He used the Feather Pen to create a karmic connection that might eventually give him a private chance to obtain the fragment, though he did not know when it would come to pass.

• Jiang Ping An consulted the Crystal Ball, which advised him to strengthen the Feather Pen and write a plausible chain of events rather than wish to obtain the Divine Soul Fragment outright.
• Jiang Ping An bought the Karma Treasure Tool from the female manager and rejected her invitation to dine, then purchased pills, Divine Weapons, and Mystic Treasures before returning home.

• After considering how to make his wish more likely to succeed, Jiang Ping An wrote that he would someday encounter the Lord of Order's Divine Soul Fragment, have a chance to obtain it, and few others would know of it.

• Jiang Ping An considered using the essence blood to escape the four Great Demons.

• Jiang Ping An sent a clone carrying the Storage Orb with the Lord of Heavenly Demons' claw tip in a different direction, and two Great Demons pursued it while the other two chased his main body.
• The two Great Demons killed the clone but claimed it had carried no relic, prompting Jiang Ping An to accuse them of hiding their prize from their companions.

• The Purple Sphere released poison that spread across hundreds of miles, corroding the land and forming a deadly barrier around Jiang Ping An.
