Background and Identity
Yi is a mysterious and immensely powerful treasure-refining entity who serves as Shi Fen’s original teacher and the architect of his inheritance. His true identity, origins, species, and location remain unknown. Yi does not personally meet Shi Fen in the known story; instead, he guides him through messages delivered by the Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror and through increasingly demanding inheritance trials. 10 12 37
Yi’s inheritance is centered on the Treasure Refining World, the Image World, the Energy World, and a network of related mirrors. It contains secret patterns, secret-pattern diagrams, treasure-refining tools, Inner Worlds, enormous material stores, advanced technological devices, and cultivation resources that vastly exceed conventional Primordial Universe treasure-refining standards. 12 37 117 127 144

- Continues to use visible but inaccessible rewards, restricted permissions, and special trials to motivate Shi Fen’s advancement. 117 144 236 295
- Shi Fen has speculated that Yi may be connected to an existence such as Yuan because of Yi’s apparent ability to alter destiny, detect exceptional talent, and provide incomprehensibly advanced technology; this remains unconfirmed. 40 59
Role in the Story
Throughout the story, Yi serves as Shi Fen’s primary benefactor and distant guiding mentor. He orchestrates a vast, multi-stage inheritance intended to propel Shi Fen toward exceptional treasure-refining ability, cultivation, combat power, and influence. Rather than directly intervening in Shi Fen’s ordinary life, Yi provides the tools, resources, trials, and incentives that allow Shi Fen to independently build power.
Yi’s inheritance begins with basic secret-pattern study but steadily expands into clone cultivation, law comprehension, organizational development, treasure replication, mass production, and the cultivation of an entire race. Yi’s rewards routinely arrive after Shi Fen completes hidden trials or reaches key milestones, making each stage of the inheritance both an opportunity and a challenge. 12 42 89 117 144 194 295

Relics and Treasures
| Item | Description | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror | A multi-layered treasure containing three Inner Worlds; it grants detection, scanning, recording, and transport functions, and is bound to Shi Fen through blood-based master recognition. | Central to Shi Fen’s growth, the mirror rewards him when he refines higher-level treasures and forms the core of Yi’s inheritance system. Its later functions include talent detection, analysis, database access, and replication within the Image World. 10 40 54 235 295 |
| Energy Orbs (Origin Supreme Treasures) | Ten single-colored, ten-centimeter spheres covered in secret patterns that descend from the ceiling of the Treasure Refining World’s Main Hall. They attach to Shi Fen and require a small blood draw for master recognition. | Equivalent to Supreme Treasures in value and function, they enable direct contemplation of individual Laws and can eventually be used to create Law Eyes. They were activated from a ceiling arrangement containing 340 spheres, with 330 Origin Hearts remaining inaccessible, including a Chaos Law Heart. 117 |
| Treasure Hall World Rings | Three baskets containing a total of 300,000 Extra-large, Large, and Small World Rings stored in the Treasure Hall of the Image World. The rings vary in internal world size and capacity. | This vast cache underlies Shi Fen’s early wealth and resource base. The rings can be integrated into the body and upgraded in quality as Shi Fen’s treasure-refining ability improves. 12 86 |
| Bagua Mirror | A sub-mirror granted by Teacher Yi after Shi Fen completes the Earth Unification hidden trial ahead of schedule. | It expands Shi Fen’s access to Yi’s mirror network and later receives upgraded functions alongside the Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror and Reincarnation Mirror. 116 194 |
| Reincarnation Mirror | The other known sub-mirror of the Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror system, granted after Shi Fen reaches Chaos City in the Initial Universe with the four strongest members of his generation. | Ensures that Shi Fen retains access to his inheritance while in the Initial Universe and contributes to the three mirrors’ upgraded analysis and parsing functions. 194 235 |
| Ten Thousand Clothes | A special defensive treasure supplied when Yi grants the Nine Extremes Soul Clone Technique. It can change into clothing, armor, and other forms through consciousness control. | Its defense scales with the user’s energy level, protecting Shi Fen and his clones while retaining the potential to reach Supreme Treasure level. 42 117 |
| Forging Hammer | A treasure-refining tool within the Treasure Refining World. It can be upgraded through higher-grade energy and materials. | Enables Shi Fen to refine treasures according to Yi’s demanding standards and has the potential to reach Supreme Treasure level. 117 |
| Mining Vehicle | A Treasure Refining World vehicle whose combat and mining performance rises with the grade of Energy Crystal installed. An F23-Type Energy Crystal allows it to reach Yi’s sixth-tier high-level standard. | Demonstrates the scalability of Yi’s creations, as a seemingly ordinary utility vehicle can surpass ordinary G-grade Machine Race spaceships in power. 117 |
| Matter-Energy Reactor | A device that converts war trash and other matter into usable energy for the Treasure Refining World. | It supplies the energy needed for world expansion, production, treasure refining, and Shi Fen’s industrial-scale resource strategy. 86 |

| Sharp Edge Flying Blade | A B-grade Second-Order treasure refined by Shi Fen using Yi’s inheritance after his initial Planetary-level treasure success. | Its completion triggers a further upgrade to the Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror, expanding detection to 100 million kilometers in diameter. 54 80 |
| A9-Grade Fire Energy Laser Gun | A Planetary-level weapon, corresponding to Yi’s Tier 1 Level 9 standard, that Shi Fen mass-produces in batches. | Demonstrates the efficiency of Yi’s Secret Pattern system and triggers the first major expansion of the Eight Trigrams Reincarnation Mirror’s detection range. 53 54 117 |
