Chapter Summaries

Ye Qingxiao detonated ten Tier 3 Spirit Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pills, purifying a Devil Den and killing every Demonic Beast inside while leaving its Devil Qi Origins intact.

• Ye Qingxiao detonated ten Spirit Cleansing Nuclear Explosion Pills, erasing the Devil Qi and Demonic Beasts in the den and purifying the surrounding area.
• Ye Qingxiao collected the Devil Qi Origins and the Devil Den's origin while the others respected the sect's rules and left the spoils to him.
• Wu Hong asked how Ye Qingxiao had cleared the den, and Ye Qingxiao credited the pills to Tianfu Shop and demonstrated an ordinary Nuclear Explosion Pill.
• Ye Qingxiao explained the pills' uses, and Wu Hong and the other disciples became interested in their power and convenience.
• The Xuantian Sect Disciples left the Outer Realm Battlefield and headed for Tianfu Shop to buy Nuclear Explosion Pills.

Ye Qingxiao recruited Yu Xueqing to help promote Nuclear Explosion Pills and advanced his cultivation at the Xuantian Sect outpost. Meanwhile, Tianfu Shop began selling Ye Qingxuan’s pills to eager disciples, and Ye Qingxuan reviewed production before leaving his Blessed Land for tea.

• Ye Qingxiao persuaded Yu Xueqing to accompany him and help promote Nuclear Explosion Pills in exchange for the Tier 2 Devilish Qi Origin he collected.

• Wu Hong, Long Yunze, and other Xuantian Sect Disciples bought Nuclear Explosion Pills at Tianfu Shop, where Zhu Dafu recorded sales exceeding one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
• Zhu Dafu reported the sales to Ye Qingxuan, then arranged publicity about the pills’ power and uses.
• Ye Qingxuan assessed his pill varieties, costs, and production rates, decided the output should meet demand, and left Qingxuan Blessed Land to drink tea.

Ye Qingxiao and Zhu Dafu’s promotion made Nuclear Explosion Pills wildly popular, pushing Tianfu Shop beyond its capacity. Ye Qingxuan ordered the shop upgraded to a Large Shop and began expanding production, while Tianfu Shop’s success attracted suppliers and the attention of Xuantian Sect’s high-level members.

• Ye Qingxiao and Yu Xueqing promoted Nuclear Explosion Pills to crowds, spreading news of the pills among Xuantian Sect Disciples, nearby powers, and Rogue Cultivators.
• After three months of promotion by Ye Qingxiao and Zhu Dafu, Tianfu Shop was overwhelmed with customers and Zhu Dafu warned Ye Qingxuan that supplies would soon fall short.
• Ye Qingxuan told Zhu Dafu to promote Tianfu Shop to a Large Shop and returned to Qingxuan Blessed Land to expand the Nuclear Explosion Production Line.
• Zhu Dafu paid the required deposit, signed the contract for Ye Qingxuan, and oversaw Tianfu Shop’s expansion, stocking its new space and assigning Shop Assistants to work there.
• Zhu Dafu received more offers from channel providers and raised his quality standards, while finding it difficult to secure high-tier Talismans.
• Tianfu Shop’s Nuclear Explosion Pills drove down prices for Talismans below Tier 5, and the shop attracted covert scrutiny from people including Xuantian Sect’s high-level members.

The Pill Hall Master recognized Ye Qingxuan’s exceptional skill and arranged to conceal his identity so he could develop without interference. Meanwhile, Zhao Yuanji failed to uncover Tianfu Shop’s hidden backer and went to confront Zhu Dafu, who was told a True Inheritance Senior Brother had come to see him.

• The Pill Hall Master identified the Nuclear Explosion Pill’s techniques from four paths and decided to raise Ye Qingxuan’s Confidentiality Level rather than provide him extra resources.
• The Internal Affairs Hall and Enforcement Hall approved the measure, restricting access to Ye Qingxuan’s information and arranging for traces of him to be erased.
• Zhao Yuanji learned that his investigation could trace Tianfu Shop only to Zhu Dafu, and he decided to meet the shopkeeper to seek the Nuclear Explosion Pill’s recipe.
• Zhu Dafu remained at Tianfu Shop, turning away inquiries about its backer while considering the shop’s future expansion.
• A shop attendant told Zhu Dafu that a True Inheritance Senior Brother had arrived to see him.

Zhao Yuanji confronted Zhu Dafu at Tianfu Shop and tried to pressure him into selling a stake, but Zhu refused. After leaving, Zhao ordered Li Xue to watch Zhu and report if he left the sect, leaving Zhu wary of going outside Xuantian Sect.

• Zhao Yuanji visited Tianfu Shop, dismissed Ziyu, and smashed Zhu Dafu’s table while asserting his authority.
• Zhao Yuanji offered to buy a stake in Tianfu Shop, stressing Zhu Dafu’s weaker cultivation as an implicit threat, but Zhu refused.

• After Zhao Yuanji left, Zhu Dafu admitted how much the confrontation had shaken him and decided to avoid leaving the sect.
• Zhao Yuanji ordered Li Xue to watch Zhu Dafu and report when he left Xuantian Sect, then pressured Li Xue into obeying.

Yan Zongfeng warned Zhao Yuanji to stop pursuing the Nuclear Explosion Pill’s recipe by crooked means and filed him for observation, while Zhao Yuanji left the sect with Li Xue to visit the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild. A month later, as pressure around Tianfu Shop eased, Zhu Dafu received a message from his parents and forwarded it to Ye Qingxuan, leaving the decision to him.

• Yan Zongfeng confronted Zhao Yuanji at his Cave Mansion and warned him not to seize resources from fellow disciples or violate Xuantian Sect’s Sect Rule.
• Zhao Yuanji told Li Xue to stop watching Zhu Dafu, then took her out of the sect to visit the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild.
• Yan Zongfeng filed Zhao Yuanji’s information with the Enforcement Hall so it could monitor him outside the sect.
• Over the next month, harassment of Zhu Dafu declined as people recognized the risks of targeting Tianfu Shop and the Nuclear Explosion Pill’s limits.
• Zhu Dafu received a message from his parents, sighed that the decision was not his to make, and sent the information to Ye Qingxuan.

Ye Qingxuan agreed to sell the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe while warning the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild that it contained a trap and making clear he would not be responsible for what followed. Zhu Chui Xiang arranged to spread word of the sale for a rebate, while Zhu Dafu secretly kept part of the cut.

• Ye Qingxuan considered selling the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe to the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild and told Zhu Dafu to let the guild name its price first.
• Zhu Dafu, worried about harming his family, passed Ye Qingxuan's warning to Zhu Chui Xiang and asked him to decide whether to buy the recipe.
• Zhu Chui Xiang decided the guild should buy the recipe and spread news of the sale to attract other buyers, seeking a rebate from Ye Qingxuan.
• Ye Qingxuan agreed to the plan, instructed Zhu Dafu to warn buyers that the recipe was difficult to use and that Tianfu Shop accepted no responsibility, and offered Zhu Chui Xiang a three-percent rebate for spreading the news.
• Zhu Chui Xiang accepted a one-percent rebate, while Zhu Dafu kept the other two percentage points for himself.

Zhu Fatian and Zhao Yuanji agreed to buy the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe, and Zhu Yishan negotiated with Tianfu Shop on behalf of the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild. After settling the price at sixteen million High-grade Spirit Stones, Zhu Yishan grew suspicious of how smoothly the deal was going and tested Tianfu Shop by cutting his offer to six million.

• Zhu Yishan told Zhu Fatian that Tianfu Shop was willing to sell the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe but warned that it was difficult to refine.
• Zhao Yuanji dismissed Tianfu Shop's warning, and Zhu Fatian instructed Zhu Yishan to offer ten million High-grade Spirit Stones, with a maximum of thirty million.
• After three days of negotiations led by Ye Qingxuan, the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild agreed to pay sixteen million High-grade Spirit Stones for the recipe.
• Ye Qingxuan imposed restrictions against reselling the recipe, producing pills for other powers, or selling pills below Tianfu Shop's price.
• Zhu Yishan grew wary of Tianfu Shop's willingness to sell the recipe again and lowered his offer to six million High-grade Spirit Stones to test its reaction.

Ye Qingxuan sold the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe to the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild for sixteen million High-grade Spirit Stones, despite Zhu Yishan’s suspicions. After the guild brought the recipe home, Zhao Yuanji and Zhu Fatian discovered its complicated requirements and realized the deal might have trapped them.

• Ye Qingxuan set sixteen million High-grade Spirit Stones as his final price and refused to negotiate further.
• Zhu Yishan questioned the deal, but Zhao Yuanji dismissed his concerns and Zhu Fatian agreed to buy the recipe.
• Tianfu Shop and the Zhu Clan Merchant Guild signed a contract under the protection of Xuantian Sect’s External Affairs Hall.
• The Zhu Clan Merchant Guild paid for the recipe and hurried home to examine it.
• Zhao Yuanji and Zhu Fatian discovered that making Nuclear Explosion Pills required expertise in pill refinement, artifact forging, talismans, and formations, and Zhu Fatian angrily confronted Zhao Yuanji.

Zhu Fatian collected 3 million High-grade Spirit Stones from Zhao Yuanji toward his share of the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe, while Zhao Yuanji promised to pay the remainder later. Tianfu Shop then signed matching contracts with seven more forces, accepting selected resources as partial payment as Ye Qingxuan prepared for future expansion.

• Zhu Fatian demanded that Zhao Yuanji pay 8 million High-grade Spirit Stones, and Zhao Yuanji paid 3 million while promising to provide the rest later.
• Zhao Yuanji returned to the Xuantian Sect and began taking on numerous Sect Missions to earn Spirit Stones.
• The Starlight Merchant Guild, Li Clan Merchant Guild, Liu Clan Merchant Guild, Heavenly Saber Sect, Ancient Pill Sect, Spirit Beast Sect, and Myriad Medicine Valley each signed a 16-million-High-grade-Spirit-Stone contract with Tianfu Shop.
• Ye Qingxuan allowed the seven forces to pay partly with qualifying Spirit Plant Seeds, Spirit Beasts, or Spirit Minerals, while barring last-minute outsourced purchases.
• The three merchant guilds paid with Spirit Minerals, the Heavenly Saber Sect paid with Spirit Minerals and Spirit Stones, and the Ancient Pill Sect and Myriad Medicine Valley paid mostly with Spirit Stones and some Spirit Plant Seeds.

Ye Qingxuan selected five kinds of spirit beasts from the Spirit Beast Sect and received them alongside a large payment of High-grade Spirit Stones. After tallying his trade gains and examining the spirit plant seeds, he stored his supplies in Qingxuan Cave Heaven and kept the rare seeds for future cultivation.

• Ye Qingxuan chose Earth Dragons, Myriad Flower Spirit Butterflies, Spirit Infusion Bees, an Azure Spirit Flood Dragon, and Earth Spirit Turtles from the Spirit Beast Sect’s list.
• The Spirit Beast Sect agreed to provide the selected beasts in specified quantities, and Zhu Dafu arranged their delivery with 14.27 million High-grade Spirit Stones.
• Ye Qingxuan received 65.15 million High-grade Spirit Stones after fees and rebates, along with spirit minerals, seeds, and beasts from the Eight Powers’ trades.
• Ye Qingxuan transferred the spirit minerals and Spirit Stones into Qingxuan Cave Heaven and examined the Spirit Plant Seeds, including twenty-six Tier Seven seeds.
• Ye Qingxuan stored the seeds for the future and took out five Spirit Beast Bags to inspect the spirit beasts.

Ye Qingxuan contracted the Spirit Beast Sect’s spirit beasts, named and began raising Azure Dragon, and prepared Bloodline Pills to strengthen its potential. After learning Tianfu Shop faced retaliation and a Star Continent blockade over the Nuclear Explosion Pill recipe, he remained unconcerned and returned to steady cultivation, leaving Tianfu Shop to lie low.

• Ye Qingxuan used the Qingxuan Cave Heaven Blessed Land to control the spirit beasts, assigned them to different habitats, and named the young Azure Spirit Flood Dragon Azure Dragon.
• Ye Qingxuan exchanged for ten First-tier Bloodline Fruits, refined them into eighty-six Bloodline Pills, and fed one to Azure Dragon.
• Zhu Dafu told Ye Qingxuan that Tianfu Shop outposts had been smashed and that the shop would be blockaded across Star Continent.
• Ye Qingxuan decided the retaliation posed little threat while Tianfu Shop’s base inside the Xuantian Sect remained safe, and he was surprised that no one had confronted him there.
• Ye Qingxuan managed his spirit plants and stored herbs for future trade, then resumed his cultivation routine and planned to make Tianfu Shop less conspicuous.

During years of deep cultivation, Ye Qingxuan received low-tier Devilish Qi Origin from Ye Qingxiao and found a way to purify it into Primary Origin Energy. He used the energy to nourish three special Tier Seven Spirit Plant Seed in Qingxuan Cave Heaven, then returned to his cultivation routine as his Quiet Heart Tea Tree neared Tier 4.

• Ye Qingxuan had Ye Zhaoyu bring him rubbings from Xuantian Sect's Library Pavilion, while Zhu Dafu delivered a first batch of Outer Realm Battlefield goods that held little of interest.

• Ye Qingxuan decided to purify the low-tier Devilish Qi Origin into Primary Origin Energy and use it to nourish three special Tier Seven Spirit Plant Seed.
• Ye Qingxuan had Ye Zhaoheng buy formation materials, arranged a Tier 4 Cave Heaven Blessed Land Purification Formation, and purified the Devilish Qi Origin over three hours.
• Ye Qingxuan planted White Lotus, Purple Bamboo, and Armor Vine in Qingxuan Cave Heaven and enveloped the seeds in Primary Origin Energy.
• Ye Qingxuan resumed cultivating and tending his Cave Heaven Blessed Land, while the Tier Three Quiet Heart Tea Tree began showing signs of reaching Tier 4.

After a century of secluded cultivation, Ye Qingxuan had nearly reached Peak Purple Mansion, while Ye Qingxiao had advanced to Mid Golden Core and Ye Zhaoyang had returned injured from the Outer Realm Battlefield. With the deadline to deliver the first batch of Blessed Land resources to the Ye Family now arrived, Ye Qingxuan worried about how to explain where they came from to Ye Yuhong.

• Ye Qingxuan ignored messages from other Blessed Cultivators and spent his years tending Qingxuan Blessed Land, with visits from Bai Wenyang, Hong Miaomiao, Bai Qingyun, and Ye Qingxiao.
• Hong Miaomiao and Bai Qingyun gave Ye Qingxuan Half Spirit Beast delicacies, while Ye Qingxiao exchanged Devilish Qi Origin for Nuclear Explosion Pills and Quiet Heart Tea.
• Ye Qingxuan cultivated for more than eighty years, nearly reaching Peak Purple Mansion, while Ye Qingxiao secretly advanced to Mid Golden Core.
• Ye Zhaoyang returned from the Outer Realm Battlefield severely injured after triggering residual energy in its Inner Ring, then entered seclusion to heal.
• The hundred-year deadline to hand the Ye Family its first batch of Blessed Land resources arrived, and Ye Qingxuan worried about explaining their source to Ye Yuhong.

Ye Qingxuan calculated that the Ye Family’s thirty-percent share of a century of Spirit Plant yields amounted to 300,000 High-grade Spirit Stones and informed Ye Yuhong that the share was ready. He inspected the Qingxuan Cave Heaven’s slow-growing plants and creatures, then waited with Azure Dragon for Ye Yuhong to arrive.

• Ye Qingxuan calculated the Ye Family’s share of the Blessed Land’s century of Spirit Plant production as 300,000 High-grade Spirit Stones and sent Ye Yuhong a message to collect it.
• Ye Qingxuan returned to the Qingxuan Cave Heaven and noted that its rare high-tier Spirit Plants had only reached Second Tier, while the cave’s origin accumulated too slowly for it to advance quickly.
• Azure Dragon, now at Peak Second-tier, greeted Ye Qingxuan, who stroked him and reflected on the Bloodline Pills he had bought to support the Flood Dragon’s growth.
• Ye Qingxuan reviewed the slow growth and numbers of his Spirit Beasts, including his Earth Dragons, Myriad Flower Spirit Butterflies, and Spirit Infusion Bees.
• Ye Qingxuan fed Azure Dragon Spirit Stones, took him out of the Cave Heaven, and waited in the Stone Pavilion for Ye Yuhong.

Ye Yuhong traveled to the Xuantian Sect to seek aid for the struggling Ye Family and meet Ye Qingxuan, whose Blessed Land resources he had underestimated. He was astonished by Ye Qingxuan’s changed bearing and by the cultivation of Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu, whom Qingxuan had raised to the Peak Purple Mansion Realm.

• Ye Yuhong received Ye Qingxuan’s message and decided to exchange the Blessed Land resources for Spirit Augmentation Pills while seeking help from Ye Zhaoyang.
• Ye Yuhong reflected on the Ye Family’s heavy losses in the Outer Realm Battlefield and its urgent need to nurture younger cultivators.
• Ye Yuhong reached the Xuantian Sect but failed to find Ye Zhaoyang, who was recovering in closed-door cultivation.
• Ye Yuhong followed Ye Qingxuan’s directions to Qingxuan Blessed Land, where Ye Qingxuan welcomed him with Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu.
• Ye Yuhong recognized the brothers only after they introduced themselves and was shocked that both had reached the Peak Purple Mansion Realm under Ye Qingxuan’s care.

Ye Qingxuan gave Ye Yuhong quiet heart tea and handed him the Ye Family’s century share of three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones. Ye Yuhong was shocked by the sum but chose not to press Ye Qingxuan about how he had earned it, leaving with the lineage’s unexpected fortune.

• Ye Qingxuan served Ye Yuhong quiet heart tea, whose effect on his thinking impressed him.
• Ye Qingxuan offered Ye Yuhong some tea to take home and handed him a storage bag containing the Ye Family’s century share.
• Ye Yuhong discovered the bag held three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones and asked whether Ye Qingxuan had found a treasure in his blessed land.
• Ye Qingxuan said he had earned the spirit stones himself, but Ye Yuhong did not believe him and dropped the subject to preserve their relationship.
• Ye Qingxuan reflected that the Ye Family’s early support had helped him reach his current position and continue cultivating safely within Xuantian Sect.

Ye Yuhong asked Ye Qingxuan to help the Ye Family exchange spirit stones for cultivation resources, and Ye Qingxuan agreed. After arranging the purchase, Ye Qingxuan learned that his parents and younger siblings were living well, though he worried that his parents had little time left.

• Ye Yuhong described the Ye Family's circumstances and asked Ye Qingxuan to exchange their spirit stones for cultivation resources.
• Ye Qingxuan showed Ye Yuhong a list of resources, and Ye Yuhong selected pills and Nuclear Explosion Pills worth 280,200 high-grade spirit stones.
• Ye Qingxuan sent Ye Zhaoheng to Tianfu Shop with the spirit stones to purchase the selected resources.
• Ye Qingxuan asked Ye Yuhong about his parents and younger siblings, and Ye Yuhong said they were living happily with their descendants.
• Ye Qingxuan reflected on how much time had passed and felt relieved that his family was well, though his parents had little lifespan remaining.

Ye Qingxuan confirmed the black material from the Outer Realm Battlefield was the World Fetal Membrane and spent ten years refining it into an embryonic World Map, his Natal Magic Treasure. After it strengthened Qingxuan Cave Heaven, a Blood-colored Longsword tore through space toward Xuantian Peak.

• Ye Qingxuan tested the black hide-like material Zhu Dafu had collected and confirmed it was the World Fetal Membrane when it absorbed Chaos Energy.
