• Luo Hong explained to Yuan Yao that he had used the Sky Breaking Spear to shift Ghost Witch out of his seals, then followed Ghost Witch toward his destination.

He entered a hidden chamber beneath Yama’s Mansion, where Old Ancestor Milo’s message revealed a prepared restriction that could let Luo Hong claim an entire realm by deceiving its Heavenly Dao.

• Luo Hong discovered that his Primordial Divine Abilities had grown stronger and formed the Primordial Divine Shuttle from Innate One Qi Swords and the Little Black Ball.
• The True Lightning Heavenly Net combined the Reincarnation Law and Space Law to open a passage through the restriction, and Luo Hong entered it.
• Yin Hua and the two Nether Cultivators arrived; the restrictions forced the True Lightning Heavenly Net to insult them, and it fought them when the Ox-headed Nether Cultivator attacked.
• Luo Hong found an altar and read Old Ancestor Milo’s jade-slip message, learning that Milo had prepared an Illusion World Restriction that could transfer an entire realm by deceiving its Heavenly Dao.

Luo Hong began Milo’s Illusion World Restriction to absorb the Netherworld’s power into the Netherworld Grotto-heaven, drawing the realm’s attention while True Lightning Heavenly Net entered the Space Passage with the Yellow Springs Ghost Hand and a Black Jade Box. As the Netherworld began collapsing into a black-cloud hand, its forces gathered at Yama’s Mansion, where Luo Hong’s controlled guards stood by the Silver Vortex.

When the Bone Emperor arrived and attacked the puppets guarding Yama’s Mansion, Luo Hong intervened, but the Bone Emperor’s overwhelming strength left the battle unresolved.

• Luo Hong used his puppets to gather and stall the Da Luo Nether Cultivators around Yama’s Mansion, then checked on True Lightning Heavenly Net’s work at the Golden Altar.
• True Lightning Heavenly Net connected the Eye of the Thunder Ancestor to the Black River Death Cloud, supplying the Altar with death power to refine the Yellow Springs Ghost Hand.
• The Bone Emperor arrived on a giant beast and ordered the Black-Faced Man to attack Yin Hua and the other puppets.
• Yin Hua and the twelve Illusionary Puppets formed a battle formation, defeated the Black-Faced Man’s Black Armored Ghost, and forced him to retreat injured.
• The Bone Emperor’s bone-white wave restrained the puppets and began draining their power, so Luo Hong entered their ghost general and used the Mitian Bell to counter the attack.
• The Bone Emperor struck the restored white-armored ghost general with a devastating blow, unleashing a Space Storm that tore apart several nearby Da Luo Nether Cultivators.

• The Bone Emperor’s power faded, and his body collapsed into ruined bones; the Black-Faced Man survived and tried to flee.
• Two more golden-robed Luo Hongs emerged from the Silver Vortex, while one collected a storage Nether Artifact and guarded the vortex; Luo Hong explained the shuttle’s power to Silver Fairy and declined to refine an artifact yet.
• Hidden Netherworld Dao Ancestors acknowledged the Bone Emperor’s death and chose to remain in their cave abodes rather than avenge him.

Luo Hong left the Netherworld with the newly ascended First-grade Immortal Artifact Yellow Springs Ghost Hand and arrived in the Absolute Sword Great Immortal Realm. Seeking a place for secluded cultivation, he decided to join a group hunting a Da Luo Fierce Beast so he could perform good deeds before severing his good corpse.

• The Yellow Springs Ghost Hand ascended into a First-grade Immortal Artifact, and Luo Hong took it along with True Lightning Heavenly Net into the greatly expanded Netherworld Grotto-heaven.
• Luo Hong told Yuan Yao that the grotto-heaven now held abundant Heavenly Nether Power and Da Luo yin beasts, then used the collapsing altar space to cross back to the Immortal World.
• Luo Hong stopped a Space Storm over Three Rivers City, met Qin Meirou and the Thin Man, and learned that he had arrived in the Absolute Sword Great Immortal Realm.

• Luo Hong decided to join the hunt, intending to gain a secluded cultivation site while doing good deeds before severing his good corpse.

Luo Hong joined Daoist Jinglong and the other cultivators on their expedition to kill the Golden Mountain Rat and help rebuild the Seven Swords Sect. As the battle began, Luo Hong suspected the beast had a reason for settling in the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range and secretly sent out tens of millions of ghost soldiers to investigate.

• Daoist Jinglong and Yang Lin led their allies toward Three Rivers City, where Luo Hong revealed that he had compelled Lang Kun and Qin Meirou to disclose the expedition plans.

• Luo Hong joined the group at the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range and agreed to remain outside the formation while the others lured out and fought the beast.
• After Qin Meirou and the others took their positions, Wang and Xue summoned a storm of sword rain that drove the Golden Mountain Rat from underground.
• Yang Lin and three other cultivators attacked the Golden Mountain Rat, but its defenses and rapid healing prevented them from seriously injuring it.
• Luo Hong suspected the beast had been drawn to the mountain range for a reason and secretly opened the Netherworld Grotto-heaven to dispatch tens of millions of ghost soldiers.

Luo Hong searched the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range with ghost soldiers while Yang Lin and the others fought the Golden Mountain Rat, whose golden mountain concealed a stone tablet controlling it. After the tablet overwhelmed the sword cultivators, Luo Hong destroyed it with the Yellow Springs Ghost Hand and discovered that his Primordial Immortal Yuan might explain his ability to fuse four kinds of Law Power.

• Luo Hong sent ten million ghost soldiers throughout the mountain range while Yang Lin and the others battled the Golden Mountain Rat inside the Myriad Immortals Sword Formation.
• The Leshui brothers and the sword cultivators weakened the beast and severed its tail, but Luo Hong sensed something strange inside its golden mountain.
• Yang Lin ignored Luo Hong's warning and shattered the golden mountain, revealing a rune-covered Yellow Stone Tablet that controlled the Golden Mountain Rat and unleashed the True Earth Law.
• The tablet's attack overwhelmed Yang Lin and the other sword cultivators, but Luo Hong struck the beast with the Yellow Springs Ghost Hand and rescued them.
• Luo Hong used the Formless Netherworld Finger to shatter the tablet and destroy the Golden Mountain Rat, then wondered whether his Primordial Immortal Yuan let him fuse four types of Law Power.

Luo Hong helped Daoist Jinglong recover the Seven Swords Sect’s immortal swords, then uncovered a hidden cave where You Wangxing and Luo Hong’s disciple Fan Mengyi were concealed. As You Wangxing revealed the Tianyan Temple’s crisis, the Tianyan Instrument spoke to Luo Hong and said only he could resolve the calamity.

• Luo Hong destroyed the Golden Mountain Rat and the human-faced stone stele, then returned the damaged immortal swords to Yang Lin and the others.
• Leshan, Leshui, Yang Lin, and the other sect leaders left the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range, while Daoist Jinglong refused to abandon the Seven Swords Sect.
• Luo Hong warned Daoist Jinglong that the sect had attracted a Dao ancestor’s attention and led him to a concealed cave containing You Wangxing and Fan Mengyi.
• Daoist Jinglong learned that You Wangxing and Fan Mengyi were connected to the disaster that nearly destroyed the Seven Swords Sect, and Luo Hong stopped him from attacking You Wangxing.
• You Wangxing showed Luo Hong an image of the Tianyan Temple Master meeting Xuanyuan Jie, and Luo Hong concluded that the temple master had been forced to Combine with Dao.
• The Tianyan Instrument produced a tiny white figure, which told Luo Hong that only he could resolve the calamity.

Luo Hong learned that the Immortal World would be destroyed within ten thousand years and bargained with the Tianyan Instrument for clues and resources in exchange for his help. After suspecting Xuanyuan Jie was targeting him as the Primordial Great Demon, Luo Hong prepared to investigate the threat.

• The Tianyan Instrument’s artifact spirit revealed that Fan Mengyi was cultivating in Tianyan Space and would awaken after breaking through her current realm.
• The artifact spirit predicted the Immortal World’s destruction within ten thousand years, and Luo Hong suspected a hidden calamity beyond Gu Huo Jin’s plans.

• Luo Hong suspected Xuanyuan Jie had attacked the Tianyan Temple Master to use the Tianyan Instrument against him, and he told Silver Fairy that others besides Tianyan Temple might be targeting him.

Luo Hong hid You Wangxing and Daoist Jinglong from the Tianyan Temple Master's divinations, then moved the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range and the Seven Swords Sect disciples into his Netherworld Grotto-heaven. He sent A Zi and Xue'er toward the Golden Source Great Immortal Domain to seek the Green Fox Clan and practice rewarding good and punishing evil while he cultivated.

• Luo Hong persuaded You Wangxing to enter the Netherworld Grotto-heaven, and You Wangxing gave him the Tongtian Sword Canon to pass on to Fan Mengyi.
• Luo Hong brought Daoist Jinglong and the Seven Absolutes Mountain Range into his Grotto-heaven so the Seven Swords Sect disciples could shelter there.
• Luo Hong left a Time Illusion Body to watch over the range, then met Daoist Jinglong in Three Rivers City and took him into the Grotto-heaven.
• Luo Hong sent A Zi and Xue'er toward the Golden Source Great Immortal Domain, ordering them to watch for injustices and report them while he cultivated.
• A Zi planned to have the pair act every half year, and Xue'er volunteered to punish evildoers under the identity of Tongtian Cult Master.

Luo Hong upgraded the Sky Breaking Spear into a First-grade Immortal Artifact, thwarted the Space Dao Ancestor’s attempt to seize it, and began cultivating in seclusion.
