• Han Han explains that Darkheart Saint’s first inheritance trial lasts an entire epoch and tests the repeated transformation and refinement of one’s willpower, rather than simple endurance. He chooses not to help Hong immediately, hoping Hong can obtain the inheritance independently.
• Han Han enters the Heaven-Refining Hall, the Universe Boat’s energy-control region and one of its most dangerous areas. The hall contains remnants of energy-conversion machinery capable of producing power greater than that of the Chaos Golden Wings.
• He concludes that the machinery’s destruction caused a catastrophic energy eruption, possibly making the Heaven-Refining Hall the true location of Temporal Order Saint’s fall.
• A damaged mechanical puppet attacks Han Han with crimson energy beams approaching the power of a Void True God. Han Han evades the strongest attack using the Spacetime Divine Palace.
• The puppet, identified as a product of the Wu Kingdom’s advanced mechanical-puppet technology, continues firing at him. Because its energy-conversion core is damaged, its attacks gradually weaken.
• Han Han withstands the weaker beams with his derivative armor, then damages the puppet’s critical mechanisms rather than destroying it outright.
• Deeper inside the hall, Han Han finds numerous wreckages and detects a destructive aura resembling the power of World Beasts. He deduces that a fifth- or possibly sixth-tier World Beast fought there, confirming that the area was likely a major battlefield.
• A powerful willpower shockwave strikes Han Han, carrying the pressure of a God King. His inheritance mark automatically neutralizes the attack, convincing him that the phenomenon is connected to Temporal Order Saint.
• Han Han summons Zuoshanke, who takes 1,088 years to arrive. Zuoshanke determines that the source is not a corpse but several drops of divine blood.

• Giant Axe, Chaos, and Dark show caution and strategic discipline by refusing to enter the Dim Land together.
• Dark True God takes on the dangerous scouting role, reflecting his willingness to protect the Human Race’s stronger forces.

Significant Themes

• Potential versus circumstance: Temporal Order Saint’s fate and Dongxin Venerable’s limitations show how birthplace, allegiance, and foundational conditions can determine whether talent is realized.
• Practicality over ideal power: Han Han abandons the idea of a direct willpower-killing weapon in favor of a more achievable amplifying artifact.
• The cost of forbidden choices: Temporal Order Saint’s attempt to enslave World Beasts led to his death and prevented him from reaching his full potential.
• Caution in the face of unknown danger: The Human Race carefully probes the Dim Land rather than risking all its strongest experts at once.
• Responsibility and resource allocation: Han Han seeks suitable opportunities for multiple human experts instead of monopolizing inheritances or suppressing rivals.

Character Interactions

• Zuoshanke explains Temporal Order Saint’s fate and advises Han Han on how to use the blood beads effectively; Han Han accepts his recommendation.
• Han Han and Darkheart Saint discuss the inheritance contest. Darkheart initially suspects Han Han may wish to eliminate Dongxin Venerable, but Han Han rejects the idea of bullying a weaker competitor.
• Han Han reassures Darkheart Saint that other inheritances exist and that he will find opportunities for Hong, Luo Feng, and Thunder God.
• Giant Axe, Chaos, and Dark debate how to enter the Dim Land safely, ultimately agreeing that Dark True God should scout alone while reporting any danger immediately.
