• Xuanqing considered how he might recruit Styx and planned to seize the Eight Trigrams Furnace, while Styx and Kunpeng failed to gain the upper hand and Styx began weighing retreat.

Dong Wang Gong, Queen Mother of the West, and Lei Ze escaped to the Eastern Sea, while Di Jun offered Xuanqing the Eight Trigrams Furnace; the furnace then flew out of its crater and circled him.

Taichu joined the Ancestral Witches, leaving Hongjun to face their combined assault and protest that he had never knowingly disturbed Taichu’s cultivation.

• Hongjun suppressed the Jade Disc of Creation and discovered that the Pangu True Body was formed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches, all of whom had already become Hunyuan Golden Immortals.
• Gonggong admired Hongjun’s Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, and Dijiang declared that the Ancestral Witches would seize them when Taiqing and the others arrived.

Hongjun escaped with the Heavenly Dao’s help after Taichu struck him with the God-Slaying Spear, leaving several Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures behind.

Hongjun planned to become a Heavenly Dao Saint and allocate the twelve strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi, while Nuwa and Fuxi broke through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm with Taiqing’s guidance. After pledging support for the Witch Race, the siblings asked Taiqing for a place hidden from the Heavenly Dao so they could leave Pangu Hall and cultivate elsewhere.

• On the journey, Nuwa and Fuxi discussed the strength of the Law Path and their gratitude to Taiqing for helping them break through to Hunyuan Golden Immortals.
