Key Plot Points and Events

• Jiang Ding senses the revival of the Supreme Clarity Spiritual Treasure Sect’s inheritance seed. Wisps of flame, formed from the final thoughts and attachments of countless deceased sages and supreme beings, begin crossing the cosmic void toward their sect.
• He realizes these flames are the “afterglow” of the Upper Realm’s immortal sects—legacy forces planted hundreds of thousands of years earlier so the Nine Great Immortal Sects could revive after the Fallen Immortal Realm’s destruction.
• Jiang Ding concludes that the Supreme Clarity Spiritual Treasure Sect must be eradicated before its afterglow fully descends. He regards the sect as an existential threat to the Immortal Sect’s political order and the safety of its citizens.
• Before he can act, similar afterglows appear for the Azurewood Immortal Sect and potentially other ancient sects. Vast Dao manifestations and rule phenomena erupt across the world cluster, while the Immortal Sect mobilizes its military.
• Yuan asks whether the afterglows could possess supreme-level power. Jiang Ding rules this out, explaining that dead supreme beings cannot transmit their actual power across the cosmic void—only their thoughts and attachments. However, he cannot determine whether the afterglows possess power at or near the upper levels of the Heavenman realm.
