Chapter Summaries

Zhao Ziyue and Evil Blade Supreme worried that Li Yun had vanished and that Zhao Yunzhu would purge them, until Li Yun unexpectedly returned to the Royal Palace. Before they could explain the crisis, Zhao Yunzhu led over a hundred powerful Devil Race experts in an ambush around the courtyard.

• Evil Blade Supreme urged Zhao Ziyue to find a way out and search for Ye Tianxie and Li Yun if Li Yun had truly gone missing.
• Evil Blade Supreme said Li Yun was too fortunate and powerful to be easily defeated, and proposed escaping the Royal Palace to seek him out.
• Li Yun appeared silently in the courtyard, startling Zhao Ziyue and revealing to Evil Blade Supreme that his strength had far surpassed theirs.
• Li Yun asked Zhao Ziyue what had happened with Zhao Yunzhu and the Devil Race.
• A dark cloud surrounded the courtyard, trapping Li Yun, Zhao Ziyue, and Evil Blade Supreme among over a hundred Devil Race experts.
• Zhao Yunzhu returned and declared that he would explain the situation to Li Yun before sending him on his way.

Li Yun faced Zhao Yunzhu’s ambush and learned that Zhao wanted information about the White Emperor Inner City and its hidden legacy. Li Yun claimed he had killed four Dao Embryo Realm leaders, leaving Zhao Yunzhu stunned and then openly disbelieving him.

• Zhao Yunzhu revealed that he had surrounded Li Yun with a hundred Devil Race experts and trapped him inside the Hundred Demon God-Sealing Array.
• Zhao Yunzhu questioned Li Yun about the deaths of the Devil Race experts in the White Emperor Inner City, Bai Youruo, the White Emperor’s Legacy, and Tiangu King Mountain.
• Zhao Yunzhu explained that the White Emperor Family was under siege and believed Bai Youruo could not leave to help Li Yun.
• Li Yun summoned the Azure Lotus, surprising Zhao Yunzhu, and confirmed she was his maid rather than Bai Youruo.
• Li Yun said Bai Youruo had killed the intruders and that he had personally killed the four Dao Embryo Realm leaders; Zhao Yunzhu dismissed the claim as nonsense.

Li Yun taunted Zhao Yunzhu with claims about the White Emperor's Legacy, the Sparrow Emperor's Legacy, and Tiangu King Mountain before summoning the mountain and wiping out most of the Devil Race forces. Bai Youruo arrived and killed the attackers who charged Li Yun, leaving Zhao Yunzhu alone and terrified.

• Zhao Yunzhu demanded that Li Yun reveal whether he and Bai Youruo had found the White Emperor's Legacy, and Li Yun claimed they had also obtained the Sparrow Emperor's Legacy.

• Bai Youruo descended from Tiangu King Mountain and killed the charging Devil Race experts with a single sword slash, leaving Zhao Yunzhu alone inside the Hundred Demon God-Sealing Array.

Li Yun defeated Zhao Yunzhu after the latter tried to kill him, and learned that Zhao Yunzhu might have colluded with the Devil Race and hidden its members in the Royal Dungeon. Just as Li Yun prepared to execute him, Bai Fantian stopped him after noticing something unusual about Zhao Yunzhu.

• Zhao Yunzhu attacked Li Yun with a demonic claw, but Li Yun smashed it apart and kicked him into a near-death state.
• Zhao Yunzhu ranted about the Devil Race and threatened Li Yun and the others, while Li Yun questioned him and slapped him.
• Evil Blade Supreme said Zhao Yunzhu had escaped confinement and that Devil Race members had appeared in the Royal Palace, leading him to suspect the Royal Dungeon hid more of them.
• Zhao Ziyue refused to decide Zhao Yunzhu's fate, so Li Yun prepared to kill him.
• Bai Fantian stopped Li Yun, examined Zhao Yunzhu, and secretly told Li Yun something that left him visibly shocked.

Li Yun and Bai Fantian discovered that Zhao Yunzhu had an Innate Demon Heart and decided to seal him away as bait for the Devil Race. At the Royal Dungeon, Li Yun sensed the residual Immortal Rhythm of a Demon Slaying Platform, and the system began loading the Immortal Art Demon Slaying Blade.

• Bai Fantian told Li Yun that Zhao Yunzhu had an Innate Demon Heart and might be useful as bait for a trap against the Devil Race.
• Li Yun used the Hundred Sword Mystic Seal to suppress Zhao Yunzhu, and Zhao Ziyue was relieved that her brother remained alive.
• Li Yun took Zhao Ziyue and the Evil Blade Supreme through the Royal Palace under Great Void Shadow and reached the Royal Dungeon unseen.
• Li Yun used the Eyes of Heaven and Earth at the Dungeon entrance and triggered the system, which detected residual Immortal Rhythm and began loading the Demon Slaying Blade.

Li Yun entered the Mysterious Moon Kingdom’s Royal Palace Dungeon and found it contained an Immortal Art and a large Devil Race force. After discovering the demons had been alerted to his arrival, he began killing them, leaving the first level’s defenders dead.

• Li Yun questioned Zhao Ziyue about the dungeon, but she said ordinary craftsmen built it and Royal Clan experts later added its seals.
• Li Yun concluded the Royal Clan likely did not know the dungeon’s secret, then brought Zhao Ziyue and the Evil Blade Supreme inside through the seals.
• The three discovered more than a hundred Heavenly Human Realm Devil Race members and a Dharma Form Realm commander on the first level.
• The Devil Race commander warned the others that the clansmen taken out by the Demon Son had died and ordered them to kill anyone entering.
• Li Yun sent Sword Light through the first level, killing the Devil Race defenders and drawing their destiny into his Destiny River.

Li Yun cleared the Devil Race from the first two levels of the Royal Dungeon, drawing the attention of a powerful enemy deeper below. With Zhao Ziyue and the Evil Blade Supreme safely moved into Tiangu King Mountain, Bai Fantian urged Li Yun to press on and uncover the Devil Race’s hidden scheme.

• Li Yun led Zhao Ziyue and the Evil Blade Supreme to the second level after wiping out the Devil Race on the first level.
• Li Yun killed nearly all the two to three hundred Dharma Form Realm Demons on the second level and crippled the Dao Seed Realm Demon, which fled to the third level.
• Li Yun absorbed the Devils’ destiny, sensed his affinity with heaven and earth deepen, and glimpsed inspiration for his Dharma Aspect.
• A powerful Devil Race expert called out from the dungeon depths and warned Li Yun to leave the forbidden ground.
• Li Yun sent Zhao Ziyue and the Evil Blade Supreme into Tiangu King Mountain, while the Cloud Cliff Saintess and Bai Fantian took positions beside him.
• Bai Fantian said they could continue deeper and suggested Li Yun had disrupted a concealed Devil Race scheme.

Li Yun and his companions descended to the dungeon’s third level, where two concealed Devil Race Divine Martial Realm experts waited to ambush them. They killed one and drove the other toward the fourth level, while Li Yun’s willpower left him badly drained.

• Li Yun used his shadows to descend with Bai Youruo and Bai Fantian, then discovered two hidden Devil Race experts on the third level.
• Bai Fantian offered to attack, but Li Yun had Bai Youruo strike one expert and let the other escape so the Devil Race would believe only Li Yun and Bai Youruo had come.
• Li Yun used his will to reveal and briefly restrain one hidden expert, allowing Bai Youruo to kill him with a White Emperor's Legacy sword strike.
• The surviving Devil Race expert fled into the fourth level, while Li Yun absorbed the slain expert’s fortune and suffered pain and exhaustion from using his will.
• A furious Devil Race voice warned Li Yun and Bai Youruo to leave, and Li Yun insulted the Devil Race and challenged its members to come out and fight.

Li Yun sat down after provoking the Devil Race and used the chance to recover his mental energy by upgrading Void. Bai Fantian sensed that Li Yun's spiritual realm was advancing far beyond a simple recovery, while the Cloud Cliff Saintess watched in surprise.

• Li Yun asked Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess to guard him while he recovered his exhausted mental energy.
• Li Yun checked his System Panel and decided to spend 800 trillion Martial Cognition Points to upgrade Void.
• Li Yun upgraded Void, and mysterious information flooded his mind as his depleted mental will rapidly recovered.
• Bai Fantian sensed that Li Yun's momentum indicated a spiritual breakthrough, and the Cloud Cliff Saintess was startled.
• Bai Fantian said Li Yun's spiritual realm was making significant progress, though it was too soon to know how far it would advance.

After three days of cultivation in the Royal Dungeon, Li Yun advanced Void to Minor Accomplishment and gained the Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade. He led Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess to the fourth level, where they found the dungeon filled with God-Burning Demon Flame.

• Li Yun cultivated for three days and raised his spiritual realm to the Three Flowers Gathering at the Peak Late Stage.
• Li Yun learned the Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade, a devastating attack that could destroy an enemy's spiritual will and soul but left him weakened if it failed to kill.
• Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess were astonished by Li Yun's progress, and Bai Fantian discussed the importance of Martial Cognition.
• Li Yun decided to continue downward and investigate what the Devil Race was doing in the Royal Dungeon.
• Li Yun, Bai Fantian, and the Cloud Cliff Saintess entered the fourth level and found it filled with black flames that Bai Fantian identified as God-Burning Demon Flame.

Li Yun absorbed the God-Burning Demon Flame on the Dungeon Fourth Floor, refining it to strengthen his body and expose his location to the Devil Race. When six Divine Martial Realm devils approached, Li Yun and the Cloud Cliff Saintess prepared to attack them while Bai Fantian guarded them.

• Li Yun stopped Bai Fantian from extinguishing the God-Burning Demon Flame and began absorbing it to cultivate.
• Blaze Demon sensed the flames disappearing and sent six Devil Race Divine Martial Realm experts, including Mo Bing, to find and seize or kill Li Yun and Bai Youruo.
• Li Yun refined the God-Burning Demon Flame for half an hour, advancing his physique to the Flesh Dharma Aspect Second Layer.
• Li Yun spotted the six devils concealed near the fifth-floor entrance and warned Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess that they were coming.
• Li Yun planned to suppress the attackers with his will while the Cloud Cliff Saintess struck, and Bai Fantian agreed to guard them.

Mo Bing led five Devil Race experts in an assault on Li Yun, but Li Yun's greatly strengthened will overwhelmed them and helped the Cloud Cliff Saintess kill four. Li Yun slew the last two with the Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade, advanced to a King-level Child of Destiny, and then noticed the blade had stirred the stars inside the Gate of Myriad Wonders.

• Mo Bing warned the six Devil Race experts to unleash their wills and coordinate against Li Yun and Bai Youruo before they charged onto the fourth floor.
• Four demons attacked Li Yun with their wills and Divine Abilities while the other two guarded against Bai Youruo, but Li Yun's will overwhelmed all six.
• The Cloud Cliff Saintess struck the immobilized demons with countless Sword Lights, killing the four attackers at the front.
• Li Yun used the Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade to kill Mo Bing and the Triangular-Eyed Demon, absorbing their destiny and advancing from a Marquis-level to a King-level Child of Destiny.
• Li Yun exhausted his will and recovered under cover of shadows as the Devil Race overlords raged over the six deaths.
• After recovering, Li Yun sensed that the Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade had stirred the stars within the Gate of Myriad Wonders.

Li Yun discovered that his Heaven's Will God-Slaying Blade could stir the wills within the Peerless Arts he had mastered, and Bai Fantian explained that it was the embryonic form of a Lifebound Immortal Art. The chapter left Li Yun contemplating the path to transcendence and immortality.

• Li Yun realized that his Will Blade was connected to the stars formed from the cultivation methods and Peerless Arts he had perfected.
• Li Yun asked Bai Fantian how to fully merge the Will Blade with those arts, and Bai Fantian identified it as the embryonic form of a Lifebound Immortal Art.
• Bai Fantian explained that the Great Annihilation Sword Art and Southern Li Heavenly Fire Art were Lifebound Paths created by Forefather White Emperor and Sparrow Emperor, though they had not become true Immortal Arts.
• Bai Fantian told Li Yun that reaching the Integration Realm did not make someone ready to become immortal, because immortality required transcending the self through an Immortal Art rooted in one's own will.
• Li Yun learned that fully merging the wills of his mastered arts with his own could lead to a Lifebound Immortal Art, and he sank into thought about the path to immortality.

Li Yun realized that an ideal could serve as the medium for forging a Dharma Aspect, and the Three Flowers within his Gate of Myriad Wonders fused into a sapling. His cultivation surged into the Dharma Form Realm, leaving Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess stunned.

• Li Yun entered a motionless state that erased his aura, and Bai Fantian found his consciousness blocked by a barrier around him.
• Bai Fantian sensed that Li Yun's cultivation was changing and chose not to interfere, standing guard instead.
• Li Yun understood that an unwavering ideal could serve as the medium for evolving a Dharma Aspect, and the Three Flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man fused into a tiny sapling within the Gate of Myriad Wonders.
• Gray auras seeped into Li Yun, raising his cultivation through the Heavenly Human stages and breaking through into the Dharma Form Realm.
• A gray Mystic Gate and the three-leaved sapling appeared behind Li Yun before fading, and Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess recognized his breakthrough.

Li Yun forged the Mystic Gate Small Tree Dharma Aspect, which was powerful enough to affect even Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess, but he kept its nature secret and worried about the resources it would take to develop it. Finding the Dungeon Fifth and Sixth Floors empty, Li Yun led his companions toward the Seventh Floor, confident they could face whatever the Devil Race had prepared.

• Li Yun's new Dharma Aspect overwhelmed Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess, who could neither clearly see nor remember it.
• Li Yun explained that he would not display the Dharma Aspect again and privately recognized the danger of its power and the difficulty of nourishing it.
• Li Yun wondered whether he would need the Eight Emperors of the Primordial Era's legacies to develop the Mystic Gate Sapling, then set aside the concern.
• Li Yun, Bai Fantian, and the Cloud Cliff Saintess found the Dungeon Fifth and Sixth Floors empty and suspected the Devil Race was luring them deeper.
• Li Yun led Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess down to the Dungeon Seventh Floor, confident in his newly gained strength.

Li Yun and Bai Youruo entered Dungeon Seventh Floor, where they discovered over ten thousand Devils guarding the Immortal Artifact Demon Slaying Platform. As the Devils unleashed a Heaven Grade killing array, Li Yun sensed a terrifying presence within the platform looking back at him.

• Li Yun arrived with Bai Youruo after hiding Bai Fantian in Tiangu King Mountain, and they found over ten thousand powerful Devils on Dungeon Seventh Floor.
• Li Yun recognized the central platform as a fragment of the Immortal Artifact Demon Slaying Platform, while Bai Youruo warned him about the three Void Comprehension Realm Devils guarding it.
• Blaze Demon ordered the Devils to attack, raising the Nine Ultimate Demon Sha Array around Li Yun and Bai Youruo.
• Li Yun used his Eyes of Heaven and Earth to identify flaws in the array and taunted the Devils by demanding the Immortal Artifact.
• Blaze Demon reacted with alarm that Li Yun knew about the Immortal Artifact and ordered his forces to capture them.
• Li Yun sensed two terrifying auras within the platform, and one seemed to notice his gaze and look back at him.

Li Yun sensed two terrifying beings inside the Demon Slaying Platform, then attacked the Devil Race forces rather than wait to die. As the formation activated, a voice from the platform ordered the Devil Race to kill Li Yun and use the Destiny River on him to help the Devil Master slaughter an immortal.

• Li Yun tried to hide himself and the Cloud Cliff Saintess with his Shadow Shroud, but two gazes pierced it and locked onto him.
• After the Cloud Cliff Saintess doubted his warning, Li Yun faced the Demon Slaying Platform and provoked the beings inside it.
• Li Yun unleashed twelve Earth-grade Divine Abilities, killing nearly Three Thousand Devil Race members in a few breaths.
• Three Void Comprehension Realm Devil Race members activated the Eight Demon Banners and ordered their forces to kill Li Yun and the Cloud Cliff Saintess.
• The Demon Slaying Platform shook, and a voice commanded the Devil Race to sacrifice Li Yun's Destiny River to help the Devil Master slaughter an immortal.

Li Yun and his allies slaughtered the devils on the Dungeon Seventh Floor, raising his destiny rank to Emperor-level. When the Pro Demon Lord broke free and attacked, Li Yun summoned his Mystic Gate Sapling and struck him with Primordial Golden Lightning, apparently injuring him.

• The Demon Slaying Platform's Zhao Fangqun held back the Pro Demon Lord and urged Li Yun to kill the devils, while the Pro Demon Lord threatened them and revealed Zhao Yunzhu was Zhao Fangqun's descendant.
• Li Yun summoned Bai Fantian and joined the Cloud Cliff Saintess in wiping out the devils on the Dungeon Seventh Floor, with Tiangu King Mountain absorbing destiny they could not use.

• Li Yun summoned his Mystic Gate Sapling, regained the ability to move, and unleashed the Primordial Golden Lightning Art, blasting apart the Pro Demon Lord's illusory figure and apparently injuring him.

Li Yun helped Zhao Fangqun kill Pro Demon Lord and learned that Zhao Fangqun was the Immortal ancestor of the Mysterious Moon Kingdom. Zhao Fangqun left for the Cloud Realm with Zhao Ziyue and Zhao Yunzhu, while Li Yun received Immortal Enlightenment and a Void Star Chart.

• Li Yun lent his destiny to Zhao Fangqun's golden figure, which struck down Pro Demon Lord inside the Demon Slaying Platform.
• Zhao Fangqun confirmed Pro Demon Lord was dead, thanked Li Yun, and revealed that he had founded the Mysterious Moon Kingdom before leaving the Ancient Celestial Continent for the Cloud Realm.
• Zhao Fangqun asked to take Zhao Ziyue and Zhao Yunzhu with him, and Li Yun agreed after learning Zhao Yunzhu's Innate Demon Heart would be cleansed.
• Zhao Fangqun gave Li Yun Immortal Enlightenment and a Void Star Chart, then took Zhao Ziyue and Zhao Yunzhu through a spatial rift toward the Cloud Realm.
• Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess approached Li Yun, stunned by the battle and the departure of the Immortals.

After surviving the battle with the Pro Demon Lord, Li Yun recovered and reviewed his gains, while Bai Fantian and the Cloud Cliff Saintess stood guard. Li Yun then found a map Zhao Fangqun had left behind, marked with the mysterious Underground Palace at Green Peak Mountain.
