Jiang Ping An attacked a Black Water Alliance mining area and confronted elder Yuan Zirong, a God Core Realm Early Stage deity. After he fought her on equal terms, he dragged her into his Devouring Space, where his laws rose to her cultivation level and his Devouring Power began draining her divine power.

• Yuan Zirong learned that the killer who had slain five Divine Power Realm Peak deities remained unidentified and ordered her subordinates to increase mining by capturing people.

After learning that Jiang Ping An killed his sister Yuan Zirong, Yuan Zheng rampaged through Number Three Mining Area but failed to find Jiang Ping An’s true identity. Hidden in the mine, Jiang Ping An stabilized his cultivation and learned that the Pseudo Shadow Kill Technique required far more divine artifacts to become the true Shadow Kill Technique.

Six months later, the Black Water Alliance discovered him during a shipment, and he wiped out its forces with his enhanced Undying Demon Bone, leaving Guo Feng alive.

• The Crystal Ball explained the three levels of the "Shadow Kill Technique"'s stealth arts and said Jiang Ping An could restore the first two by sacrificing his divine artifacts.

• Yuan Zheng went to borrow a Spirit Guiding Insect from the Seven Killings Sect, while the elder searched the mine without detecting Jiang Ping An, who was concealed in the mineral vein with Tuanzi’s help.

Jiang Ping An bought deposits on rare Divine Dao Rule Books and Taiyin Divine Water, then devised a way to exploit the reward on his Wanted Poster. A month later, Wu Qianfeng went to meet the God Core Realm Early Stage informant who claimed to know the murderer’s whereabouts.

• Jiang Ping An returned to Black Volcano Island in disguise and saw the Black Water Alliance offering Refined Coral Juice for information about or the capture of his portrait.
• Jiang Ping An learned that the Freedom Alliance's chamber of commerce lacked the rare rule books and Taiyin Divine Water he wanted, so he paid deposits to have them transferred.

He lured Wu Qianfeng into accompanying him to a staged meeting near Taiyi Palace, where he left the story preparing to travel with his supposed contact to the Blood Coral Battlefield.

• Jiang Ping An and Wu Qianfeng traveled to a rocky island near Taiyi Palace, where Jiang Ping An appeared as An Ping and accused Jia RenDe of betraying him.
• Jia RenDe and An Ping discussed going to the Blood Coral Battlefield as the Wildsea Royal Clan prepared to invade.
