After Badan defeated the Demon Race, Chen Qiu learned that Badan had borrowed his Yin Emperor Fortune and now needed to obtain another strand for the Bai Family head. He traveled to the polluted Peihong Continent, where its inhabitants’ shared traits let even a Qi Refinement farmer deliver a blow powerful enough to numb Chen Qiu’s arm, and heard about the even more violent Seven Madam Continent, where everyone was born with three rainbow traits.

• After Chen Qiu's group departed, the Li Family head tested his resurrected wife Fei'er and realized her perfect answers concealed a change in temperament, so he ran after the immortals shouting for help.

Chen Qiu destroyed the Li Family courtyard and confronted the Weird Buddha, suspecting it had manipulated him by directing him to the Seven Madam Continent. After the Weird Buddha explained the Li Family’s ghostly history and its own rules, Chen Qiu agreed to talk, leaving its identity and ambitions exposed but their conflict unresolved.

• Chen Qiu struck the courtyard with heavenly lightning, destroying it and revealing the Weird Buddha, which denied plotting against him and agreed to talk.

Chen Qiu began planning to protect his group’s secret, while Weird Buddha revealed more about his race and introduced himself as Mopan.

• Chen Qiu challenged Weird Buddha for knowing his name, and Weird Buddha admitted that he had recognized Chen Qiu from his reputation and wanted to avoid becoming his enemy.
• Weird Buddha explained that his Evil Demon race used its thirty-one-bead rosaries to fulfill wishes through equivalent exchange, but warned that a host had little chance of survival after the twentieth bead lit.
• Chen Qiu asked whether Weird Buddhas could transmit information and items across continents, and Weird Buddha disclosed that the race could not contact one missing member before telling the group his name was Mopan.

Chen Qiu learned that Weird Buddha had Immortal Cancer and arranged for his people to travel between First-Grade Continents in exchange for the Fortune of the Yin Soul needed to save him. As six teams departed to spread Chen Qiu’s name, the Bai Family patriarch revealed that his daughter’s mother was an actual immortal maiden.

• Weird Buddha explained that he had contracted Immortal Cancer, had only three years left to live, and needed three more strands of Fortune of the Yin Soul to obtain Yin Emperor Fortune.

• After Weird Buddha left, Chen Qiu told the Bai Family patriarch that his daughter might be an immortal’s reincarnated body, and the patriarch revealed that her mother was an actual immortal maiden.

Chen Qiu went to the Wang Family to investigate a Netherworld Collapse and discovered that a group of cultivators had destroyed Pingxi Continent and planned to destroy the other Lower-Rank Continents, including his homeland, Mystic Heaven Continent. He captured them and brought the Wang Family into his Minor World, but the Wang Family head he hoped to question was already dead, while Xiong Gao began interrogating the captives.

• Chen Qiu captured the group and the Wang Family, then discovered that the Wang Family head, Wang Yi, had been murdered before he could question him.
• Xiong Gao began preparing to interrogate the captives using torture devices he had made.

Xiong Gao tortured a captured Body Integration Realm elder until he revealed that Drunken Flower Manor was accelerating the collapse of Vast Continent’s twelve Lower-Rank Continents to gather Fortune of the Yin Soul. The Bai Family Patriarch offered Chen Qiu the family’s Spirit Stones in exchange for his protection, and Chen Qiu agreed while seeking a way to keep Drunken Flower Manor at bay for five years.

• Xiong Gao intensified the captive elder’s pain with torture devices until the elder confessed that Drunken Flower Manor was behind the continent destructions and that its Manor Lord might be suffering from Immortal Cancer.
• The elder explained that Drunken Flower Manor used native sword bearers and Soul-Sealing Pearls to collapse continents and harvest their Fortune of the Yin Soul.
• Chen Qiu weighed the danger of opposing Drunken Flower Manor, while the Bai Family Patriarch proposed buying five years to cultivate by handing over Fortune of the Yin Soul and reporting false progress.
• The Bai Family Patriarch revealed a vast reserve of Spirit Stones and offered to fund Chen Qiu’s cultivation in exchange for a thousand years of protection and three requests for his aid.
• Chen Qiu accepted the Bai Family’s offer but rejected the plan to supply Fortune of the Yin Soul, proposing instead to fabricate a powerful figure to deter Drunken Flower Manor.
• Chen Qiu asked Fat Dragon to devise a believable way to keep Drunken Flower Manor away from Mystic Heaven Continent for five years.

Chen Qiu learned that Drunken Flower Manor had been wiped out by a mass outbreak of Immortal Cancer, gathered Fortune of the Yin Soul, and prepared to enter a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm before pursuing ascension. While relaxing on Jiang Taiping Continent, he heard the story of Jiang Taiping, a prodigy born with nine Rainbow Traits to an Immortal Emperor.

• Xiong Gao reported that everyone in Drunken Flower Manor had suddenly died from Immortal Cancer, and Chen Qiu ordered his remaining captives killed and the Wang Family group returned home.
• Chen Qiu staged his death on Endless Continent, entered its Yin Realm, and collected Fortune of the Yin Soul there and on three other First-Grade Continents.
• Chen Qiu told the Bai Family head that he would help his daughter remove her Immortal Cancer after entering the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, then failed to break free of Mystic Heaven Continent's shackles.
• Badan visited Chen Qiu, reported his victory as chief of the Fifth-Grade Immortal Realm's Barbarian Race, and returned one strand of Yin Emperor Fortune.
• Badan explained that Drunken Flower Manor's mass deaths had raised fears that Immortal Cancer could be a targeted Heavenly Dao attack, and Chen Qiu suspected the faction's assault on Pingxi Continent was connected.
• Badan recounted that Jiang Taiping was an ancient prodigy born with nine Rainbow Traits to an Immortal Emperor, whose Dao Protectors helped him rise through the Immortal Realms.

Badan told Chen Qiu that the Heavenly Dao’s possible loss of impartiality had alarmed powerful figures, while Chen Qiu suspected Mocking Heaven Sect had imprisoned itself to escape the Heavenly Dao’s control. After Badan revealed that a Fairy had reacted with terror to Mocking Heaven Sect’s name, she sought out her one-night husband on Vast Continent, learned about Chen Qiu and the sect, and realized her ancestor’s connection to Mocking Heaven Sect might explain her family’s debt.

• Badan explained that people feared the Heavenly Dao might act freely, turning cultivators into puppets by stripping away their Traits or imposing Immortal Cancer, and Chen Qiu considered why Mocking Heaven Sect had imprisoned itself.
• Badan told Chen Qiu that his Fairy friend, the Wei Prince, had become terrified after hearing that Chen Qiu led Mocking Heaven Sect, then left Chen Qiu a Voice-Transmission Ring.
• The Wei Prince recalled that Fairies alone still remembered Mocking Heaven Sect because an outer sect junior elder had aided them and created the Repaying-Kindness Blessing, then descended to Vast Continent to find her one-night husband.
• The Fairy learned that the ancestor of Peaceful Prefecture had Mocking Heaven Sect carved beneath his family plaque and asked him to recount everything he knew about Chen Qiu and the sect.
• The Peaceful Prefecture patriarch arranged for a storyteller to recount Chen Qiu’s history, while the Fairy explained that the original Mocking Heaven Sect had vanished from everyone’s memories thirty thousand years earlier.
• The Peaceful Prefecture patriarch reconsidered joining Mocking Heaven Sect, and the Fairy asked how many Fairies had come to repay him.

A woman learned that Chen Qiu’s rise on the Mystic Heaven Continent might connect to a Mocking Heaven Sect erased from most people’s memories, and she decided to investigate. Meanwhile, Chen Qiu brought Yin Emperor Fortune to the Bai Family to save the Bai Family daughter, but the divine physician demanded twenty million Spirit Stones and revealed the Bai Family’s danger from Soaring Pavilion.

• The Buddhist Sect ancestor and Azure Mountain Palace ancestor sold the woman information about Chen Qiu’s early days, including his rescue in Deathbind Town and an old warning about the Mocking Heaven Sect.
• The woman decided to visit the Mystic Heaven Continent and told the Peaceful Prefecture ancestor that Drunken Flower Manor had accelerated Pingxi Continent’s collapse before promising to help protect him if he was threatened.
• Chen Qiu returned to the Celestial Palace, then delivered Badan’s strand of Yin Emperor Fortune to the Bai Family and urged the Bai Family head to contact a divine physician.
• The divine physician confirmed the Yin Emperor Fortune could be used to make a pill for the Bai Family daughter, then demanded twenty million Spirit Stones and warned that Soaring Pavilion might target the Bai Family head.
• Chen Qiu challenged the divine physician’s price and asked whether a physician in the Fifth-Grade Immortal Realm could refine the pill.

Chen Qiu learned that the Evergreen Continent was nearing collapse after its inhabitants received a button that traded a random death for one Spirit Stone, and agreed to enter it with Badan to gather the resulting fortune. As Chen Qiu prepared to go, Mopan revealed that the Evil Demon Race had already mobilized on the continent to collect Spirit Stones.

• Chen Qiu summoned Lin Xiaobei, who refined two pills to cure the Bai Family head's daughter, while the miracle physician recognized Lin Xiaobei and reconsidered how pill refiners should pursue strength and opportunities.
• Badan warned Chen Qiu that the Heavenly Dao's disorder had caused the Bai Family head's daughter to contract Immortal Cancer, and the Bai Family head later reported that she had been cured.
• Lin Xiaobei told Chen Qiu that the Heavenly Dao had given every living being on the Evergreen Continent a button that could earn one Spirit Stone by killing someone at random, leading to mass deaths and the continent's imminent collapse.
• Badan asked Chen Qiu to help gather Spirit Stones from the doomed Evergreen Continent, offered him seventy percent of what he collected, and explained the limited time, dangers, and escape tools.
• Chen Qiu agreed to go to the Evergreen Continent, discussed the deadly button with Fat Dragon, and contacted Mopan, who said the Evil Demon Race was already collecting Spirit Stones there.

Chen Qiu led the Barbarian Race and his companions into the collapsing Evergreen Continent to collect Spirit Stones before it became inaccessible. After seeing the continent’s slaughtered cities, he began sweeping up its wealth and discovered he could spend Spirit Stones to expand his Minor World, leaving the shopkeeper with a mountain of restrictions to crack.

• Chen Qiu asked Weird Buddha to guide him and the Barbarian Race into Evergreen Continent, and Badan brought tens of thousands of Sky-Piercing Giants to join him.
• Weird Buddha guided the group to the blood-soaked continent, divided the cities between the Evil Demon Race and Chen Qiu’s party, and warned them to leave before the continent collapsed.
• Chen Qiu sent the Barbarian Race and his six Mocking Heaven Sect teams to search separate routes while he led Fat Dragon and the others toward distant cities.
• Chen Qiu used Badan’s Guiding Stone to gather millions of Spirit Stones, then uprooted looted cities and discovered he could expand the Minor World for one million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
• Chen Qiu expanded the Minor World and stored the cities inside it, while Fat Dragon told the shopkeeper that greater ability meant greater responsibility as he faced cracking countless restrictions.

Chen Qiu and the Barbarian Race returned to Jiang Taiping Continent after plundering 108 cities and their Spirit Stones from Evergreen Continent. After a night of sleeping through a snowfall, Chen Qiu woke and found that Xiong Gao still would not stir.

• Chen Qiu gathered the Spirit Stones and cities from his assigned region, expanding his Minor World and amassing more than one hundred million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
• Chen Qiu met the Barbarian Race and Mopan's tens of thousands of Weird Buddhas, then gave Mopan the second strand of Fortune of the Yin Soul in exchange for arranging care for his disciples.
• Chen Qiu and the Barbarian Race returned to Jiang Taiping Continent, where the Barbarian Race members vomited from the guidance journey before Badan took them away.
• Chen Qiu rested at his secluded cultivation site and discussed the Immortal Realm with Fat Dragon and Xiong Gao before falling asleep by the bonfire.
• Snow fell through the night as Chen Qiu, Fat Dragon, and Xiong Gao slept; at dawn, Chen Qiu woke and Fat Dragon concluded that Xiong Gao had gone into hibernation.

Chen Qiu and Fat Dragon surveyed the enormous Spirit Stone haul, then joined the Bai Family’s Sky Prodigies in a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm on Qi Tian Continent. The realm’s waiting room proved deadly for anyone who tried to leave without Chen Qiu’s strength, as the Huang Family’s young master was killed by heavenly lightning.

• Chen Qiu showed Fat Dragon the Minor World’s mountain of roughly one hundred million Spirit Stones and reflected on the opportunity Weird Buddha had given him.
• Badan delivered the agreed Spirit Stone share from the Barbarian Race, and Chen Qiu gave half of it to Badan for Zhao Yishi.
• After several days of resting, Chen Qiu and Fat Dragon joined the Bai Family Head and three Bai Family Sky Prodigies at the secret realm entrance on Qi Tian Continent.
• Chen Qiu entered the realm’s private-school waiting area with the others, then went outside alone after explaining that staying inside was safer for those who lacked his strength.
• Cultivators from other continents filled the waiting room, and the Huang Family’s young master mocked the Bai Family before trying to leave.
• Heavenly lightning struck and killed the Huang Family’s young master at the doorway, while Chen Qiu returned safely to his seat.

Chen Qiu and the other cultivators began the Drunken Dreams, Deadly Delirium secret realm, where the host laid out lethal rules and a series of trials. Chen Qiu cleared the first trial without being tempted, while Fat Dragon recognized the bride as his former lover Ma Yinxue and chose to approach her.

• Chen Qiu explained that the private school’s heavenly lightning feared his power, while the host arrived and killed the Huang Family protector for interrupting him.
• The host announced that the secret realm had nine trials, warned that fewer than four clears meant death, and led everyone through a corridor to the first trial.
• The first trial required entrants to face beauty’s temptation while staying rational, with a random Purple Trait Jade Slip as the reward.
• Chen Qiu entered a bridal chamber, ignored the veiled bride, and cleared the trial to return to the corridor with a jade slip.
• Fat Dragon heard Ma Yinxue’s voice from the bride, realized the trial had drawn on his memories of his former lover, and walked toward her.

Chen Qiu urged his group to secure their chance to leave the strange secret realm instead of chasing increasingly large reward multipliers. After Fat Dragon cleared the third stage, one of the Bai Family Sky Prodigies chose to forgo its reward and pursue the quintuple payout ahead.

• Fat Dragon revealed that he had failed the first trial because its illusion was Ma Yinxue, while everyone else passed.
• The second trial offered a Red Trait Jade Slip for holding one's breath, but promised triple rewards in the next trial to those who failed; Chen Qiu told his group to pass it, while many others gambled and gave it up.
• Chen Qiu warned his group that the trials might grow harder and urged them to secure the four clears required to leave the secret realm.
• The third trial offered a Gold Trait Jade Slip for killing the bride from the first trial, with quintuple rewards promised in the next stage for those who failed; challengers divided between passing and gambling again.
• Chen Qiu killed the bride and passed the third stage, and Fat Dragon also passed despite the bride resembling Ma Yinxue.
• One of the Bai Family's female Sky Prodigies failed the third stage to pursue quintuple rewards, and Chen Qiu accepted her choice.

Chen Qiu and the other cultivators reached the fourth trial, where he secured a One-Day Rainbow Trait Jade Slip while many others gambled on larger rewards. The secret realm then launched its corridor through the Void, and Chen Qiu discovered that its host was close to falling apart without Spirit Stones; after he supplied six million, the host admitted to skimming the entry fees.

• Chen Qiu and the two obedient Bai Family Sky Prodigies cleared the fourth trial, while many cultivators gave it up to gamble on the next reward multiplier.
• Chen Qiu emerged with a One-Day Rainbow Trait Jade Slip, and Fat Dragon noted that only five people had cleared all four trials.
• The host launched the corridor through the Void, alarming the cultivators as its speed increased and the fifth trial loomed.
• Cracks appeared in the corridor and across the host, so Chen Qiu poured out six million Spirit Stones for the host to absorb and stabilize the realm.
• Chen Qiu demanded an explanation, and the host admitted that after awakening consciousness, they had greedily skimmed the entry-fee Spirit Stones.
