Lin Yuan passed the Black Star’s test with a strike whose power astonished the Feather Butterfly Supreme Expert and Supreme Expert Xia Qin, then sent an incarnation through the Black Gate to study a Life and Death Reincarnation guiding path. While that incarnation comprehended the rule, Lin Yuan’s Sun Primordial Spirit reached a vast Permanent Space Rift on a large alien race battlefield, where his World Breaking Source Power began accumulating at an extraordinary rate.

• The Feather Butterfly Supreme Expert used time reversal to confirm that Lin Yuan’s strike had briefly shaken the Black Star, surprising her and Supreme Expert Xia Qin.
• The black-robed man judged that Lin Yuan had passed the test, and Lin Yuan sent an incarnation through the Black Gate to avoid risking his original body or avatar.

• Lin Yuan’s Sun Primordial Spirit arrived beneath a thousand-li-wide Permanent Space Rift on the A098 Alien Race Battlefield and sensed his World Breaking Source Power accumulating at an almost exaggerated rate.

• Lin Yuan discovered that World Breaking Source Power now accumulated at one strand every ninety days beneath the Permanent Space Rift.
• Supreme Expert Xia Qin confirmed that the Black Star’s guiding paths reached the Fourth Realm and suggested renting out its twelve comprehension opportunities for one hundred million Merit Points each.

Lin Yuan learned that the Gray-Purple Gourd could produce an eighth liquid capable of transforming a Supreme Expert, and he secured it in the Mystic Yellow Secret Realm. After an aurora from Beyond the Universe destroyed a battlefield and caused mass deaths, Lin Yuan arranged for Fang Qing to be revived and watched Supreme Expert Xia Qin bring the fallen back to life.

• The Gray-Purple Gourd told Lin Yuan that its eighth liquid required a Twelfth Order body and an Inner Universe, so he stored the gourd in the Mystic Yellow Secret Realm.

• Fifty years passed as Lin Yuan's avatars comprehended the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule and Great Destruction Rule while his other selves studied other rules and secret arts.

Lin Yuan raised the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule to the Second Realm in fifty years but postponed his Eleventh Order breakthrough so he could enter the Black Star’s remaining Guidance Spaces. Meanwhile, supreme experts began dividing the aurora from Beyond the Universe, and Gu Li demanded one-fifth for Human Civilization before eight more supreme-level auras arrived.

• Lin Yuan comprehended the First Stable Reincarnation Model in the Life and Death Reincarnation Rule Guidance Space and raised the rule to the Second Realm after fifty years.

• More than a dozen supreme experts prepared to divide the purified aurora, and Gu Li demanded one-fifth for Human Civilization to account for its losses.
• Eight more supreme-level auras pierced the Time-Space Barrier and joined the gathering.

Human Civilization secured one-fifth of the aurora, and Supreme Expert Xia Qin told Lin Yuan he could study it before it was refined into an ultimate weapon.

• Supreme Experts joined forces to halt the white sheet, which unfolded to reveal a mysterious painting.

Lin Yuan learned that the white paper held an ancient Two-Dimensional World where he and more than a hundred million others had been trapped, and he began strengthening his body to survive. After reaching Witch King level, he learned of the Heavenly Gate, the only known route out of the world.

• Lin Yuan told the Six-Armed Figure that his avatar and over a hundred million experts had fallen into a Low-Dimensional Space, and the Six-Armed Figure suspected it was an ancient space created by beings close to Perfect Time Lifeforms.

• In the Main Universe, Nalan Deputy Tower Master gave Lin Yuan cultivation methods from the Two-Dimensional World and told him that the Heavenly Gate appeared every ten thousand years and could lead its opener to a higher-level world.

Lin Yuan learned that the Heavenly Gate would open in two hundred years and that only one person could reach it, prompting Main Universe experts to focus on growing stronger. He settled in Luo Chuan Gathering Place to cultivate and gather resources, while the story left him with just twenty years of the short preparation period already gone.

• Nalan Deputy Tower Master told Lin Yuan that the Heavenly Gate had last opened 9,800 years ago and would open again in two hundred years, with only one person able to reach it.

• An Ancient God, Tuoba Ancient God, and a powerful Four-Armed Man each resolved to strengthen themselves before the Heavenly Gate opened.
• Lin Yuan entered Luo Chuan Gathering Place with Pa Duo, decided to settle there, and sold White Day Fox fur and other hunting gains for witch crystals.
• Lin Yuan bought an estate, said goodbye to Pa Duo, and began cultivating; twenty years passed.

Lin Yuan remained in seclusion at Luo Chuan Gathering Place, then accepted the sixty-million-witch-crystal bounty on the Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits and tracked them into a forest. As the bandits’ compass spun without stopping, Lin Yuan closed in on their location.

• Lin Yuan declined Nalan Deputy Tower Master's invitation to join the Human Civilization foothold in Mo Lan Ancient Kingdom and resolved to cultivate in seclusion until he could advance beyond the Witch Ancestor stage.
• Lin Yuan learned that Cha Ran Gu had located the Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits, whose combined bounty had risen to sixty million witch crystals.
• Lin Yuan accepted the bounty at Blood Rain Tavern and traveled to the forest where the bandits had last been seen.
• The Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits celebrated their successful robbery of North Town Prince's treasury and credited their escape to First Brother's Bronze Compass.
• First Brother consulted the Bronze Compass for their next destination, but its needle kept spinning after more than half an hour.

Lin Yuan hunted down and killed the Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits, collecting their bounty, a huge payment, and their savings to gather the resources he needed to break through to the Witch Ancestor realm. As he searched the leader’s belongings, he found the Bronze Compass and sensed a strange aura within it.

• The Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits watched their Bronze Compass spin for an unusually long time, and their leader ordered them to split up and flee.
• Lin Yuan appeared, killed Eighteenth Brother, and revealed that he had come for the bandits’ bounty; Tenth Brother offered him ninety million witch crystals.
• Lin Yuan took the Purple Witch Crystals and killed Tenth Brother, then used a powerful inhalation to stop the remaining bandits from escaping and killed several of them.
• The rough-looking First Brother burned his Essence Blood to reach the Witch Emperor realm and fled, but Lin Yuan caught up with him and killed him after refusing his offer to serve.
• Lin Yuan counted the bounty, the Purple Witch Crystals, and the bandits’ savings, then found the Bronze Compass among the leader’s belongings and sensed a strange aura from it.

Lin Yuan killed the Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits, claimed their sixty-million-Witch-Crystal bounty, and discovered that the Bronze Compass and Blood Rain Tea carried mysterious auras that defied the Two-Dimensional World's suppression.

He planned to study the Twelve Ancient Kingdoms’ Witch Ancestor methods so he could advance further.

• Lin Yuan realized the Bronze Compass and the Blood Rain Tea Tree were likely Twelve-Star treasures suppressed by the Two-Dimensional World.
• Lin Yuan fed the Bronze Compass his blood, and it warned him that no danger had been detected, leading him to infer that it had helped the Cloud Mountain Eighteen Bandits evade threats.
• Lin Yuan concluded the compass could detect danger and point toward survival, giving him time to grow in the Two-Dimensional World.
• After five years, Lin Yuan created a Witch Emperor-level cultivation method and advanced to the Witch Emperor level, becoming invincible among Witch Emperors and comparable to native Witch Ancestors.
• Lin Yuan decided to seek out the Witch Ancestor cultivation methods preserved by the Twelve Ancient Kingdoms to help create a method of his own.
