Arc 57The Investiture and the Indescribable
Li Qing seized the Space Gate and prepared to weaken the Spiritual Essence World by manipulating its coming Three Realms system and the Child of Destiny Song Tianda. As the worlds edged toward war, Ashes corrupted Haoran Sage, who severed his link to his other true-spirit half and rejected Ashes's offer of control.
- Li Qing and his allies defeated the Radiant Emperor and Underworld Devil Lord’s attack, captured the Space Gate, and copied its spatial Conceptual Logic Prototype.
- The Five Immortals began building their own Heavenly Dao Reincarnation system, while Li Qing secretly made Song Tianda a Child of Destiny and set him on a path to unite the world.
- The Sun Emperor and Bright Moon surrendered to Li Qing’s side and were appointed Solar Star Lord and Lunar Star Lord, giving Li Qing knowledge of the Spiritual Essence World and its World Void Traversal Technique.
- Li Qing persuaded the immortals to use a staged invasion and a planned world-jump to divert the Spiritual Essence World’s power into the World-Anchoring Chains and weaken it.
- Sun Tzu led Dao Soldiers through the Space Gate, and the Five Immortals, Radiant Emperor, and Underworld Devil Lord drove them back at great cost as enemy forces gathered along the route.
- Song Tianda’s Salvation Army captured a city with Li Qing’s covert help, while Li Qing shaped his reputation as a leader who could predict enemy moves.
- Ashes seized Haoran Sage in the Mist of The Indescribable and corrupted him, but Haoran Sage sealed and removed its mark, severed his link to his other true-spirit half, and rejected Ashes’s offer.
