Meng Chuan killed the Undying Netherworld Emperor’s clone, then discussed the path to becoming a Hunyuan Lord with Yuan and Luo Feng. After pondering how supreme realms might connect, he decided to visit the Heavens to compare his Dao with an Immortal Emperor’s, setting out for the passage above the Ultimate Ancient Land.

• Meng Chuan decided to visit the Heavens and headed for the passage above the Ultimate Ancient Land.

Meng Chuan met Luo, one of the Heavens' two surviving Immortal Emperors, and learned how badly the Weird Race had devastated her world. Luo and Meng Hai were trying to restore the ancient Heavens through Past Reflection, but the attempt was immensely difficult and dangerous.

• Luo met Meng Chuan and recognized his extraordinary power, while Meng Chuan gave her his Daoist name, Hongjun.
• Luo explained that the Weird Race had killed about eighty percent of the Heavens' Living Beings and most of its End-of-the-Road Level beings, leaving only her and Meng Hai alive.

• Meng Chuan learned that Luo and Meng Hai planned to reflect the ancient Heavens into the present and resurrect its fallen beings.
• Luo revealed that Shi Hao had previously helped bear the cost of Past Reflection and bought them time, but even a healthy Immortal Emperor could not guarantee the restoration would succeed.

Meng Chuan discussed the Heavens’ struggle against the Weird Race with Luo and learned about their plan to reflect the past and revive fallen Immortal Emperors. He told Luo that he had come to find a true End-of-the-Road expert and the Pollen Path Evolution Method, leaving Luo ready to help answer his questions.

• Meng Chuan and Luo discussed how the Weird Race’s sacrificial harvests divided eras and left the Heavens with brief periods of respite.

• Meng Chuan said that he knew Desolate and came from the same world, surprising Luo.
• Meng Chuan revealed that his second purpose was to find the Pollen Path Evolution Method.

Meng Chuan obtained the Pollen Path Evolution Method from Luo and learned that Unknown Power had corrupted its higher realms. After studying the Immortal Emperor realm and experiencing Luo’s power, he left with both goals for visiting the Heavens fulfilled, though he had not met Meng Hai.

• Meng Chuan asked Luo for the Pollen Path Evolution Method, and Luo gave him its breathing methods and scriptures.
• Luo warned Meng Chuan that Unknown Power had tainted the Pollen Path, making its higher realms dangerous, and explained that the Pollen Path Ancestral Root had withered and disappeared.
• Meng Chuan said he wanted to study the path rather than cultivate it, and Luo explained its reliance on spiritually potent pollen and the Ancestral Root.
• Luo explained the Immortal Emperor realm and let Meng Chuan experience an Immortal Emperor’s power, showing him the vast gap between their levels.
• Meng Chuan left the Heavens having achieved both of his goals, while Meng Hai remained asleep and unavailable.

Meng Chuan discussed the future and the Dao with Luo in the Heavens, but left without learning how to form the Lingbao Dao Fruit. Back in the Boundary Sea, he met Ruthless and invited her to his small world, while she suspected he carried the scent of a female cultivator.

• Meng Chuan asked Luo whether living beings could travel to and live in the future, and Luo explained that the future could not truly be reached before it became the present.
• Meng Chuan worried that he had no way to refine a future Lingbao Body and blamed Shi Hao and Ye Fan for not having become stronger.
• Meng Chuan explored the Heavens, learned that seven Immortal Emperors had once guarded Cang, and prepared to leave after discussing the Dao with Luo.
• Luo gave Meng Chuan a token that would let him enter the Heavens again, and Meng Chuan wished him success in resurrecting it before returning to the Boundary Sea.
• Meng Chuan ran into Ruthless, admitted that becoming an Immortal Emperor troubled him, and invited her to his small world with gifts from the Heavens.
• Ruthless followed Meng Chuan and suspected that she caught the scent of a female cultivator on him.

Meng Chuan gave Ye Fan and the others Quasi-Immortal Emperor insights and scriptures that Luo had entrusted to him, then helped Ye Fan prepare for Chenxi’s cultivation. Ye Fan worried that Meng Chuan and Ruthless cared for each other but had failed to recognize their feelings, and resolved to protect them from any rival.

• Meng Chuan explained that Luo had given him Quasi-Immortal Emperor insights and portions of scriptures collected from the Heavens’ fallen Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
• Meng Chuan urged Ye Fan and the others to become Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and Ye Fan vowed to help repay Meng Chuan’s debt to Luo.
• Azure Emperor said Ye Fan had told Chenxi the truth about his identity and that her constitution had fully awakened.
• Meng Chuan created an Innate Dao Pill to strengthen Chenxi’s Innate Dao Embryo to the level of a Chaos Body or Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo.
• Ye Fan took the pill and worried that Meng Chuan and Ruthless were oblivious to their mutual feelings.
• Ye Fan resolved to stand behind Meng Chuan and Ruthless and kill anyone who got in their way.

Meng Chuan entrusted Ruthless with his Great Dao Jade Disc to help her pursue the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Dao, then went to discuss Zhang Sanfeng’s possible return to his distant home. Zhang Sanfeng revealed that Luo Feng had exaggerated the battle with the Undying Netherworld Emperor, leaving Meng Chuan stunned by the tale.

• Ye Fan, Wushi, and the others left Meng Chuan, while Ruthless stayed behind and mistakenly assumed his glances meant he had something to tell her.
• Meng Chuan gave Ruthless the Great Dao Jade Disc so she could study his Dao and use its power for protection.

• Meng Chuan explained to Ruthless that Zhang Sanfeng could return to his distant world if he wished, now that Meng Chuan had defeated their enemy.
• Zhang Sanfeng told Meng Chuan that Luo Feng had claimed to fight the Undying Netherworld Emperor to a draw before Meng Chuan killed him, and Meng Chuan was left speechless by the exaggerated account.

Meng Chuan warned Zhang Sanfeng that the Villain Chat Group might have an Immortal Emperor and offered to help if he returned home. Zhang Sanfeng chose to wait, reassured that his people were safe, while Meng Chuan prepared to leave for another world to save his son.

• Meng Chuan questioned Luo Feng's exaggerated tale of fighting the Undying Netherworld Emperor, and Zhang Sanfeng laughed it off.
• Meng Chuan warned Zhang Sanfeng that the Villain Chat Group might have an Immortal Emperor, against whom even Meng Chuan could do little.
• Zhang Sanfeng decided not to return home yet because doing so might endanger Meng Chuan and the others.
• Meng Chuan told Zhang Sanfeng that his people in Wudang and Great Ming were still alive because his Other Self had slowed time on their planet.
• Meng Chuan said he would soon leave to save his son before the boy kicked up his heels and died.

Meng Chuan discussed Meng Qi’s coming Golden Emperor ordeal and noticed his Chat Group name changing after his rise in strength and the death of the Undying Netherworld Emperor. He traveled to Lifetime World to check on Meng Qi, who was watching Gao Lan prepare to establish a Human Dao Imperial Dynasty.

• Meng Chuan told Zhang Sanfeng that Meng Qi’s Golden Emperor calamity was his last major hurdle before reaching the Other Shore.

• Meng Chuan appeared beside Meng Qi, looked toward Gao Lan’s preparations, and ignored Meng Qi’s teasing about Gu Xiaosang dwelling in his left hand.

• Meng Chuan and Meng Qi discussed Gao Lan’s Divine Investiture, and Meng Chuan considered creating Divine Seats to strengthen cultivators.
• Gao Lan began bringing Heaven under the Human Dao’s rule, but the Heavenly Dao Monster appeared and the Azure Emperor pinned it in place.
• Han Guang seized the opportunity to attain Self-Proven Legend and gather part of the Heavenly Emperor’s Authority, limiting how completely Gao Lan could invest the deities.

• Meng Chuan waited for a while, then noticed a young ancient Buddha in the distance and called out to him.

• The World-Freedom Buddha tried to flee after Meng Chuan called to him, fearing that Meng Chuan might attack him.
