Chapter Summaries

Myriad Heavens Divine Sect worried that Elder Wang’s death would weaken its deterrence and leave it vulnerable to other major sects, so its leaders resolved to recruit Daluo Golden Immortals. Ye Lin secured his mapped territories and learned that visitors had gathered at Xuanyuan Peak to seek management rights.

• A senior elder warned that Myriad Heavens Divine Sect needed to recruit at least one Daluo Golden Immortal before news of Elder Wang’s death spread in three years.
• The sect’s Daluo Golden Immortals agreed to take the recruitment effort seriously, fearing other powers would divide their territory.
• Su Xin reported that Ye Lin had taken all the territories marked on the map and that they offered him more resources than other Daluo Golden Immortals received.
• Xia Nu told Ye Lin that visitors were waiting at Xuanyuan Peak to pay their respects and apply to manage the territories.

Ye Lin returned to Xuanyuan Peak and dismissed complaints about Luo Yao’s unruly adventures. He then heard subordinate factions’ requests to manage newly claimed territory, beginning with the Heavenly Sword Sect’s bid for the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range.

• Ye Lin returned to Xuanyuan Peak, where experts had gathered to meet him.
• Spring Maiden and Autumn Maiden told Ye Lin that merchants had complained about Luo Yao’s disruptive antics.
• Ye Lin dismissed the complaints and let Luo Yao continue playing, while the gathered experts entered the hall and knelt before him.
• Ye Lin asked which territories the experts wanted to manage, and the Heavenly Sword Sect requested the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range and offered him a tribute.

Ye Lin divided the available territories among powerful groups in return for most of their resources, then withdrew to cultivate. He reflected on how slowly Daluo Golden Immortals advanced and how vulnerable Heavenly March Prefecture remained to powerful arrivals from the Boundary Sea.

• A middle-aged man offered Ye Lin a Spatial Ring and proposed that the Heavenly Sword Sect manage the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range in exchange for ninety percent of its Seven-Colored Stone proceeds.

• Ye Lin ordered his four maidservants to secretly monitor and manage the new territories.
• Ye Lin entered a secret chamber to cultivate and lamented how slowly Daluo Golden Immortals advanced.

Ye Lin checked the luck he gained from killing a Daluo Golden Immortal and found that the panel store’s prices were far beyond his means. He set aside thoughts of buying anything and began cultivating with Golden Zenith Heaven Divine Source.

• Ye Lin checked his panel and saw that his luck had risen to 630 billion, with 290 billion available as Store Luck Value.
• Ye Lin browsed the Daluo Golden Immortal store and found that even its puppets and treasures cost far more than he could afford.
• Ye Lin closed the store, complained about its prices, and decided to wait for circumstances to change.
• Ye Lin began absorbing Golden Zenith Heaven Divine Source and found that his Chaos Sword Body converted it even more efficiently than chaos qi.

After three years of cultivation and expansion, Ye Lin’s sect learned that the Supreme Heavenly Palace had been weakened by a defection and began considering the upheaval in Heavenly March Prefecture. The Myriad Heavens Divine Sect’s ancestor insisted Ye Lin be included in the emergency meeting, and Tang Feng went to invite him.

• Ye Lin looked to Tang Feng for an explanation, but Tang Feng shook his head, leaving Ye Lin confused about the Supreme Heavenly Palace’s downfall.

Ye Lin realized that something had gone wrong in the Supreme Heavenly Palace as the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect debated attacking it. The meeting shifted when Laozi revealed that a Quasi-Saint and more than a dozen Great Luo cultivators had arrived from the Boundary Sea, leaving the sect wary of their plans.

• Ye Lin concluded that Wang Wu had given him fifteen million jin of Great Luo Divine Source because something had gone wrong in the Supreme Heavenly Palace.

• An elderly Great Luo cultivator warned that other factions in Heavenly March Prefecture were also preparing to act.
• Laozi revealed that a Quasi-Saint and more than a dozen Great Luo cultivators had arrived from the Boundary Sea, apparently intending to replace the Supreme Heavenly Palace.

• The creature claimed the Chaos Ancient Clan only intended to control the Supreme Heavenly Palace’s territory, but the gathered Great Luo immortals rejected the claim with suspicion.

Ye Lin entered the looted Supreme Heavenly Palace and found more than twenty Daluo Golden Immortals nearly killing one opponent, then heard someone demand the right to finish him personally.

• Wutu argued that the Supreme Clarity Sect’s Saint ancestor had been badly injured in the ancient war and might be nearing death.
