Ye Lin and his companions gathered with the Demon Domain’s Golden Immortals before setting out to explore and conquer the Star River Cosmos. The Golden Immortals put aside their past grievances, offered the group protective treasures, and sent them on their way with hopes that one of them would rise to prominence.

Ye Lin received lavish gifts from the Golden Immortals, including a Star River Cosmos star map and a low-grade Boundless-class warship from Mo Cang. After the elders advised the group about traveling through the cosmos and departed, Xu Changsheng said he would have to break his promise to become Ye Lin’s Dao Protector.

The warship disappeared beyond the horizon, leaving the Demon Domain to turn its attention toward the future.

• Xu Changsheng told Ye Lin that he had to break his promise and could not accompany him, fearing the Shu Mountain Sword Sect would be left vulnerable.
• Ye Lin thanked Xu Changsheng and said that he and his companions would walk the road ahead themselves.

Ye Lin and his companions traveled through the barren Star River Cosmos while Ye Lin cultivated several techniques. The group discovered an enormous Human Race corpse floating in space, and Dugu Feng wondered whether it had belonged to a Golden Immortal.

• Ye Lin and his companions left the Demon Domain aboard the warship and spent days traveling through the desolate Star River Cosmos.
• Ye Lin began cultivating the Ninefold Spirit-Concentrating Art and Grass-Character Sword Art, but could not practice the True King Sacred Body without its required medicinal herbs.
• Dugu Feng spotted a corpse floating ahead of the warship and alerted the others.
• Ye Lin and his companions saw that the corpse was an enormous Human Race expert, and Dugu Feng wondered whether it had been a Golden Immortal.

Ye Lin and the others fled after finding the recently dead body of a likely Half-Step Golden Immortal, then learned they were still three years from the Mist Map Star Region. Before they could continue their journey, an old man and his forces surrounded their warship.

• Ye Lin identified the corpse as a recently deceased Half-Step Golden Immortal, and the group hurried away in case its killer was nearby.
• Ye Lin consulted a star map and told the others that reaching the Mist Map Star Region would take at least three years.
• An old man spoke from nearby, and Ye Lin and the others realized three warships full of Primordial Unity Mystic Immortals had surrounded them.
• Ye Lin faced the old man, whose aura frightened him, as the old man taunted the group.

Ye Lin and his companions confronted an old man who claimed to have killed a half-step Golden Immortal and tried to seize their warship. Ye Lin sent the weaker members to escape, then led the other three into battle while charging toward the old man.

• The old man admitted that he had killed the corpse Ye Lin had found and offered to spare the group if they abandoned their warship.
• Ye Lin told Dugu Feng, Poison Venerable, and Li Xiaoyao to prepare to fight, while Wang Tian and the others planned to flee and regroup using their Jade Talisman.

• Ye Lin, Dugu Feng, Li Xiaoyao, and Poison Venerable fought off the attackers with their distinct techniques.
• Ye Lin charged straight at the old man to test the gap between them, and the old man laughed that Ye Lin wanted to fight him.

Ye Lin and his companions fled after a strange old man easily defeated Ye Lin and sent his followers after them. Ye Lin concluded they needed to turn and fight, while keeping their Golden Immortal trump card secret unless they had no other choice.

• Ye Lin attacked the old man, who caught his sword barehanded and knocked him flying with a palm strike.
• The old man shattered Ye Lin’s thunder Sword Qi, but Ye Lin and his three companions escaped.
• The old man ordered his followers to pursue the group and promised a Blood Crystal for capturing one of them.
• Dugu Feng complained about the pursuers, and Ye Lin said the old man had likely controlled them and that the group needed to kill them to escape.
• Ye Lin realized they had been careless to travel openly in a lower-grade Boundless-rank warship through the Mist Map Star Region.

Ye Lin and his companions fled from an old man pursuing them, then turned to fight when escape seemed impossible. Ye Lin bound the old man with golden chains, and the others unleashed their strongest attacks, leaving the result of the assault unresolved.

• Li Xiaoyao proposed that the four of them join forces against the old man, but Ye Lin said the strength gap was too great.
• Poison Venerable suggested using Bao Xiaotou to set an array, but Ye Lin refused to risk involving Bao Xiaotou and the others.
• Ye Lin planned an ambush, instructing Li Xiaoyao to strike first and the others to follow with all their strength.
• Ye Lin used Lock of Void to bind the old man with golden chains.
• Li Xiaoyao, Ye Lin, and the others struck the trapped old man with their strongest attacks.

Ye Lin and the others discovered that their strongest attacks had transformed the old man into a stronger tentacled monster. When they tried to flee, he blocked their way and attacked, leaving them searching for an escape.

• Ye Lin dispelled the Void Chains as black mist spread from the old man and enveloped the nearby experts.
• The old man emerged fused with the experts, forming a tentacled monster whose aura frightened Ye Lin, Dugu Feng, Li Xiaoyao, and Poison Venerable.
• Dugu Feng, Li Xiaoyao, and Poison Venerable realized their strongest attacks had failed, and Ye Lin ordered them to run.
• The monster blocked their escape with tentacles, and Dugu Feng found that even his low-grade Boundless Artifact could not cut through one.
• Poison Venerable urged the group to find a way out, but the old man declared that he would not let them escape.

Ye Lin and his companions struggled against a grotesque Half-Step Golden Immortal whose defenses and speed overwhelmed them. Five mysterious women arrived and joined the fight, easing the pressure as the monster began to falter.

• Ye Lin led Li Xiaoyao, Dugu Feng, and their companion in an assault on the monster’s central mass.
• Dugu Feng’s Sword Qi only sparked against the creature, and a tentacle struck him flying.
• Ye Lin decided to trap the monster with the Lock of Void so the others could escape.
• Pink petals appeared in the Starry Sky and coiled around the monster as five women approached.
• The leading woman asked Ye Lin to join forces against the monster, and the two groups attacked together.
• The combined assault forced the Half-Step Golden Immortal to struggle against its attackers.

While waiting on a desolate star, Shangguan Wanyu and the others worried that Ye Lin had not returned, but Luo Yao trusted that Great River was protecting him. Bao Xiaotou finished a powerful formation and led the group out to help Ye Lin and the others.

• Shangguan Wanyu worried that Ye Lin and the others had been captured, while Wang Tian said they were likely still fighting and could escape if necessary.
• Luo Yao assured the group that Great River would protect Ye Lin, and Shangguan Wanyu gently questioned her about Great River.
• Bao Xiaotou finished three Formation Disks and named his creation the Nine Heavens Ten Lands Myriad Things Annihilation Unstoppable Heaven-and-Earth Invincible Slaughter Formation.
• Bao Xiaotou claimed his formation could kill even a Golden Immortal, and Wang Tian questioned whether it was reliable.
• Bao Xiaotou insisted he had put serious effort into the formation and urged everyone to go help Ye Lin and the others.

Ye Lin and his companions encountered a Heart-Devouring Demon, whose attacks threatened the Primordial Spirit, while five women attempted to capture it. After the demon broke free and unleashed a terrifying power, Ye Lin and the others fled with their six senses sealed; Ye Lin opened his senses again after several dozen breaths.

• The women identified the monster as a Heart-Devouring Demon worth three million Blood Crystals and warned that it had Half-Step Golden Immortal strength.
• One of the women warned Ye Lin and the others that the demon attacked the Primordial Spirit.
• The five women used a formation of pink petals to bind the Heart-Devouring Demon and absorb its blood-red qi.
• The Heart-Devouring Demon shattered the petal encirclement and released purple-black waves that could transform anyone who entered the area.
• One of the women ordered everyone to seal their six senses and retreat, and Ye Lin and the others fled blindly.
• After several dozen breaths, Ye Lin opened his six senses.

Ye Lin and his companions encountered a Heart-Devouring Demon whose spiritual power made it unbeatable to them, and learned that only a Golden Immortal could defeat it. They were trapped with no escape and faced the humiliating prospect of seeking reinforcements.

• Ye Lin dodged the Heart-Devouring Demon’s tentacles after reopening his six senses, while five women warned that the creature had reached the Heart-Devouring level.
• Ye Lin, Li Xiaoyao, and their companions tried to flee, but the five women returned and told them the demon could reach them wherever they went.
• The leading woman explained that the demon’s spiritual power made it as strong as it believed itself to be, within its limits.
• The woman said a Golden Immortal was needed to defeat the demon, leaving the group reluctant to ask for reinforcements.

Ye Lin and his companions fought the Heart-Devouring Demon, whose tentacles resisted their strongest attacks. As they struggled to hold out, Ye Lin considered borrowing the Xuanyuan Sword’s power again.

• The Heart-Devouring Demon attacked the group with countless tentacles, and Ye Lin raised a Sword Qi barrier to protect them.
• The five women left the barrier and restrained the tentacles with petals while Li Xiaoyao fought them with the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers.
• Ye Lin unleashed the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder Sword Art, but his thunderous Sword Qi could not harm the tentacles.
• One of the women said she had called Golden Immortal elders, who would arrive in half an hour, while Dugu Feng and Poison Venerable remained bound and unable to fight effectively.
• Ye Lin doubted they could survive until help arrived and considered borrowing the Xuanyuan Sword’s power to defeat the demon.

Bao Xiaotou arrived with his companions and used three Formation Disks to restrain the Heart-Devouring Demon, making it feel fear for the first time. He claimed his formation could kill even a Golden Immortal, and the demon’s fate remained uncertain.

• Bao Xiaotou and his companions appeared, and Bao Xiaotou said he had come to test his latest results.
• Bao Xiaotou told everyone to move aside and prepared three Formation Disks while the Heart-Devouring Demon taunted them.
• Five women joined Ye Lin and watched as Bao Xiaotou used the Seal Divinity and Seal Consciousness Formation Disks to restrict the demon and free Poison Venerable and Dugu Feng.
• Bao Xiaotou cast Seal Heart, and the Heart-Devouring Demon showed fear, shocking Ye Lin, the five women, and the others.
• Bao Xiaotou claimed his grand formation could slay a Golden Immortal and told the Heart-Devouring Demon it was finished.

Bao Xiaotou suppressed the Heart-Devouring Demon and drained its power while Ye Lin and the woman watched in astonishment. The demon’s pleas ended when Bao Xiaotou’s Formation Disks exploded, giving it a chance to threaten him again.

• Bao Xiaotou extracted the Heart-Devouring Demon's power and used three Formation Disks to suppress it.
• Ye Lin noticed the demon’s strength fading, and the woman asked about Bao Xiaotou’s origins.
• The Heart-Devouring Demon begged for its life, angering Bao Xiaotou with its repeated claims to be an ancestor.
• Bao Xiaotou poured more immortal power into the Formation Disks, and they cracked before exploding.
• The Heart-Devouring Demon laughed with relief and began threatening Bao Xiaotou.

Bao Xiaotou used a hidden grand formation to drain and suppress the Heart-Devouring Demon, while a Golden Immortal arrived and revealed that the five women were her disciples. The formation transformed into a giant millstone as Bao Xiaotou prepared to kill the weakened demon.

• Bao Xiaotou activated the grand formation concealed within the shattered Formation Disk, absorbing the Heart-Devouring Demon's power and strengthening the formation.
• A Golden Immortal in a purple gown emerged from a shattered void, and Ye Lin, Dugu Feng, and Poison Venerable greeted her while Li Xiaoyao stared at her in admiration.
• The five women gathered around the Golden Immortal and called her their Master, leaving Ye Lin and Dugu Feng surprised by Li Xiaoyao's apparent connection to her.
• Bao Xiaotou decided to finish off the weakened Heart-Devouring Demon, and the glowing formation transformed into an enormous millstone.

Bao Xiaotou destroyed the Heart-Devouring Demon and refused Wen Xin’s offer to join her. Wen Xin offered to escort Ye Lin’s group to the Mist Map Star Region, and they were left deciding whether to trust her.

• Bao Xiaotou erased the Heart-Devouring Demon and shattered the formation around them.
• Bao Xiaotou declined Wen Xin’s invitation to follow her, saying he had his own path.
• Ye Lin confirmed that his group was heading to the Mist Map Star Region after checking that no one was missing.
• Wen Xin warned that powerful cultivators waited outside the Mist Map Star Region to prey on young prodigies, and offered to escort Ye Lin’s group.
• Wen Xin entered the void with the five women and waited for Ye Lin’s group to follow.

Wen Xin led Ye Lin and his group through a void rift to the center of the Mist Map Star Region and explained the trials ahead. With the teleportation array opening in three months and only thirty thousand places available, the group was left to prepare for a deadly competition among millions of prodigies.

• Ye Lin and his companions followed Wen Xin through a void rift, which sealed behind them once Shangguan Wanyu entered.
• Wen Xin brought the group to the prosperous center of the Mist Map Star Region and explained that its teleportation array led to the third-layer region.
• Wen Xin described the Star River Cosmos’s layers and warned that reaching the Central Star Domain required surviving repeated contests and attaining at least Primordial Unity Golden Immortal.
• Wen Xin explained that the array would activate in three months and carry only thirty thousand prodigies, while millions would compete for those places.
• Wen Xin invited Bao Xiaotou to seek her out if he failed to secure a place, then she and the five women departed after warning Ye Lin’s group to be careful.

Ye Lin and his companions prepared to enter the selection for the teleportation array, where only thirty thousand slots were available and the competition was fierce. They set out to test themselves against the star domains’ geniuses, eager to regain confidence after their encounter with the Heart-Devouring Demon.

• Bao Xiaotou wondered whether Wen Xin was attracted to him, while Dugu Feng corrected him that she wanted his formation skills.

• An unidentified voice interrupted them, calling them trash and telling them to get lost.

Li Xiaoyao fought two spear-wielding attendants after they ordered Ye Lin's group off the road, killing one and frightening the other. Xue Feng, the young master of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect, then tried to make peace, but Li Xiaoyao walked toward him with his hammers in hand.

• Xue Feng's attendants demanded that Ye Lin's group move aside, and Li Xiaoyao challenged them both.
• The two attendants attacked Li Xiaoyao, who knocked one aside and killed the other with his Wind Thunder Twin Hammers.
• The surviving attendant stood frozen in fear after witnessing Li Xiaoyao's brutal attack.
• Xue Feng introduced himself as the young master of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect and suggested they call the incident even.
• Li Xiaoyao ignored Xue Feng's conciliatory words and walked toward him carrying his hammers.

Ye Lin ordered Li Xiaoyao to attack Xue Feng despite Xue Feng’s threats about the Snow Mountain Sword Sect and his father, Xue Zhongjian. Xue Feng blocked an attack with Sword Qi, then fled using a Jade Talisman and vowed revenge.

• Xue Feng invoked his status as the Snow Mountain Sword Sect’s young master and offered Li Xiaoyao friendship, but Li Xiaoyao asked Ye Lin what to do.
• Ye Lin ordered Li Xiaoyao to kill Xue Feng, dismissing the sect’s backing.
• Xue Feng threatened that the group would not leave the Mist Map Star Region alive if they attacked him.
• Li Xiaoyao swung his Wind Thunder Twin Hammers at Xue Feng’s carriage, and Xue Feng countered with his Flowing Cloud Break Sword Qi.
• Xue Feng crushed a Jade Talisman and vanished into the Starry Sky, threatening the group with the Snow Mountain Sword Sect’s wrath.

Li Xiaoyao killed the young man who had begged for his life, and Ye Lin led his group toward the Central Land. Their journey stopped when a mass of native powerhouses blocked the way, apparently preparing to announce something important.

• Li Xiaoyao ignored the young man’s pleas and smashed him to death with the Wind Thunder Twin Hammers.
• Ye Lin told his group to leave and reflected that Golden Immortals would avoid attacking him because the cost would be too high.
• Ye Lin and his companions traveled through the star system toward the Central Land among groups of prodigies and their followers.
• Other travelers stared at Ye Lin’s unusual group, especially Shangguan Wanyu, Luo Yao, and the young or low-ranked companions.
• Ye Lin’s group reached a crowd of native Mist Map Star Region powerhouses, and Ye Lin told Dugu Feng to wait for their announcement while watching a distant figure who shone like the sun.

Ye Lin waited with Dugu Feng, Poison Venerable, and Shangguan Wanyu among millions of prodigies gathered in the Mist Map Star Region for a chance to reach the Third Region. A Golden Immortal dismissed the escorts and began explaining the selection, revealing that only thirty thousand people could pass through the teleportation array.

• Dugu Feng wondered whether the gathered prodigies would have to fight for the thirty thousand available spots, while Ye Lin privately found his behavior increasingly foolish.
• Shangguan Wanyu trained among the crowd, and Ye Lin reflected on her Fate Traits, which could help locate treasures and evade danger in secret realms.
• Ye Lin considered how Shangguan Wanyu’s abilities could complement his panel’s guidance toward opportunities.
• A Golden Immortal welcomed the gathered prodigies and ordered their Golden Immortal escorts to leave.
• The Golden Immortal announced that the teleportation array opened once every ten thousand years and could carry only thirty thousand people to the Third Region.

Ye Lin and the other contestants entered a deadly competition in which they had to kill savage beasts and each other to earn points and qualify for the teleportation array. Ye Lin found himself with Li Xiaoyao and the others in a ruined temple, surrounded by damaged Buddhist statues.

• An old man announced that only the top thirty thousand contestants who earned points by killing creatures could use the teleportation array, and that killing other contestants would steal their points.
• The contestants stayed despite the rules, and the old man gave each person a wooden token before beginning the slaughter.
• Ye Lin received a token marked with the number one and was transported to the competition grounds.
• Ye Lin opened his eyes in a ruined wooden temple and saw Li Xiaoyao and the others standing behind him.
• Ye Lin surveyed three damaged golden Buddhist statues, one of which had lost its eyeballs.
