Long Si sent Xi Ruiya, accompanied by Miao Yuan and Miao Shan, to capture the newly advanced Lord of Infinity, while Wan Gu Yi and his allies resolved to make a final effort to aid Hu Qi. When Wan Gu Yi found Hu Qi in the Void Sea, Hu Qi revealed power beyond the Dao Fruit Realm, healed the three hidden Dao Lords from afar, and declared that he would soon bring out the True Spirit Gate to end everything.

Hu Qi used the Origin Eye of Delusion to cleanse the True Spirit Gate and rip it from the Void Sea, provoking Long Si as he struck. Across the Origin Realm, Yao Yue, Pan, and the other Dao Lords attacked the Void Creatures to buy Hu Qi time, while Long Si’s palm descended upon him.

• Hu Qi failed to move the True Spirit Gate by force, then used the Origin Eye of Delusion to burn away its black corruption.

Unsure whether Long Si could be trusted, Hu Qi sealed him away and used the Origin Eye of Delusion to examine the True Spirit Gate for a safer way forward.

• Long Si revealed that the True World contained the true Spirit Realm and that countless lower dimensions formed and vanished beneath it.
• Long Si described the True Spirit level as a realm beyond transcendence, where beings became unique, reality-shaping existences that could not be completely killed.
• Long Si admitted he could not explain why Hu Qi could not be killed, and Hu Qi connected his survival to the Cosmic Coiling Serpent's Eternal Ring talent.
• Long Si warned that ascending dimensions without his help would lead to death because the True World rejected beings from lower dimensions, and he claimed he could help Hu Qi bypass that restriction.
• Long Si said the Source Calamity could not be destroyed and that revealing more might alert the Void Sea Origin; Hu Qi then sealed him away.
• Hu Qi considered the risk of entering the True World and used the Origin Eye of Delusion to examine the True Spirit Gate.

Hu Qi purified the True Spirit Gate, temporarily restoring the Origin Realm and Sea of Sumeru, then analyzed the gate to learn how to ascend to the True World. He discovered that passage required True Essence, which his dimension lacked, and considered taking it from Long Si.

• Hu Qi used the Infinite Dao Fruit to strengthen the Origin Eye of Delusion and remove the black substance from the True Spirit Gate.
• The Boundary Tower emitted golden light that revived the Origin Realm’s will, weakened the Void Creatures, and drove them from the Sea of Sumeru.

• Hu Qi finished purifying the gate but saw that Source Calamity continued to spread from its cracks, and he refused the merit, fortune, and ruler’s seal offered by the dimension.
• Hu Qi analyzed the True Spirit Gate and learned that reaching the True World required True Essence, then wondered whether he could take Long Si’s essence and merge it into himself.

• Yao Yue confirmed Gong Shu’s broken agreement, and Hu Qi told the remaining Dao Lords that he had summoned them for two matters.

Hu Qi explained that he had only temporarily suppressed the Source Calamity and planned to leave the dimension to pursue transcendence. After studying the Dao Lords’ Great Daos and finding he still could not deduce a method to seize true characteristics, he entered the Void Sea to hunt Void Creatures and gather Modification Points.

• Hu Qi revealed that the Source Calamity would remain dormant for ten epochs unless the True Spirit Gate could be sealed, and told the Dao Lords he intended to leave the dimension.
• Wan Gu Yi said little was known about transcendence, while Hu Qi asked the Dao Lords to manifest their Great Daos and analyzed them with the Origin Eye of Delusion.
• Hu Qi healed the Dao Lords before they departed, then found that the Scarlet Panel would not modify a secret art for seizing true characteristics.
• Hu Qi left the Boundary Tower and entered the Void Sea, where he raised the Black Spirit Banner and unleashed its incomplete true pattern against the remaining Void Creatures.

Hu Qi refined the Void Sea with the Black Spirit Banner, destroying its Void Creatures and restoring much of the artifact while earning billions of Modification Points. He created Heaven Seizing Technique 2.0 to plunder True Essence, then spent ten billion years refining the banner as the worlds recovered from the Source Calamity; the chapter ended with him declaring the work complete.

• Hu Qi postponed attempting to seize Long Si's True Essence until he had fully restored and refined the Black Spirit Banner.
• Ten billion years passed as life recovered across the Origin Realm and Sea of Sumeru, and Hu Qi finally announced that his work was complete.

Hu Qi learned from Long Si that his Black Spirit Banner was a True Artifact, then used its power to seize and absorb Long Si’s True Essence. After ascending through the True Spirit Gate, he left the Dao Lords a warning about the need for True Essence and the Heaven Seizing Technique, giving them a chance to seek the True World.

• Hu Qi opened the True Spirit Gate despite the dense Source Calamity power and entered the passage beyond it.
• The Dao Lords read Hu Qi’s message about the True World, True Essence, and his latest Heaven Seizing Technique, then bowed toward the closed gate.

Hu Qi crossed the passage into the True World, where its rules began erasing him, and entered the Netherworld to reincarnate in a new body. He awoke as a human fetus beside a sibling and began absorbing the vital energy and bloodline powers around him.

• Hu Qi continued through the passage with the Black Spirit Banner, enduring intensifying Source Calamity power until he reached the light leading to the True World.
• As Hu Qi entered the True World, the words "Lord of Infinity" faded from the True Spirit Gate, and Wan Gu Yi and the other Dao Lords wondered whether Hu Qi had succeeded.
• Hu Qi discovered that the True World's rules were erasing his body, so he entered the Mind Realm and passed through twelve layers to reach the Netherworld's reincarnation core.

• Hu Qi withdrew his senses and absorbed Innate Vital Energy and spirituality, while refining the Bloodline Powers around him.

Hu Qi was born as a twin in Fengxi Village, where the village priest judged him a powerless Mortal Body while his sister displayed extraordinary Bone Patterns. As Feng Jiao and Ayun prepared to kill Hu Qi, azure patterns suddenly appeared across his face.

• The Giant Eye told the thousand-armed figure that a Son of Origin Calamity had perished and that Hu Qi had stolen its True Essence, then asked him to find and kill Hu Qi.
• Over several months, Hu Qi developed in the womb, learned fragments about the Great Wilderness, and nourished his mother while growing stronger.
• When the twins were born, Hu Qi kicked his sister aside and emerged first; the Old Woman found Bone Patterns on the girl but detected no Bloodline Power in Hu Qi.
• Feng Jiao and Ayun learned that their daughter was a gifted child and Hu Qi was a Mortal Body, then agreed he should be killed because he could not survive in the Great Wilderness.
• As Feng Jiao held Hu Qi, azure patterns appeared across the infant's face.
