Huang Dao, Cao Keji, and several other All Aperture Warriors forced trainees to surrender most of their points and blocked them from leaving the cafeteria. Su Tu intervened when Cao Keji attacked a trainee carrying a note marked with Su Tu’s name, then defeated the group and began demanding points from them.

• Cao Keji transferred 50,000 points to Su Tu, who turned to demand points from the remaining warriors.

Su Tu took points from Cao Keji and the other All Aperture Warriors, then refused to return them to trainees who had been robbed, leaving Cao Keji’s group to prey on the crowd again. After trainees lined up to pay Su Tu for protection, he reached 310,000 points and redeemed early entry to the North Sea Relic, prompting an emergency meeting in which the instructors approved opening it for him alone.

Su Tu entered the Immortal Relic, survived a deadly mental riddle by using the Heaven Flipping Seal, and found a ruined village from his dream where a voice claiming to be the Mystic Woman begged him to open a lit room. A system warning identified the voice as an evil god just as Chen Daowen learned that someone had already entered the relic.

Su Tu survived Kasderam’s attempt to erase his existence when Xiao Ba revealed its power and pulled the Evil God’s authority from the void. After Little Green consumed that authority and Su Tu gained the God Skill Mistake, he tested its limits and decided to search the village for the force that had sealed Kasderam.

• Su Tu ordered Xiao Ba to act, and Xiao Ba revealed its formidable true form before tearing Kasderam’s authority out of the void and swallowing it.
• Su Tu escaped the village center, then received the incomplete God Skill Mistake after Little Green devoured the authority Xiao Ba had brought back.
• Su Tu discovered that Mistake could briefly alter existence, but its immense Mind Power cost left him unable to use it effectively yet.
• Su Tu recovered with the Heart Furnace and chose to search the village for the hair woman and the force behind Kasderam’s seal.

Su Tu discovered that the village’s Infant Spirits had been made from sacrificed children and freed them by destroying the copper coins that bound them. As they vanished, they gave him the beginning of an Immortal Power cultivation incantation, leaving him convinced that the village’s mysteries and the woman of hair were guiding him toward its completion.

• As the Infant Spirits vanished, Su Tu heard an incomplete incantation explaining the fundamentals of refining Immortal Power and suspected the woman of hair had arranged for him to uncover it.

• Big Cat subjected the villagers’ True Spirits to torment, and the Village Chief pleaded for release and blamed A Chang for refusing to save the village from poverty and disaster.

During a drought, Niu Er brought the amnesiac A Chang to Cow Village, where they married and built a life together. The Village Chief and villagers discovered that A Chang’s tears and skin became precious treasures, then turned on her and Niu Er, ending with the Village Chief proposing to have children with the immortal.

Su Tu witnessed the truth of Cow Village’s crimes and the plow ox’s revenge through the spirits’ memories, then listened as A Chang’s hair revealed how Immortal Power was cultivated. He understood that Immortal Power came from forming the Five Palaces, but the final truth behind the gamble remained unknown.

• Big Cat showed Su Tu how Cow Village’s villagers murdered A Chang and turned her remains into wealth.
• The plow ox urged the villagers to make their wives consume A Chang’s flesh, promising that they would gain her blessings and become immortals.
• After Cow Village prospered, the plow ox attacked the Village Chief, revealed itself as A Chang’s Hair Woman, and annihilated the villagers.
• Su Tu withdrew his consciousness and listened to the woman’s incantation explaining that Immortal Power was born by cultivating the Five Palaces with Ancient Arts formulas.
• Su Tu realized that the Heaven Flipping Seal had briefly summoned the Five Palaces and produced Immortal Power when his qi became disordered.

Su Tu followed the strand of hair into a secret chamber, where a chained hair woman claimed to be Wa and told him the tragedy began with a wager over human nature. Su Tu saw through her account and identified the infant spirit Niu Er as the figure she had left out, just as Niu Er asked how Su Tu had figured it out.

• Su Tu followed the strand of hair through a passage lined with the unrotted corpses of women from Offering Cow Village and reached a chamber full of seals and restraints.

As he began breaking through, Chen Daowen and four other prodigies entered the North Sea Relic and discussed Su Tu and their past violence.

• Chen Daowen and four other prodigies arrived in the North Sea Relic, where they spoke eagerly about finding Su Tu and boasted about injuring others.

Chen Daowen and the other powerful-family geniuses entered the Immortal Relic after plundering the Training Camp and vowed to hunt Su Tu. Su Tu awakened to find that his fleshly evolution had opened fourteen Celestial Orifices and broken the record for Body Locks, with room to advance further.

• Chen Daowen recalled how Su Tu's notes had united the Training Camp students and disrupted his plans, while Instructor Yin Hu kept him busy with low-reward missions.
• Chen Daowen, Wang Gao, and Zhang Muye's group seized students' points, burned Su Tu's papers, and left Luo Fan badly injured and Xiong Lailer with a broken Martial Bone.

• Su Tu sensed that the Eight Nine Mysterious Art had strengthened his body and learned how to refine Immortal Power by tempering the Five Palaces.

• Su Tu broke Zhang Muye's limbs and killed him, citing his attack on Luo Fan and his mistreatment of the other trainees.

• Su Tu gave the youth a piece of meat, stopped him from taking more, and asked him to share his intelligence first.

Su Tu uncovered Chang Sheng’s deception in the North Sea Relic, beat him, and learned that Instructor Zishu had sent him to help. After initially refusing to travel together, Su Tu agreed when Chang Sheng mentioned Chen Daowen’s location, while Chen Daowen followed a White Jade Pendant’s guidance toward an unknown destination.

• A hooded man told Su Tu about the North Sea Relic, its sealed creatures, the Training Camp hunt, and a treasure that wielded Turbid Fire Power.
• Su Tu exposed the man’s attempt to deceive him, and Chang Sheng fled only to be forced back by Su Tu’s use of Error.
• Su Tu beat Chang Sheng, learned that he was Zi Shu’s student and had been sent to find and protect Su Tu, then refused to let him accompany him.
• Chang Sheng mentioned knowing Chen Daowen and Wang Gao’s locations, so Su Tu changed his mind and agreed to travel with him to hunt near Chen Daowen.
• Chen Daowen sent the Hua Brothers away and followed the light of a White Jade Pendant.

Chen Daowen lost the White Jade Pendant while trying to reach the hidden village, and it flew to Su Tu, where the White Tiger devoured it and strengthened Su Tu’s Divine Skill: Error.

• The Black Mist General asked Su Tu to release them, and the black mists offered to fight for him until their annihilation.

Su Tu awakened and bound a remnant army from the Gods and Demons Battlefield, then discovered their strength depended on Mind Power and devised a plan to use them as hired fighters. His renewed descent into the Bitter Sea stalled at the same depth, where strange voices called on him to bring hope to their people.

• The Black Mist General and his battle souls hailed Su Tu as a figure known since ancient times and begged to serve him, prompting him to wonder whether inscriptions on the Mind Power Origin transcended time.
• The battle souls offered Su Tu a tiger tally that placed their lives under his control, and he released them from their shackles by granting them permission to exist in the world.
• Su Tu ordered the army not to kneel and learned that its thousands of soldiers, ten generals, and commander could become extraordinarily powerful if supplied with enough Mind Power.
• After learning that other people's Mind Power could restore the army and that its soldiers could operate independently, Su Tu planned to pass them off as mysterious Immortal Relic treasures for the geniuses of great families to nurture.
• Su Tu returned to the cave, descended into the Bitter Sea again, and heard new chants asking him to bring hope, strength, and offspring to various peoples.

Su Tu arrived in time to save Luo Mo from Wang Gao and his New Star companions, then brutally killed several of them. He left Wang Gao alive for the moment as Luo Mo demanded the chance to take revenge himself.

• Wang Gao and his companions mocked and hunted the wounded Luo Mo after ambushing him, then ordered Lin Mu to kill him when they heard news of the Remnant Army Tiger Talisman.
