I began my journey through the starry sky by planting the Tree of Enlightenment.

Another world. When Jiang Yang awoke, two saplings sprouted from his mind. His body was riddled with IV tubes, his life force rapidly draining away, and his lifespan was ticking away. To survive, he discovered that the sapling on his left could provide him with the life force his body needed through food. Having temporarily gained the ability to live, he realized this world wasn't as wonderful as he had imagined. Secret martial arts and profound mysteries lurked, evil spirits wreaked havoc. Old techniques were brought out. ...The Milky Way flowed for billions of years. Jiang Yang stood alone at the edge of the starry sky, facing the wrath of all races. He chanted: "I, Jiang Yang, today prove my Dao in the Star River, comprehending birth and death, and understanding existence and non-existence." "The left tree is the root of the universe, penetrating dimensions and rooted in the origin. From now on, my body is in harmony with the universe, and all the energy of transformation and the essence of the heavens are at my disposal, never to be exhausted." "The right tree is the source of all martial arts, elaborating on all supernatural powers and demonstrating all techniques. From now on, my hands are in harmony with the Dao. All the techniques in the world, the ancient and modern profound skills, are unparalleled. A single thought can create a method." "I have attained the supreme Starry Sky Overlord Body, condensed the Dao Fruit, and achieved the ninth rank of Purple Gold!" "The place where this fruit stands—above, it sees the boundless Heavenly Dao; below, it illuminates the Nine Netherworlds and Yellow Springs; it traces back the causes and effects of billions of years past; it calculates the rise and fall of ten thousand years to come. Above and below, in all directions, is called the universe; past and present are called time. All things and principles, all beings and phenomena, are all reflected in my Dao, without omission." "With this Dao fruit, I proclaim to Heaven and Earth, to all races, to all holy emperors, gods, kings, immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters of the past and present. From this day forward, all that I see is my territory. All that I say is my heavenly rule. All laws must retreat in the path of my Dao."
