Chapter Summaries

After ten years of traveling through the Chaotic Void, Li Yun, Daoist Wuwei, and the Divine Tomb Master continued their journey toward the Netherworld Realm. They were suddenly engulfed by a vast Chaos Tide.

• Li Yun called for a rest after ten years of teleporting through the Chaotic Void, and Daoist Wuwei wondered whether the endless void might be a great world.
• Li Yun and his companions absorbed Chaos Qi to recover, and he wondered where the seemingly inexhaustible Chaos Qi came from.
• After Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master recovered, the three resumed their journey.
• Less than seven days later, a Chaos Tide surged toward them from every direction and swallowed all three.

Li Yun struggled to survive inside the Chaos Tide, using the Great Creation Technique to carve through its waves while losing contact with Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master. After three months of isolation and considering escape to the Immortal Scar Realm, he was suddenly pierced through the chest by a bronze halberd.

• Li Yun used the Great Creation Technique to split the Chaos Tide and replenish his strength, but each strike cleared only a small stretch of waves.
• Li Yun sensed Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master far away through the Immortal Gate, then lost contact with both while trying to reach them.
• Li Yun spent three months fighting through the tide and repeatedly failed to locate his companions or determine his position.
• Li Yun considered entering the Immortal Scar Realm as a last resort but hesitated because of the powerful beings hidden there.
• A dim green bronze halberd approached Li Yun unnoticed and suddenly pierced through his chest.

Li Yun was impaled by a bronze halberd wielded by the hidden Immortal Venerable Yin Mang, but he secretly used the Mysterious Gate World to destroy the halberd’s corrosive aura and locate his attacker. Yin Mang approached to claim Li Yun’s body, unaware that Li Yun had concealed his aura and was preparing to counterattack.

• A bronze halberd pierced Li Yun and released an icy aura that rapidly corroded his body.
• Li Yun secretly drew some of the aura into the Mysterious Gate World and crushed it with the Limitless Immortal Rule and other powers.
• Li Yun used the trace of unusual aura to find Yin Mang hiding nearby, badly injured and watching him through an Immortal Gate.
• Li Yun concealed his aura so Yin Mang would believe he was dying, while Yin Mang emerged and planned to devour him.
• Yin Mang grabbed the bronze halberd to pull it from Li Yun and sensed something was wrong, then attacked with a pitch-black giant handprint.

Li Yun used the Immortal Gate and the Limitless Immortal Rule to destroy Immortal Venerable Yin Mang, but the attack left him drained and at the mercy of the Chaos Tide. After recovering, he received a revelation that killing Yin Mang had let him devour the Immortal Venerable's destiny and choose a Great Dao on which to condense an Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit.

• Immortal Venerable Yin Mang sensed that Li Yun was alive and launched a killing move, but Li Yun unleashed a sword of nothingness through the Immortal Gate.
• Li Yun's sword collapsed Immortal Venerable Yin Mang's body, Dao Fruit, fate, and Sacred Dao until Yin Mang vanished completely.
• Li Yun exhausted his power and was swept into the Chaos Tide, where he endured its battering while replenishing himself with Chaos Qi.
• After half a month, Li Yun regained control atop the Chaos Tide and received a revelation from the Supreme Immortal Gate's true body.
• Li Yun learned that he could choose a Great Dao in the Chaos and condense an Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit, and he decided to seize the opportunity.

Li Yun returned his Fate Dao incarnation to the Mysterious Gate World and used it to condense a Fate Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit. He discovered that his Configuration had advanced to the four-colored realm and declared himself the Fate Immortal Venerable.

• Li Yun chose the Fate Dao for his Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit and rejected condensing one through the Limitless Immortal Rule because he intended to make all Three Thousand Great Daos become Immortal Venerables.
• Li Yun sent his Fate Dao incarnation from the Sacred Heaven Realm to the Mysterious Gate World to avoid exposing himself to hidden powerhouses.
• Li Yun’s incarnation transformed into the Fate River, revealing that his Configuration had reached the four-colored realm after absorbing Immortal Venerable Yin Mang’s Fate Number and Configuration.
• The Fate River gathered Destiny Power at the Great Dao Portal, where a Fate Dao Fruit appeared and gave Li Yun the power to draw living beings’ Fate Numbers into the river.
• Li Yun looked across the Void and declared himself the Fate Immortal Venerable.

Li Yun became a Fate Immortal Venerable and discovered that his Fate River could affect beings across the Chaotic Void, provoking powerful Immortal Venerables who treated his path as a taboo. He hid his Dao Fruit with the Mysterious Gate World’s Forbidden Divine Charm and fled the Chaos Tide with Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master.

• Li Yun’s ascension to Fate Immortal Venerable sent a declaration across the Chaotic Void, and Immortal Venerables vowed to find and kill him.
• Li Yun realized that his Fate River could draw the destinies of beings across countless worlds and could eventually threaten even Immortal Venerables.
• Sensing hostile auras closing in, Li Yun withdrew his Fate River and concealed his Fate Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit inside the Mysterious Gate World.
• Li Yun decided to escape the Chaos Tide before pursuers could trace him, then located Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master through their Immortal Gates.
• Li Yun teleported to Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master, brought them along, and began teleporting away from the Chaos Tide.

After killing Immortal Venerable Yin Mang, Li Yun hid with Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master in the Myriad Fire Great World while powerful pursuers searched the Chaos Tide. He told his companions they could expose his trail, leaving them to face the choice of earning his trust or becoming a liability.

• Three months after Li Yun and his companions vanished into the Chaos Tide, powerful immortal Dao avatars searched it for the traces of the one who had violated a taboo.
• Li Yun brought Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master to Ruogu in the Myriad Fire Great World, disguising their auras and settling in a rented estate.
• Daoist Wuwei asked Li Yun whether they had gotten into trouble, and he admitted that he had killed an Immortal Venerable who ambushed him, provoking powerful pursuers.
• Li Yun said his methods had erased his trail and could delay the pursuers for hundreds or a thousand years, but warned that the two companions could lead them to him if their presence in the Chaos Tide was discovered.
• Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master realized they had become Li Yun's fatal weakness and that they had no choice but to submit and earn his trust or be eliminated.

Li Yun secured Daoist Wuwei and Divine Tomb Master’s submission and planned to exploit the Myriad Fire Great World’s factional chaos to gather its fortune and help them advance. The three prepared to infiltrate rival holy lands, but Li Yun told his followers to wait for the right opportunity and enjoy the world in the meantime.

• Daoist Wuwei and Divine Tomb Master swore submission to Li Yun.
• Li Yun explained that the world’s three Immortal Venerables were absent or unable to return, giving them a chance to seize fortune and advance.
• Li Yun assessed the seven major factions and the chaotic struggle among the factions occupying the south’s seventeen immortal continents.
• Li Yun ordered Daoist Wuwei and Divine Tomb Master to join the Azure Fire Holy Land and Western Origin Holy Land under new identities and incite conflict among the factions.
• Li Yun said the Calamity Qi would make the factions easy to provoke, but told the two to wait until the opportunity was right and suggested they first enjoy local food and wine.

Li Yun waited for the Myriad Fire Great World’s calamity to intensify before making his move, while testing whether worsening the crisis could draw more destiny from the Supreme Immortal Gate. As he dined in Ruogu Immortal City, he spotted an Immortal King whose destiny the world’s will had mysteriously concealed.

• Li Yun decided to wait until Calamity Qi spread further through the Myriad Fire Great World, both to avoid attracting Immortal Venerables and to test the Supreme Immortal Gate’s response.
• Li Yun estimated that the southern war would spread Calamity Qi across the world within one and a half to three years, making the identities he had prepared for Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master useful.
• Li Yun, Daoist Wuwei, and the Divine Tomb Master went to a restaurant in Ruogu Immortal City, where Li Yun examined the cultivators’ backgrounds and destinies as they ate.
• Li Yun noticed an Immortal King with Third Grade Immortal King strength concealed as a sixth-grade Mystic Immortal.
• Li Yun discovered that the Immortal King’s destiny was obscured by the World Will of the Myriad Fire Great World, a phenomenon he had never seen before.

Li Yun watched Fang Wujin get cornered by the Three Immortals of Taihang, but the Divine Tomb Master’s casual glance killed one of them and revealed the group’s overwhelming strength. Fang Wujin fled with the two survivors pursuing him, then stopped in a valley and challenged them about their twenty-year hunt.

• Li Yun chose not to investigate the Immortal King’s concealed fate, and three Mystic Immortals entered the tavern to confront him as Fang Wujin.
• The Three Immortals of Taihang threatened the tavern’s patrons and tried to stop Li Yun, Daoist Wuwei, and the Divine Tomb Master from leaving.
• The Divine Tomb Master’s glance caused Third Senior to burst into a cloud of blood, shocking Fang Wujin and the two surviving Mystic Immortals.
• Fang Wujin punched the surviving pair out of the tavern and fled from Ruogu Immortal City, while Li Yun followed and watched.
• After leading the two Immortals of Taihang on a chase for over half an hour, Fang Wujin stopped in a valley and demanded to know whether their twenty-year pursuit was enough.

Li Yun appeared as the First Senior and Second Senior of the Three Immortals of Taihang threatened Fang Wujin, then killed them with a single strike. Fang Wujin mistook Li Yun for a powerful Immortal Emperor, and Li Yun confronted him for trying to manipulate him into clashing with Demonfire Manor.

• The First Senior and Second Senior blamed Fang Wujin for Third Senior's death and moved to attack him.
• Li Yun descended and invited the two seniors to take revenge on him, while Fang Wujin warned him about Demonfire Manor's Immortal Emperor lord.
• Li Yun killed the First Senior and Second Senior by turning them into clouds of bloody mist.
• Fang Wujin realized Li Yun was likely a powerful Immortal Emperor and regretted not fleeing.
• Li Yun accused Fang Wujin of scheming to provoke a conflict with Demonfire Manor, leaving Fang Wujin horrified.

Li Yun easily foiled Fang Wujin’s escape attempts and mocked his cultivation talent, prompting Fang Wujin to challenge Li Yun about his own achievements. Li Yun claimed he reached Third Grade Immortal King before age twenty-five after only a few decades of cultivation, leaving Fang Wujin convinced he was being lied to.

• Fang Wujin used two ancient talismans to attack Li Yun and flee, but Li Yun extinguished the fire and destroyed the spatial gateway.
• Li Yun captured Fang Wujin and brought him to a barren mountain, where Fang Wujin tried to provoke him and then celebrated when Li Yun said he would not kill him.
• Fang Wujin suggested Li Yun accept him as a disciple, but Li Yun kicked him away and dismissed his Third Grade Immortal King cultivation.
• Fang Wujin proudly said he had reached Third Grade Immortal King after cultivating for nine hundred and thirteen years, but Li Yun called his talent merely passable.
• Fang Wujin asked how long Li Yun had cultivated and how old he was when he became a Third Grade Immortal King, and Li Yun said he had been under twenty-five after only a few decades.
• Fang Wujin refused to believe Li Yun and accused him of making up the story to toy with him.

Li Yun challenged Fang Wujin to comprehend the Immortal King technique Three Thousand Dao Flames within three years, offering to take him as a registered disciple if he succeeded. After leaving Fang Wujin to study the Fire Lotus, Li Yun watched from afar, hoping it would awaken the powerful fire-related essence within him while avoiding the scrutiny of the World Will.

• Li Yun offered Fang Wujin a chance to become his registered disciple if he solved a problem, and Fang Wujin accepted the challenge.
• Li Yun revealed the Three Thousand Dao Flames, a Fire Lotus whose three thousand flames represented different Great Daos, and gave Fang Wujin three years to comprehend it.
• Fang Wujin examined the Dao Flames and confirmed that each held power within the reach of an Immortal King, though the technique exceeded his understanding.
• Fang Wujin began focused meditation before the Fire Lotus, determined to master the technique.
• Li Yun left and watched Fang Wujin from afar, hoping the technique would awaken his fire-related essence while avoiding the World Will’s attention.

Fang Wujin’s comprehension of the Three Thousand Dao Flames awakened a mysterious essence that strengthened him and drew the Myriad Fire Great World’s World Will into conflict with Li Yun. Li Yun then unleashed thirty-six Calamity Qi Great Demons, spreading calamity across the world and quietly taking part of the World Will’s authority.

• Fang Wujin comprehended the Three Thousand Dao Flames, and the awakened essence within him raised his cultivation to First Grade Immortal King while transforming his constitution.
• Li Yun suspected that Fang Wujin’s awakening was tied to the world’s origin and provoked the World Will, so he ordered Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master to make the seven major factions fight in half a year.
• Li Yun obtained thirty-six Calamity Qi Great Dao Seeds from his incarnation and secretly planted them in hosts across the Myriad Fire Great World.
• The seeds turned their hosts into Immortal King-level Calamity Qi Great Demons and rapidly spread Calamity Qi, plunging the world into violence and darkness.
• The World Will sent down nine bolts of Heavenly Fire lightning, but the demons had bound their destinies to countless living beings, making them difficult to destroy.
• Li Yun used the demons to seize part of the calamity’s authority from the World Will.

The Myriad Fire Great World's calamity worsened despite the factions’ attempts to stop the fighting, and Li Yun confronted the World Will. It revealed that it was a false World Will tied to the Heavenly Dao Palace, while Li Yun uncovered a possible connection between Fang Wujin and the world’s origin.

• The Myriad Fire Great World’s factions ordered their subordinates to stop fighting and searched for the black hand behind the accelerated calamity, but the ceasefire triggered even fiercer wars and spread Calamity Qi faster.
• The World Will sensed Li Yun after he deliberately exposed a trace of himself, then confronted him with killing intent.
• Li Yun warned the World Will that killing him would unleash the Calamity Qi and awaken the mysterious substances within Fang Wujin.
• Li Yun deduced that Fang Wujin held the world origin and might be the World Will reincarnated as a human, then questioned where the current World Will had come from.
• The World Will transformed into a woman-shaped figure, admitted she was part of the Heavenly Dao Palace, and threatened Li Yun for interfering with its plans.
• Li Yun recognized the Heavenly Dao Palace as a force he had encountered before and wondered about its power and reach.

Li Yun refused Xiao Tianfei’s ultimatum, concealed himself, and intensified his plans in the Myriad Fire Great World. Xiao Tianfei took control of the world’s Three Thousand Great Daos and used her Heavenly Dao Eye to search for him.

• Li Yun rejected Xiao Tianfei’s demand to leave the Myriad Fire Great World and hid his aura behind the Forbidden Divine Charm of the Mysterious Gate World.
• Li Yun accelerated the calamity through the thirty-six Calamity Qi Great Demons and helped Fang Wujin awaken the world origin within himself, raising Fang Wujin’s cultivation to the Immortal Emperor realm.
• Xiao Tianfei discovered that Calamity Qi had doubled and Fang Wujin had grown stronger, threatening her control and plans for the Myriad Fire Great World.
• Xiao Tianfei tried to locate Li Yun again but found that he had concealed himself, and she resolved to confront him.
• Xiao Tianfei overpowered the Myriad Fire Great World’s Three Thousand Great Daos with her own Heavenly Dao and activated her Heavenly Dao Eye to search the world for Li Yun.

Xiao Tianfei failed to locate Li Yun and eventually considered cooperating with him to benefit from the growing calamity in the Myriad Fire Great World. The chapter ended with Xiao Tianfei inviting Li Yun to meet and discuss their cooperation face-to-face.

• Xiao Tianfei searched for Li Yun with her Heavenly Dao, but stopped suppressing the Myriad Fire Great World's Three Thousand Great Daos to avoid alerting its Immortal Venerables.
• Li Yun contacted Xiao Tianfei and proposed that they cooperate while the world's Immortal Venerables were away or occupied.
• Xiao Tianfei hesitated as Li Yun strengthened the thirty-six Calamity Qi Great Demons and continued accelerating Fang Wujin's awakening.
• After five days, Xiao Tianfei agreed to discuss cooperation but demanded that Li Yun stop his actions, and Li Yun refused to accept terms from an opponent.
• Li Yun explained that intensifying the calamity would bring greater luck from the Supreme Immortal Gate, persuading Xiao Tianfei to invite him to meet in person.

Li Yun and Xiao Tianfei negotiated a partnership to enlarge the tribulation and share the resulting fortune while pursuing their separate goals in the Myriad Fire Great World. They sealed the agreement with True Spirit Oaths, but Li Yun’s oath was secretly undone by the Forbidden Divine Charm.

• Li Yun revealed that he knew Xiao Tianfei’s name, then introduced himself and proposed that they cooperate and split the additional fortune equally.
• Xiao Tianfei agreed to help Li Yun conceal himself while he condensed an Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit, and offered to help him face the returning Immortal Venerable.
• Li Yun demanded that his two hidden subordinates receive their planned share of fortune, but refused to reveal their identities or whereabouts.
• Xiao Tianfei insisted that they swear True Spirit Oaths, and both agreed to finalize their cooperation.
• The Forbidden Divine Charm tore apart the aura enforcing Li Yun’s oath, and Li Yun kept the discovery to himself.

Li Yun and Xiao Tianfei used the great calamity to unify the seventeen southern immortal continents under the Heavenly Fire Dynasty while the seven major factions fought among themselves. Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master gained Three-Colored Fate Configurations, and Li Yun prepared to build his strength for the future struggle over the Great Void World.

• Li Yun and Xiao Tianfei joined forces and let Calamity Qi spread throughout the Myriad Fire Great World, driving the seven major factions into war.
• Li Yun established the Heavenly Fire Dynasty, named himself its emperor, and appointed Xiao Tianfei, Daoist Wuwei, and the Divine Tomb Master to high positions.
• The Heavenly Fire Dynasty conquered the seventeen southern immortal continents, while Li Yun stopped Xiao Tianfei from killing Fang Wujin.
• The seven major factions recognized the danger posed by the Heavenly Fire Dynasty but could not unite because their grudges and the calamity kept them fighting.
• Daoist Wuwei and the Divine Tomb Master obtained Three-Colored Fate Configurations, giving them the chance to pursue the Immortal Venerable realm.
• Li Yun reflected on the Great Void World’s importance to a future upheaval and resolved to strengthen himself and his subordinates.

Li Yun tried to condense a Karma Dao Fruit as his second Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit, but the immeasurable karma of the Chaos Great Void trapped him at a bottleneck for three years. Unable to make progress, he visited Xiao Tianfei to seek her advice, and she suspected he still coveted the Myriad Fire Great World.

• Li Yun chose the Karma Dao for his second Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit, hoping its power would complement his Fate Dao Fruit and conceal it.
• Li Yun found that advancing his Karma Dao beyond the Immortal Sovereign level meant confronting immeasurable karma across the Chaos Great Void, and he remained stuck for three years.
• Li Yun realized that the Supreme Immortal Gate's true body had likely given him an extraordinary opportunity to condense his Fate Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit after he killed Immortal Venerable Yin Mang.
• Li Yun went to Xiao Tianfei in the Secret Realm formed from the world origin she had severed, intending to learn from her.
• Xiao Tianfei asked why Li Yun had not made progress toward condensing an Immortal Venerable Dao Fruit and accused him of using that goal as a pretext to pursue the Myriad Fire Great World.
