Ling Pengyun entered the Star Sea Realm and discovered that his master, Cloud Bear True Lord, belonged to the mighty Star Sea Pavilion.

• The giant tortoise privately judged Ling Pengyun a promising Spirit Transformation candidate but doubted he could reach that realm in this world without an interplanar war.

Ling Pengyun and Cloud Bear True Lord secured a century of cultivation resources from Star Sea Old Ancestor, who required Ling Pengyun to reach the Nascent Soul Middle Stage within that time or repay the sect. They then visited the Yun Qian Lineage’s Cloud Thousand Technique Pavilion to seek methods that could help Ling Pengyun improve his cultivation.

• Cloud Bear True Lord explained the pavilion’s manuals and its guardian Rock Heaven-Blasting Tortoises, then showed Ling Pengyun a divine sense tempering art and other cultivation methods.

Ling Pengyun received divine ability inheritances and borrowed a defensive Spirit Treasure before Cloud Bear True Lord spent eight years reforging his Five Elements Hundred Treasure Water into a Fourth Rank Spirit Treasure. At Three Immortals Marketplace, Old True Lord Yun Qian agreed to help Ling Pengyun repay most of the sect’s resources if he failed to reach the Nascent Soul Middle Stage within a hundred years.

Old True Lord Yun Qian led the Righteous Path Nascent Souls in a surprise attack against the Demon Race forces besieging Three Immortals Marketplace. The battle escalated into a stalemate, but Cloud Bear True Lord and Ling Pengyun emerged from hiding and killed a Nascent Soul Initial Stage flood dragon.

• Old True Lord Yun Qian called on Cloud Bear True Lord and Ling Pengyun to strike from the void, and they shattered a Nascent Soul Initial Stage flood dragon despite its defenses.

Ling Pengyun and Cloud Bear True Lord infiltrated the demon horde’s rear and slew several Nascent Soul Initial Stage Demon Lords before returning to Three Immortals Marketplace. Their strike exposed Ling Pengyun’s extraordinary Five Elements technique and drew Black Cloud Flood Dragon Lord’s suspicion, while the battle ended in a temporary withdrawal by both sides.

• Ling Pengyun followed Cloud Bear True Lord into the demon horde’s rear and helped kill two more Nascent Soul Initial Stage Demon Lords, prompting Old True Lord Yun Qian and the Righteous Path Nascent Souls to intensify their attacks.
• Black Cloud Flood Dragon Lord strengthened itself and sent three Fourth Rank Middle Grade Spirit Talisman Caves after Ling Pengyun and Cloud Bear True Lord as they attacked a Golden Flood Dragon.
• Cloud Bear True Lord destroyed two phantom dragons with his axe, and Ling Pengyun used his Five Elements Obliteration Nihility Orb to obliterate the third.

• After Black Cloud Flood Dragon Lord’s strength-enhancing spell weakened it, both leaders ended the Nascent Soul battle, and most of the demon horde retreated from the marketplace.
• The Righteous Path Nascent Souls welcomed Ling Pengyun and Cloud Bear True Lord, and Ling Pengyun politely answered their praise.

Ling Pengyun used his Nascent Soul Grand Ceremony at Three Immortals Marketplace to collect cultivation resources, then began cultivating with the gifts he received. Meanwhile, Black Cloud Flood Dragon Lord sought reinforcements from two distant demon powers after his clan’s losses, but they promised only to answer within half a year.

• Cloud Bear True Lord gave the righteous-path Nascent Souls a flood dragon corpse, while Old True Lord Yun Qian, Ling Pengyun, and Cloud Bear True Lord divided their remaining spoils and planned further attacks on the Demon Race.

• Black Cloud Flood Dragon Lord contacted Heavenly Origin Tiger and Water Ripple Flood Dragon Lord to demand support against the righteous forces, and both agreed to consult their clans and respond within half a year.

Ling Pengyun exploited the battle at Three Immortals Marketplace to destroy demon-beast formations, slaughter millions of beasts, and collect their corpses to help his clan obtain a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein. Old True Lord Yun Qian continued suppressing Black Yun Old Flood Dragon, who eventually shielded the remaining demon beasts with a struggling Fourth Rank Superior Grade array.

• After the Demon Race lost more than ten million demon beasts, Black Yun Old Flood Dragon activated a Fourth Rank Superior Grade defensive array, which the marketplace cultivators continued to batter.

Black Yun Old Flood Dragon waited anxiously for reinforcements as Ling Pengyun struggled to break through Three Immortals Marketplace’s defenses. The Sea Flood Dragon Race decided to aid the war, and its reinforcements arrived with the Boundless Demon Territory’s forces, but Water Shatter Flood Dragon Lord immediately demanded Fourth Rank Spirit Water from Black Yun Old Flood Dragon.

• Black Yun Old Flood Dragon worried that without aid from the Sea Flood Dragon Race and the Boundless Demon Territory Clan, his clan would have to retreat and risk losing its future to the righteous path.
• Ling Pengyun lamented that the demons hiding behind Three Immortals Marketplace’s array gave him no chance to advance the clan’s Spirit Vein.

Star Sea Pavilion, the Four Immortals Alliance, and the Extremely Cold Immortal Palace then sent reinforcements, and the expanding battle left Water Shatter Flood Dragon Lord under a fierce assault.

• Water Shatter Flood Dragon Lord and Xu Tian demanded resources from Black Yun Old Flood Dragon, who consulted his Old Ancestor and then stalled their requests while secretly welcoming their reinforcements.
• The Sea Flood Dragon Race and Boundless Demon Territory Old Ancestors decided to claim all spoils after Three Immortals Marketplace fell and drive out the Black Flood Dragon Lake Clan.

• Sword Qi Old Man and Old True Lord Yun Qian combined their sword techniques against Water Shatter Flood Dragon Lord, suppressing him while the other Sea Flood Dragon Demon Lords were held back.

Old True Lord Yun Qian, Sword Qi Old Man, Ling Pengyun, and the other righteous cultivators defeated the Sea Flood Dragon Race and drove the remaining demons into flight. After helping slaughter millions of demon beasts, Ling Pengyun had gathered enough corpses to advance a spirit vein and began considering where to obtain the required Fourth Rank formation and Array Formation Master.

• Old True Lord Yun Qian and Sword Qi Old Man slew Water Shattering Old Flood Dragon, then joined the righteous cultivators in killing the Sea Flood Dragon Race’s Nascent Soul Demon Lords.

• Ling Pengyun decided to seek a Fourth Rank spirit-vein advancement formation and considered Heavenly Star Pavilion, Sea Cloud Immortal Sect, Star Sea Pavilion, and Azure Sea Azure Sky Sect as possible sources.

After the battle at Three Immortals Marketplace, Ling Pengyun gathered millions of demonic beast corpses and returned to the Ling Clan to store them and celebrate his Nascent Soul breakthrough with his family. He then gave Ling Pengxing the Nascent Soul of an earth flood dragon and returned to the marketplace to guard against a demonic counterattack.

• Ling Pengyun collected more than thirteen and a half million demonic beast corpses and received a fourth-rank flying sword spirit treasure and the Nascent Soul of an earth flood dragon.

• Ling Pengyun gave the earth flood dragon's Nascent Soul to Ling Pengxing, completed transporting the corpses, returned the borrowed Storage Bags, and went back to Three Immortals Marketplace to stand guard.

After peace returned to the Northern Wilderness Cultivation World, Ling Pengyun asked Old Array Formation Master Yun He to advance the Ling Clan’s spirit veins. Yun He completed the array work at Ice Snow Valley, and the Ice Spirit Vein began its attempt to become a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein, leaving Ling Pengyun and his family waiting anxiously to learn whether it would succeed.

• The six Spirit Transformation forces signed a truce, and the Three Immortals Marketplace celebrated the end of the upheaval.
• Old True Lord Yun Qian left Ling Pengyun with Sea Cloud True Lord and entrusted Yun He with advancing the Ling Clan’s spirit vein.
• Yun He discovered that the Lingxiao Mountain Range’s linked earth veins could potentially yield a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein, though doing so would consume the region’s other spirit veins, and Ling Pengyun agreed to relocate its mortals before attempting it.
• Yun He found that the Ice Spirit Vein beneath Ice Snow Valley had an unusually strong foundation, then used demon beast corpses and a Vein Enhancement Grand Array to strengthen it over several years.
• The Ice Spirit Vein began condensing a Fourth Rank foundation and drawing spiritual qi from across the region, while Ling Pengyun, Yan Siyi, and Ling Chengxin watched anxiously as the ground shook and cracked.

Ling Pengyun and Yun He guided the Ice Spirit Vein through its advancement to the Fourth Rank, and its returned spiritual qi helped Ling Pengyun break through to the Nascent Soul Second Layer. After Yun He departed, Ling Pengyun established Fourth Rank Spirit Fields in Ice Snow Valley and planted spirit herbs to support his future cultivation.

• Yun He stabilized the cracking Ice Spirit Vein with array arts, allowing it to condense a Medium Grade Nascent Soul and survive tribulation lightning with a Fourth Rank Lightning Guiding Tribulation Crossing Grand Array.
• Ling Pengyun offered Yun He Fourth Rank Spirit Objects in gratitude, then absorbed the Ice Spirit Vein's returned spiritual qi for three years and advanced to the Nascent Soul Second Layer.

• Ling Pengyun leveled the damaged valley, built a cave abode, and created four mu of Fourth Rank Low Grade Spirit Fields.
• Ling Pengyun planted two hundred Third Rank Five Elements spirit herbs and used his Yun Qian Spirit Plant techniques to accelerate their growth for future pill refining.

After Ice Snow Valley’s spirit vein advanced to the Fourth Rank, Ling Pengyun prepared the valley as the Ling Clan’s new mountain and summoned the clan’s Golden Core cultivators to plan its future. He ordered them to arrange the relocation of nearly twenty million mortals, leaving the meeting with Ling Chengyuan asking whether the clan would expand its territory.

• Ling Pengyun opened a Quasi Fourth Rank Ice Spirit Field for the Ice Snow Spirit Fruit Tree, then collected Snow Sea spirit water and set up a Third Rank formation to protect the pool.
• Ling Pengyun gave the Third Rank Snow Sea spirit water to Yan Siyi and Ling Chengxin, keeping the Quasi Fourth Rank water for himself before summoning the clan’s Golden Core cultivators.
• Twenty-three of the Ling Clan’s own Golden Core cultivators arrived at Ice Snow Valley and recognized that its spirit vein had advanced.
• Ling Pengyun declared Ice Snow Valley the clan’s new mountain and ordered the cultivators to arrange the relocation of nearly twenty million mortals from the Lingxiao Mountain Range Territory.
• Ling Chengyuan asked Ling Pengyun whether the clan would next expand its territory.

Ling Pengyun laid out a ten-year plan to seize half of the Crimson Gold Bear Territory and strengthen the Ling Clan, while arranging the relocation of its mortals and a public celebration of his Nascent Soul advancement. He then discussed the Ghost Immortal Lamp’s prospects with Ling Pengxing and decided the clan should seek Profound Yin Ghost Iron in the Eastern Demonic Domain after expanding its territory.

• Ling Pengyun told the Ling Clan’s Golden Core cultivators to prepare for a campaign against the Crimson Gold Bear Race in ten years and promised rewards based on their merits.
• Ling Pengyun scheduled a belated celebration in Ice Snow Valley for six years later and ordered the clan to relocate its mortals from the Lingxiao Mountain Range Territory.
• Ling Pengyun privately met Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengcheng, and Ling Lihao, keeping the three concealed as the clan’s hidden Nascent Soul prospects.
• Ling Pengxing reported that the Ghost Immortal Lamp had only a thirty percent chance of turning a Nascent Soul Demon Lord’s Nascent Soul into an evil ghost, a process that could take a thousand years.
• Ling Pengxing explained that the Ghost Immortal Lamp would improve its chances and shorten the process if it reached the Nascent Soul realm, and Ling Pengyun decided to seek Profound Yin Ghost Iron in the Eastern Demonic Domain after the clan expanded its territory.

Ling Pengyun and Yun He used the Gather Earth Create Vein Grand Array to advance the Ling Clan’s spirit vein at Lingxiao Mountain, but two Nascent Soul Demon Lords attacked before it could stabilize. Ling Pengyun fought to hold them back as the spirit vein struggled through Qi Infusion.

• Ling Pengyun guided Ling Yunhong, Ling Lihao, Ling Pengxing, and other clan members in their cultivation before Yun He returned with the Gather Earth Create Vein Grand Array.
• Ling Pengyun and Yun He set up the array at Lingxiao Mountain, drawing in the origins of more than three thousand spirit veins and the territory’s earth veins while the land’s plants withered.
• The Five Elements Spirit Vein condensed a Nascent Soul Prototype and triggered Qi Infusion, but its weak foundation began to fail under the surging spiritual qi.
• The Crimson Gold Bear Demon Lord and Golden Winged Tiger Demon Lord arrived to sabotage the advancement, intending to prevent the Ling Clan from gaining another Fourth Rank Spirit Vein.
• Ling Pengyun trapped the Demon Lords with his Five Elements Hundred Treasure Water, then attacked with the Purple Star Flying Sword and its thousand phantoms.

Ling Pengyun and the Rock Heaven-Blasting Tortoise fought the Crimson Gold Bear Demon Lord and Golden Winged Tiger Demon Lord to help Old Array Formation Master Yun He promote Lingxiao Mountain’s spirit vein. They killed the tiger and captured its Nascent Soul, while the bear remained entangled with Ling Pengyun as Yun He’s plan continued.

• Old Array Formation Master Yun He sent his Rock Heaven-Blasting Tortoise to help Ling Pengyun defeat the two demon lords.
• The tortoise battered the Golden Winged Tiger Demon Lord while Ling Pengyun suppressed the Crimson Gold Bear Demon Lord.
• The tiger unleashed Golden Wing Destruction, forcing Ling Pengyun and the tortoise to combine their attacks against it.
• Ling Pengyun and the tortoise broke through the tiger’s defenses, killed its body, and trapped its escaping Nascent Soul inside the Five Elements Heaven-Shaking Bell.
• Ling Pengyun gave the tortoise three Fourth Rank Superior Grade cultivation pills, and the tortoise took the tiger’s body and Nascent Soul to Yun He.
• Ling Pengyun continued entangling the Crimson Gold Bear Demon Lord and wondered how the tiger’s remains would help Yun He promote the spirit vein.

Ling Pengyun oversaw Lingxiao Mountain’s Five Elements Spirit Vein becoming a false Nascent Soul spirit vein, then gathered the Ling Clan to celebrate. When Heavenly Star Pavilion and the Maple Leaf Li Family demanded the Golden Winged Tiger Clan’s Fourth Rank Spirit Vein, Ling Pengyun refused, and Sea Cloud True Lord arrived with news of Black Flood Dragon Lake Clan forces and an offer to help seize it.

• Old Array Formation Master Yun He used the Golden Winged Tiger Demon Lord’s Nascent Soul to help Lingxiao Mountain’s Five Elements Spirit Vein form a false Nascent Soul, and Ling Pengyun absorbed its spiritual qi feedback.
• After Yun He departed, Ling Pengyun summoned the Ling Clan to Ice Snow Valley, where more than thirty thousand clansmen held a feast.
• Liu Haochan and the Crimson Flame Fire Phoenix Demon Lord offered gifts, then asked Ling Pengyun to hand over the Golden Winged Tiger Clan’s Fourth Rank Spirit Vein; he refused.
• The Crimson Flame Fire Phoenix threatened Ling Pengyun, but he activated Ice Snow Valley’s protective array until Sea Cloud True Lord’s roar interrupted them.
• Sea Cloud True Lord told Ling Pengyun that Black Flood Dragon Lake Clan Demon Lords had entered the Golden Winged Tiger Clan’s territory and offered to help him seize its spirit vein during the coming Demon Beast Uprising.
