Ch. 1702<Apocalypse Sacred Learning>

Chapter Summary

Key Plot Points and Events

  • The protagonist reflects on the unyielding artifact hammer obtained from Wei Lai. Since the hammer refuses to acknowledge anyone—including Jin Wuya and Ye Chen—the protagonist considers reforging it, potentially using Mo Wancheng as material. Ye Chen’s two Creation Dao Materials also make replacing or upgrading the hammer possible.
  • The hammer’s resistance reminds the protagonist of an ancient treasure bracelet hidden in a God Forbidden Zone. The bracelet can forcibly refine supreme treasures, allowing its wielder to bypass an artifact spirit’s refusal to submit.
  • The protagonist assigns Houtu to investigate the bracelet’s whereabouts. Her clues point to Wusi Jiangyou Heaven, a world familiar to the protagonist because of past travels and dealings with Qu Li, its Co-lord of Heaven and Earth.
  • Qu Li is asked to search the surrounding regions, while Wei Lai is dispatched directly to find the bracelet. The protagonist remains ready to project to Wei Lai’s location and assist him if necessary.
  • Later, while the Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror nears completion of its spirit restoration, Yuanshi Immortal Emperor reports progress on research into a red-yellow clod of earth from the Sheng Li region of Fallen God Land.
  • The earth originates from a strange red-and-yellow mountain that absorbs divine Killing Intent and strengthens the region’s ability to contain it. The Heavenly Enlightenment Sage Masters have determined how the material counters divine Killing Intent.
  • The protagonist meets Yuanshi and five elderly members of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sage Masters through projections. They explain the nature and cost of their cultivation method, Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Learning.
  • This secret art dramatically enhances comprehension and reaction speed, allowing its users to analyze and deduce the mysteries of the All Heavens. However, it requires rare Pure Clarity Spirit Water, can only be learned by cultivators at the very beginning of their paths, and severely damages the life soul, shortening the practitioner’s lifespan.
  • Because the protagonist possesses powerful Life Dao Patterns, they obtain six portions of Pure Clarity Spirit Water and begin cultivating six new Heavenly Enlightenment researchers in Qingming Hetong Heaven, intending to protect and support them until they become useful.
  • The chapter concludes with the protagonist finally understanding the principles by which the red-yellow earth resists divine Killing Intent, aided by comprehension superior even to that of the five Sage Masters.

Character Developments

  • The protagonist demonstrates strategic foresight and resourcefulness. Rather than simply replacing the rebellious hammer, they seek the bracelet, which could solve future artifact-refinement problems permanently.
  • The protagonist’s immense confidence and growing power are emphasized. Their Life Dao Patterns make lifespan effectively irrelevant, allowing them to protect researchers from the main cost of Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Learning.
  • Wei Lai receives a major assignment and is trusted to enter a dangerous God Forbidden Zone. His strength makes him a suitable agent for recovering the bracelet.
  • Houtu acts as an efficient investigator and quickly narrows the bracelet’s location to Wusi Jiangyou Heaven.
  • Qu Li cooperates with the protagonist and is tasked with searching his own world, reflecting their established relationship and mutual trust.
  • Yuanshi Immortal Emperor continues to serve as an important ally and intermediary, bringing news of the research breakthrough.
  • The Heavenly Enlightenment Sage Masters are portrayed as devoted but tragic scholars. Their exceptional abilities come at the cost of shortened lives and the loss of a normal cultivation path.
  • The protagonist also begins building a future research force by training six new practitioners in Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Learning.

Significant Themes

  • Power over artifacts and destiny: The bracelet represents freedom from the limitations imposed by artifact spirits and reinforces the protagonist’s goal of mastering supreme treasures by force if necessary.
  • The cost of knowledge: Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Learning grants extraordinary comprehension but consumes the user’s lifespan, showing that great understanding often demands severe sacrifice.
  • Life and mortality: The Sage Masters’ shortened lives contrast sharply with the protagonist’s ability to manipulate and preserve life through Life Dao Patterns.
  • Strategic preparation: The protagonist consistently plans for future needs, seeking both the bracelet and a permanent research organization rather than solving only immediate problems.
  • The value of comprehension: The chapter highlights understanding as a form of power. The protagonist’s superior comprehension allows them to grasp complex principles almost immediately, even compared with elite researchers.
  • Cooperation and protection: The protagonist’s relationships with allies and researchers are based on delegation, trust, and the promise of protection, enabling others to pursue dangerous or costly paths.

Character Interactions

  • The protagonist considers the hammer’s relationship with Jin Wuya and Ye Chen, judging the artifact’s refusal to submit and weighing destruction against refinement.
  • The protagonist entrusts Houtu with tracing the bracelet and asks Qu Li to conduct a preliminary search in Wusi Jiangyou Heaven.
  • Wei Lai accepts the dangerous mission of entering the God Forbidden Zone, with the protagonist prepared to provide assistance through projection.
  • The protagonist and Yuanshi Immortal Emperor meet through positional cornerstones, joined by the five Heavenly Enlightenment Sage Masters.
  • The five Sage Masters explain their secret art, its requirements, and its devastating consequences. The protagonist listens, compares the method with their own abilities, and establishes a plan to train six protected successors.
  • The chapter ends with the protagonist and the Sage Masters reaching a deeper understanding of the red-yellow earth’s power against divine Killing Intent.

Ch. 1703Divine Avoidance Qi and Night Resentment

Chapter Summary: Divine Avoidance Qi and Night Resentment

Key Plot Points and Events

  • The five Heavenly Revelation Sage Masters explain that Divine Avoidance Qi can reduce the pressure of Fallen God Land’s divine Killing Intent by 70–80%, making future expeditions considerably safer.
  • Because the protagonist has already understood Divine Avoidance Qi, he may have as many as three chances to enter Fallen God Land within ten million years, potentially entering in as little as fifty thousand years if necessary.
  • The Sage Masters are deeply astonished by how quickly he comprehended the technique. Even Yuanshi Immortal Emperor, one of the Three Pure Heavens’ strongest comprehenders, might need millions of years to understand it.
  • The Sage Masters hope the protagonist will soon test their theories in Fallen God Land, but he refuses to rush back. His previous encounter with Night Resentment, a mysterious and possibly superior existence, has made him cautious.
  • The protagonist now suspects that Night Resentment may have been responsible for refining the Dao Source World Tree. He believes Night Resentment’s strength surpasses the Three Flower Imperial Realm and may be amplified by Fallen God Land’s environment.
  • He decides not to return until he reaches the Earth Flower Imperial Realm and restores the Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror.
  • After the Sage Masters’ projections disappear, he informs Yuanshi about Night Resentment. Yuanshi reacts with visible despair, overwhelmed by the growing number of terrifying hidden powers threatening the Dao Sect.
  • The protagonist tries to reassure Yuanshi by emphasizing Night Resentment’s apparent friendliness, though neither of them is certain whether Night Resentment is truly an ally.
  • After many years, the protagonist successfully restores the Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror. He prevents its powerful white radiance from breaking through Qingming Hetong Heaven’s World Barrier, keeping the transformation contained.
  • Despite the restoration’s spectacular phenomenon, the mirror proves disappointing. Ye Ping’an determines that it cannot develop an artifact spirit, its foundation was severely damaged by the Primordial Qi of Time Sequence, and it cannot match other True Supreme Treasures.
  • Ye Ping’an recommends dissolving the mirror so its two eight-ring Creation Dao Materials can be extracted. His intense excitement while examining the mirror makes the protagonist suspect that he may have another motive.

Character Developments

  • The protagonist demonstrates extraordinary comprehension, mastering Divine Avoidance Qi almost instantly and becoming the Sage Masters’ ideal test subject. However, his experience with Night Resentment makes him more prudent and unwilling to gamble recklessly.
  • Yuanshi Immortal Emperor becomes increasingly psychologically strained. The revelation of multiple supreme threats—Bao Qiong, Zuoju, and Night Resentment—forces him to confront how vulnerable the once-dominant Dao Sect has become.
  • Night Resentment remains mysterious. His previous nonaggression toward the protagonist suggests possible friendliness, but his overwhelming strength and connection to Fallen God Land make him a major unresolved threat.
  • Ye Ping’an displays unusual enthusiasm toward the restored Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror. His reaction causes the protagonist to question his objectivity and suspect concealed intentions.

Significant Themes

  • Caution versus opportunity: Although Divine Avoidance Qi creates a chance to explore Fallen God Land safely, the protagonist prioritizes survival and preparation over immediate gains.
  • The burden of hidden power: The Dao Sect’s former dominance is undermined by the existence of beings such as Bao Qiong, Zuoju, and Night Resentment.
  • Uncertainty and mistrust: Night Resentment’s apparent friendliness cannot be fully trusted, and Ye Ping’an’s excitement suggests that even seemingly straightforward matters may conceal ulterior motives.
  • Limits of restoration: Repairing the Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror restores its function but cannot undo the deep damage to its foundation, emphasizing that some losses are irreversible.
  • Comprehension as power: Understanding Divine Avoidance Qi gives the protagonist a strategic advantage and distinguishes him even among the strongest experts.

Character Interactions

  • The Heavenly Revelation Sage Masters praise and rely on the protagonist’s exceptional comprehension, hoping he will validate their Divine Avoidance Qi research.
  • The protagonist discusses Night Resentment with Yuanshi, forcing the Immortal Emperor to confront another potentially catastrophic threat. He attempts to comfort Yuanshi by stressing Night Resentment’s possible friendliness.
  • Ye Ping’an examines the restored Greenish-gray Bronze Mirror and gives a technical assessment of its limitations. His recommendation to dissolve it, combined with his conspicuous excitement, makes the protagonist wary of his true intentions.
