His presence and breathing terrified the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, where Meng Tianzheng realized the catastrophe had merely been Gu Xian exhaling and inhaling.

• Gu Xian awoke after completing the Dark Gold Starry Sky Behemoth Origin fusion, and the people of Douluo Star and the Divine Realm saw his enormous dragon body.

• Gu Xian’s exhalation tore open the world barrier and threatened the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, but his next inhalation drew the storm back and left Meng Tianzheng wondering if the danger had only been a breath.

Gu Xian’s sleeping dragon tail pierced into the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, where one of its scales appeared as a dark-gold mountain and effortlessly killed a Heavenly God who attacked it. Shi Hao recognized the danger and fled, while the Heavenly Human Clan prepared to retaliate and An Lan divined the next assault on the Imperial Pass.

• Meng Tianzheng told the Supreme Beings that the immense presence beyond the world was only a scale, then ordered the Celestial God Academy sealed off from the chaotic region.
• Gu Xian’s sleeping tail pierced the world barrier, and a scale at its tip fell into Sin Province, where the Ancient Barbarian Tribe worshipped it as a Guardian Spirit.
• Shi Hao encountered the scale while fleeing a Heavenly Human Clan elder, whose full-powered attack vanished against it before its recoil turned him to ash.

A colossal dark-gold scale drifted across the Foreign Realm and the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, shrugging off attacks and destroying the Heavenly Human Clan’s warship when its cannon triggered a recoil. As the great powers declared the area off limits, Liu Shen arrived and began investigating the scale’s origin.

• An Lan struck the dark-gold object with his spear, but the impact bent the weapon and injured his hand; Yu Tuo realized it was only the edge of a scale.
• The Heavenly Human Clan’s warship attacked the dark-gold mountainside where Shi Hao was hiding, and the reflected force destroyed the ship, its elder, and its crew.

• Liu Shen appeared before Shi Hao, studied the dark-gold mountain, and began tracing its origin.

Liu Shen revealed that the dark-gold formation was a scale barb on the sleeping Gu Xian, whose body stretched across star domains and disrupted the Boundary Sea.

• Meng Tianzheng waited beside the immortal pool with an immortal pill fragment as bait, while Little Skyhorned Ant hid nearby and resisted the temptation to take it.

Little Skyhorned Ant discovered that the dark-gold wall was a living creature’s body and nearly destroyed himself trying to break off a barb. After he and the Great Heavenly Horned Ant escaped through the collapsing folded space, the Great Heavenly Horned Ant entrusted his son to Meng Tianzheng and burned his remaining soul to seal the spatial breach.

• The Great Heavenly Horned Ant burned his remaining soul light and charged at the expanding fissure to repair the spatial node.

Meng Tianzheng learned the seal would fail within three months and ordered Celestial God Academy to secretly evacuate its disciples and resources.

• The Great Heavenly Horned Ant's remnant soul merged into the spatial barriers, barely repairing the fissure, and Little Skyhorned Ant collapsed in grief.
• Shi Hao escaped the Heavenly Human Clan's pursuers by entering Sin Province's mist, where a grain of dark gold dust crushed a True God disciple and shattered the elder's Purple-Gold Shield.
• Shi Hao noticed a rhythm in the dust and found a path through it, then discovered a dark gold fragment matching the material of the divine mountain Liu Shen had shown him.

• Meng Tianzheng told Celestial God Academy's elders that the seal would fail within three months and ordered them to disperse the academy's disciples and resources under cover of a secret-realm tournament.

Wang Changsheng discovered that the dark gold pillar piercing the Wang family’s ancestral land was a toenail on the sleeping Gu Xian’s colossal foot. When Gu Xian shifted in his sleep, the movement shattered the family’s formation and ruined much of its foundations, leaving Wang Changsheng to forbid retaliation and face the clan’s helplessness.

• Wang Changsheng ordered the Wang family to seal its gates after learning of a terrifying presence in the chaos, but a tremor revealed that the immortal vein beneath the forbidden rear mountain had stopped flowing.
• Wang Changsheng and the Nine Dragons found a dark gold pillar had pierced the ancestral land and severed the immortal vein, while Wang Da mistook it for a deposit of immortal gold.
• Wang Changsheng sent a Calming Chaos sword embryo up the pillar and discovered it was a toenail on a colossal claw belonging to Gu Xian, whose body lay in the chaos.
• Gu Xian shifted his toes in his sleep, and the toenail shattered the Wang family’s clan-protecting formation, broke the immortal vein, and devastated the ancestral land.

• Wang Changsheng told the grieving clan elder that their attack would only draw the attention of the being whose foot had crushed their foundations.

After a dark gold tail forced the Changsheng Wang Family to abandon its ancestral land, the colossal sleeping creature’s body was discovered spanning the Heavenly Abyss between the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands and the Foreign Realm. Foreign Realm prodigies ignored An Lan’s warning and tried to pry off one of its scales, leaving their fate uncertain.

• Wang Changsheng ordered the Changsheng Wang Family to conceal what had happened and relocate from its ancestral land.
• The Foreign Realm army gathered at the Borderland Imperial Pass, where An Lan and the defenders discovered that a gigantic dark gold tail crossed the Heavenly Abyss.
• An Lan ordered his forces to keep their distance after identifying the tail as part of a sleeping creature unrelated to either realm.
• The tail’s slight movement unleashed a devastating storm that damaged the Imperial Pass defenses and forced the Foreign Realm army to retreat.
• He Ziming, Chi Meng, and three other Foreign Realm prodigies used an Immortal’s Void-Piercing Talisman to reach the tail and attempt to pry loose its flesh with a damaged immortal artifact.

Chi Meng’s strike against the colossal dark gold tail triggered a physical shock wave that devastated the Foreign Realm army and forced five Immortal Kings to join forces to stop it. As the kings ordered a retreat and declared the Heavenly Abyss a forbidden zone, the Chaos began churning as though the immense being were waking.

• Chi Meng’s damaged immortal weapon shattered against the scales, and its recoil obliterated him.
• He Ziming and the other prodigies were swept away when a tiny contraction of the tail sent a shock wave through the Heavenly Abyss and into the Foreign Realm army.
• An Lan and Yu Tuo joined forces to resist the shock wave, then Wu Shang, the Scarlet King, and Kun Di arrived, and all five Immortal Kings struggled to halt it.
• After the shock wave dissipated, Kun Di learned that Chi Meng had tried to pry off a scale and ordered the Foreign Realm army to retreat and the area around the Heavenly Abyss sealed as a forbidden zone.
• The Chaos within the Heavenly Abyss began to churn, and the five Immortal Kings and the surviving soldiers watched in fear as the immense presence seemed to move.

The sleeping Gu Xian’s enormous body and rhythmic breathing began reshaping the laws of Perfect World, leaving Immortal Kings and cultivators unable to use magic or the Great Dao. As the Foreign Realm retreated and the Immortal Domain sealed itself away, Shi Hao realized his cultivation of Taking the Self as the Seed might let him endure the new physical rules.

• The five Immortal Kings recognized the dark gold shadow above them as a belly scale, concluded the beast rested against the Boundary Sea, and ordered the Foreign Realm army to retreat.
• At Imperial Pass, Meng Tianzheng reported that the Celestial God Academy lay over the beast’s torso and that a dark gold nail had destroyed the Changsheng Wang Family’s ancestral defenses, revealing the creature encircled the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
• Ao Sheng and Pan King sensed the beast’s overwhelming vitality, learned it had driven back five Immortal Kings without waking, and Ao Sheng ordered the Immortal Domain sealed.
• Gu Xian continued breathing in his sleep, and the physical pulses from his body began rewriting the world’s laws and dismantling cultivators’ magical power.
• At Imperial Pass, Meng Tianzheng explained that the new physical rules nullified spells, while a commander’s saber crumbled into rust; nearby, a Heavenly God and his disciples lost their powers, and one disciple was battered to death by dark gold motes.
• Shi Hao found that his runes and techniques had failed, but trusted his physical strength and his cultivation of Taking the Self as the Seed.

Shi Hao adapted to the wasteland’s crushing Mass Field and killed the Heavenly Human Clan pursuers, but a dark-gold fragment unleashed a devastating pulse that flattened the region. He escaped and resolved to go to Boundless Heaven, while the old Heavenly Human’s attempt to investigate the transformed wasteland ended in disaster.

• Shi Hao matched his breathing to the Mass Field, ambushed the Heavenly Human Clan pursuers, and killed the True God disciples and their Heavenly God elder.
• A change in the dark-gold fragment intensified the gravity, gathered the dust into a vortex, and released a physical pulse that flattened the wasteland.
• The Heavenly Human Clan’s life tablets shattered, and the old Heavenly Human ordered an investigation after learning that scouts could not enter the sealed wasteland.

• The old Heavenly Human arrived at the glasslike plain, but the array elder’s Heaven-Observing Mirror exploded when he tried to probe it, leaving him blind.

As Gu Xian slept through his bone marrow reconstruction, the waste expelled from his body devastated the Foreign Realm, while his rising body heat threatened the Celestial God Academy. Shi Hao adapted to the spreading physical pulses, but a dark gold fragment began turning to liquid as the academy’s seal melted and Meng Tianzheng ordered an evacuation.

• The Heavenly Human Clan withdrew from Sin Province and declared its outskirts forbidden after its elder witnessed the destruction there.
• Wang Changsheng learned that Meng Tianzheng was secretly evacuating the Celestial God Academy and ordered the Wang Family into secluded cultivation.
• A dark gold drop expelled by sleeping Gu Xian pierced the World Tree, crippling the Foreign Realm and forcing the five Immortal Kings to declare the impact site an eternal forbidden zone.
• Shi Hao endured the physical pulses by strengthening his body, then fled as a dark gold fragment in a nearby pit began melting into liquid metal.
• The heat radiating from Gu Xian’s body melted the Celestial God Academy’s seal, and Meng Tianzheng ordered everyone to retreat.

Liu Shen, Meng Tianzheng, and the realms around them endured devastating heat and physical expansion as Gu Xian’s body completed its marrow restructuring. With the Great Dao and magical power suppressed, the survivors began adapting through physical strength, while a dark-gold sphere settled into the core of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

• Meng Tianzheng evacuated the Celestial God Academy’s core disciples as a dark-gold fragment’s heat melted the academy and destroyed its surroundings.
• Liu Shen anchored the land beneath Stone Village with her branches and endured the heat physically, keeping the village unharmed as the Eight Regions shrank.
• Shi Hao fled as the liquefied dark-gold fragment formed a sphere and sank into the core of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.
• Gu Xian completed his bone marrow restructuring, and his body began expanding by one percent, causing the dark-gold tail at the Borderland Imperial Pass to expand and compress the surrounding space.
• The defenders at the Imperial Pass and the Foreign Realm began quarrying and carrying stone by hand, while Kun Di ordered a wall built to hide the tail from view.
• Wang Changsheng ordered the Wang Family to abandon primordial spirit methods and focus on body cultivation; the dark-gold sphere became the gravitational core of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

While Gu Xian slept through the second stage of his transformation, his accelerating heartbeat and flowing blood shook Perfect World, devastating its inhabitants and realms. Shi Hao adapted to the physical pulses and advanced his body cultivation, but Gu Xian’s discarded waste blood then fell as a meteor and destroyed much of the Borderland Imperial Pass, leaving Meng Tianzheng badly injured at the edge of a deep pit.

• Shi Hao endured the gravitational pulses on the crystal plain, synchronizing his heartbeat with Gu Xian’s and transforming his marrow as he advanced his body cultivation.
• Gu Xian’s heartbeats and the sound of his higher-dimensional blood coursing through him battered the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, the Foreign Realm, and the Immortal Domain, forcing survivors to endure the vibrations through physical means.
• The Changsheng Wang Family’s fleet lost its formations and crashed onto barren stars, so Wang Changsheng ordered the disciples to carry their resources on foot.
• Gu Xian completed his blood replacement and began expelling dark red waste blood, which fell through the broken world barrier as a meteor shower.
• A blood droplet struck the Borderland Imperial Pass, destroying its upper wall and collapsing much of the city as Meng Tianzheng and the old Supremes were hurled into the ruins.
• Meng Tianzheng, with both arms broken, climbed out of the rubble and looked into the enormous, bottomless pit left by the droplet.
