• Ye Lin entered his cultivation chamber and resumed secluded cultivation.
• Heavenly March Prefecture experienced fifty years without any major events or conflict between Daluo Golden Immortals.
• Wang Zifu, still afraid Ye Lin would kill him, decided to leave the Origin Continent.

Wang Zifu abandoned his attempt to escape into the Boundary Sea after discovering Chaos Ancient Clan forces besieging the Origin Continent, and he fled toward Long River Prefecture instead. The Chaos Ancient Clan prepared to invade Heavenly March Prefecture once reinforcements arrived, while its inhabitants frantically mined resources in anticipation of war.

• Wang Zifu saw countless Chaos Ancient Clan powerhouses entrenched beyond the Origin Continent and realized Heavenly March Prefecture was sealed off.

• A Chaos Ancient Clan Quasi-Sage told his forces to wait for reinforcements before invading Heavenly March Prefecture and conquering the Origin Continent.
• The Quasi-Sages and Daluo Golden Immortals in Heavenly March Prefecture recognized the threat and ordered their subordinates to mine resources.
• The living beings of the Origin Continent set aside cultivation and began extracting resources as quickly as they could.

Su Xin ordered the sects to mine resources after learning that other Daluo Golden Immortals were doing the same, and concluded they were preparing to flee from the Chaos Ancient Clan. He worked to prove his value to Elder Ye, while the other cultivators competed to gather resources, and he claimed their efforts as his own achievements.

• Su Xin asked whether there was any word from Elder Ye, and the young man shook his head.

• Su Xin decided he had to demonstrate his value to earn Elder Ye's protection and personally arranged the resource gathering.
• The cultivators competed to deliver ever more resources, while Su Xin recorded them and regarded their efforts as his own achievements.

After emerging from twenty years of seclusion, Ye Lin learned that the major factions had abandoned their territories and that the Chaos Ancient Clan would attack Heavenly March Prefecture in three years. He kept his remaining Fortune Value in reserve and joined the gathered cultivators as they prepared for the coming conflict.

• Ye Lin ended his seclusion, having spent another two hundred billion Fortune Value on a Vermilion Bird Sacred Pill while remaining just short of the mid stage of Daluo Golden Immortal.

• Ye Lin praised Su Xin, then went to Qingcang Peak to learn what had happened.
• A report announced that the Chaos Ancient Clan would attack Heavenly March Prefecture in three years and that Long River Prefecture had begun sending reinforcements.

Ye Lin and the other powerhouses of Myriad Heavens Divine Sect were ordered to stay in Heavenly March Prefecture and face the Chaos Ancient Clan’s invasion three years later. When the enemy arrived, the ancestor led them out to meet the attack.

• The ancestor told Ye Lin and the assembled powerhouses to remain and fight the Chaos Ancient Clan when it invaded in three years.
• The five remaining Dao Fruit Da Luo feared they were being sent to their deaths, while Ye Lin looked forward to gaining Luck Value from the battle.
• Three years passed, and Ye Lin sensed the Chaos Ancient Clan’s arrival as the ancestor prepared for a difficult fight.
• The ancestor ordered everyone to meet the enemy, and Ye Lin and the five Dao Fruit Da Luo left the hall to follow him.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng watched the Chaos Ancient Clan and the cosmic races begin a strangely orderly battle on the Origin Continent. As fallen Primordial Unity Golden Immortals vanished and the quasi-saints remained silent, Ye Lin suspected the battle concealed another purpose.

• Ye Lin saw Chaos Ancient Clan experts facing the cosmic races, whose ranks had been reinforced from Long River Prefecture.
• The two sides sent their Primordial Unity Golden Immortals into battle, prompting Ye Lin and Tang Feng to wonder why the fighting seemed staged and orderly.
• Primordial Unity Golden Immortals began dying in increasing numbers as the quasi-saints watched without reacting.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng noticed that the fallen fighters' corpses vanished, and Ye Lin questioned what the leaders were plotting.
• Ye Lin doubted that the Chaos Ancient Clan truly intended to seize Heavenly March Prefecture, since they could have launched a direct assault.

Ye Lin watched the battle between the universe races and the Chaos Ancient Clan escalate, then saw a blood-red doorframe emerge from beneath the ground. The experts realized their deaths had been used to summon it, and a Chaos Ancient Clan quasi-saint killed more Dao Fruit Great Luos to make it rise further.

• The Dao Fruit Great Luos of both sides entered the battle, and every Primordial Unity Golden Immortal who had fought earlier was wiped out.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng sensed something was wrong and quietly retreated as Law Great Luo-level fighters advanced without the universe races responding.
• The ground split open, forcing the advancing Chaos Ancient Clan experts to retreat as a blood-red doorframe rose halfway from beneath the earth.
• The Dao Fruit Great Luos realized that the doorframe had been summoned with their blood and that it had not yet fully emerged.
• A Chaos Ancient Clan quasi-saint crushed countless Dao Fruit Great Luos and smeared their blood across the doorframe, making it rise inch by inch.

The Quasi-Saints opened Asura Purgatory, a sealed space where they could fight without destroying Heavenly March Prefecture, and disappeared inside. Ye Lin learned that opening it required the blood of many living beings, and the chapter ended as the Law Zenith Heavens’ battle began.

• The Quasi-Saints used the blood of Dao Fruit Zenith Heavens and Primordial Unity Golden Immortals to reveal the blood-red gate frame of Asura Purgatory.
• A Chaos Ancient Clan Quasi-Saint announced that Asura Purgatory had opened, while the ancestor told Ye Lin and three others to retreat to Long River Prefecture if they could not win.
• The Chaos Ancient Clan and cosmic race Quasi-Saints entered the gate frame and vanished into its independent world.
• Tang Feng explained to Ye Lin that every great prefecture had an Asura Purgatory, which required vast amounts of blood to open and could contain Quasi-Saint battles.
• The Law Zenith Heavens began fighting as Ye Lin sensed that something about the situation felt wrong.

As the Chaos Ancient Clan’s law-based Daluo Golden Immortals charged, Ye Lin chose a seemingly weak Flood Dragon as his target to preserve his strength and gain luck value. The creature, calling himself Dragon Emperor, fled when Ye Lin attacked, leaving Ye Lin in pursuit.

• Ye Lin summoned Azure Frost and the Godslayer Sword, examined the opponents’ luck values, and decided to target a weaker enemy rather than risk fighting the peak Daluo Golden Immortals.
• The Chaos Ancient Clan’s experts charged, and the two sides’ law-based Daluo Golden Immortals began fighting fearlessly.
• Ye Lin attacked a Flood Dragon whose panel showed only 20 billion luck value, despite its imposing appearance and aura.
• The Flood Dragon called himself Dragon Emperor, laughed at Ye Lin, then immediately fled and shouted for Ye Lin to stop chasing him.

Ye Lin hunted weaker Chaos Ancient Clan fighters on the battlefield, killing Dragon Emperor and easing pressure on his allies. After three hours and five Daluo Golden Immortal kills, he drew the attention of a Chaos Ancient Clan expert who challenged him.

• Dragon Emperor tried to flee Ye Lin, but Ye Lin struck him with the Grand Void Space-Rending Sword and killed him, gaining twenty billion Luck Value.
• Ye Lin moved through the battlefield, targeting weaker Chaos Ancient Clan experts and helping relieve pressure on the other fighters.
• Over three hours, Ye Lin killed five Daluo Golden Immortals.
• A Chaos Ancient Clan expert confronted Ye Lin and offered to fight him.

Ye Lin faced Lin Zhen, a peak Daluo Golden Immortal of the Chaos Ancient Clan, and was badly injured by his first punch. Lin Zhen launched his second attack as Ye Lin countered with the Grand Void Space-Rending Sword, leaving their clash unresolved.

• Lin Zhen confronted Ye Lin and declared that he would kill him in three punches.
• Lin Zhen vanished and struck Ye Lin, shattering his internal organs and shaking his Primordial Spirit.
• Ye Lin retreated into the void and spat blood, recognizing Lin Zhen's overwhelming speed and strength.
• Lin Zhen praised Ye Lin for surviving the first punch and warned that the second was coming.
• Ye Lin unleashed the Grand Void Space-Rending Sword at Lin Zhen, who dismissed the attack as insufficient.

Lin Zhen overwhelmed Ye Lin in combat, forcing him to flee toward Long River Prefecture. Lin Zhen pursued him and planned to kill him at the prefecture’s border.

• Lin Zhen shattered Ye Lin’s Sword Qi with a punch and sent him flying with another attack.
• Ye Lin realized he could not survive another blow and fled from Lin Zhen.
• Lin Zhen disappeared into space and pursued Ye Lin at greater speed.
• Ye Lin considered seeking Luo Yao but kept running because he did not know where she was and feared being caught.
• Ye Lin sped toward Long River Prefecture, while Lin Zhen anticipated his destination and vowed to kill him at its border.

Lin Zhen pursued Ye Lin to a mountain cave near the border of Long River Prefecture and Heavenly March Prefecture, confident that Ye Lin’s trap could not harm him. After entering the cave, Lin Zhen struck at the magma blocking the exit and suddenly lost sensation in his hand.

• Lin Zhen chased Ye Lin while admiring the scenery and planning to suppress him at the border between the two prefectures.
• Ye Lin stopped in midair, then descended into a mountain range, leading Lin Zhen to follow him into a newly opened cave.
• Lin Zhen entered the cave and saw a vast space surrounded by magma as Ye Lin shot out of the entrance.
• Lin Zhen tried to seize Ye Lin, but flames blocked the cave entrance, and his punch passed through the magma, leaving him unable to feel his hand.

Ye Lin trapped Lin Zhen in the magma-filled cave and waited for the Lava Monster to finish him, then entered to investigate when no one emerged. He found the magma had receded around a motionless stone statue, leaving Lin Zhen’s fate uncertain.

• Lin Zhen cut off his arm after the magma began corroding it, then discovered it also damaged his acquired spirit treasure spear.
• Lin Zhen took out a jade box as the magma closed in around him.
• Ye Lin waited outside the cave for five hours while recovering and preparing to face Lin Zhen.
• Ye Lin entered the cave with the Godslayer Sword, Azure Frost, and Heaven-Shaking Bell, remaining alert for Lin Zhen.
• Ye Lin used the Godslayer Sword to part the magma and found a silent stone statue at the cave’s center.

Ye Lin’s clone tricked Lin Zhen into believing Ye Lin was dead, then kicked the Godslayer Sword away and left Lin Zhen trapped with the Lava Monster. Ye Lin later entered the cave, retrieved the sword, and left after Lin Zhen died.

• Ye Lin approached Lin Zhen’s stone form and slashed it, revealing Lin Zhen hiding inside.
• Lin Zhen punched through Ye Lin’s chest, but Ye Lin kicked the Godslayer Sword away before Lin Zhen could take it.
• Ye Lin’s apparent body vanished, revealing that it had been a clone, and the enraged Lava Monster attacked Lin Zhen.
• Lin Zhen blasted the Lava Monster apart repeatedly, but the lava melted him until a blood-red flash ended his final life and granted Ye Lin 150 billion luck points.
• Ye Lin entered the cave, retrieved the Godslayer Sword, and left, reflecting that his true body would have fallen for Lin Zhen’s trap.

After killing the peak Daluo Golden Immortal and earning 150 billion fate points, Ye Lin found that the Chaos Ancient Clan had taken Heavenly March Prefecture. He rescued Luo Yao and fled to Long River Prefecture, where Zhang Fengtian asked him about the situation.

• Ye Lin sealed the cave after killing the Lava Monster’s opponent, then left for the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect.
• Ye Lin found the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect occupied by the Chaos Ancient Clan and concluded the battle had been lost.
• Ye Lin found Luo Yao fleeing with Xinyou and killed the three Chaos Ancient Clan pursuers.
• Ye Lin took Luo Yao away from Heavenly March Prefecture and traveled to Long River Prefecture.
• Zhang Fengtian recognized Ye Lin as the Deputy City Lord of Heavenly Capital City and asked about Heavenly March Prefecture, and Ye Lin told him it had been occupied by the Chaos Ancient Clan.

Ye Lin entered Long River Prefecture with Luo Yao and made his way to Heavenly Capital City, where he reunited with Chu Qinxin. He learned that the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect’s Ancestor had died in battle and went with Chu Qinxin to meet the city’s three lords to establish his identity.

• Ye Lin left Zhang Fengtian and carried Luo Yao into Long River Prefecture, where he asked directions to Heavenly Capital City.
• Ye Lin reached the enormous city, set Luo Yao down to explore, and entered with her.
• Chu Qinxin recognized Ye Lin and explained that she and the others had thought he died after the battle, then came to Heavenly Capital City ahead of him.
• Chu Qinxin told Ye Lin that the three city lords would establish his identity and confirmed that the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect’s Ancestor had died in battle.
• Ye Lin took Luo Yao by the hand and followed Chu Qinxin to meet the three city lords.

Ye Lin followed Chu Qinxin to meet the three City Lords of Heavenly Capital City, where he discovered that their residence held more than a thousand universes. The City Lords appointed him the sixteenth Deputy City Lord and gave him a residence and command of the Eighth City Defense Army, and Chu Qinxin took him to his new home.

• Ye Lin entered the City Lords’ residence with Chu Qinxin and saw countless spheres that were each independent universes.
• Chu Qinxin introduced Ye Lin to the three City Lords and explained his background in the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect.
• The City Lord on the left verified Ye Lin’s Identity Token and appointed him the sixteenth Deputy City Lord of Heavenly Capital City.
• The City Lords granted Ye Lin Xuanyuan Residence, command of the Eighth City Defense Army, and a Deputy City Lord’s mark.
• Ye Lin took Luo Yao’s hand and followed Chu Qinxin to his residence.

Ye Lin moved into a residence provided by Chu Qinxin, but its servants and a familiar fragrance made him suspect something was wrong. After finding nothing suspicious in a maidservant’s memories, he questioned another servant about the scent as the chapter ended.

• Chu Qinxin handed Ye Lin the residence and left, so he entered with Luo Yao.
• Ten beautiful maidservants greeted Ye Lin, and he seized one and searched her soul, killing her in the process.
• Ye Lin ordered the other maidservants to bury the body and found no suspicious memories in the dead servant’s past.
• Ye Lin noticed the same pungent fragrance that he had smelled in the three city lords’ rooms and called in a maidservant to ask where it came from.

Ye Lin grew suspicious of Heavenly Capital City after learning about the Soul-Bewildering Incense and recalling Chu Qinxin’s strange reaction to the ancestor’s death. Tang Feng warned him not to enter the city, but their contact was cut off as an elderly Daoist arrived to question Ye Lin.

• Ye Lin ordered the maidservant not to burn Soul-Bewildering Incense, but she said the three City Lords required it in every Vice City Lord’s room.
• Ye Lin recalled his unease in Heavenly Capital City and Chu Qinxin’s indifferent response when he asked about the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect’s ancestor.
• Ye Lin contacted Tang Feng with a Jade Talisman, and Tang Feng said he was in Long River Prefecture preparing to join the Supreme Sword Sect.
• Tang Feng began warning Ye Lin to stay away from Heavenly Capital City, but his image shattered and the Jade Talisman cracked before he could finish.
• An elderly Daoist entered and asked Ye Lin what he thought of Heavenly Capital City as Luo Yao moved closer to him.
