Recaps

Chu Xinghe and the Vast Heaven Sect exploit the Demon Race’s failed efforts to repair the passage, then stop the Demon God Avatar from invading the Blazing Sun Continent. After the Demon Star Continent joins the Blazing Sun Continent, Chu Xinghe returns to the sect as the Demon clans begin aligning themselves with it.

• Ling Mou repeatedly repaired star chart fragments, but Elder He used the Haotian Mirror to find and destroy them, sending most of the Demon Race’s resources through the passage to the Blazing Sun Continent.
• Yuan Zheng ordered Demon Race experts to use Secret Art: Withering against the humans disrupting the repairs, but the Great Sage and others turned the curses’ power into breakthroughs.

• Chu Xinghe briefly reached the Mystic God realm, drove the avatar back with the Vast Heaven Sword, reclaimed the misfortune within it, and sent the ghosts back to Ghost Valley before collapsing.
• Gu Mingchao absorbed the avatar’s remaining Mystic God power and advanced to the Mystic God realm, then carried the sect through the passage to find Chu Xinghe recovering.
• After Chu Xinghe’s human identity was revealed, the Fox, Snake, Wolf, and other Demon clans claimed human ancestry and pledged allegiance, while Gu Mingchao crushed the Ice Soul Clan.
• The two continents joined, Chu Xinghe returned to the Vast Heaven Sect, and She Meng, She Kui, and Xiong Feng took positions there as the sect tightened its security and Ming Han guided Demon leaders on a tour.

Chu Xinghe helped the Divine Wood Clan restore its ruined spirit fields, bringing it into the Vast Heaven Sect and leading to a free cultivation offer that drew pledges from rival factions. As he tried to make Divine Fox Ridge’s development fail, Wang Tieniu discovered blood spirit stones there, while Yuan Ying’s unintended gift left the sect prospering and Chu Xinghe’s cultivation rising.

• Ming Han’s Demon Race delegation toured the Vast Heaven Sect, and Mu Ran asked the Grand Elder to help revive the Divine Wood Clan’s ruined spirit fields.
• Chu Xinghe refused Mu Ran’s offer to share the harvest, promised to restore the fields, and led Muyue Kingdom’s disciples to the Divine Wood Clan.
• Mu Bai and the disciples planted increasingly valuable seeds and herbs, but everything withered until Mu Bai buried Mu Ran and used Muyue Kingdom’s secret technique to grow him into a tree that restored the fields.

• Chu Xinghe sent Qin Xiangqian and Wang Tieniu to search Divine Fox Ridge, while the ten great sects bought up the Horse Clan’s land in hopes of finding nearby mineral veins.
• Yuan Ying contaminated the underground river, and Wang Tieniu’s Spirit Domain Technique revealed that it had turned useless ore into blood spirit stones, which Yuan Ying’s token called a gift for Chu Xinghe.
• The Fox Clan mistook Yuan Ying’s gift as proof that Chu Xinghe had won him over, Zheng Yu found blood spirit stones near Martial Emperor City, and Chu Xinghe’s cultivation rose from the Seventh Rank to the Eighth Rank.

Chu Xinghe tried to turn the Fox Clan’s mining and charm breakthroughs, the Demonic Sect’s schemes, and Ghost Valley’s failing seal into opportunities to waste resources. The arc left him with White Tiger’s agreement to restore Ghost Valley’s formation after he presented the Beast God’s command.

• Zheng Yu secured a second Blood Spirit Stone vein for Martial Emperor City, while Ji Moran faced blame for selling the Horse Clan’s territory and Yuan Ying was branded a traitor by the Ape Clan.
• Chu Xinghe assigned the Divine Fox Ridge mine to the Fox Clan and taught them Tieniu’s Mining Technique, but the foxes struggled until Wan Lin taught them the Art of Charm and they rapidly mastered both skills.

• White Tiger and the other Sacred Beasts accepted Blood Spirit Stones and promised future aid, but White Tiger refused to leave until Chu Xinghe presented the Beast God’s decree, after which he agreed to restore Ghost Valley’s formation.

Chu Xinghe’s efforts to repair Ghost Valley, honor Hu Wenhai’s family, and support humble disciples strengthened the Vast Heaven Sect while repeatedly producing unexpected gains. The arc ends with his poison pills becoming a major trade success and Martial Emperor City regretting that it ignored Zheng Yu’s advice.

• Chu Xinghe gave White Tiger the resources to repair Ghost Valley, and Ma Liang surrendered the Fengdu Token to serve as its formation foundation.
• Ma Liang gained control of Ghost Valley’s ghosts through the Soul-Devouring Banner and Fengdu Token, while Chu Xinghe’s brief rise to Martial God was reversed by the Misfortune Compass.
• White Tiger became trapped by the overloaded Four Holy Beasts Grand Formation and began teaching formations at the Vast Heaven Sect, joined by the Formation Spirit Clan.
