As Yu Ci stirred the Three Origins Secret Array, Divine Lord Cold Bamboo and Xun Yuan debated the danger of reopening the breach left by the Taixiao Divine Court’s fall. A Shangqing treasure raced toward Yu Ci, while another power beneath Xi Yu Lake briefly stirred before he sent it back into dormancy.

• Divine Lord Cold Bamboo warned Xun Yuan that the Three Origins Secret Array still held an unrepaired breach from the Taixiao Divine Court’s crash and that Yu Ci might be forcing the alliance to salvage it.
• Xun Yuan argued that the Xiyu Alliance should enlist Yu Ci’s help against the rising demonic calamity, but Cold Bamboo told him to submit his case to the sect.

• Yu Ci sensed the carriage’s approach and recognized the Shangqing charm within it as the cause of its powerful resonance.
• A force deep beneath Xi Yu Lake began to awaken, but Yu Ci’s thought returned it to dormancy, prompting him to reconsider his plans to trap Zhao Xiangshan.

Yu Ci used the Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel to trace Zhao Xiangshan’s aura beneath Lotus Pond and considered the carriage’s deeper power to enfeoff and summon beings. Blood Mansion Ancestor’s curse-kill then escalated against Chengqitian, taking the shape of a colossal Taotie that began to press down on it.

• The Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel arrived above Lotus Pond, where Yu Ci saw Qizhen had managed to board it.

• The curse unleashed a bone-eroding wind against Chengqitian, but the newly cleansed heaven withstood it.
• The curse transformed its gate into a colossal Taotie and pressed down toward Chengqitian.

Yu Ci endured the Crimson Firmament Curse Kill Seal’s attack while using the True Dragon Form Qi and Nine-Five Thunder Command Method to suppress it and analyze its structure. He traced Blood Mansion Ancestor’s movements to within about four million li and had deciphered most of the pattern, preparing to act.

• Yu Ci let the Taotie projection swallow Chengqitian, but its crystalline radiance and Cloud Tower Tree sustained the realm and kept his Dao foundation intact.
• Yu Ci unleashed the True Dragon Form Qi and Nine-Five Thunder Command Method, which destroyed waves of foul Qi and forced the curse art to evolve in response.

• Yu Ci focused on the curse seal’s structure and identified the Blood Aspect Puppet’s connection to Blood Mansion Ancestor as the key to tracing its source.
• Using the Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel to mark possible traces, Yu Ci determined that Blood Mansion Ancestor was within roughly four million li and that he had deciphered most of the ancestor’s movement pattern.

Yu Ci used the Crimson Firmament Curse Kill Seal to locate the Blood Mansion Ancestor and turn the curse connection into a channel for projecting his intent.

Blood Mansion Ancestor escaped the illusion but suffered a devastating inner-demon backlash, losing much of his chance to reincarnate and cultivate anew.

• Blood Mansion Ancestor realized Yu Ci had drawn him into an illusionary realm by transmitting real scenery through the Crimson Firmament Curse Kill Seal.
• Yu Ci showed him a ruined lotus pond whose flowers alternated between life and decay, provoking Blood Mansion Ancestor’s anger and inner demons.
• A treasure embedded in Blood Mansion Ancestor’s chest cooled his mind as he tried to resist the illusion.
• The lotuses repeatedly shifted between blooming and withering, leaving Blood Mansion Ancestor shaken by thoughts of life and death.
• Yu Ci ended the transmission, but Blood Mansion Ancestor questioned whether his corrupt cultivation could truly lead back to the immortal path.
• Inner demons erupted under the pressure of tribulation, costing Blood Mansion Ancestor another thirty percent of his chance to reincarnate and sending him into an emotional collapse.

Blood Mansion Ancestor collapsed after his plans failed, but Yu Ci reached him through the Crimson Firmament Curse Kill Seal and led his consciousness to Xi Yu Lake. There, Zhao Xiangshan realized that a powerful soul-locking force was targeting him because of the Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel.

• Blood Mansion Ancestor's despair triggered a scream that killed his disciples, nether-spirits, and ghosts, and he became absorbed in the lotus pond's mystery of life and death.

• Zhao Xiangshan ordered his guards to activate the communication array so he could confront Yu Ci across empty space.
• The manor’s steward reported that its connection with the outside world had been severed.

Yu Ci sealed off Zhao Xiangshan’s communications and marked him with the Treasure Mirror’s starlight while preparing his next move against Wuji Pavilion and the Xiyu Alliance. As Yu Ci expanded his influence beyond the Three Origins Secret Array’s usual limits, Divine Lord Cold Bamboo and Xun Yuan prepared to negotiate, and an unidentified voice asked him to calm his wrath.

• Zhao Xiangshan learned that Yu Ci had cut off communications around the underwater secret mansion, then ordered the secret line opened so he could connect to the Three Origins Secret Array.
• Yu Ci used the Treasure Mirror to send a beam of starlight through the lake and lock onto Zhao Xiangshan, while Zhao rallied his guards against a possible remote attack.

• Yu Ci reflected on controlling the Xiyu Alliance’s reactions and adjusted his rhythm while learning to use the Ziwei Emperor's Command.
• Yu Ci expanded his power across the surrounding waters and struck the Three Origins Secret Array, prompting Divine Lord Cold Bamboo to order Xun Yuan to open communications.
• A clear chime sounded, and an unidentified speaker asked Yu Ci to temporarily restrain his wrath.

Yu Ci used the Northern Territory Sentiment Map to expose the Wuji Pavilion’s suspected role in Zhang Yan’s disappearance and pressure the Xiyu Alliance to answer for it. He declared his feud with Zhao Xiangshan and the Wuji Pavilion irreconcilable, while the alliance’s leadership called a council rather than make a decision.

• Yu Ci wrote on the Northern Territory Sentiment Map that Zhang Yan had disappeared at Xi Yu Lake and accused the Wuji Pavilion of stirring up conflict over Zhang Yan’s fish-dragon.

• Divine Lord Cold Bamboo received a summons to a high-level Xiyu Alliance council and suspected its leader was trying to spread responsibility for the decision.

Divine Lord Cold Bamboo joined a Xiyu Alliance consultation over Heavenly Monarch Yuanxu and the sealed waters around Zhao Xiangshan, but Liu Taiheng steered the sects toward neutrality and covert reconnaissance. Zhao Xiangshan received the Alliance’s cryptic warning and discovered that the activated array could monitor the waters around his secret mansion across hundreds of miles.

• Madam Xia and Yang Zhu supported an open, decisive stance, while Chu Yuanxiang arrived and declared that the Pure Void Virtue Sect had no objections.

• Zhao Xiangshan received the message “Seek your own blessings!” from his Xiyu Alliance contacts and inferred that Zhao Ziyue’s plan to confront Yu Ci through the Three Origins Secret Array would fail.
• A deacon reported that nearby reconnaissance structures had been activated, and Zhao Xiangshan’s group saw clear images of the surrounding waters across hundreds of miles.

Zhao Xiangshan used the Three Origins Secret Array to search the waters around the underwater mansion and discovered a mysterious screen of patterns. He released thousands of water ghosts to investigate, but they struck a rapidly forming circular talisman that began to stir the surrounding currents.

• Zhao Xiangshan recognized that Yu Ci had seized the initiative and sought to counter his advantage by using the Three Origins Secret Array.
• Zhao Xiangshan ordered his subordinates to search the surrounding waters for traces of vital energy, earth energy, and water veins.
• The array’s shifting view revealed unnatural patterns on a distant layer of water, which reappeared after the currents disrupted them.
• Zhao Xiangshan ordered the release of thousands of water ghosts to find whatever lay behind the patterns.
• The ghosts collided with the patterns as they formed a huge circular talisman, triggering the surrounding water waves to circulate around it.

Zhao Xiangshan sent a fierce chi into Yu Ci’s sealed water domain, where it devastated the Profound Armor Dao Soldiers and disrupted the water-current screens. As the rune patterns shattered and re-formed, Zhao Xiangshan began to understand that they were effects of the water-domain seal, not what sustained it.

• Yu Ci’s Water Virtue Star Lord and Profound Armor Dao Soldiers appeared in the water domain and rapidly destroyed most of the ghosts.
• Zhao Xiangshan ordered the release of the fierce chi, a violent creature bred from fish and beasts with chi dragon bloodlines.
• The fierce chi charged through the Dao Soldier formation, destroying many soldiers and overwhelming the Water Virtue Star Lord’s flood dragons.
• The fierce chi unleashed a roar that shattered thousands of Dao Soldiers and broke the rune-patterned water-current screens, while the Water Virtue Star Lord stabilized part of the domain.
• Zhao Xiangshan studied the changing rune patterns and concluded that they formed because the water domain was sealed, rather than causing the seal.

Zhao Xiangshan witnessed Yu Ci’s void-sealing method absorb the fierce Chi’s explosion and reveal a palace complex with a pool that restored the beast. The scene then showed the Blood Mansion Ancestor undergoing a transformation tied to reincarnation, leaving Zhao Xiangshan’s side unable to dismiss it as an illusion.

• Water Virtue Star Lord’s banner struck the fierce Chi, bound it, and dissolved it despite the beast’s spirit-explosion mechanism activating.
• Zhao Xiangshan realized the water domain’s changing runes reflected the laws of heaven and earth and that Yu Ci’s method controlled the lake water through the void.
• The void-sealing method revealed a vast palace complex and a pool where the fierce Chi regenerated and lost its ferocious appearance.
• The cultivators spotted a badly wounded figure kowtowing toward the hall, and a cyan flame healed the figure’s body.
• A cultivator recognized the figure as the Blood Mansion Ancestor and claimed the scene was an illusion, but the Ancestor’s body was annihilated and then reconstructed through a process of shedding form and body.

Yu Ci’s lingering divine ability planted Dao-rhyme-like truths in the minds of Zhao Xiangshan and his subordinates, overwhelming their defenses and causing a deacon to die after Zhao Xiangshan activated the secret mansion’s third defensive layer. Zhao Xiangshan steadied the shaken group and called on Hong Xiang.

• Yu Ci’s vanished palace visions left runes and faint sounds imprinted in the minds of Zhao Xiangshan and his subordinates.
• Zhao Xiangshan realized Yu Ci was instilling power through a True Text Dao rhyme, and the cultivators began hearing lines about water within their hearts.
• Zhao Xiangshan ordered the secret mansion’s third defensive layer sealed, forcing its arrays to expend most of their reserved vital energy.
• The central deacon who activated the mechanism was drained of moisture and died, while the terrified cultivators unleashed their protective powers and shattered the water mirrors.
• Zhao Xiangshan quelled his subordinates’ panic with a cold gaze and called Hong Xiang by his full name.

Zhao Xiangshan realized Yu Ci had used True Script Dao Rhyme to bypass the Secret Mansion’s defenses, then tried to judge how long Yu Ci could keep up such attacks. The Green Lotus Magic Sword unfolded into a green-robed Daoist who overcame Mountain Thunder True Lord and left Zhao Xiangshan’s group exposed to an unknown next move.

• Zhao Xiangshan ordered the Secret Mansion steward to destroy the Water Virtue Star Lord and report back with a recording, then left the central hub with his followers.
• Zhao Xiangshan concluded that Yu Ci had used True Script Dao Rhyme to break past the Secret Mansion’s defenses, but suspected he could not repeat it many times.
• A green lotus appeared in Zhao Xiangshan’s garden, and his subordinates identified it as the Green Lotus Magic Sword.
• Mountain Thunder True Lord attacked the lotus until its petals opened and a green-robed Daoist emerged from within it.
• Mountain Thunder True Lord charged the Daoist, but the Daoist dispersed into mist, bewildered him with a Dao scripture, and slipped past him as the others fell into a daze.

Yu Ci’s Green Lotus incarnation devastated Zhao Xiangshan’s underwater secret estate, and the ensuing flood left Zhao and his forces fighting to escape. Zhao’s desperate attempt to break through Yu Ci’s void barrier ended with both close guards dead, leaving Zhao to feign a dire condition as the chapter ended.

• The Green Lotus incarnation bypassed the central defenses, wrecked the estate’s control arrays, and escaped through a hole it bored in the wall.

• Yu Ci relied on Soul Lock to attack Zhao Xiangshan from a distance while Zhao Xiangshan remained cut off inside the secret mansion.
• Yu Ci decided to bypass the fortified mansion and crush Zhao Xiangshan through realm superiority, recalling his battle with the Rakshasa Ghost King.

Yu Ci used the Eternal Azure Sky’s True Script Dao Rhyme to strengthen his Realm of Truth construction and crush the underwater secret manor. As Zhao Xiangshan tried to respond, Yu Ci turned the water domain against him, but Zhao evaded its pressure with a strange movement that Madam Huanyong identified as Dream Wandering Immortal Transformation.

• Yu Ci chose to reinforce the Ziwei Emperor’s Command with the Eternal Azure Sky’s True Script Dao Rhyme, using Shangqing principles and the Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel.
• Yu Ci’s new method helped collapse the underwater secret manor, though he knew Zhao Xiangshan and the others remained a threat.
• Yu Ci sealed the surrounding waters and distorted their laws to prevent Zhao Xiangshan from speaking, making him an outsider in the domain.
• Zhao Xiangshan clamped his mouth shut and moved a mile away in a fluid, ghostlike manner that baffled Yu Ci.
• Madam Huanyong told Yu Ci that Zhao Xiangshan was using the magical power called Dream Wandering Immortal Transformation.

Yu Ci refined his void domain as Zhao Xiangshan used Dream Wandering Immortal Transformation to navigate its flaws and escape. Yu Ci reshaped the domain into a seamless landscape, trapping Zhao Xiangshan inside a newly formed corridor.

• The new landscape erased the rigid flaws Zhao Xiangshan had relied on, leaving him lost inside Yu Ci's domain.
• A corridor appeared just as Zhao Xiangshan's teleportation triggered, and Yu Ci's void laws pulled him inside.

Yu Ci trapped Zhao Xiangshan in an uncanny expanse of buildings and then apparently used Void Teleportation to send him far away. The cultivators watching through the consultation formation debated what had happened and were left wondering how profound Yu Ci’s Void Divine Abilities were.

Yu Ci’s control of the void and the Dao’s wind chant overwhelmed Zhao Xiangshan, leaving him trapped in the Three Origins Secret Array as Yu Ci’s supreme divine ability began to manifest. The chapter ended with the void frozen and a feather descending amid the revealed Dao song.

• Yu Ci used his control of the void to send Zhao Xiangshan through a hastily formed waterway, then ignored the mediator’s attempts to address him.
• Yu Ci entered a profound Dao state, and his wind chant reached Zhao Xiangshan seven hundred miles away.

Zhao Xiangshan was trapped by Yu’s Eternal Azure Sky and the Shangqing Sect’s suppressing power as the Three Origins Secret Array joined the Dao Realm. After a shouted warning briefly opened a gap in the seal, Zhao Xiangshan destroyed his body and spirit, leaving his fate uncertain.

• Zhao Xiangshan invoked Eternal Azure Sky, transforming Xi Yu Lake into a Dao Realm that stunned cultivators and drew fish to the surface.
• Zhao Xiangshan found himself cut off from external spiritual qi as the array fused with the Dao Realm and excluded him.
• Zhao Xiangshan struggled to form a small domain, but Yu raised a magical Dharma seal and the array’s suppression crushed his powers and sealed his spiritual apertures.

• Zhao Xiangshan understood the signal, reignited his blood flames, and silently burst his form and spirit into flying dust.

Yu Ci erased the Dao realm and devoured vast amounts of vital Qi, destabilizing the Three Origins Secret Array and drawing tribulation clouds over Xi Yu Lake. In the council array, Chu Yuanxiang challenged those who had provoked him, while Liu Taiheng defused the confrontation by reporting Ji Yong’s injury and urging everyone to consider the larger situation.

As the alliance considered the Divine Court’s possible reappearance, Yuanxu turned his attention to the jade-white dharma seal suppressing Xi Yu Lake, and it began moving toward him.

• Liu Taiheng called for the alliance to pacify Heavenly Monarch Yuanxu through negotiation rather than risk damaging the Three Origins Secret Array.
• Liu Taiheng redirected the deliberation array’s projection to the deep waters beneath Xi Yu Lake, revealing the reconnaissance array placed near the suspected resting place of the Taixiao Divine Court.
