Chapter Summaries

Wang Ba managed the Little Cang Realm’s scarce resources and chose to avoid a mysterious object beyond the boundary, despite Cang Fuzi’s suspicion that it contained a Primordial Dao Treasure. After recruiting two rogue cultivators to develop cheaper ways to support the realm, he revealed that the mortals inside it might provide a solution to their shortage of materials.

• Wang Ba tested the Pitch-Black Copper Staff, checked the boundary for danger, and learned that the Plague Demon had appeared near the entrance but hesitated to enter.
• Wang Ba advised Zhao Feng to eventually resign as Sect Master, then reviewed proposals for making Floating Law Artifacts more cheaply and favored methods from rogue cultivators Nong Yushi and Chen Xu.
• Wang Ba and Zhao Feng ordered the inhabitants to conserve Spiritual Qi because the Little Cang Realm had found no primal chaos source substance to sustain its journey.
• When a mysterious black object appeared beyond the boundary, Wang Ba ordered Fanming to pass it by; Cang Fuzi later said it might be a World Embryo containing a Primordial Dao Treasure.
• Wang Ba and Zhao Feng recruited Nong Yushi and Chen Xu to develop cheaper Floating Law Artifacts and talismans, then Wang Ba suggested the realm’s mortals could help supply the missing materials.
• A vast mass of pure incense power surged from the realm’s interior, astonishing Zhao Feng.

Wang Ba and Zhao Feng tested whether incense could create Floating Law Talismans, then Wang Ba assessed how to rebuild the Little Cang Realm while confronting the problems of its True Martial Practitioners. After the realm passed a dead world and Wang Ba prepared a True Martial Incarnation, the Tribulation Crossing cultivator appeared and Fanming abruptly lost the ability to fly.

• Ling Weizi and the Talisman Masters made Floating Law Talismans, and Wang Ba and Zhao Feng decided Ling Weizi should produce some while Wang Ba used incense to make the rest.
• Wang Ba surveyed the recovering continents, worried that Northern Uttarakuru’s True Martial Practitioners were hindering production, and learned from Cang Fuzi that changing the continent’s rules would consume too much world origin.
• Jiang Yi spotted a dead realm with damage apparently caused by a World Eater, and Zhao Feng entered sudden enlightenment as Wang Ba refused to investigate and sent out talismans to warn of pursuit.
• Wang Ba found that the Origin Embryo needed more blood Qi than the Undying Divine Tree could provide, then saw the purple-robed Tribulation Crossing cultivator appear and vanish.
• The Daoist Grounds shook, and Fanming’s sudden inability to fly alerted Wang Ba that something had changed beyond the boundary.

Wang Ba discovered a vast, deadly Wind Disaster in the Boundary Sea and warned the Little Cang Realm to prepare for danger after talismans near a suspected Annihilated Boundary Domain were triggered. After a month spent skirting the wind, the realm encountered a living, lower-ranked realm wrapped in Primal Chaos Source Substance.

• Wang Ba found that invisible winds were battering Fanming and the Little Cang Realm, then tested their strength and saw them pulverize Sixth Tier spiritual material.
• Wang Ba guided Fanming along the Wind Disaster’s edge and returned to the realm, where Jiying reported that talismans near the suspected Annihilated Boundary Domain had been triggered.
• Wang Ba told Jiying to alert the Longevity Sect and Wandering Immortal Temple, warned Jiang Yi about the Wind Disaster and the mysterious Double-Pupiled Daoist, and urged her to prepare for trouble.
• Wang Ba and Jiang Yi spent a month traveling along the seemingly immense Wind Disaster while Wang Ba studied the Pitch-Black Copper Staff and planned to strengthen his forces.
• The Little Cang Realm stopped before a small black realm wrapped in Primal Chaos Source Substance, and Cang Fuzi recognized it as a living realm of lower rank.

Wang Ba cautiously investigated a low-ranked World Domain, sending Jiying and other cultivators inside after they captured its World Eaters. Tang Ji returned with the news that the world was inhabited by beasts and plants but had no cultivators, making it Unclaimed Land.

• Wang Ba sent A Da to scout the World Domain and learned that only fourth- and fifth-tier World Eaters guarded it.
• Wang Ba tested the surrounding void with talismans, then had Jiying lead a team from the three sects toward the World Domain while A Da secretly followed.
• The Little Cang Realm cultivators captured the World Eaters, but the World Domain did not answer Jiying’s calls, so they blasted open its Boundary Membrane.
• A fourth-tier Fierce Beast emerged from the opening, and Jiying and the other cultivators entered the realm to investigate.
• Tang Ji returned and told Wang Ba that the world had land, water, plants, and beasts, but no cultivators, making it Unclaimed Land.

Wang Ba explored a small, unclaimed World Domain with no World Spirit and discovered a strange Golden Lotus Spirit Beast whose seeds benefited the Primordial Spirit. After Jiying led him to a buried cultivator’s site, Wang Ba opened its stone door and found what appeared to be an abandoned sect suspended over an abyss.

• Wang Ba sent Fanming and the Little Cang Realm to gather Primal Chaos Source Substance, then entered the World Domain with Tang Ji.
• Wang Ba explored the volcanic wilderness, collected unusual Spirit Plants, and discovered a Golden Lotus Spirit Beast that produced Primordial Spirit-benefiting seeds.
• Wang Ba followed the Golden Lotus Spirit Beasts into an underground lava cavern and captured more than a dozen of them.
• Jiying told Wang Ba that he and the others had uncovered a sealed cave abode while digging into a Fourth Tier Spirit Mine.
• Wang Ba opened the ancient stone door and found a passage leading to floating stone islands and buildings that appeared to belong to a small sect.
• Wang Ba entered a dwelling filled with abandoned beds and clothing as Tang Ji and the others announced they had found the Cultivation Method Hall.

Wang Ba explored the ruins of the Spark Sect in the Guantao Realm, recovering ancient cultivation legacies and records about the Demonic Daoist. As the last protected room collapsed, he saw a portrait revealing that the Demonic Daoist was a purple-robed Daoist with double pupils.

• Wang Ba read Rogue Person Baiyun’s introductory tablet, learned the realm’s name, and discovered Baiyun had warned disciples to flee from the Demonic Daoist.
• Wang Ba recovered a tablet containing 3,652 cultivation legacies and a Compendium of Local Things before the cultivation method hall crumbled away.
• Wang Ba found Baiyun’s writing, which described the Demonic Daoist’s repeated returns and Baiyun’s plan to venture beyond the boundary into the Land of Wind Evil.
• As the room’s protective paperweight cracked, Wang Ba unfurled a deteriorating painting and saw a purple-robed Daoist with double pupils, realizing he was the Demonic Daoist.

Wang Ba uncovered evidence that the Demonic Daoist was still alive and fled the Guantao Realm, bringing its continent into the Little Cang Realm before absorbing the rest of the world. After sensing danger, he moved through the Boundary Sea, where World Eaters attacked and a black river of Primordial Gods and Devils caught up with them.

• Wang Ba ordered the cultivators to leave the Guantao Realm, then severed and lifted its continent into the Little Cang Realm beside Northern Uttarakuru.
• Cang Fuzi absorbed the Guantao Realm while Wang Ba observed its rules forming, but warned that something had set its sights on them.
• Wang Ba ordered Fanming to leave the area, and the Little Cang Realm traveled through the void as the remaining Primal Chaos Source Substance dwindled.
• A Pink Rabbit subdued a swarm of World Eaters, swallowed them, and was saved from their plague toxin by Dafu.
• Cang Fuzi sensed danger ahead, and Wang Ba spotted floating rocks that might conceal more World Eaters before seeing a black river of Primordial Gods and Devils pursuing them.

Wang Ba led Fanming and the Little Cang Realm through a swarm of World Eaters, only to be confronted by a powerful Flame-Red Strange Bird. Black Tortoise intervened, but a four-eyed giant appeared, killed the bird, and fixed its gaze on Wang Ba as it asked where he thought he was going.

• Wang Ba ordered Fanming to flee when the pursuing Black River of World Eaters caught up with them.
• Fanming charged through suspended stones and fought off World Eaters before Wang Ba spotted a Flame-Red Strange Bird guarding their path.
• The Flame-Red Strange Bird tore open the Little Cang Realm's Boundary Membrane, seized Fanming, and burned its wings.
• Black Tortoise burst through the wound and froze the Flame-Red Strange Bird while Pink Rabbit devoured nearby World Eaters.
• The Flame-Red Strange Bird began breaking free, but a four-eyed giant killed it and blocked Black Tortoise's attacks.
• The four-eyed giant looked toward Wang Ba and asked where he thought he was going.

Wang Ba led the Little Cang Realm into the Wind Disaster region to escape the pursuing World Eaters, relying on the Primordial Dao Treasure’s power to shield Fanming and the realm from the deadly winds. They passed a mysterious vortex and continued deeper into the region, disrupting the purple-robed Daoist’s plan.

• The Six-Fingered Primordial God and Devil attacked the Little Cang Realm, but A Da, Wang Ba, and Xun Fujun stalled it long enough for Fanming to escape.
• Xun Fujun warned Wang Ba to flee before his power faded, and Wang Ba ordered Fanming to carry the Little Cang Realm into the Wind Disaster region.
• Jiang Yi realized Wang Ba had deliberately chosen the dangerous route, while the pursuing World Eaters stopped at the region’s edge.
• As Fanming and the Little Cang Realm suffered under the fierce winds, Wang Ba used his copper staff’s Wind Driving ability to make the winds harmless and shield them.
• Wang Ba directed Fanming over a vortex and deeper into the Wind Disaster region, causing the purple-robed Daoist watching from outside to realize his plan had been disrupted.

Wang Ba spent more than thirty years guiding Fanming and the Little Cang Realm through the wind disaster region while the inhabitants recovered and cultivated. He finished refining the Wind-Driving Staff, calmed the winds, and gave Fanming and the realm a chance to rest, though he sensed their peaceful journey was nearing its end.

• Jiang Yi urged the cultivators to cultivate after their helplessness against the Six-Fingered Primordial God and Devil, and they returned to their duties with renewed resolve.
• Wang Ba gathered World Eater remains to strengthen the Little Cang Realm, while Dafu cared for the sleeping pink rabbit and secretly licked away the ink the Burrowing Sea Otter had painted on it.
• Wang Ba surveyed the realm and found its cultivators progressing rapidly, but the True Martial Incarnation embryo still lacked enough blood Qi to finish gestating.
• Wang Ba immersed himself in wind-path cultivation as he guided Fanming through the wind disaster region, and more than thirty years passed without an outside disturbance.
• Jiang Yi and Ling Weizi worried that Fanming was tiring and discussed the cultivators' advances, including the rise of Jiying, Liang Wuji, and the Wu Ape King to Void Refinement.
• Wang Ba completed the Wind-Driving Staff's three Primordial Cloud Restrictions, revealed its jade form, and used it to still the winds so Fanming and the Little Cang Realm could rest.

After reaching Void Refinement, Wang Ba reasoned with Jiang Yi that the double-pupiled Daoist was likely driving the Little Cang Realm into the Wind Disaster Region, where they might still find places beyond his reach. Wang Ba tended to cultivation and his spirit beasts, but the white expanse beyond the boundary began moving toward the Little Cang Realm.

• Wang Ba emerged from his tribulation as a Void Refinement cultivator and told Jiang Yi that he sensed a change in the wind beyond the boundary.
• Wang Ba explained that he had seen the double-pupiled Daoist’s portrait in the Guantao Realm and suspected the Daoist had used the primordial god or devil to force the Little Cang Realm into the Wind Disaster Region.
• Wang Ba and Jiang Yi concluded that the Daoist might not control every part of the Wind Disaster Region, so they resolved to stay alert and continue cultivating.
• Wang Ba inspected the stalled True Martial Incarnation’s Origin Embryo, then settled the Golden Lotus Spirit Beasts in a fiery habitat and discovered their seeds could nourish his Primordial Spirit.
• Wang Ba observed Jia Ten Five’s rapid cultivation on Spirit Chicken Mountain and found that the Moruo Colossal Elephant breeding stock had grown to over four hundred fifth-tier elephants.
• After months of tending the Lotus Maidens, Wang Ba saw a spreading white expanse beyond the boundary and realized it had finally arrived.

Wang Ba and the Little Cang Realm endured a devastating wind disaster and emerged into a white, mist-filled region where the powder suppressed Law Power. While investigating a nearby presence, Wang Ba and the others discovered countless floating corpses, then saw them awaken with uncanny Double Pupils.

• Jiang Yi spotted a vast white cloud advancing toward the Little Cang Realm, and Wang Ba ordered the cultivators to prepare defenses before guiding the realm and Fanming into the storm.
• Wang Ba used the Wind-Driving Staff to steer the Little Cang Realm through the fierce winds and flying stones until they reached a calmer region filled with white dust.
• Wang Ba and the other Void Refinement Cultivators discovered that the powder suppressed Law Power, then followed the Wu Ape King into the mist after he sensed something nearby.
• Wang Ba and the others found thousands of silent cultivator corpses floating in the mist, including one dressed in grayish-purple clothing.
• The grayish-purple corpse opened its eyes to reveal Double Pupils, and the surrounding corpses began to straighten and open their eyes as well.

Wang Ba and the others fled the double-pupiled beings aboard the Little Cang Realm, but a powerful windstorm forced them toward a mysterious rock. Just as the realm was about to be swept away, an enormous gray hand rescued it and pulled it onto the rock, which Wang Ba recognized as a Yuan Magnetism Rail Domain.

• Jiang Yi, Jiying, Liang Wuji, Wang Ba, and the Wu Ape King retreated from the double-pupiled beings and fled inside the Little Cang Realm as the figures pursued them through the white mist.
• Wang Ba suspected the beings were driving them toward a destination, and the Wu Ape King ventured out to test their strength; the beings attacked him, but he escaped with Divine Foot Power.
• Wang Ba turned Fanming around and charged the Little Cang Realm through the double-pupiled beings, confirming that they did not stop the realm from passing through them.
• When Wang Ba sensed a powerful windstorm approaching, he turned back and tried to guide the Little Cang Realm toward a huge black rock, while the Wu Ape King shielded it with Buddhist light.
• A violent gust separated Fanming from the Little Cang Realm and swept the realm past the rock, but an enormous gray hand caught it and dragged it onto the rock.
• Wang Ba recognized the rock as a Yuan Magnetism Rail Domain and wondered whether cultivators were living there.

Wang Ba and the Yuan Magnetism Rail Man encountered Yu Wuhen, Li Yuehua’s estranged daughter, inside the Wind Disaster region and learned how she had reached her extraordinary cultivation level. Yu Wuhen joined them, and the chapter ended with the Yuan Magnetism Rail Man recognizing that her wind-warding stone resembled the Wind-Driving Staff.

• Wang Ba used the Wind-Driving Staff to stabilize the Little Cang Realm, then recognized Yu Wuhen when she confirmed that Li Yuehua was still alive.
• The Yuan Magnetism Rail Man explained Yu Chen’s sacrifice and Li Yuehua’s later efforts to find Yu Wuhen; Yu Wuhen said she still resented how her mother had treated her.
• Yu Wuhen drew the Yuan Magnetism Rail Man into her secluded rocky domain, where they compared their encounters with the purple-robed Daoist and the Wind Disaster region.
• Yu Wuhen asked about Li Yuehua’s other disciple and learned she had probably reincarnated, then went to verify the Yuan Magnetism Rail Man’s account in the Little Cang Realm.
• Yu Wuhen revealed that her Dao Domain had reached Integrated Body Late Stage and explained that a jade-like stone had protected her from the wind.
• The Yuan Magnetism Rail Man examined Yu Wuhen’s stone and remarked that its material resembled the Wind-Driving Staff.

Yuan Magnetism Rail Man and Wang Ba discovered that Yu Wuhen’s Wind-Calming Stone came from a World Embryo and helped stabilize her damaged Primordial Spirit when her Dao Domain erupted. Yu Wuhen gave Wang Ba the stone to repay the favor, leaving him curious about its connection to the Wind-Driving Staff.

• Yuan Magnetism Rail Man recognized Primordial Cloud Restrictions in Yu Wuhen’s Wind-Calming Stone, and Yu Wuhen explained that she had found it inside a World Embryo.
• Yu Wuhen revealed that she could not ascend or find a way out of the Wind Disaster region, then rejected Wang Ba’s offer to join forces with the Little Cang Realm.
• Yu Wuhen’s Dao Domain surged as her Primordial Spirit burned and her body developed black marks, so Yuan Magnetism Rail Man and Wang Ba acted to protect her.
• Yuan Magnetism Rail Man supported the Little Cang Realm while Black Tortoise carried Wang Ba close to Yu Wuhen, and Wang Ba used Lotus Maiden’s lotus seeds to stabilize her Primordial Spirit.
• Yu Wuhen recovered and tossed Wang Ba the Wind-Calming Stone to repay his favor, and Wang Ba returned to the Little Cang Realm wondering how it connected to the Wind-Driving Staff.

Wang Ba discovered that Qin Lingxiao’s True Spirit might have perished, then investigated the Wind-Calming Stone and faced the Little Cang Realm’s prolonged isolation in the storm. He reorganized the realm’s resources around a new Hundred Arts Academy and, after summoning Wang Yi'an, flew with him toward the True Martial Practitioners’ lands.

• Wang Ba divined that Qin Lingxiao had neither reincarnated nor appeared as a True Spirit, and Yuan Magnetism Rail Man realized she had perished.
• Wang Ba joined Yu Wuhen’s Wind-Calming Stone with the Wind-Driving Staff, discovering that they were parts of one Primordial Dao Treasure with more restrictions yet to be revealed.
• After three years of violent winds, Wang Ba lost his connection to Fanming and learned from Yu Wuhen that the storm might last seven or eight hundred years.
• Wang Ba brought Yu Wuhen Lotus Maiden Lotus Seeds, and she warned him that the Little Cang Realm might be better off staying where it was.
• Wang Ba summoned the realm’s leaders, established plans for a Hundred Arts Academy, and set minimum resource quotas tied to cultivation contributions.
• Wang Ba called Wang Yi'an away from the meeting and led him through the Boundary Membrane toward Northern Uttarakuru.

Wang Ba sent Wang Yi'an to live among the True Martial Practitioners and help them find a future, while Wang Yi'an erased his memories and became Yao. In Northern Uttarakuru, Yao revived villagers with a technique and taught them skills that they named Witchcraft; meanwhile, the Wu Ape King warned Wang Ba that something had passed through the wind outside.

• Wang Ba urged Wang Yi'an to return to the True Martial Practitioners and gave him a Jade Slip of Curse Techniques that worked without Law Power.
• Wang Yi'an saw how the True Martial Practitioners lived in primitive villages and realized he needed to share their lives to keep from becoming detached from them.
• Wang Yi'an cut off his hair, sealed away his sword, cleared his mind, and took the name Yao.
• Yao used Fierce Beast blood, beeswax, and his hair to revive villagers who had recently died, then offered to teach the technique to the village leader.
• The leader named the techniques Witchcraft and called their practitioners the Witch People or Witch Tribe.
• The Wu Ape King told Wang Ba that something seemed to have passed through the wind outside.

Wang Ba learned the Truth-Listening Technique and began collecting objects blown through the white mist, while refining a new method for fifth-tier Dragon-Elephant Dao Soldiers. After finding a bronze basin containing sea pearls, he went to study whether it could produce them, leaving the Wu Ape King to guard the boundary.

• The Wu Ape King sensed something passing beyond the boundary, and Wang Ba learned the Truth-Listening Technique from him and detected the passing object himself.
• Wang Ba asked Yu Wuhen about the objects carried by the wind, and she explained that they could be useful treasures or scraps before her Dao Intent began to dissipate again.
• Wang Ba waited with the Wu Ape King, perfected the fifth-tier Dragon-Elephant Dao Soldiers, and used them to form a gold-and-black bracelet with strength approaching a fourth-tier Dao Domain.
• The Wu Ape King retrieved a massive transparent crystal and an ancient stone disc from the white mist, and Wang Ba sent them to the Little Cang Realm for study.
• The Wu Ape King brought back a bronze basin containing transparent beads, and Wang Ba recognized the beads as sea pearls and went to study the basin with Cang Fuzi.
• The Wu Ape King remained alone at the boundary, meditating as the wind outside tempered his body.

Wang Ba refined the Immortal Essence Treasure Basin and discovered it could turn forces from the white mist into sea pearls, giving him a possible new resource source for the Little Cang Realm. After Jiying reported the Hundred Arts Academy’s findings about several strange treasures and asked to borrow Wang Ba’s sixth-tier Sea Pearl, Wang Ba considered using the basin to replenish it.

• Cang Fuzi and Wang Ba tested the bronze basin with primal chaos source substance and confirmed it slowly condensed sea pearls.
• Wang Ba spent more than forty years refining the basin’s first primordial cloud restriction, naming the golden treasure the Immortal Essence Treasure Basin, and found that lava striking it could also produce sea pearls.
• Wang Ba tested the basin in the white mist outside the realm and confirmed it condensed a tiny sea pearl; he then returned to refining its second restriction.
• Jiying told Wang Ba that Chen Xu had identified the strange yellow paper as a likely seventh- or eighth-tier sealing talisman, and Wang Ba ordered it kept secure.
• Jiying presented Nong Yushi’s design for a Combined Law Artifact, which could drain the Little Cang Realm’s power for a devastating attack, and Wang Ba approved its development.
• Jiying asked to borrow Wang Ba’s sixth-tier Sea Pearl so the Hundred Arts Academy could study the Zhou Tian One-Qi Formation, and Wang Ba realized the basin might help replenish it.

Wang Ba sent the Yin God Bow into the realm, where Wang Yi'an used its arrival to unite the Witch, Fire, and Water Tribes under his rule as Emperor Yao. More than eighty years later, Wang Ba awoke from cultivation when an unprecedented surge of Incense Power reached him.

• Jiying asked Wang Ba for a sixth-tier Sea Pearl, and Wang Ba lent it to the Hundred Arts Academy while planning to refine the Immortal Essence Treasure Basin.
• Wang Ba sensed Wang Yi'an was in trouble and sent a crimson bow into the realm, where Yao faced a planned alliance between the Fire Tribe Chief Zhu Yan and the Water Tribe Chief Xuanwen.
• The Yin God Bow appeared in a crater, and Yao defeated Xuanwen's attack, then proposed that whoever earned the bow's recognition would rule all three tribes.
• Zhu Yan failed to reach the bow, while Xuanwen was pursued by an invisible arrow; Yao then held the bow and offered to yield leadership if anyone could draw it within three days.
• Zhu Yan and Xuanwen submitted their tribes to Yao, who became known to history as Emperor Yao.
• After more than eighty years passed, Wang Ba was jolted from cultivation by a surge of Incense Power far stronger than any he had sensed before.
