Kalen warned him about a valley where three former overlords vanished and revealed that the blood-soaked killing ground had once been the lair of an ancient Great Overlord.

• Xu Changxing visited the hill and confronted Kalen, whose immense body and strength surpassed those of earlier Abyss Overlords.

Xu Changxing explored a mist-shrouded valley in the Abyss and found the remains of powerful Demonic Beasts leading to a five-element formation. There, he met Zhongji Daoist, who had hidden from the Immortal Realm’s Final Tribulation, and the chapter ended with Xu Changxing questioning his claim that no escape was possible.

• Xu Changxing entered the valley and used the Time Great Dao to confirm that Demonic Beasts had died there in waves.
• He found the skeletons of two Abyss lords, both of whom had fallen before reaching the valley’s depths.
• Xu Changxing reached a platform with five elemental flags that altered the surrounding Great Dao Laws.

• When Xu Changxing said he sought a way to survive the Final Tribulation, Zhongji Daoist erupted in anger and ordered him to leave.
• Xu Changxing asked Zhongji Daoist why he believed there was no way to escape the Final Tribulation there.

Xu Changxing exposed the false Zhongji Daoist as the Abyss Great Overlord Kalen, who had absorbed Zhongji Daoist’s memories after killing him. Xu Changxing resisted the overlord’s temptations and attacks, and the chapter ended with the imprisoned beast urging him to enter the formation if he wanted to fight.

• Xu Changxing challenged the voice claiming to be Zhongji Daoist and identified it as the Great Overlord Kalen.
• Xu Changxing dispersed the storm and revealed the enormous demon imprisoned beneath the Five Elements Formation Flags.

• Xu Changxing left the mist-shrouded valley rather than risk entering the Abyss Great Overlord’s trap.
• Xu Changxing placed forty-nine formation cores across the Ninety-Ninth Abyss Layer and completed the Domain Formation, whose changing laws Kalen sensed while he pretended to sleep.
• Xu Changxing activated the formation, spreading Immortal Light that calmed low-level Demonic Beasts and exposed the layer’s underlying Great Dao and hidden Spatial Rifts.
• The Abyss Great Overlord broke free of the Five Elements Formation Flags, absorbed the mist, and transformed into a gray-bearded Daoist.
• Xu Changxing stopped the formation and asked whether he should address the Daoist as Zhongji Daoist or Great Overlord.

After Zhongji destroyed Xu Changxing’s Domain Formation and unleashed an army of blood dragons, Xu Changxing resisted his Weirdness Laws and shattered the space around them.

• Zhongji Daoist explained that he had refined the Abyss Great Overlord and spent a million years suppressing its tainted Slaughter Laws.
• Zhongji Daoist demanded that Xu Changxing merge with him, but Xu Changxing activated his Domain Formation and said Zhongji had lost his home-ground advantage.

• As Xu Changxing’s formation reaped the blood dragons, Zhongji Daoist’s scattered flesh could no longer fully form his face.

Xu Changxing used the Tianyan Pearl to devour the Abyss layer’s Great Dao and counter Zhongji Daoist’s curses, driving Zhongji Daoist to unleash his blood dragons. After Zhongji Daoist anchored time to prevent Xu Changxing from reversing it, Xu Changxing charged directly at the dragons.

• Xu Changxing used the Tianyan Pearl to extract the Great Daos sustaining the Abyssal layer, causing its foundation to shake and revealing hidden Spatial Rifts.
• Xu Changxing searched the revealed rifts and found an unusually deep Spatial Rift with a faint aura from farther down the Abyss.

Xu Changxing extracted the Ninety-Ninth Abyss Layer’s Great Dao Laws and erased Zhongji Daoist’s imprints, leaving the realm near collapse. He questioned Kalen about the Bottom of the Abyss and the mysterious spatial fissure, but Kalen could not explain who had created it.

• Xu Changxing marked the spatial fissure and used the Tianyan Pearl to extract the layer’s Great Dao Laws, then used the Annihilation Dao Art to erase Zhongji Daoist’s traces from them.
• After several days of extraction, the Ninety-Ninth Abyss Layer’s Great Dao had withered, and Xu Changxing suppressed the insights he gained from destroying the realm.
• Xu Changxing approached the frightened Kalen and asked what he knew about the Bottom of the Abyss.
• Kalen explained that Abyss Great Overlords entered the Bottom of the Abyss near the ends of their lives, where the Great Dao of Slaughter drove them toward madness and death.
• Xu Changxing asked who might have left the spatial fissure and whether other Great Overlords had existed in the layer, but Kalen did not know.

Xu Changxing questioned Kalen about a Spatial Rift that might lead to the Bottom of the Abyss and made him prepare to enter it first. After Kalen explained his preparations and agreed to guide Xu Changxing, Xu Changxing widened and stabilized the rift, leaving them ready to enter.

• Xu Changxing asked Kalen whether the Spatial Rift led to the Bottom of the Abyss, and Kalen said his Bloodline Memory suggested it did.

• Kalen explained that destroying the layer's rules had awakened suppressed, disordered Bloodline Memories about the Bottom of the Abyss.
• After Kalen declared himself ready, Xu Changxing used golden light to widen the Spatial Rift and stabilize it.

Xu Changxing followed Kalen through the Spatial Passage and confirmed that it led to the bottom of the Abyss, where destruction and slaughter eroded demons into madness. After exploring the blood-red land for months, he witnessed how ancient spatial fissures dragged demons into the deadly realm.

• Kalen entered the spatial fissure, and Xu Changxing used an imprint on him to inspect the other side before following him through to the bottom of the Abyss.
• Xu Changxing found that the realm's laws of destruction and slaughter stirred violent urges, while Kalen claimed his apparent bloodlust was an act to avoid standing out.
• Xu Changxing concealed his aura and traveled with Kalen for months, observing Overlord battles and demons briefly regain clarity after devouring other Overlords before falling back into madness.
• When an injured demon lord charged at him, Xu Changxing casually killed it.
• Xu Changxing witnessed a battle's law fluctuations revive an ancient Spatial Passage, which dragged ordinary demons into the Abyss, where most were killed or began to succumb to its laws.

Xu Changxing searched the Abyss for an unusual place while Kalen remained wary of the slaughtering demons around them. After Kalen devoured a slain Overlord and discovered a place with an aura like Xu Changxing’s, Xu Changxing ordered him to lead the way.

• Kalen lamented that demons trapped at the bottom of the Abyss were doomed, and told Xu Changxing that the center held increasingly chaotic laws and powerful Overlords.

• After receiving no answer, Xu Changxing announced that he would enter, while Kalen stayed outside.
• Xu Changxing explored the forest and sensed its Great Dao transforming the Abyss’s foul power into life for its plants, birds, and beasts.

Xu Changxing advanced to the bottleneck of attaining the Dao after contemplating the cycle of life and destruction in the Grotto-Heaven. Its creator entrusted the world and its Daoist Field to him, leaving Xu Changxing with a powerful refuge and a chance to further his cultivation.

• Xu Changxing vanished and returned with the corpse of an Abyss Great Overlord, giving it to Kalen to devour as his reward.

Xu Changxing brought Kalen to a new layer of the Abyss, cleared away its powerful demons, and made him its sole overlord. After settling his promise to Kalen, Xu Changxing opened a rift to another Abyss layer.

• Xu Changxing suggested that another place might suit Li Changge and conjured a screen showing the Bottom of the Abyss.

Xu Changxing invited Li Changge to become the first guardian Sword Immortal of the grotto-heaven he inherited from the Azure-Robed Dao Ancestor, and offered to take him there before he decided whether to break through. On the way, they encountered Kalen, who had grown stronger and cleverer and pledged to help Li Changge if needed.

• Xu Changxing explained that the grotto-heaven could resist the Bottom of the Abyss's destructive Great Dao and asked Li Changge to help expand it across the Abyss as its first guardian Sword Immortal.
• Xu Changxing revealed that the grotto-heaven came from the Azure-Robed Dao Ancestor, and Li Changge agreed to visit it before deciding whether to make his breakthrough there.
• After resting for several days, Li Changge traveled with Xu Changxing and Jiang Yao through a spatial rift to the layer where Kalen resided.

• Xu Changxing used his token to stir the Grotto-Heaven’s underlying Great Dao as Li Changge’s Great Dao rooted itself within it and touched the Bottom of the Abyss’s underlying laws.
• Blood-colored storms swept across the Bottom of the Abyss, while the Azure-Robed Dao Ancestor divined that Xu Changxing had found an exceptionally talented guardian.

Li Changge broke through to become a Taiyi Immortal Lord in the Bottom of the Abyss, aided by the Azure-Robed Dao Ancestor's gift of a Seven-Colored Divine Stone.
