• As Chen Changan tested the new War Tablet, the crowd mistook a sound for someone stepping on something, then heard another crack and turned toward the tablet.

Chen Changan cracked the War Tablet with a combat strength of 10 Realm Power, astonishing the experts and raising the Burning Nether Realm Lord’s hopes for the Third Stage. He learned that the Third Stage would pit experts from three Fourth-grade War Domains against one another and asked about ways to reach the World Lord Realm outside the rules.

After the Burning Nether Realm secured first place in the Realm Lord Battle, Chen Changan learned that its points would let the group enter Source Space first to search for the Source of World Veins. He and the Burning Nether Realm Lord entered with three allied Realm Lords, tasked with locating the Source Beasts while avoiding other competitors.

• The Burning Nether Realm Lord introduced the Empty Bright Realm Lord, the Primordial Realm Lord, and the Mysterious Yuan Realm Lord as allies who would help search for the Source of World Veins.

• The group set out to find the Source Beasts and agreed not to start fights with other entrants unless necessary.

Chen Changan and his companions found a Source Beast while searching the Source Space for the Source of World Veins. Chen Changan subdued it with his powerful will and persuaded it to merge with the source, leaving the Burning Nether Realm Lord stunned and questioning Chen Changan’s origins.

• Chen Changan learned that Source Beasts were transparent, nearly impossible to harm with ordinary attacks, and guarded the Source of World Veins.

Chen Changan and the Burning Nether Realm Lord obtained several Sources of World Veins in Source Space, while Chen Changan discovered that his Jade Bottle could endlessly regenerate whatever it held.

• Chen Changan learned that the Source of World Veins was a living spirit, and the Burning Nether Realm Lord captured one after the Source Beast merged with it.
• The Burning Nether Realm Lord explained that obtaining a Source of World Veins weakened the energy in Source Space and alerted everyone there that one had been claimed.

• Chen Changan offered the Jade Bottle for another Source of World Veins and explained that its contents regenerated after being poured out.
• Chen Changan said the bottle's unknown energy regenerated in three days, while regenerating a Source of World Veins would likely take much longer.

Chen Changan and his companions secured the Source of World Veins, but six World Lord Realm experts confronted them and demanded they hand over their haul. Chen Changan proposed a bet and disappeared to face them, while Mu Yunyao pulled the others back to keep them out of his way.

• Chen Changan placed the Source of World Veins in the Jade Bottle and decided not to seek out their allies.
• Six World Lord Realm experts found Chen Changan, Mu Yunyao, the Burning Nether Realm Lord, and the Great Protector, claiming the group had obtained four Sources of World Veins.

• Chen Changan proposed a bet, then disappeared as Mu Yunyao pulled the Burning Nether Realm Lord and the Great Protector back.
• Mu Yunyao told the others to stay out of Chen Changan's way, and the Burning Nether Realm Lord worried whether Chen Changan could face all six alone.

Chen Changan fought six Minor World Lord Realm powerhouses and discovered that his body remained unharmed even when he deliberately took their attacks. He used his invulnerability and the Source of World Veins to force the six to negotiate, leaving them asking how he wanted to proceed.

• Chen Changan fought the six powerhouses alone while Mu Yunyao, the Burning Nether Realm Lord, and the Great Protector watched from a distance.
• Mu Yunyao judged that Chen Changan could hold off the six but could not yet defeat them, while she wondered whether his body remained invincible.

• The six powerhouses asked Chen Changan how he wanted to negotiate.

Chen Changan learned why powerful figures cultivated World Lords across multiple worlds and considered whether to break through to the World Lord Realm inside the Source Space. He decided to try, though no one knew whether the space allowed such a breakthrough.

• Chen Changan tried to question the six World Lords about how they tracked the Source of World Veins, but they left without answering.
• The Burning Nether Realm Lord explained that a powerful being might cultivate several World Lords to gather Sources of World Veins and develop new worlds.

• Chen Changan asked how long remained before Source Space closed, then said it was time to meet the six people.

After giving five Sources to the Burning Nether Realm Lord, Chen Changan refused the three Mysterious Yuan Realm Lords’ request to reclaim theirs and challenged them to take them back.

• Chen Changan killed one of the men questioning him, then forced the survivors to explain how their jade disk tracked people who had obtained Sources of World Veins.

• The three Mysterious Yuan Realm Lords asked Chen Changan to return the Sources they had lost, but he refused and challenged them to take the Sources from him.

Chen Changan and Yuan Buqi returned from the Realm Lord Battle after Mu Yunyao eliminated three rival Realm Lords and Yuan Buqi pledged to help Chen Changan. At Burning Heaven Pavilion headquarters, Yuan Buqi discovered that three Protectors and many others were missing, while Chen Changan realized Da Huang and the other two had also gone somewhere.

• Chen Changan told Yuan Buqi he would return to the True Realm and declined an offer of Burning Heaven Pavilion experts, preferring to cultivate his own people.

• Chen Changan watched the foreign experts assault the barrier and vowed to wipe out their race.

Chen Changan returned to the True Realm, let Da Huang and the others defeat a foreign race force, and released its captured leader so he could track the leader’s aura later. He then spent three years merging Sources of World Veins, raising the True Realm to an eighth-tier world while continuing his efforts to improve it.

• Chen Changan sent Da Huang, Little Earthworm, and Yi Tuo to fight the invading foreign race experts, and they swiftly defeated them and captured their leader.

• Da Huang and the others set out with a little over seventy years remaining before the next Realm Lord Battle, and Chen Changan considered who should advance next.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao prepared to break through to the Middle Realm Lord Realm despite the True Realm’s apparent limit of one person at that level. He proposed merging their auras and breaking through simultaneously to fool the rules, while questions about the Battle Domain and his missing parents remained unresolved.

• Chen Changan announced that he and Yun Yao would enter seclusion, and that their breakthrough would open a chance for someone else to reach the Minor World Lord Realm.

In Qingyun Realm, he learned that the aliens planned to rule the realm at a Heaven Sealing Assembly by sacrificing Human Race powerhouses, and they might exterminate the entire Human Race.
