• The Ruyi Celestial Palace Spirit succeeded in its breakthrough and transformed into a space soul, so Jiang Liu sent Gongsun Haoyue and Flowing Cloud Matriarch away from the pressure and collected the formation into the System Space.

Jiang Liu moved the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation into Winter Rest Palace to let the Ruyi Celestial Palace Spirit stabilize after its breakthrough and investigate the formation’s changes. He found the formation had expanded and its components were strained, then gave the Spirit three portions of the Voidnether Worm’s soul to consume as it continued its breakthrough.

• Gongsun Haoyue and Flowing Cloud Matriarch felt a faint connection to their space, while Jiang Liu watched bewilderedly as the Winter Rest Palace changed.

After the Ruyi Celestial Palace Spirit became the consciousness controlling Chaos Space, Winter Rest Palace transformed and pulled Jiang Liu inside. He resisted being dragged into the Chaos God's enormous abyssal maw with the Heavenly Evolution Codex, just as a surprised voice sounded in the palace.

• The Ruyi Celestial Palace Spirit took control of Chaos Space, causing Winter Rest Palace to glow white and gather a powerful aura.
• Winter Rest Palace's doors opened, and white light dragged Jiang Liu inside before shutting him in with a huge phantom left by the Chaos God.
• A force pulled Jiang Liu toward the phantom's enormous abyssal maw, though he feared entering it would cost him his life.

• Jiang Liu recovered his strength as the Power of Rule in his body shifted, and a transparent white light descended from Winter Rest Palace into him.

Jiang Liu fully surveyed Chaos Space and discovered that the white light from the abyss beneath Winter Rest Palace was a dangerous light of laws that could deepen his understanding of Law Power. As he recovered and resumed cultivation, the Human Race continued relocating into Chaos Space and building settlements away from the Spirit Mother Tree.

• Jiang Liu used his Divine Sense to inspect all of Chaos Space and saw the countless remains of Supreme God Realm martial artists buried beneath it.
• Jiang Liu realized the abyss's white light was a light of laws that could make people lose themselves, but also help him understand Law Power and transform his Power of Rule.
• Jiang Liu began clearing his Divine Sea and recovering, while small energy vortices formed around him without disturbing Chaos Space.
• Gongsun Haoyue and the others resumed construction away from the Spirit Mother Tree because even Fourth Tier Saint Realm experts could not endure its mental-power erosion without the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
• The Divine Artifact Starship transported Human Realm residents into Chaos Space, where the Hall of Governmental Affairs organized their settlement and left those who refused to move to fend for themselves.

Jiang Liu searched the Winter Rest Palace for clues to the Chaos God’s whereabouts and considered how obtaining the Chaos God’s inheritance could help him protect the Three Realms from the Void Creatures. A strange white light then entered his Divine Sea and triggered the phantom image of an axe.

• Jiang Liu concluded that the Chaos God’s startled exclamation had been caused by his cultivation of the Heavenly Evolution Codex, and that the abyssal maw’s Law Power had likely obstructed him before.
• Jiang Liu realized he needed the Chaos God’s inheritance to secure the Chaos God Position and unite the Three Realms against the Void Creatures and the Void Overlord.
• Jiang Liu found no trace of the Chaos God’s consciousness in his Divine Sea and flew to the Winter Rest Palace’s roof to search for clues.
• Jiang Liu wondered whether the Chaos God had entered the abyssal maw, despite the evidence that he had fought and injured the Void Overlord.
• Jiang Liu spotted an unusual white light, reached toward it, and felt his Divine Sea erupt as an axe phantom appeared within it.

Jiang Liu survived the Chaos God Lord’s remnant consciousness in the Winter Rest Palace and saw a star map that might lead to the Chaos Divine Axe. He left the palace to help settle the migrating Human Race before setting out to find the axe.

• Jiang Liu’s Divine Sea erased the weak consciousness within the phantom Chaos Divine Axe, and he saw a star map showing what he believed was the axe’s location.
• Jiang Liu inspected the Winter Rest Palace but found no explanation for its unusual qi, growing Spirit Power Particles, or mysterious nature.
• Jiang Liu left the Winter Rest Palace and wondered whether its gate and lack of a palace spirit indicated that it had changed.
• Jiang Liu decided to help Hun Er and the Hall of Governmental Affairs organize the Human Race in the Chaos Space before departing to search for the Chaos Divine Axe.

Jiang Liu returned to Chaos Space and directed the settlement of the Human Race, prioritizing ordinary people and assigning groups to different areas. While the migration proceeded enthusiastically, the hidden Insect Valley remained undiscovered in a secluded mountain valley.

• The people of the Holy Dynasty trusted Jiang Liu and responded enthusiastically to the relocation order, despite some worries about their new lives.
• Insect Valley remained hidden in a secluded mountain valley behind a colossal maze formation.

Insect Valley's elders debated whether to migrate with Jiang Liu to escape the coming tribulation, but Valley Master Lei Fu proposed returning to the Nether Realm instead. After learning that the Saint Insect was close to breaking through and needed resources unavailable in the Human Realm, the elders agreed to return and restore their ancestors' standing.

• Elder Zhang urged Lei Fu to migrate with Jiang Liu, but Lei Fu refused to abandon Insect Valley's foundation.
• Lei Fu told the elders they could avoid the tribulation by moving to the Nether Realm, and they questioned whether the sealed passage could still be used.
• Lei Fu said he had traversed the passage before and wanted to return because the Saint Insect was nearing a breakthrough.
• Lei Fu explained that Insect Valley lacked the resources to support the Saint Insect's breakthrough into the Divine Realm.
• Elder Zhang and the other elders agreed to migrate to the Nether Realm so the Saint Insect could advance and Insect Valley could rise again.

Insect Valley packed up and headed toward the sealed Secret Passage, unaware that Jiang Liu’s formations would trap them. Meanwhile, Jiang Liu prepared a new spatial formation around the Spirit Mother Tree as the women arranged lodgings for the arriving families, including Zheng Yunshang’s parents.

• Under Lei Fu’s leadership, Insect Valley packed its belongings, dismantled its Valley Protection Array, and left for the mountain range containing the Secret Passage.
• In Chaos Space, Jiang Liu decided to build a smaller spatial formation around the Spirit Mother Tree using modified divine artifacts.
• Gongsun Haoyue reassured Zheng Yunshang that her parents and the rest of the Zheng Family had moved to Chaos Space and would be settled nearby.
• Jiang Liu finished modifying an ornament, a shield, and a longsword, then began setting up the new formation.

Jiang Liu redeployed the divine-grade Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation around the Spirit Mother Tree, restoring the women’s secluded cultivation home. He gave Gongsun Haoyue and Zheng Yunshang modified tokens so they and the others could enter, though only Divine Realm cultivators could control the formation.

• Jiang Liu expanded the new Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation over the woods surrounding the Spirit Mother Tree.
• He placed three Divine Realm divine souls and the stored items into the formation, discovering that the exotic beasts inside had died.
• Gongsun Haoyue contacted Jiang Liu because she and Zheng Yunshang could not enter, and he explained that he would reforge their tokens.
• Jiang Liu modified the two Heaven-Veiling Tokens and brought Gongsun Haoyue, Zheng Yunshang, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Murong Yin, Feng Yue, Han Yi, Han Yue, Cuier, and Xiao He inside.
• The women delighted in seeing their familiar home restored, while Cuier and Xiao He went to prepare food and drink.

Jiang Liu gave two Saint artifacts to Zheng Yunshang and Feng Yue before checking Winter Rest Palace, where he discovered qi leaking into the surrounding area. After refining the qi, he felt his Power of Rule change and his Divine Sea churn more strongly, leaving him wary of what further cultivation might bring.

• Jiang Liu offered the Half-Origin Celestial Pearl and Yin-Yang Rings to the women, who chose Zheng Yunshang and Feng Yue to receive them.
• Jiang Liu erased the artifacts’ old spiritual imprints and helped Zheng Yunshang and Feng Yue bind them before leaving the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation with the others.
• Jiang Liu flew to Winter Rest Palace and noticed qi spilling out, a sign that the Chaos Space’s cultivation environment was improving.
• Jiang Liu cultivated with the qi and sensed subtle changes in his Power of Rule as his Divine Sea churned more violently and seemed poised to expand.

Jiang Liu entered the Winter Rest Palace to cultivate, but discovered that its Spirit Soul Consciousness had been trapped by the abyssal maw. The black shadow inside his Divine Sea transformed into an aberrant beast and attacked him.

• Jiang Liu saw that cultivation in the Divine Realm granted him experience much faster and sealed the Chaos Core to keep its dense Qi from changing the Chaos Space.
• The martial artists in the Chaos Space felt their oppressive sensation lift and their Qi become more active after Jiang Liu enclosed the Chaos Core.
• Jiang Liu approached the Winter Rest Palace and found that its white mist had thinned as dense Qi filled the palace.
• Jiang Liu left a teleportation point at the entrance, entered the Winter Rest Palace, and spread his Divine Sense through it.
• The Winter Rest Palace's doors closed, and Jiang Liu found a black shadow trapping the palace's Spirit Soul Consciousness inside his Divine Sea.
• The black shadow roared, transformed into an aberrant beast, and lunged at Jiang Liu's Spiritual Avatar.

Jiang Liu defeated the conscious white light that invaded his Spirit Sea Space, then gained full control of the Winter Rest Palace Spirit. The Winter Rest Palace Spirit drove away the abyssal maw before Jiang Liu could investigate it, leaving his search for clues to the Chaos God unresolved.

• Jiang Liu and the Golden-Winged Peng attacked the invading shadow inside his Spirit Sea Space and destroyed the consciousness behind it.
• Jiang Liu imprinted the Divine Beast Control Art mark on the Winter Rest Palace Spirit and took control of the Winter Rest Palace.
• Jiang Liu saw the abyssal maw shrinking and tried to approach it, but white light blocked his way.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit revealed that it had driven away the abyssal maw, preventing Jiang Liu from investigating it.

After hearing the Winter Rest Palace Spirit’s account, Jiang Liu learned fragments about the Chaos God’s disappearance and the Chaos Sutra, then prepared to deduce the cultivation art. He was interrupted when a formation he had placed in a Secret Passage sent a warning.

• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit told Jiang Liu everything it knew about the Chaos God and its own imprisonment.
• Jiang Liu sorted through its fragmented memories and learned that the Chaos God had practiced the Chaos Sutra, though the Spirit knew only its general circulation method.
• Jiang Liu decided not to practice the incomplete art directly and instead planned to deduce it with his Divine Sense.
• Jiang Liu’s Divine Sea showed that his formation in a Secret Passage had been disturbed.

Jiang Liu learned that an unknown person had entered the Secret Passage and went to investigate, while Lei Fu led the people of Insect Valley to its entrance. Unable to pass the reinforced Yin-Yang Fish Array, they waited for Jiang Liu, who sensed demonic aura among them when he arrived.

• Jiang Liu received a warning that an unidentified person had entered the Secret Passage and vanished from the Winter Rest Palace to investigate.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit saw Jiang Liu disappear despite the palace gates remaining shut and wondered how powerful its new master might become.
• Lei Fu led the people of Insect Valley safely to the Yin-Yang Fish Array, where he found it reinforced and impossible for him to break.
• Lei Fu told the Insect Valley group that Jiang Liu had likely altered the formation, and they chose to wait rather than flee.
• Jiang Liu appeared before the group, received their greetings, and sensed demonic aura coming from them.

Jiang Liu questioned the people of Insect Valley and learned they had come to leave the Human Realm for the Nether Realm. He agreed to let them go in exchange for Insect Valley’s secrets, which Lei Fu and the elders began revealing.

• Jiang Liu questioned the kneeling group, and Lei Fu identified them as people from Insect Valley seeking passage to the Nether Realm.
• Jiang Liu agreed to let them leave if they offered something in exchange, and Lei Fu promised everything Insect Valley possessed.
• Jiang Liu revealed that he had found Lei Fu’s hidden Soul-Devouring Insect, then returned it unharmed and asked for Insect Valley’s secrets instead.
• Lei Fu recounted Insect Valley’s secrets, summoned the elders to add what they knew, and offered Jiang Liu a book.
