Luo Hong and Xiang Zhili investigated a hidden lake array and discovered that it concealed one segment of the Bloodworm Mother, sealed by an ancient Three Yuan Returning Formation. Silver Fairy explained how the formation used the Bloodworm Mother’s divided body to sustain its own seal, while the Blood Cry Ancestor’s plans remained unclear.

• Luo Hong sent his Flying Purple-striped Scorpions underwater, then had them enter the array without Spiritual Power and locate a crater containing an ancient formation and a trembling aura.

• Xiang Zhili identified the array as the Three Yuan Returning Formation, and Silver Fairy explained that it drew on the Demonic Power of the Bloodworm Mother’s other sealed segments to keep each segment sealed.

Luo Hong and Xiang Zhili argued over whether to break the seal protecting the Bloodworm Mother, then pretended to resume their partnership with Phantom Shift Talismans. Xiang Zhili secretly planned to use Luo Hong to weaken the demon and test Luo Hong’s strength, while Luo Hong stopped beyond Xiang Zhili’s divine sense range and prepared a surprise with the Blood Spear Fragment.

• Luo Hong identified the blood restrictions around the stone platform as fragile and proposed destroying them, but Xiang Zhili stopped him because he wanted to question the Bloodworm Mother.

• Blood Cry Ancestor detonated his physical body, scattering corrosive blood qi around the Purple-striped Scorpion Leader.

After revealing that his flames carried Threads of Law, Luo Hong gained Xiang Zhili’s cooperation and continued the battle in close combat.

The Bloodworm Mother detonated its attack and tried to flee to the third sealing site, but Xiang Zhili intercepted it and smashed nearly half its demon body.

• Xiang Zhili used the Form-Destroying Golden Light to destroy the Parasitic Blood Worms, while Luo Hong returned to human form after using the Formless Spirit Merging Talisman.

• The Bloodworm Mother broke through the illusion array at the third sealing site and found the Blood Cry Ancestor sitting among minced flesh with nine Blood-Colored Light Spheres revolving around him.

Blood Cry Ancestor used an altered Blood Corpse Longevity Technique to struggle for control of the Bloodworm Mother's body, while Xiang Zhili deployed nine ancient bronze cauldrons against it. Luo Hong learned that the cauldrons were World Protecting Treasures tied to the Heavenly Dao, which could be used against the foreign Bloodworm Mother.

• Xiang Zhili recognized signs of the Blood Corpse Longevity Technique and scattered nine bronze cauldrons containing silver liquid around the Bloodworm Mother.
• Luo Hong sensed the law power in the cauldrons and realized that the Heavenly Dao had not erased it because the liquid followed its rules.
• Silver Fairy explained that the cauldrons were World Protecting Treasures made to help a realm's inhabitants fight invaders, and that the foreign Bloodworm Mother could draw on their power.

Luo Hong realized the Blood Cry Ancestor had fused with the Bloodworm Mother to create a new being, the Blood Spirit Holy Mother, which no longer counted as otherworldly. Xiang Zhili’s World Protecting Treasures therefore failed to summon the tribulation, and the chapter ended as the fading cloud unleashed a lightning flood dragon at him.

• Luo Hong recognized that the Blood Cry Ancestor and Bloodworm Mother had fused into a new consciousness that retained both their memories.
• Luo Hong deduced that the Blood Cry Ancestor had sought primordial spirit contamination and fusion rather than simple body seizure.

• Silver Fairy explained that the fusion had erased the creature’s remaining Otherworldly Aura, making the World Protecting Treasures ineffective.
• An azure lightning flood dragon burst from the shrinking cloud and struck toward Xiang Zhili.

Xiang Zhili took the Tribulation Cloud’s backlash and prepared to battle the Blood Spirit Holy Mother, who summoned a powerful blood ape manifestation.

• The Blood Spirit Holy Mother transformed into a seductive-looking figure and summoned a blood ape manifestation to attack Luo Hong and Xiang Zhili.
• Xiang Zhili produced a bronze longsword and urged Luo Hong to use the ancient talisman’s power, while the Blood Spirit Holy Mother demanded the talisman.
• The blood ape fired a blood-colored sphere into the sky, creating a dome that cut off the heavenly mysteries and trapped Luo Hong, Xiang Zhili, and the Blood Spirit Holy Mother.
• Luo Hong recognized that the barrier would let him draw down a lightning tribulation and activated the Heavenly Mystery Jade as the blood ape reached for him.
• Violet light and faint thunder emerged from the jade, and Xiang Zhili sensed an aura of extreme threat from Luo Hong’s direction.

• Luo Hong’s Purple Heaven Divine Thunder shattered Blood Spirit Holy Mother’s defenses and reduced her to a badly injured, shrunken form, while the backlash wounded Luo Hong.

• Luo Hong sealed Blood Spirit Holy Mother's Origin Essence Blood and found a Heavenly Question Jade Slip in Blood Cry Ancestor's storage ring.
• Xiang Zhili offered Luo Hong a temporary place at Dangqi Mountain, and the two parted ways to pursue their separate goals.
• The Flying Purple-striped Scorpion flew away from Gong Xuehua, and Luo Hong brought her back to the rocky mountain where the Gong and Ning Families waited.

• Luo Hong suspected a Blood Cry Sect disciple had passed the jade slip to Blood Cry Ancestor and resolved to question the Fang Family Head.
• Luo Hong realized that the Threads of Law within his forehead wounds would keep them from healing until he removed or wore away the alien spiritual qi.

Luo Hong emerged from the Five Elements Mountain Range, ordered his incarnation to investigate the Fang Family, and returned to Heavenly Palace Mountain with the Gong Family. Luzhu accepted him as her master and began cultivating a technique he had created specifically for her.

• Luo Hong learned that the Ma Clan and Fang Family had been wiped out, the Song Family had only Song Junlin left, and the Gong Family had emerged almost unscathed.
• Luo Hong noticed the Fang Family Head rushing home and sent his incarnation to investigate the Fang Family while sparing some members for questioning.
• The Gong Family returned to Heavenly Palace Mountain, where Luzhu heard Gong Xuehua recount the dangers of the journey and decided to honor her promise to Luo Hong.
• Luzhu knelt and acknowledged Luo Hong as her master, and he gave her a Yellow Dragon Pill and a cultivation technique tailored to her.
• Luo Hong guided Luzhu as she practiced the new technique, and she quickly found it easier and faster to cultivate than the Minor Water Origin Technique.
