After collecting resources from his junior brothers and continuing his cultivation, Su Yu joined Fairy Gu and Ma Tianling on a trip to the Xuanhuang Ancient Land for a trial offering an Immortal Method.

• A ghost-masked figure told Sui Shenglian and the others to attack the ancient lands, citing the newly discovered immortal gold as their opportunity.

Su Yu entered the Heavenly Prodigy Trial Tournament to compete for the Thousand Waves Immortal Method, while the Azure Prison Immortal Hall launched a sudden assault on the Xuanhuang Ancient Land. The attack left the Ancient Land’s defenses under heavy pressure just as Su Yu began his first fight in the Xuanhuang Star Realm.

• Fairy Gu gave Su Yu intelligence on Hong Xianqing, and Su Yu suggested that an internal Shangqing Cave Mansion challenge could strip her of her status as Dao Maiden.

The Azure Prison Immortal Hall attacked the Xuanhuang Ancient Land to seize Purple Spirit Immortal Gold, but Xuantianzi sent it into the deepest void and the invaders were driven back. Su Yu recognized the gold as something left by the ancient Yuexian, and his Wutong Dao Body recovered its fragments before entering seclusion; Su Yu then continued the trial and Yellow Dragon immediately withdrew rather than fight him.

• Su Yu saw the Azure Prison Immortal Hall’s warships and defeated two prodigies in the Xuanhuang Star Realm while watching the battle outside.

• Su Yu sensed the gold carried the ancient Yuexian’s aura, defeated a Void Comprehension Stage prodigy who mistook him for He Xiu, and continued the trial as Yellow Dragon appeared.
• The Wutong Dao Body took Yuexian Mansion Immortal City into the lightning sea and sealed the gold fragments, then entered seclusion after the ordeal nearly shattered its main body.
• Yellow Dragon recognized Su Yu in the Xuanhuang Star Realm and withdrew rather than test his strength.

Su Yu defeated Dong Chu Jun in the Heavenly Prodigy Trial Tournament and secured his promise to deal with Hong Qingxian. Back in Yuexian Mansion Immortal City, Su Yu refined immortal qi from Purple Spirit Immortal Gold into his five Sword Bones, then began studying the Thousand Waves Immortal Method.

• Su Yu and Dong Chu Jun agreed to settle their requests through a fight, and Dong Chu Jun lost, promising to help remove Hong Qingxian from her position as Dao Maiden.
• Su Yu, Fairy Gu, and Ma Tianling received their rewards and returned to the True Martial Immortal Court, while Dong Chu Jun returned to Shangqing Cave Mansion.
• Su Yu returned to Yuexian Mansion Immortal City and found the Wutong Dao Body and the city badly damaged, then learned the Golden Armored Commanders knew nothing about the Purple Spirit Immortal Gold.
• Su Yu drew a strand of purple aura from the Purple Spirit Immortal Gold and spent nearly half a year refining it into his Sword Bone, realizing that immortal qi was required for a true Immortal Body Foundation.
• Over four years, Su Yu transformed all five Immortal Body Foundation Sword Bones, then considered whether completing his foundation would let him move the Purple Spirit Immortal Gold.
• Su Yu inherited the Thousand Waves Immortal Method and, after recovering from its vast information, identified it as a Thousand Waves Immortal Body Foundation.

After thirty years of seclusion, Su Yu fused the Thousand Waves Immortal Method with the Geng Metal Immortal Sword Art, advancing his cultivation and immortal body foundation. He returned to the Demon Burial Ground and learned that White Horse Temple had fallen into conflict and lost much of its territory.

• Su Yu's attempt to build the Thousand Waves Immortal Body Foundation failed until the Proficiency Panel revealed a way to blend it with his Geng Metal Immortal Sword Body.
• Su Yu used a Rank 7 Xuanhuang Pill to cultivate the fused Thousand Waves Geng Metal Immortal Sword Art while the Golden Armored Commanders watched over him for thirty years.

• Su Yu reached the fourth layer of the Void Comprehension Stage, transformed seven Sword Bones, and briefly lifted a piece of Purple Spirit Immortal Gold before leaving Yuexian Mansion Immortal City.
• Su Yu's Dao Body Puppet reached low-grade Rank 7, and Su Yu met the Heavenly Ruins Hall Master, who reported White Horse Temple's decline and said its current conflict was probably unrelated to Azure Prison Immortal Hall.

Su Yu planned to restore Vajra Temple by seizing White Horse Temple’s territory and Incense and Fire Prayer Power while the Azure Prison Immortal Hall remained in retreat. With the Great Buddha Temple agreeing to restrain rival Buddhist temples, Su Yu’s forces gathered and prepared to attack Baitu Buddha City.

• The Heavenly Ruins Hall Master reported that Lingyuan Temple, Wanling Temple, and Hundred Buddha Temple had driven White Horse Temple onto the defensive and recommended striking Baitu Buddha City.
• Su Yu chose to attack Baitu Buddha City, one of White Horse Temple’s five great Buddhist cities.

Su Yu captured Baitu Buddha City by forcing White-Brow Buddha to submit, then prepared to strike the White Horse Temple’s main temple and seize its foundation. As the White Horse Temple decided to retreat and defend its temple, Su Yu arrived at a snow mountain nearby.

• Su Yu infiltrated Baitu Buddha City, subdued White-Brow Buddha, and compelled the city’s leaders and defenders to pledge allegiance to the Vajra Temple.
• Su Yu questioned White-Brow Buddha about the White Horse Temple’s defenses and learned that First Buddha Son Bai Lai held the patriarch’s inheritance and likely the temple’s foundation.

• The White Horse Temple’s Abbot gathered the remaining Buddha Sons and elders after news of Baitu Buddha City’s fall spread, and they debated whether to defend or abandon their other cities.
• A young Buddha Master advised retreating to defend the White Horse Temple, and the assembly accepted his decision.
• Before the White Horse Temple could gather its forces, Su Yu appeared on a snow mountain more than a hundred miles from the temple.

Su Yu and the two Golden Armored Commanders captured Bai Lai Buddha Son and forced White Horse Temple’s leaders to join Vajra Temple. With White Horse Temple under his control, Su Yu considered how to counterattack the temples occupying its territory, and Wu Qingping proposed striking Hundred Buddha Temple first.

• Bai Lai Buddha Son inspected his master’s five legacy items, then was ambushed in his Cave Dwelling by Su Yu and the two Golden Armored Commanders and imprisoned in Yuexian Mansion Immortal City.
• Su Yu persuaded Bai Lai Buddha Son to join Vajra Temple in exchange for sparing White Horse Temple’s disciples, then took his treasures and placed restrictions on him.

• Bai Lai Buddha Son suggested attacking Lingyuan Temple first, while Wu Qingping proposed targeting Hundred Buddha Temple.

Su Yu chose to lead Vajra Temple’s forces against Hundred Buddha Temple at Baiyang Buddha City, aiming to reclaim White Horse Temple’s territory and confront its Heavenly Buddha. After learning that Vajra Temple had taken Baitu Buddha City, Hundred Buddha Temple’s ancestor began investigating Great Buddha Temple’s involvement and seeking allies, while Su Yu arrived at Baiyang Buddha City and prepared to search for the enemy.

• Wu Qingping urged Su Yu to attack Hundred Buddha Temple before it could prepare, and Su Yu ordered the forces to depart for Baiyang Buddha City.
• Su Yu kept the Demon-Subduing Vajra Pestle, returned the other Buddha artifacts, distributed prayer power to the Golden Armored seniors, and put away a mysterious token tied to Immeasurable Cicada Palace.

• Su Yu arrived at Baiyang Buddha City with Bai Lai Buddha Son, Baihe Buddha Master, Golden Wheel Buddha Master, and the two Golden Armored Commanders; five defending Buddhas submitted to him.
• Jin Lian reported that Hundred Buddha Temple’s Heavenly Buddha was still nearby and that its forces included at least twelve Integration Buddhas and perhaps fifty thousand people.
• Su Yu told the defenders to handle the other enemies while he and his allies dealt with the Heavenly Buddha, then sent his mind force beyond Baiyang Buddha City to search.

Su Yu led Vajra Temple and its allies in a surprise attack on Hundred Buddha Temple’s forces outside Baiyang Buddha City, while he captured and subdued Bai Le Heavenly Buddha inside Yuexian Mansion Immortal City. The chapter ended with Bai Le ordering Joy Buddha and the other Buddhas to retreat from White Horse Temple’s territory.

• After learning Vajra Temple had seized Baitu Buddha City, Hundred Buddha Temple formed an alliance with Lingyuan Temple and Wanling Temple, suspecting Great Buddha Temple backed Vajra Temple.

Su Yu reclaimed White Horse Temple’s territory, welcomed Dao Master Hong Yue back to the True Martial Immortal Court, and used resources from Yu Xiaohe and the others to continue cultivating. As he entered long seclusion, the Mystical Seed sprouted inside his weakened Wutong Dao Body, grew into a towering golden Spirit Plant, and swallowed his divided spirit.

• Su Yu halted the pursuit of Bai Le Heavenly Buddha’s fleeing forces and ordered Vajra Temple to reclaim White Horse Temple’s territory.

• Su Yu summoned Yu Xiaohe, Wu Heting, Li Haoyuan, Bai Zhi, and the others, who offered him resources while privately resenting their role in supplying him.
• Su Yu cultivated for twenty years, while the Mystical Seed sprouted inside the injured Wutong Dao Body and grew by consuming its power.
• After another twenty years, the golden Spirit Plant had grown to over two zhang tall, and it swallowed Su Yu’s divided spirit.

Su Yu’s Spirit Severing Dao Body took control of the Mystical Seed spirit plant, left Yuexian Mansion Immortal City, and began traveling as the Moon Willow Daoist. He slaughtered the Thunder Dragon Dynasty’s leaders before heading toward Cangzhou Domain, while his true body continued to grow stronger in seclusion.

• Su Yu spent ten years refining the Wutong Tree’s power until the Mystical Seed spirit plant replaced it, then transformed the plant into a golden-haired youth and exchanged contribution points for the Moon Willow Sword and two supreme-grade magical treasures.
• Su Yu left the immortal city and traveled to the Thunder Dragon Dynasty, where he sensed Lei Chen and Lei Changtian in the imperial palace.
• Su Yu ambushed and killed Lei Chen and Lei Changtian, plundered their treasures and the dynasty’s resources, and eliminated two more peak Void Comprehension Stage Dao Lords.
• Su Yu chose to head south toward Cangzhou Domain to settle old karma, while Jun Wuyi ordered an investigation into the killings and suspected the Azure Prison Immortal Hall might have returned.
• After more than sixty years of seclusion, Su Yu’s true body reached the sixth layer of the Void Comprehension Stage, and his alchemy, Talisman Arts, Puppet Arts, and formations advanced to the peak of the sixth rank.

After the True Martial Great Emperor vanished inside the dangerous Immortal Array Ruins, Su Yu left the Immortal Court, prepared to cultivate and gather resources in hiding, then traveled to the devastated Cangzhou Domain to investigate. He reached Canggu Immortal City and secretly spread his mind through the city, unsettling Fairy Fengling as she cultivated.

• Nan Zhanxian told Su Yu that the True Martial Great Emperor and two other powerful figures had disappeared inside the Cangzhou Domain's Immortal Array Ruins, so Su Yu took his guards to the South Pole Immortal Palace.
• Fairy Gu warned Su Yu that she feared the Azure Prison Immortal Hall might retaliate, prompting him to leave for the Buddhist Domain and plan to cultivate at Yuexian Mansion Immortal City.
• Ji Qianyu found Su Yu's Cave Dwelling empty and lost his chance to force Su Yu into service at the Immortal Demon Sea, while Jun Wuyi returned and began taking control of the True Martial Immortal Court.
• Su Yu's Spirit Severing Dao Body entered the ruined Cangzhou Domain, reached Canggu Immortal City, paid for a year-long residence, and rented a Rank 5 Cave Dwelling.
• Unable to find useful information, Su Yu used the Ksitigarbha Undying True Scripture to spread his mind through the city, making Fairy Fengling feel uneasy and leave her Cave Dwelling.

Su Yu discovered that Fairy Fengling had defected to the Azure Prison Immortal Hall and was helping seize control of Canggu Immortal City, while he watched the upheaval without intervening. Elsewhere, a Heavenly Roaming Merchant named Tianyou arrived at Vajra Temple and offered Su Yu a trade for two of five items, including a map fragment of the Ancient Immeasurable Cicada Palace Ruins.

• Fairy Fengling returned to her Cave Dwelling after finding no signs of trouble and strengthened its formations before cultivating.
• Five years later, Guo Fengzi told Su Yu that the Azure Prison Immortal Hall had attacked the Xuanhuang Ancient Land and assassinated its disciples and a Dao Lord.
• Su Yu spied on Fairy Fengling as she killed one Xuanhuang Ancient Land Dao Lord, forced two others to submit, and sent her six allies to seize Canggu Immortal City.
• Fairy Fengling planned to use the Azure Prison Immortal Hall to destroy the Xuanhuang Ancient Land gradually while preventing the Hall from growing too powerful before the Immortal World prodigies regained their strength.
• Tianyou arrived at Vajra Temple, recognized Su Yu beneath his Ksitigarbha Buddha Master identity, and offered him a choice of two items in exchange for a trade.
• Tianyou revealed that the first item was an Ancient Immeasurable Cicada Palace Ruins Fragment Map, which he offered in return for one future favor from Su Yu.

Su Yu traded three favors of action to obtain a fragment of the Azurewood Immortal Scripture and a black cooking pot, then used them to strengthen his Immortal Body Foundation and Qi Refining Pot. After decades of cultivation amid turmoil in the True Martial Immortal Court and Xuanhuang Ancient Land, he reached the eighth level of the Void Comprehension Stage and neared the Integration Stage.

• Su Yu chose the Azurewood Immortal Scripture fragment and the ancient demon's cooking pot from the Heavenly Roaming Daoist, trading three favors of action for them.
• Su Yu's true body fused the cooking pot fragment into the Qi Refining Pot, raising it to low-grade Dao artifact level and allowing it to produce mid-grade Rank 8 spirit liquid.
• The True Martial Immortal Court and Xuanhuang Ancient Land fell into internal conflict, while Shangqing Cave Mansion sent part of its Dao Army to attack the Xuanhuang Ancient Land.
• After decades of failed attempts, Su Yu's Azurewood Immortal Body Foundation merged with his Sword Bones and Dao Bone, revealing the Life Great Dao and forming a Life Great Dao mark.
• Su Yu tempered twenty-five Immortal Bones, advanced to the eighth level of the Void Comprehension Stage, and anticipated becoming an Integration Stage Dao Lord.

After emerging from seclusion, Su Yu learned that the cultivation world was destabilizing as the Xuanhuang Ancient Land collapsed and major powers prepared for upheaval. He had his Spirit Severing Dao Body join the Azure Prison Immortal Hall to access its intelligence, while Fairy Gu dismissed another warning from Ji Qianyu and Jun Wuyi.

• Su Yu reviewed his cultivation gains, found that the Qi Refining Pot had condensed spirit liquid with traces of Dao resonance, and returned it to his dantian to nurture.
• The Heavenly Ruins Hall Master reported that Wu Zhi had reached Rank 7 formation mastery, the Xuanhuang Ancient Land had fractured, and the True Martial Immortal Court remained divided.
• Su Yu decided to stay hidden and cultivate rather than interfere in the True Martial Immortal Court, then left Vajra Temple to visit Fairy Gu and trade spirit liquid for resources.
• Su Yu's Spirit Severing Dao Body, posing as Liu Changsheng, joined the Azure Prison Immortal Hall and entered its mission hall to inspect missions concerning the True Martial Immortal Court.
• Fairy Gu discarded another warning letter from Ji Qianyu and Jun Wuyi and told her attendant not to bring such letters to her again.

Su Yu returned to the Southern Pole Immortal Domain, offered Fairy Gu Rank 8 mid-grade spirit liquid, and visited the Earth Immortal Mansion, where he reunited with Fan Xiao. Meanwhile, the Lord of the South Pole prepared to risk another breakthrough, and Yellow Dragon's plan to seize the Earth Immortal Mansion put Su Yu in danger.

• Fairy Gu explained that Ji Qianyu and Jun Wuyi threatened the Southern Pole Immortal Domain to force Xiao Changlin to surrender and open the Immortal Court's treasure vault.
• Su Yu gave Fairy Gu Rank 8 mid-grade spirit liquid, which she brought to the injured Lord of the South Pole; he said he would attempt to break through to the Tribulation Crossing Stage after recovering.
• Su Yu returned to the Earth Immortal Mansion, rewarded two gatekeeping disciples with pills, and reunited with Fan Xiao, who told him about the sect's growth and Daoist Tianyu's progress.
• Yellow Dragon proposed seizing the Earth Immortal Mansion to draw out Su Yu and pressure the Southern Pole Immortal Domain to hand over Xiao Changlin.
• Ji Qianyu and Jun Wuyi ordered Yellow Dragon and his companions to take control of the Earth Immortal Mansion, forcing them to accept despite their concerns about Su Yu.

Su Yu returned to the Earth Immortal Mansion and faced eight immortal-realm prodigies who arrived claiming to search for a traitor. After effortlessly defeating Yellow Dragon and drawing the group into his supreme-grade Dao artifact, Su Yu learned they were seeking Grand Elder Xiao Changlin and the Immortal Court treasury; the chapter ended as he sensed his senior sister and the Grand Elder arriving.

• Ji Qianyu warned Jun Wuyi that the immortal-realm prodigies were growing ambitious, and Jun Wuyi ordered preparations to clean house.
• Su Yu told Dao Master Hong Yue, Daoist Tianyu, and Fan Xiao to hide the Earth Immortal Mansion until order returned, but eight visitors arrived before they could decide.
• Yu Xiaohe invoked the Little Immortal Lord's authority to demand that the Earth Immortal Mansion open its formation, then recognized Su Yu through a spatial vortex.
• Yellow Dragon attacked Su Yu and had his body and Primordial Spirit split by a single sword strike, then knelt and begged for his life.
• Su Yu brought Yellow Dragon and the other seven into his supreme-grade Dao artifact, where Yellow Dragon revealed Jun Wuyi's orders to find Grand Elder Xiao Changlin and open the Immortal Court treasury.
• Su Yu reflected on the strength of his Azurewood Immortal Scripture foundation, then sensed his senior sister and the Grand Elder approaching.

Su Yu rejected Xiao Changlin’s offer to contend for the Great Emperor’s throne after learning that the True Martial Great Emperor and other pillars of the cultivation world had left. He evacuated the Earth Immortal Mansion, then exploited the ensuing chaos to raid faction treasuries and accepted Azure Prison Immortal Hall bounties on the Long family as war erupted in the Southern Pole Immortal Domain.

• Xiao Changlin told Su Yu that the True Martial Great Emperor and others had likely left the cultivation world, then urged him to reclaim the Immortal Court and pursue the Great Emperor’s throne, but Su Yu refused.
• Fairy Gu gave Su Yu resources and explained the dangers facing the Nan clan, after which Su Yu led Fan Xiao, Daoist Tianyu, Dao Master Hong Yue, and the Earth Immortal Mansion away from the Northern Territory.
• More than a year later, Su Yu temporarily settled the Earth Immortal Mansion in Yuexian Mansion Immortal City and imprisoned Yellow Dragon, Yu Xiaohe, and the other Immortal World prodigies in the void.
• Su Yu’s Spirit Severing Dao Body looted Fairy Fengling’s treasury, left a message identifying Yellow Spirit Grotto-Heaven, and raided ten major faction treasuries each in the Xuanhuang Ancient Land and the True Martial Immortal Court over the next thirty years.
• After returning to the True Martial Immortal Court, Su Yu learned that the Long family remnants of the Black Dragon Imperial Court had attacked the Southern Pole Immortal Domain, accepted bounties on Long family members, and began gathering intelligence.

The former True Martial Great Emperor revealed that Tian Wudi was alive, nearing the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and agreed to bring him back to stabilize the Immortal Court. Meanwhile, Jun Wuyi grew more tyrannical, while Su Yu began raiding the Luotian Family as it joined the siege of Northern Extreme Immortal City.

• Jin Taishang refused Jun Wuyi's request to leave seclusion, and he and the former Great Emperor judged Jun Wuyi unfit to rule.

Su Yu raided the Luotian Family and then struck other factions supporting the Long family, forcing most of them to withdraw from the siege of the South Pole Immortal Palace. As the Long family received reinforcements and prepared to attack, Tian Wudi returned, claimed the Emperor’s succession, and charged into their camp to fight Long Tianxian; Su Yu watched in shock as he recognized his eldest senior brother.

• Su Yu devastated the Luotian Family’s ancestral grounds, emptied its treasury, and left before the Northern Extreme Immortal Army arrived to investigate.
• Commander Luotian returned home after learning of the raid, and Su Yu’s later attacks on the Cheng Family, Zhan Family, and other allied factions forced them to abandon the Long family and return to defend their own territories.
• The Long family received one hundred thousand immortal soldiers and Immortal Lord Hall disciples, who promised to help break the South Pole Immortal Palace’s formation within ten years.

• Tian Wudi appeared and overwhelmed Long Tianxian, then fought alongside the Lord of the South Pole as the South Pole Immortal Army attacked the Long family.
• Su Yu ambushed and killed three Long family Integration Stage Dao Lords, then struck Long Shixuan with a full-force sword attack while the Lord of the South Pole blocked his escape.
• Su Yu fled the battlefield, while Long Shixuan escaped and Ling Guang Heavenly Monarch was captured; the Lord of the South Pole’s forces defeated the Long family army.
• The Old Great Emperor and Jin Taishang returned with the heads of Long Tianxian and Long Shixuan, though fragments of Long Tianxian’s Primordial Spirit escaped.
• The Old Great Emperor endorsed Tian Wudi as the next Immortal Court ruler, and the Lord of the South Pole agreed to support him.
• Tian Wudi asked about Su Yu, and Fairy Gu said Su Yu had gone into seclusion after she told him to leave; Tian Wudi resolved to look after his little junior brother after taking the throne.

Tian Wudi killed Ling Guang Heavenly Monarch and joined the Lord of the South Pole on a march to the Immortal Court, while Su Yu returned to seclusion. After his Spirit Severing Dao Body formed the Life Dao Fruit and reached the third layer of Integration, Su Yu subdued an immortal-realm prodigy and advanced his Heavenly Immortal Body Refining Technique to the seventh layer, sensing an unexplained connection.

• Tian Wudi killed Ling Guang Heavenly Monarch, and the Lord of the South Pole led his forces toward the Immortal Court to help Tian Wudi take control.
• Su Yu collected the rewards for three bounty targets, returned to Yuexian Mansion Immortal City, and resumed cultivating his body and Spirit Severing Dao Body.

While he remained in seclusion, Tian Wudi seized control of the True Martial Immortal Court and became emperor.

• Su Yu sensed a faint connection to the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Stele and speculated that its eighteen divine chains might be tied to the Cangzhou Domain’s spirit arrays.
• Su Yu broke through to the seventh layer of the Heavenly Refining Divine Art and fused the fire-element battle halberd Dao artifact embryo into his body, gaining the ability to manifest it as a powerful battle halberd or Fire Phoenix Sky Bow.
• Su Yu continued cultivating in seclusion as news arrived that Tian Wudi had killed Jun Wuyi, defeated the Ji Clan and its allies, taken control of the True Martial Immortal Court, and ascended as Emperor Tian.
• After another sixty years of seclusion, Su Yu completed the ninth transformation of his Five Elements Dao Platform and began breaking through from the Void Comprehension Stage toward the Integration Stage Dao Lord realm.
