Chapter Summaries

Key plot points

• Xiao Yang arrives at the Ten Thousand Plants Continent, a vast region divided into outskirts, the Inner Domain, and a core. He chooses to begin in the comparatively less dangerous outskirts before moving toward the richer regions.
• He discovers that the continent’s soil is exceptionally rich in energy and nutrients, making it ideal for growing blueberries. He sends his flame star vine and Heavenly Void Clone to collect it.
• Xiao Yang arranges for the Virtual Universe Company to build specialized excavation machines. A month later, one hundred planet-sized machines are delivered, allowing his Avatar to gather soil on an ongoing basis.
• As he prepares to leave, his detector finds Marquis Chi Mu, a powerful Demon Race Immortal. Xiao Yang approaches deliberately for a direct fight, intending to keep his strength limited and roughly match his opponent. The chapter ends as they attack: Xiao Yang launches a spear technique, while Chi Mu counters with a claw strike.

Character development

• Xiao Yang is practical and resourceful: he recognizes the soil’s agricultural value and quickly devises an efficient way to collect it.
• He also shows confidence and a desire to test himself, choosing a fair head-on battle rather than exploiting his superior detection equipment or full strength.
• Marquis Chi Mu is presented as a seasoned battlefield veteran, accustomed to opponents’ technological advantages and alert to incoming threats.

Significant themes

• Abundance and opportunity: The continent’s resources are so plentiful that treasures valuable to weaker cultivators are often ignored by Immortals.
• Preparation and technology: Xiao Yang combines his own abilities with the Virtual Universe Company’s machinery to turn a discovery into a long-term resource operation.
• Testing oneself through conflict: Xiao Yang deliberately limits his power, treating the encounter as a controlled trial rather than simply seeking an easy victory.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang directs his Heavenly Void Clone and flame star vine to gather soil, then coordinates with his Avatar in Chaos City to acquire excavation machines.
• His encounter with Marquis Chi Mu is direct and confrontational: Xiao Yang announces himself through his attack, and Chi Mu responds with an experienced counterstrike.

Plot points and events

• Xiao Yang’s spear overwhelms Marquis Chi Mu’s claw attack, tearing through his armor and severing his right arm. Chi Mu quickly reattaches it, but each hit drains his Divine Power.
• Xiao Yang continues attacking, apparently refining his spear technique with each exchange. Chi Mu’s strength declines as he loses Divine Power, and he sends a distress signal.
• Believing Xiao Yang is deliberately torturing him, Chi Mu burns his Divine Power, multiplying his strength a thousandfold. His attack blasts Xiao Yang far away, but seems to leave him unharmed.
• Xiao Yang returns with an enhanced spear technique. Chi Mu charges through the attack, seemingly preparing to self-destruct; Xiao Yang teleports ten million kilometers away.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang remains focused on training, adjusting his technique through repeated combat. His apparent composure and resilience conceal his true identity and defenses.
• Marquis Chi Mu shifts from confidence to confusion, then fear and resentment. Unable to explain Xiao Yang’s changing strength or apparent invulnerability, he concludes that Xiao Yang is a sadistic maniac.

Character interactions

• The fight is shaped by a stark misunderstanding: Xiao Yang treats Chi Mu as a training opponent, while Chi Mu interprets his measured attacks as deliberate torment.
• Chi Mu’s distress signal goes unanswered in time, leaving him increasingly desperate and willing to risk everything.

Significant themes

• Misread intentions: Xiao Yang’s training exercises appear cruel to an opponent who cannot understand his motives.
• Hidden power and deception: Xiao Yang’s armor, Flame Star Vine, and aura-simulating Aloe Vera conceal his true nature and make him seem unnaturally invulnerable.
• Escalation and desperation: As Chi Mu weakens, he resorts to burning his power and appears ready to self-destruct.

Plot points and events

• Marquis Chi Mu, unable to stop the divine power in his body, sends out Xiao Yang’s information and offers his savings as a bounty before self-destructing.
• Xiao Yang escapes the blast using Teleportation, returns once it is safe, confirms Chi Mu’s death, and heads toward the Inner Domain. He concludes that ordinary Marquis-level opponents are no longer a serious challenge and wants to test himself against stronger foes.
• News of Chi Mu’s death spreads through the Demon Race’s regional network. Because Xiao Yang can teleport, many assume he may be a Peak King and become wary of him.
• While traveling, Xiao Yang receives a distress alert: a human squad is under attack. He teleports to the battlefield and finds a Zerg Mother Emperor commanding over a million World Lord-level Zerg Warriors.
• Xiao Yang’s spear attack is overwhelmed by the Warriors’ combined strike. The Mother Emperor then presses the attack, supported by two Demon Race Marquis Immortals. The humans explain that the two are her slaves.
• Xiao Yang is surprised—and intrigued—that a World Lord-level Mother Emperor has enslaved Marquis-level experts.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang grows more confident after defeating Chi Mu, and seeks increasingly powerful opponents. He also responds immediately to the human squad’s distress call, showing a willingness to intervene.
• The Zerg Mother Emperor is revealed as an extraordinary talent: despite being only a World Lord, she commands a vast army and has enslaved two Marquis Immortals.
• Marquis Chi Mu makes a final attempt to avenge himself by publicizing Xiao Yang’s identity and placing a bounty on him.

Significant themes

• Escalation of power: Xiao Yang has outgrown ordinary Marquis-level foes, while the Mother Emperor presents a more unusual and formidable challenge.
• Reputation and fear: Chi Mu’s report transforms Xiao Yang into a feared figure among Demon Race forces on the continent.
• Strength through different means: Xiao Yang relies on personal combat power and Teleportation; the Mother Emperor combines massed forces with soul-based enslavement.

Character interactions

• Chi Mu curses Xiao Yang, spreads his information, and dies in a self-destructive blast; Xiao Yang evades it and leaves him behind.
• Demon Race experts discuss the danger Xiao Yang poses and speculate about his rank.
• On the battlefield, Xiao Yang attacks the Mother Emperor, who counters with her Zerg army and enslaved Demon Race Marquis Immortals. The human squad clarifies the situation, prompting Xiao Yang’s interest in his unusual opponent.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang identifies his opponent through the Virtual Universe as Moxiya, a once-in-a-million-eras Zerg Mother Emperor with the potential to become a Venerable.
• He seals the battlefield with Space Lock, preventing reinforcements from teleporting in, and battles Moxiya’s forces. Her Zerg Warriors repeatedly unleash a coordinated attack, while Xiao Yang kills many of them.
• When Moxiya’s attack knocks him away, Xiao Yang drops the Space Lock and teleports behind her. Her soul attack—amplified by a soul-type Supreme Treasure to King-level strength—fails because Xiao Yang has no soul.
• Xiao Yang disables Moxiya without killing her, then uses a level-seven Jianshou Mushroom’s Will Illusion to prevent her from self-destructing. His true body and clone also incapacitate her two Marquis-level enslaved Immortals and take them away.
• Xiao Yang rescues a Human Race Immortal squad and teleports them to safety. Later, a powerful Zerg Mother Emperor arrives at the empty battlefield, confirming Xiao Yang’s concern that the Zerg might pursue him.
• He tells the rescued squad to leave and gives them his title: Source Spear Marquis.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang proves himself resourceful and controlled, relying on preparation, deception, and precise force rather than simply overpowering Moxiya. His capture of such an important Zerg genius also reflects his desire for revenge against the races that targeted him.
• Moxiya is revealed as a major Zerg prodigy with formidable resources and powerful defenses, but her reliance on soul-based abilities leaves her vulnerable to Xiao Yang’s unusual lack of a soul and his non-soul Will Illusion.
• The rescued Human Race squad responds to Xiao Yang with gratitude and trust, accepting his order to leave without resistance.

Significant themes

• Strategy over raw power: Xiao Yang wins by anticipating risks, exploiting openings, and using the right tools at the right moment.
• Hidden identities and intelligence: Virtual Universe records expose Moxiya’s concealed identity and reveal the stakes of capturing her.
• The limits of apparent invulnerability: Moxiya’s Supreme Treasure protects her against soul attacks, but cannot stop a different kind of illusion.
• War and retaliation: Xiao Yang views enslaving a Zerg prodigy as payback for the attacks on him.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang and Moxiya clash through coordinated Zerg attacks, a failed soul strike, and Xiao Yang’s eventual capture of her.
• Moxiya’s two enslaved Marquis Immortals rush to protect her but are incapacitated by Xiao Yang.
• Xiao Yang reassures the Human squad only briefly before prioritizing their escape; they thank him and obey his instructions.
• A second Zerg Mother Emperor arrives after the battle, but Xiao Yang and the others have already departed.

Plot points and events

• Xiao Yang rescues an Immortal squad and leaves without accepting their valuable gifts. He warns them that the Zerg may retaliate because he has captured a high-ranking Mother Emperor.
• The squad realizes he is far more powerful—and likely higher-ranked—than they first assumed. They decide to leave the area and lie low.
• In the Game World, Xiao Yang considers how to enslave Moxiya safely. Her soul-type Supreme Treasure could let her break free and kill herself if he attempts it, so he initially plans to seek help from the Chaos City Lord.
• Remembering that John and Charlie are Farm Town NPCs who may have extraordinary abilities, Xiao Yang visits them to test his theory.
• Charlie claims to be an ordinary person. John likewise describes himself as only strong enough to handle a few adults—but recognizes Moxiya’s treasure and effortlessly removes it from her while she remains alive.
• John offers to reforge the now-ownerless small tower into a soul-type Top-Tier Heavy Treasure, promising it will be ready in three days.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang shows restraint and concern for the rescued squad, then thinks strategically about how to handle Moxiya without triggering her self-destruction. His curiosity about Farm Town’s NPCs leads him to discover John’s remarkable hidden capability.
• The Immortal squad moves from awe and uncertainty to recognizing Xiao Yang as a likely King-level figure. Their leader responds cautiously by ordering a retreat.
• John appears to be an unassuming blacksmith, but his effortless removal of Moxiya’s soul imprint reveals extraordinary artifact-related power. He is confident and proud of his mastery.
• Charlie remains outwardly ordinary and provides no indication of unusual strength.
• Xiao Yang and John quickly establish a cooperative exchange: John solves the immediate obstacle and offers to improve the treasure, while Xiao Yang accepts.

Significant themes

• Hidden power beneath ordinary appearances: Farm Town’s residents may be much more capable than they seem.
• Power and status can be underestimated: The squad struggles to reconcile Xiao Yang’s apparent rank with his overwhelming strength.
• Pragmatism and restraint: Xiao Yang avoids risky methods, protects the squad without seeking payment, and looks for a safer solution before acting on Moxiya.
• The value of specialized skill: John’s artifact expertise proves useful in a way raw combat strength may not.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang discovers that Charlie’s shop buys more than farm-grown crops: Charlie will purchase fruits and plants brought from elsewhere. A Life Fruit earns one Silver Coin, while an ordinary spirit of plants and trees earns ten thousand Copper Coins.
• Xiao Yang decides to stop growing blueberries and instead supply Charlie with large quantities of spirit plants gathered from Earth, arranging for Charlie to visit the farm regularly.
• Back at the villa, Xiao Yang feeds the unconscious Moxiya a Jianshou Mushroom and uses Soul Control Seed, a soul-enslavement technique taught by Primal Ancestor.
• He learns that a Zerg Mother Emperor has ten thousand soul origins. The technique spreads from one origin to all the others, eventually enslaving Moxiya completely.
• Xiao Yang wakes her with music in the audiovisual room. Moxiya greets him as her master and reveals that she has already reported meeting him, carries an Immortal Crystal belonging to her master, the Zerg Star Devourer Lord, and may be missed by the Zerg.
• Xiao Yang assures her the crystal cannot lead her master to his location. Moxiya then realizes her perception and comprehension seem unusually enhanced there.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang becomes more resourceful in using the Game World, finding a low-effort way to earn money through Charlie. He also demonstrates the power and reach of his new soul-control technique.
• Moxiya changes from a captive resisting enslavement into a devoted servant, feeling no resentment toward Xiao Yang. Her apparent increase in comprehension unsettles her, since enslavement is normally expected to diminish it.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang tests Charlie’s buying policy, negotiates a regular supply arrangement, and leaves with a new business plan.
• Xiao Yang uses the Jianshou Mushroom and Soul Control Seed on Moxiya, then wakes her with music.
• Moxiya warns Xiao Yang about her report to the Zerg and the Immortal Crystal; Xiao Yang reassures her that they are safe.

Significant themes

• Power and control: The chapter emphasizes the near-absolute nature of soul enslavement and the danger of having one’s soul controlled.
• Adaptability and opportunity: Xiao Yang turns Earth’s changing environment into a profitable supply source.
• Unexpected consequences: Moxiya’s improved perception suggests that the Game World may affect her in ways that challenge what she knows about soul enslavement.

Key plot points and events

• Moxiya discovers that, despite being soul-enslaved, her law comprehension has improved. The villa’s clearly manifested laws make cultivation easier, and she asks Xiao Yang to let her stay and grow stronger so she can help him.
• Xiao Yang keeps the Game World secret, deciding that only his slaves can safely enter it. He tests whether special crops can further enhance Moxiya’s abilities.
• A Level 5 Pomegranate slightly improves her space-law affinity, but a second one has no effect. Higher-tier crops prove more potent, yet each person can benefit only once from any given crop that improves law affinity. Xiao Yang gives Moxiya a Level 7 Pomegranate but withholds the Level 8 and 9 varieties for now.
• At Star Devourer Hall, Lord Star Devourer learns that Moxiya’s Immortal Crystal can no longer be located. Believing she may have been killed by a powerful human King while pursuing human Immortals, he orders a search and vows to kill the culprit. His teacher, the Universe Master Lord Yan Yan, tells him Moxiya is still alive.

Character developments and interactions

• Moxiya shifts from believing enslavement has ruined her prospects to feeling that she may now have a better chance of becoming a Venerable. Her gratitude and ambition lead her to offer her strength to Xiao Yang.
• Xiao Yang shows growing interest in developing Moxiya’s potential, while remaining highly protective of his secret world. He tests crops methodically and limits access to his strongest resources.
• Lord Star Devourer reacts to Moxiya’s disappearance with fury and murderous resolve. He consults Lord Yan Yan, whose news that Moxiya survives gives him a reason to keep searching.

Significant themes

• Unexpected consequences of enslavement: Though soul enslavement normally damages talent, Moxiya’s circumstances appear to improve her cultivation prospects.
• Knowledge and opportunity: Access to manifested laws and rare crops can dramatically reshape a genius’s potential.
• Secrecy and trust: Xiao Yang restricts access to the Game World, relying on the obedience of his slaves to protect it.
• Powerful bonds and competing loyalties: Moxiya wants to grow stronger for Xiao Yang, while Lord Star Devourer’s attachment to her drives his vengeance.

Key plot points and events

• The Star Devourer Lord realizes that Moxiya is still alive but has been captured—and likely soul-enslaved. She concludes Moxiya can no longer be safely rescued and may have to be killed before becoming an immortal King-level enemy.
• Furious over the loss of her disciple, whom she regards as a daughter, the Star Devourer Lord puts out a bounty across the Extraterrestrial Battlefield: three Supreme Treasures for Xiao Yang’s death, plus large payments for information or a confirmed sighting.
• The bounty draws Marquis- and King-level Immortals to the Ten Thousand Plants Continent, including some Human Race experts. Xiao Yang knows about the hunt but is unconcerned because the battlefield fighter is his soulless Heavenly Void Clone.
• The chapter’s focus shifts to Flame Star Vine, which completes its breakthrough to Immortality. Its unusually powerful cultivation gives it 1,024 main vines, ten times the normal gene level, major amplification abilities, and enough strength to rival a Peak King and briefly resist a Universe Overlord.
• Xiao Yang takes Flame Star Vine to a remote region of space, where it establishes its Divine Kingdom. It then returns to him as concealed armor.
• Back on the Ten Thousand Plants Continent, King Mo Di—a Zerg vassal’s high-tier King—arrives to pursue the bounty. As he flies toward the continent’s center, he senses a nearby spatial ripple.

Character developments and interactions

• Star Devourer Lord: Her strategic concern about the Zerg’s future turns into personal rage. She views Moxiya as a daughter and commits substantial resources to finding Xiao Yang.
• Moxiya: Though absent, her capture and possible enslavement become the source of the bounty and the Lord’s emotional crisis.
• Xiao Yang: He remains confident and even welcomes the influx of opponents, seeing them as opportunities for varied battles. He also takes a sly interest in testing Flame Star Vine against powerful enemies.
• Flame Star Vine: Its Immortal breakthrough transforms it into a formidable combat asset. Xiao Yang guides it through establishing its Divine Kingdom, and it expresses joy at being with him.
• King Mo Di: Motivated by both reward and service to his race, he enters the hunt just as an unexplained spatial event occurs.

Significant themes

• The personal cost of war: The Star Devourer Lord’s fury reflects how political and military losses become deeply personal.
• Loyalty and enslavement: Moxiya’s fate raises the question of whether a captured, soul-enslaved genius can still belong to her former people.
• Risk and confidence: Xiao Yang treats the bounty as an acceptable danger because he can afford to lose the battlefield clone.
• Power through cultivation: Flame Star Vine’s breakthrough showcases the dramatic payoff of rare resources and specialized training.

Plot and key events

• King Mo Di senses someone arriving by Teleportation and tries to flee, uncertain whether the newcomer is an ally or enemy.
• The newcomer is Xiao Yang. He pursues Mo Di by teleporting and traps him with Space Lock.
• Mo Di recognizes Xiao Yang as the Origin Spear King and sends out his location, hoping the bounty on Xiao Yang will draw Zerg reinforcements.
• Xiao Yang, eager to test himself against a King-level Immortal, opens with Spear World. Its power reveals that he has made substantial progress in all Ten Origin Laws.
• Mo Di blocks the attack and is thrown backward, but notices Xiao Yang’s strike seems weaker than expected. He stops retreating and charges back at him, beginning the real fight.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang is confident and eager to measure his strength against a King-level opponent. He prioritizes combat over escape or caution.
• King Mo Di shifts from panic to guarded hope when he recognizes Xiao Yang, reasoning that bounty-seekers or nearby Zerg may intervene. After surviving the first exchange, he becomes aggressive and challenges Xiao Yang directly.
• Their first clash establishes a mutual test: Mo Di discovers the breadth of Xiao Yang’s abilities, while Xiao Yang gets his first chance to fight a King-level Immortal.

Significant themes

• Risk and survival: Mo Di’s initial decision to flee reflects the harsh calculations of battlefield life.
• Reputation and information: Xiao Yang’s bounty and the limited reports of his past victims shape Mo Di’s expectations and strategy.
• Exceptional talent and ambition: Xiao Yang’s command of all Ten Origin Laws defies conventional wisdom that mastering them all is nearly impossible.
• Uncertainty in combat: Mo Di’s surprise at the apparent mismatch between Xiao Yang’s abilities and attack strength leaves the outcome unclear.

Chapter Summary: “Departure”

Key plot points

• Xiao Yang eagerly engages King Mo Di in close combat, pleased to finally face a powerful opponent.
• Mo Di unexpectedly burns his divine power, hoping a surprise boost will let him injure Xiao Yang and seize his three Supreme Treasures.
• Xiao Yang responds with his full strength and is knocked back, but welcomes the pressure: the real fight gives him a chance to refine his secret technique in a way simulations cannot.
• Mo Di realizes Xiao Yang is a King-level Limit expert and regrets provoking him. When he tries to stop burning divine power, Xiao Yang presses the attack, forcing him to keep it burning.
• Mo Di secretly calls for reinforcements and sends Xiao Yang’s location to other bounty hunters. Drawn by the promised Supreme Treasures, powerful fighters—including King-level Limit and Invincible King-level experts—converge on the continent.
• After learning of the approaching enemies from the Human Immortals he previously saved, Xiao Yang decides not to risk being surrounded or exposing Flame Star. He retreats, cancels his Space Lock, and disappears into the void.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang is exhilarated rather than discouraged when Mo Di gains the advantage. He uses the fight as a live test of his developing technique, but recognizes when the danger of a group attack outweighs the training benefits.
• King Mo Di is driven by greed for the three Supreme Treasures. His opportunistic attack turns into panic and regret when he discovers Xiao Yang’s true strength; he is forced to keep burning divine power while secretly seeking help.
• The rescued Human Immortals repay Xiao Yang indirectly by warning him of the incoming fighters, enabling his escape.

Significant themes

• Growth through pressure: Xiao Yang values genuine danger and resistance as essential to improving his technique.
• Greed and miscalculation: The treasures tempt Mo Di into a risky choice that leaves him trapped in a fight he cannot safely end.
• Knowing when to withdraw: Xiao Yang’s desire to train does not override his caution; he leaves to avoid being overwhelmed and protect his plans.
• Power and reputation: Rumors and bounties turn Xiao Yang’s identity and location into magnets for increasingly formidable opponents.

Plot points and events

• Xiao Yang escapes King Mo Di using Space Lock. Mo Di, having lost more than 30% of his divine power—and therefore about half his strength—abandons the bounty hunt and leaves to recover.
• Other powerhouses arrive after the fight. They learn Xiao Yang escaped and that Mo Di is the only survivor with firsthand information about him; some consider buying that information, while the rest avoid fighting.
• Xiao Yang returns to the Game World, intending to refine his soul technique and spear techniques with his original body and Heavenly Void Clone.
• A new foraging event lets him buy a Level-6 permit for twelve hours on the Back Hill. He quickly finds and harvests a Level-7 Wild Ginseng, which can increase a lifeform’s gene level by one hundredfold, up to 1,000-fold.
• Realizing the ginseng may let him surpass the Primordial Universe’s usual hundredfold gene limit before becoming a Universe Master, Xiao Yang stores it safely and prioritizes searching for more. He then spots a plant he recognizes as pokeweed.

Character developments

• King Mo Di regrets taking the job, recognizes the danger of fighting Xiao Yang, and chooses survival and recovery over pursuing the bounty.
• Xiao Yang remains eager to improve: after his battle, he turns to training, but shifts immediately to foraging when he discovers a rare opportunity to advance his gene level.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang and Mo Di’s brief confrontation ends with Xiao Yang escaping and Mo Di badly depleted.
• The arriving powerhouses do not engage one another; instead, they focus on the aftermath and Mo Di’s potential information about Xiao Yang.
• Xiao Yang’s original body and Heavenly Void Clone are set to work on different secret techniques, while nanobots assist his search on the Back Hill.

Significant themes

• The cost of power: Immortals’ divine power is also their life force, so battle losses weaken them and can take vast resources and time to repair.
• Risk and self-preservation: Mo Di’s retreat contrasts with the bounty hunters’ ambitions, underscoring the danger of underestimating Xiao Yang.
• Limits and breakthroughs: The Level-7 ginseng offers a possible way around a fundamental biological restriction, making exploration and rare resources central to Xiao Yang’s progress.

Key plot points and events

• While gathering crops, Xiao Yang identifies Level 7 Pokeweed as highly poisonous: contact can kill anyone below the Immortal level. He carefully digs it up in his Supreme Treasure Battle Armor.
• He finds Level 7 Wild Peanuts, whose pods can produce up to seven long-lived Avatars capable of comprehending laws, and Level 7 Goji Berries, which can grant eligible users an Immortal-level bloodline and raise their Gene Level to 100 times the norm.
• After more than eleven hours of collecting, Xiao Yang has abundant crops and enough to raise both his original body and Heavenly Void Clone to 500 times the norm. Wild Ginseng remains scarce.
• A special alert leads him to an extraordinary Level 8 Wild Ginseng, two levels above his Collection Pass. With only seconds before the event ends, he digs it up intact and is transported back to the Farm.
• The enormous ginseng can increase Gene Level by 300 times the norm, for beings below the 3,000-times threshold. Xiao Yang stores it for later, intending to use it when one of his bodies has reached 1,000 times the norm.
• He begins increasing both bodies’ Gene Levels with Level 6 Wild Ginseng, then realizes his original body’s Blood Luo Power could let it benefit from a single Level 7 Wild Ginseng beyond the usual 100-times limit.

Character development

Xiao Yang’s knowledge of Earth crops helps him quickly assess new finds, but the poisonous pokeweed reminds him to stay cautious. His urgency and care during the final collection show both his resourcefulness and how much he values rare opportunities. He also plans strategically, saving the Level 8 ginseng for a more advantageous moment.

Significant themes

• Preparation and knowledge: Familiarity with crops lets Xiao Yang recognize their uses and dangers.
• Scarcity and opportunity: Common crops are plentiful, while Wild Ginseng—and especially a Level 8 specimen—is rare.
• Strategic growth: Powerful resources are most valuable when used at the right time and on the right body.
• Risk and reward: Xiao Yang must balance careful handling with the event’s strict countdown.

Character interactions

There are no substantial interpersonal exchanges. Xiao Yang acts largely alone, relying on his Optical Computer for alerts and countdowns, and coordinates his plans around his original body and Heavenly Void Clone.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang uses Level 7 wild ginseng and other Farm crops to push his gene level past its previous hundredfold limit, reaching 200-fold. His inner world expands from about 120 million kilometers to 500 million kilometers in diameter, becoming powerful enough to challenge ordinary King-level experts.
• The growth also accelerates the gestation of his Star Gate Vine clone: its remaining development time falls to roughly 20,000 years, or perhaps just 1,000–2,000 years with further help from Farm crops.
• Xiao Yang activates the power of his ten fused Blood Luo Crystals. Rather than multiplying his gene level tenfold, it raises it from 200-fold to around 1,000-fold.
• He begins fusing more crystals, testing whether music in the Manor’s Media Room can help. Music helps him resist the crystals’ killing intent, but does not ease their physical pain.
• Xiao Yang successfully fuses crystals up to the sixty-fourth, but cannot fuse the sixty-fifth because his body—not his willpower—is too weak to withstand it. He believes advancing to Immortal or increasing his gene level may let him try again.
• With 64 additional crystals fused (65 total), his activated Blood Luo Power raises his gene level to about 6,000-fold. He considers whether a full hundred crystals or beast-god blood could take him further.

Character development and interactions

• Xiao Yang remains calm and methodical through severe pain and murderous mental pressure, showing that his willpower is no longer the main obstacle to fusion.
• His experimentation is practical: he tests music’s effects and recognizes that his body’s physical limits are the key constraint.
• He considers approaching the Primal Ancestor for authorization to buy beast-god blood, which offers a way to gain Blood Luo Power without the crystals’ side effects.

Significant themes

• Growth through experimentation: Xiao Yang combines crops, inner-world development, and Blood Luo Crystals to push beyond established limits.
• Power has physical costs: His resolve can overcome pain and killing intent, but his body still imposes a hard ceiling.
• Diminishing returns: More crystals produce progressively smaller gene-level gains, even as Xiao Yang achieves an extraordinary 6,000-fold level.
• Ambition and future potential: His success leaves him focused on how much stronger he might become with additional crystals or beast-god blood.

Key plot points and events

• Xiao Yang meets his teacher, the Primal Ancestor, in the Virtual Universe and asks to exchange for Beast God Blood.
• The Primal Ancestor realizes Xiao Yang has surpassed the hundredfold Gene Level limit. Xiao Yang confirms his Human Main Body is at two hundredfold and that his Blood Luo Power raises it to roughly six thousandfold.
• The Primal Ancestor agrees to send Xiao Yang thirty-five drops of Beast God Blood to his Avatar in Chaos City.
• After the delivery, Xiao Yang begins using the blood. Its first drop merges smoothly with the powerful Blood Luo Power already in his body.

Character developments

• Xiao Yang reveals the extraordinary scale of his progress and shows he is willing to be open with the Primal Ancestor about his abilities and Avatars.
• The Primal Ancestor shifts from surprise to deep confidence in Xiao Yang’s future, believing he may become a Universe Master—and possibly a Strongest Being—as long as he survives.

Character interactions

• Xiao Yang and the Primal Ancestor share tea before discussing Xiao Yang’s battlefield activity and his request.
• The Primal Ancestor offers to have Moxiya enslaved, but Xiao Yang says he has already done so.
• The Primal Ancestor readily grants the Beast God Blood and expresses more concern for Xiao Yang’s safety than for the details of his unusual clone and Avatar abilities.

Significant themes

• Exceptional talent and rule-breaking: Xiao Yang’s growth exceeds the limits normally imposed by the universe.
• Mentorship and protection: The Primal Ancestor’s central concern is keeping his gifted disciple alive.
• Culture and cultivation: Earth’s traditions and tea are spreading through the Human Race, with Enlightenment Tea valued for aiding comprehension.

Key events

• Xiao Yang absorbs all 35 drops of Beast God blood and activates his Blood Luo power. His body transforms, gaining an ancient aura, scales, red markings, and a Beast God image on his chest.
• The power raises his main body’s gene level to 8,000 times and greatly improves his affinity for gold, space, and their fusion law. Because his body is poorly suited to Blood Luo Crystals, however, he cannot reach the perfect gene level through them.
• Xiao Yang gives the remaining Level 7 Wild Ginseng to his Heavenly Void Clone, raising its gene level to 800 times. He also gives Level 6 Wild Ginseng to the Flame Star Vine, bringing it to 100 times—a boost he believes makes him extremely difficult to kill.
• Luo Feng contacts Xiao Yang after returning to Earth. He has collected the World Lord-level Mother Emperor left for him by Hu Yan Bo and wants to discuss something in person.
• At Luo Feng’s family manor, he shows Xiao Yang a strange, unmarked black metal plate found in the garden. Xiao Yang recognizes it as a fragment of the Heavenly Soul Crystal containing the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang continues planning his growth strategically, choosing to strengthen his clone rather than spend the remaining ginseng for a relatively small increase to his main body.
• Luo Feng has advanced to Domain Lord, become a personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord, and returned to Earth to spend time with his family and collect the Mother Emperor. Unlike Xiao Yang, he has family ties that shape his decisions.
• The two meet first in the Virtual Universe, then in person at Luo Feng’s manor. Xiao Yang quickly realizes the significance of Luo Feng’s discovery, though he does not yet reveal what he recognizes.

Significant themes

• Strategic cultivation: Xiao Yang weighs how best to distribute rare resources among his different bodies.
• Power and limitations: His extraordinary strength is balanced by the main body’s limited compatibility with Blood Luo Crystals.
• Family and personal priorities: Luo Feng’s choices reflect his responsibilities and attachment to Earth.
• Hidden legacies: The mysterious plate hints that the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual—and its connection to Earth’s powerful past—has resurfaced.

Key plot points and events

• Luo Feng asks Xiao Yang what to do with a Black Metal Plate he found on Earth. Its unexplained appearance suggests a connection to the powerful being who created Earth—and possibly a deliberate opportunity, though it could be dangerous.
• Deciding to investigate, Luo Feng enters his cultivation chamber while Xiao Yang keeps watch. He channels his Psychic Power into the plate and breaks through more than ten thousand nested illusions to reach its core.
• The core contains over thirty thousand characters in the Yan God Race’s script. Xiao Yang identifies the writing and explains that the Yan God Race was also created by Earth’s mysterious maker.
• Luo Feng learns the script and discovers that the plate contains the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, a technique that can raise Gene Level in defiance of the Universe’s operating rules.
• Luo Feng offers the plate to Xiao Yang, but Xiao Yang’s World Power reveals nothing. The manual can apparently be perceived by Luo Feng alone.

Character developments

• Luo Feng moves from uncertainty to decisive action. The ordeal leaves him shaken, but learning that the manual may be an extraordinary inheritance excites him. He also takes Xiao Yang’s encouragement to heart and vows to catch up with him.
• Xiao Yang serves as Luo Feng’s calm adviser and protector. Though the manual could benefit him, he accepts that he cannot access it and remains confident in his own path to improving his Gene Level.

Character interactions

• Luo Feng seeks Xiao Yang’s judgment and asks him to guard him during the test.
• Xiao Yang explains what the plate’s script and origins suggest, while cautioning that it may be dangerous.
• Luo Feng is surprised when Xiao Yang suggests the plate’s creator may be grooming him as a disciple. He thinks Xiao Yang would be the more obvious choice, but Xiao Yang urges him not to underestimate himself.
• Their friendly rivalry surfaces: Luo Feng promises to catch up, and Xiao Yang replies that he will not wait for him.

Significant themes

• Fate and chosen opportunity: The plate’s presence on a heavily monitored Earth suggests it may have been deliberately left for Luo Feng.
• Trust alongside uncertainty: Xiao Yang supports Luo Feng without pretending to know whether the inheritance is safe.
• Ambition and friendship: Their rivalry motivates Luo Feng while their mutual trust remains strong.
• The limits of power and rules: The manual promises growth that violates the Universe’s laws, yet access to it appears uniquely restricted to Luo Feng.

Plot points and events

• Luo Feng receives the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual on a black metal plate and can read it, but Xiao Yang cannot. Luo Feng tries to pass it on by speaking, writing, and using Origin Force, but the universe’s Supreme Rules prevent every attempt.
• Xiao Yang accepts the restriction and decides not to seek another way to obtain the manual yet, partly to avoid attracting the attention of Sitting Mountain Guest.
• After increasing his Gene Level to eight hundred times the norm, Xiao Yang returns to the Ten Thousand Plants Continent to train through combat. Over several years, he refines his secret techniques and advances his Law Comprehension to roughly the nineteenth Celestial Bridge level.
• Back in the Game World, Xiao Yang and his many clones cultivate the profound aspects of Space Lock and Time Acceleration. He masters both, then uses simulated battles and constant Enlightenment Tea Leaves to incorporate them into his techniques.
• After a little over thirty years, he has refined his techniques and is close to mastering the remaining four profound aspects of the Time and Space Origin Laws. He prepares to return to the battlefield and test his progress.

Character developments and interactions

• Luo Feng wants to repay Xiao Yang for his past help, but is frustrated that he cannot share the manual. Xiao Yang reassures him and does not hold the failure against him.
• Xiao Yang grows far stronger through both combat and cultivation. His heightened Gene Level also accelerates his Law Comprehension, and he becomes more deliberate about avoiding attention from powerful figures.
• On the battlefield, hostile Peak Kings test Xiao Yang and call for reinforcements when they prove unable to defeat him. Xiao Yang usually spares them, using their attacks to improve his techniques, though he easily kills weaker opponents.

Significant themes

• Cosmic rules and restricted knowledge: The Nine Tribulations Secret Manual cannot be transferred because of the universe’s laws, regardless of Luo Feng’s efforts.
• Power through practice: Xiao Yang combines battle experience, clones, simulated opponents, and enhanced comprehension to turn abstract mastery into practical techniques.
• Caution and consequence: Xiao Yang’s decision not to pursue the manual reflects his concern that cultivation could draw the attention of Sitting Mountain Guest and expose him to unwanted scrutiny.

Plot points

• After more than thirty years without sightings, Xiao Yang reappears on the Ten Thousand Plants Continent. An Elementary King-level Immortal recognizes him, calls for help, and burns his Divine Power, but Xiao Yang kills him in fewer than a thousand moves.
• The Alien Race pursuers arrive too late and find the Immortal dead. They conclude Xiao Yang has reached the King-level Limit, making weaker searchers reconsider continuing the hunt.
• Xiao Yang explains that his expanded Space Lock and detector let him spot approaching reinforcements and escape by Teleportation. He avoids using the Flame Star Vine because it could draw a Venerable’s attention and frighten off future opponents.
• A message reaches Xiao Yang through an Immortal squad he previously rescued. King Zhenyue invites him to join the Hong Alliance; Xiao Yang accepts and arranges to meet him at the 055 Barracks.
• Xiao Yang reaches the barracks and is welcomed at his villa by King Zhenyue and eight other King-level experts.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang’s decades of training have made him powerful enough to rival a Peak King, perhaps even a King-level Limit expert. He remains confident but cautious, choosing controlled fights over overwhelming force.
• The slain Immortal’s desperate use of Divine Power underscores the danger Xiao Yang poses.
• King Zhenyue, a renowned Human King-level Limit expert, takes the initiative to recruit Xiao Yang. Their first meeting is cordial, as Xiao Yang welcomes him and the other kings into his villa.

Significant themes

• Strength and reputation: Xiao Yang’s rapid victory reinforces his growing status and deters weaker pursuers.
• Caution and restraint: He balances training against the risks of attracting a Venerable or making future opponents flee.
• Alliance and belonging: Joining the Hong Alliance brings Xiao Yang into the Human-led network of powerful battlefield allies.

• Xiao Yang visits Hongmeng City, where he learns more about the Alliance’s vast membership, meets several experts, and decides to use his grandmaster’s Supreme Treasure Hall for future sales.
• Remembering the Golden Armor’s ability to grant its wearer enormous strength, Xiao Yang buys one for five billion Chaos Units, hoping it may help his associate John develop similar equipment.
• Soon afterward, Void Ruins Venerable summons Xiao Yang on behalf of the Dragon-Walking Lord, the Human Race’s foremost artifact refiner. Xiao Yang suspects the grandmaster wants to discuss the Golden Armor. When they arrive, the Dragon-Walking Lord sends Void Ruins Venerable away.

Character developments and interactions

• Xiao Yang readily commits to serving humanity by joining the Hong Alliance, then confidently explores its city and spends lavishly on an item he sees as both useful and potentially instructive.
• King Zhenyue acts as Xiao Yang’s direct sponsor, guiding him through the formal induction and exchanging contact details with him and the other envoys.
• The Dragon-Walking Lord’s longstanding inability to reproduce King Armor explains the significance of Xiao Yang’s purchase—and why the grandmaster may be interested in it.
• Void Ruins Venerable is friendly and familiar with Xiao Yang, but is dismissed by the Dragon-Walking Lord, leaving him visibly hurt.

Significant themes

• Duty to one’s people: The Primal Ancestor frames fighting for the Alliance and humanity as the responsibility of every human expert.
• Power and scarcity: King Armor could greatly strengthen human Immortals, but its production remains a difficult, unresolved challenge.
• Ambition and opportunity: Xiao Yang’s resources and curiosity let him pursue rare technology that could benefit both his own plans and humanity.

Key plot points and events

• The Dragon-Walking Lord asks Xiao Yang whether he knows how to refine King Armor, explaining that the Human Race needs the method far more than a way to use a few existing suits.
• Xiao Yang admits he has not yet studied his newly purchased Golden Armor. The Dragon-Walking Lord says it will arrive soon and asks Xiao Yang’s Avatar to remain in Chaos City.
• When the armor arrives, Xiao Yang discovers his Earth body cannot use it. He takes it to John, the blacksmith in Farm Town.
• John agrees to reveal the refining method in exchange for materials sufficient for a hundred suits. Xiao Yang promptly supplies them and receives the method on a Jade Slip. John also claims he can make armor ten times more powerful using the same materials.
• Xiao Yang transmits the method to the Dragon-Walking Lord, who recognizes its ingenuity and promises that the Human Race will reward Xiao Yang if it works.
• Three days later, John’s newly made Golden Armor reaches Xiao Yang’s farm. Wearing it, Xiao Yang’s Heavenly Void Clone heads back to the Ten Thousand Plants Continent, with its combat strength doubled.

Character developments

• The Dragon-Walking Lord shifts from testing Xiao Yang’s knowledge to eagerly anticipating the chance to reproduce the armor.

Significant themes

• Knowledge and craftsmanship as power: The armor’s value lies not only in wearing it but in learning how to make it.

Character interactions

• The Dragon-Walking Lord speaks to Xiao Yang as his grandmaster, probing whether he can provide something useful to the Human Race.
