Arc 7The Return to Ruins
Li Fan uncovered the danger posed by the failing Guixu seal, ended the Dragon-Phoenix war, and organized the gods to contain eruptions at its four entrances. After the crisis produced new origins and the clans began rebuilding, Hongjun and Luohu prepared for their struggle over the Immortal Dao and Demon Realm.
- Li Fan negotiated punishment for the Twenty-Eight Mansions, then warned the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin leaders that the Return to Ruins threatened their domains as well as the world.
- Li Fan and his allies discovered that the Guixu sealing array was failing, while the three clans prepared for war and Luohu attacked Hongjun with the God Slaying Spear.
- Li Fan mediated the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, assigning the clans new territories, and broke through to the Sub-Saint realm with the Thirty-Six Sea-Calming Divine Pearls.
- Li Fan convened the Grand Unity Assembly and announced that the Return to Ruins would emerge, directing the gods and clans to prepare to suppress its entrances and relocate their people.
- Li Fan and the Zhou Tian Star Array shattered the Guixu seal, and the gods fought to contain the Return to Ruins at the East Sea, Immortal Volcano, and Kunlun Ruins.
- The Return to Ruins erupted, releasing origins that Li Fan, Nuwa, Hongjun, Ancestor Dragon, Yuanfeng, and other great powers claimed, while Li Fan warned Ancestor Dragon to keep the Dragon Clan out of the coming tribulation.
- The clans rebuilt after the Calamity ended, and Hongjun proposed spreading the Immortal Dao through a new Mystical Sect as Luohu secretly spread Demonic Dao inheritances.
- Li Fan warned his companions that Hongjun served the Heavenly Dao in its struggle with the Demon Realm, while Hongjun broke with Yinyang and Qiankun and Li Fan weighed whether to intervene.
