He invoked [Golden Talent: Memory Corridor], and an overwhelming sword echo filled the battlefield.

• Past Li Ping began to dissipate as the rewritten outcome overwhelmed the power of [colorful entry: omnipotence].

Zero revealed that his true Golden Finger ability operated on a narrative level, allowing him to rewrite reality and defeat Past Li Ping. Before vanishing, Past Li Ping learned that Zero could use Chen Fan’s ability priority and questioned their relationship, but Zero gave no direct answer.

• Zero revealed his narrative-level Golden Finger ability, and Past Li Ping recognized that he had lost despite having overwhelmed Zero in strength.
• Past Li Ping warned that rewriting reality might alert taboo existences, but Zero said his ability’s priority was far higher than theirs.

• Past Li Ping asked whether Zero had known Chen Fan before he obtained the Talent, but Zero avoided answering and said they were the same kind of person.
• Zero’s Golden Finger ability engulfed Past Li Ping, and his phantom formed from six Class Cards disappeared.

After defeating the six Colorful Class Cards, Zero confronted the mysterious “big shot” who had come to observe the battle. The being revealed immense power and an ancient history, leaving Zero to judge them comparable to Past Li Ping at his peak.

• Zero let the six Colorful Class Cards return to the [Gods and Devils Realms] and called out the hidden observer.
• A mist-shrouded being appeared, and Zero explained that they had noticed it through the Narrative text and its reaction to Zero’s Golden Finger ability.
• Zero revealed a previously unwitnessed Narrative entry predicting that Wu Yong’s “big shot” would come to observe and probe during the battle.

• Zero threatened to kill the being, which erased reality and boasted that it had survived the Great Extinction and the reckoning of the [Supreme Dao Immortal Venerable].
• Zero assessed the being as at least as powerful as Past Li Ping at his peak.

The mist-cloaked big shot transformed reality into an online game called [Era of Equality], where all [Otherworldly Demon] Golden Finger abilities had equal priority. Wang Hao and Zero recognized that Zero’s Narrative could only alter small parts of the gamified world, leaving them facing the big shot’s advantage.

• The big shot told Zero that he had come to meet Chen Fan, watch the battle, and test the strength of Chen Fan, Zero, and the Chat Group members.
• Wang Hao appeared beside Zero and confronted the big shot, making clear that he and Zero were not allied with him.
• The big shot restored and mutated reality, turning worlds into game instances and presenting living beings with blue panels showing their stats and skills.
• The big shot named his ability [Era of Equality] and explained that it treated every [Otherworldly Demon] Golden Finger ability as an equal plugin.
• Zero tried to use Narrative to reverse the game-like reality, but his limited power could only change small areas that were quickly corrected as bugs.

A mysterious Supreme Existence used [Era of Equality] to turn reality into a game and battled Zero and Wang Hao, whose plugins let them manipulate their health and attacks. After they reduced his health to a single point, he revealed that his true ability was a powerful game cheat called [Fling Trainer Pro Max].

• The Supreme Existence attacked Zero and Wang Hao with skills empowered by [Era of Equality], rapidly draining their health.
• Zero declared that he had not been hit and had practically infinite health, restoring his health bar and multiplying his attacks tenfold.
• Zero's attacks removed more than half of the Supreme Existence's health, while Wang Hao boosted his attributes and struck with stacked attacks that emptied the health bar.
• The Supreme Existence endured the attacks and reduced his health bar to its final point, then described [Wind Spirit Moon Shadow] as the strongest game plugin.
• The Supreme Existence revealed that his true ability was [Fling Trainer Pro Max], a cheat that could include health lock and one-hit kills.

Chen Fan suspected that the mysterious big shot’s [Era of Equality] ability was the missing core component of his [Golden Talent: The Only Player]. In the simulation, Wang Hao realized the big shot had used Zero as an excuse to make an observer outside the scene witness his true abilities.

• Zero and Wang Hao attacked the big shot, but the opponent survived with one hit point and evaded or blocked their attacks using [Wind Spirit Moon Shadow].
• Zero activated Narrative to anchor the outcome, and the big shot called the ability troublesome while admitting they had only been probing.
• Chen Fan considered whether [Era of Equality] shared an origin with his incomplete [Golden Talent: The Only Player] and returned to the Simulator Screen to watch what happened next.
• The big shot’s enhanced attack killed Zero and Wang Hao, but Zero used Narrative to rewrite their death while Wang Hao remained focused on the opponent’s abilities.
• Wang Hao concluded that the big shot’s real objective was to make an outside observer see his true methods, and that Zero had served as an excuse.

Wang Hao faced a mysterious being who admitted that it had lured Zero away to test Wang Hao, then trapped him in a simulated Great Annihilation. Wang Hao escaped the instance using a Golden Finger ability from one of his possibilities and began displaying another ability.

• Wang Hao accused the mysterious being of targeting him and asked whether Zero would join the attack, but Zero said the confrontation was beyond its control and withdrew.
• The being revealed that it wanted to probe Wang Hao because it knew little about his abilities, then summoned a Great Realm that engulfed them both.
• Wang Hao witnessed a simulated Great Annihilation and realized the being had truly lived through the man-made catastrophe.
• Wang Hao used a possibility's Word Follows the Law ability to escape the F-rank instance, despite its reduced priority under the being's Era of Equality.
• Wang Hao altered the gamified reality until his stats showed “???” and declared that his Wind Spirit Moon Shadow was activating.

Chen Fan watched Wang Hao clash with the being in the mist, who repeatedly altered his attributes and pushed him to reveal his abilities. When Wang Hao challenged the being to keep probing him or fight to the death, it unveiled a mod that manifested as an enormous egg on the verge of hatching.

• Chen Fan realized Wang Hao could stack possibilities and draw on their Golden Finger abilities, though the abilities appeared downgraded.
• The being in the mist used Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Pro Max Edition to drive Wang Hao's attributes toward zero, while Wang Hao continued fighting with abilities drawn from different possibilities.
• Wang Hao told the being it could keep probing him or fight to the death, and the being challenged him in return.
• The being revealed that it had mods in its previous life and transformed the game-like reality, producing an enormous egg that began to crack as worlds formed from its Dao Resonance.

Wang Hao fought Him after Him transformed reality into a pixelated sandbox world and tried to erase him. When the mist-shrouded figure patched away Wang Hao’s virus ability and demanded to see his true power, Wang Hao brought one of his future possibilities into reality.

• Him emerged from the shattered egg as a pixel-art being named Him, and the mist-shrouded figure revealed that his Mod gave him creator-like powers.
• Him altered reality into a sandbox world and tried to seal Wang Hao inside it, but Wang Hao escaped using his Speed Force ability.
• Him tried to erase Wang Hao, who countered with a Virus ability and began contesting Him’s World Administrator control.
• The mist-shrouded figure patched the sandbox world, removing Wang Hao’s virus and ending his contest for administrative control.
• The mist-shrouded figure urged Wang Hao to reveal his true ability, and Wang Hao summoned a future possibility into reality while mentioning Chen Fan.

Wang Hao summoned a powerful future possibility of himself to fight the mist-shrouded big shot, but both ended the clash before either was defeated as other ancient beings began watching. Zero confirmed that Present Li Ping had perished and Wang Hao would not target you again unless a new Chat Group member triggered another mission, allowing you to return to reality.

• Wang Hao anchored Possibility Wang Hao, a future version empowered by a Sign-In System, into reality.
• Possibility Wang Hao fought the big shot with clashing treasures and overwhelming stats while the big shot wondered whether Wang Hao could anchor other beings' possibilities.
• Possibility Wang Hao began to dissipate, and Wang Hao admitted that anchoring a future possibility had a cost and chose to stop fighting.
• The big shot withdrew, restored reality and its usual laws, then cut off the watching beings' view before disappearing; Wang Hao also dissipated.
• Zero told you that Present Li Ping had perished and Wang Hao would not act against you unless a new Chat Group member started another mission, so you returned to reality.

Chen Fan reviewed the big shot’s apparent goodwill and learned more about his contact with Wang Hao, while his simulated self resumed cultivation and searched for unclaimed Great Realms. The search led him to a Mortal Cultivation World whose highest realm reached the level of a Supreme Existence, making it a promising target.

• Chen Fan concluded that the big shot had likely noticed the Chat Group because of the supreme primordial unity sage dao fruit and considered using his Simulated Clone to approach him.
• The simulated Chen Fan received Wu Yong’s file detailing the battle between Zero and Past Li Ping and the big shot’s probe of Wang Hao.
• Chen Fan questioned Wu Yong about the file and the big shot’s intentions, but Wu Yong said he did not know and might only be expressing goodwill.
• The simulated Chen Fan ended the conversation and continued cultivating Talented Ones in the Supreme True Realm.
• Chen Fan had his other self use the Immortal-Settling Journey authority to search for Great Realms without higher-dimensional beings.
• The other self reached a Mortal Cultivation World where the Immortal Realm’s Dao Ancestors were comparable to Supreme Existences.

Chen Fan annihilated the Mortal Cultivation World’s realms and seized the Immortal Great Dao before synthesizing the [Primordial Cause] authority. He tested it on the Spirit Transformation Dao Master, who sensed the new karmic link and feared a powerful enemy had targeted him.

• Chen Fan transformed into Old Self, destroyed the Human Realm and Spirit Realm, and used [Escape One] to kill the beings of the Immortal Realm and its Dao Ancestor.
• Chen Fan seized the Immortal Great Dao and gained rewards, including two authority fragments, bringing his total to ten.
• Chen Fan synthesized the fragments and obtained the [Primordial Cause] authority, which could establish karma with any existing being.
• Chen Fan realized that creating karma could provide a connection for his [True-False Supreme Realm] divine ability, then chose the Spirit Transformation Dao Master as a test subject.
• Chen Fan established ordinary karma with the Spirit Transformation Dao Master, who sensed the link and panicked over the identity and power of whoever had targeted him.

You used life-and-death karma to slay the being assimilating the Longevity Realm, then entered a magic realm and killed its World Controller to seize the Magic Great Dao. The Magic Great Dao was placed in the Eternal Primordial Chaos Willow World to help complete it and nurture a Primordial God-Demon.

• You anchored life-and-death karma with the being assimilating the Longevity Realm, detected by it, then crushed its afterimage and killed it.
• You learned that the being’s karmic fruit position was the fixed lunar position and received rewards, including the major divine ability Body as Heaven and Earth.
• You considered why the system had recognized the being as a Spirit Transformation Dao Master, then set the question aside due to a lack of information.
• You brought your other self into a magic realm and had it slaughter every living being while you used the escape one authority to kill the realm’s World Controller.
• You used the Dao Seizure authority to obtain the Magic Great Dao and placed it in the Eternal Primordial Chaos Willow World.

After Li Ping cleared four great realms, Wang Hao and Zero blocked him from using the Immortal-Settling Journey to reach more realms with weak rulers. He returned to the Supreme True Realm and raised his Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking to twenty-six thousand layers.

• Li Ping destroyed a great realm, then used an other self to kill a Supreme Existence in the Starry Sky Great World and seize the Guixu Great Dao.
• Li Ping seized the Myriad Spirits Great Dao from a Spirit Transformation Dao Master and placed it with the Guixu Great Dao in the Eternal Primordial Chaos Willow World.
• Li Ping discovered that the Immortal-Settling Journey authority could no longer take him to realms ruled by Supreme Existences or Spirit Transformation Dao Masters.
• Li Ping used Golden Talent: Listening to learn that Zero had reserved four such realms for him, while Wang Hao and Zero had agreed to block him from finding more after he cleared them.
• Li Ping spent over two billion experience points on Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking, raising it from twenty-three thousand to twenty-six thousand layers.

After devouring another group of Nascent Soul True Lords, you reached the foundation establishment limit-breaking thirty-thousandth layer and were rapidly assimilated by heaven and earth. With I Am the Chess Player restoring your awareness, you discovered that life-bound divine abilities formed an immense seal within heaven and earth, though what it enclosed remained unknown.

• At age 52, you devoured six Nascent Soul True Lords who had reached the nascent soul middle stage, raising your foundation establishment and qi refining cultivation.
• You sent your other selves out to preach, but Listening produced almost no useful intelligence, and you suspected Zero had pocketed much of it.
• At age 53, you devoured six more Nascent Soul True Lords, reaching qi refining limit-breaking thirty-four-thousandth layer and foundation establishment limit-breaking thirty-thousandth layer.
• The breakthrough triggered an unexpectedly rapid assimilation by heaven and earth, allowing you to observe the Immortal Realm, Old Self, and several supreme beings.
• I Am the Chess Player restored your consciousness, and you saw life-bound divine abilities woven together in an ordered formation deep within heaven and earth.
• You realized the formation was a seal meant to enclose something—or some being.

You survived the assimilation of Heaven and Earth during foundation establishment limit-breaking after Zero intervened. Eight Rings intelligence revealed that foundation establishment limit-breaking drew on the sealed Dao God's power through Life-Bound Divine Abilities, and the chapter ended as the account began to describe a later upheaval.

• Heaven and Earth's assimilation threatened to overwhelm you, but Past Zero appeared and used their ability to make it recede.
• Zero departed before you could ask about the Life-Bound Divine Abilities woven into Heaven and Earth's seal.
• Eight Rings intelligence explained that ancient attempts at foundation establishment limit-breaking failed because the path was difficult and Heaven and Earth forbade it.
• The last Dao Child of the Dao Child Era devised a way to gain Heaven and Earth's aid by altering the Foundation Establishment True Person realm and creating Life-Bound Divine Abilities.
• Heaven and Earth approved the arrangement, allowing limit-breakers to draw the Dao God's real power through their divine abilities until it was exhausted.
• The intelligence began describing a shocking upheaval that occurred later.

After learning that Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking could draw on a sealed Dao God's power, the narrator consulted Senior Lin Feng about the Dao Child Era and its dangers. Lin Feng described an age ruled by Dao Children with powerful heaven's mandates and unique treasures, then revealed that Foundation Establishment True Persons apparently could not reincarnate back then.

• Alarmed by the pitfalls in Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking, the narrator used the Spacetime Token to ask Senior Lin Feng about Dao Children and Dao Gods.
• Senior Lin Feng reacted to the narrator's cultivation troubles, then explained that the Dao Child Era came before the Otherworldly Demons' rise.
• Lin Feng said Dao Children possessed heaven's mandates whose influence could shape entire eras, and suggested the narrator's purple mandate might have made them even more successful then.
• Lin Feng explained that Dao Children also relied on unique Supreme Treasures and Great Daos, inspiring others to leave immortal opportunities or use reincarnation to get close to them or become Dao Children.
• Lin Feng added that Foundation Establishment True Persons apparently lacked the ability to reincarnate during the Dao Child Era, leaving the narrator alarmed about another cultivation pitfall.

Lin Feng explained that only Dao Children could truly advance beyond Nascent Soul True Lord, while other cultivators were confined to false higher realms. He also linked Dao Children to Heaven and Earth’s hidden secrets and ended by mentioning the First Era’s Half-Immortal Otherworldly Demon, Reincarnation Immortal.

• The narrator asked Lin Feng about Foundation Establishment True Persons and the Dao Children of the early Dao Child Era, but Lin Feng admitted he knew little about them.
• Lin Feng said Heaven and Earth concealed the Dao Children’s greatest secret because they stood on the same battlefront as Heaven and Earth.
• Lin Feng revealed that only Dao Children could advance to true realms beyond Nascent Soul True Lord, while others had to pursue false realms born of necessity.
• Lin Feng explained that Dao God was the true realm corresponding to Supreme Existence and said Heaven and Earth hid what powers Dao Gods possessed.
• Lin Feng suggested the Supreme True Realm might reject Spirit Transformation Dao Masters because Dao Children carried Heaven’s fortune toward Dao God.
• Asked about the final Dao Child, Lin Feng connected it to the First Era and named Reincarnation Immortal as a Half-Immortal-level Otherworldly Demon from that era.

Chen Fan learned that the Reincarnation Immortal held the first era’s Spacetime Token, then Wu Yong told him that a powerful figure wanted to meet him. The chapter ended with Chen Fan unsure whether he would go to the figure or the figure would come to him.

• Senior Lin Feng told Chen Fan that the Reincarnation Immortal held the first era’s Spacetime Token and had traveled with two other figures, one suspected to be the final Dao Child.
• Chen Fan asked who held the second era’s Spacetime Token, but Senior Lin Feng said he would find out one day.
• After his Spacetime Token conversation ended, Chen Fan saw Wu Yong message him in the Chat Group.
• Wu Yong told Chen Fan that the big shot on his side wanted to meet him, and Chen Fan reluctantly accepted that he had to go.
• Chen Fan asked whether he would meet the big shot or the big shot would come to him, and Wu Yong replied that either was fine.

Chen Fan sent his Other Self to meet the mysterious big shot beside Wu Yong in the Level Nine Civilization, after consulting Zero and using Immortal-Settling Journey. The meeting revealed a virtual observation space and a civilization whose beings had merged their consciousness with Origin Source, transcending the multiverse.

• Wu Yong told Chen Fan that the big shot was beside him and asked Chen Fan to come meet them in the Level Nine Civilization.
• Chen Fan consulted Zero, who advised him to proceed and reminded him that he could retreat into Colorful Talent: Ten Gates if necessary.
• Chen Fan sent his Other Self to Wu Yong using Immortal-Settling Journey while his original body stayed in Supreme True Realm.
• Chen Fan arrived in a virtual space, where an unfamiliar electronic consciousness asked whether he was an Otherworldly Demon, and Wu Yong led him away from Observation Universe No. 10086.
• Chen Fan observed that Level Nine Civilization mass-produced imitations of rules and the Great Dao, and its beings had merged with Origin Source to transcend the multiverse.

Chen Fan met the big shot, who isolated them from other observers and offered to trade for one of Chen Fan’s talents. The big shot requested [purple talent: Equivalent Exchange], leaving Chen Fan to consider the deal.

• Chen Fan and Wu Yong discussed the overwhelming strength of the level nine civilization before the big shot contacted Chen Fan.
• The big shot asked whether Chen Fan’s golden finger abilities were the Simulator and talents, then created a virtual space that concealed their conversation from Wu Yong and other beings.
• The big shot offered to trade with Chen Fan for a talent, and Chen Fan asked which one he wanted.
• The big shot requested [purple talent: Equivalent Exchange], a talent Chen Fan considered of little use to him now.

You traded [purple talent: Existence from Nonexistence] to the mist-shrouded Supreme Existence for help surviving the forty-thousandth-layer tribulations of both Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking. Afterward, Zero said the [Otherworldly Demon] wanted to befriend you and pursue a few minor goals, but did not explain what they were.

• The Supreme Existence offered to help you survive the [Qi Refining Limit-Breaking Forty-Thousandth Layer] tribulation in exchange for [purple talent: Existence from Nonexistence].
• You asked the Supreme Existence to also help you survive the [Foundation Establishment Limit-Breaking Forty-Thousandth Layer] tribulation, and it agreed.
• You and the Supreme Existence settled the trade details, agreeing that it would help you first and receive payment afterward.
• You left the [level nine civilization] world and used [colorful talent: Ten Gates] to seek out Zero.
• Zero said the [Otherworldly Demon] wanted to befriend you and pursue a few insignificant goals, but declined to explain them.
