Chapter Summaries

Chen Yi brought Group 108 and the Ziwei Continent cultivators into the difficult Number Seven Dream Weaving Secret Realm to temper their Dao Hearts, where the Nightmare Spirit turned their fears against them. Qin Sheng defeated his own nightmare and claimed the first-kill accomplishment, while Chen Yi berated the remaining cultivators for their hesitation.

• The Nightmare Spirit transformed into three old crones and terrified Zhou Zheng, triggering Fate Passive and sending him back to the healing zone.
• Qin Sheng resisted the Nightmare Spirit’s transformation into An Zhen'er and fought it until it took his own form.
• Qin Sheng endured the battle and defeated his stronger-looking nightmare, earning its law fragments and the first-kill accomplishment.
• Qin Sheng triggered Fate Passive himself and returned to the healing zone after the fight.
• Chen Yi praised Qin Sheng’s hidden resolve, compared him with the struggling cultivators, and ordered the others to face their nightmares.

Chen Yi used the Nightmare Spirit trial to push Shan Biao and the other Late Integration cultivators to confront their fears, then entered the core of the Number Seven Dream Weaving Secret Realm to claim its origin. He left the cultivators under Qin Sheng’s supervision and gathered thirty of his one-star Immortal Body clones before the sapphire-blue barrier.

• Shan Biao challenged Chen Yi over his father’s death, but Chen Yi lifted him by the scruff and sent him to face the Nightmare Spirit.
• Shan Biao overcame his fear of Chen Yi’s image and swallowed it, but the Nightmare Spirit tore through his insides as he failed the trial’s next test.
• The Late Integration cultivators voiced their grievances against the Nightmare Spirit while Chen Yi summoned Qin Sheng to supervise them.
• Chen Yi reached the secret realm’s core and found a sapphire-blue barrier surrounding the Law Origin that could let him control the realm.
• Chen Yi summoned twenty-nine more one-star Immortal Body clones, bringing his force at the barrier to thirty.

Chen Yi’s clones entered the Dream Law Origin’s hidden space but found that refining it would take too long without more clones, so he released it and arranged to expand his forces. Ye Wuchen entered the Dream Weaving Secret Realm to vent his anger at the Rainbow Beads, only to find Chen Yi there.

• Chen Yi sent three clones through the azure barrier and seized the Dream Law Origin, discovering that its nearly million will imprints would take years to erase with only three clones.
• Chen Yi decided he needed at least fifty-four clones to breach the barrier and refine the origin quickly, then released it and erased all traces of the intrusion.
• Chen Yi received notice that Ye Wuchen and two subordinates had applied to enter the Dream Weaving Secret Realm, and saw an opportunity to recall nine distant Rainbow Beads.
• Ye Wuchen, frustrated by the Rainbow Beads taking most of his rewards and resources, spent his remaining thirty billion points on one hundred and fifty Fate Passives before entering the secret realm.
• Ye Wuchen used his fixed arena-defender privileges to enter the occupied secret realm, then recoiled in shock when he encountered Chen Yi.

Ye Wuchen encountered Chen Yi in the Number Seven Dream Weaving Secret Realm and learned that Chen Yi could grant him an enormous number of Fate Passive uses. After Ye Wuchen apologized and offered to repay his points, Chen Yi took back his necklace and ordered him to leave.

• Ye Wuchen found Chen Yi waiting in the Dream Weaving Secret Realm and admitted he had spent all his points on Fate Passive.
• Chen Yi sealed the exit, and Gu Yuan caught the two Group 2 veterans as they tried to retreat, then took them away to spar.
• Chen Yi offered Ye Wuchen one billion Fate Passive uses, and a system notification credited them to his account.
• Ye Wuchen apologized, promised to repay the three hundred billion points, and presented Chen Yi with an IOU.
• Chen Yi recalled the nine-colored bead necklace from Ye Wuchen and ordered him to leave, and Ye Wuchen obeyed.

Ye Wuchen submitted to Chen Yi and went to temper his Dao Heart, while the Dream Weaving Secret Realm gave its participants rapid cultivation gains. As the one-month trial neared its end and the Detection System recovered, Chen Yi prepared to withdraw and distribute rewards.

• Ye Wuchen accepted Chen Yi's orders and headed off to train with the Nightmare Spirits, politely greeting Gu Yuan along the way.
• Gu Yuan continued beating Group Two's trusted subordinates until Lin Buran apologized, while Meng Chao refused to yield and was beaten half-dead.
• Chen Yi ran the Number Seven Dream Weaving Secret Realm at full power, letting participants train with Fate Passives, healing, energy, and Nightmare Spirits.
• After twenty-eight days, thirty-one of the seventy-six Late Integration cultivators broke through into the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
• As the Detection System neared recovery, Chen Yi withdrew from the secret realm and prepared to settle the participants' rewards.

After the Dream Weaving Secret Realm trial ended, Chen Yi manipulated the reward settlement and left with his group, while Ye Wuchen pressured his companions to accept their rewards. Chen Yi planned to climb the Peak Ranking, and a routine inspection later discovered an enormous surge in Dream Law Origin consumption.

• The trial ended, and the legitimate chat group members received settlement panels with large rewards despite Chen Yi’s repeated Fate Passive triggers.
• Ye Wuchen convinced Lin Buran and Meng Chao to accept their shares, then privately decided Meng Chao could not be trusted.
• Chen Yi arranged rewards for himself and his group, bringing his personal balance above 50 billion points.
• Chen Yi decided to aim for the Peak Ranking and led everyone out after erasing traces from the secret realm.
• A backend divine sense moved to another secret realm, and two days later the detection system flagged abnormal Dream Law Origin consumption in the Number Seven Dream Weaving Secret Realm.

Chen Yi tried to blame the missing Law Origin on a system error during a routine investigation of Group 108, and the detection system nearly accepted the explanation. Its inquiry into Group 2 uncovered that Super Invincible had erased his memories by consuming a Spirit Scattering Pill supplied by Ye Mou, raising suspicions that he was hiding evidence from the Dream Weaving Secret Realm.

• Chen Yi denied wrongdoing and claimed that underqualified members had entered the Exorcism Instance because of a system error.
• Fang Mou told the detection system he had cleared the Exorcism Instance by chance and had not claimed its reward points.
• The detection system found that trial participants could not account for the missing Law Origin and considered blaming the deficit on a backend reboot.
• The detection system discovered that Super Invincible had suffered severe primordial spirit damage and memory loss after consuming a Spirit Scattering Pill.
• Ye Mou said Super Invincible had requested the pill to poison a Half-step True Immortal Demonic Eryi, then accused him of concealing a connection to the Dream Weaving Secret Realm's abnormalities.

Chen Yi exploited the detection system’s mistaken suspicion of a third-party intruder to infiltrate the chat group’s backend during maintenance. After seizing a key information channel, he discovered that even his new authority could not reveal the top ten members of the Peak Rankings.

• The detection system wrongly flagged Meng Chao as a suspected planted agent and began maintenance and upgrades to investigate possible intruders.
• Chen Yi used the system’s maintenance outage to flood it with anomaly reports until it could no longer keep up.
• Chen Yi infiltrated the information-processing core backend and replaced a crucial segment of its information transmission channel.
• Chen Yi began taking control of the secret realms and accessed previously restricted rankings, but found the top ten entries heavily classified.
• Chen Yi saw that Rank Eleven was Han Family's Eldest Daughter of Gaodao, an early stage Heavenly Immortal with 20.5 billion combat power, and tried to look up the Immortal Dao realms.

After reading the chat group’s outline of Immortal Dao realms, Chen Yi wondered whether his unusual cultivation path had gone badly astray, but resolved to trust his strength and prepare a powerful clone. Ziwei Heavenly Dao then arrived with a new ranking and asked him to release the thirty-one beings it had trapped.

• Chen Yi read the Immortal Dao realm descriptions and learned that Golden Immortals could imprint their will on the River of Time to perceive future possibilities.
• He compared the outline with his own cultivation, realizing he had never formed the usual internal circulation or Dao Domain and had instead absorbed the Tribulation Transcendence through eighty-one cycles.
• Although he suspected his path was crooked, Chen Yi defended his progress and reasoned that his four-star Immortal Body clones could reach combat power of 188.8 billion.
• Chen Yi planned to test the Heavenly Immortal ranked eleventh after the Primal Creation Plate’s maintenance, but decided to make a five-star clone first.
• Ziwei Heavenly Dao arrived with a Heavenly Dao Divine Ranking and asked Chen Yi to release its thirty-one little darlings.

Chen Yi brought thirty-one newly advanced Tribulation Transcendence cultivators before Ziwei Heavenly Dao, which invited them to join its Heavenly Dao Divine Ranking. As the cultivators accepted their positions, Liu Xing asked to become permanently bound like the older Heavenly Dao loose immortals, but Chen Yi insisted he remain free to resign.

• Chen Yi released the thirty-one newly advanced cultivators and told them that joining the Heavenly Dao Divine Ranking would let them avoid immortal ascension tribulations.
• Shan Biao cursed Chen Yi, and Ziwei Heavenly Dao struck him with lightning and ordered him to apologize; Shan Biao then entrusted his Nascent Soul origin to the ranking.
• The other thirty newly advanced cultivators followed Shan Biao and joined the ranking.
• Ziwei Heavenly Dao offered Liu Xing the position of Lord God of the Heavenly Patrol Inspectorate, and Liu Xing accepted while asking how the ranking differed from the older immortals' arrangement.
• After Ziwei Heavenly Dao explained that ranked deities could resign, Liu Xing declared that he wanted to give up his freedom and become a directly bound Heavenly Dao loose immortal.
• Chen Yi objected and told Ziwei Heavenly Dao to keep Liu Xing on the ranking, where he could be removed from his position if he performed poorly.

Chen Yi insisted that Ziwei Heavenly Dao use a fair promotion system and keep Heavenly Dao Direct-Underling Immortal positions limited, so Liu Xing and the others received outsourced posts instead. As the new immortals competed for divine appointments, Ziwei Heavenly Dao began assigning offices and treasures, and the crowd’s scramble grew chaotic.

• Chen Yi rejected making Liu Xing a Heavenly Dao Direct-Underling Immortal and told him to join the God List instead.
• Liu Xing accepted appointment as Chief God of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, tasked with monitoring variables and reporting threats to the heavenly mechanism.
• Ziwei Heavenly Dao appointed Shan Biao White Tiger Supervisor and Xu Zhanpeng Earth Vein Supervisor, granting each a supreme treasure tied to his duties.
• Newly promoted immortals crowded forward to request posts in departments including reincarnation, rain, marriage, rivers, thunder, and wealth.
• Liang Hong, Xiong Chuanyu, and Murong Yunhai argued over the God of Wealth position, and the dispute erupted into a fight.

After assigning most of the newly ascended Tribulation Transcendents to Heavenly offices, Chen Yi began preparing for the eighty-second challenge while Ziwei Heavenly Dao used the extra manpower to refine its laws. In the Department of Marriage, Qingqiu Wanying challenged Bai Yujing’s handling of a tangled relationship, but they let the resulting danger fall to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau.

• Chen Yi assigned the newly ascended Tribulation Transcendents to their posts, leaving the Finance Department’s chief god position vacant, and planned to lure Ye Wuchen back as God of Wealth.
• With its workload eased, Ziwei Heavenly Dao used the Flying Star Card drive core to continue advancing its Immortal Dao laws, while Chen Yi began building strength for the eighty-second challenge with forty-eight Rainbow Beads.
• Qingqiu Wanying questioned Bai Yujing’s decision to tie Qi Bin’s red thread to Qian Lu Xingyuan instead of Yun Shu, and Bai explained the consequences of Qian Lu Xingyuan missing Qi Bin again.
• Wan Ying caught Bai Yujing trying to make her take responsibility for the variable, then agreed to observe as he tied the thread between Qian Lu Xingyuan and Qi Bin.
• Yun Shu noticed her Dao Heart stir when she passed Qi Bin, then followed him after seeing him buy an injured black fox that was a Great Demon.
• Bai Yujing refused to intervene further and told Wan Ying to leave the aftermath to Liu Xing of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau before they continued handling other variables.

Chen Yi left the Ziwei Continent and entered the Void Domain to undergo tribulation, but the Immortal Ascension Tribulation immediately attacked him with a relentless barrage of Chaos Divine Lightning. When multiple bolts struck together and their destructive power fused, Chen Yi summoned his Tribulation-Conquering Great Halberd and prepared to fight back.

• Chen Yi prepared for his next tribulation by expanding his capacity to absorb Chaos Divine Lightning and wearing the forty-eight Rainbow Beads as a bracelet.
• Chen Yi sent Mu Chen into the void turbulence, then left the Phantom Star Grotto-Heaven after telling the Ziwei Heavenly Dao to refine the laws while he was away.
• Chen Yi entered the Void Domain, removed his rune-covered robe, and welcomed the approaching tribulation clouds.
• The Immortal Ascension Tribulation struck Chen Yi with successive bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning, and he absorbed what he could while using the Rainbow Beads to form a Tribulation-Conquering Great Formation.
• The tribulation launched the fourth, fifth, and sixth bolts simultaneously, combining their destructive power and enraging Chen Yi.
• Chen Yi summoned his Tribulation-Conquering Great Halberd and challenged the Immortal Ascension Tribulation to fight.

Chen Yi fought the Tribulation Transcendence clouds, then fled from their eighteen bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning to Ziwei Continent. After Ziwei Heavenly Dao refused to reveal his whereabouts, Chen Yi suddenly raided the Chaos Lightning Pool and lured the pursuing tribulation away.

• Chen Yi and six Immortal Body clones used Ultimate Path, Tribulation Ward to break apart nine bolts of Chaos Divine Lightning.
• When the clouds revealed eighteen more bolts, Chen Yi withdrew his clones, changed into a rune-covered daoist robe, and fled.
• The Tribulation Transcendence clouds pursued Chen Yi to Ziwei Continent and sealed off the outer domain.
• Ziwei Heavenly Dao refused to disclose Chen Yi's location, insisting the Upper Realm Heavenly Punishment had no conclusive evidence he was there.
• A ghostlike Chen Yi charged into the tribulation clouds, gulped from the Chaos Lightning Pool, and taunted the Tribulation Transcendence into chasing him.

Chen Yi stole Chaos Divine Lightning origin essence from the Tribulation Transcendence and escaped its pursuit by sacrificing a Five-star clone. After the Tribulation Transcendence left, Chen Yi survived, planned to rebuild his clones, and resolved to use the stolen Law Origin to advance toward the True Immortal realm.

• Chen Yi secretly stole enough Chaos Divine Lightning origin essence for forty-nine bolts from the Tribulation Transcendence's Chaos Lightning Pool, then fled as it pursued him through the Void Domain.
• While evading the Tribulation Transcendence, Chen Yi used the stolen essence to condense a Five-star clone as a tribulation substitute.
• After more than a thousand hours of pursuit, Chen Yi let the Tribulation Transcendence corner him and asked it to spare him, but it refused because of its rules.
• Chen Yi met the attack with Extreme Dao Fist, Tribulation Ward, and the resulting singularity consumed him and exploded into a newborn universe.
• Chen Yi revealed that he had survived in hiding, though all forty-eight Rainbow Beads containing his clones were lost and he could no longer live forever.
• Chen Yi assessed his remaining essence and decided to use the heavenly-punishment Law Origin he had stolen to create True Immortal-stage clones and cultivate a Dao Domain.

Rain God Yuan Qiyue collapsed from exhaustion after the Heavenly Dao canceled the rain, while Bai Yujing tied a Marriage Red Thread to her and assigned Liu Xing to handle the resulting variable. In the Phantom Star Grotto-Heaven, Chen Yi gave Ziwei the True Immortal-level Law Origin to refine and prepared to upgrade his last surviving chat group clone.

• The Heavenly Dao canceled the rain for ninety days, and Yuan Qiyue fell asleep after welcoming the returning Tribulation Control Venerable.
• Bai Yujing tied a Marriage Red Thread to Yuan Qiyue, and Wan Ying warned Liu Xing that the Department of Marriage had created another variable for him to follow up on.
• Liu Xing protested that the Department of Marriage took the credit while he did the hard work, but Bai Yujing ordered him to continue.
• Chen Yi gave Ziwei a mass of not-yet-fully-matured True Immortal-level Law Origin, and Ziwei began refining it with the Flying Star Heavenly Dao's driving core.
• Chen Yi shut the Phantom Star Grotto-Heaven and retrieved his last usable chat group clone, which he said would soon lose its Purple Firmament Divine Lightning traces.

Chen Yi reforged his chat group clone into a powerful True Immortal, then concealed its true Combat Power to avoid the detection system. After logging in, he discovered unreported ranking features and bonus points that suggested the detection system had bypassed the Backend Information Processing Center, leaving him suspicious of its motives.

• Chen Yi used Chaos Divine Lightning essence and the Immortal Ascension Tribulation to raise his clone to early True Immortal in three days, giving it 6 billion Combat Power.
• Chen Yi intercepted the clone's Combat Power report and changed its displayed value to 2 billion so the detection system would not investigate him.
• Chen Yi checked the group after months offline and found new Combat Power rankings and weekly growth rankings.
• Chen Yi noticed Fang Zheng had overtaken Mu Chen in Combat Power growth and credited Fang Zheng's progress to the trials.
• Chen Yi realized the weekly ranking's multiplier point rewards had never been reported to the Backend Information Processing Center and suspected the detection system was hiding the feature.

The Third Hand revealed that the Detection System suspected itself and had cut off contact with the Backend Information Processing Center, while Chen Yi resumed directing the group and sent Gu Yuan to help Chen Bo. A spatial portal opened behind Chen Bo as Chu Sheng attacked, and a terrifying aura silenced the battlefield.

• The Third Hand uncovered that the Detection System had severed its connection with the Backend Information Processing Center and was monitoring group members through rankings.
• Chen Yi welcomed the group members back, and Chen Bo reported that he had challenged eighteen enemy disciples after the Flying Horse Sect's Senior Disciple Brother was injured.
• Chen Yi voided his old orders, told group members to prioritize their safety, and directed Chen Bo to share his location so Gu Yuan could intervene.
• Chen Bo's fight with the Blood Fiend Sect escalated into a sect war, with the two sects' formations and leaders clashing across the battlefield.
• Chen Bo provoked Chu Sheng, who attacked him, but a spatial portal opened behind Chen Bo and released a terrifying aura that silenced everyone.

Gu Yuan rescued Chen Bo from the Blood Fiend Sect and returned to the chat group, where the group leader prepared another Exorcism Instance party. A new member, Lin Yuyu, accidentally joined the party despite having only 3,000 Combat Power, leaving her overwhelmed by the veterans’ strength.

• Gu Yuan destroyed the Blood River Great Formation, incapacitated Chu Sheng, and told Chen Bo to finish his affairs before joining the group.
• The Piaoyi Heavenly Dao changed Chen Bo’s assigned fate after realizing he had powerful otherworldly backing.
• Chen Bo assured Zhou Fugen that he would safely seek a treasure medicine for his Senior Disciple Brother.
• Gu Yuan reported the rescue, and Xiao Chunnan claimed he could handle the three ninth-rank Spirit Saints surrounding his hideout.
• The group leader opened an Exorcism Instance party, and the members joined the queue.
• Lin Yuyu joined the chat group and accidentally entered the party, then panicked at the veterans’ immense Combat Power.

Lin Yuyu, a fourteenth-grade Land God, joined the Myriad Worlds Transmigrator Mutual Aid Group and was recruited into its Exorcism Instance. Chen Yi distracted the detection system before leading a team into an active secret realm, where Ye Wuchen and Group 2 were waiting.

• Lin Yuyu struggled with the constant prayers of her believers and realized her divine duties left her little hope of survival.
• Lin Yuyu discovered the Myriad Worlds Transmigrator Mutual Aid Group and asked how to leave its Exorcism Instance team.
• Chen Yi examined Lin Yuyu's information and marveled at the Incense Deity system, then reassured her and joined the team.
• Chen Yi planted evidence to occupy the detection system with reports of third-party forces in multiple secret realms.
• Chen Yi led forty-five Integration stage peak cultivators into an active secret realm, where Ye Wuchen and Group 2's old-timers were waiting.
