A Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Horse-Head Being broke through with a surprise strike, but Li Yuanba healed the injured Golden Corpse and sent it back into battle.

The two agreed to let him try handling it and promised to help him obtain five more pieces if he succeeded.

• The Hell Horse-Head Being left behind an emerald-green crystal, which Great Cultivator Wu Ge identified as dangerous Hell Aversion Crystal Essence.
• Li Yuanba asked to exchange resources for the crystal and explained that it might help his research, while Great Cultivator Wu Ge warned him about its harmful effects.
• Great Cultivator Wu Ge and Hong Guang Honored One agreed to give Li Yuanba the crystal and help him find five more if he could handle it safely.

Li Yuanba safely sealed the Hell Aversion Crystal Essence with a specially made Spirit Sealing Jade Box and helped defend Hell Island with his five Golden Corpse Middle Stage. After agreeing to let Luan Phoenix Palace use the corpses in battle, he received five more Hell Aversion Crystal Essences from Great Cultivator Wu Ge for his research.

Li Yuanba helped defend Hell Island’s passage to Hell Blessed Land with his five Golden Corpse Middle Stage, reducing casualties until reinforcements arrived.

Li Yuanba watched Cultivator Wu lose all eight Golden Corpses Middle Stage to the Hell Beings, then reunited with Great Cultivator Lou and his disciple Lou Wu at the tents. Great Cultivator Lou delivered an Innate Jianmu Tree Heart, which transformed Li Yuanba’s Innate Yi Wood Divine Power and revealed its ability to heal Great Cultivators.

• Li Yuanba tested his enhanced Innate Yi Wood Divine Power on Great Cultivator Lou, who felt refreshed and found that some of his old injuries had improved.

Li Yuanba strengthened his Innate Yi Wood divine power and bestowed its delayed healing effect on seven Core Sword Cultivators before joining the assault on the Hell Blessed Land. After Criminal Cultivators forced open the passage at great cost, Li Yuanba entered first and faced an overwhelming horde of Hell Beings, discovering that his Gravity Field rapidly drained Ten Thousand Swords Peak’s energy.

• Li Yuanba explained that the Innate Yi Wood divine power’s healing energy had improved and could now remain active for two days, then bestowed it on Lou Wu and the seven Core Sword Cultivators.
• Great Cultivator Lou assigned the Core Sword Cultivators to clear the Hell Blessed Land and establish a base, while warning them not to rely recklessly on the healing effect.
• Nearly four hundred Criminal Cultivators charged into the passage; Supervisor Sun died during the assault, and the survivors forced a way into the Hell Blessed Land after losing more than half their number.
• Great Cultivator Lou ordered the Sword Cultivators to enter, and Li Yuanba led the way into a realm crowded with flying and ground-bound Hell Beings beneath a black sun.
• Seeing the remaining Criminal Cultivators falter, Li Yuanba summoned five Golden Corpse Middle Stage and activated Ten Thousand Swords Peak’s Gravity Field, whose energy began draining rapidly.

Li Yuanba helped Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion establish a fortified foothold in the Hell Blessed Land, where the superpowers gathered to repel the Hell Beings. The cultivators began clearing the surrounding area cautiously, while Hong Guang Honored One warned that they needed to discover what was producing so many monsters.

• Li Yuanba used Ten Thousand Swords Peak's Gravity Field to weaken the Hell Beings, allowing the Sword Cultivators and Criminal Cultivators to clear an area and retreat behind Great Cultivator Lou's fortified wall.

• Li Yuanba stayed behind to recover and protect Lou Wu, then demonstrated how his Chaos Sword Intent pierced four Hell Beings with one streak of sword light, restoring Lou Wu's confidence.

Li Yuanba and the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion cultivators fought off Hell Beings while Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu battled a concealed Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Bull-Head Being. The two Great Cultivators killed it, and Lou told Li Yuanba to collect the Hell Aversion Crystal Essence left behind.

• Li Yuanba sensed an ambush, but the Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Bull-Head Being struck Wu Qi before the cultivators could stop it; Wu Qi survived through Innate Yi Wood healing and the pavilion's Space Receiving Formation.
• Li Yuanba protected the Sword Cultivators with Ten Thousand Swords Peak as Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu drew the Hell Bull-Head Being away and fought it together.

• Great Cultivator Lou told Li Yuanba to collect the Hell Aversion Crystal Essence remaining from the creature's corpse.

Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion rotated out after an hour of fighting, and the Central Continent Merchant Guild struggled to advance against the Hell Beings. After a Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Horse-Head Being nearly killed one of its Great Cultivators, the Merchant Guild used costly talismans to kill it and retreated toward the base.

• Wu Qi rejoined Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion, and Li Yuanba healed and blessed him with his Innate Yi Wood divine ability.
• Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion fought for an hour while the superpowers expanded the base, then the Central Continent Merchant Guild took its turn on the battlefield.
• The Central Continent Merchant Guild formed a battle formation and advanced slowly as its cultivators struggled against the Hell Beings.

Li Yuanba healed Great Cultivator Lu with his Innate Yi Wood divine power, revealing his value to the Great Cultivators while keeping the details of his ability restricted to them. As the teams continued clearing Hell Beings, Li Yuanba examined his reward and discovered a close-combat sword cultivation method that could lead to the Mahayana Stage.

• Great Cultivator Lou asked Li Yuanba to treat Great Cultivator Lu, and Li Yuanba agreed on the condition that only the Great Cultivators could know about his ability.
• Li Yuanba used his Innate Yi Wood divine power to heal Great Cultivator Lu's injuries, and Lu rewarded him with ten Sword Cultivation Classics on Jade Slips.
• The superpower teams continued clearing Hell Beings, while the Hell Aversion Crystal Essence from the earlier battle went to Li Yuanba without objection.
• Li Yuanba scanned the Jade Slips and found a Golden Jade Slip containing a Nameless Cultivation Method for close-combat Sword Cultivators that led to the Mahayana Stage.

Li Yuanba studied the Nameless Sword Canon and joined the Great Cultivators as they agreed to share Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion’s Space Receiving Formation with the other superpowers. During an advance into Hell Blessed Land, his powerful Chaos Sword Intent drew a Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Being into an ambush, and Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu engaged it.

Li Yuanba protected the sword cultivator team when a second Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Being attacked, then killed the Hell Horse-Head Being with Ten Thousand Swords Peak before Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu finished their fight. The chapter leaves the sword cultivators and the two Great Cultivators astonished by Li Yuanba’s strength and the threat posed by his mysterious treasure.

• Wu Qi was struck by a second Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Being and escaped with his Space Receiving Talisman as Li Yuanba moved to protect the team.
• Li Yuanba used Ten Thousand Swords Peak and its Gravity Field to slow the Hell Horse-Head Being, then ordered the sword cultivators to retreat while he held it off.
• Li Yuanba unleashed energy flying swords and used Great Cultivator Ge Guang’s Natal Flying Sword to pierce the Hell Horse-Head Being’s defenses and kill it.
• The sword cultivators watched Li Yuanba defeat the Hell Being before Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu finished their own battle.
• Great Cultivator Lou and Great Cultivator Wu killed their opponent and recognized that Ten Thousand Swords Peak was another of Li Yuanba’s methods capable of threatening Great Cultivators.

Li Yuanba joined a clearing expedition into Hell Blessed Land, where his Golden Corpse Middle Stages and Chaos Sword Intent helped the Central Continent team advance while keeping its losses low. The other continents’ team underestimated the Hell Beings and lost twenty-four cultivators, leaving the Great Cultivators worried about the mission’s long-term prospects.

• Li Yuanba told Great Cultivator Lou that he had used up the power stored in Ten Thousand Swords Peak, hiding that most of his powerful Energy Flying Swords remained usable.
• Reinforcements from eleven superpowers arrived, and the cultivators split into a Central Continent team and a team from the other continents to clear Hell Blessed Land in separate directions.
• Great Cultivator Lou asked Li Yuanba to lead with his five Golden Corpse Middle Stages, and the Central Continent team advanced with Li Yuanba at the front.
• Li Yuanba killed groups of Hell Beings with his Chaos Sword Intent, impressing the Central Continent cultivators and convincing the Great Cultivators that he could threaten them.
• A Great Cultivator reported that the other team had lost twenty-four cultivators, and the Central Continent Great Cultivators worried that their opponents’ losses would undermine the mission.

After fifteen days of fighting, the Central Continent team reunited with the badly battered teams from the other continents, and Li Yuanba treated their injured cultivators except those from the Jade Purity Sect and White Emperor Sect. The merged team discovered a stone High Tower that appeared to be a Formation Node, where the Hell Beings fought with organized roles and slowed the advance.

• The Central Continent team regrouped with the other continent teams, whose forces had suffered nearly a hundred casualties and included four seriously injured great cultivators.
• Great Cultivator Lou excluded Jade Purity Sect and White Emperor Sect cultivators from Li Yuanba’s treatment, and Li Yuanba healed the other injured great cultivators and more than twenty Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators.
• The other continent teams discovered that the Central Continent team used a Space Receiving Formation, but Great Cultivator Lou refused to share it, and a Jade Purity Sect Great Cultivator concealed his killing intent toward Li Yuanba.
• Several days later, the merged team spotted a stone High Tower that Li Yuanba suspected was a Formation Node.
• Near the High Tower, the Hell Beings fought in organized groups with specialized roles, forcing the cultivators to advance slowly despite the Great Cultivators’ support.

The cultivators found that the High Tower was an indestructible Formation Base that strengthened the Hell Beings’ coordination, so they built a fortified base nearby and changed their advance. Li Yuanba could not decipher the formation, but he agreed to enhance allied Great Cultivators with his Innate Yi Wood divine power as the teams continued clearing the area.

• Great Cultivator Lou and a Jade Purity Sect Great Cultivator attacked the High Tower, but neither strike left a mark, and Hong Guang Honored One explained that it was integrated with Hell Blessed Land.
• Great Cultivator Lou proposed establishing a second base beside the High Tower, and the Great Cultivators agreed before their teams constructed layered defensive Formations.
• Li Yuanba used his Divine Eye Art and IBMz15 to study the High Tower, but he could not determine the formation’s purpose or break it.
• Great Cultivator Lou asked Li Yuanba to enhance the allied Great Cultivators with Innate Yi Wood divine power, and Li Yuanba agreed while excluding Jade Purity Sect and White Emperor Sect.
• The superpower teams began clearing Hell Beings from the base, while the injured Jade Purity Sect Great Cultivator left his team weakened and Li Yuanba’s Middle Stage Golden Corpses were loaned to allied factions.

Li Yuanba watched as a Hell Being battle formation breached Second Base and forced the super forces to flee. The Jade Purity Sect lost a Great Cultivator, and its remaining team scattered as the Hell Beings attacked.

• Li Yuanba saw the White Emperor Sect team return to Second Base with heavy losses, pursued by two thousand Hell Beings led by five Fourth Grade Late Stage monsters.
• The cultivators' spell barrage failed to stop the Hell Being battle formation, which broke through seven defensive layers before the base's Formation shattered.
• Li Yuanba joined the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion team's retreat as the super forces fled, while the Hell Beings killed the White Emperor Sect cultivators left behind.
• The Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Horse-Head Being attacked the slower Jade Purity Sect team and killed its injured Great Cultivator.
• The surviving Jade Purity Sect Great Cultivator ordered his team to scatter, then fled toward the entrance as the Hell Being battle formation advanced.

The cultivators took turns using long-range attacks to wear down a battle formation of two thousand Hell Beings, then joined forces to kill its five Fourth Grade Late Stage leaders and rebuild the Second Base. After learning that Great Cultivator Qiao had not returned and might be hiding to target Li Yuanba, the Great Cultivators pledged to watch for him and protect Li Yuanba, whose Innate Yi Wood divine power they had come to rely on.

• Great Cultivator Lou led the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion team in long-range attacks, and Li Yuanba's Form Intention Sword stopped a Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Horse-Head Being from ambushing them.
• The sword cultivators broke the formation's black barrier and inflicted casualties before their one-hour rotation ended, and the Great Thunderclap Temple team continued the assault with delayed Buddhist Light Secret Arts.
• After two days of attacks by rotating teams, the Great Cultivators killed the five Fourth Grade Late Stage Hell Beings, cleared the battlefield, and rebuilt the Second Base.
• A Great Cultivator reported that Great Cultivator Qiao had not returned, the Jade Purity Sect had lost all but fourteen Thunder Cultivators, and the White Emperor Sect had been nearly wiped out.
• Hong Guang Honored One suggested Great Cultivator Qiao might be hiding to seek revenge on Li Yuanba, so Great Cultivator Lou and other leaders promised to warn and protect him.
• The Great Cultivators recognized the value of Li Yuanba's Innate Yi Wood divine power, while some superpowers planned to seek its inheritance from Fuliu Sect.

After Great Cultivator Qiao secretly tracked Li Yuanba and tried to assassinate him, Li Yuanba lured him into an isolated space and fought back with his Spiritual Treasures. Li Yuanba pierced Qiao with the Xingyi Sword, leaving him unable to escape his body as his Nascent Soul was destroyed by Chaos Sword Intent.

• After the White Emperor Sect's failed mission, its team and the Jade Purity Sect's team withdrew, and cultivators cautiously resumed clearing Hell Beings.
• Li Yuanba, sensing that someone was watching him, went to the High Tower and planted a hidden object while Great Cultivator Qiao followed under a concealing cloak.
• Great Cultivator Qiao entered Li Yuanba's Samadhi Divine Wind trap and found his retreat blocked by the Boundless Great Isolation Decree.
• Great Cultivator Qiao attacked with lightning, but Li Yuanba used the High Tower for cover and slowed him with Ten Thousand Swords Peak's Gravity Field.
• Li Yuanba's Energy Flying Swords overwhelmed Great Cultivator Qiao, who began preparing to detonate his Sky Strike Thunder Hammer.
• Li Yuanba struck Great Cultivator Qiao with the Xingyi Sword, and Chaos Sword Intent damaged his body and Nascent Soul so severely that he could not leave his body.

Li Yuanba killed Great Cultivator Qiao after Qiao attacked him, and the witnesses agreed that the Jade Purity Sect was responsible for Qiao’s violation. A month later, reinforcements arrived with Great Cultivator Wang He, a Peak Great Cultivator who immediately singled out Li Yuanba.

• Li Yuanba withdrew his Xingyi Sword after killing Great Cultivator Qiao, then put away Qiao’s corpse, Sky Strike Thunder Hammer, and Soul Crystal Ring as the gathered Great Cultivators witnessed the fatal sword wound.
• Hong Guang Honored One and the other Great Cultivators promised to testify that Qiao had broken the rules, while Great Cultivator Lou told Li Yuanba to claim the corpse.
• Li Yuanba explained to Great Cultivator Lou that he had chosen a favorable battlefield to settle Qiao’s repeated spying and pursuit of an opening.
• Over the following month, Li Yuanba continued healing allies and fighting missions, strengthening his Chaos Sword Intent through battle.
• Reinforcements from the Jade Purity Sect and White Emperor Sect arrived, including Peak Great Cultivator Wang He, and Great Cultivator Lou warned Li Yuanba not to face him alone.
• Great Cultivator Wang He addressed the gathered cultivators, found Li Yuanba among them, and called him an unmatched genius who could kill a Great Cultivator.

Great Cultivator Wang He strengthened the Jade Purity Sect’s position in the Second Base, secured Space Receiving Formation slots, and rapidly cleared Hell Beings while Li Yuanba prepared for the threat he posed. After three months of progress and rising casualties from stronger Hell Beings, the cultivators neared the core region and questioned why their reinforcements had not arrived.

• Great Cultivator Wang He arrived, asserted the Jade Purity Sect’s strength, and persuaded the superpowers to redistribute Space Receiving Formation slots without taking any from the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion.
• Great Cultivator Wang He took responsibility for the Jade Purity Sect’s overdue missions, while Li Yuanba strengthened his tent’s defenses and prepared an escape route in case Wang He attacked.
• Great Cultivator Wang He’s team cleared its assigned area in five days, and his strength rapidly increased his influence in the Second Base as Li Yuanba continued enhancing cultivators and fighting alongside the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion.
• Over the next three months, the teams advanced far faster than planned, but groups of Late Stage Hell Beings caused growing casualties, including deaths among the Sword Intent Soaring Pavilion’s cultivators.
• As the Great Cultivators concluded they were nearing the core region after slaying more than a hundred Late Stage Hell Beings, a cultivator asked why the second batch of reinforcements had still not arrived.
