Chapter Summaries

Li Ming let Kong Desheng test Purple Heaven City's Dream Space by making a Soul Tool Long Spear, and Kong Desheng discovered that the city could magnify Core Arrays for inspection and reproduce the effects of flawed designs. The test confirmed that Purple Heaven City's upgraded Fate AI-based system could simulate reality far more accurately than its earlier data-driven system.

• Li Ming granted Kong Desheng temporary permission to manifest materials and tools in the Dream Space.
• Kong Desheng made a Soul Tool Long Spear and engraved an Armor-Piercing Array while Li Ming and the Fate AI observed and recorded the process.
• Li Ming magnified the spear and its Core Array, allowing Kong Desheng to inspect the engraving and spot its flaws.
• Kong Desheng completed the spear, deliberately introduced an error in its Core Array, and tested it against heavy armor; it failed to pierce the armor as expected.
• Li Ming recognized that Kong Desheng was testing the Dream Space and reflected that Purple Heaven City's upgraded Fate AI and Fate Power now produced results closer to reality.

Kong Desheng discovered that Purple Heaven City’s dream space could simulate materials for free soul-engineering practice, and Li Ming revealed that the Personal Cultivation Assistant could also analyze and improve soul-tool engraving. The chapter ended with Kong Desheng reading a detailed critique of his flawed armor-piercing array and realizing every correction was accurate.

• Kong Desheng tested the dream space by engraving and using an armor-piercing array, then concluded it realistically simulated materials and could train soul engineers without consuming resources.
• Kong Desheng recognized that the dream space could help the Sun Moon Empire produce skilled craftsmen and strengthen its military.
• Li Ming explained that the Personal Cultivation Assistant was Purple Heaven City’s main feature and could analyze and improve self-created soul skills.
• Kong Desheng realized that the assistant might also guide soul engineers, and Li Ming confirmed that it could help improve their craft.
• Li Ming displayed Kong Desheng’s flawed array and an analysis of its mistakes, leaving Kong Desheng astonished by how many accurate flaws it identified.

Kong Desheng recognized that Purple Heaven City's Personal Cultivation Assistant could accelerate Soul Tool research, but he feared it would expose the empires’ Core Array blueprints to Li Ming. After Kong Desheng left to consult his emperor, Li Ming checked the Space Station’s lunar mission and began testing the moon for sources of essence.

• Kong Desheng tested the Personal Cultivation Assistant and was impressed by its advice for improving the Armor-Piercing Array.
• Kong Desheng accused Li Ming of using Soul Engineers’ research to obtain their Core Array blueprints, and Li Ming admitted the engineers could choose not to use the assistant but warned that others might use it.
• Kong Desheng asked whether Li Ming could prevent the other empires from seeing their new Soul Tool designs; Li Ming promised the blueprints would remain private, and Kong Desheng left to report the matter to his emperor.
• Li Ming considered using a Milk Bottle, Whale Siphon, and Di Tian’s cells to create a steady supply of Soul Power, and he thought about asking Di Tian for help trading rare metals between continents.
• Li Ming watched the Space Station enter lunar orbit, found no signs of life on either side of the moon, and ordered it to land and examine the environment.
• Li Ming instructed Fate AI to measure the moon’s sun and moon essence and heaven and earth essence using Di Tian’s cells as detection instruments.

Li Ming tested whether Di Tian’s cells could survive on the moon and began building a lunar base of Di Tian Hearts. He then met Di Tian in a dream to learn spatial power, where Di Tian agreed to demonstrate his innate ability.

• Li Ming found that Di Tian’s cells remained resilient in the lunar environment and that cultivation there was only twenty percent less efficient than in the Star Dou Forest.
• Li Ming ordered the Space Station to begin welding a Di Tian Heart on the moon, hoping to eventually build a large network of them.
• Di Tian agreed to honor their wager by introducing Li Ming to the Star Dou Forest’s core soul beasts, and Li Ming reminded him that he had called him for another reason.
• Li Ming asked Di Tian to demonstrate his spatial power so he could learn it, and Di Tian doubted that Li Ming could master the bloodline ability.
• Li Ming brought Di Tian into a vast white dream space, which Di Tian praised before preparing to demonstrate his power.

Di Tian demonstrated how to open spatial passages and pull objects through them, while Li Ming’s Fate AI analyzed the techniques. After the AI completed its model, Li Ming tested spatial power through his martial soul, leaving Di Tian convinced that his attempt would fail once it breached the spatial wall.

• Di Tian punched through space to create a passage, then explained how precise control kept the tunnel stable and directed its endpoint.
• Di Tian opened another passage and demonstrated pulling an apple across space through a small opening.
• Li Ming checked the Fate AI’s calculations and found that it had extracted a model for building and maintaining spatial tunnels.
• Li Ming revealed his martial soul and fired a Scorching Beam infused with spatial power, which began cracking the spatial wall.
• Di Tian assumed Li Ming’s beam would expose him to chaotic spatial turbulence, while recognizing the beam as Auspicious Beast’s power.

Li Ming built a stable spatial passage by copying Di Tian’s spatial technique, proving he could reproduce it in reality. After learning several more applications of spatial power from Di Tian, Li Ming considered studying the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King’s abilities next.

• Li Ming used the rotating Space Station and Scorching Beam to construct a stable spatial passage in the dream, astonishing Di Tian.
• Di Tian insisted Li Ming’s success was only possible because they were in a dream, so Li Ming agreed to test the technique in reality.
• Li Ming opened a spatial passage from the sea to the Star Dou Great Forest, and Di Tian sensed the result from the Life Forbidden Zone.
• Over several days, Li Ming copied Di Tian’s Spatial Folding, Spatial Lock, and Spatial Collapse, while Di Tian grew increasingly frustrated and eventually logged off.
• Li Ming considered using the Fate AI Database to record the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King’s abilities and improve his own techniques.

Li Ming and the Little Three-Eyed Golden Lion perfected Spatial Logistics, allowing goods to pass between the continents and launching a trade that drew interest from major factions. As representatives of the Sun Moon Continent’s Seven Great Empires gathered to ask about Dream Coupons for the Personal Cultivation Assistant, Li Ming left them waiting on his terms.

• The Little Three-Eyed Golden Lion reported that she and Li Ming had developed a stable, energy-efficient spatial passage, and Li Ming named the skill Spatial Logistics.
• Li Ming announced cross-continental barter trade in food and healing medicines for metal ores, charging a ten-percent shipping fee and a twenty-percent tax.
• Ning Fengzhi recognized that Li Ming had solved the transport problem, while Qian Daoliu directed Azure Luan Douluo to pursue Spirit Hall’s share of the trade.
• Representatives of the Seven Great Empires of the Sun Moon Continent gathered at the City Lord's Mansion to ask Li Ming how to obtain Dream Coupons for the Personal Cultivation Assistant.

Li Ming offered the Seven Great Empires access to Purple Heaven City's Personal Cultivation Assistant in exchange for precious metals and auctioned limited entry slots. As the empires formed alliances with major Douluo Continent factions, the first auctions began and bids rose sharply.

• Li Ming agreed to accept metals used for forging Soul Tools as payment and offered one thousand entry slots, auctioned in batches of one hundred.
• The empire representatives agreed to return in three days to bid, and Li Ming later saw them meeting with major Douluo Continent figures, including Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and Azure Luan Douluo.
• Li Ming allowed the empires' partners to attend the auction and expanded the City Lord's Mansion's inner hall.
• The first batch of one hundred slots sold for ten tonnes of refined gold and fifty kilograms of mithril, while the second batch's bidding reached fifteen tonnes of refined iron and five hundred kilograms of mithril.

Li Ming ended the auction for a thousand Purple Heaven City spots, gaining precious metals and drawing the Sun Moon Continent’s Soul Engineers into the city. He redirected their research toward Heat Soul Tools, then began his first attempt at crafting a Storage Ring from a fragile spatial shard.

• Li Ming observed alliances and rivalries during the auction as Douluo Continent’s powers reconsidered Soul Tool technology and negotiated cooperation with Sun Moon Continent empires.
• The auction ended with two weaker empires squeezed out, while the next day a thousand users arrived in Purple Heaven City and Li Ming received valuable metals and materials.
• Li Ming ordered Fate AI to steer Soul Engineers toward developing Heat Soul Tools, hoping to guide their research beyond cold-weapon designs.
• Li Ming began inscribing a Storage Array onto a spatial shard so he could pour molten mithril into it and craft a Storage Ring.

Li Ming crafted his first Storage Ring and ordered Fate AI to investigate using the Space Station’s spatial power directly. A month later, his lunar Di Tian Heart project was underway and his immortal herbs had matured, giving him a path toward large-scale cultivation and greater strength.

• Li Ming used Scorching Beam to engrave a storage array on a spatial shard, then made and tested a one-cubic-meter Storage Ring.
• Li Ming told the Little Three-Eyed Golden Lion to analyze and improve the storage array so the Space Station could harness its spatial power.
• Li Ming explored the moon and discovered that God Realm Laws blocked his Spatial Teleportation above the surface, though the Space Stations could cross the boundary.
• Li Ming established five Di Tian Hearts on the moon, bringing his total to six and increasing daily heartblood production.
• Li Ming found that heartblood culture medium had matured his cultivated immortal herbs, though they were less potent than the originals, and planned to scale up the project.
