• The group entered the estate at night, where Old Mountain Cat silently subdued the guards and led them toward the mountains.

• Wu Hengtong and Wu Sheng abandoned their fight to pursue the kirins, allowing Old Mountain Cat and One Blade Red to return to the Wu Family and break into a training room to search for a secret chamber.

Su Que witnessed Yu Dahu and Hong Chendao kill Wu Sheng and Wu Hengtong, then captured a Wu Family disciple to learn the Blazing Ice Divine Skill and begin cultivating the Evil Fist Ice-Fire Seven Heavens. He returned toward Jiannan Prefecture with two qilins and pill ingredients, advancing his Gang Qi to ten zhang on the way.

• A Wu Family disciple revealed that the estate's secret chamber had been found, and Wu Sheng realized Yu Dahu and Hong Chendao had taken the Evil Fist Ice-Fire Seven Heavens manual.

• Su Que converted the qilin demonic nature into Demonic Blade demonic nature, raising his Demonic Blade to Realm 5, Peak Mastery 96%.

After the Seven Revolutions Qilin Pill strengthened his body and extended his lifespan, Su Que began cultivating Evil Fist Ice-Fire Seven Heavens.

• Su Que found that the Seven Revolutions Qilin Pill had added seven years to his lifespan and made his physical body tougher.

• Su Que asked Li Xuanji to attack him, but discovered Li Xuanji’s full-strength Heavenly Net Hundred Kill Palm was too weak to provide the injury needed for his cultivation.
• Li Xuanji offered to give Su Que a technique that used muscular resistance to simulate weapons striking the body, and Su Que returned the next day to collect the Great Yama Body Tempering Technique.
• Su Que practiced the technique while circulating the Seven Heavens of Ice and Fire, converting the simulated impacts into progress and reaching the first heaven’s breakthrough.

He found the Lin Family confronting the weakened Wu Family, and as the two clans began fighting, Su Que considered rescuing Wu Family members for his cultivation.

• Wu Hengtian unleashed the Evil Fist Ice-Fire Seven Heavens against Lin Yuantian, while Su Que watched and considered saving Wu Family members so they could help him train.

Su Que rescued the Wu Family’s elders, women, and children from the Lin Family, then revealed that he needed their fire and ice forces to aid his cultivation. When the Wu Family recognized him as the thief responsible for their secret manual’s loss and attacked, Su Que subdued Wu Hengtian’s eldest son and demanded they choose between helping him and dying.

• Su Que broke through and surrounded his right fist with blazing fire force and his left fist with bone-chilling icy spikes.

Su Que asked Wu Hengtian's eldest son how to cultivate the fourth heaven of Evil Fist Ice-Fire Seven Heavens, then used the Wu Family martial artists' ice and fire forces to temper his organs. As their attacks steadily advanced his cultivation and increased his lifespan, he demanded that they keep pouring in their full strength.

• Su Que demonstrated that mastering the third heaven had greatly strengthened his hands, then asked Wu Hengtian's eldest son how to cultivate the fourth heaven.
