• Jiang Ping'an identified the flames as Emperor Purple Divine Fire, one of the Three Great Extraterrestrial Divine Fires, and began collecting it.

Jiang Ping'an claimed the Emperor Purple Divine Fire, then attacked a Celestial Race spirit stone mine with Lin Zihan. After killing one Celestial Race Venerable, he pursued a Greater Completion Venerable to weaken the Celestial Race and seize its Essence Stones.

• Jiang Ping'an endured the Emperor Purple Divine Fire's power and refined it into his Essence Sea, where it displaced the Karma Cleansing Skyfire while the Swift Blaze True Fire retreated.

Jiang Ping'an and Lin Zihan escaped after the Profound Yellow Pagoda devoured the entire Essence Stone Mine, and Jiang Ping'an headed to the Celestial Continent to buy a Golden-Winged Peng. The Simon Family discovered the mine’s destruction and sought the Celestial Secret Sage’s help to identify Simon Yu’s killer.

• The Profound Yellow Pagoda told Jiang Ping'an it had devoured the entire Essence Stone Mine, so he and Lin Zihan fled aboard a Top-Grade Treasure Ship.
• After taking a long detour, Jiang Ping'an reached the Celestial Continent, entered the Fourth Ring, and found a Golden-Winged Peng scheduled for auction in nearly half a month.

Celestial Secret Sage failed to trace the culprits behind Simon Yu’s death and the drained Light Essence Stone Mine, so the Simon clan chief abandoned revenge. Jiang Ping'an returned to Ping'an City, raised the Golden-Winged Peng’s cultivation by burning away its karma, and later gave Lin Zihan two treasures to help her survive the Saint Tribulation.

• Jiang Ping'an gave Lin Zihan the Eight Scenery Treasure Robe and Thunder Dragon Sword to aid her Saint Tribulation, and she apologized for misjudging him.

• Jiang Ping'an sent Lan Yu, Palace Master Yunshui, and Zhang Zhe to negotiate, but the Celestial Race delegation soon demanded that Ye Chenzhou appear and threatened Ping'an City.
• Jiang Ping'an refused Beite Haoran’s ultimatum, and Lin Zihan joined him as the Beite Family ordered its forces to attack the city.

Jiang Ping'an and the Dragon Abyss Halberd drove the Beite Family’s forces away from Ping'an City, and he prepared the city for their possible return. After more than a month of uneasy quiet, Lin Zihan told him she planned to advance to the Celestial Realm at Sky Lake Mountain in three days.

Jiang Ping'an intercepted them and fought three Demon Emperors, ending with Bahe Hongji shocked by the power of his Heaven Piercing Fist.

• Bahe Hongji led the Baho Family investigation team to Sky Lake Mountain and ordered an attack after discovering that Lin Zihan was a Human Race cultivator undergoing a saint's Heavenly Tribulation.
• Jiang Ping'an flew out to block the team, and Bahe Hongji sent Demon Sheep, Nine-Headed Lion, and Myriad Poison Sky Scorpion to kill him.
• Jiang Ping'an used Void Escape to evade their attacks, then struck Bahe Hongji's defensive Spirit Treasure with a Heaven Piercing Fist and smashed the Top-Grade Treasure Ship before dodging the demons again.

Jiang Ping'an fought off the attackers threatening Lin Zihan’s tribulation, then killed three Celestial Race Venerables and erased every trace of their existence with Karmic Return to Nothingness. Exhausted, he returned to check how the Profound Yellow Pagoda and Dragon Abyss Halberd were faring against the six Demon Emperors.

• Jiang Ping'an used Jade Transformation Divine Light and Burning Essence Sword Qi to drive back the Nine-Headed Lion and Demon Sheep, then warned the attackers to stay away from Sky Lake Mountain.

• After spending seventy percent of his spiritual power on the three attacks, Jiang Ping'an returned to observe the battle between the Profound Yellow Pagoda, the Dragon Abyss Halberd, and the six Demon Emperors.

Jiang Ping'an and his treasures defeated the Celestial Race force while Lin Zihan completed her tribulation and became the Sage of Yin Water. After treating Jiang Ping'an coldly, Lin Zihan explained that her affection for him had come from the Karma Cleansing Skyfire and offered him ten requests in repayment for his help.

• Jiang Ping'an and his treasures killed the attacking Demon Emperors, Foreign Race Venerables, and Demon Kings, then collected Spirit Treasures and corpses.

Jiang Ping'an secured Lin Zihan’s promises to protect Ping'an City and accompany him to the Great Qian Kingdom, then hosted her Saint’s celebration. When Qingqiu City’s princess tried to negotiate away the peace pact, Jiang Ping'an refused and offered her a chance to leave Qingqiu City, while Hu Yan'er chose to stay in Ping'an City.

• Jiang Ping'an asked Lin Zihan to secure a thirty-year peace pact with Qingqiu City, pressure the Beite Family to abandon its claim, and protect him in the Great Qian Kingdom; she agreed to protect him with all her strength.
• Palace Master Yunshui asked Jiang Ping'an to host Lin Zihan’s celebration, which Ping'an City held more than a month later with envoys from across the region in attendance.

• Jiang Ping'an urged the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Princess to leave Qingqiu City and invited Hu Yan'er to stay in Ping'an City; Hu Yan'er accepted.

After Yun Hua failed her mission to negotiate with Ping'an City, Qingqiu City expelled her, then insisted she marry Jiang Ping'an as part of a peace alliance. Jiang Ping'an was stunned by the proposal and asked for half a day to consider it.

• Hu Yan'er urged the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox princess to stop returning to Qingqiu City, but she refused and later attended Jiang Ping'an's banquet without asking him for help.
• After the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox princess left for the guest courtyard, Hu Yan'er stayed with Jiang Ping'an, and they spent the night together.
• When the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox princess returned to Qingqiu City, its elders berated her and drove her out.
• The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan Chief tried to protect Yun Hua, but the Supreme Grand Elder revealed that Qingqiu City planned to marry her to Ye Chenzhou to establish peace with Ping'an City.
• Yun Hua agreed to the marriage alliance, and the Fifteenth Elder of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Foxes asked Jiang Ping'an to accept it; Jiang Ping'an requested half a day to think.

Jiang Ping'an agreed to marry Princess Yunhua to secure peace between Ping'an City and Qingqiu City, then wed her a little over a month later. In their wedding chamber, he revealed his true appearance, and the two began their married life.

• Jiang Ping'an reasoned that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Ancestor might be missing, gravely injured, or dead, and Lin Zihan agreed to the marriage alliance.
• Jiang Ping'an told the Fifteenth Elder of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox that he would marry Princess Yunhua, while stipulating she could not be his principal wife.
• Jiang Ping'an and the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan leader signed a peace treaty and set the wedding date for a little over a month later.

After the Beite Family attacked Ping'an City, Lin Zihan revealed her Saint-level power and drove the attackers away. Palace Master Yunshui then asked Jiang Ping'an to cleanse her karma with Karma Cleansing Skyfire so she could pursue sainthood, and he agreed under two conditions.

• Jiang Ping'an sensed the Beite Family's forces attacking Ping'an City, and Lin Zihan rose into the sky to meet them.
• Lin Zihan's tidal wave crushed the weaker attackers and heavily wounded the Celestial Race Venerables and Demon Emperors, who fled after she ordered them away.
• Jiang Ping'an reassured Ping'an City's residents, and three days later Palace Master Yunshui told him that Lin Zihan had moved to Sky Lake Mountain.
• Palace Master Yunshui asked Jiang Ping'an to use Karma Cleansing Skyfire on her, and he agreed if she obtained Lin Zihan's consent and paid him one hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Palace Master Yunshui begged Lin Zihan to let Ye Chenzhou use the Karma Cleansing Skyfire to remove her karma, but Lin Zihan refused, and Yunshui remained determined. After a year of cultivation, Jiang Ping'an set out for the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool in the Western Wastelands, using the Golden-Winged Peng as his mount and a God Source Crystal to restore its strength along the way.

• Palace Master Yunshui visited Lin Zihan and pleaded for permission to use the Karma Cleansing Skyfire, but Lin Zihan refused because the process was too dangerous.
• Palace Master Yunshui knelt outside Lin Zihan's hall for half a month, while Jiang Ping'an stayed in Ping'an City and continued cultivating.
• After another year, Jiang Ping'an reached the perfection of the Dao Inquiry Realm and learned that the Golden-Winged Peng had not advanced to Demon King, so he planned to use God Source Crystals to restore its demon power during their journey.
• Jiang Ping'an told Ping'an City's leaders, Lan Yu, Princess Yunhua, and Palace Master Yunshui that he would be away for about a year, then departed at night with the Golden-Winged Peng for the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool.
• After the Golden-Winged Peng flew about a million li and needed to rest, Jiang Ping'an gave it a God Source Crystal, which restored its demon power and advanced its cultivation before they continued onward.

Jiang Ping'an entered the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool in search of the Enlightenment Tea Tree and devised a way to withstand its lightning. He safely traveled into its depths and noticed unusual rocks that could be useful to his cultivators.

• Jiang Ping'an left the Golden-Winged Peng outside the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool and began crossing the lightning-struck plateau.
• Jiang Ping'an abandoned flight when lightning overwhelmed his evasions, then ran to the pool's edge using the Kuafu Sun Chasing divine ability.
• Jiang Ping'an replenished his force with a God Source Crystal but withdrew after the lightning inside the pool nearly overwhelmed him.
• Jiang Ping'an built the Mithril Lightning Rod and tested it, successfully channeling the heavenly lightning into the thunder pool instead of himself.
• Jiang Ping'an flew deeper into the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool with the rod and spotted unusual thunderstones that might be refined into magic treasures.

Jiang Ping'an searched the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool for the Enlightenment Tea Tree and discovered people living beneath a lake of lightning plasma. After they attacked him and refused to talk, he left to find a larger lake and someone willing to communicate.

• Jiang Ping'an spotted several children playing in the lightning plasma and pursued them to a lake where they disappeared beneath the surface.
• Jiang Ping'an entered the lake, endured the lightning plasma with his body, and lost his clothes when they were destroyed.

• More than forty people rose from the lakebed and attacked Jiang Ping'an after he released the silver-haired girl.
• Jiang Ping'an escaped through the void, returned to shore, and went in search of a larger lightning lake where he might find someone willing to talk.

Jiang Ping'an met the Thunder Clan beneath the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool and won Chief Lei’s help in searching for the Enlightenment Tea Tree. He learned that the clan had once guarded the pool under Emperor Yuan Zhao, and Chief Lei asked him to stay as the clan’s son-in-law to help renew their bloodline.

• Jiang Ping'an traded Demon King Spirit Pills for clothes, then paid the lake guards to arrange a meeting with their chief.

• Chief Lei explained that the clan could no longer leave the pool and asked Jiang Ping'an to become their son-in-law.

Jiang Ping'an traded with the Thunder Clan for lightning treasures, then set out with Zhao Fengge, Wang Xuan'er, and Zhou Yao to search for the Enlightenment Tea Tree. After learning that Thunder Curse Mountain was dangerous but where the tree appeared most often, he reached the mountain and prepared to search it alone.

• Jiang Ping'an refused Chief Lei's request to breed with the Thunder Clan and traded Spirit Pills and Top-Grade Spirit Stones for lightning treasures.
• Chief Lei introduced Zhao Fengge, Wang Xuan'er, and Zhou Yao, who were to guide Jiang Ping'an to the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

• Zhao Fengge and Wang Xuan'er warned Jiang Ping'an that Thunder Curse Mountain held Purple Firmament Divine Lightning, Golden Lightning Orbs, lightning spirits, and Kui Oxen.
• Jiang Ping'an insisted they go first to Thunder Curse Mountain, where the Enlightenment Tea Tree appeared most often.
• After more than half a month of travel, Jiang Ping'an reached Thunder Curse Mountain and told Zhao Fengge, Wang Xuan'er, and Zhou Yao to wait while he searched for up to half a month.

Jiang Ping'an climbed Thunder Curse Mountain in search of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, battling lightning spirits and enduring the Purple Firmament Divine Lightning. After the Profound Yellow Pagoda captured a Violetgold Lightning Dragon, Jiang Ping'an found the fleeing tree and caught it.

• Jiang Ping'an entered Thunder Curse Mountain on foot and endured a barrage of Purple Firmament Divine Lightning after scattering humanoid lightning spirits.
• Jiang Ping'an evaded tiger-shaped lightning spirits with Void Escape, then fought and defeated three using only his physical strength.
• Jiang Ping'an encountered a Violetgold Lightning Dragon, which the Profound Yellow Pagoda swallowed and refined.
• Jiang Ping'an found the Enlightenment Tea Tree several days later, but it fled as he pursued it.
• The Profound Yellow Pagoda blocked the Purple Firmament Divine Lightning, allowing Jiang Ping'an to catch up and hug the Enlightenment Tea Tree's trunk.

Jiang Ping'an found the Enlightenment Tea Tree in the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool and negotiated for forty-three leaves after the Profound Yellow Pagoda subdued the Kui Ox that came to rescue it. He left the pool with lightning treasures and enough tea leaves to pursue his advancement, planning to seek more after bringing his mother out of the Great Qian Kingdom.

• The Enlightenment Tea Tree called for help, and the Profound Yellow Pagoda defeated and imprisoned the Kui Ox.
• Jiang Ping'an bargained with the Enlightenment Tea Tree and picked forty-three leaves, then gathered heavenly treasures on his way down Thunder Curse Mountain.
• Jiang Ping'an met Zhao Fengge, Miss Wang, and Miss Zhou, thanked them with gifts, and departed.
• Jiang Ping'an collected Golden Lightning Liquid and Violet Lightning Liquid before leaving the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool more than half a month later.
• Jiang Ping'an decided that the forty-three leaves would help him comprehend the first layer of the eighth volume of the "Dao Scripture" and reach the Dao Unification Realm, and planned to seek more leaves after rescuing his mother from the Great Qian Kingdom.

Jiang Ping'an refined Enlightenment Tea Leaves to gain enough insight to attempt advancing to the Dao Unification Realm far from Azure Treasure Continent. Heaven and Earth unleashed a true Heavenly Tribulation against him, and the chapter leaves him facing a barrage of World Extinction Lightning while struggling against the Heaven and Earth Shackles.

• Jiang Ping'an refined thirty Enlightenment Tea Leaves, gained three billion Proficiency Points, and used them to comprehend the early stages of Volume Eight of the "Dao Scripture."
• Jiang Ping'an chose a desolate region for his breakthrough, killed the nearby Demon Emperor and Demon Kings, and cleared the area of threats.
• Jiang Ping'an began advancing to the Dao Unification Realm, but the Profound Yellow Pagoda warned him that Heaven and Earth would suppress his breakthrough.
• Heaven and Earth Shackled Jiang Ping'an with ten golden chains that drained and suppressed him, while World Extinction Lightning replaced the earlier tribulation attacks.
• Jiang Ping'an awakened from the shackles' mental suppression and used Sacred Body: Law, Heaven, and Earth to grow one thousand zhang tall and try to break free.
• World Extinction Lightning split Jiang Ping'an's scalp, then sent ten more bolts hurtling toward his head.

Jiang Ping'an remained trapped in the Heavenly Tribulation’s illusions as it drained his strength and will. The Profound Yellow Pagoda intervened to reach him, but Jiang Ping'an was still overwhelmed by a vision of his mother dying to protect him from Zhao Yingpeng.

• Jiang Ping'an struck the ten bolts of World Extinction Lightning, but the Heaven and Earth Shackles suppressed him and left his consciousness muddled.
• The Heavenly Tribulation drained Jiang Ping'an for two days while the Profound Yellow Pagoda watched, unable to intervene.
• The Profound Yellow Pagoda defied the tribulation and sent a beam of nine-colored light into Jiang Ping'an to manipulate his mind.
• Jiang Ping'an saw Xuan Shan crush him beneath a golden mountain while Jiang Shuyue begged the Golden Arhat to spare her son.
• Jiang Ping'an saw Zhao Yingpeng prepare to bind him with the Mountain-Sea Hoop, then watched Jiang Shuyue use the Soul Transformation Forbidden Art to fight Zhao Yingpeng and die.
• Zhao Yingpeng mocked Jiang Ping'an over Jiang Shuyue's death and called himself Jiang Ping'an's father.

During his Heavenly Tribulation, Jiang Ping'an relived the death of his mother, Jiang Shuyue, and his desperate attempt to kill Zhao Yingpeng. He broke free of the Heaven and Earth Shackles, shattered the tribulation eye, and advanced to the Dao Unification Realm.

• In an illusion, Jiang Ping'an watched Jiang Shuyue die and charged at Zhao Yingpeng, but Xuan Shan and Xuanzang struck him down to protect Zhao Yingpeng.
• Jiang Ping'an cut away his flesh to return what Zhao Yingpeng claimed he owed him, then used Blood Rebirth to restore his body and attack again.
• The illusion shattered, and Jiang Ping'an realized he was undergoing a Heavenly Tribulation while bound by ten golden Heaven and Earth Shackles.
• Jiang Ping'an swallowed the God Source Crystal, gained strength, and tore apart all ten shackles despite the World Extinction Lightning.
• Jiang Ping'an leaped into the sky, shattered the tribulation eye, and advanced from the Dao Inquiry Realm to the Dao Unification Realm.
