Li Xian ended his seclusion plans after realizing he needed to witness more true Annihilation, then helped arrange funds for his allies and traveled to the Slaying Dragon Sea to investigate a lead connected to Gu Qingxian. There he found a broken immortal sword boasting to Xiao He about its former masters, and Li Xian recognized its familiar manner of speaking.

Li Xian found Lingxu, whose damaged spirituality could not be restored, and chose to let it remain with Tang Ziyan while protecting it from afar. After Xiao He was killed for his outburst, Li Xian left for the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto to cultivate.

• Li Tiangui told Li Xian that Lingxu’s spirituality was badly damaged and unlikely to recover, so Li Xian decided to give it time rather than restore it.
• Tang Ziyan offered Xiao He an Immortal-Forming Pill as compensation for ending their engagement, but he rejected it, repudiated her, and stormed out of the Fire Cloud Sect.
• Elder Chi pursued Xiao He to a secluded valley, killed him, and burned his body, leaving Li Xian surprised that the youth had no hidden strength or means of escape.
• Li Xian placed a protective strand of will in Lingxu as it traveled with Tang Ziyan, then parted from Li Tiangui at an All Heavens Hall.
• Li Xian traveled to the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto and entered its depths to cultivate.

After enduring the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto’s torment, Li Xian entered the Chaos Void and advanced his Wuxian Great Dao by resisting its overwhelming terror. Back in Nine Emperors City, he learned of the Great Luo Immortal Sect’s progress and Li Tiangui’s new instrument, then was asked to use his Dao Lord identity to help rescue a Pioneer in Foreign Races territory.

• Gu Qingxian told Wangshu Sword Master and Lian Ran that Li Xian had obtained the Lord of Kindling’s true inheritance, and Lian Ran proposed seeking Dao Lord Liaoyuan to reclaim its treasures.
• Gu Qingxian declined to join Wangshu and Lian Ran, choosing instead to retreat and pursue the Limitlessness Golden Immortal realm.

• Jueche Immortal Sovereign asked Li Xian to use the concealment of his Dao Lord identity to help an important Pioneer venture into Foreign Races territory for a rescue.

Li Xian accepted a mission to rescue Pioneer Liguang from the Mist Race after the Lord of Creation learned that Li Xian had achieved will annihilation. After reviewing the route and the Mist Race’s defenses, Li Xian decided to enter its territory directly and attempt the rescue without relying on the undercover agent.

• Jueche Immortal Sovereign explained that Pioneer Liguang was being held by the Mist Race and that the Lord of Creation wanted Li Xian to bring him back.
• Li Xian confirmed that his will had reached annihilation, and Li Tiangui and Jueche Immortal Sovereign reacted with surprise before explaining how rare such Dao Lords were.
• Li Xian accepted the mission and learned that he could choose an inheritance or treasure from the Purple Heavens Dao Palace treasury if he rescued Pioneer Liguang.
• Jueche Immortal Sovereign shared information about the Mist Race and introduced Mist Shadow, an undercover agent who provided Li Xian with an entry route and contact points.
• After reaching the border, Li Xian judged that crossing the Red Rock Race would take years and chose instead to teleport directly into Mist Race territory and rush to Pioneer Liguang’s location alone.

Li Xian broke into the Mist Race’s Yearsand Sea Research Base and rescued Pioneer Liguang, who revealed that his research could allow the Human Race to open the River of Time. As they fled with the research, Li Xian fought off Wu Jing, but the Mist Race and Spirit Race prepared to block their escape.

• Bai Chen learned that Li Xian had forced his way into Mist Race territory, and the Mist Race traced his route to the Yearsand Sea Research Base.
• Li Xian reached the base, freed Pioneer Liguang, and helped him retrieve his research from the eastern courtyard despite Elder Han Ying’s attempt to stop them.

• Wu Jing warned that Elder Mi Shi, Elder Wu Kong, the Lord of Mist Profundity, and the Spirit Race’s Myriad Spirits Dao Master were moving to intercept Li Xian.

Li Xian was ambushed at the border by Mist Race elders Mi Shi and Wu Kong, but used his foresight, powerful defenses, and counterattacks to survive their combined assault. He escaped aboard the Immortal Feather Boat, leaving the battle unresolved as he continued toward the Human Race border.

• The Heaven-Deriving Sect learned that Mist Profundity and Myriad Spirits were heading toward the Human Race border and ordered preparations to intercept them.
• Mi Shi ambushed Li Xian, but Li Xian anticipated the attack and struck back with the Heavenly Extreme Sword and Tianyuan Strike, collapsing the space around Mi Shi.
• Wu Kong intervened with a space-time attack that crossed the past, present, and future, but Li Xian weakened it with his sword, Hunyuan Pearl, and Liuli Limitless Body.
• Li Xian used Beyond Reincarnation to evade further attacks and countered Wu Kong with Infinite Void and Tianyuan Strike, forcing him to escape the collapsing space-time.
• Li Xian praised Wu Kong's abilities, declared that they should end the battle, and fled aboard the Immortal Feather Boat.

Li Xian, piloting the Immortal Feather Boat toward human territory, was intercepted by the Myriad Spirits Dao Master, who used his Great Dao to animate and turn Li Xian’s inner-world powers against him. Li Xian survived the assault and escaped through a Void Space node as the Lord of Mist Profundity approached, carrying Pioneer Liguang and crucial information toward human territory.

• Elders Mi Shi and Wu Kong failed to catch Li Xian and recognized that his Immortal Feather Boat and secret arts made him exceptionally difficult to stop.
• The Myriad Spirits Dao Master blocked Li Xian at a miniature Void Space node and declared that he would capture him for ransom.
• The Myriad Spirits Dao Master animated the Great Daos in Li Xian’s world, forcing Li Xian to damage his own world and Great Daos to escape the attacks.
• Li Xian evaded the Myriad Spirits Dao Master’s composite sword strikes, while Pioneer Liguang recognized the attacker’s Great Dao of Myriad Spirits.
• When the Lord of Mist Profundity approached, Li Xian abandoned the fight and headed for the Void Space node.
• Li Xian activated the Immortal Feather Boat and vanished through the node.

At a border fortress, Dao Lord Liaoyuan, Wangshu Sword Master, and Lian Ran plotted to confront Li Xian and reclaim the Lord of Kindling’s inheritance. When Li Xian arrived in the Immortal Feather Boat warning of an attacking Spirit Race Dao Master, Liaoyuan attacked him and was killed instantly.

• Dao Lord Liaoyuan agreed to demand that Li Xian return the Lord of Kindling’s inheritance, with Wangshu Sword Master and Lian Ran backing him.
• Wangshu Sword Master learned that Li Xian had gone to the Mist Race, and the three headed for the All Heavens Hall to pursue him.
• Li Xian burst into the fortress aboard the Immortal Feather Boat and warned a stationed Taiyi Golden Immortal that a Spirit Race Dao Master was attacking.
• Li Xian ordered the All Heavens Hall to activate its teleportation array, but Wangshu Sword Master, Lian Ran, and Liaoyuan intercepted him.
• Liaoyuan attacked Li Xian to reclaim his inheritance, but Li Xian’s Immortal Feather Boat struck him and annihilated his Great Dao, killing him on the spot.

Li Xian returned to the Purple Heavens Dao Palace with his inner world on the verge of collapse after escaping the Myriad Spirits Dao Master and rescuing Pioneer Liguang. In seclusion, he used the destruction of his world to awaken the Heaven-Opening Art, opening a new world and stirring the nine Great Daos across the Purple Heavens Dao Palace.

• Li Xian killed Dao Lord Liaoyuan, left the fortress, and Wangshu Sword Master and Lian Ran learned that he had escaped the Myriad Spirits Dao Master.
• The Lord of Gold and the Profound Void Dao Master returned to the fortress and told Wangshu Sword Master that Li Xian had escaped two foreign Great Powers pursuing him.
• Li Xian reached the Purple Heavens Dao Palace, released Pioneer Liguang, and entered seclusion as his inner world collapsed.
• Pioneer Liguang told the Lord of Creation and Jueche Immortal Sovereign that Li Xian's sacrifice had been worthwhile and urged them to contact the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor and the Half-Saints.
• Li Xian recognized the Heaven-Opening Art within the destruction of his inner world and opened a new world through the Wuxian Great Dao.
• Golden Immortals and powerful beings across the Purple Heavens Dao Palace heard the cry of “Open heaven,” and the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor recognized the Heaven-Opening Art.

Li Xian mastered the Heaven-Opening Art, drawing the attention of three Dao Ancestors, who explained that it gave him the qualifications to pursue the pinnacle of Overlord. He chose to strengthen his foundations and restore his world rather than immediately break through to Dao Master.

• The Heaven-Opening Art’s golden light stirred the Purple Empyrean Dao Academy, and the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor calmed its inhabitants while concealing the phenomena from Li Xian’s Cave Abode.
• The Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor, Void Heaven Dao Ancestor, and Miaoyan Dao Ancestor discussed Li Xian’s mastery, his reincarnation, and the Heaven-Opening Art’s potential as a path to Overlord.
• Li Xian realized that using the Heaven-Opening Art destroyed his world and Great Dao, but that the art could turn an invading Great Dao into nourishment and unleash overwhelming power.
• Li Xian decided not to break through to Dao Master because his will and wuxian great dao remained unrefined, and he prepared to order resources to restore his world.
• The three Dao Ancestors visited Li Xian, and the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor told him that mastering the Heaven-Opening Art qualified him to aspire to the pinnacle of Overlord.

Li Xian learned how the Heaven-Opening Art could make him an Overlord and received extensive support from three Dao Ancestors while choosing to continue his own cultivation path. He purchased World Hearts from the Overlord Treasury, while Wangshu Sword Master lost her position and received a lengthy border sentence for obstructing him.

• Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor explained that Overlords were Dao Masters who could repeatedly unleash one of the Six Overlord Secret Arts without harming themselves.
• Li Xian chose his own cultivation path, and the three Dao Ancestors granted him secret level twenty-seven access, entry to the Overlord Treasury, and thirty million Chaos Crystals.
• Li Xian purchased two World Hearts for restoration and backup, then examined cultivation plans for tempering his Great Dao.
• Wangshu Sword Master considered postponing an apology to Li Xian until he became a Dao Master, but Fuguang Dao Master summoned her to face questioning.
• Lord Xingtian and Fuguang Dao Master stripped Wangshu Sword Master of her position and sword, and her final punishment required ten thousand eras guarding the border and a generous apology gift to Li Xian.

After restoring his world, Li Xian learned that the Human Race might summon the Space-Time River and accepted the apologies of Wangshu Sword Master and Lian Ran. He began tempering his Great Daos with a simulated Chaos Void and decided to let its power invade his internal world to accelerate his cultivation, despite the danger.

• Li Xian reflected on how rebuilding his collapsed world had expanded it, then decided to let his cultivation settle before attempting another costly breakthrough.
• The Lord of Creation told Li Xian that Pioneer Liguang's findings suggested the Human Race could summon the Space-Time River and potentially resurrect Golden Immortals from the past 90,000 Eras.
• The Lord of Creation confirmed Li Xian could claim an item from the treasury and punished Wangshu Sword Master and Lian Ran for obstructing him; they apologized and offered compensation, which Li Xian accepted.
• Li Xian used the chaos source energy and Chaos Crystals to build a controllable simulated Chaos Void and tested its power against his Nine Great Daos.
• Li Xian found that tempering his Great Daos through the formation would take ten eras, so he decided to let the simulated Chaos Void invade his internal world and exploit Three Phases Beget Life to speed up the process.

After completing his cultivation in seclusion, Li Xian agreed to hold a small banquet for his era birthday and used the Virtual Heaven Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao Jade Disc to uncover that the Spirit Treasure Pavilion had disguised stolen treasures. He exposed the evidence publicly, leaving Pavilion Master Chengguang unable to suppress the scandal because his permission level was insufficient.

• Li Xian completed three cycles of world collapse and rebirth, brought his Primordial Unity Limitlessness Great Luo Dao Fruit to its peak, and realized the Heaven-Opening Art could be unleashed in a single breath.
• Nangong Feixu reminded Li Xian that he had lived for 10,800 years, and he agreed to hold a small era-birthday gathering three months later.
• Li Xian found an unidentified black crystal in the Purple Heavens Dao Palace treasury, then used the Virtual Heaven Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao Jade Disc to trace the Heaven-Earth Limitlessness Sword to the former Divine Shadow Sword of Shadowedge Immortal Sovereign.
• Li Xian discovered that High-Grade Xiantian Spirit Treasures entrusted to the War Temple’s Spirit Treasure Pavilion had been illegally borrowed or disguised, and he published evidence implicating at least ten treasures.
• Pavilion Master Chengguang ordered the Void Heaven Palace to erase the revelations, but the palace rejected his request for insufficient permission.

Pavilion Master Chengguang sought Chi You, Master of Arms, to suppress Li Xian’s public accusations, but the Origin-Tracing Hall Master’s attempts to censor Li Xian triggered Protocol Two of the Virtual Heaven Immortal Realm. The chapter ended with both the hall master’s permissions and Chi You’s granted permissions frozen, and Chi You expelled from the realm.

• The Origin-Tracing Hall Master told Pavilion Master Chengguang he could not delete Li Xian’s post, and they suspected Great Truth Dao Master was protecting Li Xian.
• Chengguang asked Chi You, Master of Arms, for help; Chi You demoted him from master of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion and authorized him to remove the negative information.
• Chengguang and the Origin-Tracing Hall Master tried to ban Li Xian, then attempted to sever every account linked to him after the ban failed.
• The Origin-Tracing Hall Master’s operation triggered Protocol Two, revoked his departmental permissions, and froze his personal and granted permissions.
• The Origin-Tracing Hall Master realized Protocol Two concerned the Void Heaven Dao Ancestor, while Chengguang wondered why the hall master had gone offline.
• A rule-level aura froze Chi You’s virtual world and expelled him from the Virtual Heaven Immortal Realm.

After Panwu Dao Ancestor held Chi You accountable for Chengguang’s crimes, Lord Xingtian moved to arrest the Spirit Treasure Pavilion master, but Chengguang escaped and was declared an enemy of the Human Race. The resulting purge spread through several major factions, while Li Xian turned his attention to the Era Birthday Banquet and urged Zhi Weichen to challenge Ling Qiankun.

• Chi You learned that a Dao Ancestor had revoked his Virtual Heaven Immortal Realm access, and Fuguang Dao Master warned him that Li Xian had the favor of Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor.
• Panwu Dao Ancestor ordered Chi You to forge twenty-three Immortal Swords in the Sword Furnace for ten thousand epochs, leaving him unable to protect Chengguang.
• Lord Xingtian accused Chengguang of arranging Golden Immortals’ deaths to obtain their spirit treasures, and Chengguang pretended to cooperate before escaping through a prepared formation.
• Lord Xingtian stripped Chengguang of his standing as a Human and ordered the detention and investigation of his associates, triggering a sweeping purge across the War Temple and other factions.
• Li Xian read the reports of the purge, considered the escaped Chengguang a possible future threat, and asked Zhi Weichen when she would challenge Ling Qiankun.
• Zhi Weichen agreed to challenge Ling Qiankun at once and said she would recruit Tianyun and others to compete as well.

Li Xian’s Era Birthday Banquet drew far more guests than he expected, as powerful figures sought to honor the newly renowned Dao Lord. The banquet reached a new height when a representative of the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor arrived with a World Heart for Li Xian.

• Visitors crowded Nine Emperors City for Li Xian’s Era Birthday Banquet, hoping to befriend the future Dao Master.
• Members of the Great Luo Immortal Sect and Xuanjun Immortal King were stunned as representatives of Immortal Sovereigns presented gifts but did not enter the banquet.

• A representative of Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor presented Li Xian with a World Heart and wished him an auspicious era birthday.

At Li Xian’s Era Birthday Banquet, Gu Qingxian challenged him after announcing her breakthrough to Limitlessness Golden Immortal, but he effortlessly blocked her attacks and sent her away. As Li Xian learned about the powerful Dao Lords of the Heaven’s Mandate Cult, Lu Linyuan arrived with news that another Void Tide had appeared outside their world.

• The Buried Sword Immortal Sovereign attended Li Xian’s banquet on behalf of the Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor and warned him to avoid traveling while the Human Race prepared for major repercussions.
• Gu Qingxian arrived to announce that she had become a Limitlessness Golden Immortal and claimed she had surpassed Li Xian.
• Li Xian challenged Gu Qingxian to attack him without letting power leak, then blocked her repeated strikes with a finger and drove her back.
• Gu Qingxian withdrew after Li Xian dismissed her strength, while the Buried Sword Immortal Sovereign and Dao Lord Taia recognized Li Xian’s power as that of a top-tier Golden Immortal.
• Dao Lord Taia described the powerful special lifeforms among the Heaven’s Mandate Cult’s top Dao Lords, and Lu Linyuan reported that another Void Tide had appeared outside their world.

Li Xian agreed to descend to the True Immortal Great World to deal with the Void Tide, then discovered that the God Clan’s Fallen Holy Hall had engineered the crisis as a trap to assassinate him. After identifying Gu Yuan God Lord as the one behind the plot, Li Xian destroyed the conspirators’ token and continued into the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto.

• Li Xian agreed to help Lu Linyuan save the True Immortal Great World from the Void Tide, while Zhi Weichen invited him to watch her challenge Ling Qiankun and received his promise to entrust her with the Immortal Emperor position if she won.
• The Era Birthday Banquet ended, and the Human Race recognized Li Xian as a top Golden Immortal with the potential to become a Dao Master.
• Li Xian traveled to the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto, where he detected a hidden will inside Pixiu Immortal King and froze it along with the Immortal King’s consciousness.
• Li Xian discovered that Pixiu Immortal King had been controlled by the God Clan’s Fallen Holy Hall, which had planned to lure him to the True Immortal Great World and ambush him.
• Li Xian learned that Gu Yuan God Lord had stirred up the Void Tide, crushed Pixiu Immortal King’s communication token, erased his consciousness, and proceeded deeper into the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto.

Li Xian returned to the True Immortal Great World and was ambushed by Gu Yuan God Lord, Jieyuan God Lord, and Newborn God Lord, who used the Creation World to try to kill him. He unleashed the Heaven-Opening Art and annihilated and reshaped all three God Clan Overlords, leaving the starry expanse still.

• Newborn God Lord learned that Li Xian had entered the Black Heaven Chaos Grotto, and he, Jieyuan God Lord, and Prophecy God Lord decided to intercept him with Gu Yuan God Lord and the Creation World.
• Li Xian crossed the Void Tide and reached the True Immortal Great World, where he discovered Gu Yuan God Lord, Jieyuan God Lord, and Newborn God Lord waiting to ambush him.
• The three God Lords attacked Li Xian, while Gu Yuan God Lord threatened the True Immortal Great World and Newborn God Lord deployed the Creation World.
• Li Xian warned the three God Lords that they had one breath to kill him, then unleashed the Heaven-Opening Art as his world collapsed.
• The Heaven-Opening Art engulfed the three God Lords, annihilating and reshaping their consciousnesses, bodies, and Great Dao rules.

Li Xian survived World Collapse, used the Heaven-Opening Art to defeat the God Lords, and created a wondrous gray crystal. After evacuating the True Immortal Great World's inhabitants, he destroyed the world and confronted the lingering flaw in his will, leaving his past life behind as the two versions of himself fused into one.

• Li Xian halted the consequences of World Collapse, reshaped the battlefield with the Heaven-Opening Art, and collected the gray crystal left behind.
• Li Xian gave Mo Xingzhou three world rings and ordered the factions of the True Immortal Great World to evacuate the inhabitants of its eastern, central, and western continents.
• After a year, Li Xian collected the world rings and destroyed the True Immortal Great World with Heavenly Extreme Sword qi.
• Li Xian realized his attachment to the True Immortal Great World and his hope of returning to Blue Star had kept his will from reaching seamless oneness.
• Li Xian declared that he was both the Li Xian of his previous life and the Li Xian of this world, and the two fused into one.

After unifying his will, Li Xian returned to Nine Emperors City, arranged for the True Immortal Great World’s survivors, and ordered Yao Xuan to gather intelligence on the God Clan’s Supreme Stairway. As he resumed cultivation, the God Clan’s Qingzhuo Lord vowed to avenge his junior brother, while news of a tournament to select a God Emperor gave Li Xian a chance to target the Supreme Stairway’s leading God Kings.

• Li Xian attained Perfect Oneness of will, returned to the Immortal Realm, and gave Lu Linyuan three world rings containing the True Immortal Great World’s survivors to settle.
• Li Xian instructed Yao Xuan to investigate the Supreme Stairway’s peerless God Kings, gave him a Gray Crystal to auction, and authorized him with level-twenty-seven permissions.
• Qingzhuo Lord and Prophecy God Lord examined the ruined starfield, and Qingzhuo Lord blamed the failed ambush for the deaths of Xinsheng, Gu Yuan, and Jieyuan before vowing to kill Li Xian himself.
• Li Xian’s world recovered within a hundred years, and Deep Blue reported that Ling Qiankun had accepted Zhi Weichen’s challenge and that the God Clan had lost ground to Lingyi.
• Deep Blue told Li Xian that the Supreme Stairway’s council would hold a tournament to choose a God King to cultivate as God Emperor, and Li Xian realized its leading contestants would gather there.

Li Xian learned that a major God Clan battle would take place at the Endless Divine Mountain in 103 years, then met the Great Truth Dao Master and confirmed that he had killed three God Clan Overlords. She explained the Dao Ancestors’ balance of power and warned that a universe-wide war could eventually leave only one voice ruling the Immortal Realm and Endless Starry Sky.

• Deep Blue told Li Xian that the God Clan’s Supreme Stairway battle would begin in 103 years at the Nine-Person Council’s hall in the Endless Divine Mountain, and Li Xian ordered him to gather detailed information about the location.
• Li Xian went to meet the Great Truth Dao Master, who questioned whether he had broken through and asked how he had gained such high permissions.
• The Great Truth Dao Master told Li Xian that the Human Race had fifty-four Dao Masters and doubted that he could become an Overlord, but reconsidered after hearing that Void Heaven Dao Ancestor had raised his permissions.
• Li Xian confirmed that he had killed Jieyuan, Gu Yuan, and Xinsheng, and the Great Truth Dao Master attributed his power to Kindling’s legacy.
• The Great Truth Dao Master explained how Dao Ancestors controlled the Three Thousand Great Daos and guarded against one another merging with the Forty-Nine Origin Great Daos.
• The Great Truth Dao Master warned Li Xian that a future war could let one Dao Ancestor become a universe origin and leave the Immortal Realm and Endless Starry Sky under a single voice.

Li Xian prepared to attack the God Clan’s Supreme Stairway gathering at Endless Divine Mountain, buying a treasure that could trap even Top-Tier Overlords. As the God Emperor competition began with the Remains God King and Fateweaving God King facing off, the Oath God King spotted a human above the arena.

• The Great Truth Dao Master explained the political pressures surrounding Dao Ancestor positions and Great Powers, then scolded her disciples for progressing too slowly compared with Li Xian.
• Li Xian honed his Wuxian Great Dao with his Primordial Unity Limitlessness Great Luo Dao Fruit, then received intelligence from Immortal Sovereign Yao Xuan about the dangers awaiting him at Endless Divine Mountain.

As his world collapsed under their assault, a golden light emerged with a devastating roar, leaving the outcome of his counterattack unresolved.

• Li Xian appeared above the gathering and activated the Great Thousand World, spreading its orange glow across Endless Divine Mountain.

• Lone Star God Lord attacked with a dark star, but Li Xian's Glazed Treasure Light weakened it, and Prophecy God Lord's soul attack had no effect.
• The God Clan Overlords joined the siege as Li Xian's world collapsed, then a golden light emerged and a roar declared, “World-Opening!”

Li Xian unleashed the Heaven-Opening Art at Endless Divine Mountain, annihilating the gathered God Clan Overlords and God Kings before escaping back to Human Race territory. As the God Clan prepared to retaliate and Human Race Dao Ancestors debated Li Xian’s future, he returned to Nine Emperors City and began developing a new secret art while awaiting Zhi Weichen and Ling Qiankun’s decisive battle.

• Li Xian used the Heaven-Opening Art to overwhelm and destroy the God Clan forces at Endless Divine Mountain, then escaped through a prepared teleportation array as the God Clan’s Great Powers arrived too late to catch him.
• The God Clan Great Powers blamed the Human Race and mobilized to attack through the Tianfeng Valley Battlefield, while Panwu Dao Ancestor and the other Human Race leaders prepared a counterforce with hidden Dao Masters.
• Panwu Dao Ancestor urged Purple Heavens Dao Ancestor and Miaoyan Dao Ancestor to let Li Xian pursue an opportunity to advance, but they postponed the decision until the God Clan invasion was dealt with.
• Li Xian returned to Nine Emperors City, reflected on the distance between his rapid cultivation and ordinary immortals, and researched the limits of will beyond Perfect Oneness.
• Li Xian used his remaining World Heart to restore his collapsed world and began studying the Heaven-Opening Art and other secret arts to create a new Wuxian technique before Zhi Weichen and Ling Qiankun’s decisive battle.
