• Han Yi began collecting the valley's Purple Extreme Source Crystal shards as nearby Outer Dao Realm cultivators watched him.

• Han Yi exchanged the crystal shards he had collected for Life Seeds as the cultivators waited for more fragments to appear.

• Han Yi escaped more than a hundred immortal domains in a breath and saw the giant expand, its aura revealing the power of a peak Celestial Venerable.

Han Yi escaped the collapsing Demon-Sealing Grounds, where a peak Divine Venerable from Ancestor God Star fought the sealed fragment soul of the Ancestor Demon. After regrouping his scattered avatars and learning more about the battle, he traveled onward and returned to the Fuheng Dao Domain.

• Han Yi fled the ruins as the Ancestor Demon's fragment soul began breaking free, then saw Divine Venerable Yu Zong arrive and strike it with a giant axe.
• The clash destroyed the ruins and hurled Han Yi and his Dao Realm avatars across the chaos; Han Yi survived, repaired his eyes, and gathered ninety-eight remaining avatars.
• Han Yi reached a continent of the Fengdu God Clan, exchanged for a Star Map, and learned from Fengdu Li that Yu Zong had returned to Ancestor God Star after devastating the nearby chaos.
• Han Yi declined to visit Ancestor God Star and set out with his avatars toward the border of the Fuheng Dao Domain.
• Twenty-eight years later, Han Yi crossed the passage between the domains and returned to Fuheng.

Han Yi returned to the Fuheng Dao Domain with a growing company of Dao Realm incarnations and traveled back to the Primordial Grand World. After learning that Primordial Unity Heavenly Venerable had fallen and Sui Zhu Heavenly Venerable had yet to return, Han Yi reached Sui Zhu Immortal Court as three Dao Realm auras stirred on Sui Zhu Mountain.

• Han Yi crossed into the Fuheng Dao Domain with thirteen incarnations, including seven Immeasurable Realm God Clan members, and set out for Primordial Antiquity aboard a Dao Artifact.
• Han Yi passed a world collapsing under a Heavenly Venerable's watch, then fought tribulation cultivators along the way and killed an Outer Dao Realm Immortal Dao cultivator.
• After more than thirty years of travel, Han Yi arrived at the Primordial Grand World with eighteen incarnations and learned that Primordial Unity Heavenly Venerable had fallen while Sui Zhu Heavenly Venerable had not returned.
• Han Yi led his incarnations north toward Sui Zhu, ordered them to lie low outside the Sui Zhu Immortal Court, and approached the court as three Dao Realm auras stirred on Sui Zhu Mountain.

Han Yi returned to the Sui Zhu Immortal Court having advanced to the Dao Fruit realm, and his arrival gave its leaders hope amid growing threats from Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace. After learning that the absent Sui Zhu Immortal Venerable had left the court vulnerable, Han Yi was asked whether he could stop peak Outer Dao or Harmonized Dao attackers.

• Han Yi briefly revealed his aura near Sui Zhu Mountain, alerting the Immortal Court’s cultivators and prompting them to suspect he had returned.
• Han Yi met Xuancang, Wan Jie, and Yu Guang in Sui Zhu Hall, confirmed his Dao Fruit advancement, and congratulated Yu Guang on reaching the Dao realm.
• Han Yi recognized that Wan Jie had also reached the Dao Fruit realm, while Xuancang remained weakened by his injuries.
• Wan Jie explained that hostile Dao realm cultivators had repeatedly crossed the Immortal Court’s borders while the Sui Zhu Immortal Venerable remained absent.
• Wan Jie asked Han Yi whether he could stop peak Outer Dao or Harmonized Dao cultivators if they attacked.

Han Yi reassured Wan Jie, Xuancang, and Fei Yu that he could confront Outer Dao cultivators and might be able to fight Dao Integration cultivators with his evolved Void Sword Realm and other trump cards. After learning that the Eastern Sovereign Demon Court was collapsing, he sent his Wanming Incarnations to seize territory there, setting off a show of force that drew attention across the Great Luo Territory.

• Han Yi explained his strength against Outer Dao cultivators and described how his Void Sword Realm's Chaos power might let him contend with Dao Integration cultivators, though using his strongest trump cards would carry a steep price.
• Wan Jie told Han Yi that the Eastern Sovereign Demon Court was near destruction after Primordial Unity Heavenly Venerable's fall and Di Jun's disappearance, leaving it vulnerable to Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace.
• Han Yi decided to use his Wanming Incarnations to seize territory in the Eastern Sovereign Demon Court and sent eighteen of them across the border to begin the operation.
• One hundred and eighty-three cultivators emerged in the Eastern Sovereign Territory and split into five groups led by Li San and Si Kou Feiyu, among others.
• The five groups unleashed terrifying auras that alerted powers across the Great Luo Territory, including the Void Demon Palace, and startled Xuancang, Wan Jie, and Yu Guang on Sui Zhu Mountain.

Han Yi returned to Sui Zhu and, after sensing more than a hundred Dao Realm cultivators appear in the Eastern Sovereign Territory, went east to establish the Great Wilderness Dao Palace under the alias Huang. As he began putting his plans into motion, a giant golden egg within one of his Divine Aperture Worlds ignited with crimson-gold flames and emitted a faint aura.

• Han Yi concealed his control over the newly appeared factions and agreed to guard Sui Zhu’s eastern border while Xuancang, Wan Jie, and Yu Guang discussed the threat.
• Han Yi left Sui Zhu Mountain, checked on Heavenly Kui Mountain and the Mystic Pill Sect with his Dao Sense, and headed toward the Eastern Sovereign Territory.
• Han Yi disguised himself as a Dao Fruit Realm cultivator, took the name Huang, and ordered three Seekers faction incarnations to guard the Northern Abyss Immortal Domain.
• Han Yi met Li San and announced that he would establish the Great Wilderness Dao Palace, with Li San welcoming the plan.
• Han Yi sensed changes within a Divine Aperture World and saw crimson-gold flames spread across a massive golden egg, which began to emit a faint aura.

Han Yi’s five factions established themselves in the Eastern Sovereign Territory, drawing the attention of powerful forces across Daluo. As Xu Ling Daoist moved against the Great Wilderness Dao Palace, several observers sensed his External Dao aura suddenly collapse and wondered whether a Dao Integration cultivator was present.

• Han Yi sensed the giant egg’s longing for the Eastern Sovereign Demon Court and decided not to risk approaching the Demon Clan Ancestral Court.
• The Great Wilderness Dao Palace, Chaos God Pagoda, Storm Mountain, Radiant Prison Dao Court, and Azure Evil Palace became known across the Primordial Grand World, and Han Yi publicly used the name Desolation.
• Nangong Xiao ordered his people to monitor the newly established forces, while the Great Luo Dao Court’s eight Dao Ancestors discussed how to respond if they entered their territory.
• The First Elder of the Void Demon Palace learned about the five factions and ordered the elders to investigate them, especially the Great Wilderness Dao Palace.
• Purgatory Island’s Second Sacrificial Priest set out with the First Elder to inspect the Great Wilderness Dao Palace, then sensed Xu Ling Daoist’s External Dao aura vanish and reacted with shock.

Han Yi intercepted and killed Xu Ling Daoist, an injured Outer Dao cultivator who attacked the Great Wilderness Dao Palace to steal vitality. He captured Xu Ling Daoist’s high-grade silver pagoda and left after blocking Purgatory Island’s probing thought.

• Han Yi sensed an unfamiliar Outer Dao cultivator approaching the Great Wilderness Dao Palace and went to intercept him.
• Xu Ling Daoist, whose Outer Dao Dharma Form was collapsing, attacked Han Yi with the Xu Ling Pagoda to seize his life force and giant axe.
• Han Yi dodged the pagoda, pierced Xu Ling Daoist with Autumn Water, then killed him with a strike of his giant axe.
• Han Yi subdued the silver pagoda and stored it in his Divine Aperture World.
• Han Yi erased the lingering destructive power, blocked a probing thought from Purgatory Island, and vanished.

Han Yi killed Xu Ling Daoist, prompting powerful factions across the Great Luo Territory to reconsider intervening in Eastern Sovereign. After learning that Xu Ling Daoist’s sect had a wounded Outsider sealed away, Han Yi headed for the Xu Ling Sect to try to turn its Supreme Elder into a Wanming Incarnation, while the sect’s elders began reacting to Xu Ling Daoist’s death.

• The Void Demon Palace and Purgatory Island’s leaders decided against moving on Eastern Sovereign because they feared the powerful Outsider there and worried about their secluded masters’ conditions.
• Purple Extremity Dao Ancestor warned the Great Luo Dao Court’s cultivators to stay out of Eastern Sovereign, while other nearby powers also took notice of the fallen Outsider.
• Han Yi returned to the Great Wilderness Dao Palace and learned from the Xu Ling Pagoda that Xu Ling Daoist’s realm had collapsed after a strange Dao technique injured him.
• Han Yi learned that the Xu Ling Sect’s Supreme Elder was a wounded Outsider sealed in the sect’s forbidden grounds, and decided to capture him as a Wanming Incarnation.
• Han Yi disguised himself as Xu Ling Daoist and traveled toward the Xu Ling Sect; there, a Dao realm cultivator alerted the Second Elder, who summoned the Third Elder.

Han Yi pursued Daoist Kuihua after the Xu Ling Sect learned that its sect master's soul lamp had gone out. He overwhelmed the Second Elder in Chaos, leaving the Xu Ling Sect's fate in his hands.

• Hanging River Daoist reported that Xu Ling Daoist's soul lamp had gone out, and Daoist Kuihua ordered the news kept secret while he prepared to investigate.
• Daoist Kuihua left Jade Dragon Daoist in charge of the sect and departed under the pretense of seeking transcendent Dao traces.
• Han Yi noticed Daoist Kuihua leaving, followed him into Chaos, and concluded that he was going to investigate Xu Ling Daoist's fall.
• Daoist Kuihua tried to deter Han Yi by invoking the Xu Ling Sect's Outer Dao cultivators and Heavenly Venerable Chonglou, then attacked with a Dao talisman.
• Han Yi's Void Sword Realm devoured the talisman's attack, and he used divine power to suppress Daoist Kuihua as the void contracted around them.

Han Yi secretly took control of the Xu Ling Sect by turning its Dao realm cultivators and sealed Supreme Elder Huayi into Wanming Incarnations, then relocated Huayi as a defensive reserve near Sui Zhu. After learning that his killing of Daoist Xu Ling had driven outside factions away from Eastern Sovereign, Han Yi decided his five factions would stir up chaos themselves.

• Han Yi ordered Kui Hua to secretly summon Jade Dragon, then Jade Dragon helped bring the Xu Ling Sect’s six other Dao realm cultivators to Han Yi, who transformed all of them into Wanming Incarnations.
• Han Yi entered the Xu Ling Sect’s rear mountain, used the Taosi Divine Axe and Sealing God Art to suppress Huayi’s sealed Dao body, and branded Huayi’s Dao soul with the Wanming Book.
• Three days later, Huayi became Han Yi’s Outer Dao realm incarnation, and Han Yi moved Huayi’s Cave Heaven to a secluded mountain south of Sui Zhu as a defensive contingency.
• Han Yi learned that Daoist Xu Ling’s death had caused Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace to withdraw their Dao realm cultivators from Eastern Sovereign and restrict their forces from entering it.
• Han Yi realized the withdrawals would redirect attention toward Sui Zhu, Soaring Firmament, and Daluo, so he decided to have his five established factions stir up chaos.

Han Yi sent Dao Realm incarnations into Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace to keep them occupied, then entered the Jade Lake Divine Power World to uncover an ancient Divine Venerable’s inheritance. He took its world-stabilizing divine object, causing the world to collapse and alerting Grand God Mountain’s God Clan chiefs.

• Han Yi ordered seventy Dao Realm cultivators to spread unrest through Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace, while he withdrew to Sui Zhu.
• Han Yi entered the Divine Power World beneath Jade Lake and used his Infinite Divine Eyes to discover a hidden inheritance space guarded by the Axe Radiance Ancient Artifact.
• Han Yi opened the hidden space, removed its world-stabilizing divine object, and took the inheritance into his Divine Aperture World as the Divine Power World began to collapse.
• An Immortal Venerable of the Soaring Firmament Immortal Court and the Grand God Mountain representatives arrived to investigate the collapse.
• Ximen Hanxing sensed a God Clan member’s faint aura and briefly fixed his gaze on Si Kou Feiyu, who received Han Yi’s message to stay calm.
• Han Yi learned from Si Kou Feiyu’s report that Grand God Mountain had sensed the disturbance and realized its high-stage Infinite Realm experts were involved.

Han Yi discovered Gu She’s sealed secret trove and a drop of crimson-gold blood in the Divine Venerable’s collapsed Divine Aperture World. The blood transformed the Divine Power across his many Divine Aperture Worlds, and after 360 years of seclusion, Han Yi emerged from the great hall atop Heavenly Kui Mountain.

• Han Yi fled back to the Sui Zhu Immortal Court after suspecting that powerful god clans from Grand God Mountain were probing the area, then sealed himself inside the great hall on Heavenly Kui Mountain.
• Han Yi examined a bronze book labeled Gu She Secret Trove and a crimson-gold drop of blood, finding that he could open only the book’s first page and could not access its sealed space or turn the next page.
• Han Yi tried and failed to refine the drop of blood, then stored it in a Divine Aperture World, where it began glowing and transforming the Divine Power around it.
• Han Yi realized the drop was Divine Venerable essence blood that could raise his Divine Power’s quality toward the high stage of the Boundless Realm, and he let its radiance spread through his Divine Aperture Worlds.
• Han Yi immersed himself in the transformation for 360 years, while Dao conflicts continued across the Immemorial Continent, then emerged in the great hall atop Heavenly Kui Mountain.

After emerging from a 360-year seclusion, Han Yi learned that the Great Wilderness Dao Palace’s war with Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace had cost many Dao Realm lives. He reassured Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao Ancestor that the Great Wilderness Dao Palace would protect the Immortal Court, then pursued the Ancient Firmament Dao Stairway into the east.

• Han Yi learned that the Great Wilderness Dao Palace had lost twenty-three Dao Realm cultivators, while Purgatory Island and the Void Demon Palace had lost seven, and he considered warning their Outer Dao experts.
• Han Yi met Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao Ancestor, who confirmed that Xuancang and Yu Guang had entered Chaos to pursue the Ancient Firmament Dao Stairway.
• Han Yi revealed that the stairway was the damaged Celestial Venerable ancient artifact called the Ancient Firmament Seal, and Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao Ancestor gave him Xuancang’s lingering intent as a guide.
• Han Yi arranged for Li San and the Great Wilderness Dao Palace to help protect the Immortal Court if danger arose, then followed the guide eastward.
• Han Yi passed the Eastern Sovereign Ancestral Court and continued into the void, sensing movement from the enormous golden egg in his Divine Aperture World but not stopping.

Han Yi pursued the Ancient Firmament Seal through chaos and began refining it, only for it to fuse with its lost fragment and attack him. He used Life Seeds to raise his control, forcing the seal to flee, and chased after it while Xuancang and Yu Guang speculated about his strength.

• Han Yi followed Xuancang’s aura into chaos and found the Ancient Firmament Seal struggling to absorb its lost fragment while holding Xuancang, Yu Guang, and other cultivators in trial worlds.
• Han Yi entered the seal’s rosy domain and spent over a century refining it, reaching 79/100 progress before the seal fused with the fragment and cast him out.
• The Ancient Firmament Seal attacked Han Yi, but he spent Life Seeds to raise his refinement progress and gain greater control over it.
• The seal released the cultivators trapped in its trial worlds and fled through chaos, while Han Yi pursued it and told Xuancang and Yu Guang what he had discovered.
• Xuancang and Yu Guang stayed behind and speculated that Han Yi had reached the Harmony Dao Realm and might already possess an ancient artifact.

Han Yi pursued the Ancient Firmament Seal into the dangerous Land of Return to Ruin, where his panel began granting him world force. He was swept into the region’s shifting visions and faced relics and beings of terrifying power.

• Xuancang and Yu Guang left the chaos, fearing the Ancient Firmament Seal’s disturbance would attract stronger cultivators.
• Han Yi spent his remaining Life Seeds to raise his refinement of the Ancient Firmament Seal to 90/100, prompting its two wills to merge and accelerate away from him.
• The seal’s wills agreed to flee toward a dangerous region that could scatter intruders, and Han Yi followed it for seven years.
• The Ancient Firmament Seal entered the revolving chaotic space, and Han Yi followed, only to be pulled across a boundary by power he recognized as belonging to a Celestial Venerable.
• A young man at the region’s supreme location sensed a change in the Land of Return to Ruin but dismissed it as likely caused by the Dao Tomb.
• Han Yi’s panel began recording world force as he witnessed a colossal corpse, a nine-headed beast’s remains, and a ghostly sailboat before the shifting space finally stabilized.

Han Yi cautiously explored an ancient battlefield inside a strange, high-level void, where pressure from giant headless corpses and other dangerous beings suppressed his power. He discovered the battlefield lay atop an unimaginably vast artifact, but could not locate the Ancient Firmament Seal or find a way out; after seven years, his exploration had yielded only a broken stele inscribed with “Dao Spirit.”

• Han Yi entered the void and found two enormous headless bodies whose pressure nearly immobilized him, then slipped past them into the battlefield ruins as black insects gnawed at the space behind him.
• Han Yi examined the ruins and found that shattered weapons crumbled into deathly black fragments while the metal ground beneath them resisted even his Dao sword.
• Han Yi concluded that the battlefield rested on an enormous artifact, then failed to sense the Ancient Firmament Seal or contact his Dao Realm incarnations.
• Han Yi explored for months, avoided a lifelike seated corpse, and found a broken stone stele bearing the words “Dao Spirit,” which he stored in his Divine Aperture World.
• Han Yi spent seven years exploring the entire expanse but found no further gains or way out.
