Li Yun and Yun Shuiyao entered the Heavenly Mystery Palace’s vast Wilderness, where chaotic heavenly mysteries and suppressive laws hindered their search.

He decided to spend his scarce Earth Immortal-level Cognition to improve the array, hoping it would help with their search for Heavenly Mystery Beasts.

• Li Yun chased a Heavenly Human Realm Heavenly Mystery Beast, killed an Origin Dao Realm expert who tried to steal it, and absorbed its Wind Profundity.
• Chen Jiuxu warned Li Yun that subordinates of Cracked Heaven Crown Prince Li Xin had killed three disciples, while the Cloud Cliff Saintess reported driving off another of Li Xin’s subordinates.

• Yun Shuiyao recognized a trace of Forbidden Aura in Li Yun’s Dharma Aspect and feared what he might become.
• Li Yun’s Mystic Gate absorbed the Earth Immortal Origin, developing phantom Great Dao Rivers and a rapidly growing tree as his body recovered and strengthened.

• Li Yun learned from Yun Shuiyao that the Sacred Heaven Realm had seven Forbidden Lands, though she could name only the Misty Immortal Palace.
• Li Yun tried to inspect the sealed palace, then opened its doors and entered; they shut behind him before Yun Shuiyao could follow.
• Yun Shuiyao failed to reopen the doors and concluded that the palace’s rule recognized Li Yun but not her, so she returned to the plaza to cultivate.
• A gray sky and a thousand rivers appeared across the palace ceiling, each river containing Dao Resonance and Dao Seeds that shone toward the hall’s center.

Li Yun began absorbing the Dao Resonance gathered in the Heavenly Mystery Palace, while Jin Wushuang left the palace to seek the Evil Spirits and restore his lost Immortal Origin.
