Chen Lin escaped Yeguang City by retreating into his fiefdom, then spent ten years stabilizing his cultivation before asking Qing Zhe to investigate whether the city was waiting to capture him. Qing Zhe warned that Marquis Jinguān could detect her and suggested either sending an unsuspecting cultivator to investigate or using the Light Gate scenario to leave without returning through Yeguang City.

• The woman failed to catch Chen Lin after he fled into the Nightmare Realm, and the Golden-Robed Man decided to identify his faction at a future True Realm exchange meeting.
• Chen Lin hid in his fiefdom, feared Yeguang City might be watching the Tribulation Platform, and secluded himself for ten years to stabilize his Mahayana cultivation.
• Chen Lin asked Long Han to invite Qing Zhe to his fiefdom, then requested that she investigate Yeguang City.
• Qing Zhe refused to investigate because Marquis Jinguān, Yeguang City's peak True-Realm lord, could discover her and expose Chen Lin's whereabouts.
• Qing Zhe proposed sending a semi-void cultivator to check the Tribulation Platform and revealed that a Soul Lamp belonging to one of her Light Gate explorers had remained lit for a century.
• Qing Zhe told Chen Lin to have Long Han contact her if he chose to enter the Light Gate scenario, leaving him to weigh that uncertain route against the suspected danger in Yeguang City.

Chen Lin entered the Soul Hive’s thirty-sixth samsara with his memories intact, but found himself growing up in a world without supernatural powers. At ten years old, he still had no clue what the Undying Soul Lotus wanted him to discover, and he continued preparing for danger in a hidden cave.

• Chen Lin realized the Undying Soul Lotus Petal had let him keep his memories in the Soul Hive and remain there after birth.
• Chen Lin grew up as a quiet boy in a world where supernatural powers could not be cultivated, and accepted the woman who raised him as his mother.
• Chen Lin collected several pieces of ore from Uncle Han and teased his mother about settling down with him before fleeing her fire poker.
• Chen Lin went to his concealed cave, built as a refuge because his mother had once been pursued by enemies.

Chen Lin married Xiaolian after a veiled woman arrived in the village and left him a lotus lantern, but he could not discover the lantern’s secret before she vanished through a hidden passage. After Xiaolian gave birth to Chen Fan, Mother Chen captured Alan, the top courtesan of Wuzhen Tower, and forced her on Chen Lin as a concubine.

• Chen Lin decided to consider leaving the village, but delayed when a wealthy, veiled woman moved into Uncle Han’s former house.
• Mother Chen bought Xiaolian and arranged her marriage to Chen Lin; during the wedding, Alan’s steward delivered a snow-white lotus lantern on the fifteenth day of the third month.
• Chen Lin searched Alan’s empty courtyard and learned from Mother Chen that a hidden passage connected it to the mountain; Mother Chen also identified Alan as Wuzhen Tower’s top courtesan.
• Mother Chen forced Chen Lin to take pills and consummate his marriage with Xiaolian, who became pregnant and gave birth to a boy named Chen Fan.
• Mother Chen showed little interest in Chen Fan, captured Alan, and brought her back to become Chen Lin’s concubine before restarting the pill-fueled frenzy.

Chen Lin learned that Mother Chen was a Transcendent who had used the Soul Hive to test whether he was the person she sought, then sent him through thirty-six lifetimes that revealed the destiny river. As the Soul Hive expelled him, he learned Alan was in the Netherworld, entrusted their children to Uncle Han, and vanished, suspecting Mingyue Shuanghua stood behind the events.

• Chen Lin told Mother Chen he would stop having children and leave, but she revealed her Transcendent power and sent a light particle into his brow.
• Chen Lin experienced thirty-six lifetimes, awakened to the destiny river, and saw himself swimming upstream as a silver fish.
• As the Soul Hive began expelling him, Chen Lin found Alan with their children, Chen Fan and Chen Meng, and learned she was in the Netherworld while Xiaolian was the Undying True Lord.
• Chen Lin suspected Mingyue Shuanghua had orchestrated the Soul Hive events and rushed to entrust both children to Uncle Han.
• Chen Lin gave Uncle Han the Chen Family home and his possessions, left keepsakes for the children, and vanished from the Soul Hive.

After spending eighteen years in the Soul Hive, Chen Lin emerged with greater mastery of the Destiny Law but no Soul Hive and no certainty that Mingyue Shuanghua would continue helping him. He learned that a True Realm Convention tied to changes in the cage was approaching, then discovered that the Piggy Bank had returned the Golden Nightmare Coin he used to summon the Pig Monster.

• Chen Lin woke after eighteen years in the Soul Hive and found that all seventy holes had closed and cracks covered the Soul Hive.
• Chen Lin concluded that his mother was Mingyue Shuanghua and regretted losing her concern after she learned he was not the person she sought.
• Chen Lin learned from Long Han that Qing Zhe had gone missing and her Soul Lamp had dimmed, then sent him to ask Moyu Jiao for details.
• Chen Lin ordered Yang Wentai to contact Nanmen Lingyue and asked Leng Yue to monitor the upcoming True Realm Convention in Myriad Forms City, which was reportedly connected to changes in the cage.
• Chen Lin tried to summon the Pig Monster with a Golden Nightmare Coin, but the Piggy Bank returned the coin instead of consuming it.

Chen Lin investigated why the Piggy Bank had stopped working and suspected Mingyue Shuanghua had been manipulating events around him. He entered the Drift Bottle Scenario, used his Destiny Talent to screen bottles, and retrieved an Ordinary Nightmare Coin before Xu Wuye appeared.

• Chen Lin found that the Piggy Bank rejected Nightmare Coins and considered dormancy, an upgrade, the closure of Myriad Clans City, and Mingyue Shuanghua as possible causes.
• Chen Lin entered the Drift Bottle Scenario and discovered that no one was guarding the island.
• Chen Lin used his Level 4 Gold Road Guide to pass through the barrier and tested nearby Drifting Bottles with his Destiny Talent, suffering a severe backlash from one dangerous bottle.
• After recovering, Chen Lin identified a safe bottle, retrieved it, and found an Ordinary Nightmare Coin inside.
• Xu Wuye appeared and responded to Chen Lin's praise for her honesty.

Chen Lin encountered Xu Wuye on the island, where she opened a Drifting Bottle and found a Tricolor Stone, before the powerful Jade Demon True Lord arrived. As three more figures entered and a Golden Figure appeared in front of Chen Lin, his chances of escaping grew more urgent.

• Xu Wuye told Chen Lin that the Myriad Demon Heavens had sent its experts to Myriad Forms City for the True Realm Convention and began examining two Drifting Bottles.
• Chen Lin warned Xu Wuye about the dangerous bottle, but she used a Golden Nightmare Coin to choose the other one and found a Tricolor Stone inside.
• Jade Demon True Lord appeared, and Xu Wuye introduced Chen Lin as a Prison-Suppressing Envoy of the Crape Myrtle Palace.
• Jade Demon True Lord considered the bottle lodged in the rocks but did not pick it up before three unknown figures appeared on the island.
• A powerful aura locked onto Chen Lin, and a Golden Figure flashed in front of him.

Chen Lin encountered Marquis Jinguān in a Semi-Color Scenario and learned that the city lord posed no threat to him, though he remained committed to caution. The Jade Demon True Lord claimed a Drifting Bottle, which produced Baby Face and began asking him questions, leaving everyone waiting for his answer.

• Marquis Jinguān recognized Chen Lin as Hongming Ancestor’s companion, then treated him casually and turned his attention to the Drifting Bottle.
• Marquis Jinguān identified the location as a Semi-Color Scenario and urged the Jade Demon True Lord to decide whether to take the bottle.
• The Jade Demon True Lord caught the bottle before it drifted away, bound it to himself, and pulled out its stopper.
• Baby Face appeared from the bottle and announced a grand prize for answering one of three questions.
• Baby Face asked the Jade Demon True Lord her name, while Chen Lin and Xu Wuye watched without revealing that Chen Lin had heard the same question before.

Baby Face punished Jade Demon True Lord for failing her questions, turning him into a statue and taking his treasure. Chen Lin and Xu Wuye escaped the scenario, and Chen Lin fled Yeguang City to avoid trouble.

• Jade Demon True Lord guessed that Baby Face was thirty thousand years old, angering her, and she asked him how many flowers grew on Yuzi Mountain.
• Jade Demon True Lord attacked Baby Face with the Triangular Treasure, but she stopped time and turned him into a tiny statue.
• Baby Face took Jade Demon True Lord and his treasure, then vanished into the Drifting Bottle.
• Chen Lin and Xu Wuye used their tokens to leave the scenario after time resumed.
• Chen Lin returned to Reality Realm, fled millions of miles from Yeguang City, left Xu Wuye a message, and entered his Fiefdom.

Chen Lin learned that Xu Wuye was confined after four True-Realm Experts disappeared in a Nightmare Realm scenario, and that the Cage Array would change formations within two thousand years, creating a chance to breach it. After warning Fairy Yaochi about the Imperial Decree, he traveled to Divine Fire City, found that Zhu Qingyan had become a Void Realm elder, and waited for her to meet him.

• Chen Lin asked Leng Yue about Myriad Forms City and Xu Wuye, then waited for news while fearing that survivors of Marquis Jinguān's group might expose his and Xu Wuye's involvement in the Drift Bottle Scenario.
• Fairy Yaochi told Chen Lin that Xu Wuye was confined for her protection because four True-Realm Experts had entered a Nightmare Realm scenario and none had returned.
• Fairy Yaochi explained that the Cage Array would alternate formations within two thousand years, weakening its seal and prompting the Major Factions to send specially suited vanguards toward the Outer World.
• Chen Lin warned Fairy Yaochi to pass along a mysterious expert's warning that the cage must not be opened without the Imperial Decree, then learned that Hongming Ancestor had arrived in Myriad Forms City and was looking after Leng Yue.
• Chen Lin left for Eastern Flame Mountain, reached Divine Fire City, and learned that Zhu Qingyan was now a Void Realm elder of the Qinghuo Tribe.
• Chen Lin contacted Zhu Qingyan with her Transmission Bead, and she replied that she would come to Divine Fire City to meet him.

Chen Lin reunited with Zhu Qingyan and arranged to use the Divine Fire Clan’s celestial flames to ignite his fire seed. After more than a year of preparation, he reached Flame Mountain with Zhu Qingyan and faced the clan’s formidable totem, Fire God Futian.

• Chen Lin told Zhu Qingyan his name and asked to use the Divine Fire Clan’s fire, and she agreed to reserve him a usage slot.
• Chen Lin spent more than a year preparing before returning to Divine Fire City and contacting Zhu Qingyan.
• Zhu Qingyan escorted Chen Lin toward Flame Mountain and gave him a protective talisman against its corrosive flames.
• Chen Lin saw the blazing mountain range and the palace guarded by a statue of Fire God Futian, then bowed respectfully after Zhu Qingyan warned him not to show disrespect.

Chen Lin entered the Divine Fire Clan’s Core Fire Source to temper his body and ignite his fire seed. After reaching greater mastery in body tempering and advancing his Fire Law, he stopped the flames and began planning how to time the fire seed’s ignition before his three-month stay ended.

• Zhu Qingyan brought Chen Lin to Flame Mountain, where he received permission to use a Class-Seven Divine Fire Chamber for three months.
• Chen Lin entered the chamber, activated its brazier, and discovered that the Core Earth Divine Fire could ignite his fire seed.
• Chen Lin spent just over two months tempering his body in the flames, advancing his Body Mark to greater mastery and his Fire Law toward greater mastery.
• Chen Lin turned off the flames, retrieved his fire seed, and began calculating when to ignite it so he would not waste its energy or miss the chamber’s automatic expulsion.

Chen Lin escaped the Divine Fire Clan after the old gatekeeper tried to recruit him, then traveled to Myriad Stars Lake to condense his Immortal Star Core using the Celestial Fire. His attempt to compress the star with Mysterious Stones fell short, so he began drawing in the Fire Seed’s origin essence.

• Chen Lin ignited the Fire Seed, awakening a reaction in the statue at Flame Mountain and prompting the old gatekeeper to offer him a place in the Divine Fire Clan.
• Chen Lin refused the offer by citing his position as a Domain Suppression Envoy and his bond with Bei Wumeng, the Hongming Ancestor, so the gatekeeper sent him outside the palace.
• Chen Lin used a single-use teleportation Array Disk to travel far from Flame Mountain and reached his prepared hiding place at Myriad Stars Lake.
• Chen Lin summoned Grass to guard his cave, then strengthened his Immortal Star with Mysterious Stones until it reached the point for Star Core Condensation.
• Chen Lin tried compressing the Immortal Star with Mysterious Stones, but they were insufficient, so he began absorbing the Celestial Fire Origin Essence.

Chen Lin advanced the Seven-Star Shining Sun Technique and attracted starlight across the Boundless Realm, then faced a powerful Black-Robed Man outside Myriad Stars Lake. He killed the attacker with his combined techniques and red halo before leaving with Grass and entering his fiefdom.

• Chen Lin used Fire Seed Origin Essence and energy from a Mysterious Stone to advance his technique, causing a star to appear and shed starlight that powerful cultivators across the Boundless Realm noticed.
• Chen Lin found that the remaining Celestial Fire had fused with his two Inner Stars, then traveled with Grass along the lakebed to avoid being followed.
• A fourth-tier Void Realm Black-Robed Man confronted Chen Lin, but Death Gaze weakened him before he protected himself with a Golden Ancient Talisman and took out a dangerous Severed Palm.
• Chen Lin empowered his broken saber with Celestial Fire and combined its attack with the Silence Technique, Death Gaze, Grass's ambush, and the Red-Haired Fine Needle to break the Black-Robed Man's defenses.
• The Black-Robed Man exploded his body and tried to escape through his nascent soul and split will spirit, but Chen Lin's red halo drew them in and annihilated them.
• Chen Lin gathered the Black-Robed Man's belongings, left the area with Grass, and entered his fiefdom.

Chen Lin worried that the Seven-Star Shining Sun technique could tempt him to devour cultivators and become a demon, but Grass's support steadied him. After examining the Black-Robed Man's spoils, he discovered a miniature portrait of a woman hidden in the man's necklace and reflected on how easily he could meet the same fate.

• Chen Lin told Grass that the Immortal Star's Star Ring had devoured the Black-Robed Man's origin essence, raising his fear that the Seven-Star Shining Sun technique could lead him to slaughter others for power.
• Grass vowed to become a demon alongside Chen Lin if he ever fell to wickedness, and her loyalty eased his worries.
• Chen Lin examined his spoils, confirmed that the Ancient Talisman was a powerful innate spirit treasure, and found that the cut Pitch-Black Palm was ruined and the Golden Shield was a Heaven Tier Precious Tool.
• Chen Lin opened the heart-shaped Pendant on the Gemstone Necklace and found a miniature statue of a young woman, whom he guessed had been the Black-Robed Man's loved one or daughter.
• Grass clung to Chen Lin in fear of losing him, and he promised her he would not die easily before continuing to examine his spoils and entering the Cultivation Chamber.

Chen Lin finished refining the Celestial Fire, retaining a small three-colored flame that strengthened his Inner Star Force. After learning that the True Realm Convention would begin in six months, he considered attending but wondered whether Hua Ruyu would be with the Hongming Ancestor.

• Chen Lin refined the Celestial Fire for a year, leaving only a small three-colored flame that he could summon at will and use to enhance his Inner Star Force.
• Chen Lin checked on his fiefdom and learned from Long Han and Yang Wentai that the Ocean Floor Ruins had no opening date, while Nanmen Lingyue would try to secure him a place and the Treasure Chest.
• Chen Lin questioned Leng Yue about why the Hongming Ancestor called herself his beloved and claimed they were childhood sweethearts; he warned Leng Yue not to trust her schemes or defy her.
• Leng Yue told Chen Lin that the True Realm Convention would begin in Myriad Forms City in six months, followed by a month-long trading convention with Dao lectures and free divine ability instruction.
• Chen Lin considered attending the convention but asked Leng Yue whether the Hundred Flowers Fairy was with the Hongming Ancestor.

Chen Lin bought the Cloak of Xikeli to disguise himself before attending the True Realm Convention and tested its aura-concealing power in Fairytale Town. He confirmed it could fool a powerful void realm tourist, then turned the encounter into a paying customer for Anna's Fairytale Cottage.

• Chen Lin learned that Baihua's main body had gone to the Lower Primal Domain, likely to find and devour her escaped spiritual body, but he decided to proceed with his plans for Myriad Forms City.
• Chen Lin exchanged his last Treasure Vault Exchange Voucher for the Cloak of Xikeli and found that it concealed his aura, though its invisibility drained purple soul source and failed if he moved.
• Chen Lin visited Fairytale Town, where Grass confirmed the cloak hid his aura and body from her perception, and told him Lord Xila was usually at the Grand Theater.
• Chen Lin learned that Xu Wuye had not returned to the Fairytale Cottage and that a void realm elder was managing it in her absence.
• Chen Lin tested the cloak on Yiming, a powerful void realm tourist, who could neither sense him nor see him while it was active.
• Chen Lin introduced himself as the successor to Lord Anna's Fairytale Cottage, welcomed Yiming to Rainbow Castle, and collected fifty Golden Nightmare Coins for a story scenario.

Chen Lin learned that his damaged invisibility cloak could still conceal him from true-realm experts, then approached Zhang Dayou to discuss cooking. Zhang Dayou mistook the conversation for a challenge and forced Chen Lin into a high-stakes culinary contest.

• Chen Lin sought a local resident to test his cloak, but Lord Xila recognized it as Invisible Master Xikeli's cloak and explained that, despite its damage, it could block a High-Rank War General's probing.
• Chen Lin realized the cloak could help him attend the True Realm Convention in disguise, then spent a Golden Nightmare Coin to free the puppet Jiajiaqi.
• Chen Lin met Zhang Dayou, the Golden Head Chef of the Nine-Nine Restaurant, and asked to exchange culinary pointers.
• Zhang Dayou used a Gold Arena Token to challenge Chen Lin to a cooking contest, with the loser bound to serve the winner for ten thousand years.
• Chen Lin learned he had ten breaths to refuse by spending ten thousand merit, and that losing could cost him fifty thousand merit or his Viscount Exemption Privilege.

Chen Lin accepted Zhang Dayou’s cooking competition rather than surrendering merit points or agreeing to become his servant. While preparing an enhanced Soul Steamed Bun, he used his Destiny River talent to force a path past a node with no continuation and leaped into the unknown.

• Chen Lin agreed to compete against Zhang Dayou, risking servitude for ten thousand years if he lost.
• Zhang Dayou began cooking with an assistant while Chen Lin chose to make a fresh Soul Steamed Bun.
• Chen Lin gathered rare seafood and high-grade ingredients, then used his Destiny River to predict whether his improved recipe could succeed.
• Chen Lin found that the destiny line ended at a node, meaning his plan had no normal path to success.
• Chen Lin decided to test his talent despite the danger and leaped past the node.

Chen Lin escaped the Destiny River’s pathless node only to be hooked by a mysterious fisherman, but he cut the line and returned safely. His correction of the Soul Steamed Bun’s preparation succeeded, though he feared the force that had tried to pull him back up might target him again.

• Chen Lin leaped beyond a node with no connecting destiny line, rose out of the Destiny River, and was caught on a multicolored fishing line.
• Chen Lin used Death Gaze twice and a Blade of Destiny to sever the line, then plunged back into his Destiny River.
• At Yesterday Manor, Thirteenth Sister’s catch escaped, and Eleventh Brother stopped Fifth Brother from trying to recapture Chen Lin, revealing that Chen Lin was his friend from the Nightmare Realm.
• Eleventh Brother gave Thirteenth Sister a Yunming Flower before leaving, and she and Fifth Brother returned to Mountain Manor.
• Chen Lin woke in Fairytale Town, confirmed that his correction of the Soul Steamed Bun’s preparation had succeeded, and resumed making buns after Zhang Dayou taunted him.

Chen Lin won a cooking competition against Zhang Dayou, triggering a Master-Servant Contract, but Zhang Dayou sought exemption from the penalty. After Lord Xila advised him to accept Zhang Dayou’s offer, Chen Lin agreed to spare him in exchange for his wealth and a promise not to retaliate.

• Chen Lin and Zhang Dayou presented their dishes on the Competition Token’s Tasting Stages, and the judges declared Chen Lin the winner.
• The competition began establishing a Master-Servant Contract between Chen Lin and Zhang Dayou, but Zhang Dayou’s Contract Cancellation Document failed to dissolve it.
• Zhang Dayou used an Amnesty Token to request exemption from the penalty, offering all his wealth and swearing never to retaliate against Chen Lin.
• Lord Xila advised Chen Lin to accept the offer to avoid antagonizing the owner of the Nine-Nine Restaurant, and Chen Lin agreed.

Chen Lin returned to his fiefdom after defeating Zhang Dayou, then tested his destiny talent and found no obvious damage or mark. He discovered that his prize in the Peerage Space was only a Golden Book Page, while the danger surrounding the destiny river remained unexplained.

• Zhang Dayou vanished after conceding, and the Competition Token delivered his possessions and alluring subordinate to Chen Lin's Peerage Space.
• Chen Lin thanked Lord Xila with two Soul Steamed Buns and gave Bluwa another bun in hopes of gaining her support.
• Chen Lin tested his destiny talent with ordinary Soul Steamed Buns, crossed a node, and noticed no change in his ability, though an opposite-growing scale briefly flashed unnoticed.
• Chen Lin cautiously approached the dangerous node tied to the improved buns, then withdrew without crossing it and reflected that his fish form had grown more resilient.
• Chen Lin searched himself for signs of a mark, found none, and inspected his Peerage Space, where he found only a Golden Book Page.

Chen Lin examined the spoils transferred from Zhang Dayou and discovered several valuable treasures, including a restaurant stake, a golden cooking utensil, and an invitation. He found a possible path to improve his Soul Steamed Bun and ended the chapter preparing to master the cloak.

• Chen Lin used the Golden Book Page to retrieve proof of Zhang Dayou's ten-percent stake in the Nine-Nine Restaurant and learned that the Nightmare Law Controller had transferred the contractual rights to him.
• Chen Lin tested the Hunyuan Golden Spoon in his Destiny River and saw a Destiny Line leading to a Node surrounded by countless lines, though crossing it risked a backlash.
• Chen Lin collected 280 Golden Nightmare Coins and an invitation to White Moonlight's Lantern Appreciation Banquet, which offered a reward for completing a Riddle Quest.
• Chen Lin summoned Zhang Dayou's lifelike Puppet, Wushuang, but learned that her memories of the restaurant and her former master had been erased.
• Chen Lin stored the remaining ingredients and miscellaneous items, watched the Golden Book Page disappear, and began familiarizing himself with the cloak.

Chen Lin discovered that his improved Soul Steamed Buns had reached six-star quality, then traveled under a separate identity to Myriad Forms City for the True Realm Convention. After benefiting from the experts’ lectures, he entered the intermediate auction venue, where a burly cultivator greeted him as Fellow Daoist Lin Xi.

• Chen Lin ate all four improved Soul Steamed Buns, entering profound states of insight that greatly advanced his cultivation, artistic conceptions, and laws.
• After three months of seclusion, Chen Lin concluded the buns had surpassed five-star quality and prepared to leave before the True Realm Convention began.
• Chen Lin tested his cloak, changed his appearance, and traveled to crowded Myriad Forms City, where he traded for resources under a new identity.
• True Lord Wuming, Yue Tongtian, and other True Realm experts gave lectures that helped Chen Lin deepen his understanding of cultivation, body tempering, spells, and laws.
• After the convention’s lectures ended, Chen Lin chose the intermediate auction venue to seek treasures that could help him advance to the Void Realm.
• A burly man approached Chen Lin at the venue entrance, called him Fellow Daoist Lin Xi, and suggested they avoid bidding against each other.

Chen Lin, using the identity Lin Xi, unexpectedly saw White Dove at the auction but chose not to reveal who he was. White Dove recognized Chen Lin in a portrait and resolved to avoid him, while her senior sister warned her that he was connected to the powerful Hongming Ancestor.

• Chen Lin introduced himself to Xiao Shan, then recognized White Dove among the True Rainbow Sect cultivators and decided not to approach her.
• Chen Lin and Xiao Shan entered the auction hall and took adjacent booths near the front, while White Dove's group sat ahead of them.
• Xiao Shan teased Chen Lin about White Dove, and Chen Lin said he planned to focus on bidding for treasures and reaching the Void Realm.
• White Dove told her senior sister that she would refuse Yue Zonglin and enter seclusion after winning the Yuming Incense.
• White Dove's senior sister showed her a portrait of Chen Lin, and White Dove's reaction confirmed that she knew him.
• White Dove's senior sister warned her not to get involved with Chen Lin because he was the Hongming Ancestor's companion, and White Dove promised to stay away.
