Li Qing recognized that his apparent plan had been thwarted but said it was only a smokescreen, then watched as Haoran Sage announced the ban to the assembled gods.

• Li Qing’s replica departed, planning to secretly recruit more mountain gods, earth gods, and river gods over time.

They agreed on a three-step plan to investigate the gods, test the Jade Tablet’s limits, and expose Li Qing’s true body, then began carrying it out.

• The six immortals and three Wisdom Logic Anomalies agreed and began using Heavenly Dao Reincarnation to connect with the mountain gods’, earth gods’, and river gods’ edicts and Dao seeds.

Haoran Sage and the other Immortals discovered no suspicious memories among the gods, so they planted a destruction restriction in every Dao seed. Li Qing began studying the restriction while, elsewhere in the void, Purple God and Demon Spirit prepared to confront an approaching world.

• Haoran Sage and the others searched the gods' memories but found no evidence of Li Qing's scheme.

Meanwhile, a Space-Time Heavenly Dao Level being traced the world’s strange knowledge and hidden developments back to Li Qing.

• The being suspected Li Qing had used the lifespan extracted through his Borrowed Lifespan Technique to help the world acquire its unusual knowledge.

Meanwhile, Li Qing began a Wisdom Crystal collection scheme that his enemies interpreted as a smokescreen, leaving them watching for a chance to locate his true body.

• The mysterious Spacetime Heavenly Dao powerhouse decided to send a clone ahead and attack Li Qing if it found his true body.
• Li Qing concluded that his preparations were complete and sent Divine Body copies to recruit academy disciples to collect sparks of wisdom.
• Li Qing gave Yun Feitian a Wisdom Crystal collection talisman, and Yun Feitian reasoned that the collection was a diversion meant to conceal who was gathering the crystals.
• The Radiant Emperor took over Yun Feitian’s position and planned to track the flow of Wisdom Crystals, while the Underworld Devil Lord also suspected Li Qing was trying to manipulate his enemies.
• The hidden Spacetime Heavenly Dao clone received a talisman through a controlled disciple and decided to monitor the collection to find Li Qing.
• The Haoran Sage and Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord discussed Li Qing’s apparent scheme and doubted that he truly needed Wisdom Crystals.

The Haoran Sage and the emperors believed Li Qing was targeting the two high-dimensional beings, but Li Qing revealed that his real plan was to set random traps and make enemies wear one another down. After agreeing to help build more Immortal-Slaying formations, the Haoran Sage left with Li Qing, while the Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord sought Eternal Night Lifeless Dao Lord's view.

• The Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord proposed pretending to cooperate with Li Qing so they could lure the two high-dimensional beings into his trap.
• The Haoran Sage met Li Qing in a Capital City teahouse and accused him of using an obvious deception.

• Li Qing asked the Haoran Sage for materials and vital essence to build two more Immortal-Slaying formations, and the Haoran Sage agreed to gather them within ten years.
• The Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord appeared before Eternal Night Lifeless Dao Lord and asked what he thought of the matter.

The Eternal Night Lifeless Dao Lord and the Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord suspected that the Haoran Sage had allied with Li Qing and was plotting to eliminate them. They devised a plan to build strength through reincarnation and secretly unite against the Haoran Sage, then the Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord approached Namo Nirvana Light-Dark Buddha to discuss killing him.

• The Eternal Night Lifeless Dao Lord told the Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord that the Haoran Sage had likely been steering events and might be working with Li Qing.
• The two Dao Lords reasoned that Li Qing and the Haoran Sage intended to weaken their rivals and proposed reincarnating avatars to cultivate another path to the Immortal Realm.

• The Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord visited Namo Nirvana Light-Dark Buddha, shared their suspicions, and argued that the Haoran Sage had to die.

Li Qing opened a passage to the Glazed World and led a hundred thousand cultivators into an invasion meant to forge their foundations. As his army entered, the world suppressed their cultivation, and Li Qing began using Civilization Logic to analyze its laws.

• The Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord's projection secured the agreement of Immortal Realm cultivators and Wisdom Logic Anomalies to conspire against the Haoran Sage without alerting Li Qing.

• The Glazed World suppressed the invaders' cultivation, forcing Li Qing down to the Primordial Spirit level as he used Civilization Logic and the Way of Changes to analyze its laws.

Li Qing established a foothold in the invaded world, using an army and formation to create Logic Spacetime and resist the world's lightning. He found that the world's scattered resentments could not grant Heavenly Fate, so he planned to conquer it by force while his agents began infiltrating its regions.
