After the second phase of the Jietian War ended, Jiang Fan learned the remaining conquerors’ locations and received rules that let him leave Mystic Heaven Realm without being eliminated if its Law Source Liquid was stolen. He pursued Zhu Jiuyang, but arrived at his hiding place just after Zhu Jiuyang fled.

• Jiang Fan recovered from his injuries and counted sixteen portions of Law Source Liquid, putting him in first place while Zhu Jiuyang held fourteen and Ling Wuchen held four.
• The war announced the second-phase rankings and revealed the three remaining conquerors’ locations, allowing Jiang Fan to track Zhu Jiuyang and Ling Wuchen.

Jiang Fan learned he could bring one person through the passage to the Supreme Sacred Realm and heard that several sects were interested in recruiting him.

• Jiang Fan agreed to stop pursuing Ling Wuchen after the white-robed old man warned that Ling Wuchen had been chosen by a Supreme Sacred Realm sword sect and further fighting was unnecessary.

After the Jietian War ended, Jiang Fan prepared to leave the Mystic Heaven Realm for the Upper Realm with Jiang Ming, while Zixiao Zhenren stayed behind to guard the realm. Just as the guidance was about to arrive, Mo Lou ambushed Jiang Fan and left him gravely injured.

• Jiang Fan and Zhu Jiuyang parted after the white-robed old man announced that the guiding pillar would descend in three days.
• The Mystic Heaven Realm celebrated the war's end, and Zixiao Zhenren told Jiang Fan to bring Jiang Ming to the Upper Realm while he remained behind to guard their realm.
• Jiang Fan and the realm's core figures arranged plans for the Mystic Heaven Realm, then Jiang Fan waited with Jiang Ming for the guidance to arrive.
• A crack opened behind Jiang Fan, and demonic qi struck his Sea of Consciousness and blasted him through several mountain peaks.
• Mo Lou emerged from the crack, revealed that his soul fragment had survived and grown stronger, and vowed to make Jiang Fan repay his debt.

Mo Lou ambushed the wounded Jiang Fan and sealed off the battlefield, then fought him while seeking to seize his three strands of Great Dao Essence. After Jiang Fan was driven underground, Jiang Ming charged at Mo Lou and was struck by his demonic claw.

• Mo Lou revealed himself to Jiang Fan, boasting that he had recovered his strength and intended to kill him and drown the Mystic Heaven Realm in blood.

Jiang Fan and Jiang Ming escaped Mo Lou twice with the Space-Escaping Mirror, but Mo Lou tracked them through the Demonic Qi infecting Jiang Fan’s wounds. With his strength nearly spent, Jiang Fan chose to confront Mo Lou in a starfield and used a formation to restrain him while activating an Ancient Mirror.

• Jiang Fan took Mo Lou’s blow while protecting Jiang Ming, and the Space-Escaping Mirror transported them away just before Mo Lou’s attack landed.
• Jiang Fan used the mirror a second time to escape Mo Lou, then realized the Demonic Qi in his wounds let Mo Lou track him wherever he went.
• With only one use of the mirror remaining, Jiang Fan prepared a formation in a belt of shattered stars and set up the Ancient Mirror that Song Jue had used against Mo Lou.
• Mo Lou found Jiang Fan and attacked, but the formation’s golden chains bound his demonic blade and held back his assault.
• Jiang Fan activated the Ancient Mirror and sent a beam of white light toward Mo Lou.

Jiang Fan burned his three Great Dao Essences to empower the Soul-Devouring Ancient Mirror and destroy Mo Lou. Afterward, Jiang Fan survived, but his Dao foundation was ruined and his cultivation fell to an unstable early Emperor Realm.

• Mo Lou fought the Soul-Devouring Ancient Mirror’s pull, while Jiang Fan realized his body and trapping formation could not hold out much longer.
• Jiang Fan burned his three cracked Great Dao Essences, strengthening the formation and the ancient mirror at the cost of his Dao foundation.

• The ancient mirror fell and the lotus faded as Jiang Fan collapsed, his meridians, Dantian, and Dao foundation severely damaged.
• Jiang Fan’s cultivation plummeted to an unstable early Emperor Realm, leaving him alive but unable to advance further.

After Mo Lou’s ambush left Jiang Fan’s cultivation and Dao foundation devastated, Zixiao Zhenren and the others found him and learned how he had slain the fiend. Jiang Fan insisted on going to the Upper Realm with Jiang Ming despite his injuries, and the induction passage opened as they prepared to leave.

• Zixiao Zhenren urged Jiang Fan to remain in the Zixiao Sect and recover, but Jiang Fan insisted on taking Jiang Ming to the Upper Realm as promised.
• Zixiao Zhenren agreed to respect Jiang Fan’s decision, and the Upper Realm’s induction passage opened.

Jiang Fan and Jiang Ming said farewell to their companions and traveled through the welcoming passage to the Upper Realm. They arrived on a mountain platform in the Supreme Sacred Realm, while Jiang Fan’s damaged meridians remained unrepaired.

• Zixiao Zhenren brought Jiang Fan and Jiang Ming to the welcoming passage, where Jiang Fan treated his injuries but found that his ruptured meridians could not retain Spiritual Power.
• Jiang Fan changed clothes, treated Jiang Ming’s wounds, and received farewell gifts and words of support from Su Xin, Lin Qingxue, the Grand Elders, and Zixiao Zhenren.

• Daoist Xuanji offered Jiang Fan formal discipleship, access to Heavenly Divination Palace’s resources, and the sect’s protection while it sought a way to restore his cultivation foundation.
• Jiang Fan accepted the invitation and promised to contribute to Heavenly Divination Palace without betraying Xuanji’s trust.

• As Jiang Fan walked with Xuanji and Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan explained that sects in the Supreme Sacred Realm were affiliated with the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, and that the Thirty-Six Heavens had been assigned to Grand Capital Prefecture for the Jietian Battlefield.

Jiang Fan learned about the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty and the dangers of its relations with demon beasts before arriving at Heavenly Divination Palace with Jiang Ming. After settling into his new residence, he told her she had come from the Upper Realm and that he had promised to help her find her father’s clan.

• Jiang Ming asked whether Jiang Fan would send her away, and he explained that she came from the Upper Realm and that he would help her find her father’s clan.

Jiang Fan learned about the Supreme Sacred Realm and worried that Jiang Ming might belong to a powerful Demon Race kingdom. His damaged meridians continued to prevent him from cultivating, and the chapter ended with Lin Yuan visiting him.

• Jiang Ming clung to Jiang Fan and insisted she would not leave him, so he agreed to settle in before discussing her family again.
• Jiang Fan studied the Supreme Sacred Realm, learning about its races, the eight immortal dynasties, and Heavenly Divination Palace's low standing in the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty.

• Jiang Fan tried to cultivate, but spiritual qi leaked through his damaged meridians, and he feared his remaining cultivation would dissipate.
• Lin Yuan visited Jiang Fan and asked whether he had gotten used to things over the past two days.

Daoist Xuanji examined Jiang Fan and found that his meridians were severely damaged and his Great Dao foundation had collapsed, leaving Jiang Fan’s future cultivation uncertain. Xuanji promised to seek a rare lotus to repair his meridians, then reacted with surprise when Jiang Fan showed him a golden scale belonging to Jiang Ming.

• Lin Yuan brought Jiang Fan to Daoist Xuanji, who examined Jiang Fan’s injuries and found that more than seventy percent of his meridians were damaged by an erosive force.
• Daoist Xuanji said the Nine-Orifice Meridian-Penetrating Lotus could repair Jiang Fan’s meridians and promised to search for one at Two Forms Abyss.
