Summary: Chapter "Sand Sea"

1. Key Plot Points & Events

• A cultivator from the "Chaos Sea" (a vast, dangerous region) unexpectedly finds himself treated as a honored guest in the "Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory," where disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect welcome him warmly—contrary to the strict hierarchy he knows from home.
• An immensely powerful "Ancient Immortal" (an old master) strikes the Great Dao Immortal with a single palm blast, revealing terrifying physical strength. He then refines a massive "Primordial Ore Vein" into his body, boosting his blood vitality to monstrous levels—so much so that his aura causes the very heavens to tremble—before departing into the Chaos Sea.
• The outsider Great Dao Immortal is recruited by the Five Aggregates Sect, gaining access to their secret realms. He eventually ventures into one of these realms and never returns.
• The Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory begins large-scale military/exploratory preparations, launching countless immortal arks into the Chaos Sea to expand their reach.
• Elsewhere, Chen Xun and Black Bull stand within a desolate, lifeless "Sand Sea." Black Bull tests the environment with an array flag, confirming the strange land shows "potential." Chen Xun casually grabs a handful of the destructive sand—demonstrating his supreme cultivation—but instead of rejoicing over its value, he falls into thoughtful contemplation.

• Resource & Expansion: The territory views the Chaos Sea with both curiosity and ambition, sending fleets to map and claim it.

4. Character Interactions

• Ancient Immortal vs. Chaos Sea Great Dao Immortal: A one-sided demonstration of power (a single palm strike), shocking all witnesses and ironically "reassuring" the victim that the world is still harsh and hierarchical.
• Five Aggregates Sect disciples vs. Outsider: They flatter and court him, giving him access to secret realms—partly genuine hospitality, partly ruthlessly pragmatic recruitment.

Chapter Summary: We Were Set Up by the Immortal Realm

Key Plot Points

• The "Infinite Calamity of All Living Beings"—a catastrophic invasion of ferocious beasts from the Immortal Realm into the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory—rapidly turns into a one-sided slaughter against the invaders. The Eternal Ancient forces are overwhelmingly powerful; the beasts are annihilated as they pour through void tears and teleportation arrays.
• Frog Daoist (the legendary "Chi Immortal Great General") returns, unleashing his signature spiritual power before the Eternal Ancient Myriad Beasts. He commands them to find the hidden teleportation array deep in the void and leave none of the Immortal Realm ferocious beasts alive.
• The ferocious beasts quickly realize they have been deceived—they beg for mercy, shouting that the Immortal Realm orchestrated this scheme to make the two sides slaughter each other. Eventually, even the beasts begin trying to control their own reinforcements, with Myriad Beasts Mountain taking charge of the situation.
• One year later, heaven and earth expand violently throughout the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory, bringing unprecedented fortune. The Three Thousand Star Domains transform from desolate void into a Chaos Sea-like realm rich in immortal qi.
• A mysterious swordsman—a "killing god"—bursts onto the scene, slaughtering ferocious beasts from the Eternal Ancient Polar Region all the way across the territory. He refuses all pleas of "misunderstanding," yet casts a single, complicated glance at the Eternal Ancient mountains and rivers before killing even more savagely.
• The Heaven and Earth Origin of Eternal Ancient surges into Nangong Hueling, feeding her as if the world itself were chasing after her to bestow fortune. Her Yin-Yang Strange Eyes awaken a profound Great Dao understanding—suggesting she may prove the Dao and enter the True Immortal Stage, giving the Eternal Ancient an exceptionally clear True Immortal Path.
• A short cultivator opens an ancient immortal platform sealed for countless ages, laughing maniacally: "The ancient history of Immortal Realm Time spanning tens of millions of years... how could this Dao Master possibly bear it? Hehe, how could I bear it... Hahaha!"—a cryptic hint at some hidden ancient scheme.

Character Developments

• Frog Daoist: Returns as the venerated Chi Immortal Great General, rallying the Myriad Beasts; takes decisive command of ending the calamity.
• Nangong Hueling: Undergoes a massive transcendence—heaven and earth itself pours its origin into her, bringing her to the brink of True Immortal enlightenment (to the delight of the Five Aggregates Immortal Sect elders).
• The unnamed swordsman: A figure of overwhelming arrogance and killing intent; his complicated emotional glance at the Eternal Ancient mountains suggests deep personal history there—he kills without mercy yet seems moved by the land itself.
• The short cultivator: Newly awakened from a sealed immortal platform, speaking of ancient Immortal Realm history in an unstable, manic manner—implied to be an ancient figure bearing some heavy burden.

Significant Themes

• "All fear stems from insufficient strength"—the calamity becomes "ordinary" because the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory simply outmatches its invaders; what destroyed the ancient Supreme Unity Immortal Court is nothing here.
• Manipulation and misunderstanding—the Immortal Realm deliberately set up both sides to destroy each other, turning the "calamity" into a tool of mutual annihilation; beasts beg for mercy claiming it's a setup.
