On Dragon Five Island, Wang Qi learned that the dragon clan’s martial inheritance pointed to a history among the stars, while Feng Luoyi warned that the island held a dangerous secret.

After the Starflash Heavenly Abyss scattered the group across Dragon Five and Dragon Six Islands, Ai Changyuan and Wu Shiqin regrouped and contacted Lu Qianqian, who was stranded with the unconscious Ai Changguang. As the survivors planned their next moves and discussed the danger around them, Wang Qi warned that the dragons’ fragmented message pointed to a threat involving the Dragon King and possibly sea demons.

After helping Ai Changyuan and Lu Qianqian stay hidden, Wang Qi sheltered the injured Mao Zimiao and learned more about Eternal True Color from Feng Luoyi. He realized the Deep Space Path’s martial arts carried important information about cosmic disasters and began transmitting their true meaning to a calculating device.

• Wang Qi warned Lu Qianqian to hide Ai Changguang and reassured her that Ai Changyuan was unlikely to die, while Feng Luoyi promised to remain a hidden safeguard.
• Wang Qi carried Mao Zimiao into a rocky grotto, concealed his swords, set up the Yin Yang Baihe Sword Array, and dried her clothes.

Wang Qi witnessed a True Meaning Transmission showing the universe darkening in an ancient cosmic battle and learned that the Mysterious Star Observatory had detected matching stellar changes from two hundred million years ago.

• Feng Luoyi helped Wang Qi recognize that the phenomenon represented a battle between immortal factions, then warned him that the inheritance’s ancient will was eroding him.
• Feng Luoyi revealed that the Mysterious Star Observatory had detected red-shifted stars about two hundred million light-years away, indicating a cosmic event from two hundred million years earlier.
• Wang Qi connected the stellar changes to the dragon race’s destruction two hundred million years ago and realized the old dragon in the Holy Dragon Abyss might know the truth.

Wang Qi concluded that the Dragon Race’s lost history might be vital to the Immortal Alliance and prepared to search for a Dragon Race woman near Holy Dragon Abyss. Meanwhile, Ancient Method Cultivators tortured Ai Changyuan and planned to test whether he would reveal his inherited cultivation method.

• Wang Qi reasoned that the island’s temple was probably a Later Demon Race ruin and began modifying a Demon Race artifact to make use of its spiritual restrictions.
• Wang Qi explained to Zhen Chanzi why a black hole’s immense power would not let it destroy the universe, and Zhen Chanzi returned to his ring to read.

• The Ancient Method Cultivators planned to ask Ai Changyuan about the core of his inherited cultivation method and use soul-searching if he refused to answer.

Ai Changyuan and Wu Shiqin were captured by Ancient Method Cultivators and held in a temple ruin, where Ai deduced that their captors wanted information and hoped to use them. While secretly communicating with Wu, Ai ate a hidden Newton’s Apple and began planning to refine its power into something their captors could not imprison.

• After finding a footprint that suggested enemies were nearby, Ai Changyuan contacted his teammates from the shore rather than carrying Wu Shiqin farther inland.
• Ai explained that their captors had spared them and avoided irreversible injuries because they wanted information and might need the pair to interpret manuals or clear the ruin’s traps.
• Ai and Wu examined the temple’s strange dome, and Ai secretly wrote to Wu that they should speak as little as possible and wait.
• Ai pretended to give in, then ate the concealed food bundle, including pieces of Newton’s Apple, while considering how to escape.
• Ai decided to refine the apple’s power into a form that could not be imprisoned, since he had no spiritual power to fight their captors.

While imprisoned by Ancient Method Cultivators, Ai Changyuan secretly refined Newton's Apple and prepared to use its power to manifest spiritual energy as gravity. Pan Jueming threatened Ai Changyuan and Wu Shiqin to obtain the Ai Family's inherited cultivation method, giving Ai Changyuan an opening to share selected methods.

As he faced a mysterious trial, Wang Qi struggled with the Dragon Clan’s Disaster Dao inheritance and woke to find Mao Zimiao awake.

• Pan Jueming demanded that Ai Changyuan teach the Ancient Method Cultivators Modern Dharma techniques, while Ai Changyuan secretly planned to trap them with backdoors in a new cultivation method.
• Ai Changyuan persuaded Pan Jueming to provide stone slabs and charcoal, then openly began deriving the method and embedding vulnerabilities he could exploit with Myriad Image Celestial Pull.
• Ai Changyuan sensed that he was undergoing the fruit’s trial and chanted insights for his new method as his perception of the world warped.
• Wang Qi witnessed civilizations collapsing under the godly disaster through the Dragon Clan coin and severed his consciousness from it to steady his mind.
• Wang Qi opened his eyes and found Mao Zimiao awake beside him.

Wang Qi used the Devil's Great Curse and seized magical treasures to defeat successive groups of cultivators, then decided to keep fighting until he captured someone important enough to question about the island and Ai Changyuan and Wu Shiqin.

• Wang Qi used the Yin Yang Baihe Sword Array and the Five Pestilence Total Curse to overwhelm Fu Yunzi and Gao Ming, then seized their Natal Treasures and bound them.
• Wang Qi concluded that he could still draw on enough curse power to fight a Nascent Soul Cultivator, though Shenjing had restricted his access to the Devil's Great Curse.
• Wang Qi unleashed Shaggai Insects on another Unrivaled Sword Sect group, defeated its Golden Core leader with the seized heavenly tome and protective astral qi, and took his Natal Treasure.
• Wang Qi noted that the Datafied Cultivation Method made life-risking techniques too dangerous to use, while letting him command artificial creations and magical artifacts.
• Wang Qi told Mao Zimiao they could interrogate the captured cultivators but warned her not to make eye contact, and planned to keep defeating incoming groups until he captured someone important.

Wang Qi subdued another Ancient Method Golden Core Cultivator and turned the seized pills, spirit stones, and artifacts into new power, explaining how he grew stronger by developing techniques during battle. As a Nascent Soul cultivator’s spiritual pressure descended, Wang Qi summoned hundreds of artifacts to face the newcomer.

• Ai Changyuan rejected Lord of Yuanli’s outdated ideas and reshaped the vision of the universe in his heart.
