Daoist Yufu witnessed the ancestral master's authority establish Heavenly Dao laws restricting intelligent life in self-sustaining spaces, and the Human Federation issued new measures governing spatial regions. The decree sparked a wave of exploration and interest in Inner Scene blessed fields, while cultivators began sharing their discoveries; half a month later, the first explorers emerged from a secret land sealed off by Federation forces.

• Half a month later, cultivators began emerging from the earth-vein secret land, where Federation forces had sealed off the area and three Dao Foundation cultivators stood guard.

The Federation’s first secret land revealed innate spirit treasures that could help cultivators form Dao Foundations, igniting a rush to explore similar places. Over the next five years, secret lands multiplied and Dao Foundation cultivators surged, but no Purple Mansion secret realms appeared, worrying aging veteran cultivators.

• After the cultivators left the secret land, a Federation official offered them safe cultivation chambers, resource exchanges, or passage away, while requiring them to record what they had found.

Wang He attended a gathering of Dao Foundation cultivators, where Daoist Qianmiao introduced him as the first person to attain the Yin and Yang Dao Foundation and a nominal disciple of the Heavenly River Dao Lineage.

Daoist Qianmiao and the other cultivators entered the secret realm after Yuanlian warned them about its dangers and the rarity of its Purple Mansion opportunity. Wang He arrived alone on a floating planetary fragment and faced a powerful metal flood dragon, whose innate freezing-and-stagnation ability he identified as a Desolate Realm Divine Gift.

• Daoist Qianmiao said the secret realm was likely to contain only one Purple Mansion opportunity, and Yuanlian warned cultivators to prioritize survival and avoid harming their fellow Federation members.

• Wang He identified the flood dragon's innate power as a Desolate Realm Divine Gift and used his Yin-Yang force field to withstand its bite, though the creature's domain slowed his movements.

Wang He countered the metal flood dragon’s freezing and stagnating power, defeated it without destroying its spirit-metal body, and gathered resources from its undersea lair. After strengthening the Two Aspects Star Wheel and advancing his cultivation, he surveyed the nearby star fragments and prepared to leave.

• Wang He used lesser Yang and reverting Yin to weaken the metal flood dragon’s Desolate Realm Divine Gift, then trapped and crushed it with the Two Aspects Star Wheel.

• Wang He assessed his spirit lights and other finds, observed a powerful void whale feeding near the star fragments, and prepared to leave.

Wang He explored a star fragment, subdued a rare Life and Death Desolate Vine, and rejected Grand Wizard Xinghuo’s attempt to claim it. Xinghuo seethed over the encounter but decided against provoking Wang He because of his backing.

• Wang He rode a Void Whale to another star fragment and watched Grand Wizard Xinghuo defeat an Earth-Element Desolate Monkey with life magic.
• Wang He found a Life and Death Desolate Vine feeding on a corpse, tested its aggression with Qi Refining-stage desolate beasts, and subdued it with the Two Aspects Star Wheel.
• Grand Wizard Xinghuo approached Wang He and claimed that he had raised the vine, offering a thousand spirit crystals to buy it back.
• Wang He challenged Xinghuo’s claim, kept the vine, and vanished from the star fragment.
• Xinghuo considered seizing Wang He’s spiritual artifact but restrained himself because Wang He was a nominal disciple of the Heavenly River Dao Lineage.

Wang He collected spiritual treasures in the secret realm and killed an ambusher wielding a blood-red sword artifact. Wizard Xinghuo and four other top wizards then trapped him with Quasi-Second Tier great magic and demanded his treasures.

• Wizard Xinghuo demanded that Wang He surrender his lifebound spiritual artifact and treasures, while Wang He rejected the threat and watched the vortex descend.

Wang He used the Two Aspects Divine Light to kill five top-tier wizards and escaped with their spoils, then traveled to the star fragment where cultivators awaited the Purple Mansion opportunity. Meanwhile, Wang An and Divine Lord Huanjing watched the secret realm and communed their attainments, causing their Inner Scene Grotto-Heaven to expand.

• Wang He unleashed the Two Aspects Divine Light, broke the sealing formations, and killed the five top-tier wizards, though the technique depleted much of the Lesser Yang Star Cluster.
• Wang He discovered that the blood fiend sword contained a spatial spiritual object, stored his spoils inside it, and quietly left as cultivators approached.

• Wang An and Divine Lord Huanjing communed their Five Elements and Spatial Transformation attainments, generating spiritual objects and expanding the Inner Scene Grotto-Heaven.

Wang He climbed the starry staircase, drove off a rival, and gathered Mystic Qi while other cultivators fell behind. On the ninety-ninth step, he used the Two Aspects Star Wheel to form the Innate Yin and Yang Two Aspects Interconnected Qi.

• Wang He climbed the staircase and realized its pressure grew with each step while its Mystic Qi offered benefits to cultivators.

At the front, High Tier experts discovered that the realms were protected by the absolute truth of the Transcendent Tier Dao treasure, the Truth-Seeking Heavenly Principle Pagoda.

• Wang An learned that three realms with more than thirty High Tier experts were advancing, alerted the Federation, and sent his Avatar to fortify the Black Iron Star Domain.

• The Source Force Dominator revealed that the realms surrounded the Truth-Seeking Heavenly Principle Pagoda, whose truth rejected outside High Tier power.
• The Eternal Dharma King explained how truth ranked above ordinary laws, then declined to follow the Source Force Dominator’s suggestion to travel to Clear Sea.

High Tier factions failed to seal the Nightmare Ghost Netherworld after a powerful ghost lord attacked them, so they agreed to contain the ghost clans and protect their own territories. Half a month later, a ghost king led an assault on Heavenly River, believing the Black Iron Human Race would be easy to defeat.

• A black beam from the Nightmare Ghost Netherworld attacked Wang An, but the immortal palace reflected it into a ghost river and froze a vast stretch of souls.

• A ghost king mistook Heavenly River's defenders for the weak Black Iron Human Race and ordered the ghost river to crush them, sending a tide of ghost qi toward the garrison.

The Heavenly River stopped the ghost clan from crossing into the Black Iron Star Domain, forcing its main force to withdraw while leaving troops behind to create ghost-mud planets. After the Human Federation launched a cleanup campaign, Wang He departed for the Hazy Star Domain on a dangerous mission as the war continued elsewhere.

• The ghost clan tried to cross the Heavenly River with ships, flying ghosts, paper bridges, and ghost cannons, but each attempt failed.
• The ghost king ordered most of the ghost river to detour toward the Bronze Star Domain, leaving one-fifth of its forces behind to make ghost-mud planets.

Wang He entered the Ancient Immortal Heavenly Realm under the identity of Perfected Tai Zheng and learned that the Mystic Purity Thunder Office was not yet ready to confront the fiends beyond its realm. After boarding an immortal ship, he met Perfected Liu Hua, who warned that his Dao name could offend ancient immortal lineages, but he insisted he could not abandon it.

• Wang He approached the defensive-line star system and found it guarded by the Mystic Purity Thunder Office rather than occupied by the Evil Land's ghost race.
• Perfected Tai Zheng met Envoy Li Yun and asked whether the Thunder Office would enter the Tianxin Galaxy to fight the fiends; Li Yun gave no firm commitment.

• The steward hurried away to report Wang He’s arrival, and a powerful wood spirit entered the palace as the other cultivators watched.

Wang He negotiated with Qing Yang for Azure Dragon Divine Heaven's disciples to study in the Human Federation in exchange for records about the Ancient Church of Truth Seeking.
