Pingxin led Luohu and their forces into the chaos to keep their battle from destroying the Primordial World, while formations and two Heavenly Dao Sages remained behind to hold off the Devil Race army.

• The Heavenly Dao claimed its new realm made it capable of fighting even the resurrected Pangu, then prepared to attack the formation.

Zhou Ming and the twelve Ancestral Witches fought the Heavenly Dao with Pangu's True Body, but its Hunyuan Grand Ultimate Golden Immortal realm overwhelmed them. As their formation neared collapse, Zhou Ming decided to use the Pangu Axe, despite its dwindling Pangu will being needed for a possible later threat from Hongjun.

• The Heavenly Dao's palm forced Pangu's True Body back, then its Law Barrier shattered under the thirteen's combined axe strike, leaving only a faint mark on its palm.
• The Heavenly Dao attacked at overwhelming speed, pounding Pangu's True Body and driving the thirteen toward collapse.
• Dijiang warned Zhou Ming that he was bearing most of the formation's backlash and urged him to use the Pangu Axe.
• Zhou Ming hesitated because using the axe would diminish Pangu's will, which they might need against Hongjun's hidden move.
• As the Heavenly Dao's attacks cracked the giant axe phantom and threatened to destroy them, Zhou Ming resolved to use the Pangu Axe.

Zhou Ming summoned the Pangu Axe, whose awakened remnant of Pangu’s Will wounded the Heavenly Dao and revealed that Pangu’s will had not fully perished. The Heavenly Dao dismissed the remnant as too weak to overcome his perfected realm, and Pangu’s True Body prepared to continue the fight as he vowed to kill them.

• Zhou Ming used the opening created by Pangu’s True Body to summon the Pangu Axe from the Pangu Realm.

• The Heavenly Dao acknowledged the scheme but claimed that Pangu’s remnant was too weak to challenge his perfected power.
• Zhurong raged at the Heavenly Dao’s insults to Pangu, while Zhou Ming ordered him to fight and the Heavenly Dao vowed to grant their wish to die.

Zhou Ming led Pangu's True Body in a fierce battle against the Heavenly Dao, whose Jade Disc of Creation protected him while Pangu's Will steadily weakened. Zhou Ming ignored the mounting strain and waited for an opening to strike decisively.

• Pangu's True Body and the Heavenly Dao clashed evenly, trading blows that shook the chaos.
• After a prolonged battle, both sides showed signs of exhaustion, and the Heavenly Dao revealed that every use of the Pangu Axe consumed Pangu's Will.
• The Heavenly Dao summoned the Jade Disc of Creation, whose protective light blunted the axe and let him attack without being harmed.
• Dijiang warned Zhou Ming that the Heavenly Dao was wearing down Father God's will, but Zhou Ming remained focused on finding a chance for a decisive strike.

Zhou Ming feinted against the Heavenly Dao until he revealed the Fragment of the Jade Tablet of Creation, drawing the Jade Disc of Creation off balance. The Heavenly Dao rushed to repair the resulting gap as Zhou Ming called for the decisive strike.

• Zhou Ming used feints to make the Heavenly Dao waste its defenses before the Heavenly Dao charged Pangu's True Body to force a direct clash.
• Zhou Ming ordered the Ancestral Witches to stop holding back, and Pangu's True Body met the Heavenly Dao's attack with the Pangu Axe.

• Zhou Ming revealed the Fragment of the Jade Tablet of Creation, and its shared origin pulled the Jade Disc of Creation aside.
• The Heavenly Dao tried to restore his defenses, but Zhou Ming shouted for the Ancestral Witches to strike.

• Luohu called on a watching ally to intervene, then warned that Zhou Ming and the others would soon return, but no one appeared.

Pingxin and Wu were ambushed when the Earth Dao and Human Dao turned against them, leaving both gravely wounded. Pingxin cut herself off from the Earth Dao and prepared to sacrifice herself so the others could escape and warn her elder brother.

• As everyone searched for Luohu’s hidden ally, the Earth Dao struck Pingxin from behind and the Human Dao attacked Wu.

With the allies trapped and overwhelmed by Luohu and the Devil Race, Hongyun and several others sacrificed themselves to let their companions escape.

• Luohu spared the remnant soul and carried two surviving Hunyuan Sages toward the Primordial Wilderness, declaring that the real spectacle was about to begin.

After Zhou Ming slew the Heavenly Dao, its two Sages perished and the allied forces prepared to crush the Devil Race. Yang Mei appeared, shattered both great formations, and awakened Hongjun within Haotian, leaving the battlefield under their control.

• The Heavenly Dao Sages vanished when the Heavenly Dao fell, and Di Jun and East Prince Gong realized Zhou Ming had won.
• Di Jun and East Prince Gong turned their formations toward the Devil Race as the Witch Clan renewed its attack.
• Yang Mei appeared before the two formations and broke them with a wave, then seized Haotian despite Yaochi's attempt to intervene.
• Yang Mei suppressed the battlefield and infused Haotian with power, awakening Hongjun's will and erasing Haotian's consciousness.
• Hongjun took control of Haotian's body, thanked Yang Mei for reviving him, and heard Yang Mei urge him to act quickly.

Hongjun used the contingency hidden in Haotian’s body to drain the origins of the Primordial Wilderness’s mighty ones and restore his cultivation to the peak of Daluo Golden Immortal of the Origin. He then turned his attention to the trapped Witch Clan and Devil Race, seeing them as another source of origin.

• Hongjun forcibly extracted most of Di Jun, East Prince Gong, Taiqing, Yuanshi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others’ origins, leaving them alive but greatly weakened.
• Hongjun’s cultivation rose to the peak of Daluo Golden Immortal of the Origin as the gathered origins transformed Haotian’s body.
• Yang Mei explained that Hongjun’s Method of Slaying Three Corpses had concealed a Primordial Spirit contingency within Haotian, which could be awakened from outside.
• Yaochi realized Haotian had been planted as a life-preserving measure, while Hongjun said the method had been prepared after Pangu killed him and for his struggle with the Heavenly Dao.
• Hongjun spared the weakened mighty ones, saying their ties to the Primordial Wilderness’s Fortune could help with their future plan to prove the supreme Great Dao.
• When Yang Mei noted Hongjun still lacked enough origin to restore his power, Hongjun pointed to the trapped Witch Clan and Devil Race as a ready source.

Yang Mei agreed that Hongjun could devour the Witch Clan and Devil Race to restore his strength, and Hongjun erased their armies and reached peak Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal. After imprisoning the surviving great powers beneath Spirit Mountain, Hongjun and Yang Mei faced Luohu as he returned from the rift.

• Yang Mei agreed that Hongjun should take the Witch Clan and Devil Race as nourishment so he could recover before Zhou Ming and the others returned.

• Luohu emerged from a rift with two weakened Hunyuan of the Devil Race and found Hongjun restored and standing beside Yang Mei.
• Luohu recognized what Hongjun had done and remarked that he had not lost unjustly to him in the past.

• Luohu reported that Pingxin had self-detonated in Chaos and that most of his forces had died, while several opponents escaped.
• Hongjun revealed that the two surviving Devil Race Hunyuan experts would serve as bodies for Destiny and Karma, prompting them to flee.
• Luohu imprisoned the two experts and gave one to Hongjun to help Destiny reconstitute in the Underworld.
• Luohu and Yang Mei left for Huoyun Cave to help Karma return, while Hongjun headed to the Nether Sea of Blood with the other captive.

Luohu urged Yang Mei to form an alliance against Hongjun after they defeated Zhou Ming and the Witch Clan, warning that Hongjun’s scheming made him a dangerous rival in the struggle to attain the Dao. Yang Mei recognized the danger but did not agree before their conversation ended.

• Luohu slowed beside Yang Mei and proposed that they join forces against Hongjun after dealing with Zhou Ming and the Witch Clan.

• Yang Mei remained silent, showing concern about Hongjun’s schemes but making no commitment to Luohu’s proposal.

Luohu persuaded Yang Mei to ally with him against Hongjun, and they decided to recruit Karma before confronting Zhou Ming. They arrived at Huoyun Cave with a body for Karma, while Hongjun was away helping Destiny in the Underworld.

• Luohu argued that Hongjun had the greatest advantage in attaining the Dao and convinced Yang Mei that Hongjun could not be trusted to honor their agreement.

• Yang Mei proposed negotiating or swearing a Great Dao oath, but Karma explained that Pangu's lingering will might awaken and destroy them.

Karma explained how he and Destiny fought over the Heavenly Dao, only for its newly awakened consciousness to devour their main souls. After surviving for ages within the Human Dao and Earth Dao, Karma began reshaping his Dao Body using a Chaos Demon of the Devil Race as Zhou Ming’s return threatened.

• Karma said he and Destiny each left a wisp of divine soul in the Human Dao and Earth Dao while their main souls remained in the Heavenly Dao, where the two souls fused and gave birth to the Heavenly Dao’s consciousness.
• The Heavenly Dao consciousness devoured Karma and Destiny’s weakened, entangled main souls, while their remaining wisps survived by being nurtured within the Human Dao and Earth Dao.
• Karma revealed that he and Destiny stayed hidden even after Zhou Ming awakened the Earth Dao and Human Dao because exposure would have left them vulnerable to Zhou Ming and the Heavenly Dao.
• Yang Mei and Luohu recognized that Karma’s survival could help them oppose Zhou Ming, and Luohu offered him a Chaos Demon of the Devil Race’s body to reshape his Dao Body.
• Karma entered the Chaos Demon’s body, and Luohu and Yang Mei sealed off the space around Huoyun Cave as its demonic qi and Karma’s power of rules clashed and fused.

Karma rebuilt a body with Human Dao Origin and joined forces with Luohu and Yang Mei against Hongjun and Destiny. Destiny also regained a body, and he and Hongjun set out for Spirit Mountain while planning to target Karma after Zhou Ming and the Witch Clan were dealt with.
