• Dijiang gathered the Ancestor Witches, and Zhu Rong eagerly welcomed the news that Li Hao possessed the supreme law.

Dijiang warned the Ancestor Witches that Li Hao’s newly gained Law of Strength made him a target, so they agreed to conceal it and protect him. Dijiang joined Li Hao’s guard detail as they considered which Witch could provide support.

• Zhu Rong nervously invited the West Queen Mother to see some good things, and she lowered her face with flushed cheeks, startling Li Hao.

Li Hao and Dijiang decided not to kill the witnesses, but struggled over what to do with East King Duke. Meanwhile, West Queen Mother showed affection for Zhu Rong, who remained oblivious, and the chapter left East King Duke’s fate unresolved.

• East King Duke regretted drawing attention from the Ancestor Witches, while Dijiang scolded Zhu Rong for suggesting they kill their enemies recklessly.
• West Queen Mother gently massaged Zhu Rong’s head, blushed when he turned to her, and watched him warmly as Li Hao tried to encourage him to pursue her.
• Li Hao told Dijiang that the witnesses should be spared because they were unlikely to reveal what they had seen.
• Dijiang asked how they should handle East King Duke, and Li Hao worried that sparing him could expose them while killing him would entangle Li Hao in karma.

• East King Duke told the guard to speak freely, and the guard reported that the two former Solar Star generals had returned and told East King Duke to get lost.

Li Hao explained why East King Duke’s departure would not expose the Witch Tribe’s secrets and considered the threat posed by Di Jun and Tai Yi. He and Dijiang then set off to find Zhu Rong and return to the Ancestral Land.

• East King Duke hurried away after learning that Di Jun and Tai Yi had come to see him, abandoning his hopes of marrying West Queen Mother.
• Dijiang asked Li Hao whether they should have frightened East King Duke, but Li Hao argued that Di Jun and Tai Yi would keep him occupied and were unlikely to approach the Witch Tribe.
• Li Hao reassured the Ancestor Witches that outsiders could not identify his laws unless he revealed them, and suggested East King Duke might never have time to disclose what he knew.
• Dijiang warned that Di Jun and Tai Yi were building a faction that might eventually fight the Witch Tribe, and Li Hao said their success would depend on whether they could develop enough strength.
• Li Hao told Dijiang they had found reliable people for the grafting, and they headed to the Peach Garden to collect Zhu Rong and return to the Ancestral Land.

Li Hao helped Zhu Rong and West Queen Mother overcome their awkward silence, and Zhu Rong boldly embraced her, confirming their mutual affection. Li Hao collected branches from the Peach Mother Tree for grafting and returned with the group as Zhu Rong and West Queen Mother followed together.

• Li Hao arrived and told Zhu Rong it was time to return, then asked West Queen Mother for Peach Mother Tree branches for grafting.
• West Queen Mother insisted she was willing to go with them after Li Hao suggested they could discuss the matter later.
• Zhu Rong put his arm around West Queen Mother and called her his Third Sister-in-law, and she leaned against him and agreed.
• Li Hao left to find Dijiang and the other brothers, then led them to collect branches from the Peach Mother Tree.
• Zhu Rong and West Queen Mother returned to the group with her following close beside him.

After Zhu Rong accepted West Queen Mother, the Ancestor Witches traveled toward their Ancestral Land and found a supreme treasure emerging in the wilderness. Li Hao and Dijiang reached the site after the others had secured it, leaving the witches poised to claim the treasure.

• The Ancestor Witches celebrated Zhu Rong and West Queen Mother’s pairing, and Qiang Liang was relieved that he was no longer at risk of being matched with West Queen Mother.
• On their journey home, Li Hao spotted a brilliant treasure light, and the Ancestor Witches surrounded its location to keep outsiders away.
• Li Hao persuaded Dijiang that seizing the treasure for the Witch Tribe mattered more than others’ opinions, and Dijiang agreed.
• Li Hao and Dijiang traveled at a pace that allowed West Queen Mother to keep up, while Houtu watched Li Hao with affection.
• The group arrived to find the other Ancestor Witches waiting at the treasure site, where Zhu Rong complained that they had taken too long.

Li Hao identified the newly revealed treasure as the Book of Life and Death, which could grant sainthood to someone who sacrificed themselves to become the reincarnation cycle. When Houtu moved to take it, Li Hao stopped her with an emotional plea and won her promise to stay away from it, then impulsively kissed her forehead.

• Zhu Rong realized he had forgotten West Queen Mother, apologized loudly, and walked away with her by the hand.
• The treasure light faded and revealed the Book of Life and Death, which Li Hao said had an affinity with the Western Lands.
• Li Hao recognized that the Book of Life and Death could grant sainthood only if its holder became the reincarnation cycle and left the Primordial Era behind.
• Houtu approached the treasure, but Li Hao slapped her hand away and pleaded with her not to leave him by taking it.
• Houtu promised not to touch or approach the treasure, and Li Hao kissed her forehead before regretting his impulsive action.

After Li Hao and Houtu shared an unexpected kiss, Li Hao refused to let her take the Book of Life and Death, fearing it would repeat the fate that doomed the Witch Tribe. He and Dijiang devised a plan to hide the treasure in the Western Lands and use Zhu Jiuyin’s time reversal to make others encounter its effects, but Houtu demanded to join them.

• Li Hao pulled away from Houtu after they kissed, while the Ancestor Witches pretended not to notice.
• Dijiang asked why Li Hao would not let Houtu take the Book of Life and Death, and Li Hao refused because it could lead to her transforming into reincarnation and the Witch Tribe’s defeat.
• Qiang Liang asked how they should deal with the treasure, and Li Hao warned that sending it to the Western Lands or inviting Jieyin and Zhunti over would make them suspicious.
• Li Hao asked Zhu Jiuyin whether he could reverse the treasure’s phenomenon, and Zhu Jiuyin said he could do so with reduced effect.
• Li Hao proposed that he, Dijiang, and Zhu Jiuyin hide the treasure in the Western Lands and use time reversal to solve the problem.
• Houtu rushed over, grabbed Dijiang by the lapel, and demanded to go with them.

Houtu reluctantly let Li Hao leave to take the Book of Life and Death to the Western Lands with Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin. After they planted the treasure and reversed time, the three spotted East King Duke fleeing from Di Jun and Tai Yi and decided to watch what happened.

• Houtu released Dijiang after Li Hao comforted her and promised to return soon.
• Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and Li Hao traveled west while the other Ancestor Witches returned to the Ancestral Land under Zhu Rong's charge.
• Li Hao explained that they would bury the Book of Life and Death and use Zhu Jiuyin's Law of Time to restore it to its earlier state.
• The three Witches buried the Book of Life and Death in the Western Lands, reversed time, and left under cover of the Space Law.
• Li Hao spotted East King Duke being chased by Di Jun and Tai Yi, so he called Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin back to watch.

East King Duke fled Di Jun and Tai Yi toward the Western Lands, but a sudden treasure manifestation let the brothers catch and kill him. As Di Jun and Tai Yi waited for the treasure to appear, Jieyin and Zhunti arrived after hearing of it, while Li Hao and the Ancestor Witches secretly observed.

• East King Duke escaped the battle and raced toward the Western Lands, hoping to use the stolen Immortal Court treasury as leverage with Jieyin and Zhunti.
• Li Hao and the others’ hidden traps activated ahead of East King Duke, filling the area with brilliant precious light and slowing his flight.
• Di Jun and Tai Yi caught East King Duke and killed him, destroying his Primordial Spirit with the Chaos Bell.
• Di Jun and Tai Yi celebrated East King Duke’s death and resolved to establish their force, then waited for the treasure’s light to fade.
• Li Hao, Dijiang, and Zhu Jiuyin secretly watched as Di Jun worried that Jieyin and Zhunti might claim the treasure.
• Jieyin’s voice rang out, declaring that a supreme treasure had manifested and that the Western Lands had hope for revival.

Di Jun and Tai Yi encountered Jieyin and Zhunti in the Western Lands as a buried treasure was about to appear, and the four argued over who had the right to claim it. Di Jun turned Jieyin and Zhunti’s own claim that everything in the West belonged to the West against them, insisting that he and Tai Yi were Westerners too.

• Jieyin and Zhunti arrived and announced that a treasure in the Western Lands was about to manifest.
• Di Jun and Tai Yi confronted them, resenting Jieyin and Zhunti for taking the Immortal Court’s treasures and refusing to give up the newly discovered prize.
• Jieyin and Zhunti called Di Jun and Tai Yi uninvited guests and told them to leave the Western Lands’ treasure to its rightful owners.
• Tai Yi objected when Di Jun appeared to concede that the treasure belonged to the West.
• Di Jun argued that he and Tai Yi were also people of the Western Lands and therefore had the right to contend for the treasure.

Jieyin and Zhunti exploited the Western Lands’ poor Spiritual Energy to drain Di Jun and Tai Yi’s magic power, leaving both sides in an awkward stalemate. Li Hao and the three Ancestor Witches watched from within the Space Law, disappointed that the fight had stalled.

• Jieyin agreed that Di Jun and Tai Yi could compete for the treasure, then planned to let the Western Lands’ low Spiritual Energy exhaust their opponents while he and Zhunti defended.
• Zhunti provoked Di Jun and Tai Yi, who summoned the River Diagram, Luo Shu, and Chaos Bell and attacked while Jieyin and Zhunti guarded themselves with the Twelve-grade Golden Lotus of Merit and Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree.
• Di Jun realized his magic power was draining and warned Tai Yi, who stopped attacking and accused Jieyin and Zhunti of being treacherous.
• Di Jun tried to provoke Jieyin and Zhunti into attacking, but they stayed calm, and the two sides settled into a stalemate.
• Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin questioned Li Hao as they watched the stalemate from within the Space Law, while Li Hao pretended to watch intently.

Li Hao and Dijiang secretly used Dijiang’s Space Law to deliver Li Hao’s kicks to Zhunti and Di Jun, trying to provoke a fight over the supreme treasure. Di Jun was hurled into a mountain and survived, while Li Hao insisted he had held back and was testing how strong Di Jun was.

• Li Hao asked Dijiang whether he could use his law to launch a long-range attack, then kicked Zhunti and had Dijiang send the blow straight to him.
• Zhunti was sent flying, while Tai Yi laughed and Di Jun suspected the scene was a trick by Jieyin and Zhunti.
• When the others still did not fight, Li Hao told Dijiang to kick Di Jun next, and the blow sent him flying into a mountain.
• Di Jun struck the mountain, suffered injuries, and headed toward the Western Lands.
• Dijiang scolded Li Hao for using so much strength, but Li Hao said he had held back and wanted to gauge Di Jun’s endurance.

Tai Yi and Jieyin fought after Tai Yi accused him of celebrating Di Jun’s injury, but they exhausted their magical power and continued grappling with their bare hands. Li Hao watched from the Space Law and offered brutal fighting advice as Tai Yi ended up with his head buried in Jieyin’s belly.

• Tai Yi failed to catch the injured Di Jun, fell, and confronted Jieyin over his laughter.
• Tai Yi summoned the Chaos Bell and attacked Jieyin, who fought back with the Twelve-grade Golden Lotus of Merit and the Green Lotus Treasure Banner.
• After both Quasi-Saints exhausted their magical power, Jieyin punched Tai Yi and the two began wrestling.
• Li Hao advised the fighters to use hair-pulling, eye-poking, and wrestling tactics while Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin listened in shock.
• Jieyin grabbed Tai Yi by the hair, and Tai Yi’s head slammed into Jieyin’s belly, leaving him struggling amid the folds of flesh.

Tai Yi struggled free from Jieyin’s grasp, but Jieyin seized him again and humiliated him by trapping him beneath his crotch. Tai Yi rammed Jieyin there in retaliation, leaving Jieyin howling in pain.

• Tai Yi used his remaining magic power to escape Jieyin’s embrace, tearing out a handful of hair and ending up with an oily face and a bald patch.
• Li Hao, Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and Jieyin laughed at Tai Yi’s appearance, and Tai Yi charged at Jieyin in a rage.
• Jieyin grabbed Tai Yi by the hair again and pulled him into the folds of his body, intending to wear down Tai Yi’s remaining magic power.
• Tai Yi pushed his way beneath Jieyin’s crotch and, furious at Jieyin’s taunts, rammed into him with all his strength.
• Jieyin howled in pain and jumped up from the blow.

Jieyin and Tai Yi suffered a series of painful injuries during their struggle, leaving both unable to fight. Zhunti and Di Jun returned to the battlefield, found them on the ground, and hurried over to ask what had happened.

• Jieyin yanked Tai Yi into the air by his hair, and Tai Yi struck him while struggling before they fell back to the ground.
• Jieyin landed on Tai Yi's head and suffered another severe injury, while Tai Yi was left dazed and unable to stand.
• Jieyin rolled on the ground in pain, leaving Tai Yi with a patchy bald head, and both lost their combat effectiveness.
• Zhunti and Di Jun returned from opposite directions, searched for their companions, and found Jieyin and Tai Yi lying on the ground.
• Zhunti and Di Jun supported Jieyin and Tai Yi and asked what had happened, but Jieyin could only point at Tai Yi without speaking.

Zhunti’s attempt to wake Jieyin made his injured senior brother pass out, while Di Jun failed to recognize the battered Tai Yi and rejected him in disbelief. As Li Hao and the witches watched from the Space Law, Di Jun finally beckoned Tai Yi over and told him to restore his hair once his magic power recovered.

• Zhunti shook Jieyin, aggravating his injuries until Jieyin fainted before he could explain what had happened.
• Di Jun helped the buried Tai Yi up, mistook him for someone else, and shoved him back down.
• Tai Yi woke and tried to explain that he was Di Jun’s younger brother, but his damaged speech and ragged appearance made Di Jun refuse to acknowledge him.
• Li Hao and the three witches watched the brothers’ awkward reunion from inside the Space Law.
• Di Jun sighed, beckoned Tai Yi over, and told him to fix his hair after his magic power recovered.
