Lin Yun explained the limits of his newly condensed Yang Spirit to Nangong Wan and accepted the Void Sky Cauldron from her. He then revealed the silver wolf artifact spirit’s identity as Silver Moon and agreed to let her follow him.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan returned to the waters near Tianxing City and learned that the Inverse Star Alliance was preparing to fight the Star Palace. Inside the city, the Twin Saints discussed their failing cultivation, their limited lifespans, and how to protect Ling Yuling.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan returned to Tianxing City during the escalating conflict between the Star Palace and the Inverse Star Alliance, with Ling Yuling vouching for their entry. At their cave mansion, Lin Yun discovered Han Li had left for the Outer Sea to avoid the dangers surrounding the Void Sky Hall affair and the war.
Ling Yuling visited Lin Yun and Nangong Wan with news that the Inverse Star Alliance had issued arrest warrants for Han and Venerable Xuan Gu over the theft of the Void Sky Cauldron, and had invited Wang Lin to become a third leader. After Lin Yun showed Ling Yuling the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light cultivation art, she discovered it was the technique her parents practiced and hurried away with the jade slip.
Ling Yuling discovered that the Twin Saints’ Primordial Magnetic Divine Light cultivation method had been tampered with, raising fears that the Star Palace’s leaders were in danger as the Inverse Star Alliance advanced. Lin Yun later welcomed Xin Ruoyin after she emerged from seclusion, while the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng escaped into the Herb Garden.
Lin Yun and Xin Ruoyin solved the final problem of stabilizing an ultra-long-distance teleportation passage and completed instructions for an Ancient Teleportation Formation. They planned to return to the Heavenly South to build matching formations there and in the Chaotic Star Sea.
Lin Yun discovered that the Ancient Teleportation Formation in the Heavenly South could not transport him because the array there had been damaged, delaying his return with Nangong Wan and Xin Ruoyin. As Tianxing City prepared to lift its lockdown, Ling Yuling explained that the Inverse Star Alliance had never intended to attack the city directly.
Lin Yun refused to join the Star Palace but agreed to teach it the level five Spell Pellet technique in exchange for Geng Essence and other materials. After Ling Yuling reported the deal, Ling Xiaofeng gave her a fragment of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain to take to Lin Yun as thanks.
Lin Yun received a Geng Essence and a fragment of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain from Ling Yuling in exchange for his grade-five Spell Pellet method. The fragment gave him a path to perfect the Great Five-Element Extinction Divine Light, but he realized he still needed the mountain itself to cultivate the Divine Light Needle.
Lin Yun spent six years cultivating the Great Five-Element Extinction Divine Light as the Star Palace and the Inverse Star Alliance fought over islands and Level Five Demon Cores. In the Outer Sea, Han Li learned that the war and the Abyss Sea becoming a forbidden zone had drawn many hunters there, and he approached three cultivators to ask about the change.
After six years in seclusion, Han Li learned that a mysterious Bug Demon was being blamed for killings matching his supposed methods, and that the Inverse Star Alliance and Star Palace suspected him of stealing the Void Sky Cauldron. He remained unaware of the accusations as he left Strange Abyss Island, while Lin Yun advanced his cultivation and sent Xin Ruoyin and Xiao Mei to seek materials for an Ancient Teleportation Formation.
Nangong Wan left to visit Madam Wen at White Jade Mountain, while Lin Yun refined taiyi refined gold and secluded himself to forge the Clearvoid Invisible Sword. Ten years later, his traveling Yang Spirit avatar encountered two of Man Huzi’s disciples during an attack on a Star Palace island and suddenly transported them away.
Lin Yun tracked down Man Huzi’s disciples and learned that Man Huzi had gone to Strange Abyss Island to search for Han Li. On the island, Lin Yun found Daoist Miaohe, who recognized him from reports of his power in the Void Sky Hall.
Lin Yun learned that demon beasts had surged out of the Sea Abyss and sensed a massive beast tide racing toward Strange Abyss Island. As the island prepared for the attack, Nangong Wan, Madam Wen, Man Huzi, and Extreme Yin fled toward it while discussing Han Li and the Void Sky Cauldron.
As a beast tide surged toward Strange Abyss Island, Daoist Miaohe ordered Blackstone City’s defenses activated while Lin Yun rescued Xin Ruoyin and Xiao Mei. Man Huzi and Extreme Yin fled with other cultivators as the tide overtook their rear ranks, and they wondered why the Flood Dragon Clan was involved.
Nangong Wan reunited with Lin Yun and Xin Ruoyin on Strange Abyss Island as a beast tide approached Blackstone City. With the city under attack and its Teleportation Array destroyed, Lin Yun and the others joined a meeting to discuss their options.
Nascent Soul cultivators gathered in Blackstone City to discuss the Beast Tide, and Lin Yun revealed his identity as Wang Lin. The gathering uncovered that Strange Abyss Island had provoked the Flood Dragon Clan, but the tide’s deeper cause remained unknown.
Lin Yun negotiated with Man Huzi for his geng essence, offering him a pill that could extend his lifespan. Man Huzi agreed to the trade and revealed where he had hidden the essence and other treasures.
As Blackstone City fell to the beast tide, Lin Yun helped some of its cultivators and mortals escape before joining the breakout. The survivors faced level eight demon cultivators across Strange Abyss Island, and an enraged roar rose from behind the beast tide.
Lord Wu Qing, a Ninth-Level Flood Dragon, attacked Lin Yun after the other transformed Flood Dragons pursued the human Nascent Soul cultivators. Lin Yun countered Wu Qing’s attacks, and the chapter ended as he unleashed the Hundred-Spirit Demon-Slaying Sword against the Flood Dragon in his true form.
Lin Yun killed the Azure Flood Dragon and led Nangong Wan, Xin Ruoyin, and Madam Wen to the Inverse Star Alliance’s teleportation island. As they waited for the remaining Nascent Soul cultivators, the chapter revealed the other pursuers’ fates and the chaos spreading after the dragon’s death.
After leaving the Inverse Star Alliance headquarters, Lin Yun and his companions dismantled the Azure Flood Dragon and divided its valuable remains. Lin Yun then retrieved the Geng Essence and other treasures from Man Huzi’s cave on Demon Lake Island.
Lin Yun returned to Tianxing City after obtaining the geng essence and discussed the Strange Abyss Island beast tide and his cultivation with Ling Yuling. Wen Qing, one of the Twin Saints of Tianxing and Ling Yuling’s mother, revealed herself and questioned Lin Yun about his origins.
Lin Yun negotiated with Wen Qing for the location of the Ancient Teleportation Formation leading to Great Jin in exchange for helping her and her husband kill Six Paths Supreme Sage and Wan Sangu. After Wen Qing left, Nangong Wan and Xin Ruoyin returned to Tianxing City and reported defeating an Inverse Star Alliance cultivator.
Lin Yun met Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing inside the Sacred Mountain and gained permission to cultivate near the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain using his Great Five-Element Extinction Divine Light. He returned to Ling Yuling at the Jade Gate and reassured her that he was not cultivating Primordial Magnetic Divine Light.
