Huang Rui intercepted him with a demanding training plan for the campaign in Buddha Tower Country, but Jiang Chuan changed his mind when he learned he would earn Merit Points.

• Jiang Chuan repeatedly smashed the Mirage Dragon into the earth of Yangguang City as Zhou Yunxuan and the others arrived and witnessed the fight.

• Huang Rui told Jiang Chuan he would receive six hundred thousand Merit Points and said she would apply for additional rewards for his work.
• Jiang Chuan joked that he would ask the Skybreaker King to make him Nandu City Lord if his reward was too small, and Qu Shi entered the tent asking what he was supposed to be.

• Jiang Chuan enthusiastically supported Qu Shi’s bid to replace Duan Hong as Nandu City Lord, but Qu Shi promised to transfer him to the Border Defense Force rather than make him Deputy City Lord.
• Jiang Chuan told Qu Shi he would visit the Military Industry Department before going to Litian Immortal Palace to meet Commander Luo.
• Jiang Chuan showed Yan Yong and Wang Yifeng the suppressed Primordial Spirit of an Eighth Realm Mirage Dragon and demanded a treasure containing Water Transcendent Factors or the Power of Yin and Yang.

• Jiang Chuan argued with Luo Jianbai and Du Yi about becoming Deputy City Lord, proposing to turn obstructive officials into puppets before making them face his Dragon Serpent Combined Attack.
• Luo Jianbai and Du Yi led Jiang Chuan to a sealed room in the Litian Immortal Palace and warned him that the Immortal Tablet had driven the Litian Ancient Immortal mad.
• Jiang Chuan read the tablet’s name, Eternal Dao Tablet, and noticed the inscription, “Who can be eternal?”
• Jiang Chuan speculated that the inscription came from two ancient immortals debating whether anyone could attain eternity, then sat down to comprehend the tablet.
• Jiang Chuan witnessed an ocean turn into a desert, flourish into a forest, and burn in a lightning-triggered blaze, marveling at the Dao of Evolution and wondering if his earlier guess was wrong.

Jiang Chuan realized that comprehending the Dao of Evolution could offer a path to eternal existence, then entered a dangerous state of enlightenment. After his companions pulled him back, he was ordered to sign an observation form and visit the Military Industry Department for a treasure from Yan Yong.

• Jiang Chuan concluded that the Immortal Tablet’s Dao Principles of Evolution revealed how to attain eternity by governing the universe’s evolution.

• Du Yi gave Jiang Chuan an observation consent form and instructed him to check in every four hours before returning to the Cangwu Realm with Qu Shi and visiting Yan Yong at the Military Industry Department.

After more than a month in secluded cultivation, Jiang Chuan returned to Danyang City, collected his reforged Dao artifacts, and learned that the Cangwu Realm students were nearing the end of their cultivation opportunities. A sudden roar interrupted Qu Shi as she began to tell him what to do next.

• Du Yi told Jiang Chuan that his classmates had returned to the Cangwu Realm over a month earlier and gave him an encrypted phone after he signed the observation consent form.

• As Qu Shi began to explain what Jiang Chuan should do next, an ear-splitting roar interrupted her.

Jiang Chuan watched Qiuyue Bai’s Immortal Grade Golden Core phenomena and then refined the cloak, awakening several Dao Tool artifact spirits. After they smashed through the roof into Meng Nanxi’s room, he feared the mishap would ruin his reputation, and a new mermaid spirit appeared as he began refining the Long River Bottle.

• Qiuyue Bai’s breakthrough produced the Wood God and Thunder Shaking Nine Heavens phenomena, while Jiang Chuan joked with Qu Shi before fleeing her sword strike.
• Jiang Chuan refined the cloak and awakened the Four Spirits Demon Execution Sword’s artifact spirits, including a yellow dog resembling the one he had raised before transmigrating.

• Meng Nanxi defended Jiang Chuan and said she had evidence, but the chapter ended before she revealed it.

After returning from Litian Immortal Palace, Jiang Chuan caught up with Meng Nanxi and the others, then restored his Primordial Spirit by refining pills. Huang Rui gathered Class 2 and led them to Ascension Land, where she hoped they would obtain ancient immortal fortune and cultivate Immortal Qi.

• Meng Nanxi explained that Jiang Chuan had not damaged her roof out of lust, and she and the others told him what had happened while he was away.

• Huang Rui gathered Class 2 and led the students toward Ascension Land as Jiang Chuan wondered what fortune awaited them.

Jiang Chuan and Class 2 arrived at the Ascension Land, where Dao Beacons responded to those suited to ancient immortals’ lineages. Jiang Chuan’s overwhelming power awakened only one beacon, and Huang Rui discovered it belonged to a True Dragon Race demon immortal.

• Huang Rui explained that Dao Beacons drew in people compatible with an ancient immortal’s lineage and offered them trials for its fortune.
• Song Zhiyan triggered two Dao Beacons, while Meng Nanxi triggered four with the Nine Tribulations Immortal Canon.
• Jiang Chuan released the auras of his various techniques, but only one Dao Beacon responded despite his immense power.
• Huang Rui identified the responding beacon as one left by a True Dragon Race demon immortal, and Song Zhiyan teased Jiang Chuan that he was not human.
