Zhou Ming helped the Twelve Ancestor Witches awaken their Primordial Spirits, grow stronger, and establish the Witch Clan, while Wu Ming guided them through Hongjun’s sermons and forged ties with Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun. The Witch Clan began repairing the Primordial Wilderness as the Demon Clan’s rise approached, and Wu Ming hinted that Hong Yun would soon encounter a major opportunity.
The Demon Clan rose while Zhou Ming and Wu Ming strengthened the Witch Clan and pursued treasures needed for its future. When Nuwa and the other Hongmeng Purple Qi holders sought Wu Ming’s guidance, he secured binding promises from all six before agreeing to help them.
Zhou Ming prepared the Witch Clan for the Demon Clan’s attack, then led it to victory by breaking the Great Formation of the Stars and driving back Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao with Pangu’s Will. The Witch Clan survived the battle, but Zhou Ming warned the Ancestral Witches to cultivate before their enemies and the future Sages recovered their strength.
Zhou Ming prepared the Witch Clan for cultivation and exposed the Heavenly Dao’s schemes while Di Jun and Taiyi destroyed Kunpeng over his Hongmeng Purple Qi. He helped Nuwa create Humanity, used the moment to attain Hunyuan, and left a human carrying his Primordial Spirit on the East Sea Coast.
Zhou Ming prepared the Human Race and Witch Clan for future threats while the Demon Clan and Immortal Court escalated toward war. The Demon Clan secured Xi He’s help with the Moon Star, but the rivalry and the coming decisive battle remained unresolved.
Di Jun and Xi He’s Heavenly Marriage earned merit as the Demon Clan prepared for war, and Nuwa intervened to end the Immortal Court’s defeat. As the rival clans withdrew, Taiqing entered Human territory seeking the chance to become a Saint, and Wu prepared Xuandu for their destined meeting.
Zhou Ming helped Nuwa protect the Human Race’s Destiny while Taiqing, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Jieyin, and Zhunti attained Sainthood. After displaying his strength, Zhou Ming prepared for Hongjun’s scheme involving Houtu and Reincarnation, leaving the Ancestral Witches readying their arrays.
Zhou Ming foiled Hongjun’s attempt to force Houtu’s sacrifice, helped Pingxin establish Reincarnation, and secured the Witch Clan’s influence over the Underworld. Wu strengthened the Human Race and created its written language, while rivalries among the Three Pure Ones and the Golden Crows’ arrival set up new conflicts.
The Golden Crows’ rampage sparked war between the Demon Clan, Immortal Court, and Dragon Clan, while Zhou Ming guided the Human Race through its great calamity and Wu advanced to Primordial Golden Immortal. As Di Jun and East Prince Gong’s forces clashed, the Sages blocked Nuwa from intervening, leaving the battle to unfold without her.
Zhou Ming helped bring the war between the Demon Clan and Immortal Court to an end, then agreed to cooperate with Hongjun against the conscious Heavenly Dao. He left Buzhou Mountain to retrieve Di Jun’s Golden Crow corpses and discovered Wang Shu’s remnant soul hidden on the Moon Star.
Zhou Ming built alliances against the Heavenly Dao, arranged the Witch Clan’s role in the Heavenly Court, and negotiated the Human Race’s future with the Sages. The arc ended with Fuxi born and chosen to lead the Feng Yan Tribe.
Fuxi and Shennong guided the Human Race through migration, governance, and succession before Xuanyuan inherited the title of Human Emperor. Chi You challenged Xuanyuan, and after the first battle went badly, the Dragon Clan and Heavenly Court joined Xuanyuan as he prepared his army for another clash.
Xuanyuan unified the Human Race and awakened Human Dao, while Zhou Ming gathered former Demon Clan leaders and sought a Dao exchange with Tongtian. Zhunti’s scheme drew Yao Ji into a forbidden marriage, setting Haotian and Yuanshi on a collision course.
Haotian’s punishment of Yao Ji led her children to break her out of Peach Mountain, before Nuwa and Houtu negotiated a compromise. Haotian then sought Hongjun’s support to strengthen the Heavenly Court, while Zhou Ming advanced his work on a newborn world and Hongjun summoned the sages to discuss the Investiture of the Gods.
The Sages refused to sign the Investiture of the Gods, setting the sects and the Human Race on paths toward the coming Tribulation. As Zhou Ming prepared to influence the struggle, he began rebuilding Wang Shu’s body under attack from a lightning tribulation.
Zhou Ming helped Tongtian secure Jiang Ziya, but Hongjun awarded the Investiture of the Gods and God-Beating Whip to Yuanshi and Shen Gongbao. As the Interception Sect prepared for the Tribulation, Zhou Ming revealed the larger threat to the Primordial Wilderness, while Jiang Ziya began his training in Chaoge before Jin Ling summoned him back.
After Emperor Yi died, Zi Shou awakened as the Human Emperor and began binding Great Shang’s fate to the Interception Sect. Di Xin brought Li Jing’s family to Chaoge and worked with Yunxiao and the Ten Heavenly Lords to create a formation that suppressed immortals throughout the city.
Di Xin secured Nezha from the Chan Sect, while the Western Sages and Yuanshi conspired against him. Their attempts to bewitch Di Xin at Nuwa Palace failed, so Zhunti began a plan to impersonate him and forge the offending poem.
Nuwa cooperated with the Sages’ schemes while the Nine-tailed Fox entered Chaoge as Su Daji, but Di Xin exposed the fox and placed her under the Queen’s care. As Jiang Ziya joined Di Xin and Shen Gongbao went to Xiqi, Di Xin issued an edict dividing the feudal lords’ lands among their sons, leaving Great Shang facing possible rebellion.
Ji Chang founded Great Zhou and raised a rebellion against Shang, while Jiang Ziya defended Sishui Pass with Nezha and new allies. After the Interception Sect defeated the Chan Sect’s disciples, senior immortals gathered for a confrontation that ended with the Twelve Golden Immortals entering Yunxiao’s Nine Bends Yellow River Formation.
