• Zhunti disguised himself as a demon cultivator, slipped into the Sun Palace, and falsely claimed that the Witch Clan had robbed him.
• The ten Golden Crows believed Zhunti's story, promised to avenge him, and followed him out of the Sun Palace.

Zhunti concealed the heavenly secrets as the ten Golden Crows ravaged the Primordial Continent, killing Kuafu and countless living beings. Hou Yi pursued them with the Sun-Shooting Bow and had already slain two Golden Crows when the chapter ended.

• The ten Golden Crows’ Solar True Fire scorched the land and killed countless beings, while Karma accumulated and the Demon Clan’s providence fell.

• Hou Yi learned of Kuafu’s death and the destruction of Witch Clan tribes, then set out with his Sun-Shooting Bow.
• The ten Golden Crows stayed to confront Hou Yi, but he shot the eldest and another Golden Crow dead as the rest fled.

• Hou Yi shot down the Golden Crows until Di Jun and Xi He arrived and saw that only the Ninth and Tenth remained.

• Hou Yi became Wu Gang, endlessly chopping at the Moon Laurel, while his longing for Chang’e became a Jade Rabbit that joined her in Guanghan Palace.

• Di Jun, Taiyi, Kunpeng, Xi He, and Fuxi severed their Self-Corpses and reached the Late Quasi-Saint realm before advancing toward Quasi-Saint Peak.

• Dijiang led the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Witch Thirteen against Di Jun, Taiyi, Fuxi, and Kunpeng, while the Grand Formation of the Stars clashed with the Twelve Celestial Gods and Demons Formation.
• The two formations collided and shattered, leaving both sides’ leaders to fight directly without their formations.
• Di Jun used the Witch-Slaying Sword to kill Rushou and Jumang, but Dijiang struck him down with a sword, and Di Jun passed the Witch-Slaying Sword to Taiyi as he died.
