• He Mu remained in seclusion for many years while Heaven Venerable Daode and Imperial Venerables from Undying Mountain managed the Spirit Realm, and Wuliang Holy Land rose to prominence.

After realizing he had held the Heavenly Heart Imprint for too long, the Spirit Emperor voluntarily relinquished it and ended his reign. The universe’s myriad Daos remained accessible, and the Spirit Realm continued to shine as the era turned over.

• The Spirit Emperor recognized that his long cultivation in the Supreme Great Luo Heaven had accidentally prolonged his rule and prevented the age from ending.

• The Spirit Emperor’s era ended without the Age of Declining Dharma descending, while the Spirit Realm remained radiant.

As the Spirit Emperor stripped away the heavenly heart imprint, He Mu appeared and told Ning Fei that the unclaimed imprint gave him an opportunity to attain the Dao. He Mu directed the Venerables to look at the mortal universe, and Ning Fei was stunned by what he saw.

With He Mu’s approval, Ning Fei began his Dao Attainment Tribulation, which erupted as he reached the Cosmic Frontier.

• Ning Fei fought through the tribulation's devastating lightning while experts across the universe watched in awe.

The chapter traced the Wuliang Holy Land’s rise from a small lineage in Ziwei to the most powerful Immortal Dao inheritance, leaving it at the height of its prestige in the present era.

• Ning Fei attained the Dao and became Emperor, then secluded himself in the Spirit Realm to pursue the Heavenly Emperor Realm and eventual True Immortal cultivation.

• The Wuliang Holy Land endured upheavals and received protection from powerful figures, eventually dominating Big Dipper in Ning Fei’s era.

The chapter explained why the Wuliang Holy Land had grown quiet: its ties to its Heavenly Venerable patriarch seemed distant, its leaders feared he no longer valued them, and it faced a worsening shortage of successors. It left the Wuliang Holy Lord increasingly anxious as he struggled to understand the crisis.

• The chapter described how generations of change and centuries without contact had led some to doubt the Wuliang Holy Land's connection to Immeasurable Heaven Venerable He Mu.

• The Wuliang Holy Land faced a widening gap between generations, with shortages affecting both core successors and the backbone forces needed to run its far-reaching domain.
• The Wuliang Holy Lord grew more worried because he could not identify the root of the succession crisis or find a way to solve it.

The Wuliang Holy Lord warned the Holy Land’s senior figures that its lack of capable successors could eventually threaten its survival and disgrace their founder. After the elders recognized the danger, he called for them to discuss the Holy Land’s future path.

• The Wuliang Holy Lord silenced the hall and asked the elders to discuss which path the Holy Land should take.

After a seven-day deliberation, the Wuliang Holy Land decided to seal away its legacy and withdraw from the world for at least ten thousand years. Its retreat plunged Big Dipper into decades of war and reshaped the balance of power across the star domain.

• The Wuliang Holy Land’s upper ranks decided to preserve their heirs and experts in divine source and relinquish their influence over Big Dipper.
• Ning Fei observed the ancient lineages’ withdrawal from Great Luo Heaven and continued cultivating without intervening.
• Three months later, the Wuliang Holy Lord announced that the Wuliang Holy Land would seal its gates and withdraw from the world for at least ten thousand years.
• Big Dipper’s powers mistook the announcement for a prelude to conquest, then turned on one another when the Wuliang Holy Land made no move to invade.

Ten thousand years after the Ning Emperor attained the Dao, He Mu continued cultivating in seclusion, nearing the threshold of the apex of immortality but unwilling to risk an uncertain breakthrough. News of the Primordial Ancient Mine and developments in the Strange World stirred him to leave the Spirit Realm and journey to the Mortal World.
