• Murong Yin told Jiang Liu that the Hall of Governmental Affairs wanted to change the era name, and he chose Xin Yuan.
• Jiang Liu sensed a change in the Chaos Space after announcing the new era name.

Jiang Liu discovered that changing the era name to Xin Yuan had caused the Chaos Space to evolve, and he went to the Hall of Governmental Affairs to investigate. Nangong Yun explained that the new era name would give ordinary people hope, but she privately knew there was more to the matter as the officials reported on martial artists’ movements.

• Jiang Liu confirmed that Xin Yuan would become the era name next year, and the officials accepted his decision.
• The officials reported on the movements of martial artists from various Jianghu forces, while Nangong Yun secretly felt relieved that Jiang Liu had not pressed her for more.

Nangong Yun revealed that she had used an inherited art of calculation to choose the new era name, and Jiang Liu saw that her decision had helped Chaos Space begin evolving. He entered the Winter Rest Palace to inspect the change, where energy was turning into spiritual energy, and then examined the palace with his Divine Sense.

• Jiang Liu saw blue specks appearing in the energy and realized Chaos Space was beginning to transform it into spiritual energy.
• The Winter Rest Palace Spirit calmed down and went to cultivate while Jiang Liu examined the Winter Rest Palace with his Divine Sense.

Jiang Liu discovered a remnant consciousness hidden in the Winter Rest Palace and was lured into its Black Mist trap. After striking the phantom with the Power of Time-Space Rule, he realized he might have found a new way to use that power.

• Jiang Liu sensed a faint aura at the sealed cavern entrance and suspected a powerful consciousness was concealed there.

• Jiang Liu struck through the Black Mist with Divine Strike and revealed a wounded phantom trapped by the Power of Time-Space Rule.
• Jiang Liu raised the Godslayer Blade again after sensing a new way to use the Power of Time-Space Rule.

Jiang Liu used the Power of Time-Space Rule to trap and seize the phantom, discovering a new way to apply his power. The phantom revealed itself as a Six-Winged War God inside Jiang Liu’s Spirit Sea Space and prepared to fight back.

• Jiang Liu reflected on his cultivation and decided to prioritize finding a way to reach the God Lord Realm as the void grew more dangerous.
• Jiang Liu struck the phantom with the Godslayer Blade, using the Power of Time-Space Rule to delay and seal the attack in space so the phantom could not evade it.
• Jiang Liu realized his new technique revealed deeper uses of the Power of Time-Space Rule, beyond merely increasing his attack power.
• Jiang Liu reached through twisted space and grabbed the phantom, which transformed into a stream of light and entered his Spirit Sea Space.
• Jiang Liu saw that the phantom was a six-winged birdman, while the trapped Six-Winged War God vowed that its clan was not so easily defeated.

Jiang Liu and his allies defeated the Six-Winged War God in his Divine Sea Space, and Jiang Liu absorbed its scattered consciousness. After returning to Winter Rest Palace, he refined the consciousness and stabilized his aura.

• The Six-Winged War God emerged from the void and sealed Jiang Liu’s Divine Sea Space with black light.
• The Golden-Winged Peng broke the seal, and a pale-blue figure struck the Six-Winged War God with a blade.
• Jiang Liu joined forces with the Chaos Space and the Golden-Winged Peng to defeat the weakened remnant of the Six-Winged War God.
• Jiang Liu collected the scattered black lights, swallowed them with a Divine Sea devouring mouth, and returned to Winter Rest Palace.
• Jiang Liu refined the Six-Winged War God’s consciousness with the Heavenly Evolution Codex, then frowned after his aura stabilized.

Jiang Liu learned fragmented information about the Void Overlord and deduced a likely location for its final battle with the Chaos God. He then confronted the Winter Rest Palace Spirit about its knowledge of the Six-Winged War God, and it offered to let him search its soul.

• Jiang Liu learned that the Six-Winged War God knew little about the Void Overlord, whose form was shrouded in Black Mist and whose aura had once driven Void Creatures to flee.
• Jiang Liu deduced that the Void Overlord might still be injured after fighting the Chaos God and realized the guarded gate had been a Gate of Void.
• Jiang Liu used a star map and the Chaos Divine Axe's guidance to identify a fixed star as the likely location of the Final Battleground.
• Jiang Liu discovered that the Winter Rest Palace Spirit had known about the Six-Winged War God but had never warned him.
• Jiang Liu pressured the Winter Rest Palace Spirit, which denied remembering the Six-Winged War God and offered to let him search its soul.

Jiang Liu confirmed the Winter Rest Palace Spirit had lost its memories of the Six-Winged War God and then received an image of the Chaos God fighting the Void Overlord. The brief image showed the two evenly matched, leaving Jiang Liu without an answer about how their battle ended.

• Jiang Liu withdrew the storm from the Winter Rest Palace Spirit’s sea of consciousness and decided to trust it, concluding that its fear of the Gate of Void came from forgotten memories.
• Jiang Liu left the Winter Rest Palace and received an urgent message from the Divine Soul of the Rule Statue.
• The Divine Soul of the Rule Statue showed Jiang Liu an image of the Chaos God and the Void Overlord fighting in a pitch-black void.
• Jiang Liu saw that the battle was evenly matched, but the image ended before either combatant won.

Jiang Liu discovered that the reconstituted Stone of Tianming had recorded the battle between the Chaos God and the Void Overlord, then tested its reaction in the void. The stone revealed living star stones, but went quiet along with them when Jiang Liu stored it away, leaving him to investigate the star stones directly.

• The Divine Soul of the Rule Statue gave Jiang Liu the cracked Stone of Tianming, which had recondensed and displayed an image of the Chaos God fighting the Void Overlord.
• Jiang Liu considered whether God Lord Tianming had recorded the battle, but concluded he likely did not know the location of the Final Battleground.
• The Rule God Lord explained that the Stone of Tianming had released the image and recondensed after arriving in the Chaos Space.
• Jiang Liu carried the stone into the void, where its seven-colored light revealed scattered star stones that appeared to harbor life.
• As Jiang Liu approached a point of light, the Stone of Tianming struggled to escape, and Jiang Liu restrained it with pale-blue light.
• Jiang Liu stored the Stone of Tianming in the System Space, after which the star stones fell silent and dimmed.

Jiang Liu and the Sky Devouring Cat encountered a gathering of Six-Winged War Gods around a star stone, which Jiang Liu suspected was their lair. As more of the space-wielding creatures converged, he prepared to fight while allowing the Sky Devouring Cat to battle and grow stronger.

• Jiang Liu sent the Sky Devouring Cat to kill a Void Creature while he approached a dim star stone.
• A Six-Winged War God emerged from the star stone’s black light, and Jiang Liu cut it down with the Godslayer Blade.
• Jiang Liu suspected the area was a Six-Winged War God lair connected to the Stone of Tianming, and he kept the stone stored away to avoid empowering them.
• More Six-Winged War Gods gathered, and Jiang Liu realized they wielded the Power of Space Rule and ranged from the Second-Order Divine Realm to the Supreme God Realm.
• The Sky Devouring Cat attacked the Six-Winged War Gods, eager to devour them, while Jiang Liu summoned dozens of pale-blue blades to join the fight.

Jiang Liu and the Sky Devouring Cat fought a group of Six-Winged War Gods, with Jiang Liu struggling to withstand their coordinated assault. A Golden-Winged Peng arrived to aid the cat as Jiang Liu prepared a formation of pale-blue blades against the warriors surrounding him.

• Jiang Liu sent pale-blue blades after the Six-Winged War Gods and attacked their strongest fighter with the Godslayer Blade.
• The Six-Winged War Gods counterattacked, and Jiang Liu struggled to defend himself while controlling his blades and protecting the Sky Devouring Cat.
• Jiang Liu withdrew the blades from their targets, allowing the remaining lower-ranked Six-Winged War Gods to surround the Sky Devouring Cat.
• The Sky Devouring Cat swallowed a Six-Winged War God, then nearly faced the surrounding group alone.
• A Golden-Winged Peng appeared and killed the leader attacking the Sky Devouring Cat, giving the cat a chance to fight back.
• Jiang Liu positioned dozens of pale-blue blades behind the Six-Winged War Gods surrounding him, and they sensed the formation's deadly intent.

Jiang Liu used a Five Elements Grand Killing Array to battle the Six-Winged War Gods, but they sacrificed themselves in a series of explosions to destroy the formation and kill him. Jiang Liu escaped into Chaos Space with the Golden-Winged Peng, while the surviving Six-Winged War Gods searched for him before an order made them hide again.

• Jiang Liu used Power of Rule Greatswords to form a Five Elements Grand Killing Array that suppressed the Six-Winged War Gods.
• The Six-Winged War Gods launched a coordinated attack, and one self-destructed to destroy a Time-Space Rule Greatsword and weaken Jiang Liu's formation.
• Several Six-Winged War Gods self-destructed to kill Jiang Liu, but he escaped into Chaos Space with the Golden-Winged Peng after alerting the Sky Devouring Cat.
• The Sky Devouring Cat vanished into the void, while the surviving Six-Winged War Gods searched the explosion site and found no trace of Jiang Liu.
• The Six-Winged War Gods received an order to stop searching, concealed themselves, and caused the surrounding star stones to dim.

Jiang Liu returned to Winter Rest Palace after escaping the Six-Winged War Gods and concluded that the Stone of Tianming had destroyed itself, preventing him from tracing the Chaos God through it. The Gate of Void reappeared, but its white mist blocked him, so he decided to investigate the Chaos Divine Axe and the Six-Winged War Gods before trying to enter.

• Jiang Liu returned safely to Chaos Space and reasoned that the Stone of Tianming had exposed the Six-Winged War Gods out of an old grudge before vanishing completely.
• Jiang Liu entered Winter Rest Palace, where the Winter Rest Palace Spirit told him the Gate of Void had appeared again.
• Jiang Liu approached the Gate of Void, but its white mist stopped him from advancing.
• Jiang Liu suspected the Chaos God had entered the Gate of Void after fighting the Void Overlord and that the Six-Winged War Gods had guarded it while their strength declined.
• Jiang Liu chose not to provoke the Gate of Void and decided to seek the Chaos Divine Axe or learn why the Six-Winged War Gods had stayed there.

Jiang Liu sent the Golden-Winged Peng to help the Sky Devouring Cat conceal its breakthrough while he returned to the Winter Rest Palace and resumed cultivating. The Sky Devouring Cat began advancing toward the Supreme God Realm, and Jiang Liu sensed that his own cultivation had changed as he prepared to search for the Chaos Divine Axe.

• Jiang Liu realized the Sky Devouring Cat was still outside and, unwilling to risk confronting the Six-Winged War Gods again, sent the Golden-Winged Peng to help it.
• The Golden-Winged Peng concealed itself in the void, found the Sky Devouring Cat, and learned that it had called for help because devouring several Six-Winged War Gods had brought on a breakthrough.
• The Golden-Winged Peng used its Space Rule to conceal the Sky Devouring Cat's breakthrough aura and protect it as it began advancing from the Third-Tier Divine Realm toward the Supreme God Realm.
• Jiang Liu returned to the Winter Rest Palace, wondered about the Gate of Void's connection to the Six-Winged War Gods, and began cultivating while waiting for the Sky Devouring Cat to finish breaking through.
• Jiang Liu sensed something different in his cultivation and immersed himself in it.

The Six-Winged War Gods struggled to contain the erupting Gate of Void, unaware that Jiang Liu had survived their attempt to kill him. As the gate’s white light threatened to pull them inside, the Sky Devouring Cat and Golden-Winged Peng concealed Jiang Liu’s presence while he absorbed Void Force.

• The Six-Winged War Gods guarded the Gate of Void, which had erupted with white light and thunderous sounds several days earlier.
• The Six-Winged War Gods recalled that everyone they had sent through the gate had vanished, and they joined forces to resist its pulling light.
• The Six-Winged War Gods believed Jiang Liu and his Guiding Stone had been destroyed, unaware that his arrival might be connected to the gate’s strange reaction.
• The Sky Devouring Cat and Golden-Winged Peng concealed their auras as Jiang Liu’s massive beast silhouette devoured Void Force.

The Sky Devouring Cat completed its breakthrough while the Golden-Winged Peng struggled to hide it from the Six-Winged War Gods. Its aura exposed their location, and enemies began closing in.

• The Golden-Winged Peng concealed the Sky Devouring Cat as it spent three days absorbing Void Force and advancing toward the Supreme God Realm.
• The Golden-Winged Peng grew exhausted from maintaining the Space Rule while Six-Winged War Gods searched the area.
• The Golden-Winged Peng reflected on the Sky Devouring Cat’s ability to cultivate across the Three Realms, unlike other exotic beasts.
• A powerful spatial fluctuation approached and stopped at a distance, prompting the Golden-Winged Peng to consider fleeing.
• The Sky Devouring Cat’s breakthrough shattered the Golden-Winged Peng’s spatial concealment and released a powerful aura.
• Six-Winged War Gods cried out and rushed toward them from all directions.

After breaking through, the Sky Devouring Cat slaughtered the approaching Six-Winged War Gods and headed for the starstone tied to the Gate of Void. Jiang Liu decided to follow, while the Gate of Void’s growing white light erased its defenders and they received word of an external invasion.

• The Sky Devouring Cat emerged from its breakthrough and devoured several Six-Winged War Gods, stabilizing its new realm as it fought.
• The Golden-Winged Peng recovered, then flew toward the starstone and used its mental bond to report the situation to Jiang Liu.
• Jiang Liu recognized the starstone’s familiar aura as connected to the Gate of Void and decided to investigate with the Sky Devouring Cat.
• White light from the Gate of Void intensified and erased Six-Winged War Gods who could not evade it.
• The Six-Winged War Gods resisting the light received a message that an external enemy had invaded.

The Six-Winged War Gods struggled to suppress the Gate of Void while the Sky Devouring Cat and Golden-Winged Peng attacked them before the starstone. Jiang Liu secretly approached the battle from within the void.

• The Six-Winged War Gods suspected Jiang Liu had returned but stayed to suppress the expanding white light from the Gate of Void.
• The Sky Devouring Cat reached the starstone and faced several Supreme God Realm Six-Winged War Gods blocking its path.
• The Golden-Winged Peng appeared beside the Sky Devouring Cat, and the Six-Winged War Gods attacked as the two sides began battling.
• The Golden-Winged Peng joined the fight, and Jiang Liu secretly drew closer through the void.

Jiang Liu investigated a second Gate of Void and suspected it was connected to the Void Overlord and God Lord Tianming. When the Soul-Seizing Lamp absorbed a trace of black aura and exposed his presence, he escaped to the Nether Realm, leaving the Six-Winged War God to contain the expanding gate.

• Jiang Liu realized the starstone concealed another Gate of Void guarded by a Six-Winged War God and suspected the gate might be part of a plot targeting Chaos God.
• Jiang Liu approached the starstone while Sky Devouring Cat and Golden-Winged Peng fought six Six-Winged War Gods at the Supreme God Realm.
• Jiang Liu summoned the Soul-Seizing Lamp and connected its seven-colored light and the Stone of Tianming to God Lord Tianming.
• The Soul-Seizing Lamp absorbed a strand of black aura, causing the starstone to blaze and reveal a colossal figure, so Jiang Liu escaped to the boundary wall of the Nether Realm.
• A Six-Winged War God searched for Jiang Liu, then returned to resist the Gate of Void as its white light grew brighter.

Jiang Liu learned that the Soul-Seizing Lamp had devoured a remnant of God Lord Tianming’s soul and discovered that Tianming had forged the lamp to carry out a scheme in the Nether Realm. After learning that the Gate of Void was likely keeping many Six-Winged War Gods occupied, Jiang Liu returned to the Chaos Space to check on the Sky Devouring Cat and the Golden-Winged Peng.

• The Soul-Seizing Lamp told Jiang Liu that the black aura it devoured had been a remnant soul of God Lord Tianming and revealed Tianming as its true master.
• Jiang Liu learned that Tianming had been born in the Nether Realm before Chaos Space split and had forged the Soul-Seizing Lamp to lay out a scheme there.
• Jiang Liu realized Tianming’s remnant soul had helped the Stone of Tianming reform, then hidden itself after the Rule Statue’s Divine Soul failed to destroy it.
• Jiang Liu sensed that the Sky Devouring Cat and the Golden-Winged Peng were alive but weakened, and concluded that Six-Winged War Gods inside the star stone were likely occupied with the Gate of Void.
• Jiang Liu placed the stabilized Soul-Seizing Lamp in the System Space and traversed back to the Chaos Space.
