Chapter Summaries

Jiang Liu realized that his no-grade cultivation methods could reach the God Lord Realm and that God Lord-level techniques only revealed their true power when used at that level. After refining the qi in the Chaos God's domain, he found the landscape withering and began searching the mountains before the place collapsed.

• Jiang Liu concluded that the Rule God Lord's techniques had seemed merely god-grade because he had viewed them before reaching the God Lord Realm.
• Jiang Liu realized that the Five Elements Heart Sutra was a no-grade method capable of reaching the God Lord Realm, but chose to pursue the Chaos God's cultivation method to protect his chance of inheriting the Chaos God Position.
• Jiang Liu considered how difficult it would be to find the missing Chaos God or his inheritance.
• Jiang Liu saw that the Chaos God's domain had withered after he refined its qi and decided to search its mountain peaks before it collapsed.
• Jiang Liu entered the mountain peaks to inspect them more carefully.

After reaching the God Lord Realm, Jiang Liu discovered his Divine Sense could identify different kinds of qi and learned why the God Lords sought the Chaos God Position. He investigated the damage caused by refining qi in the Chaos Space, unsure whether it would affect the entire space.

• Jiang Liu sensed that his Spirit Sea Space had expanded and concluded that his spiritual power had broken through to the God Lord Realm.
• Jiang Liu found that he could distinguish different kinds of qi by sight and understood that the qi in the Human Realm Space was diluted residue from before the Chaos Space shattered.
• Jiang Liu reasoned that the Rule God Lord was likely hiding in the Inner Void Layer or deeper and chose not to reveal his whereabouts.
• Jiang Liu learned that the Chaos Divine Hall controlled the God Lords and that they could escape its control only by having their divine souls annihilated or ascending to the Chaos God Position.
• Jiang Liu saw that refining qi had left the land fractured and filled with waste qi, then vanished among the mountains to investigate the damage.

Jiang Liu searched the Chaos Core for the Chaos God's inheritance but found nothing, then secured the Chaos Space after the Chaos Space Consciousness was destroyed and the Core changed. He returned to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, where the women noticed his breakthrough to the God Lord Realm.

• Jiang Liu searched every mountain in the Chaos Core but found no items related to the Chaos God's inheritance or a path to inherit the Chaos God Position.
• After leaving the Chaos Core, Jiang Liu sensed changes in the other fragments and checked that the four hidden passages and the Obscuring Grand Formation remained secure.
• Jiang Liu reinforced the Obscuring Grand Formation, concealing the Chaos Space so thoroughly that nearby Void Creatures could no longer sense it.
• Jiang Liu noticed that the white mist had stabilized, indicating that the Chaos Space's loss of origin energy had stopped worsening.
• Jiang Liu returned to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation and discovered that his God Lord Realm mental breakthrough had improved his control of the Chaos Space and his spatial jumps.
• Gongsun Haoyue and the other women flew to Jiang Liu and reacted with surprise when they realized he had broken through again.

Jiang Liu’s women learned that his mental power had broken through because Gongsun Haoyue sensed a change in the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation. Relieved that the news had not spread beyond their group, Jiang Liu celebrated his breakthrough with them and guided their cultivation.

• Gongsun Haoyue told Jiang Liu she had detected his breakthrough through changes in the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, which she could jointly control with him.
• Jiang Liu realized the formation had sensed his mental-power breakthrough through its three contracted Artifact Spirits and relaxed when he learned the news had not spread.
• Feng Yue asked Jiang Liu whether he had truly broken through, and he confirmed it while drawing her into his arms.
• The women felt reassured by Jiang Liu’s increased strength but remained aware of the dangers facing their independent space and the coming crisis in the Human Realm and God Realm.
• The women asked Jiang Liu about his breakthrough, and he gave them detailed cultivation guidance.

Jiang Liu considered how to restore the failing Chaos Space and decided to bring ordinary people from the Human Realm there, both to protect them and revive the space. After the women began planning the migration, Jiang Liu started gathering the Chaos Space’s cultivators in Hun Qi, triggering upheaval throughout the realm.

• Jiang Liu assessed the Chaos Space’s decline and considered restoring it by finding treasures, advancing his cultivation, or migrating people from the Human Realm.
• Jiang Liu took Gongsun Haoyue, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Han Yi, and Han Yue around the Chaos Space to survey its terrain.
• Gongsun Haoyue gathered the women to plan the regions, city sites, and first group of migrants, while Jiang Liu left them to handle the arrangements.
• Jiang Liu decided to move every cultivator in the Chaos Space to Hun Qi so he could manage them and limit their access to Heaven and Earth Essence.
• Jiang Liu spread his Divine Sense across the Chaos Space using the Obscuring Grand Formation, causing catastrophic upheaval everywhere except peaceful Hun Qi.

Jiang Liu drove the cultivators remaining in Chaos Space into Hun Qi Space and killed those who refused to leave. After sealing off their new residence, he returned to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, where Feng Yue had prepared the Human Race’s relocation plan.

• The cultivators fled the disasters across Chaos Space toward the safe Hun Qi Space Jiang Liu had arranged.
• Jiang Liu used a disguised Thunder attack to annihilate the souls of the dozen or so cultivators who refused to leave.
• Jiang Liu ordered the remaining cultivators to stay in Hun Qi Space and barred them from entering other regions.
• Jiang Liu sealed Hun Qi Space after the frightened cultivators agreed to obey.
• Feng Yue told Jiang Liu that the women had decided who should relocate first, and Jiang Liu approved the plan.

Jiang Liu planned to move people from the Human Realm into the Chaos Space to protect them from an approaching apocalypse, choosing a concealed transport method. After he left to secure ships, Gongsun Haoyue and the others began preparing the Chaos Space for the first arrivals.

• Jiang Liu judged that the apocalyptic crisis threatening the Three Realms was beyond his power to stop and decided to preserve as many members of the Human Race as possible in the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu chose to move the Chaos Space near the Human Realm's airspace and transport people aboard Divine Artifact Starships, since ordinary humans could not survive the teleportation passage or travel through space unprotected.
• Jiang Liu ordered Qin Bailian to prepare a list of the first people to be moved into the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu traveled to the God Realm to have the Shockwave Sea Alliance gather Divine Artifact Starships and Saint Artifact Spaceships.
• Gongsun Haoyue, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Murong Yin, Han Yi, and the others brought Yun Kong and began preparing a cultivation environment centered on the Spirit Mother Tree.

The women organized the Chaos Space into zones around the Spirit Mother Tree for the Human Race’s migration, while Gongsun Haoyue reassured Han Yi and Han Yue that the Frost Race would have a place near the core. Jiang Liu ordered Qin Bailian to prepare a first migration batch that included Star Cloud Saint Sect members, catching the Hall of Governmental Affairs by surprise.

• The women divided the land around the Spirit Mother Tree into zones for the Human Race’s leaders, major powers, smaller forces, and ordinary people.
• Gongsun Haoyue told Han Yi and Han Yue that the Frost Race would be given a place near the core, and they decided to urge their people to migrate in the first batch.
• Jiang Liu transmitted his migration order to Qin Bailian but described the destination only as a sacred cultivation ground.
• Qin Bailian relayed Jiang Liu’s order to the Hall of Governmental Affairs, which was surprised that Star Cloud Saint Sect members would also leave in the first batch.

Jiang Liu prepared the Star Cloud Holy Dynasty and Star Cloud Saint Sect for a voluntary migration from the Human Realm, while planning his next steps in the God Realm. At Tranquil Sea Island, he asked the Shockwave Sea Alliance for Divine Artifact Starships.

• The Hall of Governmental Affairs privately told Jiang Liu's allied factions that they would relocate to a sacred cultivation site, and the Star Cloud Saint Sect's elders decided to follow his order despite some members' reluctance.
• Jiang Liu appeared above Tranquil Sea Island and considered the Unicorn Divine Ox's revenge, Tian Lan's role in reducing the God Realm's losses, and Long Wave Sword God's desire for vengeance.
• Jiang Liu summoned the Unicorn Divine Ox and met Yu Chenghai and the Shockwave Sea Alliance, whose people had been cultivating in peace after nearby sea beasts were dealt with.
• Jiang Liu asked Yu Chenghai how many Divine Artifact Starships the alliance could spare without disrupting its normal operations.

Jiang Liu arranged for the Shockwave Sea Alliance to provide thirty-five Divine Artifact Starships to evacuate people from the Star Cloud Holy Dynasty. After the Unicorn Divine Ox reported killing Chihuang, You Ye, and Yi Yun, it produced a miniature palace that stirred Jiang Liu’s Divine Sea.

• Yu Chenghai told Jiang Liu that the Shockwave Sea Alliance could spare thirty-five Divine Artifact Starships, and Jiang Liu agreed to exchange primordial stones for them.
• Yu Chenghai began mobilizing the starships while Jiang Liu flew to Xingyun Island to meet the Unicorn Divine Ox.
• The Unicorn Divine Ox told Jiang Liu that it had killed Chihuang, You Ye, and Yi Yun, leaving two of the four great Ferocious Beasts dead.
• The Unicorn Divine Ox brought a miniature palace out of its mouth, and Jiang Liu felt his Divine Sea stir when he saw it.

Jiang Liu collected forty Divine Artifact Starships from the Shockwave Sea Alliance and returned to Chaos Space with the Unicorn Divine Ox and Chi Huang’s palace. The palace reacted to the Chaos Core, leading Jiang Liu to suspect it was connected to the Chaos God.

• Jiang Liu put the palace away after its initial effect on his Divine Sea disappeared, then rested inside Xingyun Island.
• Yu Chenghai gathered forty Divine Artifact Starships, which Jiang Liu inspected and paid for with origin stones.
• Jiang Liu dismissed Yu Chenghai and the others, stored the ships and Unicorn Divine Ox in System Space, and used Fixed-Point Shuttle to return to Chaos Space.
• Yu Chenghai and the others found the area around Xingyun Island empty and agreed to keep Jiang Liu’s secret.
• Jiang Liu took out the ships, the Unicorn Divine Ox, and the palace in Chaos Space, and the palace flew toward the Chaos Core.

Jiang Liu brought the Winter Rest Palace back to the Chaos Core, where its energy revived the surrounding mountains and stabilized the Chaos Space. The palace revealed its name and welcomed him inside, leaving him to search for traces of the Chaos God.

• Jiang Liu ordered the Unicorn Divine Ox to cultivate in the Chaos Space and protect his wives, while it flew off to find Hun Er.
• The Winter Rest Palace expanded and settled among the mountain peaks near the Chaos Core, releasing energy that restored the withered mountains.
• Jiang Liu saw that the palace's energy had stabilized the Chaos Core and approached it, hoping to find clues left by the Chaos God.
• The palace doors opened for Jiang Liu, and a faint connection formed between him and the palace.
• The characters “Winter Rest Palace” appeared above the entrance, and Jiang Liu entered the main hall.

Jiang Liu explored Winter Rest Palace, discovered a mysterious doorway that repelled his Divine Sense, and found that cultivating the Heavenly Evolution Codex inside the palace caused unbearable pain. He retreated from the doorway and stopped cultivating, wary of the dangers hidden in the palace.

• Winter Rest Palace's doors slammed shut behind Jiang Liu, trapping him inside as white mist filled the hall.
• Jiang Liu explored the empty hall and found that the mist restored his mental energy and made the Power of Rule in his body more active.
• Jiang Liu approached a deep doorway at the rear of the palace, but its light repelled his Divine Sense, so he retreated rather than enter.
• Jiang Liu tried to circulate the Heavenly Evolution Codex, but the palace's rejection caused severe pain throughout his body, forcing him to stop.

Jiang Liu struggled to find a cultivation method that Winter Rest Palace would accept, since using the Heaven Evolution Codex brought an attack and the Five Elements Heart Sutra no longer helped him. He left himself with no clear way to cultivate there or eventually claim the Chaos God Position.

• Jiang Liu suspected that a conflict between the Chaos God and the Rule God Lord caused Winter Rest Palace to reject the Heaven Evolution Codex.
• Jiang Liu realized he would need the Chaos God's cultivation method to cultivate in Winter Rest Palace and inherit the Chaos God Position.
• Jiang Liu considered using the Five Elements Heart Sutra, which the Data Panel had once given him.
• Jiang Liu circulated the Five Elements Heart Sutra and found it drew in no mist or added vitality or Power of Rule to his body.

Jiang Liu concealed Winter Rest Palace, returned to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, and began moving the Chaos Space toward the Human Realm's domain. His breakthrough let him move it far faster than expected, but the exposed Chaos Space attracted the attention of powerful Void Creatures.

• Jiang Liu covered Winter Rest Palace in mist and sealed the Chaos Core after failing to uncover the palace’s secrets.
• Jiang Liu found Gongsun Haoyue, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Han Yi, Han Yue, and Yun Kong renovating the area around the Spirit Mother Tree.
• Jiang Liu used the Heavenly Evolution Codex to move the Chaos Space toward the Human Realm's domain.
• Jiang Liu discovered that his breakthrough let him move the Chaos Space nearly as quickly as its former consciousness had.
• Jiang Liu’s exposed aura revealed the Chaos Space to powerful Void Creatures nearby.

After Jiang Liu moved the Chaos Space, its aura and pale-blue light attracted a powerful group of Shadow Void Creatures from the Inner Void Layer. They surrounded him and began their attack, leaving Jiang Liu facing an imminent threat.

• Jiang Liu moved the Chaos Space, causing its aura and pale-blue radiance to draw the attention of nearby Void Creatures.
• A group of Shadow Void Creatures abandoned their previous prey and rushed toward the Chaos Space, driving the other Void Creatures away.
• The Shadow Void Creatures surrounded the Chaos Space, unaffected by its aura because they were accustomed to such pressure and sensed that its controller was below the God Lord Realm.
• Jiang Liu sensed that even the weakest Shadow Void Creatures had reached the Supreme God Realm and realized the clan was stronger than the Void Nether Kun clan.
• Jiang Liu considered how the Void Overlord’s emergence and the Inner Void Layer’s battles might affect the Three Realms and his Human Race migration plan.
• The Shadow Void Creatures began their attack, plunging the space around the Chaos Space into darkness that blocked even Divine Sense.

Jiang Liu fought off the Shadow Void Creature horde after discovering their mental attacks and using the Heavenly Evolution Codex to absorb them. The creatures retreated after his Light Blue Dragons broke their assault, leaving Jiang Liu to wait until their presence had vanished before recalling the dragons.

• The Shadow Void Creatures attacked Jiang Liu’s Chaos Space with mental assaults, but the Heavenly Evolution Codex absorbed the attacks and killed the weaker creatures.
• The Shadow Void Creatures renewed their assault on the Chaos Space, and Jiang Liu emerged to send a Light Blue Dragon tearing through their encirclement.
• The Shadow Void Creatures’ leader and other powerful members struck at Jiang Liu, forcing him to retreat and calm his Divine Sea with refined Void Force.
• Jiang Liu summoned two Light Blue Dragons, and the Shadow Void Creatures withdrew after realizing they could not gain an advantage.
• Jiang Liu waited until he could no longer sense the creatures, then recalled the two Light Blue Dragons into his Divine Sea.

Jiang Liu drove off the Shadow Void Creatures, cleared their marks from Chaos Space, and moved it into the Human Realm’s airspace. A mysterious black point of light continued toward the Spirit Mother Tree, while an unknown force stopped Chaos Space short of the Human Realm.

• Jiang Liu forced the Shadow Void Creatures to retreat after their battle left him nearly drained.
• Jiang Liu found and dispersed the marks they had left on Chaos Space, but failed to notice a tiny black point of light approaching the Spirit Mother Tree.
• Jiang Liu moved Chaos Space through the Outer Void Layer without encountering any Void Creatures.
• The Golden Giant watched Chaos Space approach the Human Realm, recognized a familiar aura, and did not attack.
• A powerful force halted Chaos Space before it reached the Human Realm, so Jiang Liu planned to use the Divine Artifact Starship to ferry people between them.

Jiang Liu returned to the Human Realm after failing to locate the power repelling the Chaos Space, then hurried toward Qian Prefecture as the migration plan began affecting the realm. His arrival quieted suspicious factions and prompted those already informed of the coming crisis to gather for the migration.

• Jiang Liu entered the Human Realm but could not sense the power that repelled the Chaos Space, so he gave up probing and continued toward Qian Prefecture.
• Jiang Liu wondered whether the Golden Giant had sensed the approaching crisis, though its duty bound it to defend the Human Realm.
• Martial artists mistook Jiang Liu's pale-blue trail for a heavenly treasure, while rumors about his absence and the Star Cloud Holy Dynasty's withdrawal unsettled Jianghu factions.
• News of Jiang Liu's appearance spread across the country, causing many factions to quiet down rather than risk challenging him.
• Factions notified by Qin Bailian hurried toward Qian Province, hoping to migrate with Jiang Liu and escape the coming crisis.

Jiang Liu returned to Qian City and began the planned migration of the Human Race into the Chaos Space, starting with the Star Cloud Saint Sect. He set up forty Divine Artifact Starships for the Holy Dynasty’s relocation efforts, then returned to the Chaos Space to prepare a passage.

• Jiang Liu appeared above Qian City, reassured its people, and ordered the Star Cloud Saint Sect to migrate first.
• Qin Bailian reported that preparations were complete, and Jiang Liu assigned the Saint Sect members to help Gongsun Haoyue and Flowing Cloud Matriarch modify the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu placed forty Divine Artifact Starships in the imperial palace and considered how the migration could protect the Human Race from the coming crisis.
• Xinghe and Yuchi Yue confirmed that the Saint Sect disciples were ready to depart, and Jiang Liu told them he would notify them once he established a passage.
• Jiang Liu ordered Qin Bailian to select people to learn how to operate the Divine Artifact Starships, then returned to the Chaos Space.
