Meanwhile, Emperor Guixu, Yuntian God King, and Wuxin God King entered the Dream Domain and fled after encountering a mysterious black-robed figure whose spiritual will overwhelmed them.

• The three entered the Dream Domain and encountered a black-robed figure whose gaze terrified them into fleeing.

After confirming his repayment conditions were fulfilled, he began organizing the Dao’s branches and their practical uses.

• Hu Yanbo stopped to examine the Dao’s branches and identified their first two as Determine the Effect, Trace the Cause and Reverse Connection Grafting.

Hu Yanbo tested his new Fruit-Cause Dao ability by advancing his understanding of the Great Dao of Destruction, then rejected using his final panel advance to strengthen his will and chose the Life Great Dao instead. He discovered that his deeper grasp of effect-cause had reduced the Life Great Dao advance’s repayment costs, leaving him optimistic about keeping pace with Luo Feng.

• Hu Yanbo used Determine the Effect, Trace the Cause to master the Heaven-Splitting Lineage branch at the Chaos Realm Peak and recognized the repayment cost of confronting destruction origin or killing powerful beings.
