The World Suppressing Cauldron sent invisible ripples across the Barbarian Domain, bringing a refreshing sensation that helped Xia Yuan let go of his worries about being surpassed by younger generations. As Chu He placed Demon Lord Guang Lian in the Steamer Hell, the Cauldron’s renewed surge caused the indistinct forebears in Xia Yuan’s vision to grow clear again.

• The World Suppressing Cauldron trembled more strongly after Chu He placed Guang Lian in the Steamer Hell, and the forebears in Xia Yuan’s consciousness became clear again.

Xia Yuan was overwhelmed by the forebears’ sorrow and glimpsed a vision of an ancient catastrophe, while learning that the Human Clan faced grave danger amid turmoil across the myriad realms. In Kindling World, the clan’s preparations for survival continued until a star on the darkened chart lit up and the world’s eternal light began to flicker.

• A star on the chart lit up, and Kindling World’s light began to flicker as several middle-aged men opened their eyes.

An upheaval shook the Kindling World, and Human Clan leaders traced it to the Star Gazing Hall. They saw that someone had encountered the Savage Lord’s spirit and begun his trial, leaving them hopeful that other ancestors’ inheritances might also appear.

• The leaders recognized the Savage Lord’s spirit was offering a trial and celebrated the prospect of his inheritance aiding the Human Clan.
• The leaders continued observing the vision, seeking to learn who had encountered the Savage Lord’s spirit.

As Xia Yuan absorbed power from the World Suppressing Cauldron, Heavenly Clan Bai Ju sensed an aura capable of destroying it and panicked. It pleaded with Chu He for help, warning that its destruction would bring danger to him too.

• Powerhouses across the Kindling World opened their eyes in silence, confused by what they had experienced.
• Chu He sensed powerful forces converging nearby and realized Xia Yuan had drawn them through his absorption of power released by the World Suppressing Cauldron.
• The World Suppressing Cauldron trembled as Heavenly Clan Bai Ju's origin drained away and it struggled in terror.
• Chu He concluded that Bai Ju's former confidence came from believing he could not truly kill it.
• Bai Ju threatened Chu He and begged him to intervene, insisting its destruction would endanger Chu as well.

Chu He watched Xia Yuan’s strange encounter with a powerful predecessor while keeping his distance, then severed his connection to Xia Yuan. As Xia Yuan received the words “Kindling Flame,” a coffin’s presence threatened the predecessor, and Heavenly Clan Bai Ju’s terror intensified, leaving Chu He wondering whether he had suppressed Xia Yuan’s destined rise.

• Chu He ignored Heavenly Clan Bai Ju’s calls for help, roasted a sheep, and wondered what powerful existence Xia Yuan had encountered.
• Chu He chose not to investigate and cut off his connection to Xia Yuan to avoid being drawn in.
• Xia Yuan witnessed a towering Human Clan predecessor and received the words “Kindling Flame” into his consciousness.
• A phantom coffin questioned Xia Yuan, but the examination was cut off before it reached the years after he entered the Secret Realm gravely wounded.
• Xia Yuan saw the predecessor struggle to turn around as a greedy black phantom waited nearby, and he feared the predecessor would be harmed.
• Heavenly Clan Bai Ju grew even more terrified, while Chu He wondered if his presence had held Xia Yuan back from fulfilling his destiny.

Chu He watched Heavenly Clan Bai Ju near collapse inside the World Suppressing Cauldron, while Xia Yuan struggled to warn him that he was human and wanted to serve the Human Clan. Bai Ju unleashed a mysterious power that nearly stirred the starry sky of all realms, leaving Chu He with a sudden sense of unease and questions about the Celestial Clan.

• Chu He speculated that Xia Yuan’s rise might come at the cost of the Xia Clan and the Barbarian Domain, then dismissed the thought and continued watching.
• As its origin drained away, Heavenly Clan Bai Ju’s fear weakened, while Xia Yuan grew urgent and tried to tell the towering figure that he was human and wanted to help the Human Clan.
• Bai Ju resolved to escape at any cost, silently vowing revenge on Chu He and the Human Clan as it prepared to risk its existence.
• Bai Ju’s consciousness exploded into a character bearing the arcane will of the Origin Great Dao, and the World Suppressing Cauldron trembled as its remaining power was cut off.
• Chu He rose as the change nearly stirred the starry sky of all realms, then wondered why he had sensed danger only at the last moment and concluded that the Celestial Clan was deeply troubling.

Xia Yuan’s consciousness left the collapsing world after the World Suppressing Cauldron’s aura was cut off, while the towering Senior was left wounded and unable to continue his mission. In the Kindling World, the Human Clan’s experts learned that the Celestial Clan might target them and decided to conceal what they had discovered.

• Xia Yuan realized his consciousness was retreating from the collapsing world and felt guilty that he might have ruined the towering Senior’s plans.
• The black shadow vanished after sensing a familiar aura, and the towering Senior murmured, “Heaven’s Scheme?!”
• Xia Yuan’s consciousness detached as he saw the wounded Senior’s dejected figure fade from view.
• The Human Clan experts in the Star Gazing Hall opened their eyes, and Senior Blade’s companions asked what he had learned.
• A Human Clan expert relayed the warning to beware the Celestial Clan and the Savage Lord, alarming the gathered experts.
• The ancient Human Clan leaders ordered everyone to act as though nothing had happened and dismissed the gathering.

Xia Yuan resolved to discover the answer and fulfill the senior’s regrets, while Bai Ju’s little beast form was spat out by the World Suppressing Cauldron. Trapped and powerless, Bai Ju considered Little Turtle a valuable resource and a possible route to escape, but Little Turtle mistook its trembling for shyness.

• Xia Yuan emerged safely, resolved to find the answer and make up for the senior’s regrets, and renewed the determination he had felt in his youth.
• The World Suppressing Cauldron rejected Bai Ju’s little white beast form, which recognized the cauldron and realized events had gone wrong.
• Little Turtle circled Bai Ju and poked it, while Bai Ju endured the attention because the Barbarian Domain suppressed its strength.
• Bai Ju assessed the tower, Willow Tree, goldfish, and Little Turtle, deciding that Little Turtle was a treasure-filled tonic and might help it escape.
• Bai Ju struggled to approach Little Turtle humbly, and Little Turtle mistook its trembling resentment for shyness like that of the fish and Willow Tree.

Little Beast Baiju realized Chu He had been behind its failed escape and begged for mercy, mistaking him for someone seeking to seize Origin Heaven. Chu He instead questioned it about the Celestial Clan and learned that even its weakest members were born with Origin-level power.

• Little Beast Baiju suspected Chu He had caused the destructive force it sensed and turned to find him watching nearby.
• Little Beast Baiju, convinced Chu He intended to seize Origin Heaven, offered to lead him to other Celestials in exchange for a chance to live.
• Chu He examined the Baiju character in the World Suppressing Cauldron and realized it was probably the so-called Origin Heaven.
• Chu He asked Little Beast Baiju about the Celestial Clan, and it said the clan had fewer than ten thousand members, though it did not know the exact number.
• Little Beast Baiju explained that every Celestial was born with Origin-level power, and Chu He concluded that it was a weak junior by its clan's standards.

Little Beast Baiju explained how losing its Celestial Clan identity had changed the way it grew stronger, while Chu He questioned it about the Celestial Clan’s role in the conflict across the realms. As Baiju revealed what it knew, Chu He noticed the creature’s behavior changing and began to question whether merging with the character inside the World Suppressing Cauldron was safe.

• Little Beast Baiju said it had lost its Celestial Clan identity and now sought treasures because its strength could improve like an ordinary being’s.
• Chu He kicked Baiju against the World Suppressing Cauldron, then asked whether the Celestial Clan had prepared for the growing conflict across the realms.
• Baiju said the Celestial Clan usually watched from the sidelines but that an unconfirmed report might change its choice this time.
• When Chu He pressed it for the deeper reason behind the Celestial Clan’s neutrality, Baiju offered to take him to someone who might know.
• Chu He questioned Baiju further, and Baiju answered under pressure until Chu He noticed that its behavior was changing.
• Chu He connected the change to legends about merging with the Dao and reconsidered merging the character inside the World Suppressing Cauldron into himself.

After Little Beast Baiju explained the myriad realms and their limits, Chu He tested his power with two chess pieces, bringing two worlds toward collision. At the last moment, Chu He smiled, and the worlds fused peacefully above the Barbarian Domain, revealing the Great Dao and the rules of a newborn world.

• Little Beast Baiju spent three days and nights telling Chu He about the myriad realms, their factions, powerful figures, and limits on what they could withstand.
• Chu He concluded that his supreme treasures and the Myriad Worlds Tower let him travel freely and remain safe from stronger forces in weaker realms.
• Chu He moved a finger, sending two black and white chess pieces down and drawing two worlds toward a catastrophic collision.
• Little Turtle clutched Chu He's trouser leg, the goldfish thrashed in its tank, Little Beast Baiju sensed a will to slay Heaven, and the Willow Tree reached toward Chu He as the Barbarian Domain fell under an oppressive aura.
• Chu He smiled just before the worlds collided, and they fused into one without discord, lifting the oppression and revealing the Great Dao and world rules to everyone in the Barbarian Domain.

The goldfish returned to its true form after breaking through the dragon gate, while Little Turtle became captivated by Chu He's chessboard. As the coming return of taboo experts threatened his standing, Chu He ordered Little Beast Baiju to make a star chart of the Celestial Clan members it knew.

• The goldfish transformed into a divine dragon, returned to its goldfish form, and plunged back through the dragon gate, shattering it.
• Little Turtle stared at Chu He's chessboard as its black and white sides merged into chaos, while Little Beast Baiju reflected on its changed identity and instinctive deference to Chu He.
• Chu He considered how to grow stronger before taboo experts returned and decided to use Little Beast Baiju to locate useful Celestial Clan members.
• Chu He ordered Little Beast Baiju to draw a star chart marking known Celestial Clan members and specially identifying those with great strength.
• Little Beast Baiju agreed but warned Chu He that its star chart was incomplete.

Chu He studied Little Beast Baiju’s Star Chart and planned to explore other worlds after his next super sign-in in ten years. He decided to wear Baiju down, bind it with the Beast Sealing Scroll, and use it as bait while roaming among demons and the Celestial Clan.

• Chu He examined the Star Chart and concluded that Nine Realms Mountain was an isolated Great World hiding secrets, though the Celestial Clan paid it little attention.
• Chu He noted that he had signed in for 690 years and planned to cultivate for ten more years before his next super sign-in.
• Chu He considered using the Myriad Worlds Tower to travel between worlds and decided not to carry the Barbarian Domain with him unless necessary.
• Chu He watched Little Turtle harass Little Beast Baiju and planned to bind Baiju with the Beast Sealing Scroll once it was worn down.
• Chu He decided Baiju would lead the way on his future travels, helping him confront or evade demons and the Celestial Clan, while Baiju sensed that Chu He’s kind gaze boded ill.

After seven hundred years in this world, Chu He awakened from cultivation to perform his centennial super sign-in and obtained the violet-gold divine ability Prison Heaven Finger. He absorbed the technique’s vast information without difficulty, leaving his secluded cultivation poised to continue.

• Chu He spent ten years cultivating, reached the fifth layer of Eighth Turn, and stopped just short of advancing to the sixth when his centennial alarm rang.
• Chu He prepared and worshipped his increasingly spiritual Guan Gong Statue for the seventh super sign-in.
• Little Beast Baiju suspected the Guan Gong Statue was connected to an unimaginable existence and reflected on its captivity and the Celestial Clan’s silence.
• Chu He summoned the Sign-in System and used the super sign-in button, receiving the violet-gold divine ability Prison Heaven Finger.
• Chu He transferred the scroll to his hand and absorbed the technique’s enormous information into his consciousness.

After learning that the Prison Heaven Finger grew stronger by absorbing Origin Heaven from the Celestial Clan, Chu He put aside his concerns and entered secluded cultivation to break through to the sixth layer of the Eighth Turn. While the realms remained outwardly calm, Xia Yuan left a jade slip for Chu He and departed to pursue the path shown by the legacy in his consciousness.

• Chu He learned that the Prison Heaven Finger required Origin Heaven stripped from the Celestial Clan and could reach completion with 3,333 Origin Heavens.
• Chu He steadied himself against underestimating the Celestial Clan, then entered the Book Repository to break through to the sixth layer of the Eighth Turn.
• Chu He cultivated in seclusion and ignored events across Earth Star, the Ancient Era World, and the realms as hidden turmoil continued.
• Most inhabitants remained unaware of the approaching danger, while people of the Barbarian Domain searched for opportunities and believed they would shape the era.
• Xia Yuan visited while Chu He was in seclusion, left a jade slip after waiting, and departed to follow the guidance of a senior's legacy.

After ten years in seclusion, Chu He emerged with his cultivation consolidated and received a warning from Xia Yuan about an approaching calamity that could doom the Human Clan. He put the warning aside to focus on gaining strength, while Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling continued doting on the resentful Little Beast Baiju.

• Chu He left the pill cauldron, stored his treasures, and emerged from the Book Repository to greet Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling, who had both broken through.
• Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling took turns playing with Little Beast Baiju, which bitterly resented being treated like a pet by them and Little Turtle.
• Zhao Yuling gave Chu He a jade slip from Xia Yuan, who warned that a coming upheaval would bring chaos, eliminate many clans, and repeat the Human Clan's sorrowful fate.
• Chu He considered the warning, put away the jade slip, and decided to focus on becoming stronger rather than guessing at the coming trouble.
• Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling asked Chu He where they could find a little beast like Baiju, while Baiju remained unaware of their interest in it as a tonic.

Chu He gave Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling a warning about Little Beast Baiju, then traveled with them around the Barbarian Domain. Noticing how the darkness diminished the world, he called for light, and the Myriad Worlds Tower created a sun that left the domain’s people amazed.

• Chu He warned Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling that Little Beast Baiju’s kind was dangerous and promised them one each when their cultivation improved.
• Zhao Yuling rubbed Little Beast Baiju despite Chu He’s warning, and the beast escaped Lin Xueling’s loosened hold before failing to find a place to hide.
• Chu He took Zhao Yuling and Lin Xueling on trips around the Barbarian Domain and reflected on its growing spiritual vitality despite the lack of sunlight.
• Chu He said the Barbarian Domain should have light, and the Myriad Worlds Tower gathered power into a sun that illuminated the sky.
• The people of the Barbarian Domain looked up at the sun, while younger residents marveled at it and yearned to see the outside world.

Chu He visited Old Master Academy, watched over Xu Qingran and Gu Sijia as they cultivated, and considered the Celestial Clan’s preparations for the coming upheaval. After they emerged, he set out with Little Beast Baiju for the Xuan Yang Domain to find one of its relatives.

• Chu He gave Xu Qingran and Gu Sijia guidance, treasures, and Little Red Flowers, then stood guard while they cultivated in seclusion.
• Chu He checked on Earth Star and the Ancient Era World, finding no serious trouble and suspecting both were connected to an ancient past.
• Little Beast Baiju told Chu He that powerful forces, including the Celestial Clan, had long prepared for the unprecedented transformation of heaven and earth, though it knew few details.
• Chu He decided to avoid the Celestial Clan’s heavily guarded strongholds and seek out lesser Celestials instead.
• After Xu Qingran and Gu Sijia finished cultivating, Chu He and Little Beast Baiju traveled toward the Xuan Yang Domain to find Baiju’s first relative.

Chu He and Little Beast Baiju reached the outskirts of the Great World of Xuanyang, where Chu He planned to use Baiju to draw out the hidden Celestials. Before they entered, Chu He spotted a Star Alliance fleet caught in a deliberate ambush and rushed to intervene.

• Chu He observed the fortresses guarding Xuanyang and weighed how to enter the world with Little Beast Baiju, whose lost Celestial Clan identity meant the world would reject it.
• Chu He decided Baiju would have to lure out the Celestials hidden in Xuanyang, since he could not search the vast world recklessly.
• Chu He noticed that no Abyss demons had pursued them and considered why Xuanyang had avoided their attention.
• Chu He sensed the starry sky collapse around several Star Alliance ships traveling toward Xuanyang.
• Chu He recognized that the trapped fleet included a ship full of Human Clan members and concluded that the ambush was premeditated.
• Chu He flashed toward the fleet, thinking that the attackers were robbers.

The Human Clan fleet aboard the Heavenly River was ambushed by a powerful enemy whose Purple Eye attacked their souls and consciousness. Ancestor Yanshan ordered the fleet to attack regardless of casualties, leaving the experts to gamble everything while considering how to send the juniors to safety.

• The Silver Wolf reported that its defenses had been breached, while Human Clan experts found their consciousness trapped and attacked when they tried to investigate.
• A Purple Eye appeared in the void and broke the disciples' military formation, but the remaining experts joined forces and blocked its first attack.
• The experts realized the Purple Eye wielded Origin Realm power and feared for Ancestor Yanshan, who was holding back the enemy's Origin Realm expert.
• Ancestor Yanshan ordered the fleet to attack without regard for casualties and hold the enemy back.
• The Human Clan experts decided to risk everything and planned to send the juniors out in a spatial capsule if they could open a route to the starry sky.
