After the Grand Elder returned the Evil God's Bone Flute to Tantai Jing, they discovered the flute remained bound to the Nightmare Evil Lord, preventing the Dark Moon Clan from using its powers. The Grand Elder then asked Chu Xinghe when the Nightmare Evil Lord would die, recalling Chu Xinghe's prediction that the Nightmare Evil Spirits would soon be wiped out.

• The Grand Elder gave the Evil God's Bone Flute to Tantai Jing, who tried and failed to use it because it was still bound to its master.

On the Evil Shadow Continent, the Nightmare Evil Lord grew alarmed by Meng You’s silence and decided to descend to the Three Continents to find him.

• The Nightmare Evil Lord decided to descend upon the Three Continents, locate Meng You with Nightmare Power, and bring him back, alarming the other eight evil lords.

The Nightmare Evil Lord used the forbidden art Seeking Dreams and Chasing Shadows to reach the Three Continents and find Meng You, accepting that the journey would permanently reduce his power. He attacked the Vast Heaven Holy Land with his Nightmare Realm, but a mysterious force of the Firmament overwhelmed the realm and brought him to his knees.

The Nightmare Evil Lord entered Chu Cheng’s dream and was overwhelmed by Chu Cheng’s imagined creator-god form, causing the Nightmare Realm to collapse. At the Spirit Crane Palace, Chu Xinghe predicted the Nightmare Evil Lord would die that day, and the Evil God’s Bone Flute’s ownership contract vanished immediately.

Vast Heaven Holy Land celebrated what they believed was Xinghe’s Star Divination Art at work, while Xinghe remained baffled about why his words kept coming true.

After the Vast Heaven Holy Land confirmed that the Evil God's Bone Flute had lost its ownership contract, factions across the Three Continents concluded that Chu Xinghe’s Star Divination Art had somehow predicted the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death. Meanwhile, Zang Ling gave up on escaping, and the Evil Lords learned of the Nightmare Evil Lord’s fate when his body suddenly exploded.

• The Nightmare Evil Lord’s body exploded in front of the Evil Lords, and the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord announced that he was dead.

After the Nightmare Evil Lord died instantly upon descending into the Three Continents, the eight remaining Evil Lords struggled to identify what had killed him and feared a hidden power there. They realized the Three Continents already held three Evil God Relics and might be preparing to open the barrier and attack the Evil Shadow Continent.

• The Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord realized the Three Continents already possessed three Evil God Relics and suspected they had lured the Evil Lords into giving them the relics needed to attack the Evil Shadow Continent.

After the Nightmare Evil Lord was instantly killed, the Evil Lords concluded that the Three Continents hid a supreme power and had deliberately gathered Evil God Relics to open a route to the Evil Shadow Continent. They left convinced that their continent was the prey in a scheme and vowed to defend it.

• The Evil Lords learned that the Nightmare Evil Spirits had been wiped out and that the Nightmare Evil Lord had died instantly after descending on the Three Continents.
• The Heart-Devouring Evil Lord argued that a hidden, overwhelmingly powerful being must have killed the Nightmare Evil Lord and that the Three Continents might be plotting to reach the Evil Shadow Continent using three Evil God Relics.
• The Heart-Devouring Evil Lord pointed out that Chu Xinghe had found the Heavenly Secrets Spirit Pillars without destroying them, leading the Evil Lords to suspect his real target had always been the Evil God's Spirit Eye.
• The Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord revealed that an unknown force had broken his master-recognition contract with the Evil God's Spirit Eye, which the Evil Lords took as proof of a supreme power behind Chu Xinghe.
• The Evil Lords concluded that the Three Continents had manipulated them and vowed to protect the Evil Shadow Continent from conquest.

The Evil Lords realized that a supreme expert had been controlling events and that the Evil Spirit Clan faced destruction once the continents merged. The White Spirit Evil Lord argued they still had time to reclaim one Evil God Relic, and the Phantom Evil Lord volunteered An Ying to infiltrate the Vast Heaven Holy Land and steal one.

• The Heart-Devouring Evil Lord concluded that Zang Ling had been controlled by the supreme expert rather than willingly siding with the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
• The Evil Lords traced the expert’s actions and realized the Three Continents already possessed three Evil God Relics, giving the Evil Spirit Clan at most thirty years before the continents merged.
• The White Spirit Evil Lord urged the Evil Lords to reclaim at least one relic before the Four Continents Barrier could be opened.
• The Heart-Devouring Evil Lord warned that sending another fighter could cost them yet another relic, but the White Spirit Evil Lord argued that doing nothing meant certain defeat.
• The Phantom Evil Lord proposed sending An Ying to infiltrate the Vast Heaven Holy Land using the Phantom Evil Spirits’ Thousand Illusions Phantom Art and steal a relic.

The Evil Lords sent An Ying to the Blazing Sun Continent with an Evil God Relic, relying on his disguise skills to steal information and evade detection. After disguising himself as a villager and reaching a town, he was recognized as the Thief Saint at the city gate.

• The Evil Lords chose An Ying to retrieve an Evil God Relic and warned him to take only one and return immediately.
• The Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord concealed An Ying from heavenly secrets, and An Ying entered the passage to the Blazing Sun Continent carrying the disguised Hand of the Evil God.
• An Ying avoided using Evil Spirit power, transformed into a villager, and headed toward a town to gather information about the Three Continents.
• An Ying confidently joined the line at the city gate, certain no one could see through his disguise.
• A guard recognized An Ying as the Thief Saint and ordered the guards to seize him after seeing a wanted notice posted nearby.

An Ying transformed into Zhang Daquan and entered Jujube City, where guards arrested and humiliated him for a string of petty thefts. He suppressed his Evil Spirit power to protect his mission, but the guards locked him in a cell with Shen Laowu, who immediately threatened to dote on him.

• An Ying saw Zhang Daquan's wanted notice and realized the identity he had transformed into was wanted throughout the city.
• An Ying refrained from using his Evil Spirit power as guards seized him, and the captain listed Zhang Daquan's numerous thefts to the crowd.
• The townspeople spat at An Ying, and guards beat and escorted him to the city jail while he endured the humiliation to protect his mission.
• The guards decided to lock An Ying in Shen Laowu's cell, expecting the inmate to teach him a lesson.
• Shen Laowu greeted An Ying from the darkness and said he wanted to dote on him.

An Ying escaped Cell Five in mouse form after enduring Shen Laowu’s abuse, but a search mistakenly recaptured Zhang Daquan instead. Meanwhile, Chu Xinghe’s prediction that the Spirit Crane Palace would suffer losses coincided with an explosion in the Medicine King Palace, where Mu Bai revealed he had been testing how much he could cut costs by substituting cheap herbs.

• An Ying endured Shen Laowu and his underlings in Cell Five because he feared exposing his Evil Spirit power and losing the chance to become the Holy Son of Evil Spirits.
• An Ying turned into a mouse and hid in the cell, but guards later mistook Zhang Daquan for the escaped prisoner and beat him before sending him to Shen Laowu for questioning.
• Chu Xinghe wondered whether he could make his words come true and predicted that the Spirit Crane Palace would suffer losses.
• An explosion in the Medicine King Palace’s pill-refining room delighted Chu Xinghe, who reassured Mu Bai and promised to provide replacement furnaces.
• Mu Bai told Chu Xinghe that he had tried replacing heavenly treasures with cheap medicinal herbs and had learned that he could cut costs by only eighty percent, not ninety.

Mu Bai revealed that the Muyue Kingdom had cut pill-making costs by replacing most expensive ingredients with cheap herbs, leaving Chu Xinghe aghast at their success. Chu Xinghe then went to the Azure Wood Palace, still intent on finding out how the Nightmare Evil Lord had died.

• Mu Bai explained that the Muyue Kingdom had replaced eighty percent of its costly pill ingredients with low-quality herbs and had saved nearly eighty percent of its costs, though an attempt to replace the rest had caused a furnace to explode.
• Chu Xinghe realized Mu Bai’s supposed modesty concealed another major success and lamented that the Star Divination Art’s predictions had failed him again.
• Chu Xinghe entered the Azure Wood Palace, where the disciples treated him respectfully and refrained from their former teasing because they saw him as the Holy Land’s representative.
• The Grand Elder’s teachings had led Ma Liang to stop imitating Zheng Yu’s imposing manner and instead follow Chu Xinghe’s example of leading through service and trust.
• Chu Xinghe resolved to pursue the truth about the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death, fearing that seventy-eight Dark Moon Evil Lords would rise in its place.

After the Nightmare Evil Lord died, the Dark Moon Clan gained the Evil God's Bone Flute’s unlocked secret arts, and the grand elder decided they should open the wealthy Evil Shadow Continent. Chu Xinghe brought the flute to Feng Yuzheng to learn where the Nightmare Evil Lord had died, while hoping to delay the Dark Moon Clan’s cultivation; Feng Yuzheng agreed to investigate.

• The grand elder discovered that the Evil God's Bone Flute contained the Nightmare Evil Spirits’ secret arts and gave it to the Great Sage, then resolved to open the Evil Shadow Continent for the Dark Moon Clan.
• Chu Xinghe grew baffled by the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death and went to the Azure Wood Palace to ask Feng Yuzheng where it had happened.
• Feng Yuzheng told Chu Xinghe that his research was progressing and hinted that he would soon have a surprise, making Chu Xinghe wary.
• Chu Xinghe took the Evil God's Bone Flute from the grand elder and brought it to Feng Yuzheng, partly to investigate the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death and partly to delay the Dark Moon Clan’s training.
• Feng Yuzheng examined the flute but said he could not comprehend anything from it, then agreed to use its traces to deduce where the Nightmare Evil Lord had died.

Feng Yuzheng used the Evil God's Bone Flute to trace the Nightmare Evil Lord's final movements and discovered he had died in the Haotian Mountain Range. He and Chu Xinghe found more than a hundred peerless-grade treasures the Nightmare Evil Lord had dropped, while the Great Elder mistook Xinghe's investigation for a display of Star Divination.

• Feng Yuzheng used the Method of Tracing Origins on the Evil God's Bone Flute and found traces leading to the Three Continents.

After Feng Yuzheng followed Chu Xinghe’s instructions to find where the Nightmare Evil Lord had died, the Vast Heaven Holy Land uncovered an enormous hoard of treasures and Blood Spirit Stones in the Haotian Mountain Range. The Grand Elder praised Xinghe for arranging the discovery, while Xinghe privately despaired at another windfall he could not prevent.

• Feng Yuzheng led the disciples to the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death site, where they unearthed rows of rare treasures across the Haotian Mountain Range.
• Huang Ritian noticed two new peaks and discovered that they were colossal piles of Blood Spirit Stones released from the Nightmare Realm.

• Feng Yuzheng told the Grand Elder that Chu Xinghe had sent him to use the Evil God’s Bone Flute to locate the Nightmare Evil Lord’s death site.
• The Grand Elder celebrated Chu Xinghe’s foresight, while Chu Xinghe silently lamented the vast treasure haul and insisted his tears were only caused by windblown sand.

Chu Xinghe discovered that the Nightmare Evil Lord had died in the Vast Heaven Holy Land and left an enormous haul of treasures scattered across the Haotian Mountain Range, then hid away as the Holy Land prepared for the Evil Shadow Continent’s resources. In Jujube City, An Ying disguised himself as the guard captain and brutally beat Shen Laowu, but was interrupted by a summons from the county magistrate’s wife.

• Elder He theorized that the power of the void killed the Nightmare Evil Lord while he crossed the Four Continents Barrier, and disciples began searching the Haotian Mountain Range for his scattered equipment.
• Chu Xinghe went into seclusion on the ninth floor of the Technique Repository Tower, while the Great Elder grew eager to acquire the Evil Shadow Continent’s resources.
• An Ying, hiding in rat form in a Jujube City cell, watched Zhang Daquan endure torture and refuse to explain how he had escaped.
• After hearing that the guard captain had gone to Yan City, An Ying used the Thousand Illusions Phantom Art to take the captain’s form and returned to the cell.
• An Ying ordered Shen Laowu brought in and whipped him nearly to death before a subordinate reported that the county magistrate’s wife wanted the captain.

An Ying’s disguise as the leader of the guards led him from tormenting Shen Laowu to being trapped and beaten after the county magistrate caught him with his wife. He assured the Evil Lords that his mission was going smoothly, just as Shen Laowu was brought into his cell looking for revenge.

• An Ying went to the county magistrate’s wife’s courtyard in the leader’s disguise and was pulled into her room despite trying to escape.
• The county magistrate returned, caught An Ying with his wife, and ordered the guards to beat him before locking him in a cell.
• An Ying contacted the Evil Lords through the Hand of the Evil God and claimed he was safely gathering information for his mission.
• The White Spirit Evil Lord encouraged An Ying to stay cautious, and An Ying vowed to fulfill their expectations.
• Shen Laowu was brought into An Ying’s cell, demanding to get at him, so An Ying cut off the connection to the Evil Shadow Continent.

An Ying escaped Jujube City, while Vast Heaven Holy Land discovered the complete Divine Engraving Technique among the Nightmare Evil Lord’s treasures. Chu Xinghe realized Feng Yuzheng could use it to continually enhance the sect’s treasures and was left fearing the consequences.

• An Ying killed Shen Laowu, escaped prison, hid in a cesspool, and fled Jujube City disguised as a beggar.
• Feng Yuzheng repeatedly reported the Nightmare Evil Lord’s abundant resources to Chu Xinghe, who tried to convince himself their effects would be temporary.
• Shen Chun summoned Chu Xinghe to the Spirit Crane Palace, where Feng Yuzheng presented an inheritance spirit jade containing the complete Divine Engraving Technique.
• Elder He confirmed the technique could enhance treasures and temporarily grant people additional power without harming them.
• Feng Yuzheng thanked Chu Xinghe and vowed to master the technique and strengthen Vast Heaven Holy Land, while Chu Xinghe feared it would make the Nightmare Evil Lord’s resources effectively renewable.
