• Zhang Yu rejected Dao Qiankun's proposal and made his own final choice; the Daoist Canon Catalog vanished, and the sky tore open to reveal the Third Layer and further worlds.

• Dao Qiankun evaded the attacks, rose toward the virtualizing Sixth Layer, and embraced the approaching New World.

Ying Xintian sacrificed his cultivation and fortune to tear open the Sixth Layer’s sky, urging cultivators to advance without restraint before promising to return in three years. As the Heavenly Court reorganized the lower layers, the Evil Gods seized the Second Layer’s moon and Spirit Realm Network, leaving universities to defend themselves and Divine Lord Ci Ji racing to protect the sun and Zhang Yu.

• Dao Qiankun crossed the collapsing Sixth Layer as Ying Xintian faced the woman above the nine heavens and let the powers of Kunxu devour his assets and body.
• Ying Xintian tore apart the Sixth Layer’s sky, called on cultivators to break through without restraint, and promised to return in three years to take them away.

• Universities raised Spirit Realm barriers against the Evil Gods while Demon Descendants fought over uncertified breakthroughs outside Heavenly Demon University, leaving Xiong Wenwu uncertain about the future.

After the Sixth Layer vanished, Zhang Yu and the other survivors fought through the chaos as the Evil God disrupted the battlefield. Magnetic Pole arrived, defeated the uncertified attackers, and distributed certificates and instructions, leaving Zhang Yu searching for A-Zhen aboard Heaven Sword University's vessel.

• After Dao Qiankun vanished, Zhang Yu reclaimed his Dharma Treasures and joined Director Gao's group as the Sixth Layer disappeared and contact with the Heavenly Court was cut off for two years.
• Director Gao led the group through a battle against numerous uncertified cultivators, and Zhang Pianpian identified many of them as Feather Transformation Cult believers.

• When Wen Wuya asked whether Zhang Yu wanted to return with him, Zhang Yu asked where A-Zhen was and said he wanted to take her with him.

Zhang Yu reunited with Bai Zhenzhen, learned that the layers of Kunxu had been sealed and war had erupted, then broke through to the Golden Core Realm. He began cultivating Kunlun in Palm and prepared to test the newly activated Second Layer effect of Inverted Kunlun.

• Zhang Yu found that Bai Zhenzhen had regained a physical body, but she chose to remain at Heaven Sword University to guard the Seven Emotions Divine Lord's assets; they exchanged their Spirit Roots back.
• Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's teams hid together while awaiting Divine Lord Ci Ji's incarnation, but spatial barriers then sealed Layers 2 through 5 and fighting spread across the Fifth Layer.

• Zhang Yu entered the Golden Core Realm using a Purple Mansion Golden Core, greatly increasing his Dao Heart, Physical Strength, and Magical Power.
• Zhang Yu cultivated Kunlun in Palm to Level 20 and prepared to test Inverted Kunlun's newly activated Second Layer effect.

Zhang Yu advanced Kunlun in Palm and explored how it could combine with Inverted Kunlun and the Immortal Space, then joined an expedition to reclaim a factory occupied by wild Golden Cores. The school’s students quickly overwhelmed the Junior College Golden Cores, and Zhang Yu’s Astral Qi substitutes stopped Hou Feifeng, who revealed he had formed his Core himself because he could not afford a prepared one.

• Zhang Yu unlocked Inverted Kunlun’s Second Layer, discovered its gravity spheres could persist after he stopped controlling them, and advanced Kunlun in Palm to the Golden Core Realm.
• Zhang Yu used Kunlun in Palm to shrink objects inside the Immortal Space and absorb flying swords, then imagined storing charged gravity spheres there for combat.
• Divine Lord Ci Ji recruited Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, Wen Wuya, and other students to reclaim a factory held by twenty-two wild Golden Cores, promising them half the remaining supplies.
• Bai Zhenzhen scouted the factory and found the Junior College Golden Cores looting supplies while forcing captured Junior College Students to work in shifts without pay.
• The students launched a coordinated assault with flying swords, puppets, and a Formation, scattering and suppressing the defenders as Hou Feifeng fled toward the factory gates.
• Zhang Yu’s two Astral Qi substitutes defeated Hou Feifeng, who admitted he had formed his own Core because he could not afford a prepared Golden Core.

Zhang Yu returned to Ten Thousand Laws University after discovering that the Blood Moon was spreading several viruses and that chaos was worsening across Kunxu. As he began Golden Core cultivation, Divine Lord Ci Ji’s meeting revealed that the Fifth Layer was collapsing and Myriad Law City’s resources and order were under growing threat.

• Zhang Yu noticed that junior college students had been neglected and gave them anti-sleep pills, then learned that teachers had beaten one student to death for trying to escape.

• True Lord Qiyun reported that the Finance Department was defeating the Fifth Layer, violence was spreading across the Second Layer, and Myriad Law City faced rising governance costs and dwindling supplies.

Ten Thousand Laws University’s Nascent Soul cultivators divided up efforts to reclaim external campuses while Divine Lord Ci Ji deferred other crises until he finished cultivating. Zhang Yu became a graduate student and devoted his funding to cultivation, but as his Golden Core Sacred Physique reached completion, shortages and unrest worsened around him.

• Divine Lord Ci Ji assigned rogue-cultivator suppression across the external campuses, and True Lord Qing Ming and other Nascent Soul cultivators volunteered to restore logistics networks.
• The university promoted Zhang Yu to graduate student, gave him a laboratory, and directed him to raise Kunlun in Palm while Zhang Yu resolved to pursue Level 40 and advance toward the Nascent Soul Realm.
• Zhang Yu spent a month using medicines, Dao Arts, and treasures to improve his Dao Heart, Physical Strength, and Magical Power, and completed the Golden Core Sacred Physique.
• Zhang Yu learned that medicine prices were rising, supplies were dwindling, and violence and unemployment were spreading; he hired Su Yanyang to work on rebuilding external campuses.
• Zhang Pianpian told Zhang Yu that security forces had withdrawn from areas below layer 300, leaving them increasingly like slums, while Talisman Department technology and other wartime industries continued to grow.

Zhang Yu resisted distractions and devoted himself to breaking through to Nascent Soul, rapidly improving his cultivation while building passive income. After Kuang Tianqing probed him about Dao Qiankun and Reincarnation, Zhang Yu reflected on how strength could let him change the world, but resolved to focus on cultivation for now.

• Zhang Yu rejected upgrading his Dao Seeds, improving his Dharma Treasures, and taking on other work so he could concentrate on cultivation.
• Zhang Yu advanced his Dao Heart, Physical Strength, and magical power, established six Dao Foundations, and adjusted his training to keep his physical control from weakening.
• True Lord Qing Ming offered Zhang Yu's company construction projects to subcontract, adding over 150 Spirit Coins to Zhang Yu's monthly income as part of his effort to curry favor with Divine Lord Ci Ji.

• Kuang Tianqing asked Zhang Yu what he thought of Dao Qiankun, hoping to learn whether Zhang Yu knew about Dao Qiankun's plans involving Reincarnation.
• Zhang Yu considered how growing stronger had expanded his ability to protect others and influence the world, then dismissed the wider turmoil and returned to cultivation.

As the Fifth Layer fell and war spread to the Fourth, Zhang Yu advanced his Golden Core cultivation and brought three Soul Cultivator friends to safety at Ten Thousand Laws University. His attempt to keep cultivating was interrupted when Fu Ji warned that Yu Xinghan and Shi Huaiyu had clashed with someone at a construction site despite invoking Zhang Yu’s name.

• The Fifth Layer’s fighting stopped, a black canopy concealed it, and battle began to intensify in the Fourth Layer.
• Zhang Yu saw news of worsening unrest and inequality, then spent another month cultivating until his Dao Heart reached level 27 and his Physical Strength reached level 28.01.

Zhao Ruoli served as bait in a Righteous Qi Alliance plot to capture Zhang Yu, while Zhang Yu investigated the construction-site conflict and entered the expanded Dark Spirit Realm. He discovered the alliance’s vast open-source cultivation network and found that it had put a 30,000-Righteousness-Point bounty on taking him to the Kunxu Fifth Layer.

• Zhao Ruoli infiltrated the Second Layer and prepared to provoke Yu Xinghan so hidden Nascent Souls could capture Zhang Yu if he came to help.
• Zhang Pianpian told Zhang Yu that the construction workers involved in the clash rarely used the Spirit Realm, leading Fu Ji to suspect they relied on the Dark Spirit Realm.
• Zhang Yu decided to enter the Dark Spirit Realm with Fu Ji rather than abandon Yu Xinghan, Shi Huaiyu, and the others.
• Zhang Yu found the Dark Spirit Realm transformed into a vast information city filled with advertisements, open-source cultivation methods, research materials, and alliance missions.
• Fu Ji explained that users could earn Righteousness Points by completing missions, and Zhang Yu saw a 30,000-point mission to take him to the Kunxu Fifth Layer.

Zhang Yu uncovered a plot to lure him out through Yu Xinghan and assembled ten Nascent Soul True Lords to protect him. The ambush became a fierce battle in which True Lord Qing Ming defeated the attackers, but Flowing Gold True Lord escaped through the Dark Spirit Realm and revealed troubling news about the Kunlun Society and Ten Thousand Laws University's finances.

• Fu Ji and Zhang Yu met Xi Shen in the Dark Spirit Realm, learned about its plans to attract users with Righteousness Points and Military-grade Cultivation Methods, and bought intelligence showing that more than a hundred people had accepted a task to kidnap Zhang Yu.
• Zhang Yu warned Yu Xinghan that he might be targeted, recruited ten Nascent Soul True Lords, and went to the construction site to confront the attackers.
• Zhao Ruoli fought Yu Xinghan to draw Zhang Yu out, but Zhang Yu overwhelmed her until Flowing Gold True Lord and three other Nascent Soul True Lords sprang their ambush.
• True Lord Qing Ming and the other ten Nascent Soul True Lords arrived, and Qing Ming used the Northern Darkness Star Swallowing Method to overpower the ambushers and suppress their self-destruction.
• Flowing Gold True Lord's Dark Spirit Realm avatar escaped and announced that the Kunlun Society had taken the schools' resources before the war, while Qing Ming divided the spoils and Zhang Yu sent Zhang Pianpian 1,000 Spirit Coins for a Taiqing Talisman upgrade.

After the battle, Zhang Yu learned that the Taiqing Talisman had reached Level 3 and discovered the Soul Guiding Pool’s ability to harvest knowledge from nearby dead people. Zhang Pianpian warned him to strengthen his Immortal Sect Technique as the war worsened, while Xiang Shen reported Zhang Yu’s alarming growth to Xi Shen.

• Zhang Yu distributed Spirit Coins to Zhang Pianpian and avoided committing to support True Lord Qing Ming’s bid to ascend to Divine Transformation.
• Zhang Pianpian summoned Zhang Yu to the Taiqing Realm, where he confirmed that the Taiqing Talisman had reached Level 3.

• Zhang Pianpian advised Zhang Yu to strengthen Kunlun in Palm and offered to help wash uncopyrighted cultivation methods, but warned against washing Military-grade Cultivation Methods.
• Zhang Yu wondered what Godchildren were and decided to ask Fu Ji before continuing his cultivation.
• Xiang Shen told Xi Shen that he had failed to capture Zhang Yu but had gathered intelligence, and warned that Zhang Yu might be able to challenge the Nascent Soul Realm within a year.

As Zhang Yu completed his Golden Core foundations and pursued further cultivation, Divine Lord Ci Ji emerged from seclusion and announced an imminent attack on Long Night Jade Palace.

• Xiang Shen urged the Dark Spirit Realm leaders to eliminate Zhang Yu, but Xi Shen and others refused to spend resources on the operation, prompting Xiang Shen to vow to proceed alone.
• Over two months, Zhang Yu raised his Dao Heart and Physical Strength to level 30, completed ten Dao Foundations, and bought more medicine to pursue the remaining layers.
• Zhang Yu expanded his company's earnings and arranged payments and favors with Ten Thousand Laws University officials while using a Spirit Vein to increase his magical power.

• Divine Lord Ci Ji emerged from seclusion and announced that he would attack Long Night Jade Palace in three days, beginning a war over the moon.

Zhang Yu learned that the Top Ten Universities were preparing to retake Long Night Jade Palace from the rebels, while Divine Lord Ci Ji analyzed the moon’s defenses and planned the assault. The Moon War began with Magnetic Pole and Greenwood confronting Chain Pivot Divine Lord on the moon.

• Zhang Yu and Fu Ji discussed how the red moon and the defeats of Kunxu Layers 4 and 5 threatened Layer 2, prompting the Top Ten Universities to prepare for war.
• Azure Wood Divine Lord told Zhang Yu he would fight to reclaim Long Night Jade Palace and urged him to hide underground if the battle was lost.
• Divine Lord Ci Ji assessed the moon’s spatial lockdown, its narrow entrance, and the danger of reinforcements, then refined the battle plan.
• Three days later, the Top Ten Universities launched the Moon War, while Nascent Soul True Lords sealed the area around the moon.
• Magnetic Pole and Greenwood pierced the moon’s defenses and confronted Chain Pivot Divine Lord above Long Night Jade Palace.

Divine Lord Ci Ji and Greenwood Divine Lord fought Chain Pivot Divine Lord and Xiang Shen over control of the moon, while the battle’s outcome drew support from across Kunxu. As the Moon War entered its second day, Ci Ji burned the sun and moon with an Immortal Sect Technique to unleash overwhelming power, while Zhang Yu continued cultivating under the pressure of the conflict.

• Divine Lord Ci Ji and Greenwood Divine Lord attacked Chain Pivot Divine Lord and Xiang Shen, who defended the moon and drew strength from the support of living beings across several layers.
• Greenwood Divine Lord distorted space with his Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power, and Chain Pivot Divine Lord livestreamed the battle as public support bolstered him.
• Zhang Yu split off a thought to watch the fighting while cultivating, completing his thirteenfold Dao Foundation and raising his Magical Power to 5,866 units.
• On the second day of the war, Divine Lord Ci Ji used Great Sun Glazed Pure Fire and Incalculable, Unspeakable Turn to burn the sun and moon and drive Heavenly Sun Brilliant God's output beyond peak Divine Transformation.

As the Moon War ended in defeat and the Righteous Qi Alliance tightened its grip, Zhang Yu faced evacuation from Ten Thousand Laws University and decided to reveal a secret ability that could break the enemy’s Spatial Lockdown. Azure Wood Divine Lord recognized the importance of Zhang Yu’s power and promised to protect him as the universities prepared to strike back.

• Zhang Yu cultivated underground while the Moon War escalated, and Chain Pivot Divine Lord claimed Sun-Patrolling Souwu and Long Night Jade Palace after Magnetic Pole Divine Lord accepted defeat to save Azure Wood Divine Lord.
• The defeat brought shortages, rising prices, political infighting, and rumors of an approaching attack, while Azure Wood told Zhang Yu to prepare to evacuate Ten Thousand Laws University.
• Zhang Yu asked his friends and companions whether they would stay and fight or withdraw, and their replies convinced him that many people were willing to stand their ground.
• Zhang Yu told Azure Wood that he had learned to use Kunlun in Palm to destroy Spatial Structure, potentially allowing Magnetic Pole to overcome Chain Pivot’s Spatial Lockdown.
• Azure Wood confirmed Zhang Yu’s ability, said it could help reclaim the sun and reverse the situation, and vowed that he and Magnetic Pole would keep Zhang Yu safe.
