• Liu Chengfeng suppresses the eruption using the Nine Lives Sea, Heaven's Judgment, and World Tree, absorbing the lightning.
• He discovers a deeply hidden remnant of life within the corpse—secretly planted by Old Scholar as a contingency for his son. Using the Return-to-Origin Beast as a vessel, Liu Chengfeng extracts and nurtures the faint life within five spaces of reincarnation, potentially allowing Little Western Heaven to revive someday.
• Liu Chengfeng identifies a lingering divine art—Heaven-Piercing Strike, a four-layer impact technique—and examines it with the Heavenly Dragon Spear.

Character Developments

• Liu Chengfeng: Bravado and narcissism mask sharp instincts. He demonstrates genuine compassion by helping the pitiful Return-to-Origin Beast, and curiosity by studying the dead's divine art. Refuses to back down from any enemy.
• Faceless Stone Statue: Portrayed as the wisest and most protective of Liu Chengfeng; her cryptic warnings ("a fixed constant" of both past and future) reveal deep foresight and care.
• Abo: Attempts to belittle Liu Chengfeng but is instantly humiliated; silently concedes that Liu Chengfeng might indeed be exceptional.
• Yellow Sand Woman: Continually mocks Liu Chengfeng's vanity, yet remains openly supportive when conflict is likely.
• Little Western Heaven: Even in death retains latent potential and the unstoppable spear intent of his strongest technique, underscoring his tragic fate.
• Return-to-Origin Beast: Devoted to its master; sacrifices its essence and is rewarded by Liu Chengfeng, who grants it a path to potentially revive Little Western Heaven.

Significant Themes

• Narcissism vs. competence: Liu Chengfeng's constant self-praise is played for comedy, yet his actions consistently prove his worth.
• Fate and manipulation: The discussion of altering the past/future and "fixed constants" raises questions about destiny and free will.
• Father-son legacy and scheming: Old Scholar's hidden methods within his own son illustrate how even rebellion can be pre-empted by parental control.
• Confronting danger head-on: Liu Chengfeng rejects caution, embracing the principle "knowing there are tigers in the mountain, he still marches toward Tiger Mountain."
• Power beyond death: A Tribulation-Response tier being's corpse retains devastating might, showing the scale of power in this universe.

Character Interactions

• Liu Chengfeng vs. Abo: Abo mocks him as a "minor god cultivator"; Liu Chengfeng immediately retorts, publicly shaming him and leaving Abo silent.
• Liu Chengfeng & Yellow Sand Woman: Playful verbal sparring; she threatens that others might "Devour Whole" him alive, he counters that she is clinging to his thigh for future protection.
• Liu Chengfeng & Faceless Stone Statue: She warns him repeatedly to be cautious; he listens to her insights but insists on his own path. She supports him without further objection.
• Liu Chengfeng & Return-to-Origin Beast: The beast's pitiful pleading wins him over; he completes the good deed and delivers a method that might resurrect its master.

Chapter Summary: “Do You Want to See My Big Treasure?”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Liu Chengfeng absorbs the remaining spear intent and runes from Little Western Heaven’s corpse into the Heavenly Dragon Spear. Using the God-Commanding Art, the Kingdom of Truth, and the Eightfold Heavenly Dragon Spear’s principles, he causes the weapon’s spear technique to evolve automatically.
• At the same time, the Return-to-Origin Beast begins merging with Little Western Heaven’s faint remaining life, though the process will take time.
• Inspired by Little Western Heaven’s four-layer Great Dao heavy strike, Liu Chengfeng works to strengthen his own ultimate techniques. He integrates the Heavenly Dao Eight Treasures into his Sole Self Divine Path and derives several increasingly powerful attacks:

Finisher: Sovereign

Final Strike: Unknowable

Final Strike: Eternity

• Liu Chengfeng then combines these techniques with the Karma Blade and his Sequence-Severing Slash. The resulting blade attacks are powerful enough to threaten beings at the unknowable and unhearable level.
• His companions are shocked when the new technique suppresses Abo, an ancient and extremely powerful existence. Liu Chengfeng explains that this technique is meant to be a reusable killing move, unlike Only I Remain, which consumes too much of his strength to use repeatedly.
• The group warns him that the technique is so destructive it could devastate the World Forest. Liu Chengfeng therefore considers creating a more controlled version and looks for somewhere safe to test it.
• Liu Chengfeng jokingly tries to persuade Abo to become his test subject and teases everyone about showing them his “big treasure.” The misunderstanding irritates Yellow Sand Woman, while Abo refuses to engage with him.
• While waiting for the Heavenly Dragon Spear and Return-to-Origin Beast to complete their transformations, Liu Chengfeng continues refining his cultivation. He integrates the Myriad Longevity Body with the Blood-Origin Awakening Canon, improves his five god treasuries, and further fuses his divine arts.
• Outside the ancestral land, countless sects and races enter the Endless Treasure Land after hearing rumors that it contains opportunities capable of granting cosmic power. Ling Mo opens the World Bridge and charges enormous entry fees, generating vast wealth for the Imperial Gate and Wu Dao Consortium.
• Ling Mo and Thunderwind Saint Emperor suspect that the sudden influx of cultivators indicates a hidden danger or an extraordinary treasure within the Endless Treasure Land.

Character Developments

• Liu Chengfeng advances dramatically as a combatant and creator of divine arts. He develops techniques capable of challenging beings far above his current realm and demonstrates increasing confidence—often bordering on arrogance.
• He also shows strategic foresight. Although he possesses the devastating Only I Remain, he recognizes its limitations and deliberately creates a sustainable, repeatable killing technique for future wars.
• Abo is humbled and angered after being suppressed by Liu Chengfeng’s new blade technique. He recognizes Liu Chengfeng’s strength but dismisses the technique’s practical value because Liu Chengfeng cannot yet unleash its full power.
• Yellow Sand Woman becomes increasingly exasperated by Liu Chengfeng’s shameless teasing and innuendo.
• Ling Mo demonstrates responsible leadership by distributing the large entry-fee profits to the Wu Dao Consortium rather than keeping them personally. She also grows suspicious of the unusual activity surrounding the Endless Treasure Land.
• Thunderwind Saint Emperor acts cautiously, recognizing that the sudden rush of cultivators may conceal a serious problem.

Significant Themes

• Power and restraint: Liu Chengfeng’s techniques are extraordinarily destructive, but their danger forces him to consider control and collateral damage.
• Innovation and evolution: His weapons and divine arts do not merely improve through training; they self-derive, merge, and evolve by combining different sources of Dao, truth, and heavenly power.
• Strategic preparation: Liu Chengfeng prepares for future conflicts by developing techniques that can be used repeatedly rather than relying solely on a single all-or-nothing ultimate move.
• Arrogance and rivalry: Liu Chengfeng’s confidence fuels his progress but also provokes Abo and the others, creating humorous tension.
• Hidden danger beneath opportunity: The enormous number of cultivators entering the Endless Treasure Land reflects the allure of cosmic power, but the characters suspect that such a phenomenon may signal a larger threat.

Important Character Interactions

• Liu Chengfeng and Abo clash verbally after Liu Chengfeng’s new technique overwhelms Abo’s expectations. Liu Chengfeng boasts, while Abo sarcastically minimizes the technique’s value.
• Liu Chengfeng repeatedly provokes Abo by suggesting that he serve as a test subject. Abo angrily refuses and eventually shuts off his senses to ignore him.
• Liu Chengfeng’s “big treasure” joke causes Yellow Sand Woman to misunderstand him, leading to mutual insults and further comedic friction.
• The faceless stone statue serves as a more practical voice, warning Liu Chengfeng that his new blade technique could destroy the surrounding worlds.
• Ling Mo, Li Haodong, and Thunderwind Saint Emperor discuss the strange influx of visitors to the Endless Treasure Land, with Thunderwind emphasizing that the situation may not be as beneficial as it appears.

Chapter Summary: Divine Beast Grand Evolution Spear

1. Key Plot Points & Events

• Liu Chengfeng completes merging with the God Treasury Immortal Body, causing the divine art fused into the Heavenly Dragon Spear to self-evolve into the Divine Beast Grand Evolution Spear — a dimension-tier spear art with a devastating Finisher capable of breaking dimensions.
• He helps the Return-to-Origin Beast reshape Little Western Heaven's life: using the World Tree, he refines the corpse's life lightning into pure essence. He pours half into the Return-to-Origin Beast, which then sacrifices its own strength to finally form Little Western Heaven's weak, fragile life, protecting it inside its five reincarnation chambers before falling into slumber.
• Before sleeping, the Return-to-Origin Beast spits out a strand of Sword Qi that retrieves a broken sword from the starry sky, completing the Ignorance Sword. The sword flies to Liu Chengfeng, and the World Ancient Bridge vanishes, leaving behind an indelible sword scar that still bridges the Ancestral Land to the Endless Treasure Land.
• Liu Chengfeng senses the Ignorance Sword was not forged but cultivated, and suspects its original owner ("the old pedant") has hidden motives.
• He pours the remaining half of the refined essence back into Little Western Heaven's corpse, restoring the Ancestral Land's life force and lightning source, saving Jingjue from decline. Seven Yin Moon is deeply grateful.
• While withdrawing the World Tree's roots, Liu Chengfeng detects lingering killing power on the corpse — the power that killed Little Western Heaven millions of years ago. Despite warnings, he decides to trace it back, even if it may be bait or a trap.
• He asks the Faceless Stone Statue, Yellow Sand Woman, and Abo to guard his physical body while he investigates, but they demand benefits before agreeing.

2. Character Developments

• Liu Chengfeng: Shows humility despite his new power; refuses to be complacent, acknowledging he hasn't yet fused other Finishers. He is compassionate and generous, going out of his way to help the Return-to-Origin Beast and restore Jingjue's Ancestral Land. He is also bold and confrontational, determined to uncover the truth behind Little Western Heaven's death even at risk of falling into a trap.
• Return-to-Origin Beast: Demonstrates extreme loyalty and sacrifice, valuing Little Western Heaven's life above its own and exhausting itself to reshape his life.
• Seven Yin Moon: Moves from internal jealousy of the "bootlickers" to genuine gratitude toward Liu Chengfeng; also regrets missing out on the hidden divine artifact in his own Ancestral Land.
• Faceless Stone Statue: Acts as the cautious strategist, warning against potential traps and then carefully planning when Liu Chengfeng insists.
• Yellow Sand Woman: Excited by danger and chaos; enthusiastically supports Liu Chengfeng's plan but refuses to work without benefits.
• Abo: Aloof and indifferent, feigning ignorance to avoid being roped into trouble.

• Liu Chengfeng and the Return-to-Origin Beast: He helps it despite no clear gain, moved by its loyalty.
• Liu Chengfeng and the ancient entities: Faceless Stone Statue warns caution, Yellow Sand Woman urges action, abo refuses to get involved — collectively they represent different responses to risk.
• Liu Chengfeng and Seven Yin Moon: Seven Yin Moon repeatedly thanks him, granting Liu Chengfeng Jingjue's lasting gratitude.

Chapter Summary: “Watching the Past”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Liu Chengfeng tries to persuade Abo, Yellow Sand Woman, and Faceless Stone Statue to investigate the trap surrounding Little Western Heaven’s corpse.
• Abo and Yellow Sand Woman initially refuse unless Liu pays them with Heaven’s Tears. Liu counters by suggesting the trap may target them rather than him, invoking the mysterious “person” connected to their past and the significant deed they once performed.
• Faceless Stone Statue agrees to support Liu, warning him only to observe the past and avoid interfering. Yellow Sand Woman and Abo eventually join, partly out of suspicion and partly because they refuse to appear cowardly.
• Liu activates his Eternal True-Knowledge Eye and uses Little Western Heaven’s corpse as an anchor to trace events backward through spacetime. The process rapidly consumes his blood vitality and divine power.
• They witness the history of Little Western Heaven, including Seven Yin Moon’s creation of the Ancestral Land and refinement of the corpse, but Liu quickly passes over these events to conserve energy.
• The vision reaches the moment when Little Western Heaven, once a Tribulation-Response Tier powerhouse, forces his way into the World Forest while gravely wounded and suppressing his cultivation to evade the World Forest’s laws.
• Little Western Heaven is fleeing from an unknown threat. Abo identifies the Land Beyond the Law as part of the surrounding mystery, while Faceless Stone Statue notices an enormous shadow overhead.
• The shadow belongs to the centipede-like kite Liu has encountered in other dangerous regions. It expands over the Desolate Sea, plunging countless worlds into darkness.
• A strange Space-Time Light-Shadow Body forms from the World Array and power drawn from countless worlds. It bends spacetime, suppresses karma, and creates a domain that allows it to manifest.
• The entity attacks Little Western Heaven. Despite Little Western Heaven’s supreme Final Strike—an attack capable of destroying countless worlds or universes—the entity neutralizes it effortlessly.
• The Space-Time Light-Shadow Body pins down and crushes Little Western Heaven. When it tries to crush his skull, Liu and the others realize that something important, likely connected to Old Scholar, is hidden inside his head. The chapter ends as a crack appears in his skull.

Character Developments

• Liu Chengfeng demonstrates his skill at manipulation and persuasion. He deliberately exploits Abo’s and Yellow Sand Woman’s fear of their mysterious past and the being connected to it.
• He remains cautious about revealing his true motives, trying first to obtain their help without paying them, but ultimately risks his own strength to investigate the past.
• Faceless Stone Statue becomes the most reliable supporter of Liu’s plan. Though she recognizes his deception, she chooses to back him and takes responsibility for guarding his body.
• Yellow Sand Woman maintains her pride and hostility toward both Liu and Faceless Stone Statue, but her fear and curiosity compel her to participate.
• Abo is portrayed as cynical, greedy, and suspicious. He demands payment but is also visibly unsettled by the possibility that the trap concerns his own past.
• Little Western Heaven is revealed to have once been an overwhelmingly powerful Tribulation-Response Tier being. Even while dying and suppressing his strength, he fights desperately and unleashes a devastating final attack.
• The Space-Time Light-Shadow Body is established as an almost incomprehensible force, operating without ordinary divine power, blood vitality, divine paths, or visible rules.

Character Interactions

• Liu repeatedly bargains and argues with Abo and Yellow Sand Woman, using fear and logical speculation to pressure them into cooperating.
• Faceless Stone Statue interrupts the dispute by agreeing to help, prompting Yellow Sand Woman to join so she will not be outdone.
• Liu praises Faceless Stone Statue extravagantly after she supports him, irritating Yellow Sand Woman, who calls him disgusting and lecherous.
• Faceless Stone Statue repeatedly warns Liu not to interfere with the timeline, showing both concern for the consequences and awareness of his reckless nature.
• While watching the past, the group jointly analyzes the clues surrounding Little Western Heaven, the Land Beyond the Law, the kite, and Old Scholar’s influence.

Significant Themes

• Manipulation and mutual distrust: Liu succeeds by exploiting the others’ fears, while everyone recognizes that he is manipulating them.
• The danger of the past: Ancient deeds and unresolved karma continue to attract terrifying enemies, suggesting that past actions remain active forces in the present.
• Limits of power: Little Western Heaven’s supreme strength proves useless against the Space-Time Light-Shadow Body, emphasizing the existence of beings beyond conventional cultivation and combat.
• Observation versus interference: The group must witness history without altering it, highlighting the tension between gaining knowledge and becoming involved in dangerous events.
• Hidden truths and concealed legacies: The entity’s assault reveals that Little Western Heaven’s skull contains something important, likely an artifact or secret connected to Old Scholar.
• Cosmic scale and helplessness: The darkness covering millions of worlds and the entity’s ability to manipulate spacetime reinforce the vastness of the forces involved and the characters’ vulnerability before them.
