- Yan Kuan investigated the Heavenly Dao, subdued the awakened Heavenly Devil, and concluded that each Heaven was an independent manifestation of the Dao.
- Yan Kuan entered the God-Demon Taiji Diagram, found Dugu Xiaoxuan and restored her with the Spring of Life, then helped Dragonling hatch Kunlun’s phoenix egg.
- Yan Kuan intervened as the Demon Suppression Stone and Marshal Conferring Platform clashed, then brought them to Hell, where Dugu Baitian’s remnant spirit helped shatter the stone and absorb its nine drops of blood.
- Yan Kuan sent Chen Nan and his companions to the Celestial Realm, then aided the Evil Ancestor’s transformation into a Mad Devil and defeated Supreme One, refining both their spiritual origins.
- The Demon Lord and Chen Zhan drew powerful figures into the Third Realm, an event later remembered as the Day Without Heaven, while Yan Kuan continued investigating the realms and visiting his allies.
- The Seven Primordial Monarchs escaped their Holy Mountains, but Yan Kuan repelled them and secured an agreement, and Chen Nan later fought Songtsen Gampo and Azure Heaven Avatar before suffering grave injuries.
- Ten years later, Yan Kuan offered Chen Nan the Hearts of Time and Space and sent him toward the Time-Space Great God’s treasure trove, where Chen Nan inherited control of time and space and reversed his aging.
- Chen Nan, Nangong Xian’er, Dharma Ancestor, and De Meng traveled upstream through time and space and arrived at the God-Demon Graveyard, where the Gravekeeper watched them.
