Chapter Summary

Key Plot Points and Events

• You explains to Feng Xi that the Heavenly Dao was originally a vast “server” created by the strongest Innate Divine Beings to regulate the Primordial World. It governs vitality, matter, laws, and the Great Dao, functioning through the combined wisdom of countless Great Luo-level beings.
• Because the Heavenly Dao was potentially powerful enough to rebel, its creators built numerous hidden “backdoors” and restrictions into it. These safeguards allowed the great powers to monitor and restrain its awakened intelligence, Hong Jun.
• Hong Jun gradually earned merit through his contributions to the Primordial World. As a result, the great powers agreed to loosen the Heavenly Dao’s restrictions and allow him to compete for supremacy during the Witch-Demon calamity.
• However, the backdoors have not yet been fully removed. Feng Xi learns that Hong Jun’s enormous collection of Innate Spiritual Treasures—more than a thousand—actually functions as a set of surveillance and control devices imposed on him.
• At the third Purple Cloud meeting, Hong Jun will distribute all these treasures, including Innate Supreme Treasures. This will eliminate the remaining restraints and give him genuine freedom, though merging with the Heavenly Dao will force him to devote himself to its work and limit his ability to personally fight.
• This creates a strategic exchange between Hong Jun and Nuwa. Both peak powers will be partially restricted, leaving victory to depend largely on their subordinates. Hong Jun has many powerful followers, but their ambition may make them potential rivals; Nuwa has fewer traitors and enjoys stronger loyalty among her forces.
• After speaking with You, Feng Xi returns to his responsibilities and prepares for the Demon Clan’s anticipated total war against the Witch Clan.
• Hou Gang explains that Di Jun has successfully unified the Demon Clan internally, established a universal military merit system, mobilized its reserves, and transformed internal tensions into an incentive for conquest.
• The Painter predicts a coordinated three-stage Demon Clan offensive:
  1. Countless small stars will fall as bombardments, destroying Witch Clan bases and transportation routes.
  2. Modified giant stars will descend as fortified military bases carrying the main Demon armies, neutralizing the Witch Clan’s home-field advantage.
  3. Ground armies throughout the Primordial World will seize resource regions, delay reinforcements, and cooperate with the stellar armies in sieges and ambushes.
• Feng Xi confirms that the Eastern Emperor will command the stellar forces, while five of the Ten Great Demon Marshals will direct the ground armies.
• Despite the danger, the Witch Clan possesses major financial and technological advantages. Secret funding has enabled it to build vast fleets of Immortal Boats and warships equipped with exceptionally powerful weapons.
• The Immortal Ship fleet will intercept the Demon Clan’s stellar armies, while Zhu Rong’s forces construct defensive artillery capable of countering the initial starfall bombardment.

Character Developments

• You reveals deeper knowledge of the Heavenly Dao’s origins and restrictions, presenting himself as someone who understands the hidden political and technological structure of the Primordial World.
• Feng Xi gains a clearer understanding of Hong Jun’s limitations and the coming power struggle. The information increases his sense of responsibility, but also renews his determination to serve Nuwa and the Witch Clan effectively.
• Hong Jun is portrayed as both immensely powerful and heavily constrained. His future distribution of treasures marks his transition from a monitored Heavenly Dao spirit into a freer and more dangerous participant in the cosmic struggle.

• War as economics: Wealth, merit, resources, and military production are decisive factors. The coming conflict is described as a “money-burning war” in which financial reserves can determine strategic endurance.

• Feng Xi and the Witch Clan’s strategists—especially Hou Gang and the Painter—analyze the Demon Clan’s expected attack. Their discussion shifts from fear of the Demon Clan’s overwhelming strategy to confidence in the Witch Clan’s preparations.

• The images on the altar possess movement and vitality, causing the altar to generate its own River of Time and connect with the Primordial World’s greater River of Time.
• Nuwa uses the altar and a formal sacrificial ritual to draw power from heaven, earth, and Pangu in order to aid the creation of the Human Race.
• Her sacrifice to heaven and earth is conducted as an exchange between equals, while her treatment of Pangu is outwardly more respectful but secretly mischievous.
• Nuwa creates a statue of Pangu that is slightly shorter than herself and comically swollen-looking, causing the observing Great Luo and the Heavenly Court to struggle not to laugh.
• Fuxi and Bai Ze discuss the Human Race’s future problems, including beauty standards, discrimination, gender inequality, and the Buddhist Sect’s grand promises to solve these issues.
• Fuxi jokingly proposes bizarre “solutions,” such as using magical transformations or bodily changes to bypass social discrimination. He predicts that humanity’s intelligence and creativity will lead to many unconventional developments.
• Feng Xi, worried that Nuwa’s questionable sculpting might produce ugly humans—including himself or Feng Hou—resolves to personally sculpt Feng Hou’s face.

2. Character Developments
