Ye San restored her memories, revealing that a familiar finger had once sent her into reincarnation and that a token marked “Chengtian” was tied to her past.

• Ye Wu transported Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue to the Immortal Bridge Ancient Ruins, where Ling Xianyue sensed something was different.

Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue found the Immortal Bridge Ancient Ruins unnaturally silent before Li Xundao and Tantai Zhentian joined them. Li Xundao explained that his divination had changed from certain death to safety, and Tantai Zhentian left abruptly while Ye Chang'an remained silent.

• Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue noticed that the Immortal Bridge Ancient Ruins were eerily quiet and showed no signs of life.
• Li Xundao and Tantai Zhentian arrived, and Tantai Zhentian realized Ye Chang'an might be the Hall Master of the Primordial Divine Hall.

• Tantai Zhentian sensed Ye Chang'an's disdain, used the chance to take his leave, and vanished before the others could respond.

Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue headed toward the far end of the Immortal Bridge as powerful figures gathered in the ruins. A puppet sent by Ice Fire Child Venerable stepped onto the bridge, and the group turned toward the resulting roar.

• Ye San and Ye Wu repeatedly erased and revived Tantai Zhentian while arguing over who would carry out the task.
• Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue set off to inspect the far end of the Immortal Bridge, while Ye Chang'an questioned why Li Xundao intended to follow them.

• Li Xundao identified a figure approaching the bridge as a puppet whose consciousness Ice Fire Child Venerable had wiped away.
• Ling Xianyue asked about Ice Fire Child Venerable, and Li Xundao said he had been in seclusion and might now rival him in strength.
• The puppet stepped onto the Immortal Bridge, and a sudden roar made everyone turn toward it.

Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue watched as a Primordial Dao Realm-related upheaval transformed the Immortal Bridge Ancient Ruins and brought forth terrifying, lifeless figures. After the system confirmed their cultivation was within seven major realms of his, Ye Chang'an prepared to use Concept Erasure, leaving the figures’ fate unresolved.

• A burst of thunderous rumbling and sacred light from the Immortal Bridge gave way to rolling black clouds and an overwhelming pressure.
• Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue suspected the change was connected to information Li Wuxun had left behind about the Primordial Dao Realm.
• A massive spatial rift opened, and lifeless figures emerged whose power alarmed Li Xundao and the other cultivators.
• Ye Chang'an asked the system about the figures’ cultivation and learned they were Half-step Chaos Dominators, not seven major realms above him.
• As the figures charged and sealed off escape, Ye Chang'an raised his hand, snapped his fingers, and invoked Concept Erasure.

Ye Chang'an's Concept Erasure made everyone forget the danger he had just eliminated, leaving them confused about their fear and anticipation. As Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue crossed the Immortal Bridge, the others departed, while Ye San and Ye Wu agreed to attack Tantai Zhentian together after he begged them to stop repeatedly killing and reviving him.

• The experts, Li Xundao, and Ling Xianyue could not remember the terrifying presence that Ye Chang'an had erased, and Ye Chang'an realized his display of power had gone unwitnessed.
• Ye Chang'an told Ling Xianyue that he had easily dealt with the danger, and they stepped onto the Immortal Bridge together.
• The experts concluded that they were too insignificant to follow Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue, and Li Xundao left after his purpose at the ruins was fulfilled.
• The remaining experts gradually left the Immortal Bridge Ancient Ruins until only Ye Chang'an and Ling Xianyue remained.
• Tantai Zhentian begged Ye San and Ye Wu to attack him together so they would stop taking turns killing and reviving him, and the two agreed.
