Chapter Summaries

Chen Yi entered the Tianshu Star Domain, endured the Heavenly Dao’s full-force lightning strike, and used its power to heal and transform Fang Zheng. After the Supreme Beings fled, the Tianshu Heavenly Dao set aside its hostility and asked Chen Yi why he had come.

• The Tianshu Heavenly Dao attacked Chen Yi as he emerged from the spatial passage, but he refined the lightning and infused its essence into Fang Zheng.
• Fang Zheng’s injuries healed, his life force strengthened, and his cultivation aptitude rose beyond the limits of heaven and earth.

• The Tianshu Heavenly Dao yielded and asked Chen Yi what purpose had brought him to its world.

After completing the mission, Chen Yi persuaded the Tianshu Heavenly Dao to help Fang Zheng hunt down the Twenty-Four Supreme Beings and gave it three Star Suppressing Seals to stabilize the world. Chen Yi departed after strengthening Fang Zheng, who prepared to pursue the hidden Supreme Beings.

• The chat group announced that Chen Yi's mission was complete and awarded him 500 million points and 30 million group experience.
• Chen Yi told the Tianshu Heavenly Dao that Fang Zheng would hunt the Twenty-Four Supreme Beings, and the Heavenly Dao agreed to seal heaven and earth so they could not escape.

After claiming the rewards from a mission, Chen Yi raised Group 108 to level 32 and unlocked new mall and team-instance features. He urged his members to grow strong enough for the instances, rewarded Fang Zheng with a cultivation technique, and taunted the silent group members.

• Chen Yi claimed 500 million points and 30 million group experience, raising Group 108 to level 32 and unlocking item listings and team-up evil extermination instances.
• Chen Yi decided the group was not ready for the instances because members needed at least 30 million Combat Power, while Fang Zheng had only about 1.3 million.
• Chen Yi sent a 320,000-point red packet, and Fang Zheng claimed 90,000 points before announcing he would challenge the Supreme One to improve his strength.
• Fang Zheng vowed to reach 30 million Combat Power within ten years, so Chen Yi shared the Fighting Character Art with him.
• Envious group members erupted in frustration, and Chen Yi asked why nobody else was talking.

Chen Yi confronted Mu Chen in the Public Zone after raising his group’s level, and Mu Chen tried to smooth things over by invoking the Tribulation Master Venerable. The exchange revealed that Chen Yi was the very Venerable Mu Chen meant to name, and the chapter ended with a flashback to Chen Yi’s famous poetry challenge.

• Chen Yi’s muted group members pleaded for forgiveness while Liu Ruyan continued to curse him, and Chen Yi left them to reflect for two and a half hours.

• Mu Chen invoked the name Tribulation Heaven Venerable and offered an apology, hoping Chen Yi would back down.
• Chen Yi revealed that he was the real Chen Yi and asked whether Mu Chen would come find him or be found himself.
• Mu Chen panicked, blocked Chen Yi, and went offline to avoid meeting him.
• Chen Yi summoned the Ziwei Heavenly Dao and gave it three conditions for finding Mu Chen.
• The Ziwei Heavenly Dao found nine matching beings, marked their coordinates, and asked Chen Yi to check whether the other eight were Outer Realm Demon Race reincarnations.

Chen Yi learned that the Outer Realm Demon Race had infiltrated the Ziwei Continent and sent his avatars to deal with them while he tracked down Group 98’s owner. He found Mu Chen and made him call him Brother Yi, then asked how many members were in his group.

• The Ziwei Heavenly Dao told Chen Yi that Outer Realm Demon Race spies had infiltrated the continent.

• Chen Yi praised Mu Chen’s cultivation, declared him his younger brother, and asked how many members were in his group.

Chen Yi struck a deal with Mu Chen to buy ten promising members of Group 98, then sent two Immortal Body clones to devastate the Outer Realm Demon Race's lair. The clones recovered and prepared to enter the depths of the lair to hunt down the hidden Eryi Mother Body.

• Chen Yi confronted Mu Chen, who admitted that Group 98 had fifty-three members and 33.47 million points in its Group Master's account.
• Chen Yi offered Mu Chen ten million points each for ten of Group 98's highest-level members, and Mu Chen eagerly agreed to introduce them.
• Two of Chen Yi's Immortal Body clones attacked tens of thousands of Demonic Eryi in their lair beyond the Ziwei Continent.
• The clones combined their techniques to wipe out nearly all the demons, leaving nine survivors to flee deeper into the lair.
• After drinking Immortal Dao Spiritual Essence and recovering, the clones turned toward the depths to search for the Eryi Mother Body.

The Eryi Mother Body fled into a spacetime rift to escape Chen Yi, but two of Chen Yi’s Immortal Body clones waited in ambush. Meanwhile, Chen Yi arranged to move ten members of Mu Chen’s group to Group 108, leaving Mu Chen to explain that he had no choice but to comply with its leader.

Mu Chen traded three troublesome members from Group 98 to Chen Yi’s Group 108, where they discovered the supposedly new group was already powerful and welcomed their new owner. Back in Group 98, muted members watched the last red-packet share slip away, and Liu Ruyan decided to charge the imperial guards to get money for the Mall.

• Mu Chen and Chen Yi attempted to trade ten members, but the Public Zone Peace Convention limited the deal to three, so Chen Yi chose Villain Self-Redemption In Progress, I Don't Eat Cilantro, and Fallen Genius.
• Mu Chen completed the trade for 30,000,000 points, and Chen Yi left after offering to help him if trouble arose.
• The three transferred members saw Group 108’s high level, powerful owner, and valuable cultivation techniques, then welcomed Fang Zheng and claimed his red packets.
• Muted Group 98 members fumed as the countdown kept them from claiming the final red-packet share, while Liu Ruyan grew furious about missing the points.
• Liu Ruyan decided to get money immediately and charged the imperial guards watching over her.

Chen Yi accepted a mission to save Liu Ruyan, a transmigrator in the Cold Palace who was being forced to hang herself, while he mocked the group’s simps and chatted with the new members. He arrived only after Liu Ruyan lost consciousness and believed she was dead.

• The group announced that Liu Ruyan was trapped in the Cold Palace and that the emperor had ordered her to die, so Chen Yi accepted the rescue mission.

• Liu Ruyan’s magical white silk tightened around her neck, and she struggled in vain as her consciousness faded.
• Liu Ruyan believed she had died, and Chen Yi slowly emerged from the void.

Chen Yi arrived in the inner palace to stop Liu Ruyan’s suicide, but the palace’s imperial rules tried to castrate him, provoking him to attack the Great Zhou Dynasty’s fortune. He dragged out and tore apart its golden dragon, devastating the imperial clan as the Heavenly Dao gathered to destroy him.

• Chen Yi restored Liu Ruyan’s Primordial Spirit to her corpse and froze the two imperial guards who attacked him.
• The inner palace’s special rules manifested blades to castrate Chen Yi, so he crushed them and struck the dragon vein beneath the palace.
• The Great Zhou fortune dragon appeared and attacked Chen Yi, who revealed his Tribulation Transcendence peak aura and summoned two spare clones to withstand the Heavenly Dao.
• Chen Yi formed a ten-thousand-zhang Dharma Idol, seized the golden dragon by the neck, and dragged it from Great Zhou’s sea of fortune.
• Great Zhou’s imperial figures and warriors charged Chen Yi, but he blasted them away, then tore the Imperial Clan’s dragon sinew from the fortune dragon.
• The Great Zhou Imperial Clan lost its fortune and suffered fatal backlash as the enraged Heavenly Dao covered the sky with lightning-filled clouds.

Chen Yi bargained with Heaven’s Way to stabilize the dynasty and chose Liu Ruyan as its new ruler. Liu Ruyan was revived, crowned as the founding empress of Great Wind, and left bewildered on the throne as the officials remained kneeling.

• Chen Yi transformed the Destiny Pearl into a phoenix crown, which named Liu Ruyan the founding empress of Great Wind.
• Chen Yi transported Liu Ruyan to the throne, where she ordered the officials to rise but they stayed kneeling.

Liu Ruyan struggled to command the court as Empress until Chen Yi intervened and ordered the officials to follow her authority. After she approved memorials with the Destiny Phoenix Crown, the chat group's mission system recognized her as the first Empress and began recalculating her reward.

• The officials ignored Liu Ruyan's command, leaving her and the court in an awkward standoff while Chen Yi watched from the shadows.
• Liu Ruyan asked Chen Yi for help in the chat group, prompting the group members to tease her and discuss her time in the inner palace.

• Chen Yi ordered the officials to rise when Liu Ruyan commanded and to bring her memorials for approval.
• Liu Ruyan signed the memorials, and the Destiny Phoenix Crown certified her authority as the chat group's mission system recognized her new status and recalculated her reward.

Chen Yi received a recalculated mission reward of one billion points and forty million group experience, then spent 1.2 billion points on Immortal Essence Stones. He distributed the stones among his clones to begin transforming their bodies, while Liu Ruyan was left to rule Great Zhou under the officials’ strict adherence to the Heavenly Venerable’s decree.

• The chat group recalculated Chen Yi’s reward to one billion points and forty million group experience after he exceeded the mission requirements.

• Chen Yi inspected Pangu’s Essence Blood in the Myriad Worlds Mall but decided not to buy it, then purchased 6,000 Immortal Essence Stones for 1.2 billion points.
• Chen Yi set aside 480 Immortal Essence Stones and divided the remaining 5,520 among his forty-six ordinary one-star clones to begin their immortal body transformations.

Chen Yi completed Immortal Bodies for his clones, raising his combat power to 1.8 billion and making him effectively ageless. When the Eryi Mother Body rejected his offer of protection unless he also restrained the Ziwei Heavenly Dao, Chen Yi sent forty-six clones toward its hiding place, while the Ziwei Heavenly Dao celebrated their departure for the Outer Realm Demon Race’s nest.

• Chen Yi used his ample Immortal Essence Stones to complete the Immortal Bodies of his remaining forty-six one-star clones, which then fed Spiritual Aura back to his True Body and shielded him from time’s power.
• The chat group updated Chen Yi’s combat power to 1.8 billion, and the Ziwei Heavenly Dao asked him to help it evolve its laws, but Chen Yi ignored the request.
• Chen Yi considered creating a five-star Immortal Body clone and turned his attention to the weakened Eryi Mother Body hiding in a spacetime rift.
• Chen Yi offered to preserve the Eryi Mother Body’s true spirit and let it reincarnate if it answered his questions, but it demanded that he also restrain the Ziwei Heavenly Dao.
• Chen Yi withdrew his offer and sent forty-six one-star Immortal Body clones toward the spacetime rift, prompting the Ziwei Heavenly Dao to rejoice at their approach to the Outer Realm Demon Race’s nest.

Chen Yi captured the Eryi Mother Body and handed it to Ziwei Heavenly Dao, then worried that maintaining his Immortal Body clones would drain his points. He returned to the chat group and announced a quiz that would punish the member with the least improvement.

• The Eryi Mother Body tried to bargain with Chen Yi, but Chen Yi surrounded it with forty-eight clones and declared that it would pay for the deaths of 9,586,147,280,652 living beings.
• The Eryi Mother Body fought back, but Chen Yi's clones quickly crippled it and carried it away alive.
• Ziwei Heavenly Dao thanked Chen Yi and imprisoned the Eryi Mother Body in the Heavenly Dao Space, where it subjected the captive to heavenly lightning.
• Chen Yi spent one hundred million points on Immortal Essence Stones and calculated that maintaining his forty-nine Immortal Body clones would cost nearly twenty million points a month.
• Chen Yi reopened the chat group after more than half a month and announced that the member with the least improvement during his absence would be punished.

Chen Yi returned to the group and began inspecting members’ cultivation progress, Combat Power, and circumstances. Fang Zheng and Chen Bo reported their growth, while Xiao Chunnan revealed his family’s secret treasure and offered to use it to start a help mission.

• Chen Yi ordered every group member to report their Combat Power growth, cultivation progress, and current circumstances, then called on Fang Zheng first.
• Fang Zheng reported that his Combat Power had risen from 1.5 million to 3.2 million and described trapping twenty-four Supreme Beings with the Heavenly Dao’s help.
• Chen Yi praised Fang Zheng’s progress and decided he was likely to qualify for a future Exorcism Instance team.
• Chen Bo reported his Combat Power had increased from 32,000 to 200,000 and asked for the Fighting Character Art; Chen Yi set one million Combat Power as the download requirement, allowing Chen Bo to qualify once he reached it.
• Xiao Chunnan reported that his Combat Power had risen from 930,000 to 1.3 million and revealed that the Xiao Family possessed a treasure capable of opening the Spirit Emperor’s Secret Treasure.

Chen Yi assessed the group members’ progress, approving Xiao Chunnan’s report and praising Liu Ruyan’s rapid cultivation before muting her for demanding a reward. Zhou Zheng revealed that he had been detained as a scapegoat in a corruption investigation, while Li Yuanyuan reported using Chen Yi’s cultivation arts to drain and charm her partners.

• Xiao Chunnan told Chen Yi that his clan possessed a rare treasure capable of opening the Spirit Emperor’s Secret Treasure, and Chen Yi told him to wait for arrangements.
• Liu Ruyan reported that her Combat Power had risen from 5,000 to 550,000 in fifteen days and that she had advanced her cultivation arts; Chen Yi rated her Excellent and muted her for two and a half hours.
• Zhou Zheng explained that he had been detained and framed for corruption after his superior fell from power, and Chen Yi allowed him to escalate the matter despite failing the assessment.
• Zhou Zheng thanked Chen Yi and went dark after saying he would confront the people trying to silence him.
• Li Yuanyuan reported her cultivation progress and described using the Great Evolution Heaven Swallowing Art and Spirit Control Art to drain and hypnotize her partners.

Chen Yi passed Li Yuanyuan’s assessment and gave her a cultivation art suited to her Yin-Yang Fusion path, prompting her to break down in tears. He then heard Zhao Gao’s account of being hunted by the Destined Protagonist Lin Hao and considered repeatedly sending Fang Zheng to drive Lin Hao back for points; An Lan finally responded after a delay.

• Chen Yi shared the Flower Grafting Inner Canon with Li Yuanyuan after deciding her current cultivation art was unsuitable for her path.
• Li Yuanyuan cried as she interpreted Chen Yi’s support as understanding of the hardships that had forced her into her present life.
• Zhao Gao explained how Lin Hao repeatedly survived his attacks, grew stronger, and now hunted him despite Zhao Gao having the higher cultivation realm.
• Chen Yi chose to pursue the repeatable rewards for driving Lin Hao back and planned to assign the missions to Fang Zheng, who had the Star Suppressing Seal.
• Chen Yi waived Zhao Gao’s punishment and told him to await specific arrangements after the assessment.
• An Lan responded late, apologized, and said he had just finished and would reflect on his actions.

Chen Yi evaluated An Lan’s slow progress, waived his assessment after hearing about the surveillance on him, and assigned the group members their next tasks. He then prepared to visit their worlds and seek reserve teammates, while Zhou Zheng faced pressure from a Law Enforcement elder at the Sacred Void Sect.

• An Lan explained that the Lord God of Light had ordered a search for infiltrators and that a third-rank Holy Light Envoy was monitoring him, slowing his Combat Power growth to 13,000.
• Chen Yi waived An Lan’s assessment and sent the group a 360,000-point red packet, which An Lan and the other members claimed.
• Chen Yi ordered Fang Zheng to stop provoking the Supremes, Zhao Gao to provoke the protagonist, and Xiao Chunnan to use the clan’s strange treasure as bait; An Lan and Chen Bo were told to stay hidden.
• Chen Yi warmed up his clone in Phantom Star Grotto-Heaven, intending to find reserve teammates strong enough to help open the Exorcism Instance.
• At the Sacred Void Sect, a Law Enforcement elder threatened Zhou Zheng over his two younger sisters and told him what to say to the Sect Master, but Zhou Zheng calmly agreed to perform as expected.
