Zhou Qingqing devised a Heavenly Demon Battlefield to replace the abandoned path to the Human Sovereign’s Dao of slaughter, gaining her masters’ support and setting out to build it. At the Return Ruins, she cast the Demon Pill and Qiankun Ruler into the void to begin establishing the battlefield.

• Zhou Qingqing concluded that the changed balance of the Three Daos had made the original Human Sovereign plot impossible, and proposed sending cultivators to fight the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons beyond the domain.
• Primordial Heavenly Venerate agreed to support her plan and offered the Primeval Treasure Pearl; Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerate split it into a spiritual pearl and a Demon Pill.

• Zhou Qingqing led the Jade Void Twelve Immortals toward the Return Ruins, reminding them to master the Golden Light Escape.
• At the Return Ruins, Zhou Qingqing cast the Demon Pill and Qiankun Ruler into the void to establish the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.

Zhou Qingqing created Great Dark Heaven as a battlefield for cultivators to fight Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons and pursue merit and Dao insights. After Chiyou led the first charge, Zhou Qingqing sent the Jade Void Twelve Immortals into battle to avert their coming slaughter Calamity and keep them from clashing with Heavenly Emperor Haotian.

• Zhou Qingqing sealed the Demon Pill and used it to create Great Dark Heaven, while the Jade Void Twelve Immortals observed her methods.
• Nuwa sent Human Race contenders for the Human Sovereign position to Great Dark Heaven, Houtu dispatched Chiyou and the Nine Li Tribe, and Tongtian sent Red Cloud Ancestor with Jie Sect disciples.
• Zhou Qingqing assigned Red Cloud Ancestor and Bai Ze to organize Great Dark Heaven as cultivators from across the Three Daos gathered there.
• Chiyou and his eighty-one brothers manifested the Great Dao of Soldiers and attacked the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, inspiring the other cultivators to join the battle.
• Zhou Qingqing sent the Jade Void Twelve Immortals to fight and earn merit, intending to prevent their slaughter Calamity from leading to a conflict with Heavenly Emperor Haotian.

Zhou Qingqing decided that Great Dark Heaven needed more candidates for the Human Sovereign, so she returned to the Primordial World with Bai Ze to gather figures tied to the Three Sovereigns. She began by abducting Bi Fang and Kui Ox for the battlefield, while planning to find more candidates next.

• Zhou Qingqing decided to bring everyone connected to the Three Sovereigns Fruit Position into Great Dark Heaven and summoned Bai Ze to guide her through the changed Primordial World.
• Bai Ze used his deductions to locate Bi Fang at Mount Zhangwo, Kui Ox at Flowing Wave Mountain, and Wuzhiqi in the Huai River.
• Zhou Qingqing sent the Twelve-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus to seize Bi Fang and Kui Ox and transfer them to Great Dark Heaven without revealing herself.
• Zhou Qingqing planned to find Wuzhiqi, Yinglong, Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, and Cangjie, and to arrange compensation for Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters.
• Supreme Pure Laozi watched Zhou Qingqing's latest abductions and hoped they would not harm the reputation of Daoism's First Disciple.

Zhou Qingqing tested Wuzhiqi’s instincts by having Bai Ze confront him, then caught the Sea-Supporting Purple-Gold Beam sent by her Second Master. She offered the Lingbao to Wuzhiqi, who realized he had fled for nothing.

• Zhou Qingqing asked Bai Ze to demonstrate his divine ability and test Wuzhiqi.
• Bai Ze revealed a restrained threat, and Wuzhiqi fled from the Huai River.
• Bai Ze caught Wuzhiqi and carried him back to Zhou Qingqing.
• The Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerate sent the Sea-Supporting Purple-Gold Beam across space, and Zhou Qingqing caught it.
• Zhou Qingqing offered the Lingbao to Wuzhiqi, who regretted running away.

Zhou Qingqing recruited Wuzhiqi into Daoism and directed him toward Supreme Pure Laozi’s Mount Shouyang lineage, while Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerate found Yuan Hong and accepted him into his own lineage. She then went to Mount Wuyi to secure the Treasure-Dropping Coin for Zhao Gongming, where she discovered Daoist Burning Lamp was also present.

• Zhou Qingqing offered Wuzhiqi a place in Daoism, and he agreed; she sent him to Great Dark Heaven to train before joining the Mount Shouyang lineage.
• Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerate found Yuan Hong cultivating in a plum forest and gave him a cultivation method and the Sky-Piercing White Jade Pillar.
• Zhou Qingqing decided to retrieve the Treasure-Dropping Coin from Mount Wuyi for Zhao Gongming and traveled there with Bai Ze.
• The Three Pure Ones deduced that Daoist Burning Lamp was also on Mount Wuyi as Zhou Qingqing approached the mountain.
• Zhou Qingqing broke the formation guarding the Treasure-Dropping Coin and captured the winged Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Daoist Burning Lamp went with Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao to claim a Mount Wuyi Lingbao, only to discover it was in Zhou Qingqing’s hands. He was left in a difficult position when Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao identified her Treasure-Dropping Coin as the treasure tied to their Great Dao.

• Daoist Burning Lamp instructed Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao in Dao techniques and decided to help them obtain a Lingbao they sensed on Mount Wuyi.
• Daoist Burning Lamp brought Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao to the treasure and assumed Bai Ze had obtained it, demanding that Bai Ze hand it over.
• Bai Ze moved aside and revealed Zhou Qingqing, who had taken the Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger and gathered the Treasure-Dropping Coin.
• Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao recognized the Treasure-Dropping Coin as the Lingbao related to their Great Dao, leaving Daoist Burning Lamp deeply troubled.

Daoist Burning Lamp challenged Zhou Qingqing for the Treasure-Dropping Coin, hoping it would help Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao ward off his tribulations. Zhou Qingqing accepted and claimed all three of Burning Lamp’s spiritual treasures as the stakes, leaving the contest set to begin.

• Daoist Burning Lamp overcame his fear of Zhou Qingqing and challenged her to a contest for the Treasure-Dropping Coin.
• Bai Ze observed Burning Lamp’s deferential attitude and wondered why he dared challenge Zhou Qingqing after losing to her before.
• Zhou Qingqing accepted the contest and demanded that Burning Lamp stake spiritual treasures as well.
• Daoist Burning Lamp offered a Purple-Gold Alms Bowl, a Golden Exquisite Treasure Pagoda, and one hundred and eight Prayer Beads.
• Zhou Qingqing dismissed the treasures’ value and claimed all three, and Burning Lamp agreed.

Zhou Qingqing defeated Daoist Burning Lamp with Red Lotus Karmic Fire, permanently burning away his eyebrows and hair, and claimed the spirit treasures he had wagered. Burning Lamp returned to the West seeking comfort, where the Two Sages revealed that Zhou Qingqing had collected all six great lotus thrones.

• Daoist Burning Lamp challenged Zhou Qingqing and used his Burning Lamp Sarira, while Zhou Qingqing answered with Red Lotus Karmic Fire.
• Zhou Qingqing's karmic fire burned away Burning Lamp's eyebrows and hair without letting them grow back, and Burning Lamp conceded the duel.
• Burning Lamp handed over his spirit treasures and left with Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, promising to seek compensation for them in the West.
• Zhou Qingqing put away the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl and the other treasures, while Burning Lamp returned to Mount Wuyi and told Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao they might pursue the Treasure-Dropping Coin another time.
• Burning Lamp returned to the West and asked Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti about Zhou Qingqing's lotus thrones; Daoist Zhunti listed six, including the World-Destroying Black Lotus and Merit Golden Lotus.

Zhou Qingqing sent Bai Ze to gather the Dragon Inscription, Phoenix Register, and Demon Script, then carved them alongside innate Daoist script onto a stele beside the Luo River. Cangjie arrived and recognized the writings as the means to break his spiritual shackles, beginning to study them.

• Zhou Qingqing sent Bai Ze to Mount Shouyang, the East Sea, and Undying Fire Mountain to collect the three races’ scripts using her treasures as tokens.
• Zhou Qingqing borrowed Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden from Yaochi and encouraged Haotian to send Heavenly Court cultivators to train in Great Dark Heaven.
• Bai Ze obtained the Dragon Inscription from Azure Dragon, the Phoenix Register from the Phoenix Clan’s ruler, and the Demon Script from a new Zhuang Zhou on Mount Shouyang.
• Zhou Qingqing carved the three scripts and innate Daoist script onto a stele beside the Luo River to attract Cangjie, while Bai Ze watched for the destined visitor.
• Cangjie reached the stele, sensed that its writings could break the shackles on his spirit, and sat down to study them with his double pupils.

Cangjie created writing for the Human Race and rose directly to Zenith Heaven through the power of the Human Dao. Nuwa accepted him into Human Teaching and gave him a cultivation technique, while Zhou Qingqing recruited him to help develop the Human Sovereign Fruit Position and received merit steles as protection against a possible Daoism calamity.

• Cangjie studied the innate races’ scripts and Dao writings, then created human characters and gathered Human Dao merit.
• Cangjie’s spiritual power surged, carrying his cultivation from mortal realms to Daluo Golden Immortal and directly into Zenith Heaven.
• Nuwa accepted Cangjie as her disciple, gave him the Cinnabar Armor Azure Script, and agreed that he would assist Zhou Qingqing before returning to Nuwa Palace.
• Nuwa transformed the four steles into merit Lingbao and warned Zhou Qingqing that Daoism might face a calamity.
• Zhou Qingqing used the Qiankun Cauldron to make the steles innate and asked Bai Ze to deliver them to her three Masters and Primal Phoenix.

Zhou Qingqing watched Cangjie and the cultivators battle in Great Dark Heaven, considering who might become the Human Sovereign as her allies grew stronger. She contacted Di Jun through Bai Ze to ask for a reward, and Di Jun replied that he had nothing she wanted.

• Zhou Qingqing sent Cangjie into the Heavenly Demon Battlefield and considered Cangjie and Chiyou as possible paths to the Human Sovereign.
• Chiyou and the Nine Li Tribe fought with growing strength, while Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters displayed their abilities on the battlefield.
• The Jade Void Twelve Immortals and Wuzhiqi fought the Heavenly Demons, and Zhou Qingqing noted that the merit they gained kept the Twelve Immortals' minds clear of killing intent.
• Zhou Qingqing asked Bai Ze to deliver information to Di Jun and arrange a meeting, then spoke to Di Jun through a water mirror.
• Zhou Qingqing asked Di Jun for something in return for helping Bai Ze, and Di Jun said he had nothing she wanted.

Zhou Qingqing fused Di Jun’s Ultimate Dao Emperor Qi with Dijiang’s essence blood into the Xuanyuan Sword and sent it to the Heavenly Demon Battlefield. A human named Di Hong claimed the sword and began gathering powerful allies, while Bai Ze recorded his rise.

• Zhou Qingqing asked Di Jun for a strand of Ultimate Dao Emperor Qi to test whether a human could bear it and rise to prominence, and Di Jun sent it to her.
• Zhou Qingqing obtained a drop of Dijiang’s essence blood, then fused the two powers into the Xuanyuan Sword and ordered Bai Ze to place it in the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.
• Di Hong found the Xuanyuan Sword, refined its power, and declared that his chance to rise had arrived.
• Di Hong began gathering forces from Great Dark Heaven, including Wuzhiqi, Bi Fang, Kui Ox, Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, and Cangjie.
• Bai Ze recorded Di Hong’s growing fortunes and concluded that a human had indeed carried Di Jun’s Ultimate Dao Emperor Qi.

Zhou Qingqing’s unconventional plan brought Di Hong and Chiyou into a contest for the Human Sovereign fruition, while Bai Ze inferred her intentions and recorded what he witnessed. Di Hong resolved to use the Xuanyuan Sword to unite the Human Race and overcome every obstacle.

• Zhou Qingqing speculated aloud that Di Hong might be Chiyou, and Bai Ze recorded the claim in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
• Bai Ze watched Di Hong’s followers gather around him as the Xuanyuan Sword’s brilliance rivaled Chiyou’s Tiger Soul Saber.
• Bai Ze realized that Zhou Qingqing had created the Heavenly Demon Battlefield to let Di Hong and Chiyou compete, regardless of who won.
• Zhou Qingqing kept the Jade Void Twelve Immortals out of the Human Sovereign’s attainment, and Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerate recognized that avoiding involvement still brought benefits.
• Di Hong resolved to wield the Xuanyuan Sword for the Human Race and gather the strength to sweep away every obstacle.

Chiyou became the Ancestral Witch of Soldiers, and Di Hong established the Xuanyuan Divine Court in Great Dark Heaven and attained the Human Sovereign position, completing the Three Sovereigns Fruit Position. After the Human Dao celebrated his ascension, Di Hong learned that Zhou Qingqing, master of Great Dark Heaven, was the Xuanyuan Sword’s true master and resolved to thank her.

• Chiyou wielded the Tiger Soul Saber and, cheered on by his eighty-one brothers, broke through to the Ancestral Witch realm as the Ancestral Witch of Soldiers.
• Chiyou and the Nine Li Tribe used the Great Dao of Soldiers to fight the Heavenly Demons with vastly increased strength, while Bai Ze recognized the breakthrough’s significance for the Witch Race and Earth Dao.
• Di Hong drew on his experience in Great Dark Heaven and the Human Dao’s power to establish the Xuanyuan Divine Court and pursue the Human Sovereign Fruit Position.
• Nuwa gave Di Hong the Primordial Purple Qi, and he proclaimed the Xuanyuan Divine Court, attained the Human Sovereign position, and completed the Three Sovereigns Fruit Position.
• The Human Sovereign’s attainment spread throughout the Primordial World, brought merit and auspicious signs to Great Dark Heaven, and inspired cultivators to study the Three Sovereigns’ principles.
• After becoming the Human Sovereign, Di Hong discovered that Zhou Qingqing was the Xuanyuan Sword’s true master and decided to thank her.

After Di Hong attained sainthood as the Human Sovereign, Zhou Qingqing asked him to oversee Great Dark Heaven and pass down methods to the Human Race. He created the Inner Canon, Outer Canon, and Yin Talisman Classic, which Zhou Qingqing’s treasure collected.

• Di Hong thanked Bai Ze and Zhou Qingqing for helping him attain the Dao as the Human Sovereign.
• Zhou Qingqing told Di Hong she would soon leave Great Dark Heaven and asked him to look after it through his Xuanyuan Divine Court.
• Zhou Qingqing directed Di Hong to create methods addressing the Human Race’s inner and outer aspects and the transformation of their Yin spirits.
• With Cangjie present, Di Hong wrote the Inner Canon and Outer Canon in Human script, then composed the Yin Talisman Classic.
• Zhou Qingqing’s treasure flew from her Lotus Space and collected all three methods.

Zhou Qingqing discovered that the Book of Life and Death had transformed after absorbing Di Hong’s Human Sovereign methods, revealing itself as a leaf of the Chaos Azure Lotus and raising her cultivation. The chapter left her at the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal realm, while the Three Pure Ones considered how the Earth Book and Heaven Book might similarly awaken.

• The Book of Life and Death appeared and recorded the Human Sovereign method created by Di Hong.
• Zhou Qingqing realized that absorbing the Human Race methods had connected the Human Book to her as a component of the Chaos Azure Lotus.
• The Three Pure Ones concluded that the Book of Life and Death, the Earth Book, and the Investiture of the Gods List were the Azure Lotus’s leaves of Humanity, Earth, and Heaven.
• Zhou Qingqing began sensing the Human Book’s transformation and hoped to obtain the Earth Book from Zhen Yuanzi and study the Investiture of the Gods List later.
• Di Hong sensed the Human Dao rejoicing as Zhou Qingqing’s cultivation rose to the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal realm.

Zhou Qingqing left the Heavenly Demon Battlefield and brought Chiyou’s party back to the Nine Nether Realm before visiting Zhen Yuanzi. She reunited with Yaoji and found Zhen Yuanzi emerging from seclusion, joking that she had come to mooch off his ripe Ginseng Fruit.

• Zhou Qingqing entrusted Great Dark Heaven to Di Hong and left the battlefield with the Jade Void Twelve Immortals, Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiao Sisters, and Wuzhiqi.
• Chiyou returned to the Nine Nether Realm to report to Lady Houtu and Dijiang, then bid Zhou Qingqing farewell.
• Zhou Qingqing arrived at Zhen Yuanzi’s mountain and greeted Yaoji, noticing that she had grown taller.
• Zhen Yuanzi emerged from seclusion and teased Zhou Qingqing for coming to mooch off his ripe Ginseng Fruit.

At the Ginseng Fruit feast, Zhou Qingqing got Zhen Yuanzi to hand over his Earth Book, which she said was part of her Chaos Azure Lotus. Zhen Yuanzi then asked her to test his Universe in the Sleeve, and she agreed, leaving the gathered immortals eager to see their contest.

• Zhou Qingqing lamented being seated alone at the feast while the Three Pure Ones secretly grumbled on her behalf.
• Zhou Qingqing told Zhen Yuanzi that the Earth Book was part of her Chaos Azure Lotus and that she needed to reclaim it.
• Zhen Yuanzi severed his connection to the Earth Book and gave it to Zhou Qingqing, who praised him for his generosity.
• Zhen Yuanzi asked Zhou Qingqing to exchange moves with his Universe in the Sleeve, and Yaoji and the gathered cultivators reacted with surprise and excitement.
• Zhou Qingqing agreed to the contest, believing it could help Zhen Yuanzi advance toward becoming an Earth Dao Saint and enable the Earth Book's transformation.

Zhou Qingqing and Zhen Yuanzi tested their divine abilities, with Zhou Qingqing using the Leaf of Humanity to add the mysteries of life and death to his Universe in the Sleeve. Her attack shattered the sleeve’s vast space, leaving the disciples stunned.

• Zhen Yuanzi used Universe in the Sleeve against Zhou Qingqing while the disciples watched.
• Zhou Qingqing manifested the Leaf of Humanity and explained that its mysteries of life and death could give Zhen Yuanzi insight into the Human Dao.
• Zhen Yuanzi drew Zhou Qingqing’s divine ability into his sleeve, but she remained unaffected.
• The life-and-death mysteries multiplied inside the sleeve, filled Heaven and Earth, and shattered its opening.

Zhou Qingqing broke Zhen Yuanzi’s Universe in the Sleeve, helping him realize that the Earth Dao needed its own living beings. Zhen Yuanzi created the Spirit Race and established the Spirit Teaching, becoming the Earth Dao’s second Saint, while Zhou Qingqing was disappointed that the Earth Book did not transform into the Earth Leaf.

• Bai Ze and Zhen Yuanzi recognized that Zhou Qingqing had broken Universe in the Sleeve by identifying its lack of people.
• Zhen Yuanzi realized that spirits could inhabit his universe and fulfill the role of living beings in the Earth Dao.
• Zhen Yuanzi created the Spirit Race, with spiritual bodies including Ox-Head and Horse-Face forming before him.
• Houtu gave Zhen Yuanzi the Primordial Purple Qi, and Supreme Purity Laozi presented him with the Qiankun Diagram to suppress the Spirit Teaching’s Fortune.
• Zhen Yuanzi established the Spirit Teaching in the Nine Nether Realm, used the Qiankun Diagram to suppress its Fortune, and became the Earth Dao’s second Saint.
• Zhou Qingqing checked the Earth Book after Zhen Yuanzi’s ascension, but it did not transform into the Earth Leaf.

After Zhen Yuanzi became an Earth Dao Saint, Zhou Qingqing decided the Earth Dao needed further development for the Earth Book to transform. She provoked Dijiang to pursue sainthood, setting the next Earth Dao effort in motion.

• Zhen Yuanzi attained Earth Dao sainthood, and the Ancestral Witches gathered at Calf-Hugging Mountain to congratulate him.
• After Zhen Yuanzi’s banquet, Supreme Pure Laozi left, and Zhou Qingqing fought the Ancestral Witches with the Twelve Capital Heaven Divine Thunders.
• Zhou Qingqing concluded that the Earth Dao needed to advance further and considered helping Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin attain sainthood.
• Zhou Qingqing taunted Dijiang about Zhen Yuanzi’s achievement and challenged him to stop settling for learning her thunder arts.
• Dijiang realized that, after Houtu, he should have been the first among the Ancestral Witches to attain sainthood.

Zhou Qingqing could not advise Dijiang on attaining the Dao, so she arranged for the Ancestral Witches to train her junior brothers and sisters in the Nine Nether Realm. Watching their progress inspired her to form a new idea about attaining the Dao, though its connection to Jade Cauldron and Yellow Dragon remained unclear.

• Dijiang asked Zhou Qingqing for advice on attaining the Dao, but she admitted that she had no idea and suggested that he train her junior brothers and sisters to steady their states of mind.
• Dijiang agreed to summon Nine Yin and Zhurong to help train the Daoism disciples in the Nine Nether Realm, while Zhou Qingqing planned to consider how to turn the Earth Book into the Earth Leaf.
• Bai Ze watched as the Ancestral Witches trained the disciples, and Zhou Qingqing observed that Wuzhiqi, Chijingzi, and Qingxu had made notable progress.
• Zhou Qingqing thought that Jade Cauldron and Yellow Dragon had improved greatly under Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin's guidance.
• Zhou Qingqing suddenly realized she had an idea, leaving the Three Pure Ones wondering how Jade Cauldron and Yellow Dragon related to attaining the Dao.

Zhou Qingqing arranged for Jade Cauldron True Person and Dijiang to forge nine cauldrons, which stabilized and expanded the Nine Nether Realm. Dijiang used the transformation of the cauldrons to complete the ninth revolution and become an Earth Dao Saint, while Jade Cauldron True Person gained merit and insight.

• Zhou Qingqing summoned Dijiang and Jade Cauldron True Person, proposed forging nine cauldrons, and assigned Chiyou to gather divine materials.
• Jade Cauldron True Person trained under Zhou Qingqing and forged nine cauldrons, while Dijiang worked out how to use the Space Great Dao to stabilize the Nine Nether Realm.
• Dijiang infused the cauldrons with his Ancestral Witch True Body, raising them to top-grade postnatal Lingbao, and Zhou Qingqing transformed them into top-grade innate Lingbao with the Qiankun Cauldron.
• Dijiang placed the Nine Cauldrons at spatial nodes across the Nine Nether Realm, where they absorbed turbid qi and transformed it into Netherworld qi, expanding and stabilizing the realm.
• Houtu sent Primordial Purple Qi to Dijiang as he applied the cauldrons' transformation to his own body and completed the ninth revolution, becoming an Earth Dao Saint.
• Jade Cauldron True Person received Earth Dao merit and new insights, while Bai Ze recorded the formation of the Nine Cauldrons, the expansion of the Nine Nether, and Dijiang's ascension.

After Dijiang attained sainthood, Zhou Qingqing devised a plan to use Zhu Jiuyin’s Time Great Dao laws and Yellow Dragon True Person’s ancestry to travel back to the Dragon-Han Calamity. Zhu Jiuyin began turning back time, and Yellow Dragon saw a mighty Divine Dragon.

• Yellow Dragon True Person eagerly asked Zhu Jiuyin and the Northern Yin Great Emperor how Zhou Qingqing would arrange their next steps.
• Zhou Qingqing arrived with Bai Ze and asked Zhu Jiuyin whether he could send Yellow Dragon True Person back to the Dragon-Han Calamity using his Time Great Dao laws.
• Zhou Qingqing reasoned that Yellow Dragon’s distinguished bloodline could serve as a temporal anchor and trigger his ancestral reversion.
• Primordial Heavenly Venerate recognized that Yellow Dragon could gain Ancestral Dragon insights, while Zhou Qingqing’s larger plan was also tied to the Dragon Clan.
• Zhu Jiuyin used the Time Great Dao laws to turn back time, and Yellow Dragon True Person saw a mighty Divine Dragon.

Zhou Qingqing led Bai Ze, Yellow Dragon, and Zhu Jiuyin to Mount Zhangwei to meet Candle Dragon, a dragon who commanded time. Candle Dragon learned the Dragon Clan’s future and his own death, then offered to help Zhu Jiuyin attain the Dao and identified Zhou Qingqing as the one to ask about how.

• Yellow Dragon began transforming toward the black-and-yellow ancestral bloodline after witnessing an Ancestral Dragon in the river of time.
• Zhou Qingqing directed Bai Ze to take the group to Mount Zhangwei, where they found Candle Dragon.
• Candle Dragon noticed the travelers, and he and Zhu Jiuyin communicated through their time divine abilities.
• Zhu Jiuyin told Candle Dragon that the Dragon Clan would fail in the Calamity but later recover, and that Yellow Dragon would help restore its glory.
• Candle Dragon accepted that he would perish in the Calamity and offered to help Zhu Jiuyin attain the Dao.
• Candle Dragon used temporal deduction to conclude that Zhou Qingqing held the key to helping Zhu Jiuyin.
