Chapter Summaries

After Lin Yi became Silent City's Constant Guard, he ordered Mist Sea City's city lord to blockade the Huo Family's floating island, prompting the Huo clan to seek help from its main family. The Rui Family celebrated Lin Yi's rise, and more than a hundred epochs later, Mist Sea City's major families gathered as Lin Yi was due to arrive.

• Huo Han told Huo Wen that Lin Yi had ranked first in both categories of the Constant Guard assessment, and Huo Wen planned to appease the Rui Family while eliminating witnesses.
• Huo Wen ordered Huo Han and the third elder to attack their pirate associates, but Ote arrived with the city guard and sealed the Huo Family's floating island at Lin Yi's request.
• Huo Wen's elders learned the situation and contacted the Silent Huo Family patriarch, Huo Yi, who told them to wait while he handled the matter.
• Ruizhan learned from the Barnes Family head that Lin Yi had become a Constant Guard, and the Rui Family celebrated as the Huo Family's blockade became public knowledge.
• More than a hundred epochs passed with the Huo Family still surrounded, until Mist Sea City's great families gathered outside the island to await Lin Yi's arrival.

Lin Yi returned to Mist Sea City as a Constant Guard and confronted Huo Wen over the Huo Family’s crimes. Huo Wen tried to flee after viewing Lin Yi’s evidence, and Lin Yi revealed that Constant Lord Huo Yi had personally provided the incriminating recording.

• Lin Yi arrived at Mist Sea City aboard a golden Constant Guard spacecraft, where City Lord Ote and the family patriarchs welcomed him.
• Lin Yi went directly to the Huo Family’s floating island and demanded that Huo Wen admit his guilt.
• Huo Wen asked for evidence, but after viewing Lin Yi’s information crystal, he tried to escape and was captured by the Blue-Armored Machine Servant.
• Ote and the gathered family experts seized Huo Han and the other Huo Family elders, then forced them to kneel with Huo Wen.
• Lin Yi projected a recording of Huo Wen admitting that his branch had targeted local families, including the Rui Family, and asked the main family to eliminate future trouble.
• Lin Yi told the stunned patriarchs that Constant Lord Huo Yi had personally given him the recording.

Lin Yi recounted how Huo Yi had provided evidence against the Mist Sea Huo Family branch and valuable information about the Misi Crimson Armor Beast’s blood essence. He executed Huo Wen and six accomplices in public, declared a fugitive elder wanted, and left Mist Sea City’s families on notice to investigate themselves before accepting the Rui Family’s invitation.

• Lin Yi recalled that Huo Yi had personally handed him evidence against the Mist Sea branch and told him where to find the Misi Crimson Armor Beast’s blood essence.
• Lin Yi returned to Mist Sea City, where he sentenced Huo Wen and six accomplices to death for harboring pirates and plundering merchant ships.
• The Blue-Armored Machine Servant and silver-armored Mechanical Servants executed the condemned, but Huo Han escaped because his main body was elsewhere.
• Lin Yi ordered Huo Han added to the empire-wide wanted list and sent the remaining Huo Family members to the city lord’s office for investigation.
• Lin Yi warned the city’s families to investigate their own affairs, declined Ote’s offer of a welcoming banquet, and accepted Ote’s apology for the city’s past inaction.
• Ruizhan invited Lin Yi to the Rui Family’s floating island and promised a thorough internal investigation; Lin Yi smiled and told him to call him Lin Yi.

Lin Yi accepted the Rui Family’s gratitude, settled into his new residence at the Mist Sea City Imperial Army base, and planned his next steps toward the Constant Source Realm. He dispatched clones to handle Constant Guard duties, support the front lines, and investigate acquiring Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence in Silent Vast Great City while he stayed behind to cultivate.

• Lin Yi attended a banquet at the Rui Family estate, then offered Ruizhan help if the family faced future difficulties.
• Pang Yuan escorted Lin Yi to his assigned estate beside Wen Qianfei’s residence, where Lin Yi inspected the cultivation chamber and resolved to pursue the Constant Source Realm.
• Lin Yi concluded that obtaining Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence would be crucial to advancing, but he needed to earn more money to afford it.
• Lin Yi equipped his three clones with rented golden armor and assigned one to patrol Mist Sea City, one to support the front lines and deliver supplies, and one to travel to Silent Vast Great City to investigate the Carlos Family’s blood essence auction.
• Lin Yi assigned Mechanical Servants to protect the Cosmic Clam and assist his remaining clone, then began cultivating in the estate’s chamber.

Lin Yi brought members of the Cosmic Clam into Mist Sea City, began his Constant Guard duties, and continued cultivating while his avatars handled affairs across the Chaos Cosmic Sea. After five thousand three hundred epochs, his third clone reached Silent Vast Great City, where a young woman aboard a merchant vessel watched him depart and wondered whether they would meet again.

• Lin Yi announced his Eternal Source Realm breakthrough and offered the Cosmic Clam's Venerable Lords funds and a chance to leave; Aurelia used a Cosmic Source Soul Crystal to reach Venerable Lord Rank but stayed behind.
• Lin Yi took the departing cultivators to Mist Sea City, gave several close associates much larger allowances, and began investigating organizations and raiding pirates as a Constant Guard.
• Lin Yi gave Li a source fusion marrow crystal, and Li later successfully broke through to the Eternal Source Realm.
• Lin Yi's main body advanced his Chaos Law comprehension to 7.9% over four thousand five hundred epochs, while his avatars continued their duties.
• Lin Yi's third clone reached Silent Vast Great City after rescuing the Jiaxi Merchant Association from pirates and traveling with its fleet.
• Jiaxi's daughter watched Lin Yi's ship depart and asked whether they would meet again, while Jiaxi reminded her that they belonged to different classes.

Lin Yi visited the Silent Vast Constant Guard garrison and asked Kelu for help obtaining Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence from the Carlos Family. Constant Lord Ita refused, but as Lin Yi prepared to leave, Xiluo called him back after Kelu sent him a Soul Transmission.

• Lin Yi arrived at the Silent Vast garrison and met the on-duty Constant Guard Kelu.
• Lin Yi told Kelu he sought Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence, and Kelu explained that the next auction was about a million epochs away.
• Kelu took Lin Yi to the Carlos Family, where Xiluo agreed to introduce them to his father, Ita Carlos.
• Ita told Lin Yi that the family's remaining blood essence had already been reserved, and Lin Yi accepted the refusal calmly.
• As Lin Yi turned to leave, Kelu sent Xiluo a Soul Transmission, and Xiluo called Lin Yi back.

Lin Yi secured Xiluo Carlos’s agreement to exchange his family departure allocation for Misi Crimson Armor Beast essence blood, and Xiluo chose to develop in the Silent Cosmos Domain with Lin Yi. Xiluo’s sister Xiluo joined the plan, and three eras later a recruitment notice advertised their expedition with a Constant Guard accompanying them.

• Xiluo privately discussed Lin Yi with Kelu, learned more about Lin Yi’s abilities, and revealed that he was unsure where to develop after leaving his family.
• Xiluo told Lin Yi he planned to leave the Carlos Family for the Silent Cosmos Domain and offered to exchange his departure allocation for Misi Crimson Armor Beast essence blood.
• Ita Carlos approved Xiluo’s request after Xiluo explained what he knew about Lin Yi, and Xiluo returned to tell Lin Yi the exchange had been agreed.
• Xiluo and Lin Yi agreed to travel together in about ten epochs, and Lin Yi allowed Xiluo to advertise that a Constant Guard would accompany the expedition.
• Xiluo told his sister Xiluo about the plan, and she decided to travel with him; Lin Yi agreed to include her.
• Three eras later, Jiaxi and his daughter spotted a Kantar Chamber of Commerce notice recruiting people to join Xiro Carlos and Xiluo Carlos in establishing a family branch in the Silent Cosmos Domain.

Jiaxi and Jia Di decided to join Lin Yi’s travels after Jia Di recognized an opportunity to become part of a Constant Guard’s new organization. Seven epochs later, they reunited with Lin Yi at the Carlos Family’s floating island, where Xiluo prepared to give him a gift from their father.

• Jia Di argued that Lin Yi had not yet formed an organization and that the merchant association could gain an early place by joining him.
• Jiaxi agreed and registered the merchant association to accompany Lin Yi, partly valuing the chance to escape pressure from powerful factions.
• Seven epochs later, Xiluo and his sister Xiluo waited at the Carlos Family’s docking platform for their departure with Lin Yi and Kelu.
• Lin Yi greeted the Carlos siblings and reunited with Jiaxi and Jia Di, who had accepted Xiluo’s transport commission.
• Xiluo presented Lin Yi with an ink-cyan crystal box containing something entrusted to him by his father.

Lin Yi accepted a drop of Eternal Dark Constant Fusion Beast blood essence from Yi Ta and agreed to look after Xiluo and her brother as they settled in Mist Sea City. After helping them and Jiaxi establish themselves, he used the blood essence to begin forming his second seal pact.

• Lin Yi opened Yi Ta's gift, learned the Constant Lord wanted him to guide Xiluo and her brother when possible, and accepted the blood essence as a father's token of gratitude.
• Lin Yi recommended that Xiluo and her brother settle in Mist Sea City, and they agreed to move there with Jiaxi and his daughter.
• After returning to Mist Sea City, Lin Yi helped Xiluo's brother choose a floating island and arranged for Jiaxi's association to buy a neighboring island.
• Lin Yi explained Mist Sea City's shifting factions and the Rui Family's improved position, while Xiluo's brother asked whether the Rui Family made floating shuttles.
• Lin Yi selected the Eternal Dark Constant Fusion Beast blood essence over the Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence and began cultivating to form his second seal pact.

Lin Yi completed his second Chaotic Origin Seal Pact, choosing Constant Union as a one-use escape ability, and accepted an exchange-study opportunity at Constant Island. After traveling for thirteen thousand Epochs, he reached the island and received temporary access to its inner island.

• Lin Yi endured the Eternal Dark Constant Fusion Beast essence blood’s soul impact and chose its Constant Union secret art for his second Seal Pact.
• Lin Yi spent over two thousand Epochs stripping the Constant Union imprint and linking it to his Eternal Pact prototype before Wen Xiao contacted him about Constant Island.
• Lin Yi accepted Wen Xiao’s exchange-study offer, completed the Constant Union Seal Pact, and sent messages to the Xiluo siblings, Wen Xu, Li, and Wen Qianfei before departing Mist Sea City.
• After thirteen thousand Epochs of travel, Lin Yi received a temporary exchange identity from Constant Island and saw the island emerge in the void.

After reaching the third stage of the Eternal Source Realm, Lin Yi arrived at Constant Island as an exchange student and studied its facilities, exchange catalog, and trial system. He settled into his assigned residence, where the compound intelligence announced that a visitor had requested entry.

• Lin Yi entered Constant Island, completed his registration with Heng Chen, and received an emblem and an information handbook.
• Lin Yi searched the exchange catalog and found blood essences from highly ranked exotic beasts, though they required far more points and trial qualifications than he had.
• Lin Yi studied the handbook, learning about Constant Island’s cultivation facilities, courses, points, and dangerous trial missions.
• Lin Yi reviewed the handbook’s restrictions and inferred that exchange placements were intended to attract future members and supporters to Constant Island.
• Lin Yi reached his residence in the Seventh Court and began preparing to study trial missions, but the compound intelligence announced a visitor.

Lin Yi met the Constant Guards Jace and Geke, who explained how trial teams were formed and brought him to the mission hall. His two divine-grade Seal Pacts made him an immediate recruiting prospect, but a mission listing on the central display caught his attention as several cultivators approached him.

• Lin Yi welcomed Jace and Geke, who introduced themselves and discussed the strength requirements and Seal Pact rankings used to recruit trial teammates.
• Lin Yi told them he was at the third level of the Eternal Source Realm and had two divine-grade Seal Pacts, so they said he was too weak to join their intermediate trials but would attract beginner-level teams.
• Jace and Geke accompanied Lin Yi to the mission hall and told him about the island's layout and how squads competed for trial openings.
• At the mission hall, Lin Yi saw recruitment listings and noticed cultivators turning their attention toward him after recognizing him as a Constant Guard.
• Several cultivators rose to approach Lin Yi, but he became absorbed by a mission on the central light screen.

Lin Yi was rejected by combat teams because his cultivation was too low, so he decided to pursue research-type trials instead. After considering Jess’s advice, he used his first deposit-free mission to accept the advanced trial to restore ancient Law Inscriptions.

• Losen and Vika invited Lin Yi to exchange Contact Marks but declined to recruit him because his strength did not meet their teams’ requirements.
• Other Inner Island cultivators also exchanged Contact Marks with Lin Yi and left without mocking or belittling him.
• Jess warned Lin Yi that research missions carried risks and advised him to choose his first deposit-free mission carefully.
• Lin Yi decided that his avatar could handle research missions while his main body condensed a third Seal Pact using Misi Crimson Armor Beast blood essence.
• Lin Yi reviewed the advanced research missions and accepted the trial to restore ancient Law Inscriptions.

Lin Yi accepted Eric’s high-level mission to repair an ancient Law Inscriptions fragment despite Eric’s warning that it was unlikely he could finish in time. While his clone began studying the damaged fragment, Lin Yi formed a third seal pact by extracting the Misi Crimson Armor Beast’s Blazing Condensation secret art, boosting his soul comprehension.

• Lin Yi traveled to Eric’s manor to collect the damaged Ancient Law Inscriptions fragment, and Eric tried to persuade him to cancel the mission because previous students had needed nearly two million Epochs to complete it.
• Lin Yi thanked Eric for his concern but insisted on trying, so Eric gave him the sealed fragment and warned him to return it intact.
• Lin Yi returned to his courtyard and assigned his clone to study and repair the fragment using Spiritual Enlightenment Qi.
• Lin Yi chose the Misi Crimson Armor Beast’s Blazing Condensation secret art and began forming a third seal pact with its essence blood.
• After stripping and shaping the secret art over thousands of Epochs, Lin Yi completed the third seal pact and felt his soul comprehension rise to at least the high stage of the True Source Realm.

Lin Yi advanced to the fourth stage of the Eternal Source Realm and completed the repair of an ancient reinforcement rune, then brought it to Eric. Eric mistakenly assumed Lin Yi had given up on the repair task and welcomed him for recognizing his limits.

• Lin Yi studied Law Inscriptions and Eric Fanzhuo's repair methods, then continued repairing the ancient inscription while cultivating his law comprehension.
• Lin Yi reviewed his clones' patrol gains and learned that the Black Silence Beast Tide was growing more intense, raising concerns for Mist Sea City's defenses and his friends.
• After nineteen thousand epochs of cultivation, Lin Yi surpassed thirty percent law comprehension and entered the fourth stage of the Eternal Source Realm.
• Lin Yi and his clone finished repairing the inscription, discovered it was an unusually powerful ancient reinforcement rune, and confirmed that it functioned.
• Lin Yi stored the repaired rune and went to Eric's manor, where Eric assumed he had come to abandon the task and told him to enter.

Lin Yi returned the fully restored Law Inscription fragment to Constant Lord Eric, who awarded him a perfect mission rating and recognized his exceptional cultivation and inscription talents. Eric brought Lin Yi to meet Deputy Island Lord Xi Mo about a mission, leaving him standing before her in the heart of Constant Island.

• Lin Yi delivered the restored fragment to Eric, who initially mistook his visit for an attempt to abandon the task before discovering it had been perfectly repaired.
• Eric learned that Lin Yi had reached the fourth rank of the Eternal Source Realm after a little over seventy thousand epochs of cultivation and had restored the fragment with an avatar after studying inscriptions for only a little over three thousand epochs.
• Eric rated Lin Yi's mission completion as perfect and asked how many reds he had; Lin Yi said he had three, all divine-grade Chaos Seal Pacts.
• Eric reported Lin Yi's abilities to Deputy Island Lord Xi Mo, who asked to meet him about a mission to reactivate the Eternal Source Ring Ruins.
• Lin Yi agreed to meet Xi Mo, and Eric transported him to her tower, where he introduced Lin Yi to the deputy island lord.

Dao Lord Xi Mo and Eric explained the Eternal Source Ring Ruins Trial to Lin Yi, revealing that its real purpose was to recover lost Law Inscription knowledge from the First Constant Domain. Lin Yi learned that Constant Island wanted him to study the changing inscriptions while the other participants protected him, and he realized the trial would put them in danger on his behalf.

• Lin Yi greeted Dao Lord Xi Mo and guarded the secret of his Purple Mist Space while Xi Mo teased him about having a hidden opportunity.
• Xi Mo told Lin Yi he fit the requirements for a top-tier trial, and Eric described the Eternal Source Ring Trial’s individual and team stages, rules, and withdrawal safeguards.
• Lin Yi asked about the trial’s rewards and why Constant Island still organized it, and Eric explained that the Eternal Source Ring contained a vast, lost Law Inscription system that participants could study only while it operated.
• Eric revealed that Dao Lord Xi Mo would lead the expedition and that other participants would protect Lin Yi during the team trials so he could focus on learning the inscriptions.
• Lin Yi realized that Constant Island’s finest Eternal Source Realm cultivators were being recruited largely as his bodyguards in a dangerous expedition.

Lin Yi agreed to join the Constant Island’s seventh Eternal Source Ring Trial after learning about its importance, location, and duration. He secured an advance of six top-ten beast blood essences, and Eric explained that both Lin Yi and the Constant Island were taking a calculated risk.

• Eric explained how Eternal Source Inscriptions supported the Constant Domain and why restoring Imperial Era inscription technology mattered.
• Lin Yi asked about the trial’s location and duration, and Eric said it lay in the First Constant Domain and would take up to seven hundred thousand epochs.
• Lin Yi requested an advance of six drops of blood essence, excluding those ranked seventh and ninth, to support his Nine Source Eternal Pact Art.
• Dao Lord Xi Mo granted the blood essence at standard exchange prices and required Lin Yi to repay the debt with trial points or remain on the Constant Island.
• Eric told Lin Yi that the Constant Island had selected him as the core candidate for its seventh trial, and that both sides expected a return from their choice.

Lin Yi spent his contribution points on combat secret arts and accepted six drops of essence blood for the upcoming Eternal Source Ring top-tier trial. As Constant Island assembled a team around him, he received his items and prepared to use the twenty-thousand-epoch wait to forge the essence blood into Chaos Seal Pacts.

• Lin Yi exchanged his Constant Guard contribution points for the Nine Seal Cosmos Eternal Source Secret Art Collection, Pact Condensation, and Swift Thunder, then spent his Constant Island points and an advanced mission credit on the defensive art Gilding.
• Constant Island announced the Eternal Source Ring top-tier team trial with Lin Yi as its sole core member, and trainees across the island crowded the mission hall and discussed the news.
• Vika and Luo Sen recognized Lin Yi's name on the mission notice and reconsidered their earlier assumptions about his standing and ability.
• A Blue-Armored Machine Servant delivered Lin Yi's three information crystals, and a purple-robed Mechanical Servant delivered the six drops of essence blood and Gilding on Dao Lord Xi Mo's order.
• Lin Yi studied the secret arts and learned that the team would depart in twenty thousand epochs, giving him time to turn the essence blood into Chaos Seal Pacts.

Lin Yi completed his Voidless seal pact and spent more than ten thousand epochs improving his law comprehension before receiving the final roster and departure notice for the Eternal Source Ring trial. With one epoch left, he searched for a desperate-burst secret art and discovered Soul Source Slaying, whose talent-burning drawback might barely affect him.

• Lin Yi reassigned his clones to practice secret arts and handle invitations, then began condensing a seal pact from the Voidless Time Titan Beast's essence blood.
• Lin Yi endured chaotic temporal fragments, separated the Voidless imprint, and completed the Voidless seal pact after more than nine thousand epochs.
• Lin Yi used more than ten thousand epochs to improve his law comprehension, which reached 33.98%, while his Mist Sea City clones mastered their assigned secret arts.
• Lin Yi received the completed roster for the seventh Eternal Source Ring expedition and learned that the team would depart in one epoch.
• Lin Yi searched the exchange catalog for a desperate-burst secret art and found Soul Source Slaying, which burned innate soul talent irreversibly but could not burn talent gained from external sources.
• Lin Yi reasoned that his innate talent was so low that Soul Source Slaying might have little effect on him and wondered whether Emperor Zao Ya had created it for the same reason.
