He also revealed that his lifespan was running out, leaving Shi Lan wondering how he would die, before Wang Zhen returned with the Crimson Crow War Halberd months later.

Meanwhile, Shi Lan returned to the Lingyang Realm and began a prize draw with the reputation points she had gained at the Heavenly Court.

• Di Luosha told Fuguang that her damaged Dao Fruit made opening a Dao Flower impossible and that forcing her way into the Divine Nether Realm would cause it to collapse.
• Fuguang gave Di Luosha the Heavenly Demon Mirror, saying Beichen had left her an opportunity inside it, and warned that the Devil Master of Extreme Radiance's repeated interest in her seemed suspicious.

Ying Qianqiu and Qing Lan arrived in the past before the decisive battle that would destroy the Immortal Dao, and the Immortal Emperor tasked Ying with seeking aid from the Heavenly Court.

In the shattered Heavenly Court, Ying Qianqiu received scriptures and a command token from the Jade Emperor as the battle intensified and former Heavenly Court gods turned against its forces.

• Qing Lan repaired the jade bi and traveled back to Langya Cave Heaven, where she gave it to the young Linglong with three protective talismans.

Ye guarded the secluded valley against visitors while Di Beichen and Fuguang tried to deliver a calling card to Yao. Afterward, Di Beichen revealed his interest in winning over Yao and Yang, and Fuguang suspected he coveted Yao’s God Race blood.

• Ye told Di Beichen and Fuguang that only Yao could enter the valley without permission.
• Fuguang insulted Ye, but Di Beichen stopped him, handed over a calling card, and left.
• Di Beichen explained that Ye’s rapid cultivation made it wise to treat him with respect, especially out of regard for Yang.
• Fuguang questioned Di Beichen’s pursuit of Yao, and Di Beichen said his feelings had changed while keeping his reasons secret.
• Di Beichen asked how he could make Yang warm up to him, and Fuguang guessed he wanted Yao’s God Race blood.

Di Beichen considered other ways to obtain divine blood, while Shi Lan sought the Divine King’s guidance on advancing beyond the tenth rank without a Dao Flower. The Divine King revealed that she would have to break through the barriers of time and space with her body, though doing so seemed impossible without already reaching the Other Shore.

• Fuguang warned Di Beichen that mixed-blood clans could not reincarnate, but urged caution because their tribes had powerful connections.
• Shi Lan cultivated with the True Dragon Blood-Refining Pill, reaching the middle stage of the Void Realm while remaining stuck on how to advance her Martial Scripture beyond the tenth rank.

• Shi Lan explained her cultivation problem to the Divine King, who said she could only continue without a Dao Fruit by forcing her way through the barriers of time and space.
• The Divine King used Shi Lan’s Sacred Demon Eye to show her the gate to the tenth rank and explained that breaking through with her physical body alone would require the power of the Other Shore.

The God King explained how source energy and Origin Heaven could bring about the destruction of the great universe, then asked Shi Lan whether Origin Heaven should rule again.

• Shi Lan described the later great universe as a malformed age where the strong used source energy to control the lives of countless beings, and she questioned the tragedies it caused.

• The God King explained that Origin Heaven remained alive as long as the source crystal existed and could awaken if its fragments were reunited.
• Shi Lan said she would rather Origin Heaven remain asleep than destroy the world, then vowed to strike down Heaven if it tried to reopen Heaven and Earth.

After learning that the mixed-bloods were attacking human tribes, Shi Lan left the valley and found Cha Lie destroying her shrine in northern Lingyang. A tenth-tier mixed-blood confronted her over whether she was acting for the divine race, and Shi Lan prepared to fight.

• The God King accepted that Shi Lan had chosen to pursue Slay Heaven and offered to help her when she visited.
• Shi Lan returned to the valley, where Yao was teasing Ye during his training, and Yao invited Shi Lan somewhere.
• Shi Lan sensed that her statues and longevity tablets had been destroyed and heard from Kuang Shaoqing that mixed-bloods were slaughtering human tribes, so she decided to investigate alone.
• In northern Lingyang, Shi Lan found Cha Lie crushing her statue at the ruined shrine of Lord Chaori.
• A silver-haired tenth-tier mixed-blood questioned whether Shi Lan would kill Cha Lie on behalf of the divine race, and Shi Lan drew the Crimson Crow War Halberd and challenged him.

Shi Lan overwhelmed a Tenth-Order expert but discovered that his command of space and time let him revive without limit. When she threatened Zhalie with an arrow, Yin and a white-haired boy intervened, and the boy defended his actions to Yin.

• Shi Lan attacked the middle-aged man with her Crimson Crow War Halberd, severed his arms, and fought him with the power of the Hao Immortal Armor.
• Shi Lan pierced the middle-aged man's heart, broke his wrist, and tore off his head, but he revived each time with his strength intact.
• Shi Lan realized the middle-aged man could draw on the river of space and time to restore his incarnations, making him difficult to kill and a threat in a war of attrition.
• Shi Lan stomped the middle-aged man into the ground and aimed a golden greatbow at the wounded Zhalie.
• A white-haired boy caught Shi Lan's arrow and broke it as Yin arrived; the boy told Yin that Shi Lan had acted first and that his intervention was reasonable.

Shi Lan learned that the impure-blooded branch had declared independence as the demigod race and plunged all of Lingyang into war. After Kuang Shaoqing returned with survivors, Shi Lan realized Yao and Ye were missing.

• Jun Xuan attacked Shi Lan, but Yin intervened and challenged him over the impure-blooded branch's slaughter.
• Jun Xuan withdrew with Sha Lie and another man, while Yin left to report to the Divine King.

• Kuang Shaoqing arrived with more than a dozen wounded Emperor Realm survivors and reported catastrophic losses across the tribes.
• Kuang Shaoqing told Shi Lan that the impure-blooded branch had declared independence as the demigod race under Great Sage Kunyu, who had entered the highest realm.
• Shi Lan searched the valley with her divine sense and found that Yao and Ye were gone.

Yao and Ye discovered that Sayun had destroyed Ye’s tribe, and Yao killed him before Shi Lan arrived. As they prepared to return to the valley, Ye asked Shi Lan what she thought of the human race.

• Shi Lan learned Yao and Ye had left the valley and went out disguised as a demigod to find them.
• Yao and Ye found the ruins of Ye’s tribe, where Ye buried the few bones he could recover.
• Sayun admitted he had destroyed the tribe, and Yao killed him with a battle spear.
• Yao told Ye he could take revenge, but Ye said Sayun was not the root of his tribe’s destruction.
• Shi Lan arrived, and Ye asked her what she thought of the human race.

After Ye questioned whether humans could ever surpass Gods and Devils, Shi Lan urged him to choose his own path. As war between the Divine Race and the mixed-bloods loomed, Shi Lan sheltered a growing human population, then learned that every ancient beast in the Lingyang Realm had vanished.

• Ye asked Shi Lan whether humans could surpass Gods and Devils, and she told him his race did not determine how far he could go.
• The Divine King told the four lineage heads that Kun Yu had entered the Sovereign realm, but ordered them to handle the likely war with the mixed-bloods while she went into seclusion.
• The four lineage heads set out to seek allies among the Demon Race, devils, and sea races, while overlooking humanity as no threat.
• Shi Lan opened more than ten pocket heavens to house the humans gathering under Kuang Shaoqing, and Yao returned to the Divine Race to reassure its people.
• Shi Lan learned that every ancient beast in the Lingyang Realm had vanished, leaving her worried that humans, devils, and demons would be forced to fill the food-chain gap.

Shi Lan protected Lingyang’s humans while studying spacetime laws, but Yao informed her that the Divine Race expected her to provide Kuang Shaoqing and other experts as a reserve force for the coming war. Meanwhile, the Demigod Race prepared to fight the Divine Race within three months and discussed killing Shi Lan when an opportunity arose.

• Shi Lan sent Kuang Shaoqing to organize human experts and shelter people across the Four Regions, then entered seclusion to study the laws of spacetime with the Cosmic Mirror.
• Shi Lan discovered that the Cosmic Mirror’s time reversal affected her body but not her cultivation, and concluded that her body could not yet escape time’s erosion.
• Yao met Shi Lan with Divine Race representatives and warned that the clan distrusted her protection of so many humans; she said the Divine King was secluded and the First Elder was handling affairs.
• Yao told Shi Lan that the Divine Race had decided to deploy the Demon and Monster Races and required Kuang Shaoqing and some of Shi Lan’s forces as reserves; Shi Lan agreed.
• Xuanjun told two Demigod leaders that Sovereign Kunyu had ordered war against the Divine Race within three months and claimed the Heavenly Dao of Lingyang would support them.
• The Demigod leaders discussed their shortage of human blood reserves and planned to have Shi Lan killed, with the woman advising that they attack together to prevent her escape or reincarnation.

The Divine King killed Kunyu and erased him from history, but Shi Lan alone still remembered him. He explained that he sought a death that would erase every trace of his existence, yet the Lingyang Heavenly Dao imprint bound him to the Origin Heaven, leaving him unable to escape its record.

• A blood-red bolt destroyed the jade in Jun Xuan’s hand, and the altered memories of Jun Xuan, Gu Qi, and Ye Qing left them unaware that Kunyu had been erased.
• Jun Xuan received a message from the Heavenly Dao and resolved to prepare for war, while Ye Qing urged Gu Qi to join a surprise attack on Yang and the human elite.
• Shi Lan sent a million human fighters with Yao, then learned that Yao had no memory of Kunyu and that Yao and Xia had been sealed away for centuries.
• Shi Lan summoned the Divine King, who confirmed that he had killed Kunyu and said he could not explain why she alone still remembered him.
• The Divine King explained that true death meant severing a being’s connection to the Origin Heaven, but the Lingyang Heavenly Dao imprint inside him prevented him from disappearing completely.

Shi Lan entered the River of Space-Time to comprehend its laws, but its power nearly erased her memories and lifespan. After returning and devising a way to let the river flow through her Dragon Gate, she altered the future and retained a portion of the river's power.

• Shi Lan asked the Divine King to help her enter the River of Space-Time again, and he warned that she might lose herself there.
• The Divine King sent Shi Lan into the river, where its force shattered her consciousness, drained her lifespan, and filled her mind with chaotic memories.
• The Divine King pulled Shi Lan out and replenished her lifespan, while the system helped her recover her memories; she cut away the fragments she had brought back.
• Shi Lan studied the river and pierced her waist and abdomen to open the Dragon Gate, hoping to let its current pass through her body.
• Shi Lan's method briefly let her sense the river's bottom and caused the river to split into tributaries, prompting the Divine King to pull her out again.
• The Divine King saw that Shi Lan's Dragon Gate held a clear spring containing the laws of space-time.

After spending decades in the river of spacetime, Shi Lan recovered her memories and gained annihilation force, but saw visions of the God King's death and a future catastrophe. She returned to the valley, where four figures appeared and she could no longer recognize them.

• Shi Lan awakened after more than seventy years and discovered that the river of spacetime flowed through her body, nourishing her and revealing fragments of the past and future.
• Shi Lan manifested annihilation force, and the God King explained that it could kill a Rank-Ten Supreme by severing their connection to the Origin Heaven.
• Shi Lan told the God King she had seen a blood-red sword tear open the Lingyang Grand Realm and foresaw his death, followed by the deaths of many living beings.
• Shi Lan said she had seen the eternal tribulation across the ages and no longer needed to remain in the river of spacetime.
• The God King dismissed Shi Lan, who returned to the valley and sensed danger as four figures appeared above it; she blurted that she knew them, then could not recognize them.

Four Other Shore demigods ambushed Shi Lan’s settlement and appeared to kill her, prompting Yao to order a search and prepare for war. Shi Lan returned through the River of Spacetime, stopped Yao from involving the gods, and set out to retaliate against the demigods herself; she ended the chapter aiming her golden bow at a tribe.

• Four Other Shore demigods led by Jun Xuan attacked Shi Lan’s settlement, and the valley was reduced to a lifeless plain.
• Yao arrived, learned the demigods had attacked and Shi Lan’s fate was unknown, then ordered a search and mobilized the gods against the mixed-blood line.
• Shi Lan emerged from the River of Spacetime and warned Yao not to involve the gods in the conflict.
• Shi Lan asked Yao for the demigod tribes’ locations and Chalie’s whereabouts, declaring that she would kill him and make the demigods pay.
• Shi Lan traveled west and realized she could not remember the four attackers because she had erased them from her future spacetime.
• Shi Lan drew her golden bow and aimed at a tribe below.

Shi Lan destroyed demigod tribes to prevent a larger divine war, but using annihilation began erasing her memories. After rescuing three Devil Race members from demigod pursuers, she recognized Luo Ning and stopped to face her.

• Sha Lie tried to shield the youths in his palace, but Shi Lan destroyed his tribe and killed more than a million demigods with the Sunshatter Bow.
• Shi Lan traveled across the Lingyang Realm and erased thirteen demigod tribes in one night, prompting the demigod experts to hunt her.
• A silver-haired Divine Nether Realm expert confronted Shi Lan, who severed his connection to the River of Spacetime and killed him with the Moonbreaker Arrow.
• Shi Lan wondered who the dead expert had been as annihilation left gaps in her memories, then continued onward while demigod forces closed in.
• Shi Lan killed a group of demigods pursuing three Devil Race members and recognized the purple-haired woman as Luo Ning.

Shi Lan reunited with Di Beichen and met Luo Ning before leaving with a snow demon orchid bracelet. News spread that Yang had entered the domain of space-time and killed a demigod peak expert, prompting the demigod Great Sages to plan another attempt to erase her from history.

• Luo Ning thanked Shi Lan for saving her and invited her to visit her clan, but Shi Lan declined before accepting Luo Ning’s flower bracelet.
• Di Beichen arrived to check on Luo Ning, and Shi Lan warned him through a mental transmission not to pursue Yao.
• Fuguang realized that Yang had reached the tenth rank, while Di Beichen remained in the Origin Realm.
• Reports spread that Yang had retaliated against the demigod race and killed Yunlin, a peak Divine Nether Realm expert.
• Ye Qing and Jun Xuan concluded that the Yang they had seen die was a clone, and Jun Xuan ordered the Great Sages to kill her again and erase her from the river of time.

Shi Lan waged a one-person campaign against the Demigod Race, forcing it to retreat while other races quietly moved to support her. After refusing the Lingyang Heavenly Dao’s offer to become a Ruler and attack the Divine Race, she prepared to return and cultivate; Jun Xuan then declared war on the Human Race to force her into battle.

• The Demigod Race issued a kill order for Yang, but Shi Lan ignored its threats and evaded its forces while striking Demigod settlements with the Sun-Shattering Bow.
• Shi Lan’s strength and the Demigod Race’s losses drew secret support from other races, while she urged Yao to keep the Divine Race from entering the conflict.
• After several years, the Demigod Race withdrew behind its Great Sages, and other races claimed its abandoned territories as Shi Lan continued preparing to open a second dragon gate.
• The Lingyang Heavenly Dao offered Shi Lan a path to becoming a Ruler if she stopped killing Demigods and attacked the Divine Race, but Shi Lan refused and suspected the Divine King could restrain the Heavenly Dao.
• Shi Lan decided to return and enter seclusion, while the Demigod Race’s leaders discussed the growing support for Yang and Jun Xuan proposed wiping out the Human Race to force her into a decisive battle.
