• Ling Yi reviewed his attributes and concluded that his current special effects might not protect him against immortal cultivators’ techniques.

• Ling Yi checked Tianyun Video’s backend and reflected that his colleagues were going about their routines, unaware that everything would change when the Teleport Gate opened.

• Ling Yi realized the upcoming arena tournament could earn him a Teleport Gate spot and Fanbao Points by defeating opponents.

• Ling Yi learned Liu Manyun planned to merge Heavenly Fortune Video into Infinite Technology and leave its management to Li Shuang before departing Blue Star.
• Fanbao explained that Ling Yi could either buy immortal cultivation and Spirit Body special effects or use biological energy to open his storage ring once; Ling Yi chose the special effects.

• Fanbao awarded Ling Yi points after A Qing defeated Zhang Huai and Bai Yuliang, whom Ling Yi had sent out to knock out immortal cultivators each day.
• With four days remaining before the Immortal Ascension Assembly, Ling Yi hoped to earn enough points to buy Teleportation, then went to sleep.

Ling Yi and Liu Manyun prepared to leave Blue Star for Tianyuan Star, where the Immortal Ascension Assembly would begin. At the Drifting Cloud Taoist Temple, Master Piaoyun explained that Tianyuan Star retained an ancient way of life and began addressing the gathered cultivators.

• Ling Yi spent his Fanbao Points on the Teleportation Special Effect and reviewed the supplies and weapons he and Liu Manyun had collected.

• Ling Yi used Fanbao to learn that Master Piaoyun had appeared across Blue Star’s history, possessed power beyond her cultivation realm, and had influenced the rise and fall of dynasties.
• Piaoyun announced that the Teleport Gate’s next opening would exhaust Blue Star’s Spiritual Power, prompting the gathering to panic and call for the gate’s destruction.
• Piaoyun explained that Blue Star’s Spiritual Power would dissipate within ten years even if the gate stayed closed, and that she had used the gate to send gifted cultivators away in search of a way to restore it.
• Piaoyun announced that she would personally choose who could pass through the gate instead of letting arena results decide, and the gathering accepted her decision without protest.
• Piaoyun called Liu Manyun and eight others to fill the nine places, warned Liu Manyun not to call her Master after leaving Blue Star, and did not select Ling Yi.

Ling Yi activated Second Tier Combat Mode and challenged Piaoyun over access to the Teleport Gate, while A Qing repeatedly knocked out the chosen cultivators to farm Fanbao Points. Piaoyun revived them, then sealed the space and immobilized A Qing, leaving Ling Yi to consider buying a Domain effect to counter her power.

• Piaoyun refused to choose Ling Yi for the Teleport Gate, and Ling Yi activated Second Tier Combat Mode after Fanbao detected her unusual strength and vast Karmic Luck Origin.
• Piaoyun revealed her Lady White Snake appearance and offered to send Ling Yi away after he kept her company on Blue Star for a hundred years.
• Ling Yi ordered A Qing to attack Piaoyun and the eight chosen cultivators; Piaoyun healed herself and revived the unconscious cultivators with golden light.
• Ling Yi realized A Qing could knock out the revived cultivators repeatedly to earn Fanbao Points and told her to attack again.
• Piaoyun sealed the surrounding space, freezing A Qing, and Fanbao advised Ling Yi to exchange points for a Domain effect to break the restraint.

Ling Yi activated a domain that disrupted the Ethereal Peak’s teleport array, then defeated Piaoyun and left the newbie village with Liu Manyun and the other cultivators. After Ling Yi, Yin Wanqing, Uncle, and Ling Mengmeng appeared above the peak, Ling Yi chose to reset the world instead of cutting it.

• Ling Yi bought and activated the Domain Special Effect, which suppressed everyone else’s special effects within its range and caused the Ethereal Peak to shake.

• Ling Yi, Yin Wanqing, Uncle, and the newly awakened Ling Mengmeng appeared above the Ethereal Peak, and Ling Yi reset the world.

After seeing cultivators fly over Red Maple Town, Ling Yi resolved to find a way into cultivation, only for his long-awaited Fan Summon System to activate without explaining how it worked. He began considering how to become famous and gain fans, while his immense wealth and network already gave him control over Beiye Commandery.

• Ling Yi realized that the Sun and Moon Empire was a cultivation world after witnessing cultivators flying on swords, and he sent a Shadow Guard to investigate them.
• Ling Yi reflected on how he had used modern inventions, armed forces, and spies to amass great wealth and protect himself, but doubted his forces could challenge cultivators.
• The Fan Summon System activated, displayed Ling Yi's name and a fan count of zero, and gave no response when he asked how it worked.
• Ling Yi concluded that he needed fans to summon them and considered using newspapers to become famous, but noted that papermaking and printing did not exist in the world.
• Ling Yi recalled that his carrier pigeons and Shadow Guards had helped him avert crises and replace officials, leaving him more influential than the emperor in Beiye Commandery.

Ling Yi discovered that his Fan Summon System counted his subordinates as fans, but summoning failed until he chose a tier he could afford with his two fans. He successfully summoned a Human First Tier fan, though the new arrival had not yet appeared.

• Ling Yi gave Old Liu a booklet detailing papermaking, movable-type printing, and a newspaper plan to put into practice.
• The system gained its first fan, and Ling Yi tried to summon an Earth Ninth Tier fan but was told the conditions were not met.
• Shadow Two arrived, increasing Ling Yi’s fan count to two, but his attempts to summon higher- and lower-tier fans still failed.
• Ling Yi realized his limited number of fans was the restriction and successfully summoned a Human First Tier fan for one tael of silver.

Ling Yi learned how the Fan Summon System worked from Super Bored Person, an Earth player summoned as his fan. Super Bored Person ended the conversation by refusing to reveal whose fan he was, warning that the system would permanently ban him if he did.

• Super Bored Person appeared before Ling Yi and explained that he was an Earth player summoned as Ling Yi’s cheat.
• Super Bored Person described his Infinite Passive Cultivation Aura, which doubled his cultivation speed for every person cultivating within a thousand meters, and said his Human First Tier rank gave him a Low-Grade Spiritual Root.

• Super Bored Person told Ling Yi that fans transmigrated in their dreams from midnight to six each night, spending a day in this world, and remained idle here when they returned to Earth.
• Ling Yi asked whose fan Super Bored Person was, but Super Bored Person refused to say and urged him to guess.

Ling Yi and Super Bored Person discussed the newly discovered immortal cultivation world, and Ling Yi gave him a token to explore while secretly arranging to monitor him. Ling Yi then inspected his summoning system and found that he could summon a Human Second Tier fan.

• Ling Yi and Super Bored Person ate ancient dishes in Red Maple Town and discussed how unexpectedly delicious the food was.
• Ling Yi explained that he was investigating the immortal cultivators they had seen and believed they rarely appeared among ordinary people.
• Ling Yi gave Super Bored Person an elder's token from the Blue Star Trading Company and told him to explore while they waited for news.
• After Super Bored Person left, Ling Yi ordered a middle-aged subordinate to follow him and record his actions and what happened to him.
• Ling Yi checked the Fan Summon System, saw that his fan count had risen to 105, and failed to summon a Mortal First Tier fan.
• Ling Yi tried to summon a Human Second Tier fan, and the system confirmed that the conditions were met.

Ling Yi learned that the Heavenly Sword Sect would hold an Immortal Affinity Assembly in seven days and decided to travel to North Ye Cheng. He summoned 100 Human Second Tier fans, whose noisy arrival left him warning them to quiet down or risk permanent bans.

• Ling Yi finished writing Three Kingdoms and handed it to Shen Liu to prepare for publication in the newspaper.
• Ying Yi returned with news that the Heavenly Sword Sect would hold an Immortal Affinity Assembly across the Sun and Moon Empire, testing people for Spiritual Roots with the Immortal Affinity Stone.
• Ling Yi ordered Shadow Two to retrieve Bored and told Old Liu to prepare supplies for a journey to North Ye Cheng the next day.
• Ling Yi spent 200 taels of silver to summon 100 Human Second Tier fans, who appeared in his courtyard and began shouting and arguing.
• Ling Yi threatened to permanently ban the summoned fans unless they quieted down.

Ling Yi traveled north toward North Ye Cheng with Super Bored Person and a caravan, while explaining his forces, the road network, and the limits on armed guards. He learned how summoned fans could return after death and how much it would cost to summon them to his side.

• Ling Yi explained that his special operations teams had secured Beiye Commandery and that his five hundred publicly registered escort guards carried disguised submachine guns.
• Ling Yi told Super Bored Person that the concrete roads only covered Great Wind City's territory and that they would separate after leaving the city to avoid drawing attention.
• Ling Yi explained why the caravan traveled by ox cart, since oxen had better endurance and horses were restricted strategic resources.
• Super Bored Person told Ling Yi that summoned fans could return at their death location, at a chosen coordinate anchor, or at Ling Yi's side for a summoning cost.
• Super Bored Person said that resurrecting beside Ling Yi would cost one tael of silver and would happen instantly.

Ling Yi brought the summoned fans to Great Wind City, where they rested after the arduous journey. As they prepared to split up, Leisurely Genius revealed that Big Persimmon 733542 could detect nearby unclaimed opportunities, prompting the fans to ask to travel with her instead of going to North Ye Cheng.

• Ling Yi and Super Bored Person agreed that finding a storage ring was a priority, while Ling Yi cautioned against taking reckless risks.
• Ling Yi's summoned fans arrived in Great Wind City after traveling through the night, then rested in a large residence until they recovered.
• Ling Yi told the fans they could travel separately to North Ye Cheng for the Immortal Affinity Assembly, and Leisurely Genius asked whether they had to go.
• Leisurely Genius explained that Big Persimmon 733542's aura detected unclaimed fortuitous opportunities within a hundred li.
• The fans crowded around Big Persimmon 733542 and asked to join her, until Leisurely Genius silenced them.
