Xiao Tian and the other disciples harvested Immortal Seeds, then he advanced his cultivation while his companions entered seclusion. While Xiao Tian was away, the Immortal and Sacred Academies provoked a conflict at the Heavenly God Academy, and their elders discussed using the bloodlines of people connected to him to nourish Immortal Seeds without realizing how dangerous it would be if he found out.
Qin Xiao Hao fought the Immortal Academy’s disciples while Shi Hao remained in seclusion, and the Little Heavenly King challenged him before the academies gathered for a contest. Qin Xiao Hao faced a Nine-Nether Ao in the Divine-Level Arena and proved he could match one of the strongest Heavenly God Realm prodigies.
Qin Xiao Hao lost to the Nine-Nether Ao, but Shi Yi stepped in and defeated the opponent with his double pupils and killing arrays. The Immortal Academy conceded, and Qi Daolin healed the Nine-Nether Ao as the battle ended.
Shi Yi, Huo Ling'er, and Snow Phoenix faced challengers from the Immortal and Sacred Academies, while Xiao Tian criticized the academies for having squandered their best resources. The elders tried to recruit Huo Ling'er and Shi Yi, but the two were left with little reason to join, and the chapter ended with Xiao Tian considering ways to improve the incomplete Current Era Method.
Shi Hao emerged from seclusion after successfully using his body as a seed and entering the Void Dao Realm, proving Meng Tianzheng’s path could work. In the Fire Cave, Xiao Tian discovered and revived a dying Kunpeng King with Three Lights Divine Water before leaving him to recover.
Xiao Tian continued strengthening himself while Shi Hao endured the difficult process of using his body as a seed, and the Nine Heavens’ rising talents converged on the Heavenly God Academy as its underground Immortal Abode neared emergence. The chapter ended with rumors of a coming clash involving Shi Hao, Jin Zhan, and Wang Xi’s broken engagement.
As the Three Academies gathered for the Immortal Abode, Lunar Jade Rabbit Yangyang announced that entrants had to withstand one palm strike from her. She defeated Lan Xian, Great Xutuó, and Daoist Qigu in succession, leaving the gathered prodigies astonished by her strength.
Shi Hao took over Yangyang’s challenge at the Heavenly God Academy while Xiao Tian gathered his Confidantes inside the underground Immortal Abode. There, the puppet Supreme recognized several extraordinary bloodlines, and Ancient Female Double-Pupil found a legacy of the Qilin of the ten fiends.
The puppet veteran let Xiao Tian and the women explore the outer areas of the Immortal City, while the Golden Fusang Tree and other ancient beings regarded Xiao Tian as a mysterious old monster with immense potential. Shi Hao then brought the academies’ Heavenly Prodigies into the city, where they discovered a divine pool.
Xiao Tian and the Little Heaven-Horned Ant watched the heavenly prodigies attempt to lift the Origin-Mother Cauldron, a trial left by the Heavenly Horned Ant. Ten-Crown King and Exiled Immortal managed to raise it slightly before Huo Ling'er began her attempt.
Huo Ling'er, the Nine-Nether Ao Descendant, and several of Xiao Tian's companions and rivals tested their strength against the Origin-Mother Cauldron, with Ancient Female Double-Pupil and Shi Hao impressing the spectators. Xiao Tian then revealed that he could effortlessly control the true cauldron, leaving the onlookers astonished.
Xiao Tian and the others passed the Origin-Mother Cauldron trial and learned about the lost Indestructible Scripture, then entered the Heavenly Horned Ant Lord’s cave abode to search for its inheritance. Xiao Tian offered the Little Heaven-Horned Ant the Sixteen-Foot Golden Body, but the Heavenly Horned Ant Lord’s contingency appeared after Xiao Tian joked about making the boy a monk.
Xiao Tian used Three Lights Divine Water to stabilize Old Heavenly Horned Ant's lingering will and restore him, reuniting him with Little Heaven-Horned Ant. Old Heavenly Horned Ant offered Xiao Tian the incomplete Indestructible Scripture and revealed where its complete inheritance could be found.
Xiao Tian returned from the Immortal City with Shi Hao and the Little Heaven-Horned Ant, then silenced the gathered elders and claimed the ant for the Heavenly God Academy. When Xu Mingxuan and a Wang Family elder each offered their daughter as a bride, Xiao Tian shamelessly asked whether he could marry both.
Xiao Tian defied the Wang Family’s demand to choose between Wang Xi and Princess Yaoyue, then set out with his companions to find the Indestructible Scripture. He reached the Northern Sea’s Stone Forest, where enormous skeletal remains revealed signs of an ancient immortal war.
Xiao Tian and his companions were swept into a time vortex, where the Ruthless Empress recognized Xiao Tian and tried to kill him for reasons he could not understand. After returning to the Northern Sea, the group reached the Stone Forest and began seeking the ancient Dao legacies hidden among its petrified pillars.
Xiao Tian and his companions gained enlightenment from the Northern Sea Stone Forest’s Supreme Peaks before Xiao Tian, Shi Hao, and Little Heaven-Horned Ant entered the Ultimate Forbidden Land. As Shi Hao struggled along its dangerous trail, Xiao Tian observed ghost immortals lurking among the surrounding peaks.
Xiao Tian infiltrated the Immortal Refining Pot, stole its accumulated blood essence, and refined the creatures living inside before escaping with Shi Hao and Little Heaven-Horned Ant. Shi Hao obtained the Indestructible Scripture, while Xiao Tian learned that its remaining pages could lead to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.
Xiao Tian learned more about the hatred directed at the Seven Kings’ descendants and encouraged the Little Heaven-Horned Ant to avenge his family. After leaving the Stone Forest, he blasted Wang Da away with a bizarre fart technique, and Wang Da’s brothers surrounded him.
Xiao Tian crushed the Wang Family's Nine Dragons after they tried to capture him, while Meng Tianzheng and Wang Changsheng fought beyond the heavens and reached an agreement. The Wang Family left Xiao Tian and Wang Xi's relationship undisturbed, though Wang Changsheng vowed to challenge Xiao Tian once he reached the Supreme Realm.
Xiao Tian consolidated his strength and rallied the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to defend the Great Red Heaven frontier after learning it was about to be attacked. He arrived at the frontier with the Grand Elder and a host of experts as a black-scaled hand swung the Immortal Refining Pot at the city.
Kunpeng King devoured a Foreign Realm Immortal and helped Xiao Tian damage the Immortal Refining Pot before Kundi's imprint escaped with it. Kundi then challenged the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to a contest between younger warriors, and Kunpeng Son immediately defeated the first Foreign Realm challenger.
Kunpeng Son killed a Blood Phoenix Lion, while Ancient Female Double-Pupil defeated the Foreign Realm’s nine-eyed prodigy, Tituo. Xiao Tian called Zhen Mi back from the battlefield and healed her injured finger, leaving the next challenge unanswered.
Xiao Tian and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths defeated several Foreign Realm prodigies, while Chu Shanhe revealed the power of his black-and-white life-and-death light. An Lan lost an arm to the Kunpeng King after attacking Xiao Tian, and the contest continued with more than thirty Foreign Realm youths stepping forward.
The younger generation of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths clashed with Foreign Realm prodigies, and Di Yao’s overwhelming strength drew An Lan and Kundi’s attention. The battle continued as the Phoenix Maiden captured Yu Qiuyu in Xiao Tian’s Treasure Gourd.
