• Chen Lin learned that Lin Ergou was his other self, fused with him, and received an Outstanding rating after Dream Gu’s help raised his score.

Chen Lin opened his Life Ferry reward chest, gained the Soul-Unlocking Key and the Eight-Gate Lock-Summoning Technique, and accepted that the Daxuandu Seal and Red Jade had bound him to Nana’s agreement. After returning to Oddity Island, he reflected on the Life Ferry’s purpose and decided to seek the Rainbow Flowers and Rainbow Sword so he could rescue Niuniu.

After learning his family had survived under Mingyue Shuanghua’s protection, he faced a powerful Minghui youth who wanted information about the bird’s master.

Chen Lin attacked the Big-Headed Aliens in Rainbow City, killing their young leader and trapping the remaining forces. With Hong Tingzhen, the Mist Lord, and the Red-Robed King helping to wear down the two surviving leaders’ barriers, White Dragon shattered them and sent the leaders fleeing in separate directions.

After stabilizing Rainbow City, Chen Lin handled the Secluded Family’s plea and thanked Mingyue Shuanghua for saving his family. She warned him that the Rainbow Bridge’s disappearance would transform the realm and reveal Yesterday Manor’s connection to his arrival.

• Chen Lin appointed Jin Ruhua City Lord, left her to govern Rainbow City, and declined to unite the Void Realm’s factions.

• Mingyue Shuanghua warned Chen Lin that the Rainbow Realm would change when the Rainbow Bridge dissipated and told him to beware of the Star Emperor and Yesterday Manor, which she said was connected to his arrival.

Chen Lin visited White Dragon and negotiated for a rainbow flower in exchange for helping him recover, while learning about the Minghui Tribe, the Seven-Star Realm’s laws, and the mysterious Three Rooms. White Dragon’s knowledge left Chen Lin with new concerns about the realm’s fate and led him to ask about Huqiu.

• Chen Lin considered Mingyue Shuanghua’s warning about Yesterday Manor and resolved to resist anyone who tried to exploit his True Solar Fire.

• The Red-Robed King agreed, and fighting broke out in the city before ending in less than two hours.

• Chen Lin announced plans to attempt the Rainbow Bridge and ordered the Void Realm factions that had avoided the war to be dealt with.

After three years with his family, Chen Lin prepared to retrieve the Rainbow Sword and gave Chen Ling'er a Life Invitation Letter and a Character Card so she could seek high-dimensional energy. At the Rainbow Bridge, the Purple Emperor’s key raised the question of whether to undo the Cage Array, and the Mist Lord challenged June and her master as the chapter ended.

• Chen Lin went to the Rainbow Bridge with Hong Tingzhen and the Mist Lord, where they encountered June and Zi Ning carrying a key to the Cage Array.

• The Purple Emperor explained that undoing the array would weaken the Inner World's inhabitants, while the Mist Lord warned that letting it collapse would bring catastrophic karma.
• June threatened the Mist Lord for insulting the Purple Emperor, and the Mist Lord challenged her and her master to fight.

Chen Lin faced the Purple Emperor and his followers as the Mist Lord prepared to fight, but Fire Wa’s arrival shifted the confrontation. After Chen Lin revealed his true solar fire and Liuyue introduced the Purple Emperor’s followers, the Mist Lord killed Li Yuanlei, then the Purple Emperor struck him with a purple rune.

• The Purple Emperor sent a purple rune into the Mist Lord’s forehead, causing his body to turn purple and his aura to flicker.

Chen Lin rescued the Mist Lord from the Purple Emperor’s technique, but the Purple Emperor soon departed after warning him that he remained bound by a final thread. Guo Tiezui explained the ancient Moqigan Clan’s significance and cautioned Chen Lin against pursuing the Purple Emperor and Princess Consort Ning.

• The Purple Emperor’s purple inscription overwhelmed the Mist Lord despite the Red Jade Crown, and the black cat asked Chen Lin to save him.
• Chen Lin used his true soul body to draw the inscription out of the Mist Lord, but even true solar fire and the Soul-Destroying Finger could not destroy it.

• The Purple Emperor left with June and Princess Consort Ning after saying that Chen Lin should wield the Rainbow Bridge’s sword to sever the ties.
• Guo Tiezui stopped Chen Lin from pursuing them and described the Moqigan Clan as an ancient lineage with powerful divine abilities.

• Chen Lin let Xiao Xun stay without a contract, agreed to help him find his mother, and set rules for their partnership.

• Suo Mi warned Chen Lin that a life-and-death crisis coincided with the Thirteen-Fourteenth Great Tribulation, but Little Black Cat said Chen Lin probably would survive it and would obtain the Rainbow Sword.
• Little Black Cat also predicted that Chen Lin probably would not survive a tribulation a thousand years later, leaving Chen Lin worried about his Daxuandu Seal.

• Chen Lin flew onto the bridge without resistance and discovered that its purple section caused his white God Star to shift toward purple.
• As Chen Lin advanced toward the Rainbow Sword, its Sword Will suppressed his power and forced him to continue on foot.

Chen Lin discovered that someone had tampered with his God Star, potentially preventing him from claiming or using the Rainbow Sword, and he began searching for the culprit while cultivating on the Rainbow Bridge. After collecting a Rainbow Flower, he returned to find ancient experts threatening Rainbow City and killed one who challenged him.

• Chen Lin tested the Rainbow Bridge's colored regions, found that his God Star behaved abnormally, and asked Little Black Cat to inspect it.
• Little Black Cat concluded that someone had subtly tampered with Chen Lin's Inner Star, then fell asleep from the effort.
• Chen Lin considered Xiyue, the Soulless Patriarch, and the Myriad Phenomena Porridge as possible sources, but could not identify the culprit.

• Chen Lin collected a Rainbow Flower and left the bridge after finding that its path led toward unstable connections to other planes.
• Chen Lin confronted a black-robed ancient expert who challenged him and annihilated him with his flames and sword.

Chen Lin traded Rainbow Flowers for rare treasures while gathering information about the ancient powers near the Rainbow Bridge. After a strange young man who might be Chen Lin’s Other Self entered the bridge, Chen Lin was left uncertain whether the man recognized him.

• Chen Lin killed the black-robed eternal expert, then negotiated with Tao Xianying and traded her one Rainbow Flower for a strange bracelet and a large Abyss Crystal.

• A young man in red, green, and blue robes mocked Chen Lin and flew into the Rainbow Bridge, leaving Chen Lin wondering whether he was his Other Self and whether he had recognized him.

Chen Lin traded soul treasures with the Veiled Woman, searched the Rainbow Bridge for more Rainbow Flowers, and returned to Rainbow City to find Mingyue Shuanghua gone. He then summoned Yuan Qing in the Nightmare Realm and offered several rare items in hopes of having a mysterious black bracelet appraised.

• Chen Lin traded one Rainbow Flower to the Veiled Woman for soul ash, Tianyi divine water, and dream special sand.
• Chen Lin searched the Rainbow Bridge, found that the hostile Three-Colored Robe Man had disappeared into an unknown plane, and collected only one Rainbow Flower after several dangerous days.
• Chen Lin told Guo Tiezui and the others to watch for the Three-Colored Robe Man and wait for the Rainbow Sword to leave before gathering flowers at its center.
• Chen Lin learned from Jin Ruhua that Mingyue Shuanghua had left Rainbow City, gave Jin Ruhua a Rainbow Flower and other treasures, and discussed the dangers beyond the Seven-Star Realm.
• Chen Lin tested the black bracelet, found that only True Solar Fire affected it, and summoned Yuan Qing to seek an appraisal.
• Chen Lin gave Yuan Qing a Muddled Fruit and several rare items, including a Character Card, and Yuan Qing agreed to approach a powerful appraiser.

Chen Lin reunited with Hua Ruyu, learned she planned to seek out whoever had created her, and received a cryptic warning about a girl with a tri-color flower mark. He then followed Yuan Qing to meet the Appraisal Master about his mysterious bracelet, where the master demanded ten Life Coins and two Character Cards to mark it, leaving Chen Lin offering a Rainbow Flower instead.

• Chen Lin summoned Hua Ruyu, who revealed she had been created through refining and intended to find and eliminate whoever had made her.

• Chen Lin traveled with Yuan Qing to the Appraisal Master's private domain and waited three days to discuss marking the bracelet.
• The Appraisal Master demanded ten Life Coins and two Character Cards, and Chen Lin offered him a Rainbow Flower as a possible substitute.

Chen Lin had the Appraisal Master use a ritual to place a soul imprint on the bracelet, learning it contained a Sun-Swallowing Earthworm larva and owing the summoned being Gleiter a favor. After refining and awakening the creature, Chen Lin found it could only turn into an earthworm and slowly devour flames, so he returned to Rainbow City disappointed.

• Chen Lin traded a Character Card, a Life Coin, the Rainbow Flower, and two three-eyed white jade yams to the Appraisal Master, who revealed the yams were used to refine Three-Eyed Dream Pills.
• The Appraisal Master summoned Gleiter, who identified the bracelet's creature as a Sun-Swallowing Earthworm larva, altered Chen Lin's soul secret pattern, erased the larva's intelligence, and said Chen Lin owed him a favor.
