Lu Changsheng gained three Substitute Death Dolls by giving Curse Dolls to Xu Jing, while news of the Demon Realm’s invasion and widespread devastation forced the Immortal Realm’s powers to make plans. As Xia Ningxue asked whether he would return to Taihua Mountain, Taichu Mountain shook, and everyone learned the disturbance came from the forbidden Primordial Ancient Mine.

• The Second Ancestor ordered Elders and disciples from the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands to investigate the tremors.
• Lu Changsheng agreed to help after Shi Niandao and Zhu Xinguang also volunteered, and Xia Ningxue joined the expedition with the Moon Palace group.
• The investigators entered the mine, where the Exiled Sword Immortal warned them about Primordial Era Demon Beasts, magma, and dangerous Spirit Fires.
• Taihua Sacred Ground split into three teams, and Lu Changsheng's group found a riverbed scattered with Eighteenth Grade Star River Sand.

Lu Changsheng and his group explored a dangerously hot tunnel in the Primordial Ancient Mine, where they discovered a Twentieth-Grade Spirit Fire. The Exiled Sword Immortal wondered whether the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame was causing the mine’s disturbance.

• The Exiled Sword Immortal explained that the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands left some rare ores, including fire phoenix emperor gold, in the mine so they could replenish.
• Lu Changsheng handed out Falling Ice Talismans to protect the group from the increasing heat and received a Ten Thousand Li Glacier Talisman from the system as a return reward for Yun Qianyue.
• As the heat intensified and the talismans began to fail, Lu Changsheng sent the Immortal Emperor Realm Elders back and continued with his disciples and the Exiled Sword Immortal.
• After making their way deeper through magma and fire poison, the group found a crystalline purple tree in a vast magma pool.
• Yun Qianyue identified the tree as the illusory form of the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, and the Exiled Sword Immortal wondered if the Spirit Fire was behind the mine’s disturbance.

Lu Changsheng realized the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame was not the source of the disturbances and drew the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python out of the magma. After the Exiled Sword Immortal sent a distress message, the Taiyi Holy Land received it, but Senior Brother Xi chose to continue investigating instead of going to help.

• The Exiled Sword Immortal tried to capture the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame and asked Lu Changsheng to help, but Lu Changsheng directed his Forty-Nine Battle Swords into the magma lake.
• Lu Changsheng warned everyone that something was rising, and a Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python emerged from the magma.
• The Exiled Sword Immortal recognized the python as a Primordial Era Behemoth and realized it was likely responsible for the disturbance in the Primordial Ancient Mine.
• Lu Changsheng urged the Exiled Sword Immortal to send a distress message, and the python fixed its gaze on their group.
• The Taiyi Holy Land team received the message, but Senior Brother Xi ordered them to continue investigating rather than go to the group's aid.

Lu Changsheng and his allies struggled against the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, whose Demonic Fire overwhelmed their attacks and grew stronger after it swallowed the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame. A system reward gave Lu Changsheng an Eternal Ages Extreme Ice Talisman, which froze the mine and trapped most of the beast as he prepared to shoot it.

• Lu Changsheng, the Exiled Sword Immortal, and their allies attacked the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, but its Demonic Fire broke their defenses and injured Lu Qinglian, Xiao Fan, and Lu Changsheng.

• Lu Changsheng bestowed Falling Ice Talismans on his disciples, and the system rewarded him with a Twenty-First-Grade Eternal Ages Extreme Ice Talisman.
• Lu Changsheng used the Eternal Ages Extreme Ice Talisman to freeze the mine and trap most of the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, then aimed the Nine-Dragon Bow and God-Extinguishing Arrow at it.

Lu Changsheng and the others killed the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, claimed its Demon Core, and traded for the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame. When a distress call revealed that Xikong’s team had encountered a mass of black mist, Lu Changsheng realized the mine’s tremors had a more dangerous cause and warned that rushing in would lead to their deaths.

• The Exiled Sword Immortal, Zhao Yu, Lu Qinglian, and the others joined Lu Changsheng in killing the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, and Lu Changsheng extracted its Demon Core.
• Zhao Yu captured the fleeing Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, then traded it to Lu Changsheng for Immortal Pills.
• Xia Ningxue arrived with Zi Ling and the Guanghan Holy Land’s Elders, while Lu Qinglian ate the python’s meat and stored the rest.
• Lu Changsheng suspected the python was not responsible for the mine’s tremors, and a voice transmission reported that Xikong’s team was nearly wiped out by a mass of black mist.
• Lu Changsheng’s simulation showed that their group would perish if they rushed to help, so he told the Exiled Sword Immortal to ask the Third Ancestor or Second Ancestor to intervene.

Lu Changsheng and the other Sacred Lands tracked the Primordial Evil Spirit into an unknown cavern beneath the Primordial Ancient Mine, where it had entered a Cold Pool. The Evil Spirit suddenly emerged possessing a Taichu Sacred Land disciple and confronted Lu Changsheng.

• Qi Pojun entered the Primordial Ancient Mine with the Exiled Sword Immortal after learning the source of the disturbance.
• Xikong told the gathered Sacred Lands that an unknown being had possessed a Taichu Sacred Land disciple and nearly killed his group; Lu Changsheng and Daoist Tuquan recognized the Evil Qi as belonging to the Primordial Evil Spirit.

• Lu Changsheng's group discovered an unknown passage leading to a vast cavern and a Cold Pool, where Lu Changsheng sensed the Evil Spirit's trail had ended.
• A column of water erupted from the Cold Pool, and the Evil Spirit, possessing a Taichu Sacred Land disciple, emerged and recognized Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng stalled the Primordial Evil Spirit until Qi Pojun arrived and attacked him. The Primordial Evil Spirit raised a Bronze Immortal Hall from the Cold Pool to withstand Qi Pojun's sword strikes, and the battle continued as the underground space began to collapse.

• Lu Changsheng guessed that the Primordial Evil Spirit had hidden a cache in the Primordial Ancient Mine, and the spirit revealed that he had already retrieved what he came for.

• Lu Changsheng warned Qi Pojun that the Primordial Evil Spirit could not sustain the Bronze Immortal Hall, and Qi Pojun struck it three more times, destroying much of the Cold Pool and collapsing the underground space.

After Qi Pojun failed to destroy the escaped Primordial Evil Spirit, Lu Changsheng found valuable ores exposed in the ruined cavern and arranged to trade for them. He collected the Primordial Crystal and gave the Eternal Cold Stone to Xia Ningxue, while planning to obtain more ores at Taichu Mountain.

• Qi Pojun explained that the Primordial Evil Spirit had escaped through space with the Bronze Immortal Hall, and the group decided to address the invasion of the Demon Realm and Yao Realm first.
• The collapsed cavern revealed hundreds of pieces of Primordial Crystal, and an ancestor of the Guanghan Holy Land discovered an Eternal Cold Stone that Zhao Yu suspected had hidden the Bronze Immortal Hall.
• Lu Changsheng asked Qi Pojun to trade him the Primordial Crystal, Eternal Cold Stone, and other ores from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
• Lu Changsheng offered a Space Ring full of valuable treasures, and Qi Pojun agreed that the trade was fair.
• Lu Changsheng collected the Primordial Crystal into his Inner World and gave the Eternal Cold Stone to Xia Ningxue, planning to request the other ores at Taichu Mountain.

Lu Changsheng entered Taichu Sacred Land’s treasure vault and selected several hundred ancient ores in exchange for treasures. He left planning to reward his disciples with the ores and hoping the system would return valuable rewards, while eyeing the vault’s most precious stones for a future trade.

• The Taichu Sacred Land Elder brought Lu Changsheng to the treasure vault, where Li Gong and Wan Po allowed him to enter.
• Lu Changsheng surveyed the vault’s rare ores and learned he could choose anything below the topmost levels up to the value of the treasures he had offered.
• Lu Changsheng selected several hundred ancient ores, including Dragon Tooth Stone, an Azure Sea Condensing Pearl, and other rare materials.

• Lu Changsheng left the vault while thinking about finding a way to trade for the precious ores on its topmost level.

Lu Changsheng used Primordial Crystals to strengthen his cultivation and repeatedly bestowed them on his disciples, but the system returned no rewards. As the conflict spread across the Immortal Realm and demonic sects threatened Taihua Sacred Ground, he continued bestowing crystals on his disciples fifteen days later.

• Lu Changsheng refined a Primordial Crystal and strengthened his foundation, but decided to save most of his crystals while testing whether bestowing them would earn system rewards.

• Fifteen days later, Lu Changsheng summoned his disciples and bestowed a Primordial Crystal on each of them.

Lu Changsheng received a Five-Colored Divine Stone as a return reward and used the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame and Azure Emperor Cauldron to begin refining it, but its Primordial One Qi nearly overwhelmed him. Meanwhile, Daoist Xingjian saw Blood Sea Hall forces driving tens of thousands of commoners into occupied Sage-Proving Mountain.

• Lu Changsheng received a Five-Colored Divine Stone after rewarding Shen Xiaoyao with Primordial Crystal and realized it held vast Primordial Spiritual Qi and Five-Colored Radiance.
• Lu Changsheng failed to refine the stone with the Azure Emperor Cauldron alone, so he subdued the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame and used it to break down the stone.
• Lu Changsheng absorbed a small amount of Primordial One Qi, nearly burst from its purity, and let the Azure Emperor Cauldron and his other treasures absorb some of the excess.

• Daoist Xingjian flew over Sage-Proving Mountain on an intelligence mission and saw Blood Sea Hall disciples driving tens of thousands of commoners toward the mountain.

Daoist Xingjian discovered Blood Sea Hall had captured mortals and taken a hundred thousand young children to Sage-Proving Mountain, so he attacked the stronghold but was struck down by its powerful Demon. At Taihua Sacred Ground, Qingyangzi sought help for his missing disciple, and Lin Xuanshuang volunteered to investigate.

• Blood Sea Hall captured mortals, killed those who resisted, and took a hundred thousand virgin boys and girls to Sage-Proving Mountain while guarding the remaining captives.

Lu Changsheng survived a fatal strike with a Substitute Death Doll, while Shi Niandao and Zhu Xinguang were buried beneath Blood Infant Patriarch’s demonic palm.
