to cultivate. Azure Cloud and Nether Blood confronted them over bringing an outsider into the realm, and Zhou Ming prepared to establish his authority.

• Purple Moon and Qing Yang explained that Luofu Realm lacked the resources to support its nine Saints and that their rivals had ambushed them in Chaos.

• Nether Blood and the remaining Five Saints accepted Zhou Ming’s authority and returned to their Dao Fields, knowing the realm’s distribution of providence would change.

Zhou Ming settled into seclusion at Azure Moon Pavilion while Qing Yang and Purple Moon summoned the Luofu Realm’s Saints to demand most of their providence for him. Their demand sparked protests, and Purple Moon accused Nether Blood of betraying her and Qing Yang by leaking their whereabouts to Black Xuan.

• Purple Moon and Qing Yang brought Zhou Ming to Azure Moon Pavilion’s forbidden back mountain, where he began cultivating in seclusion.
• Qing Yang and Purple Moon decided to gather the Luofu Realm’s providence and summoned the Saints after three days of uneasy silence.

• Spirit Void, Iron Mountain, Flying Feather, Mystic Light, and Nether Blood protested Purple Moon’s demands.
• Purple Moon accused Nether Blood and Azure Cloud of leaking her and Qing Yang’s whereabouts to Black Xuan, prompting the other Saints to distance themselves from Nether Blood.

• Nether Blood denied responsibility for Azure Cloud’s death, but Qing Yang held him accountable while Purple Moon demanded that the others surrender seventy percent of their fortune.
• Spirit Void, Phoenix Maiden, Iron Mountain, Flying Feather, and Mystic Light tried to negotiate, but agreed to pay seventy percent when Purple Moon threatened to summon Zhou Ming; Nether Blood agreed to pay eighty percent.
• The six stripped fortune essence from themselves and handed it to Purple Moon, who promised that Azure Moon Pavilion would leave them alone if they behaved.
• Purple Moon and Qing Yang placed the collected fortune on an array disk outside Zhou Ming’s cave, and the array transported it inside.
• Zhou Ming absorbed the fortune and felt the Law of Strength grow smoother, its shackles begin to loosen, and the Primordial Universe acknowledge him.
