Chapter Summaries

Yuan Yan and Heavenly Dao Hongjun negotiated for centuries over how to stop the war between the Earth Court and the Demon Clan. They agreed that Hongjun would lend Yuan Yan the Jade Disc of Creation for one thousand Epochs in exchange for his intervention and a three-thousand-Epoch truce, leaving Yuan Yan pleased with the bargain.

• Yuan Yan considered the consequences of refusing Hongjun and planned how the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage could protect itself or seize power if the conflict escalated.
• Yuan Yan and Heavenly Dao Hongjun argued without yielding for several hundred years in a Special Spacetime Dimension.
• Heavenly Dao Hongjun conceded that Yuan Yan should intervene rather than let the Demon Clan be destroyed or intervene himself.
• Yuan Yan and Heavenly Dao Hongjun agreed that Hongjun would lend him the Jade Disc of Creation for one thousand Epochs.
• Yuan Yan agreed to stop the battle and restrict the Demon Clan to governing the heavens and the Earth Court to governing the land, with neither side starting another conflict for Three Thousand Epochs.
• Yuan Yan judged that the borrowed Jade Disc of Creation could greatly accelerate cultivation for him, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa.

Yuan Yan reached an agreement with the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun to intervene in the battle between the Earth Court and the Demon Clan in exchange for borrowing the Jade Disc of Creation for a thousand Epochs. He realized the Heavenly Dao would keep checking the growing Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, leaving him to consider how to protect its future without slowing its rise.

• Yuan Yan decided he could accept the risk of angering the Witch Clan or Houtu if the reward for intervening was great enough.
• The Heavenly Dao and Hongjun reluctantly agreed to lend Yuan Yan the Jade Disc of Creation for a thousand Epochs, then departed after Hongjun warned him that the Heavenly Dao valued balance above all.
• Yuan Yan divined the Heavenly Secrets and understood that the Heavenly Dao was trying to prevent the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage from dominating the Primordial World.
• Yuan Yan worried that the Heavenly Dao would restrict the lineage as Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Nuwa, and Fuxi grew stronger, but he refused to hold back their cultivation.

Yuan Yan decided to divide the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage into branches to ease the Heavenly Dao’s suppression without restraining anyone’s cultivation. As the Earth Court and Demon Clan battle turned against Di Jun and Taiyi, the Twelve Ancestral Witches prepared to kill them, but an overwhelming pressure froze the battlefield before the strike landed.

• Yuan Yan planned for Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Nuwa, and Fuxi to lead separate branches of the lineage, while Yuan Ling would eventually venture into Outer Chaos.
• After Dao Ancestor Hongjun left, Yuan Yan let the Special Spacetime Dimension dissolve and returned his divine-sense incarnation to his true body.
• Di Jun and Taiyi used the Primordial River-Luo Grand Formation and the Zhou Tian Star Formation to attack the Star Gods, but the Pangu True Body shielded them.
• The Pangu True Body shattered both formations, leaving Di Jun, Taiyi, and their Three Corpse Dao Bodies gravely injured.
• Dijiang urged the Twelve Ancestral Witches to finish off Di Jun and Taiyi, and they raised the Heaven-Splitting Divine Axe.
• An irresistible pressure spread across the battlefield and froze spacetime before the axe could fall.

Yuan Yan intervened just as the Pangu True Body was about to destroy the Demon Clan, invoking a Heavenly Dao Edict to end the battle. He revealed to the Ancestral Witches that Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao had pressured him to intervene, leaving them furious at Hongjun rather than at Yuan Yan.

• As the Pangu True Body brought down its Heaven-Splitting Strike, Yuan Yan appeared on a Twenty-Fourth-Rank Creation Azure Lotus and stopped the attack.
• Yuan Yan separated the Earth Court and Demon Clan, then ordered them to end the battle and govern the earth and heavens respectively, with neither side starting a war for three thousand epochs.
• Di Jun, Taiyi, and the Demon Clan accepted the Heavenly Dao's order, while Zhurong angrily challenged Yuan Yan and threatened him.
• Yuan Yan ignored Zhurong and sent Jiufeng and the Pangu True Body images showing Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao had compelled him to intervene.
• Yuan Yan warned the Ancestral Witches that he could cripple them and profit from their fight with the Demon Clan; they accepted his images as genuine and turned their anger toward Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao.

Yuan Yan ended the war between the Demon Clan and Earth Court, ordering the Demon Clan to govern the heavens and Earth Court to govern the earth for three thousand Epochs. After both sides accepted his decree, the Demon Clan and Earth Court withdrew from the Boundless Starry Sky, leaving its remaining Star Gods behind.

• Yuan Yan repeated his decree that neither side could start a war without cause for three thousand Epochs, and Di Jun and Taiyi agreed on behalf of the Demon Clan.
• The Twelve Ancestral Witches dispersed the Pangu True Body, and the Thirteen Ancestral Witches accepted Yuan Yan’s command.
• Yuan Yan vanished, and the unaligned Star Gods of the Boundless Starry Sky disappeared with him.
• Di Jun and Taiyi led the Demon Clan back to the Thirty-Three Heavens, deciding to recruit the remaining Star Gods later rather than attack them while weakened.
• Dijiang led the Ancestral Witches and Earth Court cultivators away through a passage in space.

Yuan Yan brought more than fifty Star Gods to Inner Chaos and asked what they thought of the Earth Court and the Demon Clan. After Xi He explained that she and Changxi could not aid the Demon Clan because of their oaths to the Witch Clan, Yuan Yan clarified that he had not summoned them to recruit them.

• Yuan Yan transported more than fifty Star Gods, including Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light, to Inner Chaos, where they bowed to him.
• Yuan Yan asked the Star Gods what they thought of the Earth Court and the Demon Clan, leading them to suspect he wanted them to join the Demon Clan.
• Xi He said the Demon Clan might rival the Earth Court if it perfected the Zhou Tian Star Formation, but she and Changxi could never join or aid it because of their oaths to the Witch Clan.
• Yuan Yan told the Star Gods he had not summoned them to advocate for the Demon Clan or recruit them, adding that Di Jun and Taiyi were not worthy of that.

Yuan Yan explained that the Demon Clan and Earth Court were forbidden to fight for Three Thousand Epochs, but warned the Star Gods that the Demon Clan would prepare to destroy the Earth Court and could attack them without its protection. The Star Gods chose different ways to survive, with most refusing to join the Demon Clan.

• Yuan Yan told the Star Gods that the Demon Clan would govern the heavens and the Earth Court the land until their decisive battle after Three Thousand Epochs, and warned that the Earth Court could not protect them from another Demon Clan attack.
• The Star Gods weighed joining the Demon Clan, Earth Court, or Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, leaving the Boundless Starry Sky, or defending their Primordial Stars to the death.
• Taiwei, Greedy Wolf, and other Star Gods decided to join the Earth Court, while Yinghuo, Jidu, and others chose to join the Demon Clan.
• Gou Chen, Water Virtue, and other Star Gods planned to seek refuge with the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, while Heavenly Market and Hidden Radiance chose to leave the Boundless Starry Sky and cultivate in seclusion.
• Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light remained undecided between seeking refuge with Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage and defending their stars, and only a tiny minority of Star Gods chose the Demon Clan.

Yuan Yan invited the Star Gods to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage and offered them protection, while many remained undecided. After freezing the others in spacetime, he answered Purple Light’s question about whether she and the Moon Star Lords could keep their stars if they joined.

• Thirteen Star Gods immediately agreed to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, and fifteen more followed soon after.
• Yuan Yan noticed that Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light had not agreed, but he chose not to force them to join.
• Purple Light, Xi He, and Changxi asked Yuan Yan to dismiss the other Star Gods so they could question him privately.
• Yuan Yan froze spacetime around the other Star Gods and invited the three Star Lords to ask their questions.
• Purple Light asked whether they could keep Ziwei Star and Moon Star if they joined, and Yuan Yan assured her they could.

Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light joined the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage after Yuan Yan assured them they could keep the Moon Star and Ziwei Star. Yuan Yan appointed them Deputy Sect Leaders, and they accepted their new standing in the lineage.

• Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light stopped hesitating after Yuan Yan promised not to make them abandon their homes.
• Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light bowed and asked Yuan Yan to accept them into the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage.
• Yuan Yan appointed the three of them Deputy Sect Leaders, equal in rank to the Queen Mother of the West and beneath only the six Sect Leaders.
• Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light thanked Yuan Yan and accepted their positions.
• Yuan Yan told them they could address him as a fellow Daoist or Sect Leader, and they agreed.

Yuan Yan learned why Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light knew secrets of the Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, then arranged the Star Gods’ return and gave instructions to those who joined his lineage. He resumed cultivating with the Jade Disc of Creation while supporting his companions’ plan to purify the Northern Continent’s Earth Veins and gain Merit and Fortune.

• Xi He, Changxi, and Purple Light explained that they had learned about the ancient Star Gods from inheritances left on the Moon Star and Ziwei Star.
• After Yuan Yan released the Star Gods, six more joined the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, leaving eighteen who refused.
• Yuan Yan sent the unwilling Star Gods away and instructed the thirty-odd who joined to let Di Jun use Stellar Origin in the Zhou Tian Star Formation in exchange for reasonable compensation, then follow Fuxi’s arrangements.
• Yuan Yan returned to his formation, resumed devouring Chaos Qi, and used the Jade Disc of Creation to deepen his cultivation.
• Yuan Yan supported Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa in prioritizing the purification and rebuilding of the Northern Continent’s Earth Veins before studying the Jade Disc.

Yuan Yan informed Yuan Jie and the others that Xi He, Changxi, Purple Light, and more than thirty Star Gods wanted to join the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage, then urged them to finish their plan quickly. After the Northern Continent’s innate earth veins were fully purified, Yuan Jie and the others stopped trying to conceal their work and adjusted their formations to cleanse the remaining innate fiendish qi.

• Yuan Yan calculated that his cultivation would advance far faster after his breakthrough and sent word about the Star Gods’ arrival and his offer to lend the Jade Disc of Creation.
• Fuxi welcomed Purple Light, Xi He, Changxi, and the Star Gods into the lineage and assigned them duties as Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa accelerated their work.
• Yuan Jie and the others purified the Northern Continent’s innate earth veins completely in less than two epochs, restoring vitality to the continent and making their actions detectable.
• Knowing their work could no longer remain hidden, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa adjusted their formations to absorb and purify the continent’s free-floating innate fiendish qi.

As the Five of Yuan Jie and the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage reconstructed the Northern Continent’s earth vein network, hundreds of mighty figures tried to seize land or force their way into the undertaking. Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Nuwa, and Fuxi slaughtered them, leaving the world wary of challenging the lineage.

• The Five of Yuan Jie and the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage guided and relocated the Northern Continent’s Innate Earth Veins, preparing to build the Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation.
• Mighty figures across the Primordial World learned of the plan, and several hundred Daluo golden immortals and three corpse Dao bodies of Quasi-Sages and primordial origin golden immortals intervened to claim land or offer help.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa sensed the intrusion and led the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage’s primordial origin golden immortals into battle without summoning Yuan Yan.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling slew the Quasi-Sages and primordial origin golden immortals with single strikes, while Nuwa and Fuxi led the lineage in killing the Daluo golden immortals.
• The Primordial World’s mighty figures feared the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage after its forces erased the intruders and their chances of resurrection.

Yuan Yan and the Five of Yuan Jie activated the Northern Continent’s rebuilt earth vein network and established the Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation. The formation began drawing in chaos qi and reached the peak of the second-layer Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal realm.

• The Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage cleared the remaining obstacles and completed the Northern Continent’s earth vein preparations and array patterns in fewer than ten epochs.
• Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa gathered above the Changbai Mountain Range and activated the measures linking the innate earth veins into a circulating network.
• The Northern Continent’s earth veins began drawing in and converting chaos qi more than sixty percent faster, filling the continent with vitality and Dao intent.
• Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage cultivators across the Northern Continent activated the Formation Flags and linked them with the Great Dao Array Patterns.
• The Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation covered the Northern Continent, concentrated its power, and reached the peak of the second-layer Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal realm.

Yuan Yan and the others concealed the completed Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation within a special spacetime dimension and reported their work to heaven and earth. The Heavenly Dao approved and began distributing immense merit among the six leaders and the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage.

• Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa operated the Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation, strengthening the Northern Continent's earth veins and resolving hidden dangers.
• Yuan Yan concealed the formation within a special spacetime dimension and moved the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage cultivators into position above the Changbai Mountain Range.
• Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa proclaimed that they had cleansed and restored the Northern Continent and established the formation.
• The Heavenly Dao responded with auspicious phenomena and gathered a vast sea of merit above the Northern Continent.
• The merit descended in portions upon Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa, with Yuan Yan receiving the largest share.

The merit bestowed for restoring the Northern Continent strengthened its earth veins and formation while giving Yuan Yan, Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Fuxi, and Nuwa a chance to advance. After the merit ran out, Nuwa spent her reserves to reenter her epiphany and continue toward sainthood.

• The final merit cluster strengthened the Northern Continent's earth veins and raised the Heaven-Earth Origin-Returning Formation Flags to Half-Step Postnatal Merit Supreme Treasure.
• Yuan Yan perfected another primordial Great Dao, then stopped using merit so Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling could advance and retain enough to repay their karmic debt.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling fully merged with their three corpse Dao bodies, transformed into lower-tier chaos gods and demons, and reached the third-layer Hunyuan Great Firmament golden immortal realm.
• Fuxi reached the peak of the twelfth-layer primordial golden immortal realm, while his three corpse Dao bodies advanced to the eleventh layer.
• Nuwa advanced her three corpse Dao bodies to the twelfth layer and merged with less than thirty percent of them before the merit ran out.
• Nuwa burned large amounts of Heavenly Dao merit to reenter her epiphany and continue perfecting her primordial Dao fruit so she could break through and attain the Dao as a saint.

Nuwa burned through her accumulated merit to merge her three corpse Dao bodies and advance to half-step Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal. The chapter ended with her exhausted of merit but at the peak of the first layer of Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal.

• Nuwa chose to attain sagehood before becoming a primordial Daluo golden immortal so she could make greater gains from studying the Jade Disc of Creation.
• Yuan Yan focused the Jade Disc of Creation’s blessing on Nuwa, helping her merge nearly eighty percent of her three corpse Dao bodies in moments.
• Nuwa perfected her Creation Dao and advanced to half-step Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal, then continued burning merit to complete the merger.
• Nuwa completely merged her three corpse Dao bodies, and her innate origin began transforming toward that of a chaos god and demon.
• Nuwa exhausted all her merit and reached the peak of the first layer of Hunyuan great firmament golden immortal, then opened her eyes as life surged across the surrounding land.

Nuwa and Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling reached the threshold of sagehood, while Fuxi weighed whether to spend his merit advancing immediately or preserve it for a more efficient path to the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal realm. He decided that the short-term gains were not worth delaying his eventual breakthrough.

• Fuxi congratulated Nuwa and his three elder brothers after they completed the fusion of their three corpse Dao bodies and neared attainment.
• Nuwa told Fuxi that restoring the Northern Continent would eventually provide enough merit and fortune for him to attain the realm.
• Fuxi considered spending most of his merit to mature his Dao fruit and reach the half-step Hunyuan Great Firmament Golden Immortal realm sooner.
• Fuxi calculated that preserving his merit while studying the Jade Disc of Creation and helping restore the Northern Continent would lead to a faster eventual breakthrough.
• Fuxi chose not to spend his merit prematurely, though he still regretted missing the immediate cultivation gains.

Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling repaid their karmic debts and proved the Dao as Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals, becoming the fourth, fifth, and sixth such figures from the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage. Their breakthroughs alarmed the Primordial World's other factions, while Nuwa and Fuxi remained poised to follow.

• Yuan Yan urged Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, and Nuwa to prove the Dao promptly and leave for the Inner Chaos rather than incur more karma in the Primordial World.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling manifested their Dao Fruits and Merit Golden Wheels, and the Eye of the Heavenly Dao approved their repayment of karmic debts.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling fused their true spirits, Dao Fruits, and ancestral qi, then each proclaimed that he had proved the Dao as a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.
• Their auras and auspicious signs spread across more than half the Primordial World, leaving the Demon Clan, the Earth Court, the Three Pure Ones, and Jieyin anxious about the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage's growing power.
• Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, and Yuan Ling reined in their auras above the ancestral vein of Changbai Mountain on the Northern Continent.

Nuwa refined the Hongmeng Purple Qi, received the Heavenly Dao’s power, and attained sagehood as a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal. She reunited with Yuan Yan and the others, while she and Yuan Yan both recalled their promise to become Dao Companions after attaining the Dao.

• Nuwa imprinted her Creation Dao into the Hongmeng Purple Qi, which connected her Great Dao to the Heavenly Dao and began forming a Heavenly Dao Saint Fruit Position.
• The Heavenly Dao’s feedback elevated Nuwa’s comprehension to the second-layer Hunyuan Great Firmament Golden Immortal level, and she used her authority to lift the restrictions of heaven and earth.
• Nuwa fused her innate imperishable true spirit, primordial Dao fruit, and Hunyuan ancestral qi into an imperishable primordial spirit, attaining the Dao as a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal and Sage.
• Nuwa announced her attainment to the Primordial World, and her sage pressure and wondrous phenomena briefly reached living beings throughout the world.
• Nuwa told Yuan Yan and the others that she had attained the Dao, and she and Yuan Yan recalled their promise to become Dao Companions once both had attained the Dao.

Yuan Yan decided that Fuxi would leave a divine sense avatar to oversee the Yingzhou Immortal Island Lineage while the six entered the Inner Chaos to cultivate. Before they departed, Yuan Yan proposed sharing the Jade Disc of Creation’s blessing with the lineage’s cultivators, but Fuxi pointed out that their plans could leave the Northern Continent’s construction and formations without enough leaders.

• Fuxi offered to leave one of his three corpse Dao bodies behind, but Nuwa urged him to prioritize cultivating with the Jade Disc of Creation.
• Yuan Yan decided that Fuxi would leave a Daluo golden immortal-level divine sense avatar to manage the lineage, and Fuxi accepted.
• Nuwa and the others agreed to enter the Inner Chaos to absorb chaos qi and sustain their transformations.
• Yuan Yan proposed letting lineage cultivators at Daluo golden immortal level and promising talents study the Jade Disc of Creation’s blessing for one thousand epochs.
• Fuxi supported expanding the opportunity but warned that the lineage still needed powerful cultivators to build cities and operate formations across the Northern Continent.
