Chapter Summaries

Key plot points

• Liu Chengfeng’s effort succeeds: the unlit Primordial Sequence hangs on the tree, which may have room for many more Sequences. The Faceless Stone Statue calls it an ancient, “most complete form,” but refuses to explain further.
• Liu opens the Golden Bottle and releases the Ancient One, a mighty golden rhinoceros beetle. Despite his grand claims, the Ancient One is terrified of the Endbound Ultimate Fiends lurking nearby.
• The Ancient One recognizes Liu and reacts with shock, addressing him as “Immortal Master” before cautiously correcting himself. He will not explain why he knows Liu, saying the matter cannot be spoken of.
• Liu learns that the fiends may be his “ultimate calamity,” though the Ancient One cannot say why. Liu then asks to be taken to the Infinite Hall, a legendary place said to preserve the body through time and grant boundless life.
• The Ancient One says no one has ever reached or entered the Hall. He searched for it himself and sent expeditions into the Rebirth Death World, where traces of past visitors remain. Though he cannot take Liu there directly, he believes Liu can use his boat to follow those traces and find it.

Character developments and interactions

• Liu Chengfeng is pleased by his success but remains inquisitive and wary. He notices the Ancient One’s sudden deference and suspects he is withholding information, yet does not force him to reveal it.

• The Faceless Stone Statue and Yellow Sand Woman remain withdrawn and secretive, offering only a brief explanation of the Sequence’s significance.
• Liu and the Ancient One’s conversation is marked by Liu’s probing questions and the Ancient One’s mix of flattery, evasions, and reluctant disclosures.

• The Yellow Sand Woman and the Faceless Stone Statue reveal the cause: they release the enormous accumulation of wishes, prayers, vows, and karma connected to Liu Chengfeng’s divine vow.

  • Cultivate with the image of the First Divine Emperor of All Ages

• Liu Chengfeng then enters Su Nianyu’s karmic scene while she is fighting through one of her deaths. He flirts with her and kisses her, distracting her long enough for Death to exploit the opening.

• Inspired by the Fortune-Bringing Path and the mortal power of greed, Liu Chengfeng begins considering how to create new Immortal Bodies and strengthen his existing ones.
• His cultivation advances rapidly. The ninth heavens of his Four God Treasuries repeatedly fill with power, automatically granting Sequences and pushing him to the fourth stage of the Nine Harmonies True God realm.
• Liu Chengfeng then attempts to break into the Dou Shu True God realm, which requires expanding the ninth heavens of all four God Treasuries to ten times their current size.
