Chapter Summaries

Ye Qingxuan collected spirit vein sources from the Everlasting Cave Heaven, took its World Tree Seedling and hidden Tier 10 Spirit Vein Source, then escaped as the cave heaven began to collapse. The Dihuan Realm’s rules took over and revived the cave heaven, while the sect masters of Tian Sect, Yuxuan Sect, and Daoxuan Sect gathered at Everlasting Lake to investigate its connection to the vanished Everlasting Immortal Sect.

• Ye Qingxuan searched the Everlasting Cave Heaven and collected six Tier 9, eighteen Tier 8, and fifty-two Seventh-grade Spirit Vein Sources.

• Bei Mingzi, Feng Chudie, and Daoxuan gathered at Everlasting Lake, where Daoxuan asked whether the phenomenon and Space Tunnel were connected to the Everlasting Immortal Sect.

Bei Mingzi, Daoxuan, and Feng Chudie explored the revived Everlasting Cave Heaven and agreed to jointly manage its spirit veins as a medicinal garden. After his External Incarnation returned with Spirit Vein Sources and a World Tree Seedling, Ye Qingxuan strengthened Qingxuan Cave Heaven, set the seedling aside for safety, and began closed-door cultivation.

• Bei Mingzi, Daoxuan, and Feng Chudie found newly revived spirit veins in the Everlasting Cave Heaven but no traces of the old Everlasting Immortal Sect.

As Qingxuan Virtual Market drew cultivators from across the Dihuan Realm, the Zhu Family decided to open shops there while Zhu Chui Xiang sent Zhu Fu Yuan and his mother to reunite with Zhu Dafu. The market also let Liu Sandao and Li Damin reunite with descendants, bringing news of their children’s deaths and leaving both elders to face their grief.

• Cultivators across the Dihuan Realm traveled to Qingxuan Virtual Market as its reputation spread and more high-level cultivators visited.

• Li Yuanji proved to Li Damin that he was his grandson and explained that Li Chaoyang had died from injuries and Devil Qi acquired in the Azure Devil Realm; Li Damin accepted him and invited him to cultivate together.

Qingxuan Virtual Market grew as Ye Qingxuan’s Blessed Cultivators and their relatives traded and interacted, while Dihuan Realm and the Azure Devil Realm prepared their strongest experts for a final battle. Both sides began gathering Law Crystals and sending their Mahayana experts into seclusion, and the chapter ended with Ye Qingxiao promising Yu Xueqing that they would go home after their garrison mission.

• Li Bin begged Li Yuan and Mu Qingqing for cultivation resources, but Li Yuan refused and expelled him from his Blessed Land.

• Ye Qingxiao embraced Yu Xueqing at a Dihuan Realm Alliance branch and promised to take her home after their final hundred-year garrison mission.

After fifty years of closed-door cultivation, the Human Race’s Mahayana experts gathered to decide how to face the Azure Devil Race. The Lingxiao Temple Master proposed splitting the 118 experts who had grasped Great Dao Law True Intent into two groups so they could break into the Immortal Realm and help the Dihuan Realm ascend before the Azure Devil Realm.

• Ye Qingshuang returned to Qingxuan Cave Heaven, saw that Ye Qingxuan was in closed-door cultivation, and secluded herself in her own Cave Mansion.
• Over the years, the Qingxuan Virtual Market spread throughout the Nine Domains, circulating Ye Qingxuan’s Blessed Cultivator Three Paths and their Source Seeds among cultivators.
• Fifty years after the Human Race experts began cultivating with Law Crystals, they emerged and gathered at the Dihuan Realm Alliance Headquarters; Cen Zhe had already condensed a wisp of Gold Great Dao Law True Intent.
• Bei Zhenyu and Zhang Haoran urged the Human Race to launch a general offensive against the Azure Devil Race, but Cen Zhe warned that the Azure Devil Race had also been cultivating and could defend itself behind its Border Pass Great Wall.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master explained that the Azure Devil Realm was only about five years behind the Dihuan Realm in merging realms and proposed that the 118 breakthrough-ready experts split into two batches to guard the border and break into the Immortal Realm in turn.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master argued that their Immortal Realm power could break the Azure Devil Race’s defenses and help the Dihuan Realm ascend into the Great Thousand Realm first, allowing it to devour the Azure Devil Realm.

The Human Race agreed to continue cultivating until its experts could break through into the Immortal Realm, while Emperor Xieyuan planned a decisive assault three years later. After more than seventy years of cultivation, Ye Qingxuan had greatly improved his abilities and found Qingxuan Cave Heaven and Qingxuan Blessed Land nearing the Ninth Tier; he then visited the flourishing Qingxuan Virtual Market before starting a new round of cultivation.

• The Human Race's major powers supported the Lingxiao Temple Master's proposal, dividing their experts between guarding the Human Border Pass and attempting their final closed-door breakthroughs.
• Emperor Xieyuan, concerned by the Human Race's silence, ordered the Azure Devil Race to gather its top combat power and attack the Human Border Pass in three years.
• Ye Qingxuan emerged from over seventy years of cultivation with his Divine Abilities at their current limits and his Rule Powers at the Ninety Percent Realm.
• Ye Qingxuan sensed that Qingxuan Cave Heaven and Qingxuan Blessed Land were nearing the Ninth Tier, which could hasten his advancement to the Middle Tribulation Crossing Realm.
• Ye Qingxuan visited the increasingly renowned Qingxuan Virtual Market, where the Blessed Cultivator Three Paths had spread across the Dihuan Realm Nine Domains.
• Ye Qingxuan left the market and began a new round of closed-door cultivation to improve his skills in alchemy, artifact refinement, formations, and talismans.

Three years after the Human Race began preparing for ascension, Emperor Xieyuan led Azure Devil Race experts in an attack on the Dihuan Realm’s border pass and discovered that the Human Race was hiding a mass breakthrough attempt. After retreating, he ordered Azure Devil experts who had grasped Great Dao Law True Intent to pursue Immortal Realm breakthroughs and ascend in hopes of overtaking the Dihuan Realm.

• Emperor Xieyuan led more than a hundred Azure Devil Race experts to attack the Human Border Pass, but Yan Wuji and the Human experts defended it with the Great Wall’s formations.
• The Azure Devil Race shattered the Great Wall’s Seven-Colored Phantom, while the Human experts and the pass endured the assault without suffering obvious damage.
• Emperor Xieyuan and Moxing deduced that the absent Human experts were attempting Immortal Realm breakthroughs to help the Dihuan Realm ascend, and the Azure Devil experts lost their will to fight.
• Emperor Xieyuan ordered the Azure Devil Race to retreat after weighing the risks of continuing the battle.
• Back in the palace, Emperor Xieyuan ordered experts who had grasped Great Dao Law True Intent to leave the alliance, break through to the Immortal Realm, strike the Human Border Pass, and ascend.

Emperor Xieyuan ordered Azure Devil Race experts to prepare for Immortal Realm breakthroughs while sending forces into the Dihuan Realm to sow chaos. As the renewed demonic disaster spread, Yan Wuji mobilized the Human Race, and Ye Qingxuan sent his Void Glimpse Realm subordinates to fight, leaving them to set out for the East Extremity Domain with his newly awakened spirit beasts.

• Emperor Xieyuan persuaded the Azure Devil Race's Mahayana experts to cultivate far from the border and approved Moxing's plan to send Spirit Transformation and Void Glimpse Realm forces into the Dihuan Realm.
• Azure Devil Race infiltrators attacked across the Nine Domains and the Endless Sea Domain, targeting spirit veins and killing humans, while cultivators spread warnings through Ye Qingxuan's Virtual Markets.
• Yan Wuji ordered the Dihuan Realm Alliance and its branches to mobilize experts to suppress the invasion and protect the Inner Five Domains, Outer Four Domains, and Endless Sea Domain.
• Ye Qingxuan summoned Zhaoheng, Zhaoyu, Yun'er, Cai'er, Luo Tian, Xueyu, Bai Shuqing, Liu Feifeng, Jiang Wen, Li Mu, and Jiang Yinyin, and sent them to suppress the demonic disaster after giving seven of them low-grade Spirit Treasures.
• Luo Tian and the others chose the East Extremity Domain, and Zhaoheng, Zhaoyu, Yun'er, and Cai'er decided to join them and bring the newly awakened Azure Dragon, Xiao Kong, and Xiao Ling at Ye Qingxuan's instruction.

As the Azure Devil Race’s invasion intensified, the Dihuan Realm Alliance mobilized its forces while Ye Qingxuan sent his retainers into the world and resumed cultivating. Liu Cai’er arrived at Luoyuan City just as three Azure Devil Race experts broke its defenses, and sent Xiao Ling after the fleeing attackers.

• Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu departed with Liu Yun'er and Liu Cai'er after Ye Qingxuan approved their plan, while Ye Qingxuan chose not to disturb Ye Qingshuang or make further arrangements for the Ye Family.
• The Dihuan Realm Alliance and its sixteen Branch Alliances mobilized to patrol and suppress the invasion, and Elder Sun assigned Yu Xueqing to remain on Blazing Sun Continent because she was pregnant.
• Ye Qingxiao left to patrol the Endless Sea Domain after embracing Yu Xueqing, who stayed behind to await his safe return and care for their unborn child.
• Three Void Glimpse Realm Azure Devil Race members attacked Luoyuan City, where Gu Xiaoyuan discovered that the surrounding space had been sealed and the city’s defenses were collapsing.
• Liu Cai'er arrived with Xiao Ling, prompting the three attackers to flee; she ordered Xiao Ling to pursue them and told Gu Xiaoyuan she had come on her young master's orders to suppress the Demonic Disaster.

Ye Zhaoheng, Ye Zhaoyu, Liu Yun'er, and Liu Cai'er hunted Azure Devil Race invaders while the enemy prepared attacks across the Endless Sea Domain. Thirty-six peak Void Glimpse Realm Azure Devil Race members ambushed Blazing Sun Continent, and Yu Xueqing and the few defenders were driven back as the invaders slaughtered its people.

• Ye Zhaoheng, Ye Zhaoyu, Liu Yun'er, and Liu Cai'er split up to hunt Azure Devil Race members across the East Extremity Domain, killing more than a hundred in less than a month.
• Thirty-six peak Void Glimpse Realm Azure Devil Race members hid beneath the sea for three months before setting out to attack Blazing Sun Continent.
• The Azure Devil Race squad trapped the three Human Race Void Comprehension Realm defenders with six Mid-grade Spirit Treasures, but the defenders countered with treasures of their own.
• The Azure Devil Race members abandoned hopes of destroying the entire continent and scattered to destroy spirit veins and massacre its people.
• Yu Xueqing and fewer than ten Void Glimpse Realm defenders confronted the thirty-six invaders, but the Human Race group was beaten back.

Azure Devil Race invaders devastated the Blazing Sun Continent, and Yu Xueqing was gravely injured while protecting her unborn child. After the Human Race broke the blockade and reinforcements arrived, Ye Qingxiao returned to find her unconscious and feared he had come too late.

• Yu Xueqing was struck by the Azure Devil Race’s Seed of Demonic Arts and suppressed the spreading devil qi while trying to protect her unborn child.
• The Azure Devil Race destroyed spirit veins and killed countless people across the Blazing Sun Continent as three Human Race experts struggled against a blockade.
• The Xuantian Sect Elder detonated his Mid-grade Spirit Treasure, shattering the continent’s spatial blockade and helping the three experts escape.
• The Azure Devil Race invaders fled, but one attacker struck Yu Xueqing again; the Xuantian Sect Elder and Elder Sun could only temporarily preserve her and her fetus’s lives after discovering devil qi had invaded their origins.
• Ye Qingxiao received news of the attack, raced back to the Blazing Sun Continent, and found Yu Xueqing unconscious in Elder Sun’s arms.

Ye Qingxiao begged Ye Qingxuan to save Yu Xueqing after Elder Sun said the devil qi had irreversibly eroded her origin. Ye Qingxuan revived her briefly, then sealed her body and separated their child, leaving Ye Qingxiao with a possible path to revive her after he reached the Immortal Realm Level.

• Ye Qingxiao summoned Ye Qingxuan through the Boundary Suppressing Pagoda and pleaded for him to save Yu Xueqing.
• Ye Qingxuan used the Life and Death Seal to awaken Yu Xueqing temporarily, but explained that her life could not be saved because devil qi had destroyed her origin.
• Yu Xueqing asked Ye Qingxuan to save her and Ye Qingxiao's child, then died in Ye Qingxiao's arms.
• Ye Qingxuan told Ye Qingxiao he could revive Yu Xueqing if he found the Azure Devil Race Expert responsible, removed the entangled devil qi using that Expert's origin, and reached the Immortal Realm Level.
• Ye Qingxuan sealed Yu Xueqing's body in a Rule Coffin, separated and preserved the child, then took Ye Qingxiao and the child toward the Eastern Domain of the Dihuan Realm.

Ye Qingxuan brought Ye Qingxiao and Yu Xueqing’s child back to Qingxuan Cave Heaven, where he gave Ye Qingxiao a way to seek the Azure Devil Race Expert responsible for Yu Xueqing’s condition. Seven years later, Ye Qingxuan cared for the frail Ye Xiaoging and treated the Devil Qi in her body, while she wondered why her parents had not returned.

• Ye Qingxuan explained that Yu Xueqing could still be resurrected and brought Ye Qingxiao back to Qingxuan Cave Heaven with their child.
• Ye Qingxuan gave Ye Qingxiao extracted Devil Qi to help him track down the Azure Devil Race Expert who had harmed Yu Xueqing, and Ye Qingxiao left to pursue that goal.
• Ye Qingxuan kept Ye Xiaoging in Qingxuan Cave Heaven and spent seven years gradually purifying the Devil Qi in her origin while repairing her body with the Blessed Land’s power.
• After treatment, Ye Xiaoging asked when her parents would return and feared they had abandoned her or that she was dying.
• Ye Qingxuan comforted Ye Xiaoging and reflected that Ye Qingxiao had not returned or sent word in seven years, though he sensed that Ye Qingxiao was still alive.

Ye Qingxiao continued tracking the Azure Devil Race member who had evaded him for seven years, while Cen Zhe returned to Xuantian Sect after breaking through into the Immortal Realm and prepared to pass the Sect Master position to Liu Tai'an before ascending. At the succession ceremony, Ye Qingxuan appeared among the Enforcement Elders, whose members wondered whether he was the elusive Ancestor of Blessed Cultivation.

• Ye Qingxiao tracked the Azure Devil Race member to a sea domain, found no trace, and continued pursuing the target elsewhere.
• Cen Zhe returned to Xuantian Sect after breaking through into the Immortal Realm and told Ye Qingxuan that he planned to pass the Sect Master position to Liu Tai'an before ascending.
• Ye Qingxuan agreed to attend Liu Tai'an's succession ceremony, and Cen Zhe awakened Liu Tai'an from cultivation to inform him of the plan.
• Liu Tai'an told Cen Zhe that his Spiritual Power Cultivation had reached the peak of the Early Tribulation Crossing Realm, though his Rule Realm remained just short of the requirement for the next breakthrough.
• One year later, the Mystic Sound Bell rang twelve times, summoning Xuantian Sect's disciples and elders to Xuantian Peak for the succession ceremony.
• Ye Qingxuan appeared among the Tribulation Crossing Realm Enforcement Elders, who speculated that he was the legendary Ancestor of Blessed Cultivation.

Ye Qingxuan attended Liu Taian’s succession ceremony as Cen Zhe formally named Liu Taian the new Xuantian Sect Master and handed him the Xuantian Sword. The ceremony’s announcement spread across the Eastern Domain, while Zhong Shenxiu’s peers Tantai Yuexia and Shi Poxiao grew more intent on competing for the sect master position in the future.

• He Yijun and Yi Tianzong recognized Ye Qingxuan as he arrived for the ceremony, and Luo Linger and Zhong Shenxiu later spotted him among the gathered disciples and elders.
• Zhong Shenxiu noticed Tantai Yuexia and Shi Poxiao watching him as potential rivals for the future sect master position.
• Cen Zhe announced that he was stepping down after reaching the Immortal Realm and presented the Xuantian Sword to Liu Taian.
• Liu Taian accepted the sword and vowed to shoulder the sect’s responsibilities, and Cen Zhe declared him the new Xuantian Sect Master.
• Cen Zhe projected the ceremony across the Eastern Domain, announcing Liu Taian’s succession to cultivators and forces throughout the region.
• Yao Qiudao declared the ceremony complete, and Ye Qingxuan disappeared before several elders could approach him.

After Liu Tai'an succeeded as Xuantian Sect Master, Ye Qingxuan gave him six hundred origin seeds as a congratulatory gift, and Cen Zhe completed the transfer of the sect’s inheritances. Three years later, the Lingxiao Temple Master gathered Human Race experts to plan their ascension and Dihuan Realm’s advancement, while leaving the alliance’s future and defense of the Human Border Pass to later generations.

• Ye Qingxuan presented Liu Tai'an with three hundred Cave Heaven Origin Seeds and three hundred Blessed Land Origin Seeds, which Liu Tai'an accepted after Cen Zhe urged him to.
• Cen Zhe finished handing Xuantian Sect’s inheritances to Liu Tai'an, while hegemon-level forces across Dihuan Realm held succession ceremonies as their leaders left seclusion.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master convened fifty-nine Immortal Realm Human Race experts and other leaders, directing the Immortal Realm group to strike the Azure Devil Race Border Pass before ascending.
• Long Daoyu asked whether the Dihuan Realm Alliance should continue and who would guard the Human Border Pass after the experts departed.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master said the alliance should remain in place for now and that the Border Pass should not be abandoned unless its fall became certain.

The Human Race Experts agreed on a compromise for leaving Great Dao Imprints, then gathered at the Human Border Pass Great Wall to prepare a final attack on the Azure Devil Realm Border Pass before the Immortal Realm cultivators ascended. Cen Zhe summoned the Xuantian Sword as the attack began.

• The Lingxiao Temple Master proposed that Immortal Realm cultivators leave their Great Dao Imprints on the Human Border Pass Great Wall, but Yunhai and other experts from Pseudo Hegemon-level Forces refused because they needed to protect their sects.
• Cen Zhe proposed that experts from hegemon-level forces leave their imprints at the Great Wall while the others left theirs with their sects, and the Lingxiao Temple Master approved the arrangement and set a three-day schedule.
• Three days later, Cen Zhe, Tong Yanye, Yao Qiudao, the other Xuantian Sect patriarchs, and Liu Tai'an traveled to the Human Border Pass Great Wall, where the Lingxiao Temple Master introduced Cen Zhe to Yun Jiuxiao.
• The Human Race Immortal Realm experts left their Great Dao Imprints on the Great Wall, then flew toward the Azure Devil Realm Border Pass while Liu Tai'an, Yun Jiuxiao, and the other successors stayed behind.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master ordered the Human Race Experts to attack, and Cen Zhe summoned the Xuantian Sword from Liu Tai'an as the others called forth their inherited Immortal Artifacts.

Cen Zhe and the Human Race experts destroyed the Azure Devil Realm Border Pass Great Wall, forcing the Azure Devil Realm’s rules to intervene and cede territory to Dihuan Realm. Cen Zhe returned to Xuantian Sect and began ascending, while Ye Qingxuan watched the channel carry his master away.

• Cen Zhe and the Human Race experts unleashed a torrent of Great Dao Laws that shattered the Azure Devil Realm Border Pass Great Wall and swept into the Azure Devil Realm.
• The Azure Devil Realm’s rules restrained the torrent by diverting power from their struggle with Dihuan Realm, allowing Dihuan Realm’s rules to claim the border region.
• The Lingxiao Temple Master and other Human Race Immortal Realm Experts fled toward Dihuan Realm, leaving their Immortal Artifacts with their successors; Liu Tai'an and the other heirs departed the Human Border Pass.
• Cen Zhe returned to Xuantian Sect, where the ascension phenomenon appeared and the disciples bowed to send him off.
• Ye Qingxuan recognized that Cen Zhe was ascending as the channel opened and carried Cen Zhe away, transforming his body and Immortal Soul along the way.

After Cen Zhe and fifty-eight other Human Race immortals ascended, the energy and laws pouring through their channels triggered Dihuan Realm’s transformation toward Great Thousand Realm. The realm’s laws began expanding and its space rapidly grew, leaving its inhabitants excitedly watching the ascension begin.

• Ye Qingxuan returned to Qingxuan Cave Heaven after bidding farewell to Cen Zhe, while Cen Zhe’s lingering ascension channel blessed Xuantian Peak and helped its disciples and spirit veins transform.
• Liu Tai'an vowed to protect Xuantian Sect, and the other fifty-eight Human Race Immortal Realm strong practitioners ascended from their factions or hometowns, leaving fifty-nine channels that fed Dihuan Realm energy and law fragments.
• As Dihuan Realm trembled, Ye Qingxuan reassured cultivators in Qingxuan Virtual Market that the realm was ascending, then comforted Ye Xiaoging as news spread throughout the Nine Domains.
• After seven days, Dihuan Realm’s Origin Space began perfecting new Great Dao Laws, expanding its rule framework and World Crystal Wall while drawing in Chaos Energy and consuming its World Origin.
• Cultivators across Dihuan Realm recognized that its inner space was expanding and celebrated the beginning of its ascension toward Great Thousand Realm.

Dihuan Realm began ascending toward a Great Thousand Realm, transforming its territories and sealing itself off from Azure Devil Realm behind a Great Dao Law Barrier. Azure Devil Realm followed months later, and after Emperor Xieyuan reached the Immortal Realm, he learned Dihuan Realm had taken the lead and decided to ascend early to help his realm catch up.

• Dihuan Realm began expanding and transforming, and Ye Qingxuan placed a Tier 10 Spirit Vein in Qingxuan Cave Heaven.
• A Great Dao Law Barrier sealed Dihuan Realm off from Azure Devil Realm, so the Three Venerables stayed at the Border Pass and cultivated by the barrier.
• Dihuan Realm gradually encroached on Azure Devil Realm, prompting Azure Devil Realm to begin its own advancement months later.
• Emperor Xieyuan and other Azure Devil Race Experts celebrated Azure Devil Realm's ascension, then mostly returned to seclusion.
• Two years later, Emperor Xieyuan broke through into the Immortal Realm and flew to the Boundary Between Two Realms, where he found Azure Devil Realm's own Great Dao Law Barrier.
• Emperor Xieyuan learned Dihuan Realm had begun advancing first and decided to ascend early so the Upper Realm's feedback could help Azure Devil Realm.
