• Jiang Yan stepped forward with fifty Battle Ruin Imprints as Joey reflected on his approaching end and the pain of keeping things in his heart.

• Jiang Yan concealed his appearance with Spirit Ink and flew toward an uninhabited planet as more powerful auras approached.

Jiang Yan used the Four Directions Realm Stone’s signal to draw in and kill the powerhouses who came seeking it, then settled on an uninhabited planet to cultivate. As he worked to fuse the Life and Death Law into his Domain, the story shifted to the Heavenly Demon’s memories of the bloodline taboo that shaped his past.

• The Heavenly Demon remembered that his mother and the Life-Death Demon Skeleton had committed that taboo.
