Daoist Nether Spirit and two other experts found a black hole concealing the final great Tribulation and failed to damage it. As hundreds of powerful figures converged, Li Qing moved the black hole away and headed toward a vast battlefield divided among five alliances.

• Daoist Nether Spirit detected faint fluctuations of the final great Tribulation in the Wild Domain, jumped to their source, and found an enormous black hole.
• Daoist Nether Spirit, Black Fire Demon God, and Limitless Sword Immortal attacked the black hole together, but it absorbed their combined power without a ripple.

• Daoist Nether Spirit recognized Li Qing's use of Infinite Possibilities and led the five hundred pursuers in using Infinite Wish to follow his coordinate jumps.
• Li Qing's Future Body swallowed three universes and hurled them at the pursuers, but Daoist Nether Spirit ordered everyone to bypass them and keep chasing.

• Li Qing's Future Body detected their plan through Civilization Information Essence and used Civilization Infinite Possibilities to return the space around him to Primordial Chaos.

Li Qing’s cosmic vortex black hole escaped the pursuers and landed in the center of a vast cosmic battlefield, where he used four captured universes to shield it from attack. The five hundred pursuers unleashed six combined Daoist arts and destroyed the shielding universes, while Li Qing absorbed the resulting debris and spent a quarter of the mass at the black hole’s core.

Li Qing used Civilization Infinite Possibilities to turn the six great powers’ attacks back on them, then escaped to another battlefield as they prepared to resume the pursuit. Meanwhile, five alliance leaders debated whether to attack the pursuers, seize Li Qing, or secretly help him.

• Li Qing redirected the attacks of the four sides through the black hole, forcing his opponents to defend against their own attacks before he used a random leap to escape.

• Li Qing's Future Body arrived at a new coordinate in a five-trillion-light-year-diameter black hole and swallowed four more universes.

Li Qing's Future Body escaped the Mystic Water Demon God's flood just as the Great Dao transformation reached its fifty-breath limit, completing another stage of his cultivation. He left with eight of the nine great directions complete and planned to spread his Dao across three thousand universes before pursuing the Way of Civilization's Immortal Creation.

Li Qing devised a plan to lure and kill powerful Buddhist cultivators while shifting the battlefield’s middle-tier forces under his command. Meanwhile, Dead Silence, the End Daoist, and the True Nature Daoist entered a universe to seize it, but its lone Dao spreader hid from them.

• Li Qing identified Heavenly Blood Buddha, Lion's Roar Buddha, and Drunken Snow Bodhisattva as targets to obtain missing immortal substances for the Immortal Jade Plaque.

The Origin Universe grew stronger and set its sights on another universe, while Li Qing's Present Body suspected his enemies were monitoring his teachings across the cosmos.

• Dead Silence, True Nature Daoist, and End Daoist persuaded Light Source Daoist to help establish Heavenly Dao Reincarnation and agreed to strengthen their universe by devouring weaker ones.
• Dead Silence used the reincarnation power he controlled to connect a small universe to the Origin Universe and merge their cosmic instincts.
• The Origin Universe expanded to 2.8 trillion light-years, and authority over its Heavenly Dao Reincarnation shifted among its major powers.
• Dead Silence and the other three confronted Li Qing's Past Body in the Heavenly Realm's Council Heavenly Palace, while Light Source Daoist learned about Li Qing's treasures and grew greedy.
• Li Qing's Past Body proposed attacking another 300-billion-light-year universe, and the Origin Universe began leaping toward its next target.
• Li Qing's Present Body realized Dead Silence had acted secretly and suspected Three-Part Daoist and Earth Source Immortal Venerable's Mysterious Unknown avatar were watching suspected followers of his teachings.

Li Qing prepared his projections to spread the Dao while guarding against Infinite Mechanism powerhouses, then arranged a coordinated strike against the Earth Ghost General at Mystic Spirit City. Snowblow Fairy and Blackheart Daoist suppressed him, while Li Qing, controlling Jade Ghost General, waited for the Buddhist Sect to send someone who could restrain Snowblow Fairy.

• Li Qing ordered his projections to use active doubles, isolation spells, and detection runes while expanding the Dao across scattered universes.
• At Mystic Spirit City, Snowblow Fairy arrived to assist Blackheart Daoist against the attacking Earth Ghost General and his Netherworld army.
• Blackheart Daoist engaged Earth Ghost General as Snowblow Fairy sealed the battlefield in a frozen formation, leaving the general heavily suppressed and forcing the army to retreat.
• Li Qing controlled Jade Ghost General from within the retreating army and waited for the Buddhist Sect to send a fighter capable of restraining Snowblow Fairy so she could be killed.

Li Qing's forces drew the seven supremes into shifting troops toward the middle-level battlefields, then used the resulting deployment to spring a trap on Jade Ghost General's battlefield. Divine Fire Daoist killed Lion's Roar Buddha, but Heavenly Blood Buddha arrived and shattered the Ninefire Grand Formation as Drunken Snow Buddha remained in danger.

• Great Vow Daoist warned the other supremes that Li Qing had changed tactics and was trapping their middle-level forces, prompting them to send reinforcements.
• Li Qing deduced that the supremes had taken the bait and watched Lion's Roar Buddha and Drunken Snow Buddha break Snowblow Fairy's formation and rescue Earth Ghost General.
• Divine Fire Daoist trapped Earth Ghost General, Lion's Roar Buddha, and Drunken Snow Buddha in the Nine Fire Divine Array, turning the battle against the Buddhas.
• Ninefire Daoist burned away Lion's Roar Buddha's Great Dao of immortal true nature, killing him.
• Heavenly Blood Buddha arrived, used Heavenly Dao Silver Blood to shatter the Ninefire Grand Formation, and charged toward Drunken Snow Buddha.

• Li Qing’s Divine Body collected a small amount of Heavenly Dao Silver Blood and returned toward Jade Ghost General.
• Snowblow Fairy and Blackheart Daoist, aided by the formation’s power, broke Earth Ghost General’s Great Dao and smashed him to pieces.
• Divine Treasury Buddha admitted defeat and departed with Joyful Great Buddha, while Blackheart Daoist stayed in the border city as the Underworld army formed a defensive formation.

Li Qing completed the collection of immortal substances needed to begin condensing immortal true nature, but delayed the process to avoid drawing the Seven Supremes' attention. As the war in the Unique Universe stalled after the Seven Supremes countered his tactics, Li Qing considered seeking allies in Primordial Chaos.

• The Jade Ghost General absorbed the Heavenly Dao Silver Blood into the immortal jade tablet, completing the set of immortal substances needed to construct immortal true nature.
• Li Qing addressed the Infinite Mechanism experts and said their first attack had inflicted heavy losses on the six major forces.
• Great Vow Daoist warned that Li Qing's concentrated attacks threatened their forces, and First Line Heavenly Secret Unending Daoist proposed using the Eternal Possibility Great Dao Scripture to protect scattered battlefronts.
• The Seven Supremes sent First Line Great Sect experts to establish channels of infinite possibilities, allowing the six major powers to reinforce their battlefield nodes and counter Li Qing's tactics.
• Li Qing concluded that the war would remain at a stalemate until the Supreme Cataclysm and considered forming an alliance with powerful experts in Primordial Chaos.
• More than a century passed, and the war remained deadlocked as the battlefields outside the six main fronts grew quieter.

Jade Ghost General began condensing immortal true nature while Li Qing secretly helped conceal the breakthrough from their enemies. As Blackheart Daoist attacked the Underworld army, Li Qing diverted attention with battles across the universe, and Nine Dragons Daoist came under attack at East Cloud City.

• Jade Ghost General asked Ghost-Devouring General, Yellow Cloud General, and Human Butcher General to protect him while he broke through, and they agreed.
• The Underworld army withdrew a thousand li and formed a defensive array around Jade Ghost General as he began condensing immortal true nature.
• Li Qing's Divine Body merged with the Immortal Jade Tablet inside Jade Ghost General, while Blackheart Daoist attacked the million-strong Underworld army to stop the breakthrough.
• Li Qing's projection directed attacks elsewhere to draw attention away from Jade Ghost General.
• Nine Dragons Daoist was ambushed by two Dao-transmitting powerhouses at East Cloud City, called for aid, and used the First Line Great Sect's power to summon two divine dragons to block their attack.

Li Qing concealed Jade Ghost General’s breakthrough by staging a stalemate across the border while the Seven Supremes’ support plan neutralized the attacks. As the Infinite Mechanism powers faced defeat, Li Qing proposed recruiting allies from beyond the Unique Universe and preparing a decisive strike during the Supreme Cataclysm.

• Blackheart Daoist and two True Demon Kingdom Dao-transmitting experts attacked the Underworld Soldier formation, but a First Line Great Sect expert called down support that strengthened the formation and held them off.
• Li Qing controlled the staged battle’s intensity while condensing immortal truth inside Jade Ghost General, keeping the breakthrough’s true nature hidden.
• Great Vow Daoist told the other six supremes that their support plan had secured a stalemate and that they could wait for the Supreme Cataclysm to weaken the Infinite Kingdoms.
• Primordial Unity Daoist warned that the Infinite Mechanism powers would lose if the battlefield stalemate continued.
• Li Qing separated the Infinite Mechanism powers from their subordinates and proposed recruiting forces from other universes in Primordial Chaos to attack during the Supreme Cataclysm.
• The Infinite Mechanism powers agreed to send avatars into Primordial Chaos and begin forming the allied army.

Li Qing organized an alliance against the Supreme Mechanism while Jade Ghost General broke through and repelled Blackheart Daoist’s assault. After Li Qing’s three bodies reunited, all nine directions of the Way of Civilization formed Great Daos, raising it to its limit.

• Li Qing established the second-layer space as an information relay and outlined plans to unite forces against the major powers and Supreme Mechanisms.
• Jade Ghost General condensed immortal true nature on the fiftieth breath, strengthening the formation until Blackheart Daoist and the two Dao-spreading powerhouses retreated.
• Ghost-Devouring General congratulated Jade Ghost General and said he would soon be appointed the fourth general of the Underworld Soldiers’ army.
• One hundred and seventy-five Infinite Mechanism powerhouse avatars sent potential allies’ information to Li Qing, who investigated them and excluded candidates linked to the six major powers.
• Li Qing’s Present Body merged with Jade Ghost General, bringing his three bodies together and completing all nine Great Daos of the Way of Civilization.
• Li Qing recognized that the nine directions had completed their cycle of Principles and elevated the Way of Civilization to its limit.

Li Qing realized that the core of One-Person Civilization was survival and decided to spread his Dao across countless universes to make it take shape. As he began acting on that plan, All-Heavens Divine Emperor and his allies established a foothold in another universe, while Mysterious Unknown and the Three-Part Daoist arrived at a vast battlefield.

• Li Qing concluded that One-Person Civilization was the Dao of Survival and that he needed to spread his nine Great Daos across three thousand universes before he could form it.
• Li Qing resolved to elevate all nine Great Daos into traces of the Infinite Mechanism and use One-Person Civilization to devour them, neutralizing the Jade Tablet’s influence.
• Li Qing controlled the Civilization Universe as it evaded the Origin Universe, entered a shattered universe, and devoured nearly half its mass.
• All-Heavens Divine Emperor, the Six Great Kingdom Lords, the five Unrecordable Gods and Devils, and the Root of the Indescribable's incarnation forced the Universe Ark into a small universe and began spreading their Great Daos there.
• Mysterious Unknown and the Three-Part Daoist arrived at a battlefield spanning several thousand universes.

Li Qing began spreading a revolt against the gods in the Celestial God Universe, aiming to turn the resentment of mortals and lower gods against the Huang Tian Emperor. His movement quietly gained followers as Huang Tian continued assimilating the universe through Heavenly Dao Reincarnation.

• Li Qing’s projection used villagers to spread the Lord of Civilization’s teachings and promised that all living beings would judge the gods and break free from exploitation.
• Li Qing secretly influenced lower-ranking gods, using their resentment and limited prospects to draw them into the growing opposition.
• The Lord of Civilization’s prophecy spread, and more people prayed for salvation, stirring the universe’s Calamity Qi and karma.
• In the Heavenly Realm, Huang Tian continued merging his Great Dao with Heavenly Dao Reincarnation and had gained control over one-fifth of the universe.

Emperor Huang Tian sensed a growing calamity in the Celestial God Universe and concluded that the Lord of Civilization’s prophecy was helping an outside enemy turn the gods’ accumulated karma against them. He ordered a universe-wide memory cleansing, but Li Qing’s projection had already taken control of the low-ranking gods who would carry it out.

• Emperor Huang Tian searched the Three Realms with Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, while Li Qing’s projection silenced its followers whenever the search reached them and resumed spreading the prophecy afterward.
• Li Qing weighed the risks of expanding his influence across Primordial Chaos and continued spreading the prophecy through the Celestial God Universe.
• Emperor Huang Tian told the upper third-rank gods that the prophecy was an enemy plot to gather karma into a Tribulation and let an outsider enter the universe at full strength.
• The Myriad Abyss Underworld King proposed erasing all living beings’ memories and destroying historical records, and Emperor Huang Tian ordered the plan carried out.
• Li Qing learned of the memory-cleansing order and revealed that his projection had already controlled every Land God, Mountain God, and Water God.
