Haotian chose to support the Innate Divine Being race in the Primordial-Acquired War by targeting only the Evil Demons, hoping to gain support from the Saints without alienating the Acquired Beings. He sent Kong Xuan and Holy Mother Zi Guang to lead the campaign while privately considering how to limit the Hua Tian Peak Lineage’s influence in Heavenly Court.

• Holy Mother Zi Guang argued that Heavenly Court could not remain neutral, and Kong Xuan recommended aiding the Innate Divine Beings by suppressing only the Evil Demons.
• Haotian approved Kong Xuan’s plan and ordered Kong Xuan and Holy Mother Zi Guang to carry it out, despite the Saints’ ban on Quasi-Sages entering the battlefield.

• Kong Xuan appointed Qiong Xiao and Yu Xiao as Heavenly Court’s Left and Right Marshals, then led twelve Grand Luo Golden Immortals, several hundred Star Gods, and one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers to join the demon-suppression campaign.

The Heavenly Court backed the Innate Divine Beings’ campaign against Evil Demons, and the Innate-Acquired War erupted across the Primordial Great Land.

• More than ten Innate Divine Being Grand Luo Golden Immortals, led by Jingzhe, brought over a hundred Grand Unity Golden Immortals and a vast army to encircle Shouyang Mountain.

• Yan Tianyu swore to live or die with the Human Race and ordered its warriors to kill the invading enemies.
• Yan Tianyu’s forces took their positions and unfolded a Human War Array modeled on the Witch and Demon Clans’ soldier formations, sending their surging momentum toward the invaders.

The Human Race faced Jingzhe’s forces at Shouyang Mountain with a powerful War Array, but the Southern Bright Quasi-Saint intervened by gifting Jingzhe a top-grade treasure to suppress it. As the array began to falter, Luo Qing prepared to respond after seeing his disciple’s side threatened.

• Hundreds of thousands of Human Race immortals and gods formed a War Array that alarmed Jingzhe and his forces.
• The Southern Bright Quasi-Saint recognized the War Array and, despite the Sages’ prohibition, sent Jingzhe the Void-Illuminating Cover.

• The Innate Divine Beings began insulting Yan Tianyu, while Jingzhe recognized the sword’s threat and turned pale as Yan Tianyu raised it again.

Yan Tianyu used the Human Emperor Sword and the Human Race’s battle array to crush the Innate Divine Beings attacking Shouyang Mountain. The slaughter ended with only Jingzhe Grand Luo alive, trapped beneath the protective array and warning Yan Tianyu that the Void-Illuminating Cover belonged to his teacher, Southern Bright Quasi-Saint.

• Jingzhe Grand Luo accepted that he could not escape and asked Yan Tianyu to release the Void-Illuminating Cover after killing him, warning that it belonged to Southern Bright Quasi-Saint.
• Yan Tianyu considered Jingzhe Grand Luo naïve and decided that the Human Race might as well seize the treasure and weaken Southern Bright Quasi-Saint.

Yan Tianyu spared Jingzhe Grand Luo’s life but imprisoned him at Shouyang Mountain, then discovered Human Race cultivators looting the fallen divine beings for blood sacrifices. With the other Grand Luo Golden Immortals’ support, Yan Tianyu resolved to eliminate the demons among the Human Race.

• Yan Tianyu spared Jingzhe Grand Luo’s life and sealed his divine power, keeping him captive at Shouyang Mountain.
