Gu Jinlai learned that the Sacred Dynasty planned to use the Star Gate to invade Blue Star, and promised to stop the invasion if it moved forward. As Chao Jiuyin and her allies left Tianshi Hall, they revealed the Blue Sky warship they had built, whose particle cannon could pierce a Saint’s body.

• Gu Jinlai told Chao Jiuyin he could take her chosen people out of Tianshi Hall and revealed that he was from the Middle-Earth Kingdom and belonged to the Blue Light Society.

After freeing Chao Jiuyin, Gu Jinlai learned that Xing Bielihe’s past might be tied to legendary immortals and decided to seek Zhao Guanghua in the Immortal Kingdom. He returned to Windy Rain City and planned to move rescued people to Qiantian to cultivate Celestial Masters while using his new authority to purge corruption in the Sacred Dynasty.

• Bai Muling urged Bai Yuxin to inform the Sacred Dynasty before searching for Gu Jinlai, but Bai Yuxin insisted they act in secret.
• Bai Yuxin and Bai Muling subdued Yang Kaishan and the Mountain Range Sword Sect, then ordered them and the Liu Household to search for Gu Jinlai.

• Bai Yuxin sent a Saint to investigate, and the Saint reported that Gu Jinlai’s subordinates had already taken over the city’s defenses.
• After hearing that Gu Jinlai had reportedly slain a Demon God, Bai Yuxin dismissed the warning and ordered the descent formation prepared to summon the White Goat Star Lord.

• As Gu Jinlai tried the captured officials, his unease intensified until he sensed White Sheep Star Lord watching him from the true spirit world.
• Gu Jinlai gave Liu Feiyun a jade medallion and told her where to take everyone if it shattered, signaling his death.
• Gu Jinlai flew toward the Demon Realm rift as a terrifying phantom pursued him and the people of Blazing Sun City sensed its approach.

Gu Jinlai faced a terrifying attacker suspected to be a Demonic Spirit, so Liu Feiyun alerted Duanmu Chengyun and the Sacred Dynasty. The peerless Void Immortals chose to project their power toward Radiant Sun City, where the chapter left the entire dynasty sensing that a major crisis had begun.

• Liu Feiyun used Gu Jinlai's Inspector's Token to tell Duanmu Chengyun that a powerful Demonic Spirit was threatening Gu Jinlai near Radiant Sun City.
• Duanmu Chengyun gathered Zhang Yingzhen, Zhao Piaomiao, Dong Xuanzi, and Suxin to discuss whether the Sacred Dynasty should help Gu Jinlai.
• Dong Xuanzi argued that the group should save Gu Jinlai because the Demonic Spirit would threaten them next, while Duanmu Chengyun proposed first identifying the enemy and observing the situation.
• Duanmu Chengyun decided to activate the All-Heavens Star-Gathering Formation and project the peerless Void Immortals' power toward Radiant Sun City.
• The formation sent streams of light from the Sacred Dynasty's forty-eight cities, alarming their inhabitants and signaling that a major incident had occurred.

The Sacred Dynasty activated the Zhou Tian Gathering Stars Formation after the White Ram Star Lord pursued Gu Jinlai, prompting humanity and the Demonic Beasts to mobilize for a possible decisive battle. Gu Jinlai raced toward the Demon Realm rift, strengthened his understanding of the Nebula Strategy, and prepared to face the White Ram Star Lord’s assault.

• The Sacred Dynasty activated the Zhou Tian Gathering Stars Formation, and people across the nation mistook it for the start of a human counterattack.

• Gu Jinlai fled more than a thousand kilometers toward the Demon Realm rift and planned to use the battlefield’s location to weaken the White Ram Star Lord.
• Gu Jinlai invested Clear Light in the Nebula Strategy, perfected it, and gained deeper knowledge of spirituality without an immediate increase in strength.
• The White Ram Star Lord’s spiritual tsunami struck Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit, and Gu Jinlai called on him to fight.

Lord Aries invaded Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit, seeking to erase his identity and remake him into a dao marker. Gu Jinlai endured the assault and drew Lord Aries’s spirit realm body into the Demon Realm, where he prepared to confront him under conditions that weakened their connection.

• Lord Aries’s spiritual tsunami cracked Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit and began seeping into his soul, but Gu Jinlai countered with soul arts and repeatedly rebuilt his Wall of Void.
• Lord Aries revealed that he had sacrificed spirituality and concepts from his spirit realm body to make his attack far stronger than the boundless spiritual seed Gu Jinlai had faced before.
• Gu Jinlai raced toward the Demon Realm fissure while resisting Lord Aries’s assault, then killed the Demon Emperor guarding the area with a bolt of thunder.
• Gu Jinlai entered the fissure, and Lord Aries’s spirit realm body followed by projecting its spirituality through its physical vessel.
• Inside the Demon Realm, Lord Aries’s connection to his physical body weakened and his projected power dwindled, as Gu Jinlai stopped to face him and declared their battle had begun.

Gu Jinlai endured Lord Aries’s spiritual attacks until the Creator’s power waned, then unleashed a blazing counterattack and revealed that he had learned Spirit World Descent. Lord Aries’s attempt to liberate his remaining spirituality was cut off, leaving the fight at a turning point.

• Lord Aries explained how a Creator could unleash the full power of a spiritual-world body and attacked Gu Jinlai with six colossal swords.
• Gu Jinlai blocked Lord Aries’s attacks by continually stacking void walls, while spiritual pressure drove nearby Demonic Spirits away.
• Lord Aries increased his assault to twelve swords, but Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit repeatedly recovered from the damage as the two fought a prolonged battle of attrition.
• Lord Aries stopped attacking after his spiritual power dwindled and questioned whether Gu Jinlai was another Creator or something from a new path.
• Gu Jinlai ignited his mental world and sent a blazing attack toward Lord Aries.
• Lord Aries began to invoke Spirit World Descent, but Gu Jinlai identified the technique and interrupted the dispersing spirituality, saying he knew it too.

Gu Jinlai turned the Aries Star Lord’s ultimate spirit-world technique against him, seized control of his Spirit World body, and began replacing his concept. As Duanmu Chengyun and the others reached the Demon Realm rift, they witnessed the enormous phantom and froze in terror, recognizing it as a Creation Master.

• Gu Jinlai dissipated the Aries Star Lord’s Descent of the Spirit World and reduced his remaining spirituality to less than one percent.
• Gu Jinlai followed the Aries Star Lord into the Spirit World and used his True Spirit to replace the Aries Star Lord’s concept and take control of his projected body.
• The Aries Star Lord tried to retreat through the Demon Realm rift, but Gu Jinlai took control of the projected body and drove it toward the Aries Star Lord’s other half.
• Duanmu Chengyun, Suxin, Dongxuanzi, Zhang Yingzhen, Zhao Piaomiao, Startrace Demon God, and Longxiao Demon God hurried to the rift, where they saw the towering phantom and recognized it as a Creation Master.

The human Void Immortals and Demon Gods watched in terror as Baiyang Star Lord's Creator form pursued Gu Jinlai into the Demon Realm and began returning to the material world. They then sensed Gu Jinlai was still alive and fighting the Creator with a True Spirit, which began to gain the upper hand.

• Suxin and the other Void Immortals recognized the towering phantom as a Creator, while Startrace Demon God and Longxiao Demon God feared its return.
• Startrace Demon God decided to report the Creator's reappearance to His Majesty Cangming, and Longxiao Demon God vowed they would not lose again.
• As the Creator's Spirit World body solidified, the Void Immortals assumed Gu Jinlai had died, but they soon sensed him fighting the Creator in the spiritual world.
• Longxiao Demon God identified an aura like a True Spirit on Gu Jinlai, and the observers realized it was erasing the Creator's spiritual fluctuations.
• Gu Jinlai burned his True Spirit, flooding the Creator's Spirit World body with powerful spirituality as the battle continued.

Gu Jinlai burned his True Spirit to erase the Aries Star Lord and take control of the Creator’s Spirit World body. As the Void Immortals and Demon Gods struggled to understand what he had become, Xinghen and Longxiao attacked, but their assaults passed through him harmlessly.

• Gu Jinlai’s burning True Spirit overwhelmed the Aries Star Lord’s concept and gave him control of the thousand-meter Spirit World body.
• The Aries Star Lord accepted his defeat, reflected on how eras discarded those lost in the Spirit World, and was completely erased by Gu Jinlai.
• Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit flooded the Creator’s body with spirituality, awakening it and unleashing a roar that shook the Void Immortals and Demon Gods.
• Xinghen and Longxiao feared Gu Jinlai was weakened after burning his True Spirit, so they attacked while the Void Immortals hesitated over whether to join them.
• Gu Jinlai found that his immense Spirit World body was too clumsy to move quickly, but the Demon Gods’ physical and energy attacks passed through him without harm.

Gu Jinlai used the Aries Star Lord’s Spirit Realm life form to kill the Startrace Demon God and Longxiao Demon God, then rejected the chance to transform into a Creator because the path would trap him in the Spirit Realm. He left the five Void Immortals to fight the arriving Demon Emperors and began refining the Spirit Realm life form into a Void Beast.

• Gu Jinlai immobilized the Startrace Demon God and Longxiao Demon God, disrupted their escape through the Tower of Eternal Life, and extracted their spirituality to create two Demon Soul Crystals.
• Gu Jinlai severed his connection to the Aries Star Lord’s life form, returned through the rift, and collected the Demon Soul Crystals.

• Gu Jinlai told the five Void Immortals to defeat the arriving Demon Emperors, and they went to fight them.
• Gu Jinlai guided the Aries Star Lord’s Spirit Realm life form into the Demon Soul Crystals to refine a powerful Void Beast.

After the battle, the five Void Immortals accepted that Gu Jinlai was beyond their power and resolved to help him gather materials while counterattacking the Demonic Beasts. On Blue Star, Xie Yusheng heard about a new cultivation method, dismissed it, and finally received leave from the Nantian Gate Project—only to find Qiao Siyu waiting for him at the entrance.

• The five Void Immortals speculated that Gu Jinlai was refining a Ruin Beast and decided to help him gather materials before launching a full-scale counterattack against the Demonic Beasts.
• Xie Yusheng received his salary and considered how to improve the nuclear fusion engine while working at the Nantian Gate Project.

• Xie Yusheng saw Qiao Siyu waiting beside a red sports car at the project entrance, and his cheerful expression froze.

• Xuan Tianzun took up the Twin-Birth Sutra and resolved to explore the Celestial Master path despite the danger of developing a split personality.

Gu Jinlai returned to Qiantian after defeating the Aries Star Lord and turning him into a Void Beast, then flew to the Aries Star Palace to confront Ziyang and the Heavenly Dragon Wood. As they recognized him and questioned how he had survived, the Aries Star Lord arrived.

• Gu Jinlai told them their master, the Aries Star Lord, had arrived as a chilling presence approached through the clouds.

Gu Jinlai revealed that the taboo Xu Beast was the transformed Aries Star Lord, then subdued Heavenly Dragon Wood and took control of the Aries Star Palace. After mapping the palace’s star gate, he discovered it connected to Azure Goat Valley near the Immortal Kingdom, giving him a route between there and the palace.

• Gu Jinlai showed Ziyang and Heavenly Dragon Wood that the taboo Xu Beast carried the Aries Star Lord’s aura because he had refined the Star Lord into it.
• Gu Jinlai blasted Heavenly Dragon Wood with repeated lightning strikes, leaving him badly injured and forcing Ziyang to surrender the beast-control token.
• Gu Jinlai used the token to claim the Aries Star Palace and surveyed its vast stores of treasures and powerful defenses.
• Gu Jinlai asked Ziyang about the star gate, then named the world beneath them the Longevity Realm.
• Gu Jinlai examined the star’s projection and learned Azure Goat Valley lay near the Immortal Kingdom, reachable through the palace’s star gate.
