Summary

1. Key Plot Points and Events

The Demon Sect and invading Chaos creatures field seventeen Quasi-Saints and Golden Immortals of the Origin, including Wutian, demonized Haotian, Mosquito Daoist, the Seven Venerables, and the Seven Dao Lords.
• The Primordial Wilderness army has around thirty-five Quasi-Saints, but most are weakened by Heavenly Dao suppression and the Mysterious Yellow Infinite Formation. Many are rogue cultivators or newly ascended experts with insufficient foundations and inferior treasures.
• Wutian immediately establishes the enemy’s superiority by killing two rogue-cultivator Quasi-Saints in one exchange, causing the remaining rogue cultivators to fight cautiously.
