Zhenyuanzi watched Nüwa sever her three corpses and, with Taiyi’s help, begin merging them through the power of creation. Nüwa approached the formation of a Golden Body of Creation, while Zhenyuanzi wondered whether Taiyi might grant him the same fortune.

• Heavenly Emperor Houtu invited Zhenyuanzi to Great Luo Heaven and brought him to Pangu Shrine to witness Nüwa’s Three Corpses Severance.
• Nüwa severed her Corpse of Self, joining it with her Good Corpse and Evil Corpse, but struggled to merge the three.
• Taiyi infused Nüwa with Creation Qi, allowing her to place the three corpse gods in three Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures and begin merging them.
• Nüwa gained insight into the Great Dao of Creation as the treasures and corpses began to merge, and she neared condensing a Golden Body of Creation.
• Zhenyuanzi recognized Taiyi’s role in Nüwa’s progress and wondered whether he might receive similar help attaining the Dao.

Nüwa attempted to merge her Three Corpses using three treasures of the same origin, but a final opportunity was still missing, so Taiyi advised her to pursue the Creation Dao. Zhen Yuanzi learned that Taiyi’s Cosmos Cauldron could refine such treasures and asked Taiyi to teach him how to do the same.

• Zhen Yuanzi asked Taiyi whether the Three Corpses could merge only when housed in three Innate Spiritual Treasures of the same origin, and Taiyi confirmed it.
• Nüwa merged the Nüwa Sword, Nüwa Lyre, and Nüwa Flute into her primordial spirit, but a repulsive force prevented her Three Corpses from fully merging.

• Taiyi advised Nüwa to pursue the Creation Dao and remain in Great Luo Heaven to comprehend the Creation Laws.
• Taiyi explained how the Cosmos Cauldron had helped create Nüwa’s treasures, and Fuxi showed Zhen Yuanzi his own three treasures of the same origin.
• Zhen Yuanzi realized he could use such treasures to condense an Earth Golden Body and asked Taiyi to teach him.

Zhen Yuanzi pledged himself to Taiyi and agreed to cooperate with the Heavenly Court, while Taiyi promised to forge three Earth Book lineage treasures for his Three Corpses.

• Fuxi offered Zhen Yuanzi a bottle of Three Lights Divine Water to restore his weakened cultivation.

Taiyi returned from the chaos with replicas of the Heavenly Book and Human Book for Zhen Yuanzi, explaining their future importance. The Heavenly Court’s power had grown overwhelming, and Zhen Yuanzi prepared to study the Human Book for the coming tribulations.

• Fuxi told Zhen Yuanzi that Taiyi had prepared Three Lights Divine Water for him, and Zhen Yuanzi accepted it to restore his cultivation.
• Taiyi took Zhen Yuanzi’s Earth Book into the chaos to forge spiritual treasures of the same origin.
• Over three thousand years, the Heavenly Court’s forces grew stronger, while the Spirit Race and Dragon Clan also rose; the Heavenly Court suppressed its rivals across the Primordial World.

• Taiyi returned with the Cosmos Cauldron and gave Zhen Yuanzi three Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures as replicas of the Heavenly Book and Human Book.
• Taiyi told Zhen Yuanzi that the books would aid the Investiture of the Gods and the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and Zhen Yuanzi agreed to familiarize himself with the Human Book.

Taiyi guided Zhen Yuanzi to bind his three corpses to the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, bringing him to peak Quasi-Saint cultivation. Taiyi then concluded that Fuxi needed to become the Human Emperor and gather Human Dao destiny to attain sainthood.

• Taiyi told Zhen Yuanzi to control the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity and prepare to guard the Primordial Wilderness.
• Zhen Yuanzi severed his three corpses and merged them with the Three Books using Heavenly Dao Merit and the Spirit Race's destiny.
• Zhen Yuanzi reached peak Quasi-Saint cultivation, while other Primordial powerhouses envied the merit and destiny he had gained.
• Fuxi congratulated Zhen Yuanzi and said he still lacked an opportunity to attain sainthood.
• Taiyi judged that Fuxi needed to become the Human Emperor and gather Human Dao destiny to achieve sainthood.

Taiyi arranged Fuxi’s path to becoming a Human Emperor and Sage, then discussed Houtu’s plan to establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation and revive the Earth Dao. He offered Houtu a new strand of Primordial Violet Qi, whose unfamiliar aura surprised her.

• Taiyi told Fuxi he could become Human Emperor without reincarnating and identified Dijun’s Hetu Luoshu as the treasure Fuxi needed to prove the Dao.
• Taiyi emerged from seclusion and found that the Twelve Ancestral Witches had grown stronger, while Houtu had reached the half-step Sage realm.
• Houtu told Taiyi that she had a clear plan to establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation after Nüwa established the Human Dao.
• Taiyi promised Houtu another source of Reincarnation Laws so she would not have to become reincarnation itself and remain trapped in the Six Paths.
• Taiyi revealed a strand of Primordial Violet Qi, and Houtu sensed that its aura differed from Zhen Yuanzi’s.

The chapter ended as the battered Kunpeng Ancestor knelt before Taiyi in the Lingxiao Palace, and Taiyi asked why he had come.

• Taiyi told Houtu to comprehend the Six Paths of Reincarnation Laws and later revive the Earth Dao, bringing the Three Powers of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity into balance.
• Houtu accepted Taiyi's plan, confident she could master reincarnation without sacrificing her Ancestral Witch True Body.

• Demon Sage Bai Ze reported that the badly wounded Kunpeng Ancestor had requested an audience with Taiyi.
• Taiyi received Kunpeng in the Lingxiao Palace, where Kunpeng knelt before him, and asked what he wanted.

Kunpeng sought protection from Taiyi after the Purple Palace Immortal Court attacked him in collusion with the Outer Realm Demon Clan. Taiyi granted him refuge and decided to settle matters with the Immortal Court so Nüwa could begin proving the Dao and becoming a Saint.

• Kunpeng arrived at Lingxiao Palace, felt Taiyi’s overwhelming aura, and begged him for the Heavenly Court’s protection.
• Kunpeng was shocked to learn that Fuxi, Nüwa, Houtu, and the others had reached peak Quasi-Saint cultivation with Taiyi’s support.
• Zhen Yuanzi confronted Kunpeng over his role in pursuing Hongyun, but Taiyi stopped the dispute and asked Kunpeng to explain what had happened.
• Kunpeng recounted how the Purple Palace Immortal Court attacked him after his release from serving his sentence, forcing him to escape with Heaven and Earth Swift Wind Escape.
• Taiyi granted Kunpeng protection and concluded that the Immortal Court was targeting the Demon Clan to weaken the Witch and Demon Heavenly Court.
• Taiyi declared that the Heavenly Court would settle matters with the Purple Palace Immortal Court, after which Nüwa could begin proving the Dao and becoming a Saint.

Kunpeng Ancestor rejected the Purple Palace Immortal Court’s claim over him and declared himself a member of the Heavenly Court, which drove the Immortal Court’s delegation away. Taiyi overheard the Demon Clan’s plans to recruit allies and judged that their invasion would fail, though he wondered whether a greater force beyond chaos was influencing events.

• The Purple Palace Immortal Court presented an Immortal Register listing Kunpeng Ancestor and demanded that he return for allegedly embezzling from his post.
• Kunpeng Ancestor denied joining the Immortal Court and claimed protection as a member of the Heavenly Court.
• At Houtu’s signal, Kua Fu threatened the Immortal Court delegation, and a distant Demon Clan voice transmission ordered its leader to retreat.
• Three Demon Gods planned to recruit Zhunti, Jieyin, the Kunlun Three Pure Ones, and other forces before the Demon Clan’s invasion.
• Taiyi secretly overheard the Demon Gods, dismissed their chances against the Primordial Continent, and wondered whether forces beyond chaos were shaping events.

Kunpeng revealed that Duke of the East had entered the chaos and returned wounded with a black object, prompting Taiyi to suspect that another powerful faction had found a fortuitous opportunity in the Primordial World. Taiyi reflected on his separation from his main body and resolved to rely on his own strength and the God-Tier Sign-In System, then asked when the next sign-in location would refresh.

• Kunpeng admitted that the Purple Palace Immortal Court had pursued him because he had discovered a secret about Duke of the East.
• Kunpeng told Taiyi that he had followed Duke of the East to the chaos, waited outside, and later saw him return wounded with a black object.
• Taiyi concluded that the object likely belonged to a faction other than Mountain Guest and wondered what secret drew powerful beings to the Primordial World.
• Taiyi considered his separation from his main body and trusted that he could reach the Other Shore with the God-Tier Sign-In System.
• Taiyi asked the system when the next sign-in location would refresh.

Zhen Yuanzi left the Heavenly Court to manage the Earth Immortal Lineage after Taiyi gave him the Hongmeng Universe Ruler. He planned to establish the lineage’s base at Mount Sumeru, the Western Duo’s daoist grounds.

• Taiyi dismissed the group’s concerns about Duke of the East and said the Heavenly Court should first strengthen itself and learn the intentions of the Outer Realm Demon Clan and the Extraterritorial Chaos visitors.

• Zhen Yuanzi met them at Mount Sumeru and ordered his gathered Mountain God Earth Deities and other followers to attack.

Zhen Yuanzi overwhelmed Zhunti and Jieyin with his peak Quasi-Saint power and an arsenal of treasures, then chased them after they tried to escape. The Western duo remained on the run, threatening to fight back as Zhen Yuanzi refused to let them go.

• Zhunti and Jieyin attacked the Mountain God Earth Deities, but Zhen Yuanzi struck down their weapons with the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.
• Zhunti and Jieyin realized Zhen Yuanzi had reached the peak Quasi-Saint realm and was equipped with treasures formed from the Three Books.
• Zhen Yuanzi relentlessly beat Zhunti and Jieyin as the surrounding deities watched, forcing the pair to destroy an Acquired Spiritual Treasure and flee through the encirclement.
• Zhunti and Jieyin threatened Zhen Yuanzi while running, but he dismissed their warnings and continued pursuing them.

Zhen Yuanzi attacked Zhunti and Jieyin to avenge Hongyun, but realized he could not kill the two brothers with his current strength. He shifted his aim to Jieyin’s Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus, hoping to make it part of a plan involving the return of three lotuses to their origin.

• Zhen Yuanzi rejected Zhunti and Jieyin’s attempts to reconcile and demanded one of them die to repay Hongyun’s life.
• Zhunti and Jieyin refused to choose between each other and fought Zhen Yuanzi together.
• Primordial Powerhouses watched and cheered as Zhen Yuanzi battered the Western Duo, who could not overcome his Hongmeng Universe Ruler.
• Zhen Yuanzi concluded that he could beat the brothers but could not kill them, then focused his attacks on Jieyin’s Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus.

Zhen Yuanzi defeated Jieyin, seized the Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus, and declared that he would continue avenging Red Cloud Hermit. Jieyin and Zhunti were left injured and powerless as Zhen Yuanzi departed toward Mount Sumeru.

• Jieyin summoned the Twelfth-Grade Merit Golden Lotus to defend himself, and Zhen Yuanzi used the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler to split Jieyin’s golden body in two.
• Zhunti rushed to avenge Jieyin, but Zhen Yuanzi seized the Merit Golden Lotus and stored it in his Universe in the Sleeve.
• Zhen Yuanzi lamented that he had avenged Red Cloud Hermit and vowed to destroy the two culprits before leaving with the Earth Immortal Lineage.
• Jieyin and Zhunti pleaded for the sect treasure, but Zhen Yuanzi refused and headed toward Mount Sumeru.
• Zhunti proposed asking Eastern King Duke for justice, but Jieyin said the Immortal Court could barely protect itself, and the brothers left in disgrace.

Taiyi watched Zhen Yuanzi establish the Earth Vein Ancestral Court and reclaim most of the Primordial Continent’s earth veins, while Eastern King Duke secretly prepared a Chaos seed as the Purple Mansion Immortal Court’s last hope. The Earth Immortal Lineage swallowed Zhunti and Jieyin’s Western orthodoxy and secured the Western Continent.

• Zhen Yuanzi seized Jieyin’s Twelfth Grade Golden Lotus of Merit, established the Earth Immortal Ancestral Court on Mount Sumeru, and appointed Earth Immortal officials to claim authority over the Primordial Continent’s lands and waterways.
• Alarmed powerhouses rushed to defend their domains, but Zhen Yuanzi’s court reclaimed seven or eight out of every ten earth veins, leaving only sensitive regions untouched for now.
• Taiyi explained that Zhen Yuanzi was building merit and fortune for the Earth Immortal Lineage while avoiding conflicts with major powers until Nüwa and Houtu attained sainthood.
• Eastern King Duke held a mysterious Chaos seed and vowed that the Purple Mansion Immortal Court would have its chance to win at the final moment.
• The Earth Immortal Lineage absorbed Zhunti and Jieyin’s Western orthodoxy, forcing figures such as Medicine Buddha and Maitreya Buddha to flee as the Western Continent became its secure base.

Zhenyuanzi’s Earth Vein Ancestral Court restored the Western Continent and gained merit, while Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jieyin angrily awaited help from the Immortal Court. Zhenyuanzi sent his Evil Corpse toward the Heavenly Court with the Twelfth Grade Golden Lotus of Merit, but a mysterious assailant killed it before it arrived.

• Zhenyuanzi’s Earth Immortal Lineage restored the Western Continent’s spiritual veins and drew merit and destiny to the Ancestral Court and Heavenly Court.
• Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jieyin raged over Zhenyuanzi taking the fruits of their labor and awaited instructions from the Immortal Court.

• Zhenyuanzi’s Evil Corpse recognized the attacker as the Source of All Evil and saw its face, but the assailant cleaved it in two before it could reveal what it had learned.

Zhenyuanzi staged his Evil Corpse’s death to lure out the mysterious black figure while he kept the Purple Palace Immortal Court occupied with help from Zhurong. Taiyi failed to identify the fugitive, then joined Zhurong and trapped the Immortal Court’s leading expert, leaving Taiyi convinced the black figure was not from the Primordial Wilderness.

• Zhenyuanzi sensed his Evil Corpse’s death and pretended to rush to the scene, but Jieyin and Zhunti blocked his way over the Merit Golden Lotus.
• Zhenyuanzi fought Jieyin and Zhunti until the Purple Palace Immortal Court arrived to arrest him, prompting Zhurong and the Heavenly Court Fire Peacekeeping Corps to intervene.
• Taiyi caught the black figure attempting to take the Merit Golden Lotus and the Earth Book, but the figure broke free and vanished into the Extraterritorial Chaos.
• Zhurong overwhelmed the Immortal Court’s leading expert, who tried to flee as Taiyi arrived.
• Taiyi used the Chaos Bell to freeze the Immortal Court expert and concluded that the black figure’s power showed he was not from the Primordial Wilderness.

Taiyi confronted Hongjun over Jieyin and Zhunti’s crimes, insisting that the Heavenly Court had the right to punish them. Hongjun intervened but ultimately made Jieyin surrender the Primordial Bitter Bamboo, while Taiyi left with his prize and hinted the dispute was not over.

• Zhurong arrested the Immortal Court members, while Taiyi threatened to imprison Jieyin and Zhunti in a Demon Lock Tower or Demon Suppression Tower.

• Taiyi argued that Jieyin and Zhunti had broken the Heavenly Edict and attacked an ally of the Heavenly Court, so they deserved punishment.
• Hongjun declined to release the Western Duo outright, and Taiyi demanded that they hand over the Seven Treasure Wonderful Brush Tree and the Primordial Bitter Bamboo.
• Hongjun ordered Jieyin to surrender the Primordial Bitter Bamboo, and Taiyi took it before fading into the void.
