Chu Feng trained Xiao Chen to restore his cultivation and master the Sword Dao, and Xiao Chen won the outer institute tournament while refusing offers to leave his master. After Xiao Chen and Liu Yue'er departed to cultivate, Cao Youqian went to Dao-Seeking City and learned that Cao Youde had cut him off from Pill Dao Institute resources.
Chu Feng guided Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian through major breakthroughs while Xiao Chen and Liu Yue'er returned to Great Liang and reunited with Xiao Chen’s mother. Chu Feng then traveled to Dao-Seeking City to recruit a disciple and became involved in the rivalry between Kuang Sandao and Ling Zitong.
Chu Feng took Qin Qin and Wang Baole as disciples and guided them toward paths suited to their abilities, while Cao Youqian defeated Lin Ping'an and left to temper his Fist Intent. The arc ended with Qin Qin confronting pursuers from the Great Evolution Holy Land, whose tracking mark had led them to her.
Chu Feng guided his disciples through breakthroughs, new techniques, and Xiao Chen’s duel with Qin Rou while Elder Bing stayed at the institute to learn his methods. The arc ended with Wang Baole awakening the Taotie Physique and Chu Feng taking Daqian to hunt for food.
Wang Baole and Chu Feng’s other disciples competed in the academy grand tournament, while the Miscellaneous Dao Institute gained new disciples under Chu Feng. Six months later, Chu Feng and his students left for the Great Void Secret Realm, where the expedition arrived after a three-month voyage.
Chu Feng’s disciples entered the Great Void Secret Realm, where Xiao Chen, Cao Youqian, Qin Qin, and Wang Baole each gained strength and clashed with rival cultivators. After the Dao-Seeking Academy nearly wiped out the Great Evolution Holy Land’s forces, Chu Feng killed Diwu Qingyun and returned to face the Mountain-Moving Marquis’s questions.
Chu Feng expanded the Miscellaneous Dao Institute and helped his disciples advance, while Wang Baole resolved his family troubles and Cao Youqian and Ye Beixuan pursued opportunities beyond the academy. The stretch ended with Xu Caichen breaking through and Ye Beixuan accepting Yan Xu’s challenge for the approaching Outer Sect Grand Competition.
Chu Feng’s disciples advanced in cultivation, welcomed Han Ping and Caiyi, and prepared for the White Cloud City exchange meeting. Chu Feng and Cao Youqian arrived at the gathering, where they reunited amid the Ye Clan’s preparations.
Wang Baole reclaimed the Heavenly Saber Manor’s legacy with Chu Feng’s help, while Chu Feng’s disciples continued to advance. Chu Feng then traveled south, where he met Fang Mu and took him on as a nominal disciple.
Chu Feng taught Fang Mu and Rocket Turtle alchemy, took Chen Qianqian as his disciple, and explored a fallen True God’s ruin before helping the Golden-Winged Eagle King reach Half-Saint. After the Eagle King defeated Great King Thousand Feet, Chu Feng continued south while Fang Mu began his Cloud Mist Sect assessment.
Chu Feng gained Bai Qian and Fang Mu as disciples, reunited with Nie Xiuyuan, and returned to the Dao-Seeking Academy. Ye Beixuan then led fellow disciples toward Desolate Ancient City, stopping at an auction to seek a key before Qin Yun could obtain it.
Ye Beixuan and the disciples entered Desolate Ancient City, where they pursued its relics and faced trials that tested their fortunes, bodies, and cultivation. As the disciples advanced through separate inheritances, Xiao Chen began learning the Five Elements Sword Technique and Cao Youqian continued his Nether River trial.
Chu Feng’s disciples returned from their trials, and Xu Caichen sought to reclaim Bai Suxin from the East Sea. The dispute over their marriage escalated into a battle at the Azure Flood Dragon King’s Palace, where Xiao Chen faced the king with a Sword Jade.
Chu Feng guided his disciples and allies through cultivation breakthroughs, while Fang Mu and Rocket Turtle subdued the dangers beneath the Li Fire Sect. In Unrivaled City, Chu Feng helped Rushing Thunder become Great Sage Benlei, secured the Thunder Duke’s Saint Hammer, and returned to Miaomiao Mountain with its artifact spirit.
Chu Feng's disciples gathered for Bing Yan's breakthrough and the Holy Son ceremony before helping Nie Xiuyuan avenge the Nie Clan. Chu Feng defeated Great Sage Sacred Heart, then returned to recruit new disciples and accepted Shi Xuan, whose fortune marked him as a Great Villain of Destiny.
Shi Xuan cultivated the Secret of the Character Qian and turned his engagement ceremony into a confrontation with the Children of Destiny. When Chu Feng stepped in to protect him, the hidden powers behind the challengers appeared, and Qiu Qianhen opened the golden coffin.
Chu Feng and his companions dealt with the Spirit Tomb Sect’s hidden dangers while their allies uncovered treasures and advanced in cultivation. The group reunited at Miaomiao Mountain, where Chu Feng’s reward for Xiao Chen’s breakthrough raised his True Essence total to 530.
Chu Feng’s disciples helped Ye Beixuan win Feng Qiongyu’s hand, then Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian traveled to other continents to prove themselves. Cao Youqian lured the Fire God Sect into a confrontation and, with Great Sage Blazing Sun and Chu Feng’s Sword Jade, destroyed the Fire Devil God, leaving the sect’s Great Sages silent.
Cao Youqian seized the Fire God Sect’s treasury and negotiated with the rival factions, while Chu Caiyi reunited with her children and helped Chu Xuedao settle his debts with the Liu Lineage and Severed Emotion Valley. Chu Feng then followed Bing Yan to Extreme Cold Mountain Manor, where she chose Bing Ya as her disciple as the clan’s conflicts continued.
Bing Yan and Chu Feng secured the Extreme Cold Mountain Manor’s position at the Sexagenary Battle, while Chu Feng grew a bodhi tree at Miaomiao Mountain. Han Ping returned to Haozhou, restored the Han family, and rescued Han Xiulin from Tiger Lord.
