Wang Wu was sent into the chaotic Three Calamities to survey a location for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle, while Qing Xue’s preparations convinced King Bear Shou that she meant for him to escape. Unable to sense the other needles at first, Wang Wu resolved to search for their signal and help Qing Xue complete the project.

• King Bear Shou and the other old Sin Prisoners noticed Qing Xue had sent Wang Wu away, but King Bear Shou decided not to pursue him for the blood curse.
• An old Sin Prisoner considered chasing Wang Wu to claim the Hidden Dragon Tendon, then chose to preserve his lifespan rather than risk the Three Calamities.
• Wang Wu struggled to begin surveying and asked the Four Clowns for help, but they advised him to flee and hide.
• Wang Wu used the Heaven and Earth Compass to search for the twenty-four existing Heaven and Earth Needles, but he could not sense them from his current distance.
• Wang Wu suspected Qin Wushuang had sabotaged the project to target Frost Lord and concluded that finding the needle signal was the only way to help Qing Xue.

Wang Wu mapped the Vermillion Bird Heaven and Earth Needles and used level 18 Spiritual Essence Insight to identify a possible location for the twenty-fifth needle. When two readings differed by one hundred li, he decided his only remaining option was to break the Blood Curse.

• Wang Wu tracked the Heaven and Earth Needle network, mapped its scattered formations, and found the twenty-third needle in Vermillion Bird Group One.
• Wang Wu embedded the Heaven and Earth Compass in the twenty-third needle and used level 18 Spiritual Essence Insight to locate a possible site for the twenty-fifth.
• Wang Wu rested and repeated the process at the twenty-fourth needle, but his new result differed from the first by one hundred li.
• Wang Wu concluded that he had to break the Blood Curse, despite the risk of exposing himself to a level 27 Divine Calculation and confirming that he killed Senior Sister Qin.

Wang Wu broke the Blood Curse Heavenly Punishment by driving his qi and blood beyond its limits, raising his Heart of the Earth to Level 18 and refining the resulting torrent. Afterward, he customized his Passive Concealment into the Forgetting Divine Ability and advanced Spiritual Resonance to Level 19.

• Wang Wu used his two Foundation Establishment Arrays to shatter the Blood Curse Heavenly Punishment, and the Bear Immortal's essence blood raised his Heart of the Earth from Level 12 to Level 18.
• Wang Wu contained the unleashed qi and blood with his Demon Pills, Foundation Establishment Arrays, and Three-Defense Treasure Armor, then compressed it until its quality rose to Level 4.
• The Four Clowns reported Wang Wu's breakthroughs, increased bloodline potential, new cultivation level, and improved abilities.
• Wang Wu spent one million points of refined qi and blood to customize Level 25 Passive Concealment with a partial Forgetting effect that reduced the chance of being deduced, calculated, or sensed.
• Wang Wu spent three million points of Level 4 refined qi and blood to advance Spiritual Resonance to Level 19.

Wang Wu assessed the risks posed by his new bloodline changes and chose to strengthen Danger Sense rather than spend an enormous amount completing the Forgetting Divine Ability. He awakened a level 1 Warning Divine Ability, which complemented his level 1 Forgetting and left him better equipped to conceal himself and detect danger.

• Wang Wu replaced his worn Three-Defense Treasure Armor and carefully examined his cultivation, talents, and new abilities.
• The Four Clowns urged Wang Wu to raise Passive Concealment to level 27, but he found the required qi and blood prohibitively costly and ruled out upgrading his demon pill.

• Wang Wu rejected the prediction and precognition paths and chose the assassin ancient bear route for his new divine ability.
• Wang Wu spent one million points of level 4 refined qi and blood to awaken the level 1 Warning Divine Ability, which boosted the effects of his level 1 Forgetting and vice versa.

Wang Wu used the Heaven and Earth Compass to identify the optimal site for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle, then secretly improved two existing needles and marked the new site. He returned to find Qing Xue and Qin Wushuang already building a base, and told Qing Xue he could reduce the total number of needles to ninety-nine; she agreed to report his claim to her master.

• Wang Wu combined Level 19 Spiritual Essence Insight with the Heaven and Earth Compass and discovered how the Sin Prison Tower leaked Yin-Yang Two Energies and how its Heaven and Earth Needles repaired it.
• Wang Wu stripped and rearranged materials from the twenty-fourth Heaven and Earth Needle, improving its suppression while collecting Vermilion Bird Formation Stones, then did the same to the twenty-third.
• Wang Wu used the stones to locate and mark the optimal site for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle, then returned to Qing Xue ahead of the deadline.
• Wang Wu found Qing Xue, Qin Wushuang, and Zi Han at a new construction site and learned that Qing Xue's master had agreed to a sixty-forty split with the other party.
• Wang Wu told Qing Xue he had surveyed a better site and could reduce the total number of Heaven and Earth Needles to ninety-nine, and Qing Xue said she would report it to her master.

Wang Wu accompanied Qing Xue and a disguised formation master to establish the site for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle while Frost Domain hid his role in the survey. When Gray Eye attacked, the formation master revealed herself as Frost Lord and killed him.

• Qing Xue told Wang Wu to keep his survey work secret and said Frost Domain had sent a new formation master to challenge Qin Wushuang.
• Qing Xue introduced the newly arrived Thousand Words Formation Master, and Wang Wu left with them as Gray Eye accused him of betrayal and tried to seize him.
• Zi Han gave Gray Eye an object, and he left the fortress while Wang Wu, Qing Xue, and the formation master traveled into the Evil Wind.
• The formation master spent nearly half a month surveying and finally selected the exact site Wang Wu had first identified for the twenty-fifth Heaven and Earth Needle.
• Gray Eye ambushed the group, but the formation master stopped him and revealed herself as Frost Lord before destroying his body and Divine Soul.

Wang Wu and Qing Xue concealed Frost Lord’s killing of Gray Eye while discussing Wang Wu’s broken Blood Curse Heavenly Punishment and his involvement in Qin Yu’s death. Qing Xue pressed him on why he still refused to seek help from her master, and Wang Wu instead asked whether she would take him in.

• Wang Wu mistook Qing Xue for Frost Lord after seeing a powerful immortal sword destroy Gray Eye, then realized she had used his hair to create a Thousand Words Formation Master clone.
• Qing Xue and Wang Wu built a Main Three-Defense Fortress and agreed to keep Frost Lord’s appearance and Gray Eye’s death secret.
• Qing Xue inferred that Wang Wu had broken the Blood Curse Heavenly Punishment and killed Qin Yu, and promised to keep both secrets.
• Wang Wu admitted he had avoided asking Qing Xue’s master for help because he feared the Hidden Origin Society’s infighting and distrusted its powerful figures.
• Qing Xue argued that her master would protect Wang Wu, but he said he might someday have to kill his own master and asked whether Qing Xue would take him in.

Wang Wu cultivated in the fortress for half a month, then discovered that everyone treated him as the long-hidden formation grandmaster True Man Zhishui, Frost Lord’s old friend. Feng Muhan asked him to speed up the Heaven and Earth Needle’s construction and cut its budget, leaving Wang Wu facing a task he had not expected.

• Wang Wu openly asked Qing Xue to marry him someday, and she fled after telling him to meditate in his Three-Defense Treasure Armor.
• Wang Wu cultivated for half a month while the Sin Prisoners returned quietly and left without acknowledging him.
• Bai Yu arrived with Feng Muhan and Wu Qianyan, and Feng Muhan explained that he had taken over construction of the Vermillion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle.
• When Wang Wu asked about Qing Xue, Feng Muhan and Bai Yu said they did not know anyone by that name and identified Wang Wu as True Man Zhishui, Frost Lord’s secluded friend and a formation grandmaster.
• After inspecting the slow construction, Wang Wu was told Frost Lord expected him to finish within two years while reducing the planned spiritual-energy budget from one hundred trillion dou to sixty trillion.

Wang Wu learned about the Hidden Origin Society’s structure and agreed to oversee construction of the Heaven and Earth Needles while planning his cultivation. After unlocking the Hegemon Body Divine Ability, he saw the Trial Divine Hall and received an invitation to its trial.

• Feng Muhan explained the Seven Domains, the Three Departments, the Nine Rudders, the Twelve Branch Altars, and the Hidden Origin Society’s profit distribution to Wang Wu.
• Wang Wu promised to complete the Heaven and Earth Needles within two years, and Feng Muhan gave him a box containing a mysterious spirit talisman from Frost Lord.
• Wang Wu set cultivation goals for the next one hundred and fifty years and began unlocking the Hegemon Body Divine Ability.
• Wang Wu’s bloodline vision revealed the Trial Divine Hall, whose ancient voice invited him to enter the trial at the Mang Mountain Ancient Bear Sacred Land.

Wang Wu unlocked the Hegemon Body Divine Ability and learned that the Four Clowns classified bloodline abilities by the Heaven Earth Black Yellow ranks. He declined to test his new ability in the Evil Wind for now and focused on repairing his Spirit Pills.

• Wang Wu learned that unlocking the Hegemon Body Divine Ability had consumed 15% of his Bloodline Evolution allocation and raised its maximum level to 22.
• The Four Clowns explained that the Blood Sea Star River held inheritances from multiple Ancient Blood clans and classified abilities into four ranks with twenty-seven levels each.
• The Four Clowns ranked Wang Wu’s branch talents as Yellow Grade, his attribute-based secret techniques as Black Grade, and most of his major bloodline abilities as Earthly Grade, while speculating that Spiritual Essence Insight might be Heaven Grade.
• Wang Wu refused to enter the Evil Wind and test his level 19 Hegemon Body Divine Ability, choosing to wait two years while maintaining his disguise and protection.
• Wang Wu repaired the Water Spirit Pill, Wood Spirit Pill, and Gold Spirit Pill, deciding not to add more abilities to them because they were meant to support his foundations rather than fight.

Wang Wu spent fifty years helping Frost Domain build Heaven and Earth Needles while repairing his spirit pills and strengthening his abilities. As Feng Muhan explained the stakes behind the construction, Wang Wu learned that the Hidden Origin Society planned to turn the Great Desolation Sin Prison into a second Town Origin Tower, and he began to form a bold idea.

• Wang Wu helped Frost Domain build twenty-one Heaven and Earth Needles and used the past fifty years to repair his spirit pills and improve his abilities.
• Wang Wu prepared to make a final attempt at Yin Fire Resistance while surveying the location for the forty-seventh Heaven and Earth Needle, but Feng Muhan stayed by his side.
• Feng Muhan refused to let Wang Wu survey other teams' array patterns alone and explained the threats facing Frost Domain and the pressure on the Hidden Origin Society.
• Feng Muhan revealed that the Hidden Origin Society planned to transform the Great Desolation Sin Prison into a second Town Origin Tower, with the Vermillion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle project supporting that goal.
• Wang Wu agreed to continue cooperating and reminded Feng Muhan that he had saved Frost Domain eight trillion dou of spirit energy while keeping twelve billion dou for himself.
• Wang Wu gave up on exploring alone for now but came up with a bold idea about the Town Origin Tower.

Wang Wu raised Passive Concealment to Level 27 and secretly tested how far he could travel into the Evil Wind without being detected. He deliberately contracted increasingly severe stages of Evil Wind Bone Plague to build resistance, but his powerful defenses kept defeating it for meager gains.

• Wang Wu spent six years helping construct Heaven and Earth Needles while saving refined vitality and blood to raise Passive Concealment to Level 27.
• Wang Wu left the Main Three-Defense Fortress unnoticed, confirmed Feng Muhan and the others could not detect him, and ventured into Level 7 Evil Wind.
• Wang Wu contracted seventh-stage Evil Wind Bone Plague, which his Creation Fire Spirit Energy and other defenses eventually suppressed, earning him only 1 point of Evil Wind Resistance.
• Wang Wu stayed in the Evil Wind for half an hour on a second trip and contracted the eighth-stage plague, which his Self-Healing Talent contained in under thirty hours.
• Wang Wu recovered after losing three years of lifespan and gained just 10 more points of Evil Wind Resistance.

Wang Wu endured the ninth stage of Evil Wind Bone Plague, then spent twenty years recovering while the Three Calamities stabilized and his role in building Heaven and Earth Needles diminished. As Feng Muhan prepared to leave with the Heaven and Earth Compass, he returned badly injured, and Wang Wu discovered the compass had been stolen.

• Wang Wu endured three shichen in the Evil Wind, suffered severe permanent losses, and gained 4,000 Evil Wind Resistance before spending three months recovering.
• Wang Wu spent twenty years repairing his Spirit Pills, improving Danger Sense and cultivating three Spirit Pills to second grade as the Three Calamities weakened.
• Feng Muhan told Wang Wu that Frost Domain no longer needed his help with surveying and construction and offered to see him off amid tensions over the nearly completed Town Origin Tower.
• After Feng Muhan left carrying the Heaven and Earth Compass, he returned less than an incense stick later, bloodied and unconscious, with his Three-Defense Treasure Armor destroyed.
• Wang Wu searched Feng Muhan and discovered that the Heaven and Earth Compass had been stolen.

Bai Yu stabilized Feng Muhan and ordered the prison laborers to seal themselves away while Wang Wu examined the shattered Creation Wind Spirit Pill. The Hidden Origin Society then declared war on the Tianshu Immortal Alliance, leaving Frost Domain’s sabotage crisis on the brink of a larger conflict.

• Bai Yu stabilized Feng Muhan’s injuries, ordered the twelve prison laborers to remain silent under Spirit-Sealing Talismans, and offered rewards to anyone willing to help Frost Domain.
• Bai Yu told Wang Wu that the Heaven and Earth Compass had been stolen and destroyed, leaving Frost Domain unable to build more Heaven and Earth Needles for ten years.
• Wang Wu agreed to treat Feng Muhan and used the Four Clowns to diagnose his shattered Fifth Rank Creation Wind Spirit Pill and severe injuries.
• The Four Clowns warned Wang Wu that the attack had likely been intended to kill Feng Muhan and might be linked to suspicions about Qin’s death.
• The Hidden Origin Elder Council announced a state of war and declared that the Hidden Origin Society would fight the Tianshu Immortal Alliance until one side perished.

Wang Wu healed Feng Muhan with his Greatest Common Divisor Pill and spiritual energy, allowing him to recover and join the Hidden Origin Society’s defense against a full-scale attack. Feng Muhan helped Bai Yu complete the Town Origin Tower’s formation, but the battle continued as Wang Wu lamented the loss of his pill.

• Bai Yu asked Wang Wu to save Feng Muhan and rushed outside to defend the Hidden Origin Society.
• Wang Wu used a miniature Heaven and Earth Needle, his Greatest Common Divisor Pill, and spiritual energy to stabilize Feng Muhan’s injuries and help him recover.
• Feng Muhan woke, absorbed the remaining spiritual energy, and rushed outside as the attackers assaulted Bai Yu’s unfinished formation.
• Feng Muhan fought six opposing Grand Unity True Immortals while Bai Yu completed and activated seventy-five Formation Flags for the Town Origin Tower.
• Feng Muhan returned bloodied after killing one enemy and severely wounding another, then asked Wang Wu for more pills; Wang Wu pretended he had none and mourned his loss.

Wang Wu stayed inside the Three-Defense Fortress as a catastrophic disturbance destroyed most of the Frost Domain’s Heaven and Earth Needles, then watched as Divine Lord Yinyuan’s reinforcements arrived and Frost Lord appointed him chief administrator. The chapter left him responsible for repairs, with Qing Xue due to assist, while the Hidden Origin Society and Tianshu Immortal Alliance entered a full-scale war.

• Bai Yu linked the Frost Domain’s Heaven and Earth Needles with formations from the Fire and Azure Domains, but a sudden upheaval in the Sin Prison Tower shattered the formation and gravely injured Bai Yu and Feng Muhan.
• Feng Muhan urged Wang Wu to stabilize the Formation Flags, but Wang Wu stayed inside the Three-Defense Fortress, and the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul vanished as most of the needles were damaged.
• Divine Lord Yinyuan’s Immortal Talisman temporarily sealed the hole made by the Tianshu Alliance, and Frost Lord arrived with twenty Grand Unity True Immortals to rescue Bai Yu and Feng Muhan.
• Frost Lord ordered the criminal prisoners transferred back to the Black Domain and told Wang Wu that he had done the right thing by preserving himself.
• Frost Lord granted Wang Wu three requests, assigned him responsibility for repairing the Heaven and Earth Needles, promised that Qing Xue would assist him, and named him chief administrator.

Wang Wu repaired thirty-six Heaven and Earth Needles and formed a Vermilion Bird Formation Soul, then sent it to support Frost Lord on the battlefield. The formation soul destroyed the grand formation trapping Frost Lord, but the resulting shockwaves killed Wang Wu’s wisp of Divine Sense.

• Wang Wu repaired thirty-six Heaven and Earth Needles over three days using the remaining Vermilion Bird Formation Stones.
• Wang Wu activated the repaired needles and formed a Vermilion Bird Formation Soul, which let him observe the battlefield and locate Frost Lord.
• Frost Lord received an order to attack the Tianshu Grand Formation’s southwestern corner despite having only seven Grand Unity True Immortals still able to fight.
• Wang Wu activated Frost Lord’s mysterious spirit talisman, then sent the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul through the Great Immeasurable Immortal Talisman to reach her.
• Wang Wu unleashed the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul, which grew to enormous size and destroyed the grand formation trapping Frost Lord and her companions.
• Wang Wu withdrew the formation soul, but battlefield shockwaves killed his remaining wisp of Divine Sense.

Frost Lord’s Vermilion Bird Formation Soul turned the battle around, earning her a place on the Hidden Origin Elder Council. Wang Wu learned of Dragon Head City’s fall and Qing Xue’s rescue efforts, then discovered that she considered the Heaven and Earth Needles and their formation soul to belong to Frost Domain.

• Frost Lord unleashed the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul, charged through the shattered enemy formation, and killed seven Grand Unity True Immortals as her forces secured a victory.
• Divine Lord Yinyuan promoted Frost Lord to Second Rank elder and admitted her to the Hidden Origin Elder Council, while Fire Lord congratulated her and granted her seven days to rest.
• Wang Wu reflected on the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul and repaired thirteen more Heaven and Earth Needles, bringing his total to forty-nine.
• Qing Xue arrived alone and told Wang Wu that Dragon Head City had fallen, that she had rescued 532 of his relatives and friends, and that Snake Nineteen had died.
• Qing Xue explained that Frost Lord had not expected a complete Vermilion Bird Formation Soul from only forty-nine needles, then told Wang Wu that the needles and formation soul belonged to Frost Domain.

Qing Xue used a one-time immortal formation to create a powerful Vermilion Bird Formation Soul for Frost Lord, then told Wang Wu that Feng Muhan had been credited with killing Qin Yu. After Qing Xue left, Wang Wu discovered that the forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles had vanished and noticed a similar formation being prepared at the neighboring site.

• Qing Xue arranged all forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles and activated a specialized immortal formation to cultivate the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul.
• Qing Xue thanked Wang Wu for helping save Frost Lord and accepted his request, then completed a lively, powerful Vermilion Bird Formation Soul.
• Qing Xue told Wang Wu that Elder Hui's Divine Calculation named Feng Muhan as Qin Yu's killer, and that the Qin Family had betrayed them and been destroyed.
• Qing Xue said Elder Hui had become a second-rank elder and offered Wang Wu a chance to return as his disciple, but Wang Wu refused; she then told him Wang Zhige was dead.
• After Qing Xue departed with the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul, Wang Wu discovered that all forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles had disappeared and saw eighty-one intact needles being used for a similar formation nearby.

Wang Wu watched the Sin Prison Tower’s formation souls get taken away, then secretly collected damaged formation stones as the Three Calamities faded. With the tower calm and Qing Xue gone until she returns in ten years, he decided to build a Heaven and Earth Needle so he could repair the stones.

• Wang Wu saw a tiny Vermilion Bird Formation Soul return to him, but chose not to investigate it or risk alerting Divine Lord Yinyuan.
• Wang Wu searched the tower for Yin Fire and Evil Wind while gathering fifty thousand damaged formation stones left behind by the factions.
• The final formation soul was taken, all sixteen sets of Heaven and Earth Needles disappeared, and the tower’s Evil Wind weakened to Level Three.
• Wang Wu found Qing Xue’s jade talisman, learned she had left after the war, and agreed to wait ten years for her return.
• Wang Wu examined the damaged formation stones and decided to construct a Heaven and Earth Needle to repair them, despite his lack of spiritual energy.

Wang Wu spent years and vast resources repairing five hundred White Tiger Formation Stones, then assembled them into a miniature Heaven and Earth Needle to recover spirit energy from damaged stones. After reclaiming five billion points of spirit energy, he declared himself financially free, though his other formation stones were rapidly deteriorating.

• Wang Wu selected the White Tiger Formation Talisman and used the Three-Defense structures to build a sealed workspace, then began repairing its formation stones with spirit energy borrowed from his Spirit Pills.
• Wang Wu repaired three hundred stones, exhausted the Spirit Pills and his own bloodline resources, and continued until all five hundred were repaired after another half year.
• Wang Wu immediately assembled a miniature Heaven and Earth Needle and entered it before placing the final formation stone, then used Yin-Yang Two Energies to contain escaping spirit energy.
• Wang Wu dismantled nearly two thousand damaged formation stones inside the miniature Heaven and Earth Needle, recovering about five billion points of spirit energy and achieving wealth freedom.

Wang Wu dismantled formation stones until the spiritual energy in the Heaven and Earth Needle threatened to overwhelm him, then used the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul to compress and consume most of it. A sudden warning from his Danger Sense led him to suspect Elder Hui might target him despite his apparent disappearance, so he chose to prepare for danger rather than pursue a perfect formation.

• Wang Wu dismantled formation stones and accumulated more than fifty billion points of spiritual energy, prompting the Four Clowns to warn that the Heaven and Earth Needle could become dangerously unstable.
• Wang Wu struggled to store the energy and abandoned plans for multiple projects after realizing the remaining formation stones could eventually raise the total to three hundred billion points.
• Wang Wu controlled the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul to refine fifty billion points of ordinary spiritual energy into Level 6 Creation Fire Spirit Energy, which the soul then swallowed.
• Wang Wu decided to deploy a Five Aggregates Piercing Formation on his Innate Bloodline Five Demon Cores instead of waiting for the Five Elements Profound Yellow Formation.
• Wang Wu explained that his Danger Sense warned him Elder Hui might uncover his staged disappearance and have the Azure Dragon Clan pull out his Hidden Dragon Tendons.

Wang Wu tried to strengthen the Logistics Three Pills with the Five Aggregates Iron Prison Formation, but his corrections resonated with the White Tiger Formation Talisman and transformed the array. After deploying it, he struggled to direct the resulting surge of spirit energy and left the Houtian Five Spirit Pills fighting among themselves.

• The Four Clowns advised Wang Wu to strengthen the Logistics Three Pills, maintain three cultivation sequences, and avoid Qing Xue and the Azure Dragon Clan by cultivating in seclusion.
• Wang Wu hid underground, repaired the Vermilion Bird Formation Stones, and abandoned plans to repair the Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise Formation Stones when the Great Desolation Sin Prison Tower seemed close to activating.
• Wang Wu refined accumulated spirit energy into level 6 Creation Fire Spirit Energy and began deploying the Five Aggregates Iron Prison Formation for the Logistics Three Pills.
• Wang Wu's corrections resonated with the White Tiger Heaven and Earth Needle, changing the array into a Five Aggregates White Tiger Essence Gold Heavenly Prison Formation as spirit energy accumulated around him.
• After Wang Wu completed the deployment, more than thirty billion units of spirit energy surged into his sequences, nearly forcing the Logistics Three Pills to break through.
• Wang Wu diverted some of the surge to the innate and Houtian sequences, where the Five Houtian Spirit Pills erupted into a battle, while he turned his attention to identifying the new array.

Wang Wu’s new Five Elements Lesser Yin Formation stabilized his cultivation sequences and briefly drove his realm toward Grand Unity, but he realized he still lacked the comprehension to form his own Dao. After reviewing his status, he sensed that the war had ended just as Qing Xue arrived at the end of her ten-year term.

• The Five Elements Lesser Yin Formation harmonized the Second Sequence, reclaimed power from the First Sequence, and separated the clashing pills in the Third Sequence so Wang Wu could preserve the Greatest Common Divisor Pill.
• The Four Clowns named the formation, and Wang Wu meditated for nine days as it refined the Logistics Three Pills and rapidly strengthened his bloodline, lifespan, and attributes.
• Wang Wu’s cultivation surged toward Grand Unity First Order True Immortal, but the breakthrough faded because he had not formed his own Dao.
• Wang Wu concluded that he needed to undergo trials and deepen his understanding rather than force his cultivation higher, then examined the report and his attribute panel.
• Wang Wu sensed that the war outside had ended and that the Hidden Origin Society might restart the Great Desolation Sin Prison Tower, then welcomed Qing Xue as her ten-year term ended.

Wang Wu discovered that the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul concealed him from two powerful pursuers, but Frost Lord drove them away with overwhelming force. She then confronted him and offered him control of the Frost Domain, pressing him about his feelings for Qing Xue; he was left facing her question about whether he would give Qing Xue up.

• Wang Wu used the Vermilion Bird Formation Soul to watch Qing Xue and spotted a gray strand of qi that transformed into a snake and searched for him.
• A middle-aged scholar and the Great Witch Priest of the Mang Mountain Ancient Bear Clan appeared, but Frost Lord overwhelmed them with her sword radiance and frost.
• Elder Hui and another elder asked Frost Lord to spare the Azure Dragon envoy and the Great Witch Priest, and she withdrew her attack after warning them to behave.
• Frost Lord found Wang Wu and told him she had become a second-rank elder and wanted him to become the Frost Domain's master.
• Frost Lord challenged Wang Wu about teasing Qing Xue and asked whether he would give her up.
