Jiang Ping An trained for the Hundred Cities Body Cultivator War and was summoned by Guan Hong, the City Lord of Star Brilliance City, on the eve of the competition. Guan Hong offered to restore Jiang Ping An’s origin and granted him official disciple status, but Jiang Ping An remained committed to the Original Rules.

• Jiang Ping An set a goal to pass the first two rounds of the Body Cultivator War and trained to fuse the Undying Demon Bone with the Green Radiance Divine Gold.
• The day before the competition, Guan Hong summoned Jiang Ping An to the City Lord's Mansion, where Zheng Chiyan and the other participants were gathered.
• Guan Hong offered to restore Jiang Ping An’s origin if he passed the first two rounds, but Jiang Ping An refused and explained that he wanted to continue cultivating the Original Rules.
• Guan Hong promised Jiang Ping An five billion Holy Land Coins for each round he passed and made him an official disciple of Star Brilliance City.
• Guan Hong told the five participants to exchange pointers and look after one another because the competition might include team battles.

Jiang Ping An entered the Hundred Cities Body Cultivator War and learned that the first round would judge cities by their teams’ combined beast-hunting points. As the contestants headed to the battlefield, Zheng Chiyan warned his Star Brilliance City teammates not to hold him back.

• Zheng Chiyan ordered the four other Star Brilliance City contestants to follow his lead, then left to cultivate.
• Jiang Ping An entered the competition room and met Lin Man, Yue Qianfeng, and Wu Qiong on the summit.

• The Deputy Hall Master explained that the team-based round was intended to select cities with strong overall cultivation, not just individual prodigies.
• Zheng Chiyan told Jiang Ping An and the other teammates not to hold him back, then flew toward the battlefield.

The group battle began, and Zheng Chiyan led Star Brilliance City’s team against swarms of Lower Lord God Level Insectoid Race beasts. Zheng Chiyan and Jiang Ping An showed their strength, but Star Brilliance City’s chance of advancing still depended largely on Zheng Chiyan.

• Zheng Chiyan chose jagged peaks as Star Brilliance City’s team’s fighting ground and told the others to sacrifice themselves if needed to help him advance.

• Jiang Ping An used Limitless Power to absorb natural energy and sustain his fighting as the team battled the seemingly endless insects.
• Zheng Chiyan fought with overwhelming strength, inspiring Lin Man, Yue Qianfeng, and the others to go all out.
• Guan Hong watched the rankings and worried that Star Brilliance City’s advancement rested on Zheng Chiyan, since Jiang Ping An could help but was unlikely to lead the team to victory.

As Star Brilliance City’s exhausted team neared elimination, Jiang Ping An revealed a trump card that unleashed green bone spikes across the battlefield. His attack devastated and weakened the insect swarm, sending the city’s ranking sharply upward, though the chapter left the outcome of the assessment undecided.

• With half an hour remaining and Star Brilliance City still outside the top twenty percent, Zheng Chiyan prepared to have Lin Man, Wu Qiong, and Yue Qianfeng sacrifice themselves to improve their ranking.
• Jiang Ping An stopped them and said he had a trump card that might turn the tide, then drew the nearby insects away toward a mountain peak.
• As insects swarmed over Jiang Ping An, green bone spikes burst from the swarm, pierced the insects, and multiplied.
• Jiang Ping An made the bone spikes explode, killing insects and causing Star Brilliance City’s points and ranking to surge.
• The scattered green spikes spread across the battlefield, where their energy weakened and rotted nearby insects, leaving Lin Man, Yue Qianfeng, and Wu Qiong astonished.

Jiang Ping An used his Green Radiance Divine Gold-infused bones to unleash Ghost Magic Power, weakening the insects and giving Zheng Chiyan’s team a chance to slaughter them. The City Lords recognized the dangerous power but confirmed it was allowed, while the deputy hall master warned Guan Hong not to get too close to Jiang Ping An or suppress him.

• Jiang Ping An activated the Undying Demon Bone, killing insects and creating a green energy field that weakened the survivors.
• Zheng Chiyan ordered his teammates to protect themselves with Sacred Dao Law and attack the weakened insects.

• The deputy hall master determined Jiang Ping An had fused Green Radiance Divine Gold into his bones and could resist its harmful effects through his unusual nature and talent.
• Guan Hong defended Jiang Ping An against a City Lord who called for his qualification to be revoked, and the deputy hall master ruled that his ability did not violate the rules.
• The deputy hall master told Guan Hong not to get too close to Jiang Ping An or suppress him, recalling the prophecy that he faced certain death yet might bring great fortune to the Dao Emperor Divine Domain.

Jiang Ping An helped Star Brilliance City pass the first competition, then began the second round, a race up a mountain covered in Lunar Blood Ice. As the other Body Cultivators struggled against the ice and gravity, Jiang Ping An discovered that the ice barely affected him.

• Jiang Ping An and Star Brilliance City’s team survived the first competition, finishing thirty-first and qualifying for the second round.
• The Deputy Hall Master announced that the remaining disciples would climb the mountain within three hours, despite its Lunar Blood Ice and increasing gravity.
• Yue Qianfeng, Lin Man, and Zheng Chiyan struggled as the ice slowed their blood and qi, so the disciples hurried up the steps.
• Jiang Ping An followed the crowd at an unhurried pace and noticed that Lunar Blood Ice had little effect on him.

Jiang Ping An climbed the Lunar Blood Ice stairs while secretly absorbing their Extreme Yin Power, leaving him far less affected than the other contestants. As the assessment thinned the field, he continued toward the summit and focused on comprehending the Original Rules.

• Jiang Ping An discovered that his Limitless Dao Body absorbed the Lunar Blood Ice's power, then slowed his progress to avoid appearing exceptional.
• A contestant fell when the ice froze his blood and meridians, while the remaining climbers struggled against the increasingly powerful gravity.
• Jiang Ping An accidentally moved ahead of the crowd, pretended to freeze, and resumed climbing after the other contestants passed him.
• The Vice Hall Master explained that the difficult assessment prepared selected Body Cultivators for a special mission at the front lines.
• Lin Man and Wu Qiong froze into crimson ice blocks, and after two hours only Jiang Ping An and Zheng Chiyan remained from Star Brilliance City.
• Jiang Ping An passed frozen contestants while pretending to struggle, then focused on comprehending the Original Rules.

Jiang Ping An reached the summit just before time ran out, advancing to the final round alongside eleven other disciples. After drawing Zheng Chiyan as his opponent, Jiang Ping An conceded, choosing to avoid attention and conflict rather than pursue greater rewards.

• A Giant Spirit Clan prodigy reached the summit first, and Zheng Chiyan later became the seventh disciple to pass the assessment.
• Jiang Ping An crawled up the final step moments before the deadline, and the Vice Hall Master announced that twelve disciples had advanced.
• The Deputy Hall Master explained that the final round would be duels determined by drawing lots, with only the last three contestants advancing.
• Jiang Ping An and Zheng Chiyan drew matching lots, making them opponents.
• Jiang Ping An conceded to Zheng Chiyan, reasoning that victory could attract the resentment of powerful figures and cause trouble for him.

After advancing from the body cultivator tournament, Jiang Ping An collected his rewards and spent heavily on a book to help him study the Future Scripture. A month later, Guan Hong summoned him to the City Lord’s Mansion, leaving Jiang Ping An uneasy about what awaited him.

• The Deputy Hall Master added Jiang Ping An to the Spirit-Severing Cold Sea mission despite Guan Hong’s doubts about his strength.
• Jiang Ping An checked his rewards, then resolved to focus on cultivation and learn the first layer of the Future Scripture before undertaking a Holy Land mission.
• Finding the Future Scripture too difficult, Jiang Ping An bought Complete Basics of Time Divine Runes for thirteen billion Holy Land Coins and began studying it.
• A month later, Guan Hong contacted Jiang Ping An and asked him to come to his residence, so Jiang Ping An sent a projection to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Jiang Ping An learned that he had been chosen for a dangerous expedition into the Spirit-Severing Cold Sea to investigate a suspected Origin Heavenly Dragon ruin. Though he questioned the order and its risks, he agreed to go after Guan Hong explained the mission and promised a reward upon his return.

• Guan Hong told Jiang Ping An that the Deputy Hall Master had specifically selected him to join an expedition into the Spirit-Severing Cold Sea.
• Guan Hong explained that the mission was to investigate a seabed ruin suspected to contain an Origin Heavenly Dragon and that disciples from the Four Great Divine Halls would explore it in batches.
• Jiang Ping An learned that the Sacred Land restricted powerful deities from entering the sea and had assigned Lord Gods to explore the ruins to avert conflict among the Divine Halls.
• Guan Hong sent information to Jiang Ping An's Identity Token and promised thirty billion Holy Land Coins and three free True God's lectures after his return, and Jiang Ping An agreed to the mission.

Jiang Ping An spent years deciphering the first layer of the Future Scripture before constructing its time imprint. The imprint revealed his future self suffering from a mysterious affliction, but he feared that trying to prevent it would alter the timeline, so he set the vision aside and decided to rest and prepare for the relic mission.

• Guan Hong told Jiang Ping An that his expedition into the Origin Heavenly Dragon relic would begin in twenty-five years, giving him time to cultivate.
• Jiang Ping An devoted himself to the Future Scripture and paid divine-rune shops to analyze its difficult runes, spending most of his savings and selling two True God courses for more funds.
• With three years left before his expedition, Jiang Ping An comprehended the scripture's first layer and began constructing a time imprint using Time Divine Runes.
• Jiang Ping An completed the imprint and saw his future self collapsed in agony, covered in strange green patterns, before the Wall of Time shattered.
• Jiang Ping An remembered that changing the timeline could bring terrible punishment, so he refused to act on the vision and planned to rest and buy life-saving items.

Jiang Ping An prepared for a dangerous mission to the Origin Heavenly Dragon Ruins, where rival divine halls had caused deadly casualties. He joined the assembled team despite doubts about his qualifications, and the chapter ended as he assessed Su Jin’s emotion-influencing technique.

• Jiang Ping An spent nearly all his remaining Holy Land Coins on pills and Mystic Treasures, then resumed comprehending the Original Rules.
• Guan Hong summoned Jiang Ping An and Zheng Chiyan to join a mission to the Origin Heavenly Dragon Ruins and warned them that rival divine halls posed the greatest danger.
• Guan Hong explained that the ruins held the Origin Heavenly Dragon’s bones and rare treasures, while Curse Seals could prevent the dead from being resurrected.
• Jiang Ping An and Zheng Chiyan entered a room to meet the other eight members of their team, including the Hundred Cities Body Cultivator War winner Yue Tianqing and Soul Cultivator Su Jin.
• Yue Tianqing questioned Jiang Ping An’s qualifications, but Su Jin used her Mental Power to ease the team’s hostility toward him.
• Jiang Ping An recognized that Su Jin’s technique influenced emotions and judged that his Soul Disorder Art worked more effectively and subtly.

Jiang Ping An joined Su Jin and Yue Tianqing’s team as they descended into the Spirit-Severing Cold Sea to search the Origin Heavenly Dragon’s ruins. After Yue Tianqing killed an Ice Ridge Shark, a warning led the group to discover a large swarm of exotic beasts approaching.

• Yue Tianqing and Su Jin explained the mission and instructed the team to obey their orders and prioritize survival.
• Su Jin and Yue Tianqing led the group through a Teleportation Array to the Spirit-Severing Cold Sea, where they received a route map to the ruins.
• The team entered the black seawater and discovered that it rapidly drained their divine power, while Jiang Ping An’s Primordial Qi remained unaffected.
• Su Jin sensed an approaching Ice Ridge Shark, and Yue Tianqing smashed its head with a punch and stored its body.
• An urgent warning alerted the group to a swarm of Ice Ridge Sharks and Cold Mist Pythons, including several mid-level Lord God creatures, rushing toward them.

The Spirit Evolution Divine Hall’s group entered the ancient ruins after Su Jin calmed a manipulated horde of Fierce Beasts and discovered Jiang Ping An’s concealed Soul Cultivation. Inside the ruins, they encountered a seductive woman whose eyes Su Jin warned them not to look at.

• Su Jin used her Soul Force to calm the approaching Fierce Beasts and deduced that someone had deliberately driven them toward the group.
• Su Jin recognized that Jiang Ping An had used the Soul Disorder Art to make the others overlook him, and he agreed to fight alongside the team unless his life was at risk.
• Yue Tianqing led the group through the fissure into the ruins, where they found ice-buried buildings, ancient Demon Race miasma, and traces of red moss.
• A seductive woman appeared ahead and greeted the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall group, and Su Jin shouted for everyone not to look into her eyes.

Chu Meiyan used her bewitchment and Purple Divine Lamp to trap the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall members, but Jiang Ping An broke free and seized the lamp. Chu Meiyan escaped, and the group hurried onward after realizing the other divine halls might have found a treasure.

• Chu Meiyan bewitched most of the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall members and attacked Su Jin, but Su Jin used her zither to weaken the spell.
• Chu Meiyan trapped the group inside her Purple Divine Lamp and ordered Jiang Ping An to hold them back.
• Jiang Ping An pretended to remain under Chu Meiyan's control, then struck her, took the lamp, and freed the nine trapped members.
• Chu Meiyan accused Su Jin and Jiang Ping An of setting her up, reformed her body, and escaped with a Teleportation Talisman.
• Jiang Ping An credited Su Jin with the plan, and the others praised her while she silently wondered how she had received the credit.
• Yue Tianqing produced a Flying Boat, and the group hurried toward the suspected treasure before the other divine halls could claim it.

The Spirit Evolution Divine Hall arrived at a frozen white giant ape and a bone axe containing powerful primal energy, but Xue Geng of the Radiant Light Divine Hall ordered an attack rather than yield the treasure. Yue Tianqing fought Xue Geng as the halls clashed, while Jiang Ping An was badly struck by a Radiant Light Divine Hall cultivator.

• Jiang Ping An gave the purple divine lamp to Su Jin as the group flew deeper into the ruins.
• Su Jin and the others found Chu Meiyan and the Radiant Light Divine Hall attacking the ice that held a white giant ape and its bone axe.
• Yue Tianqing recognized primal power in the axe, while Jiang Ping An sensed it could represent a higher evolution of his own powers.
• Xue Geng ordered the Radiant Light Divine Hall to kill the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall, while Chu Meiyan refused to join the attack and settled for half the ape's remains.
• Yue Tianqing charged Xue Geng, and the two sides began fighting around them.
• A bald Radiant Light Divine Hall cultivator struck Jiang Ping An with a meteor hammer, sending him into the ice and twisting the bones in his palm.

Jiang Ping An fought a powerful Radiant Light Divine Hall disciple while concealing his true strength as the two halls clashed over the frozen white giant ape and its treasures. When the Radiant Light Divine Hall donned high-grade armor and battered the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall's barrier, Jiang Ping An privately offered Su Jin a way to retreat safely without losing face.

• Jiang Ping An blocked a bald Radiant Light Divine Hall powerhouse's meteor hammers with his fists, using each injury to temper and adapt his body while pretending to be an ordinary elite disciple.
• The Spirit Evolution Divine Hall and Radiant Light Divine Hall fought while the Star Dou Divine Hall focused on freeing the white giant ape from the ice, and Chu Meiyan watched from the sidelines.
• Xue Geng called for the Radiant Light Divine Hall disciples to wear their high-grade armor, forcing Su Jin to protect the Spirit Evolution Divine Hall behind the Beast Blood Burning Lamp's barrier.
• The armored Radiant Light Divine Hall disciples attacked the barrier and taunted their opponents, leaving Su Jin torn between retreating and fighting for the treasures.
• Jiang Ping An sent Su Jin a Divine Sense Transmission, asking whether she would try his way to retreat safely without losing face.

Jiang Ping An persuaded Su Jin to awaken the supposedly dead White Giant Ape so the divine halls would retreat, then hid nearby to seize its Bone Axe. The ape awoke as a Two-Tribulation Void God, drove everyone away, and left Jiang Ping An alone with his dangerous prize.

• Jiang Ping An told Su Jin that the White Giant Ape was asleep and suggested that waking it would give the divine halls a reason to retreat without losing face.
• After Yue Tianqing agreed, Su Jin struck the ape with a Soul Force spear, and Jiang Ping An hid his true body in a Storage Bag in the ice.
• The White Giant Ape awoke, revealed itself as a Two-Tribulation Void God, and shattered the ice with its roar.
• Chu Meiyan teleported the Star Dou Divine Hall away, while the Radiant Light Divine Hall and Spirit Evolution Divine Hall fled on their vessels.
• Jiang Ping An emerged from the hidden Storage Bag and prepared to take the Bone Axe from the awakened ape.
