• Lu Ye sensed the Myriad Poison Bead’s tyrannical poison drifting through the Void, but his Heavenly Saint Dragon Guard kept it outside his body.

Lu Ye entered the Starry Sky Spectacle to find the Myriad Poison Bead, but its Poison Corpses overwhelmed him with explosive toxins. After his body lay motionless for days, a tiny emerald-green presence entered him through his nostril.

Lu Ye returned to the Outer Realm and sensed that its boundary with the Inner Realm was growing blurred, threatening the starry skies with stronger invasions.

Lu Ye and the others learned that Xuan Huai had once challenged Xiao Qianchen for control of Eternal City before joining a ten-thousand-year effort to erode the seal on a mysterious iron pillar. As Lu Ye entered Xuan Huai’s vast Grand Array, he realized its purpose was to weaken the sealing power of the Iron Pillar Divine Object.

• Mi Ye asked about Xuan Huai, and the dwarf Uniting Dao cultivator explained that Xuan Huai had been the Inner Realm’s most famous powerhouse and the only cultivator to challenge a Top Ten City Lord.
• The cultivators revealed that Xuan Huai had attacked Eternal City, where Xiao Qianchen slashed away half his face, and that Xuan Huai had maintained a Formation for ten thousand years to erode something.

• The group saw a colossal iron-pillar divine object suppressing something in the Void, and the dwarf told them to take their places in the Formation.

• Nearly ten thousand Uniting Dao cultivators helped Xuan Huai’s Grand Array break the seal on the Iron Pillar Divine Object.
• Lu Ye sensed traces like the Ancestral Abyss Restriction and concluded that the Dragon and Phoenix Ancestors had left the object behind.
• Lu Ye questioned Xuan Huai, learned he did not know what the object suppressed, and understood that the Star Abyss Will had tasked him with removing it.
• Lu Ye beheaded Xuan Huai, but realized he had killed only a Clone with fewer than a hundred Dao Bones.
• Xuan Huai roared in anger and charged toward Lu Ye with an enormous spear.

Lu Ye battled Xuan Huai, whose ten-thousand-year scheme was guided by the will of the Star Abyss, and discovered that killing him brought punishment from that will.

• Lu Ye roared with Dragon Might and attacked again, breaking Xuan Huai's locust-tree defense and driving him back as another blessing disappeared.
• Lu Ye struck Xuan Huai nearly in two, but Xuan Huai noticed Lu Ye had weakened again after losing all three blessings.

Lu Ye fought Xuan Huai while Xuan Huai used his Grand Array to grind at him, and the Star Abyss Will stirred the gathered cultivators to attack Lu Ye. Outnumbered and unable to break Xuan Huai’s defenses, Lu Ye drew a line between those who would leave and those who stayed, then charged through the crowd as Xuan Huai urged them to join forces.

• Xuan Huai urged the cultivators to join forces against Lu Ye, who charged through those remaining and struck down anyone in his path.

After killing Xuan Huai, Lu Ye lost the Star Abyss blessing and was cursed, then faced Three, a masked being who nearly killed him with one sword strike. Wounded and ambushed by Harmony Dao cultivators, Lu Ye fought his way through them and escaped, needing to heal the strange wound Three had inflicted.

• Lu Ye gathered Xuan Huai's belongings after killing him and turned toward the gathered Harmony Dao cultivators, who hesitated to attack.
• Three appeared before Lu Ye and nullified his attempt to flee before grievously wounding him with a sword strike.
• A chain dragged Three away after his attack, and the Harmony Dao cultivators seized the chance to assault the badly wounded Lu Ye.
• Lu Ye endured the barrage with his Body Protection Dao Power and Dragon Vein body until he crashed into the crowd and regained control.
• Lu Ye used Dragon Might and his saber to kill nearby attackers, then used the Void Pounce Technique to break toward the perimeter and escape.

Lu Ye escaped the Outer Realm pursuit but was forced into the Inner Realm, where the Star Abyss Will cursed him and he sought shelter to recover from San’s sword wound. As he healed in a shattered realm, a nearby Uniting Dao City tested a new Formation by firing directly at his hiding place.

• Lu Ye broke through the pursuers, but the Star Abyss Will pulled him into the Inner Realm and stripped him of his blessings before placing a curse on him.
• A masked figure named Lu used a golden fishing line to loosen the seal on the Iron Pillar Divine Object before the Star Abyss Will dragged him away.

• A Blood Race City Lord ordered an Array Master to test a newly arranged Formation on the shattered realm where Lu Ye was hiding.
• Lu Ye realized the Uniting Dao City had mistaken his shelter for a test target, and a pillar of light shot toward him.

Lu Ye escaped his shattered hiding place, then killed four pursuing cultivators, including a Blood Race City Lord, after they chased him under the influence of his curse. He attacked their Uniting Dao City, and his blows began to threaten its Protective Grand Array.

• Lu Ye fled the destruction of his hiding place as the Blood Race City Lord and three other cultivators pursued him, drawn by unnatural greed.
• Recognizing Lu Ye as the Human Race cultivator named in the Blood Lord’s bounty, the City Lord was caught by Lu Ye’s Sacred Nature and killed along with another Blood Race cultivator.

• Lu Ye struck the Grand Array again, making the defenders fear that his attacks could breach the city.

Lu Ye breached several Blood Race and Heaven-tier Uniting Dao Cities to collect Uniting Dao Pearl fragments, then realized he had landed in territory dominated by the Blood and Insect Races. While hiding and refining the fragments, he was discovered by a Flood-tier City approaching through the Void.

• Lu Ye used his Sacred Nature to weaken a Blood Race city's Protective Grand Array, breached it, killed the cultivators inside, and collected its Uniting Dao Pearl fragments.
• Lu Ye pursued and breached a nearby Heaven-tier Blood Race city, gathering more fragments before several other Uniting Dao Cities converged on him.
• Lu Ye escaped the encircling cities and spent half a day evading further pursuit while breaching three Heaven-tier Cities.
• Lu Ye hid in an asteroid and suspected Star Abyss Will had sent him into Blood Calamity's territory, where the fragment bundle's fluctuations could reveal his location.
• A warning prompted Lu Ye to use the Void Pounce Technique as a Flood-tier City destroyed the asteroid where he had been hiding.

Lu Ye struggled to escape the Insect and Blood Races’ territory while hunting for resources, but Tai Kun pursued him and proved difficult to shake. After Lu Ye wounded Tai Kun in a brief clash, Tai Kun summoned powerful allies, forcing Lu Ye to change course toward an approaching Flood-tier city.

• Lu Ye discovered that he had been exiled into Insect and Blood Race territory and fled as their cities searched for him.
• Lu Ye broke into a Blood Race Heaven-tier city, seized its Uniting Dao Pearl fragments, and escaped before the responding forces arrived.

• Tai Kun called on Flying Locust and Jade Dragonfly for help and continued pursuing Lu Ye.
• Lu Ye sensed Tai Kun still following him and changed direction toward an approaching Flood-tier city.

Lu Ye struggled to escape the Insect and Blood Races’ pursuit while wondering why Blood Calamity had not appeared. After learning of Blood Source Sea from a Blood Race city, he headed there, prompting Tai Kun and his allies to order defenses set up to keep him out.

• Lu Ye wounded Jade Dragonfly but escaped before Tai Kun could catch up, and Tai Kun told her that Blood Lord had ordered them to capture him.
• Lu Ye realized Tai Kun, Jade Dragonfly, and Flying Locust were coordinating with Uniting Dao Cities to surround him, so he decided he needed to kill one or more of them to escape.
• Lu Ye attacked a Blood Race Earth-tier city, destroyed its Uniting Dao Pearl, and forced a captive to point him toward Blood Source Sea.
• Tai Kun, Jade Dragonfly, and Flying Locust pursued Lu Ye, but he slipped through their encirclements as he continued toward Blood Source Sea.
• Jade Dragonfly recognized Lu Ye’s destination, and Tai Kun ordered defenses established around Blood Source Sea to force him to change course.

Lu Ye bypassed the Insect and Blood Races’ defenses while heading for the Blood Source Sea, forcing Flying Locust and Jade Dragonfly to intercept him. After a brief, mutually injurious clash, he escaped their pursuit and reached sight of the Blood Source Sea, where he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

• Tai Kun learned Lu Ye was deliberately heading for the Blood Source Sea and ordered Jade Dragonfly and Flying Locust to intercept him using the Hehe Realm.
• Lu Ye sensed the two City Lords ahead and charged them rather than changing course.
• Lu Ye, Flying Locust, and Jade Dragonfly exchanged attacks, injuring one another.
• Lu Ye used Void Teleportation to escape before Tai Kun could join the fight, but Flying Locust pursued him.
