• The officials attacked together, but the squad’s supernatural-tech weapons pierced them with energy beams that surpassed Human King Realm power.

Li unified the divided empire under Qingyang rule and built a system of strict law enforcement, then left to pursue greater strength so the order would survive without relying on Li alone. Six hundred and fifty million years later, the Xia Tribe had fallen behind the supernatural beings of the empire, and their conflict had become irreconcilable.

• Wang Pan continued comprehending Origins, reaching the Human Emperor Realm on the path of humanity and controlling 2,999 Origin Daos on the path of the Heavenly Dao.
• Wang Pan began comprehending the Creation Origin as all 2,999 other Origins lent him their power.

Wang Pan awakened after billions of years, saved the surviving life of the Ancient God Realm, and eventually reunited with Murong Qiushui through a cycle of fate. After reclaiming his Dao Fruit and defeating the Three-Headed Giant Beast, he met the mighty North Wind, who challenged him to transcend the world's limits.

• Wang Pan forged his Dao Fruit, reached the Human Emperor Realm, and slumbered while humanity flourished and later fractured into rival factions.
