• Li Qing took control of the world's fate as the Hall of All Sages' Dao soldiers defeated the Phoenix King's forces.
• One month later, Li Qing's army had unified Parasol Tree Continent, where a Hall of All Sages stood in every city and Phoenix City had been renamed the City of All Sages.
• At a nine-tiered altar, Li Qing declared the founding of a supreme civilization kingdom and submitted a memorial to Heaven to claim the heavenly mandate.

Li Qing used the hopes and despair of the Parasol Tree Continent to create Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, separating the living world from a heavenly realm and the Underworld. With reincarnation established, he turned to the next task: appointing gods to govern the new order.

• Li Qing called on the people of the Parasol Tree Continent to pray as formations across its cities gathered the world's power.
• Li Qing used the continent's essence qi to shape the heavenly realm and Underworld around the living world, establishing 108 cultivation nodes.
• The world's will empowered the Investiture of Gods List, allowing Li Qing to link the Principle of Civilization to the feng shui network.
• Li Qing formed the hopes of living beings into a celestial compass and gathered their despair into a reincarnation vortex beneath the earth.
• The vortex drew in soul fragments and helped create an eighteen-level hell, where sinful souls would suffer before returning to reincarnation.
• After completing Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, Li Qing prepared to use the Investiture of Gods List to appoint gods and yin gods to govern the world.

Li Qing used the Investiture of Gods List to establish the Heavenly Court-Underworld system and appoint gods to govern Heavenly Dao Reincarnation. After discovering the world’s logic and how it could evolve, he resolved to build more such systems and gather their logic to perfect his Principle of Civilization.

• Li Qing invoked the Parasol Tree Continent’s destiny and appointed the gods of the Heavenly Court and Underworld to govern Heavenly Dao Reincarnation.
• The world’s origin and logic flowed into Reincarnation and the Heavenly Dao Compass, selecting cultivators, Dao soldiers, and exceptional dead to become Heavenly Gods and Yin Gods.
• Over seven hundred and thirty gods appeared on the Investiture of Gods List, and Li Qing’s incarnation became the Lord of Civilization and holder of the list.
• Li Qing connected the world’s logic to the projection of the Principle of Civilization seed, allowing Way of Changes to process the information gathered by his true body.
• Li Qing decided to keep creating miniature Heavenly Dao Reincarnations and Heavenly Court-Underworld systems, using their logic and the strength of countless living beings to advance his Principle of Civilization.

Li Qing used the logical information of Parasol Tree Continent to establish a path for strengthening his Principle of Civilization without relying on the Jade Tablet. He reshaped the continent’s heavenly and underworld systems and set its people on a peaceful course of learning and cultivation.

• Li Qing realized that the continent’s logical information was real and undistorted, and planned to use the Investiture of Gods to perfect his Principle of Civilization.
• Li Qing resolved to prolong the war between high- and low-dimensional worlds, unite spacetime Heavenly Dao powerhouses, and secretly take over small worlds.
• Li Qing used the mark between his brows to create the Palaces of Heaven and the Underworld’s courts, assigning Heavenly Gods and Yin Gods to manage the world.
• Li Qing redirected the continent’s vital essence into the logical network and used blessed lands and Spirit Mountain to supplement it, ending outside absorption and abnormal anomalies.
• Li Qing established a society centered on the Hall of All Sages, with schools, cultivation trials, city councils, and service in Heaven or the Underworld for advanced cultivators.
• Li Qing’s institutions spread across the continent in half a month, while the Seventy-Two Sages gathered at the Hall of All Sages’ headquarters after passing their Dao Lineages to their disciples.

Li Qing sent the first seventy-two Void Plan seeds to a second low-dimensional world and established a system for cultivating and selecting future seed groups. As he monitored Parasol Tree Continent and refined his predictions, he saw a possible path to resisting the high-dimensional world’s Investiture of Gods plan.

• Li Qing sent the seventy-two sages and his faith incarnation through the Void Divine Shuttle to spread the Dao in a second world.
• Li Qing planned to expand the Void Plan, protect future seeds from contamination, and create grotto-heavens in the seventy-two Blessed Lands and thirty-six Spirit Mountains.
• Li Qing used the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation to create grotto-heavens that drew vital essence and provided separate cultivation spaces.
• The sages’ disciples established a selection system, with the finest cultivators chosen from the thirty-six grotto-heavens to become future void seeds.
• Li Qing monitored Parasol Tree Continent through a map linked to the Heavenly Dao’s logical network and used the Way of Changes to compare predictions with reality.
• Li Qing concluded that he needed more time and data to correct his simulations and pursue a way to resist the high-dimensional world’s Investiture of Gods plan.

Li Qing planned a nine-step path to unite low-dimensional worlds and challenge the high-dimensional world, ultimately aiming to advance to Final Logic. Meanwhile, the spacetime Heavenly Dao powerhouse Desolate Age learned about the Destruction Mist and decided to gather old allies.

• Li Qing mapped out nine steps, from establishing Three Realms Systems in low-dimensional worlds to waging war on the high-dimensional world and advancing to Final Logic.
• A cultivator named Yellow Crane Daoist approached a low-dimensional world, and Desolate Age used dream logic to question him about his mission and the Destruction Mist.
• Yellow Crane Daoist woke with no memory of the dream and continued his search for anomalies in low-dimensional worlds.
• Desolate Age recognized the Destruction Mist as power from the Annihilation Era and suspected the universe was nearing a major change.
• Desolate Age decided the turmoil might give him a chance to receive the infinite universe's baptism, so he resolved to gather old friends.

Desolate Age met with a figure shrouded in Mist to discuss the Destruction Mist, the Nine Great Rulers’ plans, and the danger spreading through low-dimensional spacetime. Meanwhile, twelve Immortal Realm rulers accelerated their world toward the Nine Provinces Four Regions so they could devour it and seize complete control of its will.

• Desolate Age traveled by meteorite to a world emptied of vital essence and met the figure shrouded in Mist.
• The figure in the Mist explained that Destruction Mist, also called The Indescribable, had appeared in High-Dimensional Spacetime and could eventually threaten all of Low-Dimensional Spacetime.
• Desolate Age and the figure in the Mist discussed the All-Beings Dynasty and suspected the Nine Great Rulers had deliberately let information about it reach them.
• Desolate Age gave the figure in the Mist a Dream Token so they could contact one another through dreams.
• The figure in the Mist watched Desolate Age leave and said the final battle was approaching.
• Purple Radiance proposed that the twelve Immortal Realm rulers spend their world's origin to accelerate its journey and devour the world near the Nine Provinces Four Regions.

A distant world used repeated spacetime traversals to approach the Nine Provinces Four Regions, while the Five Immortals and the Wisdom Logic Anomalies realized the threat might arrive sooner than expected. Li Qing remained unaware of the crisis and focused on his Void Seeds, as the fifth batch of Children of Destiny explored an ocean world.

• Twelve Immortal Realm powerhouses sent their world through a spacetime formation, shortening its distance to the Nine Provinces Four Regions by about one percent at the cost of origin power and damage to the world.
• A malevolent Spacetime Heavenly Dao traveled toward the Nine Provinces Four Regions and planned to devour its life after arriving.
• The Five Immortals detected the approaching world's fluctuations, and Chaos Yin-Yang Dao Lord estimated that its arrival might be accelerated by repeated traversals.
• Sky Ghost, Myriad Spirits, and Dao Thief sensed the danger, while Li Qing remained unaware and attended to his ten batches of Void Seeds.
• The fifth batch of Children of Destiny explored an ocean world inhabited by tribal fish-people whose strongest members had reached only the True Law level.

Li Qing and the seventy-two Children of Destiny spread the Hall of All Sages’ teachings among the fishmen, while the fishmen kings began awakening as Children of Destiny hostile to the outsiders. Li Qing planned to gain the world’s destiny by defeating its Anomalies and fishman champions, then establish the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation Three Realms system.

• Li Changkang reported that Anomalies threatened the fishman world and proposed that the Children of Destiny pose as saviors while building the Hall of All Sages’ influence.
• The Children of Destiny rescued fishmen and spread their titles, while Li Qing studied the fishmen’s totem cultivation and adapted it into a Dao soldier method.
• The Fishman King and several other tribe kings broke through after developing hatred for the outsiders, becoming Children of Destiny who wanted to destroy them.
• Li Qing’s faith incarnation appeared at the Hall of All Sages after one hundred thousand fishmen gathered there and kowtowed to his statue.
• Li Qing ordered the seventy-two Children of Destiny to expand their forces, eliminate the Anomalies in the nine forbidden zones, and prepare to defeat the fishman Child of Destiny.

Li Qing sent Children of Destiny to spread the Hall of All Sages through low-dimensional worlds while piloting the Void Divine Shuttle deeper into the void. In the High-Dimensional Spacetime, Shen Tianji became emperor of the All-Beings Dynasty and ascended to the Immortal Realm in an instant as the world's Child of Destiny.

• Li Qing watched the second group of Children of Destiny reach an ocean world as eight other groups established bases in different low-dimensional worlds.
• Li Qing piloted the Void Divine Shuttle deeper into the void and observed that time flowed faster in the low-dimensional worlds farther down.
• Shen Tianji, a Divine Soul-level three-legged golden crow, performed the ceremony to become emperor of the All-Beings Dynasty.
• Living beings across the High-Dimensional Spacetime were compelled to acclaim Shen Tianji, and their voices empowered his jade seal.
• Heaven's power made Shen Tianji the High-Dimensional World's Child of Destiny and raised him to the Immortal Realm; Li Qing's Flesh Tree and Stone Womb avatars watched in alarm.

Li Qing's incarnations continued spreading the power of The Indescribable and secretly explored the Myriad Dao Immortal Domain for ways to accelerate its spread. He discovered a blessed land that harvested essence from captured low-dimensional worlds and sent a duplicate toward it after noticing a dying person carried into one of those worlds.

• Li Qing's incarnations spread The Indescribable through the Three Thousand Pure Lands and the Endless Cloud Sea as the All-Beings Dynasty used formations and mass purges to contain outbreaks.
• The Stone Womb and Flesh Tree incarnations entered the Myriad Dao Immortal Domain while hiding inside exotic beasts, and the Flesh Tree controlled a tiger demon to scout.
• Li Qing used the tiger demon's projected Eye of Illusion and Reality to locate a sealed blessed land connected to low-dimensional worlds by a colossal tree and vortex.
• Li Qing observed cultivators capture low-dimensional worlds, purge their inhabitants, and place the worlds beneath the tree's roots to harvest vital essence while maintaining a balance.
• A group carried a nearly lifeless person inside a stone statue into a newly captured low-dimensional world and returned without the statue.
• Li Qing created a duplicate with the Great Duplication Spell and sent it toward the blessed land, while the Flesh Tree controlled the tiger demon and searched for another target.

Li Qing deciphered the Greenwood Sect’s formation and discovered a cultivator using worshippers’ faith to transform into a world-bound god. He began placing the Unspeakable Spirit-Calling Diagram in low-dimensional worlds without gods, while his Flesh Tree incarnation investigated other blessed lands and immortal mountains.

• Li Qing used Way of Changes and his replica to reconstruct the Greenwood Sect’s formation without disturbing it.
• His replica entered the blessed land and revealed that the Greenwood Sect was sustained by a divine tree and led by a sect master seeking an opportunity in the All-Beings Dynasty.
• Li Qing infiltrated a low-dimensional world and found people worshipping a statue that absorbed their faith to transform the cultivator inside it.
• The Jade Tablet identified the practice as a Wish Power Divine Path that could let a cultivator become a world’s master and share its lifespan.
• Li Qing planted the Unspeakable Spirit-Calling Diagram in at least nine worlds that had not produced gods, while his Flesh Tree incarnation appeared near five blessed lands and three immortal mountains.

The All-Beings Dynasty suppressed outbreaks of The Indescribable in the Myriad Dao Immortal Domain and searched for those responsible, while Li Qing’s avatar moved on to the Four Wastelands. Through Wang Tong’er, Li Qing continued learning how the dynasty operated as Wang Tong’er and Wang Linger hunted pollutees.

• Officials reported that Destruction Mist had appeared in the Myriad Dao Immortal Domain and asked Shen Tianji to send the dynasty’s forces against it.
• Shen Tianji used the jade imperial seal to unleash the dynasty’s power of order, which destroyed most of the mist in fifteen regions and sealed away its remaining essence.
• The dynasty’s city guards began scanning the Myriad Dao Immortal Domain for suspicious targets, but Li Qing’s avatar had already left for the Four Wastelands.
• Wang Tong’er served as a constable under Wang Linger in the All-Beings Dynasty, and their squad searched the city for pollutees.
• Li Qing used Wang Tong’er’s observations to study the dynasty’s structure, including its social classes and the way its order concealed supernatural power from lowborn slaves.

Li Qing upgraded the Myriad Spirit Mother Eye and prepared to use its child eyes to build an intelligence network in high-dimensional spacetime. His Stone Womb incarnation explored a city in the Ten Thousand Beast Forest and learned that Mount Sumeru might hold a power capable of transforming anomalies.

• Li Qing reforged the Myriad Spirit Mother Eye into a highest-grade Dao artifact, created a trillion Myriad Spirit Child Eyes, and kept a tenth of them.
• The Stone Womb incarnation entered the Ten Thousand Beast Forest cautiously, avoiding its lethal jungle logic by using a replica to bear its effects.
• The replica infiltrated an Anomaly kin city and discovered that twisted flesh connected buried low-dimensional worlds and formed the city's buildings.
• Li Qing found that nothing beneath the city was suitable for creating The Indescribable.
• The replica overheard two Disaster-grade anomalies discussing changes around Mount Sumeru and rumors that anomalies had gained perfected underlying logic there, though almost none who entered had survived.

Li Qing learned that Sumeru Mountain might offer a chance to spread the power of The Indescribable, then sent a weaker duplicate into its strange Mist. There, the duplicate became the Boundless Light Heavenly Emperor, and Li Qing discovered that the emperor’s memories were beginning to overwhelm his own.

• Li Qing questioned converted poor people and learned that Sumeru Mountain lay about three hundred li east of the city and could raise one’s logic level.
• Li Qing reached Sumeru Mountain and found that its gray-white Mist concealed distortions of space and time and blocked the Eye of Illusion and Reality.
• Li Qing sent a weaker duplicate into the Mist with a projection of the Principle of Civilization seed to guide it.
• After walking a few steps uphill, the duplicate found itself in a palace, seated as the Boundless Light Heavenly Emperor while the Myriad Extremes Heavenly King sought an edict to suppress monsters and demons.
• Li Qing recognized that the world’s cultivation system might belong to the past of the Nine Provinces Four Regions universe and be connected to the Annihilation Era.
• Li Qing realized the Light Heavenly Emperor’s memories were steadily consuming his own, threatening to bring the emperor back through his incarnation.

Li Qing used the Jade Tablet to preserve information from Mount Sumeru’s illusions, uncovering the Bright Great Thousand Universe’s history and its destruction by the Supreme Demon. The revelations left him suspecting that his original spacetime and transmigration were part of a larger design, and he resolved to pursue Final Logic to learn the truth.

• Li Qing recorded information about the Bright Heavenly Emperor, learning that the Bright Great Thousand Universe had belonged to the Dream Kingdom and was destroyed after the Supreme Demon rose.
• Li Qing sent Stone Womb incarnation duplicates into Mount Sumeru’s illusions, where one became a mountain god whose memories tried to merge with his spiritual imprint before he collapsed the duplicate.
• Li Qing entered the illusions over a hundred times and used the Jade Tablet to piece together the universe’s history, its Three Realms system, and its destruction by gray-white mist.
• Li Qing realized that Mount Sumeru had been the Bright Universe’s central mountain and a passage to the Heavenly Realm, then questioned how its Three Realms system related to the one in his remembered world.
• Li Qing suspected a hidden force had influenced his original spacetime and transmigration, and decided he would seek Final Logic to uncover the secrets behind it.

Li Qing used the visions in his Way of Changes to infer how the Annihilation Era and the Three Realms system might have shaped the Infinite Universe. As his Stone Womb incarnation explored Mount Sumeri’s ruins, he discovered that their runes transformed his Compendium of World Talismans and caused conceptual logic essence to stir against the information of The Indescribable.

• Li Qing deduced that the Infinite Universe might be a colossal fragment connected to the Dream Kingdom and Longevity Kingdom, and considered why the ruler of the Eternal Heavenly Domain had never established the Three Realms system.
• Li Qing guided his Stone Womb incarnation through Mount Sumeri’s illusion-filled mist to a vast ruined relic.
• Li Qing’s duplicate tested the ruins’ walls and found that their patterns wielded surface-level logic that rebounded impacts.
• Li Qing recognized the patterns as primal runes from the Bright Great Thousand Universe and found that the Compendium of World Talismans had transformed into a more profound system of unitary runes.
• Li Qing’s Principle of Civilization developed a trace of conceptual logic essence, stirring the information of The Indescribable and triggering a startling collision.

Li Qing fused conceptual logic essence with the Principle of Civilization, clarifying his path toward becoming conceptual logic. His duplicate body explored an empty city and found a mysterious skin that nearly compelled him to summon The Indescribable, until the Principle of Civilization freed him.

• Li Qing realized that spreading civilization and absorbing its evolving logic could eventually let him become conceptual logic.
• Li Qing's duplicate body explored a deserted city where Spirit Awareness and supernatural powers could not be used.
• Li Qing searched the empty city for several days before entering a massive, ancient palace at its center.
• Li Qing found a gray-white piece of skin on an altar beneath a mysterious statue and recognized The Indescribable's power on it.
• The skin's voice tried to force Li Qing to call upon it, but the Principle of Civilization dispelled the influence and restored his control.
