• Xiao Hua used the Kunlun Mirror to summon Maitreya Buddha World Honored One, whose presence extinguished the Buddhist light throughout Peacock Hall and its surroundings.
• The peacocks gathered outside grew alarmed, while Fire Phoenix King arrived through the spatial gateway and King Caihuang began to follow.

Maitreya Buddha World Honored One used the ancient meditation cushion to restore Peacock Holy Mother's Buddhist golden body and promised that she could become Peacock Mother Mingwang once Buddhism was established in the Myriad Monster Realm. Xiao Hua worried that Shakyamuni Buddha might be in trouble, while Maitreya Buddha World Honored One withdrew into the Kunlun Mirror to meditate.

• King Caihuang arrived and learned from the little peacocks that a Human Great Sage and another Phoenix Race Great Sage had entered Peacock Hall.
• Maitreya Buddha World Honored One sat on the meditation cushion, awakened its primordial Buddhist light, and restored Peacock Holy Mother's incomplete golden body.
• Maitreya Buddha World Honored One taught Peacock Holy Mother the Peacock King Sutra and said she could become Peacock Mother Mingwang after Buddhism was established in the Myriad Monster Realm.

• Maitreya Buddha World Honored One accepted the Kunlun Mirror, told Peacock Holy Mother to explain its origins to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and entered the mirror to meditate.

The chapter ended with Xiao Hua learning that the Dao Tian Realm and Night Spirit Realm were other possible routes, though their passages and dangers remained unclear.

• When Xiao Hua asked about other routes, Fire Phoenix King described the lightless Night Spirit Realm and the human-inhabited Dao Tian Realm, whose rules prevented ordinary Great Sages from entering.

Xiao Hua and his companions decided to search the Myriad Monster Realm’s dangerous spatial rifts for a route to Xiaoyu Continent, accepting the risk of being stranded in another realm. Peacock Holy Mother and King Caihuang brought them to the Origin Race to seek Great Sage Ji Ying, where Xiao Hua noticed unusual Primordial Chaos aura and golden and silver threads on the local demon spirits.

• King Caihuang explained that spatial passage dangers depended on the strength of the laws in the connected realms, while Peacock Holy Mother warned that passages to the Dao Tian Realm and Night Spirit Realm were unstable.
• Peacock Holy Mother gave Xiao Hua locations of two rifts leading to the Devil Realm, and King Caihuang suggested searching Shiyuan Grotto-heaven for a passage to Xiaoyu Continent.

• Xiao Hua and his companions crossed a spatial gateway into the Origin Race’s Fusang Realm and observed its unusual Primordial Chaos aura and demon spirits marked with golden or silver threads.

Xiao Hua and the others arrived in the Primordial Realm and headed toward Great Sage Dong Xuan and Great Sage Ji Ying. As they approached the Primordial Race’s portal, Huang Tong questioned King Caihuang about the group’s intentions and the two Great Sages’ unusual history.

Xiao Hua entered the Yuan Realm to ask Great Sage Dong Xuan for a route back to the Xiaoyu Continent, but Dong Xuan knew of none and confronted him over the Great Sages he had killed. The chapter left Xiao Hua facing Dong Xuan’s accusation that he killed the Snow Wolf King to conceal the humans living in the Myriad Monster Realm.

• Xiao Hua found himself in a blazing space supported by golden and silver trees, but Great Sage Dong Xuan and the others were nowhere in sight.
• Great Sage Dong Xuan appeared as a Three-legged Golden Crow and challenged Xiao Hua for daring to enter the Yuan Realm.

• Great Sage Dong Xuan accused Xiao Hua of killing the Snow Wolf King to keep her from revealing that humans were multiplying in the Myriad Monster Realm, and asked where those humans were.

Xiao Hua confronted Great Sage Dong Xuan in Tanggu Valley and learned that the valley was bound to Dong Xuan’s soul essence and that the Fusang Tree held ten Three-colored Golden Crows. As the awakened crows surrounded him, Xiao Hua called on his fellow Daoists to appear.

• Great Sage Dong Xuan accused Xiao Hua of invading the Myriad Monster Realm and revealed that he had witnessed humanity’s brutality in another lifetime.
• Xiao Hua recognized Tanggu Valley and the Fusang Trees, then acknowledged that he had brought human descendants into the Myriad Monster Realm to preserve his people.

• Ten Three-colored Golden Crows emerged from the Fusang Tree, and Xiao Hua realized that Great Sage Dong Xuan was a title shared by the crows across generations.
• The golden Three-legged Golden Crow surrounded Xiao Hua with the other crows, and Xiao Hua declared that his fellow Daoists would join him.

Xiao Hua and his avatars confronted Great Sage Dong Xuan and the ten Three-legged Golden Crows in Tanggu Valley, where the crows used the Origin Realm’s spatial laws to attack them. Tian Ren unleashed the Myriad Annihilation Heaven Dou against the Three-legged Golden Crow, but the other crows retreated into the Fusang Tree as Tian Ren’s allies worried about his ability to hold on.

• Xiao Hua summoned his avatars, and Huang Tong revealed that Great Sage Dong Xuan had used the Fusang Tree’s layered Tanggu Valley to separate intruders and trap the Kunlun Mirror’s space.
• The Three-legged Golden Crows made Tanggu Valley’s space melt toward their mouths, frustrating Huang Tong’s and Thunderclap True Person’s attacks until Xiao Hua and his avatars used the Lightning Evasion Technique to escape the spatial assault.
• Xiao Hua fired the Spirit Severing Primordial Light at all ten Three-legged Golden Crows, but leaves from the golden and silver Fusang Trees repeatedly shielded them.
• Tian Ren released the Myriad Annihilation Heaven Dou, which overwhelmed the Three-legged Golden Crow’s defenses and pursued him as he fled toward the Fusang Tree.
• The Three-legged Golden Crow grew enormous and fired a golden tail feather at Tian Ren; Thunderclap True Person intercepted it with Dragon Breath, but the blast wounded Wu Daoist.
• Xiao Hua saw that the other Three-legged Golden Crows had retreated into the Fusang Tree and asked whether Tian Ren could continue holding off his target.

The Heavenly Man used the Myriad Annihilation Heaven Dou to weaken Great Sage Dong Xuan, but Great Sage Ji Ying arrived and revealed why she and Dong Xuan opposed humans entering the Myriad Monster Realm. She explained that the paired Fusang Trees could destroy everything in Tanggu Valley when they closed, while Xiao Hua waited to hear what she would do next.

• The Heavenly Man swept Great Sage Dong Xuan with the Myriad Annihilation Heaven Dou, shrinking his body and stripping away much of his power.
• Great Sage Ji Ying appeared with King Caihuang and Peacock Holy Mother, and Xiao Hua confronted her about allowing Dong Xuan to attack them.
• The Heavenly Man swept Dong Xuan again, and Peacock Holy Mother warned that killing him could cause the Myriad Monster Realm to lose its sun.
• Great Sage Ji Ying briefly raised deadly curtains of light from the golden and silver Fusang Trees, then withdrew them and said she meant only to demonstrate the Primal Realm's power.

• Great Sage Ji Ying revealed that she and Dong Xuan had sent demon spirits to search the Spirit Realm and the Three Great Wildernesses after discovering Xiao Hua had brought humans into the realm.

Xiao Hua faced Great Sage Ji Ying’s demand that he spare Great Sage Dong Xuan, and chose not to endanger the Myriad Monster Realm or force her to reveal its stable passage to Xiaoyu Continent. After Xiao Hua’s group departed through the passage Dong Xuan opened, Dong Xuan began recovering his strength.

• Great Sage Ji Ying explained that killing Great Sage Dong Xuan would bring catastrophe upon the Myriad Monster Realm and endanger the humans and other races living there.
• Great Sage Ji Ying swore to let humans, demons, dragons, and others thrive in the realm, and Great Sage Dong Xuan promised not to harass them.
• Great Sage Ji Ying refused to reveal the stable spatial passage to Xiaoyu Continent, fearing that more humans would enter the Myriad Monster Realm.
• Xiao Hua stopped Tianren from attacking and chose to respect Ji Ying’s refusal rather than force her to disclose the passage.
• Great Sage Dong Xuan opened a spatial passage, and Xiao Hua and the others departed through it.
• Great Sage Dong Xuan returned to the golden Fusang Tree, where its golden light began restoring his diminished strength.

Xiao Hua left the Yuan Realm without forcing Great Sage Ji Ying to reveal the passage to Xiaoyu Continent, then entered Shiyuan Grotto-heaven to search for another route. As he and Huang Tong navigated its chaotic spatial laws, they encountered the Fire Phoenix King.

• Xiao Hua rejected Demon Venerable Slayer’s suggestion to pressure Great Sage Ji Ying, choosing to respect her convictions despite losing the chance to learn the passage to Xiaoyu Continent.
• Xiao Hua thanked the King Caihuang and the Peacock Holy Mother, asked the King Caihuang to protect the humans, Demon Race, and dragons of the Three Great Continents, and announced that he would go to Shiyuan Grotto-heaven.
• Xiao Hua and Huang Tong reached the edge of Shiyuan Grotto-heaven and began searching its immense, dangerous expanse for the passage to Xiaoyu Continent.
• Xiao Hua and Huang Tong encountered the Fire Phoenix King among a cluster of tree-shaped spatial vortices.

Fire Phoenix King revealed a possible direction to a spatial passage leading to Xiaoyu Continent in exchange for learning what King Caihuang had asked Xiao Hua and Huang Tong. After more than ten days of searching Shiyuan Grotto-heaven, Xiao Hua encountered a tangled spatial network that might be the passage they needed.

• Fire Phoenix King told Xiao Hua and Huang Tong that Great Sage Ji Ying had sent him to inspect hidden places in Shiyuan Grotto-heaven, where he suspected a passage connected to Xiaoyu Continent might lie.
• Fire Phoenix King asked why King Caihuang had sought Huang Tong; Xiao Hua explained that she had asked whether Huang Tong and Feng Wu knew a mysterious figure called “him.”
• After learning that King Caihuang was searching for an old human man surnamed Wen, Fire Phoenix King pointed toward a distant region and departed.
• Xiao Hua and Huang Tong searched the dangerous grotto-heaven for more than ten days, then gathered Feng Wu, Thunderclap True Person, and the others to prepare for possible passages.
• After Xiao Hua dodged a vast spatial fissure, the surrounding space heaved and formed nine knots linked by enormous fissures, revealing a tangled spatial network that Xiao Hua suspected could lead to Xiaoyu Continent.

Xiao Hua was caught in the Fire Phoenix King's Nine Origins Breach and struggled to survive the clash of the Myriad Monster Realm's laws with those of an unknown realm. He used the Primordial Spirit Entrustment Art to anchor himself to the laws, then lost consciousness as his ruined body was cast into a distant realm.

• Xiao Hua realized the Fire Phoenix King had lured him into an Innate Grand Array of nine spatial passages, whose force prevented him from sending his incarnations into separate realms.
• Xiao Hua released his Primordial Spirit to resist the collision between the two realms' laws, but his first attempt was destroyed by their counterattack.
• Xiao Hua gradually connected his Primordial Spirit to nearby spatial laws, while Feng Wu, Huang Tong, True Person, and Demon Venerable Slayer seemed to become entrusted to the laws of space.
• Xiao Hua's body continued to disintegrate as he endured the realm passage, and he eventually lost consciousness under the pressure.
• The Fire Phoenix King departed after concluding Xiao Hua could not return to the Myriad Monster Realm and planning to report the matter to Great Sage Ji Ying.
• Xiao Hua's ruined body emerged in a distant, dark mountain range, where the unknown realm's laws annihilated the lingering forces of the passage.

Xiao Hua slowly rebuilt his body after crossing a realm boundary and concluded that he had likely arrived in the Night Spirit Realm. He was left trapped behind powerful restrictions, with his companions and space missing, and began focusing on recovering his cultivation.

• Xiao Hua awakened in darkness, unable to locate his body, his avatars, or his space, and worried that he had been separated from them during the crossing.
• After more than ten days, Primordial Qi began rebuilding Xiao Hua’s body, and his regenerating divine sense revealed that he lay among enormous rocks beneath powerful restrictions.
• Xiao Hua suspected he was in the Night Spirit Realm after finding no sun or moon and judging that the realm’s laws fit his circumstances.
• Xiao Hua sensed Daoist sect formations and heard distant attempts to break through the restrictions, briefly hoping someone nearby could help him.
• Xiao Hua changed his appearance to Zhang Xiaohua, then realized the people outside could not overcome the restrictions and began repairing his body through cultivation techniques.

Xiao Hua slowly repaired his body inside a restriction, realizing that the plane’s laws were rebuilding him and perhaps restoring his incarnations as well. He broke through the formation into sunlight, where four human cultivators confronted him and wondered whether he was the person who had appeared amid the earlier destruction.

• Xiao Hua discovered that the Heaven and Earth Laws, rather than Primordial Qi alone, were slowly repairing his Demigod Physique.
• After more than a hundred days, Xiao Hua noticed parts of his body growing rapidly and suspected his incarnations were being reborn under the plane’s laws.
• Xiao Hua broke through the incomplete restriction and emerged into sunlight, realizing he was not in the Night Spirit Realm.
• Xiao Hua covered his naked body with a banner as four human cultivators surrounded him and demanded it back.
• Liu Qingyu explained that a tremendous force had destroyed the nearby peaks and forests, then suggested that a person rather than a magical artifact might have emerged.
• Senior Brother Hong looked toward Xiao Hua and asked whether Liu Qingyu meant him.

Xiao Hua learned that he had arrived on Yilin Continent, not the Dao Tian Realm, and discovered a possible lead toward Million Meng Mountain. He gave the formation banner to Yuehua and was left needing to find out whether the Wumeng Mountain Range led where he hoped.

• Liu Qingyu gave Xiao Hua clothes, and Xiao Hua dressed before the cultivators demanded the banner he had taken.
• Xiao Hua questioned Zhang Zhi and learned that the group belonged to Chan He Sect on Yilin Continent, while Zhang Zhi knew nothing of the Shaque Immortal Alliance, Dao Tian Realm, Xiaoyu Continent, or Million Meng Mountain.
• Xiao Hua despaired at being stranded far from home until Yuehua mentioned the Wumeng Mountain Range southeast of Yilin Continent as a possible match for Million Meng Mountain.
• Yuehua said the sect records offered no information about what lay beyond the Wumeng Mountain Range and suggested asking Luoxian Sect.
• Xiao Hua thanked Yuehua and gave her the banner.

Xiao Hua, using the name Zhang Xiaohua, joined the Chan He Sect cultivators as they tried to break a powerful array and found his understanding of the realm’s laws deepening. Examining Yuehua’s banner flag, he recognized it as part of the Duotian Star Array and spotted traces of lightning tribulation among the nearby peaks.

• Xiao Hua introduced himself as Zhang Xiaohua and met Liu Qingyu’s disciple Nuo Yeqing, whose manner reminded him of Xiang Zhili.
• Liu Qingyu, Hong Feng, Zhang Zhi, and Nuo Yeqing failed to break the array beyond the corner Xiao Hua had already exposed.
• Xiao Hua sensed that his Primordial Spirit anchoring technique let him perceive the realm as laws and potentially blend with or control it.
• Nuo Yeqing asked Xiao Hua to help break the array, and Xiao Hua requested Yuehua’s banner flag for inspection.
• Xiao Hua identified the banner as part of the Duotian Star Array and noticed signs of lightning tribulation among the surrounding mountain ruins.
