Su Hao investigated Cultivator talent, modified his genes in hopes of gaining it, and traveled to Annan Heng Prefecture to try Moon-Gazing Valley’s recruitment. As he waited for the trial, he wondered why the sect accepted so few disciples despite being the largest in the prefecture.

• Su Hao compared blood samples and found the greatest genetic differences between Cultivators and ordinary people on chromosome 3, with smaller differences on chromosome 8.

• Su Hao reached Huayun City two months later and learned about Moon-Gazing Valley’s recruitment trial at Heart-Severing Cliff.
• Su Hao questioned why Moon-Gazing Valley accepted so few disciples and wondered whether it lacked cultivation resources.

Su Hao arrived at Heart-Severing Cliff to join Moon-Gazing Valley and studied the Covenant Gate’s workings as applicants tried to pass through it. He passed the gate and boarded the Void-Crossing Boat with eighteen other youths, and the boat departed for the sect.

• Su Hao arrived at Heart-Severing Cliff and became fascinated by the Flying Boat that brought Moon-Gazing Valley’s recruiters.
• The fairy in white set up the Covenant Gate and announced that applicants who could pass through it could join Moon-Gazing Valley.
• Nearly a hundred youths failed before the first girl passed through, encouraging other applicants to try.
• Su Hao sensed Qi combine with something in his body as he touched the gate, then passed through and concluded that his self-made talent worked.
• Only nineteen youths among more than a thousand applicants boarded the boat, and all chose to remain after the fairy gave them time to reconsider.
• The fairy dismissed the Covenant Gate, and the Void-Crossing Boat departed Heart-Severing Cliff with Su Hao and the other new recruits aboard.

Su Hao traveled by Flying Shuttle to the Moon-Gazing Valley Immortal Sect and began investigating how Cultivation Talent interacted with the sect’s light screen. After the newcomers argued over rooms, he beat the youths who confronted him and claimed the first room.

• Su Hao examined his body's reaction to the light screen and speculated that a special protein-like compound might be a talent Spirit Root.
• The Flying Shuttle entered the Moon-Gazing Valley Immortal Sect, where the white-clad Immortal maiden led the newcomers to rooms in the Stone Peaks.
• Qin Kefan and Huang Guilai introduced themselves and their families, prompting the other youths to size them up.

• Su Hao punched the ten youths aside, then kicked Qin Kefan when he tried to protest.

Su Hao and Huang Guilai entered Moon-Gazing Valley under the Round-Faced Fairy, who explained the sect’s rules and answered Su Hao’s probing questions. After they accepted the rules and completed the tea ceremony, Fairy Feng Ling formally named Su Hao Feng Wei and Huang Guilai Feng Cheng as her disciples.

After a month of reading, Su Hao and Feng Cheng received their first cultivation lesson from Fairy Feng Ling, who explained the limits and stages of cultivation. The chapter ended with Su Hao calmly calling a potential lifespan of 2,500 years “not bad,” leaving Fairy Feng Ling and Feng Cheng concerned by his reaction.

• Su Hao finished Fairy Feng Ling’s books in one day and continued studying the youths’ Gene samples in Marble Space.
• Fairy Feng Ling tested Su Hao and Feng Cheng on their reading before leading them to the peak for their first cultivation lesson.
• Su Hao climbed the cliff quickly, while Feng Cheng struggled up for half an hour and reached the summit with wounded hands.
• Fairy Feng Ling told them cultivation did not guarantee immortality, though it could extend their lifespans and might lead to immortality through an unknown opportunity.
• Fairy Feng Ling described five cultivation realms and said reaching the Integrated Body Realm could give a person a total lifespan of 2,500 years.
• Su Hao called 2,500 years “not bad,” prompting Fairy Feng Ling and Feng Cheng to look at him with concern.

Su Hao and Feng Cheng received the sect’s Qi-Induction Realm mental method, and Fairy Feng Ling taught them how to begin cultivation. After six days of practice, Su Hao awakened the Mind’s Eye and discovered what Spirit Qi was.

• Fairy Feng Ling explained that cultivation required a Spirit Root, a cultivation method, and comprehension, then gave Su Hao the Moon in the Clouds Mental Method.
• Su Hao memorized the method after one quick look, astonishing Feng Cheng and Fairy Feng Ling.
• The next day, Fairy Feng Ling explained the method and left Su Hao and Feng Cheng to practice for six days; Feng Cheng struggled to understand the instructions.
• Su Hao practiced perceiving his body and the outside world, drawing on his already powerful consciousness.
• On the sixth day, Su Hao’s spiritual world cleared as he awakened the Mind’s Eye and recognized Spirit Qi.

Su Hao formed the Mind's Eye and realized Spirit Qi might be a special Force Field, prompting him to theorize about how Force Fields shaped life and the universe. When Fairy Feng Ling came to check his progress, she was stunned that he had mastered the method in six days.

• Su Hao used the Mind's Eye to perceive his body and reasoned that it reflected bodily information onto his spirit.
• Su Hao concluded that Spirit Qi might be a special Force Field and considered how different Force Fields could shape life and its abilities.

• Su Hao told Fairy Feng Ling that he had illuminated the Inner Mansion and formed the Mind's Eye in six days.
• Fairy Feng Ling struggled to believe Su Hao, while he called himself a genius and Feng Cheng nodded in agreement.

Su Hao impressed Fairy Feng Ling by forming the Mind’s Eye and sensing Spirit Qi, while Feng Cheng struggled to follow their discussion. Later, Su Hao checked on Ashan in the Dark Room and found him stranded in a ruined temple after a string of misfortunes; Ashan broke down with relief when Su Hao contacted him.

• Fairy Feng Ling learned that Su Hao had formed the Mind’s Eye and sensed Spirit Qi, while Feng Cheng admitted he had never practiced before.

• Ashan had survived poisoning, beasts, and trouble in several cities, but a gang stole his soap-making technique and hunted him.
• Su Hao contacted Ashan while he was grilling meat in a ruined temple, and Ashan nearly sobbed with relief at hearing Boss Wei’s voice.

Fairy Feng Ling told her Master about Feng Wei’s extraordinary talent, and he instructed her to teach Feng Wei while keeping proper boundaries. Su Hao arranged to help the stranded Ashan evolve from afar, then returned to the Immortal Sect, where Feng Cheng volunteered to prepare rabbits and began looking for ways to benefit from Feng Wei’s company.

• Fairy Feng Ling found her Master back at the sect and told him Feng Wei had memorized the Moon in the Clouds Mental Method despite having learned only mortal martial arts.
• Fairy Feng Ling’s Master told her to teach Feng Wei normally, treat him favorably without crossing boundaries, and explain the purpose of cultivation.
• Ashan told Su Hao he was stranded outside Hugong City in Luzhong Chang Prefecture, far from Annan Heng Prefecture.
• Su Hao sent Ashan a Rune Teleportation Array and promised to teleport him a syringe monthly, help him evolve to Earth Monarch, and summon him in three years.

Fairy Feng Ling began teaching him the Qi-Induction Realm and warned that cultivators must preserve their original aspirations against heart demons.

• Su Hao connected two Rune Array Disks and successfully teleported Gene Modification Fluid to Ashan.
• Su Hao spent a month cultivating his Mind's Eye until it reached Micro-Precision.
• Fairy Feng Ling gave Su Hao the Cloud Moon Spirit Method's Qi-Induction Realm section and explained its four minor stages.
• Fairy Feng Ling told Su Hao that cultivation stages were guides rather than rigid requirements, and that achieving each realm's purpose mattered more than following one fixed path.
• Fairy Feng Ling explained that heart demons were thoughts that led cultivators away from their original aspirations.

Su Hao converted spirit power for the first time using the Cloud Moon Spirit Method, then used Marble Space to uncover how the process worked. He began planning ways to produce spirit power artificially and concluded that cultivation had stalled before replacing the body with a spirit-power system.

• Fairy Feng Ling explained that the Cloud Moon Spirit Method accumulated spirit power effectively and told Su Hao and Feng Cheng to meet her again in six days.
• Su Hao decided to master the established cultivation method before attempting to alter it, then successfully converted spirit power during meditation.
• Su Hao consulted Marble Space and learned that Spirit Qi Waves, a talent-produced protein-like substance, and the Mind's Eye combined to form spirit power.
• Su Hao outlined ways to create Spirit Qi, produce the necessary substances, and investigate alternatives to the Mind's Eye as a catalyst.
• Su Hao reasoned that cultivation had stalled because even Integrated Body Realm cultivators had not replaced their bodies with a spirit-power system.

Su Hao accelerated his spiritual power cultivation by modifying his genes, then began designing a Rune to strengthen the Spirit Qi around him. At Fairy Feng Ling’s lesson, he asked whether converting spiritual power too quickly could cause side effects.

• Su Hao wrote out a plan to study cultivation, Art Methods, Runes, Alchemy, and Artifact Refining, then sent Ashan another tube of Gene Modification Fluid.
• After finding that dry meditation produced too little spiritual power, Su Hao modified his genes to increase his body’s production of protein-like substances.
• Su Hao’s modification increased those substances dozens of times, speeding up his spiritual power conversion, but he realized that weak Spirit Qi Waves were now the limiting factor.
• Su Hao designed and tested a Force Field Detection Rune, then prepared to collect data on Spirit Qi Waves.
• Feng Cheng arranged tea and seats for Fairy Feng Ling’s lesson, where Su Hao asked whether rapid spiritual power conversion had side effects.

Su Hao cultivated the Cloud Moon Spirit Method, rapidly accumulating spirit power and advancing through the third level of Qi Induction to the fourth. After forming a circulating spirit-power system in his meridians, he learned why Dantian Formation allowed cultivators to mobilize spirit power quickly and prepare to cast spells.

• Su Hao activated his Spirit Qi Wave Rune and converted spirit power at roughly fifty times his previous rate.
• After reaching the Clear Accumulation stage in ten days, Su Hao continued cultivating for more than a month until his spirit power reached the size of an egg, then stopped when he sensed the mental burden.
• Su Hao simulated a route in Marble Space, dispersed his spirit power through his meridians, and completed Categorical Storage.
• Su Hao simulated and refined a circulation route, then guided his spirit power until it formed a continuous cycle and achieved Dantian Formation.
• Su Hao tested his circulation by moving around and realized that flowing spirit power could be mobilized quickly through guidance and inertia.

Su Hao completed the Qi-Induction Realm and discovered that spiritual power could activate his Runes with extraordinary force. He began reorganizing his Rune system and planned further tests away from the Immortal Sect.

• Fairy Feng Ling was stunned by Su Hao’s progress and left to consult her Master about his next steps.
• Su Hao answered Feng Cheng’s cultivation questions while he waited for Fairy Feng Ling to return.
• Su Hao tested spiritual power on Runes and found that it made effects like Fire Dragon, Rotation, and Lightning vastly stronger than Blood Qi did.
• Su Hao sorted his Rune Array Disks in Marble Space and devised a five-level grading system based on the effects Runes produced.
• Su Hao planned to test his revised Rune grades somewhere outside the Immortal Sect so he would not damage it.

Su Hao brought Ashan to a remote valley to test spiritual-power-powered Fire Dragon Runes and establish Rune power grades. Ashan learned he could gain Immortal Fate through Su Hao’s Universal Needle, while strange lights and thunder frightened curious people away from the valley.

• Su Hao teleported to Ashan and refused to take him back because Ashan lacked spatial Balance Tissue.
• Su Hao and Ashan traveled to an uninhabited valley, where Su Hao set up Rune Array Disks and tested Fire Dragon Runes.
• Su Hao explained that he was cultivating immortality, and Ashan asked whether he could join Moon-Gazing Valley and gain Immortal Fate.
• Su Hao told Ashan he could give him an Immortal Fate Needle, then classified Fire Dragon Rune power levels by how quickly they melted iron rods.
• People nearby saw the lights and lightning from the valley, but retreated indoors when thunder frightened them.

Su Hao completed his tests with Ashan, then received the Wind Trick Art Method from Fairy Feng Ling, who asked him to delay Foundation Establishment for two years. He agreed in exchange for cultivation methods, study materials, and a private plot within the sect, and Fairy Feng Ling agreed to provide them.

• Su Hao gave Ashan a Location Stone for emergencies and as a fixed teleport coordinate, then returned to Moon-Gazing Valley and went to sleep.
• Fairy Feng Ling gave Su Hao the Wind Trick Art Method, which contained three Qi-Induction Art Methods, and asked him not to reach Foundation Establishment within two years.
• Fairy Feng Ling explained that delaying would keep Su Hao from dangerous missions, let her remain in the sect to cultivate, and keep his talent from attracting unwanted attention.
• Su Hao agreed to delay his breakthrough if Fairy Feng Ling provided Foundation Establishment cultivation methods and knowledge of subjects such as Alchemy and Artifact Refining.
• Su Hao also requested a private plot for a cave dwelling and experiments, and Fairy Feng Ling agreed to give him her cave dwelling and move to his former residence.

Su Hao learned how Cultivators cultivated spells and began practicing Wind Spirit Protective Shield, while making plans to continue testing Runes with Ashan. He left to find food and contacted Ashan, who was preparing a deserted place for their experiments.

• Su Hao and Fairy Feng Ling agreed that she would provide him with cultivation and introductory craft knowledge, then give him her residence after the Senior Brother Token Competition.
• Fairy Feng Ling told Su Hao that the competition’s Senior Brother Token was a powerful Dharma Artifact, prompting him to consider competing.
• Su Hao studied Wind Trick Art Method and realized that spells were cultivated by imprinting patterns into spiritual power through Meditation and Seal Gestures.

• Su Hao considered creating a Storage Space for food and asked Ashan whether he had eaten dinner.

Su Hao completed the Wind Spirit Protective Shield and tested its defenses, then planned to teach Ashan runes and continue studying Art Methods. The chapter ended with Feng Cheng waiting for Senior Brother Feng Wei and imagining that he had mastered Inedia.

• Su Hao completed the Wind Spirit Protective Shield and tested how it resisted Diamond Thorn attacks.
• Su Hao found that Level 1—Penetration could not pierce the shield, but Level 2—Penetration broke through it and collapsed the barrier around his body.
• Su Hao assessed the shield’s strengths and weaknesses and considered combining it with his other defenses.
• Su Hao decided to cultivate the Wind-Roaming Agility Art next and planned to teach Ashan runes and assign him research work.
• Feng Cheng waited outside Stone Peak with sweet potatoes, wondering why Senior Brother Feng Wei had not appeared and concluding that he might have cultivated Inedia.

Su Hao tested the Wind-Roaming Agility Art and Wind Bullet, then offered to improve Ashan’s learning with a brain implant and computer loaded with Runes. The chapter ended with Ashan resolving to work hard for Su Hao’s ambition to reach the stars and define God.

• Su Hao tested Wind-Roaming Agility Art and Wind Bullet, judging both useful but inferior to his existing abilities.
• Ashan admitted he struggled to memorize the Basic Runes, so Su Hao promised to send him a Prophet injection and implant a small computer in his brain.
• Ashan praised Su Hao as a potential God, and Su Hao said he first needed to break free of the planet.
• Su Hao Teleported away, while Ashan recommitted himself to studying the Rune Manual despite forgetting what he learned.
