Arc 68The Mirror and the Tower
Ye Lin uncovered a disturbing conflict over what was real, then honed his domain and entered the Taiyi Mysterious Immortal ruin with Liu Bai and Apocalypse. He escaped the ruin’s illusion and claimed rewards from the Heaven-Reaching Tower while Liu Bai emerged with a Golden Immortal remnant’s insights.
- The Holy Lord named Liu Bai Holy Son, and Ye Lin joined Yuexi on Fire Cloud Star to hunt Blazing Fire Beasts and obtain the True-False Pearl.
- Ye Lin killed the double-horned Blazing Fire Beast, received a bronze mirror from a dying old man, and used it to see the world as rotting flesh and maggots.
- Ye Lin traded a Heaven-Mending Pill and a flaming spear for access to the Fire Cloud Clan treasury, where he took an ancient book on simulating a world’s workings.
- Liu Bai invited Ye Lin to the Inner Sect Grand Competition, but Ye Lin realized the Liu Bai before him was an impostor and set out to find answers.
- After two strangers offered conflicting warnings, Ye Lin returned to the Firmament Sacred Land and spent a hundred years cultivating a domain that could rewrite the world’s rules.
- Ye Lin and Liu Bai traveled with Apocalypse to the Taiyi Mysterious Immortal ruin, where Ye Lin used the mirrors to question what he saw and killed the Liu Bai figures until he broke through the illusion.
- Ye Lin chose a Stellar Warboat as his Heaven-Reaching Tower reward, passed the third and fourth trials, and withdrew from the fifth rather than face three peak Earth Immortals with domain power.
- Liu Bai emerged from the Heaven-Reaching Tower with a jade-white folding fan after destroying a Golden Immortal remnant thought and gaining its insights.
