Chapter Summaries

Guen completed several Dangerous Level Missions, surviving the Fengquan River Domain and collecting valuable treasures before returning to the Primal Secret Realm. After recovering and spending most of his wealth on supplies and equipment, he chose the Yulun World for his next mission.

• Guen left Neon Island with the Void Heavy Light after deciding that the cavern below was likely an Immortal mass grave rather than a treasure trove.
• Guen completed the Neon Island and Viska Star missions, then spent five and a half years completing the Fengquan River Domain mission after a Space-time Rift Hurricane swept him deep into the domain.
• Guen returned with three drops of Green Smoke Dew and Void Heavy Light, earning forty-five thousand points across his recent missions.
• Guen spent a year recovering and stabilizing Constant Heart Transformation, then sold one drop of Green Smoke Dew and bought Bingli, battle suits, a detector, and protective treasures.
• Guen chose a Dangerous Level Mission in the Yulun World, located in the Universe Mercenary Alliance's Heroic Spirit Secret Realm.

Guen entered the Universe Mercenary Alliance's Heroic Spirit Secret Realm and traveled to Yulun World to undertake the “Crown in the Rain” mission. After arriving in the sixth layer, he considered the dangers of finding Rain Beast Kings and ventured into the mist.

• Guen entered the Heroic Spirit Secret Realm with Samoding and Mr. Kelo, whose escort brought him to the approach to Yulun World.
• Mr. Kelo warned Guen to enter Yulun World through one of its lower three layers, and Samoding reminded him that the escort could not remain for more than ten years.
• Guen flew his disguised spacecraft toward the sixth layer, then stopped in the mist and continued on foot with the Thunder Dragon Staff.
• Guen reviewed his mission to collect the skulls of 108 different Rain Beast Kings and concluded that the upper layers offered the most reliable hunting grounds.
• Guen sighed over the difficulty of the mission and ventured deeper into the mist.

Guen remained trapped in the Yulun World’s faction conflict while escorting a young woman disguised as a man, and a Flying Dragon Knight force finally cornered him in the Golden Rain Realm. After the general exposed Guen’s disguise and attacked him with a world projection, Guen revealed his Constant Heart Transformation, while a sword strike pierced the general’s armor from behind.

• Guen fled with the young man in blue as Flying Dragon Knights pursued them using a tracking caterpillar.
• Guen hid the young man in his World Ring, disguised himself as a black bear, and provoked a giant ape to cover his escape.
• The Flying Dragon Knights killed the giant ape, and their general recognized Guen’s unusual metallic sheen and trapped him in a world of waves and rain.
• Guen transformed with Constant Heart Transformation and pushed back the general’s world projection within a few hundred meters.
• A streak of sword light struck the general from behind and pierced his armor.

Guen fought the Flying Dragon General under the pressure of his World Projection, but was badly injured in their clash. A hidden Black Dragon Family swordsman and an attacker wielding a Thunder Dragon Staff intervened, forcing the general to retreat while Guen flew away with the general following at a distance.

• The Flying Dragon General offered to spare Guen if he handed over the girl from the Black Dragon Family, but Guen refused as the general's World Projection pressed down on him.
• The general attacked with Tornado Sand Sea, and Guen answered with Qingtian, but the clash shattered Guen's arms and injured his organs.
• Guen healed himself with a piece of the Life Fruit, and a hidden swordsman struck the general from behind, revealing the Ghost Dragon Sword Technique and the Black Dragon Family's remnant.
• An attacker sent a lightning-wreathed Thunder Dragon Staff at the general, who used Sea Kingdom Dragon Power to counter both assailants.
• The general activated a water garment that stopped the swordsman's attack, then escaped as the swordsman turned on the other Flying Dragon Knights.
• Guen flew away, while the Flying Dragon General followed him at a distance and signaled goodwill.

After rescuing Qing, Guen learned she was the last pureblood of the Black Dragon Family and that her family planned to reclaim its ancestral treasure without him. He left to resume his Cultivation Missions, accepting that opportunities could not be forced.

• The Flying Dragon Knight caught up with Guen and asked for the blue-robed youth, then reunited with her as Uncle Sang after she revealed herself as Qing.
• Qing told Guen she was the last surviving pureblood of the Black Dragon Family and explained the Dragon Bloodline clans and their means of identification.
• Santis said he and Qing needed to return to the Shadow Rain Realm to reclaim the Black Dragon Family's treasure, but Guen declined to join them and departed.
• Guen reflected with Moto and the Niehuo Thorn on their failed search for an opportunity and concluded that they should let chances come naturally.
• Guen felt calmer after the experience and decided to return to his Cultivation Missions.

Guen, disguised as Yan Jun, joined a group of cultivators hunting Rain Beasts in Shadow Rain Realm. The hunters found a huge Rain Beast Cloud and heard a roar that Yahiko identified as a Rain Beast King, while several companions were forced to retreat after Divine Rain began poisoning them.

• Guen settled into Shadow Rain Realm under the name Yan Jun and joined a small alliance heading east to hunt Rain Beasts.
• Yahiko led the group toward Dongshan District 15 after hearing a large Rain Beast Cloud had appeared there.
• The hunters crossed Dongshan District 13 and spotted a cloud-sign that Rain Beasts were nearby, so Yahiko urged everyone to fly faster.
• A powerful roar sounded as the group neared the cloud, and Yahiko excitedly recognized it as a Rain Beast King.
• Divine Rain drenched the group and marked several fourth-tier cultivators with ink-like stains, so they withdrew while Guen and the others continued.

Guen observed Rain Beasts attacking a group of Fighters in the Rain Beast Cloud and discovered that their boss had been controlled by Soul Control and was helping the beasts hunt. As more Rain Beasts converged on his position, Guen realized they had somehow found him.

• Yahiko warned his group about the dangers of the Rain Beast Cloud, and Guen used Moto’s probe to locate two Rain Beasts fighting Fighters nearby.
• Yahiko sensed signs of a battle but chose to keep moving, while Guen quietly left the group to investigate.
• The Rain Beasts’ attacks wounded the Fighters’ souls, and their boss killed two men who tried to flee or challenge him.
• Guen recognized that Soul Control had turned the boss against his Fighters and that the Rain Beasts had arranged the fight as a hunt.
• Moto detected many Rain Beasts converging from across the area, and Guen realized their paths led toward him.

Guen discovered that Rain Beasts could only be seriously harmed when pure law energy was driven into their bodies, and he began using secret techniques to kill them. As the remaining Rain Beasts feared him, the Spirit Reader controlling the Bronze Yues advanced and attacked.

• Guen wounded a Rain Beast with a short spike but found that his ordinary attacks passed through the creatures without harming them.
• Guen observed the Bronze Yues passing through Rain Beasts before channeling energy and realized that law energy had to enter their bodies to damage them.
• Guen used the Anbao secret technique to make a Rain Beast explode, then seized and destroyed its core bone, killing its soul.
• Guen attacked other Rain Beasts with Ancient God Spear and Amethyst Feather Chain, driving law energy into them and leaving them unable to fight back.
• The terrified Rain Beasts stopped charging Guen, while the Spirit Reader controlling the Bronze Yues stepped forward and attacked.

Guen killed the remaining Rain Beasts and collected their spatially charged Life Cores before following the shifting Rain Beast Cloud west. He discovered the Flying Dragon Family was seeking remnants of the Black Dragon Family and the Black Dragon Treasure, then continued after the cloud.

• Guen gathered eighteen Rain Beast Life Cores, stored them in his World Ring, and told Moto to investigate how to use their spatial power.
• Guen followed the Spirit Reader west as the Rain Beast Cloud began moving and dissipating.
• The intelligent toad-like Rain Beast tried to flee from the World Lord-level Rain Beasts surrounding it and decided to lure dangerous creatures to its location.
• Moto directed Guen northwest, where his detector revealed a group of Flying Dragon Family members.
• Third General dismissed a young knight's concerns, insulted the Supreme General, and ordered the group to find the Black Dragon Family remnants after killing more Rain Beasts.
• Guen recognized the Flying Dragon Family's search for the Black Dragon Treasure but chose to continue following the Rain Beast Cloud.

Guen discovered that the Rain Beast King controlled the rain beasts and charged through its protectors to reach it. The Rain Beast King struck back with a spatial attack, catching Guen by surprise.

• Guen realized the Spirit Reader under Soul Control was the Rain Beast King, which directed the rain beast cloud despite having only ordinary Domain Lord strength.
• Guen used the Niehuo Thorn’s power to race toward the Rain Beast King while staying clear of the main battlefield.
• The Rain Beast King sensed Guen approaching and recognized him as the Fighter who had spared its enslaved Spirit Reader.
• Guen smashed through the Domain Lord Level rain beasts protecting the Rain Beast King and collected their Life Cores.
• The Rain Beast King revealed a spatial rune on its forehead and attacked Guen with a beam that threatened to shatter the space around him.

Guen discovered that the Rain Beast King's runes held a pure Mystery of Space and killed it to gain its skull and advance his cultivation of the Law of Space. The World Lord Level Rain Beasts sensed the death and turned on Guen in a furious frenzy.

• Guen shattered the Rain Beast King's spatial attack and recognized its runes as a pure Mystery of Space.
• The Rain Beast King fled toward the World Lord Level Rain Beasts, but Guen pursued it and trapped it with attacks that poisoned and weakened its body.
• The Rain Beast King's soul attack failed against Guen's defense, and Guen bound and killed it with phantom chains.
• Guen took the Rain Beast King's crystalline skull, while the Spirit Reader controlling the Bronze Yue plunged toward the ground and lost all signs of life.
• The World Lord Level Rain Beasts sensed the Rain Beast King's death, roared in fury, and went berserk.

Guen studied the Rain Beast King's skull and traveled through the Shadow Rain Realm, seeking a way to enter the Rainstorm Realm without permission. After buying five peak fourth-tier mounts, he set off toward Tiansuo Mountain to search for a hidden route.

• Guen studied the Rain Beast King's skull with Moto but could not activate its spatial mystery.
• Guen considered ways to enter the Rainstorm Realm and decided to sneak in rather than use the Void Passage or seek a permit.
• Guen bought all five of the Beast Taming Tower's peak fourth-tier mounts and paid with currency taken from the Flying Dragon Family's pursuers.
• Guen ignored the shopkeeper's dismissive remarks and headed for Tiansuo Mountain to look for a route into the Rainstorm Realm.

Guen discovered Qing and Santis, the last survivors of the Black Dragon Family, trapped by the Flying Dragon Family and carrying a cracked Magic Stone that could lead to the Rainstorm Realm. He attacked the pursuers with his spaceship’s secondary main cannon, then moved to finish off the wounded Supreme General, but the Third General struck him with green smoke.

• Guen used the Meixing Ship’s scanners to find four Flying Dragon Family generals besieging Qing and Santis inside a shrinking energy barrier.
• Santis gave Qing the cracked Magic Stone and urged her to escape with it when the barrier broke, while he prepared to defend her.
• Guen decided to take the Magic Stone as a route to the Rainstorm Realm and fired the spaceship’s secondary main cannon at the Flying Dragon Family.
• The cannon destroyed many attackers and badly wounded the Supreme General, while the surviving First Stage World Lord fled.
• Guen charged the Supreme General, but the Third General exhaled green smoke that struck him before he could react.

• Guen activated the Flying Dragon Family's Magic Stone to cross the world barrier and enter the Rainstorm Realm, where he found a harsh downpour and Rain Beast Cloud nearby.
• A swift creature ambushed Guen, but he pierced its skull and crushed its Life Core with the power of space.

Guen and Qing encountered Immortal Yushan after a space-time vortex dragged Guen underground, where the ancient creature revealed it had watched Guen for a year. Yushan demanded that Guen leave Yulun World and take his World Lord-level offspring with him.

• Qing trained near the hidden cave while Guen praised her progress and said they would move to hunt Rain Beast Kings elsewhere.
• Guen flew across the Rainstorm Realm and stopped after sensing space-time solidifying above a colossal creature underground.
• A space-time vortex swallowed Guen and transported him to the Immortal creature, who called himself Yushan and demanded that Guen release Qing.
• Yushan explained that he had watched Guen since he entered the Rainstorm Realm and recognized him as someone from Xuetao.
• Yushan told Guen to leave Yulun World and take the World Lord-level creature, his offspring, with him, leaving Guen stunned.

The Immortal Yushan revealed that the Yushan were rare Special Lifeforms born as World Lords and explained why she wanted Guen to help her people grow stronger. Facing her ultimatum, Guen asked to stay in the Yushan world while she assessed him, and she agreed to let Laoyao show him around.

• The Immortal Yushan told Guen that Yushan bones could become Dingjie Mountain and that her people were born as World Lords.
• The Immortal Yushan explained that her Prison talent protected the Yushan ancestral land but left her unable to move, and that she wanted another Yushan to become Immortal.
• The Immortal Yushan said she had chosen Guen as a gamble because of his strength, potential, and treatment of Qing, then demanded that he accept or face her power.
• Guen asked to stay in the Yushan world so the Immortal Yushan could take time to judge him.
• The Immortal Yushan agreed and told Laoyao to show Guen and Qing around the Yushan world.

Guen stayed under Immortal Yushan’s watch and gained access to the Rainstorm Realm’s Rain Beast Kings, using their Life Runes to cultivate after completing his mission. He remained unsure whether he would ever be allowed to leave Yulun World alive.

• Leisi introduced himself as Immortal Yushan’s youngest child and carried Guen and Qing through underground passages to a vast magma lake.
• Leisi explained that Immortal Yushan had made the Magic Stones that let Guen enter the Rainstorm Realm and had noticed him immediately.
• Guen sent Niehuo Thorn into the Flameglow Lake, where the vine easily endured the heat and declared the lake beneficial.
• Guen used a Lightning-law rod to force a Domain Lord Level Rain Beast King to repeatedly activate its Life Rune while he studied its spatial mysteries.
• After Qing warned him the Rain Beast King was near its limit, Guen killed it and collected his 108th Rain Beast Crown Skull, completing his mission.

Guen and the Yushan Clan strengthened their cooperation as Leisi explained how his Prison talent worked and Guen continued teaching him. The Immortal Yushan rewarded Qing with access to a Black Dragon treasure and revealed that the Divine Rain Realm had learned to activate Rain Beast Crown Skulls.

• Leisi explained that his Prison talent grew stronger with repeated use but made movement increasingly difficult, and described how the Yushan could reinforce Guen's future world.
• Guen agreed to stay with Leisi while he recovered and continued teaching him a claw technique, as Qing reflected on the years they had spent in the Rainstorm Realm.
• The Immortal Yushan recognized Qing's Black Dragon bloodline and sent her to the Ten Thousand Dragon Pagoda to claim a Black Dragon treasure.
• The Immortal Yushan showed Guen a vision of a four-armed World Lord activating a Rain Beast Crown Skull by imitating a Rain Beast King’s sound.
• The Immortal Yushan shared what she knew about the secret with Guen, confirming that trust between him and the Yushan Clan had been established.

Guen learned to activate a Rain Beast Crown Skull, though mastering even one took decades and left strange marks on his body. News of Tiqi’s death made him confront the dangers facing his fellow geniuses, and he returned to training with renewed resolve.

• Immortal Yushan warned Guen that mastering the Rain Beast Crown Skulls meant grasping the 108 basic mysteries of the Law of Space, and he offered to send Guen to the Divine Rain Realm.
• Guen refused to enter the Divine Rain Realm and instead studied Rain Beast Kings that Immortal Yushan had gathered for him.
• After thirty-seven years, Guen activated his first Rain Beast Crown Skull Secret Method, producing ten thousand spatial phantoms and discovering that reliable use required 70 times strength amplification.
• Moto told Guen that Kandeli and Aiya had passed the eighth Heavenly Bridge level, while Han and Alingtu had also made progress.
• Guen read a Virtual Universe Company notice reporting that Tiqi had died on a Cultivation Mission, the first member of the Taichu Secret Realm from their class to fall.
• Guen remembered Tiqi, returned to his Rain Beast Crown Skull training, and continued striving to advance.

Guen realized that his Rain Beast Crown Skull technique depended on his own advanced comprehension and could not replace the Divine Rain Realm’s teachable method, so Yushan funded his continued research. After three more years of seclusion, Guen showed King Kongnan that he had mastered far more of the Qizu Secret Canon than expected, leaving his teacher delighted with his progress and confident future.

• Yushan explained that Guen’s way of activating the Rain Beast Crown Skull could only work for cultivators who had already studied Space extensively, and promised to fund his research.
• Guen reunited with Qing and declined the reward she offered for his help with the Black Dragon Treasure.
• After three years of further cultivation, Guen accepted King Kongnan’s call and asked for guidance on the first two volumes of Qizu Secret Canon.
• Guen spent two months answering questions about his studies, surprising King Kongnan with his mastery of the first three diagrams of the Universe Chaos Monument.
• Guen said he was confident he could pass the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge, and King Kongnan praised his progress and predicted he would surpass his Eldest Senior Brother.
