Chapter Summaries

Emperor Jun and Nüwa received the Qiankun Cauldron from Hongjun and followed the Heavenly Dao’s guidance to the Northern Sea. There they found a colossal, untrained Great Turtle whose limbs could serve as pillars for Sky Support, while the turtle sensed that disaster was near.

• Hongjun lent the Qiankun Cauldron to Emperor Jun and Nüwa, then vanished with Zixiao Palace after they left.
• Returning to the Primordial World, Emperor Jun and Nüwa sensed the Heavenly Dao’s call, while the four divine beasts and other powerful beings felt the shifting Heavenly Secret.
• Emperor Jun accepted that Heaven’s guidance could not be refused, and he and Nüwa headed for the Northern Sea.
• The Great Turtle awoke in terror and found that its enormous body was too deeply rooted in the seabed for it to escape.
• Emperor Jun and Nüwa found the Great Turtle and discovered that, despite its immense strength and Golden Immortal cultivation, it had never practiced cultivation.

Emperor Jun extracted the Great Ao’s soul and sent it to Lady Pingxin to await reincarnation, then raised its body from the Northern Sea and placed it in Nüwa’s Qiankun Cauldron. At the Heavenly Court, he asked Nüwa to refine the entire body into four Sky-Supporting Pillars using the Four Symbols Method.

• Emperor Jun seized the Great Ao’s Primordial Spirit, promised it merit and a worry-free next life, and transformed it into a soul.
• Emperor Jun sent the Great Ao’s soul to Lady Pingxin in the Underworld to await the descent of merit before reincarnation.
• Emperor Jun relocated the beings on the Great Ao’s back, then lifted the body from the Northern Sea with a giant golden claw.
• Nüwa summoned the Qiankun Cauldron, while the Five Sages turned their attention toward it and Emperor Jun warned them that it belonged to the Dao Ancestor.
• Nüwa placed the Great Ao’s body in the cauldron and went with Emperor Jun to the Heavenly Court.
• Emperor Jun asked Nüwa to refine the Great Ao into four Sky-Supporting Pillars using the Four Symbols Method.

Emperor Jun summoned the four veteran Grand Luo Golden Immortals who embodied the Four Symbols and promised them a tremendous opportunity. He left them uncertain about its nature, but told them to prepare because their current cultivation was too low.

• Emperor Jun entrusted Sage Nüwa with refining the Heavenly Pillars and sent the four Golden Dragons to summon the Four Symbols.

• The four Four Symbols beings met at the Southern Heavenly Gate and followed the Golden Dragons into the Hall of Universal Brightness.
• Azure Dragon Mengzhang, Vermilion Bird Lingguang, White Tiger Jianbing, and Black Tortoise Zhiming bowed before Emperor Jun, who promised them a tremendous opportunity.
• When Vermilion Bird Lingguang asked what the opportunity was, Emperor Jun said they would learn later and warned that their Grand Luo Golden Immortal cultivation was too low.

Emperor Jun gave Mengzhang, Jianbing, Lingguang, and Zhiming the Four Symbols Secret Method, recruited them into the Heavenly Court, and sent them back to cultivate. He then developed a plan to stabilize the Primordial World by combining the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars with a modified Grand Heavenly Star Formation, which began to take shape in his Mind Realm.

• Emperor Jun gave Azure Dragon Mengzhang, White Tiger Jianbing, Vermilion Bird Lingguang, and Black Tortoise Zhiming different versions of the Four Symbols Secret Method and said it could help them reach the Quasi-Sage realm.
• Emperor Jun invited the four beings to join the Heavenly Court, and they accepted, receiving a share of its Karmic Luck.
• Mengzhang, Jianbing, Lingguang, and Zhiming returned to their clans, reported what had happened, and entered seclusion under the protection of their clans' old ancestors.
• Emperor Jun considered how Nüwa was using the Great Ao to forge four Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars that could resonate with the four beings and help stabilize heaven and earth.
• Emperor Jun modified the Grand Heavenly Star Formation in his Mind Realm and Hetu Luoshu Diagram to support the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars while retaining the formation's original functions.
• Emperor Jun's revised formation took shape with the twenty-eight constellations assigned duties across four directions, including Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise manifestations.

Emperor Jun completed his Mind Realm’s Four Symbols arrangement and sent Eastern Emperor Taiyi instructions to gradually alter the Grand Heavenly Star Formation. As preparations to support the sky continued, Eastern Lord Duke lifted the Celestial Court’s lockdown and led an assault on the Wu Tribe, whose eleven Ancestral Witches fought back without their formation.

• Emperor Jun stabilized his Mind Realm with four mountains embodying the Four Symbols and finalized changes to the Grand Heavenly Star Formation.
• Emperor Jun sent the formation’s new design to Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who ordered the Star Gods to begin moving the stars while he supervised from the Sun Star.
• Sage Nüwa refined Great Ao’s body into four Heavenly Pillars and inscribed the Four Symbols Method on them as the four guardians continued training.
• After the Celestial Court recovered from its injuries, Eastern Lord Duke lifted its lockdown and gathered allied races to attack the Wu Tribe.
• The eleven remaining Ancestral Witches led the Wu Tribe’s defense and fought without the Twelve Heavens Godly Devil Annihilation Formation.

Emperor Jun and Nüwa completed preparations for supporting the Primordial World with the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars. After the pillars settled at the world’s four extremities and stabilized the land, Emperor Jun summoned the Four Symbols Beings to take their positions.

• Azure Dragon Mengzhang, White Tiger Jianbing, Vermilion Bird Lingguang, and Black Tortoise Zhiming reached the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm but could not break through without an opportunity.
• Nüwa brought the completed Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars to Emperor Jun, who isolated them to stop them absorbing energy before sending them to the four extremities of the Primordial World.
• The azure, white, red, and black pillars transformed their surroundings and grew as they drew in Primordial Spiritual Energy, then formed a connected arrangement that strengthened the Primordial World.
• The Celestial Court and the Wu Tribe stopped fighting and withdrew, while the Three Purities and the Two Western Sages realized the merit they had sought had disappeared.
• Emperor Jun called on Mengzhang, Jianbing, Lingguang, and Zhiming to take their positions as the Four Symbols Divine Beasts.

Emperor Jun’s Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars began stabilizing the Primordial World, while the Sages watched, unable to interfere. As the pillars grew stronger, Nüwa revealed a secret method for using Five-Colored Divine Stone to connect them more seamlessly to Pangu’s Membrane.

• The Sages recognized that the Primordial Heavenly Dao supported Emperor Jun’s plan, and Jie Yin explained how the western pillar was already benefiting the West.
• Azure Dragon Mengzhang, White Tiger Jianbing, Vermilion Bird Lingguang, and Black Tortoise Zhiming merged with their respective Heavenly Pillars.
• Emperor Jun activated the Grand Heavenly Star Formation, channeling Primordial Spiritual Energy through the Twenty-Eight Constellations to accelerate the pillars’ growth.
• Emperor Jun’s incarnation waited atop Mount Buzhou, avoiding the Pangu aura until Sky Support was complete.
• Nüwa told Emperor Jun that her Master had passed down a method to refine Five-Colored Divine Stone with the Qiankun Cauldron and connect the pillars to Pangu’s Membrane.

Emperor Jun prepared to seize the Heavenly Realm’s connection to the Primordial Heavenly Dao while the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars grew toward the Pangu Membrane. Nüwa’s Five-Colored Divine Stone helped them complete Sky Support, and the pillars and their guardians transformed into Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures and Quasi-Sages.

• Nüwa returned to Phoenix Perch Mountain and refined Five-Colored Divine Stone in the Qiankun Cauldron while Emperor Jun entered the Heavenly Realm Space.
• Emperor Jun saw that his influence had spread through most of the Heavenly Realm and waited for the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars to finish growing before attempting to claim its connection to the Primordial Heavenly Dao.
• The Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars crossed the Primordial Starry Sky and approached the Pangu Membrane as the great powers of the Primordial World watched.
• Nüwa sent the Five-Colored Divine Stone to the Four Extremities, where it melted between the pillars and the Pangu Membrane; an extra piece fell from the Eastern Wood Heavenly Pillar into the eastern region.
• The four pillars fused with the Pangu Membrane and transformed into Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, while Azure Dragon Mengzhang, White Tiger Jianbing, Vermilion Bird Lingguang, and Black Tortoise Zhiming advanced to the Quasi-Sage realm.

The Four Symbols beings reached the Quasi-Sage realm and were appointed to guard the Four Extremities' Heavenly Pillars as Divine Lords. Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared, claimed his share of merit, and reclaimed the Qiankun Cauldron, while Emperor Jun focused on Mount Buzhou.

• The Four Symbols beings broke through to the Quasi-Sage realm, and Emperor Jun appointed Mengzhang, Jianbing, Lingguang, and Zhiming as Divine Lords guarding the four Heavenly Pillars.
• Merit descended upon the Four Symbols, their clans, and the Star Gods, while a great share remained for Emperor Jun and the Heavenly Court.
• Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared and received a portion of the merit, revealing to the Five Sages that he had participated in the undertaking.
• Hongjun reclaimed the Qiankun Cauldron from Phoenix Perch Mountain, then vanished as the remaining merit split between Nüwa and Emperor Jun.
• Emperor Jun absorbed the merit into his Merit Golden Wheel and kept his attention fixed on Mount Buzhou.

Emperor Jun’s incarnation drew a wisp of Pangu aura from Mount Buzhou and endured a painful transformation while Emperor Jun supplied stellar force and spiritual energy. He emerged stronger and able to contain the aura, but Mount Buzhou weakened, confirming that its Pangu aura could not be restored by ordinary nourishment.

• The Incarnation of Emperor Jun sensed Mount Buzhou relaxing after the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars fused with the Pangu Membrane, then decided to draw on the mountain’s remaining Pangu aura.
• The Incarnation of Emperor Jun used his Ancestral Witch bloodline to draw a wisp of Pangu aura into his body, where it overwhelmed the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique and triggered a painful bodily and spiritual transformation.
• Emperor Jun increased the Stellar Force and Primordial Spiritual Energy flowing into Mount Buzhou through the Grand Heavenly Star Formation to provide energy for the transformation.
• The Incarnation of Emperor Jun completed his transformation, becoming far stronger than before without reaching the Profound Skill Nine Revolutions, and gained the ability to contain but not absorb Pangu aura.
• The Incarnation of Emperor Jun sensed that carrying the Pangu aura made his body heavy and weakened Mount Buzhou, whose lost Pangu aura could not be restored by stellar force and spiritual energy.

Emperor Jun absorbed more Pangu aura from Mount Buzhou while using his Laws to seize control of the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel. When he tried to reach the Golden Eye at its center, Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared and confronted him.

• The Incarnation of Emperor Jun absorbed Pangu aura from Mount Buzhou, growing heavier as the mountain weakened and the Grand Heavenly Star Formation nourished it.

• The Golden Eye opened and repelled Emperor Jun's Laws when he tried to approach it.
• Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared in the Heavenly Dao Space and rebuked Emperor Jun, who stopped advancing his Laws.

Emperor Jun resisted Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s attempt to strip him of the Heavenly Emperor position by invoking his immense merit, forcing the Heavenly Dao to offer him a transaction. He accepted complete control over the Heavenly Realm in exchange for his merit, and the chapter ended as the Heavenly Dao began consuming that merit while Emperor Jun reached toward its Golden Eye.

• Dao Ancestor Hongjun tried to revoke Emperor Jun’s Heavenly Emperor position, but Emperor Jun invoked his contributions and Merit Golden Wheel to preserve it.
• The Heavenly Dao offered Emperor Jun complete control over the Heavenly Realm in exchange for his boundless merit.
• Emperor Jun accepted the transaction, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun departed with a complicated expression.
• The Heavenly Realm Laws Golden Wheel left the Throne of Law and appeared in the Heavenly Realm Space as the Golden Eye focused on Emperor Jun.
• The Golden Eye enveloped Emperor Jun and rapidly drained his merit while he used the Heavenly Realm’s laws to touch its core.

Emperor Jun used up his accumulated merit while taking control of the Heavenly Realm’s Golden Eye, then borrowed merit from the Heavenly Dao to complete the takeover. By tracing the Heavenly Realm’s history, he transformed his Law Golden Wheel and greatly increased his strength and understanding of the Heavenly Realm.

• Emperor Jun’s accumulated merit ran out before his Laws could occupy the center of the Golden Eye, leaving him unable to finish taking control of the Heavenly Realm.
• Emperor Jun vowed to repay the Heavenly Dao and asked it to lend him merit, incurring a debt that removed the Golden Eye’s resistance.
• Emperor Jun’s Laws occupied the Golden Eye’s core and spread through the Throne of Law, the Heavenly Realm, and the Thirty-Three Heavens.
• Emperor Jun observed how the Heavenly Realm and the Primordial Heavenly Dao had developed, gaining insight into the origins and evolution of their Laws.
• Emperor Jun’s Law Golden Wheel transformed around a core eye, greatly enriching his Laws and strengthening him enough to believe he could suppress Devil Ancestor Luo Hou.

After taking complete control of the Heavenly Realm, Emperor Jun erased the hidden Heavenly Emperor’s Mandate, which had been destined for Haotian. Dao Ancestor Hongjun explained that Haotian and Yaochi’s own Heaven’s Mandates had also vanished, leaving Haotian troubled about his changed future.

• Emperor Jun realized that the Heavenly Realm could help another being become a Sage and considered how his brother, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, might benefit.
• Emperor Jun discovered an unawakened Heavenly Emperor’s Mandate within the Heavenly Realm and used its Laws to erase it.
• Haotian and Yaochi felt a great opportunity slip away, failed to calculate its cause, and asked Dao Ancestor Hongjun for guidance.
• Dao Ancestor Hongjun told Haotian and Yaochi that their Heaven’s Mandates had vanished along with their connection to the Heavenly Realm.
• Yaochi accepted that she might remain in Zixiao Palace, while Haotian was left with chaotic thoughts about his lost future.

Haotian resented Emperor Jun after realizing his chance to become Heavenly Emperor had disappeared, while Emperor Jun used the Heavenly Realm to reach the vast ocean of Heavenly Dao Laws and began drawing its scattered Laws in for study. In the Underworld, Lady Pingxin watched the sleeping Great Ao as Merit mysteriously began appearing on him.

• Haotian imagined the authority and Merit of being Heavenly Emperor, then hid his resentment toward Emperor Jun because of Emperor Jun’s power.
• Emperor Jun used the Heavenly Realm’s Golden Eye to reconnect with the Heavenly Dao and traced the Laws back to their vast source.
• Emperor Jun linked the Heavenly Realm Laws Golden Wheel to the ocean of Heavenly Dao Laws and drew scattered Laws into the Heavenly Realm to study them.
• Emperor Jun used the Hetu Luoshu Diagram and the Grand Heavenly Star Formation to suppress the incoming Laws, then returned to the Hall of Universal Brightness to sort and comprehend them.
• Lady Pingxin watched the Great Ao sleep on the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk and noticed that Merit had begun accumulating on his soul.

Lady Pingxin discovered that the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars were Great Ao’s body and chose to leave his eventual reincarnation to Emperor Jun. As conflict between the Celestial Court and the Wu Tribe intensified, Zhun Ti set out to draw the Demon Clan into the war by approaching the Ten Great Golden Crows, while Jie Yin secretly followed him.

• Lady Pingxin realized that Great Ao’s body formed the Four Symbols Heavenly Pillars and decided to watch over his soul rather than choose his reincarnation herself.
• After the sky-supporting work ended, the Celestial Court and the Wu Tribe clashed, and the eleven Ancestral Witches used an incomplete Twelve Heavens Godly Devil Annihilation Formation against the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
• At Mount Sumeru, Zhun Ti proposed using Emperor Jun’s descendants to provoke the Demon Clan into the conflict, and Jie Yin reluctantly allowed him to proceed.
• Zhun Ti disguised himself and headed toward the Sun Star, while Jie Yin followed secretly because he feared his junior brother would fail.
• When Zhun Ti sensed a Three-legged Golden Crow in the starry sky, he changed course and approached it; Great Golden Crow Bo Huang then found a figure blocking his path.

Bo Huang recognized Sage Zhun Ti’s attempt to manipulate him and used his father’s warning to alert Eastern Emperor Taiyi. Emperor Jun watched from hiding as Taiyi prepared the Grand Heavenly Star Formation to test Zhun Ti, while Bo Huang was ordered to gather his brothers and guard the Sun Star.

• Sage Zhun Ti approached Bo Huang in disguise and urged him to take the Demon Clan into the conflict between the Celestial Court and the Wu Tribe.
• Bo Huang pretended to agree, but Emperor Jun’s mental warning broke Zhun Ti’s bewitchment, and Emperor Jun identified Zhun Ti and Sage Jie Yin nearby.

• Emperor Jun revealed that he was present and gave Taiyi permission to act, while Taiyi summoned the Star Gods to activate the formation.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi told Bo Huang to gather his brothers and join the Fusang Tree in guarding the Sun Star.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi used the Grand Heavenly Star Formation to strengthen himself and expose Sage Zhun Ti’s plot against the Demon Clan’s Crown Prince. When Zhun Ti tried to hide, Taiyi used the East Emperor Bell to force him to reveal himself, while Emperor Jun kept Sage Jie Yin from intervening.

• Bo Huang agreed to Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s request and headed toward the Fusang Tree as Taiyi adjusted the Grand Heavenly Star Formation and drew on the stars’ power.
• Emperor Jun confronted Sage Jie Yin, who admitted that Sage Zhun Ti had done wrong and offered to pay a price.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi accused Zhun Ti of scheming against the Demon Clan’s Crown Prince, but Zhun Ti stayed hidden while Sage Jie Yin asked Emperor Jun to forgive him.
• Emperor Jun told Sage Jie Yin to wait and watch as Eastern Emperor Taiyi emerged from the formation and demanded that Zhun Ti show himself and apologize.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi rang the East Emperor Bell and sent spatial tremors through the area, forcing Zhun Ti to reveal himself with his Sixteen Zhang Golden Body.
• Emperor Jun formed Space Barriers that let the tremors pass over him and Sage Jie Yin without disturbing them.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi fought Sage Zhun Ti, then lured him into the Grand Heavenly Star Formation and revealed its true power. Zhun Ti was trapped inside as Taiyi began controlling the formation against him.

• Sage Zhun Ti dismissed Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s accusation, and Taiyi attacked him with the East Emperor Bell.
• Zhun Ti resisted the bell, counterattacked with the Seven Treasure Tree, and gained the advantage over Taiyi.
• Sage Jie Yin asked Demon Emperor Jun to end the battle, but Jun told him to keep watching.
• Taiyi retreated into the Grand Heavenly Star Formation, and Zhun Ti followed before realizing the danger.
• Taiyi activated the formation’s full power, lighting the 365 Main Stars and 480 Million Auxiliary Stars and trapping Zhun Ti within it.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi used the Grand Heavenly Star Formation to fight Sage Zhun Ti, whose ancient stellar aura cut off his connection to the Heavenly Dao. The chapter ended with Zhun Ti reaching for Taiyi while the East Emperor Bell slowed him by freezing space and time.

• Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Xihe activated the Grand Heavenly Star Formation with their Star Banners, while Changxi, the Twelve Moons, and the Ten Great Golden Crows observed the stars.
• The formation stopped converting Chaotic Energy into Primordial Spiritual Energy and withdrew its support from Mount Buzhou and the Four Symbols Supporting Pillars, worrying Hongjun, Grand Pure Laozi, and the Four Symbols.
• The formation's ancient stellar aura isolated Sage Zhun Ti from the Heavenly Dao, intensifying the battle and preventing other Sages from observing it.
• Sage Zhun Ti enlarged his body and reached toward Eastern Emperor Taiyi, targeting the Sun Star and using a palm technique to draw in Stellar Force.
• Eastern Emperor Taiyi rang the East Emperor Bell with the formation's power, restraining Zhun Ti by freezing space and time, but Zhun Ti continued struggling toward him.
