After killing Yingmu with the Star-Extinguishing Art, I took his Star Casket and escaped as Antu and Long Yi fought Xue Chi. Antu trapped me with Nine Heavens Star Descent, but I used Yingmu’s Star-Heaven Mist Sea formation position to vanish beyond his reach as Long Yi and Xue Chi arrived.

• The green-worm-faced Child Spirit welcomed Xue Chi and Long Yi, saying that foreign insects from the Heavenly Grass Constellation would gather there and that Star God Heaven’s future might begin in Jadefall Gorge.

The narrator evaded the green-insect-faced man’s attempt to block his Starry Heaven Mist Sea and learned that the Child Spirits sought to repair the heavenly leak and reclaim Golden Qiong Heaven. He persuaded the man to consider joining forces with Starbearers who opposed using Star God Heaven as a star artifact, and the chapter ended with the man asking what to do next.

• The green-insect-faced man concealed the projected stars with green mist, while the narrator moved toward a favorable fortune to avoid being exposed.

• The green-insect-faced man smashed Long Yi into the ground and asked the narrator what he should do if he believed him.

The narrator persuaded Jiao Bai and the Spirit race to cooperate, then secretly took control of a Life-Linking Worm they planted in his body. As Jiao Bai led the group into Jadefall Gorge, the enraged Star-Devouring Dragon roared nearby.

• The narrator offered to infiltrate the Star Controllers for the Spirit race, and Jiao Bai agreed to cooperate after arguing that sufficient benefits could secure loyalty.
• Jiao Bai produced a Life-Linking Worm and demanded that the narrator let it enter his body as proof of allegiance.

• Jiao Bai led the narrator, Dragon Remnant, and Snow Blaze toward the depths of Jadefall Gorge, but a roar revealed that the Star-Devouring Dragon had been enraged.

The narrator followed Jiao Bai and the others as the Gluttonous Star Dragon raced toward the Child Spirits’ ancestral land, and Jiao Bai feared it sought revenge. The narrator urged Jiao Bai to protect their roots while using the dragon’s absence to plunder its hoard, leaving Jiao Bai considering the plan.

• The narrator, Jiao Bai, Xue Chi, and Long Yi saw the Gluttonous Star Dragon heading toward the ancestral land as the sky darkened and shook.

• The narrator questioned whether a stronger force had manipulated the dragon’s course, and Jiao Bai agreed that Great Luotians might be interfering with their karma.
• The narrator told Jiao Bai to warn and defend the ancestral land, then suggested they raid the Gluttonous Star Dragon’s lair while it was away.
• Jiao Bai stopped and asked what the narrator meant.

The narrator set out to loot the Gluttonous Star Dragon’s lair, but Great Cosmic Heaven An Tu intercepted him and demanded that he join a treasure-hunting team. The narrator agreed while refusing An Tu’s demand for half the spoils, ending with a threat to ruin the search if An Tu pressed the issue.

• An Tu explained that his group had lured the Gluttonous Star Dragon toward the Heavenly Grass ancestral land and planned to loot its territory before it returned.
• The narrator asked to bring three female companions, then refused An Tu’s rule requiring the team to surrender half its spoils.
• The narrator warned An Tu that he could summon the beings transformed by the Heavenly Grass or make the Gluttonous Star Dragon return early.

Xia Ye negotiated with An Tu for access to the Greedy Star Dragon’s lair, then reunited with Tian Zi, Di Gou, and Yun Heng to search it for treasure. After the group split up using their shared stellar projections, Tian Zi reported finding a cavern with a powerful aura that might belong to someone.

• Xia Ye pressured An Tu into giving his group the northwest district of the Greedy Star Dragon’s lair to search.
• Xia Ye released Tian Zi, Di Gou, and Yun Heng from hiding and reassured them after explaining what had happened.
• Xia Ye connected the women’s Star Caskets to the team network and explained how they could track positions and terrain through stellar projections.

• Xia Ye joined Tian Zi at a purple-smoke-covered opening and entered it with her to investigate.
• Xia Ye and Tian Zi realized the mist created different illusions based on each person's thoughts.

• Xia Ye identified the pearl as the Heaven-Evolving Illusory Star and gave it to Tian Zi, explaining how it could strengthen her Star Casket formation.
• Tian Zi began to confess her feelings to Xia Ye, but Yun Heng's message interrupted them, and Tian Zi asked to speak with him later.

Zi Ye found Yun Heng struggling to open a Star Casket and teased her about their relationship before identifying its treasure as the Minor Star God Formation. Yun Heng rejected it in frustration, so Zi Ye went to offer it to Di Gou, whose flirtation turned uncertain when he responded enthusiastically.

• Zi Ye teleported to Yun Heng and found her inside a starry veil, facing a newly awakened Star Casket.
• Zi Ye teased Yun Heng about being less generous to her than to Tian Zi, and Yun Heng became upset over their relationship.
• Zi Ye identified the Star Casket as the Minor Star God Formation, which could temporarily copy another person's Star Seat formation, and handed it to Yun Heng.
• Yun Heng refused the formation, so Zi Ye said he would give it to Di Gou and teleported to her.
• Di Gou flirted with Zi Ye, but she grew suspicious and asked whether he was serious when he embraced her.

Xia Ye helped Di Gou uncover and refine the Magnetic Star Leak, then handed her the Little Star God Formation for Yun Heng and the others. He discovered that An Tu’s team had found the Gluttonous Star Dragon’s main treasure vault, and An Tu confronted him as his Nine Heavens Starfall surrounded Xia Ye’s Star God Seat.

• Xia Ye found the Magnetic Star Leak hidden in a mound of earth and explained its powers to Di Gou.

• Xia Ye appeared before An Tu and the other Star Controllers, and An Tu surrounded Xia Ye’s Star God Seat with his Nine Heavens Starfall.

Xia Ye used the Starry Mist Sea to evade An Tu’s attacks and sow distrust among the Great Primordial Heavens, triggering a chaotic struggle over the treasure pool. After An Tu attacked Xia Ye and opened a pit beneath the pool, Xia Ye escaped into the next layer, where he had sensed a hidden mystery.

• Xia Ye taunted An Tu and warned the Great Primordial Heavens that An Tu intended to kill them after the treasure hunt.

• Xia Ye evaded the attack with the Starry Mist Sea and flew into the next layer, following the hidden mystery he had sensed beneath the ground.

The narrator and An Tu descended into the Star-Devouring Dragon’s cavern to search for treasures, but Gou Huan, the former master of the Illusory Star of Heavenly Derivation, ambushed them with the Nine-Star Netherfall. Gou Huan trapped the narrator and revealed that the cavern had been emptied long ago, leaving the searchers to face an uncertain threat.

• The narrator and An Tu reached the vast cavern floor, where the narrator sensed the scattered treasures offered little opportunity and chose to explore one direction.
• An Tu refused to let the narrator leave alone, but a colossal blade suddenly struck him down, and Gou Huan emerged from the darkness.
• Gou Huan attacked An Tu with the Nine-Star Netherfall, while the narrator tried to flee and was trapped inside a space shaped by the Starry Sky Mist Sea.
• An Tu told Gou Huan that the Star Controllers were losing ground, Long Yi and Xue Chi had been corrupted by Sky Grass, and Zhi Chong had perished.
• Gou Huan said the Star-Devouring Dragon had excavated the cavern and that no treasures could remain, making the narrator and An Tu realize their search had been futile.

Gou Huan killed An Tu and ordered Xia Ye to capture Tian Zi, who had taken his star artifact. Xia Ye retrieved a sealed object beneath the Gluttonous Star Dragon, then gathered the others and warned them that the dragon was returning after its Star Navel was torn apart.

• Gou Huan crushed An Tu with spatial suppression, but An Tu’s Star Casket and Nine Heavens Starfall vanished into an alternate dimension.

• Xia Ye rejoined Tian Zi and the others, told them about Gou Huan, and decided they should keep the Heaven-Evolving Illusory Star.
• Xia Ye explained that the Gluttonous Star Dragon would return because its Star Navel had been torn apart, and everyone saw darkness swallow the area above the Treasure Pool.

As the Gluttonous Star Dragon unleashed deadly black mist, Xia Ye led Tian Zi, Yun Heng, and Di Gou toward the core of Jadefall Gorge and tried to learn more about the Eight-Sided Rubik's Cube. Tian Zi accidentally opened it, and the four of them were pulled into another spatial universe.

• Xia Ye reassured Tian Zi and the others, then chose to head for the core of Jadefall Gorge despite their fears about the transformed Great Cosmic Heavens.
• Jiao Bai contacted Xia Ye, who blamed the dragon's return on Gou Huan fighting An Tu and was ordered to watch the dragon from a distance.
• Xia Ye took the three women aboard the Small Ascension Star Ferry and considered the danger of opening the Eight-Sided Rubik's Cube, which he believed Long Zhao had left under the Gluttonous Star Dragon's protection.
• Yun Heng and Di Gou failed to open the Rubik's Cube, but Tian Zi accidentally unlocked it as Xia Ye tried to take it away.
• A torrent burst from the Rubik's Cube and dragged Xia Ye, Tian Zi, Yun Heng, and Di Gou into another spatial universe.

Xia Ye and the others entered a hidden inner world of the Heavenly Grass Constellation through the magic cube and investigated how it remained untouched by Heavenly Grass seeds. After they split up to explore, their party link and teleportation failed as the timeline began shifting out of alignment.

• Xia Ye identified the beautiful forest world as the living inner world of the Heavenly Grass Constellation, connected to the outside by the magic cube.
• Yun Heng demonstrated that Heavenly Grass seeds could rapidly infect the world's plants and creatures, then sealed away everything they had touched.
• The magic cube acknowledged Tian Zi as its master, prompting Xia Ye to warn the others that higher-level interference might be at work.
• Xia Ye proposed that they split into four directions and explore the world to discover its purpose.
• After the group separated, the Star God Seat became disordered, teleportation failed, and the timeline began shifting out of alignment.

The narrator traced the space-time distortion to a transit station between Star God Heaven and the Heavenly Grass Constellation, then found Tian Zi and learned the magic cube could return when its holder severed their connection to it. They suspected the other cube had been deliberately kept from returning, leaving the narrator and Tian Zi to investigate the trap and find a way out.

• The narrator deduced that the distorted space was a transit station connecting Star God Heaven to the Heavenly Grass Constellation and located Tian Zi with Heaven-Earth Origin Suppression.
• The narrator found Tian Zi hiding from a giant flying whale and learned it had begun chasing her when she searched for him with the magic cube.
• Tian Zi recalled that the bureau’s Great Forbidden Repository mission in the Heavenly Grass Constellation had disappeared, and she and the narrator reasoned that its other magic cube might have been lost or disabled.
• The narrator explained that a Star Casket was needed to activate the magic cube, and Tian Zi realized the cube had been absorbing her power while she held it.
• Tian Zi severed her connection to the cube, causing it to fly away; the narrator concluded the other cube had probably been deliberately prevented from returning by the last person who accepted the mission.

Xia Ye investigated the nine stone formations and concluded that a hidden Star Controller organization had built them to gather power beyond the reach of Star God Heaven. After one formation activated and disrupted the Star Casket connection, Xia Ye and the others debated returning home, but an unseen figure interrupted his explanation with applause.

• Xia Ye led Tian Zi to a bone-covered stone formation and identified it as one of nine formation eyes linked to a larger star formation.
• A star formation appeared in the sky after another stone formation activated, so Xia Ye rushed with Tian Zi to Yun Heng and Di Gou.
• Yun Heng and Di Gou activated the Star Casket, but the connection failed as the star formation blocked Star Controller projections.
• Tian Zi explained the danger to Yun Heng and Di Gou, while Xia Ye suspected the formations let someone control the laws of an entire world.
• Xia Ye conjectured that a Star Controller organization had built the formations to gather power for its hidden goal, but a burst of clapping interrupted him.
