Su Yi accompanied Huang Changyu and Ji Zeyang into the base's storeroom, where Ji Zeyang claimed the Houyi Divine Bow as his own. Xu Diandian led Su Yi to the bowl she wanted, and he remembered its ancient origins and the hundreds of beast heads he had carved onto it.

• Ji Zeyang told Huang Changyu the storeroom needed a defensive formation and offered to set one up.
• The group entered the storeroom and found Su Yi's collection of powerful treasures gathered together.
• Ji Zeyang picked up the Houyi Divine Bow, believing it had acknowledged him, while Su Yi knew its spirit had asked for another master.
• Su Yi asked Xu Diandian to show him the bowl she had chosen, and she led him deeper into the storeroom.
• Su Yi recognized the bowl he had made and used for tens of thousands of Dao Years, decorated with more than five hundred carved beast heads.

Su Yi revealed that Xu Diandian’s unassuming bowl was a supreme treasure, despite its artifact spirit claiming it was only useful for eating. The bowl spirit, whom Xu Diandian named Little Flower, drove the Green Duckweed Sword’s spirit to realize how badly it had underestimated the bowl.

• Su Yi summoned the bowl’s white-mist artifact spirit and let it explain itself to Xu Diandian.
• Xu Diandian named the spirit Little Flower, who said it could be used for eating and happily accepted her choice.
• The Green Duckweed Sword’s spirit urged Xu Diandian to choose other treasures and mocked the bowl, recommending the Soul-Devouring Bell instead.
• Little Flower unleashed an overwhelming aura that nearly shattered the Green Duckweed Sword and forced its spirit to recognize its mistake.
• Su Yi’s carved beast heads and tens of thousands of years using the bowl had made it a supreme treasure containing the power of the Great Dao.

Xu Diandian chose an unassuming bowl whose aura frightened the Green Duckweed Sword, though the bowl insisted the other artifacts were simply too weak. With her choice made, Wang Xiu asked Su Yi to help him select a treasure, and Su Yi pointed him toward a chipped inkstone.

• The Green Duckweed Sword's spirit begged Su Yi for help when Little Flower suppressed it, then apologized and retreated into the sword.

• Wang Xiu asked Su Yi to help him choose a treasure, and Su Yi pointed out a plain inkstone with a chipped corner.

Su Yi encouraged Wang Xiu to take an ancient inkstone and brush from the storehouse, suggesting that cultivating his sensibilities could help him advance. Wang Xiu trusted Su Yi and chose the two items, while Su Yi left without taking anything.

• Wang Xiu examined Su Yi’s ancient inkstone, and its artifact spirit appeared and explained that it was meant for grinding ink, not smashing people.
• Su Yi advised Wang Xiu to practice calligraphy and painting to improve his state of mind, and offered him a worn brush as well as the inkstone.
• Wang Xiu accepted Su Yi’s advice and chose the inkstone and brush, declining to take anything else from the storehouse.
• Huang Changyu invited Su Yi to choose three items, but Su Yi declined, saying he had only come to look around.

Wang Xiu discovered that painting with the brush Su Yi chose for him greatly strengthened his mental power, while humanity spent three years gaining ground against mutant beasts. Su Yi began teaching Star Arts to Xiao Wenyu and Xu Diandian as powerful cultivators from small worlds seemed poised to descend.

• Wang Xiu painted an ancient landscape under the brush’s guidance and found that his mental world had expanded dramatically.
• Humans used new cultivation methods and weapons to hunt mutant beasts, and over three years their bases grew stronger and more stable.
• Su Yi observed that humanity might reclaim Earth if it avoided provoking the strongest mutant beasts.
• Su Yi offered to teach Xiao Wenyu Star Arts, and Xu Diandian joined them to learn the technique.
• Su Yi explained that Star Arts used the stars to foresee events and attack, and considered letting Xiao Wenyu and Xu Diandian face the expected newcomers.

Su Yi taught Xu Diandian and Xiao Wenyu the basics of Star Numeration, then let Xu Diandian face Ye Ling, a chief god who had come to conquer Earth. After Ye Ling threatened Xu Diandian, she prepared to fight him.

• Su Yi explained how Star Numeration drew on the power and movements of distant stars, and Xu Diandian and Xiao Wenyu tried sensing the stars.
• Xiao Wenyu hurt himself attempting to draw on the moon's power, so Su Yi told him to observe the stars until his cultivation was stronger.
• Xu Diandian sensed the stars with the help of her magical bowl as Ye Ling appeared in the sky and scanned Earth.
• Ye Ling declared himself Great Emperor Yecang, found Xu Diandian to be the world's strongest cultivator, and offered to take her as his disciple.
• Xu Diandian refused Ye Ling's offer, and Su Yi told her to beat him up because he had come to cause trouble.
• Ye Ling laughed at Xu Diandian and unleashed his divine sense to destroy her.

• Su Yi told Xu Diandian to practice without Little Pagoda, and she put away the Green Duckweed Sword and Chaos Pearl before taking out the Ten Thousand Divine Lamps.

• Su Yi suggested that Xu Diandian and Ye Ling fight without weapons and restricted Ye Ling to the Eighth Heaven of the Heavenly Immortal realm.
• Ye Ling asked Xu Diandian to suppress her cultivation, while she mistakenly took him for a fool and demanded that he shrink to her height.

• Ye Ling overwhelmed Xu Diandian by interrupting her hand seals with a barrage of punches.
• Xu Diandian drew the Green Duckweed Sword, but Su Yi stopped her and ruled that she had lost for breaking their agreement.
• Su Yi reminded Xu Diandian to keep her word, and she admitted her mistake and returned to his side.
• Xiao Wenyu flew up to challenge Ye Ling after Su Yi promised to suppress their cultivation to the same level.
• Ye Ling knocked Xiao Wenyu down within half a minute, leaving him badly injured and barely breathing.

Ye Ling challenged Su Yi, but Sect Leader Tongtian appeared and forced him into a fight with Su Yi instead. As Su Yi prepared to face Ye Ling, his sudden movement left Ye Ling questioning what he was capable of.

• Ye Ling challenged Su Yi, and Sect Leader Tongtian appeared, revealing Xu Diandian was his disciple.
• Sect Leader Tongtian proposed that Ye Ling fight Su Yi, promising to let him leave alive if he won.
• Ye Ling accepted the challenge, chose his painted halberd, and agreed to fight without suppressing his cultivation.
• Su Yi borrowed a wooden sword from Xiao Yu and told Ye Ling to use everything he had.
• Su Yi appeared in front of Ye Ling so suddenly that Ye Ling wondered whether he had used the Law of Space or incredible speed.

Su Yi effortlessly defeated Ye Ling to demonstrate the gap in their strength, then turned his attention to Sect Leader Tongtian. The chapter ended with Tongtian facing a test of how much he had improved.

• Sect Leader Tongtian praised Ye Ling for daring to challenge Su Yi, and Su Yi told Ye Ling to attack.
• Ye Ling used his painted halberd, spells, and teleportation against Su Yi, but Su Yi dodged his attacks and trapped him with ice chains.
• Su Yi broke Ye Ling’s halberd with his wooden sword and killed him with a single strike.
• Xu Diandian and the base staff watched Su Yi’s victory on satellite screens, while Su Yi felt the fight had taught little because Ye Ling was too weak.
• Su Yi greeted the returning Sect Leader Tongtian, then pointed his wooden sword at him and demanded to see how much he had improved.

Su Yi took Sect Leader Tongtian to a desolate universe to test his new Hunyuan strength, while Tongtian’s senior brothers watched. Su Yi entered Tongtian’s Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation and began dismantling it properly, leaving Tongtian encouraged by the respect.

• Su Yi brought Sect Leader Tongtian to a desolate universe and told him to show how much his strength had improved.
• Primordial Heavenly Venerable and the Celestial Venerable of the Dao and Virtue arrived to watch as Tongtian summoned the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords and the formation diagram.
• The Four Immortal-Slaying Swords trembled with fear, but Tongtian threatened them until they formed a small world around Su Yi.
• Su Yi suppressed his cultivation to Tongtian’s level and endured the formation’s sword qi, praising Tongtian when his sword aura began to crack.
• Su Yi targeted the Immortal-Slaying Sword to unravel the formation corner by corner, and Tongtian grew excited that Su Yi was treating his formation with respect.

Su Yi effortlessly captured the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords and broke Sect Leader Tongtian’s formation, after which Tongtian asked to stay in the Origin World. Back in Spirit Wood Town, Su Yi agreed to accompany Huaxia’s planned expansion, while insisting he would not clear the dangers for them himself.

• Su Yi filled the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation with clones and captured all four swords, breaking the formation without destroying them.
• Sect Leader Tongtian returned the swords and asked to remain in the Origin World, but Su Yi told him to stay away; Primordial Heavenly Venerable and Celestial Venerable of the Dao and Virtue then departed.
• Xu Diandian rescued Xiao Wenyu and healed his injuries, and Su Yi reassured Xiao Wenyu that his poor performance came from a lack of combat experience.
• Huang Changyu told Su Yi that Huaxia planned to expand from Spirit Wood Town and invited him to join; Su Yi agreed, while making clear he would not defeat every mutated beast for them.

As Huaxia began its counteroffensive, Su Yi took his ten beast-taming students outside the base for training and foraging. He made the weak Liao Ruimao face an A-Rank Rosemary Snake, and Liao trapped it with his prepared equipment.

• Spirit Wood Town's gates opened as Huaxia's counteroffensive began, and Su Yi led his ten students beyond the base.
• Su Yi told the students they would have to fend for themselves and pointed out Qinan Grass, drawing their attention to the Rosemary Snake that guarded it.
• Su Yi ordered the students to leave the young A-Rank Rosemary Snake to Liao Ruimao, despite his low cultivation.
• Liao Ruimao advanced through the snake's poisonous mist, then caught it in a steel net fired from his gauntlet.
• Liao sprayed realgar powder over the trapped Rosemary Snake.

Su Yi remembered that he had neglected his wife Ye Xiaxuan for five years and discovered she was being hunted across the Immortal Realm. He went to find her, and Ye Xiaxuan recognized him and tearfully clung to him.

• Liao Ruimao sprinkled realgar on a lively rosemary snake, and Su Yi explained that the powder only disgusted it before making Liao deal with the snake himself.
• Su Yi remembered that he had not contacted Ye Xiaxuan in nearly five years and used his divine sense to find her hiding from immortals and demons.
• Su Yi realized he had ordered the Immortal Realm to hunt Ye Xiaxuan and arrange eighty-one tribulations, while the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor had captured Sun Wukong and the others.
• Su Yi told Li Youyou to watch over the students and teleported from Earth to Lin Yuan City in the Immortal Realm.
• Su Yi called out to Ye Xiaxuan in disguise, and she recognized him, threw herself into his arms, and cried that she thought he no longer wanted her.

Su Yi reunited with Ye Xiaxuan, ended her training, and promised they would travel west together to rescue Sun Wukong and the others. After he canceled the hunt for Ye Xiaxuan across the Immortal Realm, the two set off while she clung to him.

• Su Yi told Ye Xiaxuan that her training was over and proposed they journey west together as a honeymoon.
• Ye Xiaxuan explained that a yellow wind had carried off Sun Wukong and the others, and Su Yi said he would help rescue them.
• Su Yi revealed that Sun Wukong and the others were staying comfortably with the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor.
• When a middle-aged Daoist attacked them, Su Yi deflected his giant sword and announced that the mission to arrest Ye Xiaxuan was over.
• The Jade Emperor, the remaining eleven palaces' Immortal Emperors, and the demon kings ordered their followers to stop pursuing Ye Xiaxuan.
• Su Yi prepared to take Ye Xiaxuan to find the others, but she refused to get down from his arms.

Su Yi rescued Ye Xiaxuan from the immortals, demons, and fiends hunting her, then took her to the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor’s palace. There, he found Sun Wukong and the others treated more like guests than prisoners, and they learned the hunt had been called off.

• Jin Liangchen challenged Su Yi and demanded that he hand over Ye Xiaxuan, believing Su Yi was an impostor.
• Su Yi stopped Jin Liangchen’s saber and sent him flying tens of thousands of li without killing him.
• Su Yi carried Ye Xiaxuan to the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor’s palace, where Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng, and the others were staying.
• The Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor told Sun Wukong and the others that Su Yi had ordered the hunt for Ye Xiaxuan to stop and that they could soon return.
• Sun Wukong and the others remained loosely tied with ordinary hemp rope, unsealed and well fed, while the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor assured them they were being cared for.

Ye Xiaxuan reunited with Su Yi and learned that Sun Wukong and the others were not suffering, but enjoying a feast at the Black Water Mystic Nether Great Emperor’s palace.
