Chapter Summaries

Mu Yuan built a permanent Space Tunnel linking the southern Ten Directions Island Domain to Tian Yuan City and invited Cold Moon City Lord to discuss a cross-domain connection. Cold Moon inspected the tunnel and arrived at Tian Yuan City, where its immense scale astonished her.

• Daisy led a merchant caravan through the new Space Tunnel in only two minutes and praised how comfortable the journey was.
• Cold Moon City Lord offered the Elf Courtyard as the tunnel’s spatial mineral source, provided she could inspect Tian Yuan City and Cold Moon City received the first cross-domain passage.
• Mu Yuan agreed to arrange an inspection and considered Cold Moon City a powerful ally for the new transport network.
• Cold Moon City Lord flew to the southern end of the Ten Directions Island Domain, where Dora guided her into the Space Tunnel.
• Cold Moon City Lord inspected the stable, spacious passage and traveled through it to the Tian Yuan City region.
• Cold Moon City Lord saw Tian Yuan City from above and exclaimed that it was even bigger than Cold Moon City.

The Cold Moon City Lord visited Tian Yuan City, negotiated a fifty-fifty split for a Space Tunnel, and helped establish the framework for a broader Tunnel Alliance. The alliance still needed to choose a third cooperating lord, while Cold Moon left impressed by Tian Yuan City’s defenses despite realizing she had met only Mu Yuan’s divine-soul avatar.

• The Cold Moon City Lord surveyed Tian Yuan City and marveled at its scale, orderly streets, prosperous residents, and ongoing construction.
• Daisy negotiated with Shelly and secured an equal division of Space Tunnel maintenance and transit fees, along with land deeds in Central Town for Cold Moon City.
• Daisy outlined toll checkpoints and low transit rates, while the leaders agreed that another Central Hub City would be needed to connect the wider domains.
• The Cold Moon City Lord proposed selecting a proxy lord through the authorities and favored choosing from the alliance’s younger-generation lords, including Liu Shi or Qingxin.
• Mu Yuan and the Cold Moon City Lord agreed on the Tunnel Alliance’s framework, but postponed choosing its third cooperating lord.
• The Cold Moon City Lord toured Tian Yuan City, approved of its formidable defenses, and realized that the Mu Yuan before her was only a divine-soul avatar.

Mu Yuan prepared Tian Yuan City for the Space Tunnel’s opening, assigning Lu Liu to strengthen territorial defenses as the city’s importance and population grew. Meanwhile, a wave of breakthroughs produced several new Legendary Realm existences, leaving Bone Thirty-Three unable to find an available breakthrough site.

• Mu Yuan reviewed the benefits of the coming Space Tunnel and told Lu Liu to organize Tian Yuan City’s defenses, assigning him thirty Legendary Realm existences.
• Four Fourth-Order Extreme legendary seeds prepared to break through, and Undead Bone Lord Zero Seven and Fearless War Marshal Lao Liu began their transformations in Dragon Hill Fertile Soil Mystic Realm.
• A third Legendary Realm breakthrough occurred at the Ice Heart Lotus Platform, prompting celebration among Tian Yuan City’s residents.
• After that transformation finished, another breakthrough began at the same site just hours later, astonishing residents and officials from neighboring powers.
• Bone Thirty-Three applied to break through, but every available breakthrough site was occupied, so the staff offered to schedule it for the following morning.

Mu Yuan oversaw the Legendary evolutions of Red Robe and Seventeen, whose new abilities gave Tian Yuan City powerful illusion and long-range striking capabilities. He then began Uta’s evolution, which offered the paths of Giant Dragon Strength King or Limit Breaking Martial Sovereign.

• Tian Yuan City's wave of Legendary breakthroughs peaked and passed, while Lu the Sixth General and Treant Grandmother entered the Divine Soul Realm.
• Mu Yuan sealed the Dragon Hill Fertile Soil Mystic Realm and began Legendary evolution rituals for Red Robe, Seventeen, and Uta.
• Red Robe evolved into the one-star Legendary Netherworld Ghost King and gained Supreme Illusionary Skyfiend, which let her create potent illusions and manifest enemies’ inner demons.
• Seventeen evolved into the one-star Legendary Polar Star Monarch and gained Celestial Star Imprint, allowing her to mark targets for long-range attacks and travel through space to those marks.
• Uta began his evolution, and the available paths appeared as Giant Dragon Strength King and Limit Breaking Martial Sovereign.

Uta evolved into the Legendary Limit Breaking Martial Sovereign and broke through to the Divine Soul Realm with a single punch, nearly damaging the Dragon Hill Fertile Soil Mystic Realm. Mu Yuan then assessed Tian Yuan City's growing strength and the difficulty of unleashing the Ancient Mage Tower's second level of power.

• Mu Yuan chose the Limit Breaking Martial Sovereign evolution path for Uta, whose Flesh Shackles transformed to allow eight breaks.
• Uta became a one-star Legendary Lifeform and gained the Legendary Might Physical Universe, then severed all eight shackles and prepared a full-powered punch.
• Mu Yuan summoned Dora, who used Devouring Heaven and Earth to contain Uta's punch as he broke through to the Legendary Divine Soul Realm.
• Mu Yuan decided that future Legendary evolutions would take place in the World Vine Great Mystic Realm and noted that Uta's evolution had consumed 1,500,000 Miracle Power.
• Mu Yuan and Isroya discussed Tian Yuan City's upcoming territory promotion, its growing number of Legendary experts, and the difficulty of assembling the team needed to activate the Ancient Mage Tower's second level.

Mu Yuan reflected on Tian Yuan City's combat strength and learned that reaching the Saint Realm required each Peak of Law Realm existence to discover and walk a unique Road to Sainthood. He left Lapis facing the challenge of finding her own path, with no one able to tell her what it was.

• Mu Yuan assessed Tian Yuan City's forces and concluded that neither Lapis nor the Ancient Mage Tower could yet contend with Saint Realm existences, though the tower's second layer might eventually match them.
• Mu Yuan recalled how Old Man Lin explained that Tai Xuan had no true Saint Realm breakthroughs and that the four national pillars had gained their power by binding themselves to the Alliance.
• Old Man Lin told Mu Yuan that Duke Bei Ting was Tai Xuan's likeliest candidate for breaking through and described the three stages of the Road to Sainthood: finding a path, walking it, and continuing to its end.
• Mu Yuan explained to Lapis that the Road to Sainthood had to be unique to each person, citing a Dragon King and the Duel King as examples of different paths.
• Mu Yuan asked whether Lapis could find her own Road to Sainthood.

Mu Yuan and Cold Moon established a World Tunnel connecting Cold Moon City in the vicissitudes Great Domain to Tian Yuan City, completing the first cross-domain passage. After the journey took only ten minutes for ordinary travelers, Shen Linglong arrived in Tian Yuan City and was stunned by how much it had changed.

• Mu Yuan considered how Lapis might find her path to the summit, but she struggled to come up with an idea after he left.
• Mu Yuan brought a World Vine origin-seed clone to Cold Moon City and, with Cold Moon's approval, used it to begin constructing a World Tunnel through the Elven Courtyard mystic realm.
• The World Vine drew on the mystic realm's spatial power, shrinking and damaging it as it formed a tunnel between Cold Moon City and Tian Yuan City.
• Mu Yuan and the others crossed the new tunnel in one minute, and Mu Yuan estimated that ordinary travelers would take ten minutes.
• Shen Linglong offered to show the group around Tian Yuan City, then rubbed her eyes in disbelief at the enormous city before them.

The World Tunnel Alliance opened routes linking Tian Yuan City, Cold Moon City, Liu Shi City, and Qing Xin City, and its leaders tested the tunnel’s safety and organized patrols. The Sword Casting Lord traveled through the tunnel to Tian Yuan City, where he was stunned to meet a friend from another Great Domain.

• Mu Yuan explained that the Serpent Path could withstand attacks from Legendary experts, and the four cities assigned elite patrol teams to the tunnels.
• The Sword Casting Lord learned that Cold Moon City’s World Tunnel had opened and traveled there to seek high-grade materials.
• After registering at Cold Moon City Station, the Sword Casting Lord and his group entered the tunnel and saw its perilous void, patrol teams, and Legendary guards.
• The group reached the other end in minutes and wondered whether they had arrived in Tian Yuan City.
• The Sword Casting Lord recognized the Red Copper Lord, his friend from the West Wilderness Great Domain, and realized the tunnel made travel between Great Domains extraordinarily easy.

Mu Yuan’s Central Town prospered as allied cities and merchants established bases there, drawing the attention of Heavenly Dragon Corporation. A Heavenly Dragon subordinate tried to investigate the World Tunnel and sneak into Tian Yuan City, but its many Legendary Realm guards caught him before he could get inside.

• Mu Yuan surveyed Central Town, where Cold Moon City, Qing Xin City, Liu Shi City, and powerful merchants had established bases and businesses.
• A subordinate of Heavenly Dragon City Lord reported that Central Town was cutting into Heavenly Dragon Corporation’s profits and decided to investigate the World Tunnel’s weaknesses.
• The dark-skinned man found Legendary Realm experts guarding the tunnel station, patrol roads, and Tian Yuan City’s gates as he searched for the tunnel’s core.
• He joined the line at Tian Yuan City’s southern gate registration office, where Holy Light Sage Tina reviewed applicants’ documents.
• Public Security Bureau officers, wall patrol soldiers, and a passing merchant caravan revealed themselves as more Legendary Realm experts, and the dark-skinned man lost consciousness after hearing bells.

Mu Yuan launched Tian Yuan Territory’s advancement from a Level 6 small city to a Level 7 large city after the World Tunnel transformed trade and Heavenly Dragon Corporation’s influence collapsed. The advancement expanded Tian Yuan City and its mystic realms, while a heavenly baptism blessed residents and visitors alike and gathered a river of miraculous light.

• Heavenly Dragon City Lord rallied his allies against the World Tunnel Alliance, but Nanshan Lord rejected him and ordered cooperation with Tian Yuan City instead.
• The World Tunnel drew enormous crowds, reached capacity, and boosted business in Cold Moon City, Liu Shi City, Qing Xin City, and Tian Yuan City.
• Heavenly Dragon Corporation suffered suspended partnerships, sealed factories, legal charges, and falling business, leaving Heavenly Dragon City Lord shocked and desperate.
• Mu Yuan confirmed that Tian Yuan Territory met its advancement requirements and chose to spend 50,000 Soul Crystals to advance it to Level 7.
• Tian Yuan Territory expanded along with its troop-building mystic realms, while ancient trees and river fish transformed and dragonfish leaped from the water.
• The advancement’s heavenly baptism empowered Tian Yuan’s troops and residents, healed and strengthened visiting professionals, and gathered miraculous light across the land.

Mu Yuan gathered a record 7.5 million Miracle Power during Tian Yuan City's advancement to a Seventh Level Territory, bringing his total to 10.5 million, and the advancement inspired outsiders and ordinary readers across Taixuan. Three days later, Deathbone evolved to Legendary Three-Star, but the notification unexpectedly identified him as a Perfect Legendary Lifeform.

• Mu Yuan gathered Miracle Power at 100% efficiency during Tian Yuan City's advancement and reached a total of 10.5 million points.
• The Rain of Baptism benefited Tian Yuan City residents, outsiders, and its troops, while reporter Cheng Wei wrote an article about Mu Yuan's vision and dedication.
• Zhang San read Cheng Wei's article, regained his determination, and resolved to become stronger and eventually travel to Tian Yuan City.
• Mu Yuan reviewed Tian Yuan City's growth after the advancement and decided to spend three million Miracle Power evolving Deathbone.
• Deathbone evolved to Legendary Three-Star in the World Vine Mystic Realm, and a notification declared him a Perfect Legendary Lifeform.

Deathbone evolved into a Perfect Legendary Lifeform, granting it national destiny and greatly expanding its powers over death and resurrection. As Mu Yuan began evolving Tian Yuan City’s troops, the Mysterious Merchant Kiye set out to visit him again.

• Mu Yuan recognized the world’s favor bestowed by Deathbone’s evolution as national destiny, which Tian Yuan Territory could use as a powerful but nonrenewable trump card.
• Deathbone’s Undead Bone Sacred Mountain became an independent Underworld on Earth, and its rebirth concept advanced enough to revive non-undead without turning them into undead.
• Deathbone balanced its powers of death and resurrection, creating the Life and Death Cycle that let its army repeatedly return to battle.
• Deathbone evolved into a Perfect Legendary Lifeform, transforming Undead Calamity Breath so its aura of death strengthened undead, suppressed other lifeforms, and spread Deathbone’s power across marked areas.
• Mu Yuan postponed further Legendary evolution and began a costly campaign to evolve hundreds of Epic troops.
• Kiye, now a high-ranking Mysterious Merchant with his own caravan, traveled toward Tian Yuan Territory to reunite with Mu Yuan and bring him new goods.

Mysterious Merchant Kiye returned to Tian Yuan Territory and was astonished by how much it had grown into Tian Yuan City. After Mu Yuan bought goods from Kiye, Kiye gave him a black-and-gold card granting access to the Mysterious Merchant Alliance All-Heavens Trade Platform, then departed.

• Kiye led his caravan through the white mist toward Tian Yuan Territory, expecting to visit the small town he remembered.
• Kiye and his followers reached Tian Yuan City and were stunned by its immense walls, advanced defenses, bustling streets, and several Legendary Realm powerhouses welcoming them.
• Mu Yuan hosted Kiye at a banquet, then purchased more than a dozen Outstanding Grade blueprints and various other goods from his shop.
• Kiye presented Mu Yuan with a black-and-gold VIP card that opened a secret realm leading to the Mysterious Merchant Alliance All-Heavens Trade Platform.
• Mu Yuan accepted the card, and Kiye's caravan left Tian Yuan City and disappeared into the white mist.

Mu Yuan activated the Mysterious Merchant Alliance VIP Card and entered the Mysterious Land, where first-time visitors received points based on their identity and status. Wu Ming and Jin Xiang also entered the Mysterious Land with their master, the Ancient Sword Divine Lord, and watched their own point determinations begin.

• Mu Yuan used the Mysterious Merchant Alliance VIP Card to create a VIP Platform gate at his territory’s Lord Altar.
• Wu Ming and Jin Xiang climbed the sword-shaped mountain to meet their master, the Ancient Sword Divine Lord, who invited them to visit the Mysterious Land.
• The Ancient Sword Divine Lord led Wu Ming and Jin Xiang through the Mysterious Land’s entrance and explained its identity-concealing rules and opportunities.
• Wu Ming and Jin Xiang entered the Mysterious Land, where they saw powerful figures from across the world and began receiving their first Mysterious Points.
• Mu Yuan entered the Mysterious Land, and the system began determining how many Mysterious Points he would receive.

Mu Yuan explored the Mysterious Land, brought more Tian Yuan City heroes inside, and learned that its shops sold countless treasures while blind boxes offered a chance at rare, personally suited rewards. After Ancient Sword Divine Lord’s disciple Wu Ming drew a destined set of Epic swords, Uta went all-in at the high-tier Mysterious Pool.

• Mu Yuan, Duo Lai, and Isroya entered the Mysterious Land and gained Mysterious Points through its identity, influence, realm, mystery, and grade determinations.
• Mu Yuan surveyed a shop’s vast selection of treasures, weighed direct purchases against blind-box draws, and decided to prepare more heroes to enter.
• Mu Yuan used five Proofs of Hero to help Treant Grandmother, Uta, Seventeen, Red Robe, and Lapis pass the Hero Trial, and confirmed that Lapis could enter the Mysterious Land.
• Uta and the other heroes entered the Mysterious Land in shifts, while Uta went to the high-tier blind-box area.
• Wu Ming drew a treasured sword and then a complete set of compatible Epic swords from the Mysterious Pool.
• Uta threw all his mysterious power into the pool, causing its calm water to boil.

Uta drew several opportunities from the High-Level Mysterious Pool and transformed his Physical Universe, greatly increasing his combat strength. Mu Yuan then brought Lapis to the pool and prepared to use a Small Miracle to help her find clues to her Road to Sainthood.

• Uta spent dozens of Mysterious Points at the High-Level Mysterious Pool and received an Opportunity Light Orb that taught him the Body Fusion Domain.
• Three more Opportunity Light Orbs merged into Uta, helping him develop the abilities Body is Domain, Epic Body, Absolute Will, and Fist Suppresses Concepts.
• Wu Ming challenged Uta to fight again, and Uta accepted.
• Mu Yuan judged that Uta's new abilities had made him stronger than Lu Liu and Isroya, then used Miracle Power to improve Uta's odds of obtaining opportunities.
• Dole, Deathbone, Isroya, and Mu Yuan raised their Divine Souls toward perfection by drawing opportunities, while the other generals searched for gains of their own.
• Mu Yuan brought Lapis to a High-Level Mysterious Pool and told her to draw so he could use a Small Miracle to help her find clues to her Road to Sainthood.

Mu Yuan and Lapis discovered three Roads to Sainthood for Lapis, while Mu Yuan concluded that the Angel King Road suited her best despite its immense demands. A prophecy from the High-Level Mysterious Pool revealed Dragon Sleeping Valley’s preparations for a catastrophic scheme during the Red Mist Calamity Moon, leaving Mu Yuan to formulate a response.

• Lapis spent many Mysterious Points and received three Opportunity Light Orbs, revealing the Angel King, God of Judgment, and God of Guardianship Roads to Sainthood.
• Mu Yuan assessed the requirements of the three roads and judged the Angel King Road to be Lapis’s strongest fit, though recruiting more than two hundred angels would be difficult.
• Mu Yuan failed to anchor the Angel Reincarnation Pool with Miracle Power and then made a draw at the High-Level Mysterious Pool.
• Mu Yuan received a prophecy showing Dragon Sleeping Valley’s terrifying filth network, Blood-colored Giant Dragons, and a great scheme that would unfold during the Red Mist Calamity Moon.
• Mu Yuan recognized that Tian Yuan City would likely bear the brunt of Dragon Sleeping Valley’s plan and began forming a response.

Mu Yuan planned a preemptive strike against Dragon Sleeping Valley by using the Super Dragon Person Front’s request for aid to gather powerful forces. As reinforcements prepared to assemble at the front, Mu Yuan readied his own force and set out, leaving Lu Liu to guard Tian Yuan City.

• Mu Yuan discussed Dragon Sleeping Valley’s plans and resolved to use his remembered maps of Filth Nodes to organize a counterattack, while Sophia found that the Super Dragon Person Front was urgently requesting aid.
• Mu Yuan decided to answer the Dragon Person Alliance’s request without revealing his suspicions that Dragon Sleeping Valley’s threatened assault was a feint, hoping the crisis would draw more reinforcements.
• The Dragon Person Alliance learned that Blazing Fire, two World-Class Experts from the Seven Cities Federation, and Mu Yuan would lead forces to support the front; Wu Ming and Jin Xiang also volunteered to help.
• The Ancient Sword Divine Lord sent Wu Ming and Jin Xiang to the front to temper themselves against monsters.
• Isroya prepared supplies and brought the Ancient Mage Tower for Mu Yuan’s expedition; Lu Liu stayed to guard Tian Yuan City, while the city’s other forces took on their assigned duties.

Mu Yuan brought Tian Yuan City’s elite generals to reinforce the Dragon Person War Zone, where Dragon Sleeping Valley launched an early assault and summoned Gluttony Grand Duke. Mu Yuan led his forces to confront the High Hunting Grand Duke, and Uta shattered Gluttony Hollow with a single punch.

• Mu Yuan selected Duo Lai, Isroya, Uta, Redcoat, Seventeen, Xie Yi, and Ah Sui to accompany him to the front.
• The Divine Glory Empire, the Seven Cities Federation, and other reinforcements arrived at the base city, followed by Mu Yuan and Tian Yuan City’s seven generals.
• Wang Lei offered Mu Yuan command of the Tai Xuan Alliance’s legions, but Mu Yuan declined and kept the existing deployment plan.
• Dragon Sleeping Valley launched a surprise assault before the war zone had completed its preparations, and Gluttony Grand Duke manifested above the battlefield.
• Mu Yuan decided to attack Gluttony Grand Duke before he could establish his footing and flew out with his generals, followed by Wu Ming, Wheel Turning Heavenly King, and Blazing Fire He Le.
• Gluttony Grand Duke used Gluttony Hollow against Mu Yuan, but Uta stepped forward and destroyed the giant mouth with a punch.

Tian Yuan City’s experts fought Gluttony Grand Duke’s projection at the Dragonman War Zone, exposing and destroying it through coordinated attacks. The Red Mist Tide began to recede, and the watching generals realized Tian Yuan City had several World-Class Experts.

• Uta shattered Gluttony Grand Duke’s enormous mouth with one punch, while Mu Yuan recognized that the enemy was a projection and restrained Uta from attacking further.
• Gluttony Grand Duke unleashed spatially destructive attacks, but Isroya protected the group with a sphere of hexagonal crystals as Xie Yi and Seventeen struck his vast shadow.
• Gluttony Grand Duke sacrificed monsters to strengthen his projection and launched a barrage, thinning the shadow enough for Red Dress to find his mind and summon a heart-devil dragon.
• Uta and Dolei cleared away the black smoke while Seventeen marked Gluttony Grand Duke and pierced the core sustaining his projection with a powerful arrow.
• Gluttony Grand Duke’s projection dispersed, the Red Mist Tide began to recede, and the observers realized Tian Yuan City’s fighters included several World-Class Experts.
