Xiao Tian killed Meidifu and learned that the Heavenly Dao had gone into hiding, but he could not find it and returned to the Primordial. There, he heard that the Primordial's inhabitants were clones and that powerful figures were beginning to investigate the truth behind Chaos.

• Xiao Tian killed Meidifu with the Adamantine Staff, and Heladisi revealed that the Heavenly Dao had gone to undergo a tribulation on the planet where they had met.
• Xiao Tian searched Earth Star for the Heavenly Dao, left a clone behind to monitor the planet, and returned to the Primordial with Li Daofan.

• Xiao Tian shared the clone revelation in the Eternal Chaos Chat Group, where Heavenly Emperor Ye dismissed it before secretly gathering others to investigate, beginning with Aqua Blue Star.

After ten million years of seclusion, Xiao Tian emerged and learned that the Primordial’s balance had shifted as several Sages departed. He descended to investigate the Azure Heaven Gate, whose master had surrounded Five Manors Temple and threatened to destroy it while Great Immortal Zhenyuan was away.

• Nüwa and Houtu told Xiao Tian that Haotian, Yaochi, and other Sages had left, leaving the Heavenly Court and the Four Great Continents in turmoil.

• With Great Immortal Zhenyuan absent, Li Hui prepared to raze Five Manors Temple as his followers shouted their support.

Xiao Tian watched as Li Hui’s assault on Five Manors Temple’s Primordial Unity Immortal Formation repeatedly failed, then saw Li Hui use a Deva Path Supreme Treasure to break through it. Zhenyuanzi’s Ginseng Fruit Tree restored the formation and shielded the temple, leaving Li Hui furious and vowing to fight Zhenyuanzi to the death.

• Xiao Tian watched Azure Heaven Gate’s three-day assault fail to break Five Manors Temple’s formation and gained points when Li Hui suffered a setback.
• Li Hui brought out an Innate Supreme Treasure, but five days of attacks still failed to breach the formation, and his system offered him a choice between persisting or withdrawing.
• Li Hui chose to keep fighting and used the Scarlet Flame War Flute to empower his Ancestral Dragon Twin Swords, breaking through the formation and sending divine dragons toward the temple.
• Zhenyuanzi’s Ginseng Fruit Tree blocked the divine dragons and restored the formation, protecting Xiuxin and the other disciples.
• Li Hui blamed Zhenyuanzi for humiliating him and swore there could be no peace between them until one of them died.

Li Hui chose to retreat from Five Manors Temple after the system offered him Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens as a Dao companion, but she rejected his claim and attacked him. After the system’s summon transported him away, Li Hui learned he could raise a sapling version of Mysterious Maiden and chose that path, while Xiao Tian watched.

• The system offered Li Hui the choice to raise a sapling identified as Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens or return to his original world, and he chose to raise the sapling after seeing a vision of her grown form.

Xiao Tian altered Li Hui’s system rewards, then explained how to care for the Innate Spirit Root destined to become Li Hui’s Dao companion. He later settled the Azure Heaven Gate’s dispute with the Five Manors Temple and invited Houtu and the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens to tour the Primordial with him.

• Xiao Tian asked Houtu to accompany him and the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens on a tour of the Primordial.

Xiao Tian appointed the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens as Heavenly Court Empress and ordered her to rule amid a challenge from the Sages.

The Mysterious Maiden accepted Jade Rabbit’s presence, and Xiao Tian exposed a cursed invitation from Li Jing as the struggle over the Heavenly Court continued.

• Great Emperor Zhenwu entered the Hall of High Heavens and pledged his personal support to the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens, leaving her wary of the political consequences.
• Xiao Tian offered Chang'e a way to leave the Supreme Yin Star in exchange for tending rabbits for one Great Tribulation, then Chang'e realized the promised tribulation might never come.

• Xiao Tian secretly resolved to use the Mysterious Maiden to purge Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao’s hidden forces in the Heavenly Court.
• Xiao Tian seized Li Jing’s invitation and tore it apart, dissipating its curse before the Mysterious Maiden could stop him.

Li Jing challenged the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens to abdicate, but Chang'e left Tai Y Star to rescue Xiao Tian and forced Li Jing to retreat. Xiao Tian then wandered through the Heavenly Court and arrived at Yang Jian’s manor, where Yang Jian’s unusually gentle manner struck him as suspicious.

• Li Jing demanded that the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens abdicate and claimed most of the Heavenly Court supported him.

• Yang Jian welcomed Xiao Tian with a warm smile and offers of food, leaving Xiao Tian convinced that something was off about him.

Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian entered Yang Jian’s residence by pretending to carry a message from Chang'e, then searched the grounds while Yang Jian eagerly prepared for a promised visit.

• Boss Kang entertained Xiao Tian with a slide and fishing, then brought him to the residence’s storehouse.
• Xiao Tian searched Yang Jian’s collection, found an ancient box with no record in the Primordial world, and took it into the Kamui Dimension.
• Xiao Tian smashed the box with his Adamantine Staff, releasing a bizarre substance that rapidly consumed space and the energy of heaven and earth.

Xiao Tian cast Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao’s bizarre substance into Chaos, forcing the Primordial to flee before it could be destroyed. After learning Yang Jian had kept a box containing the substance unopened, Xiao Tian blamed Lingbao and found that more of the substance remained in the Peach Garden, where his Moon Rabbit disguise started a massive fight with the Figure Spirit Clan.

• Xiao Tian severed part of the Kamui Dimension and cast the bizarre substance into Chaos, where it devoured everything around it and created a vast abyss.
• Xiao Tian migrated the Primordial through Chaos and told the gathered Sages they were moving because their neighbors were too weak; Yang Jian volunteered for the coming conflict.

• Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian defeated the Figure Spirit Clan’s Quasi-Sage guards and continued fighting as the clan swarmed out, while the Heavenly Court’s Sages reacted to the escalating brawl.
• Nüwa and Houtu asked Xiao Tian whether they should intervene, but he watched the fight and let the Figure Spirit Clan’s three Sages leave the rabbit alone as a whetstone for their people.

Xiao Tian’s clone wreaked havoc in the Peach Garden while the Figure Spirit Clan secretly used the invasion to train its clansmen and profit from selling intelligence. Yang Jian went to seek help for the rabbit, but learned the Deva Path and Chang'e would not interfere, leaving him convinced the rabbit was doomed.

• Xiao Tian’s clone fought through the Figure Spirit Clan’s forces, prompting the clan to launch a massive encirclement while its members sold exaggerated reports to Heavenly Court scouts.

• Yang Jian asked the Chaos Demonic Hou to let him into the Heavenly Dao Palace and sought help from Houtu and Nüwa.
• Nüwa told Yang Jian that the Deva Path knew about the invasion and had ordered him and Chang'e not to interfere; Yang Jian left in grief, believing the rabbit was doomed.
• Xiao Tian watched Yang Jian leave and laughed at his tears, then worried that his clone’s situation in the Peach Garden had become troublesome.

• Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao told Xiao Tian that Samsara would consume Chaos, erase those who failed to transcend it, and select three thousand real living beings for the next cycle; Lingbao called Xiao Tian the least worthy among them and vanished.

Xiao Tian advanced to First Heaven, obtained the Undying Dao Palace, and searched his world for a suitable Dao attainer to accelerate his cultivation. He chose Leng Changsheng, a powerful but arrogant young man in a martial world, and confronted him while disguised as the ruler of the Misty Cloud Kingdom.

• Xiao Tian advanced after the Undying Deva Path protected the Primordial World, and the world’s laws and structure changed as ordinary Sages lost much of their former power.
• Xiao Tian examined the Undying Dao Palace, learned it could preserve imprints and boost his cultivation, and began searching for its first Dao attainer.
• After a month of screening, Xiao Tian selected Leng Changsheng, the chief steward of the Martial Emperor Palace in a world without spiritual energy.
• Xiao Tian entered that world disguised as the ruler of the Misty Cloud Kingdom and arrived with his delegation at Martial Emperor Mountain for Yun Qinian’s birthday.
• Leng Changsheng struck Helian Ba and another martial expert while boasting of his strength, then ordered Xiao Tian’s delegation to wait outside for half an hour.
• Xiao Tian smiled at Leng Changsheng and told him that he was not from that world.

Xiao Tian revealed Leng Changsheng’s origins and offered him a path to Heaven Beyond Heaven, but Leng chose to remain with the Martial Emperor Palace. Xiao Tian returned to the Heavenly Dao Palace and, after a hundred thousand years of searching for recruits among migrating Chaos worlds, encountered a Yomi Immortal Sect ship demanding a toll.

• Xiao Tian defeated Leng Changsheng, revealed that the Martial Emperor had found him as an infant at Severed Dragon Ravine, and told him he came from Heaven Beyond Heaven.
• Leng Changsheng refused to leave, and the Martial Emperor Palace’s elders rallied to protect him; Xiao Tian restored the Martial Emperor’s youth with an immortal pill and gave the martial artists cultivation manuals.
• Xiao Tian gave Leng Changsheng an Undying Deva Path token and urged him to follow three rules, then ascended away as Leng refined the token and joined the Undying Dao Palace of his own accord.
• Xiao Tian searched for recruits among migrating Chaos worlds for a hundred thousand years, but the other Heavenly Daos refused to cooperate.
• Xiao Tian detected a gigantic flying ship whose Yomi Immortal Sect disciples demanded tolls or resources from the migrating Chaos worlds and threatened to destroy them otherwise.

Xiao Tian contacted Langya Tian, the Yomi Immortal Sect’s Holy Son, to stop the sect from extorting Primordial as the strange substance closed in. Ximen Kuang summoned three Deva Paths named Primordial to identify Xiao Tian, but the chapter ended before Xiao Tian answered.

• Ximen Kuang destroyed a high-grade chaos plane and demanded tolls from the chaos planes trying to pass, while Xiao Tian judged that he could not challenge the Yomi Immortal Sect directly.
• Xiao Tian privately contacted Langya Tian, who ordered Ximen Kuang to find Primordial and let its Deva Path pass after a test against a Self Severing Realm disciple.
• Ximen Kuang searched the nearby chaos planes for Primordial, ordered the warship to retreat from the approaching strange substance, and invited three matching Deva Paths aboard.
• Ximen Kuang demanded two-thirds of the resources from the ugly Deva Path after its boast failed to impress him.
• Ximen Kuang examined Xiao Tian, recognized him as an acquired Deva Path, and told him to think carefully before speaking.

Xiao Tian instantly killed the azure-robed elder on the Yomi Immortal Sect’s life-and-death platform, then left with Ximen Kuang’s gifts and returned to the Primordial Chaos Plane. As the Eternal Chaos group warned that the Great Reckoning had begun, Xiao Tian started the Primordial Hongmeng Plan on Blue Star, where his clone joined Chu Feng just as a highway collapsed.

• Xiao Tian split off a primordial spirit clone for the Primordial Hongmeng Plan, and the clone arrived on Blue Star with an ultimate mission to help Chu Feng break out and slaughter Saints.
• Xiao Tian’s clone joined Chu Feng as a fellow traveler, and a highway suddenly collapsed ahead of them.

As the world underwent a catastrophic mutation, Xiao Tian and Chu Feng traveled toward Chu Feng’s uncle’s home, surviving a mutated bird and learning that the upheaval was spreading everywhere. Beyond Blue Star, Chaos’s directors gathered to advance the Primordial Hongmeng Plan and prepare for the approaching Great Reckoning.

• The ground split, mountains expanded, and enormous vines covered the sky, forcing Xiao Tian and Chu Feng to flee south and detour toward Chu Feng’s uncle’s home.
• Xiao Tian and Chu Feng spent the night in an abandoned house, where a pager broadcast pleas for help and reports of monsters and widespread mutations.
• The pair continued through ruined settlements and killed a mutated bird that nearly attacked Chu Feng, then realized they felt stronger and less hungry than before.

• The directors resolved to help the ancient object from the Gate of Eternity grow into a stronger existence and ordered that anyone disrupting their arrangements be suppressed and killed.

Chu Feng and Xiao Tian reached Chu Feng’s uncle’s village, killed a mountain wolf, and rescued Zhou Quan, the village’s lone known survivor. After a broadcast introduced Evolvers and the global crisis, Chu Feng retrieved a box of sprouted seeds and an unusually powerful bow from his ancestral home, while Xiao Tian’s full-map cheat detected a red dot approaching the village.

• Chu Feng and Xiao Tian found Chu Feng’s uncle’s house deserted and killed the mountain wolf that lunged at them through the iron door.

• The three watched a C Channel broadcast reporting global mutations, damaged satellites, and human Evolvers with abilities.
• Chu Feng split from Xiao Tian and Zhou Quan to retrieve his uncle’s requested item, finding sprouted seeds and an old bow he could barely draw.
• While Xiao Tian gathered food with Zhou Quan, his full-map cheat showed a red dot approaching the village.

Xiao Tian, Zhou Quan, and Chu Feng watched a tiger spirit devour a wolf monster in the village and discussed how to fight it. The tiger wandered deeper into the village toward Uncle Old Yang's house, and Chu Feng handed his ancestral bow to Xiao Tian to test.

• Xiao Tian noticed a red dot approaching Chu Feng's location, and he and Zhou Quan hurried back after storing their gathered supplies.
• Chu Feng heard a monster gnawing on the wolf at his ancestral home and cautiously left through the back door while Xiao Tian and Zhou Quan watched from a nearby house.

• Chu Feng joined Xiao Tian and Zhou Quan, and the three discussed using Chu Feng's family bow and seeking custom-made arrows from Uncle Old Yang's blacksmith family.
• After the tiger finished eating, the three saw it head deeper into the village toward Uncle Old Yang's house, and Chu Feng gave Xiao Tian the bow to try drawing.

Xiao Tian awakened Transcendent Archery through Chu Feng’s heirloom Xuanyuan Bow and used improvised projectiles to wound an Awakening Realm tiger. After fleeing the tiger and hiding from armed strangers, the trio watched the beast attack them, and Xiao Tian landed another painful shot using a fountain pen coated in canned herring.

• Xiao Tian awakened Transcendent Archery after drawing the Xuanyuan Bow, then struck the tiger from over two hundred meters away with a sharpened 2B pencil.
