Ye Lin agreed to accompany Tang Feng to investigate a mysterious pressure in Heavenly Chasm Grand Canyon, while Xinyou’s astonishing cultivation speed revealed how extraordinary he was. The two elders headed toward the canyon, where Tang Feng believed something unusual awaited them.

• Tang Feng invited Ye Lin to investigate a place he had discovered, and Ye Lin agreed after asking Luo Yao to stay behind.

• Ye Lin asked whether the creature within could be a Quasi-Saint, and Tang Feng replied that he would not have survived if it were.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng descended into the Heavenly Chasm Grand Canyon to investigate a powerful presence and entered a cave at its bottom. Armed with Substitute Dolls, they continued into the increasingly hot passage, where the walls glowed red.

• Ye Lin and Tang Feng flew over the canyon, and Ye Lin sensed a faint pressure rising from below.

• At the canyon floor, Tang Feng showed Ye Lin the cave he had found before and gave him a Substitute Doll from the Ancestor.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng attached their Substitute Dolls and entered the cave, with Ye Lin carrying Azure Frost and watching for danger.
• As they went deeper, the cave grew hotter and its walls turned fiery red.

Tang Feng and Ye Lin found a crimson longsword and a corpse on a platform surrounded by deadly magma, but sensed a powerful creature nearby. A humanoid monster rose from the magma, and they charged to fight it.

• Tang Feng and Ye Lin crossed the scorching passage and reached a platform surrounded by magma.
• Tang Feng spotted a crimson longsword embedded in the platform above a corpse, but Ye Lin stopped him from approaching.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng searched the cave for the source of the overwhelming pressure, keeping away from the platform.
• A creature made entirely of magma rose from the ground and released a terrifying pressure.
• Ye Lin charged the magma monster with Azure Frost, and Tang Feng followed close behind.
• The monster roared at Ye Lin and Tang Feng, sending a wave of pressure toward them.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng discovered that the magma monster ignored their attacks, while the crimson Long Sword on the platform burned and wounded anyone who touched it. The two realized they could not easily handle the situation, and the monster remained sealed beneath Ye Lin’s Heaven-Shaking Bell.

• Ye Lin’s Sword Qi split the magma monster in two, but it instantly healed without injury.
• Tang Feng’s wind blades also failed to harm the monster, so Ye Lin rushed toward the platform while Tang Feng tried to hold it back.
• Ye Lin grabbed the crimson Long Sword, burned his palm, and released it.
• Tang Feng failed to stop the magma and Ye Lin trapped it beneath the Heaven-Shaking Bell.
• Tang Feng touched the Long Sword and mangled his palm; Ye Lin and Tang Feng found that their wounds would not heal.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng became trapped on a platform surrounded by lava after failing to take the long sword, which kept the lava at bay. Their attacks and attempts to contact the ancestor failed, leaving them stranded as the heat rose.

• Tang Feng cut off his rotting arm, and Ye Lin used the Power of Origin, Rebirth to heal his injured palm.
• Ye Lin found that touching the long sword caused his hand to rot again, so he gave up on taking it.
• Tang Feng tried to contact the ancestor with a Jade Talisman, but the message could not get through.
• The Lava Monster broke free from the Heaven-Shaking Bell, and Ye Lin’s Sword Qi only bought him a moment before lava sealed the exit.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng returned to the high platform as the Lava Monster reappeared and the rising heat became difficult for them to endure.

Ye Lin discovered that Tang Feng was destined to find a Sword Dao Saint's inheritance and the Godslayer Sword beneath their current location. He decided to claim both treasures for himself.

• Ye Lin calmly examined Tang Feng's profile and learned about his cultivation, abilities, and future death.
• Ye Lin saw that Tang Feng would find a Sword Dao Saint's inheritance three thousand meters below them, along with the Godslayer Sword.
• Ye Lin decided that Tang Feng's inheritance and treasure would become his.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng broke through the platform to escape the Lava Monster and found a vast space beneath it. They discovered an enormous, seamless coffin that Ye Lin could not move, leaving its contents and purpose unknown.

• Ye Lin and Tang Feng smashed through the platform, and they fell into the hole with the corpse.
• The Lava Monster roared at the opening but did not dare descend after them.
• Ye Lin searched the space and spotted an enormous coffin, which Tang Feng followed him toward.
• Ye Lin circled the seamless coffin and struck it with his palm, but it did not move.

Ye Lin studied the murals and learned how Jian Wudi fought a Chaos Ancient Clan expert for three million years, won at a terrible cost, and died here. The Lava Monster was formed from the enemy’s blood, while Tang Feng remained unable to open Jian Wudi’s coffin.

• Tang Feng tried blades, teeth, and fists against the coffin for an hour but could not scratch it.
• Ye Lin studied the murals and learned that Jian Wudi had never lost a battle and had killed many Quasi-Saints in the Boundary Sea.
• The murals revealed that Jian Wudi fought a powerful imperial-clan expert from the Chaos Ancient Clan for three million years on the Origin Continent.
• Jian Wudi won the battle but was mortally wounded, buried himself there, and used his Godslayer Sword to suppress his enemy’s corpse.
• The enemy’s blood evolved into the Lava Monster, which feared the Godslayer Sword and could not be killed by ordinary attacks.

Ye Lin discovered Jian Wudi’s secret technique and opened the coffin, revealing the body of a seventh-level Quasi-Saint. Tang Feng asked what else the mural said, hoping it held a way out.

• Ye Lin learned that Jian Wudi’s account described a one-person secret technique that granted its user the inheritance.
• Tang Feng failed to break through the wall and asked Ye Lin whether he had found anything.
• Ye Lin told Tang Feng that a secret technique on the wall could open the coffin, then used it to lift the lid.
• Ye Lin identified the man in the coffin as Jian Wudi, a seventh-level Quasi-Saint.
• Tang Feng asked Ye Lin what else the mural mentioned, including whether it showed a way out.

Ye Lin entered Jian Wudi’s inheritance space and learned that Tang Feng, not he, was the one destined to receive the true inheritance. Jian Wudi gave Ye Lin three Houtian Supreme Treasure-rank sword techniques and entrusted him with the inheritance to take back to Tang Feng.

• Tang Feng accepted that Ye Lin had obtained the opportunity and walked away, asking Ye Lin to take him out later.
• Ye Lin touched Jian Wudi’s forehead and entered a plain where Jian Wudi was standing.
• Jian Wudi told Ye Lin that Tang Feng was the one fated to receive his inheritance, while Ye Lin was unsuited to it.
• Jian Wudi passed three Houtian Supreme Treasure-rank sword techniques into Ye Lin’s mind.
• Jian Wudi gave Ye Lin his true inheritance and told him to bring it outside for Tang Feng rather than absorb it himself.

Ye Lin returned from meeting Jian Wudi and handed Jian Wudi’s inheritance to Tang Feng, who feared Ye Lin had been possessed. Tang Feng began absorbing the inheritance while Ye Lin restored the coffin lid, leaving them to rely on the inheritance and Godslayer Sword to escape.

• Ye Lin emerged from the vision after only three breaths, making Tang Feng suspect Jian Wudi had possessed him.
• Ye Lin gave Tang Feng the inheritance and explained that Tang Feng needed it to control the Godslayer Sword and escape the Lava Monster.
• Tang Feng reluctantly accepted the inheritance and sat down to absorb the vast memories it contained.
• Ye Lin used a secret technique to replace the coffin lid, restoring it to the coffin.

Ye Lin comprehended Jian Wudi’s three powerful sword moves while Tang Feng received his inheritance. Fifty years later, Tang Feng awakened, and the two acknowledged that their journey had benefited them both.

• Ye Lin studied Divide Yin and Yang, Unrivaled, and All Things Wither, deciding to reserve the most dangerous strikes for desperate situations.
• Ye Lin continued watching Tang Feng as the aura around him grew stronger during fifty years of inheritance.
• Tang Feng opened his eyes after fifty years, and Ye Lin stopped comprehending the sword moves.
• Tang Feng thanked Ye Lin for sharing the inheritance, and Ye Lin replied that they had both gained from the trip.

• Tang Feng attempted to claim the Godslayer Sword, but it mangled his hand and refused to acknowledge him.
• Ye Lin picked up the Godslayer Sword without resistance and began wielding it.
• Tang Feng happily accepted that he had gained the inheritance while Ye Lin gained the sword.
• Ye Lin and Tang Feng returned to the cavern, where the Lava Monster backed away from the Godslayer Sword.
• Ye Lin led Tang Feng past the retreating Lava Monster and toward the exit.

Ye Lin and Tang Feng returned to the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect after sealing the cave where Jian Wudi rested, and Ye Lin resumed secluded cultivation. While Heavenly March Prefecture remained peaceful, Wang Zifu decided to flee the Origin Continent, fearing Ye Lin might still come for him.

• Ye Lin and Tang Feng sealed the cave beneath rubble, then raced back toward the Myriad Heavens Divine Sect after fifty years away.
• Ye Lin learned from Spring Maiden that the sect had remained peaceful and that Luo Yao had gone out to have fun.
• 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.
• Wang Zifu changed course and headed for Long River Prefecture to avoid the coming war and Ye Lin.
• 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 ordered all major sects to stop other activities and mine resources like mad.
• Su Xin suspected the Daluo Golden Immortals were preparing to escape a war with the Chaos Ancient Clan.
• 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.
