Chapter Summaries

The elders of Short Sky Island fought the Great Emperors to prevent them from reaching the inheritance, and several elders revealed powerful techniques. As eight Great Emperors pressed toward the last three elders, the deaf elder began painting in the starry sky and conjured a mirror.

• The blind elder summoned a silver spear and drew two Great Emperors into battle.
• The one-armed old man and Old Madam Huang teamed up against a Great Emperor, while the maimed saber elder challenged two more.
• The old man with broken fingers struck a Great Emperor with his flaming creation hammer, sending him into the starry sky and destroying a small world with the attack's aftershock.
• Eight Great Emperors advanced on Short Sky Island's remaining three elders and demanded that they clear the way to the inheritance.
• The deaf elder painted with a brush of starlight, then tapped it and made a mirror appear across the starry sky as a Great Emperor approached.

The Deaf Elder used a star-chart painting to trap eight Great Emperors in a rift, then departed as the Village Chief and Herb Elder prepared to face the rest. The Herb Elder opened his basket and released a horde of strange creatures to fight.

• The Deaf Elder created eight faceless phantoms that matched the techniques and strength of the eight Great Emperors.

• The Herb Elder stepped forward, opened his herb basket, and released a scarlet spider, a seven-colored snake, a patterned centipede, an ice-blue toad, and other creatures.

Herb Elder unleashed dozens of Great Emperor-level demonic beasts against the remaining Great Emperors. Their poison overwhelmed Great Emperor Tingyin, whose death left the cultivators facing Herb Elder in fear.

• Herb Elder released dozens of Great Emperor-level demonic beasts from his herb basket and ordered them to attack.
• The Great Emperors underestimated the Early-stage beasts and moved to fight them, while Great Emperor Tingyin struck at a seven-colored serpent.
• The serpent's mist dissolved Great Emperor Tingyin's spiritual attack, and a scarlet spider bound him with poisonous silk.
• Great Emperor Tingyin's spiritual power, senses, and body slowed as the mist enveloped him.
• The seven-colored mist corroded Great Emperor Tingyin and the surrounding space, leaving a black hole before the Mortal Star Domain's spatial force closed it.

Nine beats of the Heavenly Drum announced that Great Emperor Tingyin of the Sound-Listening Clan had fallen, and the Great Emperors fought the Herb Elder’s demonic beasts. The battle stalled as both sides held back, while the elders of Short Sky Island tried to buy three days for Chen Xiaoxian to complete his breakthrough.

• The Heavenly Drum sounded nine times across the Mortal Star Domain, revealing that Great Emperor Tingyin had died, and cultivators knelt toward the vanished black hole.
• The remaining Great Emperors attacked the Herb Elder and his demonic beasts, but poison and the beasts’ coordination kept them from capturing him.
• The village chief of Short Sky Island said it was his turn to act, but he stayed still as the fighters watched one another.
• Lin Yu recognized that the Short Sky Island elders were stalling until Chen Xiaoxian completed his breakthrough and were burning their life essence to hold off the Great Emperors.
• The Great Emperors held back to conceal their trump cards and avoid danger, while several powerful Great Emperors remained hidden in the void and waited.

The eight elders of Short Sky Island burned their life essence to hold back thirty-six Great Emperor powerhouses near the land of inheritance. After two days of battle, the Deaf Elder had died and the elders’ defenses began to collapse as the Great Emperors broke free.

After Deaf Elder was left with only remnant consciousness, Chen Xuanjian refused to abandon Short Sky Island’s elders, though he promised to send the young master away at the last moment. As dozens of powerful Great Emperors advanced, Chen Xuanjian confronted two attackers with his Vast Sword Intent.

• The village chief saved a wisp of Deaf Elder’s remnant consciousness after the eight Great Emperors shattered his body, while Short Sky Island’s other elders remained gravely injured.
• Herb Elder and Xu Changhao urged the village chief to take the young master away, but Chen Xuanjian chose to stay with his longtime companions and promised to send the young master away when the final moment came.
• The Voidbright Clan’s Great Emperor called for the battle to end, and dozens of Late-stage Great Emperors stepped forward, including Great Emperor Youming, whom Lin Yu recognized.
• Several Great Emperors headed toward the inheritance site, but Chen Xuanjian rose into the air and formed a golden sword of light to bar their way.
• Two Great Emperors attacked Chen Xuanjian at once, and he answered with the Suspended Sword Dao Art, Vast Sword Intent.

Chen Xuanjian unleashed a sword strike he had accumulated for a thousand years, killing several Great Emperors and badly injuring many others. After collecting the fallen Great Emperors’ remains for Lin Baigu, Lin Yu turned his attention back to the inheritance ground.

• Chen Xuanjian summoned his sword diagram and struck the Great Emperors with a torrent of sword light infused with Heavenly Dao power.
• Ten Great Emperors escaped through the void, while Chen Xuanjian’s strike hit the Great Emperors waiting behind them, killing eight early-stage Great Emperors and gravely injuring many survivors.
• Chen Xuanjian spat blood and weakened after the attack, while he and the elders of Short Sky Island laughed over their victory as the Heavenly Drum continued to sound.
• Lin Yu retrieved the fallen Great Emperors’ remains, stored them in the Primordial Platform, and ordered Lin Baigu to absorb them before looking back toward the inheritance ground.

Lin Yu decided to claim the land of inheritance in the Primordial Hall's name, reasoning that strength determined who could take it. He used the Primordial Compass to suppress everyone at the site, then summoned a cyan lotus above them.

• Lin Yu saw through the Hongmeng System that the land of inheritance was a vast cemetery filled with countless remains and considered using them to strengthen Lin Baigu.
• Lin Yu decided that the Primordial Hall could seize the inheritance openly because his strength surpassed the assembled Great Emperor experts.
• Lin Yu activated the Primordial Compass, whose image spread over the land of inheritance and marked the living beings below.
• The compass's golden ripples immobilized the cultivators and stopped their spiritual power from responding; Great Emperor Youming remained calm because he recognized the effect.
• The crippled elder of Short Sky Island suspected that Lin Yu had reached the Imperial Lord level, and Lin Yu summoned a cyan lotus at the center of the compass.

Lin Yu claimed the Imperial Lord's inheritance and used the green lotus to send every cultivator in the Mortal Star Domain back to their home worlds. The display of his overwhelming power boosted the Primordial Hall's Fame Points past five billion.

• Lin Yu took the inheritance ground with a green lotus and assured the Short Sky Island elders that he would not harm Chen Xiaoxian.
• Lin Yu declared that he had claimed the inheritance and challenged anyone who objected to find him.
• Lin Yu used the lotus's green light to teleport every cultivator, including the Great Emperors, back to their home worlds.
• Lin Yu placed the inheritance ground on the Primordial Platform and sent Chen Xiaoxian and the inheritance back with the Short Sky Island elders.
• Lin Yu received a surge of Fame Points and concluded that demonstrating strength complemented publishing rankings.

Lin Yu used the Primordial Platform to uncover remains and compress the land of inheritance into origin power, then completed the forging of a black-flame relic. The relic became the Primordial Star Map, which could reveal distant worlds and let the Primordial Hall jump between them, while also providing a growing formation for the hall.

• Lin Yu decided to wait before releasing another ranking list so the Primordial Hall could gain more Fame Points from it.
• Lin Yu activated treasure-digging mode on the Primordial Platform, gathered the land of inheritance's remains, and had Lin Baigu absorb them.
• Lin Yu compressed the land of inheritance into a basketball-sized object of origin power and used it to finish forging the item in the black flame.
• After half a month, the black flame produced a scroll that Lin Yu identified as the Primordial Star Map.
• Lin Yu learned that the map could reveal worlds and enable the Primordial Hall to jump between them, and that it contained the upgradeable Primordial Star Formation.
• Lin Yu saw that the formation could improve the Primordial Hall's defenses and movement, but still felt it lacked power.

Lin Yu generated the Special Physique Rankings across four star domains and considered how releasing them would affect cultivators. The rankings revealed powerful physiques and their owners, and Lin Yu became interested in Lin Bufan's physique because it resembled the Aurora Race's.

• Lin Yu decided to expand the Primordial Hall's reach and asked the system to rank the top hundred special physiques across four star domains.
• The rankings named Xu Tianyue's Immortal Heaven Physique first, Ling Hanshuang's Heaven-Devouring Physique second, and Su Xiaoran's Yellow Ancestor Physique third.
• Lin Yu noticed that Lame Elder's Ruyi Physique ranked twenty-ninth and connected it to the fierce blow the elder had struck.
• Lin Yu reflected that revealing the rankings could spark bloodshed and noted that Short Sky Island's elders showed how special physiques helped cultivators challenge stronger opponents.
• Lin Yu saw Lin Bufan's Primordial Wilderness Physique ranked one hundredth and noted its similarities to the Aurora Race's restricted physique.

The lists caused widespread shock and unrest, while cultivators in the other domains began questioning the Primordial Hall’s origins and knowledge.

• Lin Yu noticed that Lin Bufan ranked one hundredth despite his crippled Primordial Wilderness Physique, and recognized the physique’s remarkable potential.
• Lin Yu instructed the system to publish the Special Physique Rankings in the Mortal, Wind and Cloud, Big Dipper, and Southern Heaven Star Domains.

• Many cultivators suffered shaken Dao hearts and disrupted cultivation, while people in the Wind and Cloud Star Domain debated the Primordial Hall’s identity and reach.

The Primordial Rankings revealed that Xu Tianyue of the Southern Heaven Star Domain possessed an innate physique that could eventually make her an Imperial Lord, prompting the region’s major forces to launch an urgent search for her. Meanwhile, cultivators in the Mortal Star Domain resented the rankings for including three other star domains and sharing the benefits they had assumed belonged to them.

• The Primordial Rankings appeared across four star domains, startling cultivators who had never heard of the Primordial Hall.
• The Special Physique Rankings named Xu Tianyue of the Southern Heaven Star Domain and said her innate physique could lead her to the Imperial Lord realm.

• Cultivators in the Mortal Star Domain saw the other three star domains on the rankings and resented having to share the benefits and ranking places.

The Special Physique Rankings stirred resentment and alarm among Mortal Star Domain cultivators, who began searching for talented cultivators while blaming the competition from other star domains. As the rankings brought the Primordial Hall ten billion Fame Points, Lin Yu upgraded it to level five and received new rewards and abilities.

• Mortal Star Domain cultivators complained that contenders from the Wind and Cloud Star Domain, the Big Dipper Star Domain, and the Southern Heaven Star Domain had taken places on the Special Physique Rankings.
• Mortal Star Domain factions began searching for cultivators with special physiques, while the star domain grew tense over the competition.
• Lin Yu watched the Primordial Hall's Fame Points reach ten billion, raising its fame to level five, Fame Shakes the Star Domains.

• Lin Yu unlocked cross-star-domain delivery for the Primordial Rankings and received three emperor-level spiritual medicines.

Lin Yu’s upgrade propelled him to the Early Great Emperor Realm and created three powerful spirit pills, while Hongmeng Mountain and its Primordial Guards grew stronger. He looked ahead to a future upgrade that could raise more than two thousand guards to the Great Emperor level.

• Lin Yu’s cultivation surged to the Early Great Emperor Realm as the Primordial Star Grand Array blocked the pressure of his breakthrough.

• Lin Yu anticipated that a future upgrade could raise the guards to Great Emperor level and make the Primordial Hall a transcendent force across the star domains.

Lin Yu unlocked Star Domain Teleportation for everyone listed on the Primordial Rankings and announced the new function across four star domains. In the Southern Heaven Star Domain, the announcement reached a small city where a frightened girl stood against overwhelming spiritual pressure.

• The Primordial Hall upgrade raised the cultivation of Lin Yu's created beings; Little Purple advanced to the middle stage of the Imperial Lord realm, and Lin Baigu reached its peak middle stage.
• Lin Yu discovered that the Primordial Rankings now offered safe teleportation to any ranked world across the Mortal, Wind and Cloud, Big Dipper, and Southern Heaven Star Domains.
• Lin Yu granted access to Star Domain Teleportation and announced the function to everyone listed on the rankings in all four star domains.
• In a small city in the Southern Heaven Star Domain, a powerful cultivator's spiritual pressure forced the people to kneel, but a dirt-streaked girl remained standing as faint Great Dao Qi shielded her.
• Several aged elders stood beside the girl with hostile expressions, and some prepared to strike.

The Southern Heaven Holy Maiden and Old Daoist Xuantian argued over who would take the little girl as a disciple and prepared to fight for her. The Primordial Rankings offered the girl starry sky teleportation, and she escaped their grasp by vanishing in a beam of white light.

• The Southern Heaven Holy Maiden and Old Daoist Xuantian disputed who had the right to take the little girl, and each insisted on claiming her as a disciple.
• The Southern Heaven Holy Maiden and Old Daoist Xuantian agreed to settle the dispute with a fight outside the small world.

• The Southern Heaven Holy Maiden and Old Daoist Xuantian tried to seize the little girl but could not touch her before she disappeared.

A frightened girl arrived in the Primordial Hall and met Little Purple, whose enormous dragon form terrified her until Lin Yu intervened. After Lin Yu introduced himself as the hall’s master, the girl asked to become his disciple so she could grow strong enough to stop living in fear.

• The girl appeared in the void before Little Purple in his enormous dragon form and was terrified.
• The girl tried to reassure herself and gained a purplish-red hue in her eyes.

Lin Yu learned about Xu Ziyue’s endless cycle of lost memories, her Immortal Heaven Physique, and the second soul, Xu Hongyue, who protected her. After Xu Ziyue asked him to take her as his master, Lin Yu agreed, and she eagerly hoped to grow strong under his guidance.

• Lin Yu discovered that Xu Ziyue had lived for over ten thousand years, remained sixteen, and lost her memories every sixteen years.
• Lin Yu learned that Xu Ziyue was the current incarnation of Xu Tianyue and possessed the Immortal Heaven Physique, though he could not fully investigate her because his authority was insufficient.
