• Black Dragon and Zhu Qingtian abandoned their plan to let Lin Jun go after learning his identity and decided to capture him.

Zhu Qingtian and Black Dragon captured Lin Jun, and Zhu Qingtian possessed his body to infiltrate the Pill Azure Sect. The formation then connected the two realms, and Lu Qing'an prepared to cross over.

• Luo Danhong and Cang Ru confirmed the connection, and Lu Qing'an said it was time to cross over.

Lu Qing'an and Cang Ru arrived on Pill Cloud Continent after their realms were connected, while Black Dragon and Zhu Qingtian headed to the Pill Azure Sect to carry out their task. The continent's Heavenly Dao confronted Cang Ru over the unauthorized array and her choice of master, but Lu Qing'an shielded Cang Ru and offered the Heavenly Dao two choices.

• Lu Qing'an arrived on Pill Cloud Continent with Cang Ru, heard Black Dragon's report, and sent Black Dragon and Zhu Qingtian to the Pill Azure Sect.

• The Heavenly Dao blamed Cang Ru for connecting the realms without permission and unleashed her Creation Realm pressure, but Lu Qing'an dispelled it and offered her a choice between talking and being convinced by virtue.

After revealing his Middle Creation Realm cultivation and threatening to fight, he let Cang Ru explain that he had made the connection to help his child return home after gaining experience, leaving the Heavenly Dao baffled.

• Lu Qing'an rose to face her, while Cang Ru followed and marveled at his sudden increase in cultivation.
• Cang Ru explained that Lu Qing'an had connected the continents to make it easier for his child to return home after gaining experience, leaving the Heavenly Dao incredulous.

• Luo Juan arrived and demanded that Lin Shuai answer for taking what belonged to her, but Lin Shuai remained motionless.
• Zhu Qingtian promised Luo Juan twice the benefits she was owed, convincing her to leave.

• Lu Qing'an received Black Dragon’s report and considered how to send the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent away without raising suspicion.

Lu Qing'an negotiated with the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent, offering her Early-to-Middle Creation Realm cultivation in exchange for Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones. She agreed to provide fifty immediately and gather fifty more within three days, leaving Lu Qing'an poised to transfer the cultivation.

• Lu Qing'an proposed trading Creation Realm cultivation for Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones, and the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent agreed to consider the deal if he transferred it into her World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar first.
• Lu Qing'an and the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent haggled over the number of stones, and she revealed she could produce fifty at once.
• Lu Qing'an demanded a hundred stones, arguing that she should gather all she could rather than hold any back.
• The Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent agreed to give Lu Qing'an the fifty stones immediately after he transferred the cultivation and to find the other fifty within three days.

Lu Qing'an arranged to transfer his cultivation to the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent that night while Black Dragon and Zhu Qingtian worked to gather the Pill Azure Sect's higher-ups. Zhu Qingtian lured sect master Long Yunyi with a fabricated claim about a vast source of Dao Source Power, leaving Black Dragon worried as Long Yunyi prepared to examine him.

• Zhu Qingtian used Lin Shuai's identity to summon sect master Long Yunyi to Carefree Peak, where Long Yunyi arrived through a void passage.
• Zhu Qingtian claimed that his disciple possessed Dao Source Power from a nearby place containing enough for the sect's higher-ups.
• Long Yunyi grew excited and asked whether Zhu Qingtian was certain, while Black Dragon realized that Zhu Qingtian was taking the opportunity to target him.

Long Yunyi examined Black Dragon and, convinced Zhu Qingtian’s discovery could transform the Pill Azure Sect, summoned its elders and grand elders to discuss it. Meanwhile, Lu Qing'an transferred cultivation into a World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar, then bluffed the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent into believing he was at the Eternal Realm and demanded Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones.

• Long Yunyi examined Black Dragon, whose anguished howls lasted for a quarter of an hour, and confirmed Zhu Qingtian’s claim.
• Long Yunyi summoned every elder and grand elder, while Zhu Qingtian urged him to keep their discovery secret and hinted that he wanted a grand elder position.
• Black Dragon sent Lu Qing'an a voice transmission, and Lu Qing'an set off with the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent to a World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar, leaving Cang Ru behind.
• Lu Qing'an transferred the promised cultivation into the pillar, dropping from the Middle Creation Realm to the Early Creation Realm.
• Lu Qing'an claimed that his cultivation contained Power of the Dao Source because he was at the Eternal Realm, then gave the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent one day to provide Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones, beginning with fifty.

Lu Qing'an convinced the Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent that he might be an expert above the Sovereign Realm, then sent her off to gather the remaining Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones. Meanwhile, Long Yunyi assembled the Pill Azure Sect elders, while Zhu Qingtian kept Luo Juan in suspense about an enormous benefit.

• The Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent returned Lu Qing'an to the stone pavilion and, shaken by the cultivation he had shared, agreed to bring him fifty more Heavenly Mandate Soul Stones.
• Lu Qing'an accepted the first fifty stones, let the Heavenly Dao leave, and told Cang Ru to keep watch before departing.
• The Heavenly Dao examined Lu Qing'an's gift and feared he might truly be in the Sovereign or Eternal Realm, then set out to buy the remaining stones.

• Long Yunyi told the assembled elders to wait for an announcement and sent messages to the missing supreme elders.
• Luo Juan demanded to know why she had been summoned, but Zhu Qingtian refused to explain the promised benefit, leaving her irritated.

Zhu Qingtian and Black Dragon rushed the Pill Azure Sect’s grand elders to assemble before Lu Qing'an lost patience. When the elders arrived, one seized Zhu Qingtian, but Lu Qing'an appeared and corrected the elder when he mistook Zhu Qingtian’s call of “Master” for an appeal to him.

• Zhu Qingtian urged Long Yunyi to force the three grand elders to the hall, warning that their opportunity could disappear if they delayed.

• The black-robed elder turned pale when Lu Qing'an said Zhu Qingtian had been calling him, not the elder.

• The Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent revealed that a Peak Sovereign Realm powerhouse had promised to form a contract with her if he reached the Eternal Realm, making Lu Qing'an suspect he had a rival.

He then brought his four children to Pill Cloud Continent, where he let them explore together while keeping a safeguard ready in case of danger.

• The Heavenly Dao of Pill Cloud Continent explained why a Sovereign Realm expert could not easily contract with another continent's Heavenly Dao and tested Lu Qing'an's origins.

As the assessment exposed strict selection standards, a five-year-old girl stunned the crowd with her cultivation, Emperor Position, and combat strength.

• Bai Jingjing explained the assessment’s age and cultivation requirements, Emperor Position test, and combat strength test, and said she hoped to join the Yin Realm Academy.
