After destroying the Long Family, Chen Lin took Shang Xuelian and the other women into the Spirit Demon Sea Domain to find the Hundred Flowers Fairy. He learned that the Bluestone Street Scenario remained accessible but had lost its Southern Star Realm node, then examined the Ancestral Dragon Token and Long Jianjiu’s scale armor before reuniting with the Hundred Flowers Fairy.

• News spread that Chen Lin had slain Long Jianjiu and the Long Family’s other Void Refinement Cultivators, driving the family’s survivors and Baihua Peak’s former opponents from Lingtian City.
• Shang Xuelian told Chen Lin that the Bluestone Street Scenario’s node still worked, though its Southern Star Realm node had vanished and dense Nightmare Qi made the scenario dangerous.
• Chen Lin followed Shang Xuelian to her master’s secluded site beneath the Demon Sea and considered how the scenario might help him find new nodes with a Silver Road Guide.
• Chen Lin examined the Ancestral Dragon Token, which could sense ancestral dragon qi and potentially locate a Gate of Reality leading to the Upper Primal Domain.
• Chen Lin studied Long Jianjiu’s scale armor and suspected its scale was a true dragon’s life-bound object, but he could not use the armor without draconic bloodline power or reforging.
• The Hundred Flowers Fairy arrived with Shang Xuelian, reunited with her disciples, and thanked Chen Lin for rescuing them.

Chen Lin reunited with Hundred Flowers Fairy and learned that the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm was connected to the Immortal Abode and likely contained the Gate of Reality. Their Bone Shards appeared to be keys to the realm, but Chen Lin warned that entering the Upper Primal Domain without true origin could mean certain death, leaving Hundred Flowers Fairy troubled.

• Chen Lin reunited with Hundred Flowers Fairy, discussed their separation from Luo Qinglan, and learned that Baihua still intended to reclaim her original body.
• Chen Lin brought Hundred Flowers Fairy and her disciples to a newly enlarged island, where they began preparing a cultivation ground.
• Hundred Flowers Fairy revealed maps of the secret realm and confirmed that the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm was connected to the Immortal Abode, likely containing the Gate of Reality.
• Chen Lin and Hundred Flowers Fairy compared their Triangular Bone Shards and found that seven shards appeared necessary to complete the design on the map.
• Chen Lin told Hundred Flowers Fairy that Lower Realm cultivators needed true origin or a true origin trait to survive in the Upper Primal Domain, and she questioned whether they could enter at all.

Chen Lin and Hundred Flowers Fairy discovered that the bamboo scroll about the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm also contained the Dragon Controlling Art, which Chen Lin believed he could use to absorb ancestral dragon qi and strengthen his body. While Hundred Flowers Fairy cultivated and awaited the secret realm, Chen Lin mastered the art and began preparing an expedition into the Nightmare Realm.

• Chen Lin read Hundred Flowers Fairy's bamboo scroll and learned that the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm required a complete Connecting Heaven Token and held a treasure whose aura was dangerous to weaker cultivators.
• The Ancestral Dragon Token resonated with the scroll, revealing the Dragon Controlling Art; Chen Lin memorized it, while Hundred Flowers Fairy noted that they lacked the bloodline and ancestral dragon qi needed to cultivate it.
• Chen Lin gave Hundred Flowers Fairy soul-restoring pills and an artifact, then shared information about the Nightmare Realm Grand Projection and let her use the Heavenly Mechanism House.
• During the following months, Hundred Flowers Fairy entered secluded cultivation while Chen Lin studied the Dragon Controlling Art and realized his innate power could let him absorb ancestral dragon qi.
• Chen Lin ordered Shang Xuelian and the other disciples to recruit willing elderly cultivators to explore the Nightmare Realm, and urged Shang Xuelian to reach Spirit Transformation Perfection and advance to Void Refinement.

Chen Lin finished refining the ancestral dragon qi in the Dragon Controlling Art, strengthening his body but failing to condense a body mark, then reviewed his cultivation plans and the status of his companions. He learned that Yang Zhengmao had returned from the Silver Fruit Core scenario, though its orchard appeared to offer little useful information.

• Chen Lin spent three years refining all the ancestral dragon qi from the bamboo scroll, greatly increasing his physical strength but failing to form a body mark.
• Chen Lin considered his next steps, including searching for the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm's bone shards and continuing to explore the Nightmare Realm; he also checked on Grass and the Blind Girl's flower.
• Han Shenliu told Chen Lin that Yang Zhengmao had returned after solving the Silver Fruit Core scenario.
• Yang Zhengmao reported that the scenario was an orchard surrounded by barriers, where he could leave only after clearing all the weeds and a Big Black Dog guarded the gate.
• Chen Lin frowned as Yang Zhengmao's account suggested the orchard had no one he could communicate with and little value for his investigations.

After ten years of cultivation, Chen Lin welcomed the recovered Hundred Flowers Fairy, who set out to seek Connecting Heaven Token Fragments and treasures that could withstand the Upper Primal Domain. Chen Lin entered the Bluestone Street Scenario to investigate its changing nightmare qi and vanished nodes, then tested the Road Guide Barrier with his innate thunder power.

• Chen Lin rewarded Yang Zhengmao, and an elderly cultivator advanced to the Golden Core Realm, inspiring other elderly cultivators to explore the Nightmare Realm.
• Chen Lin spent ten years practicing his Transformation Technique, Soul-Destroying Finger, soul arts, and Dao arts.
• The Hundred Flowers Fairy recovered from her soul damage and told Chen Lin she planned to search for Connecting Heaven Token Fragments and treasures resistant to the Upper Primal Domain's laws.
• Chen Lin entered the Bluestone Street Scenario through a seabed node and confirmed that its nightmare qi had grown denser while the Pass Token still allowed him to leave.
• Chen Lin found that the node to the Tianxuan Realm had vanished and that the plane barrier had strengthened, then searched the accessible area for spatial anomalies without finding any.
• Before leaving, Chen Lin returned to the Road Guide Barrier and pressed it with his innate thunder power.

Chen Lin broke through a Road Guide Barrier into the Silver District, where he killed a Silver-Armored General and discovered that his Seven-Color Disc could destroy powerful enemies. After exploring the district and opening a hidden space node with the Void-Breaking Spear, he returned to the Black Iron District and entered the Spirit Demon Realm.

• Chen Lin used his innate thunder power to pass through the Road Guide Barrier into the Silver District.
• Chen Lin killed the Silver-Armored General with the Seven-Color Disc and eliminated his soldiers with Soul-Destroying Finger strikes, then collected a Silver Token.
• Chen Lin explored Bluestone Street, decided not to cross another barrier after his fate screen showed no prediction, and suspected that forcing his way through had provoked the General's attack.
• Chen Lin searched the Silver District with the Snow-White Single Horn, found a hidden space node, and opened it with the Void-Breaking Spear after the Realm-Breaking Talisman failed.
• Chen Lin returned to the Black Iron District, opened the node leading to the Spirit Demon Realm, and darted inside.

Chen Lin evaluated Zuo Yunliang’s strength and investigated his ties to the Azure Demon Sect and the Six Desires Demon Skill. Worried about the island’s defenses while he was away, Chen Lin decided to make the powerful beast in his Spirit Beast Bracelet cooperate as his spirit pet.

• Chen Lin questioned Shang Xuelian about her cultivation and asked her to bring him an explorer with unusually high combat strength.
• Zuo Yunliang demonstrated his attack, and Chen Lin caught his Narrow Saber and asked where he had obtained it.
• Zuo Yunliang revealed that he had been expelled from the Azure Demon Sect and practiced the Six Desires Demon Skill, which he found alongside the saber in a sect secret realm.
• Chen Lin learned that Zuo Yunliang’s talent could enhance his own attacks and told Shang Xuelian to keep everyone within the Island-Protecting Great Array while he was away.
• Chen Lin released the strange beast from the Spirit Beast Bracelet, subdued it with lightning and vines, and offered it a choice between becoming his spirit pet or being killed for its materials.

Chen Lin subdued Holy Horn Great King and tested whether others could enter the Silver District through the passage, but two cultivators failed to return from the node. After more than half a year of stalled preparations for the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm, Shang Xuelian reported that someone had emerged from the Salted Fish Scenario.

• Chen Lin planted a Beast Seal in Holy Horn Great King, brought him to Nameless Island, and assigned him to guard it under Shang Xuelian's direction.
• Chen Lin sent Zuo Yunliang into the Silver District, where Zuo Yunliang killed the Silver-Armored General and his soldiers with the help of a rule-level Soul Treasure.
• Chen Lin gave Zuo Yunliang a Silver Token, imposed a mark that would seal his divine soul if he failed to return within a year, and sent him through the hidden node to investigate.
• Zuo Yunliang and a second cultivator both failed to return, leading Chen Lin to suspect that the passage opened into extreme danger or void turbulence.
• Hundred Flowers Fairy and Yang Qianxing found no Connecting Heaven Token fragments or means of resisting the Upper Primal Domain's laws, while Chen Lin continued his secluded cultivation.
• Shang Xuelian reported that someone had come out of the Salted Fish Scenario.

Chen Lin learned that the Salted Fish Scenario had changed and that a Guardian's death could make its protected scenario disappear, raising fears that Niuniu was in danger. Suspecting Xiaoyuer had used Shen Jinyuan to send a hidden message, Chen Lin sent Shen back with offerings to learn more.

• Shen Jinyuan told Chen Lin that he had entered a dim space filled with ponds and dried fish, where a Fish-Headed Monster demanded he catch ten fish.
• Shen Jinyuan used the Soul Fishing art to complete the task, then reported that the Fish-Headed Monster had said a Guardian's death caused its scenario to disappear.
• Chen Lin gave Shen Jinyuan a Longevity Extending Pill and worried that Gourmet Island had vanished and Niuniu might have perished.
• Chen Lin suspected Xiaoyuer had deliberately revealed information because Niuniu needed help, and summoned Shen Jinyuan again.
• Chen Lin gave Shen Jinyuan the black object from the Gourmet Guardian and Origin Orbs to offer the Fish-Headed Monster, then watched him enter the Nightmare Realm by projection.

Chen Lin received a strand of straw from Niuniu through Shen Jinyuan and decided to stop exploring scenarios connected to her. After finding that the node leading to Zuo Yunliang was fading, he met Gu Xuanqing and Fairy Ice Snow to discuss the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm and its token fragments.

• Shen Jinyuan reported that the Fish-Headed Monster had accepted the black object but refused the Origin Orb, and he gave Chen Lin a strand of straw that had transformed from a fish.
• Chen Lin wove the straw into a talisman, rewarded Shen Jinyuan with pills, and told Shang Xuelian to stop exploring the Salted Fish and Jade Talisman Scenarios.
• Chen Lin failed to find Zuo Yunliang at the Bluestone Street Scenario's weakening node and concluded that the Nightmare Realm was gradually sealing its spatial loopholes.
• Gu Xuanqing visited Chen Lin, explained that a Gu clan member had rescued Chen Lin's injured subordinate, and gave him a matching Triangular Bone Shard.
• Gu Xuanqing invited Fairy Ice Snow, who arrived having recently reached the Dao Hearing Realm, and Chen Lin welcomed both visitors to the island to discuss the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm.

Chen Lin exchanged information with Fairy Ice Snow and Gu Xuanqing about the Upper Primal Domain, the Exterminating Sword, and the coming voidification tribulation. After revealing his Nightmare Realm experience, he learned that Fairy Ice Snow wanted Nightmare Coins and offered to lend her some.

• Chen Lin told Fairy Ice Snow and Gu Xuanqing that he wanted to enter the Upper Primal Domain, and Gu Xuanqing suggested the Connecting Heaven Token fragment might resist law erosion, though Fairy Ice Snow said this was only their conjecture.
• Fairy Ice Snow explained that beings in the Upper Primal Domain absorbed origin essence force before birth, and Chen Lin revealed he had met a powerful man from the Wangyue Realm who had killed hundreds of Dao Integration Practitioners.
• Chen Lin described the Exterminating Sword's destruction of the Hongming Immortal Domain and warned that another voidification great tribulation would arrive within five hundred years.
• Fairy Ice Snow grew interested in Chen Lin's Nightmare Realm experience and asked to borrow Nightmare Coins, and Chen Lin agreed to help.

Chen Lin arranged for Han Shenliu to investigate Gambling Fortune Lake after learning the Nightmare Realm scenario had changed. She returned almost immediately, having lost 1,100 Nightmare Coins after a black toad made her roll a die, leaving Chen Lin to wonder why it had asked her to manifest the Fishing Rod.

• Fairy Ice Snow asked Chen Lin for three thousand Nightmare Coins to buy a treasure, but he declined and learned she had earned her savings in the vanished Money Tree Scenario.
• Chen Lin agreed with Fairy Ice Snow and Gu Xuanqing to keep searching for Connecting Heaven Token Fragments, then urged Yang Qianxing and Hundred Flowers Fairy to find the remaining Triangular Bone Shards and sent Shang Xuelian to recheck the underwater Immortal Abode.
• Chen Lin considered entering Gambling Fortune Lake and White Cloud Pasture to investigate their changes, find out whether the Qi Luck Guardian was truly dead, and seek help for Grass from the Gorgeous Lady.
• Chen Lin asked Han Shenliu to investigate Gambling Fortune Lake, promising to help her reach the Spirit Transformation Realm; she entered with the Fishing Rod and Nightmare Coins.
• Han Shenliu returned quickly and told Chen Lin that a black toad had made her roll a die, and she had rolled one, losing 1,100 Nightmare Coins as punishment.
• Han Shenliu explained that the toad had first ordered her to manifest the Fishing Rod; Chen Lin recognized its resemblance to the Golden Toad but learned it had shown no reaction to the rod.

Chen Lin welcomed Blind Girl back to life, learned that she still wanted to stay with him, and discovered she came from the Upper Primal Domain and remembered Hongming Ancestor. Her memories suggested Hongming Ancestor was a woman resembling Hua Ruyu, leaving Chen Lin determined to escape the Lower Primal Domain but uncertain whether Hongming Ancestor’s enemy still threatened the Upper Primal Domain.

• Chen Lin reassured Han Shenliu after she lost eleven hundred Nightmare Coins and continued studying his Transformation Technique and Dao Arts.
• Blind Girl revived, told Chen Lin that her memories had returned in part, and chose to remain by his side.
• Blind Girl said she knew of the Upper Primal Domain and had come from its Void Realm, though most of her memories had faded.
• Blind Girl revealed that Hongming Ancestor was a woman who resembled Hua Ruyu and practiced Spirit-Demon Dual Cultivation, leading Chen Lin to suspect Hua Ruyu was Hongming Ancestor.
• Chen Lin concluded he had to leave the Lower Primal Domain and asked Blind Girl whether Hongming Ancestor’s enemy was still in the Upper Primal Domain.

Chen Lin learned more about the Upper Primal Domain, Blind Girl’s strength, and the Nightmare Realm rules that still connected them. As he entered the Bluestone Street Scenario with her, he discovered that most of his treasures and abilities could be suppressed in the Upper Primal Domain unless they possessed origin essence.

• Blind Girl told Chen Lin that Innate Treasures could grow in power and warned him to conceal the Thunder God Sword in the Upper Primal Domain.
• Chen Lin questioned Blind Girl about Hongming Ancestor and the Upper Primal Domain, then learned the Thunder God Sword could protect him from the Voidification Great Tribulation.
• Chen Lin tested Blind Girl and found she could fight at the Dao Inquiry Stage, while their Nightmare Realm connection remained in place but gave her some freedom to refuse his summons.
• Chen Lin entered the Bluestone Street Scenario with Blind Girl after their three-year agreement ended.
• Blind Girl warned Chen Lin that high-level law power would suppress treasures and abilities from the Lower Primal Domain unless they possessed origin essence.
• Blind Girl explained that only origin essence items and high-grade Spirit Treasures would remain effective, leaving Chen Lin concerned that nearly all his possessions would be weakened.

The Blind Girl warned Chen Lin that law power in the Upper Primal Domain would erode his abilities, cultivation, body, and soul unless each gained protection, though innate power might shield him. After Zuo Yunliang rushed through a Hidden Node pursued by a Vertical-Eyed Man, Chen Lin and the Blind Girl fought to save him, but the enemy unleashed a terrifying aura.

• The Blind Girl explained that only aspects with true origin traits or sufficient rule force could resist the Upper Primal Domain's law erosion, and she said innate power could withstand it.
• Chen Lin questioned the Blind Girl about her lost memories and origins, then opened a Hidden Node while searching for a path to the Upper Primal Domain.
• Zuo Yunliang rushed through the node pursued by a Vertical-Eyed Man, who seized him with a massive black claw.
• Chen Lin evaded the Vertical-Eyed Man's lethal attack while the Blind Girl's heart fire forced the enemy to defend himself.
• The Vertical-Eyed Man's flying sword threatened Zuo Yunliang, but Chen Lin and the Blind Girl disrupted it and struck the enemy with their attacks.
• The enraged Vertical-Eyed Man doubled in size and flooded the space with a terrifying aura.

Chen Lin and Blind Girl faced the Vertical-Eyed Man, whose pursuit of Zuo Yunliang ended when the Gold-Armored War General killed him. Back in the Spirit Demon Realm, Chen Lin learned how Zuo Yunliang survived and asked him about the Celestial Demon Realm.

• The Vertical-Eyed Man attacked Chen Lin with a powerful Dark Gold Ray, but Chen Lin countered with the Seven-Color Disc.
• The Vertical-Eyed Man teleported to Zuo Yunliang and smashed his head, then tried to escape when Chen Lin trapped him behind a barrier.
• The Gold-Armored War General appeared and killed the Vertical-Eyed Man with a single thrust, while Zuo Yunliang's head regenerated.
• Chen Lin took Blind Girl and Zuo Yunliang back to the Spirit Demon Realm, where he learned Zuo Yunliang had used the Flesh Rejuvenation Technique to revive himself.
• Zuo Yunliang explained that the technique required eighty-one cultivators' essence blood, and Chen Lin asked him about the Celestial Demon Realm.

Zuo Yunliang explained how he survived in the Celestial Demon Realm and obtained an inheritance from the Celestial Demon Tower. After learning that the tower matched the Holy Pagoda and might be connected to the Exterminating Sword, Chen Lin agreed to send the Blind Girl to investigate.

• Zuo Yunliang told Chen Lin that he had been captured at sea, enslaved by the One-Eyed Demon Lineage, and taken to the Celestial Demon Continent.
• Zuo Yunliang explained that his Demonic Saber activated a statue in the Celestial Demon Tower, where he and Mo Qingtong were trapped in illusory trials until Zuo Yunliang passed and received an inheritance.
• Zuo Yunliang said he escaped the city, found the hidden node, and hid nearby from Mo Qingtong's search while waiting for Chen Lin to open it.
• Chen Lin showed Zuo Yunliang an image of the Holy Pagoda, and Zuo Yunliang confirmed that it was identical to the Celestial Demon Tower.
• The Blind Girl offered to investigate the tower, and Chen Lin agreed after learning that the realm had one Great Vehicle Demonic Sage and many Dao Integration Devil Lords.

Chen Lin studied how the great heavens projection had made the Nightmare Realm more restrictive and planned to intensify exploration before starlight grass lost its usefulness. The chapter ended when Shang Xuelian returned with a new discovery in the Silver Fruit Core Scenario.

• Chen Lin confirmed the Blind Girl could still be summoned through the Hidden Node, then watched the node weaken and abandoned the idea of risking a fight for the Gold War General's storage bracelet.
• Chen Lin returned to Nameless Island with Zuo Yunliang, had him copy the demonic inheritance, and arranged treasures to help him pursue core formation.
• Zuo Yunliang reached core formation during the following year, while Chen Lin studied the Nightmare Realm's increasingly severe restrictions on items, cultivators, and projected abilities.
• Chen Lin concluded that true origin traits explained why his soul secret arts and innate power remained effective, and he decided to explore personally as scouting became harder.
• Chen Lin ordered Shang Xuelian to hire more elderly cultivators and intensify exploration, and she returned soon afterward with news of a discovery in the Silver Fruit Core Scenario.

Yang Zhengmao brought Chen Lin a Silver Fruit Core Scenario reward whose flesh carried a fluctuation resembling the White Tiger True Spirit, prompting Chen Lin to order further exploration. Yang Zhengmao later remained trapped inside the still-closed scenario, while Chen Lin's searches for the other Triangular Bone Shards and information about the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm came up empty.

• Yang Zhengmao told Chen Lin that after clearing the orchard weeds ten times, the talking dog rewarded him with a silver fruit he could bring out.
• Chen Lin examined the fruit, and Shang Xuelian identified its unusual fluctuation as resembling the White Tiger True Spirit.
• Chen Lin ordered another cultivator to repeat Yang Zhengmao's method, but the cultivator received no reward after ten rounds of weeding.
• Han Shenliu reported that Yang Zhengmao had been inside the scenario for over half a month and had likely run out of starlight grass, though the scenario remained closed.
• Chen Lin activated Transmission Talismans to contact his associates, but none had found the other Triangular Bone Shards or information about the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm.

Chen Lin activated a blank scroll in a Nightmare Realm hall, summoning Consort Yu and triggering a dangerous change in the scenario’s rules. After the Strength Scroll saved him from the resulting force, he decided to abandon the route for now and seek another way to reach the Upper Primal Domain.

• Chen Lin tested the hall’s blank scrolls with his abilities and discovered that his innate power made one glow and reveal a woman’s portrait.
• Consort Yu appeared, called Chen Lin the Great King, and warned him that the Grand General had grown too powerful for the Three Grandmasters to defeat.
• Chen Lin left the scenario, but a surge of rule force attacked him and consumed his Strength Scroll as it protected him.
• Chen Lin had Han Shenliu send an elderly cultivator into the scenario and learned that the changes affected only the person who triggered them.
• Chen Lin chose not to re-enter the scenario and began considering other routes to the Upper Primal Domain.

Chen Lin watched Yang Zhengmao return from the Silver Fruit Core Scenario with his cultivation raised to Nascent Soul, then learned that the scenario’s dog had taken the Silver Fruit from his Storage Ring and given it to Yang Zhengmao. After advising Yang Zhengmao to investigate possible dangers and keep the fruit core, Chen Lin entered the Nightmare Realm as a projection to explore the scenario himself.

• Yang Zhengmao underwent and easily passed a Nascent Soul tribulation, astonishing Chen Lin, Shang Xuelian, and Han Shenliu.
• Chen Lin discovered that the Silver Fruit had vanished from his Storage Ring and took Han Shenliu’s Silver Fruit Core to keep in a Storage Bracelet.
• Yang Zhengmao told Chen Lin that the dog in the scenario had given him a fruit after learning he had offered the first one to Chen Lin, and that eating it had raised his cultivation.
• Yang Zhengmao gave Chen Lin the core of the fruit he had eaten, and Chen Lin recognized it as the fruit that had disappeared from his Storage Ring.
• Chen Lin returned Yang Zhengmao’s core, warned him to check for hidden dangers from his breakthrough, and dismissed him, Shang Xuelian, and Han Shenliu.
• Chen Lin released the Scholar, examined the Silver Fruit Core, and entered the Nightmare Realm as a projection.

Chen Lin tried to unlock a Hidden Mission in the orchard by weeding, but clearing weeds a hundred times earned no reward. After discovering insects were killing a fruit tree, he removed them and received permission to pick a Premium Fruit, whose vital Fruit Core could be planted.

• Chen Lin inspected the orchard, avoided the powerful black dog, and spent time clearing weeds in hopes of triggering a Hidden Mission.
• A year later, Yang Qianxing and the others decided to open the Heaven-Connecting Secret Realm to more cultivators so they could search for the missing Triangular Bone Shards.
• After bringing his weeding count to a hundred, Chen Lin found that he had not completed a Hidden Mission and learned he could not pass the black dog.
• Chen Lin used his innate power to locate insects inside a diseased fruit tree and carefully killed them with innate thunder power.
• A voice awarded Chen Lin one Premium Fruit for completing the pest-removal Hidden Mission, and the black dog explained that its Fruit Core could be grown.

Chen Lin chose and retrieved an unusual golden-spotted fruit, then investigated its effects while worrying that he could no longer reach the Blind Girl through their Nightmare Realm connection. The chapter ended with Yang Qianxing arriving with a new Triangular Bone Shard and two concubines, whom Chen Lin took aside to introduce him to privately.

• Chen Lin used his Innate Thunderbolt to cut the stem of a golden-spotted fruit that he could not pluck by hand, then discovered it carried an unknown, overbearing emperor-like energy.
• Chen Lin examined Yang Zhengmao after he ate a fruit and found no abnormalities, but continued monitoring him before deciding whether to eat his own fruit.
• Chen Lin repeatedly failed to summon the Blind Girl and could no longer find her hidden node in the Bluestone Street Scenario.
• Shang Xuelian and the Hundred Flowers Fairy worried that Chen Lin's distress over the Blind Girl might cause an inner demon, but Chen Lin assured them his state of mind was sound.
• The Hundred Flowers Fairy told Chen Lin that Yang Qianxing had found another Triangular Bone Shard, and Yang Qianxing arrived with his new concubines, Qingling and Qinghuo.
• Chen Lin and Yang Qianxing went into a private chamber after Chen Lin and the Hundred Flowers Fairy welcomed the two women.

Yang Qianxing told Chen Lin that the Glazed Cup scenario might contain a passage to the Upper Primal Domain, while warning that its giver could be Thousand-Faced Fox. After Zuo Yunliang obtained a Divine Fruit by pruning orchard trees with Chen Lin’s Scissors, Chen Lin suspected that successful tending required genuine skill and summoned Yang Zhengmao to investigate.

• Yang Qianxing explained that the Demon God Sect’s sect master had sent his twin granddaughters with him in exchange for taking them to the Upper Primal Domain, and he no longer needed Chen Lin’s Bone Shard.
• Yang Qianxing reported that a courier in the Glazed Cup scenario had found a multicolored rift inside a well, and Chen Lin kept the painting so he could ask about it at the Carefree Assembly.
• Chen Lin warned Yang Qianxing that High Person Yunhai might be an incarnation of Thousand-Faced Fox, so Yang Qianxing agreed not to enter the scenario himself.
• Chen Lin and Yang Qianxing confirmed that their Triangular Bone Shards matched, then agreed with their allies not to reveal that the shards could resist the erosion of laws.
• Han Shenliu brought Zuo Yunliang to Chen Lin after he obtained a Divine Fruit by pruning every fruit tree with Chen Lin’s Scissors, which he strengthened using his talent ability.
• Chen Lin concluded that the orchard’s tending missions required skill, returned the fruit to Zuo Yunliang, and ordered Han Shenliu to fetch Yang Zhengmao.

Chen Lin watched Zuo Yunliang consume a powerful fruit that raised his cultivation and examined the secret art Yang Zhengmao had used to weed. He accepted the Divine Light of Annihilation, compensated Yang Zhengmao, and sent him away while Zuo Yunliang continued refining the fruit.

• Chen Lin persuaded Zuo Yunliang to eat the fruit, and Zuo Yunliang's cultivation, soul, and spiritual sense rapidly strengthened.
• Chen Lin questioned Yang Zhengmao about the soul secret art he had used while weeding, and Yang Zhengmao presented a Bamboo Scroll recording the Divine Light of Annihilation.
• Chen Lin learned the secret art required destructive soul origin essence and confirmed Yang Zhengmao had used it to clear the weeds.
• Yang Zhengmao offered Chen Lin the secret art, and Chen Lin accepted the Bamboo Scroll and gave him an Ending Hostility Pill and a Flying Spirit Treasure.
• Chen Lin ordered Yang Zhengmao to leave the island, and Yang Zhengmao bowed before departing.
