• Su Yun led Chai Chuxi through Tianshiyuan and toward the Old No-Man's Land, hoping Doctor Dong could impersonate the Great Emperor.

• Su Yun admitted to Chai Chuxi that he was the Great Emperor of Tianshiyuan who had killed Divine Lord Chai Yundu and stolen the Chai Clan's Immortal Family Treasure.

Su Yun revealed his past to Chai Chuxi, who accepted the truth and helped him plan for the conflict with the Chai Clan.

The Old No-Man's Land then unfolded to reveal the Hanging Coffin Forbidden Land, where Su Yun found the Chai Clan had already suffered heavy losses and set out to reach the cliff first.

• The Old Divine King's corpse briefly rose and warned that an immortal's corpse beneath the Immortal Vine would bring chaos, so Doctor Dong went to investigate the broken seal and disperse his father's obsession.

• Su Yun saw a giant bluish face reflected in shattered coffin fragments, realized it had noticed him, and shouted for everyone to run.

Su Yun and Chai Chuxi escaped a corpse demon and reached a mirror-smooth cliff whose lingering sword power let Su Yun break Immortal Sword Slaying Demon Dragon. The cliff’s invisible sword attacks then trapped the arriving Chai Clan and Doctor Dong’s group, leaving everyone forced to stand still.

• Su Yun used the Yellow Bell and First Immortal Seal to drive the corpse demon back into its pool, where Yingying concluded that the dead Gods and Devils still guarded the place.
• Su Yun, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying reached the cliff and discovered that its Mirror Light carried the remnants of a devastating sword strike.

• Chai Keji and the Chai Clan experts entered the Mirror Light, where invisible sword power shattered several experts and severed Chai Keji’s arm.
• Doctor Dong and the Eight Heavenly Generals arrived, and Su Yun warned them not to move after the Kun Heavenly General’s arm was sliced apart.

Su Yun and the others survived the cliff’s deadly Sword Qi by waiting for sunset, then searched beneath it for a way up. When the Chai family threatened Su Yun and Chai Chuxi, Su Yun used moonlight to trigger the cliff’s killing power against them, leaving only a handful alive before he found the Immortal Vine.

• Su Yun warned everyone not to comprehend the Sword Qi in the cliff, but several Chai family members ignored him and died when their heads burst into Sword Qi.
• After sunset dimmed the cliff’s deadly light, Su Yun and Chai Chuxi searched beneath it while the others waited until they could move safely.
• Chai Shanggu and the Chai family surrounded Su Yun and Chai Chuxi, and Chai Keji admitted they wanted the Imperial Court’s Immortal Dao treasure and demanded that Su Yun lead them to the coffin.
• When Chai Keji threatened Yingying and Chai Chuxi, Su Yun illuminated the cliff with a bright moon, causing its killing light to tear through the Chai family.
• After the Chai family survivors attacked in the darkness and were struck again when the light returned, Su Yun announced that he had found the Immortal Vine.

Su Yun, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying activated the Immortal Vine and climbed toward the cliff top, pursued by the Chai family. Black blood poured from a hanging coffin and unleashed monsters, while Doctor Dong discovered tribulation ash in a drop of black Immortal's Blood.

• Su Yun deciphered the Immortal Vine's runes, causing it to grow, and he, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying climbed toward the cliff top.
• Chai Fuli and the surviving Chai family members followed them up the vine, while Doctor Dong and the Eight Heavenly Generals began climbing below.
• The vine carried Su Yun and several Chai family members through the clouds, but Chai Shanggu's leaf stopped; when he tried to break the surrounding runes, he exploded into blood mist.
• Black blood poured from the hanging coffin, and demonic monsters swarmed the vine, forcing Su Yun and the Chai family to fight them.
• Doctor Dong's group was blocked beneath the clouds, where General Bao fought a monster that Doctor Dong identified as a drop of decayed Immortal's Blood.
• Doctor Dong examined the blood with his Medical Dao Celestial Eye and discovered that it contained tribulation ash.

Doctor Dong realized the hanging coffin likely contained an immortal transformed into a Calamity Ash Monster, while Su Yun and Chai Chuxi fought through the monster horde to reach it. Chai Chuxi collapsed from her injuries, and Su Yun began pushing open the coffin as Chai Fuli attacked.

• Doctor Dong discovered that Immortal's Blood was undergoing Calamity Ash transformation and warned that the hanging coffin might contain an immortal turned into a monster.
• Doctor Dong tested the Immortal Realm Calamity Ash Qi on General Bao's severed arm while the Eight Heavenly Generals remained blocked by the Immortal Dao Runes.
• Su Yun, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying fought through the monsters, and Chai Fuli recognized Su Yun as the Great Emperor of Tianshiyuan and charged after him.
• Su Yun used his Celestial Phenomenon Spirit, the Yellow Bell, the Origin Magnetism Divine Sword, and Chai Yundu's body to clear a path up the Immortal Vine.
• Su Yun and Chai Chuxi reached the hanging coffin, but Chai Chuxi collapsed from her injuries and Yingying entered Su Yun's spirit realm to help her.
• Su Yun pushed the hanging coffin's lid open several zhang with Chai Yundu's body as Chai Fuli rushed to stop him.

Su Yun battled Chai Fuli atop the suspended coffin, using the prayer mat to strengthen his First Immortal Seal, but the Immortal Sword ultimately annihilated Chai Fuli. Su Yun escaped into the coffin as it began closing, and Chai Keji jumped in after him.

• Su Yun used the Demon Slaying Finger and First Immortal Seal against Chai Fuli, but Chai Fuli's Spiritual Nature reassembled and his superior immortal arts overwhelmed Su Yun.
• Su Yun strengthened the First Immortal Seal with the prayer mat's Immortal Qi, and the resulting clash left him badly injured while Chai Fuli's golden body and Spiritual Nature shattered.
• The Immortal Sword annihilated Chai Fuli, then turned toward Su Yun, but Chai Chuxi used Immortal Dao Runes to guide it past him.
• Chai Keji and the other Chai family experts reached the coffin as black blood flowed back inside, and Su Yun rolled into it while Chai Chudong and another expert pursued him.
• As the suspended coffin began to close and the Immortal Vine shrank, Chai Keji jumped inside, and the coffin slammed shut after the last of the black blood entered.

After Chai Chudong revealed that the Chai Clan had come to Tianshiyuan seeking an Immortal Dao treasure, Doctor Dong and the Eight Heavenly Generals captured him and returned below the cliff. Inside the hanging coffin, Su Yun, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying found their Spiritual Natures separated from their bodies, and fled Chai Keji toward the corpse of a Banished Immortal—only to discover countless more immortal corpses ahead.

• Doctor Dong ordered the Eight Heavenly Generals to capture the Chai Clan intruders, and they subdued Chai Chudong while killing the other disciple.
• Chai Chudong told Doctor Dong that the Chai Clan sought an Immortal Family Treasure that attracted Spiritual Natures, possibly hidden in or formed by the hanging coffin.
• Su Yun entered the hanging coffin and discovered that its strange force had separated his Spiritual Nature from his body, as it had Chai Chuxi and Yingying.
• Chai Keji fell into the coffin, and his golden body crumbled when separated from his Spiritual Nature; Su Yun drew its Immortal Light and Immortal Qi into the prayer mat.
• Su Yun, Chai Chuxi, and Yingying fled along a glowing path while fighting Chai Keji, then saw the corpse of a Banished Immortal that Chai Chuxi recognized as belonging to her clan.
• Su Yun saw countless immortal corpses floating beyond the Banished Immortal's body.

Su Yun, Yingying, and Chai Chuxi followed the force drawing their Spiritual Natures along the suspended coffin’s road, searching for the escape route the Old Divine King had used. Doctor Dong discovered that the black Immortal’s Blood came from hundreds of living Immortals, while Immortal corpses began turning toward Su Yun and the others.

• Su Yun and his companions saw countless dead Immortals lining the road and realized they could not return to their bodies or leave the suspended coffin.
• Su Yun reasoned that the Old Divine King had survived by finding a way out along the road, so he continued forward while studying the corpses.
• Chai Chuxi observed that someone controlled the black blood, which had tried to stop them before rushing back when Su Yun opened the coffin.
• Doctor Dong determined that the black Immortal’s Blood remained alive and came from hundreds of Immortals, suggesting the being inside the coffin was not a corpse.
• After Chai Keji shouted that he had found the demon, two Immortal corpses slowly turned their heads toward Su Yun and the others.
