Chen Changan persuaded the mysterious man from the Eternal Land to believe that he could help him reach the Ruler Realm, though the man agreed only to share information and not to become his follower. Chen Changan then learned that the Heavenly Dao had lost all his strength and fallen into a deep slumber after suppressing the man.

• Chen Changan told the man that his father was a Ruler but admitted he had never met him and knew nothing about the Ruler Realm.

Chen Changan and his companions arranged for the Eternal Land to protect the Immortal Ancient Domain from punishment if its entrance was opened again, honoring the sleeping Heavenly Dao’s sacrifice. Chen Changan then left for the Eternal Land with the mysterious person, while the Sky Seal stayed behind to rebuild the domain.

• The group learned that the Heavenly Dao had fallen asleep after binding their opponent, and the mysterious person revealed that he had once argued with a widow and lost.

Chen Changan arranged for Chen Tian and the others to be sent to separate places in the Eternal Land so they could experience hardship, then asked their guide to explain the realm. The guide described the Eternal Land and its four stages but had not yet explained their differences when Chen Changan and Da Huang mocked the names.

• Chen Changan privately asked the guide whether the Eternal Land was dangerous and arranged for Chen Tian and the others to be sent away, with Chen Tian and his daughter-in-law kept together.
• Chen Tian and the others disappeared, and Chen Changan told the startled Da Huang that he had ordered it; Mu Yunyao lamented the family tradition of fathers putting their children through hardship.
• The guide explained that the Eternal Land had no death, was vast, and let its inhabitants pursue their own desires, sometimes to extremes.
• The guide named the four Eternal Realm stages as Mortal Shedding, Throne, Sovereign, and Emperor Supreme.
• Chen Changan, Da Huang, and Mu Yunyao mocked the stage names, then agreed to hear the guide explain the differences between them.

Chen Changan and his companions learned the Eternal Realm’s stages and secured basic resources from Song Yuheng after negotiating for his help. They set out to explore the Eternal Land, whose reality had already disappointed their expectations.

• Da Huang and Mu Yunyao complained that the Eternal Land seemed unimpressive, while Chen Changan urged them to adjust to their new circumstances.
• Song Yuheng explained that people in the Eternal Land were born at the Eternal Mortal Transformation stage, which required passing through Origin, True Self, and Real Self before reaching the Throne Realm.
• Chen Changan questioned Song Yuheng about his strength and persuaded him to provide information and assistance before leaving.
• Song Yuheng gave Chen Changan an Eternal Heart Lock and ten thousand low-grade Eternal Stones, then departed.
• Da Huang and Chen Changan discussed whether reaching the Ruler Realm would let them rest, while Mu Yunyao reminded them that Chen Changan’s father’s crisis still had to be resolved.
• Chen Changan suggested exploring the Eternal Land, and Da Huang reflected that it seemed far less grand than Song Yuheng had made it sound.

After Song Yuheng left, Chen Changan, Mu Yunyao, and Da Huang explored the Eternal Land and found a village whose residents regarded them as dangerously weak outsiders. The village chief warned them to stay until they sensed the Eternal Origin and reached the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm.

• Chen Changan and his companions met a young boy, who mistook their weakness for an illness and led them toward his village.
• The boy let Da Huang pet him and ride him as the group traveled to the village.
• The villagers were shocked by how weak Chen Changan and his companions were, and the village chief confirmed they were outsiders.
• The village chief explained that outsiders were despised and could be captured unless they became Eternal Realm cultivators.
• The village chief told Chen Changan and his companions to sense the Eternal Origin to reach the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm and warned them not to leave the village before then.

Chen Changan and his companions settled in a village in the Eternal Land, where the village chief secretly arranged to sell them to Li Yanran. After discovering the betrayal, Chen Changan and the others went to confront her and learn what she wanted with them.

• Mu Yunyao warned Chen Changan that the village chief and the villagers might not be trustworthy, and Chen Changan urged everyone to cultivate.
• The village chief left the village and went to the Li Family in Tianfeng City to offer Li Yanran three newcomers as goods.
• Li Yanran agreed to visit the village, paid the village chief, and gave him a Jade Pendant identifying him as one of her people.
• The village chief returned with Li Yanran, who was pleased to find Chen Changan, Mu Yunyao, and Da Huang and declared the deal complete.
• Da Huang was pleased that someone considered him valuable, while Chen Changan decided they should find out what Li Yanran wanted.

Chen Changan and his companions confronted Li Yanran after she revealed that she had bought them so she could kill and torment them. Da Huang swallowed Li Yanran whole, leaving her trapped in his belly as Chen Changan turned to deal with the villagers.

• Li Yanran admitted that she had arranged to take Chen Changan and his companions so she could kill them, and threatened to skin and eat Da Huang.
• Da Huang transformed into his Qilin form and charged Li Yanran while Chen Changan and his sister-in-law prepared to handle the villagers.
• Li Yanran struck Da Huang with her palm, but he swallowed her before the blow could stop him.
• The village chief demanded that Da Huang spit Li Yanran out, while Da Huang threatened to expel her in a humiliating way.
• Li Yanran stopped struggling and offered to spare everyone if Da Huang released her, but he rejected her bargain.
• Chen Changan told Da Huang to enjoy himself while he handled the rest.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao fought the villagers who had tried to capture them for the Eldest Young Lady of the Li Family, but discovered the Eternal Land's people could not be killed. The village chief explained that the people were effectively immortal but had children extremely rarely, leaving the story with Chen Changan learning about the village's only child.

• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao joined Da Huang in defeating the villagers who charged at them.
• Chen Changan punished the child who had lured them to the village, then questioned the village chief about the ambush.
• The village chief admitted the villagers had hoped to curry favor with the Eldest Young Lady of the Li Family by handing over outsiders.
• The village chief said he had never seen anyone in the Eternal Land truly die, though people could be reincarnated.
• The village chief explained that the villagers were difficult to kill but also had children only once in thousands of years, and that the child was the village's only descendant.
• Chen Changan learned the villagers sometimes dressed the boy as a girl because they had no girls.

Chen Changan frightened Li Yanran with the prospect of eternal torment until she begged for mercy, while Mu Yunyao rejected her pleas. He then revealed that he mainly wanted information about cultivation resources in the Eternal Land.

• Chen Changan realized Song Yuheng had hidden that people who had not reached the Eternal Realm could still be killed, and he said Chen Tian and the others might be in danger.
• Da Huang spat Li Yanran out and returned to his dog form after Chen Changan teased him about being her father.
• Chen Changan threatened Li Yanran with endless torment because she had mistreated others, and she begged him to forgive her.
• Li Yanran asked Mu Yunyao to intervene, but Mu Yunyao refused and called Li Yanran’s suffering payback.
• Chen Changan asked Li Yanran about Eternal Stones and other cultivation resources in the Eternal Land, and she asked whether telling him would spare her from torment.

Li Yanran explained that Eternal Stones were plentiful in the Eternal Land while heavenly treasures were scarce and valuable. She revealed that outsiders remained instinctively despised even after reaching the Eternal Realm, leaving Chen Changan wondering about the cause before he returned to asking about the land.

• Li Yanran described how scarce heavenly treasures commanded great prices despite the abundance of Eternal Stones.
• Chen Changan considered using the Jade Bottle of Fortune to reproduce heavenly treasures and build wealth and status.
• Li Yanran said reaching the Eternal Realm would not end the locals' hostility toward outsiders, who were recognizable by their souls.
• Li Yanran admitted she herself felt an inexplicable, soul-deep aversion toward outsiders, and neither she nor Chen Changan could explain it.
• Chen Changan set the mystery aside and asked whether the Eternal Land had alchemy.

Chen Changan learned that the Eternal Land’s scarcity of treasures had driven alchemists and other resource-dependent professions to disappear, then questioned Li Yanran about her attacks on outsiders. The chapter left Li Yanran fleeing in terror as Chen Changan, Mu Yunyao, and Da Huang pretended to threaten her and sent Da Huang after her.

• Chen Changan learned from Li Yanran that the Eternal Land had no alchemists or weapon refiners because its treasures of heaven and earth were too scarce to spare for their work.
• Chen Changan asked Li Yanran how many outsiders she had killed, and she admitted to killing two out of deep-rooted loathing.
• Chen Changan said he had planned to reach the Eternal Realm before leaving, while Li Yanran explained that immortality would at least keep outsiders from dying when people attacked them.
• Li Yanran guessed that Chen Changan and the others were good people who had only been scaring her, so they grinned and pretended to threaten her.
• Li Yanran panicked and ran home, and Chen Changan told Da Huang to catch her.

Chen Changan and his companions learned how dangerous it was for Li Yanran to be seen associating with outsiders in the Eternal Land. After natives confronted them and Da Huang beat them up, Chen Changan let Li Yanran go.

• Li Yanran reluctantly accompanied Chen Changan and his companions, fearing that being seen with outsiders would ruin her family’s reputation and get them driven from Tianfeng City.
• Chen Changan wondered whether anyone in the Eternal Land welcomed outsiders, but Li Yanran insisted that nobody did.
• Several natives spotted Chen Changan and his companions and insulted them for being outsiders.
• Chen Changan told Da Huang to make the natives fear them, and Da Huang beat them black and blue while Li Yanran hid nearby.
• Chen Changan found Li Yanran hiding in the grass and told her she was free to leave.

Li Yanran was recognized as the Li Family’s Eldest Young Lady after helping Chen Changan and his companions, and the others accused her family of being traitors. To keep the Li Family from bearing that stigma, she begged Chen Changan to kidnap her and take her away, offering him her Eternal Stones.

• People from the Eternal Land recognized Li Yanran and accused her of conspiring with outsiders, while her attempts to deny it failed.
• Chen Changan and Da Huang complained that the people they had beaten were still unharmed and discussed how to stop them from spreading the news.
• Li Yanran realized that returning home could leave the Li Family branded as traitors and begged Chen Changan to kidnap her instead.
• Chen Changan warned Li Yanran that leaving with them would make people across the Eternal Land see her as a traitor, but she insisted on protecting her family from the disgrace.

Chen Changan agreed to help Li Yanran fake her kidnapping, but learned that her connection to outsiders would keep the Li Family from taking her back. As they set out to cultivate, he discovered Song Yuheng was being hunted and told Li Yanran he knew several Sovereigns.

• Li Yanran sealed the witnesses' recent memories and gave them false memories that Chen Changan had kidnapped her.
• Li Yanran decided to travel with Chen Changan because the mark linking her to outsiders would follow her even if she hid alone.
• Chen Changan contacted Song Yuheng, who complained that people had been hunting him since he returned.
• Li Yanran learned Chen Changan knew several Sovereigns and suggested that drawing attention to him could spare the group some pressure.
• Chen Changan, Mu Yunyao, Da Huang, and Li Yanran set off to find a place to cultivate and break through to the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm.

Chen Changan and his companions discussed the hardships outsiders faced after reaching the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm and sought a way to find heavenly treasures. Their journey took an unexpected turn when Mu Yunyao spotted a strange figure who Li Yanran suspected was not from the Eternal Land.

• Li Yanran explained that outsiders who reached the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm were marked for miserable lives and could not choose to reincarnate until they reached the Throne Realm.
• Chen Changan said he wanted heavenly treasures so the people of the Eternal Land would hate him but fear to attack him, while Li Yanran said such treasures were nearly impossible to find.
• Da Huang mocked Li Yanran’s talent and family resources, and she admitted she was trying to stay on good terms with the group because she had nowhere else to go.
• Mu Yunyao noticed a distant person behaving strangely, and Li Yanran said she felt he might not be from the Eternal Land.

Chen Changan and his companions met a long-suffering outsider who had spent centuries trying to die after being tormented by natives of the Eternal Land. After learning they had captured Li Yanran, the man asked to join their group.

• Li Yanran sensed that a distant madman was an outsider, and Chen Changan and the others went to meet him.
• The madman broke down with relief at finding fellow outsiders and described his years of abuse and imprisonment.
• Da Huang introduced Li Yanran as a native hostage, while the madman admitted that he had spent centuries trying to die.
• Chen Changan suggested the man focus on cultivation, but the man said his efforts had always brought torment while attempts to die gave him peace.
• The madman asked Chen Changan and the others to take him along and let him join their group.

Chen Changan agreed to let Jiang Si travel with them after Jiang Si revealed he knew where heavenly treasures were hidden. When they reached the site, they found dozens of people waiting for the treasures to ripen, and Chen Changan prepared to take them despite Jiang Si's warning about the Eternal Land.

• Jiang Si offered to guide Chen Changan and the others to heavenly treasures in exchange for joining their group, and Chen Changan agreed.
• Li Yanran complained that Jiang Si's arrival meant another person might pick on her, while Da Huang and Chen Changan teased her.
• Jiang Si led the group along deserted routes for more than three months to the place where he had found the treasures.
• The group discovered dozens of people gathered around the treasures, waiting for them to ripen, and Jiang Si admitted the place was not as secluded as he had thought.
• Chen Changan asked Li Yanran about the treasures and said the group could handle the waiting crowd, while Jiang Si warned him that the Eternal Land had humbled him before.
• Chen Changan declared that he was king wherever he went.

Chen Changan charged into a crowd of Eternal Realm natives and repeatedly chopped off their regenerating limbs while his companions watched. As Da Huang counted the flying remains, he guessed Chen Changan was testing the limits of their regeneration.

• Da Huang loudly praised Chen Changan, revealing the outsiders' presence to the natives waiting for the heavenly treasures.
• Chen Changan swaggered toward the natives and demanded their Eternal Stones, prompting them to unite against him.
• Chen Changan rushed into the crowd and relentlessly severed their arms and legs with the Red Dust Sword.
• Li Yanran explained that Eternal Realm cultivators regenerated their limbs instantly and were nearly impossible to kill.
• Da Huang counted the flying limbs and guessed Chen Changan was testing how far their regeneration could go.

Chen Changan explained that the Eternal Land’s inhabitants could regenerate because their bodies and souls contained the world’s Origin Power, then threatened them with bone-picking until they agreed to surrender their possessions. The chapter ended with the captives giving in, while the difficulty of escaping the Eternal Land remained unresolved.

• Chen Changan stopped chopping the captives and explained that Eternal Origin Power made them and their souls regenerate as long as they remained in the Eternal Land.
• Da Huang suggested draining their Origin Power outside the Eternal Land, but Li Yanran pointed out that getting out was difficult and Jiang Si remained trapped there.
• Chen Changan mocked the captives’ earlier arrogance, and they insisted they would never surrender despite their fear.
• Da Huang proposed pulling out their bones, and Chen Changan threatened to try it when the captives challenged him.
• The captives backed down and agreed to hand over everything they had.

Chen Changan’s group discovered that a seemingly ordinary piece of wood was the rare heavenly treasure Azure Dragon Wood, which accelerated the nearby treasure’s growth. After learning it had been there unnoticed, Jiang Si marveled at Chen Changan’s luck, and Chen Changan declared himself Fortune’s father.

• Li Yanran found the Azure Dragon Wood while counting the Eternal Stones, and Da Huang recognized it as a heavenly treasure that sped up the maturation of nearby treasures.
• Li Yanran explained the Azure Dragon Wood’s properties, while the people who had handed over the stones denied that the wood belonged to them and tried to get it back.
• Chen Changan told the crowd to leave, and Da Huang warned that they might spread news of the treasure and bring more trouble.
• Chen Changan learned that Li Yanran had spotted the wood by chance and concluded it had been there all along.
• Jiang Si called Chen Changan the Son of Fortune, and Chen Changan replied that he was Fortune’s father.

Chen Changan and the others identified a nearly mature Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower and learned its value and effects. They decided to wait about ten days for it to mature so they could test whether the Jade Bottle of Fortune still worked.

• Da Huang told Jiang Si and Li Yanran that Chen Changan had always been a privileged heir with powerful backing, not a nobody who rose through hardship.
• Li Yanran counted the Eternal Stones they had obtained and celebrated their haul of two hundred and seventy thousand lower-grade stones and fifty thousand middle-grade stones.
• Chen Changan asked Jiang Si and Li Yanran to identify the nearly mature heavenly treasure, and Li Yanran recognized it as a Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower.
• Li Yanran explained that the flower could boost cultivation speed for ten years and was worth hundreds of thousands of middle-grade Eternal Stones.
• Li Yanran estimated that the Azure Dragon Wood would help the flower mature in about ten days, and Chen Changan chose to wait and test the Jade Bottle of Fortune.

Chen Changan spent the group’s Eternal Stones upgrading the Jade Bottle of Fortune into the Eternal Jade Bottle, leaving everyone without resources to cultivate. As the Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower neared maturity, he prepared for the Eternal Land’s people to return with more Eternal Stones, confident that few could challenge his strength.

• Chen Changan tested the Jade Bottle of Fortune with an Eternal Stone, discovered it could no longer produce resources, and decided to rebuild it using the Origin Power of the Eternal Land.
• Li Yanran, Da Huang, Mu Yunyao, and Jiang Si all stopped cultivating after they ran out of Eternal Stones, while Chen Changan used the entire supply to transform the bottle into the Eternal Jade Bottle.
• Chen Changan explained that the Eternal Jade Bottle could produce resources but would need Eternal Stones to supplement its energy when making large quantities or high-rank treasures.
• Da Huang realized Chen Changan had let their opponents go so they would return with more people and Eternal Stones, and Chen Changan confirmed he expected them to come back.
• Chen Changan said his cultivation had reached the Eternal Mortal Transformation Realm and that he believed no one below the Throne could defeat him.
• Chen Changan said he wanted to avoid getting entangled in endless fights because he could not kill the Eternal Land’s people, and Jiang Si asked whether he was seeking heavenly treasures to make them fear him.

Chen Changan ambushed several hundred Eternal Land natives to collect their Eternal Stones and used Gou Sheng’s Annihilation Fire to torture them. He returned to wait for the Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower to mature, leaving Gou Sheng to keep burning the captives even though they regenerated from ash.

• Chen Changan told Jiang Si, Da Huang, and Li Yanran that he planned to make the Eternal Land natives beg him for help and resources.
• Chen Changan sensed several hundred people approaching, vanished from the flower, and confronted them before they could reach it.
• Chen Changan attacked the group with Red Dust Sword and, after Red Dust Sword objected to stripping flesh from bone, had Gou Sheng engulf them in flames that burned their bodies and souls.
• Gou Sheng sent the captives’ Eternal Stones to Chen Changan as he burned them, and Chen Changan left to wait for the Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower to mature.
• Gou Sheng reported that the captives regenerated even after being reduced to ash, so Chen Changan told him to keep burning them until they died.

After the Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower bloomed, Chen Changan learned that Li Yanran knew about Seeking Jade, a rare treasure that could sense nearby treasures. He used the Spirit Guiding Technique to track the flower’s aura, and it pointed toward another Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower nearby.

• Chen Changan returned, collected the mature Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower, and asked whether the Eternal Land held anything that could help them find treasures.
• Li Yanran explained that Seeking Jade could sense nearby rare treasures, though it was even harder to find than the treasures themselves.
• Da Huang reminded Chen Changan that his Spirit Guiding Technique might locate objects as well as people.
• Chen Changan used the Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower’s aura with the Spirit Guiding Technique, and Da Huang detected another flower nearby.
• Mu Yunyao questioned why the technique had locked onto a single target, and Chen Changan suggested they follow it to investigate.

Chen Changan’s group discovered a second Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower and suspected it was a twin of the first. After the Spirit Guiding Technique failed to locate more treasures, Chen Changan asked Song Yuheng about Seeking Jade and learned that one was held by an Emperor Above Realm expert.

• Da Huang teased Jiang Si after the group found a second Ten Thousand Year Sky Blue Flower near where Jiang Si had searched before.
• Chen Changan and the others searched the area but found no explanation for the flower’s sudden appearance.
• Mu Yunyao suggested the two flowers were twins, and Chen Changan confirmed that the Spirit Guiding Technique failed when he tried using the flower’s aura.
• Chen Changan contacted Song Yuheng and asked where to find Seeking Jade.
• Song Yuheng said he knew of a Seeking Jade held by an Emperor Above Realm expert, and Chen Changan cursed him for giving an unhelpful answer.
