Chapter Summaries

Feng Jun arranged to move Nanorobots, warships, and Rain-Praying Arrays to the Lakemarta Desert as preparations for recreating spiritual energy. After Yi Jue recovered from her injuries, Feng Jun confirmed she was well and accompanied her to deliver disciples to the Insectoid World, where she suggested visiting Xingzheng Star.

• Lin Beauty told Feng Jun that she had begun cultivating, and he said the Nanorobots and warships should be sent to the Lakemarta Desert for his plan to recreate spiritual energy there.
• Feng Jun sent Zhang Caixin to deliver the equipment and Nanorobots, and she ordered the receiving party to retreat twenty kilometers before unloading.
• Yi Jue returned to Liba Beach, where Feng Jun used Divination to confirm that her turbulent sea of consciousness was not damaged and that she could recover without the Emergence Soul-Stabilizing Pill.
• Yi Jue agreed to recuperate at her cave residence and asked Feng Jun to return in half a month so she could help with Elder Bian Ji's Feign Death Pill.
• Feng Jun accompanied Yi Jue to the Insectoid World to deliver five hundred Spirit Plant Path disciples, and Yi Jue asked whether they should visit Xingzheng Star next.

Feng Jun refused to let Yi Jue accompany him to Xingzheng Star and then faced Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong’s attempts to obtain his Soul-Fixing Pill. After discussing a possible auction and the danger surrounding Yi Jue’s injury, he showed them a newly made protective talisman, leaving Xuanyuan Buqi to wonder whether they would have died if they had followed Feng Jun.

• Feng Jun sent the Mirror Spirit away after returning to Liba Beach, prompting Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong to ask about the Soul-Fixing Pill.
• Xuanyuan Buqi offered female Nascent Soul cultivators from his clan as cauldrons, but Feng Jun proposed an auction instead of agreeing to a private sale.
• After Xuanyuan Buqi warned that rival forces might bid, Feng Jun suggested Yi Jue could oversee an auction, then urged both men to accept that he could not solve all their families’ shortages.
• Qian Zhong asked about Yi Jue’s injury, and Feng Jun said the culprit had been executed and showed them a protective talisman that had blocked a True Lord’s strike.
• Qian Zhong judged the talisman to be newly made by a likely Tribulation Transcendence cultivator, and Xuanyuan Buqi asked whether they would have been finished if they had accompanied Feng Jun.

Feng Jun discussed the battle in which he killed a powerful enemy, revealing that his elder had erased the resulting karma. Qian Zhong connected a recent battle in the Qingchuan Realm to his secret, and Feng Jun proposed that they investigate the realm together.

• Feng Jun told Qian Zhong and Xuanyuan Buqi that he had been the main target of the attack, survived with help from his talisman, and used a Soul-Fixing Pill to kill the enemy.
• Feng Jun said his elder had erased the karma from the killing, prompting Qian Zhong to ask whether it related to the Qingchuan Realm.
• Qian Zhong explained that the Yao Clan had detected a brief, realm-threatening battle in Qingchuan, where the Heavenly Demon aura had weakened afterward.
• Xuanyuan Buqi considered sending clan members to investigate but declined, and his dismissal led Qian Zhong to stop pressing Feng Jun about the incident.
• Worried that the Yao Clan might uncover his Qingchuan affairs, Feng Jun suggested that the three of them go there together.

Feng Jun chose to avoid the unstable Qingchuan Realm and traveled with Qian Zhong and Xuanyuan Buqi to the Ringvault Domain, bringing Yu Qingzhu along for safety and experience. There, Xuanyuan Buqi introduced him to a large gathering of Xuanyuan Clan cultivators, including the female cultivator Xuanyuan Youdao.

• Xuanyuan Hulie introduced the clan's cultivators, including Xuanyuan Youdao, a female Nascent Soul cultivator he described as possessing the Dao but lacking affection.

Feng Jun traveled with Xuanyuan Buqi and the Xuanyuan Clan to visit the clan’s territory, where Xuanyuan Youdao met him and showed interest in his cultivation method. The chapter ended with Youdao asking him how to choose and relinquish when advancing through the Golden Core stage of the Primordial Chaos Heaven-Swallowing Art.

• Xuanyuan Youdao arrived with Xuanyuan Hulie after hearing that Patriarch Buqi had selected Feng Jun as a possible Dao companion for her.
• Feng Jun released Yu Qingzhu, signaling that he already had a female cultivator by his side, while Youdao and Qingzhu exchanged wary looks.
• Xuanyuan Buqi introduced Qian Zhong to the Xuanyuan Clan disciples as a senior, provoking her with the gesture, and the group strolled until evening.
• Feng Jun asked to see the Blazing Sun Mystic Ice Cavern and mentioned that dietary treasures might help him advance, so Buqi told Youdao to provide them.
• Xuanyuan Youdao asked Feng Jun how to choose and relinquish when the Golden Core was flawless and kidney water transformed into kidney essence.

Feng Jun discussed his cultivation technique with Xuanyuan Youdao, then attended a Xuanyuan family banquet and set off with the family’s cultivators for the Blazing Sun Mystic Ice Cavern. There, the group encountered a Fire Spirit Sect cultivator who claimed his sect had occupied the cavern, provoking Elder Huo Lie.

• Feng Jun explained that he derived cultivation techniques through exhaustive enumeration and declined to reveal more because it was a core inheritance of his sect.
• At the Xuanyuan family banquet, Feng Jun gave one hundred Heavenly Fragrance Fruits to the Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators and let Xuanyuan Buqi decide how to distribute them.
• The next morning, Feng Jun traveled with Xuanyuan Buqi’s party to the Blazing Sun Mystic Ice Cavern, where Xuanyuan Youdao remarked that Feng Jun cared more about practical applications than principles.
• Yu Qingzhu explained how the cavern’s unusual ice formation worked, drawing on her knowledge of a similar ice cavern in the Blue Star Realm.
• A mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the Fire Spirit Sect announced that his sect had occupied the cavern, and Elder Huo Lie objected that it was a Xuanyuan family mining area shared with two other families.

Feng Jun and the Xuanyuan Clan confronted Fire Spirit Sect cultivators occupying the Blazing Sun Mystic Ice Cavern, where Elder Yue Yi was using Mystic Ice to suppress fire poison. Yue Yi recognized Feng Jun as a renowned healer and revealed his connection to Elder Qingji, leaving Feng Jun to consider how she might help.

• Elder Hu Lie challenged the Fire Spirit Sect for occupying the cavern outside its agreed mining rotation, and its cultivator explained that a fire-poisoned elder needed the Mystic Ice.
• The Fire Spirit Sect cultivator recognized Feng Jun and Xuanyuan Buqi, then admitted that its elder was inside the cavern but initially refused to disclose his identity.
• Elder Hu Lie invoked Feng Jun’s divination skills to persuade the cultivator to explain, but a woman inside identified the elder as Yue Yi.
• Qian Zhong and Xuanyuan Buqi revealed themselves as True Lords, and Yue Yi invited them, Feng Jun, and the others into the cavern.
• Feng Jun and the others saw Thunderfire in Yue Yi’s injury, and Yue Yi said he had hoped to find Senior Sister Qingji or contact Feng Jun.
• Yue Yi explained that he had joined the Golden Crow Sect’s main branch and that Elder Qingji had long looked after him.

Feng Jun treated True Immortal Yue Yi’s injuries and followed his karmic trail with the Xuanyuan Clan and Qian Zhong to the Chaotic Wasteland. The group reached the ancient danger zone, where Feng Jun suspected there might be an entrance to the Void, though Qian Zhong said earlier divinations had pointed only to an Alternate Space.

• Feng Jun devised a treatment plan for Yue Yi, who asked him to provide or identify medicines available in the Vault-Circling Realm.
• Qian Zhong offered to sell local medicinal herbs in exchange for information about Yue Yi’s injury, but Yue Yi refused to explain it.
• Xuanyuan Buqi ordered Xuanyuan Hulie to gather distinctive local materials, and the Xuanyuan Clan confirmed that the Han Clan had agreed to let Yue Yi use the Mystic Ice Cavern.
• Feng Jun agreed to investigate Yue Yi’s karmic trail, and the group traveled discreetly to the Chaotic Wasteland.
• Feng Jun questioned whether the wasteland contained an entrance to the Void, while Qian Zhong said experts had divined that it might lead only to an Alternate Space.

Feng Jun and the Xuanyuan Clan tracked the cultivators who had ambushed Yue Yi, identifying True Immortal Jing Vein and a concealed Thunder Cultivator as the culprits. Their pursuit led them to the Gloommist Abyss, where they confronted Jing Vein and her companions.

• Feng Jun traced Yue Yi's ambush to a female cultivator who had fought alongside a masked accomplice.
• Qian Zhong found the battle's residual aura and identified the woman as Jing Vein, a True Immortal and former Golden Crow Sect disciple; she also determined that the masked accomplice was a Thunder Cultivator and that they had left together.
• Feng Jun told the group that Jing Vein had stolen Obsidian, whose main value was its information, and they pursued her through a series of hiding places.
• After three days of tracking, Qian Zhong located Jing Vein at the Gloommist Abyss, and the group hurried there.
• Jing Vein, disguised as an adventurer and accompanied by several cultivators, reached for her Storage Pouch as Feng Jun's group approached; Xuanyuan Buqi used a binding technique to stop her.

Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong captured True Immortal Jingmai’s group, but a suspicious figure escaped into Abyss of Ghostly Fog. They found a spatial coordinate in Jingmai’s storage pouch, and after a failed soul search, Jingmai revealed that she knew they had met Yueyi; Xuanyuan Buqi insisted the Xuanyuan Clan was only seeking compensation for helping him.

• Xuanyuan Buqi restrained True Immortal Jingmai and five others, while a concealed figure fled into Abyss of Ghostly Fog before he could stop him.
• Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong argued over his hesitation and the escaped suspect, whom Qian Zhong identified as the masked person they were seeking.
• Qian Zhong found a black bead in Jingmai’s storage pouch, and Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong recognized it as a spatial coordinate.
• Xuanyuan Huli failed to soul-search Jingmai because she had a sensitive soul restriction, so Xuanyuan Buqi asked Feng Jun whether he could divine the bead’s secret.
• Jingmai warned Xuanyuan Buqi about the consequences of a family cultivator joining sect disputes, and he replied that the Xuanyuan Clan was seeking compensation for its support of Yueyi.

The group traced a corpse recovered from the Gloommist Abyss to the Thieving Vein and learned that its origins lay in the Heavenly Zither Prime Plane. They continued exploring the Vault-Circling Realm while arranging to gather local specialties from other World Domains, but rumors about a hidden treasure trove had begun to spread.

• Qian Zhong sent a Nascent Soul Puppet into the Gloommist Abyss, and it returned with a corpse and several treasures before breaking apart.
• Feng Jun could not identify the corpse, but Xuanyuan Buqi found a Thieving Vein insignia in its Storage Pouch, and Qian Zhong divined that the man's origins lay in the Heavenly Zither Prime Plane.
• Feng Jun agreed to keep sightseeing in the Vault-Circling Realm, and the group spent the next seven or eight days visiting several locations.
• Feng Jun asked Xuanyuan Buqi to collect specialties from other World Domains, and Qian Zhong offered to handle the domains the Xuanyuan Clan could not conveniently enter.
• A Bai family Nascent Soul cultivator told Xuanyuan Buqi that factions were investigating rumors that the Xuanyuan Clan had information about a hidden treasure trove.

Feng Jun negotiated with Xuanyuan Buqi over the Xuanyuan Clan taking on specialty-gathering missions, offering the chance to buy one Emergence Soul-Stabilizing Pill for ten Extreme Spirit. He insisted the clan stop introducing female cultivators to him, leaving Xuanyuan Buqi to decide whether to accept that condition.

• Xuanyuan Buqi reassured the Bai family True Immortal that the Xuanyuan Clan might help her family pursue the rumored treasure, while refusing to introduce her to Feng Jun unless the Bai family gathered enough Extreme Spirit.
• Feng Jun returned the recorded material information to Xuanyuan Youdao, who hinted that she worried about the hardship facing clan disciples on missions.
• Xuanyuan Buqi teased Feng Jun about Xuanyuan Youdao's feelings for him, and Feng Jun suggested awarding the specialty-gathering missions to the Xuanyuan Clan instead.
• Qian Zhong joined their conversation, and Feng Jun offered the Xuanyuan Clan the qualification to buy one Soul-Fixing Pill for ten Extreme Spirit.
• After Qian Zhong asked about the pill's duration, Feng Jun said it used Great Prosperity Era refining methods, prompting Xuanyuan Buqi to accept the reward but confront him again about the prerequisite.

Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong negotiated with Feng Jun over gathering resources and purchasing rights to a Soul Separation Pill. Feng Jun brought Yi Jue back from the Spirit Plant Path, and she proposed checking the treasure coordinates to test her conjectures, but Feng Jun refused to explain until they arrived.

• Qian Zhong challenged Xuanyuan Buqi’s attempt to offer a female cultivator to Feng Jun, and the two agreed to gather resources across the Lower Realms while negotiating pill rights.
• Xuanyuan Buqi promised the Yao Clan priority purchasing rights to the Soul Separation Pill in exchange for help securing rights to a second one.
• Feng Jun left to retrieve Yi Jue from the Spirit Plant Path and returned with her shortly afterward.
• Yi Jue said she wanted to verify her conjectures at the treasure site and would leave if they proved wrong.
• Feng Jun told the Xuanyuan Clan that he and Yi Jue would explain their reasoning only after they reached the site.

Feng Jun and Yi Jue led the Xuanyuan Clan to a remote location in Heavenly Zither, where they discovered an Asura invasion passage that was opening years ahead of schedule. Qian Zhong challenged Yi Jue’s claim that the Spirit Plant Path had learned of the threat first, and Feng Jun argued that the Golden Crow Sect could not have known in advance.

• Feng Jun refused Xuanyuan Buqi’s question on the grounds that friends needed to trust one another, and the group traveled to Heavenly Zither’s Icefield Plane.
• Feng Jun, Yi Jue, and Xuanyuan Hulie searched the coordinates and determined that an Alternate Space passage was forming there.
• Feng Jun said the passage would have opened in three or four years without outside interference, and Yi Jue identified the Asura as the force preparing to invade Heavenly Zither.
• The group discussed how multiple Asura God Races could unite and how Heavenly Zither had faced Asura conflicts before.
• Qian Zhong questioned whether the Spirit Plant Path had been the first to discover the invasion, and Feng Jun argued that the Golden Crow Sect could not have known because it had committed forces to the Insectoid World.

Yi Jue explained that the Spirit Plant Path had discovered signs of an impending Asura invasion and located the third channel entrance, while Xuanyuan Buqi weighed the Xuanyuan Clan’s involvement. The Spirit Plant Path later offered to support him if he guarded the entrance, leaving the Xuanyuan Clan poised to take part.

• Yi Jue told Feng Jun, Qian Zhong, and Xuanyuan Buqi that the Spirit Plant Path had learned of the invasion and that two of the three channels had already been relocated.
• Xuanyuan Buqi asked whether the Spirit Plant Path would relocate or claim the third channel, and Yi Jue said she lacked authority and thought the path would share it with other forces.
• Xuanyuan Buqi asked Yi Jue to inquire about moving the entrance to a battlefield of his choosing, but she said she did not know who had moved it.
• Feng Jun and Yi Jue left for the Spirit Plant Path while Xuanyuan Buqi and Qian Zhong discussed whether their clans would join the campaign against the Asura.
• Qian Zhong warned Xuanyuan Buqi that the Chess Dao had divined the coordinates, but he said the Xuanyuan Clan would participate despite Feng Jun’s conflict with Yi Tian.
• Feng Jun and Yi Jue returned, and Yi Jue said the Spirit Plant Path would fully support Xuanyuan Buqi if he guarded the channel entrance for the cultivators of the Sky-Qin Plane.

Xuanyuan Buqi agreed to support the Spirit Plant Path’s passage and directed the Xuanyuan Clan’s efforts, while Feng Jun’s magic-treasure business shifted toward standard versions and his divination work brought new complications. The chapter ended with True Venerable Luan Xiong asking Feng Jun what had happened with Yue Yi and the occupied spatial coordinate.

• Xuanyuan Buqi decided to send an avatar to guard the passage and told Xuanyuan Hulie to gather lower-realm resources, watch the coordinate, and send more disciples to fight Asuras in the Virtual Combat System.
• Yi Jue returned to Liba Beach, and Feng Jun forged five more magic treasures before buyers from the Painting Dao helped make the standard configuration popular.
• The Mirror Spirit silently pressured Painting Dao cultivators after they complained that Feng Jun was resting following their lower-priced orders.

• True Venerable Luan Xiong visited Feng Jun to ask about Yue Yi and learn more about the spatial coordinate claimed by the Xuanyuan Clan.

True Lord Luan Xiong questioned Feng Jun about the Asura passages and the Thieving Vein, while Feng Jun and Yi Jue arranged a bounty to protect visitors to Liba Beach. In the Insectoid World, Xuan Gao secured medical supplies through Federation cooperation, and Feng Jun learned that the Federation might offer a Life Potion production line in exchange for future help.

• True Lord Luan Xiong asked Feng Jun about the coordinate, and Feng Jun explained that it led to an Asura passage into Heavenly Zither, while the Spirit Plant Path had redirected two other entrances.
• Yi Jue said the Spirit Plant Path would share its passage entrances with other cultivators, and True Lord Luan Xiong visited Xuanyuan Buqi before telling Feng Jun the Myriad Illusions Sect would send someone out in about a year.

• Xuan Gao explained that the Federation wanted Feng Jun’s civilization to treat a poisoned division commander, and Feng Jun heard that future cooperation might bring a Life Potion production line.

Feng Jun discussed cultivation and longevity with Xuan Gao, then agreed to treat the Federation hero division commander. After Xuanyuan Buqi secretly took the commander from the guarded hospital, Feng Jun returned him greatly improved, prompting Boss Zhi to contact Xuan Gao.

• Feng Jun told Xuan Gao that his people extended their lives through cultivation, while refusing to reveal how long cultivators could live.
• Feng Jun agreed to treat the hero division commander after Xuan Gao argued that it would show goodwill toward the Federation.
• Xuanyuan Buqi secretly removed the commander from the military hospital in Left Dragon City, setting off alarms and a citywide search.

• Boss Zhi contacted Xuan Gao, praised him for arranging the treatment, and said he wanted to discuss something.

• Qian Zhong told Feng Jun that surveillance on Chen Jiu and his businesses had been reduced, so Feng Jun decided to visit him.
• Feng Jun met Chen Jiu at his scrap metal recycling company and asked about the pharmaceutical production lines, but Chen Jiu said he had only recently been able to resume making inquiries.

• After an underling called Chen Jiu away, Chen Jiu returned and said Robert reported that a major figure wanted life extension on negotiable terms.
• Feng Jun replied that he had already named his price: they had to bring several production lines first.

Feng Jun rejected the Federation’s demand to verify his life-extension method before buying a Life Potion production line, insisting he could wait for its leaders to change. After he left Chen Jiu to relay his terms, a powerful man in the Federation’s core region raged over Feng Jun’s demands.

• Chen Jiu explained that the Federation wanted proof of Feng Jun’s life-extension ability before purchasing a Life Potion Production Line, but Feng Jun refused to accept a lengthy verification process.
