Ye Lin, Wang Tian, and Li Xiaoyao set out for Ling Commandery to investigate a treasure emerging in the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range. The Five Venerables revealed that they had engineered the event by forging the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers and intended to reclaim the Heavenly Dao origin they had spent.

• After the Boundless Artifact in Ling Commandery gestated for three days without appearing, its growing phenomena fueled speculation that it could be mid-grade or high-grade.
• Powerhouses from across the Anlan Great World rushed to Ling Commandery, and ordinary residents fled to the wilderness as the city filled with visitors.

As the Five Venerables drew tribulation aura into the Anlan Great World, ancient experts fled rather than risk being caught in the Great Age. Zhao Xiong learned of their departure through the Heavenly Dao and let them go, intent on continuing the Five Venerables’ plan.

• Ancient experts condemned the Five Venerables for bringing tribulation aura into the Anlan Great World and feared the chaos ahead.

Wang Tian, Ye Lin, and Li Xiaoyao arrived at the gorge where a Heavenly Dao treasure was gestating, amid dozens of Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal cultivators. Ye Lin declared that the emerging treasure was Li Xiaoyao’s opportunity, and Li Xiaoyao vowed to kill anyone who tried to take it.

• Ye Lin told Li Xiaoyao the treasure would suit him and said he and Wang Tian would help him claim it.
• Li Xiaoyao accepted Ye Lin’s claim and vowed to kill anyone who tried to seize the treasure.

Ye Lin, Wang Tian, and Xiaoyao waited as news of a Boundless Artifact spread across the Anlan Great World. By the seventh day, a vast crowd of cultivators had gathered at the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range, hoping to claim the artifact, whose spirit could choose its own master.

• Ye Lin told Wang Tian that they would help Xiaoyao obtain the item and that Wang Tian would receive an explanation about his opportunity afterward.
• News of the Boundless Artifact spread throughout the Anlan Great World in five days, drawing powerful cultivators despite suspicions that someone was deliberately publicizing it.
• On the seventh day, countless cultivators of many races gathered around the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range, including sixty-three Primordial Unity Mystic Immortals.
• Some gathered cultivators warned that a battle could kill the weaker arrivals, while others said even True Immortals might win if the artifact spirit chose them as its master.

Cultivators gathered in Ling Commandery hoped to claim or witness the birth of an ownerless Infinite Artifact, but the artifact’s heavenly trial unleashed a terrifying storm. Ye Lin watched from the gorge, knowing the newborn artifact had to survive the trial to become a true Infinite Artifact.

• True Immortals gathered to try their luck at becoming the master of the ownerless Infinite Artifact, while others came to witness the event and boast about it later.
• A tremendous boom shook the gorge, and dark clouds, lightning, thunder, and fierce winds spread across the area.
• Greedy powerhouses coveted the treasure, but some Heavenly Immortals withdrew when the phenomenon became too dangerous.
• Ye Lin watched the gorge and recognized that the newborn Infinite Artifact was undergoing heaven and earth’s trial, which it had to survive to become a true Infinite Artifact.

Two high-grade Infinite Artifacts, the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers, emerged and endured the Heavenly Dao’s lightning tribulation. As the tribulation ended, Li Xiaoyao recognized the hammers as treasures meant for him, while the gathered experts watched them float in the sky.

• Ye Lin and the other experts descended to the ground as the heavenly might intensified.
• Two hammers, one purple and one cyan, appeared in the gorge, and the experts realized they were high-grade Infinite Artifacts.
• The Wind Thunder Twin Hammers flew into the clouds and withstood the lightning tribulation without damage.
• Li Xiaoyao watched the hammers eagerly, convinced they were meant for him.
• After half an hour, the clouds and astral winds disappeared, leaving the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers floating in the sky.

Experts gathered around the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers hesitated to act, but Li Xiaoyao rushed for the artifact and drew their attacks. He clashed with an old man over the hammers while Ye Lin and Wang Tian watched.

• The gathered experts held back, each wary of becoming the target of the others.
• Li Xiaoyao secretly rushed toward the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers while Ye Lin told him to wait; Wang Tian pointed him out to Ye Lin.
• The hammers struck Li Xiaoyao's hands with lightning, leaving two blood-red marks, but he still claimed them as his own.
• An old man attacked Li Xiaoyao and urged him to give up the artifact.
• Li Xiaoyao dodged the old man's strike and fought him in the void.

Ye Lin and Wang Tianyi faced a crowd of veteran Primordial Unity Mystic Immortals fighting over the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers, and Ye Lin decided to clear a path while Wang Tianyi followed. Ye Lin’s Time Measuring Ruler suppressed a giant hand that attacked him, and he pressed on toward the treasures.

• Ye Lin assessed the powerful cultivators surrounding the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers and told Wang Tianyi to take the items and escape if he held the others back.
• Wang Tianyi questioned whether Ye Lin trusted him, and Ye Lin said he trusted his friends before agreeing they had to fight their way closer.

• Ye Lin struck the giant hand with the Time Measuring Ruler, suppressed it with the law of time, and continued charging forward.

Ye Lin helped Wang Tian seize the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers, then stayed behind to hold off the Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal experts pursuing him. Surrounded and targeted by a Primordial Spirit attack, Ye Lin defended himself with the Mysterious Yellow All-Things Bell.

• Ye Lin told Wang Tian to take the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers and run, and Wang Tian suppressed the hammers and fled with them.
• Ye Lin blocked an expert from pursuing Wang Tian with the Time Measuring Ruler and challenged the others to attack him.

• An expert used Brahma Heaven Great Void to attack Ye Lin's Primordial Spirit, but Ye Lin protected it with the Mysterious Yellow All-Things Bell.
• The expert praised Ye Lin for resisting the spell with ease.

Ye Lin escaped with Li Xiaoyao as the Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal powerhouses pursued them, while the calamity spread among the gathered True Immortals. The remaining powerhouses recognized the danger and began fleeing as the corrupted cultivators descended into slaughter.

• Ye Lin grabbed Li Xiaoyao and used the Time Measuring Ruler to escape through collapsing space.
• The Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal powerhouses pursued Ye Lin, leaving the True Immortal spectators bewildered.

• The Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal powerhouses recognized the calamity and feared its spread among the gathered cultivators.
• A sharp-eyed Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal powerhouse fled, warning that the others could be affected if they stayed.

Ye Lin escaped the Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal experts who had pursued him and reassured Wang Tian that the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers would not bring the Wang Family serious trouble. Wang Tian remained anxious about the consequences and wished he could leave the Anlan Great World.

• Ye Lin used the Time Measuring Ruler to shatter space and erase his trail, leaving his pursuers roaring that they would find and kill him.

• Wang Tian nodded but remained uneasy and wished he could leave the Anlan Great World.

The five venerables’ scheme to use a Boundless Artifact and calamity tribulation to ensnare powerful cultivators was ruined when Ye Lin seized the treasure. They debated what to do next as the Anlan Great World’s native experts slaughtered one another, risking damage to their own foundation.

• The five venerables lamented that Ye Lin had disrupted their plan and taken the high-grade Boundless Artifact.
• They recalled how they had planned to draw cultivators to the Hundred-Broken Mountain Range, use calamity tribulation to corrupt their minds, and trap them during the fight for the treasure.
• After Ye Lin’s intervention drew away most Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal experts, the venerables activated the calamity tribulation to keep the gathered True Immortals from dispersing.
• Zhao Xiong explained that Invincible Ones were unpredictable variables who could not be made to follow the venerables’ plans.
• Fourth Venerable Mo Yu warned that continuing to consume Anlan Great World’s native experts could weaken the world and undermine the venerables’ own foundation.

Great Venerable Qin Changsheng and the other Venerables considered using outsiders to strengthen the Anlan Great World, while a fleet from the Profound Origin Scorpion Clan arrived to claim it. The young commander led most of the fleet inside without resistance, leaving the reason for the Anlan Great World’s lack of defense unclear.

• Qin Changsheng and the other four Venerables agreed that powerful Starry Sky cultivators could be lured into the Anlan Great World and killed for its growth.

• The young man rejected an old man’s caution and ordered twenty warships to blockade the world while the rest followed him inside.
• The young man entered the Anlan Great World without resistance and wondered why its Heavenly Dao had not opposed the invasion.

A young man suspected the Anlan Great World’s Heavenly Dao might be intelligent and ordered a Heaven-Binding Lock brought from his clan. After three peaceful days, Ye Lin set out to take Wang Tian to the Snake Water Region, learning that it belonged to the terrifying Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python Clan.

• The young man ordered an old man to bring him the Heaven-Binding Lock in case the Anlan Great World’s Heavenly Dao had developed intelligence.
• Ye Lin told Wang Tian that three peaceful days had passed, easing Wang Tian’s fears that a Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal had come seeking revenge.
• Ye Lin asked Wang Tian where the Snake Water Region was and considered how to make up for Wang Tian’s dissatisfaction over the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers.
• Wang Tian warned Ye Lin that the Snake Water Region belonged entirely to the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python Clan and that even Primordial Unity Mystic Immortals could die there if they provoked its members.

Ye Lin persuaded Wang Tian to enter the Snake Water Region in search of a life-changing opportunity, despite the danger posed by the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python. Meanwhile, a Profound Origin Scorpion Clan envoy threatened the Python clan’s patriarch with an ultimatum to submit.

• Ye Lin told Wang Tian that his opportunity lay in the Snake Water Region and convinced him to go despite the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python’s hostility toward the Human Race.
• Wang Tian agreed to follow Ye Lin, then suggested they sneak into the region without being discovered.
• A young man from the Profound Origin Scorpion Clan urged the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python patriarch to affiliate with his clan and help conquer the Anlan Great World.
• The young man threatened to wipe out the Python clan, citing the more than one hundred Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal experts he had brought and the clan’s small number of pure-blooded members.

Xuan Tian threatened Mu Wanqing and the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python clan, demanding that she serve the Profound Origin Scorpion Clan or face annihilation. After he left, Mu Wanqing refused to flee with her family, while Li Yu vowed to seek help from his old friends and fight back.

• Li Yu told Mu Wanqing to wait one month for good news, then left the hall to seek help.
• Ye Lin, Wang Tian, and Li Xiaoyao searched the vast Snake Water Region for the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
• The group spotted a young woman in pink fleeing from ten men who identified themselves as members of Snake-Hunting Valley.
• Li Xiaoyao charged the ten men, eager to fight ten opponents at once.
• The men realized Li Xiaoyao was a Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal and begged him to spare them.

Li Xiaoyao killed the ten attackers who had pursued Li Miaoling, then asked her to lead him and Ye Lin to the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Li Miaoling refused, warning that her father’s restriction would reveal her location if Ye Lin tried a Soul Search.

• The ten attackers sensed Li Xiaoyao’s Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal aura, begged for mercy, and were wiped out by his lightning.
• Li Miaoling thanked Li Xiaoyao for saving her and declared that she was willing to serve him for life.
• Li Xiaoyao asked Li Miaoling to lead them to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but she refused because she had just escaped from there.
• Wang Tian told Ye Lin that Li Miaoling had a pure Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python bloodline and likely had an extraordinary background.
• Ye Lin demanded that Li Miaoling reveal the mountains’ location or submit to a Soul Search, and she warned that her father’s restriction would expose her location if he tried.

Wang Tian forced Li Miaoling to reveal her identity and details about the Hundred Thousand Mountains. He learned that reaching the mountains required passing three checkpoints guarded by the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python clan.

• Wang Tian used a Truth Pill to make Li Miaoling answer his questions.
• Li Miaoling revealed that she was the clan leader’s eldest daughter and that her father was Saint Longevity, once the Anlan Great World’s top prodigy.
• Li Miaoling explained that the Hundred Thousand Mountains lay in the heartland of her clan and were heavily guarded.
• Li Miaoling described the three checkpoints: Flame Mountain, the dangerous Swamp Forest, and the clan’s own defenses, which entrants had to evade or fight through.

Wang Tian learned that the route into the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python clan’s territory passed through Flame Mountain and the Swamp Forest, and Ye Lin decided they would take it. As they prepared to head out, Ye Lin raised the question of what to do with the clan’s young miss.

• Li Miaoling explained that the group could enter through three checkpoints, be taken inside by the clan chief, or fight their way in.
• Li Miaoling gave Wang Tian a map showing the checkpoints and warned that Flame Mountain and the Swamp Forest were dangerous.
• Ye Lin studied the map and chose to travel through Flame Mountain and the Swamp Forest toward the clan’s territory.
• Li Miaoling was shocked that they intended to proceed despite the dangers.
• Ye Lin asked whether they should kill the young miss, since she could report their infiltration.

Ye Lin took Li Miaoling along as a captive and followed the map toward Flame Mountain. After three days, the group found only an empty plateau, and Ye Lin realized an array was concealing the mountain.

• Ye Lin ordered Li Xiaoyao to keep Li Miaoling with the group as a bargaining chip, and Wang Tian apologized to her before following Ye Lin.
• Li Xiaoyao threatened Li Miaoling while she persistently asked his name and celebrated learning that they shared the surname Li.
• Ye Lin and Wang Tian followed the map for three days to the plateau where Flame Mountain was supposed to be.
• Ye Lin saw that the mountain was missing and suspected an array concealed it, but he admitted he could not understand profound arrays.
• Li Miaoling said she had stolen the map and had never visited Flame Mountain or learned what was happening there.

Ye Lin and Wang Tianyi discovered Bao Xiaotou hiding on a mound near Flame Mountain and learned that he was an exceptionally gifted array cultivator seeking a breakthrough. Ye Lin recognized Bao Xiaotou as the array talent he needed and was pleased with the discovery.

• Wang Tianyi pointed out a figure lying on a small earthen mound, and Ye Lin spotted him.
• Bao Xiaotou muttered that he had seen through Flame Mountain's illusion array and hoped to reach the Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal realm.
• Ye Lin examined Bao Xiaotou's profile and saw his extraordinary array talents, fortune, and future opportunities.
• Ye Lin decided Bao Xiaotou was the array talent he needed, having already found Wang Tianyi as a Dao Pill master.

Bao Xiaotou used formations to reveal a hidden entrance to Flame Mountain, and Ye Lin and the others followed him inside. The gate closed behind them, leaving the plateau unchanged.

• Bao Xiaotou placed treasures across the plain and used hand seals to expose a web of threads in the natural formation.
• Bao Xiaotou waved a black flag and revealed the intermittently visible Flame Mountain.
• Bao Xiaotou scattered white powder and opened a gate to the burning mountain range.
• Bao Xiaotou entered the gate with his canvas bag, and Ye Lin and the other three followed before it closed and the formation disappeared.

Ye Lin encountered Bao Xiaotou at Flame Mountain and tried to recruit him by offering protection. Bao Xiaotou mistook Li Miaoling for the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python Clan’s captured little princess, and Ye Lin pressed him to lead the way into the clan’s territory.

• Bao Xiaotou noticed Ye Lin and his companions near Flame Mountain and introduced himself as Li Feiyu.
• Ye Lin questioned Bao Xiaotou about seeking a fortuitous opportunity beyond Flame Mountain, and Bao Xiaotou cautiously admitted his goal.
• Ye Lin revealed Li Miaoling, and Bao Xiaotou excitedly identified her as the Seven-Colored Heaven-Devouring Python Clan’s little princess.
• Ye Lin told Bao Xiaotou to lead the way and promised to protect him if danger arose.
