• Shen Yang explained that Mortal World Qi was fixed in each world and that a world could support only a limited number of Cultivators at each realm.

After learning about the Void Realm’s wars and immortality, Chen Yi secured Shen Family resources and helped expose a traitor while studying several Dao paths in the Star Domain. With the Holy Son finals still distant, he decided to forge a genuine Immortal Artifact, the Myriad Souls Banner.

• Chen Yi persuaded Shen Yang to provide Shen Family resources and arrange teachers to help him study, arguing that the supplies would aid the fight against the Dragon Person Race.

Chen Yi advanced his artifact-refining studies while the Shen Family organized the Human World to resist the Dragon Person Race. He rallied the Five Domains with his persuasive ability and watched Chen Jing, Li Lingyue, and Li Chengqian pursue their own plans.

• At age forty-one, Chen Yi focused on artifact refining as the Shen Family negotiated with weaker factions and warned the Holy Lands about the coming invasion.
• At age forty-two, Chen Yi reached the peak of Spirit Condensation, while Shen Qingshan and Shen Yang agreed to share control of their body between day and night.

After years of travels and artifact refining, Chen completed the Myriad Souls Banner by fusing its spirit into its body, producing a spectacular heavenly phenomenon in the Star Domain. The chapter ended with a site announcement about testing new titles for the novel.

• Chen traveled throughout the Five Domains, gave mobilization speeches, and gained insights into multiple cultivation paths.
• Shen Yue objected to Chen's request for precious materials, but Chen secured them from the Shen Family and enlisted ten Immortal Grade Artifact Refiners to help prepare them.

• You questioned Huchacha and learned that each Dragon Person Expeditionary Army had at least three Martial Gods, while the Dragon Person World could field multiple armies.
• Huchacha explained that the Dragon Person Race used Demon Seeds and space cannons to locate and enter other Void Realms through small rifts.

Chen Yi learned how the Dragon Person Race's body-sharing talent strengthened its experts and considered exploiting that weakness before drawing the myth entry "Calamity of Ten Thousand Races." He left the Shen Family encouraged to prepare for war, then tested his new ability on a Demon Race member and copied the talent Natural Respiration.

• Chen Yi questioned Huchacha about Dragon Person technology, invasion plans, and the Dragon Person Race's ability to transfer souls into other bodies.

There, he interrupted the Four-Eyed Spirit Monkey’s speech by shooting him, and Azure Dragon sealed off his escape while Hongluan defended him.

• The narrator copied Huchacha’s Soul Wandering Heaven and Earth talent but failed to obtain Black Wind’s, then decided to ask a visitor from the Real Realm about Dragon Scale Horses.

• A thundercloud formed a ghostly face and unleashed black lightning that swept aside the Martial King Realm referees, who warned the contestants that the Holy Land was not responsible.

The Dragon Person Race launched a devastating attack across worlds, forcing Chen and the candidates into the Nine Provinces Cauldron as the assault pursued them. Huchacha explained that the Dragon Person Race likely targeted Chen because its High Priest had foreseen him as a threat, and Dachun continued steering the cauldron through the spatial rifts.

• The referees ordered everyone to flee as spatial rifts spread across the sky, and Huchacha identified the thunderous attack as the Qiankun Space Cannon.

• Long Yang, Baili Su, and the other geniuses argued that the attack was coming for them, but Chen insisted he was its target.
• Huchacha explained that the Dragon Person Race's High Priest likely wanted Chen dead because he threatened the invasion plans, and Dachun kept the cauldron moving through the spatial rifts.

The Nine Provinces Cauldron plunged into Spatial Turbulence, but the Qiankun Mirror stabilized it and saved everyone aboard. Chen organized the survivors to live and farm inside the Cauldron World, then questioned Wu Yue about her origins after she showed an unexpected familiarity with farm work.

• The Nine Provinces Cauldron fell into Spatial Turbulence, and the Qiankun Mirror used Cosmos Bends to My Will to stabilize it.
• Chen warned Long Yang, Baili Su, Wang Mingbai, and the other candidates to keep what they had witnessed secret, and Wang Mingbai gave him his Holy Son Order in gratitude.
