• When Cassandra asked where to build a transcendent city, the Avatar proposed Australia because it had ample flat land and few remaining living creatures.

Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi explained the Galactic Transcendent Council’s plans for building cities, industries, and an interstellar trading market on Pluto, then shared the Avatar’s newly cultivated upper-grade spirit tea. After learning about the Galactic Network’s communication delays and the limits of faster-than-light travel, the Avatar was left considering how the Council had reached the Solar System so quickly.

• Cassandra told Di Qiling that the Council would provide technology and equipment while Blue Star’s people handled construction, industry, and resource management, and that Pluto would host a supervised interstellar trading market.
• The Avatar invited Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi to taste his newly cultivated upper-grade spirit tea, and they gathered at Silver River Abode on Heavenly River Peak.

• Cassandra explained that ordinary Galactic Network news could take years to arrive, while Di Qiling described the costly devices and methods needed for real-time communication.
• Shaweiqi said interstellar travel was normally as fast as communications and could take eight or nine years from the Milky Way’s center to the Orion Arm, leaving the Avatar puzzled about the Council’s arrival in just over a month.

The Avatar learned why Galactic General Knowledge omitted much of the information about high-tier lifeforms, then explored galactic finance and calculated how Blue Star could produce spirit origin crystals. He was shocked by the prices of transcendent goods, and Shaweiqi began explaining how other systems nurtured low-potential transcendent lifeforms.

• Cassandra explained that learning too much about high-tier lifeforms could cause higher-dimensional contamination, while touching part of a complete law offered some resistance.
• The Avatar accessed the communicator’s network, created a Galactic Interstellar Bank account, and studied standardized energy crystals and their value as fuel.
• The Avatar calculated that global Formation Domains could raise Blue Star’s energy concentration and produce tens of thousands of spirit origin crystals annually, though intermediate-tier crystals were much harder to make.
• The Avatar browsed the marketplace and found that initial-stage potions, artifacts, and transcendent plants cost tens of thousands of low-grade energy crystals.
• Shaweiqi explained that systems had developed ways to nurture transcendent lifeforms with no potential for advancement.

The Avatar taught his disciples the Heavenly River Dao Foundation Purple Mansion Dharma Treatise and explained different ways to make up for deficiencies when advancing. He then brought them to the Return to Heaven Formation Domain Tower to observe his attainment of Rooftop Earth.

• The Avatar gave his three disciples the Purple Mansion cultivation treatise and urged them to follow paths suited to themselves.
• Chen Tianping asked whether three Dao Foundations and five Divine Abilities were required, and the Avatar described how resources or perfected abilities could compensate.

• Wang An entered seclusion as Great Forest Wood's Law Runes began transforming into a Purple Mansion Divine Ability.
• After a year, Wang An emerged with the Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy, which gathered Qi Destiny and began restoring some of what had been lost.
• Wang An sensed three other major Qi Destiny manifestations across Blue Star, then saw Ye Tianli's Qi Destiny surge until it nearly matched Lu Tianxin's.

Ye Tianli developed an artifact that greatly improved microscopic energy control, and Wang An directed her to apply it to the global Formation Domains to increase Life Primordial Qi conversion. Meanwhile, Wang An’s Avatar recruited Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi to help forge a transcendent space battleship from a mid-stage star beast, and the group began planning the work.

• Ye Tianli showed Wang An’s Avatar the Armillary Particle Instrument, which tracked energy particles and achieved over ninety percent conversion efficiency in a fusion reactor.
• Wang An’s Avatar urged Ye Tianli to apply the technology to Energy-Gathering Conversion Formation Domains, and she resolved to pursue the work for its benefits and Qi Destiny.
• Wang An’s Avatar released processed mid-stage star beast materials in the desert and summoned Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi to help build a battleship.
• Shaweiqi explained that mid-stage star beasts were prohibited from being bred and were unavailable on the ordinary market, which made the materials especially valuable to Cassandra and Di Qiling.
• Wang An’s Avatar agreed to share the research technology and pay each helper with a hundred-meter piece of star beast material, then began explaining his battleship requirements.

Cassandra, Di Qiling, Shaweiqi, and the Avatar planned a roughly one-kilometer warship built mainly from star beast materials. Over the following years, Blue Star reached a transcendent environment, its cultivation society expanded, and the chapter ended with Coach Chen teaching archery to young people in Changnan.

• Cassandra asked for advice on the warship’s requirements, and Di Qiling and Shaweiqi assessed its weapons, materials, and cost.
• The group began detailed plans for the ship, which would be cheaper to build from available materials than to buy outright.
• As Ye Tianli’s precision control technology spread, Blue Star’s energy concentration rose to seven over two and a half years, transforming its ecosystem and bringing new spirit beings and plants.
• Blue Star’s cultivation population surged, while Lu Tianxin, Ling Li, Linghua, Chen Tianping, and Ye Tianli advanced in their cultivation and work.
• As material needs became widely met, life-level crystals replaced conventional currency and people increasingly pursued longevity, strength, and transcendence.
• Coach Chen taught archery to youths at the training center converted from his former archery club.

• Wang Quan’s Avatar said he was stepping down from his Changnan Interstellar positions for a Supreme Council mission and that Spirit Radiance would take over his work.
• Wang Quan’s Avatar told the captains that those who attained the transcendent realm on the mission would have more chances to meet him again.

Spirit Radiance assigned Changnan Interstellar’s captains to a dangerous Venus expedition that could help them reach the Transcendent level, while the Avatar prepared the Heavenly River for its first long voyage. After confirming its systems and bidding farewell to Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi, he set out to explore the outside world.

• Spirit Radiance told Mo Yuemei and the other captains that Changnan Interstellar had accepted a Federation planetary-transformation mission to gather rare resources on Venus, where more than a hundred level-ten lifeforms had emerged.

The warship’s route became unknown after it vanished from the Council’s sensors, while Lan Li reported its departure to Sword Force Octopus King.

• The Avatar studied the Milky Way star map and ordered [Spirit Radiance] to plot a route to the Bronze, Silver, and Gold Human Races’ Transcendent Academies, followed by the [Galactic Transcendent Council].
• [Spirit Radiance] took the [Heavenly River] into the Dark Universe, and the Avatar obtained approval to leave the Solar System.

• Lan Li reported to Sword Force Octopus King that Perfected Heavenly River’s Avatar had left the Solar System and that the warship’s stealth ability made its course impossible to track.

The Avatar and Spirit Radiance reviewed reports of disputes over spreading transcendent teachings and the search for emerging ruins while traveling toward the third-class human race’s Transcendent Academy. Severe spatial fluctuations forced their warship out of the dark universe, and the Avatar sent an Azure Firmament Water figure through a crystal wall onto a continent, where it discovered an unfamiliar energy.

• Spirit Radiance summarized reports of rival races competing to spread transcendent paths and exploration groups seeking newly emerged ruins.
• The Avatar chose to continue toward the Transcendent Academy rather than divert toward regions with frequent spatial fluctuations.
• A violent spatial disturbance destabilized the warship, forcing it to decelerate and emerge into the physical universe near a continent.
• The Avatar sent an Azure Firmament Water figure through the turbulent space to probe the continent’s crystal wall, which absorbed the figure’s Divine Ability and pulled it inside.
• The Avatar used the Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy Purple Mansion Divine Ability to reconnect with the figure, which appeared beside a rural field and detected an unfamiliar, faint energy.

The Avatar entered Clear Void Heaven, where it used its Yin Spirit thought to take control of Yin Pingzhi and learn about the world.

• The Azure Firmament Water little figure reached the city’s great teleportation array, where a Foundation Establishment cultivator prepared to assist after wood qi entered his body.

The Yin Spirit used the Azure Firmament Water little man to activate Mysterious Nether Immortal City’s cross-domain array, draining the city’s spiritual qi and ruining Danyuanzi’s pill. The little man escaped to the Central Domain, and Clear Mysteries Sect’s Second Elder Qingzhenzi arrived after the teleportation.

• The Yin Spirit controlled the array official and a guard, then powered the cross-domain teleportation array with spiritual qi drawn from Mysterious Nether Immortal City and its surroundings.
• The array’s drain ruined Danyuanzi’s nearly completed pill, and his divine sense was burned when he tried to inspect the Azure Firmament Water little man.
• Danyuanzi sensed the little man’s law-level aura, abandoned his anger, and reported the apparent Nascent Soul cultivator to the Clear Mysteries Sect’s sect master.
• As the array charged, the Azure Firmament Water little man crushed spirit stones, materials, and ores to speed it up while the city’s spiritual qi fell below 1.
• The array reached full charge and sent the Azure Firmament Water little man toward the Central Domain, leaving Mysterious Nether Immortal City’s buildings and spirit fields ruined.
• Qingzhenzi tore through space and appeared in the city, where Danyuanzi bowed and greeted him as the Second Elder.

The Azure Firmament Water miniature entered Earth Spirit Sect territory disguised as Daoist Azure Firmament and sought refuge at the Earth Spirit Academy. After the sect placed him under observation, he began an assessment of his spiritual plant cultivation skills.

• Qingzhenzi warned Danyuanzi that the Realm-Suppressing Dao Bell's three rings signaled a likely invasion from outside the Domain, while Danyuanzi anticipated gaining resources.
• The Azure Firmament Water miniature arrived in Earth Spirit Sect territory and told Perfected Taichang that he had fled exploitation in the Southern Domain.
• Perfected Taichang consulted a Nascent Soul elder, who agreed to admit Daoist Azure Firmament to the academy while keeping him under close observation.
• Ling Ping escorted Daoist Azure Firmament to the Earth Spirit Academy, where he claimed expertise cultivating late-stage Foundation Establishment spiritual plants.
• Daoist Azure Firmament began the spiritual plant assessment by using the Spirit Seed Gentle Breeze Technique on the seeds.

The Azure Firmament Water little man impressed the Earth Spirit Academy examiners with consummate spirit-plant techniques and gained a junior researcher position. He entered the Scripture Repository to choose a Core Formation cultivation method, but the chapter ended as he began examining the Earth Immortal lineage’s techniques.

• The chief examiner recognized the Azure Firmament Water little man’s spirit-plant spells as consummate-level and noted a faint trace of spirituality.

• The Azure Firmament Water little man examined several cultivation lineages, found the Earth Immortal lineage most promising, and picked up the Inner Landscape Spirit Cultivation Scripture.

Wang An deduced the Five Immortals and Three Powers framework, gaining a golden nature that strengthened his perception and helped him develop the Earth Immortal cultivation system. His Azure Firmament Water figure studied the Earth Spirit Sect’s scripture and began exploring the Earth Spirit Academy while under surveillance.

• Wang An deduced the roles of Earth Immortals, Divine Immortals, Ghost Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and Human Immortals in the cycle of the three powers, and a golden nature formed within his true spirit.
• The golden nature opened Wang An’s third microscopic gate, letting him perceive the thoughts of living beings below the high tier, including Ling Ping’s suspicion of Daoist Azure Firmament.
• Wang An organized the Five Immortals system while his Azure Firmament Water figure exchanged the Inner Landscape Spirit Cultivation Scripture for the Earth Immortal inheritance and entered seclusion to study it.
• The Azure Firmament Water figure deduced how the scripture could develop from creating spirituality to forming spirit bodies, blessed lands, and eventually grotto-heavens.
• Wang An’s blessed land developed illusory sun and great Yin spheres, producing day-and-night and heat-and-cold cycles that supported its inhabitants.
• After two days, the Azure Firmament Water figure left seclusion to exchange knowledge and visit the Earth Spirit Academy’s halls, ignoring the talisman figure secretly following him.

The Azure Firmament Water homunculus used Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy to subdue Taichang and learn the Earth Spirit Sect’s history and Earth Immortal legacy. After two days of travel, the Heavenly River reached the barrier above the Earth Spirit Blessed Land, where the Avatar saw that a sinister aura shadowed the flourishing Earth Immortal path.

• The Azure Firmament Water homunculus used spirit willows to conceal his actions, plant a Qi Destiny seed in Taichang, and prevent her from reporting the anomaly.
• Taichang bowed to the Avatar and revealed the Earth Spirit Sect’s history and its philosophy of helping heaven and earth develop.
• The Avatar learned that the Earth Spirit Sect had inherited the Earth Immortal Method from the Supreme Clarity Immortal Sect’s ruins and had developed it using a blessed land fragment.
• The Avatar decided to use Taichang to bring Core Formation cultivators under control so he could gain access to the Earth Spirit Blessed Land.
• After two days of travel, the Heavenly River reached the crystalline barrier, and the Avatar observed a black, sinister aura surrounding the Earth Immortal path’s Qi Destiny.

The Azure Firmament Water homunculus built a powerful, compact formation and had Taichang recruit Core Formation cultivators to expand his influence. When Taichang brought the Earth Spirit Sect’s fourth elder to the spirit fields, the formation trapped him and the homunculus subdued him with corrosive wood qi.

• The Azure Firmament Water homunculus forged the spirit-field formation into a peak First-Tier High Grade formation, then authorized Taichang to recruit cultivators while avoiding the Nascent Soul elders’ notice.
• Taichang brought seven Core Formation cultivators to the spirit fields, where the formation was reforged as a Second-Tier Low Grade grand formation.
• The group identified the fourth elder, whose declining condition left his actual strength around Early Nascent Soul, as a suitable target, and Taichang went to invite him.
• The fourth elder arrived with Taichang bound, but the formation expanded around them and sealed his magical power and spiritual sense.
• The fourth elder tried to escape using his [Myriad Phenomena Star Body], but the Azure Firmament Water homunculus sent dense wood qi against his Nascent Soul, immobilizing him and silencing his soul.

The Avatar controlled Earth Spirit Sect’s fourth elder and learned about the sect’s defenses and hidden reserves before preparing to evacuate the academy’s prodigies. As invading ships entered Clear Void Heaven, the group gathered resources and waited for a safe moment to leave in Taizhen’s flying boat.

• The Avatar made the fourth elder accept the cause of the Earth Immortal and questioned him about the Earth Spirit Sect’s forces and Spirit Transformation cultivators.
• The Avatar ordered the elders to gather the academy’s prodigy cultivators and distribute Qi Destiny Seeds while he sent the sect’s cultivation arts to Wang An.
• The Avatar sensed blood-red tribulation qi spreading through Clear Void Heaven, expelled it from his body, and saw invading ships gather beyond the laws’ crystalline barrier.
• Taichang reported that fifty prodigies had been selected, and Taizhen delivered resources and offered his flying boat for the group’s escape.
• The Avatar transferred supplies into the blessed land space and told Taizhen and Taichang to load their remaining resources onto the boat as invading ships began entering Clear Void Heaven.

The Avatar watched the Earth Spirit Sect repel an initial assault before the five mid-stage factions switched to scouting and discovered Clear Void Heaven was a powerful immortal cultivation civilization. He informed his allies, then Wang An revealed to Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi that the supposed ruin was an ascended human immortal cultivation world.

• The Earth Spirit Sect raised its protective formation and sent three warship fleets against the invading fleets, while Clear Void Heaven’s lifespan laws killed more than a dozen elderly initial-stage transcendent lifeforms.
• The invaders formed a coordinated attack Formation Domain, but the Earth Spirit Sect’s Nascent Soul elders tore through space and forced them to scatter and retreat.
• The five factions returned with unmanned ships to survey the Central Domain, prompting the Earth Spirit Sect’s elders to defend its resources and population as the invaders gathered information.
• The invaders learned that Clear Void Heaven was a powerful civilization with Spirit Transformation existences, so the five mid-stage existences sent communications ships to contact their high-stage factions.
• The Avatar decided to notify his three high-stage human allies, while Wang An told Cassandra, Di Qiling, and Shaweiqi that Clear Void Heaven was an ascended immortal cultivation world of humans.

After learning that Clear Void Heaven was a fallen cultivation world with potentially powerful inheritance, Wang An warned human leaders, who moved to secure its resources. Meanwhile, five mid-level warships prepared a coordinated assault on the Earth Spirit Sect’s formation as the defenders scrambled to resist.

• Di Qiling explained competing theories about how cultivation worlds formed and warned that their laws could disrupt humanity’s transcendent Dao lineages.
• Di Qiling contacted her kin, while the other leaders alerted humanity’s higher authorities and the Transcendent Council; they thanked Wang An and promised him a share of any gains.
• Lu Fei urged the five factions to plunder the Earth Spirit Blessed Land before stronger forces arrived, and the factions planned an unmanned attack using mid-level warships.
• The five warships descended over the Earth Spirit Blessed Land and charged their weapons at a weak node in the Earth Spirit Sect’s formation.
• The sect’s Nascent Soul elders led raids against the warships while the formation redistributed energy to reinforce its defenses.

The Earth Spirit Sect’s formation fell to the Ruins Hunter Group’s battleships, but grand elder Dilingzi appeared with a high-grade second-order dharma treasure and destroyed four of them. Dilingzi then discovered that Daoist Azure Firmament had secretly plundered the Earth Spirit Academy, while the Avatar escaped with Taichang, Taizhen, and their group aboard the Heavenly River.

• The Ruins Hunter Group’s five battleships breached the formation’s nodes and destroyed the immortal cities sustaining them.
• The Earth Spirit Sect’s sect master and cultivators summoned grand elder Dilingzi, who restored the formation and revealed a high-grade second-order sickle dharma treasure.
• Dilingzi’s sickle shattered the shields of four battleships and reaped their materials and laws, while the Ruins Hunter Group’s remaining battleship escaped beyond the heavens.
• Dilingzi investigated the Earth Spirit Academy and found its high-ranking cultivators and treasury resources missing; his heavenly secrets formation showed Daoist Azure Firmament entering before the theft.
• The Avatar secretly carried Taichang, Taizhen, and their group aboard the Heavenly River during the battle, drawing the anger of nearby mid-tier beings after four battleships were destroyed.
