Fang Yuan seized control of the great arrays and used the Six Extremes Earth Convergence Forbidden Great Array to summon the Dream Master Origin World. The spirit realm’s will descended in fear as dreamlike energy began flowing through the opening.

• Fang Yuan recalled that his current concealment methods might fail before the Seventh Layer Virtual Saints and Sages in the Eagle Worry City camp.

Fang Yuan arrived at Eagle Worry City, met with Elder Ji Yin, and joined the Five Great Alliances’ preparations to march on Yujing City. Afterward, he investigated the shared Dream Realm and resolved to avoid meeting Sages who might see through his concealed strength.

• Fang Yuan entered Eagle Worry City, identified himself to Su Lu, and learned that Shi Longtu had gathered an army of three hundred thousand to march on Yujing City.

• Fang Yuan settled into another estate, concluded that Elder Ji Yin still mistook him for a Fifth-level Virtual Saint, and decided to avoid Sages.
• Fang Yuan accessed the Dream Realm and realized that the Five Great Alliances shared its missions and intelligence, forcing the imperial court to rely on a separate system.

As Shi Longtu’s army besieged Yujing, Fang Yuan met with the Hidden Dragon Venerable Lord and learned that Hidden Dragon Mountain existed in a spiritual space. The Venerable Lord hinted that the Imperial Court still had a secret plan and gave Fang Yuan two World Origin Crystals as compensation for killing Feng Bu Er.

• Fang Yuan refused to join the Hidden Dragon Guard, and the Venerable Lord gave him two World Origin Crystals for killing Feng Bu Er.

Fang Yuan accepted two Origin Crystals from the Hidden Dragon Venerable Lord and agreed to work with him against the Origin Society while secretly distrusting the gift.

After seven days of brutal siege warfare, Fang Yuan traded a problematic Origin Crystal to Elder Lian Huo for Meritorious Deeds and made another deal with Elder Ji Yin.

Fang Yuan watched the Dream Beast Masters unleash their hordes against Yujing City, only for the Imperial Court’s explosive weapons to destroy most of them. As Elder Hou Tu sent out his elite Winged Monkeys and the city foundations began to sink, the Hidden Dragon Venerable Lord requested the Grand Scholar of the Lingguang Hall’s aid.

• Fang Yuan guarded Elder Hou Tu as the Dream Beast Master opened his blessed land and sent Iron Arm Spirit Monkeys against Yujing City.

The Imperial Court’s True Origin Spirit Scholars repelled the attacks on Yujing, but Wu Yue and Zhang Jin’s victories fractured Great Gan and triggered the Six Extremes Earth Convergence array. The array shattered sections of Yujing’s walls, and the Three Sages descended as the Imperial Court faced defeat.

• The forces on both sides charged into battle, while Elder Lian Huo attacked Old Ghost Chi Long and Elder Hou Tu fled underground.
• Several powerful experts fixed their killing intent on Fang Yuan as he remained on the battlefield.

Fang Yuan fought the Twin Saints of Tiger and Crane at the edge of the battlefield while the mighty figures clashed around Yujing City. Elsewhere, the Shadow Dragon Guard and two True Saints killed Black Water Elder.

• Fang Yuan evaded the Twin Saints of Tiger and Crane as they pursued him from the battlefield, then faced them with physical techniques.

The Sages’ battle then ended with the Imperial Court’s Three Sages at a clear disadvantage, and the combatants withdrew into opposing camps.

• The starry battlefield shattered, Hidden Dragon Venerable Lord and the other Sages landed at Yujing City, and the Imperial Court’s Three Sages appeared to have lost their contest.
• The fighting forces withdrew from their battles and re-formed into two opposing camps.

The five Sages of the Dream Master Alliance activated the Six Extremes Earth Convergence array while two of them fought off the World Will, opening an energy channel to the Inner Demon Realm. As they prepared to make the passage permanent, Marquis Shang revealed that the Heavenly Array required a blood sacrifice, and Emperor Zhaoming was offered up.

• The five Sages agreed to proceed with opening the Inner Demon Realm despite the imperial court’s possible hidden plans.
• Sage Gu Chen and another Sage used the Auspicious Cloud to withstand the World Will’s chaotic divine lightning while the other three drove the array.
