Chen Changan learned that the Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass could link the lives of those who took it, then went with Mu Yunyao and Yue Zhirou to seek the Heavenly Origin Other Shore Flower. Despite warnings about the deadly, mind-bewildering mist, he decided to enter before it disappeared, angering the people waiting outside.

• Yue Zhirou explained that the paired Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass could link lives, and Chen Changan considered using it to protect Mu Yunyao.

• Chen Changan realized the super Heavenly Origin Other Shore Flower had trapped him in an unusual illusion and resisted its attempts to influence his mind.
• The flower’s voice asked Chen Changan whether he had ever lost or known despair, then engulfed him in white mist and cut off his connection to Gou Sheng.

• Chen Changan explained that the Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass would kill everyone who took its daughter plant if he died, then called out Hongchen and ordered it to slash.

Chen Changan emerged alive from the white mist with the Heavenly Origin Other Shore Flowers he had harvested, and the crowd immediately tried to bargain with him. When he proposed trading a hundred flowers in ten days, some cultivators threatened to attack him together, ending the chapter as they prepared to test whether he could face a hundred opponents.

• Chen Changan told Yue Zhirou that he wanted to find resources to help Extreme Intent World Lords break through without relying on the World Bodhi.

• Chen Changan left after asking Mei Yaozu whether there was anything else he should know.

• When the dragon threatened to fight, Chen Changan took out some ordinary food, which the dragon tasted and enjoyed.
• The Sacred Elephant Origin Dragon asked how much essence Chen Changan needed, then worried he meant to take it from the entire clan.

Chen Changan entered the Yellow Springs Netherworld to search for the Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass, but found himself surrounded by endless Supreme Realm rakshasas. After Gou Sheng withdrew to digest the energy he had consumed, Chen Changan faced the growing horde alone.

• Yue Zhirou told Chen Changan that the Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass grew in the ancient, dangerous Yellow Springs Netherworld, and he entered while Mu Yunyao and Yue Zhirou waited outside.
• Chen Changan found a blood-red world filled with ghosts and foul mud, but no sign of the grass.
• Tens of thousands of Supreme Realm rakshasas emerged, and Gou Sheng volunteered to fight them, spreading flames that devoured the horde.
• More rakshasas kept appearing, so Chen Changan recalled Gou Sheng before he overfilled himself; Gou Sheng returned to digest what he had consumed.
• Chen Changan froze and slashed through the rakshasas, but their growing waves surrounded him and left him searching for a way out.

• Chen Changan found the Yellow Springs Netherworld Grass, and the remnant soul said he controlled access to it and could send Chen Changan away.

Chen Changan obtained ten Yellow Springs Netherworld Grasses after agreeing to gather four Holy Spirit Pearls and purify Yellow Springs Netherworld. After leaving the Forbidden Zone, he told Mu Yunyao what had happened and questioned why the pearls needed to come from the Four Extreme Domains, suspecting the remnant soul and Mei Yaozu were hiding something.

• The remnant soul explained that the Nine Nether Domain had lost a war against the Nine Profound Domain and asked Chen Changan to purify Yellow Springs Netherworld so its dead could rest.
• The remnant soul said Chen Changan needed to gather one Holy Spirit Pearl from each of the Four Extreme Domains, and Chen Changan agreed in exchange for all ten Yellow Springs Netherworld Grasses.
• Chen Changan left Yellow Springs Netherworld and reunited with Hongchen, Mu Yunyao, and Yue Zhirou before departing the Forbidden Zone with Mu Yunyao.
• After they left the Forbidden Zone, Chen Changan told Mu Yunyao about the remnant soul's request and said he suspected something was wrong with Yellow Springs Netherworld, the remnant soul, and Mei Yaozu.
• Chen Changan questioned why the four Holy Spirit Pearls that could purify Yellow Springs Netherworld were located in the Four Extreme Domains.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao questioned the Yellow Springs Netherworld’s connection to the Holy Spirit Pearl and returned toward the Eastern Extreme Domain. There, Lin Huafeng learned that the Southern and Western Extreme Domains were advancing, but Da Huang distracted the World Kings with his brothel until Lin Huafeng joined them.

• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao suspected the Yellow Springs Netherworld might be a seal and the Holy Spirit Pearl its key, and they decided to return to the Eastern Extreme Domain.

• Fulong and the Western and Southern Extreme Domain World Kings planned to seize the Eastern Extreme Domain's resources before Qin Huang could claim them.
• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao appeared before the force, and Chen Changan revealed that they were from the Eastern Extreme Domain.
• Chen Changan proposed fighting the two Other Shore Realm World Kings while Mu Yunyao handled the Supreme Realm experts.
• Mu Yunyao charged the Supreme Realm World Kings, while Chen Changan overwhelmed the two Other Shore Realm World Kings.
• The three thousand Great World Lords watched in shock and knelt in midair, accepting their fate.
