Chapter Summaries

Zhang Yu learned that his new Soul Cultivation Maintenance post would send him to the dangerous, war-damaged Old Days Graveyard, but he stayed focused on advancing to Divine Transformation. Bu Yingshu arranged to send him an Immortal Shuttle, while Zhang Yu headed to Kunxu Layer 14 to retrieve Fu Xiantian's inheritance.

• The Yufa Pavilion assigned Zhang Yu to Soul Cultivation Maintenance at the Old Days Graveyard, and cultivators speculated that Bu Yingshu had abandoned him.
• Yu Xinghan and Ye Xingli warned Zhang Yu that the graveyard was dangerous and difficult to restore after the immortal war, but Zhang Yu refused to seek Bu Yingshu out.
• Zhang Yu suspected Dao Ge had hidden something in the graveyard and resolved to prepare for Divine Transformation there.
• Zhang Yu decided to retrieve Fu Xiantian's inheritance, while Bu Yingshu arranged to send him a Qing Ming Rift Space Immortal Shuttle and promised to take responsibility if he caused harm with it.
• Zhang Yu traveled to Kunxu Layer 14 to retrieve the inheritance Fu Xiantian had left behind.

Zhang Yu found Fu Xiantian’s hidden legacy in Kunxu Layer 14 and entered a memory dream tied to Ling Feng’s corpse. After absorbing the corpse and its Inheritance Space, [Descendant of Immortals] reached Level 2, and Zhang Yu realized he could advance it by finding and merging other inherited spaces.

• Zhang Yu reached Kunxu Layer 14, where stronger immortal qi and sunlight accelerated his physical cultivation and thinking.
• Following Zhan Xian’s guidance, Zhang Yu found a hidden space containing a mutilated corpse that triggered [Descendant of Immortals].
• Zhang Yu absorbed the corpse and witnessed Ling Feng’s memories of Qi Mengyun joining the Heavenly Devil Sect, betraying him, and helping the Heavenly Devil Prince imprison and torture him.
• Ying Xintian’s message revealed that the memory was Ling Feng’s dream, clarified his true history, and offered his sect’s Inheritance Secret Realm to a successor of the Righteous Path.
• The corpse’s Inheritance Space merged into Zhang Yu’s Immortal Space, raising [Descendant of Immortals] to Level 2 and expanding the space to one hundred meters in each dimension.
• Zhang Yu concluded that he could continue advancing [Descendant of Immortals] by finding his forebears’ hidden Inheritance Spaces and merging them into his Immortal Space.

Zhang Yu inherited Ling Feng’s Soul Illuminating Cave Heaven and heard his final charge to oppose the Demonic Path, then traveled with Yan Qianji to the Old Days Graveyard for his new post. After arriving in the hostile, corpse-trading realm, Zhang Yu reported to the neglected Myriad Laws Sect station while Minister Qin Chuan focused on a mysterious Immortal Shuttle.

• Zhang Yu spoke with Ling Feng’s True Spirit in the Immortal Space, inherited his final teachings, and witnessed his True Spirit collapse.
• Zhang Yu realized Level 2 [Descendant of Immortals] could store consciousness and reveal information from special corpses, and he wondered whether Ying Xintian had hidden more ancestors in the Old Days Graveyard.
• Zhang Yu completed [Formless Martial Evolution] at 12/12 and departed with Yan Qianji for the Old Days Graveyard.
• At the graveyard’s entrance, Zhang Yu saw corpses and living Material People being transported, then received a pollution warning for emitting Yang energy.
• Zhang Yu and Yan Qianji reached the Myriad Laws Sect station, where Qin Chuan avoided meeting Zhang Yu and ordered his staff to leave him waiting.
• Qin Chuan learned that an unidentified Immortal Shuttle bearing an Immortal Token remained in the city and treated its unknown owner as more important than Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu received a Qing Ming Rift Space Immortal Shuttle from Bu Yingshu, then concealed it and focused on building a Spirit Transformation Pool to reach the Divine Transformation Realm. A week into his breakthrough, he faced steep operating costs and a growing shortfall while Qin Chuan watched his progress.

• Zhang Yu left the Youxin Department dormitory with Yan Qianji to collect Bu Yingshu's gift, and they went out wearing Sun-Repelling Clothes because the body's storage equipment was supposedly broken.
• At midnight, Zhang Yu and Yan Qianji encountered the Immortal Shuttle, which swept them inside; a cultivator taught Zhang Yu to control it and delivered it on Bu Yingshu's behalf.
• Bu Yingshu showed off the shuttle and offered to cover its expenses, while Zhang Yu resolved to hide it and use it sparingly; he also told Yan Qianji to keep the gift secret.
• Zhang Yu hired cultivators to build a Spirit Transformation Pool in his dormitory, and a week later it began tempering his Nascent Soul toward a Primordial Spirit.
• Qin Chuan arranged for Zhang Yu to be billed for the pool's dormitory Magical Power consumption, and Zhang Yu calculated that his breakthrough would require another two months and leave him short by two hundred thousand Immortal Coins.

Zhang Yu completed his breakthrough to Divine Transformation, transformed his Nascent Soul into a Primordial Spirit, and began raising his cultivation methods with stored rewards. While he cultivated, Jiang Xunyi disrupted the Youxin Department’s Soul Cultivators, and Zhang Yu chose to wait until he was strong enough to respond.

• Zhang Yu decided to borrow more Immortal Coins for cultivation, stored his technique-upgrade rewards, and left his work to Yan Qianji.
• Jiang Xunyi extracted Yin Energy near the Maintenance Teams, drove Yan Qianji away, and revealed that he was probing Zhang Yu for Qin Chuan while trying to repay his gambling debts.
• Zhang Yu told Yan Qianji to suspend the affected work and avoid involving Bu Yingshu until he could break through to Divine Transformation.
• Zhang Yu refined his Nascent Soul into a Primordial Spirit, changed his foundational technique to Blood Tide Essence Qi Sacred Observation, and entered the Divine Transformation Realm.
• Zhang Yu used his stored rewards to raise Myriad Transformations Self-Sufficient Profound Scripture and Immeasurable Inner Heart Dharma Body to level 50, then raised Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra to level 50 to restore balance.

After reaching Divine Transformation, Zhang Yu strengthened his cultivation and developed the Spirit Transformation Dao Body, which accelerated and empowered his Primordial Spirit cultivation. He tested Technique Mutation and discovered that Selected Technique Forgetting could undo an unwanted mutation, then began a second test.

• Zhang Yu pushed three Great Saint Cultivation Methods to level 50, gained thirty-two interconnected clones, and planned his cultivation for the Divine Transformation Realm.
• Zhang Yu advanced his passive Breathing Technique and Body Refinement Cultivation Method, then formed the Spirit Transformation Dao Body and unlocked its three layers of effects.
• Zhang Yu awakened Zhao Tianxing to maintain the Spirit Transformation Pool and dormitory equipment while he cultivated.
• Zhang Yu tested mutations on a Breathing Technique, Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force, and the Mount Sumeru King Scripture, finding that the effects were personal, unpredictable, and apparently irreversible.
• Zhang Yu used Selected Technique Forgetting on the mutated Breathing Technique and restored it by cultivating it again, then mutated it once more.

Zhang Yu mutated his Breathing Technique and used it to resist Jiang Xunyi’s attempt to drain the dormitory of Spiritual Energy and Yin Energy, after which Qin Chuan suspended them both for a month. With his finances running low, Zhang Yu secretly entered the Old Days Graveyard’s Illusionary Realm to search for valuable items and Ancestor Corpses, using Descendant of Immortals to navigate its disordered spaces.

• Zhang Yu repeatedly mutated the Basic Cultivation Method and settled on a Breathing Technique that made the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth tremble.
• Jiang Xunyi sent his Primordial Spirit to drain the dormitory’s Spiritual Energy and Yin Energy, but Zhang Yu activated thirty-two clones and Kunlun in Palm to contest him.
• Qin Chuan arrived, suspended Zhang Yu and Jiang Xunyi for a month, and told Jiang Xunyi that Daoist Bu had given Zhang Yu his Spatial Magic Treasures.
• Zhang Yu focused on cultivation during his suspension but worried that his savings and borrowed Immortal Coins were nearly gone.
• Zhang Yu concealed his departure from the dormitory and flew toward the Illusionary Realm, where Descendant of Immortals let him enter and perceive the disordered space as normal.

Zhang Yu raised [Descendant of Immortals] to Level 3, gained a living Grotto-Heaven, and learned more about the conflict between the Righteous and Demonic Paths. The Illusionary Realm changed after the Heavenly Devil Prince’s remains vanished, prompting the Heavenly Devil Sect to send an investigator; Qin Chuan assigned Zhang Yu to receive them.

• Ying Xintian explained that ancient Dao Orthodoxy had limited who could cultivate immortality to prevent wars over resources, while the Heavenly Devil Prince accused the Righteous Path of monopolizing the Immortal Dao.
• Wild Ox told Zhang Yu that generations of powerful cultivators had repeatedly reshaped the world and that the original nature of Kunxu might no longer be known.
• The Heavenly Devil Prince’s corpse released Grotto-Heaven Power into Zhang Yu’s Immortal Space, expanding it into a space capable of holding living things and raising [Descendant of Immortals] to Level 3.
• After Zhang Yu told the Heavenly Devil Prince that neither the Heavenly Devil Sect nor the Myriad Laws Sect had won, the Prince’s True Spirit shattered and the Illusionary Realm’s spatial structure subtly changed.
• The Heavenly Devil Sect detected the change and arranged for a Heavenly Devil Immortal Clan member to investigate, while Zhang Yu continued exploring and improving his Grotto-Heaven.
• Qin Chuan learned that Heavenly Devil Sect cultivators were coming and ordered Zhang Yu to receive them.

Zhang Yu explored the Illusionary Realm, discovered its deeper regions were sealed behind a barrier, and returned to the Youxin Department to meet Heavenly Devil Sect visitors. When Ying Aikun threatened him under a Legal Killing Domain, Bu Yingshu’s Immortal Shuttle struck Ying Aikun and blasted away his upper body.

• Zhang Yu sensed three strands of Grotto-Heaven Power in the Illusionary Realm but found that an endless avenue blocked his path to the Factory Area and Experimental Area.
• Zhang Yu encountered more cultivators in the Illusionary Realm, found that new entrances had opened, and sold recovered supplies for more than fifty thousand Immortal Coin.
• Zhang Yu arrived at the Youxin Department and met Ling Chiye and Ying Aikun, a descendant of Ying Xintian who demanded to borrow the department’s Soul Cultivators.
• Qin Chuan tried to make Zhang Yu handle Ying Aikun’s request, but Zhang Yu insisted on an official document and refused to yield to Ying Aikun’s threats.
• Ying Aikun activated his Homicide License and reached for Zhang Yu, but Bu Yingshu’s Immortal Shuttle struck him and destroyed his upper body.

Bu Yingshu used her Immortal Shuttle to smash Ying Aikun’s newly cultivated body and took Zhang Yu away before the Heavenly Devil Sect stopped her. Back at the Youxin Department, Zhang Yu received gifts and resources from wary colleagues, while Ying Aikun wondered why Bu Yingshu had appeared at the Old Days Graveyard and welcomed his sister’s arrival.

• Ling Chiye and the Soul Cultivators tried to protect Ying Aikun and gather the fragments of his body after Bu Yingshu’s Immortal Shuttle struck him.
• Bu Yingshu reversed the shuttle, destroyed Ying Aikun’s remaining body, and picked up Zhang Yu as his soul fled.
• Bu Yingshu told Zhang Yu that Ying Aikun likely had a spare body and used Spirit Realm surveillance to pursue him, but a black light from the Heavenly Devil Sect stopped their shuttle.
• Qin Chuan revoked Zhang Yu’s suspension and offered him department resources, while Jiang Xunyi apologized with bags of Immortal Crystals.
• Zhang Yu used the Immortal Crystals to accelerate his Magical Power growth, and Ding Ze installed additional Magical Power Circuits in his dormitory.
• At the Heavenly Devil Sect’s base, Ying Aikun blamed Bu Yingshu for the attack and welcomed his sister as she arrived.

Su Lingyou directed Ying Aikun and Ling Chiye to explore the Illusionary Realm for the corpse of a former Heavenly Devil Sect sect master, while Zhang Yu secretly entered the realm to gather its remaining Grotto-Heaven Power. The chapter ended when Zhang Yu sensed that the Ancestor Corpse Ying Xintian had hidden had begun moving.

• Su Lingyou told Ying Aikun and Ling Chiye that Ten Thousand Methods would not attack the Illusionary Realm and revealed that a former Heavenly Devil Sect sect master's corpse was hidden in its depths.
• Ying Aikun explained that his bloodline let him perceive the Illusionary Realm's changing spatial structure and that the realm was slowly opening to him.
• Su Lingyou ordered Ying Aikun and Ling Chiye to explore the Illusionary Realm, promising rewards for finding the corpse, and decided to buy Soul Cultivators after Bu Yingshu disrupted their original plan.
• Zhang Yu left a clone cultivating in his dormitory and secretly traveled to the Illusionary Realm, where several sects were sending waves of Soul Cultivators to explore it.
• Zhang Yu used his speed and perception to collect valuable items and head toward the remaining Grotto-Heaven Power in the Office Area.
• Zhang Yu sensed that the Grotto-Heaven Power had begun moving and suspected that the Ancestor Corpse Ying Xintian had hidden it.

Zhang Yu recovered the Ancestor Corpse from a crowd of rival cultivators, escaped a Refining Void cultivator by hiding in his Grotto-Heaven, and entered the corpse’s memories. There, he witnessed Jun Xuance’s experiences during the War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths, ending as Jun Xuance confronted Ying Xintian about Demonic Path Righteous Use.

• Zhang Yu raced toward the moving Ancestor Corpse and encountered a Nether Palace squad led by Ming Jue, who recognized the corpse’s value and tried to capture it.
• Cultivators fought over the Ancestor Corpse after the Spirit Realm connection failed, and Zhang Yu led it into a distorted area before seizing it and storing it in his Grotto-Heaven.
• Minister Xie arrived and bound the cultivators with Law Articles, but Zhang Yu escaped by hiding inside his Grotto-Heaven.
• Zhang Yu accepted the Ancestor Corpse’s invitation and entered a memory of the War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths, where Jun Xuance fought Qi Mengyun and watched the war consume his comrades.
• Jun Xuance questioned Ying Xintian about mortals choosing the Demonic Path, and six months later demanded to know what Demonic Path Righteous Use meant.

Zhang Yu witnessed Jun Xuance’s memories of Myriad Laws Sect’s turn to Demonic Path Righteous Use, the defeat of the dissenters, and Ying Xintian’s later resolve to reverse the reforms. Jun Xuance’s True Spirit then opened a Grotto-Heaven Bridge for Zhang Yu, while the Illusionary Realm’s roads between the Office Area and Factory Area opened as well.

• Jun Xuance discovered Ying Xintian, Fa Yuanzi, and Zhen Jizi embracing Demonic Path Righteous Use, then found villagers killing Outer Sect disciples to pursue cultivation.
• Jun Xuance’s Little Martial Uncle urged him to oppose the reforms, but Jun Xuance ultimately joined the forces that besieged and defeated him at Leiyun Gorge.
• Ying Xintian’s memories revealed that Jun Xuance regretted betraying Little Martial Uncle, while Ying Xintian still supported the reforms as a necessary way to buy time and planned to change them back.
• Jun Xuance’s True Spirit entrusted Zhang Yu with the future, shattered into flames, and formed a bridge to a mysterious location, raising Zhang Yu’s [Descendant of Immortals] to level 4.
• The Illusionary Realm opened the roads between the Office Area and Factory Area, and Ying Aikun accepted Ling Chiye’s praise before leading him onward.

Zhang Yu used the Grotto-Heaven Bridge to enter the Illusionary Realm’s Factory Area, where he captured a crazed production line and discovered it contained Grotto-Heaven Power. As the Illusionary Realm shifted and more factions moved in, Su Lingyou arrived and sealed off reports from the Old Days Graveyard.

• Ying Aikun led his group through the changing Factory Area, mapped its shifting layout, and sent cultivators to report their progress to Su Lingyou.
• Zhang Yu learned that his level 4 Descendant of Immortals could open Grotto-Heaven Bridges, then used Jun Xuance’s bridge to travel from his Immortal Grotto-Heaven into the Factory Area.
• Zhang Yu sensed the Factory Area’s spatial changes and captured the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master by shrinking it with his clones and drawing it into his Immortal Grotto-Heaven.
• Zhang Yu extracted the Furnace Master’s Grotto-Heaven Power, expanded his Immortal Grotto-Heaven, and found that the now-obedient Furnace Master could be started and stopped at will.
• Minister Xie entered the Factory Area to find Ying Aikun, while Qin Chuan led a Youxin Department team into the Illusionary Realm after Zhang Yu declined to join.
• Su Lingyou arrived at the Old Days Graveyard, suppressed all reports about the Illusionary Realm, and asked where Ying Aikun and the others were; Zhang Yu noticed the Furnace Master’s Hundred Furnace Aspects trait.

Zhang Yu subdued the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master and discovered that it could strengthen his Immortal Grotto-Heaven by drawing in Spiritual Energy and producing Breathing Machines. As he gathered more frenzied Corpse Parts, Zhan Xian suspected another Sect had helped create the Illusionary Realm, and Zhang Yu realized the Ancestor Corpse he was approaching had vanished.

• Zhang Yu learned that the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master was a Cave-Heaven Production Line whose power sharply declined beyond a few meters from his Immortal Grotto-Heaven.
• Zhang Yu used Breathing Machines and the Grotto-Heaven Bridge to supply Spiritual Energy and Magical Power to the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master.
• Zhang Yu began capturing frenzied Corpse Parts, extracting their Grotto-Heaven Power, and making them obey him inside his Immortal Grotto-Heaven.
• Zhang Yu found that the growing number of Corpse Parts drained Spiritual Energy, so he had the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master dismantle other Corpse Parts and manufacture Breathing Machines from their materials.
• Zhan Xian suggested that a cultivator from another Sect had helped Ying Xintian create the Illusionary Realm because the frenzied Corpse Parts differed from the Myriad Laws Sect's aesthetic.
• Zhang Yu sensed that the Ancestor Corpse he had been approaching suddenly disappeared and wondered who had taken it.

Zhang Yu discovered that the Ancestor Corpse had led him to the Comfort Spirit Garden, where he revived an Artificial Spirit Vein by burying corpses while collecting the Frenzied Corpse Parts it attracted. As he searched for the Ancestor Corpse, unseen observers judged his choices, and he prepared to respond when Ying Aikun tried to seal the Factory Area.

• Zhang Yu traced the Ancestor Corpse to the Corpse Recycling Station, where Zhan Xian explained that it had once been the Comfort Spirit Garden, a Cemetery meant to preserve respect for the dead.
• The Ancestor Corpse called Zhang Yu to find it and test what he would do, while Zhan Xian revealed that Ying Xintian's surviving allies might be observing the trial as his Immortal Vein.
• Zhang Yu found that burying corpses beneath the Cemetery's forest of steles could revive an Artificial Spirit Vein, and he began restoring it while collecting the Frenzied Corpse Parts it drew in.
• Zhang Yu subdued many Corpse Parts, strengthened his Immortal Grotto-Heaven and its Divine Beasts, and established a Grotto-Heaven Bridge to draw in the Spirit Vein's energy.
• Ying Aikun ordered the Heavenly Devil Sect to seal the Factory Area entrance and investigate the disturbed Corpse Parts, while Zhang Yu decided to stop them without confronting them directly.
• Zhang Yu sent the Qing Ming Rift Space Immortal Shuttle into the Illusionary Realm; Qin Chuan and other cultivators followed it, and Ying Aikun recognized the vessel as it approached.

Zhang Yu used Bu Yingshu’s Qing Ming Rift Space Immortal Shuttle to smash Ying Aikun’s avatar and force open the factory area blockade, drawing the Illusionary Realm cultivators’ attention while his true body acted elsewhere. Ying Aikun interpreted Zhang Yu’s arrival as a deliberate plot against him, then broke through the Spatial Barrier to the experimental area.

• Ying Aikun’s Heavenly Devil Sect cultivators blocked the factory area entrance, but they panicked when Zhang Yu arrived aboard the Immortal Shuttle.
• Ying Aikun knelt and called out to Bu Yingshu, then challenged Zhang Yu after realizing she was not aboard; Zhang Yu drove the shuttle into Ying Aikun’s avatar and destroyed it.
• Zhang Yu announced that Bu Yingshu had lent him the shuttle, warned everyone to clear its route, and led Qin Chuan, Jiang Xunyi, and other cultivators into the factory area.
• Ying Aikun told Ling Chiye that Bu Yingshu and the people behind her were targeting him, then ordered the cultivators to gather around him and avoid Zhang Yu.
• Ying Aikun broke through the Spatial Barrier and led Ling Chiye toward the experimental area to investigate what the old fellow had left there.

Zhang Yu entered an Ancestor Corpse’s memory dreamscape and experienced Li Feng’s life as he helped Tai Zhen supervise the Myriad Laws Sect’s use of Demonic Path techniques. As the war intensified and the Sect increasingly resisted their oversight, a technological breakthrough arrived just as Li Feng’s situation became unbearable.

• Zhang Yu assembled and tested the Hundred Skeletons Furnace Master and Cannon Array Dragon, then encountered an awake Ancestor Corpse who demanded that he inherit the Righteous Path’s will.
• The Ancestor Corpse drew Zhang Yu into a memory dream where he became Li Feng, imprisoned for opposing Ying Xintian’s plans for Demonic Path Righteous Use.
• Tai Zhen and Ying Xintian freed Li Feng and made him deputy hall master of the Demon Supervision Hall, where he and Tai Zhen oversaw Demonic Path affairs.
• Li Feng discovered that a senior disciple had blood-sacrificed mortals, and Tai Zhen risked herself to bring the offender back for trial.
• As the war escalated, Li Feng and Tai Zhen faced growing opposition for prosecuting blood sacrifices and soul extraction, while Tai Zhen insisted that the Sect must hold to the Righteous Path.
• Li Feng felt increasingly isolated as the Myriad Laws Sect obstructed their work, until a revolutionary technological breakthrough occurred.

Li Feng’s dream revealed how he confronted Tai Zhen’s human-breeding factory and regretted failing to stop her, while Zhang Yu recognized the difference between the dream and Li Feng’s true choice. Li Feng accepted Zhang Yu’s secret answer, passed on his Grotto-Heaven power, and Zhang Yu reached Descendant of Immortals level 5 before Ying Xintian summoned his descendant to claim an inheritance.

• Li Feng’s dream showed Tai Zhen using rapidly bred humans to produce Immortal Dao materials, and Li Feng gave him his Natal Soulfire to supervise her.
• Zhang Yu regained clarity and explained that Li Feng’s true memory differed from the dream: Li Feng had refused to compromise and forced Tai Zhen to put him to sleep rather than conceal the factory willingly.
• Li Feng heard Zhang Yu’s unspoken choice, accepted that he would not stop it, and transferred his Grotto-Heaven power while warning him not to become another Tai Zhen.
• Zhang Yu realized Ying Xintian’s inheritance needed to be claimed publicly to legitimize his power and connections, and his Descendant of Immortals power rose to level 5, granting him up to eight Grotto-Heaven Bridges that could be opened on other people.
• Ying Xintian’s voice summoned his descendant to claim the inheritance at the corpse of a former Heavenly Devil Sect Sect Master, and Ying Aikun assumed the inheritance was meant for him.

After Ying Xintian announced that cultivators could compete for his Immortal Inheritance, Zhang Yu and others entered the Experimental Area, where a restriction barred Void Refining cultivators and the Immortal Shuttle. Su Lingyou suppressed news of the inheritance from outside the Illusionary Realm, while Zhang Yu was teleported into the competition and the race toward the inheritance began.

• Ying Xintian’s announcement prompted Zhang Yu and cultivators across the Factory Area to race toward the Experimental Area in pursuit of his Immortal Inheritance.
• Qin Chuan and Jiang Xunyi each decided to compete for the inheritance, and both hurried toward the Experimental Area.
• Zhang Yu entered the Experimental Area aboard the Immortal Shuttle, but a barrier stopped the shuttle while allowing him to pass through alone and teleport away.
• Ling Chiye discovered that the Experimental Area restricted Void Refining cultivators, then resolved to protect Ying Aikun and help him escape with the inheritance.
• Su Lingyou suppressed information about Ying Xintian and the inheritance, believing control of the news would keep the Illusionary Realm under her control.
