Chapter Summaries

A powerful figure emerged from the Immortal Gate and offered the cold youth and four Saint-level geniuses passage to the Immortal Realm. The figure then noticed Zhao Fu and, astonished by his aptitude, demanded to know which Immortal Realm faction he belonged to, while Zhao Fu insisted he was an ordinary person.

• Zhao Fu said he was an ordinary person, leaving the phantom unable to understand how he could possess such aptitude.

A powerful phantom offered to take Zhao Fu to the Immortal Realm as his personal disciple, but Zhao Fu refused because he cared about Great Qin and the people there. When the phantom tried to seize him, a mysterious presence in Apocalypse World intervened, allowing Zhao Fu to escape; the phantom then sent the five Saint-level prodigies through the Immortal Gate.

• The phantom offered to make Zhao Fu his personal disciple and said he might one day lead the Immortal Dao Sect, but Zhao Fu declined because he would not abandon the people he cared about.
• The phantom imprisoned Zhao Fu and sent a giant hand of immortal qi to seize him, while Di Xi and Great Void Patriarch admitted they could not help him escape.

• Zhao Fu escaped at once, and the phantom acknowledged his powerful background before directing the five Saint-level prodigies to enter the Immortal Gate.

Five saint-level prodigies entered the Immortal Realm and were escorted into the Immortal Dao Sect by Immortal Eight. Immortal Eight then told Xuan Qinghua about an extraordinary lower-realm youth, leaving Xuan Qinghua stunned by the youth’s seven Supreme Imperial Stars and Supreme Imperial Star Bloodline.

• Immortal Eight revealed that the youth also possessed an unusual First-Generation Origin Bloodline containing the Supreme Imperial Star Bloodline.
• Xuan Qinghua was shocked because the Supreme Imperial Star Bloodline was nearly unheard of and could make the youth’s descendants likely to awaken Supreme Imperial Stars.

Immortal Eight told Xuan Qinghua about a lower-realm man with a first-generation bloodline, an ultimate divine power, and extraordinary potential who had refused to join the Immortal Dao Sect. They decided to report him to the Dao Immortals, while considering whether to seek him out themselves and worrying that his Calamity Star could bring disaster.

• Immortal Eight told Xuan Qinghua that he had encountered a man with a rare first-generation bloodline and a terrifying divine power in a crack in the Immortal Realm.

• Xuan Qinghua and Immortal Eight agreed that the matter was too important to keep from the Dao Immortals, though Xuan Qinghua wanted them to seek out the man themselves.

• Xuan Qinghua and Immortal Eight decided to report the matter upward.

Xuan Qinghua and Immortal Eight received the Immortal Dao Sect’s order to investigate Zhao Fu without antagonizing or interfering with him, because he was tied to an ancient secret and future upheaval in the Immortal Realm. Immortal Eight questioned five saint-grade geniuses about Zhao Fu, warned them to keep silent, and sent them away wondering what their connection to him would mean.

• Xuan Qinghua and Immortal Eight received an Immortal Decree ordering them to keep Zhao Fu’s matter secret, send over a thousand immortals to the lower realm, investigate him, and leave him free to choose whether to join the sect.

Xuan Qinghua and Immortal Eight led more than a thousand immortals through the Immortal Gates to search the mortal realm for the mysterious person. Their arrival in the Great Immortal Rift terrified everyone nearby, and the immortals and Forbidden Land creatures fled.

• The Holy Sons speculated that the mysterious senior would eventually ascend to the Immortal Realm and resolved to focus on their own cultivation.

• People and Forbidden Land creatures fled after realizing that immortals had descended to the mortal realm.

The Immortal Dao Sect’s unprecedented dispatch of a thousand immortals stirred alarm across both realms, though no one knew its purpose. Unaware that the commotion centered on him, Zhao Fu searched for a Half-Immortal Realm while a mysterious gaze altered his destiny and watched Hao Dao in the Immortal Realm.

• Factions across the Immortal and Mortal Realms reacted to the Immortal Dao Sect sending a thousand immortals below, but even its ordinary higher-ups did not know why.
• After nearly being captured by Immortal Eight, Zhao Fu left the Great Immortal Rift and continued searching for a suitable place to build a Teleportation Array.
• Having found no suitable locations in the four Immortal Realm rifts, Zhao Fu used a map to search remote Half-Immortal Realms instead.
• At the center of Apocalypse World, a pair of eyes watched the descending immortals, then secretly sent force into Zhao Fu’s destiny without him, Di Xi, or the Great Void Patriarch noticing.
• The mysterious gaze turned to Hao Dao, who planned to report his training results and his encounter with Zhao Fu to his master.

Zhao Fu searched for a Half-Immortal Realm until the Great Void Patriarch revealed that one lay on the hidden eleventh floor of the Great Void Ruins. After Zhao Fu returned to Great Qin, the Patriarch began opening the ruins so Zhao Fu could take control of them, leaving factions across nearby domains confused by the sudden purple radiance.

• The Great Void Ruins opened, but the Great Void Tokens did not react, leaving Bing Qixue, Volcano, Shi Shuge, You Qianyue, Long Yang, and others puzzled.
• The jade flute carried Zhao Fu into the Silver Forest, where the Great Void Patriarch explained that damage to the ruins meant Zhao Fu had to proceed from the first level to the tenth.
• Zhao Fu passed through the Silver Forest and the ninth, eighth, seventh, and sixth levels as the Void Beasts sensed the Patriarch’s aura and prostrated themselves.
• At the fifth level, Zhao Fu saw the ruined settlement and heard the Great Void Patriarch sigh over the people who had once lived there.
• Zhao Fu continued to the fourth level and arrived at a huge redwood door decorated with golden flowers and birds.
