Beneath the city, Bai Qi and Lei Hongfei waited for the lotus to mature, while Ling Yi sensed its power and began investigating.

Ling Yi received an Angel Legion data backup, summoned Angel Yan, and learned that dark spiritual power could serve as the material for a Void Engine. After studying how Void Engines altered physical laws and their limits in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, he reached the question of law invasion.

• Ling Yi signed in and received an Angel Legion data backup containing Angel Liang Bing-Morgana and Angel Yan.
• Ling Yi summoned Angel Yan and asked her to open access to her data so he could make a permanent backup.
• Ling Yi discovered that building Angel Yan’s Void Engine required void matter, which his analysis identified as dark spiritual power.
• Ling Yi reviewed how Void Engines could modify physical laws and simulate higher physical dimensions, while Secondary Void Engines used biological genes.
• Ling Yi concluded that Void Engines could affect cultivators who obeyed physical laws, but could not directly change spiritual power laws, and turned to the issue of law invasion.

Ling Yi introduced Angel Yan to his companions, then built a cultivation-world Void Engine and chose the Heavenly Court Artifact Spirit to serve as its intelligence. The artifact spirit was absorbed into the engine, leaving Ling Yi with a powerful tool tied to the Divine Domain’s higher-dimensional laws.

• Ling Yi introduced Angel Yan to Yunxi, Little Huo, Little Hei, and Lan Haoyue, then assigned Yan to establish and lead a cultivation version of the Transcendent God Seminary.
• Ling Yi began constructing a cultivation version of the Void Engine using the data Yan had brought and his understanding of spiritual-power laws.
• Ling Yi completed the engine’s data self-check and explained how Void Engines differed from gene engines by using simulated higher dimensions to alter lower-dimensional laws.
• Ling Yi summoned the Haotian Artifact Spirit and offered to help him become human and a god if he served for a thousand years.
• The Heavenly Court Artifact Spirit agreed to serve, and Ling Yi sent him into the Void Engine as its intelligence because his core contained a portion of the Divine Domain’s laws.

Ling Yi renamed Fengyang City the Transcendent God Seminary and announced plans to build a Divine Weapon Legion and confront threats across the Azure Cloud Continent. After he left, Yan sealed the gathered cultivators’ Nascent Souls and ordered them to take the seminary’s assessment.

• Ling Yi named himself headmaster and Yan deputy headmaster, established internal recruitment and a Magic-Sealing Domain, and ordered the creation of a Divine Weapon Legion.
• Ling Yi warned the gathered sect leaders about the Blood Demon Sect, the Demon Court’s hidden agents, Haotian’s fall, and the looming crisis in the Heavenly Court Region.

After six months of captivity, Ling Yi sent Xiang Ming and his Dao protector back to the Sacred Sect, then left with Yunxi. The Sacred Sect attacked the Transcendent God Seminary, but Angel Yan destroyed its Oblivion Tower and launched the Angel Legion into battle.

• Ling Yi explained that the Sacred Sect had not come for Xiang Ming, then sent Xiang Ming and his Dao protector away while their soul magnetic field seals remained in place.

• Angel Yan ordered the Angel Legion to attack, and the angels broke through the formation and began fighting the Sacred Sect's cultivators.

Yan demonstrated the Angel Legion’s power by crushing the Sacred Sect’s attack, but the victory consumed three billion crystals of energy. After consulting Ling Yi, she learned about the Cangnan Region’s energy resources and planned to sell cultivation versions of advanced technology to build the Transcendent God Seminary’s reserves.

• The Angel Legion used its Secondary Void Engines to defeat the Sacred Sect, and fewer than a hundred of its nearly fifteen hundred attackers escaped.
• Yan learned that the Angel Legion had spent three billion crystals of energy and began worrying about the Seminary’s limited power supply.
• Yan called Ling Yi, who told her that the Heavenly Court held about one quadrillion crystals but that she could use only ten trillion.
• Ling Yi explained that spirit stones, pills, spiritual plants, demonic cores, Golden Cores, and Nascent Souls could provide energy, and suggested selling cultivation versions of phones and computers instead of seizing resources by force.
• Yan accepted Ling Yi’s advice, resolved to develop the Seminary’s energy reserves steadily, and transmitted data to the noisy Divine Weapon Legion.

Yan established the Transcendent God Seminary’s forces and began preparing to sell mobile phones, while Ling Yi learned how Li Chen and Lü Peng escaped a sect that planned to possess their bodies. He joined them on a journey to a forbidden land secret realm, and the group headed north with a growing crowd of cultivators.

• Yan organized the Transcendent God Seminary’s eight legions and founded the Transcendent God Chamber of Commerce, developing the text-messaging Transcendent God No. 1 phone.

• Ling Yi and his companions left Black Tortoise City and flew north among thousands of cultivators bound for the forbidden land.

Ling Yi and his companions reached the forbidden land separating the Cangnan Region from the Blazing Fire Region, where Yunxi killed an arrogant young cultivator with Little Huo’s demonic fire.

• Li Chen and Lü Peng told Yunxi about the Blazing Fire Region and the restriction separating it from their region.
• A nouveau riche young man demanded Little Hei and made advances toward Yunxi, so Yunxi burned him to nothing with Little Huo’s demonic fire, prompting his Spirit Severing Realm protector to flee.
• Ling Yi reassured Yunxi that she had not gone too far, while privately considering how to resurrect her mother, Ling Xia, through the Divine Domain.
• The group reached the restriction, where most cultivators lost the ability to fly and Little Hei used his Secondary Void Engine to keep himself and Yunxi aloft.
• Ling Yi activated his Gene Engine and Void Engine at full power and analyzed the restriction as a Divine Restriction that required Divine Yuan Power.
