• Yuhuan God King left the team in Dream Domain’s outer region after warning them not to turn back and explaining how they could report discoveries for Myriad Laws Points.

In the Dream Domain’s Stone Forest Gobi Space, Yingxing identified an Illuminating Stone Heart and sent Dongguan to scout nearby regions with his clones. Dongguan explored a fiery desert, investigated the Dream Domain’s influence on his abilities, and began creating clones as fallback points for retrieving anything he found.

• Yingxing finished his calculations and revealed that an Illuminating Stone Heart lay in their space, then assigned Dongguan to explore while the team worked to obtain it.
• Dongguan split off a clone, showing the others a technique that combined the power-transfer convenience of Immeasurable Clone with the flexible power distribution of Life Clone.
• Dongguan’s clone entered the Red Sand Space, examined its unusual burning gravel, and sensed that the region’s influence caused agitation.
• Dongguan tested his independent space-time and found that entering it fully made returning to the Dream Domain difficult, so he planned to use it to store treasures until he could retrieve them safely.
• Dongguan created more clones to serve as fallback points while exploring the Dream Domain.

Yingxing God King led Yunqi, Zheyue, and Dongguan into the Stone Forest Space, where Yunqi defeated a guardian and the group recovered an Illuminating Stone Heart. After dividing the spoils, they searched the ruins and moved on to the Red Sand Space, while Dongguan suspected Yingxing God King's treasure-seeking method carried a hidden cost.

Luo Feng, serving as a Guantian Commerce Guild Inspector in Huyang City, was confronted by God Lord Blood Cloud, who sought a message for Great Sage Guantian about the former God King of Jin.

Dongguan met Sitting Mountain Guest in a secluded space-time and recruited him to help expand Dongguan’s artifact-refining system. Sitting Mountain Guest accepted, and they agreed to establish an organization called the Technology Society, separate from the Guantian Commerce Guild.

• Dongguan gave Sitting Mountain Guest foundational material-standardization knowledge and invited him to gather researchers, while Sitting Mountain Guest chose to focus on the new technological path.

• Marquis Liuyin in Liuyin City wondered why Blood Cloud had contacted him without saying anything.

• Dongguan sealed Marquis Liuyin’s surroundings and demanded that he contact the person behind him.

• Formless Ancestor called for help, but Dongguan severed and dissipated his body before Sky Kun Kingdom Lord arrived.

Dongguan completed the Focus Lineage and investigated how his mental space connected to reality, then began constructing the external branch of his Dao by focusing on the Origin Continent’s Supreme Rule. He successfully connected to that rule and gained the ability to observe distant locations through it, though his view remained narrow and hard to place without precise coordinates.

• Dongguan created the Focus Lineage, earned 10,000 Reward Points, and examined the limits of his mental space through the True Explanation of Comprehension.
• Dongguan decided to save his Reward Points and pursue the external branch of his Dao by observing the Supreme Rule on the Origin Continent.
• In a secluded chamber behind the Rainbow Splendor Sect, Dongguan used the Focus Eye to suppress his senses and refine his connection to the Supreme Rule.
• Dongguan expanded his focused perception across the Origin Continent, causing numerous figures in distant regions to retreat into secluded cultivation.
• Dongguan connected to the Origin Continent’s Supreme Rule and discovered he could shift his gaze to places it covered, although observing any location precisely remained difficult without an avatar or coordinates.

Dongguan reflected on the limits of his divine body and his plans for exploring the Dream Domain, then joined Yunqi, Zheyue, and Yingxing God King after they obtained a rare treasure. The group fled toward the edge of their independent space as a snow tide threatened to erupt.

• Dongguan realized that the problems caused by losing perception had helped refine his divine body, potentially bringing him closer to cultivating Two Transformations.
• Dongguan considered how the Dream Domain’s cooldown on independent space-time prevented him from safely hiding Immeasurable Clones there, and decided to speed up his plans.

• Yingxing God King announced that the group had obtained the rare treasure and warned that a snow tide would likely erupt.
• Dongguan, Yunqi, Zheyue, and Yingxing God King hurried toward the edge of the independent space.

Dongguan and his companions divided the spoils from their raid on the Snow Monsters, including a valuable Xuanming Snow Crystal Lotus, then disbanded their team. Dongguan chose to venture into the Dream Domain’s deep layer alone, while considering how the Two Great Ancient Kingdoms controlled access to the Origin Continent’s treasure lands.

• Dongguan revealed the items stolen from the Snow Monsters, and the group focused on the Xuanming Snow Crystal Lotus.
• Yunqi negotiated for a higher price, and Yingxing God King agreed to pay 300 million Myriad Laws Points for the lotus, split equally among the four.
• Yingxing God King and Zheyue left together, while Dongguan and Yunqi set off alone after the team disbanded.
• Dongguan entered a mountain-forest Dream Domain space and decided to explore the deep layer on his own.
• Dongguan reflected on the Two Great Ancient Kingdoms' control of access to the Dream Domain and other treasure lands.

Dongguan hid in the Dream Domain’s middle reaches, but a battle between Reincarnation Pavilion and Two Realms Palace exposed his presence and tested his independent space-time. As the Palace Master of Two Realms Palace began to break through it, the factions clashed again, giving Dongguan a chance to remain hidden.

• Dongguan explored the Dream Domain and hid in a cliffside dwelling, but falling meteorites from a nearby battle exposed his location.
• Wuxin God King and Emperor Guixu arrived, identified Dongguan as a cultivator who had been tempering himself, and Wuxin God King sensed his nearby independent space-time.
• The Palace Master of Two Realms Palace detected Dongguan and used cause-and-effect and space powers to shake him out of his independent space-time.
• Dongguan used Other Shore to anchor his independent space-time and analyzed the palace master's power, though doing so increased his strain.
• A God King Two Realms Palace fighter engaged Wuxin God King, while Emperor Guixu broke free from the other experts and charged at the Palace Master of Two Realms Palace.

Dongguan, disguised as Heavenly Calamity, escaped the conflict at Two Realms Palace and exchanged Dream Domain intelligence with Wuxin God King and Emperor Guixu. Back in the Myriad Laws Tower Space, he spent twenty million points on the Heavenly Secrets Manual, drawing the Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion’s attention.

• The Palace Master of Two Realms Palace fought Emperor Guixu and ordered his God Kings to help, giving Dongguan time to escape.

• Dongguan reviewed the exchanged intelligence and spent twenty million Myriad Laws Points on the Heavenly Secrets Manual.
• The Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion noticed Dongguan’s purchase and hoped he would choose to practice the manual.

Dongguan studied the Heavenly Secrets Manual and learned that its wish-granting power came at the cost of burning away cause and effect, potentially erasing a person completely. He entered the depths of the Dream Domain, prepared defenses in an independent space-time, and deliberately fell asleep to test its power.

• Dongguan studied the Heavenly Secrets Manual and realized that its greatest techniques could grant wishes by burning cause and effect, with the ultimate cost of vanishing from existence.
• Dongguan entered the depths of the Dream Domain, where its dim, fluctuating power threatened to put him to sleep despite his Ultimate Realm will.

• Dongguan considered using the Three Saints Reincarnation Disk's stored Hunyuan bloodlines to resist the Dream Domain's influence and prepared a defensive field with the Calamity Battle Technique.
• Dongguan carried his defenses into an independent space-time and deliberately fell asleep to experience the Dream Domain firsthand.

As the Primal Universe approached the end of its cycle, Luo Feng and Dongguan waited in its Origin Land to study the great destruction. The universe began to collapse, and Dongguan finally comprehended the last branch of the Life Origin Great Dao.

• Luo Feng and Xu Xin watched the dying stars and discussed the next cycle, with Xu Xin choosing to stay with Luo Feng in the Galaxy Universe.

• Dongguan reflected on the destruction's limits and advantages, then comprehended the final branch of the Life Origin Great Dao.

Dongguan explained to Sitting Mountain Guest that he wanted to use civilization and technology to change Origin Continent’s rigid order, then warned him to reincarnate quickly before dangerous changes began. After Sitting Mountain Guest departed, Dongguan used his Reward Points to obtain the Path of Beginnings as his first Perfect Level inheritance.

• Dongguan established the Technology Society in Liuyin Chaos Prefecture, with Sitting Mountain Guest running it as vice president and producing low-cost one-time secret treasures.
• Sitting Mountain Guest decided to leave the Technology Society and reincarnate, following Luo Feng, Morosa, and the Original Ancestor in leaving their current lives behind.

Dongguan joined the Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion and eight other God Kings in a thorn-filled Dream Domain Space, where outward attacks rebounded on their users. After the master controlled the thorns in a valley, the group searched for the Thorn Heart, while he watched Dongguan’s unusual choice to send out clones instead of using the Heavenly Secrets Manual.

• Dongguan reflected on his earlier Dream Domain visit, his progress in the Myriad Transformation Divine Body, and why the Dream Domain suited his cultivation.
• The Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion brought the group to a valley covered in scales and used rhythmic waves to control the thorn effects.
• The Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion tasked the nine God Kings with finding the Thorn Heart, offering the finder extra Myriad Laws Points and a private Dao session.
• Yingxing God King activated the Heavenly Secrets Manual as the group spread out, while Dongguan sent clones into the thorn worlds to search.
• The Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion noticed Dongguan’s choice and wondered whether he had not practiced the Heavenly Secrets Manual or had altered its cost or effect.

Dongguan found the Thorn Heart by using his knowledge of several origin great daos, while resisting Xin Jing God King's attempt to drive him from a claimed search area. After studying and replicating the treasure in his mental space, Dongguan handed it to the Master of Myriad Laws Pavilion.

• Dongguan used successive clones and insights into the world, cause and effect, and material origin great daos to search the thorn worlds for the Thorn Heart.
• Xin Jing God King blocked Dongguan's route and attacked him with an illusion, but Dongguan's will resisted it and his counterattack knocked Xin Jing God King into a cliff.
