Chen Lin and his companions discovered that they could not leave the cyan stone street, and their Road Guides could not cross the scenario’s boundaries. With nightmare transformation threatening Gou Yushan, they searched for a way out and began testing the statues, but found no clue.

• Chen Lin failed to pass through the node, then bound Gou Yushan with a Soul Contract and used innate power to delay his nightmare transformation.
• Chen Lin led Gou Yushan, the Hundred Flowers Fairy, and Grass along the street, where they encountered a barrier that neither their Road Guides nor the Hundred Flowers Fairy could cross.
• Chen Lin found that the barrier extended through the surrounding woods and above the treetops, confirming that their Road Guides had stopped working.
• After examining the street and trees without finding anything unusual, Chen Lin decided to investigate the statues using Crow Puppets.
• Chen Lin sent more than a dozen Crow Puppets toward and onto the statues, but they showed no reaction beyond revealing the boundary’s extent.

• Nearly ten thousand statues formed ranks and marched toward Chen Lin and his companions.
• As Gou Yushan panicked and the army's pressure overwhelmed the group, Chen Lin ordered Grass to attack the statues on the other side.

Chen Lin and his companions faced two armies of statues before the Black Pagoda Bruiser appeared and challenged them to fight. Hua Ruyu killed him and Chen Lin discovered his token opened a blocked node; Hundred Flowers Fairy entered first as they prepared to leave for the Spirit Demon Realm.

• The two Statue Armies gathered at Bluestone Street but held their positions instead of attacking each other.
• The Black Pagoda Bruiser rode through the Formless Barrier and challenged Chen Lin’s group to fight.

• Chen Lin’s group chose to leave for the Spirit Demon Realm, and Hundred Flowers Fairy entered the node first with her petal’s Defense Light Barrier activated.

Chen Lin discovered that only the person who obtained an exit token could use the space node, so he left the Nightmare Realm while the Hundred Flowers Fairy and Gou Yushan remained behind to fight for their own escape. In the Spirit Demon Realm, he made plans to protect his allies and waited in concealment, but neither of the others emerged after two hours.

• Chen Lin tested the space node and found that Gou Yushan and the Hundred Flowers Fairy were rejected, while Grass and Hua Ruyu could enter as his contract servants.

• As Chen Lin moved to greet Hua Ruyu, another figure leaped out of the node and stopped him in his tracks.

Lan Ruxue visited Chen Lin and returned Niuniu’s talisman, which she believed had frightened the mysterious expert who recovered it. She asked Chen Lin to seek the Ascension Pill formula if he encountered the skeletal old man, then urged him to return with her to the Immortal Palace for protection from the reincarnated expert.

• Lan Ruxue arrived in Chen Lin’s plane and crushed a rank-six Dark Giant Flood Dragon that blocked their way.
• Lan Ruxue noticed a ruin beneath the seabed, but she and Chen Lin continued to the island where Chen Lin was staying.
• Lan Ruxue gave Chen Lin Niuniu’s talisman, explaining that Yu Gongyuan had delivered it after a mysterious expert asked him to pass it on.

• Chen Lin told Lan Ruxue that the reincarnated expert had targeted his talent origin, and Lan Ruxue warned him not to assume its mark was removed.
• Lan Ruxue advised Chen Lin to have a Guardian examine his talent origin and offered to take him to the Immortal Palace for protection.

Chen Lin returned to Central City, reunited with Mu Xingchen and Yang Zishi, and tried to find a way to stop Mu Xingchen’s assimilation before settling into cultivation in the Immortal Palace. A year later, he emerged to learn that Central City had grown overcrowded and tensions were rising as Tianxuan Day approached.

• Chen Lin returned to Central City with an Immortal Palace Identity Token and checked on Luo Qinglan, whose recovery was progressing well with Yang Zishi’s help.
• Chen Lin tried using the Thunder God Sword’s remaining origin essence to treat Mu Xingchen, but stopped when he realized it would destroy Mu Xingchen along with the assimilated energy.
• Chen Lin recorded the Nightmare Realm node locations he knew and gave copies to Mu Xingchen to share with True Lord Wanmeng and others, keeping the Jingguang Realm node secret except from Yang Ziqing and Zhou Shiwu.
• Chen Lin settled his companions into the Immortal Palace and began secluded cultivation, using its dense spiritual qi and the Four Symbols Spirit-Swallowing Pill.
• After a year of cultivation, Chen Lin asked Mu Xingchen about events in Central City and learned that tensions had risen, factions were active, and the city was overcrowded with cultivators.

Chen Lin learned that Shang Xuelian had entered a dangerous Spirit Demon Realm node and that the Listen-Wind Post had closed, then opened a storage pouch taken from a Black Flood Dragon. Examining its contents revealed Hua Ruyu could absorb Demonic Qi and that two bone shards reacted to the Thunder God Sword’s Innate Power, leaving Chen Lin with two mysterious characters to investigate.

• Mu Xingchen reported that True Lord Wanmeng was exploring a Nightmare Realm node, Shang Xuelian had entered the Spirit Demon Realm node, and the Listen-Wind Post had been closed for days.
• Chen Lin ordered Mu Xingchen to seek information about other plane nodes and learned that the dark object from the Black Flood Dragon was an Ancient Yaoguai storage pouch opened by pure monster power.
• Chen Lin used a formation and a monster core to open the pouch, finding Common Grade Spirit Treasures, demon crystals, gemstones, and two bone shards.
• Hua Ruyu absorbed the demon crystals through her horns, but said their energy was too low-grade to restore her abilities.
• Chen Lin brought a bone shard into the Nightmare Realm’s Small Woods, where it manifested, and reasoned that it might contain Immortal Power and connect the Ocean Floor Ruins to an Immortal Abode.
• Chen Lin struck both bone shards with the Thunder God Sword’s Innate Power and saw a different unfamiliar character appear on each before the markings vanished.

Chen Lin waited for Luo Qinglan to awaken while investigating the Taixu Script on two bone shards. After she revived, she resolved to recover in time for the coming plane fusion and began studying the script.

• Chen Lin offered to take Yang Zishi as a formal disciple, but she lowered her head without answering, so he let her return to cultivation.
• Mu Xingchen identified the bone-shard writing as Taixu Script, used by immortals, and told Chen Lin that Luo Qinglan might recognize it.
• A month later, Luo Qinglan awakened from the Vermilion Bird Feather, and Chen Lin told her about his search for Lingyu and the others and the approaching plane fusion.
• Luo Qinglan said her bloodline danger should be gone and urged Chen Lin to take Yang Zishi as a concubine, but he insisted they focus on surviving the plane fusion.
• Luo Qinglan recognized the bone-shard characters as Taixu Script and began studying them while refining the Nine-Turn Soul-Condensing Pill.

Chen Lin and Luo Qinglan studied Taixu Script and prepared for Tianxuan Day before attending a trading convention at the Immortal Palace. The convention opened with a dangerous yin-soul treasure, and Fairy Yue then presented a blood saber with a potentially deadly cost.

• Luo Qinglan shared her Taixu Script annotations with Chen Lin and explained that one character on the bone shard seemed to describe a spell.
• Chen Lin resumed cultivation and studied Taixu Script while waiting for Tianxuan Day, then agreed to attend the Immortal Palace trading convention with Luo Qinglan.
• Chen Lin and Luo Qinglan discussed finding her a better soul cultivation technique or a way to rebuild her dharma body before entering the convention.
• Fairy Yue opened the convention by presenting a Soul-Sealing Bead containing an untamed Void Refinement-level yin soul, which a cultivator bought for two thousand spirit crystals.
• Fairy Yue introduced the Blood-Shatter Saber, warning that its blood spirit could reach late Void Refinement but might drain its wielder's vital blood completely.

Chen Lin traded for a Space-Locking Talisman and later exchanged his medicines for rare texts and Nightmare Realm information at the Immortal Palace convention. He left with several texts that might contain knowledge about true souls and Taixu Script, while the coming plane fusion remained a looming danger.

• Chen Lin declined to bid on the Blood-Shatter Saber, then offered twenty Nightmare Coins and obtained Fairy Yue's Space-Locking Talisman.
• Fairy Yue opened the free-trading session, and Chen Lin absorbed the Fortune Accumulation Orb's qi luck before using his Fate Tentacle to alter his destiny lines at the cost of a severe backlash and talent origin.
• Chen Lin offered Nascent-Crossing Pills, Ending Hostility Pills, and Drunken God Brew in exchange for soul-related materials, Nightmare Realm items, and rare texts.
• Chen Lin rejected several offers of node locations because he already knew them or they were too far from Central City to be useful.
• Chen Lin exchanged portions of Drunken God Brew for a text on miraculous objects and several other rare texts that might hold information he sought.

Chen Lin discovered how to draw energy from the true soul wood and raised his soul power to the peak of the silver soul level as Tianxuan Day approached. After he and his companions decided to remain in their plane, Hua Ruyu returned with Gou Yushan’s Storage Bag, leaving Chen Lin shocked.

• Chen Lin, Luo Qinglan, Mu Xingchen, and Yang Zishi agreed to remain in their plane and wait for Tianxuan Day.
• Hua Ruyu told Chen Lin she had visited a node in the Spirit Demon Realm and retrieved Gou Yushan’s Storage Bag from his transformed statue.

Hua Ruyu gave Chen Lin Bone Shards she had recovered from the Spirit Demon Realm and asked to search for an important object when Plane Fusion weakened the barriers between planes. Chen Lin and Luo Qinglan found that the nine shards recorded an incomplete spell and warned that the Triangular Bone Shard might have dangerous spatial properties; as Tianxuan Day arrived, Luo Qinglan urged Chen Lin to stay close to her.

• Hua Ruyu told Chen Lin she had retrieved Bone Shards from the Ocean Floor Ruins and asked him not to summon her for up to a hundred years while she searched for an important object.
• Chen Lin gave Hua Ruyu the red gemstone from the Cat-headed Monster, but she could not remember what it was for and warned that her memories might never fully return.
• Chen Lin examined the seven Bone Shards from Hua Ruyu and found that six of their characters appeared in the Taixu Script Bamboo Scroll.
• Luo Qinglan determined that the nine Bone Shards formed an incomplete spell and cautioned that the Triangular Bone Shard might contain a small space or have other spatial properties.
• Luo Qinglan asked Chen Lin to remain beside her so she could protect him from spatial turbulence, and Tianxuan Day arrived.

As the plane fusion began, Chen Lin watched the formations unite the three realms in a realm-fixing net and learned that Hua Ruyu foresaw the fusion would fail. The chapter ended with Bai Yuandu swallowing a strange blood-red pill as he prepared for the decisive attempt.

• Chen Lin met Mu Xingchen, Jin Xingyun, and Dantai Yunjin in the Inner City, where he learned that Wanmeng was inside an unstable Nightmare Realm node and that other known nodes were unstable too.
• The plane fusion began, shaking the city and preventing Chen Lin from seeing his or Luo Qinglan’s destiny lines.
• Formations across the Southern Star Realm, Northern Star Realm, and Rainbow Realm activated and created a light net that thickened the rules of heaven and earth.
• Hua Ruyu told Chen Lin that her intuition said the fusion would definitely fail and that she wanted to keep him safe before leaving for another plane.
• The City Guard identified the descending light net as the realm-fixing net and warned cultivators not to touch its strands.
• Bai Yuandu swallowed a writhing blood-red pill on a mountain in the Rainbow Realm and began refining it as his aura surged.

As the light net completed the plane fusion, Chen Lin and his companions endured violent spatial turbulence and feared that Bai Yuandu’s plan might draw the Crimson Giant Eye. The fusion changed the realms’ laws and triggered widespread breakthroughs, while Bai Yuandu prepared to seize his chance amid the tribulations.

• Chen Lin suspected Bai Yuandu planned to undergo the immortal ascension tribulation and warned his companions that the Crimson Giant Eye might appear.
• Chen Lin chose to stay in Central City rather than risk entering a nearby Nightmare Realm node, and Jin Xingyun and Dantai Yunjin abandoned their plan to go there.
• The light net landed and merged into the earth, unleashing an hour of spatial turbulence that killed or injured cultivators caught by its rifts.
• After the turbulence ended, spiritual qi and rule intent surged, many cultivators broke through, and Yang Zishi began her nascent soul tribulation while Chen Lin advanced to the late Spirit Transformation realm.
• In the Rainbow Realm, Bai Yuandu watched the many tribulations and declared that his opportunity had arrived.

As the plane fusion completed, cultivators across the realms seized the surge in spiritual qi to advance, while Bai Yuandu used harvested souls and sacrificial clones to survive the Three Calamities. He emerged transformed and faced the Ascension Ladder, as Chen Lin sensed that a major upheaval was approaching.

• The completed plane fusion strengthened the Heaven and Earth Rules, and Wei Duxing, Chen Lin, Dantai Yunjin, and countless other cultivators advanced or attempted breakthroughs amid the destruction.
• Bai Yuandu sacrificed his essence blood and used a vortex to draw out miniature skeletons, while Ye Luo, Ling Qianxue, and others had their souls pulled from their bodies.
• Bai Yuandu kept Ye Luo and Ling Qianxue among three miniature skeletons, fused the others into himself, and summoned an immortal ascension tribulation that swallowed the surrounding tribulation clouds.
• Bai Yuandu sent a clone to divert part of the lightning calamity, then endured the remaining Three Calamities and regrew his body as a handsome young man.
• Chen Lin stabilized his late Spirit Transformation realm, while Yang Zishi formed her Nascent Soul and Dantai Yunjin reached Spirit Transformation; Hua Ruyu warned Chen Lin that an enormous upheaval was near.
• Bai Yuandu saw a colorful Ascension Ladder descend before him, ready to ascend and escape samsara.

The Crimson Giant Eye attacked the fused planes with an Immortal-Slaying Arrow, devastating the Rainbow Realm and killing Bai Yuandu’s newly restored body. Before vanishing, it sent a red streak toward Central City, where Chen Lin faced an unknown life-or-death threat.

• The Crimson Giant Eye appeared over the Rainbow Realm, and its evil aura disrupted cultivators across the fused planes.
• Bai Yuandu summoned a giant black sword and used the continent formations to attack the Giant Eye, but its Immortal-Slaying Arrow shattered the sword and struck at him.
• Bai Yuandu restrained the arrow while the Bone Bird attacked the Giant Eye, but the arrow’s final eruption destroyed his flesh, the Bone Bird, and the White Bone Holy Ship.
• A miniature skeleton survived underground, but Xuanyin captured it inside the Yellow Springs Scroll and took it away.
• The weakened Giant Eye fired a red streak toward Central City before vanishing, leaving Chen Lin in a life-or-death crisis.

Chen Lin hid in the Nightmare Realm to evade the red light that had locked onto him, leaving Grass and Luo Qinglan behind. When he later summoned Grass and Hua Ruyu, both had reverted to flowers and were gravely weakened, so he prepared Fat Tiger to contact Lord Cat if he failed to return and then attempted to go back to the Reality Realm.

• Wei Duxing realized the red light threatened him as the City-Protecting Formation weakened and the merged planes began separating again.
• Chen Lin recognized that the red light had locked onto him, told Luo Qinglan to take everyone away, and entered the Nightmare Realm using the Fishing Rod.
• Chen Lin asked Grass to guard Luo Qinglan before leaving her with the Bronze Coffin and puppets, then waited in the Small Woods with Fat Tiger.
• Chen Lin summoned Grass and found her gravely weakened in the form of a blade of grass.
• Chen Lin summoned Hua Ruyu and found that she too had reverted to a severely weakened flower.
• Chen Lin instructed Fat Tiger to contact Lord Cat and relay his preparations if he did not summon him within three days, then tried to return to the Reality Realm.

After emerging in a strange plane where mana was suppressed, Chen Lin explored a swamp and an endless snowy region, finding no living creatures or signs of cultivation. He eventually discovered a small village and began to retreat, but a woodcutter spotted his hidden Spirit Boat and called it black.

• Chen Lin escaped the mud around the Bronze Coffin and found that the strange energy weakened his mana, spells, and Spirit Treasures, while his soul power and talent ability remained largely unaffected.
• Chen Lin crossed a boundary between a summer-like swamp and a vast snowy plain, tested the conditions, and found the region empty of life.
• Chen Lin placed Grass and Hua Ruyu in Jade Boxes to recover, then entered the Nightmare Realm by projection and returned with Fat Tiger.
• Chen Lin considered entering the Myriad Realms Alliance scenario through the Gray-White Giant Bird Egg but decided to explore the plane first.
• After ten days of searching the snow with Fat Tiger, Chen Lin spotted a village and watched it from his concealed Spirit Boat without seeing anyone emerge.
• A woodcutter carrying firewood approached the Spirit Boat, looked up at Chen Lin, and remarked that it was a black boat.

Chen Lin investigated a strange snowbound village and discovered that its inhabitants followed unfamiliar rules and possessed bizarre powers. After the woodcutter attacked him with a saber that bypassed his defenses, Chen Lin found that his Soul-Destroying Finger could harm the man and killed him with repeated strikes.

• Chen Lin watched the woodcutter return to a village, then followed his footprints to investigate where he had gathered firewood.
• Chen Lin found He Zhenshan of Mingxia Grotto and a middle-aged Emerald Grotto cultivator arguing over a stump, and discovered that both were Golden Core Cultivators.
• When Chen Lin rose into the air, the two cultivators stopped fighting, called him ruthless, and fled.
• The woodcutter appeared and repeatedly wounded Chen Lin with a saber that bypassed his armor, spells, talismans, and attacks.
• Chen Lin interrupted his attempted escape and struck the woodcutter with Soul-Destroying Finger attacks, weakening him until he collapsed and died.

After killing the Woodcutter, Chen Lin traveled across the snowy plain while trying to find a cultivator settlement and recover his strength. He turned back toward the swamp to consume the true soul flower, but a tree and a figure emerging from the snow appeared in his path.

• Chen Lin confirmed the Woodcutter was dead, took his woodcutting saber, and left the battlefield with Fat Tiger.
• Chen Lin followed the footprints of two cultivators, but they faded away across the snowy plain, leaving him unable to find their settlements.
• Chen Lin decided to return to the swamp and consume the true soul flower to strengthen his Soul-Destroying Finger, avoiding spells as he traveled.
• After a month of searching, Chen Lin and Fat Tiger found no settlements, mountains, or trees until Fat Tiger spotted a lone tree ahead.
• Chen Lin and Fat Tiger hid in the snow, then Chen Lin noticed a nearby snow mound move and a head emerge from it.

Chen Lin followed a cultivator carrying a tree stump to a hidden settlement and entered Three Kings Grotto after signing its Blood Pact. He found a guarded underground community with shops and usable mana, and planned to stay while he recovered and refined the true soul flower.

• Chen Lin watched a cultivator dig up a tree stump and followed him as he carried it away beneath a balloon-like flying device.
• Chen Lin and Fat Tiger tracked the balloon’s route for weeks until Chen Lin found high ground and sent Fat Tiger into the Nightmare Realm.
• Chen Lin introduced himself as a cultivator from Emerald Grotto and met He Wangshui, who required him to sign Three Kings Grotto’s Blood Pact.
• He Wangshui gave Chen Lin a token and led him through guarded passages into the underground settlement.
• Chen Lin explored the settlement, learned that mana could be used there, and headed for an inn to recover and refine the true soul flower.

Chen Lin learned about the Tianluo race, divine weapons, and the cultivators’ history and Heaven Concealing Technique while recovering in Three Kings Grotto. After Qu Qingzhou visited to ask about pills and a distant Immortal Cavern, Chen Lin seized on his mention of dangerous monsters in the southern swamp and pressed him for details.

• Chen Lin learned that divine weapons could harm the Tianluo race, that energy use drew their attacks, and that underground caves shielded cultivators from their perception.
• Chen Lin examined the Woodcutter’s true divine Firewood Saber, kept it as a safeguard, and continued treating his injuries.
• After a month, Chen Lin recovered and learned about the vast snow-covered region, the cultivators’ ancient origins, and the Heaven Concealing Technique’s benefits and drawbacks.
• Chen Lin decided not to practice the Heaven Concealing Technique because he still hoped to return to the normal Cultivation World.
• Qu Qingzhou visited Chen Lin to ask for pills, then asked about the Immortal Cavern in the southern swamp.
• When Qu Qingzhou said people who entered the swamp never returned because of powerful monsters, Chen Lin asked what kind of monsters lived there.

Chen Lin recruited the dying Meng Hezhang to enter a Nightmare Realm scenario and learn how to leave it, helping him reach Foundation Establishment in exchange. He sent Meng Hezhang into the realm and waited outside for him to return with information.

• Qu Qingzhou explained that Meng Hezhang needed pills for a risky Foundation Establishment attempt, and Chen Lin offered help in exchange for a dangerous, secret task.
• Meng Hezhang signed a soul pact, took Chen Lin's Foundation Establishment Pill, and began his breakthrough.
• When Meng Hezhang developed an inner demon, Chen Lin used an Exorcism Pill and his own power to help him reach Foundation Establishment.
• Chen Lin taught Meng Hezhang a divine sense secret art and instructed him to find Xu Zihan in the Nightmare Realm, ask about the exit task, and keep a deciphered bone shard safe.
• Chen Lin sent Meng Hezhang into the Nightmare Realm, left a Crow Puppet to watch the room, and waited while studying Taixu Script.

After Meng Hezhang returned from the Nightmare Realm and described the cave’s exit rule, Chen Lin secured a courtyard residence and entered the realm himself to investigate. He found the meadow empty of large birds and crossed the boundary of a Level One Road Guide.

• Meng Hezhang woke after spending weeks trapped in a cave and told Chen Lin that a woman with trees growing from her body had explained how to leave by writing the number of large birds on a stone slab.
• Chen Lin used the Soul-Bewitching Technique to verify Meng Hezhang’s account, then retrieved the Bone Shard and Giant Egg and escorted him from the inn.
• Chen Lin traded a dharmic-treasure flying sword for a small courtyard residence after learning that spirit rice production in the Minor Spirit Realm had fallen and prices might rise.
• Chen Lin equipped the courtyard with formations and puppets, brought Fat Tiger out to guard him, and entered the Nightmare Realm.
