Jiang Yuu's legacy spread through the Boundless Mountains and Seas as his moon gave rise to monster cultivation and Multiverse settlers introduced new cultivation systems. Jiang Yuu departed aboard Paradise Mountain to return to the Multiverse, but suddenly halted before returning to his throne.

Jiang Yuu learned that Immortal Lord Longevity had withdrawn to mourn his fiancée, Ruan Xinruan, and ordered Lucifer to record the war’s sacrifices for future generations. During the long journey through true “nothingness,” Jiang Yuu began to glimpse an insight that might let him reach a concept, but he had yet to cross the necessary threshold.

After becoming a Star Saint, Lionheart recovered memories of his past life as the Lord of Heaven’s eldest son and reflected on his parents and the Feland Human Race. He declined Vilnosha’s invitation to return to Paradise Mountain for now, choosing to study his people’s history and grow stronger first.

• Vilnosha arrived and revealed that Angels had secretly guarded Lionheart’s soul for years without interfering in his life.

• Jiang Yuu sent the Eastern Region Supremes and their armies home to rest, asked Sophia to arrange matters for the Supremes of the Mountains and Seas, and kept a few powerful figures to discuss unifying the Multiverse.

Jiang Yuu and his Forbidden Supremes debated how Eastern Paradise Mountain should expand, ultimately choosing Supreme Tu’s cautious plan over Lucifer’s proposal to attack Jun Court immediately. After the meeting, Immortal King Tianyun asked Jiang Yuu to allow fallen immortals and gods to reincarnate in his universe.

• Supreme Tu reported on the conflicts and shifting powers across the Multiverse, then proposed conquering the Eight Wilderness Lands, the Divine Ruins, and eventually Jun Court.

• Immortal King Tianyun asked Jiang Yuu to permit fortunate immortals and gods who had retained their souls after death to reincarnate in Jiang Yuu’s universe.

Immortal King Tianyun proposed the Greater God Plan to support reincarnating immortals and gods, and Jiang Yuu approved it while reminding him of the expedition planned for a hundred years later. After rewarding the expedition’s survivors, Jiang Yuu visited Lionheart on the Feland Continent, where a Knight confronted them for trespassing on her family’s ancestral grounds.

• A radiant Monarch emerged from the Void and told Lionheart that others remembered the hill too.

Jiang Yuu reunited with Lionheart and Sylvair, then tasked them with separating Feland World from Blue Star and preparing to help govern Returning Wilderness. A hundred years later, Jiang Yuu led an army from Paradise Mountain to conquer the Returning Wilderness Lands.

• Sylvair admitted that her mother had sent her to find Lionheart and promised to help him and introduce him to their siblings.

Jiang Yuu arrived in Returning Wilderness with the Eastern Paradise Mountain army and met Elovite, who welcomed him into the Thousand Wilderness Lands. Elovite described the Nine Wildernesses and estimated that 150 of the other lands’ nearly 200 Supremes would submit to Jiang Yuu.

• A Jun Court envoy entered Stone Wilderness’s hall and announced that the Jun Court had united the Central Region several months earlier.

A Jun Court envoy persuaded the Stone Wilderness Supremes to join the Jun Court rather than submit to the Eastern Region, claiming aid was coming and that Yuliel would also join. The Lord of the Stone Wilderness began to agree, but a cold voice interrupted him.

• The Jun Court envoy announced that the Central Region had been unified, then argued that joining the Jun Court would make the Stone Wilderness members of a governing institution rather than subjects of a Monarch.
• The Lord of the Stone Wilderness worried that the Stone Wilderness could not resist the Eastern Region's army, and the envoy claimed the Jun Court would send an army to help.
• The envoy falsely insisted that the Jun Court's forces could arrive soon and said another envoy had gone to Yuliel, who was promised a future seat as Rotating Celestial Emperor.
• The Lord of the Stone Wilderness decided to join the Jun Court, but a cold voice from outside the hall interrupted him, calling the envoy's words nonsense.

Michael of the Eastern Region and Hong Zang of the Jun Court clashed in Stone Wilderness’s great hall as both urged its Supremes to submit. Michael boasted of Yuliel’s power, while Hong Zang warned that the Jun Court outnumbered the Eastern Region; the Stone Wilderness Supremes were left weighing the competing threats.

• Michael answered that Yuliel had once broken through a formation of a thousand Supremes alone and questioned whether the Jun Court’s forces could withstand him.

Michael confronted the Jun Court envoy in Stone Wilderness and pressed its lord to submit to the Eastern Region, claiming the Eastern army had already secured Marsh Wilderness and Ember Wilderness. When the lord tried to delay his decision, Michael attacked the Jun Court envoy, leaving him gravely wounded.

• Michael claimed Jiang Yuu had crushed a thousand Supremes and cited his victory over Duomeng and the forces of the Endless Planes.
• The Jun Court envoy urged the lord of Stone Wilderness to seize Michael and resist the Eastern Region, while Michael warned that the Eastern army was near and said Marsh Wilderness and Ember Wilderness had submitted.

• The Jun Court envoy agreed to stay and promised to seek support from the other wilderness lands, reassuring the lord of Stone Wilderness.
• Michael declared that he would decide for them, then struck the Jun Court envoy with his sword and left him gravely wounded.

• Michael ordered the angels to slaughter the Jun Court delegation outside the great hall while he continued attacking the gravely wounded Jun Court envoy inside.

Michael captured the Jun Court envoy in the Stone Wilderness and continued his mission to recruit the remaining wildernesses, while the Jun Court's envoys arrived in the Eastern Region. The chapter leaves the Frost Dragon arriving as one of the two new envoys, an old acquaintance of Immortal Lord Longevity and Divine Lord Serenity.

• The Lord of the Stone Wilderness joined its Supremes in capturing the Jun Court envoy after the envoy warned that the Jun Court's chief envoy was persuading the other wildernesses to submit.

• The Frost Dragon and the pink-haired female Supreme admired Paradise Mountain but declared that the Jun Court would unify the Multiverse, by force if necessary.
