Vol. 3The Masked Man’s Trail
Qin Xi traveled through the Primordial World, helped Red Cloud overcome his demonic incarnation, and uncovered ancient secrets while pursuing the Masked Man. The story left Qin Xi investigating Bai Ling and the Second Elder’s possible ties to the Demon Realm.
- Qin Xi gave Red Cloud the Investiture of the Gods and urged him to experience evil without interfering, as the Hundred Schools rose amid the war between the great powers and Foreign Races.
- The Hundred Schools’ founders fought the Foreign Races, but a mysterious black aura halted the battlefield as Red Cloud’s demonic Good Incarnation approached.
- Qin Xi cleansed Red Cloud’s Good Incarnation and helped Red Cloud merge with him before traveling through the Phoenix and Kirin lands with Yu Xue and Qirui.
- After Yu Xue vanished into a hidden river, Qin Xi and Qirui found her in an underground city, where Pangu revealed Qin Xi’s origin and they chose the Death Gate.
- Qin Xi pursued the Masked Man after attacks on the Dragon and Monster Clans, then searched the Dragon and Kirin secret realms with Yu Xue, Qirui, and Momo.
- Hou began trials for Qin Xi and Qirui in the Kirin Clan’s Forbidden Land to determine their access to its secret arts and treasures.
- Qin Xi received the Kirin Clan’s Primordial Spirit Pill and Fusion Law from Hou, brought Momo to the Heavenly Dao Field, and continued searching for the Phoenix Clan and the Masked Man.
- After Yu Xue and Qirui won the White Tiger Clan’s martial competition, Qin Xi agreed to investigate Bai Ling and the Second Elder and ordered them to watch Bai Ling secretly.
