Chapter Summaries

Li Qing’s six incarnations struggled to complete their transformations in the Infinite Dead Abyss as the Supreme Heavenly Lord summoned reinforcements and the five Immortal Kings joined the hunt. Meanwhile, the Supreme Heavenly Lord intercepted the Chaos Pearl near the Boundless Void Region, and a new crisis emerged around the tribulation-crossers in the Unique Universe.

• Jade Ghost General Li Qing and Stone Daoist Li Qing used their Dao-Extinguishing Swords and Li Qing’s power to hold off the pursuing Heavenly Sovereigns while the other four incarnations neared breakthrough.
• The Heavenly Sovereigns accelerated toward Jade Ghost General Li Qing and Stone Daoist Li Qing, forcing Li Qing’s Past Body to calculate that the pair might be caught before help arrived.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord learned that four incarnations were close to attaining the Dao and summoned Infinite Mechanism and Supreme Mechanism reinforcements, while the five Immortal Kings also rushed toward the Infinite Dead Abyss.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord split his incarnation and sent one ahead to the Boundless Void Region to intercept the Chaos Pearl as another pursued it from behind.
• The Chaos Pearl’s escape route neared a dead end, while fourteen experts continued their tribulations in the Unique Universe amid fighting and losses.

As Li Qing’s six avatars fled through the Infinite Dead Abyss, four completed their Infinite Mechanisms and escaped the Immortal Kings’ interception by merging into Jade Ghost General Li Qing. Their combined strike and the arrival of allied forces halted Gray Mist Immortal King, leaving Li Qing’s breakthrough under guard.

• Dao-transmitting perfected experts turned on the fourteen Tribulation Crossing cultivators, triggering battles to seize their Dao Fruits, while Li Qing watched without intervening.
• Sun Qiankun, Wang Riyue, Zhuge Shenji, Bright Heavenly Emperor, and Immortal Spiritual Rhinoceros advanced their cultivation with the Civilization Universe’s support.
• Great Vow Daoist rallied the pursuers as more than two hundred powerful figures raced toward Li Qing’s six avatars in the Infinite Dead Abyss.
• Four avatars completed their Infinite Mechanisms just before the Immortal Kings attacked, then vanished by merging their fundamental consciousnesses into Jade Ghost General Li Qing.
• The four Infinite Mechanisms empowered Jade Ghost General Li Qing’s Dao-Extinguishing Sword strike, while Gray Mist Immortal King attacked him and Gloomy Heavenly Lord.
• Great Vow Daoist, Immortal Buddha Lord, and more than forty allies arrived and formed a defensive net that blocked Gray Mist Immortal King’s attack.

Jade Ghost General Li Qing escaped the encirclement after completing his Infinite Mechanism transformation, then Stone Daoist Li Qing used the power of all six incarnations to grievously wound Star-Extinguishing Heavenly Lord. Pursued by five Immortal Kings, the Infinite Mechanism Network, and two Heavenly Lords, Stone Daoist Li Qing fled into the Infinite Dead Abyss and unleashed a formation that gathered its death qi against them.

• Jade Ghost General Li Qing completed his Infinite Mechanism transformation and connected his fundamental consciousness to Stone Daoist Li Qing, escaping through a gap in the attackers' encirclement.
• Stone Daoist Li Qing combined the power of his six incarnations and their Infinite Mechanisms to counter Star-Extinguishing Heavenly Lord's attack.
• Stone Daoist Li Qing's new sword strike pierced Star-Extinguishing Heavenly Lord's Anti-Infinite Mechanism and destroyed his left arm and shoulder.
• Five Immortal Kings, the Infinite Mechanism Network, Gloomy Heavenly Lord, and other pursuers converged, so Stone Daoist Li Qing fled downward into the Infinite Dead Abyss.
• Stone Daoist Li Qing destroyed hundreds of death qi nodes with Sword Qi, forming a guiding force that gathered the Abyss's death qi against his pursuers.

Li Qing escaped the Infinite Dead Abyss and used his avatars and the Fate Wheel Infinite Mechanism Network to defeat the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s attempt to capture them. With six avatars at the Infinite Mechanism level and control of the Primordial Universe’s Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, Li Qing emerged as a major power, while the awakened presence in the black coffin awaited the fruit of truth.

• The black coffin stirred open slightly, and the mysterious being inside sensed that the fruit of truth was about to appear and that it could finally return.
• Stone Daoist Li Qing detonated the deathly aura to block his pursuers, concealed his presence, and slipped out of the Infinite Dead Abyss as the five Immortal Kings and the mighty ones prepared to intercept him.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord attacked Li Qing’s escaping sword light, but Li Qing’s seven Infinite Mechanisms merged with the Fate Wheel Network and broke through the encirclement.
• Li Qing’s six avatars gathered in the Primordial Universe and joined the Infinite Mechanism Network to its Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, forcing the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s six pursuing avatars to flee.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord recognized that Li Qing’s control of the Primordial Universe made him extremely difficult to kill, while the five Immortal Kings began considering Li Qing’s proposed plans.
• The Great Vow Daoist realized that Li Qing had hidden six avatars among five innate beings and a Netherworld Ghost God, and judged that Li Qing’s true body now had a chance to break through.

The factions prepared to track Li Qing’s true body during its Tribulation Crossing, while the Supreme Heavenly Lord spread his forces through the Primordial Chaos. Li Qing’s Past Body empowered the Chaos Pearl to confront the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s incarnation, drawing the major powers’ attention.

• Daoist Unceasing warned that Li Qing’s mysterious power and independent universe could protect him during the Tribulation Crossing, and Great Vow Daoist urged closer surveillance of the Primordial Chaos.
• Tianyuan Daoist told the gathered Infinite Mechanism great powers that Li Qing’s true body might exploit the Supreme Cataclysm to undergo the Tribulation Crossing, and warned them to notify one another if they detected it.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord ordered the Sacred Domains and Divine Kingdoms to spread through the Primordial Chaos and search for signs of Li Qing’s breakthrough.
• Li Qing’s Past Body poured Heavenly Dao Reincarnation power into the Chaos Pearl, raising its strength as the Fate Wheel network contracted.
• The Chaos Pearl’s superposed-state power charged the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s incarnation, and their collision shook the nearby mechanism networks without immediately shattering the Chaos Pearl’s power.
• Tianyuan Daoist recognized the clash as Li Qing’s mysterious power and urged the others to investigate.

Li Qing projected more power into the Chaos Pearl’s stacked state, which overwhelmed the Supreme Heavenly Lord avatar long enough for a fragment of its power to escape. The Supreme Heavenly Lord sealed the Boundless Void Region, but Li Qing still had the Chaos Pearl and planned to strengthen it by refining the mysterious Flesh Egg.

• The Seven Supremes and Infinite Mechanism figures encircled the battlefield, while the Chaos Pearl’s stacked state jumped across the Boundless Void Region and the Supreme Heavenly Lord avatars pursued it.
• Li Qing’s Past Body projected the power of his six incarnation Dao Fruits and the Fate Wheel into the stacked state, raising its strength to contend with fourteen Infinite Mechanism powerhouses.
• The stacked state and the Forward Supreme Mechanism clashed, exposing and shattering networks across Primordial Chaos and forcing the Infinite Mechanism networks to contract.
• The stacked state gained a slight advantage, letting a fragment of its Radiance escape the Supreme Heavenly Lord avatar’s interception and vanish beyond the Boundless Void Region.
• Li Qing’s other forces withdrew as the Fate Wheel Infinite Mechanism Network collapsed, and the Supreme Heavenly Lord sealed the Boundless Void Region to restrict him.
• Li Qing’s Past Body watched the seal coldly, knowing the Chaos Pearl could form new stacked states if he continued refining the mysterious Flesh Egg.

Li Qing restored the Yin-Yang Treasure Vase and prepared the Chaos Pearl to withstand the Ultimate Mechanism as the Supreme Cataclysm began. He convened the factions and Immortal Kings, warning that they must prevent any Supreme Mechanism from emerging.

• Li Qing transferred the six Dao Fruits and remaining Infinite Mechanism traces to his Future Body, which repaired the Yin-Yang Treasure Vase and planned to strengthen the Chaos Pearl.
• Li Qing's projection in the Boundless Void Region received the Chaos Pearl's stacked state while his Past Body observed the Supreme Cataclysm begin.
• The Infinite powers retreated into a region sheltered by Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, while the seven Supremes sealed the Hazy Domain against the attacking Heavenly Lords and Divine Kingdoms.
• Li Qing's Past Body considered ways to combine the nine Infinite Mechanisms and convened the five Immortal Kings, seven Supreme Mechanisms, and representatives of the factions.
• Li Qing warned the gathered leaders that the Supreme Cataclysm and Era Great Calamity threatened them all, and that anyone who became a Supreme Mechanism would become their common enemy.

Li Qing united the Seven Supremes, Five Immortal Kings, and other experts around a three-step plan to prevent a ninth Supreme Mechanism, cooperate against the Anti-Primordial Chaos, and dismantle the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s foundations. The plan began successfully, while Li Qing turned to preparing for future betrayal and the great destruction.

• Li Qing proposed preventing a ninth Supreme Mechanism, suspending infighting, and weakening the Supreme Heavenly Lord in hopes of capturing his incarnation and finding the limits of his power.
• The factions agreed to move their forces: the Primordial Universe would take over the Hazy Domain, the Unique Universe’s forces would defend the boundary, and the Five Immortal Kings would hunt Anti-Primordial Chaos Heavenly Lords.
• The Primordial Universe formed a vast network over the Hazy Domain, while the Unique Universe and six major powers sent their forces to the boundary and halted the invasion’s advance.
• The Five Immortal Kings stayed hidden as the two universes began cooperating, and Li Qing’s Past Body considered how to handle their future betrayal and the coming great destruction.
• Li Qing’s projection addressed the Infinite Kingdoms and the experts of the Nine Great Alliances in the Second Layer of the Barren Mountain Isolated Space.

Li Qing secured the seven Supremes’ agreement to merge the Primordial Universe and Unique Universe if the three-step plan failed, while his Reversal True God counterpart launched a drastic plan in Anti-Primordial Chaos. The Reversal Sacred Domain was compressed into a treasure pearl containing its Divine Kingdoms and inhabitants.

• Li Qing and the Infinite great powers agreed to unify the two universes and expand Heavenly Dao Reincarnation into Primordial Chaos if the Supreme Heavenly Lord triggered the Great Extinction.
• The Supreme True Demon proposed that Anti-Li Qing attempt to break through to the Reverse Supreme Mechanism and Reverse Ultimate Mechanism while the others merged with the Unique Universe.
• Li Qing informed the seven Supremes of the contingency plan, and Great Vow Daoist agreed on their behalf.
• Li Qing’s Past Body noted that information from Primordial Chaos was arriving too slowly and planned to use the Nine Great Ways of Civilization as bait.
• With the Supreme Heavenly Lord away and Anti-Primordial Chaos left empty, Anti-Li Qing activated the Reversal Myriad Dao Cosmos Realm Formation across the Reversal Sacred Domain.
• The Reversal Sacred Domain shrank into a treasure pearl holding its Sacred Domain, 365 Divine Kingdoms, antfolk, and believers.

Anti-Li Qing harvested resources in Anti-Primordial Chaos to strengthen the Sacred Domain Pearl, while the Supreme Cataclysm’s influence threatened to disrupt his plans. Li Qing’s Past Body and the gathered powers prepared a counteroffensive to lure out and kill the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s forces, then suddenly expand their own ranks.

• Anti-Li Qing completed the Sacred Domain Pearl and used it to raise the Reversal True God’s power and mobility to a Celestial Lord’s level.
• Anti-Li Qing harvested high-energy resources at the border of Anti-Primordial Chaos and used the Anti-Civilization Bell to resist the Supreme Cataclysm’s assault on his reason.
• Anti-Li Qing sent word through the Hazy Domain that he had begun the expansion plan, prompting Li Qing’s Past Body to call for a full-scale offensive.
• Li Qing’s projection proposed luring Celestial Lords and True Gods into the Unique Universe, cutting off their retreat, and having the Seven Supremes and five Immortal Kings hunt them while concealing their alliance.
• Li Qing proposed arranging for over a hundred Infinite Mechanism challengers to break through at once, arguing that the enemy’s reserves had to be met with greater strength as well as attrition.

Li Qing persuaded the Seven Supremes, the Five Immortal Kings, and the Infinite Mechanism great powers to begin a coordinated counterattack, using a mass assault to conceal his attempt to lure out the Supreme Heavenly Lord's incarnation. After the northern defenses were breached by three hundred Divine Kingdoms, Li Qing ordered the forces to trap them while the Five Immortal Kings prepared to enter the battlefield.

• Li Qing convinced the Seven Supremes, the Five Immortal Kings, and more than two hundred Infinite Mechanism great powers to support his plan and began organizing a communication network for the armies.
• Li Qing linked with one hundred thousand Evolution Realm powerhouses and directed the allied forces as the Divine Kingdoms attacked the Hazy Domain.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord concentrated one hundred Heavenly Lords on the northern front, where they broke through the defenses and established three hundred Divine Kingdoms.
• Li Qing told the assembled leaders that the Forward Primordial Chaos border had been weakened and that the Five Immortal Kings were ready to enter the Unique Universe battlefield.
• Li Qing ordered the forces to suppress the Divine Kingdoms elsewhere and join the Seven Supremes and Infinite Mechanism in cutting off the three hundred northern Divine Kingdoms.

The two factions ambushed the hundred Heavenly Monarchs and more than a hundred True Gods, severing the Divine Kingdoms from most of their Anti-Primordial Chaos connection and transporting the survivors into a trap. The Supreme Heavenly Lord’s counterattack forced the battle to spread, but the seven supremes and five Immortal Kings slaughtered many of the captives, and the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s hidden incarnation appeared as the remaining Heavenly Lords faced encirclement.

• The Supreme and Infinite Mechanism Network severed most of the three hundred Divine Kingdoms’ connection to the Anti-Primordial Chaos, destroyed the kingdoms, and transported the surviving Heavenly Monarchs and True Gods away.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord unleashed his Reverse Ultimate Mechanism, pushed back the enemy forces, and expanded his power outward from the Hazy Domain.
• Li Qing’s forces restored their networks to block the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s expansion while a weakened Network in the Unique Universe allowed the captives to escape its frozen space-time.
• Seven supreme incarnations killed seven Heavenly Lords and bound their Anti-Infinite Mechanisms as Dao Fruits.
• The five Immortal Kings arrived, trapped the fleeing captives, and joined the seven supremes in killing more Heavenly Lords and claiming their Dao Fruits.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord noticed the Immortal Kings and revealed his incarnation hidden within half of the Unique Universe.

Li Qing and the allied powers tried to trap the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s incarnation and kill the Hazy Domain’s Heavenly Lords, but the Supreme Heavenly Lord repeatedly broke through their encirclements. The Hazy Domain’s surviving Heavenly Lords escaped and its slain fighters returned as clones, restoring the battlefield to a stalemate.

• The Forward Supreme Mechanism shattered part of the five Immortal Kings’ barrier, allowing the remaining twenty-nine Heavenly Lords to charge out.
• Li Qing ordered the five Immortal Kings, seven Supremes, and Infinite Mechanism fighters to surround the weakened incarnation of the Supreme Heavenly Lord, but it broke through their forming Network blockade.
• Li Qing used the Dao-Extinguishing Sword to kill a Heavenly Lord and seize his Anti-Infinite Mechanism, while Heavenly Dao Reincarnation power delayed the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s strike and let the sword escape.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord’s true body used the Forward Supreme Mechanism to break through a second encirclement, while the Hazy Domain’s golden radiance empowered its surviving Heavenly Lords to escape.
• Eighty-three slain Heavenly Lords reappeared as clones in the Sacred Domains, restoring the Hazy Domain’s battlefield presence and bringing the fighting to a stalemate.
• The five Immortal Kings departed with fifty Dao Fruits, while the seven Supremes and Infinite Mechanism fighters obtained thirty-three Anti-Infinite Mechanism Dao Fruits.

Li Qing turned the Void Heavenly Lord’s Dao Fruit into a Void Divine Shuttle and chose to build a Fusion Supreme Mechanism using the Chaos Pearl. As the shuttle joined Anti-Li Qing, Supreme Heavenly Lord reconsidered his invasion after suffering heavy losses and began seeking a way to destroy the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation system.

• Li Qing erased the Void Heavenly Lord’s consciousness, restored the Dao Fruit’s information, and transformed it into a Void Divine Shuttle.
• Li Qing chose to use the Chaos Pearl as the core of a Fusion Supreme Mechanism, splitting it while his Future Body continued consuming the Flesh Egg.
• The Void Divine Shuttle reached Anti-Li Qing and joined the Reversal True God inside the Sacred Domain Pearl, creating a network of two Anti-Infinite Mechanisms.
• Supreme Heavenly Lord assessed his losses of more than ninety Heavenly Lord Dao Fruits and warned that continued fighting could unite the two universes.
• Supreme Heavenly Lord decided to ease pressure on his enemies and seek a way to destroy the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation system.

The Supreme Heavenly Lord withdrew Anti-Primordial Chaos forces to exploit the Supreme Cataclysm and turn the people of both universes against the controllers of Heavenly Dao Reincarnation. Li Qing and the Great Vow Daoist recognized the threat and organized a merit-and-reward campaign to unite cultivators against their external enemies, while the Five Immortal Kings chose not to interfere.

• The Supreme Heavenly Lord ordered Divine Kingdoms and Sacred Domains to retreat and adopt a defensive posture, easing the war and leaving the two universes in an uneasy calm.
• Li Qing warned the powerhouses that the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s withdrawal likely concealed a plan to destroy Heavenly Dao Reincarnation.
• Li Qing deduced that the Supreme Cataclysm could inflame all beings into a Judgment of All Beings against the reincarnation controllers, giving the Supreme Heavenly Lord a chance to shatter reincarnation.
• The Great Vow Daoist proposed rewarding cultivators for hunting Anti-Primordial Chaos lifeforms and offering advancement opportunities to redirect resentment and motivate people.
• The Five Immortal Kings declined to participate, while the other great powers agreed to fund the campaign and orders for the incentive system spread through both universes.

The Supreme Heavenly Lord used Calamity Qi to exploit the merit-point system and provoke violence across the two universes. Li Qing established surveillance and enforcement squads to suppress those abusing the system, but the Supreme Heavenly Lord resolved to find a way to spark deeper conflicts.

• The Supreme Heavenly Lord recognized that the merit system was channeling desires and easing resentment, then used his incarnation’s fluctuations to stir Calamity Qi and tempt living beings into conflict.
• Huang Yuzi killed his fellow disciple Yuan Xiuzi after Yuan Xiuzi captured Flamebirds, took his resources, and claimed the merit points for the catch.
• Li Qing told the powerful figures that Calamity Qi was driving people to steal mission rewards and warned that the merit system could fail if the violence continued.
• Rahu Divine Venerable urged Li Qing to identify and eliminate the troublemakers, while Tianyuan Daoist said stabilizing the two universes was enough.
• Li Qing ordered constant monitoring and had sects form enforcement squads that arrested offenders, exposed their crimes, and quickly suppressed the abuses.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord acknowledged Li Qing’s countermeasures and decided to provoke deeper conflicts instead.

Li Qing discovered that the Supreme Heavenly Lord was using Calamity Qi to spread resentment among ordinary people and planned to exploit it to remove the controllers of Heavenly Dao Reincarnation. He proposed a three-step program to give everyone a path to advancement and break the trap.

• Li Qing's Past Body detected resentment accumulating among people across both universes and realized it could trigger a judgment against the controllers of Heavenly Dao Reincarnation.
• Li Qing warned the powerful figures that the Supreme Heavenly Lord's scheme could strip them of control and leave reincarnation vulnerable to attack.
• Great Vow Daoist explained that people resented the lack of a quick path to advancement, which seemed impossible to change.
• Li Qing proposed selecting one Dao-transmission powerhouse every ten thousand years to advance, drawing Primordial Chaos matter into the universes, and beginning an age of universal cultivation.
• The powerful figures considered Li Qing's plan and began to see its promise.

Li Qing’s plan spread resentment away by launching universal cultivation and building the Binary Star Structure, while preparing a public attempt to overcome the Infinite Tribulation. The Supreme Heavenly Lord recognized the trap but faced a choice between letting the Forward Primordial Chaos grow stronger and risking capture.

• Li Qing instructed the powerhouses to announce new candidates for the Infinite Mechanism, causing cultivators’ resentment to dissipate.
• The seven supreme beings and other mighty figures built the Binary Star Structure, which drew Primordial Chaos into both universes and supplied them with essence qi.
• The universal cultivation plan spread, and farmers such as Li Er received cultivation methods and supplies as cultivation began across both universes.
• Li Qing announced that Nine Heavens Mystic Thunder True Lord would attempt the Infinite Mechanism, with the powerhouses ready to ambush the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s incarnation.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord called Li Qing’s methods formidable and recognized that the attempt was meant to strengthen the Forward Primordial Chaos.

The Supreme Heavenly Lord abandoned his plan to exploit universal resentment after Li Qing’s cultivation system opened a path for all living beings, then ordered a renewed full-scale offensive. Nine Heavens Mystic Thunder True Lord became a mighty one, while Li Qing’s allies prepared for the growing threat at the Primordial Chaos Boundary.

• The Supreme Heavenly Lord concluded that universal cultivation and the Binary Star Structure had undermined his scheme, and decided to seek another way to create resentment.
• Nine Heavens Mystic Thunder True Lord survived his second trial, condensed a new Infinite Mechanism, and officially became a mighty one with Authorization Authority.
• Li Qing told the gathered powerhouses that the path of advancement was open, most resentment had vanished, and they should remain alert for another Anti-Primordial Chaos invasion.
• The Supreme Heavenly Lord ordered a full-scale offensive, sending Divine Kingdoms and Sacred Domains through the Primordial Chaos Boundary and expanding the Hazy Domain battlefield.
• Li Qing warned his allies that enemy forces were approaching both universes, and Great Vow Daoist said they did not need to send reinforcements because their incarnations held the border, though the Supreme Heavenly Lord’s incarnations remained dangerous.

The Supreme Heavenly Lord spread visions of Forward Primordial Chaos’s destruction to make cultivators fear the future and defect to Anti-Primordial Chaos. With only a month before that fear peaked, Li Qing proposed uniting the two universes into an Ultimate Universe and using Heavenly Dao Reincarnation to transform all Primordial Chaos into their strength.

• The Supreme Heavenly Lord spread a message through Calamity Qi urging cultivators to seek refuge in Anti-Primordial Chaos, and Li Er saw visions of the universe’s destruction.
• Li Qing recognized the influence spreading among cultivators and explained that it would build into a tide of betrayal.
• Great Vow Daoist and Rahu Divine Venerable warned that nearly all ordinary cultivators could be affected within thirty days, while the Anti-Primordial Chaos invasion intensified their fear.
• Tianyuan Daoist said they needed to suppress the invasion and show living beings that victory was possible.
• Li Qing proposed merging the two universes into an Ultimate Universe and using Heavenly Dao Reincarnation to transform all Primordial Chaos into its power.
