• Jiang Ziliu found a treasure in the Jiang Family’s collection that could evolve his Beast-Taming Space.

Jiang Ziliu used a Stellar Space Potion to evolve his Beast-Taming Space into a vast, self-illuminating small world. Afterward, he considered his fifth contracted beast and learned that an opportunity awaited him east of the Great Broken Ridge.

• Jiang Ziliu prepared an SSS-grade Stellar Space Potion using a dead stellar core fragment, relying on Probability Judgment to complete the month-long process.
• Jiang Ziliu had A Kun bring the potion into the Beast-Taming Space, then summoned his contracted beasts as the space began evolving.
• Jiang Ziliu sustained the three-day evolution by supplying dark energy and mental power until the Beast-Taming Space became a ten-kilometer-wide, self-illuminating small world.
• Jiang Ziliu discovered a new connection between the Beast-Taming Space and his three contracted beasts, while the Forging Throne encouraged him to experience it without explaining its nature.
• The Forging Throne advised Jiang Ziliu to travel east beyond the Great Broken Ridge, where an opportunity and his mysterious metal disc could lead to his fifth contracted beast.

Jiang Ziliu arrived at Cloud Dream Marsh Base, explored its unusual island-turtle home and powerful community, and learned about its training grounds. The Forging Throne revealed that a valuable treasure it once owned lay in the base’s SSS Grade Dungeon Space, leaving Jiang Ziliu to seek a safe way inside.

• Jiang Ziliu reached Yunmeng Marsh after five months of travel, and the Forging Throne confirmed that the island turtle carrying Cloud Dream Marsh Base had come to meet him.
• Jiang Ziliu disguised himself as a Nine-Star Silver Rank man and entered the base, where he discovered that an unassuming hotel contained vast dimensional spaces and luxurious facilities.
• Jiang Ziliu spent four days learning that Cloud Dream Marsh Base housed fewer than two hundred thousand residents, many of them powerful beast tamers, along with major organizations and numerous Dungeon Spaces.
• The Forging Throne told Jiang Ziliu that its former treasure lay in an SSS Grade Dungeon Space at Cloud Dream Marsh Beast Taming Academy and would help his future development.
• Jiang Ziliu decided not to risk entering the dungeon until he found a reliable way to gain access without alerting the academy’s experts.

Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment to find a way into Cloud Dream Marsh Beast Taming Academy's SSS Grade Dungeon Space by approaching Chen Ziqi, a talented orphan who needed an outside helper. Jiang Ziliu offered to protect him, and Chen Ziqi agreed to their plan to enter together.

• Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment to locate the method in the commoner district and learned that Chen Ziqi needed a Gold Rank helper to join the academy's SSS Grade Dungeon Space expedition.
• Chen Ziqi returned home discouraged after powerful factions blocked his attempts to find a suitable helper and his senior female student pressured him to become her live-in son-in-law.
• Jiang Ziliu appeared in Chen Ziqi's home and offered to serve as his outside helper, requiring Chen Ziqi to follow his orders inside the dungeon and not question his actions.
• Jiang Ziliu proposed appearing only on the final day and having Chen Ziqi bring him through the academy's side gate before the expedition.
• Chen Ziqi accepted Jiang Ziliu's offer, and the two agreed to cooperate.

Jiang Ziliu prepared escape routes before entering the Cloud Dream Marsh Beast Taming Academy with Chen Ziqi, where their arrival drew wary attention from a senior sister and her allies. When the academy opened its SSS Grade Dungeon Space for a soul-crystal competition, Jiang Ziliu entered with Chen Ziqi, intent on finding the item sought by the Forging Throne.

• Jiang Ziliu prepared a single-use Void-Piercing Ship and a dream-space fallback before setting out with Chen Ziqi.
• Jiang Ziliu passed the Three-Eyed Seven-Colored Deer at the academy entrance and entered without raising its alarm.
• A cold, beautiful senior sister and a Diamond Rank beast tamer watched Jiang Ziliu suspiciously, but the senior sister signaled her ally not to act rashly.
• The academy prepared an SSS Grade Dungeon Space competition in which students searched for twenty SSS Grade soul crystals to qualify for a special training program.
• The dungeon gates opened, and Jiang Ziliu entered with Chen Ziqi and the other participants, curious about the item the Forging Throne wanted.

Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment to locate the Forging Throne’s lost treasure, an Origin Divine Ship hidden in the Dungeon Space. He discovered it was guarded by three Supreme Rank exotic beasts and began planning to draw them away.

• Jiang Ziliu brought Chen Ziqi to an underground cave and warned him that students could rob or kill him while he searched for Soul Crystals.
• Jiang Ziliu told Chen Ziqi that at least fifteen Supreme Rank exotic beasts were in the Dungeon Space, and Chen Ziqi realized how dangerous the SSS Grade Soul Crystals were to obtain.
• After recovering his Dark Energy for a day and a half, Jiang Ziliu pinpointed the treasure’s location and left Chen Ziqi behind while he went to retrieve it.
• Jiang Ziliu found that the treasure was a mountain ridge resembling an overturned stone ship, and the Forging Throne identified it as his lost Origin Divine Ship.
• The Forging Throne told Jiang Ziliu that collecting the ship would take at least thirty seconds and that three Supreme Rank exotic beasts guarded it.
• Jiang Ziliu spotted a student searching for Soul Crystals and a Diamond Rank beast tamer nearby, then formed an underhanded plan to lure away the beasts.

Jiang Ziliu manipulated the students seeking Soul Crystals into luring away three supreme rank exotic beasts, then awakened and stole the hidden Origin Divine Ship. He escaped Cloud Dream Marsh Base after giving Chen Ziqi an SSS grade Soul Crystal, while the island turtle watched him leave.

• Murong Qiuling used a talisman to locate three Soul Crystals, unaware that Jiang Ziliu was secretly interfering with other students' searches.
• Murong Qiuling offered a date to anyone who could lure away the three supreme rank exotic beasts, and the students used valuable treasures to draw the beasts away from the mountain.
• With the beasts gone, the students secured the third SSS grade Soul Crystal atop the Origin Divine Throne.
• Jiang Ziliu used the Dwarf King's Hammer and the Forging Throne to conceal the disturbance as he awakened the Origin Divine Ship and absorbed it into his body.
• Jiang Ziliu broke through the Dungeon Space's seal, tossed an SSS grade Soul Crystal to Chen Ziqi, and fled the academy into the great marsh.
• The island turtle watched Jiang Ziliu leave, then closed its eyes and returned to slumber.

After Jiang Ziliu escaped with the Origin Divine Ship, Cloud Dream Marsh Beast Taming Academy’s Supreme Rank experts searched for him and investigated the missing treasure. Their efforts stirred covert competition among major forces, while Jiang Ziliu remained unaware and examined his prize.

• Five Supreme Rank experts searched the area after discovering that a mountain ridge had vanished from the dungeon.
• The academy traced Jiang Ziliu’s entry to Chen Ziqi, lightly punished Chen Ziqi, and secretly monitored him.
• Three months later, the academy uncovered clues connecting the theft to several mysterious incidents but could not identify Jiang Ziliu.
• Other major forces investigated the missing treasure and watched the academy’s secret movements.
• Jiang Ziliu carefully examined the Origin Divine Ship he had acquired.

Jiang Ziliu learned that Divine Hammer was critically damaged and running out of divine power, so he designed and built devices to convert Elemental Crystals into usable energy. After nearly a year of production, Divine Hammer could operate some basic systems, and Jiang Ziliu turned to gathering materials for its self-repair.

• Qingling told Jiang Ziliu that Divine Hammer had lost most of its systems and had less than one millionth of its energy capacity, and that Elemental Crystals could not power it without conversion equipment.
• Jiang Ziliu studied Qingling's blueprints, designed a simplified Elemental Crystal-to-divine-power converter, and judged that it had an 88.6% chance of working.
• Jiang Ziliu spent nearly two months forging and assembling the first converter, which Qingling installed and used with his Elemental Crystals.
• After nearly a year, Jiang Ziliu had made close to twenty converters, bringing Divine Hammer's energy shortage down to one ten-thousandth and enabling basic functions such as self-repair.
• Jiang Ziliu began preparing higher-grade materials so Divine Hammer could repair itself and regain basic interstellar travel capability.

Jiang Ziliu infiltrated the Jiaolong Human Race’s core territory and stole a huge stockpile of Elemental Crystals, then used false disguises to spark a conflict with the Elf Race and raid one of its treasuries as well. The combined haul gave the Divine Hammer enough power for three medium-distance interstellar voyages, leaving Jiang Ziliu with a stronger escape route if Blue Water Star became unsafe.

• Jiang Ziliu chose to remain on Blue Water Star and target the Jiaolong Human Race’s Elemental Crystal reserves rather than leave for the stars.
• Jiang Ziliu infiltrated the Jiaolong Human Race’s SS Grade Dungeon Space and used a beneficial soul medicine to put the treasury guards to sleep.
• Jiang Ziliu stole more than ten million S Grade Elemental Crystals and escaped before the Jiaolong Human Race could catch him.
• Jiang Ziliu disguised himself as an elf, prompting the Jiaolong Human Race to attack an Elf Race branch in Great Broken Ridge.
• Jiang Ziliu raided an Elf Race treasury while the two races fought, taking another 800,000 S Grade Elemental Crystals while disguised as a Jiaolong human.
• Jiang Ziliu’s combined gains powered three medium-distance voyages through the stars for the Divine Hammer.

Jiang Ziliu used the life-type treasures he had seized to evolve Thousand Faces, the Little Life Fairy, into a One-Star Diamond Rank pet beast. After nearly three years, she gained six pairs of Holy Wings of Life, while Jiang Ziliu made only a small advance and then began preparing A Kun and Lady White for Diamond Rank.

• Jiang Ziliu hid in the wilderness after fleeing the three incidents and began using his stolen life-type treasures to strengthen Thousand Faces.
• Thousand Faces slowly absorbed Tree of Life leaves, Water of Life, and Tree of Life sap, transforming all her Dark Energy with the life attribute.
• After nearly three years, Thousand Faces completed her transformation and reached advanced One-Star Diamond Rank.
• Thousand Faces gained small skill improvements, including an increase from three pairs to six pairs of Holy Wings of Life, giving her six chances to revive.
• Jiang Ziliu received a small boost from the evolution but did not advance to Eight-Star Diamond Rank, then started strengthening A Kun and Lady White for Diamond Rank.

After Thousand Faces sensed a mysterious presence deep underground, Jiang Ziliu followed the clue and discovered a vast lake of human blood. At its center, a crystal coffin appeared, revealing an ordinary-looking girl inside and leaving Jiang Ziliu facing a secret of unknown power.

• Thousand Faces sensed a strange underground presence connected to its Little Life Fairy bloodline, and Jiang Ziliu’s Probability Judgments showed the discovery would neither benefit nor harm him.
• Jiang Ziliu descended nearly three hundred thousand meters underground and found an enormous cavern filled with a lake of biologically active human blood.
• A ten-meter crystal coffin suddenly appeared at the lake’s center, bearing a closed eye that reminded Jiang Ziliu of the Forging Throne.
• The coffin became transparent and revealed an ordinary-looking young girl with faint marks on her arms and neck, appearing both dead and not dead.
• Jiang Ziliu cautiously watched the coffin and girl as a change began to occur.

Jiang Ziliu witnessed a mysterious girl awaken after the crystal coffin healed her by draining the lake of blood, and discovered that her spiritual power and knowledge were extraordinary. After she revealed that the Forging Throne was his contracted beast and lamented that her talent origin had been stolen, Jiang Ziliu gave her more resources to support her recovery and coming revenge.

• The crystal coffin absorbed the lake’s life essence, healed the girl’s injuries, and the girl awakened with spiritual power far beyond ordinary experts.
• The girl emerged from the coffin, appeared before Jiang Ziliu, and demanded energy; Jiang Ziliu gave her one million A Grade Elemental Crystals.
• The girl recognized the Forging Throne as Jiang Ziliu’s contracted beast and said that someone had stolen her talent origin before she awakened.
• Jiang Ziliu inferred that the girl had suffered a fate like Heavenly Emperor Shi and expected her to seek revenge against those responsible.
• Jiang Ziliu handed the crystal coffin half of his energy-providing Elemental Crystals and additional high-grade resources to support the girl.

Jiang Ziliu supported the reincarnated girl’s plan to destroy the Gao Clan Family and gave her information on the Human Race’s great families. She rewarded him with creation-category origin liquid for the Forging Throne, then disappeared with her crystal coffin.

• The girl told Jiang Ziliu she had truly reincarnated and revealed that the Gao Clan Family had seized her talent origin.
• Jiang Ziliu agreed that the great families should be weakened and gave the girl information about the Gao Clan and other powerful families.
• The girl praised Jiang Ziliu’s cunning and handed him creation-category origin liquid that could help the Forging Throne recover.
• Jiang Ziliu accepted the liquid, but the girl and her crystal coffin vanished, leaving only the pool of lake water.

Jiang Ziliu delayed using the mysterious origin liquid on the Forging Throne and searched Yunmeng Marsh for resources to strengthen his contracted beasts. Meanwhile, the mysterious girl destroyed the Gao Clan and its allies, and after a year of searching, Jiang Ziliu gathered the resources needed to advance A Kun and Lady White to Diamond Rank.

• Jiang Ziliu used Probability Judgment to confirm the origin liquid could awaken the Forging Throne but contained a hidden mechanism the Forging Throne could remove, so he decided to wait before using it.
• Jiang Ziliu searched Yunmeng Marsh for resources to raise Lady White or A Kun to Diamond Rank.
• The mysterious girl slaughtered the Gao Clan, destroyed five subordinate lineages, and killed Gao Clan members and its allies in the academy and Upper House.
• Jiang Ziliu heard of the Gao Clan's destruction, continued searching nearby, and grew more convinced that he should keep a low profile.
• Over the following year, Jiang Ziliu collected rare resources from dungeons, a mountain giant's lair, an aquatic tribe's altar, and a swamp volcano.
• Jiang Ziliu completed his search and gathered all the resources needed to advance A Kun and Lady White to Diamond Rank.

Jiang Ziliu learned that A Kun could gain a complete Titan Bloodline by evolving in a Titan Nest, so he searched for a way to overcome the dangers guarding one. He tracked down a man who had survived a Titan encounter with a soul bomb and left with a possible clue to exploiting a Titan weakness.

• Jiang Ziliu discovered that evolving A Kun in a Titan Nest and Lady White at a Dragon Gate could complete their bloodlines, and decided to pursue the transformations despite the risks.
• Jiang Ziliu located a lesser Titan Nest near Yunmeng Marsh and learned that Titans fiercely guarded their nests and were nearly immune to poison.
• Jiang Ziliu searched for a minor hereditary family's disciple who had escaped a Titan and found him at an entertainment complex on an island turtle.
• Jiang Ziliu questioned the man, who revealed that a soul bomb had stunned a gold-rank Titan after it killed his wife and younger brother.
• Jiang Ziliu asked the man to describe the bomb and let him go, suspecting that its soul effects might reveal a hidden weakness in Titans.

Jiang Ziliu discovered that soul resonance could incapacitate powerful souls and devised a way to send soul attacks through a Titan Nest. After testing his method, he entered the Giant Tree Jungle and prepared to assault the earth Titans’ core clan grounds.

• Jiang Ziliu found a Soul Bomb blueprint in a treasure market and learned that its soul resonance could knock out beings with powerful souls.
• Jiang Ziliu bought three Titan Nest fragments and discovered that simultaneous attacks at two soul frequencies could penetrate the Nest’s defenses.
• Jiang Ziliu entered the Giant Tree Jungle, evaded its hallucinogenic pollen, giant beasts, and Tree Shepherds, and reached the Titans’ territory.
• Jiang Ziliu realized that the Titans could detect movement through earth-space and that the open clan grounds offered no cover.
• Jiang Ziliu approached the Titan clan grounds after making thorough preparations, ready to launch a surprise attack.

Jiang Ziliu infiltrated the Titans' clan grounds and knocked out most of its inhabitants with Soul Resonance, but a hidden Titan elder nearly killed him with a surprise attack. After recovering and defeating the elder, Jiang Ziliu entered the SS Grade Dungeon Space where the Titan Nest was located.

• Jiang Ziliu used Soul Resonance to knock out the Titans guarding the clan grounds and rushed inside, clearing most of the settlement using intelligence he had gathered beforehand.
• A Nine-Star Diamond Titan elder hid in dust and struck Jiang Ziliu with Earth Avatar, shattering his Electromagnetic Barriers and grievously injuring him.
• Jiang Ziliu healed his injuries with Light of Jade and evaded the elder's next attack by slipping into the earth's spatial layer.
• Jiang Ziliu discovered the elder's soul resonance frequency and knocked him unconscious with Soul Resonance.
• Jiang Ziliu charged into the SS Grade Dungeon Space that held the Titans' headquarters and Titan Nest.

Jiang Ziliu placed A Kun inside the Titan Nest, where it evolved into a One-Star Diamond Azurite Titan with a complete Titan Bloodline and powerful Demigod Rank abilities. After the Titan Nest collapsed, Jiang Ziliu left with A Kun and the others, taking resources but avoiding killing the unconscious Titans to prevent an all-out conflict.

• Jiang Ziliu knocked out the Titan guarding the Titan Nest and carried him outside before placing A Kun inside to evolve.
• As A Kun transformed, the Titan Nest awakened and released energy that Jiang Ziliu recognized as similar to the Divine Hammer’s power.
• A Kun completed its evolution into an Azurite Titan with a complete Titan Bloodline, Supreme Rank skills, and two Demigod Rank abilities.
• A Kun emerged smaller and younger, and the exhausted Titan Nest collapsed after its energy was drained.
• Jiang Ziliu took resources from the Titans’ treasuries but left the unconscious Titans alive and departed to avoid provoking an all-out war.
