Chapter Summaries

Lu Chuan collected a Low-grade Heaven-tier Spirit Tool war blade and a bow and arrows that nearly reached Mid-grade Heaven-tier from Luo Yukun. When Xiao Yunshang reported a Longevity Cult stronghold under attack, Lu Chuan took the weapons and rushed to support her, ordering Fire Camp to move out.

• Luo Yukun presented Lu Chuan with a Low-grade Heaven-tier war blade and a bow and arrows nearly at Mid-grade Heaven-tier.
• Lu Chuan tested the blade, and its killing intent frightened Luo Yukun and Chen Qingfeng.
• Luo Yukun offered to accept only the remaining materials as payment for forging the weapons.
• Xiao Yunshang contacted Lu Chuan to report that her group had found and engaged a Longevity Cult stronghold and needed support.
• Lu Chuan ordered Chen Qingfeng to mobilize Fire Camp, stored the bow and arrows in the Green-skinned Gourd, and rushed to Xiao Yunshang's coordinates.

Lu Chuan raced to the Longevity Cult stronghold where Xiao Yunshang and her subordinates were being overwhelmed, then used the Soul Suppressing Demon Smiting Bell to save them. The surviving Demonic Martial Artists were badly wounded as Lu Chuan arrived to face them.

• Lu Chuan hurried across Star City while refining two Heaven-grade Spirit Weapons with his True Qi.
• At a Longevity Cult stronghold, Xiao Yunshang and her subordinates were trapped and attacked by more than a hundred Demonic Martial Artists.
• Just as the enemies' attacks were about to kill them, Lu Chuan used the Soul Suppressing Demon Smiting Bell to shield Xiao Yunshang's group and devastate the attackers.
• The surviving Demonic Martial Artists tried to flee, but Lu Chuan appeared before Xiao Yunshang and her allies.
• Lu Chuan marveled at the bell's power and wondered what he could do if he gained full control of the Supreme Dao Tool.

Lu Chuan sealed the Longevity Cult’s manor and began slaughtering its demonic martial artists after learning that a major ritual was underway underground. He left the surviving cultists fleeing toward the underground stronghold, where powerful enemies might still be waiting.

• Xiao Yunshang told Lu Chuan that more than twenty of her men had died and that the manor concealed an underground space where the Longevity Cult was conducting a ritual.
• Lu Chuan used a Sealing Talisman to trap everyone inside the manor and learned from the Wolf-Headed Demonic Martial Artist that five Great Grandmasters and at least twenty Grandmasters were present.
• Lu Chuan killed the Wolf-Headed Demonic Martial Artist with one slash, then cut the Tiger-Headed Demonic Martial Artist in half and crushed his head.
• The remaining demonic martial artists panicked, called for the Green Robe Emissaries, and fled toward the manor’s underground stronghold.

Lu Chuan broke into the Longevity Cult’s underground stronghold and fought through its defenses while the cult performed a Blood Sacrifice to summon a Demon General. He reached the ritual chamber and clashed with a blue-robed leader, but the sacrifice was still underway.

• Lu Chuan pursued fleeing Demonic Martial Artists underground, where a Demon Ghost drained three of them before he destroyed it with his Heart Burning Blade and Blade Intent.
• Lu Chuan detected the maze-like lower level and smashed through its reinforced floor to reach the second level.
• At the Blood Pool on the third level, five Green-robed leaders ordered Zi Shu, Chou Niu, and Wei Yang to take fifteen Red-robed Envoys and stop Lu Chuan.
• The remaining leaders resolved to finish the Blood Sacrifice, which they believed would summon a Demon General and turn Star City into a Demon Domain.
• Lu Chuan crashed into the ritual chamber and cut down cultists, but a blue-robed man struck him with a Blood Tiger and sent him flying onto a stalactite.

Lu Chuan stormed into the Longevity Cult’s cavern and slaughtered its Demonic Martial Artists while fusing the Hurricane Saber Technique and Thunderclap Saber Technique. As the surviving cultists fell, their blood flowed into the Blood Pool.

• Lu Chuan surprised the Longevity Cult forces in the cavern and dismissed the Green Robe Emissary’s threat.
• Zi Shu returned and attacked Lu Chuan, but Lu Chuan shattered his Profound Tier Spirit Weapon and killed him with one slash.

• The remaining Green Robe Emissaries and cultists fully Demonized and charged Lu Chuan to prevent the Blood Sacrifice from failing.
• Lu Chuan fused the Hurricane Saber Technique and Thunderclap Saber Technique as his slashes grew stronger and he slaughtered the Demonized fighters.
• The slain Demonic Martial Artists’ blood flowed into the Blood Pool without Lu Chuan noticing.

Lu Chuan killed the Longevity Cult’s remaining Demonic Martial Artists, but their blood completed a ritual that revived a powerful wolf-demon avatar. He confronted the avatar as it threatened to devour Star City and transform it into a Demon Domain.

• Lu Chuan used his Heaven-tier battle bow to kill the last nine fleeing Demonic Martial Artists and retrieved his arrows.
• The slain fighters’ blood flowed into the Blood Pool, forming a sphere that absorbed Lu Chuan’s attack and began to take shape as an Evil God avatar.
• Lu Chuan recorded the revival and sent the scene to the Demon Suppressing Division, then attacked the forming avatar again.
• The avatar became a towering wolf-headed demon with a spear, and its power began collapsing the cavern and underground space.
• Lu Chuan stood his ground and challenged the wolf demon, which vowed to devour him and Star City before striking at him with its palm.

Lu Chuan fought the Green Wolf Demon General and created a new Spirit Martial Art, but the demon nearly killed him before Liang Jingyu appeared and destroyed it. Liang Jingyu then left Lu Chuan wondering about Heaven's Gate Pass and the limits of physical cultivation.

• Under the Green Wolf Demon General's pressure, Lu Chuan fused the Hurricane Saber Technique and Thunderclap Saber Technique into a new Spirit Martial Art, but the demon struck him down with one palm.
• The Green Wolf Demon General tried to capture Lu Chuan alive, but Liang Jingyu arrived and shattered the demonic storm with Sword Qi.
• Liang Jingyu revealed that he had tracked the demon's plan to turn Star City into a Demon Domain and attacked its avatar.
• The Green Wolf Demon General transformed into countless wolves to flee, but Liang Jingyu sealed the cavern and destroyed them all.
• Lu Chuan thanked Liang Jingyu, who praised his strength and said he hoped to see him at Heaven's Gate Pass once he transcended the limits of the physical body.

After Liang Jingyu killed the Green Wolf Demon General’s incarnation, Lu Chuan discovered twenty-seven Soul Crystals in the Blood Pool and returned home to treat his injuries. The Demon General ordered the Longevity Cult to hunt Lu Chuan, while Lu Chuan realized creating the Wind and Thunder Saber Technique had greatly increased his Blade Intent.

• Lu Chuan found twenty-seven top-quality Low-grade Soul Crystals at the bottom of the Blood Pool and stored them in the Green-skinned Gourd.
• Lu Chuan searched the Dissolution Cave, then asked Xiao Yunshang to bring people in to handle the aftermath.

• Lu Chuan returned to his villa to treat his injuries and saw that the System Panel had replaced the Hurricane Saber Technique and Thunderclap Saber Technique with the Wind and Thunder Saber Technique.
• Lu Chuan noticed that creating the new Spirit Martial Art had increased his Blade Intent by nearly five percent and believed he had found a way to raise it quickly.

Lu Chuan recovered from his injuries and began preparing to break through to the Second Rank Gang Transformation Realm. Meanwhile, the Longevity Cult put a Myriad Beast Pill bounty on his head, and Lu Chuan continued cultivating without knowing he was being targeted.

• Lu Chuan took a healing pill and spirit medicines, saving his Soul Crystals for after his breakthrough.
• News spread through Star Town that Lu Chuan had destroyed a Longevity Cult stronghold, while the Heavenly Wolf Demon General and Liang Jingyu's involvement remained unreported.
• A masked Longevity Cult Helmsman ordered Lu Chuan killed and offered a Myriad Beast Pill to whoever brought back his head.
• The Helmsman warned the Longevity Cult members that a secret realm would open within seven days and that they must prioritize it after that deadline.
• Lu Chuan healed his injuries and used the Five Fiends True Fire Technique to temper his meridians and compress his True Qi toward a breakthrough.

Lu Chuan broke through to the Second Rank Gang Transformation Realm and began refining a Soul Crystal to cultivate the Star Silkworm Soul Nurturing Technique. When Xiao Yunshang warned him that the Longevity Cult had issued a kill order and a First Rank Divine Bridge Realm expert might attack, Lu Chuan sensed his enemies had already arrived.

• Lu Chuan liquefied his True Qi, formed Five Fiends True Gang, and advanced the Five Fiends True Fire Technique to its eighth layer.
• Lu Chuan assessed his new strength and began refining a Soul Crystal with the Star Silkworm Soul Nurturing Technique, discovering that fully absorbing one would take at least three days.
• Lu Chuan considered cultivating more saber techniques to raise his Blade Intent while the Soul Crystal gradually nourished his divine soul.
• Xiao Yunshang contacted Lu Chuan and warned him that the Longevity Cult had issued a kill order and that a First Rank Divine Bridge Realm expert might come after him.
• Lu Chuan sensed his attackers were already there and rushed out of the Martial Arts Room.

Lu Chuan faced three First Rank Divine Bridge Realm assassins from the Longevity Cult after they sealed off the villa district and cut off his communications. He badly wounded Yaksha and resisted another attacker’s spear with his Taowu Gang, then unleashed a storm of blade energy and a soul attack against all three.

• Three Longevity Cult experts confronted Lu Chuan and revealed they had sealed the villa district, preventing him from contacting the Demon Suppressing Division.
• Lu Chuan attacked Yaksha and wounded him severely with a blade strike infused with Destructive Power.
• Yaksha called for help, and the Scorpio-masked expert sent demonic mist at Lu Chuan as another attacker struck with a spear.
• Lu Chuan's Taowu Gang blocked the spear, astonishing the attackers with its defense.
• Lu Chuan swept the three experts into a storm of wind-and-thunder Blade Gang and attacked their souls with a scorching spiritual force.

Lu Chuan killed three First Rank Divine Bridge Realm True Men of the Longevity Cult, looted their Storage Bags, and found a thousand Spirit Stones. The Division Chief of the Demon Suppressing Division and Su Ying arrived, and Lu Chuan asked why they had come.

• Lu Chuan used the Heart Burning Blade and a powerful Qiongqi Gang strike to wound the three Longevity Cult True Men, then killed them with Blade Qi.
• Lu Chuan searched the three corpses and found three Storage Bags containing valuable items and about a thousand Spirit Stones.
• Lu Chuan stored the Spirit Stones in his Green-skinned Gourd and finished tallying the other loot.
• The Division Chief of the Demon Suppressing Division arrived with Su Ying, and Lu Chuan recognized him by Su Ying's deference and the man's strength.
• Lu Chuan greeted the Division Chief and Deputy Division Chief, then asked the Division Chief what had brought him there.

Division Chief Yang Chao met Lu Chuan after he killed three Longevity Cult experts and agreed to help him use himself as bait to lure the cult out. They had one week to draw the Longevity Cult into a trap before its larger plan in Star City came to fruition.

• Yang Chao revealed that he had come to protect Lu Chuan from a Longevity Cult assassin and praised Lu Chuan for defeating three First Rank True Men.
• Lu Chuan downplayed his victory, while Yang Chao recognized that he was concealing his true strength.
• Yang Chao warned Lu Chuan that the Longevity Cult would seek revenge and advised him to stay at the Demon Suppressing Division base.
• Lu Chuan proposed using himself as bait to lure the Longevity Cult into an ambush, and Yang Chao agreed to back the plan.
• Yang Chao gave Lu Chuan a jade token to summon him and said Su Ying would assist, but warned that they had at most one week before the cult's plan advanced.

After coordinating with Su Ying to prepare for the coming battle, Lu Chuan spent eighteen million Contribution Points on the Five Elements Arrow Technique. The Demon Suppressing Division delivered its Inheritance Talisman to his villa and warned him not to teach the technique without permission.

• Su Ying discussed plans with Lu Chuan for clearing Longevity Cult strongholds and dealing with Demonic Martial Artists, then took the three First Rank True Man corpses for research while leaving their Contribution Points to him.
• Lu Chuan checked the Demon Suppressing Division’s Spirit Martial Arts catalog and found that even the cheapest Spirit Weapons cost over a million Contribution Points.
• Lu Chuan chose the Mysterious Grade High-grade Five Elements Arrow Technique for seventeen million Contribution Points, believing it would pair well with his Five Fiends True Gang.
• A young man and woman from the Demon Suppressing Division’s Logistics Camp delivered the Inheritance Talisman to Lu Chuan after verifying his identity.
• The woman warned Lu Chuan that he could not teach the Spirit Martial Art to anyone without the Demon Suppressing Division’s permission.

Lu Chuan received the Five Elements Arrow Technique and used its inheritance to advance his skill to minor accomplishment. He failed to fuse arrows of multiple elements, but continued practicing with the goal of mastering the technique.

• Lu Chuan accepted the Inheritance Talisman for the Five Elements Arrow Technique and witnessed its power destroy a towering mountain.
• The inheritance merged Basic Archery and Meteor Arrow Technique into the Five Elements Arrow Technique, bringing it directly to minor accomplishment.
• Lu Chuan tried to combine all Five Elements into one arrow, but the unstable arrow shattered and its recoil injured his fingers.
• Lu Chuan attempted to fuse Wood and Fire arrows, but they exploded before they could combine.
• Lu Chuan drew his bow again and resolved to keep practicing until he succeeded.

Lu Chuan advanced to Fifth Order Heavenly Human after refining a Soul Crystal and decided to leave the city to finish cultivating his Five Elements Arrow Technique. The Longevity Cult dispatched four Divine Bridge Realm fighters to investigate and assassinate him, setting up another confrontation.

• The Longevity Cult learned that Poison Scorpion and the other two assassins were dead, then argued over whether to strike Lu Chuan immediately or investigate first.
• The Asura Mask ordered White Tiger, Heavenly Dog, Azure Dragon, and Jade Rabbit to check for powerful allies near Lu Chuan and kill him in one strike if the opportunity arose.
• Lu Chuan refined a Soul Crystal and advanced from Fourth Order Heavenly Human to Fifth Order Heavenly Human, expanding his spiritual perception to 3,200 meters.
• Lu Chuan decided to leave the city, both to test his nearly perfected Five Elements Arrow Technique and to lure the Longevity Cult into attacking him.

Lu Chuan drew four Longevity Cult Purple Robe Envoys into an ambush in the wilderness outside Star City and fought them off. He killed the Tengu Purple Robe Envoy, while the other three remained engaged with him.

• Four Longevity Cult Demonic Martial Artists learned that Lu Chuan had left Star City and decided to ambush him despite suspecting a trap.

• The other three Purple Robe Envoys joined the fight and attacked Lu Chuan from three directions.
• Lu Chuan used Taowu Gang to defend against their attacks and unleashed successive blade forces that split the Tengu Purple Robe Envoy in two.

Lu Chuan trapped the Longevity Cult Purple Robe Envoys and fought them with his newly advanced Spiritual Power. He left two of them badly wounded and remained determined to kill all three despite their threats.

• The White Tiger and Azure Dragon threatened Lu Chuan’s family, but he answered with another saber attack and appeared above the Jade Rabbit to strike at her head.

Lu Chuan killed Jade Rabbit, leaving only White Tiger and Azure Dragon alive, but White Tiger betrayed Azure Dragon and used a bronze war spear to transform into a monster with power beyond the Physical Secret Realm. The newly awakened White Tiger attacked Lu Chuan and vowed to swallow him alive.

• Lu Chuan used Mental Shock and Blade Qi to kill Jade Rabbit in less than three seconds.
• White Tiger and Azure Dragon begged Lu Chuan to spare them, offering compensation and promising the Longevity Cult would no longer oppose him.

• White Tiger attacked Lu Chuan with an enormous claw and declared that he would swallow him alive.

• Lu Chuan drew the spear up without touching it, intending to seal it and hand it to the Demon Suppressing Division.
• The spear transformed into a blood-colored rune and fused into Lu Chuan’s war blade, making it sharper and stronger while adding sinister Killing Intent.
