Wang Yu and the others rescued Hou Feiqi from three Fierce Demons after learning he might be the favored descendant of a Thousand Mountains Academy master who could help them escape. Wang Yu revealed his strength and killed the demons, then joined the group as they carried Hou Feiqi to safety, though he and Ming Dewang remained unsure whether Hou Feiqi was genuine.

• Wang Yu returned to the group after devouring and fusing Fierce Demon bloodlines, but his Level Eleven bloodline traits did not advance.
• Cai He and Ming Dewang led the group onward to search for humans and a way out, and more survivors joined them, including Ke Lanruo of the Genshan Sect.

• The group encountered and swiftly killed several Fierce Demons, and Wang Yu judged Ke Lanruo to be among their strongest fighters.
• After Wang Yu stored the Fierce Demon corpses, strange impacts shook the surrounding space, and he suspected someone outside the Demon Fiend Land had come to rescue them.

Wang Yu and the others watched as ancient Humanity forces broke open the seal over Demon Fiend Land, allowing powerful figures to arrive and retrieve their companions. As Yun Yao, Shang Shan, and Liang Cai remained behind, the Screaming Dragon Hosts prepared to test their strength against them.

• Wang Yu saw the seal weaken and sent Augusto instructions to escape through the teleportation gate if it reappeared.
• A group of Screaming Dragon Hosts arrived as a Space Rift opened, and Yun Yao emerged on a multicolored luan bird to collect Xiao Xiao and the Dragon Sparrow Gate disciples.

• Augusto reported that the teleportation gate had reappeared, and Wang Yu told him to return with it and send back his intelligence.
• After the other powerful visitors departed, the Purple Armored Man ordered the Screaming Dragon Hosts to fight, and the Plain-clothed Scholar summoned powerful humanoid Fierce Demons from a golden array.

Fairy Yun Yao effortlessly defeated the Screaming Dragon Hosts’ forces, though the four leaders escaped. With the crisis over, Wang Yu accepted Ming Dewang’s invitation to travel to the Ancient Human Lands and visit the Dragon Sparrow Gate.

• Yun Yao struck Hou Feiqi and ordered Liang Cai to disperse his Spirit Seed as punishment for staring at her.
• Ming Dewang, Wang Yu, and the others entered the Space Rift on Yun Yao’s luan bird, while the Screaming Dragon Hosts later returned to study the passage.
• Human cultivators used the open Space Rift to leave the Demon Fiend Land, and the passage closed after the rescuers had returned.
• Yun Yao’s group emerged onto a vast, energy-rich plain in the Immortal Emperor’s lineage territory, where Ming Dewang told Wang Yu that Boundary Breaking Mountain lay to the north.
• Yun Yao left with Xiao Xiao, while Wang Yu surveyed the unfamiliar land and its powerful beasts.

On the way to Dragon Sparrow Gate, they encountered an Ancient Roc hatchling, escaped its attack, and learned it lived near Boundary Breaking Mountain.

• Fu Shan told Lian Qingyun, Ming Dewang, and Wang Yu that his family had pushed him into cultivation despite his preference for a peaceful life in the Mortal Realm.

He left to travel through Qi Pan Kingdom, where he encountered fierce beasts and ordinary villagers, then continued along the main road while keeping up his cultivation.

• Old Monster Ye spared Ming Dewang, Lian Qingyun, Fu Shan, and Wang Yu after learning Lian Qingyun was related to Lian Qingcheng, and asked them to deliver a request for Heavenly Immortal Brew.

• Wang Yu reached the main road and continued his journey by day, meditating and cultivating at night.

Wang Yu traveled toward An City, learning about the nearby Dragon Sparrow Gate and intervening when wounded fighters nearly destroyed a roadside tea stall. After dealing with the men who confronted him, he reached An City and considered the Qi Pan Kingdom’s hidden ties to the Cultivation World.

• Wang Yu bought tea from an old stall owner, learned that An City was half a day away, and heard that Dragon Sparrow Gate only recruited disciples in the latter half of the year.
• Five wounded riders charged toward the tea stall, and Wang Yu stopped their horses with pebbles before the riders could hurt anyone.

• Wang Yu watched Young General Xiang lead troops along the main avenue and used his perception to discover hundreds of Star Envoys and three Star Spirit Users in the City Lord's Manor.

• Wang Yu spent several days wandering An City, and his impatience gradually eased.
• Lei Hu confronted Wang Yu about the four Blood Crow Society members he had injured, but Wang Yu destroyed the bones in Lei Hu's arm and seized him.
• Wang Yu told Lei Hu to take him to the Blood Crow Society.

Wang Yu subdued Blood Crow Society leader Gan Xing and enslaved him, then learned the gang was backed by the Dragon Sparrow Gate and entangled in its conflict with the Dragon Taming Gate. As the fighting in An City escalated, Wang Yu left to seek a secluded place to cultivate and strengthen himself.

• Gan Xing ordered his men to question a captured Snake Rearing Gang member before Lei Hu entered with Wang Yu, who announced that he wanted to plant an informant in the Blood Crow Society.
• Several Blood Crow Society members attacked Wang Yu, but he injured them effortlessly and caught Gan Xing’s Spirit Treasure-grade swords when Gan Xing attacked.

• Wang Yu headed into the wilderness to find a secluded cultivation site and caught and ate a venomous snake’s gallbladders along the way.

Wang Yu settled on a high slope as his cultivation ground, subdued its powerful gray bear, and began training there. He discovered that the Star Mark could finally reach the Time Tower space, but its unstable opening was too small to use—until a familiar voice called to him through a Sound Transmission Talisman.

• Wang Yu chose the high slope for its dense energy and drove off a wart hog without killing it.

• Wang Yu told Dongfang Ji and the others that he had escaped the Demon Fiend Land and reached the Ancient Human Race’s land, and they discussed the possibility of relocating the Human Race there.
• Wang Yu described four Human Race Screaming Dragon Hosts, and Dongfang Ji identified them as former Ziwei Human Race figures Xiao Yuquan, Dongfang Yingrui, Ning Shixiu, and Chen Shengjie.
• Wang Yu kept in contact with Dongfang Ji every few months while cultivating in the Ancient Land, and he resolved to study spatial abilities to reopen the Exotic Space and potentially return to the Half-Rotating Star Domain.
• After five years of cultivation, Wang Yu had made steady progress with his Spirit Seed and was nearing the opening of his fourth Star Seal, while the large gray bear guarded his cave.
• A streak of light crashed near the hillside, and an injured man emerged from the crater after killing several wolves and absorbing their blood mist.
• The injured man swallowed a medicinal pill and cursed the Dragon Sparrow Gate.

Wang Yu captured and enslaved Pu Yiqi, a wounded Dragon Taming Gate disciple, then learned about the sect and its conflict with the Dragon Sparrow Gate.

• Wang Yu defeated the wounded Pu Yiqi, carried him to his cave, and planted an improved Soul Enslavement Seal in him.
• Wang Yu tested the seal’s control over Pu Yiqi and learned that the Dragon Taming Gate was scheming against the Dragon Sparrow Gate, though Pu Yiqi knew few details.
• Wang Yu made Pu Yiqi teach him the Dragon Taming Gate spell techniques he knew, then sent him back to gather more techniques and report intelligence.
• Over the next ten years, Wang Yu received occasional messages from Pu Yiqi, Gan Xing, and Yang Butong while cultivating in seclusion.
• The Ziwei Human Race grew to nearly twenty billion people and gained more Star Envoys and Great Star Envoys, while the Demon Fiend Land stayed quiet and Wang Yu heard nothing further about the four Screaming Dragon Hosts.

Wang Yu activated his fourth Star Seal, strengthened his Soul Body, and entered secluded cultivation to advance to the second stage of the Star Spirit Realm. Meanwhile, Divine Shaman completed humanity’s first Level 10 Rune, prompting the Human Emperor and his allies to advance plans for a teleportation gate to the Ancient Land and consider involving the Angel Race.

After emerging from more than forty years of seclusion, Wang Yu returned to An City and learned that the Dragon Taming Gate might have secretly taken control of its authorities. He decided to stay in the city while consolidating his newly advanced Spirit Seed, now strong enough to challenge major sects’ core disciples.

• Gan Xing reported that he suspected An City's authorities had been secretly controlled by the Dragon Taming Gate and that Dragon Sparrow Gate disciples might soon arrive.
• Wang Yu ended his seclusion, bid farewell to the large gray bear, and traveled toward An City in a carriage with a concealed Star Spirit User.

• Wang Yu examined his advanced Spirit Seed and concluded that he was now capable of challenging core disciples from major sects.

After reaching the second Star Spirit stage, Wang Yu tested the Ziwei Star Canon’s enhanced elemental powers and reflected on the spreading deathly aura.

The army destroyed the Blood Crow Society, but Gan Xing escaped An City with Wang Yu while the authorities searched for him. A week later, Dragon Sparrow Gate disciples investigated Gan Xing’s report and learned that Dragon Taming Gate had tried to frame their sect by manipulating An City’s Prefect.

• He Jiqi, Wei Shuwu, and Xiang Zhan led an assault on the Blood Crow Society, where rune traps and a counterattack threw the army into disarray.

• Xiao Kangtai forced Xu Jingyuan to lure the Dragon Taming Gate disciples into a trap, and several days later the Dragon Sparrow Gate attacked them at the government office.

• The Dragon Sparrow Gate gained the upper hand as the sect battle neared its end, and Wang Yu appeared before Ma Wei holding the corpse of the Dragon Taming Gate disciple Ma Wei had pursued.

Wang Yu subdued Ma Wei and extinguished the fires ravaging An City before learning why Gu Li was being hunted by the Ink Feather Demon Tower. After Gu Li departed to evade his pursuers and search for his missing adoptive father, Wang Yu left An City to investigate a strange phenomenon at Bone Stripping Mountain using information from Ma Wei.
