The Qin Clan’s Incense-Fire Puppets preserved the talents and skills of the dead while strengthening Great Qin, as its early generations dwindled after decades of sacrifice. Under Great Qin’s peaceful rule and the Frost Cloud Realm’s spiritual resurgence, the realm entered a cultivation golden age with thirty-three Nascent Soul Cultivators beyond the Qin Clan.

• In 1355, Qin Daoran renamed Mieyang Immortal Palace the Scarlet Yang Immortal Palace and founded the Scarlet Yang Immortal Sect as Great Qin’s recognized counterpart to the Imperial Academy.

Qin Lu reached the peak of Spirit Transformation and considered establishing the Nine Heavens as an independent world, but he worried that the Frost Cloud Realm lacked enough origin to sustain the separation. Meanwhile, the Qin Clan had become the Qin Humans Race, a powerful and long-lived people whose growth was supported by Great Qin’s rule.

• Qin Lu perceived the Primordial Dao Sea and understood how separating the Nine Heavens would require the Frost Cloud Realm to nourish a new world branch and his Great Dao true spirit to connect it to the Dao Sea.

• Qin Daoran explained that Qin Lu feared the Frost Cloud Realm could not withstand the cost of his breakthrough to Purple Void.
• Qin Xuanzi proposed returning the Qin Clan’s stored resources and remains to the world, restoring sea blessed lands, and encouraging opportunities and contributions that would revive the Frost Cloud Realm.

By Year 2481 of the Great Qin calendar, centuries of growth had transformed the Frost Cloud Realm, where Spiritual Qi Tides and an attribute-bearing water Spirit Vein brought new opportunities. Jintong had become a Spirit Transformation True Dragon and the strongest being beneath Qin Lu.

• A fourth large Spirit Vein formed in the Mystic Heaven Sea as the Demon Race grew and Nascent Soul Realm Demon Emperors helped circulate Spiritual Qi under Qin people's rules.
• Great Qin organized Nascent Soul Cultivators to assist the Demon Emperors in maintaining Spiritual Qi Tides that benefited cultivators and living beings throughout the realm.

Qin Lu learned from Long Yuntian why newly ascended immortals were transported to the Primordial Land and was told to establish an Ascension Platform. After hearing the Divine Court’s rules and leaving his mark in its bronze cauldron, Qin Lu secretly made the trace destroy itself, leaving his location harder to track.

• Long Yuntian introduced Qin Lu to the Primordial Land’s rules, explaining that Lord Kong Yan’s law transported newly ascended immortals to Divine Court territory.
• Long Yuntian told Qin Lu to establish an Ascension Platform so Spirit Transformation cultivators from his world could ascend without weakening his cultivation by surrendering its origin.
• Long Yuntian described the Primordial Land’s domains, the Divine Court’s influence, and the dangers of the wilderness between immortal domains.
• Long Yuntian brought Qin Lu to a bronze cauldron, where Qin Lu left the required trace of his presence and secretly caused it to destroy itself.
• Qin Lu learned that immortals had broad autonomy so long as they avoided violating the Divine Court’s limited restrictions.

After receiving Divine Court certification, an Ascension Platform method and materials, and a star map from Long Yuntian, Qin Lu returned to the Dao Sea of Soul and considered how the Qin Clan could remain independent while expanding into the upper realm. He planned to use Bai Yun and Ye Wuxu to test the way forward and hoped Qin Qianyu could eventually develop an ascension formation that bypassed the Divine Court.

• Long Yuntian invited Qin Lu to join the Divine Court and gave him a star map, but Qin Lu departed without accepting the invitation.
• Qin Lu returned from the immortal palace to the Dao Sea of Soul by merging with the Great Dao, then used its extensions to locate a route back to the Qin Realm.
• Qin Lu assessed the Divine Court’s certification and Ascension Platform, concluding that ascending cultivators risked becoming servants or prey unless they found a way to avoid the Divine Court’s control.
• Qin Lu decided Bai Yun and Ye Wuxu could ascend first and test whether the Qin Clan could establish itself in the upper realm.
• Qin Lu considered Qin Qianyu’s potential to develop an independent ascension formation and examined the star map Long Yuntian had given him, a subsidiary of the Myriad Rivers Star Map that could record new regions of the cosmos.

After Qin Lu returned to the Qin Realm as a Purple Void True Immortal, his presence became too powerful for most cultivators—even his descendants—to face. Qin Daoran reported how the reshaped Qin Realm was organized and connected to the Frost Cloud Realm.

• Qin Lu’s return made cultivators across the Qin Realm sense his presence, and those below Spirit Transformation could not communicate with him; even some Nascent Soul cultivators risked having their Divine Sense and souls damaged by looking at him.

• Qin Lu gave Qin Zheng a star map and ordered him to build an expeditionary army, develop star-faring ships, and recruit clans with military merit as their incentive.
• Qin Xuanzi became the Qin Clan's fourth patriarch, and the clan limited future patriarchs to two thousand-year terms while raising the minimum succession requirement to Nascent Soul Realm.
• The Qin Clan withdrew most of its disciples from the Frost Cloud Realm and allocated its Spirit Vein resources among Qin Daoran, the empire, and the clan, leaving Qin Lu with only a modest share of Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

The Ascension Platform’s completion and public ascensions strengthened Great Qin’s authority and encouraged cultivators across the Frost Cloud Realm to pursue cultivation rather than conflict. Over the following centuries, the Qin Clan’s subordinate races and family members gained new Spirit Transformation Venerables, leaving the two worlds more secure under Qin Lu and the Qin Clan.

• The Ascension Platform was completed, and Ye Wuxu and Bai Yun ascended before the Frost Cloud Realm’s Nascent Soul Cultivators, inspiring them to proclaim their loyalty to Great Qin.
• Cultivators increasingly pursued Spirit Transformation and cooperation, reducing violence and helping the Frost Cloud Realm recover while Great Qin sought resources for its growing needs.

• Qin Xuanzi and, a century later, Qin Yingjie advanced to Spirit Transformation, bringing the Qin Clan’s total to six Venerables alongside Qin Lu, a True Immortal.

Bai Yun and Ye Wuxu established themselves as level-three Executors in the Divine Court’s Cloud Sea Immortal Domain, each taking a distant cultivation ground. Qin Lu then took over Bai Yun’s body and considered raising his rank to level one to provide cover for future expansion.

• Ye Wuxu and Bai Yun joined the Divine Court after Qin Lu recommended them and eventually became level-three Executors under Long Yunxian.
• The two established their own cultivation grounds in the North Sea and brought their Spirit Ascension Secret Realms and followers to the Primordial Land.
• Bai Yun suddenly lost control of his body, and Qin Lu’s consciousness took it over.
• Qin Lu considered raising Bai Yun’s cultivation so he could become a level-one Executor and help conceal the expansion to come.

Qin Lu controlled Bai Yun and accepted three Divine Court missions to hunt Spirit Transformation Evil Cultivators, seeking resources and a Star Sea Boat for the Qin Clan. He tracked down and destroyed the Night Cat Race, devoured its Spirit Transformation cultivator’s Primordial Spirit, and left Bai Yun strengthened.

• Qin Lu took control of Bai Yun, accepted three missions to hunt Spirit Transformation Evil Cultivators, and planned to secretly take their resources and treasures.
• Qin Lu set out in a Divine Court Star Sea Boat to pursue a Night Cat cultivator into the Darkest Nebula, hoping the vessel could help the Qin Clan develop star-sea warships.
• Qin Lu found the Night Cat Race dwelling among the shattered remains of a world and decided to destroy them rather than take them as a vassal race.
• Qin Lu unleashed tens of millions of Heaven-Piercing Frost Nails, killing nearly all the Night Cats and leaving their Spirit Transformation cultivator as the sole survivor.
• The Spirit Transformation Night Cat attacked with the Dao of space, but Qin Lu erased its attacks, seized it, crushed its Primordial Spirit, and devoured it, strengthening Bai Yun.

• Qin Lu froze a moon-sized meteor, shattered a star, and sent Tang Yan flying with a frost blade.
• Tang Yan attacked Qin Lu with Nine Lightning Divine Pearls, but he appeared behind her unharmed and seized her.
• Qin Lu recognized Tang Yan’s Profound Yin Dao Body and damaged her Primordial Spirit, leaving her unconscious.
• Qin Lu deduced that Immortal Fuchen had tried to offer Tang Yan to another True Immortal and that she had fled the Divine Court.
• Qin Lu judged Immortal Fuchen weak and considered gaining benefits from him, while distancing himself from the actions of Bai Yun.

Qin Lu brought Tang Yan to the Spirit-Burying Star Sea to hunt the Starfall Race, whose bodies could be used to improve his weapons and the Qin Clan’s artifact refining. He found a large Starfall settlement and began slaughtering its people, while carefully limiting his power to protect Bai Yun’s puppet body.

• Qin Lu reviewed a mission to kill a Starfall Race Spirit Transformation cultivator who had slain a Divine Court True Immortal’s descendant.

• Qin Lu told Tang Yan they were heading to the Spirit-Burying Star Sea, where the Starfall cultivator was hiding among ancient ruins.
• Qin Lu discovered a Starfall settlement containing at least nine Spirit Transformation cultivators and a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators, and recognized their bodies as valuable materials for God Devouring and the Qin Clan.
• Qin Lu unleashed a vast wave of frost across the star sea, killing or injuring more than half of the Starfall Race while restraining his power to avoid harming Bai Yun’s puppet body.

Qin Lu unleashed a cold wave that nearly wiped out the Starfall Race, then defeated and devoured its Spirit Transformation cultivators. The fight raised Bai Yun’s cultivation to the Spirit Transformation Late Stage and slightly strengthened Qin Lu, who reflected on what determined a True Immortal’s power.

• Qin Lu’s cold wave killed more than ninety-nine percent of the Starfall Race, leaving only a few dozen powerful cultivators and some protected survivors.
• Nine Starfall Race Spirit Transformation cultivators attacked Qin Lu, who transformed his Primordial Spirit Dharma Manifestation into an ice-and-snow Shura wielding six Sixth-Tier Heaven-Penetrating Spirit Treasures.
• Qin Lu killed two cultivators with his weapons and caused two more to die when their Primordial Spirits disintegrated from fear and soul toxin.
• Qin Lu froze the remaining five Spirit Transformation cultivators and devoured their Primordial Spirits, pushing Bai Yun to the Spirit Transformation Late Stage and gaining a small increase in strength himself.
• Qin Lu considered how a True Immortal’s world, authority, and control over the Great Dao determined their strength.

The chapter explained the stages of the True Immortal Realm and how Great Dao strength affected an immortal’s power. Over a century of traveling and carrying out missions with Tang Yan, Qin Lu strengthened her cultivation and amassed resources, leaving him ready to return to the Qin Realm with his spoils.

• The chapter described Mystic Immortal, Golden Immortal, Taiyi Jade Immortal, and Daluo Golden Immortal, while noting that a Great Dao’s strength and the distribution of its authority affected combat power.
• After returning to the Primordial Land with Tang Yan, Qin Lu turned in two missions, accepted seventeen more, and kept the mission to hunt Tang Yan so another executor would not pursue her.
• Qin Lu traveled the starry seas with Tang Yan for over a hundred years, completing missions and visiting powerful races while she served as his attendant and steward.
• With Qin Lu’s guidance, Tang Yan stabilized her cultivation at the Spirit Transformation Late Stage, reforged her foundation, and opened a Spirit Ascension Secret Realm using the Five Elements Creation Method.
• Qin Lu killed more than three hundred Spirit Transformation cultivators and gathered numerous treasures, including three Seventh-Tier treasures and over two hundred Sixth-Tier treasures, which he planned to take back to the Qin Realm.

Qin Lu returned from the star sea, completed his mission, and was promoted to a level-two executor before heading back to the Qin Realm. He brought Tang Yan with him and began secluded dual cultivation, hoping to strengthen his cultivation.

• Qin Lu decided to return home after realizing that advancing further required finding and killing another Soul Immortal, a task he could not yet manage.
• Qin Lu returned to the Cloud Sea Immortal Domain, completed his mission, and was promoted to a level-two executor, making Bai Yun widely known.
