Chapter Summaries

Fang Chen and his companions entered Heaven and Earth Origin Space, where they discovered a vast red ocean that guarded the Heaven and Earth Origin. After testing the Red Water, Fang Chen realized they could remain inside for only three hours, and Ye Kong soon struggled to endure it.

• Fang Chen split the Heavenly Abyss Wall and led Little Crane through it while the Heavenly Slaves retreated from the Red Liquid.
• Fang Chen and Little Crane found themselves beneath a red ocean suspended above an endless Void, and Little Crane released the group from Spirit Crane Space because the Spatial Pressure was straining her.
• White Fox identified the ocean as Red Water, which legends said had formed from the blood and resentment of powerful cultivators who died in Heaven and Earth Origin Space.
• Fang Chen tested the Red Water with his Spiritual Sense, then entered it and found its pressure and corrosive Law rapidly consuming his Sky Origin Qi.
• Ye Qingci, Great Emperor Glazed Glass, and Ye Kong entered the Red Water, where Ye Kong quickly turned pale as his limited Sky Origin Qi began to run low.

Fang Chen and his allies crossed the dangerous Red Water in shifts, with each group using its Sky Origin Energy to carry the others farther. After Great Emperor Huo Li turned back, Ye Qingci took over the barrier and continued onward with Fang Chen and Little Crane.

• White Fox, Gu Daozi, and the others proposed taking the lead so Fang Chen's group could conserve Sky Origin Energy, and they guided everyone through the first stretch of Red Water.
• Fang Chen led the group around a powerful vortex after its pull shook their protective barrier.
• White Fox and Gu Daozi turned back after using nearly half their Sky Origin Energy, and the Nether Prison Immortal King's and Black Phoenix Immortal King's Clones took over.

• Great Emperor Huo Li led the group farther before retreating, and Ye Qingci took over the barrier with Fang Chen and Little Crane.

Fang Chen, Ye Qingci, and Little Crane entered the Clearwater Layer, where Fang Chen used the Floating Immortal Sword to absorb energy and replenish their Tianyuan Qi. They reached the Heaven and Earth Origin Core, but twelve powerful Law Spirits appeared to guard it.

• Ye Qingci warned Fang Chen that the Clearwater Layer's Assimilation Law could turn intruders into part of the Heaven and Earth Origin.
• Fang Chen used the Floating Immortal Sword to absorb energy from the golden seawater and transferred Tianyuan Qi to Ye Qingci, raising her reserves to five times their former amount.
• Fang Chen, Ye Qingci, and Little Crane traveled deeper into the Clearwater Layer and found the Heaven and Earth Origin Core.
• Twelve Law Spirits emerged around the Core, including Space, Time, and Fusion Law Spirits with the strength of Seven-Turn Immortal Kings.

• Over a hundred armed Law Spirits emerged around the core, and Fang Chen decided not to attack them directly.
• Ye Qingci joined Fang Chen, and their Sky Origin Qi barriers merged into a larger bubble.

Fang Chen fought the Law Spirits to draw them away while Little Crane approached the Heaven and Earth Origin Core through the distorted space and time. She reached the core and glimpsed its intricate laws, but the nature of its innermost point remained beyond her grasp.

• Fang Chen attacked the Law Spirits, drawing most of them away from the Heaven and Earth Origin so Little Crane could approach it.
• Little Crane used her Space Law to turn invisible and slipped through the twisted space and shifting time around the core.
• Fang Chen unleashed his Sword Light against the guarding Law Spirits, but they re-formed after blocking it, and he remained surrounded by attackers.
• Little Crane drew on inherited memories from the Void Crane Clan to adapt to the distortions and advance steadily.
• Fang Chen endured mounting wounds as the Floating Immortal Sword restored his energy, while Ye Qingci watched without intervening.
• Little Crane reached the Heaven and Earth Origin Core and saw its changing patterns of laws surrounding a colorless, shapeless inner point.

Little Crane gathered Heaven and Earth Origin, then greedily drained the core with stolen Immortal Artifacts, awakening the World Will. She escaped its Time Erasure beams but was gravely wounded as she tried to reach Fang Chen.

• The Heaven and Earth Origin Space shook, the Law Spirits returned to the core, and the World Will fixed its attention on Little Crane.
• The World Will attacked Little Crane with Time Erasure beams; her Void Crane Bloodline formed a shield, but three beams wounded her before she fled toward Fang Chen.

Fang Chen escaped the collapsing Heaven and Earth Origin Space with Little Crane and Ye Qingci, but Little Crane was dying from attacks by the Time Law. As the group searched for the Tear of Flowing Time to save her, Lin Xiao revealed a Jade Box containing a mysterious time-related treasure.

• Fang Chen rescued Little Crane and Ye Qingci, escaped through the Redwater Layer, and reunited with White Fox and Great Emperor Glazed Glass.

• Lin Xiao opened a Jade Box containing a treasure that released a pure, ancient ripple of time and altered the perceived passage of time for everyone nearby.

After Gu Daozi identified Lin Xiao’s crystal as a Flowing Time’s Tear, the group learned it could extend Little Crane’s life by a year but could not heal her completely. Lin Xiao offered to sever his Cultivation so he could guide Fang Chen into the Heavenly Ruins to find more, and the chapter left the group recognizing the Void Crane Clan’s sacrifice.

• Gu Daozi identified the crystal Lin Xiao had found in the Heavenly Ruins as a Flowing Time’s Tear.

Fang Chen and his companions prepared to leave the Sea of Origin, but Ye Qingci urged them to strengthen themselves before entering the Abyss of Annihilation. Fang Chen activated the Time Bell with Heaven and Earth Origin and began testing its Time Acceleration.

• Lin Xiao agreed to help Little Crane recover, but Fang Chen asked him to wait until they reached the Land of Ending because their return journey remained dangerous.
• Fang Chen decided to carry the group back to the Outer Heavens inside the Swallowing Heaven Tower and distributed Void Treasure Bottles and Immortal Artifacts among them.
• Ye Qingci warned that the Devil Race would be waiting at the Abyss of Annihilation and suggested Fang Chen use the Heaven and Earth Origin to power the Time Bell and improve his strength.
• Fang Chen fed Heavenly Dao Origin into the Time Bell, activated Time Acceleration with Heaven and Earth Origin, and entered its silver-white sphere to test the altered flow of time.

Fang Chen cultivated inside the Time Bell, refining Heavenly Dao Origin while his companions absorbed Heaven and Earth Origin. After reaching Great Perfection Seven-Turn Immortal King, he forced more energy into himself to break through, and his body and Sea of Consciousness began transforming.

• Fang Chen increased the Time Bell's acceleration to one hundred times, then entered seclusion for a month outside while his companions guarded him and cultivated with Heaven and Earth Origin.
• Fang Chen refined Heavenly Dao Origin with help from the Heaven Origin Tree, Immortal-Veiling Umbrella, and Floating Immortal Sword, advancing from Initial Seven-Turn to Mid-Stage and then Late-Stage Seven-Turn Immortal King.
• White Fox and the others absorbed Heaven and Earth Origin, loosening White Fox's cultivation bottleneck and helping Gu Daozi recover his damaged Origin, while Lin Xiao declined to cultivate with it.
• Myna bird, the Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm, the Chaos Demonic Star Vine, and Fang Chen's other companions absorbed Heaven and Earth Origin, strengthening their bodies, Bloodlines, and Cultivation.
• After three years inside the Time Bell, Fang Chen had refined three hundred strands of Heavenly Dao Origin and reached Great Perfection Seven-Turn Immortal King, but he hit a bottleneck before Eight-Turn.
• Fang Chen drew Heaven and Earth Origin directly into himself, enduring severe damage as his body transformed and the Thirteenth Void Lotus began to bloom in his Sea of Consciousness.

Fang Chen emerged from eight years of cultivation inside the Time Bell at Eight-Turn Immortal King Perfection and prepared to return to the Land of Ending to find Time's Tear for Little Crane. Myna bird proposed weaponizing the Red Water, and Fang Chen planned to channel it through the Two Poles Heaven-Piercing Array as the group faced a difficult setup with little time.

• Fang Chen reached Eight-Turn Immortal King Perfection after refining three strands of Heaven and Earth Origin inside the Time Bell.
• Fang Chen told everyone he would enter the Abyss of Annihilation and seek Time's Tear to heal Little Crane, but they insisted on going with him.
• Myna bird proposed bottling Red Water from the Blood Sea to use against the Devil Race and other enemies.
• Fang Chen proposed using Formations to channel Red Water through a Spatial Passage when he broke through the Heavenly Abyss Wall.
• Gu Daozi explained that the Two Poles Heaven-Piercing Array required two Immortal Emperor-level experts, 108 Immortal King-grade assistants, and months of preparation, with less than a thirty percent chance of success.
• Fang Chen asked Gu Daozi for the Array Diagram, and Gu Daozi unfurled an ancient Beast-Hide Scroll.

Fang Chen began forming the Two Poles Heaven-Piercing Array alone, but the mysterious figure in his Innate Eight Trigrams Array Diagram took over and completed both formations and a passage between the Red Sea and the Heavenly Abyss Wall. With the path ready, Fang Chen prepared to break through the wall and release the Red Water, despite the danger to others trapped in the Abyss of Annihilation.

• Fang Chen projected his Innate Eight Trigrams Array Diagram and began forming the yang formation from the Red Sea’s corrosive water.
• Fang Chen suffered the formation’s backlash, but the mysterious figure in his diagram awakened and completed the yang formation in less than an incense stick’s time.
• Fang Chen flew to the Heavenly Abyss Wall, where the mysterious figure completed the yin formation and joined the two formations with a passage of chaos.
• Gu Daozi and the others recognized the figure’s array-making power, while the figure dissolved into runes and merged back into Fang Chen’s diagram.
• Fang Chen told the group they would try to rescue those trapped in the Abyss of Annihilation after pinning them down with Red Water, then walked toward the black wall with the Floating Immortal Sword.

The True Devil Kings dismissed the intruders’ chances until Fang Chen’s sword split the Heavenly Abyss Wall and his array flooded the Abyss of Annihilation with Red Water. The Red Water overwhelmed the fortress defenses, leaving the Bone-Eroding True Demon King and the devils trapped inside under attack.

• The Six-Eyed True Demon King, Bewitching Butterfly True Demon King, and Bone-Eroding True Demon King discussed the intruders and waited for the Heavenly Abyss Wall’s pressure to weaken.
• The Bone-Eroding True Demon King warned that the intruders’ unusual Sword Qi made them a serious threat, while the Six-Eyed True Demon King claimed his array would trap them.
• Fang Chen’s sword carved a vast breach through the Heavenly Abyss Wall, suppressing its ability to repair itself.
• The Six-Eyed True Demon King recognized the Red Water pouring through the breach and ordered the others to retreat.
• Fang Chen’s activated array channeled the Red Water into the Abyss of Annihilation, engulfing the fortress and dissolving many devils.
• The Bone-Eroding True Demon King reinforced the fortress barrier as the Red Water corroded it and began spraying through its cracks.

Fang Chen entered the Abyss of Annihilation through a Formation flooding it with red water and reached the Immortal-Locking Platform, where Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang and other Cultivators had been chained for millions of years. Unable to cut the Immortal-Binding Chains himself, Fang Chen released the Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm to try biting through them.

• The Six-Eyed True Demon King recognized that a Water-Drawing Grand Array was pouring Red Sea water into the Abyss of Annihilation, while the water corroded and assimilated the devils.
• Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang and the other chained Cultivators saw the red water reach the Immortal-Locking Platform and corrode the runes on their chains.
• Fang Chen emerged alone from the rift and crossed three thousand li, killing the devils who tried to stop him.
• Fang Chen reached the Immortal-Locking Platform and found only 137 Cultivators still alive there.
• Fang Chen failed to break an Immortal-Binding Chain with the Floating Immortal Sword, so he released the Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm.
• The Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm bit down on an Immortal-Binding Chain as its runes flashed and the chain shook.

Fang Chen freed the imprisoned Cultivators and Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang with the Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm, then fought Bone-Eroding, Six-Eyes, and Bewitching Butterfly as his sword absorbed their attacks and his aura rose toward the Nine-Turn Threshold. The three True Demon Kings summoned the Heavenly Abyss Demon Formation to stop his advance.

• The Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm broke the chains on all 135 Stone Pillars, and Fang Chen brought the rescued Cultivators into the Swallowing Heaven Tower.
• The Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm broke the nine chains binding Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang, and Fang Chen caught and rescued him.
• Bone-Eroding, Six-Eyes, and Bewitching Butterfly arrived together and attacked Fang Chen.
• Fang Chen used his sword and Darkness Devouring God Domain to devour their attacks, strengthening himself as he fought.
• Bone-Eroding called on the Heavenly Abyss Demon Formation after realizing Fang Chen was nearing the Nine-Turn Threshold.

Fang Chen fought the Bone-Eroding, Six-Eyed, and Bewitching Butterfly True Demon Kings in the Abyss of Annihilation, using their power to strengthen himself as the Heavenly Abyss Ninefold Demon-Suppressing Formation awakened. He broke through the Formation’s spatial seal, while the three devils realized he was nearing a breakthrough to the Ninth Turn.

• The three True Demon Kings burned their Essence Blood and unleashed Forbidden Arts against Fang Chen as the people inside the Swallowing Heaven Tower watched anxiously.
• Fang Chen met their attacks with Sword Shatters Xinghe, and the Floating Immortal Sword absorbed the devils’ energy and fed it back to him to heal and strengthen him.
• The Bone-Eroding True Demon King awakened the Heavenly Abyss Ninefold Demon-Suppressing Formation, whose power threatened even Ninth-Turn Immortal Emperors.
• Fang Chen charged the three True Demon Kings and repeatedly drew on their power, loosening the bottleneck at the peak of the Eighth Turn.
• The first layer of the Formation sealed space within ten thousand li, but Fang Chen struck through it with a sword blow three times stronger than before.

Fang Chen broke through to the Nine-Revolution Immortal King, destroyed the Heavenly Abyss Formation’s strongest defenses, and killed the three True Devil Kings. Their deaths awakened the Extinction Demon Emperor, whose coffin trembled deep beneath the Abyss of Annihilation.

• The Bone-Eroding True Demon King activated the Heavenly Abyss Formation’s Third Layer, but Fang Chen broke through to the Nine-Revolution Immortal King and severed its Earth Veins chains.
• The Bone-Eroding True Demon King summoned the Extinction Demon Emperor’s Demonic Shadow of Annihilation, and Fang Chen shattered it with a Silver River sword strike.
• The Floating Immortal Sword absorbed the shadow’s energy, healed Fang Chen, and raised his cultivation to Mid Ninth-Revolution.
• Fang Chen killed the Bone-Eroding, Six-Eyed, and Bewitching Butterfly True Demon Kings with Sword Shatters Xinghe.
• The three True Devil Kings’ deaths sent ripples to the Extinction Demon Emperor’s Slumbering Coffin, which trembled and shook the Abyss of Annihilation.

The Extinction Demon Emperor awakened in the Abyss of Annihilation and sent a powerful Clone to seize the Floating Immortal Sword and capture Fang Chen. Fang Chen refused to surrender, but the Clone’s first attack shattered his arm and badly wounded him.

• The Extinction Demon Emperor reviewed the battle in the Abyss of Annihilation and formed a Clone from Annihilation Origin.
• The Extinction Demon Emperor ordered his Clone to bring back the Floating Immortal Sword and extract Fang Chen’s soul.
• Fang Chen reached Ninth-Revolution Great Perfection as the Abyss of Annihilation shook with the Clone’s arrival.
• Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang warned Fang Chen that the Clone had at least Junior Immortal Emperor strength, while Ye Qingci urged him to find a way out.
• Fang Chen refused the Clone’s demand for the sword and challenged him to take it.
• The Clone used Annihilation Decay, shattering Fang Chen’s right arm and injuring his left shoulder despite the Floating Immortal Sword’s aid.

Fang Chen burned his strength and fled into the Red Water to escape the Extinction Demon Emperor's Clone, but the Clone pursued him and inflicted severe wounds. Fang Chen repeatedly struck back with Crimson Lotus Power and the Universe Curse Seal, planting both inside the Clone as their chase continued.

• Fang Chen used the Floating Immortal Battle Array and his strongest sword strike to escape into the Red Water, burning his Bloodline Power and Soul Power until his Cultivation fell.
• The Extinction Demon Emperor's Clone locked the Red Water around Fang Chen, but Fang Chen broke through and fled deeper into the sea despite being wounded by a blast of extinction energy.
• Fang Chen infused the Immortal Crossing Sword with Crimson Lotus Power and attacked the Clone, sending Crimson Lotus Power and the Universe Curse Seal into its body and Natal Demon Bead.
• Fang Chen continued fleeing through the dense Red Water while drawing energy from the Floating Immortal Sword, and the Clone chased him without being able to lock onto him with Spiritual Sense.
• Each time the Clone caught up, Fang Chen endured another devastating injury while forcing his way close to plant more Crimson Lotus Power and Universe Curse Seals.
