Chapter Summaries

Chen Yuan assigned his clones separate cultivation tasks while his true body endured the Star Tower’s willpower assault and listened to Mountain Sitting Guest explain the Origin Soul. After nine months, the Sitting in Oblivion Method was optimized, revealing new abilities and a path to strengthen his willpower, and Chen Yuan began cultivating it.

• Chen Yuan decided to study One Thought Void so he could eventually fuse it with Great Destruction, while assigning the Abyss Whale Clone to cultivate the Eye of Origin Beginning and forge treasures.
• The Abyss Whale Clone took over the Eye of Origin Beginning, and Soul Beast Chen Yuan began deconstructing One Thought Void as the clones pursued separate tasks.
• Chen Yuan estimated that the Star Tower’s escalating willpower assault would intensify over time, while his true body continued listening to Mountain Sitting Guest explain the Origin Soul.
• After nine months, the Sitting in Oblivion Method was optimized, allowing Chen Yuan to merge his will into the Origin Laws and increase his willpower up to peak Void True God level.
• Chen Yuan considered the method’s implications for his law comprehension and future mental cultivation, then extracted its cultivation content and began practicing it.

Chen Yuan cultivated the Sitting in Oblivion Method to strengthen his Will against the Star Tower and showed Mountain Sitting Guest a Supreme Treasure battle suit he had reforged. After explaining Soul Binding’s unusual abilities, Mountain Sitting Guest suggested it might reveal a branch of the Origin Great Dao related to the soul, leaving Chen Yuan to consider whether he could uncover a complete Soul Great Dao.

• Chen Yuan discovered that the Sitting in Oblivion Method let him merge his Will into the laws, but he lacked spare Will to comprehend them while resisting the Star Tower and supporting his clones.

• Chen Yuan showed Mountain Sitting Guest the Heavenly Radiance Battle Suit, which he had reforged into a Supreme Treasure with a hundredfold combat-power amplification.
• Chen Yuan explained that Soul Binding let treasures return with a revived soul, grow alongside their owner, gain soul-related abilities, and pass between clones.
• Mountain Sitting Guest said Soul Binding might be a branch of the Origin Great Dao related to the soul and urged Chen Yuan to study its principles.
• Chen Yuan recalled that the known Origin Great Daos did not include the soul and wondered whether Soul Binding could help him open a complete Soul Great Dao.

Chen Yuan considered whether to pursue the Mind, Soul, and Life Great Daos, then focused on improving his treasure-refining skills while continuing the Star Tower recognition process. After years of instruction, his will reached late Tier 3 and his Eye of Origin Beginning advanced to its second layer, so he prepared to start refining treasures.

• Chen Yuan concluded that he could not yet analyze Soul Binding with his first-layer Eye of Origin Beginning, and Mountain Sitting Guest told him that understanding Origin Great Dao mysteries required a much higher realm.
• Chen Yuan asked Mountain Sitting Guest to teach him advanced treasure refinement, and the teacher agreed on the condition that Chen Yuan would stop other cultivation if his will faltered under the Star Tower's impact.
• Mountain Sitting Guest taught Chen Yuan treasure refinement for eight years, raising his skills from early Tier 9 Level 7 toward Level 8 while Chen Yuan's avatars spent nearly ten thousand years in Origin Beginning Palace.
• When the Star Tower's impact reached middle Tier 3, Chen Yuan revealed that his will had already reached late Tier 3, surprising Mountain Sitting Guest.
• Mountain Sitting Guest urged Chen Yuan to gain practical refining experience, and Chen Yuan decided to begin with Senior Brother Youhou's materials after his Eye of Origin Beginning reached the second layer at 7%.

Chen Yuan used his accelerated training and three forms of perception to refine a black Flight Palace for Youhou, producing a peak eighth-rank Supreme Treasure from limited materials. Mountain Sitting Guest appraised it and declared Chen Yuan a Peak Treasure Refining Master.

• Chen Yuan began refining Youhou’s Flight Palace with the Myriad Transformation Cauldron, using Immortal Divine Power, the Power of Mind, and the Eye of Origin Beginning to perfect each material.
• Chen Yuan spent more than three hundred years combining the materials into a black palace, then inscribed its Secret Patterns for strong defense and high flight speed.
• Chen Yuan moved the completed palace through the Optimization Space and presented it to Mountain Sitting Guest for appraisal.
• Mountain Sitting Guest praised the Flight Palace’s quality, noted a slight flaw in its Secret Patterns, and recognized Chen Yuan as a Peak Treasure Refining Master.

Chen Yuan trained his treasure-refining fundamentals while using the Eye of Origin Beginning to help the system collect data on the Nameless Sword Embryo. Meanwhile, the Monster Race, Machine Race, and Zerg agreed that Chen Yuan had to be eliminated and considered seeking information from Yan Di.

• Mountain Sitting Guest taught Chen Yuan advanced treasure-refining techniques, while Chen Yuan practiced tempering ordinary materials in Origin Beginning Palace.
• Chen Yuan discovered that combining the Eye of Origin Beginning with the system accelerated data collection on the Nameless Sword Embryo outside Origin Beginning Palace, and he resumed collecting while training his Clone.
• Chen Yuan's public achievements drew attention from the Human Race's upper ranks, and intelligence about his strength and inventions reached the Monster Race, Machine Race, and Zerg.
• Dream Demon Ancestor, Demon Ancestor Zhen, the Machine Race's black sphere, and the Zerg Empress agreed that Chen Yuan was a major threat and discussed ways to assassinate him.
• The leaders of the three peak races concluded that Chen Yuan was difficult to reach in Human Race territory and proposed asking Yan Di for information because Chen Yuan was reportedly Mountain Sitting Guest's disciple.

The four Universe Supreme Beings questioned Yan Di about Chen Yuan and learned that Mountain Sitting Guest intended a disciple to inherit the Star Tower. They concluded that Chen Yuan might already be its master and resolved to kill him before he gained control of the tower.

• The Zerg Empress told the other Progenitors that Chen Yuan had developed the Primordial Origin Secret Records, strengthening the Human Race, and they agreed he must die before becoming a Universe Lord.
• The four Progenitors confronted Yan Di, who was recovering after resurrecting some Yan God Race warriors killed on the Outer-Domain Battlefield.
• Yan Di revealed that Mountain Sitting Guest had forged the Star Tower and sought a disciple to inherit it, though its master-recognition requirements were extremely harsh.
• The Zerg Empress connected a report of an Immortal breaking through inside the Star Tower a hundred years earlier with the possibility that Chen Yuan’s reported Universe Overlord status was false.
• The Progenitors concluded that Chen Yuan was likely the Star Tower’s master and insisted he be killed as soon as possible.

Chen Yuan learned that the Alien Race Progenitors had traced his identity through the King Armor and were trying to move the Star Tower, but Mountain Sitting Guest assured him that the ownerless treasure could not be shaken. After Giant Axe rescued the Human Race Kings inside, the Progenitors asked Yan Di to enter the tower and determine whether Chen Yuan was there.

• Mountain Sitting Guest told Chen Yuan that the Machine Progenitor, the Zerg Empress, and the two Demon Ancestors had sealed the Star Tower after Yan Di revealed information about him under pressure.
• Chen Yuan told Mountain Sitting Guest that he was not worried about the Star Tower, and Mountain Sitting Guest confirmed that even four supreme beings could not move it while it was ownerless.
• Chen Yuan met Giant Axe in the Virtual Universe and asked him to rescue the Human Race experts remaining inside the Star Tower.
• Giant Axe arrived outside the tower and negotiated with the four Progenitors, who screened the Human Race Kings and handed them over after confirming Chen Yuan was not among them.
• The Zerg Empress and the other Progenitors concluded that they needed to learn whether Chen Yuan was inside the tower, then persuaded Yan Di to enter and investigate.

Yan Di entered the Star Tower and met Chen Yuan, confirming that he was Mountain Sitting Guest’s third disciple. Chen Yuan demanded and received the Tribulation Armor from Yan Di, then sent a warning through him to the Alien Race Progenitors waiting outside.

• Yan Di entered the Star Tower’s core space, apologized to Mountain Sitting Guest for revealing information about the tower, and met Chen Yuan as his junior brother.
• Yan Di learned that Chen Yuan was still an Immortal completing the Star Tower’s master-recognition process, despite having Peak Overlord strength.
• Chen Yuan told Yan Di to return the Tribulation Armor, and Mountain Sitting Guest confirmed that Chen Yuan was already his disciple despite the unfinished recognition process.
• Yan Di reluctantly handed the Tribulation Armor to Chen Yuan after Mountain Sitting Guest backed him.
• Chen Yuan warned Yan Di not to underestimate him and told him to pass a threat to the Alien Race Progenitors outside the Star Tower.

The four alien supreme beings sealed the Star Tower and agreed to capture Chen Yuan, while he stayed inside to cultivate through its escalating Will assaults. After three hundred years, he completed the recognition ceremony, and the Star Tower began to rise.

• Yan Di told the alien supreme beings that Chen Yuan was inside the Star Tower, and they left Divine Power Avatars to seal the surrounding space.
• Chen Yuan refused to leave the Star Tower before the recognition ceremony ended and continued cultivating under Mountain Sitting Guest's guidance.
• Chen Yuan strengthened his Will, advanced his treasure-refining skills, and developed his clones, including mastering the secret engravings of One Thought Void.
• Chen Yuan began simulated trials to optimize the Azure Firmament Sword and planned to fuse One Thought Void with another secret method.
• Three hundred years later, Chen Yuan completed the Star Tower's recognition ceremony, and the tower trembled as a voice announced, “Star Tower, rise~”

After completing the Star Tower’s recognition ceremony, Chen Yuan revealed how his Will Branch, secret technique, equipment, and Nether Sea Clone had grown, then took control of the Star Tower. He confronted four Alien Race Progenitors and blocked Dream Demon Ancestor’s attack with the tower, leaving the battle underway.

• Chen Yuan faced Dream Demon Ancestor, Demon Ancestor Zhen, the Zerg Empress, and the Machine Progenitor, then used the Star Tower to block Dream Demon Ancestor’s strike without harm.

Chen Yuan demonstrated that his strength and defenses could withstand Dream Demon Ancestor and the other Progenitors, then used One Thought Void and his Triple Domain to suppress her. He prepared to test his newly completed attack on Dream Demon Ancestor, who trusted her formidable Divine Body to endure it.

• Chen Yuan blocked Dream Demon Ancestor's attack with the Star Tower and Heavenly Radiance Battle Suit, shocking her and the other Progenitors.

• Chen Yuan said he would test his newly completed move on Dream Demon Ancestor, who challenged him to break through her Divine Body's defense as he raised the Azure Firmament Sword.

Chen Yuan used his Destruction Sword Domain to injure Dream Demon Ancestor Meng Cha, then trapped Demon Ancestor Zhen in his domain while the other Progenitors recruited Xu Zhen Demon God to help kill him. When the four attacked together, Chen Yuan vanished and left their secret methods striking empty space.

• Chen Yuan unleashed his Destruction Sword Domain and struck Meng Cha, costing her 7% of her divine power before she healed her wound.
• Meng Cha urged the other Progenitors to attack Chen Yuan together, and they launched their full-strength attacks as Chen Yuan evaded them and trapped Zhen Jiao in One Thought Void.
• The Machine Race Father God summoned Xu Zhen Demon God and arranged for Xu Zhen and the Zerg Empress to use soul attacks, himself to attack from the front, and Meng Cha to strike from behind.
• Zhen Jiao emerged from Chen Yuan's domain having lost 9% of his divine power, and the four attackers launched their coordinated assault.
• Chen Yuan laughed that he was done playing and vanished, causing all four supreme beings' secret methods to miss.

After escaping the four Alien Race Progenitors, Chen Yuan returned to Human Race territory with Mountain Sitting Guest and asked him to help retaliate against the Alien Races. Chen Yuan traveled to Machine Race territory, killed Venerable Tianchang for a Shiwu Wings component, and then killed Lord Jixin as the other Machine Race Universe Masters arrived.

• The Alien Race Progenitors realized Chen Yuan had escaped their spatial seals and concluded that his strength and Supreme Treasures made him too dangerous to target directly.
• Chen Yuan told Mountain Sitting Guest that he had upgraded his treasures with his talent, then asked him to continue teaching treasure refining and transport him to Machine Race territory.
• Mountain Sitting Guest brought Chen Yuan deep into Machine Race territory, where Chen Yuan found Venerable Tianchang and killed him to take his Shiwu Wings component.
• Chen Yuan announced that he had come to retaliate against the Machine Race, then erased Lord Jixin's Will with the Primordial Spirit Sword Intent as the other Machine Race Universe Masters arrived.

The Machine Race Father God revealed Chen Yuan’s identity to the other Progenitors, but the Zerg Empress discovered that one of her race’s Universe Masters had also fallen.

• Dream Demon Ancestor and Zhen Jiao hurried back to the Monster Race, while the furious voice of the Monster Race echoed through its holy land.

After the three races abandoned their plans to attack the Human Race, Chen Yuan returned home and delivered the treasures he had refined for Founder of the Giant Axe, Chaos City Lord, Lord of Darkness, and Lord Youhou. He learned Luo Feng had advanced quickly and, after messaging him about his treasure materials, received an eager reply.

• Chen Yuan returned to the Primal Secret Realm, and Mountain Sitting Guest left after arranging an avatar to remain and advise him.

He also explained the tower’s time acceleration and Red Dust Heart Refining method, leaving Luo Feng with two ways to temper his will and a promised reward if he succeeds.

• Chen Yuan revealed the Thousand-Heart Nine-Prison Tower, a top-tier Flight Palace Peak Treasure that could attack an enemy’s will once fully mastered.
