After waking from a nap thousands of years long, Ye Lin discovered that no one else had advanced to the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm and found that the Heavenly Dao had allowed a grave threat to persist. He entered the River of Time to intervene, joined by the Sword Venerable and Sky Vault, and arrived in a world crowded with Aberration creatures and nine Primordial Unity Golden Immortal evil beings.

• Ye Lin stood in a gloomy world filled with Aberration creatures, demons, devils, ghosts, monsters, and nine Primordial Unity Golden Immortal evil beings.

Ye Lin confronted the Aberrations and monsters that the Heavenly Dao had freed to replace the living beings of the Star River Cosmos. He revealed the Heavenly Dao’s purge plan and stood ready to kill them.

Ye Lin confronted the Aberrations after discovering Heavenly Dao’s plan to let them prey on the Star River Cosmos, and refused their demands that he leave. Sword Venerable and Sky Vault arrived with reinforcements, leaving the Aberrations facing a group of seven Primordial Unity Golden Immortals.

• Sword Venerable and Sky Vault arrived with three Primordial Unity Golden Immortals of the Phoenix Clan and two of the Dragon Clan.
• The Aberrations were startled that Heavenly Dao had allowed the seven reinforcements to come.

• The battle shattered the river of time and disrupted the laws of heaven and earth, frightening powerful cultivators across the Star River Cosmos.
• The Heavenly Dao watched without helping either side, recognizing that Ye Lin’s intervention had likely prevented the Aberrations from destroying the remaining sentient beings.

Ye Lin overwhelmed the Aberration in the River of Time, then used acquired-grade techniques and revealed his Chaos Sword Body. The Aberration recognized the techniques as impossible for the Star River Cosmos and demanded to know who Ye Lin’s master was.

• The Aberration complained that Ye Lin was far stronger than it had expected as he continued to suppress it.
• Ye Lin mocked the Aberration and attacked it with Sword Qi, which vanished before it could cause substantial harm.

• Ye Lin revealed his Chaos Sword Body, and the Aberration cursed in shock and demanded to know who his master was.

Ye Lin used his Chaos Sword Body and sword techniques to pursue a powerful Aberration, but its superior cultivation let it evade his attacks. He trapped it in a sword formation and tried to sever its karma, but the Aberration remained unharmed.

• The Aberration offered to tell Ye Lin about the Boundary Sea if he spared it, but Ye Lin rejected the offer and kept attacking.

• The Aberrations struggled as its consciousness scattered and its life force faded.

Ye Lin and the surrounding figures used the God-Binding Curse and God-Slaying Curse to weaken the peak Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Aberrations, then Ye Lin struck it with the Emperor Sword. After ten years, the Aberrations vanished into ash, ending a threat that had lasted more than ten thousand epochs.

• The figures activated the God-Binding Curse and then the God-Slaying Curse against the Aberrations.

• An old man greeted Ye Lin and revealed himself as the last-ranked guardian who had stopped many challengers.
• Ye Lin attacked with a casual Sword Qi strike, but the old man raised a hand and shattered it before retreating.

• Primordial Unity Golden Immortals discussed how far Ye Lin might climb and whether he could reach first place.
• Ye Lin climbed to ninety-eighth place and then, an hour later, reached ninetieth place, astonishing the watching immortals.
