The Myriad Immortals Alliance’s Immortal-Dropping Banner was repelled when Jiang Yao used her starlight to restore the Tianyan Sect’s suppressed laws, turning the battle in the sect’s favor.

• Feng Yuan questioned why the Alliance had abandoned its formation and launched a mass charge under the Great Dao’s suppression.

The Myriad Immortals Alliance attacked the Tianyan Sect’s Grotto-Heaven, but Xu Changxing used the Heavenly Dao Painting to erase the invading forces. Just as High Person Sanshou gained the upper hand, a Daluo Immortal Venerable intervened and halted the battle, leaving the Alliance’s intentions uncertain.

• The Myriad Immortals Alliance charged into the Grotto-Heaven, where its immortals faced Daoist Wuchen’s resistance, the Great Dao’s suppression, and attacks from spirit beasts.

Immortal Venerable Zhili arrived to take the defeated immortals away, but Sanshou attacked him and drove him back with Xu Changxing's help.

Xu Changxing negotiated with Immortal Venerable Zhili to ransom the Myriad Immortals Alliance’s captives, securing two Innate Spirit Treasures and other compensation. After the prisoners were released, Xu Changxing considered recruiting immortals from the Immortal Realm to rapidly expand the Grotto-Heaven and went to consult Daoist Wuchen.

• Xu Changxing rebuked Immortal Venerable Zhili for his earlier threats, then agreed to discuss terms for releasing the captured immortals.
• After several days of bargaining, Xu Changxing and Immortal Venerable Zhili agreed on a ransom of the Cloud-Binding Rope, the Immortal-Dropping Banner, treasures worth ten million Origin Crystals, and a promise not to obstruct immigrants from the Immortal Realm.

• Daoist Wuchen recommended inviting whole sects to reduce the risks of admitting individual immortals.
• Xu Changxing proposed the Moonflower Sect, and Daoist Wuchen suggested selecting two additional sects.
• Over several months, Daoist Wuchen and the Golden Immortal Elders chose the Moonflower Sect, Lingyun Sect, and Baizhe Mountain.
• Zhike secured Lingyun Sect's agreement, while Baizhe Mountain accepted an invitation to relocate to the Tianyan Sect.

Xu Changxing moved three sects to the Bottom of the Abyss, where their growth and a Lingyun Sect elder’s breakthrough prompted more Immortal Sects to consider relocating. He reunited with Bu Yufeng, whose fear that Xu’s influence could endanger Seven Star Island left Xu sensing something unusual in his senior brother.

• Xu Changxing relocated the Moonflower Sect, the Lingyun Sect, and Baizhe Mountain to the Bottom of the Abyss, where Baizhe Mountain cultivators began growing treasures under Tianyan Sect protection.
• The Grotto-Heaven’s expansion stirred its Great Dao Laws, and a Lingyun Sect elder attained the Dao and became a Taiyi Immortal Lord.
• News of the sects’ progress spread to the Immortal Realm, and more than ten Immortal Sects expressed interest in moving to the Bottom of the Abyss.
• Xu Changxing received a message from Bu Yufeng and traveled to Seven Star Island to meet his former senior brother.
• Bu Yufeng explained that he had contacted Xu to seek a path forward for Seven Star Island, but feared the sect would be destroyed by the consequences of their old bond.
• As Bu Yufeng spoke, Xu Changxing sensed laws faintly flowing around him.

Xu Changxing returned to the Demon Realm after visiting Bu Yufeng and found Demon-Suppressing Mountain reduced to ruins. He began investigating its destruction and discovered that one of the lingering auras belonged to someone who might still be alive.

• Xu Changxing traced the lingering auras of those who had fought at the site and found one aura that still glowed amid the Great Dao ripples.

Xu Changxing learned that Demon-Suppressing Mountain had been overthrown because it had monopolized cultivation resources, then killed an old cultivator who planned to possess a youth and left the youth a cultivation technique. He traveled to the world where his cultivation began and found the Setting Sun Sect still standing, though its former mountain gate, buildings, and spiritual qi were gone.

• Xu Changxing subdued an old Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator and learned that rogue cultivators had destroyed Demon-Suppressing Mountain after it monopolized cultivation resources.
• Xu Changxing discovered that the old man had prolonged his life through two possessions and planned to possess a youth, so he dispersed the old man's divine soul and left the youth a cultivation technique.
• Xu Changxing left the Demon Realm and traveled to the world where he had first cultivated, intending to visit the Setting Sun Sect.
• Xu Changxing found that the Setting Sun Sect's mountain gate and most of its buildings had vanished, and its depleted earth vein could barely support cultivation.

Xu Changxing discovered that a Li Household family still preserved the Setting Sun Sect’s Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art and learned that its elders believed the Cloudglow Sect had falsely claimed the sect’s legacy. The old man’s grandson vowed to avenge the family, while Xu Changxing observed them silently.

• Xu Changxing inferred that the Setting Sun Sect had scattered after its earth vein dried up and surveyed its former mountain range.
• Xu Changxing noticed an old man holding the Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art and arrived above the man’s cottage.
• The old man refused his grandson’s suggestion to abandon the ancestral technique, citing an oath to preserve the family’s line of succession.
• The old man recounted the Setting Sun Sect’s legends about Ancestor Xu and the sect’s decline after its earth vein dried up.
• The old man angrily rejected the Cloudglow Sect’s claim to be the Setting Sun Sect’s successor, and his grandson promised to tear down its Mountain Gate.

Xu Changxing realized that the Setting Sun Sect's legacy had declined because its cultivation art had failed to keep pace with newer techniques, and he experienced sudden enlightenment about space-time and life and death. After recognizing Li Yuanlin and Li Qing as the sect's true successors, he intervened when Li Qing's cultivation nearly overwhelmed him, leaving Li Qing to suspect he had found the fortuitous opportunity his grandfather had described.

• Xu Changxing examined the Cloudglow Sect and other sects, concluding that the Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art had fallen behind improved cultivation arts.
• Reflecting on the Setting Sun Sect's decline and the efforts of its remaining successors, Xu Changxing entered a lucid state of sudden enlightenment.
• Xu Changxing watched Li Yuanlin and Li Qing cultivate for several months and recognized them as the Setting Sun Sect's true successors.

• Xu Changxing guided Li Qing's true essence along a revised route, saving him and revealing subtle changes to the Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art.
• Li Qing realized that he might have encountered the fortuitous opportunity his grandfather had spoken of.

Li Qing stabilized his cultivation under Xu Changxing’s guidance and received the improved Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art and resources to rebuild the Setting Sun Sect. Xu Changxing set rebuilding the sect and ascending to the Immortal Realm as a test for Li Qing, but as he prepared to leave, the Immortal-Dropping Banner broke free of its suppression and shattered its Storage Ring.

• Li Qing steadied his mind, completed his cultivation, and formed a single enormous cloud pattern from the nine cloud dragons in his dantian.
• Li Qing and Li Yuanlin knelt before Xu Changxing, who praised Li Yuanlin for guarding the Setting Sun Sect and gave him a bottle of immortal pills.
• Xu Changxing told Li Qing he had improved the Cloudglow Reflecting Immortal Art and asked whether Li Qing could rebuild the Setting Sun Sect with it.
• Xu Changxing made rebuilding the Setting Sun Sect and ascending to the Immortal Realm a test, promising Li Qing a place as his inner disciple at the Tianyan Sect if he succeeded.
• Xu Changxing gave Li Qing a Storage Ring with spirit plants, spirit pills, and pill recipes to support the sect’s revival.
• As Xu Changxing turned to leave, the Immortal-Dropping Banner’s true spirit broke free and shattered the Storage Ring holding it.

Xu Changxing recaptured the Immortal-Dropping Banner after its escape attempt injured Li Qing and knocked out Li Yuanlin. He ordered the banner’s true spirit to guard Li Qing and began using reverse space-time to try to extract it from its shell, leaving the true spirit alarmed by his persistence.

• The Immortal-Dropping Banner broke free, but Xu Changxing caught and suppressed it again; its escaped light nearly shattered Li Qing’s divine soul and knocked Li Yuanlin unconscious.
• Xu Changxing told the banner’s true spirit, which appeared as an old man, to serve as Li Qing’s guardian as punishment for injuring him.
• Xu Changxing offered to free the true spirit if it nurtured Li Qing to the Golden Immortal realm, but the old man rejected the offer and accused him of scheming.
• Xu Changxing summoned a laws storm inside the banner to pull the old man from its shell, but the true spirit resisted by dissolving into sand.
• Xu Changxing repeatedly reversed space-time to return the old man to the banner’s edge after each failed attempt, and the true spirit realized he was trying different methods until one worked.

Xu Changxing subdued the Immortal-Dropping Banner’s True Spirit and secured his oath to teach Li Qing until he became a Golden Immortal. He restored Li Qing’s damaged Sea of Consciousness and created a separate space within it for the True Spirit, who began cultivating there.

• Xu Changxing used his fused space-time and life-and-death Laws to pull the Immortal-Dropping Banner’s True Spirit from the banner.
• The True Spirit agreed to teach Xu Changxing’s nominal disciple, Li Qing, until he attained the Golden Immortal realm, and swore an oath witnessed by the Heavenly Dao Painting.
• Xu Changxing promised to free the True Spirit once Li Qing reached the Golden Immortal realm, then used an Immortal Pill to restore Li Qing’s Divine Soul.
• Xu Changxing opened a separate space inside Li Qing’s Sea of Consciousness with his four Daoist Arts, and the True Spirit entered it.
• The True Spirit found the space stable enough to absorb Spiritual Qi and began cultivating, drawing energy around Li Qing into a spiritual storm.

Li Qing awoke to find his cultivation greatly improved and learned that the Immortal-Dropping Banner’s True Spirit would guard him until he reached the Golden Immortal realm. Xu Changxing revealed his power to alter the world he had created and considered using it to survive the Final Tribulation.

• After Xu Changxing left, Li Qing woke, discovered the treasures in his Storage Ring, and sensed that his cultivation and Dantian had improved.
• The Immortal-Dropping Banner’s True Spirit told Li Qing that Xu Changxing had left it in his Sea of Consciousness to protect him until he reached the Golden Immortal realm.
• Li Qing asked what to call the True Spirit; Xu Changxing suggested Patriarch Dawn, but the True Spirit named itself Immortal-Dropping before Xu Changxing altered its words, leading Li Qing to call it Patriarch Dawn.
• The True Spirit realized Xu Changxing could manipulate the Laws within the world he had created and concluded that Xu Changxing held it entirely at his mercy.
• Xu Changxing explained that he had inherited the world at the Bottom of the Abyss and said he might use it to weather the Final Tribulation.

Xu Changxing tried to merge the Great Dao of life, death, time, and space, then followed a divination clue back to Wuyou Immortal Venerable. He asked Wuyou whether he knew about Xu Changxing's missing memories, and Wuyou fell silent.

• Xu Changxing left Ancestor Liming to communicate with Li Qing and cultivated in the void, repeatedly attempting to merge the four Great Dao.
• After tens of thousands of failures, Xu Changxing formed a tiny, stable heaven and earth and sensed that it seemed familiar.
• Xu Changxing used the Tianyan Pearl to divine the source of the familiarity, and it showed Wuyou Immortal Venerable's residence in the Eye of the Great Dao.
• Li Qing broke through to the Void Refinement Realm and ascended after helping establish the Setting Sun Sect in the lower realm.
• Xu Changxing traveled through the Eye of the Great Dao and asked Wuyou Immortal Venerable whether he knew that Xu Changxing had a missing stretch of memory; Wuyou fell silent.
