After the elders postponed Cangsang’s punishment, Lu Xueqi told them about the Chat Group connecting countless worlds, leaving them stunned by its members’ power.

• Shuiyue brought Lu Xueqi before True Person Daoxuan and the other peak heads, and Lu Xueqi produced a book titled Zhu Xian.

• Shuiyue redirected the discussion, and Lu Xueqi explained that she had joined a Chat Group connecting the Myriad Heavens and Worlds.

Xiao Zhen confronted the Qingyun Sect over Lu Xueqi revealing the Chat Group, then investigated signs of an anomaly in the Zhu Xian World. He located a group of strangely dressed young people near Qingyun Mountain, and the sect suspected they were linked to the killings at Incense Valley.

• The Qingyun Sect leaders argued over how to deal with the Chat Group until Xiao Zhen appeared in their hall and identified himself as its Group Leader.
• Xiao Zhen explained the Chat Group and how people could join, then warned the sect not to reveal its existence after Lu Xueqi had disclosed too much.

• Xiao Zhen detected a spatial disturbance near Qingyun Mountain and used Clairvoyance to find a group of casually dressed young people at its foot.
• Tian Buyi recognized the location and wondered whether the young people had killed the Incense Valley disciples.

Xiao Zhen learned that the newcomers from another Blue Star treated the Zhu Xian World as a game and had preyed on its people in a previous instance. After capturing the players and searching one man’s memories, he destroyed his soul, while the Qingyun Sect prepared to unite the factions against the threat.

• Xiao Zhen overheard the Azure Fang Squad discussing their previous game instance and their plans for the xianxia world, including their past attacks on women.

• Dao Xuan sent Cang Song to contact the demonic path while the peak masters went to inform the righteous factions.
• Xiao Zhen captured the players, searched a blond-haired man’s memories, learned about Heavenly Dao Game Company and its game instances, and destroyed the man’s soul.

Xiao Zhen confirmed that players could be killed by destroying their souls, exposed the truth of their murderous game worlds, and severed six players from Heavenly Dao Game. Meanwhile, Dao Xuan convened a Righteous-Demonic Grand Assembly at Qingyun Sect to prepare for the Outer Realm Demons, despite opposition from both sides.

• Xiao Zhen forced Ye Tianxing and the other players to test whether they could contact the yellow-haired player, then concluded that destroying players' souls could truly kill them.

Dao Xuan revealed the players’ memories to the sect leaders, who discussed how to fight the invaders. Xiao Zhen investigated Heavenly Dao Game Company on Blue Star while Ye Fan entered the Zhu Xian World to search for players who had gone missing near Qingyun Sect.

• Dao Xuan subdued the gathered factions and had Qingyun Sect disciples project the souls’ memories, revealing the players’ destructive weapons and conduct.
• A monk and a Ghost King Sect figure proposed killing or torturing the players to stop them from returning.
• Xiao Zhen searched Heavenly Dao Game Company and learned from its hypnotized general manager that its owner was Ye Fan.
• Ye Fan explored the Zhu Xian World with his maid Shuang'er and learned that seven players had become unable to log out.
• Ye Fan used his Myriad Worlds Game System to search for the missing players, then rode with Shuang'er toward Qingyun Sect after tracing their last known location there.

Ye Fan discovered that players were being killed for real after invading the Zhu Xian World, and he forcibly logged them out as their deaths sparked a crisis on Blue Star. He returned to Blue Star to face furious officials demanding that he wake the players who had fallen into comas.

• Ye Fan used his system to inspect missing players and saw Butcher's squad massacre villagers in Huangshan Village for Points.
• Lin Jingyu, Zhang Xiaofan, and other Qingyun Sect cultivators attacked Butcher's squad, and a flying sword killed Butcher while a throwing knife destroyed his soul.
• Ye Fan realized that cultivators could kill players permanently and began forcibly logging them out, but nearly a hundred players had already died.
• On Blue Star, the players whose souls had been erased became vegetative, their families reported the deaths, and a crowd gathered outside Heavenly Dao Game Company.
• Ye Fan returned to Blue Star, answered a nonstop phone call, and heard an official demand that he wake the players who had fallen into deep sleep.

After the Zhu Xian World’s cultivators defeated the players, Ye Fan tried to manage the fallout by claiming trapped players could only be rescued by clearing the game and offering rewards to recruit more participants. Meanwhile, Xiao Zhen prepared to trap the Game System’s operators while letting the players continue causing trouble in the Zhu Xian World.

• The Zhu Xian World’s sect leaders shared and examined the players’ weapons, and Zeng Shushu praised the power of an AK-47.
• Ye Fan told reporters that trapped players’ consciousnesses were inside the game and that they could only be rescued by clearing the instance.
• Ye Fan rejected hacking as a way to save the players and promised generous rewards to anyone who helped clear the game.
• Ye Fan privately planned to unlock powerful weapons for the players and use them as cannon fodder to conquer the Zhu Xian World.
• Xiao Zhen began setting barriers to seal off the Game System’s world, but planned to let the players wreak havoc first to fulfill his agreement with the Qingyun Sect and other major forces.

Ye Fan paid players to enter the game and sent them into the world, where military forces attacked Tianyin Temple during a banquet at Qingyun Sect. As the monks rushed to defend Mount Sumeru, captured monk Fayun told the military that his people saw the players as invading enemies from another world.

• Ye Fan offered players subsidies for entering the game, raising the number willing to log in to 1.5 million, and assigned them a spawn point.
• At Qingyun Sect's banquet, a Demon-Subduing Pestle delivered a message that Outer Realm Demons were attacking Mount Sumeru, so the gathered factions set out to reinforce Tianyin Temple.
• Military forces bombarded Mount Sumeru's golden barrier while Tianyin Temple's monks poured spiritual power into it to hold the formation.
• Soldiers brought the military commanders the wounded young monk Fayun, whom they had captured after he attacked them.
• Fayun told the chief of staff that his master had described the players as invaders who repeatedly revived after death, and estimated that his world had existed for tens of thousands of years.

The military’s assault on Tianyin Temple revealed that local cultivators could destroy players’ souls, prompting the chief of staff to order a retreat. As players continued massacring civilians, Xiao Zhen began a public livestream judgment of Ye Fan, whose system failed to teleport him away.

• The military breached Tianyin Temple’s defenses with rocket fire, and Abbot Puhong charged the invading players in fury.
• After seeing soldiers die in the game and learning their souls could be destroyed, the chief of staff ordered the fighting personnel to log out and found that some had become vegetative.

• Lu Xueqi showed Xiao Zhen images of the massacres, and Xiao Zhen activated the Adventure System’s livestream to expose Ye Fan.
• Xiao Zhen flew to Heavenly Dao Game Company’s headquarters and announced a judgment against Ye Fan, who failed to teleport away when his system was suppressed.

Xiao Zhen interrogated Ye Fan as the Adventure System suppressed the Game System, forcing Ye Fan to confess that he had sent players to real worlds where they slaughtered residents. With the Game System fully suppressed, Ye Fan lost his power and lay helpless on the floor.

• Xiao Zhen began questioning Ye Fan about causing more than a billion deaths while the Adventure System infiltrated the Game System.
• Xiao Zhen showed footage of Ye Fan's previous life and used Spiritual Power to make him admit he had transmigrated and received a system.
• Ye Fan confessed that his Game System sent players to other worlds, where they killed real people while he collected rewards without paying a price.
• Ye Fan blamed the players for the slaughter, then realized he could control himself again and collapsed after Xiao Zhen revealed he had accepted payment from Zhu Xian World's sects.
• The Game System was completely suppressed, and Ye Fan lost his system and lay sprawled on the floor.

Xiao Zhen defeated Ye Fan, exposed the players’ crimes on Blue Star, and returned to the Zhu Xian World to claim rewards. Lu Xueqi stayed behind with the Immortal Slaying Sword and unexpectedly became the highest-ranking figure in a new alliance formed by the major factions.

• Xiao Zhen used the Adventure System to publish the players’ identities and crimes on an almost impossible-to-remove website, causing one player’s family to discover his atrocities.
• Xiao Zhen handed Ye Fan over to the major factions of the Zhu Xian World and collected the Immortal Slaying Sword and other promised treasures.
