Wang Changsheng met Tian Jiong, a Core Formation cultivator who practiced one of the Townsea Sect’s lost techniques, and learned the two families shared ties to the sect.

• Tian Jiong said the Sun Moon Palace might still hunt Townsea Sect disciples because the Townsea Cauldron countered its Sun Moon Wheel.
• Wang Changsheng asked Tian Jiong and Purple Moon Fairy to help him hunt a Tier 3 thunder-attributed demon beast, and Purple Moon Fairy asked whether he planned to refine a magic treasure.

Wang Changsheng joined Tian Jiong and Tian Qing'er on a journey to the dangerous Myriad Demon Sea Region to hunt for a Thunder Attribute Demon Core. Meanwhile, Wang Tianqi investigated suspicious purchases made by Ye Xiaoyong and ordered her Intelligence Hall to monitor him.

• Wang Changsheng offered Tian Jiong the rest of a Tier 3 Demon Beast and additional compensation in exchange for its Thunder Attribute Inner Core, and Tian Jiong proposed they hunt together in the Myriad Demon Sea Region.

• Wang Tianqi ordered fifteen Qi Refining Cultivators to take turns monitoring Ye Xiaoyong and recording his movements.

Wang Changsheng, Tian Jiong, and Purple Moon Fairy arrived at Myriad Immortals City to buy a Thunder Attribute Third Order Demon Core, but learned that the Multi-Treasure Palace had none available and that a suitable one might take years to obtain.

• Wang Tianqi told Wang Qiufeng that the Ye Family had secretly visited a hidden reef and had grown wealthy, suggesting that they had discovered a cultivation resource.

The Wang Family discovered that the Ye Family's hidden reef held a Spirit Clam Mine and launched a covert attack to seize it and erase witnesses. As demon beasts attacked Octopus Island, Ye Xiang'an realized the mine had been exposed and sent Ye Wenbo away with some clansmen and Spirit Shells to preserve the family line.

• Wang Qiufeng ordered Zhao Zheng and Wang Qiuyan to investigate the reef and destroy the Ye Family without involving Seventh Uncle.

Ghost-Masked cultivators used Demon Beasts to wipe out the Ye Family on its island, while Ye Xiang'an's escape plan failed to save him.

• Wang Changsheng rejected Tian Jiong's offer of help and continued fighting the black-robed Half-Demon with his Magic Treasures.
• Wang Changsheng sent a Blue Lightning Python from the Ruyi Profound Jade Staff toward the black-robed Half-Demon.

Elsewhere, attacks on islands heightened tensions between Yellow Dragon Island and the Cold Flame Sect, while Taiyi Immortal Sect secretly admitted to arranging them to foment chaos and gain resources.

The Wang Family’s stronghold was destroyed, and Wang Qingshan and Wang Qingqing fled after using powerful escape treasures. Ye Lang secretly released Wang Qingqing, while the attackers pursued Wang Qingshan and vowed to eliminate him.

• An Azure Giant Hand destroyed the Teleportation Array as Ye Lang chased Wang Qingqing, while Ye Lin and Wang Qingshan faced the Azure-robed old man and his allies.
• Ye Lin escaped, and Wang Qingshan used the Jade Green Small Sword Ornament to destroy the attackers’ treasures before fleeing with a Tier 3 Escape Talisman, despite being wounded.

Wang Mingren weighed his feelings for Ximen Feng against his ambition to advance along the Dao Path, then agreed to marry Chen Xiang'er for the support her grandfather could provide. Meanwhile, Wang Changsheng, Tian Jiong, and Purple Moon Fairy fought a Rank 3 Mid-Grade Silver Shark on a Nameless Wasteland Island.

• Xu Zihua urged Wang Mingren to marry Chen Xiang'er, the great-granddaughter of Deputy Peak Master Chen Haibin.

• Wang Mingren returned to Xu Zihua the next morning and agreed to the match.
• On a Nameless Wasteland Island, Purple Moon Fairy maintained a Blue Light Screen that trapped a Silver Shark while Wang Changsheng and Tian Jiong attacked it.
