Xiao Tian robbed the fighters guarding the Dao-comprehension platforms, recruited Xue Ningshuang as a follower, and gave her Gu Jianyun’s sword treasures. When Dragon Maiden emerged from the Gate of Death, Xiao Tian challenged her, but their clash ended with him proposing they explore the immortal cave inheritance together.
Xiao Tian broke through the immortal grotto’s barrier, seized its fleeing treasures, and rescued Dragon Maiden from a deadly formation triggered by the Heavenly Horned Ant Treasure Bone. After the grotto activated as a vast killing formation, he saved the surviving Heavenly Prodigies and set out with Shi Hao to find Shi Hao’s younger brother.
Xiao Tian guided survivors through the Ferocious Nest, gave Qin Xiao Hao and Long Jingjing protective treasures, and set out with Chang Gongyan to meet the Exiled Immortal. The Exiled Immortal revealed his role in the mass slaughter and focused his attention on Xiao Tian, leaving their confrontation imminent.
Xiao Tian defeated the Exiled Immortal’s attacks and entered the Heavenly Horned Ant Nest to confront him in seclusion. He left a warning on the jade table, and the Exiled Immortal realized Xiao Tian could have killed him without his noticing.
Xiao Tian helped Chang Gongyan and Xue Ningshuang fuse powerful inheritances and cultivate immortal qi, then reunited with his companions before traveling to the Azure Spirit Realm. The chapter ended with Xiao Tian picnicking with four beauties in the Peach Blossom Garden, drawing envious looks from nearby Heavenly Prodigies.
Xiao Tian helped Di Yao, Yu Meiren, and Bai Qian advance through arduous cultivation, then sent his companions to explore other worlds while he pursued trades and opportunities. Meanwhile, Shi Hao uncovered the grim truth behind the Seven Kings of the Border Wasteland and began hunting the forces that targeted their descendants.
Xiao Tian witnessed the truth behind the Seven Kings of the Border Wasteland’s fall and the dark forces that brought the Immortal Ancient Era to an end. He joined Shi Hao in the Burial World, where they planned to seek the Willow Deity’s traces after sharing a meal.
Xiao Tian and his companions found an immortal corpse in a sinkhole and used its lingering immortal aura to cultivate. When the Heavenly Kingdom's twin Holy Sons tried to seize the site, Xiao Tian killed them, leaving the nearby cultivators wary of who might come next.
The Ancient Saint Son learned that an immortal corpse had appeared where Ning Chuan had once found immortal hand bones, but he hesitated to approach after hearing who else was there. Shi Hao and Xiao Tian discovered that Xiao Tian’s traps had killed Jun Dao, then Xiao Tian explained that the corpse concealed a Willow Deity seal and a dangerous dark-corrupted Immortal King.
Xiao Tian moved the Immortal Corpse to safety, destroyed the dark power sealed beneath it, and claimed its bones and Willow Deity’s relics for his companions. After sharing secrets about the ancient war and the coming turmoil, he led the group toward Burial City, where rumors of his recent victories had spread.
Xiao Tian and his companions survived a series of coordinated assassinations in Fallen City and killed the attackers. Xiao Tian pursued and killed Heavenly Kingdom’s Heavenly Maiden, and the group finished off the remaining enemies.
Xiao Tian and Shi Hao descended into the Black Abyss, where they gathered ancient treasures and discovered a damaged teleportation altar connected to Ye Qingxian and a mysterious cauldron. After they returned, the native tribes gathered around and sought to trade with Shi Hao for his willow branch.
Shi Hao and Xiao Tian traded surplus treasures for rare medicines while the tribes’ Heavenly Gods tried to obtain Willow Deity’s branches and leaves. Xiao Tian learned the tribes were connected to Willow Deity’s three thousand divine kingdoms and promised to help them escape the Burial World and remove their curse.
Xiao Tian summoned a tribulation, prompting Shi Hao and many others to borrow its lightning and undergo their own trials. After the group completed their tribulations, Xiao Tian distributed Tribulation Lightning Liquid and his Second Calabash Brother returned with the plundered treasures of five Ancient Freaks.
Xiao Tian and his companions emerged from seclusion stronger, while Shi Hao called Xiao Tian to help him enter the Immortal Medicine Garden. Xiao Tian joined him inside, where Shi Hao lamented that his companions had left him.
Shi Hao and Xiao Tian discovered an Immortal Medicine Garden containing White Tortoise Carrying an Immortal, a Heavenly God Tree, and an Immortal Phoenix Nest. After the God-Striking Stone used the Snow Phoenix Maiden’s blood to open the nest, she received a Five-Colored Phoenix inheritance and began comprehending it.
Xiao Tian’s group explored the Undying Phoenix Nest and Immortal Medicine Garden, where the God-Striking Stone revealed its immortal qi and Xiao Tian captured a quasi-immortal medicine. The chapter left Shi Hao seizing a messenger from White Tortoise Carrying an Immortal, convinced it was a divine medicine he could take.
Shi Hao and Xiao Tian captured several divine medicines in the Immortal Medicine Garden, while Xiao Tian studied an incomplete Immortal King Killing Formation. Xiao Tian then reached the White Tortoise Carrying an Immortal and claimed he would awaken the intelligence of the female immortal on its back, leaving the old tortoise to consider his offer.
Xiao Tian persuaded the old tortoise to cultivate with his help and used nine heavens breathing soil to take the Immortal Medicine Garden. After dividing its treasures with Shi Hao, he sent Shi Hao to seek a third strand of immortal qi in the Human Immortal Palace.
Xiao Tian fused a grain of nine heavens breathing soil into his body, transforming his physique and awakening more of his Da Wa Body’s power. He endured a fearsome black heavenly tribulation that brought his soul to the half-step Void Dao Realm, while Shi Hao completed his breakthrough and the Golden Dao Palace signaled that the Brilliant Ancient World’s final year had begun.
Xiao Tian rescued Shi Hao by defeating the Heavenly God Ma Yuan, who had targeted him, and then pointed Shi Hao toward the Burial World to continue building his foundations. Xiao Tian went to Ma Yuan’s tribe to claim its treasures and gathered resources for his own breakthrough.
Xiao Tian used Heavenly Tribulation to enter the Sacred Sacrifice domain, survived the Nine-Section Road and the Darkness Cage, and returned with his power greatly enhanced. He then arrived to rescue his trapped companions and killed two of the Heavenly God beasts hunting them, while the Golden Ao remained to face him.
Xiao Tian subdued the Golden Ao and entered a hidden secret realm, where he found his four confidantes and the legacy of Tianshui True Immortal. After a month of helping the women cultivate, Bai Qian developed a third strand of immortal qi, but her soul was pulled into the Darkness Cage, and Xiao Tian followed her.
Xiao Tian rescued Di Yao and the Witch from the Darkness Cage, then entered the Burial World and saved Shi Hao from three Heavenly God-level pursuers. After they feasted and set out for the Dark World, an enemy arrived and claimed their skins.
Shi Hao and Xiao Tian defeated Di Kun, a Heavenly God who had possessed a young First Generation, and Xiao Tian looted his lair. They then reached Chaos Mosquito Lake to train, where Xiao Tian disturbed enormous swarms of deadly mosquitoes and left Shi Hao facing immediate danger.
