• Nuwa asked about the Humanity Dao Spokesperson, and Li Yun introduced Li Xuan, who asked what she sought from him.

Li Yun confirmed that Li Xuan was his clone and the Humanity Dao Spokesperson, explaining that the clone would become a Saint while he continued pursuing Attaining Dao through Strength. Nuwa then demanded an explanation over the Human Race Destiny, but Li Yun argued that their earlier exchange had been voluntary and her failed plan was her own responsibility.

• Li Yun confirmed to Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others that Li Xuan was his clone and the Humanity Dao Spokesperson.
• Ancestor Minghe questioned Li Yun about the danger of his powerful clone, but Li Yun said he trusted him.

• Li Yun advised Dijiang to have the three kings rule in separate generations, then let the Ancestor Witches reclaim authority after their successions.
• Dijiang accepted Li Yun’s plan and thanked him for his guidance.

Xuandu urged Dijiang to let future Witch Clan kings govern rather than reclaiming authority every three generations, and Dijiang agreed to consult the other Ancestor Witches. When the Dragon Clan caused the East Sea to flood the Human Race’s coast, Li Yun decided to turn the crisis into a chance for the Heavenly Sovereign to attain the Dao.

• Xuandu argued that reclaiming authority after three generations would hinder the Witch Clan’s future, and Dijiang said he would discuss the proposal with the other Ancestor Witches.

• Li Yun told Xuandu to isolate the affected region and ordered his three Direct Disciples to compete for the Heavenly Sovereign position by winning the Human Race’s recognition, without fighting one another.

Li Yun arranged for Xuandu to select candidates for the Five Emperors while the Human Race prepared to establish the Three Sovereigns. He then proposed that the Witch Clan and Human Race create a mixed territory and have children together, leaving Dijiang to consider the plan.

• Youchao Shi hurried away, and Li Yun stopped Xuandu from going to seal off the Eastern Sea area so they could prioritize the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
• Li Yun told Xuandu to choose candidates for the Five Emperors, then go to the East Sea to cut off the area once the candidates were settled.
• Dijiang said the Witch Clan needed to speed up its own plans, and Li Yun explained that Humanity Dao had chosen his three Direct Disciples as the Three Sovereigns.
• As Dijiang prepared to leave, Li Yun asked him to discuss turning the mountain range between their territories into mixed land for the Witch Clan and Human Race.
• Li Yun argued that the two peoples shared a connection to Pangu and suggested that their descendants could give both races a way forward regardless of who won future conflicts.

Li Yun and Dijiang agreed to arrange cooperation between the Human Race and the Witch Clan, while Li Yun offered his guards and disciples opportunities to advance through special Fortuitous Encounters. The chapter left the guards preparing to compete for three Guardian positions and Li Yun’s disciples accepting a chance to become Half-Saints.

• Dijiang agreed to discuss cooperation with the Witch Clan and open a breach in the region, while Li Yun promised to send people to work with the Human Race.
• After Dijiang departed, Li Yun announced that three guards would be chosen as Guardians for his Direct Disciples, with the winners gaining tremendous benefits.

• Li Yun’s disciples unanimously said they were willing to try for the opportunity.

Li Yun told his disciples that one of them could earn the remaining Five Emperor throne through the trust and support of the Human Race. After the disciples left to pursue that chance, Nannan asked Li Yun to give her a name, and he began recalling a woman from his previous life.

• Li Yun announced that the Three Sovereigns would be Guyue, Luoyang, and Luochuan, while one Five Emperor throne remained for his disciples to compete for.

• Nannan told Li Yun that she had no name of her own and asked him to bestow one; hearing her name, Li Yun recalled a woman from his previous life.

Li Yun named Nannan Ye Qingcheng and examined the black clay jar that suppressed her urge to devour, discovering it was a bonded treasure tied to the Law of Devour. He awakened her Devouring Physique by having her absorb a Wind-Thunder spirit fruit, then began testing how much more her cultivation could absorb.

• Li Yun named Nannan Ye Qingcheng, and she asked him for help controlling the restless power within her body.
• Li Yun examined Ye Qingcheng's black clay jar and explained that strengthening her Law of Devour would help her control its power.

• Ye Qingcheng's Devouring Physique awakened and raised her cultivation to the late stage of the Grand Unity True Immortal Realm.
• Li Yun summoned medicinal pills and told Ye Qingcheng to keep circulating her cultivation method while he tested how much her physique could absorb.

Li Yun made Ye Qingcheng his Direct Disciple and sole Inheritor of the Robe and Bowl, then imparted the more powerful Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique. After guiding her through its destructive refinement, he left her with greatly strengthened cultivation at the Mid Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm.

• Li Yun explained why Ye Qingcheng was suited to inherit his robe and bowl, and Ye Qingcheng resolutely accepted.
• Li Yun promised to teach Ye Qingcheng the Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique, which he had created by combining the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique and the Ancestor Witch Body Tempering Art.

• Li Yun instructed Ye Qingcheng to destroy and rebuild her body as she circulated the technique, and she reached the Mid Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm in fleshly cultivation.
• Li Yun withdrew his hand and waited after Ye Qingcheng's power surged to an unprecedented level.

Li Yun brought Ye Qingcheng to the Humanity Dao Space to meet Laozi after her Eye of Devour awakened, while Laozi discussed his limits and the Three Pure Ones’ stolen Original Primordial Spirits. The chapter left Ye Qingcheng entering the Palace of Supreme Purity as Laozi’s conversation with Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian concluded.

• Ye Qingcheng awakened the incomplete Eye of Devour, and Li Yun told her to refine the power she had absorbed instead of devouring more for now.
• Li Yun arranged for Ye Qingcheng to meet her grandmaster, Laozi, and receive suitable treasures for self-defense.
• Li Yun opened a Space Tunnel and brought Ye Qingcheng into the Humanity Dao Space, where she was astonished by Laozi’s Palace of Supreme Purity.
• Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian praised Laozi’s power after hearing his insights, though they could not comprehend their deeper mysteries.
• Laozi told Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian that he could contend with Hongjun but not defeat him or Heavenly Dao, and that he could not fully retrieve their Original Primordial Spirits.
