• The Thunder Progenitor gave Chen Yuan an Illusory Realm Maze containing the items they had purchased in the Dark Sacred Realm.
• Chen Yuan recognized the secret treasure and refined it, then told the two Progenitors he had his own way to make money and instructed them to remain in Origin until he called for them.

• After a thousand days, Chen Yuan checked his energy reserves and saw that they had reached 148 billion Hunyuan Units.

• Chen Yuan used his soul mastery to uncover and erase the false memories implanted in his mind.

After ten days of breakthroughs in his Mind Index and Fusion Daos, his Divine Body advanced to the upper ranks of Half-Hunyuan Lifeforms.
