Chapter Summaries

Lu Ye used the Bone Ocarina to lure Dancing Maiden across the battlefield, forcing every fighter into its singing and dancing influence and giving his side a chance to turn the battle around. After Dancing Maiden left with the ocarina, Lu Ye returned to attack Bai Jin, but even with Li Shang’s help he struggled to pierce the Sunlight’s formidable body.

• Lu Ye led Dancing Maiden through the remaining Blood Seas until it affected every fighter on the battlefield, preventing both sides from continuing their battle.
• Dancing Maiden chased Lu Ye after he put away the Bone Ocarina, so he gave it to the star beast, which then departed.
• Lu Ye used a controlled artifact to return to the six dancing Sunlights, and Luo Xie urged him to kill Bai Jin and the two Insect Race Sunlights.
• Lu Ye struck Bai Jin with the Crag Mountain Saber, but the slash only caused a small wound because Bai Jin could not activate Magic Power yet had an exceptionally strong physique.
• Lu Ye called on Li Shang to use the Soul Attachment Technique and struck Bai Jin again, but Bai Jin dismissed the injury and said his body could easily heal it.

Lu Ye killed the Sunlight Bai Jin by using Sacred Nature and Great Windmill, but the technique left him badly injured and unable to keep fighting. After recovering enough to move, he sought out Li Guan, the strongest killer among Ning Bu'ao's group.

• Lu Ye used Fang's power to keep Bai Jin's wounds from healing, then trapped him in a blood sphere and suppressed him with Sacred Nature.
• Lu Ye unleashed Green Mantis's Great Windmill, repeatedly slashing Bai Jin until he beheaded him.
• Lu Ye's body was badly damaged by Great Windmill, leaving him unable to continue attacking as the remaining Sunlights stayed dangerous.
• After several dozen breaths, Lu Ye recovered enough to move and asked Ning Bu'ao's group who had the strongest killing power.
• Ning Bu'ao named Li Guan, and Lu Ye rushed to her and placed a palm on her shoulder.

Lu Ye used the Talent Tree’s power to burn away the Dancing Maiden’s influence on Li Guan, allowing her to kill an Insect Race Sunlight. He then began freeing Ning Bu'ao while the Blood Race Sunlights realized their four-hundred-year plot was collapsing.

• Lu Ye warned Li Guan that burning away the Dancing Maiden’s power might hurt, then used the Talent Tree to restore her ability to move.
• Li Guan broke free, thanked Lu Ye, and killed one of the Insect Race Sunlights with a sword strike.
• Luo Xie and Ning Bu'ao both asked Lu Ye to free them, and Lu Ye went to help Ning Bu'ao first because he was closer.
• The Blood Race Sunlights watched in panic as Ning Bu'ao began to regain control, leaving them helpless targets.
• The Blood Race Sunlights recalled how their races had spent four hundred years arranging to seize Unfixed and the Four Directions Star System, only for Lu Ye’s arrival to ruin their plans.

Lu Ye helped free Ning Bu'ao and Luo Xie from the Dancing Maiden's power, allowing them and Li Guan to defeat the Blood Race and Insect Race forces. After the battle, the surviving Sunlights concluded that Bai Jin's plot had begun in Quiet Moon, where more hidden Blood Race members might remain.

• Li Guan, Ning Bu'ao, and Luo Xie swept across the battlefield and killed the remaining Insect Race and Blood Race cultivators.
• Lu Ye returned to the warship injured and told the others to wait for the Dancing Maiden's influence to fade; he also noticed that Yaya had been unaffected.
• The three Sunlights mourned the Allied Army's losses and credited Lu Ye with saving the survivors and the Four Directions Star System.
• Li Guan, Luo Xie, and Ning Bu'ao reasoned that Bai Jin's arrival in Quiet Moon over four hundred years earlier had begun the plot, and that more Blood Race members could still be hiding there.

After the battle, Lu Ye discovered that a Blood Race member was still hiding among the survivors from the Quiet Moon Star System. The woman surnamed Feng died when Li Guan struck her, and her corpse revealed its true form only after Lu Ye removed a blood-red pendant from her necklace.

• Ning Bu'ao set out to inform Quiet Moon of the Blood Race threat and Northern Profound of Chen Zong's death.
• The surviving cultivators spent two days recovering remains and clearing the battlefield, while Luo Xie and Li Guan thanked Lu Ye for saving them.
• Lu Ye recognized the woman surnamed Feng, a Quiet Moon cultivator, as a suspected Blood Race member and asked Luo Xie to kill her.
• Li Guan struck Feng down, but her corpse initially retained its human appearance, making the group think Lu Ye had been mistaken.
• Lu Ye removed Feng's heart-shaped pendant, and her corpse transformed into its Blood Race form.

• Yaya ran into the hall and sat in Lu Ye's arms, drawing the Sunlight Realm cultivators' curious attention.

After Lu Ye killed Bai Jin, Qin Yi visited him to thank him for avenging her late husband, Chen Zong, and gave him a Soul Treasure and a token granting him authority over Northern Profound cultivators.

• Qin Yi visited Lu Ye to thank him and praised his potential, comparing it favorably to Chen Zong’s.
• Li Guan, Luo Xie, and Shi Hanqing brought Lu Ye to examine about twenty thousand cultivators from Quiet Moon Star System, and he identified a dozen hidden Blood Race members.
• After five days of hospitality, the fleet departed with cultivators from Four Directions Star System, including four Moonlight Realm Late Stage cultivators and a thousand Star Constellation cultivators.
• Lu Ye found ten million spirit jade in the Xie Li given by Jiang Shang and considered distributing it among the expedition’s cultivators.
• Luan Xiao'e urged Lu Ye not to offer spirit jade to the Azure Dawn Dao Realm and Jade Snail Realm cultivators, so he entrusted the distribution to the Sect Master for the Nine Provinces cultivators.

As the fleet traveled through the Barren Starfield toward the Myriad Phenomena Sea, Lu Ye advised the Four Directions Star System’s cultivators and sold Luo Xie battle formation plates. He also asked Luo Xie to guide Luan Xiao'e on advancing to the Sunlight Realm, leaving her grateful for Lu Ye’s care.

• Lu Ye repeatedly challenged Wang Xiu using different techniques and inheritances, but each attempt ended in his death.
• Lu Ye stopped trying to solve the strike for the moment and cultivated with Lingyu while deducing Spiritual Patterns through the Talent Tree.

Lu Ye led the fleet through the Mist Dragon using a burning Cycle Tree Clone, but Yaya sensed something within it and ran off, prompting Lu Ye to pursue her. Guided by Yaya and the glow of her Jade Bracelet, he found an identical bracelet hidden in the mist.

• Lu Ye lit a Cycle Tree Clone and led the five linked Star Boats into the Mist Dragon while Luo Xie learned that the torch came from the Cycle Tree.
• After several days in the mist, Yaya sensed something ahead and leapt from the Star Boat, so Lu Ye pursued her and told the fleet to continue to the Insect Path.

• Yaya's Jade Bracelet began glowing in response to a matching light deeper in the mist.
• Yaya reached into the space before them and retrieved a Jade Bracelet identical to the one she wore.

Lu Ye recovered Yaya’s second Jade Bracelet in the Mist Dragon, then found his way to the Insect Path and entered Long Cloud with Fan Li. He gave Fan Li a piece of the Cycle Tree Clone in exchange for goodwill as the fleet prepared to travel through the star system.

• Yaya found her lost Jade Bracelet in the Mist Dragon, put it on, and fell asleep as Lu Ye carried her back.

• Fan Li explained that he needed the Clone to explore a Secret Realm in Long Cloud with an environment like the Mist Dragon.

Lu Ye and the Four Directions fleet secured passage through the Long Cloud Star System and crossed its Insect Path into the Myriad Phenomena Star System. As the cultivators celebrated their arrival at Myriad Phenomena Sea, Lu Ye worried after hearing that something had happened to Peerless Island.

• Luo Xie revealed that Fan Li had demanded a toll of five thousand Lingyu per person, but they agreed that the fleet could borrow passage through Long Cloud in the future by giving notice.

• Lu Ye and the fleet passed through the Insect Path into the Myriad Phenomena Star System, where the cultivators celebrated their arrival at Myriad Phenomena Sea while Lu Ye remained concerned about Peerless Island.

He learned that it had been renamed Heavenly Evolution Island and realized a force from the same star system had taken it, while Chu Shen and Tang Jun remained unaccounted for.

• You Ling revealed that she had advanced to the Moon Jade Realm, but Lu Ye's saber attacks overwhelmed her expectations and left her questioning her strength.

• You Ling fought Lu Ye and realized his strength let him contend with an ordinary Moon Jade Realm cultivator, though she could not safely defeat him without injuring him.
