Chapter Summaries

Ling Qingzhu and the others discovered that the Ancient Tomb Mansion’s seal had been broken by Fang Yi, the Dao Sect’s young sect master, and a powerful Death Profound Realm protector punished Wang Yan for insulting him. After learning Fang Yi had taken the Nirvana Heart, Ling Qingzhu headed to Yan City to confront him.

• Wang Yan angrily attacked the woods after finding the Ancient Tomb Mansion’s stone gate already broken, while Master Mu told Lin Langtian that a Seven Yuan Nirvana expert must have opened it.
• Ling Qingzhu arrived and said the person who broke the seal was from the Dao Sect, then recognized the Five Emperor Great Demon Seal on the gate.
• Wang Yan mocked the Dao Sect’s young genius, and an unseen Death Profound Realm expert killed him and threatened to destroy the Wang Family and, if necessary, the Great Yan Dynasty.

• Ling Qingzhu identified Fang Yi as the Dao Sect’s young sect master, known as the Five Emperor Great Demon Venerable, and left for Yan City.

After Ling Qingzhu left, Lin Langtian and Qin Shi turned on the Wang Family, while Lin Dong reflected on the immense gap between himself and powerful experts. In Yan City, Fang Yi examined a trap in a Nirvana Heart and recalled how his choices of three had shaped his extraordinary cultivation; his newest choices appeared as the chapter ended.

• Lin Langtian killed Wang Pan, and Lin Langtian and Qin Shi ordered their families to attack the Wang Family after learning Wang Yan had died to a Death Profound Realm Dao protector.

• Fang Yi reached the Yuan Dan Realm at twelve and received three new choices: the Thunder Emperor Precious Technique, the Willow Deity Precious Technique, and the Phoenix Precious Technique.

Fang Yi explained his cultivation choices and told Gu Mo he would avenge Zhou Tong before bargaining with Ling Qingzhu over a Nirvana Heart. He left Ling Qingzhu facing a choice between accepting his demand to place a Five Emperor Great Demon Seal on her lower abdomen or risking the heart’s power being diminished.

• Fang Yi offered to help Ling Qingzhu on the condition that he brand a Five Emperor Great Demon Seal on her lower abdomen, and she angrily refused.

After sending Ling Qingzhu away, Fang Yi explained his hot-and-cold approach to Gu Mo and traveled to Great Puppet City in search of the meditation cushion containing the Ancient Qiankun Formation. He asked Mu Qianqian to find the cushion and some red-and-black ornaments, leaving her to carry out his requests.

• Fang Yi dismissed Ling Qingzhu after her breakthrough, and she left while asking whether he would attend next year's sect exchange.

Fang Yi failed to find the Ancient Qiankun Formation in Great Puppet City, imparted the Heart Demon Scripture to Mu Qianqian, and then went to Eagle Martial Hall to take Jiang Yinyin to the Dao Sect. He revealed to Jiang Lei that Jiang Yinyin was the reincarnation of the Lord of Life and Death, leaving Jiang Lei stunned.

Fang Yi received the Black-Eyed Elder’s insights into the Devouring Ancestral Symbol and used them to create the Great Five Elements Spacetime Collapse. He left the elder’s world intending to return and help fight the Yimo, while suspecting the Plane Embryo was manipulating events to raise a native Heavenly Sovereign.

Ying Xuanzi entrusted the matters surrounding Jiang Yinyin to himself and gave Fang Yi a jade slip containing the Second Origin Art.

• Ying Xuanzi promised Fang Yi that he would not let the Yuan Sect harm him again, then accepted Jiang Yinyin as his disciple and assigned Ying Huanhuan to arrange her stay.
