• Primordial Demon Lord sensed the Two Sages weakening and launched a decisive God Slaying Spear strike that trapped their karmic paths of escape.
• Just before the spear reached the Sages, Primordial Demon Lord froze as Luohu's Remnant Soul attacked Yuanshi's consciousness and revealed its plan to seize his body.
• Luohu's blood threads began pulling Yuanshi's Nascent Soul into darkness, and Primordial Demon Lord convulsed as Zhunti Daoist and Daoist Jieyin realized they had narrowly escaped death.

Primordial Lord of Heaven fought Luohu for control of his body, while Zhunti and Jieyin attacked him and the demon generals at Mount Sumeru. Just as Yuanshi prepared to detonate his power and destroy them all, a Taiji Diagram descended and separated Yuanshi from the Two Sages of the West.

• A sigh sounded, and a Taiji Diagram descended from the heavens, forcibly separating Yuanshi, Zhunti, and Jieyin.

Grand Pure Laozi and Sect Master Tongtian intervened to stop Zhunti Daoist and Daoist Jieyin from killing Yuanshi, then took him away under the Taiji Diagram’s seal. Yuanshi resisted Laozi’s offer of a new life free from the Heavenly Dao and demonic path, and the brothers left Mount Sumeru with him sealed.

• Laozi and Tongtian took the sealed Yuanshi away from Mount Sumeru, leaving Zhunti and Jieyin amid the Western Sect’s devastation.

After Yuanshi was taken to Shouyang Mountain and offered a chance to abandon demonic cultivation and join the Human Path, Zhunti and Jieyin appealed to Hongjun, warning that all Three Pure Ones might turn away from the Heavenly Dao. Hongjun declared that Yuanshi must not enter the Human Path, while Laozi sensed that a new conflict was brewing.

• Zhunti and Jieyin lamented the destruction of Mount Sumeru, unaware that Guangchengzi and the other Twelve Demon Generals revived and escaped into the wilderness.
• At Eight Views Palace, Laozi and Tongtian urged Yuanshi to purge his demonic cultivation and join the Human Path, but Yuanshi resisted and was left sealed in the chamber to decide.

• Tongtian's sword intent locked onto the Buddhist trio, so Pharmacist Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, and Daoist Randeng fled back toward the West.
• Primordial Lord of Heaven shuddered in his sleep on Shouyang Mountain, and a golden-flecked tear fell from his face.

After the Chan Sect’s twelve True Immortals were killed, Yuanshi’s grief and Luohu’s influence pushed him toward demonhood. Hongjun appeared to take Yuanshi away, and Laozi and Tongtian fought back as Yuanshi began devouring Luohu.

The attack began unraveling the Primordial Wilderness, leaving Hongjun desperate to halt its collapse and forcing Tongtian and Taiqing to oppose Yuanshi (Luohu).

• Hongjun used Heavenly Dao restrictions and attacks to weaken Luohu, while Luohu fought back with demonic laws and accused Hongjun of controlling the Primordial Wilderness for his own ends.
