• Su Xiaobai upgraded One-Click Training Space and unlocked [Deduce and Create], which began creating a Saint Grade Cultivation Technique in three days.

• Su Xiaobai discovered that Cultivation Technique Factors appeared behind his techniques and that lighting them amplified the techniques, with higher-grade techniques having more factors.

• Crimson Flame Great Emperor told Dao Yan the visitor sought a prodigy whose soul could help her give birth to a Soul Imperial Son, and that winning her favor could transform his future.

• An abyss-like aura suddenly spread through the gathering, and those present recognized it as that of a World-Shaking Great Emperor.

Empress Lingping used the Heavenly Machine Evolution Chart to find a soul compatible with hers, and it selected Su Xiaobai, who was fleeing through the starry sky. Though she departed with a piece of his soul, Longevity Great Emperor ordered the domain searched for the unidentified candidate.

• Six Laws Great Emperor roared in fury, killing nearby cultivators and destroying Nine Tripod Immortal City as the pupil technique’s karmic connection vanished.

Su Xiaobai entered the Martial Emperor Inheritance to evade Six Laws Great Emperor, who wanted to seize his Emperor Grade Pupil Technique. After realizing the threat, Su Xiaobai pressed on to seek the inheritance and resources, while Blood Stains the Heavens renewed his determination to compete with him for the first emperor of the era.
