Chapter Summary: Crossing into the Heavenly Martial Continent

Key Plot Points and Events

• Su Fang is publicly punished by Violet Star Palace after being accused of colluding with the Demon Cult saintess, Ning Weiwei, murdering fellow disciples, and helping steal a transported treasure.
• His cultivation is crippled, and he is sentenced to spend the rest of his life sweeping graves in the ominous Gods and Devils Cemetery.
• As he collapses, Su Fang’s memories merge with those of the body’s original owner. He realizes he has transmigrated into the high-martial Heavenly Martial Continent after dying in an earthquake.

• The Gods and Devils Cemetery is revealed to be a forbidden, death-filled realm containing the remains of many legendary figures. Prisoners sent there generally die within three years, while those with crippled cultivation may survive only days.
