Fifty years of transformation brought a flourishing golden age to the Sun-Shading World, where powerful new lineages and prodigies reshaped the balance of power. When the primordial races emerged from divine source, they learned that the new era had surpassed their expectations and left them far behind.

• The Sun-Shading World’s spiritual energy surged, ancient life stars reconnected, and new kings, saints, Great Sages, and Quasi-Emperors rose across the universe.

• The primordial races’ prodigies and leaders declared that they would suppress the Human Race and dominate the world.
• After learning about the Gods and Demons Dao Lineages, the higher realms, and the strength of the present generation, the ancient races realized they had been eclipsed and trembled in fear.

Gu Xi expanded his cultivation by comprehending the Primordial Five Virtues and Primordial Five Destinies, then used their relationship to devise a new hierarchy of realms above ordinary Saints. He concluded that completing one set could bring him to Great God Pangu’s realm, while uniting both sets could lead to the Primordial Wuji realm and perhaps transcendence of the universe.

• Gu Xi checked his status and noted the new Dao Fruits he had gained, along with his merit, debt, and other financial records.

• Gu Xi deduced that a Saint of one Great Dao belonged to the Primordial Great Luo realm, a complete set of connected Great Daos could reach the Primordial Taiji realm, and two mutually generating and restraining sets could reach the Primordial Wuji realm.
• Gu Xi guessed that Great God Pangu had reached the Primordial Taiji realm and that Hongjun stood near its threshold, then resolved that uniting the Five Virtues and Five Destinies could let him surpass Pangu and possibly transcend the universe.

• Gu Xi ordered Little Stone to go after the Suanni’s remains as a trial, and the old clan chief accepted his decision.

When powerful outsiders arrived, they recognized the Suanni’s reverence for Gu Xi and the willow tree and realized Stone Village was far more dangerous than it looked.

• Gu Xi rode the Suanni into Stone Village, where the villagers gathered to marvel at the beast and the Suanni recognized the willow tree and Five-Colored Sparrow as powerful presences.

• A group of outsiders arrived in the Great Wilderness, and a child on a flood dragon declared that he wanted the willow branch before elders warned everyone not to act rashly.

• Gu Xi casually accepted the four forces’ worship, while the Cloud Heaven Palace elder envied them but could not pledge his own force.
