The Demon Gods then sacrificed themselves against the Immortal Court’s Quasi-Sages, leaving the battlefield drenched in blood and the witnesses stunned by the unprecedented losses.

Hongjun discussed his plan to bring down Buzhou Mountain with the Heavenly Dao, while the Heavenly Dao secretly knew Qin Xuan had prepared to thwart it.

• Hongjun explained that he had ignored Guiche’s plea for help and questioned why Bai Ze had so easily defeated Guiche; the Heavenly Dao claimed it did not know and wondered why Bai Ze had pursued him.
• Hongjun searched the Primordial World for Bai Ze but could not detect his aura, leaving him to wonder whether Qin Xuan, Pingxin, or Yang Mei was concealing him.

• Dijun regained his senses and told Duke Dong that they had both been schemed against, beginning when his ten children left the Solar Star; he suspected Jieyin and Zhunti were tied to the plot.

• Yuanshi Tianzun concealed his aura and headed toward Buzhou Mountain, eager to bring it down and take revenge on Qin Xuan and the others.

Duke Dong halted before striking Spirit Mountain after the Heavenly Dao and Earthly Dao each offered him a way to live, then swore allegiance to the Earthly Dao and vowed to deliver the dead in the Underworld.

• Gonggong realized he had sensed deadly danger before the Ancestral Witches stopped him, but suspected that they and Father God had made him spin.
• Yuanshi Tianzun arrived outside Buzhou Mountain and worried that Duke Dong was still alive and Qin Xuan might return before he could act.

Yuanshi Tianzun received Hongjun’s order to attack Buzhou Mountain, but found it protected by a powerful barrier and grew resentful of Pangu’s perceived favoritism.

• The Ancestral Witches erupted into shouting, and Dijiang slapped his own forehead to silence them so Nuwa could continue.

After returning to Buzhou Mountain, Qin Xuan learned how the Ancestral Witches had stopped Gonggong from crashing into the mountain and joined them in making him spin faster. He then gathered the Ancestral Witches to prepare a surprise for the motionless Yuanshi Tianzun, while Nuwa received a separate mission.

Yuanshi Tianzun secretly watched Gonggong spin in a storm and mistook it for a secret cultivation method, then abandoned his plan to destroy Buzhou Mountain. Nuwa’s kick sent him toward the mountain, where the Ancestral Witches revealed the Pangu True Body and trapped him before Qin Xuan and the others summoned Father God.
