• Jiang Ming reflected that his companions could not match him because they had missed the ideal age and lacked the resources to cultivate the Heaven-Mending Scripture.

After ten years of cultivation, Jiang Ming prepared to pursue the Great Saint Realm while Ye Fan and their companions grew stronger and fought their way to the Thirtieth Pass of the Human Race.

On the Starry Sky Ancient Road, Yan Ruyu and the other women waited at the Fiftieth Pass as Ye Fan considered the coming conflict with the Heavenly Tyrant Body Lineage and trusted that Jiang Ming would not side with them.

• Jiang Ming studied the lightning Dao Fruit for over half a year, then let his companions study it as they wished.

Chapter Summary: “Fate Pattern Bindings”

Key Plot Points and Events

• A guardian envoy has been secretly monitoring Jiang Ming’s confidantes, whom she regards as her sisters. Because she was among the earliest women bound to Jiang Ming by the Fate Pattern and the Match Made Across a Thousand Miles, she immediately senses his arrival aboard an azure warship.
• The chapter explains that nearly all of Jiang Ming’s women are connected to him by invisible red threads created by the Fate Pattern. The strength of each bond varies according to the confidante’s power and relationship with Jiang Ming. This binding has influenced characters such as the Heavenly Jade Saintess and Yan Ruyu.
• Jiang Ming arrives with four veiled, exceptionally beautiful women. Their appearances are concealed by various forms of divine energy, partly because Jiang Ming is possessive and his companions dislike being watched by others.
• The Heavenly Jade Saintess joyfully rushes into Jiang Ming’s arms, revealing the depth of their relationship. His other confidantes are equally excited but remain composed because a dangerous Divine Thought has appeared.
• The Divine Thought is identified as likely having originated from the evil intent and accumulated faith surrounding the deceased Supreme Yin Human Emperor. The Overlord has unleashed it in his rage against Ye Fan, despite the danger that it could destroy the entire fiftieth human-race checkpoint.
• Jiang Ming attempts to use the Deliverance Scripture to restore the Supreme Yin Human Emperor’s consciousness, wondering whether the Divine Thought may provide an opportunity to revive or redeem him.
• Ye Fan recognizes Jiang Ming’s intention and kicks the injured Overlord toward Yan Ruyu before sitting down to chant the complete Deliverance Scripture himself. He uses Dao light, diagrams, and Primordial Chaos Qi to suppress and encircle the Divine Thought.
• The Divine Thought responds with overwhelming Supreme Yin power, death qi, and baleful energy. Its roar shakes the starry sky and terrifies the gathered cultivators, demonstrating the terrifying strength of an ancient Emperor’s corrupted remnant.
• The chapter ends with uncertainty over the Divine Thought’s exact origin. Some believe it may belong to Amitabha Buddha rather than the Supreme Yin Human Emperor or the recently deceased Azure Emperor.

Character Developments

• Jiang Ming is portrayed as powerful, emotionally significant to his companions, and deeply possessive. His attempt to awaken the Supreme Yin Human Emperor shows compassion and an interest in redeeming ancient figures rather than merely destroying them.
• The Heavenly Jade Saintess openly displays her attachment to Jiang Ming by embracing him immediately and calling to him with tenderness. Her earlier status as a Desolate Slave is connected to the Fate Pattern’s restraint and Jiang Ming’s influence.

• Jiang Ming’s other confidantes have matured through twenty years of hardship. Although emotionally excited by his return, they remain disciplined and avoid interfering with the crisis.

• The Overlord is consumed by humiliation and rage. Although severely injured, his Heavenly Tyrant Body allows rapid recovery, and his decision to release the Divine Thought recklessly threatens everyone nearby.
• The Supreme Yin Human Emperor’s remnant appears as an immensely powerful but corrupted Divine Thought, driven by rage and evil intent rather than conscious reason.

Significant Themes

• Fate, bonds, and restraint: The Fate Pattern links Jiang Ming to his confidantes through invisible threads, suggesting that love, destiny, and control are closely intertwined.
• Love and possessiveness: Jiang Ming’s relationships are affectionate but also possessive, while his companions share his dislike of outsiders’ intrusive attention.
• Redemption after death: Jiang Ming and Ye Fan attempt to use the Deliverance Scripture to restore or pacify an ancient Emperor’s corrupted remnant, raising the possibility that even a malicious Divine Thought may retain a recoverable soul.
• The danger of resentment and faith: The Divine Thought is formed from accumulated evil intent and belief, showing how powerful emotions can survive death and become catastrophic forces.
• Maturity through hardship: Jiang Ming’s companions have become calmer and more self-controlled after years of shared trials, contrasting with the Overlord’s uncontrolled anger.
• Power beyond conventional judgment: Divine Thoughts possess unpredictable strength, making them dangerous even when their true cultivation level is unclear.

Character Interactions

• Jiang Ming and Ye Fan independently invoke the Deliverance Scripture against the Divine Thought, with Ye Fan actively supporting Jiang Ming’s apparent goal.
• Ye Fan humiliates the Overlord by kicking him toward Yan Ruyu and then ignores him, emphasizing the difference between Ye Fan’s composure and the Overlord’s rage.
• The Overlord’s reckless actions endanger the entire gathering, forcing Jiang Ming, Ye Fan, and the surrounding cultivators to confront the resulting catastrophe.

Jiang Ming and the others suppressed Supreme Yin Human Emperor’s Divine Thought, then Jiang Ming persuaded the Human Emperor’s lingering will to meet the surviving wills of other ancient figures. Supreme Yin Human Emperor agreed to remain rather than dissipate, and showed Jiang Ming the bloodstained burial clothes left after his body was destroyed.

• Jiang Ming had Ye Fan use the human-bodied, ghost-faced lamp while everyone recited the Deliverance Scripture to restrain Supreme Yin Human Emperor’s Divine Thought.

• Jiang Ming gives Sixth- and Seventh-Stage Evolution Liquids to Ji Zi and Si Shen as support for their future cultivation.
• He persuades the Supreme Yin Human Emperor to accept four drops of the Ageless Immortal Spring, allowing the ancient emperor to remain nourished and asleep rather than exhausting himself in a futile final battle against future Dark Supremes.
• Jiang Ming returns to the Starry Sky Ancient Road aboard his Great-Saint-Grade spaceship, though he recognizes that the vessel will soon become inadequate as his strength continues to rise.
• During Jiang Ming’s year-long journey, Overlord is repeatedly used as a sparring opponent by Jiang Ming’s companions and confidantes. Already weakened, he is successively defeated and humiliated by several powerful women.
• Yan Ruyu battles Overlord for twenty days, using her Three-Talents Dao Fruit to restrain and severely injure him.
• Jiang Chanyu, now at the Saint King Third Heavenly Layer and partly entering the Divine Forbidden Realm, fights him for thirty days and leaves him even more desperate.
• After a brief rest, Fairy Zixia battles Overlord for forty days. Her Innate Dao Embryo, developed through the Western Emperor and Void Scriptures, allows her to evade and gradually erase his attacks.
• Despite Overlord’s furious threats, the Yaochi Fairy immediately challenges him. Her Five Elements Dao manifests entire worlds that repeatedly crush and suppress him. She also possesses more of the Nine Secrets than Overlord, including the healing Secret of “Zhe.”
• Two months later, Overlord, still clinging to his pride and unwillingness to admit defeat, is surrounded by Qi Zitong, Qi Meng, and Fan Xian. The trio eventually activates Saint-King-Grade mechas forged from Quasi-Emperor-level White Tiger bones and uses them to attack him.

Character Developments

• Jiang Ming’s companions have become extraordinarily powerful under his guidance. Their battles show that many of them can rival or surpass famous figures of the Human Race.
• Overlord suffers the greatest development, though it is largely psychological. Once undefeated and proud of his pure Heavenly Tyrant Body bloodline, he is repeatedly defeated, mocked, and forced to confront the collapse of his invincible Dao heart. His anger and humiliation grow with every battle.
• Yan Ruyu, Jiang Chanyu, Fairy Zixia, and the Yaochi Fairy each demonstrate a distinct Dao and fighting style, showing how Jiang Ming’s guidance has helped them develop unique and formidable paths rather than merely imitate established inheritances.

Significant Themes

• Growth through combat: Jiang Ming’s companions use Overlord as a genuine life-or-death training partner, allowing them to test their techniques without holding back.
• The collapse of arrogance: Overlord’s repeated defeats undermine his belief in his own invincibility and expose the vulnerability of relying entirely on bloodline and past victories.
• Individualized cultivation: The women’s different Daos—the Three Talents, Innate Dao Embryo, Five Elements World, and other inheritances—show the importance of developing personal understanding rather than following a single standard path.
• Preparation for a greater catastrophe: Jiang Ming refuses to depend on the lingering obsessions of ancient emperors and instead prepares himself and his companions for the future confrontation with the Dark Supremes.
• Legacy and preservation: The descendants, inheritances, seals, scriptures, and Evolution Liquids connect the older generation’s sacrifices with the cultivation and survival of the next generation.
• Humor amid brutality: Overlord’s misery is treated with dark comedy, especially as his former status as an invincible genius contrasts with his role as a battered training opponent.

Character Interactions

• Jiang Ming respectfully supports the Supreme Yin Human Emperor while persuading him to preserve his strength through sleep.
• Ji Zi’s loyalty to the emperor’s descendant demonstrates the enduring bond between the two taciturn companions.
• Jiang Ming’s companions cooperate indirectly by taking turns testing themselves against Overlord, while Jiang Ming observes, comments, and even encourages the battles.
• Overlord responds to each defeat with rage and insults, but his threats only motivate the women to continue attacking him.
• Yan Ruyu, Jiang Chanyu, Fairy Zixia, and the Yaochi Fairy each build upon the damage caused by the previous fighter, leaving Overlord progressively weaker and more psychologically broken.
• Qi Zitong, Qi Meng, and Fan Xian escalate the humiliation by using Jiang Ming’s powerful mechas against him, turning the final stage of the confrontation into a coordinated assault.

Overlord endured months of challenges from Jiang Ming’s allies, and Ye Fan moved to kill him after the battle. Great Saints Qi Tian and Canglan intervened to save Overlord, but Heavenly Jade Saintess challenged them to spar, with Daoist Qinghuang backing her.

• Jiang Ming’s women used their strength and the Nine Secrets: Lin to overwhelm Overlord, who struggled to reach the Divine Forbidden Realm.
• Xu Li lamented Overlord’s defeat, while Qi Zheng explained how Ye Fan had beaten him and a mysterious man had taken his Divine Thought.

• She follows this with A Thought, Flowers Bloom—Sovereign Over All Under Heaven, another technique created by the Ruthless Empress. Its countless blossoms become killing incarnations and petals, overwhelming the two veteran Great Saints.
• Qitian and Canglan are beaten severely, with Qitian suffering the worst. Although Qitian has secretly reached the Great Saint Seventh Heaven, neither he nor Canglan can withstand Heavenly Jade’s attacks.
• The battle draws a large crowd, especially because it involves people connected to the conflict between Ye Fan’s Sacred Body and the Heavenly Tyrant Body Lineage. Many spectators find it amusing that those who previously supported Overlord are now being punished themselves.

• Jiang Ming arrives after advancing to Great Saint Second Heaven and completing a tribulation. He carries his enormous, newly tempered Great Saint-grade Flying Saucer on his shoulder, shocking and amusing the spectators.

Character developments

• Heavenly Jade Saintess demonstrates extraordinary combat power despite being a newly advanced Great Saint. Her mastery of two Ruthless Empress techniques allows her to suppress even veteran Great Saints, and she uses the battle as a long-awaited opportunity to spar against opponents of comparable strength.
• Qitian is revealed to be much stronger than he had shown, possessing Great Saint Seventh Heaven cultivation, possibly enhanced by benefits from the Heavenly Tyrant Body Lineage. Nevertheless, his arrogance and attempt to bully others result in severe humiliation.
• Canglan fares slightly better because Heavenly Jade targets him less intensely, but he is still badly injured and shocked by her strength.
• Jiang Ming continues his rapid cultivation progress, breaking through after only a few years—far faster than ordinary Great Saints. His technological and Dao-based inventions also advance, particularly the Flying Saucer, which he plans to develop into a Quasi-Emperor- or even Great Emperor-level spacecraft.
• Qi Lin and Qi Huoshui have grown in status and protection after receiving the attention of a hidden Great Saint-level ancient demon, reflecting their increasing importance on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Significant themes

• Inheritance and innovation: Heavenly Jade Saintess inherits and adapts the Ruthless Empress’s techniques, while Jiang Ming combines ancient cultivation with advanced technology.
• The Ruthless Empress’s defiance: Her techniques embody her determination to create her own path and surpass established supreme arts such as the Nine Secrets.
• The corruption of institutions: The Starry Sky Ancient Road is no longer impartial; factions, Dao Protectors, guides, and law enforcers pursue personal interests, causing some prodigies to receive unfair treatment.
• Ambition and limitless development: Jiang Ming’s Flying Saucer symbolizes his willingness to attempt things others consider impossible, despite the immense material and technical requirements.

Character interactions

• Heavenly Jade Saintess brutally overwhelms Qitian and Canglan, turning their attempt to interfere and intimidate others into a public defeat.
• The gathered younger generation watches and enjoys the reversal of fortune, particularly because the defeated men had supported or defended Overlord.
• Qi Lin and Qi Huoshui observe the fight from the sidelines, while their acquaintances Qi Meng and Fan Xian react with uncontrollable laughter to Jiang Ming’s unusual entrance.
• Jiang Ming’s arrival shifts attention away from the battle: rather than appearing with a conventional weapon or vehicle, he casually carries a hundred-meter-wide flying saucer, creating a comic contrast with the surrounding serious conflict.

Jiang Ming arrived and used Eternal-Emptiness to turn Great Saint Qi Tian and Great Saint Canglan into powerless children, leaving them at Dragon Horse’s mercy. After Dragon Horse mocked and spanked them, Jiang Ming looked over the Heavenly Tyrant Body Lineage prodigy and his mount.
