Demon God Myriad Eyes twisted the laws within a vast spatial vortex, killing six Spirit Transformation cultivators and trapping Xu Changqing and Kong Fang inside its domain. As the vortex threatened to distort all laws and even time, Xu Changqing and Kong Fang resolved to interrupt it.

• Chu Hong pleaded with Luo Qinghan to break the vortex, but Mo Li offered to try and used the Shadow Law to slip through the Phantom Eyes toward its center.

Mo Li, Luo Qinghan, and Baili Hong weakened Demon God Myriad Eyes' spatial vortex, allowing the trapped survivors to escape. Inside the vortex, Xu Changqing and Kong Fang countered its laws and damaged the vortex, leaving Demon God Myriad Eyes wounded.

As the group began returning, Baili Hong and Jin Buhuan shared what they had gained, while Xu Changqing prepared for his coming battle with Kong Fang.

• Luo Qinghan said the group would leave the Evernight Ruins and proposed that each cultivator take one fruit from the Myriad Dao Spirit Tree before Xu Changqing claimed the tree.

• Xu Changqing revealed the Innate Dragon Embryo and explained that it was the reincarnation of the second Demon Ancestor, the Dragon Ancestor.
• Kong Fang rejoiced at the chance to absorb the dragon embryo's essence, then summoned the Seven-Kill Fan and threatened to kill Xu Changqing and bury the secret in the Evernight Ruins.

Xu Changqing transformed into a thousand-zhang Azure Dragon and overwhelmed Kong Fang in the Evernight Ruins. Kong Fang’s Seven-Colored Demon Light failed to withstand Xu Changqing’s Withered-Blooming Dragon Breath, leaving him badly injured as the assault continued.

• Kong Fang attacked Xu Changqing with the Seven-Kill Fan, but Xu Changqing transformed into a thousand-zhang Azure Dragon whose scales resisted the stripping gale and rapidly healed.
• Kong Fang used the Ancestral Spirit Source to resist the Azure Dragon’s bloodline pressure, but his instincts still made him feel like prey.
• Xu Changqing unleashed his Withered-Blooming Dragon Breath, which transformed the Power of Stillness into life in some places and corroded life and space in others.
• Kong Fang shielded himself with the Seven-Colored Demon Light, but the Creation Force in Xu Changqing’s dragon breath broke through and blasted him backward, draining a third of his Life Force.

Xu Changqing defeated Kong Fang and extracted his Ancestral Spirit Source to hatch the Innate Dragon Embryo into the Torch Dragon. He then extracted the Torch Dragon Bloodline for himself, gaining the Torch Dragon Transformation.

• Xu Changqing summoned the Heaven-and-Earth Furnace and swallowed Kong Fang’s platinum torrent without a ripple.

Xu Changqing refined Kong Fang in the Heaven-and-Earth Furnace and used his Torch Dragon Eye to uncover a hidden stone slab in the depths of the Evernight Ruins. After he took it, the ruins unleashed a torrent of hostile Power of Stillness, and his Torch Dragon Bloodline responded.

• Xu Changqing sealed Kong Fang inside the Heaven-and-Earth Furnace, where the Origin Flame continued refining it despite its powerful regeneration.

As they continued toward the exit, strange footsteps approached, and Xu Changqing saw the mysterious man he had encountered twice before, carrying an extinguished oil lamp.

• Xu Changqing escaped the flood of stillness with the golden-red flames and reached the passage entrance, where Baili Hong and Jin Buhuan were waiting.
• Baili Hong told Xu Changqing that Second Senior Sister had taken Mo Li, Chu Hong, and the others ahead to explore deeper inside.
• Xu Changqing, Baili Hong, and Jin Buhuan caught up with Luo Qinghan’s group and continued through the safe passage toward the exit.

Xu Changqing presented the green lotus from the Evernight Ruins to the Great Dao Venerable, who ordered him to plant it on Jade Balance Star. After Xu Changqing and Luo Qinghan left, the Great Dao Venerable and the Nine Extremes Heavenly King discussed how suspiciously clean the lotus was.

• Xu Changqing revealed the green lotus and agreed to plant it on Jade Balance Star after the Great Dao Venerable warned that it could be dangerous to absorb.

• The Nine Extremes Heavenly King asked the Great Dao Venerable whether he had discovered anything, and they discussed the lotus's lack of traces from the Lord of Creation Dao or the Evernight Ruins.

Great Dao Venerable revealed that he had chosen Xu Changqing to use the Creation Green Lotus and Creation Force to repair the Northern Dipper Star Region’s Temporal Barrier. After mastering the Creation Heavenly Scripture and fusing two cultivation arts into the Withering-Flourishing Longevity Scripture, Xu Changqing prepared to create a new art from his three scriptures.

• Nine Extremes Heavenly King argued that Xu Changqing was trustworthy, and Great Dao Venerable explained that the Temporal Barrier was weakening under the pressure of the Heavenly Dao and Outsider Evil.

• The system spent 180,000 years of Xu Changqing's lifespan analyzing and combining the scriptures.
• Xu Changqing emerged from the deduction with the Origin Dao Heavenly Scripture, which encompassed nine realms from Primordial Heaven's Opening to Ninefold Evolution Returning to Origin.
• Xu Changqing read the scripture's effects, including resistance to laws, fate, and time, and the creation of an eternal world.
• Xu Changqing gained confidence that the Origin Dao Heavenly Scripture had unified his powers and could be continuously deduced.

Xu Changqing reached the fifth realm of the Origin Dao Heavenly Scripture and planted the Creation Green Lotus at Jade Balance Star’s Spirit Vein, where it exposed and destroyed hidden red threads connected to the Red-Clad Lord. Five thousand years later, the Xu Family had grown into a powerful force across the Northern Dipper Immortal Mansion and the wider starfield, divided into four branches but still united under Xu Changqing’s living authority.

• Xu Changqing attained Five Elements Returning to Origin, making the Five-Element Law part of his Origin Dao Cycle and freeing himself from reliance on the outside world.
• Xu Changqing planted the Creation Green Lotus at the convergence of Jade Balance Star’s Spirit Veins, and its Creation Force spread across the planet.

• Over five thousand years, the Xu Family expanded across the Northern Dipper Immortal Mansion and beyond, with Xu He managing the family and growing its spirit-plant business.
• Xu Sui, Xu Mu, and Xu Xiao established the merchant, martial, and collateral branches, which developed distinct roles and occasional friction.
• The four Xu Family branches remained united because Xu Changqing, Xu He, and Xu Ping'an kept their disagreements from becoming a division.
