Summary: Creation of the Three Thousand Immortal Provinces

Key Plot Points & Events

1. Power Shift After the Great Reclamation — The Ancient Myriad Clans of the Three Thousand Immortal Provinces have grown vastly stronger from accumulated treasures. Their Imperial ancestors issue a decree: cultivators from the Three Thousand Immortal Domains are forbidden from entering the Three Thousand Immortal Provinces.
2. Escalating Conflict — Since the Domains lack unified leadership (no Great Dao Alliance), they cannot respond as one. Taigu cultivators in the Domains are slaughtered or flee, and retaliatory killings against Ancient Myriad Clans cultivators follow. The Immortal Realm's peaceful era slowly collapses amid spiraling violence.
3. Chen Xun and Black Bull's Journey — The two dock their Boundary-Breaking Boat. Chen Xun's snow-white eyes (which had been tranquil for countless eons) dissolve, marking a personal change. They watch a sapling grow into a towering tree over the course of a year, during which the world shifts around them.
4. Witnessing New Immortal Continents — Powerful cultivators outside the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory have discovered means to "create" Immortal Veins. Chen Xun observes floating immortal continents but notes they lack the distinctive quality of Heavenly Wheel's work.
5. The Mining Operation — They witness massive Immortal Gates descending, where beings of the Ancient Myriad Clans drive Taigu cultivators to extract Immortal Marrow from floating immortal continents. Each cultivator receives a Mountains-and-Rivers Talisman recording their vital aura. Chen Xun recognizes these laborers aren't natives of the Three Thousand Immortal Provinces but foreign beings brought in as "Immortal Realm miners."
6. Rescue of a Foreign Boy — A strange gray-skinned boy nearly drowns in the river. Chen Xun saves him, befriends him, and shows him the boat.
7. Revelation of Imperial Expansion — The boy explains he's from a foreign territory. The Three Thousand Immortal Provinces are seen as a "super Immortal Kingdom" of dazzling civilization. Foreign beings crush their own Immortal Dao civilizations, sell themselves as labor, and shatter their cultural heritage just for the chance to enter this realm — becoming "Immortal Realm miners" in the process.
