• Professor Zou brought Zhang Zhi's class to the Mind Devourer Region, where they learned that the Mind Devourers had assembled two Main God Realm true bodies, twelve avatars, and more than thirty Half-Step Main Deities.

After returning from the Mind Devourer battlefield, Zhang Zhi prepared for the Small World’s Heaven and Earth Trial and watched its mecha-equipped armies fight their first real battle. The first five waves exposed mecha failures and tested military coordination, and the final wave began.

• Zhang Zhi took five hundred divine cores and twenty-one Crystals of the World from the Activity Center shop, saving the high-rank crystals he left behind.
• Zhang Zhi entered the Small World as the Heaven and Earth Trial began, and its armies used mechas to defeat the first wave of nearly five million Ordinary Realm monsters.
• The second and third waves revealed fewer mecha power failures and showed that commanders protected malfunctioning mechas rather than abandoning them.
• Zhang Zhi observed mechas struggle against Mortal Transformation Realm monsters in close combat, while their ranged attacks proved highly effective.
• The Small World’s cultivators and mechas coordinated against eighty million Extraordinary Realm monsters in the fourth wave.
• The Small World used Spiritual Energy Annihilation Cannons to clear the fifth wave, including three Demigod Realm Chaos Monsters, before the final wave arrived.

Zhang Zhi and the Small World survived the final wave of the Heaven and Earth Trial, which brought nearly a billion Chaos Monsters and seven Weak Divine Power Realm monsters. After the trial, he collected five Light Spheres and discovered a Spiritual Mountain (Small), a World Trait, and a Beginner Spiritual Treasure Forging Manual, which he decided to give to Fang Qi.

• Chaos Qi surged into the Small World and unleashed the final wave of nearly a billion Chaos Monsters.
• The Small World's cultivators fought for two days and two nights, killing more than fifty thousand Legendary Realm monsters and over two thousand Demigod Realm monsters; three Fang Yuns killed the final Weak Divine Power Realm monster among the seven that appeared.
• The trial ended, and Zhang Zhi saw that the Chaos Qi had pushed the Small World diagonally, leaving it roughly one hundred kilometers farther from the Main World Wreckage.
• Zhang Zhi collected five Light Spheres and found that one contained Spiritual Mountain (Small).
• Zhang Zhi absorbed a World Trait and examined the Beginner Spiritual Treasure Forging Manual, which described nine powerful treasures, including the Nine Dragon Overturning Mountain Seal and the God Slaying Gourd.
• Zhang Zhi decided that the forging manual would go to Fang Qi.

Zhang Zhi opened the remaining Light Spheres, found a second Small Broken Bell, an unknown seed, and the Mahayana Sutra, and decided to develop the Bald Path in the Spiritual Treasure Small World. After waiting through the Heaven and Earth Feedback, he watched the two bells fuse and saw that the Small Broken Bell had repaired some of its cracks.

• Zhang Zhi found a second Small Broken Bell, which began merging with the one above his head and devouring it to repair its damage.
• Zhang Zhi found a seed of unknown origin and the Mahayana Sutra, then decided to send the scripture and Spiritual Mountain to the Spiritual Treasure Small World to develop the Bald Path.
• Zhang Zhi gave Fang Qi the Beginner Spiritual Treasure Refinement Manual, and Fang Qi became engrossed in it.
• Zhang Zhi examined an unfamiliar, complex World Trait pattern and waited for the Heaven and Earth Feedback while cultivators cleared the battlefield.
• The two Small Broken Bells completed their fusion, and Zhang Zhi saw that the remaining bell had fewer cracks and a small area without any.

Zhang Zhi watched the Qi Refinement Small World expand dramatically during a Heaven and Earth Feedback, even as its new land collided with a Main World Wreckage. After estimating its vast new size, he began planning cards to develop the world and discovered it was devouring the wreckage more efficiently.

• The Chaos Qi surged into the Small World, triggering a Heaven and Earth Feedback that rapidly expanded its land.
• Zhang Zhi watched the Small World collide with a Main World Wreckage and estimated that its expansion would continue despite the obstruction.
• The Qi Refinement Small World reached a diameter of nearly eighty thousand kilometers and an area of roughly five billion square kilometers.
• Zhang Zhi sent Professor Confucius an update about his advancement, then planned cards to refine into the Small World.
• Zhang Zhi inspected the newly formed land and saw that the Small World was devouring the Main World Wreckage more efficiently than before.

Zhang Zhi discovered that the new World Trait greatly accelerated the Qi Refinement Small World’s growth, named it Creation of Heaven and Earth, and upgraded the Trial Tower to Tier 4 with expanded trading floors and Key Cards. Back in the Main World, he began cultivating the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique while still waiting for Professor Confucius to reply.

• Zhang Zhi found that Chaos Qi had generated more than eight kilometers of new land in a day and concluded that his new World Trait had dramatically increased the Small World’s growth.
• Zhang Zhi named the World Trait Creation of Heaven and Earth and recognized that it gave the Small World a chance to become the Multiverse’s sole world.
• Zhang Zhi upgraded the Trial Tower to Tier 4, increased the Key Card exchange limit, and opened new trading floors with Blue and Purple Rank goods.

• Zhang Zhi checked the Tier 5 upgrade requirements, decided not to pursue them soon, and returned to the Main World.
• Zhang Zhi continued cultivating the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique after Professor Confucius still did not respond.

Zhang Zhi took his class to fight Mind Devourers and summoned Fang Yun, whose overwhelming strength turned the battle around and revealed the power of the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique. The chapter ended with Zhang Zhi confirming to Zixia, Liu Wanwan, and Liu Xiaoxiao that Fang Yun cultivated the same technique he had given the women.

• Zhang Zhi observed that his Qi Refinement Small World was expanding and consuming World Wreckage, while Liu Wanwan and Liu Xiaoxiao continued struggling to cultivate the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique.
• During Combat Class, Professor Zou told the students that Mind Devourers had reinforced a Great Thousand World after humanity's failed assault, and Zhang Zhi suspected the human Main Gods were protecting an advancement to a Main World.
• Professor Zou led the class to invade a Mind Devourer Lesser Thousand World, where seven Weak Divine Power Mind Devourers used formations to strengthen their Charm and Enslavement spells.
• Zhang Zhi summoned Fang Yun, who used his divine abilities to kill a Mind Devourer in the Deity Realm, break the formation, and slaughter the Mind Devourers.
• Zixia asked Zhang Zhi how Fang Yun had advanced and gained his divine abilities, and Zhang Zhi confirmed that Fang Yun cultivated the same technique he had given Liu Wanwan and Liu Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Zhi explained the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique’s divine abilities and its benefits for Masters of the World, then planned to have Fengjing University verify and promote it. Zixia learned that the technique could only be cultivated by humans, but Zhang Zhi offered to teach her the other cultivation technique its divine abilities came from.

• Zhang Zhi told Liu Wanwan and Liu Xiaoxiao that the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique could grant divine abilities as practitioners advanced and improve Mental Power recovery.
• Zhang Zhi explained how Fang Yun’s Three Heads Six Arms and One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones divine abilities worked, while Zixia warned the women that the latter would be difficult to comprehend.

• Zixia asked whether she could cultivate the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique, and Zhang Zhi said it was limited to humans.
• Zhang Zhi offered to teach Zixia the other cultivation technique from which the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique had borrowed its divine abilities.

Fang Yun swiftly defeated the Mind Devourers in one Lesser Thousand World, while Zhang Zhi learned that their formations might be connected to a mysterious Great Thousand World and an alien race. Back in the Main World, Zhang Zhi resumed his routine and discovered that his jade gate collection task had risen to the top of the Trial Tower Task Center.

• Fang Yun crushed most of the Mind Devourers in the first Lesser Thousand World, and the class cleared it in less than a day.
• Professor Zou led the class to another Lesser Thousand World, where they spent a week learning to counter the Mind Devourers' formation before defeating them.
• Zhang Zhi told Professor Zou that the formation's spread seemed linked to the Mind Devourers' war with humanity, and Professor Zou revealed that it was connected to the Great Thousand World and possibly an alien race.
• Zhang Zhi inferred that a professor was preparing to advance to the Main World, and Professor Zou neither confirmed nor denied his guess.
• The class eliminated the remaining Mind Devourers, and Professor Zou left the Lesser Thousand World burning with Fire Dragon Burning the World.
• Liu Wanwan and Liu Xiaoxiao began cultivating the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique, while Zhang Zhi later found his jade gate collection task featured at the Trial Tower Task Center.

Zhang Zhi merged another Jade Gate into the Underworld and revealed to Yang that the complete Six Paths of Reincarnation Gate could control the reincarnation of souls across the Multiverse. After increasing the Jade Gate mission reward, he returned to the Main World and advanced to the Mortal Transformation Realm, where he manifested three identical copies of himself.

• Zhang Zhi retrieved the submitted Jade Gate and merged it with the gate in the Underworld, drawing the attention of the mysterious Evil Creature and Yang.
• Zhang Zhi told Yang that the Six Paths of Reincarnation Gate could direct souls into chosen races and determine the future strength of the Multiverse.
• After the Jade Gates merged, Zhang Zhi observed that the larger gate accelerated the Underworld's erosion and increased the mission reward to attract more fragments.
• Zhang Zhi returned to the Main World and spent more than forty days preparing to advance to the Mortal Transformation Realm.
• Zhang Zhi completed his breakthrough and displayed the divine ability by creating three identical versions of himself before Zixia and the other two women.

Zhang Zhi demonstrated how difficult it was to distinguish the incarnations created by One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, deepening Liu Wanwan and Liu Xiaoxiao’s interest in the technique. During Combat Class, the students learned that the Mind Devourers had enslaved a Beastman Main God, and Zhang Zhi returned to school with humanity’s Main Gods’ plans still unknown.

• Zhang Zhi withdrew his incarnations after Liu Wanwan, Liu Xiaoxiao, and Zixia failed to identify his original body, and Zixia praised the Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique.

• Professor Zou received a Flying Crane Message during Combat Class and recalled the students after learning that the Mind Devourers had enslaved the Beastman Race’s Main God.
• Professor Zou inspected the Great Thousand World for two days, then ended Combat Class and sent the students back to school.
• A student suggested that the Great Thousand World might be a trap designed to let the Mind Devourers control more Main Gods, and Zhang Zhi considered the theory while remaining uncertain about humanity’s absent Main Gods.

Zhang Zhi surveyed the Qi Refinement Small World as Fang Yuanyi became its second cultivator to reach the Deity Realm and the Research Institute neared its first nuclear weapon test. He left the Trial Tower planning to enter the Trial Battlefield.

• Zhang Zhi worried that the Mind Devourer’s enslavement of a foreign Main Deity and the human Main Deities’ continued silence could tip the war, then followed his usual routine of cultivation and clearing pollution from his Consciousness Sea Space.
• Zhang Zhi learned that Fang Yuanyi had become the Small World’s second Weak Divine Power Realm expert, bringing renewed standing to the Immortal Cultivation Path.
• Explorers found uranium ore in the Main World Wreckage, allowing the Research Institute to approach its first nuclear weapon test after years of work.
• Zhang Zhi inspected the Small World’s cultivation paths, saw Fang Yun teaching the improved Mystic Pure Qi Cultivation Technique at Mount Buzhou, and found Fang Long still studying zombies in Medicine City.
• Zhang Zhi checked the Trial Tower’s Trading Market, where seventy-three divine nuclei had been exchanged but no Crystals of the World, then stepped into the Trial Battlefield Teleportation Array.

Zhang Zhi arrived in a new World Region and joined the local cultivators defending a human city from foreign races. After learning that Sun-Moon Stones could counter Evil Charms, he questioned what the strange and Evil Charms meant for the region, then flew with the assembled forces toward the city walls.

• Zhang Zhi arrived at the Trial Plaza, received a briefing, and learned that the city was a human strategic stronghold resisting the Jia Race and a Yaksha Race branch.
• Zhang Zhi registered with the city's defenders, collected supplies, and examined a Sun-Moon Stone that contained laws unfamiliar to him.
• Wang Zhushan told Zhang Zhi that Sun-Moon Stone powder could break an Evil Charm's spell and that its light could dispel the strange.
• Zhang Zhi wondered why this World Region had strange and Evil Charms, then chatted with Wang Zhushan to seek more information.
• Zhang Zhi joined nearly two thousand cultivators as local Legendary Realm cultivators led them toward the city walls.

Zhang Zhi observed the humans’ fighting methods and learned from Wang Zhushan about the Jia Race’s expendable lower ranks and their path to survival. When the Soul-Startling Bell announced an approaching Eerie Calamity, the cultivators were urged to flee, but their leader chose to stay with his family.

• Zhang Zhi watched the human cultivators fight and inferred that their energy made close combat effective while archers handled long-range attacks.
• Wang Zhushan explained that the Jia Race’s upper ranks sent low-ranking members into battle to expend their numbers, while survivors who reached the Legendary Realm could join the ruling class.
• Zhang Zhi observed repeated Jia Race assaults that left more than a million corpses outside the city, while some surviving attackers were allowed to retreat.
• The Soul-Startling Bell rang, prompting high-ranking Jia Race members and the nearby Yaksha Race to flee as the city’s cultivators recognized an approaching Eerie Calamity.
• The cultivator leading Zhang Zhi’s group told everyone to return through the Trial Tower, but he stayed because his family was in the city.

Zhang Zhi learned that a horde of blood-colored eerie entities was attacking the city and that its defenses could not hold. He revealed overwhelming power by destroying the horde’s Weak Divine Power entity with one sword, leaving the city’s people and Wang Zhushan stunned.

• A blood-colored sky curtain surrounded the city, and a Legendary Realm cultivator warned that the Sun-Moon Grand Array could hold it for only three minutes before urging everyone toward the Trial Tower.
• Wang Zhushan explained to Zhang Zhi that blood-colored eerie entities gathered in groups, grew by consuming Intelligent Lifeforms, and could turn their victims into more of their kind.
• A gigantic head clung to the azure barrier, screamed, and smashed it apart, allowing the blood-colored sky curtain to descend on the city.
• Zhang Zhi chose to protect the city, appeared before the enormous head, and summoned a thousand-zhang Flying Sword condensed from Sword Intent.
• Zhang Zhi cleaved the Blood Curtain in two and erased the eerie entities within it, while the people below watched in disbelief and Wang Zhushan recognized him.

Zhang Zhi saved Golden Lock City by striking the Blood-Colored Sky Curtain, then asked Ning Wuren about the World Region and its eerie entities. He learned that the human race was struggling to hold territory and that nine Eerie Lands surrounded the region near the city, hinting at a vast hidden secret.

• Zhang Zhi sent Six Paths of Reincarnation cultivators into the motionless Blood-Colored Sky Curtain to investigate the eerie entities.
• Ning Wuren and Golden Lock City's higher-ups approached Zhang Zhi, and Ning thanked him for saving the city.
• Zhang Zhi told Ning Wuren he had come from beyond the domain through a Trial Battlefield and asked about the strength of the human race and its rivals.
• Ning Wuren explained that humans occupied twenty-four nearby worlds, while seventeen powerful non-human races had Intermediate Divine Power Realm experts.
• Ning Wuren said eerie entities came from Eerie Lands filled with deadly Eerie Creatures, and revealed that nine Eerie Lands surrounded the region near Golden Lock City.

Zhang Zhi considered the origins of the Eerie Lands and speculated that they were remnants of a world that had failed to advance beyond the Main World Rank. After confirming that the eerie came from world wreckage, he agreed to explain the Multiverse to Ning Wuren and his companions.

• Ning Wuren told Zhang Zhi that the region he knew was surrounded by nine Eerie Lands and that more than a hundred might exist across the World Region.
• Zhang Zhi reasoned that the Eerie Lands could be remnants of a single world that had failed to advance beyond the Main World Rank.
• Zhang Zhi considered whether the Multiverse was showing him the dangers of advancing beyond the Main God Realm or Main World, and decided he might tell the human race about the region.
• Zhang Zhi confirmed to Ning Wuren that the eerie were the same kind he knew and explained that Eerie Lands came from wreckage of Half-Step Main Worlds and Main Worlds.
• Ning Wuren asked Zhang Zhi about his origins and other worlds, and Zhang Zhi invited him to gather his companions so he could explain the Multiverse.

Zhang Zhi learned that the Blood-Colored Sky Curtain was fading after he killed the powerful eerie entity behind it, and his Retainers began clearing out the remaining threats. He questioned Ning Wuren about the local cultivation path and Charm, then resolved to uncover why a world that had advanced beyond the Main World had been destroyed before humanity repeated its fate.

• Zhang Zhi explained the Human Race Main World and other World Regions to Ning Wuren and the people nearby, prompting them to reconsider how little they knew of the wider multiverse.
• A Six Paths of Reincarnation Retainer reported that the Blood-Colored Sky Curtain contained eerie entities and affected souls, but its special rule was dissipating after Zhang Zhi killed its source.
• Zhang Zhi summoned more than twenty Legendary Realm Retainers to help clear the remaining eerie entities and assured Ning Wuren and the others that the Blood-Colored Sky Curtain would fade.
• Ning Wuren described the local humans' cultivation method, which only reached the Weak Divine Power Realm, and explained that Charm seemed to be an eerie variant that attacked through illusions and possession.
• Zhang Zhi concluded that the local humans were too weak to explore the Eerie Lands and resolved to find a way to investigate the destruction of the world that had once advanced beyond the Main World.
