• Jiang Liu used a travel point to leave the starstone, narrowly escaping before two attacks struck the place where he had been.
• Jiang Liu reached Winter Rest Palace, whose spirit opened the gate but retreated in fear when it saw him.

Jiang Liu recovered from the devastating attack as his flesh regrew, protected by the Power of Time-Space Rule within his bones. He decided to fuse that power into his new flesh to withstand the rule light, and began gathering it before his body fully healed.

• Jiang Liu entered the Winter Rest Palace and found he could not circulate the Heavenly Evolution Codex until his meridians began to recover.
• His bones endured the two rays of rule light because they contained the Power of Time-Space Rule, while dense qi helped his flesh grow back.
• After several days of unbearable itching, Jiang Liu saw his flesh rapidly take shape and estimated he would soon return to normal.
• Jiang Liu decided not to advance with the Heavenly Evolution Codex because doing so would make him lose control of the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu began circulating the Heavenly Evolution Codex to condense the Power of Time-Space Rule and fuse it into his regrowing flesh.

Jiang Liu tried to fuse the Power of Time-Space Rule into his flesh to strengthen his body enough to withstand Law Power, but the rule power leaked straight through him. He stopped refining it and began considering whether external objects could help his body absorb the Power of Rule.

• Jiang Liu drew the Power of Rule in Winter Rest Palace into his meridians and refined it into the Power of Time-Space Rule, turning his body pale blue.
• As his meridians reached saturation, the Power of Time-Space Rule cracked through them and entered his flesh, causing pain that Jiang Liu endured as he continued refining.
• The Power of Time-Space Rule passed through Jiang Liu's flesh and streamed out of his body, leaving him unable to strengthen himself by this method.
• Jiang Liu stopped refining the rule power and recalled that the Nether Water Sutra used an external object for cultivation, prompting him to consider using external objects to fuse the Power of Rule into his flesh.

Jiang Liu used Body Forging Grass to strengthen his physical body, then began refining the Power of Time-Space Rule into his flesh. The rule power started fusing with his body despite the intense pain, leaving him hopeful that he could withstand Law Power better.

• Jiang Liu found Body Forging Grass in his System Space and roasted it into golden medicinal liquid.
• Jiang Liu guided the liquid into his body, where it stripped away flesh and blood that could not fuse with it.
• After six hours, Jiang Liu finished refining the Body Forging Grass and felt his remaining flesh and blood radiate a faint golden light.
• Jiang Liu circulated the Heavenly Evolution Codex and forced the Power of Time-Space Rule through his meridians into his flesh.
• Jiang Liu felt intense pain as the rule power began fusing with his body, then continued refining it.

After recovering from his injuries, Jiang Liu learned that the Winter Rest Palace Spirit feared the Void Overlord’s aura on his body. The spirit revealed that the Void Overlord had pulled its former master through the Gate of Void, leaving Jiang Liu with new questions about where the Chaos God and Void Overlord had fought and how they had escaped.

• Jiang Liu reflected on how the Law Power attack had immobilized his spirit and nearly overwhelmed his Spirit Sea Space, then focused on healing.
• After a month of recovery, Jiang Liu’s injuries had healed, and his body radiated a faint golden light.
• Jiang Liu prepared to leave the Winter Rest Palace and return to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, but noticed the Winter Rest Palace Spirit keeping its distance.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit told Jiang Liu that his body carried the Void Overlord’s aura and pointed to the Gate of Void as the place it had sensed it.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit revealed that the Void Overlord had pulled its former master through the Gate of Void, prompting Jiang Liu to question how the Chaos God and Void Overlord had traveled between their battle sites and escaped.

Jiang Liu learned that the Void Overlord had entered the Winter Rest Palace through the Gate of Void and fought the Chaos God there before leaving with him. The Void Overlord appeared to be searching for the Chaos God, leaving Jiang Liu questioning whether the Chaos God had truly died and what happened after their battle.

• Jiang Liu asked the Winter Rest Palace Spirit whether the Chaos God had returned, and the Spirit said his master had left with the Void Overlord after they fought in the palace.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit showed Jiang Liu the battle damage, which convinced him that the fighters had been far stronger than he was.
• The Spirit pointed to the Gate of Void as the place where the Void Overlord had appeared and explained that his missing memories had returned after the Gate reappeared.
• Jiang Liu realized that the Gates of Void had drawn the Chaos Space toward the Winter Rest Palace, possibly to lure out the Chaos God.
• Jiang Liu suspected the Void Overlord had been monitoring the Chaos Space and considered whether the Chaos God might still be alive, but found no evidence that he was.

Jiang Liu returned to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, reassured the women, and then went back to the starstone to investigate the chaotic law lights and experience the Chaos Law. He endured the gray radiance’s attack as he pursued a deeper understanding of the Chaos Sutra.

• Jiang Liu left Winter Rest Palace after comforting its spirit and decided to return to the starstone once he had shown the women he was safe.
• Jiang Liu found Gongsun Haoyue, Murong Yin, and the other women waiting near the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, and he told them he had been delayed while exploring.
• Jiang Liu spent the night with the women, then left Chaos Space the next morning and traveled toward the starstone as Void Creatures avoided his aura.
• Jiang Liu returned to the starstone to confirm whether it was the Final Battleground and to study the Chaos Law lights.
• Jiang Liu struck the black radiance with a light-blue saber, which broke as the black light dissipated, and he endured the remaining gray radiance’s painful attack.

Jiang Liu endured the weakening chaos law lights as he moved deeper into the Gate of Void, seeking to understand how the chaos law operated. He shattered two powerful figures whose light entered his body, leaving their effects unknown.

• Jiang Liu recovered from the clash between the chaos law and the Power of Time-Space Rule, then wondered whether the Void Overlord had spared him because it sensed the aura of Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu continued forward and found that his pale-blue blade easily cleaved through weakened chaos law light, which no longer hurt him.
• Jiang Liu noticed the law lights growing weaker while the gravity grew heavier, and he pressed on toward two figures that still radiated a fatal threat.
• Jiang Liu used the Godslayer Blade and the Heaven Evolution Codex to strike the two figures, shattering them and drawing their streams of light into his body.

Jiang Liu reasoned about the hidden history of the Void Overlord and the Chaos God’s battle, then pressed onward in search of the Chaos Sutra.

• The Void Overlord’s aura vanished from Jiang Liu, and a vortex formed in the Void Core, driving nearby Void Creature races to flee their territories.
• A shadow emerged from the vortex, glanced toward Jiang Liu’s starstone, and sank back down without confronting him.
• Jiang Liu spread his Divine Sense, but the starstone’s gravity overwhelmed it and forced it back into his body.
• Jiang Liu considered whether someone had manipulated the Void Overlord and the Chaos God into fighting at the Final Battleground.
• Jiang Liu decided he had to keep exploring for the Chaos Sutra and continued forward, wary of reactivating the Gate of Void.

• Jiang Liu adapted to the starstone’s gravity and realized the pressure was strengthening his physical body and helping it contain more Power of Rule.
• Jiang Liu reflected on the Chaos God and the Void Overlord’s battle, suspecting their motives went beyond racial hatred.
• Jiang Liu adjusted his breathing and continued deeper into the starstone, following an unusual pull toward a distant area.
• A blurred figure condensed from an invisible aura above the starstone, saw Jiang Liu, and vanished without a trace.

Jiang Liu ventured into the white mist, where strange figures attacked him but could be destroyed by his Divine Sense blades. The mist revealed a familiar scene of Void Creatures circling starstones, leaving him wondering whether the Chaos Divine Axe was there.

• Jiang Liu continued deeper into the white mist as it parted around him and the gravity began to diminish.
• Faint figures appeared in the mist, then suddenly formed into beasts and attacked Jiang Liu.
• Jiang Liu's Godslayer Blade and Divine Strike failed to harm the beasts, so he used Divine Sense blades to destroy them.
• The beasts' reaching hands dissolved before they could reach Jiang Liu, while the mist revealed starstones and Void Creatures circling them.
• Jiang Liu recognized the scene as familiar and wondered whether the Chaos Divine Axe was there.

Jiang Liu uncovered the Final Battleground where the Chaos God and the Void Overlord had fought, finding the Chaos Divine Axe’s location beyond a void filled with dangerous Void Creatures. After attacking them with Divine Sense blades, he began playing the Phantom Sound Flute as a last attempt to strike from a distance.

• Jiang Liu discovered that the star map pointed to a hidden stretch of void containing the Final Battleground and a group of Void Creatures trapped within it.
• Jiang Liu realized his God Lord Realm spiritual power could harm the Void Creatures, unlike his earlier attacks using the Godslayer Blade, and suspected the creatures were reconstituted remnants rather than living beings.
• Jiang Liu sent dozens of Divine Sense blades into the void, killing some Void Creatures, but the survivors dodged most of the attack and his Divine Sea lost more than half its water.
• Jiang Liu decided against entering the void and, with few options left, began playing the Phantom Sound Flute to attack the remaining Void Creatures.

Jiang Liu destroyed most of the Void Creatures with a sound-domain attack and reached the starstone where the Chaos Divine Axe appeared. The starstone’s pressure shattered his defenses and left his body numb as an even stronger force surged toward him.

• Jiang Liu condensed the Phantom Sound Flute’s notes into a sphere and sent it into the void, where its explosion annihilated the nearby Void Creatures.
• Jiang Liu entered the void and found that his Divine Sense had returned to normal, while his strengthened body circulated the Power of Rule more quickly.
• Jiang Liu evaded a Void Creature’s attack and reached a starstone bearing a huge axe-shaped apparition of light.
• The starstone’s pressure shattered Jiang Liu’s protective shield, numbed his body, and was followed by an even stronger wave of pressure.

Jiang Liu fled the Chaos Divine Axe after its might forced him back, then fought several weakened Void Creatures that attacked him. The creatures unleashed their Laws against him, and he was sent flying, but his body remained unharmed.

• Jiang Liu sensed the Chaos Divine Axe's might and fled until it withdrew, realizing that obtaining the axe would be difficult.
• Several God Lord Realm Void Creatures attacked Jiang Liu, and he tried to strike them with pale blue knives.

• The Void Creatures' spatial binding collapsed, and Jiang Liu used the Godslayer Blade to surround them with pale blue light.
• The Void Creatures unleashed their Laws in a fierce clash with Jiang Liu, sending him flying while leaving his body unharmed.

Jiang Liu lured the Void Creatures toward the Chaos Divine Axe and escaped their fatal attack using a traversal point. The axe annihilated the creatures, leaving Jiang Liu to realize that winning its Spirit’s recognition would be necessary to obtain the powerful artifact.

• Jiang Liu used a spatial barrier to defend himself against the Void Creatures’ attacks, but they shattered it and wounded him.
• Jiang Liu retreated toward the Chaos Divine Axe while the Void Creatures closed in, unaware that the axe’s light had dimmed.
• The Void Creatures struck Jiang Liu with a combined attack, but he escaped to the Gravity Starstone using a traversal point he had left there.
• The Chaos Divine Axe’s power targeted and annihilated the Void Creatures as they surrounded Jiang Liu.
• Jiang Liu realized the axe remained exceptionally powerful and concluded that he would need the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit’s recognition to claim it.

Jiang Liu considered how to subdue the Chaos Divine Axe without provoking its powerful spirit and realized its hostility toward him might stem from resentment over the Chaos God's fate. He decided that revealing himself as the Chaos God's successor could give him a chance to form a contract with the axe.

• Jiang Liu worried that attempting to control the Chaos Divine Axe could lead to another rebellion like the one by the Chaos Space Consciousness.
• Jiang Liu noticed the silent void seemed to imprison the Chaos Divine Axe along with the Void Creatures, and wondered whether the axe also wanted to escape.
• Jiang Liu reentered the void but stopped at a safe distance from the meteorite, since the Chaos Divine Axe remained hostile and its power had not weakened.
• Jiang Liu reasoned that the Chaos Divine Axe blamed Human Race cultivators for failing to aid the Chaos God, and that it might change its attitude if it sensed Jiang Liu was the Chaos God's successor.

Jiang Liu drew closer to the Chaos Divine Axe by revealing the auras of Chaos Space and Winter Rest Palace, then explained how he had obtained them. The Chaos Divine Axe believed his account and offered him a chance to contract with it, but only on equal terms.

• Jiang Liu used the auras of Chaos Space and Winter Rest Palace to lessen the Chaos Divine Axe's hostility and move closer to it.
• The Chaos Divine Axe spoke directly to Jiang Liu and asked where the two auras came from.
• Jiang Liu explained how he had obtained Chaos Space and Winter Rest Palace and described Chaos Space's attack and division after the Chaos God's disappearance.
• The Chaos Divine Axe accepted Jiang Liu's account and offered him a chance to contract with it in an equal contract rather than a slave contract.

Jiang Liu agreed to form an equal contract with the Chaos Divine Axe, but the Data Panel identified the transmitted art as the God Lord-level Kun Qian Trap. He realized the Chaos God had deceived the axe about the art’s purpose and confirmed that he had learned it.

• The Chaos Divine Axe Spirit explained the equal contract and revealed that it wanted to use Jiang Liu to escape the sealed space before finding a new master.
• Jiang Liu agreed to the contract because he could not control the Chaos Divine Axe by force.
• The Chaos Divine Axe Spirit sent Jiang Liu the contract art, and the Data Panel identified it as the God Lord-level Kun Qian Trap.
• Jiang Liu suspected the Chaos God had tricked the Chaos Divine Axe by disguising the trap as an equal-contract art.
• Jiang Liu confirmed the Kun Qian Trap on his Data Panel as the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit sent him more strands of awareness.

Jiang Liu used the Kun Qian Trap to bind the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit, gaining a connection to the artifact. As the Chaos Divine Axe’s aura erupted, a white Gate of Void appeared atop the Gravity Starstone.

• Jiang Liu realized the Kun Qian Trap was a God Lord-level technique and decided he must find the Chaos Sutra before attempting to reach the God Lord Realm.
• Jiang Liu cast the Kun Qian Trap while the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit cooperated, forming the Kun Qian Imprisonment Mark.
• The Chaos Divine Axe Spirit inspected the mark and drew it into its sea of consciousness, triggering a powerful eruption of aura.
• Jiang Liu moved away from the eruption and sensed a thread of connection with the Chaos Divine Axe.
• A white Gate of Void appeared atop the Gravity Starstone, and Jiang Liu recognized it as the Gate of Void appearing again.

Jiang Liu subdued the Chaos Divine Axe and followed its spirit to the formation trapping its true form on the Gravity Starstone. He realized the Chaos God and Void Overlord were suppressing the formation alongside two unfamiliar powers, and wondered why the Chaos God had let him claim an axe that seemed unable to leave.

• Jiang Liu considered returning to the Gate of Void after obtaining the Chaos Divine Axe and wondered whether the two were connected.
• The Chaos Divine Axe Spirit accepted its renewed slave contract, and Jiang Liu entered the void to question it.
• The spirit led Jiang Liu to the starstone where its true form was trapped.
• Jiang Liu sensed the Chaos God’s and Void Overlord’s auras reinforcing a formation that appeared to contain something beyond the Chaos Divine Axe.
• Jiang Liu wondered why the Chaos God had allowed him to subdue the axe if it could not leave the formation.

Jiang Liu investigated the formation containing the Chaos Divine Axe and discovered that the auras of the Chaos God and the Void Overlord had created two additional auras through their clashes. He used his link to the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit to seize the axe from a distance and escaped as the formation collapsed.

• Jiang Liu sent blades of Time-Space Rule energy into the formation, but they were devoured and caused a sharp pain in his Divine Sea.
• Jiang Liu discovered that the formation had been jointly created by the Chaos God and the Void Overlord, and that their clashing auras had produced two other auras.
• Jiang Liu cautiously approached the formation again and used his connection to the Chaos Divine Axe Spirit to pull the Chaos Divine Axe out.
• Jiang Liu vanished from the starstone, and four powerful auras erupted, shattering the layer of light and exposing a strange white glow.
