Lin Yan planned to defeat the much stronger Fierce Beast Camp by luring its leaders into an array and using repeated harassment to provoke them. After suffering losses from the attackers’ raids, the Three-Eyed Fierce Ape ordered its leaders to search for them and decided to join the hunt itself.

• Lin Yan assessed the Three-Eyed Fierce Ape’s forces and proposed trapping it with the Myriad Laws Return to One Barrier while harassing the camp.

The formation held, but the ape’s Destructive Malevolent Light nearly shattered it; Minghe wounded its bone claws while Lin Yan prepared to seize the opening.

• Lin Yan activated the grand formation, and the five thousand Guard Team members raised a five-colored barrier that stopped the Three-Eyed Fierce Ape’s charge.
• Li Zhu unleashed Southern Bright Leaving Fire while Qing Xuan strengthened the flames with his Emu Green Spirit Staff, weakening the ape’s protective malevolent qi.
• The Three-Eyed Fierce Ape fired Destructive Malevolent Light at the barrier, badly shaking the formation and injuring many of its defenders.
• White Stone Lord summoned his White Stone Mountain Seal to block the destructive beam, sacrificing much of his Origin Power to protect the formation.
• Minghe attacked the ape’s forehead with the Yuantu Abhi Twin Swords, but the ape guarded its vertical pupil with its claws, which Minghe wounded.
• Lin Yan saw the ape wounded and distracted, recognizing the moment as the best opportunity to kill it.
