• Jiang Chuan put the Silver Dragon in his jade token, where it bit onto his Taiji Gourd and fell asleep, then went to the fifth room.

Jiang Chuan plundered and refined the remains of the Cave Heaven World, then returned home and studied the Two Energies Returning to Void Scripture. He began to suspect that Wan Daoyi’s Fourth Blade drew on the Power of Nothingness, but the chapter ended before he resolved how such a blade could evade the Heaven Illumination Technique.

• Jiang Chuan found a sealed stone box in Mountain Sea Hall and decided Chu Wan'er would need to open it safely.

• Qiuyue Bai announced that the Mountain Sea Dao Sect had been destroyed, and Jiang Chuan saw the group identify True Person Wanyue as the likely culprit.

Jiang Chuan watched everyone blame True Person Wanyue for Mountain Sea Dao Sect’s destruction, while secretly advancing his cultivation and preparing to take over Jiangdong Province. A meeting in Nandu City ended with plans to strengthen its defenses against Wanyue, leaving Jiang Chuan pleased that the supposed threat might help him obtain valuable treasures.

• Jiang Chuan read a group discussion where cultivators speculated that True Person Wanyue had destroyed Mountain Sea Dao Sect, and he stayed silent as they blamed Wanyue for his own actions.

• Qu Shi supported the plan and proposed opening the Strategic Level One Reserve Secret Vault to arm Nandu City.

• After learning the fighting might sink Jiangdong Province, Jiang Chuan vowed to kill those seeking the cave mansion and continued cultivating.

As Nandu City emptied under a Government Order, Jiang Chuan cultivated the Five Greats Wheel Calamity Scripture and formed a terrifying wheel tied to reincarnation. The wheel began turning, and Jiang Chuan awaited the fortune it would bring.

• People fled Nandu City while officials and the City Defense Army worked to maintain order, and Silver Fox played games as the other artifact spirits slept in Jiang Chuan's room.
• Jiang Chuan evolved a starry sky in his dantian, then spoke words that made it decay and explode into powers of destruction, death, and finality.
• Jiang Chuan suppressed those powers with his blood vitality until they became a blackish-gray mass of qi occupying over half his dantian.
• Jiang Chuan circulated the scripture again, transforming the qi into five-colored immortal flames that produced a translucent wheel bearing an unknown script.
• Jiang Chuan glimpsed the wheel's power over reincarnation and realized it held only half the scripture; the wheel began to turn as he anticipated a new fortune.

Jiang Chuan completed a layer of the Five Greats Wheel Calamity Scripture and received a rare seven-colored fruit that connected his divine palaces to distant worlds. He realized the Heavenly Connection Technique might let him draw power from those worlds, then Meng Nanxi arrived at his window.

• Jiang Chuan explained to Silver Fox that the Five Greats Wheel Calamity Scripture required a powerful physical body to suppress its destructive power.
