• Qin Wuyue gathered Great Xia powerhouses in the Land of Order and learned that Qin Feng had cleared the third stage with a score more than a hundred times higher than second place.
• Qin Wuyue welcomed Qin Feng’s rising strength as a potential advantage, since she had reached a preliminary agreement with the Temple Master of the Cycle Shrine to oppose him.

Qin Wuyue prepared to influence Qin Feng’s arrival in the Land of Order and prevent him from recovering his past memories, while the Land of Order’s factions made their own preparations. Death Soul Song was ordered to investigate the Blue Star genius and any past offenses against Great Xia players.

• Qin Wuyue reasoned that Qin Feng would eventually have to leave Blue Star, where the Land of Order’s factions could befriend, suppress, or assassinate him.
• Qin Wuyue planned to keep Qin Feng from visiting the Cycle Shrine and recovering his memories, and she prepared a recording of an earlier conflict with the shrine.
• Qin Wuyue recalled that she had once helped Qin Feng before planning to kill him and Qin Xiaoyou during Blue Star’s ascension.
• The temples investigated whether they had previously offended Great Xia players as the Land of Order braced for Qin Feng’s arrival.
• Death Soul Song received orders from the Undead Temple’s Temple Master to investigate the Blue Star genius and prepare a response, so he began checking for past offenses against Great Xia players.

Death Soul Song assumed other temples would suppress Qin Feng and resolved to keep targeting him, while Qin Feng headed for the High-Tier Divine Authority Tower. There, a Blue Sea Jellyfish captured Miracle Walker and five other Great Xia players as bait for Dark Shadow, convinced by Great Cold Country players that Qin Feng was weak.

• Death Soul Song reasoned that temples would obstruct the Illusory Dream Temple's rise and decided he could quietly pursue his plans against his younger sister.
• Qin Feng finished the Path of Finality and traveled toward the High-Tier Divine Authority Tower in the Great Cold Country.
• A Blue Sea Jellyfish captured Miracle Walker and five other members of Great Xia's legendary squad during their advanced challenge.
• Lao San de Lao Er Lao Da Le warned the jellyfish that Dark Shadow would defeat it and claimed Qin Feng had given away over a hundred sets of Legendary Tier equipment.
• The jellyfish dismissed the captives' claims and explained that Great Cold Country players had described Dark Shadow as weak and said Yue could handle him.

Qin Feng entered the High-Tier Divine Authority Tower to confront the jellyfish NPC, which had trapped six Great Xia players and seemed to be targeting him. Despite its powerful Orders and water-based invincibility, Qin Feng overwhelmed it with his Divinity and emptied its health bar in one strike.

• Miracle Walker and the other Great Xia players realized the jellyfish had tricked them into accepting its advanced challenge by claiming Great Cold Country players had completed it.
• Qin Feng learned from Verzhini and White Bud that the jellyfish might be an exiled nonhuman NPC tasked with obstructing human civilization’s ascension, though Qin Feng suspected it was targeting him.
• Qin Feng entered the tower invisibly and found the six Great Xia players bound to its walls beneath the jellyfish NPC.

• Qin Feng killed Maurus Orb, causing the seawater and tentacles inside the tower to vanish and freeing the six Great Xia players.
• Qin Feng told the six players to return, then used a Teleportation Stone to go back to the Evil Spirit Academy.
• Qin Feng returned to the Judgment Grounds and released Osilio to assess what he could gain from passing Judgment on Maurus Orb.
• Great Cold Country players opened the tower, learned its NPC had been slain, and blamed Maurus Orb while praising the Moon Goddess.
• Qin Feng saw Maurus Orb’s round eyes staring blankly around the White Jade Maze, apparently still bewildered by his sudden death.

Qin Feng learned from Blue Sea Jellyfish · Maurus Orb's memories that the Blue Sea Civilization had sent jellyfish into Cycle Civilizations to obstruct human ascensions, possibly under orders from Highest Heaven. After Osilio failed to get useful information from Maurus Orb, Qin Feng prepared to judge it and awaited the rewards.

• Lingche suggested that the jellyfish's actions might follow orders from a higher level, possibly Highest Heaven.
• Osilio's threats yielded no useful information, so Qin Feng subjected Maurus Orb to Judgment and wondered how much Divinity Limit its seventeen Self-Owned Orders would grant.

Qin Feng judged the Blue Sea Jellyfish and gained a major increase to the Blade of Judgment’s divinity limit and attributes. In Jinling, he evolved Agility Training, Constitution Training, and Blessing of the Lightning Fairy, whose new Thunder of Divine Speed effect granted stacking movement speed for each skill used.

• Qin Feng sent the Blue Sea Jellyfish into the Dark Space for judgment, showing no sympathy for the jellyfish’s past attacks on human players.

Qin Feng boosted his speed and evolved Goddess of Death's Mercy, gaining a powerful attribute-reduction effect while considering how quickly he needed to develop his skills. Meanwhile, Black Plum Big Li chased an Ice Fish into a strange underwater mist and found a marker that she recognized as belonging to the Goddess of Love's tomb.

• Qin Feng calculated that his stacked movement speed, combined with Gui Ling's Lone Wolf Action order, let him fly at nearly 140 times the speed of sound.
• Qin Feng spent 529,000 evolution points to raise Goddess of Death's Mercy to Old-Day Tier, giving its poison a 60% reduction to all the target's attributes.
• Qin Feng reflected that his skill accumulation was growing faster than that of most Land of Order powerhouses, but he wanted to develop several skills and abilities at once.

• Black Plum Big Li opened her chat with Dark Shadow.

• Qin Feng warned Lin Liyu to return because the tomb might be dangerous, then turned to the carved stone and its rune-shaped recess.

Lin Liyu found the Goddess of Love’s tomb and informed Late Night, Light Rain, while Qin Feng used the three Extreme Love Runes to enter its hidden space. There, Minasi explained that Qin Feng had to damage a test stele to qualify for the Goddess of Love’s cycle challenge.

• Lin Liyu left the deep sea area and told Late Night, Light Rain that the Goddess of Love’s tomb had been found.
• Qin Feng placed all three Extreme Love Runes on the white fish design, which opened a teleportation array.
• Qin Feng entered an independent space and met Minasi, a winged believer and Extreme Love Bishop devoted to Ileinasi.
• Minasi explained that Qin Feng had to attack the test stele, with his damage determining his reward and eligibility for the cycle challenge.
• Qin Feng inspected the stele’s formidable defenses and realized the challenge suited his strength.

Qin Feng questioned Winged Person Bishop Minasi about the damage test for Ileinasi’s Cycle challenge and learned how much damage was needed to qualify and claim every reward. He struck the test tablet for 172.49 billion damage, stunning Minasi, and prepared to ask about its healing and tanking tests.

• Qin Feng inspected the test tablet and realized it had hidden attributes for healing and tanking tests as well as damage output.
• Minasi told Qin Feng that he needed to deal ten times the tablet’s Damage Block to enter Ileinasi’s Cycle challenge and ten thousand times it to claim all damage-test rewards.
• Qin Feng asked whether he could also attempt the healing and damage-tanking tests, and Minasi said he first had to claim all the damage-test rewards.
• Qin Feng enlarged the White Bud Blade, activated Blood Cry, and struck the tablet with Annihilation Blade for 172.49 billion damage.
• Minasi froze after seeing Qin Feng’s hit exceed the tablet’s Damage Block by eighty-six thousand times.

Qin Feng earned the full reward in the damage test and then demonstrated overwhelming healing in the healing test. As the test approached its hundredth second, the stele remained full, while Minasi wondered whether he could also pass the final damage-tanking test.

• Qin Feng dealt enough damage with two skills to earn the full damage-test reward, leaving Minasi astonished.
• Minasi explained the healing and damage-tanking test rules, including the multiplied rewards and the risk of losing eligibility if Qin Feng died.
• Qin Feng cast Abyss Wither Curse on himself to reduce his attacks and make his skills heal the test stele.
• Qin Feng used Demon Shadow Blades to restore the stele’s durability, maintaining a perfect score despite increasingly severe healing penalties.
• Minasi watched Qin Feng’s healing overwhelm the stele’s losses and questioned whether he could also excel at the damage-tanking test.
