After greatly increasing his power, Xu Xing began to consult with the two Nascent Soul Daoist Lords, Ze Sheng Ancestor and Golden Rainbow Ancestor, to destroy their mortal enemy, Silver Ring Zhai.

Ze Sheng Ancestor, whose lifespan was nearing its end, had no objection to this proposal.

「A year later,」 the great battle began.

During the campaign against Silver Ring Zhai, Xing Tian Ancestor's fame soared; he was unparalleled at the time, having consecutively slain three Nascent Soul Daoist Lords, and thus was revered by the world.

In Tiande 247, the Emperor's Son Pavilion of the Chiming Imperial Dynasty dispatched cultivators to recruit Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing to serve under their command.

With the information from the previous divination, Xu Xing no longer stubbornly probed the secrets of the Chiming Imperial Dynasty but instead concentrated on his breakthroughs and Cultivation.

In Tiande 249, Xu Xing volunteered to go undercover in the Chu Kingdom's Pill Cauldron Sect to gather internal intelligence and seek an opportunity to assassinate the Pill Cauldron Sect's Xuan Yuan Saint.

In Tiande 257, due to a disagreement, Xu Xing secretly attacked and killed Extreme Yin Elder of the Emperor's Son Pavilion, performing Soul Searching to seize his soul.

In Tiande 263, Xu Xing broke through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul and returned to East Huangzhou.

Fortunately, the Flying Feather Immortal Palace had not discovered the Cross-State Teleportation Array, though they had deployed an array technique in the vicinity of where the Teleportation Array was located.

In Tiande 264, Xu Xing revitalized the Butian Sect's reputation. Seeing its great momentum and realizing they could not destroy it, the Flying Feather Immortal Palace took the initiative to negotiate peace, resulting in a three-clause agreement.

For a time, Daoist Lords from the original Master and Disciple Lineage of the Flying Feather Immortal Palace defected one after another to join the Butian Sect.

In Tiande 269, Xu Xing led the Butian Sect to establish a foothold in the North Wilderness. They became a subordinate power to the Seven Stars Sect and actively confronted the Yin Wind Gate.

「Two years later,」 Xu Xing led fifteen Daoist Lords from the Butian Sect to infiltrate the Godslayer Sect. They eradicated the Godslayer Sect from East Huangzhou and seized its stores of Seven Star Begonia Poison.

During this period, Xu Xing remained indifferent to Elder Zuo Qiu's assassination. He did not warn the Nanhua Sect in advance, choosing instead to conceal the matter.

「Five years later,」 Xu Xing used the Seven Star Begonia Poison to assassinate Mao Ri Saint Lord. He then usurped his position, becoming the foremost power in the North Wilderness.

Leveraging the resources of the North Wilderness, Xu Xing's Cultivation rapidly advanced to the Late stage of Nascent Soul, and he became a Nascent Soul Grand Cultivator.

In Tiande 321, Xu Xing, now possessing a Dao Pill Cultivation, returned to the Nanyan Continent. He re-entered the Pill Cauldron Sect, gaining the attention of its Grand Elder.

In Tiande 411, the Emperor's Son Pavilion launched a campaign to exterminate the various Daoist Sects in the Nanyan Continent, collecting the Nascent Souls of Daoist Lords from these sects.

For a time, cries of anguish echoed from the various sects across the Nanyan Continent as countless lives were lost. The Daoist lineages of various sects were successively extinguished.

「After thirty-seven years,」 the Emperor's Son Pavilion halted its campaign of conquest and retreated into the shadows. Because Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing had contributed greatly, they were each granted a Yuan Shen Pill. Furthermore, they were promised that within two hundred years, they would be guided into the Zhongtu Dao State.

In Tiande 448, Xu Xing utilized the "Exorcism Holy Art" and a Yuan Shen Pill to achieve a breakthrough in the Seven Star Sect Cave, becoming a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch.

After his breakthrough, a wisp of Innate Immortal Qi within Xu Xing's body gradually strengthened, coalescing into a full strand of Immortal Qi.

Aided by the Immortal Qi, his bloodline began to undergo a peculiar transformation, showing signs of the Heavenly Phoenix Taoist Body and the Human Emperor Body awakening.

Wary of this development, Xu Xing, who had now reached the Nascent Soul Realm, did not act rashly. Instead, he remained in the Seven Star Sect Cave to continue his Cultivation, hoping to suppress the awakening of the Human Emperor Body.

「One hundred years later.」

Through Xu Xing's diligent efforts, the Heavenly Phoenix Taoist Body successfully awakened, while the Human Emperor Body remained dormant within his bloodline, showing no signs of emerging.

In Tiande 452, Xu Xing, Yan Luanqing, and a group of Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Emperor's Son Pavilion used the Cross-State Teleportation Array to arrive in the Chiming Imperial Dynasty.
