• Linghu Xue honored the four slain Taiyuan Sword Dao disciples at Five Sword Mountain, and Su Hao recognized her rainbow-grade talent.

• Su Hao questioned True Lord Juyuan about why Mahayana cultivators could not ascend, and learned about the Severing of Heaven and Earth and the Human King's Power of Sealing Immortals.
• True Lord Juyuan told Su Hao that the Profound Yellow Sword could guide him to the ruins of the Human King's palace, where ascension remained possible.
• Su Hao suspected the Jade Origin Palace had arranged for True Lord Juyuan to relay the message, but resolved that Li Zhuo was the true Human King and waited for Zhan Xuan to act.
• Zhan Xuan used the Myriad Souls Pagoda to collect demon souls as the Ghost Brake Great Demon emerged from beneath Qinghe Continent and absorbed its demons.
• The Ghost Brake Great Demon seized Li Zhuo, then exploded and destroyed Qinghe Continent; Su Hao recognized Jing Chen nearby and demanded to know why he had let Li Zhuo be taken.

After the Ghost Brake Great Demon took Li Zhuo from the Chiqing Realm, Jing Chen delivered Su Hao the Buddhist Palace’s Eight Treasures Lotus Platform of Crossing Tribulations. Jing Chen then secretly planted ominous matter on the realm’s boundary to test whether Su Hao was worthy of becoming his junior brother.

He used Red Lotus Holy Water to mature the Mysterious Tribulation Five Aggregates Flower, which reached completion six months later.

• Su Hao rejected the idea of using the Eight Treasures Lotus Platform of Crossing Tribulations for now and harvested the demons' Talent Powers, gaining many treasures, including the Myriad Realms Curse Killing Order, Red Lotus Holy Water, and Array Core Essence.

• Su Hao used Array Core Essence to strengthen the Heaven Concealing Array until Su Mei could no longer sense what lay within it.
• Su Hao gave Gan Zi Immortal Crossing Creation Pills and three top-grade Dao Artifacts to distribute among the Loose Immortals, then sent suitable treasures to the Twelve Heavenly Maidens, Little Cai, and Little Jin.
• After half a year, the Mysterious Tribulation Five Aggregates Flower reached completion.

After the Mysterious Tribulation Five Aggregates Flower reached perfection, Su Hao absorbed it and spent ten years awakening the Through-Glimpse Divine Eye, which let him see distant events and glimpses of the past and future. He rescued Qin Yue from a heart demon, warned her of an enemy from her previous life, and returned to find the Buzhou Mountain Soul nearing another breakthrough.

• The Mysterious Tribulation Five Aggregates Flower reached perfection, and the Six-Tusked White Elephant, Su Mei, and the Golden Crow gathered outside Su Hao's sealed meditation chamber as powerful beings elsewhere sensed the flower's aura.
• Su Hao absorbed the flower and entered ten years of deep enlightenment, awakening the Through-Glimpse Divine Eye and the talent power Peering into Heaven (Seven-Colored).

• Su Hao dispelled Qin Yue's heart demon, taught her the Three Pure Divine Suppressing Dao Scripture, and warned that a powerful enemy from her previous life might seek revenge.
• Su Hao sensed that the Buzhou Mountain Soul would soon break through again, then returned to his cave abode, where the Six-Tusked White Elephant remarked on his changed eyes.

Su Hao used the Through-Glimpse Divine Eye to glimpse fragments of the future, including a vision of Granny Golden Flower and Daoist Yin being killed, and resolved not to let those visions control his choices. He sent the Demonic Fiend Clone and the Silver Moon Demon Lord through a hidden passage toward the Demon Realm, then sensed that the awakened Buzhou Mountain Soul might offer a way to break the stalemate over ascension.

• Su Hao discovered that the Through-Glimpse Divine Eye could not observe those closely tied to him, but it showed Lin Daosheng and Lin Ziyi’s limited prospects and a possible future in which Granny Golden Flower and Daoist Yin were killed.
• Su Hao concluded that the divine eye revealed only fragmented possibilities and resolved to use it sparingly rather than let it affect his decisions.
• Su Hao upgraded the Prison Spring Dragon Subduing Cauldron and Three Treasures Jade Lotus Divine Seat to immortal artifacts, then gave the Silver Moon Demon Lord a Purple Nether Demonic Jade.
• The Silver Moon Demon Lord agreed to follow the Demonic Fiend Clone through a spatial passage in the Nine Nether Absolute Land toward the Demon Realm, hoping to advance and eventually avenge himself against the Yaksha King.
• Su Hao lost contact with the Demonic Fiend Clone and Silver Moon Demon Lord after the Through-Glimpse Divine Eye reached its range limit, while no one in the Chiqing Realm had triggered an ascension tribulation for twenty years.
• The Buzhou Mountain Soul broke through its bottleneck, and Su Hao sensed it might provide the turning point needed to overcome the ascension impasse.

• Zhuge Zheng triggered and survived the Tribulation of Ascension, becoming the Chiqing Realm's first True Immortal in decades.
• Zhuge Zheng flew to Phoenix Perch Mountain, where he met Su Hao and secretly considered testing him and taking the dynasty's treasures.
• Zhuge Zheng challenged Su Hao to prove his strength, claiming he would submit if Su Hao defeated him.
• Su Hao explained that Zhuge Zheng's tribulation had made him an immortal of the Taihao Sacred Dynasty rather than the Immortal Realm.

Su Hao stripped Zhuge Zheng of his True Immortal Source after declaring that the Taihao Sacred Dynasty had reopened the path to ascension, then offered cultivators the chance to become immortals if they accepted lifelong ties to the dynasty. As more cultivators began ascending, Su Hao strengthened his physique and realized that Su Mei’s growth might allow the Chiqing Realm to become a Lesser Immortal Realm.

• Su Hao forced Zhuge Zheng to kneel, reclaimed the Immortal Qi and True Immortal Source he had absorbed, and watched him die as an ordinary mortal.
• Granny Golden Flower urged the gathered cultivators to recognize Su Hao’s authority, and Su Hao warned that anyone who accepted the dynasty’s immortal opportunity could never leave alive.
• Granny Golden Flower crossed her tribulation and became the Taihao Sacred Dynasty’s second True Immortal, while other cultivators began ascending and the treasure-hunting party led by True Person Gan Zi returned toward the dynasty.
• Su Hao absorbed Zhuge Zheng’s True Immortal Source, increased his physical strength fivefold, and decided to wait until enough True Immortals could protect the Chiqing Realm before facing his tribulation.
• Su Mei visited Su Hao, who realized that the mountain soul and the dynasty’s True Immortals had strengthened her and the Chiqing Realm’s providence, potentially allowing the realm to become a Lesser Immortal Realm.

Su Hao absorbed the origins of seven True Immortals and ordered the Taihao Sacred Dynasty to bring the Chiqing Realm’s sects and cultivators under its protection. True Person Gan Zi’s delegation demanded the Tathagata Zen Sect submit, but Jie Kong refused.

• Su Hao offered the remaining True Immortals a chance to submit; two joined, while he absorbed the origins of the other seven and strengthened his physique.
• Su Hao ordered True Person Gan Zi and his delegation to contact the Chiqing Realm’s Mahayana cultivators and first-rate sects, offering protection to those who joined and barring the rest from Tianyuan Continent.
• True Person Gan Zi and five other True Immortals visited the Tathagata Zen Sect and offered it a chance to submit to the Taihao Sacred Dynasty.
• Jie Kong refused to submit and challenged Gan Zi’s delegation to attack the Zen Sect.

Five years after the Taihao Sacred Dynasty gained dozens of True Immortals, Su Hao addressed the Chiqing Realm’s limits and then braved a heavenly tribulation to obtain another divine character curse. He acquired the Seal Character Curse and left the remaining curses still to be found.

• Ji Ruyue learned that Jade Pool Heaven would send an envoy and that the Jade Pool Sacred Sect must avoid making an enemy of the Taihao Sacred Dynasty.
• Over five years, the Twelve Heavenly Maidens reached the True Immortal Realm, while Little Cai and Little Jin advanced to the Mahayana Realm; Little Jin consumed more than thirty dragon veins.

• Su Hao went to Daoyuan Continent and challenged the blood-red heavenly tribulation with the Profound Yellow Sword, the World Annihilation Sword, and several Immortal Artifacts.
• Su Hao reached the divine altar and obtained the Seal Character Curse.

Su Hao gathered six curse characters, leaving the Heaven Character Curse as the Chiqing Realm’s restriction neared collapse. As True Immortals converged to seize it, True Person Gan Zi and thirty-two allies faced Shangguan Henyue, Daoist Hidden Sword, and Fairy Hundred Flowers, whose attack left the newcomers struggling.

• Su Hao gained the Perception, Strength, and Technique Character Curses over the following year, leaving only the Heaven Character Curse to complete the seven.

• Linghu Xue sensed the treasure and offered Su Hao help, but he told her to focus on cultivation.
• Daoist Hidden Sword, Shangguan Henyue, and Fairy Hundred Flowers arrived and demanded that True Person Gan Zi leave the curse character to them.
• True Person Gan Zi stood with thirty-two True Immortals and told the three visitors to leave.
• Shangguan Henyue attacked with his saber, and Gan Zi’s group barely neutralized the strike as Shangguan Henyue declared that he would kill them all alone.

After Zhan Xuan captured Daoist Hidden Sword and Fairy Hundred Flowers’s Primordial Spirits, Su Hao recruited him to train the Taihao Sacred Dynasty’s cultivators and rewarded his injured subordinates. Su Hao continued preparing to claim the Heaven Character Curse, and half a year later an envoy from Jade Pool Heaven arrived with Ji Ruyue.

• Zhan Xuan delivered Daoist Hidden Sword and Fairy Hundred Flowers’s Primordial Spirits to Su Hao, who stored them in the Myriad Souls Pagoda.
• Su Hao persuaded Zhan Xuan to teach the Taihao Sacred Dynasty’s cultivators in exchange for future guidance.

• Zhan Xuan opened a lecture hall on Wan Guang Peak, attracting cultivators and independent practitioners interested in joining the Taihao Sacred Dynasty.
• Half a year later, Jin Ji told Su Hao that Ji Ruyue and an envoy from Jade Pool Heaven had arrived at the Taihao Sacred Dynasty.

Luo Yujie met Su Hao at Wan Guang Peak and discovered that his power and fortune rivaled the Human King’s. She revealed that Jade Pool Heaven did not intend to make an enemy of him over the Primordial Mother Lotus Crystal, leaving their conflict temporarily settled.

• Luo Yujie’s Clear Golden Eyes failed to discern Su Hao’s realm, and she secretly probed him during their private meeting.
• Luo Yujie told Su Hao that many in the Immortal Realm believed Li Zhuo was the Human King, but she considered Su Hao no less extraordinary.
• Su Hao said Li Zhuo had been taken to the Demon Realm by a great demon and suggested the Buddhist Palace might know his whereabouts.
• Luo Yujie explained that Jade Pool Heaven viewed Su Hao obtaining the Primordial Mother Lotus Crystal as fate and had instructed her not to become his enemy.

Luo Yujie stayed at the Taihao Sacred Dynasty and revealed that Zhang Xingyou and Ji Ruyue had to bring the Jade Pool Sacred Sect under Su Hao’s authority. She argued that joining him was their best chance to survive the coming Demon Realm invasion and continue cultivating.

• Luo Yujie agreed to stay at the Taihao Sacred Dynasty for about a hundred years and discussed the Dao with Su Hao.
• Su Hao learned that Zhang Xingyou was a disciple of Water Moon Immortal Lord and had been reincarnated into the Chiqing Realm as punishment.
• Luo Yujie told Zhang Xingyou and Ji Ruyue that Li Zhuo had been captured and might be within the Demon Realm, but said his fate would protect him.
• Luo Yujie ordered Zhang Xingyou, Ji Ruyue, and the entire Jade Pool Sacred Sect to join the Taihao Sacred Dynasty and recognize Su Hao as supreme.
• Zhang Xingyou and Ji Ruyue resisted, but Luo Yujie asserted her authority and warned that refusing would leave them with only death or reincarnation.
• Luo Yujie urged them to accept, saying the Taihao Sacred Dynasty offered their best chance to survive and continue cultivating.

After the grand ceremony welcoming the Jade Pool Sacred Sect, Su Hao found Luo Yujie examining an altar protected by a restriction and a deadly Heavenly Dao Blood Tribulation. He offered to bet on whether he could retrieve the Heaven Character Curse, leaving Luo Yujie to challenge his wager.

• The Taihao Sacred Dynasty held a grand ceremony, where Su Hao appeared alongside its divine beasts and received the worship of more than a hundred thousand cultivators.
• Luo Yujie discovered an altar in the void bearing divine script for the character Heaven and assessed the restriction and Heavenly Dao Blood Tribulation protecting it.
• Su Hao appeared beside Luo Yujie, who assumed he had discovered the altar earlier but lacked confidence to take its treasure.
• Su Hao announced that he would collect the divine script and drew an ancient golden greatsword despite Luo Yujie's warning about the deadly tribulation.
• Su Hao bet that he would obtain the Heaven Character Curse and asked for Luo Yujie's most precious divine ability, secret art, or treasure if he succeeded; Luo Yujie rejected the Taihao Sacred Dynasty as a meaningful stake if he failed.

Su Hao destroyed the Giant Spirit God’s hand when it attacked through a passage from the Immortal Realm and absorbed the divine script. Back at Phoenix Perch Mountain, Luo Yujie began explaining the Heavenly Laws that governed the Heavenly Court and its forces.

• The Giant Spirit God’s hand struck at Su Hao and pulled the divine script toward the passage, but Su Hao’s sword light shattered it before he absorbed the script.
• Luo Yujie identified the passage as the Heavenly Gate’s Dharma Descent Platform and explained that the Giant Spirit God was Yue Shanting, a Heavenly General of the Heavenly Court.
• Luo Yujie suspected the Heavenly Emperor had ordered the attack to seize the divine script, while Su Hao considered that possibility and demanded the prize owed from their wager.
• Su Hao brought Luo Yujie to Phoenix Perch Mountain and asked why the Heavenly Court used the Dharma Descent Platform to interfere in the lower realms.
• Luo Yujie refused to answer at first, then explained that Heaven’s Laws were rules established by the Heavenly Court to bind beings and forces throughout the Immortal Realm.
