• Su Yun ordered the Phoenix to drive Dragon Island into the array, despite the North Dragon King’s concern for the ancient artifact.
• Dragon Island struck the formation, cracking its barrier and draining its energy; Yan Jin and the elders spat blood as the array neared collapse.

Su Yun shattered the Yan Clan’s Flame Burning Heaven Array and led the Beast Race army into the Flame Realm. Yan Jin rallied his clan and briefly turned the battle around, but Su Yun summoned the Remnant Soul of the Medicine Emperor, which struck Yan Jin down.

• Yan Jin ordered the Yan Clan disciples to pour their Dou Qi into the Flame Burning Heaven Array, but Su Yun destroyed it with the Emperor Slaying Sword.

• The Remnant Soul of the Medicine Emperor struck Yan Jin with a black palm imprint, shattering his defense and grievously wounding him.

Yan Jin summoned the Yan Clan ancestor’s natal Heavenly Flame as a final reserve, intending to sacrifice himself to gain half-emperor power and protect his clan. Su Yun killed him before he could fuse with the flame and claimed it, leaving the Yan Clan helpless and despairing.

• Yan Jin rose from the ruins and sent his remaining Saint Power and bloodline essence to the ancestral altar, awakening the Yan Clan’s ancestor’s natal Heavenly Flame.

• Su Yun’s blood-red sword qi cleaved Yan Jin in two before he could fuse with the Heavenly Flame, killing the Yan Clan Leader.
• Su Yun took the drifting Heavenly Flame and remarked that keeping the Yan Clan alive long enough to reveal it had been worthwhile.

Su Yun led the Beast Race in destroying the Yan Clan, while news of the massacre drove Xiao Yan and the others to hasten the Pure Lotus Demon Saint’s revival. Gu Yuan began inscribing the revival formation patterns onto the Ninth-grade Golden Pill and Xiao Xuan’s Soul Body.

• Su Yun ordered the Beast Race to kill every Yan Clan member, and the army slaughtered the clan after he killed Yan Jin.
• Su Yun used the Soul Guiding Jade to check the progress in the Pill Region and said the next step depended on Gu Yuan.
• A messenger told Xiao Yan, Old Yao, Divine Farmer, and the Alchemist Tower elders that the Yan Clan had been wiped out.
• Xiao Yan and the others agreed to hasten the Pure Lotus Demon Saint’s revival and went to urge Gu Yuan to finish the formation patterns.
• Gu Yuan began weaving the revival patterns onto the Ninth-grade Golden Pill and Xiao Xuan’s Soul Body, causing the Golden Pill to resonate with the Pure Lotus Demon Saint’s physical body.

Gu Yuan sealed Xiao Xuan’s Soul Body and the Ninth-grade Golden Pill with mysterious runes, then scheduled the resurrection ritual for seven days later. Xiao Yan and Xun’er worried the runes might be tied to the Soul Clan, and Xun’er asked to see her father once more at the ritual.

• Gu Yuan inscribed mysterious formation runes on the Ninth-grade Golden Pill and Xiao Xuan’s Soul Body, then postponed the resurrection ritual for seven days while he recovered.
• Xiao Xuan told Xiao Yan that the runes felt familiar and resembled Soul Clan secret arts, though they seemed to draw in souls rather than devour them.
• Gu Ming sent the visitors away, and Xiao Yan returned to the Flower Sect residence troubled by Xiao Xuan’s warning.
• Xiao Yan told Xun’er about the runes, and she admitted she could not determine whether they were connected to the Soul Clan.
• Xun’er apologized for Gu Yuan’s actions, and Xiao Yan reassured her; she then declared herself a member of the Xiao Family.
• Xun’er asked Xiao Yan to bring her to the resurrection ritual so she could see her father one more time.

Xun'er persuaded Xiao Yan to take her to meet Gu Yuan before the resurrection ritual, and seven days later they arrived at the palace with Divine Farmer and the others. Gu Yuan welcomed them coldly and ordered everyone inside, while an unseen force secretly replaced the Pure Lotus Demon Saint's corpse with an identical one.

• Xun'er asked to see her father, and Xiao Yan agreed to take her in seven days on the condition that she stayed beside him.
• As the resurrection ritual approached, Gu Yuan recovered enough to lead it and privately vowed to use the Pure Lotus Demon Saint's power to conquer the Dou Qi Continent.

• After Gu Yuan, Gu Jian, and Gu Ming left the palace, a Space Rift removed the Pure Lotus Demon Saint's corpse and replaced it with an identical one that briefly opened its eyes.
• Gu Yuan came out to meet Divine Farmer, Xiao Yan, and the others; Xun'er called him Father, and Xiao Yan defended her from Gu Yuan's rebuke.
• Gu Yuan dismissed Xiao Yan's accusation and invited everyone inside to begin the resurrection ritual.

Su Yun emerged from seclusion and agreed that Nether Valley should relocate to the Pill Region as the Dragon Phoenix Son’s threat grew. After leaving Medusa with a warning not to flee, he departed with her while Xiao Yi Xian caught the Amethyst Winged Lion King trying to sneak away.

• Su Yun returned to Nether Valley and learned that the Dragon Phoenix Son had obtained the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, prompting the Alchemist Tower to prepare for a coming upheaval.
• Medusa explained that the Alchemist Tower had invited allied forces to relocate to the Pill Region, and Su Yun agreed to move Nether Valley’s people there.
• Su Yun told Xiao Yi Xian to oversee the relocation and let disciples who refused to leave go without coercion.
• Su Yun took Medusa away through a Spatial Rift after warning someone hidden in Nether Valley not to flee.
• The Amethyst Winged Lion King tried to sneak out of its cave, but Xiao Yi Xian found it and heard its excuse that it was just going for a walk.

Su Yun brought Medusa to the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, where he revealed that the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python inheritance was hidden. He gave her a cultivation method to absorb it, and Medusa entered the spring to begin her seclusion.

• Su Yun and Medusa arrived at the ruined Nether Snake Mountain Range, where Medusa was wounded by the sword intent left behind by Xiao Ji Bai.
• Su Yun erased the sword intent from Medusa and explained that it could threaten the entire Beast Race.
• Su Yun led Medusa to the Nine Nether Yellow Springs and revealed that the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python inheritance was hidden there.
• Su Yun passed Medusa the inheritance and a cultivation method that could help her reach Dou Saint.
• Medusa thanked Su Yun, transformed into a seven-colored python, and entered the Nine Nether Yellow Springs.

Su Yun protected Medusa as she absorbed the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python inheritance, then entered the Nine Nether Underworld Python Clan’s sacrificial hall to claim the Yellow Springs Demon Saint’s legacy. He defeated the Demon Saint’s Soul Remnant and obtained Yellow Springs Heavenly Wrath, while the Half-Emperor Essence Blood emerged from the Black Stone Tablet.

• Su Yun concealed Yellow Springs and its surroundings with a spatial barrier to keep Medusa safe while she absorbed the inheritance.
• Su Yun found the hidden sacrificial hall and recognized the Black Stone Tablet as the source of the Yellow Springs Demon Saint’s ultimate arts and Essence Blood.
• Su Yun entered the tablet’s Consciousness Space, where the Yellow Springs Demon Saint’s Soul Remnant attacked him.
• Su Yun destroyed the Soul Remnant with Sword Intent and received the cultivation method for Yellow Springs Heavenly Wrath.
• The Black Stone Tablet cracked, and a drop of Golden Blood floated out.

Su Yun gave Xiao Yi Xian Half-Emperor Essence Blood to help her cultivation and left Nether Valley in her care before returning to the Ancient Realm Ruins. There, he prepared to use more than a hundred blood-red head-shaped Gu Worms to disrupt his enemies while he refined the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.

• Su Yun collected Half-Emperor Essence Blood from the stone stele and sealed it in a jade bottle for Xiao Yi Xian.
• Xiao Yi Xian ordered Nether Valley disciples to guard the imprisoned Amethyst Winged Lion King and feed it well so it would stay plump for cooking.
• Su Yun told Xiao Yi Xian that Medusa was inheriting the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python Clan's legacy, then gave Xiao Yi Xian Half-Emperor Essence Blood and concealed it inside her body.
• Su Yun left Nether Valley in Xiao Yi Xian's care and returned to the Ancient Realm Ruins instead of immediately refining the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
• Su Yun prepared more than a hundred blood-red, head-shaped Gu Worms, intending to prevent his enemies from peacefully recovering while he refined the fruit.
