Ye Lin, Luo Yao, and Zhang Ling'er fled from Ao Yi and his pursuers after realizing the seabed put them at a severe disadvantage.

• Ye Lin refused to use the Cosmos Seal unless they faced a life-or-death crisis.
• Ye Lin consulted the map Ao Ping had given him, spotted the Falling Dragon Grotto, and changed course toward it.

Ye Lin entered Falling Dragon Grotto, trusting the map’s warning that its vengeful spirits killed only Dragon Clan members. Ao Yi and his two companions stopped pursuing him rather than risk entering the forbidden place.

Ye Lin, Zhang Ling'er, and Luo Yao braved the freezing, pitch-black waters of the Nether Sea and were attacked by Dragon Souls. Ye Lin realized the map described only one Dragon Soul, leaving him to suspect that the creatures swarming them had another origin.

Ye Lin discovered that Zhang Ling'er was destined to find an evil dragon's Dragon Ball and used the Cosmos Seal to collect the Dragon Souls in the Falling Dragon Grotto. After the Seal absorbed a terrifying quasi-Saint Dragon Soul, Ye Lin survived and continued toward the grotto's deeper opportunity.

• Ye Lin retrieved the glowing Dragon Ball and stored it in his Spatial Ring, deciding not to refine it in the grotto.
• Ye Lin left to seek a safe place to refine the Dragon Ball and saw Zhang Ling'er approaching.

Ye Lin and Zhang Ling'er hurried through the vast Nether Sea, worried that the Chaos Ancient Clan would seal Heaven Province's borders within a year. They encountered an enormous bridge absent from Ye Lin's map, and Zhang Ling'er stepped onto it while Ye Lin considered whether it had appeared suddenly.

• Ye Lin estimated that crossing the Nether Sea would take a year, and Zhang Ling'er questioned why he was concerned.
• Ye Lin explained that the Chaos Ancient Clan was expected to seal Heaven Province's borders within a year, potentially trapping them there.
• Zhang Ling'er urged Ye Lin to keep moving and trust that a solution would appear along the way.
• Ye Lin spotted a massive bridge stretching into the Nether Sea that was not shown on his map.
• Zhang Ling'er stepped onto the bridge to investigate, while Ye Lin stayed behind and considered why it was missing from the map.

Ye Lin was drawn into mysterious runes on the bridge and found himself alone in a boundless starry space. He could not contact the Spirit King or return to the secret realm, leaving him to face an unknown place on his own.

• Ye Lin followed Zhang Ling'er deeper onto the bridge and became absorbed in the mysterious runes carved into its wall.
• As Ye Lin walked, the seawater receded and the bridge vanished, while he failed to notice what was happening.
• Ye Lin suddenly came to his senses in a starry space, with Luo Yao, Ye Xin, and Zhang Ling'er gone and his connection to Ye Xin severed.
• Ye Lin tried to use his Identity Token to contact the Spirit King and enter the secret realm, but it did not work.

Ye Lin explored the vast, ruined space beyond the enormous bridge and suspected it was a low-level secret realm. He remained concerned about getting out before Heaven Province was sealed off, but trusted that Luo Yao could take him to Yun Province if necessary.

• Ye Lin put away the Identity Token and reasoned that the enormous bridge had transported him into an independent space or secret realm.
• Ye Lin decided to explore despite worrying that he might be trapped when the Chaos Ancient Clan sealed off Heaven Province, and kept the Cosmos Seal ready in case of danger.
• Ye Lin examined a vast star-filled expanse with a huge empty void and found that his divine sense could not locate its boundaries.
• Ye Lin saw only ruins as he moved through space that shattered beneath his steps, concluding that the realm was fragile and likely low-level.
• Ye Lin grew desperate to leave after finding no way out among the ruins.

Ye Lin crossed a black hole unharmed and erased it with his power, then found a mysterious Bronze Immortal Hall floating in the Starry Sky. He entered the hall and discovered familiar runes on its walls, but their meaning remained unknown.

• Ye Lin entered a massive black hole and walked through its crushing forces without being harmed.
• Ye Lin made the black hole disappear with a single strike of his hand.
• Ye Lin spotted a Bronze Immortal Hall in the void and traveled to it.
• Ye Lin examined a statue outside the hall and found it unusually hard and out of place.
• Ye Lin climbed the bronze steps with the Cosmos Seal in hand and recognized on the walls the same runes he had seen on a bridge.

Ye Lin forced open the bronze Immortal Hall’s massive doors and entered its vast interior. He reached the center and surveyed the sixty seats, matching statues, and supreme throne.

• Ye Lin realized the enormous bridge had brought him to the bronze Immortal Hall.
• Ye Lin used all his strength to open a narrow gap in the giant doors and squeezed inside.
• Ye Lin walked along the red carpet through the hall, passing jeweled bronze chairs and lifelike statues.
• Ye Lin reached the center and counted five red carpets, sixty seats, and sixty statues, with a supreme throne behind him.

Ye Lin began refining the Dragon Balls’ origin essence inside the Bronze Immortal Hall, hoping to reach the late stage of the Daluo Golden Immortal realm. As he focused on the breakthrough, the statues and furnishings around him began to stir and glow.

• Ye Lin searched the Bronze Immortal Hall but found no obvious lucky opportunity beyond its mysterious, imposing statues.
• He decided the hall was safe enough to refine the Dragon Balls and sat down with the Cosmos Seal in his palm.
• The Dragon Balls’ origin essence surged through Ye Lin’s body, making it glow as powerful laws reverberated through the hall.
• The statues began trembling and shining, while the chairs along the red carpet stirred, but Ye Lin remained unaware as he continued refining the essence.

Ye Lin absorbed the Dragon Balls' remaining origin essence and broke through to the late stage of the Daluo Golden Immortal realm. When he sat on the hall's throne, he was flooded with fragmented memories that nearly shattered his Primordial Spirit, so he fled from it.

• Ye Lin cautiously approached the throne and sat down, whereupon disjointed memories of a powerful expert flooded his mind.
• Ye Lin forced himself away from the throne before the memories could shatter his Primordial Spirit.

Ye Lin escaped the Bronze Immortal Hall after resisting memories that threatened to possess him, then returned to the Nether Sea with his cultivation advanced to the late stage of the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm.

After Ye Lin recovered from a strange experience that had lasted about one shichen, he invented an explanation involving void turbulence and continued traveling with Zhang Ling'er and the others. The group entered the Black Turtle Clan’s territory, where Ye Lin questioned how native Origin Continent beings and outsiders could coexist peacefully.

• Ye Lin asked how much time had passed, and Zhang Ling'er told him about one shichen had gone by.
• Ye Lin decided he must have passed through void turbulence and called for the group to continue their journey.

• Ye Lin considered how the Black Turtle Clan’s native experts coexisted with experts from the universe, unlike native beings in other prefectures.
• The group entered the Black Turtle Clan’s territory, and Ye Lin doubted the map’s claim that the clan was warm and hospitable.

Ye Lin and his companions traveled through the Nether Sea, where they met an enormous Black Turtle named Di Jun who offered to carry them toward the Nether Dragon Clan's border. Di Jun quoted a fee of two million jin of Great Luo Divine Source, leaving Ye Lin's group to consider his offer.

• Ye Lin observed that the Nether Sea was filled with Black Turtles and powerful auras, while its strange structures remained out of sight.
• A giant Black Turtle approached Ye Lin's group and introduced himself as Di Jun, offering to take them where they wanted to go.
• Ye Lin asked Di Jun to carry them to the Nether Sea's border, and Di Jun explained that he could only take them as far as the Nether Dragon Clan's territory.
• Di Jun offered to reach the border in a month for two million jin of Great Luo Divine Source, claiming his ride would be safe and much faster than traveling on their own.

Ye Lin hired Di Jun to transport him and his companions out of Heaven Province, and discovered that the Black Turtle Clan ran a fast passenger service across the Nether Sea. Di Jun explained that the clan’s power protected its passengers from interference.

• Ye Lin agreed to pay Di Jun two million jin, giving him a deposit of five hundred thousand jin and promising the rest upon arrival.
• Ye Lin and his companions climbed onto Di Jun’s back and took seats as the Black Turtle set off.
• Di Jun accelerated until his speed surpassed Xinyou’s, confirming that his claims about his speed were true.
• Di Jun told Ye Lin that Black Turtles transported guests for other sea clans because their speed made the work profitable.
• Di Jun explained to Zhang Ling'er that no one in the Nether Sea dared interfere with a Black Turtle carrying passengers, under threat of becoming an enemy of the Black Turtle Clan.

Di Jun carried Ye Lin and Zhang Ling'er at great speed toward a route through the Nether Dragon Clan's territory, explaining that even the powerful Black Turtle Clan avoided provoking the clan's chief, Madman. Ye Lin said he was going to Yun Province to seek the protection of a close friend who had become a Quasi-Saint.

• Di Jun assured Ye Lin that no one would dare attack him while he was on Di Jun's back.

• Di Jun said the Black Turtle Clan had to maintain good relations with other great clans and promised to take them to a weakly defended crossing.
• Di Jun asked why they risked entering the Nether Dragon Clan's territory, and Ye Lin said he planned to rely on his Quasi-Saint friend in Yun Province.
• Di Jun agreed that seeking help from a Quasi-Saint friend was worth the danger.

Ye Lin entered a memory scene after absorbing unfamiliar memories in the Bronze Immortal Hall and witnessed the Sword Dao Lord Ye Xiu facing three treacherous disciples.

• Ye Lin realized the parched, scorching world around him was a memory scene and chose to watch what unfolded.
• Ye Xiu laughed as his disciples attacked him and demanded the Bronze Immortal Hall.
• Ye Lin saw the bloodied Ye Xiu confront three figures surrounded by Great Dao laws.
• Ye Xiu condemned his disciples for killing his wife and clansmen and vowed to offer himself to the Dao to cast them into the Endless Abyss.
• The disciples claimed they had gained recognition from other Great Daos and would soon become Dao Lords.

Ye Lin awoke after sleeping for two months and resumed his journey with Zhang Ling'er toward Yun Province. Troubled by unfamiliar memories from a vivid dream about the Bronze Immortal Hall, he left Di Jun behind and headed toward the Nether Dragon Clan's territory.

• Zhang Ling'er wondered whether their safe crossing was luck, and Ye Lin told her not to overthink it.

Ye Lin reached Yun Province and learned from Wang Mingyang that its border had been sealed against the flood of people fleeing Heaven Province. Wang Mingyang urged him to sneak in through one of four dangerous routes, leaving Ye Lin to choose whether to trust him or risk paying his way across.

• Ye Lin carried Luo Yao onto dry land and began looking around Yun Province with Zhang Ling'er.
• Wang Mingyang contacted Ye Lin and warned him not to enter Yun Province through its sealed border.
• Wang Mingyang showed Ye Lin a map with four treacherous locations where he could sneak across, and offered to send people to meet him there.
• Wang Mingyang explained that Heaven Province's abandonment had been exposed and that Yun Province's residents were blocking newcomers to protect their resources and territory.
• Ye Lin understood that the Nether Dragon Clan had been fleeing, which explained why he had crossed its territory without trouble.

Ye Lin learned from Wang Mingyang that Heaven Province refugees were slipping into Yun Province through four locations before its defenses were complete. After locating the nearest crossing, Ye Lin set out with Zhang Ling'er and Luo Yao to reach it quickly.

• Wang Mingyang told Ye Lin that four regions still had incomplete defenses and warned him to blend in with the refugees crossing into Yun Province.
• Ye Lin accepted Wang Mingyang's warning and tucked away the Jade Talisman.

• Ye Lin compared Wang Mingyang's map with his Nether Sea map and located himself at Yun Province's far-left border, near one of the crossings.
• Ye Lin carried Luo Yao and left with Zhang Ling'er to reach the crossing before Yun Province completed its defenses.

Ye Lin, Zhang Ling'er, and Ye Xin joined a huge crowd of sea-race experts rushing through a canyon into Yun Province. A Heaven Province official warned that Buddha Prefecture was under martial law, but the crowd ignored him and kept going.

• Zhang Ling'er was shocked by the vast canyon and the countless experts crossing it.
• Ye Lin saw that most of the crowd were Daluo Golden Immortals, while Primordial Unity Golden Immortals struggled to endure the experts' auras.
• Ye Lin led Zhang Ling'er and Ye Xin toward the canyon's far end, noticing that every traveler belonged to the sea races.
