Chapter Summaries

Su Fan entered the Spatial Fragments and exploited the exploration mission’s rules by using Ghost Crow and Yaksha’s forces to rapidly claim a large territory. When rival cultivators converged on him, he prepared for their arrival, while a Celestial Race cultivator and a Mo Race cultivator began fighting nearby.

• Su Fan surveyed the barren Spatial Fragments, checked his map and positioning treasures, and learned that the mission rewarded explored territory and allowed cultivators to seize one another’s claims.
• Su Fan sent Ghost Crow to scout and ordered Yaksha to dispatch Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals, discovering that their exploration also expanded his territory.

• The Celestial Race cultivator answered with a golden beam that shot toward the incoming bone club.

A Celestial Race cultivator fought a Demon Race cultivator and the Ferocious Bear Great Demon, then overwhelmed them with a divine power. Su Fan ambushed the wounded pair and confronted the Celestial Race cultivator, whose confidence faltered when Su Fan’s sword strike carried Law Power.

• The Celestial Race cultivator and the Demon Race cultivator fought to a standstill until the Ferocious Bear Great Demon arrived, and the two joined forces against the Celestial Race cultivator.

• The Celestial Race cultivator blocked Su Fan’s sword aura, then saw a second sword strike containing Law Power and showed fear.

Su Fan and Xuxu killed the Celestial Race cultivator and destroyed his summoned Golden Armored Warrior, after which Su Fan crushed the cultivator’s Nascent Soul despite a threat from a powerful Celestial Race figure. As the Golden Insect King sent a vast swarm to attack him, Su Fan unleashed devastating cold-based abilities, leaving the swarm under assault.

• Su Fan ignored a threat from a high-ranking Celestial Race figure and crushed the cultivator’s Nascent Soul.
• Sister Zhen looted the battlefield as Su Fan noticed two approaching cultivators and a swarm summoned by the nearby Golden Insect King.
• Su Fan used Nine Nether Yellow Springs Rain to freeze and destroy large numbers of insects, then unleashed Bone Corroding Yin Wind Roll against the charging swarm.

Su Fan killed the Insect King and set out to deal with the last nearby cultivator, Wei Donglin of the Xuansu Star Domain. After they met and discussed the battles, Su Fan claimed he was injured, then entered his Portable Secret Realm to inspect his spoils and found little of value in the Celestial Race cultivator’s Storage Ring.

• The Insect King attacked Su Fan with a sound-wave divine ability, but Su Fan shattered it with Great Void Mind Severing Profound Sound, and Xuxu killed the wounded Insect King.

Su Fan secured the spoils from several alien cultivators, claimed a small territory at the edge of the Spatial Fragments, and fortified it before spending nearly a hundred days improving his combat arts. As battles elsewhere killed nearly half the mission’s participants, he remained hidden and prepared to take advantage of the fighting later.

• Su Fan sorted the spoils from the Celestial Race cultivator, Devil Race cultivator, Ferocious Bear Great Demon, and Ghost Face Moth Insect King, then absorbed the Celestial Race cultivator’s golden blood but sensed no change.
• Su Fan chose not to join the other Human Race cultivators or expand his territory, and instead assigned Ghost Soldiers, Ghost Generals, and the Ghost Crow to guard and patrol his isolated position.
• Su Fan erected the Eighth-tier Nine Heavens and Ten Lands Wuxing Black Tortoise Transformation Golden Immortal Array and spent the following months grinding his Daoist arts and body-path techniques to higher realms.
• After nearly a hundred days, Su Fan raised several sixth-tier Immortal Sect Daoist arts and Buddhist techniques to the True Intent Realm, and improved some Buddhist seals and body-path arts to the Evolutionary Realm.
• Meanwhile, brutal battles across the Spatial Fragments killed nearly half the mission’s elite cultivators, while Su Fan’s small red territory remained isolated at the northwest edge of the map.

Feng Qinglan used Xue Qi’s Yin-Yang Jade Pendant to locate Su Fan and set out to kill him for the sake of his younger brother, Feng Qingshu. Su Fan was waiting for him, and after ambushing Feng Qinglan’s party with two powerful Spell Paths, he left Feng Qinglan facing the next attack alone.

• Feng Qinglan learned that Xue Qi had a Yin-Yang Jade Pendant linked to Su Fan and paid him to reveal Su Fan’s location.
• Feng Qinglan found Su Fan on the map and brought Qingfeng and Xiao Yuan with him to confront and kill him.
• Su Fan detected the pendant’s signal, guessed that Xue Qi had betrayed him, and withdrew his formation so Feng Qinglan would not be frightened away.
• Feng Qinglan and his companions arrived, and Su Fan admitted he had been waiting for Feng Qinglan, who declared that Su Fan had to die for offending Feng Qingshu.
• Su Fan ambushed the group with Five Directions Evil-Exterminating Soul-Swaying Divine Thunder, severely injuring Qingfeng and Xiao Yuan, then killed them with Two Forms Micro Dust Yuan Magnetic Divine Light.
• Feng Qinglan survived behind his defensive Dao artifact, while Su Fan prepared to finish him off.

Su Fan overwhelmed Feng Qinglan, who had attacked him after the deaths of his fellow disciples, and killed him despite the many protective talismans and a powerful phantom protecting him. Feng Qinglan's death left Su Fan in a blood feud with the Feng Family, but he did not regret defending himself.

• Feng Qinglan attacked Su Fan with his Tai Xuan Ruyi Immortal Locking Ring while preparing a sixth-tier Dao art, but Su Fan knocked the ring away with his strengthened arm.
• Feng Qinglan tried to escape using an eighth-tier jade talisman, but Xuxu severed one of his arms and Su Fan's offensive immortal talisman shattered his defensive barrier.

• A humanoid phantom blocked the Thunderclap Sword, but Su Fan destroyed it with Limitless Slash and exposed Feng Qinglan to another attack.
• Su Fan's Thunderclap Sword pierced Feng Qinglan's head and killed him, leaving Su Fan facing a blood feud with the Feng Family.

Su Fan killed Feng Qinglan and his two companions, then collected their souls, corpses, and treasures. The Feng Family learned of Feng Qinglan’s death and sent Star Domain Flying Boats toward Qingluan Heaven, while Su Fan continued training inside the fragment space.

• Su Fan crushed Feng Qinglan’s Nascent Soul, gathered the three cultivators’ souls and corpses, and took their Storage Rings and treasures with Sister Zhen’s help.
• Su Fan found abundant resources, including five eighth-tier Jade Talismans, in the Storage Rings, though he found few Orthodox Inheritance Jade Slips.
• A Feng Family disciple reported that Feng Qinglan’s life tablet had shattered, and the family’s Void Refining Stage elders received their ancestor’s decree to avenge him.
• The Feng Family sent several Star Domain Flying Boats toward Qingluan Heaven, while Kunyuan Heaven disciples learned that Feng Qinglan’s aura had vanished.
• Xue Qi feared Su Fan was responsible for Feng Qinglan’s death, while Su Fan remained unaware and used the Game Panel to grind spells and divine abilities.

After months of cultivation, Su Fan saw that the Human Race star domains were in danger but left their defense to their disciples and set out with Ghost Crow and Yaksha. The Chaoguang Star Domain’s gathering site then came under attack from the Gantian Star Domain, whose Divine Descent breached one of its defensive arrays.

• Su Fan raised his Buddhist techniques to the True Intent Realm and several Dao arts and demonic abilities to the Evolutionary Realm, then checked a map showing the Celestial and Devil Races expanding into Xuansu Star Domain territory.
• Su Fan sent Yaksha to gather the Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals, then flew away on Ghost Crow without going to help the Human Race alliance.
• Su Long and Mu Yuan discussed their suspicions that Fan Su had killed Feng Qinglan and agreed to offer him whatever help they could after the mission.
• The Gantian Star Domain attacked the Chaoguang Star Domain’s gathering site, forcing its surviving disciples to take their defensive positions.
• Golden pillars and spears struck the defenses with the power of a Deity Transformation Stage cultivator, and one outer Immortal Array collapsed before the Celestial Race’s Divine Descent ended.

Jin Jiang’s Celestial Race forces began a sacrifice that summoned a Void Refining Stage-level divine soul, shattering two of the Chaoguang Star Domain’s defensive arrays and leaving Su Long’s group preparing for battle. Su Fan arrived near the besieged base and decided to sneak toward the Celestial Race’s altar to look for an opportunity.

• Jin Jiang ordered Wu Yang to finish the altar and instructed Ji Wu to send the enslaved servants into battle once the Chaoguang Star Domain’s defenses fell.
• Su Long and the sword cultivators worried that the Shenhai Star Domain had been delayed, while relying on their layered defensive arrays to buy time.
• The Celestial Race’s sacrifice summoned a powerful divine soul, whose strike destroyed the two outermost defensive arrays.
• Su Long called on everyone to prepare for battle after the golden pillar quickly recovered its power.
• Su Fan traveled to the Chaoguang Star Domain’s base on Ghost Crow and resolved to approach the altar despite his location appearing on the map.

Su Fan infiltrated a Celestial Race slave camp and freed its captives by killing the cultivator who controlled them. He then used the map to locate another nearby slave camp and moved toward it to continue his plan.

• Su Fan used a decoy to draw away Celestial Race cultivators, then slipped into a valley where Hu Fei and other cultivators were enslaved.
• Su Fan and Hu Fei communicated in writing, and Hu Fei explained that killing the Celestial Race cultivator who planted a golden seed was the only way to break the control.
• Su Fan asked where the valley’s guard was and left despite Hu Fei warning that hundreds of Celestial Race cultivators were nearby.
• Su Fan killed the guard and removed the golden seeds controlling the slaves, allowing the captives to flee; Hu Fei exchanged messages with Su Fan and escaped as well.
• Su Fan collected the guard’s corpse, checked the map, and headed toward another nearby slave camp.

Su Fan infiltrated the Celestial Race altar and killed its guards, then used the Witch Realm wooden carving and the Blood Shadow Descent God Great Formation to borrow immense power. As Celestial Race forces converged, he transformed into a colossal Demonic Body and brought an immortal hammer down on the golden statue.

• Ying Si raised the alarm after enslaved cultivators escaped from multiple locations, and Jin Jiang arrived to investigate.
• Jin Jiang deduced that Su Fan had used a clone to infiltrate the perimeter and suspected the altar was his real target.
• Su Fan slipped through the altar’s barrier with the Demon Slaying Sword and burned more than a dozen praying Celestial Race cultivators to ash with Netherworld Yin Fire.
• A frigid force from the golden statue seized Su Fan, but the little figure inside him drove it out; his Void Slash then failed to damage the statue.
• Su Fan used the Witch Realm wooden carving, corpses, and the Blood Shadow Descent God Great Formation to contact the Witch Realm and rise to Mid Stage Soul Transformation, then killed another group of guards with one sword strike.
• As Celestial Race cultivators gathered outside, Su Fan became a colossal Demonic Body, lifted the Demon Subduing Heaven Splitting Mountain Suppressing Hammer, and swung it at the golden statue.

Su Fan used the Demon Subduing Heaven Splitting Mountain Suppressing Hammer to devastate Jin Jiang and the Celestial Race cultivators, then confronted a Golden Armored Warrior summoned through their Divine Sacrifice. As the warrior’s Law Power descended, Su Fan gathered his Demonic Thought and unleashed Rage Slash.

• Jin Jiang led over a hundred Celestial Race cultivators toward the altar after a blood sacrifice and a giant hammer shattered its barrier.
• Su Fan transformed into a towering demonic form and killed more than thirty Celestial Race cultivators with the immortal hammer, then swept away their golden attacks and killed more.
• Jin Jiang ordered the surviving cultivators to activate Divine Sacrifice, summoning a Golden Armored Warrior whose aura neared the Void Refining Stage.
• Su Fan hurled the hammer at the Golden Armored Warrior, and their clash sent Jin Jiang and the remaining Celestial Race cultivators to their deaths while knocking the warrior away.
• Su Fan gathered a blood-colored storm and resonated with heaven and earth as the Golden Armored Warrior struck with Law Power; Su Fan answered with Rage Slash.

Su Fan destroyed the Celestial Race altar with a blood-sacrifice-powered hammer strike, but a powerful Celestial Race figure descended to confront him. As their battle shook the Chaoguang gathering place, Su Long and the others were nearly driven into demonic states by Deity Transformation Law Power before a sword strike dispelled their resentment.

• Su Long and Mu Yuan watched the Celestial Race besiege the Chaoguang gathering place while the Shenhai cultivators remained blocked nearby.
• A blood-red pillar appeared at the Celestial Race altar, and a cultivator from Chaoguang entered it and rose to Deity Transformation Stage.
• A gigantic hammer destroyed the altar’s golden pillar, and the shockwave damaged the defensive arrays around the gathering place.
• A golden Celestial Race figure descended with Half-step Void Refining Stage power, and the ensuing clash shattered the remaining arrays and injured Su Long, Mu Yuan, and the other cultivators.
• Deity Transformation Law Power stirred resentment among the gathered cultivators and nearly drove some into demonic states, but a Divine Soul Spell roused them.
• A sword strike tore through the void and released the cultivators’ pent-up grief and resentment, leading Su Long to suspect Fan Su had acted again.

Su Fan overwhelmed the Golden Armored Warrior with newly mastered Law Realm sword techniques, then crushed him with his Demonic Body and Vajra Demon Extinguishing Great Hand Seal. The upper-realm clone was left barely alive, and Su Fan ordered the Yaksha to tear out his living soul.

• Su Fan and the Golden Armored Warrior traded Law-powered attacks, and their clash devastated the battlefield, injuring or killing many Celestial Race cultivators and forcing the Chaoguang Star Domain disciples to raise Defensive Arrays.
• A moment of enlightenment let Su Fan advance the remaining seven techniques of the Nine Extremes Consecutive Slashes into the Law Realm, and he unleashed them against the Golden Armored Warrior.
• When the Golden Armored Warrior drew power from the upper realm, Su Fan transformed into his Demonic Body, charged in, and knocked him more than ten miles with a physical strike.
• Su Fan manifested a golden Buddha and struck the Golden Armored Warrior with the Vajra Demon Extinguishing Great Hand Seal, reducing him to a barely living wreck beneath a gigantic handprint.
• Su Fan summoned the Yaksha from the Gathering Yin Secret Realm and ordered it to rip out the Golden Armored Warrior's living soul, promising to bear the consequences.

Su Fan defeated the Celestial Race forces in the fragment space, captured the Golden Armored Warrior’s Yin God, and survived retaliation from an upper-realm powerhouse thanks to a Human Race protector. With the Gantian Star Domain’s army nearly wiped out and the Human Race forces counterattacking, Su Fan withdrew to his Portable Secret Realm to inspect his spoils.

• Su Fan sealed the Golden Armored Warrior’s Yin God and sent Yaksha to take it back for processing.
• An upper-realm Celestial Race powerhouse attacked Su Fan with a terrifying aura, but a Human Race powerhouse intervened and protected him.
• Su Fan sent Sister Zhen to collect Celestial Race corpses, then rode the Ghost Crow toward Han Yi and the surviving Celestial Race cultivators.
• Han Yi’s group activated Divine Sacrifice and attacked, but Su Fan’s Whirlwind Slash annihilated them and carved away the surrounding mountains.
• The Human Race forces of the Chaoguang and Shenhai Star Domains launched a counterattack, leaving fewer than ten of the Gantian Star Domain’s nearly one thousand Celestial Race cultivators alive.
• Su Fan returned to his Portable Secret Realm, received the collected Storage Rings from Sister Zhen, and entered the Thatched Cottage to examine his spoils.

Su Fan sorted through the spoils he had taken from the Celestial Race, secured their corpses and Shade Souls for Yaksha, and reached an agreement with a Witch Realm power to make future blood sacrifices. When Xue Qi arrived to speak with him, Su Fan demanded that the demonic cultivator kill himself.

• Su Fan handed Sister Zhen the Storage Rings to sort and gave Yaksha the Celestial Race corpses and Shade Souls.
• Su Fan contacted the Witch Realm power through the statue, learned it could not locate Witch God Aji, and agreed to make future blood sacrifices in exchange for help.
• Yaksha warned Su Fan that a Human Race cultivator was approaching, and Su Fan guessed it was Xue Qi.
• Su Fan left the Portable Secret Realm and waited for Xue Qi, then told him to kill himself.
• Xue Qi asked Su Fan to hear him out before deciding whether to kill him.

Su Fan learned that the Forgetfulness River Palace had uncovered his identity and threatened his family, so he bound Xue Qi to himself with Spirit Seeding Magic instead of killing him. After turning away visiting cultivators who wanted him to lead their campaign, Su Fan reviewed the shifting star-domain alliances and prepared to contact the Witch Realm through the wooden carving.

• Xue Qi showed Su Fan the Forgetfulness River Palace's bounty list, which contained details about Su Fan's family and friends, and explained his history with the organization and his enemies.
• Su Fan lowered his killing intent, planted Spirit Seeding Magic in Xue Qi's sea of consciousness, and ordered him to return after the mission.
• Yaksha alerted Su Fan that several people were approaching, and Su Long, Senior Brother Mu Yuan, and others arrived to ask him to oversee their efforts.
• Su Fan refused to lead the group, claiming he needed to recover, and told them to copy any worthwhile inheritance for him.
• Su Fan examined the map, saw that the Devil Race star domains had withdrawn and the Human Race star domains were converging, then took out the Witch Sect wooden carving to contact the Witch Realm.

Su Fan traded corpses for systematic Witchcraft Path instruction while terrorizing foreign cultivators in the fragment space, killing hundreds before the mission ended. Xue Qi warned that Su Fan’s enormous territory had put him first in the Chaoguang Star Domain competition rankings, forcing him to plan to disappear and assume a new identity.

• Su Fan bargained with a great figure from the Witch Realm and secured basic Witchcraft Path teachings and a legacy in exchange for four Nascent Soul Realm cultivators’ corpses a day.
• Su Fan spent the mission raiding Devil Race, Demon Race, and insect race territory, killing hundreds of cultivators and frightening the survivors.
• Su Fan returned to his secret realm, where Sister Zhen prepared food and the Evil Buddha’s remnant soul offered him a dual-cultivation legacy before Su Fan put the lamp away.
• Xue Qi showed Su Fan the changed light-screen map and warned that his territory would make him first in the competition’s battle-record rankings, drawing attention to his identity.
• Su Fan decided to abandon his current identity and hide after returning to the Chaoguang Star Domain, while Xue Qi offered to help him find a safe place.

Su Fan returned from the fragment space as a celebrated hero, but he remained focused on escaping the Forgetfulness River Palace and the Feng Family’s retaliation. After receiving honors and rewards at the Heavenly Ruins Market, he reunited with Chen Rong in his new Cave Mansion.

• Xue Qi told Su Fan about several escape routes and warned that he might need to abandon his own identity because of the Forgetfulness River Palace’s investigation.
• Su Fan resolved to kill Feng Qingshu before changing identities, then left the fragment space when the mission ended.
• The Chaoguang Star Domain cultivators returned to the Heavenly Ruins Market, where they waited for Su Fan to disembark first and Void Refining Stage figures praised and rewarded him.
• Su Fan attended a banquet celebrating the Chaoguang Star Domain’s victory and his first-place ranking, then moved into a luxurious Cave Mansion.
• Chen Rong and other female Golden Core cultivators welcomed Su Fan, who sent the others away and pulled Chen Rong into his arms.
