• Jiang Ping'an brought the Black Emperor into the Creation God Wheel World and accelerated its time flow to nine thousand times faster.

• Jiang Ping'an asked the Yellow Emperor and Azure Emperor how to locate the Great Black Heavenly Devil God's true body and avatars, but they said such abilities were rare and taboo.
• Jiang Ping'an decided he would have to create a tracking divine ability or refine a tracking Divine Artifact himself.

Black Emperor advanced to the Immortal Realm, and after a year-long celebration, he and Jiang Ping'an secretly left Heavenly Court Island to hunt the Great Black Heavenly Devil God.

• The Immortal Reception Array brought thirty-two cultivators from the lower realm, and Jiang Ping'an assigned Minister Ying to settle them.

• Jiang Ping'an held a year-long immortality celebration for Black Emperor, then the two quietly left Heavenly Court Island to hunt the Great Black Heavenly Devil God.

Jiang Ping'an and Black Emperor hunted down and suppressed the Great Black Heavenly Devil God's avatars, then tracked his true body to God City. They hesitated to enter the city, whose immense pressure injured Jiang Ping'an and whose dangers could overwhelm them.

• Jiang Ping'an and Black Emperor agreed to capture the Great Black Heavenly Devil God's avatars alive so his true body would not be warned by their deaths.
• Black Emperor found and helped Jiang Ping'an suppress the first avatar, then later an Immortal avatar killed itself after recognizing Jiang Ping'an.

• Over two years, Black Emperor captured all of the Great Black Heavenly Devil God's avatars.
• Black Emperor located the Great Black Heavenly Devil God's true body inside God City, where the city's pressure shattered Jiang Ping'an's eyes and made them question whether they could enter.

Jiang Ping'an and Black Emperor entered God City to hunt down Great Black Heavenly Devil God, but learned that he was protected by the powerful Devil Venerable Xuanming. Ling Wei offered information and a chance to cooperate, leaving Jiang Ping'an weighing a risky plan to lure Great Black Heavenly Devil God out of the city.

Jiang Ping'an had Black Emperor verify Ling Wei’s identity and learned she was Yue Yinshuang, the last princess of the Silver Moon Divine Phoenix clan seeking revenge on Devil Venerable Xuanming. After securing her oath of cooperation, he arranged an ambush plan targeting Great Black Heavenly Devil God and began preparing for the operation twenty years later.

• Black Emperor investigated Xuanming’s history and learned that Devil Venerable Xuanming had nearly exterminated the Silver Moon Divine Phoenix clan to seize its Taiyin Source Core.

• Jiang Ping'an refined his Creation Divine Artifacts and strengthened his Heart Force Divine Core as Black Emperor monitored Xuanming Palace and Great Black Heavenly Devil God's movements.

Jiang Ping'an ambushed Xuanming Devil God with the Void God-Trapping Array, hoping to force him to make Great Black Heavenly Devil God leave God City. After a fierce battle, Jiang Ping'an defeated him and pressured him into sending a message, leaving the ambush awaiting Great Black Heavenly Devil God’s response.

• Jiang Ping'an prepared his three Creation Divine Artifacts and traveled to the wasteland, where Daoist Poxu completed the Void God-Trapping Array.
• Xuanming Devil God sensed danger and confronted Jiang Ping'an before entering the array, then revealed a hidden Creation Divine Artifact and attacked him.

After confirming the scheme, Jiang Ping'an went to confront Xuanming Devil God, hinting that he had another plan.

• After the Great Black Heavenly Devil God failed to answer Xuanming Devil God's pleas for help, Jiang Ping'an convinced Xuanming to swear he would stop sheltering Great Black and force him out of God City.
• Ling Wei demanded Jiang Ping'an help her kill Xuanming Devil God and offered herself as his Cultivation Partner, but Jiang Ping'an refused to promise revenge and later accepted her advances without changing his position.
• Xuanming Devil God returned to Xuanming Palace and agreed with Great Black's plan to pretend to expel him, then lure Jiang Ping'an into a trap outside the city.
• Xuanming Palace announced that Xuanming had expelled Great Black, and Jiang Ping'an told Black Emperor to secretly watch him while Ling Wei warned that the expulsion was likely a ruse.
• After Black Emperor confirmed that Xuanming and Great Black were acting together, Jiang Ping'an went to Xuanming Palace to question Xuanming, saying he had another method.

Jiang Ping'an forced Xuanming Devil God to swear by his true name and Great Black Heaven’s true name, secretly obtaining the names he needed to use the Book of Life and Death. He and Ling Wei agreed to join forces against Xuanming Devil God, while Ling Wei went to contact his enemies and Jiang Ping'an waited in God City.

• Jiang Ping'an confronted Xuanming Devil God and demanded an oath by his true name and Great Black Heaven’s true name.
• Xuanming Devil God swore that he would no longer shelter Great Black Heaven and revealed their true names, Eming You and Moyuan Zhi.
• Jiang Ping'an returned to Anshen Inn and told Black Emperor that he had gained something, but kept the secret of the Book of Life and Death to himself.
• Ling Wei arrived, and Jiang Ping'an brought her into the Creation God Wheel's world to discuss their plans and confirm her promise to become his Cultivation Partner after Xuanming Devil God's death.
• Ling Wei proposed recruiting Xuanming Devil God's enemies to ambush him, and Jiang Ping'an agreed to let her contact them.
• Ling Wei left to make contact while Jiang Ping'an returned to his cultivation room to nurture the Book of Life and Death and await her news.

Jiang Ping'an spent months cultivating the Book of Life and Death, then met Old Ancestor Cangming and the Burning Heaven Sword Master to verify their hatred of the Xuanming Devil God and arrange an alliance. The three agreed to ambush the Xuanming Devil God when he left the city to attack Jiang Ping'an.

• Jiang Ping'an poured Heart Force into the Book of Life and Death, but it still could not guarantee the death of a top-tier Chaos God Devil.
• Ling Wei returned with Old Ancestor Cangming and the Burning Heaven Sword Master, who both wanted revenge on the Xuanming Devil God.
• Jiang Ping'an met the two at the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, where they questioned his motives and cultivation.
• After three days of probing, the three confirmed they sincerely wanted to kill the Xuanming Devil God and agreed to auction his Creation Divine Artifact knife and divide the proceeds.
• Jiang Ping'an proposed that they surround and kill the Xuanming Devil God when he left the city to ambush him, and both allies agreed.
