Chapter Summaries

Chapter Summary: A Reseller on the Boundary Heart Continent

Key Plot Points and Events

• Zhang Dong arrives in Xiafeng Capital and immediately focuses on increasing his strength so that he can travel more efficiently and survive on the Boundary Heart Continent.
• Having already comprehended the Pole Divine Heart, he successfully establishes his Divine Sea and advances to the World God realm—specifically becoming a First Heaven Realm Deity.
• His Divine Sea is extraordinarily vast because it is formed from a First-Class Divine Heart, reaching approximately a hundred million li. His Inner World begins to take shape, containing varied terrain such as rivers, deserts, grasslands, and an island holding the original Realm Lord’s internal world.
• Zhang Dong recognizes the enormous difference between deities and World Gods. With his current strength and Inner World Projection, he believes he could easily defeat hundreds of millions of ordinary deities.
• He begins considering how to profit from items brought from the Primordial Universe. Though such items are nearly worthless on the Origin Continent, they retain some value on the Boundary Heart Continent.
• He plans to sell weapons such as the E9 Laser Gun and, more importantly, Fermo Venom, which can kill powerful God Level beings with minimal contact.
• His newly increased cultivation allows him to cross several streets of Xiafeng Capital in only a few hours, demonstrating the dramatic improvement in his speed.
• Zhang Dong enters a treasure workshop market to find a shop where he can sell his goods. After passing through areas catering to stronger cultivators, he reaches the section serving World Gods and deities.
• He enters a modest shop selling True Deity and Realm Divine Artifacts and offers to sell Fermo Venom in large quantities. The shopkeeper initially shows little interest because items capable of killing God Level beings are generally inexpensive.

Character Development

• Zhang Dong: Advances from a First Heaven Realm Deity to a World God by establishing his Divine Sea. He gains immense power, a massive Inner World, and greatly increased travel speed. He also begins adapting to the Boundary Heart Continent by thinking strategically about commerce rather than relying solely on cultivation.
• The shopkeeper: Introduced as practical and indifferent. He is initially unimpressed by Zhang Dong’s offer, though the possibility of purchasing the lethal substance in bulk catches his attention.

Significant Themes

• The vast hierarchy of power: The chapter emphasizes the gulf between deities and World Gods through the size of their Divine Seas and the strength of their Inner Worlds.
• Adaptation and survival: Zhang Dong must adjust to the social and economic realities of the Boundary Heart Continent, where treasures from his former homeland have different values.
• Resourcefulness and commerce: Rather than simply seeking battles or cultivation resources, Zhang Dong identifies a profitable niche by selling weapons and poisons unavailable or valuable in this new region.
• The scale of the Boundary Heart Continent: Even a newly established World God attracts little attention in Xiafeng Capital, where powerful cultivators are commonplace.

Character Interactions

• Zhang Dong’s establishment of his Divine Sea is observed casually by nearby cultivators, reflecting how insignificant such an advancement appears in Xiafeng Capital.
• He surveys the market and ignores vendors advertising True Divine Artifacts, recognizing that he cannot yet afford their wares.
• His main interaction is with the burly shopkeeper, to whom he politely presents Fermo Venom as a mass-market product. The shopkeeper responds curtly and asks to inspect it, setting up the chapter’s commercial negotiation.

Chapter Summary

Zhang Dong swears an oath to Qu Yu, who agrees to buy any future weapons with novel designs. Zhang Dong considers obtaining advanced Mechanical Race weapons, whose ingenious designs and ease of use may make them especially valuable, even if their raw power is limited. He also plans to sell more of his unique venom.
Seeking materials for creating a Clone, Zhang Dong asks Qu Yu for unusual lifeform remains, preferably at the World God level. After browsing the shop’s vast collection of dead and living beings from many races, he chooses two plant lifeforms: a God-level Sun Tree and a Falling Star flower. Plant-based Clones seem more likely to succeed when crossing between different Source Worlds. Although both corpses are valuable, Qu Yu gives them to Zhang Dong for free because he cannot understand their purpose.
Zhang Dong continues contemplating how to use his enormous Cosmic Crystal fortune, recognizing that he is safe enough to display it only because he is in Xiafeng Capital. He then returns to the Primordial Realm, where the different universal laws restore his overwhelming strength and confirm his status as the richest being in the Primordial Universe.
Upon his return, supreme rules briefly descend, seemingly warning him. The Jade Green Bubble protects him from the pressure, but Zhang Dong suspects the warning is connected to the Cosmic Crystal, an item surpassing the True Deity level, rather than the relatively ordinary plant corpses.
The two transplanted lifeform remains then begin collapsing inside his World Ring because their original existence depended on the laws of their Source World. The Sun Tree rapidly expands to roughly one hundred thousand kilometers, while the Falling Star grows to over sixty thousand kilometers across, but their leaves, branches, and petals disintegrate under the Primordial Universe’s rules. Fortunately, the collapse eventually stops, leaving their primary structures intact.

Character Development and Interactions

• Zhang Dong becomes increasingly strategic and cautious, planning to exploit Mechanical Race technology, preserve his Cosmic Crystal wealth, and create a powerful Clone.
• Qu Yu remains commercially shrewd but shows generosity by giving Zhang Dong the two plant corpses. Their relationship develops into a mutually beneficial business partnership.
• Zhang Dong’s confidence rises after returning to the Primordial Universe, where he regains his status as a supreme powerhouse, though the warning from the supreme rules reminds him that even he must respect higher powers.

Significant Themes

• Cross-world incompatibility: Objects and lifeforms are shaped by the laws of their native Source World and may deteriorate when transported elsewhere.
• Power and restriction: Zhang Dong’s immense strength and wealth do not make him immune to the supreme rules.
• Resource exploitation and preparation: He carefully seeks unusual materials, weapons, and technologies to expand his future capabilities.
• Protection and mystery: The Jade Green Bubble continues to shield Zhang Dong from dangers connected to higher-level forces and objects such as the Cosmic Crystal.

Chapter Summary: “Clone Successful (Please Keep Reading)”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Zhang Dong successfully transplants the dead Sun Tree into his internal world using the Bitter Snow Vine’s innate secret technique, Transplantation.
• The technique replicates the Sun Tree’s structure and information, creating a new Sun Tree Clone despite the original body’s collapse and incompatibility with the Primordial Universe’s laws.
• The transplanted Sun Tree revives and grows into a towering tree roughly 100,000 kilometers tall. Zhang Dong supplies it with energy items to support its growth.
• Zhang Dong then transplants Falling Star, successfully reproducing it as another Clone with all its petals restored.
• He discovers that both the Sun Tree and Falling Star possess a genetic level of 1,000 times, equal to that of his Bitter Snow Vine. He is confused because the Sun Tree’s potential should have been far greater, but concludes that its genes may be evaluated differently because it originated from another Source World.
• With both Clones completed, Zhang Dong travels to the remote secret realm where his senior brother, Dark Marquis Lord, resides.
• Zhang Dong reveals the Sun Tree and announces that he is now prepared to undertake a Life-and-Death Trial.

Significant Themes

• Transcendence through opportunity: Zhang Dong’s extraordinary gains come from rare treasures and techniques unavailable to ordinary cultivators.
• Limits versus potential: The Sun Tree has extraordinary growth potential, but its current genetic level and development remain constrained by the Source World and the laws governing its Clone.
• Control over overwhelming power: The chapter emphasizes that possessing a massive divine body is not enough; proper control methods and mental will are necessary to use it effectively.
• Secrecy and trust: Zhang Dong withholds the true origin of the Sun Tree, while Dark Marquis Lord understands that powerful figures naturally keep some opportunities secret.

Chapter Summary

Key Plot Points and Events

• Zhang Dong asks Dark Marquis Lord for permission to undergo the Life-and-Death Trial, motivated less by amusement and more by the need to earn Hunyuan Units and acquire resources such as Fermo Venom, True Divine Artifacts, and powerful secret techniques.
• Dark Marquis Lord agrees and anticipates that Zhang Dong may achieve peak King-Level combat power, given his extraordinary comprehension and previous opportunities.
• Before entering the trial, Zhang Dong travels to the Boundary Heart Continent to replenish the energy of his Sun Tree and Falling Star clones, since the Primordial Universe and Cosmic Sea lack sufficient energy.
• Once the laws’ restrictions are lifted, the Sun Tree expands explosively. Instead of reaching the expected one hundred million kilometers, it grows to an astonishing ten billion kilometers in height, with a crown 1.7 billion kilometers wide and leaves comparable in size to stars.
• Zhang Dong realizes that his Sun Tree has become an unprecedented monster lifeform, vastly exceeding even a Venerable-level World Tree despite being only at the Realm Lord/First Heaven Realm Deity stage.
• Because revealing the Sun Tree and Falling Star would attract the attention of powerful experts who might capture and study him, Zhang Dong hides both inside the divine kingdom of a specially cultivated early King-Level Cloud Vine.
• The Cloud Vine becomes primarily useful for Divine Kingdom Teleportation, allowing Zhang Dong to travel efficiently while keeping his enormous clones concealed.
• Zhang Dong decides not to use the Sun Tree or Falling Star openly until he reaches the Fourth Heaven Realm Deity stage and possesses Mighty Expert-level combat power.
• He begins researching Cosmic Secret Realms as possible destinations for the Life-and-Death Trial, while rejecting the idea of deliberately robbing weaker Peak Marquis or King-Level experts.

Character Developments

• Zhang Dong becomes increasingly pragmatic and ambitious. He now views the Life-and-Death Trial as a means to obtain wealth and resources for long-term cultivation rather than merely fulfilling a company requirement.
• His confidence grows after witnessing the Sun Tree’s transformation, but so does his caution. He understands that his greatest advantages must remain hidden until he is strong enough to protect them.
• Zhang Dong’s Dao heart is emphasized through his refusal to bully or rob weaker opponents purely for profit. He is willing to retaliate against those who provoke him, but not to exploit the weak.
• Dark Marquis Lord shows strong expectations for Zhang Dong, believing his unusual talent and opportunities may allow him to surpass ordinary King-Level experts.
• The Cloud Vine develops a realistic understanding of its role. Although it hoped to accompany Zhang Dong in battle, it recognizes that its main value is now transporting him through Divine Kingdom Teleportation.

Significant Themes

• True strength versus external power: Zhang Dong recognizes that treasures and mechanical boosts can temporarily elevate combat power, but genuine realm advancement and Dao comprehension are what ultimately matter.
• Concealment and survival: The Sun Tree’s terrifying size and potential make it both a powerful asset and a dangerous secret. Zhang Dong must hide his greatest advantages to avoid becoming the target of stronger beings.
• Growth beyond expectations: The Sun Tree’s transformation demonstrates how special bloodlines, transplanted Boundary Heart Continent plants, the Bitter Snow Vine, and the Jade Green Bubble can produce results far beyond conventional limits.

Chapter Summary: “Second-Heaven World God”

Key Plot Points and Events

• In the Virtual Universe, Zhang Dong spends enormous sums purchasing:
  • All twenty kilograms of the human race’s Fermo Venom.

  • High-grade technological weapons such as the Soul-Extinguishing Aurora, black hole weapons, Silent Wind Weapons, and the Mechanical Race’s Decomposition Tower.
• His purchases are intended not only for personal use but also for resale on Boundary Heart Continent, where many of these materials and weapons do not exist.
• Because of the enormous scale of the order, the goods take more than half a year to arrive. Shayue Venerable personally delivers them, reflecting Zhang Dong’s greatly elevated status within the human race.
• After checking the shipment, Zhang Dong returns to Boundary Heart Continent. He discovers that his clone has comprehended a second Divine Heart—the Chaotic Void Divine Heart—and has successfully advanced to the Second-Heaven World God realm.
• Zhang Dong begins planning for future cultivation. Since the Heavenly Mystery Qi Sect’s advanced inheritances require payment after reaching the True Deity realm, he decides he must accumulate Cosmic Crystals in advance to avoid falling into crushing debt.

Key Plot Points and Events

• A spectacular carriage marked with the Fan Clan symbol flies over Xiafeng Capital toward Fan Clan’s Demon Mountain. Its eight flame-wreathed beasts and overwhelming aura demonstrate the clan’s immense power.

• Zhang Dong visits Qu Yu’s treasure shop to sell goods. Qu Yu is surprised that Zhang Dong has advanced to the Second Heaven Realm World God.
• Zhang sells various venoms, including more Fermo Venom. Qu Yu explains that some of the new venoms can be refined into substances capable of killing even True God Sovereigns, making them extremely valuable.
• Qu Yu pays especially high prices for the most potent venoms—up to 1,600 Xiafeng Coins per kilogram—while refusing to buy weaker venoms intended for Domain Lords or Realm Lords.
• Zhang considers venom merely a source of “small money.” His real goal is to sell advanced technological weapons and acquire Cosmic Crystals for future inheritances, believing cultivation inheritances are more valuable than external artifacts.
• Zhang presents a black hole weapon, a jade-green gun capable of collapsing an area into a miniature black hole. Though insufficient against Cosmic Venerables, it could devastate King-level Immortals and easily destroy ordinary deities.
• Qu Yu is impressed because the weapon allows beings of almost any level—even Transcendents—to activate Chaos Hole-like destructive power. He cannot determine its value himself and summons a mysterious expert named Senior Fu.
