Lin Yu kept his identity and abilities guarded after Su Xiaoxiao guessed he was a transmigrator, then spent two quiet months preparing for the story he expected to unfold. With the Spirit Infant Hall complete, he began converting his cultivation to the ancient system recorded in the Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique.

• Su Xiaoxiao told Lin Yu she had guessed he was a transmigrator and promised not to reveal it, while Lin Yu worried that others might discover him or exploit the Chat Group.
• Lin Yu spent the next two months cultivating and reading, uneasy that nothing unusual had happened around Uncle Nine.

• Lin Yu practiced the Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique and began trying to convert his current cultivation realm into the ancient system.

Lin Yu nearly died when he rushed his cultivation transition to the Spirit Transformation realm, but Uncle Nine and a willow-branch mark saved him. Two months later, Lin Yu was still feeding his new Primordial Spirit and building his strength, while Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai discovered something on Qiu Sheng’s shoulder in the Spirit Infant Hall.

• Lin Yu tried to skip ahead to Refining Ki into Spirit, but his lack of essence Qi caused his body to waste away as the transition nearly drained him dry.
• A willow-branch mark replenished Lin Yu’s energy, and Uncle Nine poured in his own power until Lin Yu’s Yin Spirit became a Primordial Spirit and he reached the Spirit Transformation realm.

• Lin Yu uploaded martial arts such as Tiger Fist, Crane Fist, and Five Forms Fist to the Chat Group to earn points, while his growing strength made him increasingly confident.
• Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai hid in the Spirit Infant Hall and watched Lin Yu leave; Wen Cai then pointed out something on Qiu Sheng’s shoulder.

Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai met the spirit infants Uncle Nine had sheltered and learned why he kept them in clay figures and gave them eggs. After Lin Yu finished cultivating, the Chat Group upgraded with a new feature that let sellers receive a share when another member bought their stored goods, prompting questions about past sales.

• Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai played with the spirit infants before Uncle Nine arrived and explained their circumstances and the purpose of the clay figures.
• Uncle Nine told Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng to place eggs before the spirit infants to soothe them, and he caught the eggs when Wen Cai tripped and sent them flying.
• Uncle Nine had Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng finish their evening practice while Lin Yu completed his cultivation and entered the Chat Group.
• Omniscient and Omnipotent announced that members would receive a share when another member bought something they had sold to the store.
• Huang Rong objected to the feature, and Xiao Yan asked whether the Chat Group would compensate members for earlier sales.

Lin Yu discovered that the Chat Group marketplace paid sellers a commission, so he listed Maoshan’s Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique and watched other members upload their own items. After snatching Innate Xirang from a red envelope, he tested whether he could absorb elemental treasures and successfully guided the Five Elements Immortal Bamboo’s five attributes into his organs, preparing to bring the bamboo itself into his body.

• Lin Yu learned that sellers received a 30% cut when the marketplace resold their items, then listed Maoshan’s Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique for one million points.
• Lin Yu announced his uploads, and Xiao Yan, Zhang Sanfeng, and Shi Hao listed items as well, while Huang Rong protested after finding Xiao Yan’s Flame Mantra for sale.

• Lin Yu drew the Five Elements Immortal Bamboo into his body and set it above his organs on a platform of five-element Qi.
• Lin Yu asked the Chat Group to conceal the Innate Xirang, but balked at its 500,000-point price and called for Uncle Nine.
• Uncle Nine warned that an Aura-Concealing Talisman could not hide the Xirang and said he could not guarantee a complete seal.
• Lin Yu and Uncle Nine summoned the True Lord, who contained the Xirang's presence with a pale golden dome.
• Lin Yu explained his plan to place the Xirang in his spleen, and the True Lord agreed to reduce it and bind it with his power.
• The True Lord shrank the Xirang to a needle-tip-sized speck and sealed away its heavy Earth Qi.

Lin Yu absorbed the Innate Xirang, which steadied and strengthened his spiritual Qi, while Uncle Nine reflected on his disciple’s extraordinary talent. As Lin Yu prepared to test new ideas, a mysterious woman resembling Yan Lingji arrived at Uncle Nine’s home.

• The True Lord completed the incorporation of the Innate Xirang into Lin Yu and urged him to cultivate and nourish his spleen.
• Uncle Nine praised Lin Yu’s ability to invent new methods but refused to ask where he had obtained the treasure.

• Lin Yu considered placing treasures of the other four elements in his remaining viscera, then decided the idea was too dangerous for now.
• Uncle Nine made Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng practice punches, then a beautiful, seemingly emotionless woman resembling Yan Lingji appeared at the door.

Lin Yu used his new Paper-Crafting Technique to create Yin Soldiers and a woman to frighten Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, while Uncle Nine hid to let his disciples face a real setback. Qiu Sheng’s peachwood sword broke against an armored ghost, and he narrowly avoided its counterattack.

• A woman led Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng toward three armored Yin Soldiers, and the two fled into the mortuary courtyard for help from Uncle Nine.

• Uncle Nine and Lin Yu watched from the roof as Lin Yu revealed that he had created the soldiers and woman using Paper-Crafting Technique and other abilities.
• Wen Cai threw a brick at a soldier to save Qiu Sheng, and Qiu Sheng dodged its blade by rolling away, narrowly escaping decapitation.

Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng fought ghost soldiers with a Bagua mirror before Uncle Nine and Lin Yu revealed the ghosts were a prank meant to test them. The next morning, Lin Yu demonstrated how to use a talisman by immobilizing Qiu Sheng, leaving Wen Cai unsure how to learn the technique.

• Wen Cai used the Bagua mirror to repel the ghost soldiers while Qiu Sheng struck one with a broken wooden sword and went inside to fetch a bow and talisman arrows.
• Uncle Nine appeared and killed the two remaining ghost soldiers before they could attack Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng.
• Qiu Sheng discovered the beautiful woman was a terrifying ghost, and he and Wen Cai panicked when Lin Yu revealed the ghosts were paper figures he had transformed.
• Lin Yu teased Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng for slacking off and left them to sleep, while Qiu Sheng admitted he had dribbled pee from fright.
• The next morning, Uncle Nine supervised Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng as they practiced drawing talismans.
• Lin Yu demonstrated the immobilization talisman by activating it on Qiu Sheng, leaving Wen Cai baffled about how to learn the technique.

Lin Yu taught Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng how to draw talismans before experimenting with an air-drawn Five Thunder Talisman. He successfully used it to destroy a ghost servant, but his experiment summoned storm clouds and thunder outside.

• Lin Yu corrected Wen Cai's brush grip and explained the difference between the characters for an edict and a request.
• Qiu Sheng showed off his Immobilization Talisman, but Uncle Nine reprimanded him for treating talisman drawing like a game.
• Uncle Nine drew a purple Five Thunder Talisman and taught the disciples that talismans required sincere reverence.
• Lin Yu returned to his room and devised a way to draw talismans in the air by directly mobilizing the power of heaven and earth.
• Lin Yu formed a Five Thunder Talisman with his fingertip and destroyed his paper-figure ghost servant, while thunder and dark clouds gathered outside.

After Lin Yu used the Heaven-Reaching Talisman without permission, heavenly disasters gathered to punish him, and he prepared to flee to another world. The Perfected Lord intervened, rebuked the heavens, and granted Lin Yu permission to use the borrowed authority.

• Lin Yu realized the Heaven-Reaching Talisman had angered the gods whose authority he had taken, and heavenly lightning, fire, and water surrounded him.
• Uncle Nine went to Lin Yu's room, then rushed him to the patriarch's hall to plead for help, but the patriarch could not answer.
• Lin Yu contacted the group to find a world where he could hide, while Uncle Nine prepared to protect him at the cost of his life.
• The Perfected Lord's manifestation appeared and drove back the heavenly disasters, declaring that Lin Yu had permission to use the authority.
• Uncle Nine pulled Lin Yu down to kowtow and thank the Perfected Lord.

After the heavenly calamity, Lin Yu told Uncle Nine about the Heaven-Reaching Talisman and traveled to Xu Xian’s world to test it. Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen invited him to demonstrate the divine ability in the mountains, leaving Lin Yu poised to find out how heaven would respond there.

• The Perfected Lord warned Lin Yu to be more careful before his manifestation dispersed.
• Lin Yu told Uncle Nine that he had comprehended the Heaven-Reaching Talisman, and Uncle Nine warned him about the trouble it could cause.
• Uncle Nine prepared to report the calamity and Lin Yu’s new talisman to Maoshan.
• Lin Yu chose to visit Xu Xian’s world, and a glimmer from the Perfected Lord’s statue entered his body as he departed.

• Lin Yu explained that the talisman had drawn the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Court, and Xu Xian proposed they go into the mountains so Lin Yu could demonstrate it.

Lin Yu demonstrated that his Heaven-Reaching Talisman could borrow lightning from the Thunder Ministry, then learned Bai Suzhen’s Shrinking the Earth into an Inch after watching her use it. The next day, Fahai came to Xu Xian’s home, and Lin Yu prepared to find out why he was so intent on subduing demons.

• Bai Suzhen took Lin Yu and Xu Xian to a remote mountain, where Lin Yu used a talisman to summon a bolt of lightning from the Thunder Ministry.
• The Thunder Ministry gods and the Perfected Lord of Pure Source and Wondrous Way were puzzled by Lin Yu’s Heaven-Reaching Talisman, while Lin Yu was pleased it had worked in another world.
• Bai Suzhen demonstrated Shrinking the Earth into an Inch, and Lin Yu immediately learned to fold space, travel, flicker between places, and swap positions with a stone.
• Bai Suzhen replenished Lin Yu’s Primordial Spirit and explained that he had learned the spell but had not yet made it his own divine ability.
• Fahai came to Xu Xian’s home the next day, and Lin Yu decided to investigate his determination to subdue demons.

Lin Yu challenged Fahai’s resolve to capture Bai Suzhen by arguing that goodness came from one’s actions and heart, not whether one was human or demon. Fahai wavered but remained resolute, and Lin Yu ended by asking him to judge the cause and effect behind their enmity.

• Fahai came to the Xu residence and accused Bai Suzhen of being a dangerous snake demon, while Xu Xian defended his wife.
• Lin Yu questioned Fahai’s belief that every demon deserved punishment, but Fahai shook the residence with his staff and insisted demons must be subdued.
• Lin Yu argued that Bai Suzhen’s kindness and love for Xu Xian showed that demons could follow the human Dao and that a person’s heart mattered more than their origins.
• Fahai hesitated at Lin Yu’s arguments about love and the distinction between purity and impurity, then reaffirmed that he was protecting the heavenly order.
• Lin Yu recounted how a snake catcher had tried to kill a white snake that was later saved, and asked Fahai to judge the resulting conflict through cause and effect.

Lin Yu tried to protect Bai Suzhen from Fahai, whose attack overwhelmed her while she was pregnant. Lin Yu invoked the Three Mao Patriarchs for help, and Great Lord Mao discovered that the caller was a Shangqing Sect disciple who seemed to come from another world.

• Lin Yu challenged Fahai's Buddhist motives, but Bai Suzhen refused to leave Xu Xian and prepared to fight him.
• Fahai attacked Bai Suzhen with his monk's staff, golden alms bowl, and kasaya, overpowering her water dragons.
• Lin Yu's talismans failed to stop Fahai, and he realized Bai Suzhen was three months pregnant and weakened in battle.
• Lin Yu invoked the Three Mao Patriarchs using his essence blood and urgently called for help.
• Great Lord Mao traced the invocation, saw Lin Yu and the others, and told the Emperor of the Eastern Peak that Lin Yu's Qi suggested he was not from this world.

Lin Yu reached the Immortal realm and intervened when Fahai attacked Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing. After suppressing Fahai’s heart demon, Lin Yu secured a wager: Fahai would leave the couple alone if their child proved human, but could act if the child proved to be a demon.

• Fahai tore Xiaoqing’s sash apart and struck her down, then suppressed Bai Suzhen’s wave with his staff.
• Great Lord Mao sent power into Lin Yu, allowing him to reach the Immortal realm as he summoned a god.
• Lin Yu dispersed Fahai’s golden light and immobilized him, but Fahai broke free and attacked Bai Suzhen again.
• Lin Yu recognized Fahai’s Qi deviation and used the Divine Mantra of Heart Purification to suppress his heart demon.
• Lin Yu proposed a wager based on whether Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian’s child would be human or a demon, and Fahai agreed to wait a year.

After Lin Yu drove Fahai away, Great Lord Mao summoned Lin Yu’s Primordial Spirit in a dream and warned him not to interfere further in Fahai, Xu Xian, and Bai Suzhen’s affairs. Great Lord Mao approved of Lin Yu’s wager with Fahai, which left Fahai a chance to recognize the truth.

• Xiaoqing wanted Lin Yu to kill Fahai, but Lin Yu and Bai Suzhen explained why killing him would bring danger and harm Lin Yu’s merit.
• In the upper realm, the Emperor Lord praised Lin Yu’s Heaven-Reaching Talisman, and Great Lord Mao noted that Lin Yu’s fortune had protected him from the Thunder Ministry.

• Great Lord Mao said Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen’s fate would be decided by unseen forces and praised Lin Yu’s wager for giving Fahai a chance to see the truth.

Great Lord Mao taught Lin Yu the Shangqing Dadong Scripture and gave him a jade talisman to help balance his yin and yang cultivation. After successfully cultivating both techniques together, Lin Yu emerged from his room and told Xu Xian it was time for him to return.

• Great Lord Mao identified the weakness in Lin Yu's Jade Maiden and Joy God Technique and imparted the Shangqing Dadong Scripture to strengthen his foundation.
• Lin Yu quickly grasped the new scripture and combined its masculine spiritual power with the feminine power of his existing technique.
• Great Lord Mao instructed Lin Yu to cultivate at dawn and gave him a jade talisman containing Yang Qi for emergencies.
• Back in his body, Lin Yu cultivated with the rising sun, fused yin and yang Qi, and felt his body grow stronger.
• Lin Yu left his room, saw Xu Xian preparing medicine, and said he had to return after staying for several days.

Lin Yu said goodbye to Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, and Xiaoqing after sharing a farewell meal with them. He returned to his own world, where the True Lord also ended his Dao discussion and parted from his counterpart.

• Xu Xian invited Lin Yu to stay for lunch and arranged a farewell meal, but Lin Yu protested that he was too young to drink.
• At the meal, Xiaoqing toasted Lin Yu, warned Xu Xian not to hurt Bai Suzhen, and teased Lin Yu about being young.

• At Guanjiangkou, the True Lord of Lin Yu's world ended his discussion of the Dao and exchanged farewells with the True Lord of Xu Xian's world.

Lin Yu returned to the funeral home after three days away and told Uncle Nine about the extraordinary jade pendant he had received from the founding master in another world. Uncle Nine sealed their surroundings so Lin Yu could explain how he had traveled between worlds, leaving the story poised for his account.

• Lin Yu returned to his room and learned from Wen Cai that he had been gone for three days.

• Uncle Nine created a barrier to keep others from overhearing, and Lin Yu began explaining what had happened since he first became Uncle Nine’s disciple.

Lin Yu told Uncle Nine about the Chat Group and his travels to a twin world, prompting Uncle Nine to hope he could become an immortal. Lin Yu reassured him, then revealed that the patriarch had also given him the Shangqing Dadong Scripture.

• Lin Yu explained to Uncle Nine that the Chat Group let him travel to other worlds using points and Teleportation Talismans.

After a year and a half of relentless cultivation and study, Lin Yu reached Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness and turned ten. On his birthday, an opera troupe arrived in Ren Family Town, prompting Qiu Sheng and Uncle Nine to show off their floral signs for the singer Lan Guifang.

• Lin Yu and Uncle Nine devoted themselves to cultivation, while Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng were made to study and train each day.
• Lin Yu broke through to Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, aided by the Innate Xirang and the Shangqing Dadong Scripture.

• Qiu Sheng showed Lin Yu an elaborate floral sign he and Wen Cai had made for Lan Guifang, and Lin Yu criticized its aesthetics.
• Uncle Nine entered with his own small floral sign, unaware that Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng were hiding theirs behind their backs.

Uncle Nine coveted Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng’s enormous floral tribute and tricked them into giving it up by stamping it with his name. After claiming it, he ordered them to fold ingots before they could attend the opera, leaving Lin Yu to refuse to help.

• Uncle Nine asked Wen Cai to explain what made a floral tribute impressive, and Wen Cai revealed the enormous heart-shaped tribute he and Qiu Sheng had made.
• Uncle Nine admired the tribute and tried to claim it, but Qiu Sheng hugged it and pleaded to keep it.
• Uncle Nine distracted Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng with a basket of ingots, then accidentally—or so he claimed—stamped their tribute with his seal.
• Uncle Nine handed Qiu Sheng his own small tribute and seal, then walked off with the large tribute bearing his name.
• Lin Yu refused to help Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng fold the ingots and warned the spirit children not to help them either.

Lin Yu found that Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng had refrained from asking the spirit infants to fold paper ingots, and he decided their improved behavior meant he could help them grow stronger. He spent the afternoon cultivating and contacted Shi Hao to ask about buying ordinary beast blood, while jokingly threatening to visit and beat him.

• Lin Yu found the spirit infants idle and learned Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng had not asked them to help fold ingots.
• Lin Yu told the spirit infants to wait peacefully for reincarnation and decided he would secretly help his senior brothers with the ingots later.
• Lin Yu resolved to strengthen Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng now that they had become more restrained.
• Lin Yu cultivated and read alone at the mortuary, then messaged Shi Hao to ask about buying ordinary ferocious beast blood.
• Shi Hao directed Lin Yu to the Chat Group store and asked for a greeting gift, prompting Lin Yu to threaten to visit and kick his butt.

Lin Yu prepared ferocious beast blood essence from Shi Hao for Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, removing its incompatible cultivation laws while leaving the remnant souls. After helping his senior brothers with their work, he revealed the blood essence and explained to Uncle Nine that he planned to use it to strengthen their foundations.

• Lin Yu paid Shi Hao two-fifths of the blood essence's value in mall points and selected three milder drops for Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng.
• Lin Yu removed the blood essence's cultivation laws that could clash with his senior brothers' system, while preserving the beasts' remnant souls.
• Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng returned to the mortuary and began folding gold ingots; Lin Yu joined them, then summoned paper figures to finish the work.
• Lin Yu showed Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng the three drops of ferocious beast blood essence, and they reacted to its powerful presence.
• Uncle Nine arrived, recognized that the blood essence came from another world, and heard Lin Yu explain that he intended to use it to temper his senior brothers' bodies.

Lin Yu prepared medicinal baths infused with essence blood to temper Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng’s bodies, while Uncle Nine supervised. After the two emerged stronger, Lin Yu offered Uncle Nine another drop of essence blood, then returned to cultivating as Uncle Nine called his senior brothers to demonstrate their gains.

• Lin Yu prepared two cauldrons of golden medicinal liquid with herbs and essence blood, then explained that Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng would absorb its power through a body-tempering bath.
• Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng climbed into the cauldrons and endured the scalding liquid and attacking beast phantoms while circulating their cultivation techniques.
