Luo Chen returned to Cangwu Mountain and discovered that Qixia Yuanjun, Qing Shuang, and Qing He Xian had used their ascension to escape to the Xuan World through the Star Gate. With the great powers gone, He Qingzi declared Luo Chen the Lord of Cangwu Mountain, and he found a message from Qixia Yuanjun waiting in Profound Understanding Hall.

• Luo Chen traveled through the hidden teleportation array to Cangwu Mountain after He Qingzi summoned him.
• Luo Chen saw Qixia Yuanjun release her Primordial Spirit, while Qing He Xian and Qing Shuang helped draw Spiritual Opportunity and calm the signs of Tribulation Lightning.

• He Qingzi proclaimed Luo Chen the Lord of Cangwu Mountain, and Luo Chen found a cyan feather containing a message from Qixia Yuanjun.

As his injuries healed, Luo Chen contemplated ascending soon and turned to the Burial Bone Umbrella in the Artifact Refining Hall.

• Li Yingzhang recommended Luo Lingxi as successor, and Luo Chen appointed him the Fourth Generation Sect Leader after hearing of his ability and resolve.
• A month later, Luo Lingxi accepted the sect leadership at a succession ceremony attended by Luo Chen and the sect’s senior members.

• Luo Chen held Sermon Meetings for the sect’s Golden Core cultivators and invited Wang Yuan to share his knowledge of regulating Blood and Qi.
• Luo Chen told Wang Yuan that he planned to attempt Spirit Transformation after recovering, then returned to his alchemical work and inspected the Burial Bone Umbrella in the Artifact Refining Hall.

Luo Chen discovered that the Burial Bone Umbrella was a Spirit Treasure crafted by the Heaven Refining Devil Monarch and won over its Artifact Spirit, learning that Qixia Yuanjun had damaged it at Soul Severing Cliff. Ten years later, Li Yingzhang successfully formed his Nascent Soul in Pill Saint Blessed Land.

• Luo Chen compared the Burial Bone Umbrella with the Yuan Tu Sword and realized both bore the Heaven Refining Devil Monarch's distinctive crafting style.
• Luo Chen sent Little Tu to communicate with the umbrella's Artifact Spirit, and the spirit accepted Luo Chen as her master.

• Luo Chen spent ten years healing and nurturing the Burial Bone Umbrella while Luo Tian Sect cultivators distributed his Clarified Butter Pills to the major sects of the Eastern Wasteland.
• A Nascent Soul Formation Omen appeared in Pill Saint Blessed Land, and Luo Chen, Gu Cai Yi, and Canglong watched Li Yingzhang undergo tribulation.
• Li Yingzhang survived the Tribulation Lightning, formed his Nascent Soul, and declared that he had not disappointed everyone.

Luo Tian Sect celebrated three new Nascent Soul cultivators, but two more breakthroughs ended in tragedy, including Sima Hui Niang’s failure. A year later, Luo Lingxi returned to find his mother dying beside Luo Chen, and she urged him to lead the sect on his own.

• Meng Qin'er and Qin Yuanjiang successfully formed Nascent Souls, bringing Luo Tian Sect to ten Qi Refining Nascent Soul True Persons.
• Cui Guangyao failed his Nascent Soul breakthrough and died, prompting Ling Fengzi to merge PiaoMiao Sect’s inheritance into Luo Tian Sect.

• Luo Chen rescued Sima Hui Niang from the brink of death during her failed breakthrough, but her Golden Core remained shattered and her condition worsened over the following year.
• Luo Lingxi returned to find Sima Hui Niang near death; she urged him to take responsibility for his own path, then died in Luo Chen’s arms.

• The Qing He Twin Beauties pledged the Qing He Clan to Luo Chen, who ordered everyone to remain at Cangwu Mountain and protect him while he cultivated toward Spirit Transformation.
• Luo Chen entered the Truth Crossing Hall’s sealed cave abode and began refining a Soul Shaking Pill from the Black Obsidian Lotus and Soul Stones before using his Law Derivation Pill to pursue a fourth Law True Intent.

Arrogant Deceit and Moon Rogue persuaded Eastern Wasteland demon experts to join an attack on Cangwu Mountain while Luo Chen attempted to break through to Spirit Transformation. After fifty years of seclusion, Luo Chen’s breakthrough began, and the demons guarding the mountain prepared to strike.

• Han Shanque arrived at Sky Wolf Mountain and heard Ao Jun and White Eyebrow Immortal Ape dispute Luo Chen’s strength.
• Arrogant Deceit admitted Luo Chen was stronger but said he planned to attack while Luo Chen was vulnerable during his breakthrough.

• Fifty years passed with Cangwu Mountain sealed, until Red Spiritual Energy erupted around the mountain and the demon cultivators recognized that Luo Chen’s breakthrough had begun.

Luo Chen began his Spirit Transformation at Cangwu Mountain while Arrogant Deceit and Moon Rogue led an assault to stop him. His allies’ preparations defeated their interference, leaving Arrogant Deceit pinned by the Yuan Tu Sword as Luo Chen took the final step into Spirit Transformation.

• Blood Vulture Daoist and the White Bone Mysterious Snake watched Cangwu Mountain, while Arrogant Deceit waited with his forces for Luo Chen to enter the Vitality Ocean.
• Arrogant Deceit led more than a dozen attackers against Cangwu Mountain, but Qixia Yuanjun’s Mountain Protection Great Array repelled their first strikes.
• Moon Rogue opened a breach in the formation and let the attackers inside, where they clashed with Thunder Prison Divine Peng and Cangwu Mountain’s other defenders.
• Arrogant Deceit attacked Luo Chen’s Primordial Spirit, but the Great Five Elements Sword Formation trapped him, while Luo Chen’s Fire Phoenix broke Moon Rogue’s Sea Rising Moon technique and drove her away.
• Arrogant Deceit revealed his own Primordial Spirit and charged at Luo Chen, but the Yuan Tu Sword pierced and pinned him against Cangwu Mountain, leaving Luo Chen free to complete Spirit Transformation.

Luo Chen comprehended the Source of Earth in the Vitality Ocean and successfully broke through to Spirit Transformation, choosing a law that could help awaken his Five Elements Dao Physique. After subduing the rebels and sparing Arrogant Deceit only by binding him to the Heavenly Wolf Claw, Luo Chen felt that the world had become too small for him.

• Luo Chen passed over the Nirvana True Intent and chose the Source of Earth, hoping to awaken his dormant Five Elements Dao Physique.
• Luo Chen returned from the Vitality Ocean, completed his Spirit Transformation breakthrough, and drew the Spirit Qi tide into his body.
• Luo Chen ordered He Qingzi to brand the captured rebel Demon Cultivators as slaves of Truth-Crossing Hall, while Tian Xuan reported that Moon Rogue had died and Arrogant Deceit's Primordial Spirit was captive.
• Luo Chen inspected the Heavenly Wolf Claw and ordered Arrogant Deceit to serve as its spirit for a thousand years before being allowed to enter reincarnation.
• Luo Chen subdued Arrogant Deceit and reflected that the world felt too small for him.

After advancing to Spirit Transformation, Luo Chen assessed his cultivation and planned to return to the Luo Tian Sect before seeking a way to break through his Body Tempering limit. A message about Black Devil drew him from Cangwu Mountain to the Northern Sea, where he headed north to confront the figure who shared his enmity.

• Luo Chen reviewed his Attribute Panel and saw that his lifespan had increased, his Five Elements Dao Physique was nearing activation, and his Body Tempering had reached the Fourth Order limit.
• He put the Hundred Poisons King Gu into dormancy after realizing neither it nor his remaining poisons could help him reach the Fifth Order.
• Luo Chen planned to return to the Luo Tian Sect and considered using the Demon-Devil Symbiotic Tree’s fruit to strengthen his body, but the possible methods required rare hearts and blood.
• A Sound Transmission Jade Pendant reported that Black Devil had been found, and Luo Chen left his cave abode for the Northern Sea.
• Luo Chen used his enhanced Exploding Void Fire Escape to travel rapidly north from the Northern Sea teleportation array.

Luo Chen pursued Gu Shaoshang and Gu Xiaolian into the Sunken Sea, where he killed Gu Shaoshang but failed to capture Gu Xiaolian as the True Yang Crown carried her into Fallen Devil Land. He then visited Li Canghai to discuss the Northern Sea's turmoil, and their Divine Thoughts collided as the chapter ended.

• Luo Chen learned from Kong Chan that Gu Shaoshang and Gu Xiaolian had entered the Sunken Sea to reopen a passage into Fallen Devil Land, and he followed Kong Chan there.
• Gu Shaoshang prepared to return to Fallen Devil Land with Gu Xiaolian, hoping to gain the resources and power needed to avenge their father against Luo Chen.

• Luo Chen and Li Canghai discussed the disorder in the Northern Sea and Luo Chen's plans to oppose the Demon Race's great powers, then their Divine Thoughts clashed inside Li Canghai's Mountain Sea Seal.

Luo Chen and Li Canghai compared their strength and discussed the Spirit Transformation shackles before Li recounted the dangers and history of the Sunken Sea Fallen Devil Land. After learning how Li obtained the Devil Monarch's Formation Dao Inheritance and crafted the Mountain Sea Seal, Luo Chen asked whether he would enter the Fallen Devil Land again.

• Luo Chen and Li Canghai tested their divine thoughts, then discussed the strength of the two Ancient Demons and Luo's reasons for seeking them.
• Li Canghai explained how Spirit Transformation cultivators were shackled by the world's assimilation and revealed that he knew of the Xuan World through the Heaven Refining Devil Monarch's inheritance.

Luo Chen learned from Li Canghai about the Fallen Devil Land’s danger to Spirit Transformation cultivators and gained guidance on cultivation, soul refinement, and Spirit Treasure crafting. After leaving Li Canghai, he set out for the Sea Emperor Palace to confront the Sea Emperor Whale, while Li Canghai anticipated the coming clash from within the Mountain Sea Seal.

• Li Canghai warned Luo Chen that the Fallen Devil Land severely suppressed Spirit Transformation cultivators and recounted Blood Sea Old Ancestor’s fatal expedition there, persuading Luo Chen to abandon plans to return.
• Li Canghai explained how Spirit Transformation cultivators cultivated Origin Power, Law True Intent, and Dharma Forms, and Luo Chen shared his soul-refinement methods and gave him valuable pills.
• Li Canghai gave Luo Chen a refinement method based on Soul Drawing Spirit Binding and explained its key techniques and prohibitions.
