After 300 days, Ye Fei and Jun Mo chose to stay, and the world removed its divided maps as players entered a more physical stage of life. As the regions fused, Ye Fei learned he could decide whether Free and Unrestrained Mountain would join the outside world or remain a self-contained secret realm.
After the worlds merged, players’ identities and factions appeared in their friend lists, and Ye Fei learned that the Dragon Palace was under attack. He allied with the Dragon Palace, while the group anticipated a lively reunion between the Dragon Crown Prince and Long Heng.
Ye Fei and Lingbo settled their alliances while Long Heng and Feng An returned from the Dragon Palace with two dragon cubs. The Dragon Crown Prince and Long Heng joined the children playing at Ye Fei’s home, while Feng An left to deal with factions approaching his place.
Ye Fei let the Dragon Crown Prince stay at his home because the Dragon Palace was unsafe, while Lingbo urged him to rein in Long Heng. Long Heng then revealed that his Wind God Talent let him see secrets deliberately hidden from the young dragon, leaving Lingbo worried about the consequences.
Ye Fei learned that the Dragon Crown Prince was actually the former Dragon God, reduced to a cub while others secretly sustained his divine position and endured heavenly punishment. After Little Golden Dragon overheard the truth and broke down crying, Water God and Fire God warned that recovering his memories could bring down the unfinished punishment, and Ye Fei wondered whether the Dragon God had taken it upon himself to protect the Dragon Race.
The Fire God explained how the Dragon Race’s past destruction led the Dragon God to take Heavenly Punishment, while Little Golden Dragon struggled with what he had learned. Long Heng snapped at the other gods as they debated staying out of the Dragon Race’s fate, and the Queen revealed that Feng An had once hunted dragons around Snow Mountain.
Ye Fei told the Queen and Lingbo that Lingyan was resting after renovating his home, while his vague description of the work led them to suspect he had helped merge the Greater Worlds. At Lingyan’s home, Fire Dance played with the others as Lingyan explained why the Dragon Race could not safely ask the rules for help.
After the worlds merged, Ye Fei learned that the new Wood God was a Divine Tree rather than a player and had hidden away after claiming the Divine Position. Feng An visited Ye Fei, then went to Lingyan’s Home with Long Heng, while Lingyan appeared beside Ye Fei and left him wondering whether her appearance was connected to the Dragon Race.
Lingyan explained the Dragon God’s sacrifice and the punishment awaiting the Dragon Race, then offered Ye Fei a divine position as the God of the Human Race and a chance to join the God War. Ye Fei refused, and Lingyan left after promising to take him to witness the war when it began, leaving Ye Fei wondering why he had been warned.
After the Dragon God returned to the Dragon Race, the races divided territories while Ye Fei continued cultivating at Free and Unrestrained Mountain. At midnight on the world's one-year mark, a lottery event began, and Ye Fei received two Lottery Wheels.
As the new year began, Ye Fei and his companions received random rewards, and Ye Fei drew a Divine Artifact and a Divine-grade boost for Free and Unrestrained Mountain. He explained the boost’s hundredfold time effect to the others, then went to visit Lingyan’s home with the Divine Heavenly General Seal.
Ye Fei visited Senior Lingyan’s home, where he learned that Qingxue and the other Spirit Pets were preparing to advance. Lingyan and his lookalike debated whether to change the world’s future, while Qingxue began her advancement after eating an immortal fruit and an advancement pill.
Qingxue advanced into an Immortal Pet, and Ye Fei found Feng Bai and helped him advance into an Immortal Beast. After Feng Bai completed his transformation, the trio continued through the senior’s mountain home to search for Eclipse Moon and Phantom Spirit.
Eclipse Moon advanced by turning into a black Pet Egg, and Ye Fei continued traveling through the mountains with Qingxue and Feng Bai. He met Long Heng and Feng An on the plains, picked up the embarrassed Long Heng, and heard Feng An reflect on Lingyan’s unusual care for him.
Ye Fei reunited with Phantom Spirit and Feimeng after they evolved, then rested by a lake while his pets played and Eclipse Moon hatched. Lingyan arrived with a Golden Kitten, looking as if something had gone wrong.
After a chess game ended in a draw, Lingyan told Ye Fei that the rules intended to combine a race war and a god war and wanted Ye Fei to test how people would respond. Ye Fei refused and was sent home to cultivate, while the rules prepared gifts and a stronger thunder tribulation for him.
Ye Fei returned to find that sixty years had passed for his companions while he was away for only a month, thanks to Senior Huang Yu’s intervention. As the divine artifacts in his furnace neared completion, he sent everyone home, sealed off the Courtyard, and entered the furnace as it expanded and began a long cycle of falling and regrowing leaves.
Ye Fei’s newly refined Divine Gear emerged as the Artifact Refining Furnace shattered, and he began undergoing a dangerous tribulation above Cloud Summit. As gods and Players moved to seize the gear, Ye Fei calmly absorbed the tribulation’s energy, while its humble appearance concealed astonishing attributes.
Ye Fei discovered that his advancement had made his soul consume his primordial spirit, skipping several cultivation stages. “Lingyan” sent him into a tribulation to force him to become an immortal, while explaining that Free and Unrestrained Mountain needed greater strength for the coming calamity of the ten thousand races.
Ye Fei completed his transformation into a Free and Unrestrained Immortal and questioned Lingyan about his new powers and equipment. Lingyan and his senior departed for the coming chaotic battle, while Ye Fei returned to Free and Unrestrained Mountain after more than three hundred years had passed there.
Ye Fei returned after becoming an immortal, reuniting with his companions and the little ones after more than three hundred years. As they prepared to discuss the troubles ahead, the Queen suggested gathering materials so Ye Fei could craft new equipment for everyone.
After two months of managing threats and gathering resources, the Queen urged Ye Fei to upgrade Free and Unrestrained Mountain and prepare equipment for its members. Ye Fei expanded the faction’s territory, and the new areas immediately revealed numerous unidentified dangers for Blue Feather and the others to investigate.
Ye Fei reshaped Free and Unrestrained Mountain’s surroundings and reorganized the Worker Area, giving its residents land and resources so they could develop independently. Feng An reported that players from other spaces were joining the world as racial or faith-based groups, and Ye Fei learned that Xu Ming was pursuing power through the faith of the Human Race.
Ye Fei prepared equipment and supplies for his companions as the racial war approached, while Qingxue and the others secretly began rapid cultivation to become strong enough to protect him. The chapter ended with Ye Fei supporting their decision and reassuring Phoenix Perch that they were family.
As the race melee intensified, Lu Heng, Lin Mu, Lin Xian, and Fan left Free and Unrestrained Mountain to join their respective battlefields. Lie Feng Mountain then forcibly started a Faction Conquest Battle against Free and Unrestrained Mountain, leaving Ye Fei and Jun Mo to face the attack alongside the unchallengeable Life God.
