Chapter Summary: “Spirit Treasure Advancement”

1. Key Plot Points & Events

• Zhang Jian undergoes the fifth Great Destruction Tribulation again—two overlapping tribulations cause an aberration, spawning four Dao Devourers (rule gods of destruction) inside the tribulation-eye space. Each rivals a Second-Turn Dao Venerable and is boosted by the tribulation’s evolved omens.
• He deliberately refrains from using killing moves at first, using the four Dao Devourers to test his cultivation, defenses, and reaction speed. He concludes his Primordial Spirit’s computational power and reaction time far exceed normal Second-Turn Dao Venerables, then annihilates them with a single sword art: the Earth Sovereign Dao-Opening Sword (derived from the Creation Imprint).
• After the tribulation, he senses the Lord of Nine Nethers and Lord of Sheji stepping into the Second-Turn Dao Venerable realm; the Netherworld Judge’s Brush (a mid-grade innate spirit treasure) advances to high-grade with its seventh innate indestructible divine restriction formed.
• Returning to the Immortal Court Heavenly Realm, Zhang Jian announces his departure for a Three Sovereigns Holy Court mission. He orders the sealing of the realm’s gates, establishes an Earthly Net formation (a terrestrial variant of the Heavenly Net), and leaves his strongest Self-Obsession Corpse, the Earth Sovereign Heavenly Emperor, to guard the realm.
• After 36,000 years, a decree arrives from the Three Sovereigns Holy Court. Zhang Jian travels to the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm, reports to the Azure Patrol Hall, and receives a garrison mission: guard a crucial node Heavenly Realm for thirty cosmic cycles. Star Emperor Daoist privately warns him to beware the demon gods of the Six Great Demon Realms.

2. Character Developments

• Zhang Jian: Confirms he is now a supreme powerhouse (Second-Turn Dao Venerable level), but admits his Earth Sovereign true body is not in its ideal state—it is “malnourished” and requires further gestation using heavenly treasures, lotus seeds of the Primal Chaos Azure Lotus, or the foundations of ancient demon gods. He remains pragmatic: uses tribulations for self-verification, prepares his realm’s defenses before leaving, and accepts the risky garrison mission partly to acquire resources.
• Secondary characters: Lord of Nine Nethers and Lord of Sheji both break through to Second-Turn; the Netherworld Judge’s Brush upgrades to a high-grade innate spirit treasure. The women of his household (Qi, Bai, Meng) shift from worry to relief when he reassures them that his issues are fixable. Star Emperor Daoist acts as a mentor-like figure, offering practical mission advice.
