• Fang Chen and the myna bird agreed that Little Crane should not carry them into the Xuanhuang Origin Realm, and Fang Chen chose to scout a quiet route into the Nine Nether Mountain Range himself.

• Fang Chen emerged elsewhere in the mountains, where his sudden arrival destroyed several floating islands, and continued until a proximity-triggered barrier appeared before him.

Fang Chen infiltrated the Ye Family’s Core Region by slipping through the Mysterious Yellow Sky Curtain, while Ye Family Saints entered in pursuit and sounded an alarm. The search tools failed to find Fang Chen, who stayed still as a detection Disc passed over him, leaving the Ye Family to narrow its search.

• Fang Chen used the Reincarnation Eye Secret Technique to find a flaw in the Barrier and entered the Nine Nether Mountain Range’s Core Region.

• The Ye Family elder concluded that the Star Compass could not find the intruder and summoned Spirit Dog Saint’s Sky-Sniffing Dog.

• Sky-Sniffing Dog locked down the space around Fang Chen and declared that no one had ever escaped from him, while Fang Chen challenged his confidence.

Fang Chen escaped into Chaos Space using a Void Shattering Bead, but the Sky-Sniffing Dog and its allies caught up when he emerged. As the Sky-Sniffing Dog prepared to strike, Master Hua blasted its face with corrosive Bird Droppings, leaving it howling and unable to remove them.

• Fang Chen crushed a Void Shattering Bead and fled through Chaos Space while the Sky-Sniffing Dog and the others pursued him.
• Fang Chen emerged from Chaos Space in the Nine Nether Mountain Range, where the Sky-Sniffing Dog and the Red-robed Saint restrained him with Spatial Suppression Force.
• Fang Chen called Little Crane, and Master Hua sprang from his robes and covered the Sky-Sniffing Dog's face with Bird Droppings.
• The Bird Droppings corroded the Sky-Sniffing Dog's flesh and clung to its face despite its attempts to remove them.
• Master Hua mocked the howling Sky-Sniffing Dog as the stench overwhelmed its keen sense of smell.

Fang Chen escaped the Ye Family’s attack with Little Crane, while the Sky-Sniffing Dog tried to wash the corrosive Bird Droppings from its face in Sky Mirror Lake. The lake became poisoned, killing fish and drawing out the Lake Venerable, who recognized the nine-tribulation Sky-Sniffing Dog.

• Fang Chen told Little Crane to flee, and she swallowed him and the others before burrowing into the void.
• The Sky-Sniffing Dog flew to Sky Mirror Lake to wash off the Bird Droppings, leaving a trail of poisonous black mist that the Red-robed Saint collected in a Gourd.

• The Sky-Sniffing Dog flew out of the lake, and the Lake Venerable recognized it with fear as a senior who had survived nine Saint Tribulations.

The Myna bird’s Bird Droppings badly poisoned the Sky-Sniffing Dog, forcing Fang Chen and his companions to escape while the Red-robed Saint pursued it and tried to contain the black mist. Fang Chen sent Little Crane to find Ye Kong and Ye Qingci, while the Sky-Sniffing Dog reached the Spirit Dog Saint’s secluded chamber and begged for help.

• The Sky-Sniffing Dog fled toward the Xuanhuang Origin Realm, and the Red-robed Saint followed to collect the poisonous mist.

• The Sky-Sniffing Dog told the Spirit Dog Saint that a myna bird had dropped corrosive, painfully sticky droppings on its face while it chased an intruder in the Ye Family's Forbidden Grounds.
