• Ouyang Qinxin closed her eyes, chanted an ancient incantation, and released a golden Dharma Idol, startling the gray-robed monster nearby.

Ouyang unleashed a dangerous Dharma Manifestation and the Nine Heavens Soul-Absorbing Melody against the Corpse Demon and surrounding ghosts. After the melody weakened her, the Corpse Demon fled, but Ouyang struck back with lethal sound waves as it summoned its Corpse Bead.

• Lin Xuan carved out a temporary cave abode, gave Yue'er Formation Flags, and went inside with the injured Ouyang Qinxin.

• Yue'er warned Xiao Tao not to insult or harm Lin Xuan, and Xiao Tao agreed while secretly planning to beat him once she recovered her strength.
• Yue'er asked Xiao Tao why Nascent Soul Formation was so difficult despite her rapid cultivation and her past as the Asura King.

Yue'er learned from Xiao Tao that cultivators in the Spirit World could gain more lifespan by surviving increasingly powerful Yuan Qi tribulations, while Yue'er herself had once been ageless and undying. Xiao Tao examined Yue'er's aptitude to discover why forming a Nascent Soul was still so difficult, but the chapter ended before she gave her answer.

• Yue'er asked Xiao Tao why her cultivation was difficult despite her exceptional status as an Asura King.
• Xiao Tao explained that cultivators who survived Yuan Qi tribulations could have their bodies and Nascent Souls tempered and gain additional lifespan.
• Yue'er learned that Yuan Qi tribulations grew stronger each time and could not form in the Human World because its Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was too thin.
• Xiao Tao told Yue'er that she had already broken free from the limits of lifespan in her previous life and did not need to undergo Yuan Qi tribulations.
• Xiao Tao examined Yue'er's aptitude with a spell, then left her embrace without revealing what she had found.

Xiao Tao told Yue'er that the altered Laws of Heaven and Earth had made condensing a Nascent Soul more than a hundred times harder, then recognized the Indeterminate River as Yue'er's former traveling palace. Meanwhile, Lin Xuan gave the gravely injured Ouyang a Nine Heavens Energy Recovery Pill to buy three days and began preparing to suppress her poison.

• Lin Xuan laid Ouyang on a stone bed and removed her outer clothes so he could begin expelling the poison.

Meanwhile, the Luo Family Ancestor revealed that Xuanyuan was an ancient sacrificial altar and prepared to sacrifice the trade fair’s cultivators to open a passage to the Indeterminate River and seek the Asura God Blood.

• Lin Xuan found that the poison in Qin Xin’s meridians resisted treatment, so he used Azure Phantom Nether Fire and true essence to treat her across her body.
• The Luo Family Ancestor told the Luo Family cultivators that Xuanyuan had once been called Yellow Springs and was an altar used every three hundred years for blood sacrifices.

• The Luo Family Ancestor revealed that he intended to sacrifice more than half of the cultivators at the trade fair to open a passage to the Asura King’s Palace, and the group agreed to proceed despite Luo Zishu’s concerns.
• Lin Xuan continued treating Qin Xin, resisting temptation and resolving to save her without taking advantage of her unconscious state.

Lin Xuan suppressed the Heavenly Spider Gu Poison and helped Ouyang Qinxin awaken, but the Nine Heavens Energy Recovery Pill would keep her safe for only three days. Qinxin explained that using the Lesser Luo Heaven Dharma Image had caused her body and Nascent Soul to collapse, leaving Lin Xuan to find a way to stabilize her injuries.

• Lin Xuan understood that using the Dharma Image had caused Qinxin’s injuries and continued searching for a way to stabilize her.

Lin Xuan discovered that Qinxin’s near-fatal injuries came from losing most of her Life Essence and proposed dual cultivation as a way to restore it. Meanwhile, the Luo Family Ancestor began a blood ritual that awakened Yellow Springs City, and at the Sky Cloud Trade Fair Mu Bufan saw Xuanyuan’s buildings come alive.

• Lin Xuan realized that Qinxin had consumed most of her Life Essence and could not recover through ordinary medicine.
• Lin Xuan told Qinxin that dual cultivation might replenish her Life Essence and save her.

• The Sky Cloud Trade Fair drew hundreds of thousands of human and Demon Race cultivators to Xuanyuan.
• Mu Bufan was startled when the ground shook and the surrounding buildings began to come alive.

Buildings in Xuanyuan City came alive and attacked the cultivators, but Hermit Qinglian recognized the Stone Ghost Technique and suspected the Luo Family was behind the disaster. A black pillar then unleashed thousands of ghosts, turning the battle against the humans and demons as Hermit Qinglian summoned blue-green birds wreathed in flame.

• Mu Bufan and the other cultivators saw Xuanyuan City's buildings attack, killing many human and demon cultivators.

Xuanyuan City descended into chaos as ghosts emerged and cultivators fought over treasures, while the Luo Family prepared a blood sacrifice to open the Yellow Springs Altar. Lu Ying'er and Tian Xiaojian chose to flee, but Lin Xuan proposed an intimate method to treat Ouyang Qinxin’s injuries.

• Hermit Qinglian used his Azure Sun Bird treasure to destroy ghosts, then flew toward Xuanyuan Hall to consult the Nine-Headed Ancestor about the Luo Clan’s conspiracy.
• Lu Ying'er ordered Baisuan Pavilion’s group to leave Xuanyuan City rather than risk staying for scattered treasures.
• Meng Ruyan killed a cultivator who tried to kidnap her, while Tian Xiaojian revealed his Nascent Soul power and killed the evil cultivators who targeted him before heading for a city gate.
• The Luo Family Ancestor explained that the deaths of one third of the city’s cultivators would provide the souls needed to open the Yellow Springs Altar, and he told his followers to wait.
• Lin Xuan proposed dual cultivation as the only way he could think of to treat Ouyang Qinxin’s injuries, leaving her flushed with embarrassment.

Lin Xuan reassured Ouyang that he could save her by sharing his life essence, then revealed the full extent of his unusual cultivation and abilities. Elsewhere, a Heavenly Ingenuity Sect cultivator detonated her nascent soul to attack Jiang, while Yue'er learned that her ruined Crystal Palace held a sealed treasure she could now retrieve.

• The Fire Flood Dragon King broke a sword array and burned the Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator and Core Condensation Realm disciples who had attacked him.

The Fire Flood Dragon King killed a gray-robed cultivator, then followed the Luo Family toward Xuanyuan Hall, while Lin Xuan recovered after saving Ouyang Qinxin in a cave along the Indeterminate River. After Lin Xuan emerged, Yue'er reunited with him, and Ouyang asked him to leave so she could speak privately with Yue'er.

• Lin Xuan emerged and embraced Yue'er, while Ouyang watched without jealousy and resolved to treat Yue'er as a dear younger sister.
• Ouyang asked Lin Xuan to leave so she could speak with Yue'er, and Lin Xuan flew away.

The Luo Family Ancestor led his cultivators through Xuanyuan Hall toward the Indeterminate River, wary that Nine-Headed Old Devil was nowhere to be seen. Hidden nearby, Nine-Headed Ancestor and Hermit Qinglian discussed the Luo family's threat, and the chapter ended as Fire Flood Dragon King arrived and spotted them.

• The Luo Family Ancestor entered Xuanyuan Hall with his cultivators and ordered them onward despite his unease at Nine-Headed Old Devil's absence.

At the Indeterminate River, Lin Xuan reunited with Yue'er and Ouyang Qinxin, and the three began looking for a way out.

• The Fire Flood Dragon King learned from Hermit Qinglian that the suspicious cultivators were Luo Clan remnants and agreed to follow the Nine-Headed Ancestor's lead.
