As he prepared to enter the Dao Realm, Lin Tian reunited with his Blue Star friends at Magic City University to spend time together before they would be separated.

• Lin Tian messaged Nangong Qingwan and his other Blue Star friends, then invited them to meet at Magic City University before his journey to the Dao Realm.
• Lin Tian and his friends agreed to return to the feeling of their university days, since they would likely meet only in the Small World for the period ahead.

Lin Tian returned to Star Abyss Academy after his Chaos training and told Mu Ge and Ancestor Qiong Lan that the Chaos Ancient Road had ended early after he brought in a Dao Touching Realm prodigy.

At the end of the star path, Lin Tian entered the Dao Realm and received a system notification promising three great rewards.

• Lin Tian explained the true purpose of the Chaos Ancient Road and led Mu Ge onto the star path to the Dao Realm.
• At the end of the star path, Lin Tian received a system notification granting him three great rewards for entering the Dao Realm.

After Lin Tian entered the Dao Realm, the system gave him three rewards: three Future Summoning Cards, a hundredfold upgrade to Heavenly Palace’s Small World, and a collective advancement for all summoned members. He activated the Small World upgrade and advancement, which both completed as he spoke with Mu Ge.

• The system awarded Lin Tian three Future Summoning Cards whose summons would be at least in the Dao Opening Realm.
• The system explained that upgrading Heavenly Palace’s Small World would improve its cultivation environment a hundredfold and produce Dao Touching cultivators monthly and Dao Opening cultivators yearly.
• The system said all summoned Heavenly Palace members would advance, with those already in the Eternal Immortal Realm or Dao Domain improving further according to their talent.

• Mu Ge asked Lin Tian why he was grinning, and he said he was happy to be approaching Heavenly Palace’s true base of operations.
• The system announced that the Small World upgrade and all summoned members’ advancement were complete.

After Heavenly Palace’s upgrade, Lin Tian learned that the Radiant Legion could grow stronger by reaching the true sun, moon, and stars, and that Fancang had become a Great Dao Venerable. Lin Tian and Mu Ge entered the Dao Realm, where the Gray Space’s mysterious figure emerged and said that neither Lin Tian nor Heavenly Palace appeared in the future it had seen.

• Lin Tian checked Heavenly Palace’s members’ cultivation and discovered that Fancang had reached the Great Dao Venerable Realm while six others had become Other Shore Dao Experts.
• The system explained that the Dao Realm’s sun, moon, and stars were projections whose true bodies lay in powerful clans’ territories, where the Radiant Legion could improve further.
• Lin Tian reviewed Fancang’s progress, including twenty thousand li opened along the Fire Great Dao, then reached the end of the star path with Mu Ge.
• Lin Tian and Mu Ge stepped into the Dao Realm, and Lin Tian was pulled into the familiar Gray Space.
• Lin Tian concluded that the Gray Space contained Time Fragments showing his past but not his time cultivating in the Small World, and a gray figure appeared, claiming it had never seen Lin Tian or Heavenly Palace in the future.

A mysterious gray figure intercepted Lin Tian as he approached the Dao Realm and explained its domains and cultivation hierarchy. The figure ended by revealing that some beings had reached the end of the Great Dao: the Lords of the Great Dao.

• A gray figure pulled Lin Tian into Gray Space and said they had never seen him or the Heavenly Palace in the future they visited.
• The gray figure said they had intercepted Lin Tian to protect him, then explained that the Dao Realm had ten domains and warned him to avoid the Death Domain.
• The figure described Saints as powerful regional leaders and Great Dao Supremes as the founders of holy lands.
• The gray figure warned Lin Tian that beings who had opened ten million li on the Great Dao could sense even thoughts about them.
• After Lin Tian asked whether the Great Dao had an end, the gray figure said some beings had reached it and were called the Lords of the Great Dao.

Lin Tian learned from the gray figure about the Lords of the Great Dao, the Star Clan and Xuan Yue Clan’s hidden power, and an approaching catastrophe in the Dao Realm’s future. The gray figure sent him back to the Star Road, where Lin Tian discovered that a thousand years had passed without him contacting Yueling.

• The gray figure explained that Lords of the Great Dao became the Great Dao itself, could strip away others’ cultivation, and numbered no more than five.
• Lin Tian realized that the Star Clan and Xuan Yue Clan each had a Lord of the Great Dao, which explained their dominance.
• The gray figure said he had pulled Lin Tian away from a future in which many people died, gambling that Lin Tian’s connections and the Heavenly Palace could help.

• Mu Ge marveled at the Dao Realm, and Lin Tian contacted Yueling, who told him he had not contacted her throughout the past thousand years.

• Lin Tian told Mu Ge that a powerful gray figure had isolated the flow of time, making a month in the chaos equal a thousand years in the Dao Realm.
• Yueling and a middle-aged Xuan Yue Clan expert arrived, and Yueling asked Lin Tian what had happened during his absence.

• The Xuan Yue Clan expert invited Lin Tian to visit the clan, but he declined and said he would return to the Heavenly Palace.

Lin Tian reunited with Yueling, learned how powerful she had become, and set out with Mu Ge to investigate their goals in the Dao Realm. A message from Yueling revealed that the God Devouring Hall had been destroyed a thousand years earlier by a Xuan Yue Clan Great Dao Supreme.

• The Xuan Yue Clan Supreme took Yueling away after Lin Tian said he had to return to the Heavenly Palace, then warned him that someone from the Star Clan would soon seek him out.
• Lin Tian told Mu Ge that Yueling was powerful enough to destroy the Ni Sheng Sect and considered how the Dao Realm's regions and higher worlds might be structured.

• Lin Tian received Yueling's message that a Xuan Yue Clan investigation had implicated the God Devouring Hall, which a Great Dao Supreme had destroyed a thousand years earlier.

• Moonlight found Heaven's Secret Pavilion, whose shopkeeper said its Pavilion Master was a powerful Karma Great Dao expert with ties to the Dao Realm's major forces.
• The shopkeeper hinted that he knew even juicier gossip about the Pavilion Master and asked Lin Tian to pay extra to hear it.

Lin Tian visited the Heaven's Secret Pavilion to buy information about the Dao Realm, its ten domains, and the Xuan Yue Clan's destruction of the God Devouring Hall. After recognizing his moon token, the shopkeeper sold him the information for ten thousand Dao crystals, and Lin Tian began learning about the domains.

• Lin Tian asked the Heaven's Secret Pavilion shopkeeper for detailed information on the Dao Realm, its recent events, and the Xuan Yue Clan's rise and destruction of the God Devouring Hall.

• Lin Tian and Mu Ge entered the Time Tower while Yueguang stood guard, and three days later Lin Tian broke through to the Eternal Immortal Venerable Realm.

Lin Tian learned how to enter the Dao Realm’s upper realm and chose to avoid the Path to Heaven so he would not attract powerful factions’ attention. Fan Cang brought him to the Lan Domain upper realm, where Lin Tian decided to wait for the tenth-year check-in and summoning.

• Moonlight explained that Venerable experts could lead people to the upper realm, while others could attempt the dangerous Path to Heaven.
• Moonlight told Lin Tian that the Vast Sea separated the lower realms and could be crossed with a Venerable’s help or aboard a Heaven’s Secret Ship that departed once every million years.

Three days after returning to the Lan Domain, Lin Tian was reunited with the mighty one who had opened up the Blue Star Secret Realm.
