• The Black Gourd’s golden radiance revealed a woman in a blue dress, and Dao Yang Furnace suspected it had drawn the Qiren Dao Companion’s true body to them.

Chen Fusheng witnessed the Black Gourd use the Strange Person's Dao Companion's imprint and the Saint Jade Soul Star's rules to begin reviving the Sword Saint Ruler. The gourd fell dormant, and Chen Fusheng carried the ruler into the Space Pearl to seek the resources needed for her recovery.

• The Black Gourd projected the sleeping Azure-Clothed Woman and sent Golden Tadpoles toward her, which formed the Saint Jade Soul Star's Rule Projection around the Sword Saint Ruler.
• The Sword Saint Ruler briefly showed signs of life as her shattered soul fragments began to reassemble, but the Black Gourd went dim and stopped responding.
• Chen Fusheng realized the projection was fading and tried to nourish the Sword Saint Ruler with Seven Absolute Sword Art energy, nearly dying before the Dao Yang Furnace cut off the flow.

• Chen Fusheng announced that he had found a defective spot in the array, and Han Zi Xue persuaded the gathered leaders to trust him despite Lan Qingfan's objections.

• Chen Fusheng rushed through the rift ahead of the others and called for Feng Kunpeng to surrender as the heroes poured in behind him.

As the group prepared to suppress the seven embedded stars, Yun Yefeng revealed a Five-Colored Treasure Mirror that stirred both Chen Fusheng’s Black Gourd and star map.

• Chen Fusheng realized the Sword Saint Ruler’s bonded sword was being reforged and left Dao Yang Furnace and the Brahma Lotus Holy Fire to guard her while he went to the Saint Ruler Cave Abode for vitality.
• At the cave abode, Feng Kunpeng and Han Liuyang clashed with forces wielding Creation Heavenly Weapons until Yun Yefeng intervened and urged everyone to focus on the Cross Saint Brahma Wheel inheritance.
• Yun Yefeng called on Chen Fusheng for insight, and Chen Fusheng explained that the seven embedded stars were key to opening the cave entrance and needed to be suppressed briefly.
• Yun Yefeng produced a Five-Colored Treasure Mirror, whose divine light threatened the onlookers and made Chen Fusheng’s Black Gourd and star map glow.

Yun Yefeng used the Five-Colored Aurora Mirror to expose the Saint Ruler Cave Abode’s structure and direct seven heavenly weapons against its seven stars. The gate opened, revealing a blazing, purely yang aura and what Chen Fusheng thought looked like countless Golden Crows.

• Yun Yefeng invited Chen Fusheng to help control the Five-Colored Aurora Mirror and break the cave abode’s formation.
• Chen Fusheng saw through the mirror that the cave abode was an independent world, identified the seven stars as its power source, and noticed a mysterious sacred radiance within.
• Yun Yefeng chose seven experts to attack the mirror, which rebounded their weapons’ power toward the seven stars and suppressed them.
• An expert rushed through a crack in the gate and exploded; Yun Yefeng warned the others that the cave abode remained deadly, and Huan Qianyi reminded them of Sword Saint Ruler’s power.
• The seven stars’ fluctuations subsided, the cave abode’s gate opened, and Chen Fusheng glimpsed what seemed to be countless Golden Crows inside.

Chen Fusheng entered the Saint Ruler Cave Abode with Han Kongjing and revealed that he had created a powerful second clone from Zhou Chong’s Yuan Magnetic Body. While the clone fought the Golden Crow Saint Palace in the outer hall, Chen Fusheng and Han Kongjing explored the Inner World, where they captured a sword-type half-sacred medicine and spotted a Starry Sky Mineral Vein.

• Chen Fusheng rode Han Kongjing’s Nine Steeds Heavenly Chariot into the Saint Ruler Cave Abode ahead of the other powerhouses.
• The Golden Crow Jade Tree and its eight quasi-seventh-realm Golden Crows drew fierce competition, while Yun Yefeng hurried toward the depths of the hall.

• Chen Fusheng spotted a floating Starry Sky Mineral Vein after its rocky life-forms killed several experts.

Chen Fusheng and Han Kongjing explored the Starry Sky Mineral Vein, where a terrifying heartbeat revealed a Saint Mud Embryo guarded by the shell of Saint Brahma Star. Chen Fusheng recognized that his star map might absorb the shell’s energy as the others realized the embryo’s immense power.

• Chen Fusheng guided the Nine Steeds Heavenly Chariot through the mineral vein’s dangerous magnetic fields and entered the starry sky world.
• Chen Fusheng sensed an ancient life-sign and chose to investigate it rather than mine the abundant Mother Metal and other resources.

• A powerful heartbeat shook the mineral vein, driving cultivators from the mines and revealing a life-form within the gray mist.
• Chen Fusheng identified a dusty clay statue with Saintly Dao Veins as a Saint Mud Embryo, while Yun Yefeng, Han Kongjing, and Feng Kunpeng reacted to its power.
• Chen Fusheng recognized the surrounding golden crystals as Saint Brahma Star’s shell and sensed that his star map yearned to absorb their energy.

Yun Yefeng and the other powerful figures discovered the Saint Mud Embryo in the Sword Saint Ruler's Cave Abode and formed an alliance to claim it. After binding themselves with a soul contract, they prepared to compete for the treasure while outsiders gathered to break into the Starry Sky Mineral Vein.

• Yun Yefeng and Chen Fusheng realized the Saint Mud Embryo could grant immortality and found that the Saint Star foundation made it impossible to approach by force.
• Yun Yefeng persuaded the gathered factions to drain the foundation's energy and compete to comprehend the Cross Saint Brahma Wheel, with the winner safeguarding the embryo.
• Yun Yefeng's group drove off a Golden Crow Saint Palace expert who approached, then signed Huan Qianyi's soul contract, including secrecy clauses and promises of future protection.
• Chen Fusheng urged the star map to absorb the foundation's energy while his clone rampaged through the world with a greatsword.
• The Golden Crow Saint Palace expert rallied other factions and led repeated assaults on the Starry Sky Mineral Vein, but the allied group's heavenly-soldier-level attacks forced them back.

Yun Yefeng and the gathered factions depleted the Saint Brahma Star's foundation to expose the Saint Mud Embryo, while Chen Fusheng's star map transformed and his soul comprehended the Patrolling Heaven Lantern. As Yun Yefeng approached the prize, a figure suddenly dove toward the Saint Mud Embryo, triggering a battle.

• Yun Yefeng used Star Shifting and the Five-Colored Aurora Mirror to redirect the Saint Star's power into the distant starry sky, and the factions began rapidly depleting its foundation.
• Chen Fusheng's star map absorbed Saint Brahma Star's root matter as his miniature galaxy grew and his soul comprehended the Patrolling Heaven Lantern.
• Chen Fusheng sensed that his star map had brought the starry sky closer to him and that the Saint Brahma Star's energy was nearly exhausted.
• After three days and nights of attacks, the factions cracked Saint Brahma Star's foundation and reduced it to an empty shell, leaving the Saint Mud Embryo exposed.
• Yun Yefeng approached the Saint Mud Embryo, but an unidentified figure plunged down to seize it, prompting Yun Yefeng and the others to attack.

Blood Rose seized the Saint Mud Embryo and fled, while Chen Fusheng’s clone delayed Yun Yefeng and helped her escape. Yun Yefeng’s pursuit ended in failure, but the Five-Colored Aurora Mirror revealed the clone’s apparent original appearance.

• Blood Rose embraced the Saint Mud Embryo and vanished, leaving Chen Fusheng and the other factions stunned.
• Chen Fusheng spotted Blood Rose’s escape route, and his clone charged at Yun Yefeng to interrupt the pursuit.
• Yun Yefeng lost Blood Rose’s coordinates and turned his Five-Colored Aurora Mirror on Chen Fusheng’s clone.
• Chen Fusheng unleashed the Golden Crow flames to obstruct the search and escaped the Saint Ruler Cave Abode as Yun Yefeng and the others chased him.
• Yun Yefeng failed to find the fugitives and used the mirror to identify the clone as an old man with a ruddy face.
