He protected his disciples as three crossed into Immortality, while He Meng emerged as a Peak King-Rank Immortal and Lin Chenxing’s Path of Origin One continued to grow.

• Lin Chenxing shifted Spirit Bamboo cultivation below the Immortal level to the Origin One Universe Country and divided cultivation above that level between the Milky Way Galaxy and the country.

• Great Axe praised the Blue Star Lineage’s young powerhouses, and Lin Chenxing said their understanding of the heart helped them overcome cultivation hardships.
• Lin Chenxing asked whether the way of weapons was fundamentally the laws within weapons or the way of killing, and Great Axe asked why weapons were shaped differently if killing were their only purpose.

• Lin Chenxing and Lord of Virtual Gold passed through the Universe Membrane Wall and entered the Universe Ocean, where Lin Chenxing looked back at the Primal Universe and its faint ripples.

Lin Chenxing warned Lord of Virtual Gold that a force opposed to the Primal Universe might threaten all life, but persuaded him to continue their plans rather than panic. As they traveled toward the Universe Boat, Lord of Virtual Gold offered to stop at the Rift-Splitting Bamboo Forest so Lin Chenxing could study its bamboo.

• Lin Chenxing hinted that strange life forms with power opposite to divine power could threaten the Primal Universe, and Lord of Virtual Gold realized the danger might be real.
• Lord of Virtual Gold wanted to return and warn everyone, but Lin Chenxing argued that their teacher had likely considered the threat and that they could do little against it yet.
• Lin Chenxing and Lord of Virtual Gold set out through a route of wormholes and dangerous places toward the Universe Boat.

They arrived at a gathering place near the enormous vessel, where Human Race Universe Masters had come to meet them.

• Lin Chenxing and Lord of Virtual Gold found the Rift-Splitting Bamboo Forest in a dangerous eruption phase, with bamboo leaves tearing open space.

• Lin Chenxing and Lord of Virtual Gold arrived at a gathering place on a fragment near the Universe Boat, where more than a dozen Universe Masters, including seven from the Human Race, awaited them.

Lin Chenxing arrived in the Universe Ocean and was welcomed by Human Faction and Hong Alliance Universe Masters. Luo Feng gave him the top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure Five Sun Purgatory, and Lin Chenxing announced he intended to explore the Inner Domain, drawing a warning from Lord of Flint.

• Lin Chenxing accepted the treasure and said he now had enough equipment to venture into the Inner Domain.
• Lord of Flint cautioned Lin Chenxing that the Outer Domain was safer and warned that Alliance and Purple Moon Holy Land members still explored the Inner Domain.

Lin Chenxing chose to enter the Inner Domain with Luo Feng and headed for Flame Water Lake, where he planned to use Frozen Lake Thunder Fire to cultivate a new kind of Spirit Bamboo. He hoped the bamboo could lead to a powerful Domain-type Supreme Treasure as he continued developing his own path.

• Luo Feng recognized the potential of Lin Chenxing’s plan to produce a powerful Domain-type Supreme Treasure for the Human Race.

• Lin Chenxing and Luo Feng discussed the Purple Moon Progenitor's refusal to trade the Winged Supreme Treasure and considered destroying the Purple Moon Holy Land.
• Luo Feng brought Star Tower to carry Lin Chenxing safely into the densest Frozen Lake Thunder Fire.
• Lin Chenxing used the flames to test how Spirit Bamboos endured and changed, burning more than ten of them to crystalline ash.
• Lin Chenxing found a Spirit Bamboo that became translucent and crystal-like while remaining alive, with leaves transformed into Frozen Lake Thunder Fire.
• Lin Chenxing released the bamboo's suppressed growth, and it severed its old Bamboo Root, grew new crystal-like roots, and began forming a Spirit Bamboo Weapon.

Lin Chenxing tested how frozen lake thunder fire could transform Spirit Bamboo into weapons that slowly grew stronger, and found that Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain was improving as well. After completing his research, he left Flame Water Lake and parted ways with Luo Feng.

• Lin Chenxing discovered that frozen lake thunder fire gave Spirit Bamboo Weapons an automatic fire-releasing pattern and the potential to grow into High-grade Supreme Treasures.
• Lin Chenxing tested how much frozen lake thunder fire the bamboo could absorb and estimated that the weapons could reach High-grade Supreme Treasure status in about fifty eras and Top-tier status by the next Reincarnation Era.
• Lin Chenxing determined that the fire was gently improving Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain, which could become a Top-tier Supreme Treasure in a little over thirty eras.
• Lin Chenxing finished researching the frozen lake thunder fire and decided that exploring the Twelve Abysses with Luo Feng would not benefit him enough to justify delaying Luo Feng.
• Lin Chenxing and Luo Feng said goodbye beyond the reach of the frozen lake thunder fire and went their separate ways.

The Purple Moon Holy Land's Universe Masters decided to kill Lin Chenxing after learning he had traveled with Luo Feng, and Lord Aode secretly followed him through the Universe Boat. Lin Chenxing reached Thousand Vine Forest, where a band of Universe Master raiders had gathered.

After testing his armor against their attack, he brought out powerful treasures, leaving the bandits preparing to strike again.

• Lin Chenxing learned about the Blood-Dripping Magnolia Grove, which drained intruders’ power, and the Silver Archway, which accelerated time and consumed life force.
• Lin Chenxing entered the Thousand Vine Forest and noticed that a gang of bandits had surrounded him near the Blood-Dripping Magnolia Grove.
• The bandits attacked Lin Chenxing with a giant hammer and a barrage of Supreme Treasures, and he tested how well his Bamboo Scale Armor withstood their blows.
• Lin Chenxing brought out the Dream Rain Palace from Great Axe and the Five Sun Purgatory from Luo Feng, astonishing the bandits with his treasures.
• The bandits decided to bring out their own treasures and give Lin Chenxing an even grander welcome gift.

Lin Chenxing defeated fifteen bandit Universe Masters by combining his domains and Spirit Bamboo Weapons, then used the captured bodies to test how the Blood-Dripping Magnolia Grove reacted to law power. The experiment revealed that blood-red magnolias absorbed law power far more actively than unchanged flowers.

• The fifteen bandit Universe Masters revealed their Top-tier Supreme Treasures, and Lin Chenxing activated Dream Rain Palace, Five Sun Purgatory, and Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain against them.
• Lin Chenxing used his overlapping domains and Spirit Bamboo Weapons to separate and defeat the fifteen Universe Masters, leaving some dead and the rest injured.

After learning that Lin Chenxing had defeated fifteen Third-Order Universe Masters, the Purple Moon Holy Land sent a force of powerful Universe Masters to hunt him. Meanwhile, Lin Chenxing investigated how the Blood-Dripping Magnolia absorbed life force and used what he learned to modify the Bamboo Roots throughout Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain.

• Lord Aode reported Lin Chenxing's victory to the Purple Moon Holy Land, estimating that killing or enslaving him would require several Fifth-Order Universe Masters or a stronger force.
• The Purple Moon Holy Land decided to send five Fifth-Order and four Fourth-Order Universe Masters toward the Thousand Vine Forest.
• Lin Chenxing tested the Blood-Dripping Magnolia by placing a dying suppressed Universe Master among the flowers and sensing how they drained life force.
• Lin Chenxing traced the life force through the vines to the Thousand Vine Forest's Core Region, where Secret Patterns processed it, but the patterns destroyed his mental probe.
• Lin Chenxing used a newly propagated bamboo shoot to alter the Bamboo Roots throughout Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain, giving them a basic ability to process life force.

Lin Chenxing prepared for the nine Universe Masters from Purple Moon Holy Land Universe to attack, using his domains, Spirit Bamboo Weapons, and Dream Rain Palace to meet them. As they fought their way toward him, he unleashed his Return to One technique with a spear, ending the chapter as he thrust at a fifth-level powerhouse.

• Lin Chenxing felt Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain advance past 80% of the way to becoming a Top-tier Supreme Treasure and prepared to travel to the Silver Archway.

He repeatedly struck isolated Fourth-Order opponents while keeping the Fifth-Order Masters at bay, as Luo Feng and the others hurried to join him.

• A Fifth-Order Universe Master deflected Lin Chenxing’s attack, so Lin Chenxing decided to hold the stronger enemies off while targeting Fourth-Order Universe Masters.
• Lin Chenxing poured his life force into Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain, linking all its Spirit Bamboo and raising it to the ranks of Top-tier Supreme Treasures.
• Lin Chenxing transformed the mountain into the Immeasurable Bamboo Spear and used Dream Rain Palace to approach an isolated Fourth-Order Universe Master.
• The spear’s tassel threads restrained the target and battered his palace, allowing Lin Chenxing to injure him and destroy nearly ten percent of his Divine Body.
• Lin Chenxing alternated between the spear and the mountain’s domain to attack isolated Fourth-Order Masters and block the Purple Moon Holy Land forces, who could not catch him before the Human Race experts arrived.

Lin Chenxing used Dream Rain Palace and the mist of Immeasurable Bamboo Mountain to conceal his clones while the Purple Moon Holy Land’s Universe Masters tried to trap him. He revealed the clones during their attack, turning their planned ambush into a battle they could not finish before they had to withdraw.

• The nine Universe Masters from the Purple Moon Holy Land agreed to protect their Fourth-Order fighters with overlapping support and attack Lin Chenxing before reinforcements arrived.
