Qing Jun visited the Blood Blade Divine Emperor, who gave him an Ancient Cultivation manual and the Spirit Awakening Technique to help him seek an inheritance from Lord Cheng Tian.

Zhou Zheng traded an East Green Divine Fruit to Qing Jun for three Nine Realms Flowers, then discussed giving Qing Jun an Ancient Cultivation inheritance.

After his clones failed to stop them, Zhou Zheng contained their self-destruction, and Qing Jun explained the master’s treasure-based cultivation method as the barrier continued to crack.

• Zhou Zheng reached the Border Wasteland Continent and observed the Tongtian Tower, where many True Lords had died and True Lord Xing Chong had obtained his inheritance.

• Demon Blade True Lord attacked Zhou Zheng, but another Ancient Cultivation clone appeared and blocked his blade strike.
• Zhou Zheng unleashed his Eternal Space-Time Domain and battled Demon Blade True Lord, preventing him from chasing the clone carrying the inheritance.

• The True Lords agreed to capture Zhou Zheng's clone, while Zhou Zheng eagerly prepared to fight all seven.

Zhou Zheng returned from the Spiritual Cultivation Universe with Qing Jun, received the Seven-Colored True Condensing Lotus and other treasures, and completed their exchange.

Nearly thirty thousand years later, Qing Jun and Pang Yi became Dominators, prompting the Mother Ancestor Cult to move against the universe’s forces and seize the Chaos Flying Boat.
