• Chen Yuan revealed that he had mastered nearly forty percent of the Illusion Branch and demonstrated Voidification, which Difu praised for its powerful defense.
• Difu offered to issue a special decree for the Yanfeng Guild to support the Virtual Universe if it was harmless, and Chen Yuan deployed a local network using Irel’s avatar as a Base Station.
• Difu entered the Virtual Universe and restored his power to the ultimate God King realm, breaking free of the network’s rules.

Chen Yuan secured Difu’s backing and the Yanfeng Guild’s support to spread the Virtual Universe across the Origin Continent, then secluded himself to study his new inheritances. As the Virtual Universe rapidly attracted cultivators and grew stronger, Irel broke through to become a Void True God.

• Difu agreed to promote the Virtual Universe under his name, warned that second-level God Kings could escape its rules, and promised to shield Chen Yuan from interested experts.

Irel’s breakthrough to Void True God drew attention in the Universe Ocean as the Virtual Universe’s rapid growth accelerated her cultivation. After reviewing his own gains, Chen Yuan decided to visit Difu to ask for the catalog of treasures left by Senior Yuan.

• Dream Demon Ancestor told the gathered True Gods that Irel owned the transforming Miniature Universe and served as the Virtual Universe’s manager.

• Chen Yuan finished reviewing his cultivation gains and judged that his strength could contend with a first-level God King without falling into a disadvantage.
• Chen Yuan decided to visit his master, and Difu was surprised when Chen Yuan asked for the catalog of treasures left by Senior Yuan.

Chen Yuan obtained Difu’s High-Level Resource Catalogue and used Irel and the Virtual Universe Network to locate valuable treasures across the Origin Continent. After harvesting Class One resources, he sent his avatar to gather undiscovered Class Two resources while keeping his true goals concealed.

• Difu explained that Kingdom Lords controlled treasures found within their territories and warned Chen Yuan against breaking the rules, but gave him the catalogue after Chen Yuan insisted.
• Chen Yuan used a Memory Stone to learn about the catalogue’s resources, then destroyed it and planned to locate treasures through the Virtual Universe Network.
• Irel arrived in the Virtual Origin Space, and Chen Yuan tasked her with cataloguing treasure locations and gathering ownerless resources with the Power of Illusion.

• Chen Yuan’s avatar teleported away from the imperial capital to collect Class Two resources, and Difu appeared at the spot shortly afterward.

Difu reflected on Chen Yuan’s unusual teleportation and decided to protect his disciple as he raided the Origin Continent’s treasure lands. He concealed Chen Yuan from causal divination, leaving the young man free to act unless he drew the attention of a Progenitor.

• Difu realized Chen Yuan’s departure ability resembled dimensional teleportation but was fundamentally different, and he looked forward to having his talented disciple as a companion beyond the Source World.
• Difu used causality to locate Chen Yuan and observed him teleporting rapidly across the Origin Continent.
• Difu determined that Chen Yuan’s causal concealment was not strong enough to fool powerful specialists, so he used Heavenly Secret Concealment to hide him further.
• Difu concluded that only an Ultimate Realm causality expert or one of the two Progenitors could now find Chen Yuan, and he resolved to protect his disciple indirectly.

Chen Yuan discovered that Difu had concealed the heavenly secrets around him, allowing him to gather resources without exposing himself. After collecting the currently mature class-two resources and surveying class-three treasure lands, he learned that an Infinite Space token had appeared in Eternal Peace Kingdom and set out to claim it.

• Chen Yuan found the Heavenly Secrets Concealment status on his system panel and realized Difu had shielded him from causal detection.
• With his identity protected, Chen Yuan decided to pursue class-three resources while finishing his collection of more than a thousand mature class-two resources.

• Chen Yuan prepared to resume cultivation while waiting for resources such as the fruits in Zhenlong Valley and Sea Abyss Divine Tree to mature.

• Xuan Zhongjun watched as the blast flattened the mountain forest, then realized Commander An Cheng was regenerating.
• Commander An Cheng reassembled, knelt before Chen Yuan, and thanked him for showing mercy.

Chen Yuan claimed the Infinite Space Token despite Commander An Cheng warning that the Eternal Peace Kingdom would report him to Emperor Lord Fengxing of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom. He entered Infinite Space to test its trials and advantages, then prepared to earn rewards by fighting its native lifeforms.

• Chen Yuan spared Commander An Cheng, claimed the Infinite Space Token, and rejected An Cheng's warning about the consequences of keeping it.
• Commander An Cheng decided to report the incident and hurried back toward the city while Xuan Zhongjun remained stunned.
• Chen Yuan entered Infinite Space, where his consciousness received a body with first-level God King strength and most of his Great Dao powers were sealed.
• Chen Yuan confirmed that he could still use the Soul Great Dao and the Great Dao of the Mind, and considered whether Infinite Space would recognize his unfinished Mind path.
• Chen Yuan chose to pursue Infinite Space's third type of trial by killing its native lifeforms.

Chen Yuan tested his Mind Will against an unclaimed native creature in Infinite Space and discovered that his defenses and attacks were strong enough to kill it. Infinite Space awarded him a vast number of points and then prohibited him from killing any more mind creatures.

• Chen Yuan searched Infinite Space for an unclaimed native creature while avoiding territories guarded by major factions.
• Chen Yuan found an octopus-like creature whose chaotic Will could not corrupt his unusually stable mind.

• Infinite Space awarded Chen Yuan 10 points for the kill and 10,000 and 100,000 points for his new Great Dao and special-grade achievements, then warned that another kill would permanently expel him.

After receiving an exceptional evaluation and 210,100 reward points, Chen Yuan suspected Lord Yuan had noticed his unusual origins. He chose to spend the points on resources and return to seclusion, avoiding inheritances whose requirements he could not yet safely meet.

• Chen Yuan decided to exchange his reward points and leave Infinite Space instead of fighting over territory.
• Chen Yuan examined the Perfect Level inheritance Nine Realms of Extinction but rejected it because its cultivation risk was too great for his current Will.
• Chen Yuan decided to focus on completing his Great Dao data and mastering its branches before exchanging for more inheritances.

Chen Yuan chose inheritances and treasures in Infinite Space to advance his Great Dao comprehension, strengthen his secret-technique creation and temper his Mind Will. After exchanging for a Hunyuan Crystal as an energy anchor, he left Infinite Space and returned to seclusion.

• Chen Yuan bought a Hunyuan Crystal as an anchor for the system's energy and left Infinite Space to resume seclusion.

• Chen Yuan retrieved his expedition gains, including the Heart of Hunyuan, the Great Dao Diagram, the Tower of Destruction, and a Hunyuan Crystal.

• Chen Yuan renamed his system energy unit the Hunyuan Unit, with one unit equal to one Hunyuan Crystal.

• Chen Yuan discovered that the Tower of Destruction’s early levels contained clear Destruction Great Dao sources that inspired him more than Tuyuan’s destruction source had.
• Chen Yuan passed the first five levels and endured the Ultimate Realm Will Branch impact on the sixth.
• Chen Yuan climbed through the seventh and eighth levels and stepped into the ninth, reaching the tower’s summit.

Chen Yuan cultivated on the eighth floor of the Tower of Destruction after finding that the ninth floor’s God Emperor Level killing Will could rapidly temper his Mind Will but still overwhelmed him. During his long seclusion, his Great Dao comprehension and World Lifeform research advanced, and the chapter ended when the Dark Hall notified him that materials from a Perfect Level Chaos Realm creature had arrived.

• Chen Yuan was blasted off the ninth floor by its God Emperor Level Will, but he welcomed the damage as a powerful way to temper his Mind Will and study the destruction origin.
• Chen Yuan settled on the eighth floor to cultivate Calamity of Ashen Extinction and comprehend the destruction origin.
• By the thirty-second era of his seclusion, Chen Yuan’s comprehension of the six branches of destruction had caught up with the Myriad Things Branch, while his Life Great Dao comprehension had also advanced.
• Chen Yuan worked out the union of yin and yang form for World Lifeform but could not study the Trinity Form without materials from a Perfect Level Chaos Realm creature.
• Chen Yuan’s avatar received a message from the Dark Hall of the Yanfeng Guild announcing that the requested creature materials had arrived.

• Chen Yuan collected the silver feather from Marquis Mingyan and returned to the Origin Space to analyze it with the Eye of Origin Beginning and Origin Beginning Brain.
• Chen Yuan gathered the feather’s data, learned about thirty percent of the Trinity Form’s principles, and chose to keep the sample for research rather than sell it.
• As Chen Yuan tried to break down the feather, its true body destroyed it remotely, but Chen Yuan preserved a remnant in the Optimization Space and suspected the attack was a trap.
• Chen Yuan continued studying the recorded data for seventy epochs and fully comprehended the Trinity Form.
• Chen Yuan transformed his fundamental particles into the Trinity Form, completing the change throughout his body.
