Fang Chen entered Yunxiang Mountain’s Second-Layer Space with the Moon Saint and learned that time flowed ten times faster there.

• Li Qingyao led Fang Chen, the Myna bird, and the Moon Saint past Qianyu and Qianshui and opened four barriers she had set up.
• Li Qingyao attacked the ancient barrier covered in Emperor Markings with nine peach blossoms, but her attempt failed.
• At the Moon Saint’s suggestion, Fang Chen touched the ancient barrier, and a golden ring spread across it, making it disappear.

Fang Chen, Li Qingyao, the Moon Saint, and Myna bird ventured through a strange passage whose Barriers and gravity tested them. After yellow water from one Barrier weakened the gravity, Fang Chen began digging at it again to draw out more.

• Fang Chen used the Reincarnation Eye Secret Technique to find a flaw in the first Barrier and opened it with a light touch.
• The group entered a section of the passage where powerful gravity pressed down on them, then continued onward.
• Fang Chen tried to open a second Barrier, but it squeezed his fingers and sprayed yellow water over the group.
• The yellow water produced Yellow Mist and temporarily eased the gravity on them before drying.
• Fang Chen examined the Barrier's shifted weak point and dug into it until water began flowing along his fingers.

• Fang Chen asked Little Crane to bring Xiao Yi and the others into the space, and she returned with Xiao Yi and the Chaos Demonic Star Vine.

Fang Chen welcomed Xiao Yi and the Chaos Demonic Star Vine into the Yunmeng Mountain Space, where plants grew a hundred times faster than outside. Xiao Yi left to move the Mysterious Jade Forest into the space, while Fang Chen and Li Qingyao discussed Yunxiang Mountain and the Ye Family’s growing threat.

• Xiao Yi discovered the Yunmeng Mountain Space’s abundant Spiritual Qi and accelerated growth, and Fang Chen agreed to let him and the Chaos Demonic Star Vine cultivate there.

• Li Qingyao learned that the Chaos Demonic Star Vine had survived six Heavenly Tribulations and recognized its exceptional strength.
• Li Qingyao explained how the Yaochi Holy Land had taken control of Yunxiang Mountain and how the Ye Family had tried to seize it.
• Fang Chen and Li Qingyao agreed that the Ye Family’s expansion had intensified since Ye Chen became a Quasi-Emperor.

• Li Qingyao proposed that Yaochi Holy Land and the Glazed Sword Sect develop Yunxiang Mountain together, and Fang Chen agreed to summon Saint Qingyuan and others.
• Li Qingyao left with the Moon Saint, leaving Fang Chen with the Myna bird, the Chaos Heart-Devouring Worm, and the Chaos Demonic Star Vine.

Fang Chen and Saint Qingyuan began developing Yunxiang Mountain, but after a month of failing to uncover its secrets, Fang Chen learned that Ye Chen and Li Changsheng had attacked Yaochi Holy Land. He rushed to help Li Qingyao, who was fighting both enemies in the Outer Heavens.

• Fang Chen explained Yunxiang Mountain’s plant-only Time Acceleration to Saint Qingyuan and arranged for the Glazed Sword Sect and Yaochi Holy Land to develop it together.
• Saint Qingyuan brought Spirit Planters and seedlings to Yunxiang Mountain, while Fang Chen and the Myna bird searched for clues about its Time Acceleration.

• Fang Chen and the Myna bird left Yunmeng Mountain Space and saw Li Qingyao fighting Ye Chen and Li Changsheng in the Outer Heavens, where the two attackers had her pinned down.

Fang Chen arrived at Yunxiang Mountain and fought Ye Chen while Li Qingyao faced Li Changsheng. Ye Chen trapped Fang Chen inside his Azure Yellow Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, leaving the fight unresolved.

• Li Changsheng struck Li Qingyao from behind with his Grand Seal and taunted her about Fang Chen.

• Fang Chen charged through the banner's divine light and struck at Ye Chen with the Floating Immortal Sword.
• Ye Chen unleashed Azure Yellow, forming a Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth that trapped Fang Chen and drew him toward a crushing landmass.

Fang Chen fought Ye Chen inside the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, using the Floating Immortal Sword to destroy the mountains Ye Chen summoned. As the sword fed him more power and his strength continued to rise, Fang Chen deliberately stayed trapped to use Ye Chen as a sharpening stone.

• Li Qingyao warned the Myna bird that Fang Chen was in danger, but the Myna bird assured her he could handle Ye Chen; Li Qingyao then focused on suppressing Li Changsheng.
• Ye Chen summoned a massive mountain from the Xuanhuang Banner, and Fang Chen merged with his Chaos Giant Manifestation and Glazed Golden Body before cleaving the mountain apart with the Floating Immortal Sword.
• Ye Chen repeatedly sent mountains crashing down on Fang Chen, while the Floating Immortal Sword absorbed energy from each clash and poured increasing power into Fang Chen.
• Onlookers assumed Fang Chen was wasting energy and would soon lose, but Fang Chen deliberately refrained from breaking free because fighting Ye Chen continued to strengthen him.

Fang Chen endured Ye Chen’s assault inside the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth while absorbing the Xuanhuang Banner’s Source Power through the Floating Immortal Sword. When Ye Chen unleashed the banner’s giant eyes, Fang Chen reflected their attack and left the Xuanhuang Banner weakened, then struck it with his sword.

• Fang Chen drew Source Power from the Xuanhuang Banner as he fought off Ye Chen’s Great Mountains, growing stronger over half an hour.

• Fang Chen reflected the beams with the Reincarnation Eye Secret Technique, making the giant eyes vanish and weakening the banner.
• Fang Chen swung the Floating Immortal Sword and slashed into the dimmed Xuanhuang Banner.

• Fang Chen battered Ye Chen's Xuanhuang Banner until it fled toward the Ye Family, while Li Qingyao struck Li Changsheng and forced him to retreat.

• Little Crane emerged from the Void before Fang Chen.

Fang Chen helped Xiao Yi transplant its kin into the Yunmeng Mountain Space, where Xiao Yi transformed a mountain range into a Mysterious Jade Forest. After Xiao Yi fell asleep from exhaustion, Fang Chen abandoned his study of Yunxiang Mountain’s Time Law and asked the Myna bird about cultivating Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth.

• Little Crane returned with Xiao Yi from the Qingyang Realm, and Fang Chen took them to the Yunmeng Mountain Space.
• Xiao Yi searched for a suitable home for its kin and chose a mountain range rich in Spiritual Power.
• Xiao Yi released its kin, transformed the mountains into Mysterious Jade Stone, and rapidly grew them into a Mysterious Jade Forest.
• The Myna bird suggested that the Mysterious Jade Forest might be a special treasure that only Xiao Yi could refine.
• Xiao Yi exhausted itself expanding the forest and fell asleep, while Fang Chen decided to stop studying Yunxiang Mountain’s Time Law.
• Fang Chen asked the Myna bird how to cultivate Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, and it said the method should be in the Ninth Secret Realm.

Fang Chen visited Yue Canglan to learn how to cultivate the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, and discovered Yue Canglan had already mastered its second form. Yue Canglan took Fang Chen to study the Chaos Holy Land’s cultivation insights, while warning that the divided Human Race might be unable to face the Devil Race’s growing strength.

• Fang Chen and Myna bird went to the Chaos Holy Land to ask Yue Canglan about cultivating the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth.
• Yue Canglan revealed his Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth and explained that he had mastered its second form after years of preparation.
• Yue Canglan offered to take Fang Chen to the Chaos Holy Land’s Golden Ground to study cultivation insights left by their seniors.
• Yue Canglan warned Fang Chen that the Devil Race was advancing quickly while the Human Race wasted strength fighting among itself.

Yue Canglan brought Fang Chen to the Chaos Pagoda and explained how it protected the Chaos Holy Land and preserved its complete legacy. Fang Chen learned that the Ye Family possessed a comparable treasure, the Xuanhuang Pagoda, which could shelter its people even if their territories were destroyed.

• Yue Canglan took Fang Chen through Chaos Space to see the Chaos Pagoda, the Chaos Holy Land’s strongest Emperor Weapon.
• Yue Canglan led Fang Chen and the myna bird inside the pagoda and explained that each of its nine floors was an immense Origin World space for cultivators of a corresponding realm.
• Fang Chen recognized that the Chaos Great Emperor may have gained the idea for the pagoda after seeing the Swallowing Heaven Tower at Red Stone Mountain.
• Yue Canglan explained that the Chaos Pagoda contained the Chaos Holy Land’s complete legacy and could shelter its people if the rest of the Holy Land fell.
• Fang Chen asked whether the Ye Family had a similar treasure, and Yue Canglan told him about the Xuanhuang Pagoda, the Ye Family’s comparable refuge.

Fang Chen entered the Chaos Pagoda’s Ninth Layer with Yue Canglan and reflected on the power of the Ancient Powers and the Glazed Sword Sect’s growing foundations. He believed the sect could eventually rise to the pinnacle, but the Devil Race held the initiative and could threaten the other continents once it had exhausted its own resources.

• Fang Chen considered how the Ye Family’s Xuanhuang Pagoda could withstand even a Great Emperor’s assault and learned how little was known about Great Emperors.
• Yue Canglan led Fang Chen and Myna bird into the Chaos Pagoda’s Ninth Layer, where dense Source Power of Emperors pressed on them.
• Fang Chen compared the Chaos Pagoda with the Glazed Sword Sect’s complete set of nine Ancient Heavenly Court Secret Realms and its damaged, single-layer Glazed Pagoda.
• Fang Chen judged that the Glazed Sword Sect had gained enough foundations and Quasi-Emperors to stand against Ancient Powers, but still needed time to grow.
• Fang Chen concluded that the Devil Race held the initiative and might attack other continents once its own resources could no longer sustain its growth.
