• Han Yi opened the cave abode and unleashed the Nine Heavens Thunder Spirit Formation, killing Yao Long, while Jing Jishan and Wu Mingshu revealed a fourth-tier formation and a hidden Nascent Soul cultivator appeared.

Han Yi registered for Great Qin’s Supreme Token contest and was transported to Heavenly Pillar Sixuan Heaven, where he learned the assessment was to hunt Rock Demons. After sensing a Deity Transformation-level Rock Demon, he suspected the grotto-heaven had a revival method for designated cultivators and concealed his aura before heading toward the roar.

• Han Yi registered alone at Golden Token Tower, received a Supreme Jade, and noticed Feng Wusheng with Xia Quan of Soul Hall’s Earthly Fiend Hall.
• Han Yi rented a cave residence and spent a month cultivating the Sword Control Technique, reaching 90/100 before the assessment began.
• The Supreme Jade transported Han Yi to an ancient mountain forest, where a projection of the Great Qin Emperor’s court announced that contestants would hunt Rock Demons for points.

• Han Yi killed a powerful Rock Demon and an attacking Golden Core cultivator, gaining fifteen points and realizing that killing fellow contestants also counted.
• Three cultivators attacked Han Yi; his Green Duckweed Sword broke the brocade-robed leader’s half-step spirit treasure, while the lean array master began forming a heavenly secrets array that triggered Han Yi’s alarm.

Han Yi survived successive attacks in the Rock Demon territory, then encountered Xia Quan besieging Zhuo Yangxi and intervened to target Feng Wusheng. Xia Quan recognized Han Yi as an unbound Heavenly Dipper Hall Soul Seed and pulled both their souls into his soul slave space to try to enslave him.

• Han Yi killed two of the three cultivators who attacked him, while the brocade-robed youth escaped with a bamboo slip and the formation master was taken away by his Supreme Jade.
• Han Yi killed four more cultivators with three swords, raised his score to 36, and fled after a powerful Rock Demon scattered nearby fighters.
• Han Yi found Xia Quan and his soul slaves besieging Zhuo Yangxi, recognized Feng Wusheng among them, and charged in to attack.

Han Yi resisted Xia Quan’s attempts to enslave his soul in the Soul Slave Space, revealing that his mastery of soul arts far surpassed Xia Quan’s expectations. After Han Yi destroyed Xia Quan’s Earthly Fiend Soul Arrow and broke through his Soul-Sealing Art with Soul Decay, Xia Quan was struck with terror and demanded to know who Han Yi was.

• Xia Quan explained that he had trapped Han Yi in his Soul Slave Space to plant a Soul Mark and make him his fifth soul slave.

• Han Yi realized his soul slaves could expose his whereabouts and resolved to form a Nascent Soul.

Han Yi began forming a Nascent Soul at the Azure Delay Sect, using the Supreme Token to fuse his divine soul with his Golden Core before facing the heavenly tribulation. He survived an extraordinary thunder-sea tribulation, and a watching cultivator recognized him as Han Yi of the Mystic Pill Sect.

• Han Yi disguised himself, entered the Azure Delay Sect, subdued Du Kun, and made him a soul slave before preparing Azure Delay Mountain for his breakthrough.

• Han Yi endured the first five lightning bolts, then used the Nine Heavens Thunder Spirit Formation and raised the Green Duckweed Sword toward the thunder sea before the sixth trial descended as a vast sea of thunder.
• The thunder sea blasted Han Yi into Azure Delay Hall, but his Nascent Soul recovered and became complete as a nearby cultivator identified the tribulation as Thunder Sea Becomes Tribulation and recognized Han Yi of the Mystic Pill Sect.

Han Yi defeated Huo Feicheng by breaking his Infernal Fire with swordsmanship and striking his Nascent Soul with a soul art, forcing the Commandant’s Office deputy to retreat. After the Great Qin cultivators withdrew, Han Yi sensed another hidden watcher nearby and challenged them to reveal themselves.

• Huo Feicheng unleashed his Blazing Fire Banner’s prison of fire and enhanced it with his Infernal Fire divine ability, while Han Yi cut through the flames and revealed his powerful body cultivation.
• Han Yi used the Ninefold Soul-Sealing Mark to draw Huo Feicheng’s Nascent Soul into the Soul Slave Space, where his soul arts severely wounded it.
• Han Yi returned to the battlefield and damaged the Blazing Fire Banner with Green Duckweed; Huo Feicheng withdrew, and Bao Hanchi and the other Great Qin cultivators departed.
• Jin Wang recorded Han Yi’s battle and remained behind, while identifying the hidden observer as Yan Zhan of the Soul Hall’s Heaven-Burying Hall.
• Han Yi’s Soul-Binding Art revealed an unknown presence seven miles away, and he demanded that the concealed figure identify themselves.

Han Yi fought Yan Zhan, a middle Nascent Soul elder of the Heaven-Burying Hall, and killed him on Azure Delay Mountain after destroying his soul puppets and spiritual treasure. Badly drained by the battle, Han Yi took Yan Zhan’s possessions and hurried south to return to his sect.

• Han Yi activated three fourth-tier spirit talismans against the hidden cultivator, but Yan Zhan emerged and dispelled their attacks with ease.

• After recovering from his battles, Han Yi reviewed his new Nascent Soul realm, gains, and plans for cultivating divine abilities and finding a stronger cultivation technique.

• Han Yi learned that Sumeru Valley was provoking the weakened sect again, while the reason for its aggression remained unclear.
• Han Yi revealed to Zhuge Wuyou and Si Hongxue that he had met the missing Sect Master, Yuan Shun.

• Han Yi used his silver bell to destroy the souls of Sumeru Valley’s cultivators and beasts, annihilating the entire sect.

Han Yi destroyed Sumeru Valley and crippled Flying Thunder Mountain, then strengthened the Mystic Pill Sect and advanced his Disguise Art into the divine power Form-Shifting. As he prepared to continue cultivating, a late Nascent Soul cultivator arrived and gave him an invitation to the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly.

• Han Yi used the Soul-Slaying Bell to kill everyone in Sumeru Valley and told Shen Ping to turn its territory into a Mystic Pill Sect branch.
• Han Yi killed Flying Thunder Mountain’s Golden Core cultivators and several Foundation Establishment cultivators, leaving the remaining bandits as a trial for the sect.
• Han Yi returned to the Mystic Pill Sect, placed his soul slaves Xi Zhong and Tian Dehai on guard, and began cultivating the Free-and-Easy Scripture and Disguise Art.
• Han Yi advanced the Disguise Art to the Extreme Realm and used its new Form-Shifting divine power to transform a monkey into a bear and a tree into a monkey.
• A cultivator from the Big Dipper Immortal Hall sensed a Divine Transformation aura near the Mystic Pill Sect and resolved to send the sect an invitation to the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly.
• A late Nascent Soul cultivator approached Han Yi, identified him, and gave him a gilded invitation bearing the words Big Dipper Immortal Assembly.

Han Yi learned that the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly would explore a dangerous Shattered Immortal Realm, but declined the invitation and returned to cultivating. After completing his Sword Realm skill and advancing to Nascent Soul, he displayed his identity at the Ten Thousand Arts Sect, then set out to search for the Green Duckweed Sword’s separated swords.

• Dong Hou of the Jade Balance Court invited Han Yi to the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly and explained the Big Dipper Immortal Hall’s ancient origins and its search for the cause of Great Luo’s destruction.
• Han Yi refused the invitation, suspected Dong Hou belonged to the Ten Thousand Star Sea, and ordered the Mystic Pill Sect to stay on guard before returning to cultivation.
• Han Yi advanced Sword Control Technique to the Extreme Realm, completed the Sword Realm skill, and left cultivation resources with the Mystic Pill Sect before departing three months later.
• Han Yi went to the Ten Thousand Arts Sect to challenge its True Monarchs and publicize his new Nascent Soul status, but learned they were absent and left without fighting.
• Han Yi guessed that Ten Thousand Arts True Monarch and Yuan Long had gone to the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly, then released the Green Duckweed Sword and asked it to sense the separated swords.

Han Yi recovered Star River True Lord’s storage ring and the Heavens True-Form Diagram, then used a half-immortal-grade Spirit Stone to improve his cultivation and refined several spirit treasures. His secluded cultivation was interrupted when Zhuge Wuyou reported that the Void Realm had descended in Myriad Demon Mountain.

• Han Yi followed Green Duckweed Sword toward a location also indicated by the Sui Zhu Token, but turned back to settle unfinished business first.
• Han Yi entered Star River True Lord’s cave in the Tangu Mountains and recovered the storage ring, the Heavens True-Form Diagram, and a half-immortal-grade Spirit Stone.

• Han Yi refined the Heavens True-Form Diagram and merged it into his World-Honored Robe, then began refining the Soul-Slaying Bell.
• Zhuge Wuyou interrupted Han Yi’s secluded cultivation to report that the Void Realm had descended in Myriad Demon Mountain.

A mysterious void realm projection spread across Myriad Demon Mountain, threatening to swallow Mystic Pill Sect and causing cultivators who entered it to disappear. After preparing a possible relocation to the Eastern Sea, Han Yi entered the contracting projection and arrived in a vast Dao field.

• Zhuge Wuyou told Han Yi that the projection was expanding toward Mystic Pill Sect and that Shen Ping and many other cultivators had vanished inside it.
• Han Yi examined the projection, set a boundary that would trigger the sect's relocation, and approved the elders' plan to move east to the Eastern Sea if necessary.
• The projection began contracting, but Han Yi told Lian Tingxi to keep watch and entered Myriad Demon Mountain to investigate it himself.
• Han Yi sensed that the Sui Zhu Token and Green Duckweed Sword were reacting to the projection, then stepped through its light curtain.
• After traveling through a passage and enduring an oppressive force, Han Yi landed in another world and saw a vast Dao field.

Han Yi entered the Azure Mystic Daoist Grounds, a vast Shattered Immortal Realm, and witnessed its green-robed guards effortlessly destroy powerful cultivators. After using Form-Shifting to hide Bai Yuya from a patrolling guard, Han Yi learned that Bai Yuya knew the grounds and began asking about their nature and how he had arrived.

• Han Yi followed the Green Duckweed Sword’s signal through the Daoist grounds and hid when eight Nascent Soul cultivators fled an immortal palace.
• A green-robed cultivator killed the eight with sword qi, and three concealed Deity Transformation cultivators seized the spirit treasures before the guard pursued them.
• Han Yi fled, then used Form-Shifting to conceal himself from another green-robed guard searching the grounds.
• After a guard slew a Deity Transformation cultivator and scattered the survivors, Han Yi recognized Baiyu True Monarch, Bai Yuya, and invited him to hide nearby.
• Han Yi transformed Bai Yuya’s aura to match the Daoist grounds, allowing them both to evade a third green-robed guard.
• Bai Yuya identified the location as the Azure Mystic Daoist Grounds and said Han Yi had entered through a projection after declining Dong Chang’s invitation to the Big Dipper Immortal Assembly.

Han Yi learned from Bai Yuya about the dangers and origins of the Azure Mystic Daoist Grounds, then continued searching for the Green Duckweed Sword’s separated swords. After recovering another sword and watching it transform into a spirit treasure, he sensed three demons arriving outside his cave.

• Bai Yuya told Han Yi that the Big Dipper Immortal Hall’s assembly had entered the Azure Mystic Daoist Grounds, where Azure Profound Immortal Guards and demon cultivators threatened the survivors.
• Han Yi declined Bai Yuya’s invitation to travel to the Immortal Hall’s rendezvous point and continued following the Green Duckweed Sword’s guidance, narrowly escaping two dangerous battles.
• Seven days later, Han Yi found another Green Duckweed Sword in an abandoned cave dwelling and began merging it with his sword.
• Three days later, the Green Duckweed Sword completed its transformation into a spirit treasure, revealing a terrifying sword phantom within its spirit treasure space.
• Han Yi sensed three demon auras arrive outside the cave dwelling.
