Shi Lan used six lottery draws to obtain powerful items, including the Myriad Transformations Holy Garment, then asked Wuxu about the Underworld Bureau and Yellow Springs. Wuxu recounted the Cloudreturn Sword Emperor’s dangerous journey beneath Yellow Springs, leaving Shi Lan aware that much about the Underworld Bureau remained unexplained.

• Shi Lan spent all her reputation points on six item draws and received the Myriad Transformations Holy Garment, Starsea Ladder, Hades Seal, and three other items.
• Shi Lan tested the Myriad Transformations Holy Garment and discovered it could transform her into another race and evade the Heavenly Dao’s surveillance.

After returning to the Heavenly Fire Immortal Dynasty, Qing Lan found a man waiting for her who was addressed as the Godson.

• Qing Lan used a damaged True Immortal command banner to seal the two Sovereigns inside a cage and fought them with immortal treasures.

• Shi Lan, who had lived as a Taboo Wordspirit Master in the Liuguang Realm for nearly ten years, realized that Wordspirit power depended on the realm’s Heavenly Dao and vanished outside it.
• Shi Lan continued deducing her martial path and pushed the Martial Scripture to its limit, gaining confidence she could kill an early Source Realm Supreme with an equal-rank Supreme artifact while losing nearly half her remaining lifespan.

Shi Lan attained the Dao, seized the Glazed Light Realm’s Heavenly Dao authority, and freed the immortal Zhen An from his endless life. She then returned to the Divine Martial Great World to ask Lingyun about the coming upheaval in Lingyang, learning that powerful factions were involved because they were seeking a path to survival.

• Shi Lan condensed a Dao Fruit and absorbed the Glazed Light Realm’s gift, but the awakened Heavenly Dao attacked her for reaching toward its source.

Shi Lan kept the Divine Martial crystal fragment secret, then helped Bai Yu pursue the Supreme Realm, where he absorbed so much source energy that something went wrong.

• Meng appeared before Shi Lan, explained that the worlds faced an unknowable calamity, and invited her to help prepare Lingyang as a refuge.
• Meng revealed that the World Source Crystal had shattered into four fragments and that the final fragment was believed to be somewhere in Divine Martial; Shi Lan concealed its location in the Divine Martial Otherworld.
• Meng said the Spirit Martial Hall would send disciples to Lingyang in three years, and Lingyun agreed that Shi Lan could lead them and bring her family and friends to their territory.
• Shi Lan returned to the Tianyan Sect and brought Bai Yu to Qiong Luo Realm to help him attain the Supreme Realm.
• Bai Yu formed a Dao Fruit, and Shi Lan poured Qiong Luo's source energy and her own Dao Fruit essence into a heavenly gift for him.
• Bai Yu absorbed the descending source energy until his body swelled, then called to Shi Lan in distress.

Shi Lan moved the Tianyan Sect’s main branch to the Liuguang Realm and began preparing to strengthen her weapons, while learning that Qing Lan had joined the Blood God Hall as its Divine Son. In Lingyang, the Boundless Sea had swallowed the Central Heaven Domain, and Shi Lan ended the chapter seeking a way to strengthen the Crimson Crow War Halberd with saint-spirit blood.

• Bai Yu absorbed too much of Shi Lan’s source power and fell into a deep sleep while refining it, so Shi Lan returned to the Tianyan Sect and planned to move its main branch to the Liuguang Realm.

• Shi Lan returned to the Liuguang Realm, left its Wordspirit Masters’ powers restricted, and established the Tianyan Sect’s residence at the Dome Ancient City while introducing them to immortal cultivation and the Martial Scripture.
• Shi Lan began forging the Crimson Crow War Halberd into an Imperial Weapon, but its weak foundation made it absorb materials too slowly, so she decided to strengthen it with saint-spirit blood.

Shi Lan forged the Crimson Crow War Halberd into an Emperor weapon and strengthened the Heavenly Derivation Sect’s martial arts collection in the Glazed Light Realm. In Lingyang, Ling Chu announced that he would evacuate the Human Race to Tianyuan, leaving Liu Yunzheng to guard those who remained, and vowed to reclaim Lingyang one day.

• Shi Lan used the Ancient God King's blood essence to strengthen the Crimson Crow War Halberd, which gained a Heavenly Dao imprint and entered the domain of Emperor weapons.

• Ling Chu knelt before Liu Yunzheng, promised to preserve Taishi's name, and vowed to take Lingyang back someday.

• Liu Yunzheng warned Ling Chu not to become Shi Lan's enemy, and Ling Chu said he would remember.
• Ling Chu told Liu Yunzheng he planned to leave Lingyang after the upheaval ended and said reinforcements from the Divine Martial Great World would help him escape.
• Shi Lan returned to the Spirit Martial Hall to finish shaping Samsara's body and asked Meng to purify the God King's blood essence.
• Meng purified the blood essence and identified fragments of Heaven's Dao origin, a strong Origin Continent aura, and a Mark of Heaven's Dao in its still-living source.
• Meng realized the creature came from Lingyang and remarked that the Mark of Heaven's Dao was already gone, despite Dongxuan's sacrifice to claim authority over Lingyang's Heaven's Dao.

Shi Lan learned that the Heavenly Dao imprint protected the ancient divine king, then used his blood essence to create a powerful body for Samsara. Samsara gained her first body, the Heavens Reincarnation System began unlinking and self-destructing, and she chose to cultivate immortal arts.

• Samsara opened her eyes, experienced having a body of her own, accepted a robe from Shi Lan, and said she wanted to cultivate immortal arts.

• Shi Lan arrived at the Lingyang Realm with Lingwu's disciples and disguised herself with the aura of an ancient god before telling them to enter the realm with her.

In Lingyang, she reunited with Chu Hanzhou, learned that the Imperial Court was preparing to evacuate some people to the Tianyuan Great World, and the Demon Emperor sensed the arrival of a divine-race Emperor.

• Shi Lan ignored warnings about Lingyang's Heavenly Dao and entered the realm, where her ancient god bloodline strengthened her instead of suppressing her.
