Chapter Summaries

Fang Yang solidified his Emperor Fall Years Dao Fruit and reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm before leaving the Heaven-Connecting Land. In the Immortal Domain, Ye Fan used the Immortal Gold Token to kill a True Immortal who insulted the Heavenly Emperor, leaving two pursuers afraid to attack or flee.

• The two surviving True Immortals suspected the token had activated on its own in response to their insults and hesitated to pursue Ye Fan as he warned them they could not escape.

Ye Fan escaped the two True Immortals in the Immortal Domain, while Fang Yang entered the Exotic Domain disguised as the reborn Red King, calling himself Fang Yin.

Fang Yang, posing as Fang Yin, joined the Exotic Domain and helped prepare its invasion of the Immortal Domain while concealing his plan to control the war’s cost. The Exotic Domain’s army reached an Immortal Domain pass, where Kun Di’s forces attacked the defenses and tried to provoke the Immortal Kings into coming out to fight.

• An Immortal from the Exotic Domain hurled insults at the Immortal Domain’s kings, but Qi Yu and the other defenders restrained themselves and stayed inside the pass.

While the Immortal Domain’s kings endured Exotic Domain taunts and waited for Butcher, the Green Emperor began ascending to the Other Shore, drawing the True World’s attention.

Fang Yang secured the Nine Netherworlds’ protection, established a Plateau for evil demons who praised the Copper Coffin Master, and prepared for his future ascent to the shore. In the Immortal Domain, Butcher’s return turned the battle against the Exotic Domain, but a dazzling Emperor Dao radiance then triggered strange transformations across both realms.

• Nine Chaos Heavenly Venerable blocked Black Heavenly Emperor from attacking Fang Yang’s newborn evil demon avatar, while Xuanming Ghost Emperor refused to help and Black Heavenly Emperor withdrew.
