Jiang Zhe perfected nine Basic Thunder Mystic Vein Diagrams, used them to create powerful Arcane Techniques, and let Thunder Emperor City cultivators gain breakthroughs through an illusion. After years of work on the Divine Power Path, he hit a bottleneck at the 10081-fold life gene level and decided to claim his reward from Big Cat.

• Jiang Zhe refined nine Basic Thunder Mystic Vein Diagrams until each could unleash Sixth-Rank power, then rebuilt three illusion techniques into Seventh-Rank Apex Arcane Techniques.
• Jiang Zhe combined the three techniques into an Eighth-Rank Apex Soul Arcane Technique and tested it over Thunder Emperor City, where cultivators gained breakthroughs in laws, willpower, and Arcane Techniques.

• Jiang Zhe failed to break through the 10081-fold life gene bottleneck despite repeated attempts, concluded he needed more True God life materials, and set off to find Big Cat for his reward.

Jiang Zhe obtained a trove of divine body samples from Big Brother Cat and used them to break through the perfect gene bottleneck, reaching a 28,000-fold Life Gene Level. After his progress stalled, he returned to the Beast God Platform to request the breakthrough method.

• Demonic Jiang Zhe visited the Beast God Platform and asked Big Brother Cat for a way to break through perfect genes.

• Jiang Zhe reorganized his own and the Demon Avatar's divine bodies, then asked Big Brother Cat to show him the breakthrough method for his new bottleneck.

Demonic Jiang Zhe studied life structures in the Divine Power Path Corridor, advancing his Life Gene Level while investigating how life systems and celestial systems worked. After creating a reproducing lifeform in his divine kingdom, he reached 77,000x and sent the new race to the Thunder Emperor Mystic Realm to grow.

• Demonic Jiang Zhe followed the big cat into the Divine Power Path Corridor and used its life diagrams to raise his Life Gene Level to 31,000x.
• He passed through the corridor’s first two sections and, after studying the third section for thirty-one months, raised his avatars and true body to 60,000x.

• Jiang Zhe helped Luo Feng raise his willpower to the Cosmic Lord Level and gave him a Blood Eye that could summon Jiang Zhe if Flame Emperor attacked him.
• Luo Feng reached the Flame God Race settlement after more than a century, and Flame Emperor summoned him after delaying for over a year.

• Jiang Zhe restructured his divine body to reach 80,000x life gene level, then reached 85,000x before pausing his Life Structure Diagram work at a bottleneck.

Jiang Zhe advanced his life gene level to 85,000 Times, then created the Merfolk and Indura Clans while deliberately stopping at 89,999 Times to avoid a possible trap at 90,000 Times. His demonic counterpart completed the third stage of the Divine Power Path at the same level, and years later the Two-Faced Ancestral God arrived to visit Jiang Zhe.

• Jiang Zhe’s divine body transformation strengthened his soul and helped his will break through to the Eternal Level, but he chose to focus on law comprehension and secret techniques.
• After examining Luo Feng’s path to 100,000 Times, Jiang Zhe decided not to reach 90,000 Times unless he could be certain he could advance beyond it.
• Jiang Zhe created the Merfolk Clan, whose members had an affinity for the Law of Water Source and the Raging Waves innate arcane technique.
• Jiang Zhe created the Indura Clan, whose members had thunder affinity and the Thunder Transformation and Twin Birth innate arcane techniques; the Source Willpower recognized their life structure.

• In Hanxia Calendar year 117250, Jiang Zhe’s master reported that the Two-Faced Ancestral God of the Ancestral God Sect had come to visit.

Jiang Zhe refused the Source Willpower’s demand to hunt Realm Beast collaborators, arguing that a premature confrontation would doom the Cosmic Sea, but agreed to capture Yuan'ao Lord. At the Yuan'ao Mystic Realm, he subdued Yuan'ao Lord and uncovered a valuable Silk Thread map of the Tilting Peak Domain, leaving the gathered powers eager to claim it.

• Jiang Zhe met Two-Faced Ancestral God, learned that Yuan'ao Lord had brought a strange object into the Primal Universe, and refused the Source Willpower’s request to eliminate Realm Beast collaborators.
• Jiang Zhe persuaded the Source Willpower to wait, agreed to deal with Yuan'ao Lord, and requested greater life-force resources for the Human Race and permission to observe the Primal Universe’s destruction and release Primordial Ancestor.
• Jiang Zhe told Chaos City Lord that Yuan'ao Lord had become a Realm Beast servant and departed for the Yuan'ao Mystic Realm to handle the situation.
• Jiang Zhe arrived as Yuan'ao Lord escaped into the Space Layer, then overwhelmed him with a willpower attack and captured him before the gathered Cosmic Lords could intervene.
• Jiang Zhe searched Yuan'ao Lord’s possessions and revealed a Silk Thread map of the Tilting Peak Domain, stirring the other powers’ desire to obtain it.

Jiang Zhe revealed that the Silk Thread Map was bait meant to lure explorers into the Dim Lands, where Realm Beasts threatened the Primal Universe, and explained that Yuan'ao Lord had been sent to lead powerful beings there. He then used the map to negotiate with alien powers, leaving Black Universe Creator to wonder why the Human Race would trade it away.

• Jiang Zhe showed Chaos City Lord, Ice Peak Lord, and Luo Feng that the Silk Thread Map focused on the Dim Lands, and he explained the Realm Beast threat and Yuan'ao Lord's mission.
• Jiang Zhe identified Vast Thunder Star Lord, King Zhenjia, and Qiu Yan Ancestral God as the forces behind Yuan'ao Lord, but said he would target only Yuan'ao Lord to avoid alerting the Realm Beasts.
• Jiang Zhe argued that alien races could not be trusted to resist the Realm Beasts and planned to trap them with the map, while Chaos City Lord accepted his decision.
• Jiang Zhe offered the alien experts a chance to view the Partial Map of Tilting Peak Domain in exchange for suitable stakes, and Black Universe Creator paid three Domain-Type Apex Treasures to inspect it.
• Black Universe Creator confirmed that the map was genuine, then asked about Jiang Zhe's black divine tree; Jiang Zhe told him the Human Race would contact him first if it chose to part with it.
• As Black Universe Creator prepared to leave, Jiang Zhe privately asked him to consider why the Human Race had withdrawn from Tilting Peak Domain and rarely explored it.

Jiang Zhe sold the Partial Map of Tilting Peak Domain to major powers, coercing the Demon Race, Insect Race, and Mechanical Race into ceding territory. After sharing his gains with Luo Feng and Ice Peak Lord, he cut the Dao Tree for the nineteenth time and discovered a Rivers and Mountains Painting.

• Jiang Zhe sold map access to the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance, the Prison Race, the Crystal Race, and several top-tier alliances, while delaying the North Frontier Alliance.
• Jiang Zhe demanded territory from the Demon Race, Insect Race, and Mechanical Race, threatening them with a Clan War; they each ceded five Great Star Regions for the map and an explanation of the Human Race's withdrawal from Tilting Peak Domain.
• Jiang Zhe sold the original Silk Thread Map to the North Frontier Alliance for two Palace-Type Apex Treasures and five Apex Treasure Weapons or Armor.
• Jiang Zhe displayed his gains and let Luo Feng and Ice Peak Lord choose treasures.
• Jiang Zhe made his nineteenth tree-cutting attempt beneath the Dao Tree and found a rolled-up Rivers and Mountains Painting inside the Sphere of Light.

Jiang Zhe discovered that the Rivers and Mountains Painting contained an enormous world bound by Great Dao Chains, then used it to conceal and capture targets. He revealed the Chaos Golden Wings’ origins to Luo Feng and took him to the Cosmic Sea, where he used the painting to swallow Illusory True Demonic God's Minor Universe.

• Jiang Zhe found no Mystic Vein Diagrams in the Rivers and Mountains Painting and instead sensed Great Dao Chains representing thunder, destruction, life, illusion, and desire.
• Jiang Zhe learned to open part of the world within the painting and tested its concealment by having Oriana walk into it.
• Luo Feng asked Jiang Zhe to accompany him into the Cosmic Sea, and Jiang Zhe identified Luo Feng's wing treasures as the first two pairs of the Chaos Golden Wings.
• Jiang Zhe told Luo Feng that the remaining pairs were in the Purple Moon Sacred Land and Tilting Peak Domain, then accompanied him toward the Tilting Peak Domain.
• Jiang Zhe unfurled the Rivers and Mountains Painting over Illusory True Demonic God's Minor Universe and made the entire Minor Universe disappear into it.

Jiang Zhe helped Luo Feng prepare to explore the Cosmic Sea, then devoured the origins of Illusory True Demonic God and Five Firmaments Great Sage’s Minor Universes. After absorbing their power, Jiang Zhe reached the third stage and unlocked Realm Light Passage.

• Jiang Zhe took away two Minor Universes and sent an avatar with Luo Feng toward the Tilting Peak Domain, warning him not to reveal his search for the wing treasure or approach the Purple Moon Sacred Land after gathering four pairs of wings.
• After Luo Feng departed, Jiang Zhe entered the Rivers and Mountains Painting and began devouring Illusory True Demonic God’s Minor Universe, whose connection to its owner had been severed.
• Jiang Zhe rescued the lifeforms from Illusory True Demonic God’s collapsing Minor Universe and moved them into a World Repository, while the Silver-Clad Spirit killed investigators from both Minor Universes.
• Illusory True Demonic God realized Jiang Zhe had destroyed his Minor Universe, and Jiang Zhe then devoured Five Firmaments Great Sage’s Minor Universe, killing all its inhabitants and collecting its treasures.
• After cultivating for thirteen days on the power of the two origins, Jiang Zhe reached the third stage and unlocked Realm Light Passage.

Jiang Zhe traveled to Flowing Heavy Mountains to investigate the Ancient Civilization Ruins where Herod had died, while leaving Luo Feng to begin exploring Tilting Peak Domain on his own. In Truth-Discernment Valley, Jiang Zhe discovered that the mountain mist confused beings with souls but did not affect Energy Life Forms, raising questions about the ruins’ trial.

• Jiang Zhe sealed the Source of Destruction’s returning power rather than letting it transform him into a third-rank realm beast, and planned to pursue a 100,000x Perfect Divine Body before using its full power.
• Jiang Zhe brought Luo Feng to Tilting Peak Domain, left him a Jade Tablet, and told him to explore alone while Jiang Zhe entered a dormant state.
• Jiang Zhe traveled to Flowing Heavy Mountains and used the surrounding landmarks to locate the route to the Ancient Civilization Ruins where Herod had died.
• Jiang Zhe entered Truth-Discernment Valley, found that its white mist confused his soul and sense of direction, and used his other bodies as anchors to navigate.
• Jiang Zhe transformed into an Energy Life Form and discovered that the mist no longer confused him, leading him to suspect the valley’s mist was part of a trial that might kill soulless beings.

Jiang Zhe traversed the Rift Valley, endured its soul-attacking mist creatures, and studied the Willpower Imprints they left on his soul. He reached a vast cave instead of the expected mirror cliff, entered a trial arena, and defeated its first silver swordsman before proceeding through a portal.

• Jiang Zhe used his soul anchors to navigate the mist, found that it suppressed his Thunder Pool, and continued along the Rift Valley’s cliff wall.
• Mist birds passed through Jiang Zhe’s defenses and attacked his soul, while the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors destroyed them; he discovered that their attacks left Willpower Imprints he could study.
• Jiang Zhe allowed increasingly powerful mist monsters to assault him, examining their growing Willpower Imprints until the creatures stopped appearing deeper in the valley.
• Jiang Zhe recorded Mystic Vein Diagrams from his insights, entered a huge cave, and passed through an automatically opening gate into a trial arena.
• Jiang Zhe blocked a silver swordsman’s attack with his shield and defeated it with a lightning spear, then entered the silver vortex that appeared.

Jiang Zhe defeated five increasingly powerful assessment puppets and entered a Chaos Space filled with treasures. There, the Mountain Guardian Spirit revealed that Herod had obtained Ferut’s Staff through a transaction, not by passing the trials.

• Jiang Zhe used his Seventh-Rank spear technique and Spirit Burning to defeat the first two puppets, then overcame the third with soul-defense methods and the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors.
• Jiang Zhe defeated the silver-winged puppet with Emperor Yin’s Three Swords: Brocade World and passed the fourth assessment.
• Jiang Zhe survived the Winged Flying Tiger’s Tenth-Rank physical attack by projecting Treasure Distribution Cliff, then defeated it with his painting technique and passed the fifth assessment.
• Jiang Zhe entered a Chaos Space containing 1,247 treasure-filled celestial bodies and asked a white-robed figure about Ferut’s Staff and Herod’s trials.
• The Mountain Guardian Spirit identified himself as the Master of Flowing Heavy Mountains and said Herod had obtained the staff through a transaction with someone other than himself.

Jiang Zhe learned how Flow and the Source Willpower had manipulated events around Ferut's Staff, then experienced an epiphany that raised his Willpower Strength to the perfected Eternal True God level. After passing five assessments, he was offered a treasure and chose the Spirit Subduing Orb, while Flow hoped he would continue to the next stage and seek the Flowing Heavy Mountains inheritance.

• Flow explained that he had made a deal with the Source Willpower over Ferut's Staff, but later killed Herod and triggered the staff's hidden methods after the Source Willpower suppressed his favored candidate.
• Jiang Zhe pieced together the Source Willpower's motives and experienced an epiphany that raised his Willpower Strength to the perfected Eternal True God level.
• Jiang Zhe told Flow that Primordial Ancestor was his grandmaster and had been suppressed after reaching the Tenth-Rank level and choosing to Possess the Primal Universe.
• Flow introduced himself and offered Jiang Zhe one treasure after explaining that Jiang Zhe had passed five assessments and could choose from the largest celestial bodies.
• Jiang Zhe asked Flow to recommend a Soul System treasure, and Flow presented the Spirit Subduing Orb as a natural Supreme Treasure that could be used as a Yuan Embryo or for artifact refinement.

Jiang Zhe began Flowing Heavy Mountains’ second assessment, solving Xi Emperor Games to test his comprehension. His rapid progress left Senior Flow wondering how much time acceleration Jiang Zhe’s clone was using.

• Jiang Zhe sent a Blood God Child Clone through a silver vortex with the Spirit Subduing Orb, then stayed to pursue Flowing Heavy Mountains’ legacy.
• Jiang Zhe learned that the second assessment would test his comprehension by having him solve Xi Emperor Games, with three epochs to reach the required threshold.
• A mysterious gaze inspected Jiang Zhe’s clones, main body, and Reboot Innate Arcane Technique before vanishing without either Jiang Zhe or Flow noticing.
• Jiang Zhe used time acceleration through his clone in the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar Space and quickly solved the first 1,500 Xi Emperor Games, passing the first bottleneck.
• Jiang Zhe reached 2,719 games in the first year, 3,624 in the tenth year, and 4,429 in the thirtieth year, while Senior Flow wondered how much time acceleration he was using.
