Days later, Xu Xing watched the Sword Sect as Gu Wangjun visited with Leng Rou, who warned him about comparing himself to stronger cultivators before he claimed his good looks explained his choices.

• Chi Jiuyu gave Yueling a limited-edition controller, then asked Moon Shadow to let her Life-Bound Sword come out and meet her.

• Sheng Shang led his team toward the laboratory, but he looked up in confusion as the surroundings brightened and seemed to show two suns.

• Xu Xing considered deploying the third batch of Ascension Envoys and expanding the Ascension Plan across the Chaos Sea while tightening the blockade against the Cang Race.
• Xu Xing sensed a transformation taking shape within himself and wondered whether Ascension or Dao Source would be achieved first.

In Task World 4, Qi Ling finished repairing the world and departed, unaware that a dangerous infant was plotting to devour its remaining Void Return cultivators as a thread of power descended upon him.

• Xu Xing connected changes in the Chaos Sea to himself and understood Xuan’s path as establishing the extraordinary before bringing it to an end.
• Xu Xing considered how Gu’s role in defining the ancient, present, and future had shaped time, noting that Gu had already merged with the Past Domain.

At the Sword Sect, Chi Jiuyu and Lin Xuanxuan met Ye Zhiwei’s younger sister, who explained how her sister had become a candidate for World Relief Valley’s Sect Master.

• The Taixuan Immortal Network detected the world will of Task World 4 hiding in an infant and erased it, ending the threat of black lightning over Floating Scenic City.

Ye Zhiwei comprehended the Autumn Scenery sword art and spoke with Chi Jiuyu about her feelings for Zhao Ruoming. Meanwhile, Jieye submitted his new sword art to the Inheritance Hall, and Xiao Yu struggled to earn the last four Ascension Points in Mission World 2.

• Ye Zhiwei entered Autumn Scenery and comprehended the Four Seasons Flowing Form Sword Scripture's Autumn Scenery art.
• Chi Jiuyu advised Ye Zhiwei to learn the Heavenly Net Sword Latitude instead, then heard that Ye Zhiwei had begun to like Zhao Ruoming but was unsure because she was only seventeen.

• Jieye told Xu Xing that Yifeng had revealed Xuan had treated them like members of the Cang Race, while Gu's attitude had been worse.
• Xiao Yu reviewed his work in Mission World 2 and found that he still lacked the four Ascension Points needed to reach his goal.

Gao Wuwang completed the Heart-Severing Pills and used them to sever the recreated humans’ connection to the Dark Side of Consciousness, then settled Mission World 5. Xu Xing reviewed the first batch of Ascension Envoys’ scores and returned to the Sword Ancestor Hall.

• Gao Wuwang sent Heart-Severing Pills to the Newborn Continent and brought sunlight to the land with a star from Truth-Seeking.
• A teenage boy celebrated becoming a Darkness Thief, but a Heart-Severing Pill weakened his power as sunlight awakened his memories and cultivation methods.

• Xu Xing returned to the Sword Ancestor Hall and checked the Big Boss Group while considering how the envoys’ mission reports could help others learn.

After returning from his mission, Zhou Kongming discussed Ascension Points and rewards with Qi Ling, while Chi Jiuyu and Lin Xuanxuan prepared to depart with the third batch of Ascension Envoys. Xu Xing tested his understanding of Dao Source by creating a nascent Sword World, leaving him with a clearer glimpse of what Dao Source meant.

• Zhou Kongming and Qi Ling compared their mission rewards, agreed that he would build a physical foundation for Heng in exchange for a wisp of Flame of Civilization, and proposed sharing exchange lists in their group.
• Gao Wuwang boasted in the group about earning every Ascension Point, and Chen Xuanqing mocked him while Zhou Kongming quietly left the chat.
• Chi Jiuyu gave Lin Xuanxuan high-grade Sword Qi Talismans before Lin Xuanxuan departed for the third batch’s mission.

• Xu Xing created a nascent Sword World with a single thought and concluded that Dao Source meant giving birth to Luo Heaven with a single thought.

Xu Xing reflected on the Dao Source and observed life in the Sword Sect while the Ascension Envoys discussed their mission results and planned to trade rewards. Chi Jiuyu entered her third-batch mission in the Original Truth Realm’s Weapon Realm Macro-Universe, where the Ten Extremes Sword recognized her as its long-awaited Sword Master.

• Xu Xing watched Ye Zhiwei cultivate Creation Foundation Establishment, then left Sword Ancestor Hall while pondering how difficult it would be to wield transcendence without leaving the world behind.
• Gao Wuwang bragged in the Ascension Envoys’ group chat about earning the most Ascension Points, while Zhou Kongming and the others discussed exchanging items from their mission rewards.

• The Ten Extremes Sword shook the Chengwu Realm and declared that it had waited 237 years for Chi Jiuyu, calling her its Sword Master.

Chi Jiuyu’s Life-Bound Sword crushed the Ten Extremes Sword as it tried to recognize her as its master, while Xu Xing sent out the third batch of Ascension Envoys and chatted with the other founders about their prospects. The chapter ended with Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu arriving before Ning Ruo, who asked if they were ready.

• Sword Fiend erupted over the Chengwu Realm, disrupting escape techniques and threatening to collapse the realm as it tried to recognize Chi Jiuyu as its master.
• Chi Jiuyu released her Life-Bound Sword, which overwhelmed and battered the Ten Extremes Sword; the giant turtle saw the clash and pretended to remain asleep.
• Xu Xing finished sending the third batch of Ascension Envoys to their assigned universes, then listened as Du Ruoheng raised issues with the Profound Penetration Supreme Elders.
• Xu Xing chatted with the group about Ascension Platform reports and the new envoys, while Charm Ancestor and Spirit Ancestor argued over their closeness to Sword Venerable and Xu Xing.
• At the Spirit Sound Workshop, Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu appeared before Ning Ruo, and she asked whether they were ready.

Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu traveled beyond the Great Profound Realm to deploy the Immortal Network and search for Yuan, observing many worlds before arriving at the Original Truth Realm. There, Chi Jiuyu tried to subdue a Primordial Weapon, but her spiritual power cracked it.

• Ning Ruo sent Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu beyond the Great Profound Realm using the Immortal Network's Cross-Realm program.

• Chi Jiuyu sent spiritual power into the Primordial Heavy Mirror to stop it from tempting people to sacrifice living beings.
• The Primordial Heavy Mirror screamed as Chi Jiuyu's slaying spiritual power battered it, and a crack appeared across its surface.

Chi Jiuyu repaired the Primordial Heavy Mirror and discovered it contained the Mystic Heavy Water Wonder Scripture, but before she could unravel its secrets, the Sword Lord of Dark Annihilation arrived to claim it. After Chi Jiuyu effortlessly defeated him and left, Imperial Zenith Dao Lord intervened and glimpsed the terrifying sword behind her, which injured him and caused several Time Branches to collapse.

• Chi Jiuyu used Universal Artifact Maintenance Runes to halt the Primordial Heavy Mirror's cracking and found the Mystic Heavy Water Wonder Scripture within it.
• The Sword Lord of Dark Annihilation arrived at Mystic Sea Star to retrieve the primordial weapon, but could not locate it.
• Chi Jiuyu confronted the Sword Lord of Dark Annihilation and nearly killed him with a single probing strike before leaving.
• Imperial Zenith Dao Lord ordered the Sword Lord of Dark Annihilation to return and stop pursuing the matter.
• Imperial Zenith Dao Lord reverse-deduced Chi Jiuyu's origins, glimpsed the Lord of Boundless Slaughter's sword, and suffered an injury that caused several Time Branches to collapse.

Xu Xing watched Imperial Zenith Dao Lord recover from his dangerous attempt to deduce the Slaying Sword Canon, then observed Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu arrive at the Peaceful Realm to deploy the Taixuan Immortal Network. In the Peaceful Realm, Daoist Xuanling prepared to ascend while Taiping Daoist Jiang Lin faced growing pressure from ambitious Profound Penetrations.

• Imperial Zenith Dao Lord noticed that the Original Truth Realm's main timeline was flowing abnormally and wondered whether the change was connected to the Lord of Boundless Slaughter.
