• Jiang Ziliu waited for the Demigod Rank trading fair, intending to secure resources to advance his three tamed beasts before pursuing his goal among the stars.

Jiang Ziliu attended Terra Star’s Demigod Trading Fair, trading for soul dew and acquiring resources for his beasts and a future spacecraft. Guided by the Forging Throne, he also bought an ancient wreck that might help him locate the Throne’s missing core fragments, giving him a promising lead as the fair continued.

• More than three thousand Demigods gathered at Terra Star’s trading fair, where Jiang Ziliu’s honor guard dispersed and participants began bartering their wares.

• Guided by the Forging Throne, Jiang Ziliu purchased an ancient abandoned starship wreck that contained traces of the Throne’s other core fragments.
• Jiang Ziliu resolved to use Probability Judgment to pinpoint the missing core fragment’s location.

Jiang Ziliu used Soul Dew and other resources to help A Kun, Lady White, and Thousand Faces complete their transformations into demigods. All three advanced successfully, gaining rule powers and new paths of growth, while Jiang Ziliu’s own progress depended on their power and feedback.

• Jiang Ziliu gave each bonded beast Soul Dew and prepared additional strengthening methods for Thousand Faces and A Kun.
• A Kun completed his transformation first, becoming a demigod with earth and space rule powers.
• Lady White became a demigod Lightning Dragon and gained command of several rule powers.
• Thousand Faces completed her Little Life Fairy bloodline and became a demigod with four rule powers, including especially strong mastery of the rule of life.
• Jiang Ziliu learned that demigod strength depended on rule comprehension and that the three bonded beasts could continue advancing alongside him.

Jiang Ziliu traced the shattered inheritance of the Suo Weilanya Lineage to a core fragment of the Forging Throne and used Probability Judgment to confirm that the fragment was connected to the Barbaric Star Region. He prepared to follow the lineage into the region to search for it.

• Jiang Ziliu identified the starship wreckage as belonging to Suo Weilanya, a Half-Elf viscount, and learned that her lineage had vanished into the Barbaric Star Region.
• Jiang Ziliu discovered that Probability Judgment now cost half divine power for higher-level questions and required a ten-day cooldown for judgments concerning the King of Origin.
• Jiang Ziliu learned that the Suo Weilanya Lineage's women inherited a secret art for forging elven longbows from a mysterious boulder on Suo Weilanya Star.
• Jiang Ziliu visited the shattered boulder, and the Forging Throne confirmed that its inheritance had been created by one of its core fragments four million years earlier.
• Jiang Ziliu spent fifteen drops of half divine power on Probability Judgment, which gave an 89.66% chance that the fragment lay within or was connected to the Barbaric Star Region.
• Jiang Ziliu prepared to enter the Barbaric Star Region and follow the Suo Weilanya Lineage's path.

Jiang Ziliu pursued the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage through a hazardous meteorite belt in a demigod-rank ancient battlefield, using his powers and help from three origin-rank beings to survive repeated cosmic storms. After spending nearly a third of his demigod divine power, he emerged from the belt and ran into a band of interstellar pirates.

• Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment to infer the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage's route and set off after them.

• Jiang Ziliu killed the fleeing pirates and eliminated those hiding among the slaves in the fortress.
• He chose nine resilient female slaves to lead the survivors through a council of elders, taught them how to operate the fortress, and healed their contracted beasts.

• He used the Demigod divine crystals and medicines to strengthen himself and advanced to the Demigod Fourth Realm.
• Jiang Ziliu pursued the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage and accidentally blundered into a lair of Starry Sky Behemoths.

Jiang Ziliu nearly flew into a Star Sea Void Sink, a folded-space Starry Sky Behemoth Nest, before the Ancient Tree of Wisdom warned him. He turned away after sensing the danger and hoped the behemoths inside had not noticed him.

• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom warned Jiang Ziliu that danger lay ahead, after the companions had withheld the warning to test his perception.

• The girl looked at Jiang Ziliu with hungry interest, and he found himself bound in a blood-red net.

Jiang Ziliu encountered a powerful alien woman who chose him as the father of her future heir, and their intimate encounter greatly strengthened both their origins. She left with the presumed child and challenged him to come to her race's territory, while Jiang Ziliu vowed to claim her and confront the three Kings of Origin.

• The alien woman appeared before Jiang Ziliu, and the three Origin Thrones sealed off his Divine Kingdom while calling the encounter a good thing.

• Jiang Ziliu sensed that he was destined to have a child, and his Divine Power, divine soul, divine body, and origin were greatly strengthened.
• The woman left with a blood-colored lotus-shaped jade and said she would raise the child, inviting Jiang Ziliu to fight his way into her race's territory.
• Jiang Ziliu vowed to claim the woman for himself and decided to demand answers from the three Kings of Origin.

Jiang Ziliu learned that the woman he encountered was an Asura Holy Maiden and that their first union strengthened his origin and conceived a son. The Origin Kings revealed that the child could help Jiang Ziliu overcome his estrangement from the universe, and he left after sealing the star-sea cavity.

• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom identified the woman as the Asura Holy Maiden and explained how her first dual cultivation could strengthen Jiang Ziliu's origin.
• The three Kings of Origin revealed that Jiang Ziliu and the Asura Holy Maiden had conceived a son whose potential was nearly equal to Jiang Ziliu's.
• The Ancient Tortoise of Time said the child was a son, faced no danger, and had the protection of a Fate Law expert in the Asura Race.
• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom explained that Jiang Ziliu's distance from the universe was harming his luck and progress, and that having a child gave him someone to care about and helped him belong.
• Jiang Ziliu gathered the Starry Sky Behemoth corpses, spent nine-tenths of his Divine Power sealing the star-sea cavity, and departed.

Jiang Ziliu pursued the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage through a dangerous region of space and encountered a planet-sized dead eye belonging to an Evil God. With the Ancient Tree of Wisdom’s protection, he survived its contamination, gained insights into the wind element rule, and continued after the lineage as its trail suggested they had stopped nearby.

• Jiang Ziliu pressed onward after learning he had a child, intent on gaining enough strength to face the Asura Race and searching for forging fragments.
• Jiang Ziliu noticed the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage had skirted a lifeless region and chose to follow its trail through it.
• A blood-red, planet-sized object emerged from the void, and its gaze inflicted dangerous rule-level contamination on Jiang Ziliu.
• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom protected Jiang Ziliu and urged him to look again, revealing that the object was the dead eye of a powerful Evil God from the Negative Universe.
• Jiang Ziliu gained substantial insights into the wind element rule before his soul power ran low, and the eye vanished back into the void after thirty seconds.
• Jiang Ziliu continued onward and realized he was nearing the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage, whose trail showed that they had stopped somewhere ahead.

Jiang Ziliu tracked the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage to a dangerous Vast Yang Light-Winged Seven-Colored Bee hive surrounding a supergiant star, but could find no safe way through. The Ancient Tree of Wisdom explained how the lineage had earned the bees’ trust and revealed that the hive guarded an entrance to an ancient battlefield, then hinted that Thousand Faces could help Jiang Ziliu enter.

• Jiang Ziliu followed the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage’s trail to a star system enclosed by a Vast Yang Light-Winged Seven-Colored Bee hive.
• Jiang Ziliu searched for a safe route through the hive but found that the bees’ numbers, surveillance, and combined powers made entry too dangerous.
• Jiang Ziliu asked the Ancient Tree of Wisdom for help, and it explained that the lineage had supplied the bees with demigod-rank darkness energy to earn their trust.
• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom revealed that the bees guarded an entrance to a particular space in an ancient battlefield.
• Jiang Ziliu asked how he could enter safely, and the Ancient Tree of Wisdom pointed to his contracted beast, Thousand Faces, as the key.

Jiang Ziliu and Thousand Faces infiltrated the Vast Yang Light-Winged Seven-Colored Bee hive by creating chaos with two identical queens. After reaching the entrance to an ancient battlefield, Jiang Ziliu recalled Thousand Faces and entered the passage as the swarm pursued him.

• With the Ancient Tree of Wisdom’s help, Thousand Faces transformed into a replica of the hive’s queen and simulated her presence and abilities.
• Thousand Faces and Jiang Ziliu approached the hive, and the two queens’ conflicting orders threw the swarm into confusion.
• Thousand Faces guided Jiang Ziliu past the hive’s partially inactive defensive barrier toward the giant star.
• The true queen’s Demigod Rank drones recognized her by her recent scent and attacked Thousand Faces, but Jiang Ziliu drove them back.
• Jiang Ziliu’s attack exposed him as an outsider, and the swarm surged toward him as he reached the ancient battlefield’s entrance.
• Jiang Ziliu summoned Thousand Faces back into his Divine Kingdom and entered the passage into the unknown void.

Jiang Ziliu emerged in the wrong place in the ancient battlefield and was surrounded by seven demigod-rank rat-like Evil Gods. After their combined death-rule ring suppressed his attacks and weakened his connection to the world, he prepared to join forces with Thousand Faces and break out.

• The Ancient Tree of Wisdom warned Jiang Ziliu that a disturbance in the passage had changed his landing point, and he emerged among seven rat-like Evil Gods.
• The Ancient Tortoise of Time explained that the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage had suppressed Jiang Ziliu's luck, hoping he would learn from the experience.
• Jiang Ziliu attacked the seven demigod third stage Evil Gods with earth, life, and lightning rules while preparing his contracted beasts for a surprise assault.
• The Evil Gods combined the pallid rays from their eyes into a ring that blocked most of Jiang Ziliu's attacks and suppressed his connection to the world.
• Jiang Ziliu identified the ring as a joint, death-rule evolution of Rat-Eye Inch Light and decided to cooperate with Thousand Faces to break out of the encirclement.

Jiang Ziliu broke the seven Evil Gods’ combined attack, killed two of them, and drove the other five away. He collected two Demigod Rank soul crystals and set out to search the ancient battlefield for information and the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage.

• Jiang Ziliu used Light of Jade and lightning to rupture the seven Evil Gods’ energy ring, then survived its backlash with earth-rule armor.
• Thousand Faces, White, and A Kun fought the injured Evil Gods while Jiang Ziliu killed one by disrupting its body and striking its soul with lightning.
• Jiang Ziliu and A Kun restrained and killed a second Evil God, while the other five escaped using soul power that corrupted their opponents’ wills.
• Jiang Ziliu received two rewards of karmic luck and collected two special Demigod Rank soul crystals that could be purified into soul dew.
• Jiang Ziliu began searching the ancient battlefield for information and the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage because the Kings of Origin could not investigate without exposing themselves.

Jiang Ziliu examined the ancient battlefield and learned that its layered spacetime and pervasive Sha Qi made it dangerous for Demigods. After using the universe’s karmic luck to remove the force suppressing his luck, he traced the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage and set out toward them, though the battlefield still threatened trouble.

• Jiang Ziliu saw through the Space Rule that the battlefield was saturated with Sha Qi, which could contaminate his divine soul unless he protected himself with rule-level power.
• He discovered that the battlefield consisted of exceptionally stable, stacked spacetime and memorized the fissure through which he had entered.
• Jiang Ziliu realized his luck had been suppressed and used the karmic luck he earned from killing an Evil God to neutralize the negative effect.
• A gray bone segment worn by an unaware half-elven woman cracked as Jiang Ziliu removed the effect.
• Jiang Ziliu traced life signatures from the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage to find a vague direction and cautiously began traveling toward it.

Jiang Ziliu crossed the ancient battlefield, fighting demonized plants and avoiding mutated beasts and deadly natural hazards. The dangers and scarcity of Evil Gods made him suspect that something had drawn them away, threatening to complicate his search for Forging Throne's core fragments.

• Jiang Ziliu killed a Demigod Rank mutated winged serpent, but received only half the usual Karmic Luck and no soul crystals.
• Jiang Ziliu encountered thirty-seven mutated ferocious beasts and avoided them while pursuing the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage.
• A demonized forest attacked Jiang Ziliu, and he defeated it with help from his three tamed beasts, obtained a tree heart, and gave it to Thousand Faces after the Ancient Tree of Wisdom purified it.
• Jiang Ziliu received a full portion of Demigod Rank Karmic Luck for destroying the demonized plant, then encountered a sea of illusory flowers that was also an Evil God.
• Jiang Ziliu survived a soul-targeting mountain storm, a turbid yellow river, and a dangerous plain of withered bones.
• Jiang Ziliu suspected a mysterious force had drawn the ancient battlefield's Evil Gods elsewhere and worried his search for Forging Throne's core fragments would be difficult.

Jiang Ziliu entered a mysterious space-time gate inside the mountain to search for Forging Throne's fragments and track the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage. As he secretly followed their trail through a ruined starry realm, he realized that unknown dangers from an ancient catastrophe might be more threatening than the lineage or the Evil Gods.

• Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment and learned that Forging Throne's fragments were inside the mountain, then followed the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage's traces into it.
• The Ancient Tortoise of Time told Jiang Ziliu that the unclaimed space-time gate was safe to enter, and Jiang Ziliu passed through it.
• Jiang Ziliu emerged in a vast internal starry realm and sensed that the Suo Weilan Ya Lineage's life signatures were mixed with Evil God presence.
• Jiang Ziliu suppressed his presence, transformed into tiny space debris, and drifted after the lineage while avoiding detection.
• Jiang Ziliu crossed regions filled with shattered palaces and Planetary-Rank God Evil God corpses, concluding that a terrifying upheaval had destroyed the realm and that deeper dangers might await him.
