Chapter Summaries

Han Yi revealed that his divine body had reached 230 million zhang after advancing to Divine Venerable, then tested his strength against the mid-stage Divine Venerable Dongfang He. After the gods witnessed Han Yi’s power, Dongfang He took him to meet the First Elder while Nangong Hao was surrounded by cultivators eager to learn about Han Yi.

• Han Yi reported that his divine body had reached 230 million zhang, shocking the gathered gods, and Dongfang He brought him into the chaotic void to test him.
• Han Yi and Dongfang He exchanged blows using only their divine bodies and divine power, and Han Yi adapted until he could force Dongfang He to stagger back.

• Cultivators crowded around Nangong Hao to ask about Han Yi and offer favors, but Nangong Hao said he needed Han Yi’s permission before sharing anything.

Han Yi met the Primordial God Clan's Grand Elder, who recognized a hidden artifact from beyond the realm on him and gave him a Black-and-White Bagua compass to conceal it. The blessing left Han Yi owing the Primordial God Clan a favor, and he returned to Dongfang He with the secret protected—for now.

• Dongfang He led Han Yi to the Grand Elder's mountain, where Han Yi discovered that the stones along the path each contained a tiny Dao domain.

• The Grand Elder detected a deeply concealed power from beyond the realm on Han Yi and privately discussed the danger of others discovering it.
• The Grand Elder gave Han Yi a compass with a Black-and-White Bagua diagram, saying it would conceal the artifact's fluctuations, and made the protection count as a favor owed to the Primordial God Clan.
• After leaving the pavilion, Han Yi considered the Grand Elder's warning and the compass's purpose before rejoining Dongfang He and the other Divine Venerables.

After advancing to Divine Venerable, Han Yi learned that the Wenren Clan had hired the Divine Nest to assassinate him, and he resolved to settle the grudge himself. He returned to the Primordial Beginning Hall as Elder Yi, while Nangong Hao considered how Han Yi’s new status might benefit the Nangong Clan.

• Dongfang He revealed that the Wenren Clan had hired the Divine Nest to kill Han Yi, and Han Yi insisted on handling the grudge himself.
• Dongfang He told Han Yi that Divine Venerable Ni Han had fled to Chaos God City and offered to send him the information gathered about the Divine Nest.
• Han Yi returned to the Primordial Beginning Hall, where Nangong Hao and more than a dozen peak Boundless cultivators were waiting for him.
• Nangong Hao confirmed that Han Yi was a member of the Nangong Clan and introduced him as Elder Nangong Yi, prompting other clan leaders to consider seeking his protection.

Han Yi collected his new Divine Venerable rewards, discovered that the Grand Elder’s blessing had disabled the proficiency panel’s automatic scanning, and learned that his Dark Might Divine Sword could become an ancient artifact. After learning the Wenren Clan had hired the Divine Nest to assassinate him, he took Nangong Hao to confront them, while the clan’s elders argued over Wenren He’s unauthorized decision.

• Han Yi received a Divine Wood Source Crystal, the Dark Might Divine Sword, and divine armor from Dongfang Su, and realized he needed to activate the proficiency panel’s scanning functions himself.

• Han Yi returned to the Nangong Clan, confirmed it was safe, and traveled with Nangong Hao toward the Wenren Clan.
• Wenren Clan elders debated the failed assassination and confronted Wenren He for taking thirteen Source Crystals and hiring the Divine Nest without an Elders’ Council resolution.

Wenren He faced an Elders' Council effort to strip him of his position, but Han Yi and Nangong Hao arrived as Han Yi advanced to Divine Venerable. Han Yi trapped the Wenren elders in separate timelines with his prototype Fate Divine Domain, leaving them frozen within the ancestral temple.

• Wenren Fu accused Wenren He of overstepping his authority and proposed transferring the clan chief's position to the Elders' Council.
• The ancestral temple suppressed Wenren He, but he warned the elders that Nangong Yi had become a Divine Venerable and Nangong Hao was with him.
• Han Yi descended with Nangong Hao, saw the clan's internal conflict, and sent his divine sense through the ancestral temple's restrictions.
• Han Yi separated Wenren He and the other elders into isolated spaces where each experienced a timeline shaped by their deepest desires.
• Nangong Hao recognized Han Yi's power as a divine domain, and Han Yi identified it as the incomplete Fate Divine Domain.

Han Yi pursued Wenren He through the bronze knife coin’s hidden starry realm, intent on killing him and taking the Wenren Clan’s ancient artifact. After Han Yi killed Wenren He, the coin carried them into a deeper region where Han Yi discovered a colossal severed bronze hand and recognized the approaching black insects from an eerie place he had visited before.

• Han Yi’s Fate Divine Domain trapped the Wenren Clan, but Wenren He escaped when a bronze knife coin broke through the domain and opened a rift; Han Yi pursued him while Nangong Hao attacked the clan with the Nanli Divine Saber.
• In a hidden starry realm, Han Yi pursued Wenren He as the coin repeatedly shifted him farther away, and Han Yi noticed Wenren He using Heavenly Water Source Crystals to fuel it.
• Wenren He spent all three source crystals to open a rift into the starry realm’s dangerous depths, but Han Yi struck him through the brow with Yueguang before he could escape.
• Han Yi followed Wenren He, Yueguang, and the bronze knife coin through the closing rift and arrived beside a ten-billion-zhang severed bronze hand.
• Han Yi spotted black, writhing insects approaching and recognized them as creatures from the eerie place he had encountered while pursuing the Ancient Firmament Seal.

Han Yi escaped the bizarre starry sky after absorbing more than a million Life Seeds and returned to normal chaos space. He left Wenren Clan avatars guarding the entrance in the Black Extremity Forbidden Land and headed to Chaos God City to hunt Divine Venerable Ni Han.

• Han Yi took Wenren He's knife coin and found that the nearby starry sky contained an enormous number of Life Seeds, then began absorbing them.
• The black insects merged into increasingly powerful forms, so Han Yi concealed his aura with the Formlessness Dao Art and evaded their perception.
• The bronze giant hand moved and unleashed a force that erased the insect swarm, prompting Han Yi to escape through a fissure with the knife coin.
• Han Yi emerged in normal chaos space with 1,038,729 Life Seeds, captured seven Wenren Clan cultivators as avatars, and ordered them to guard the fissure in the Black Extremity Forbidden Land.
• Han Yi learned about the Black Extremity Forbidden Land and traveled to Chaos God City, where Divine Venerable Ni Han was believed to be hiding.

Han Yi returned to Ancestor God Star, studied Yueguang’s three ancient divine arts, and spent over eight thousand years in the Primordial Beginning Outer Library forming the framework of a new Divine Venerable-level Divine Canon. With his gains secured and nearly ten thousand years passed, he left the Nangong Clan and set out alone for the Fuheng Dao Domain.

• Han Yi searched a Divine Nest stronghold in Chaos God City, learned its two Divine Venerables had fled, and returned to Ancestor God Star to develop a stronger Divine Canon.
• Han Yi settled at the Nangong Clan, subdued Wenren He’s Qingfeng Giant Hammer, and gave Wenren He’s corpse to Nangong Hao.
• Han Yi spent a thousand years learning the Axe Radiance Three Arts from Yueguang and entrusted the weapon to his Divine Aperture World to nurture.
• Han Yi told Nangong Hao to decide how to handle other divine clans seeking affiliation with the Nangong Clan, then entered the Primordial Beginning Outer Library to study Divine Canons.
• After more than eight thousand years, Han Yi established the preliminary framework of a new Divine Canon and returned to the Nangong Clan.
• Han Yi informed Nangong Hao that he was returning to the Fuheng Dao Domain, then departed Ancestor God Star alone.

Han Yi returned from the Ancestor God Dao Domain, where Grave Beasts were increasingly threatening God Clan worlds, and learned that the Immemorial World remained quiet while the Celestial Venerables were still at Kunlun Mountain. Unable to return safely to the Immemorial World, he rebuilt the Great Wilderness Dao Palace in the Fuheng Eastern Realm, advanced to Dao Integration, and found the new faction flourishing.

• Han Yi witnessed a juvenile Grave Beast attack a God Clan world, then saw its aged Supreme God collapse after driving it away.
• Han Yi crossed back into the Fu Heng Dao Domain and learned through his Wanming Incarnations that the Immemorial World had remained calm and the Celestial Venerables had not returned from Kunlun Mountain.
• Han Yi decided the Dao Immortal Grand Celestial Venerable could find and kill him in the Immemorial World, so he traveled to the Fuheng Eastern Realm instead.
• Han Yi established a divine mountain near the Transcendence Dao Mark and gathered his Dao Realm incarnations to rebuild the Great Wilderness Dao Palace.
• Han Yi synchronized the Immortal Dao progress of his incarnations and spent nearly seven hundred thousand Life Seeds to advance to Dao Integration.
• Han Yi emerged after his cultivation and saw that the Great Wilderness Dao Palace had grown into a thriving major Immortal Dao power.

Han Yi strengthened the Great Wilderness Dao Palace and traveled to the Eternal Dao Mark to prepare for advancing to Heavenly Venerable. There, Heavenly Venerable Lei Yan recognized Han Yi and realized his astonishing rise might fulfill the Fate Dao Palace Palace Master's prophecy about the Dao Palace's future.

• Han Yi summoned Li San, Si Kou Feiyu, and Helian Zhao, revealed his Divine Venerable power, and asked them how to build a major power, but none had a sound plan.
• Han Yi improved the Great Wilderness Dao Palace's Ninefold Unity Heavenly Extremity Divine Formation, assigned Si Kou Feiyu to oversee it, and put Li San in charge of its operations.
• Han Yi went to the Eternal Dao Mark and began comprehending its destructive and life-giving powers to prepare for his Heavenly Venerable breakthrough and future Divine Canon.
• Heavenly Venerable Lei Yan recognized Han Yi while guarding Dao Ancestor Houtu and was shocked by his rise from Dao Realm to Divine Venerable in less than twenty thousand years.
• Heavenly Venerable Lei Yan concluded that Han Yi, rather than Houtu, might be the figure tied to the Fate Dao Palace's future and could one day become a World Venerable.

After five thousand years of cultivating near the Transcendence Dao Mark, Han Yi learned that Demon Witch Mountain had returned to Fuheng Dao Domain and went to meet its First Mountain Lord. The Sword Demon Witch welcomed him but could not explain whether the Dao Tomb crisis had become solvable.

• Han Yi recognized Dao Ancestor Houtu near the Dao Mark, exchanged greetings with her Celestial Venerable protector, and resumed his cultivation without disturbing her.
• After five thousand years, Han Yi received a message that Demon Witch Mountain had returned to Fuheng Dao Domain and reviewed reports about changes in Great Wilderness Dao Palace and Primordial Antiquity.

• Han Yi asked the Sword Demon Witch why Demon Witch Mountain had returned and whether the Dao Tomb crisis could now be resolved, but the Sword Demon Witch said he did not know.

• The First Mountain Lord said he would return to the forbidden ground in two thousand years to seek an opportunity against the Dao Tomb, and Han Yi agreed to accompany him.
• Han Yi left Demon Witch Mountain and traveled through the chaos, preparing for a fight with the True Saint Palace and anticipating the forbidden-ground expedition.

Yuehua Celestial Venerable sought Jin Lei in the ruins of the Great True Profound Sect while Han Yi waited in vain for the True Saint Palace to return. After cultivating for nearly two thousand years, Han Yi returned to Demon Witch Mountain, where the First Mountain Lord prepared to strengthen his Dark Might Divine Sword with Blackflame Witchstone.

• Yuehua Celestial Venerable and Lu Chu Celestial Venerable entered the Demon Abyss Pool to seek Jin Lei Celestial Venerable and the Great True Profound Sect's inheritance, hoping to strengthen themselves against a looming calamity.
• Han Yi searched the True Saint Great World for the True Saint Palace, found traces of the Great True Saint Sword, and hid nearby to await its return.

• After nearly two thousand years of cultivation, Han Yi left his stakeout and returned to Demon Witch Mountain, believing a battle in its forbidden land might bring him closer to the Celestial Venerable Tribulation.
• The First Mountain Lord drew out Han Yi's Dark Might Divine Sword and said that Blackflame Witchstone could raise its power beyond what Profound Desolation Heart Amber could achieve.

The First Mountain Lord used Blackflame Witchstone to advance Han Yi’s Dark Might Divine Sword into an ancient artifact in exchange for Han Yi’s promise to watch over Sword Demon Witch Mountain when he could. He then took Han Yi to meet the other Demon Witches, while explaining the coming ninth Dao Tomb and the struggle to become a Transcendent.

• The First Mountain Lord instructed the other Mountain Lords before leaving Sword Demon Witch Mountain with Han Yi.
• As they crossed the Chaos, the First Mountain Lord told Han Yi that the ninth Dao Tomb would be the fiercest and likely the last, and that the Dao God Sect had also sought a method to use its power for cultivation.
• The First Mountain Lord and Han Yi traveled through the Destiny and Ancient Nether Dao Domains to a region beyond them, where more than a dozen Demon Witches were waiting.
• The First Mountain Lord introduced Han Yi to the gathered Demon Witches as Sword Demon Witch Mountain’s newest Divine Venerable, and Fire Witch greeted them.

Han Yi entered the Xishu Ancient Battlefield with the Demon Witch Mountain cultivators, where outsiders were marked by the battlefield’s malice and faced deadly dangers. After killing an Outer Dao realm cultivator and gaining world power, he confronted an early-level Heavenly Venerable from the Xuanhai Sect and unleashed Axe Radiance’s Martial Fiend divine art.

• The First Mountain Lord introduced Han Yi to the Demon Witches and other Heavenly Venerables, then opened the silver gate to the Xishu Ancient Battlefield and warned them of its dangers.
• The cultivators entered the battlefield, and a Dao Spirit World Transcendent observed Han Yi, noting his concealed otherworldly artifact and rapid advance to Divine Venerable.
• Han Yi arrived in the battlefield, found that its malice marked him as an outsider, and suppressed his aura with the Formless Dao Art.
• Han Yi killed an Outer Dao realm cultivator with Axe Radiance and gained 67 points of world power through his panel.
• An early-level Heavenly Venerable from the Xuanhai Sect arrived seeking revenge, and Han Yi met his lightning attack with Axe Radiance’s Martial Fiend divine art.

Han Yi killed an early-stage Celestial Venerable on the Xishu Ancient Battlefield, then discovered that the World Force he gained had activated three Small Worlds inside the Heavy Profound Dao Stele. He sealed the stele and continued onward with the damaged Thunder Ancient Sword in hand.

• Han Yi used Martial Fiend and the Yueguang Ancient Artifact to overpower a Xishu Celestial Venerable, shatter the Thunder Ancient Sword, and kill its wielder before he could unleash a forbidden art.
• Han Yi collected the Celestial Venerable's belongings, suppressed the damaged Thunder Ancient Sword, and fled into nothingness while disguising his aura as the dead cultivator's.
• Han Yi saw that the 329 points of World Force gained from the kill had vanished from his panel and sensed an abnormal change in the Heavy Profound Dao Stele.
• Han Yi discovered three newly manifested Small Worlds inside the stele and realized that its weight had more than doubled after absorbing World Force.
• Han Yi sealed the Heavy Profound Dao Stele with three layers of the Sealing God Art, stored it in his Divine Aperture World, and took out the Thunder Ancient Sword.

Han Yi survived ten thousand years of battles in the Xishu Ancient Battlefield while using Origin Crystals and Life Seeds to complete his Divine Canon, the Myriad Realms Origin Divine Canon. He returned from the battlefield just before the deadline, unaware that his early killings had made its malice toward him far stronger than toward other outsiders.

• Han Yi sealed the damaged lightning ancient sword, absorbed three lightning-attributed Origin Crystals, and poured his Life Seeds into his unfinished Divine Canon.
• Han Yi fought in battles between alien races and gathered Origin Crystals and Realm Force by killing Dao Realm cultivators.

• Han Yi completed the Myriad Realms Origin Divine Canon and reached initial-stage God Venerable 18/100.
• Han Yi chose to leave the Xishu Ancient Battlefield as the ten-thousand-year deadline arrived, unaware that the battlefield's malice had targeted him far more intensely than other outsiders.

Han Yi returned from the Xishu Ancient Battlefield and discovered that his experiences there had been far more dangerous than those of the other surviving Heavenly Venerates. As he waited with them and examined his diminished gains, the battlefield’s key appeared, confirming that the First Mountain Lord and other missing entrants had fallen.

• Han Yi returned with Fire Witch and four other Heavenly Venerates, learned that the First Mountain Lord was missing, and concealed how unusually dangerous his own battlefield experiences had been.
• Han Yi realized that taking world force had likely drawn greater malice from the battlefield, then learned that the key would appear if the remaining entrants had left or perished.
• Han Yi found that most of his weapons and treasures had vanished or been damaged upon his return, while his completed Myriad Realms Origin Divine Canon and combat experience remained valuable gains.
• Fire Witch explained that the battlefield was a peculiar fragment drawn from beyond the realms, and Han Yi began creating a Heavenly Venerate-level divine art while the group waited.
• One year later, Wood Witch and another Heavenly Venerate returned, and the five-pointed-star key appeared, confirming the deaths of those still missing.
• Wood Witch learned that the First Mountain Lord and Phoenix Witch had not returned and was shocked because he had encountered Sword Witch in the battlefield three thousand years earlier.

After the Sword Witch Heavenly Venerable died in the Xishu Ancient Battlefield, Han Yi accepted the silver star key and continued through the Ancient Nether Dao Domain. The Wanming Book led him to a hidden fragment of Ten Thousand Nether City, but as he prepared to leave, an Ancient Profundity Dao Sect Heavenly Venerable arrived and demanded the ruin’s belongings.

• The Fire Witch Heavenly Venerable gave Han Yi the silver five-pointed-star key as Sword Witch’s relic, and the other Heavenly Venerables departed.
• Han Yi sealed the key, returned to the Ancient Nether Dao Domain, and continued toward the Destiny Dao Domain while concealing his cultivation of the Wanming Book.
• The Wanming Book alerted Han Yi to a nearby lost fragment of Ten Thousand Nether City and guided him to a hidden ruin.
• Han Yi tore open the deep-layered space, seized the fragment, calmed it with the Wanming Book’s aura, and sealed it inside his body.
• Han Yi collected valuable structures from the ruin and destroyed its Dao Ancestor-level corpse fiends.
• An Ancient Profundity Dao Sect Heavenly Venerable arrived and asked Han Yi to return the ruin’s belongings to the sect.

Han Yi claimed the Ten Thousand Nether City fragment from Celestial Venerable Gu Chen by posing as Nangong Yi, an elder of the Primordial God Clan. After defeating Gu Chen and setting terms for a possible exchange, Han Yi escaped the Ancient Nether Dao Domain and continued toward the Fuheng Dao Domain.

• Han Yi confronted Gu Chen, claimed the ruin’s treasure as his own, and threatened to seek help from the Primordial Lord if Ancient Profundity Dao Sect tried to seize it.
• Gu Chen offered compensation for the fragment, but Han Yi refused and advanced with his spear, forcing Gu Chen to summon his sword and chaos domain.
• Han Yi overwhelmed Gu Chen’s bronze ancient sword with two spear strikes, badly damaging its spirituality and driving Gu Chen to retreat.
• Gu Chen accepted Han Yi’s ownership of the fragment and asked to buy it, so Han Yi offered to exchange it in sixty thousand years for a mid-stage God Venerable ancient artifact.
• Han Yi left without letting Gu Chen follow, stayed alert while crossing the chaos, and reached the passage from the Ancient Nether Dao Domain into the Destiny Dao Domain before speeding toward the Fuheng Dao Domain.
