The chapter left Chen Lin at peak Body Integration with physical strength comparable to a Mahayana expert, while Long Aotian departed with Elder Ao Ao and Commander Mo returned to camp.

• Long Aotian broke Commander Mo's spear, wounded him, and drew a drop of golden dragon blood that pierced the barrier and flew toward Chen Lin.

• Commander Mo recovered the Five Directions Prison-Suppressing Banners and returned to the camp's main hall.
• Chen Lin absorbed the dragon blood, advanced to early Body Integration, and strengthened his body to peak Body Integration with Mahayana-level physical pressure.

Chen Lin concealed his Mahayana-stage physical strength after advancing to body integration and decided to keep mining while his companions cultivated. Fatty Wang gave him a hundred thousand mid-grade spirit crystals, and Chen Lin began mining at Yi-3 Mine the next morning.

• Chen Lin concealed his Mahayana-stage physical body and told his shocked companions he had advanced to body integration.
• Fatty Wang found Chen Lin unharmed, advised him to delay joining the battlefield until his companions reached integration, and gave him a hundred thousand mid-grade spirit crystals.

Chen Lin used his strength to mine thousands of mid-grade spirit crystals, then spent some of his wealth buying materials to forge an Integration Spirit Treasure. While browsing a market stall, he followed Cangyuan’s excited warning about a dirty pottery jar but pretended to inspect another item, leaving its purchase unresolved.

• Chen Lin mined over three thousand mid-grade spirit crystals in one day, stunning the other miners and the Black-Armored Overseer.
• Chen Lin left Song Qiuya and the others cultivating in seclusion and went to the high-tier Free Trade Zone to improve his combat capabilities.
• Chen Lin bought solar essence gold, lunar essence gold, and an artifact-refining guide for fifty thousand mid-grade spirit crystals at Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
• Cangyuan urgently pointed out a damaged pottery jar at an independent cultivator’s stall, and Chen Lin concealed his interest by asking the old stallholder about a piece of crimson blood copper mother.
• The gray-robed old man recognized Chen Lin’s unfathomable strength and offered the copper mother for six thousand mid-grade spirit crystals.

Chen Lin bought a battered clay jar alongside crimson blood copper mother after bargaining with a stall owner, then learned from Cangyuan that the jar was an Immortal Artifact. Clear Wind used her Southern Bright Flame to reveal its true purple-gold form, leaving Cangyuan suddenly confused beside it.

• Chen Lin bargained the stall owner down to six thousand mid-grade spirit crystals for the crimson blood copper mother and the battered clay jar.
• Chen Lin returned to Courtyard 108, sealed his quiet chamber with twelve restriction formations, and asked Cangyuan about the jar.
• Cangyuan identified the jar as an Immortal Artifact whose disguise concealed its aura from spiritual energy and Divine Sense.
• Chen Lin summoned Clear Wind and told her to burn the jar with her Southern Bright Flame.
• Clear Wind's flame dissolved the jar's clay shell, revealing an ancient purple-gold Immortal Artifact covered in Dao Patterns.
• Cangyuan celebrated the reveal, then abruptly fell silent and stared at the Purple Gold Jar in confusion.

Chen Lin prepared to forge the Two-Forms Sword, an Integration-stage Spirit Treasure, after discovering that the Purple Gold Jar’s artifact spirit had been sealed by a True Immortal. During the dangerous fusion of its yin and yang materials, Chen Lin used his Mahayana-stage body to force the clashing laws together, leaving the sword’s forging unresolved.

• Cangyuan discovered that a True Immortal had sealed the Purple Gold Jar’s artifact spirit, and Chen Lin stored the jar in his dantian.
• Chen Lin gave Clear Wind and Bright Moon spirit crystals, then studied the Myriad Forms Artifact-Refining Compendium and chose the Two-Forms Sword.
• Over the next year, Chen Lin mined spirit crystals, cultivated to middle Body Integration, and prepared to refine the sword inside Cangyuan Hall.
• Clear Wind used southern bright flame to melt the solar and lunar essence gold while Chen Lin engraved opposing yang and yin array patterns into them.
• When the two materials violently repelled each other during fusion, Cangyuan urged Chen Lin to stop, but he seized them and used his true dragon qi and blood to force them together.

Chen Lin forged the Two-Forms Sword by fusing opposing ice and fire laws with his true dragon blood, creating a half-step Great Vehicle spirit treasure. He went to the Recruit Camp’s testing grounds to try it out, where a late Body Integration cultivator mocked him.

• Chen Lin used a drop of true dragon blood to suppress the sword’s ice and fire laws and forged the Two-Forms Sword.
• Chen Lin tested the sword’s power by cutting a distant stone hill into lava and ice, then stored the sword in his dantian.
• Chen Lin left Cangyuan Hall, found that Yun Sheng, Song Qiuya, and the others were still cultivating, and asked Fatty Wang for a place to test his weapon.
• Fatty Wang led Chen Lin to the Recruit Camp’s training space and pointed out Boundary-Setting Stones that could withstand Mahayana attacks.
• A burly late Body Integration cultivator mocked Chen Lin for entering the Grade-A Training Arena at middle Body Integration.

Chen Lin used the Two-Forms Sword to destroy a purple-gold Boundary-Setting Stone with one strike, shocking Fatty Wang and the cultivators nearby. As Fatty Wang offered to treat him to dinner, the Myriad Worlds Divine Weapon Stele sounded an alarm after detecting the laws in Chen Lin’s strike.

• Chen Lin infused the Two-Forms Sword with true dragon qi and blood, then unleashed a slash of extreme yang and extreme yin that erased the Boundary-Setting Stone.
• The bare-chested man fell to his knees, while Fatty Wang and the nearby Integration cultivators recoiled in shock at Chen Lin’s power.
• Chen Lin told Fatty Wang that he had forged the sword himself and offered to pay for the destroyed pillar.
• Fatty Wang insisted the pillar was on him and invited Chen Lin to dinner, eager to win his favor.
• As Chen Lin and Fatty Wang headed toward the teleportation array, the Myriad Worlds Divine Weapon Stele sounded an alarm after detecting the laws from Chen Lin’s strike.

Chen Lin’s Two-Forms Sword rang the Myriad Worlds Divine Weapon Stele after his strike in the Martial Arena Space, drawing the cultivators to the Central Plaza. The sword appeared in third place on the Integration Divine Weapon Ranking, and Fatty Wang realized Chen Lin could rise to become a battlefield powerhouse.

• The Divine Weapon Stele rang, and Fatty Wang recognized that Chen Lin’s sword strike had stirred the great Dao laws.
• Fatty Wang dragged Chen Lin toward the Central Plaza while the Integration cultivators rushed after them to witness the stele’s manifestation.
• Fatty Wang asked Chen Lin for the spirit treasure’s name, and Chen Lin answered, “The Two-Forms Sword.”
• Fatty Wang searched the lower ranks and found no mention of the Two-Forms Sword until the bare-chested man pointed out its name near the top.
• The stele revealed the Two-Forms Sword in third place, leaving the Central Plaza silent as Fatty Wang recognized the significance of Chen Lin’s potential.

Chen Lin ranked third on the Divine Weapon Stele and received a permanent access token to the Myriad Worlds Market. After learning about the market’s rare wares and strict protection, he decided to seek information there about the battlefield and the Black Token that had forced him into service.

• Chen Lin’s Two-Forms Sword ranked third on the Divine Weapon Ranking, and Fatty Wang realized how far he had underestimated him.
• The Divine Weapon Stele awarded Chen Lin a Dark-Gold Token that bound itself to his divine soul and revealed the Myriad Worlds Market’s coordinates.
• Fatty Wang explained that the token granted permanent access to the market, which normally required human immortal cultivation and a hundred thousand battle merits to visit.
• Fatty Wang told Chen Lin that Sage Incarnations enforced absolute safety in the market, even against great golden immortals and quasi-saints.
• Chen Lin decided to visit the Myriad Worlds Market to learn the truth about the battlefield and the Black Token behind his forced conscription.

After ten years of mining, Chen Lin built up his reserves and advanced to late Body Integration while his team grew stronger. He used the Divine Weapon Token to reach the Myriad Worlds Market, but its Human Immortal guards stopped him at the gate, leaving him to present the token.

• Chen Lin returned to his courtyard after forging a divine weapon and decided he needed more money before visiting the market.
• Chen Lin spent ten years mining, saving a million mid-grade spirit crystals while his cultivation advanced and his team grew stronger.
• Chen Lin used the Divine Weapon Token to open a spatial passage to the Myriad Worlds Market.
• Chen Lin arrived at the market's star-filled White Jade Square and found its entrance guarded by sixteen Human Immortals.
• A guard barred Chen Lin from entering unless he showed Battle Merit or Human Immortal credentials, so Chen Lin raised his Divine Weapon Token.

Chen Lin entered the Myriad Worlds Market after the Divine Weapon Token made the silver-armored guards defer to him. The token’s revelation drew the attention of powerful factions, but a formidable woman arrived and immobilized the crowd before anyone could approach him.

• Chen Lin showed his Divine Weapon Token to the silver-armored guards, who apologized and let him enter the Myriad Worlds Market.
• Chen Lin surveyed the vast market, where cultivators of far higher realms filled the streets and carried out their business.

• Ling Yuling introduced herself as a cultivator from the First Battlefield and invited Chen Lin to speak with her at the Moon-Gathering Pavilion.
• Ling Yuling ordered a pot of Dao-Comprehending Tea priced at one hundred thousand mid-grade immortal crystals and offered Chen Lin a cup.

• Ling Yuling asked whether Chen Lin had forged the Two-Forms Sword that appeared in third place on the Myriad Worlds Divine Weapon Stele.
• Chen Lin confirmed that he had forged the sword and summoned it above the table.

Chen Lin met Ling Yuling, who recognized his extraordinary forging skill and his remarkable talent despite his ordinary physique. She gave him a token containing three peak True Immortal strikes and unsealed his Purple Gold Jar, whose awakened artifact spirit appeared as a bald monk who could not remember his identity.

• Ling Yuling recognized the Two-Forms Sword’s rare materials and praised Chen Lin for forging a weapon comparable to a Mahayana spirit treasure.
• Ling Yuling discovered Chen Lin was only just over a hundred and thirty years old and had an ordinary mortal body, then decided to invest in him.
• Ling Yuling gave Chen Lin her personal jade token, which held three sword-intent strikes from a peak True Immortal, and Chen Lin accepted it.
• Ling Yuling drew out Chen Lin’s Purple Gold Jar and broke the True Immortal seal, awakening the artifact spirit.
• Chen Lin used his essence blood to claim the Purple Gold Jar, and a bald monk emerged but could not remember who he was.

Chen Lin learned the Purple Gold Jar’s powers and asked Ling Yuling about the Myriad Worlds Battlefield’s origins. She revealed that its opposing side contained exact doubles of their own people, leaving Chen Lin to confront the possibility that the two sides were mirrored universes fighting each other.

• Chen Lin tested the Purple Gold Jar and discovered that it could provide absolute defense and refine all things into purer essence.
• Chen Lin asked Ling Yuling who had created the Myriad Worlds Battlefield and who the immortals were fighting.
• Ling Yuling said that even the highest powers did not know the battlefield’s origins or the identity of its true enemy.
• Ling Yuling recalled seeing Nezha fight Sun Wukong, then revealed that both were commanders on their own side of the battlefield.
• Ling Yuling explained that the enemy had identical copies of their renowned fighters, with the same appearances, powers, weapons, instincts, and memories.
• Chen Lin realized that the battlefield pitted one universe against a perfect mirror of itself.

Chen Lin learned that the Black Jade Token and the garbage he had sorted on Earth were part of a plan to produce unpredictable recruits who could break the mirror-universe war’s deadlock. Ling Yuling revealed that the scheme had failed almost completely, then began to explain just how few recruits it had produced.

• Chen Lin concluded that the mirror-universe war had no winner unless someone introduced a variable to break the balance.
• Ling Yuling explained that three Sages had targeted spirit-severing planets as places where the mirror universe could not predict a cultivator’s growth.
• The Logistics Department had transported battlefield scraps and refuse to anchored spirit-severing planets, forming a garbage transfer system.
• Chen Lin realized that his station on Earth had been a disposal point for battlefield waste and that his scavenging had helped him and others cultivate.
• Ling Yuling explained that reaching deity transformation activated a spatial anchor and made its recipient a Black Token recruit.
• Ling Yuling said the plan had been an utter flop and asked Chen Lin how many recruits he thought it had produced.

Ling Yuling explained why Chen Lin was an extraordinary survivor of the waste-transfer program and lent him a robe to conceal his identity. At the Myriad Worlds Market, Chen Lin exchanged his spirit crystals for immortal crystals, bought spirit treasures for his companions, and saw how much more the city offered to those who could afford it.

• Ling Yuling told Chen Lin that most recruits from spirit-severing lands died before reaching Deity Transformation or became mining slaves, and called him the program’s only monster.
• Ling Yuling lent Chen Lin an Illusory Star Robe that concealed his appearance and cultivation before leaving.
• Chen Lin exchanged one million mid-grade spirit crystals for one hundred low-grade immortal crystals at Starsea Bank.
• Chen Lin found that the market’s immortal artifacts were far beyond his budget and bought ten Integration spirit treasures from Hundred Treasures Hall for his companions.
• Chen Lin looked back at the vast Myriad Worlds Market and realized it held countless valuable items, all available to those with enough money.

Chen Lin returned from the marketplace and began testing whether the Purple Gold Jar could refine ore waste into valuable essence. He equipped his companions with Integration-stage Spirit Treasures, then obtained permission to collect discarded ore, but his Storage Bags made the work painfully slow.

• Chen Lin returned to Mine 9527 and brought out the Purple Gold Jar, planning to refine discarded ore waste.
• Chen Lin summoned his nine companions and distributed ten Integration-stage Spirit Treasures for them to refine inside Cangyuan Hall.
• Chen Lin visited Fatty Wang, who gave him an iron token granting access to the Ninth District Waste Mine.
• Chen Lin began collecting the mine's accumulated ore waste with Storage Bags, but filled hundreds of bags while barely reducing the immense pile.

Chen Lin used the Purple Gold Jar to refine stolen mine tailings into vast wealth, letting his group cultivate in seclusion for thirty years. After everyone advanced to Integration and Chen Lin reached late Mahayana, they depleted the Ninth District’s tailings and prepared to leave the Recruit Camp.

• Chen Lin collected tailings from the Ninth District Waste Mine and refined them into a million mid-grade spirit crystals’ worth of pure powder.
• Chen Lin and his companions stopped attending work at Yi-3 Mine and cultivated inside Cangyuan Hall.
• Fatty Wang confronted Chen Lin about their absence, accepted refined powder as a bribe, and covered their quotas while securing their courtyard.
• Over thirty years outside and three hundred years inside Cangyuan Hall, Song Qiuya, Qin Chuxia, Yun Sheng, Clear Wind, Bright Moon, Heavenly Hatred True Lord, Changqingzi, and the Star Moon Demon Saint reached Integration, while Chen Lin reached late Mahayana.
• Chen Lin revealed that he had stripped the Ninth District of its tailings, leaving thirty billion mid-grade spirit crystals’ worth of powder, and decided the group would leave the depleted Recruit Camp.

Chen Lin secured clearance for his team to leave the Recruit Camp, then learned that new arrivals were being sent to a deadly frontline. He planned to prepare rather than risk his companions, converted his spirit crystals into a fortune, and began buying escape treasures.

• Chen Lin demonstrated that he and his nine companions had reached Integration, prompting Fatty Wang to issue ten tiger tallies for their departure.
• Fatty Wang warned Chen Lin that the Wilds Realm defensive line had collapsed and that headquarters was forcing new arrivals to fight there.
• Chen Lin thanked Fatty Wang and said he would use the teleportation array in ten days.
