Song Wen tried to cancel his deal with the Autumn-Knowing Pavilion after learning that several Heaven-Questioning Alliance vice leaders wanted to meet him, but four Lingxu Dao Immortals arrived at his courtyard anyway. As the visitors competed for his commission, Madam Xuanyin began probing where he had obtained the immortal sword and Golden Steel Corpse.

• Wang Hefeng told Song Wen that several vice alliance leaders wanted to meet him, and Song Wen canceled the transaction, accusing the Autumn-Knowing Pavilion of exposing him.

As they explored a damaged teleportation array and a corridor lined with cells containing incomplete demonic-beast skeletons, the others questioned Song Wen about what he knew and how he had obtained his treasures.

• Song Wen questioned Puxuan about the tomb’s sudden appearance, and Puxuan claimed that old formations had concealed it during his earlier exploration of the Rift Valley.

Song Wen and the four cultivators crossed a long corridor filled with incomplete human skeletons and demonic beast remains, then reached a sealed stone gate. Song Wen identified an unfamiliar aura leaking from beyond it as Source Qi, leaving the group wary and questioning how it could have persisted alongside yin qi for tens of thousands of years.

• Wei Xuan and the others examined a human skeleton pinned by a blade, and Madam Xuanyin suggested its missing half might have carried its storage ring.
• Song Wen agreed that the skeleton likely belonged to someone from the underground palace who died after an unforeseen change, making the group more cautious.

• Wei Xuan warned that Source Qi could erode their bodies, while Madam Xuanyin questioned how it had coexisted with yin qi for so long.

Wei Xuan and the others opened the stone gate, unleashing dense yin qi and Source-Qi, and discovered that Song Wen's cauldron could resist the erosion. Shadow Void revealed that a powerful Void Demon lay asleep behind the gate, chained and apparently used in an experiment; as Venerable Gu Huan attacked Song Wen for refusing to investigate, Song Wen formed a plan to deal with the group.

• Wei Xuan opened the stone gate, and waves of yin qi and Source-Qi surged out over the group.
• Venerable Gu Huan ordered Song Wen to enter the gate after seeing his cauldron resist the Source-Qi, and threatened to kill him when he refused.

• Song Wen reconsidered fleeing after learning the Void Demon seemed unaware of them, and came up with a plan to deal with Wei Xuan and the others.
• Venerable Gu Huan attacked Song Wen with a palm of corpse qi.

Song Wen vanished deeper into the cavern, leaving Wei Xuan, Venerable Gu Huan, Madam Xuanyin, and Dao Lord Shushi to face attacks from immortal-realm Void Demons. After their bronze bell was destroyed and two sound waves struck, Wei Xuan fled ahead while the others relied on soul-defense treasures.

• Song Wen ignored Wei Xuan and Venerable Gu Huan's orders to stop and accelerated until he vanished from their perception.
• Venerable Gu Huan entered the cavern after Song Wen, and Wei Xuan, Madam Xuanyin, and Dao Lord Shushi followed, but they found no trace of him.

Song Wen devoured Venerable Gu Huan and prepared to pursue Wei Xuan and the others, but the Second-Order Immortal Realm Void Demon awakened and forced him to flee.

• Song Wen protected the fleeing group from the Void Demons' spiritual sense attacks, but Venerable Gu Huan fell behind and crashed through a door.
• Song Wen devoured Venerable Gu Huan's cultivation, hid his aura, and planned to approach Wei Xuan and the others as Jiang Yushan.
• Shadow Void warned Song Wen that the Second-Order Immortal Realm Void Demon had awakened, so Song Wen shattered a blood crystal and fled among a hundred manifestations.
• The Void Demon smashed through the stone door and destroyed Song Wen's manifestations, while Song Wen used a Death-Substitute Puppet to escape several miles up the Vertical Tunnel.
• Song Wen's black lightning struck the pursuing Void Demon in its mouth, blasting its tentacles back and sending it falling from the tunnel.

• Song Wen learned from Shadow Void that three human immortals had reached the Vertical Tunnel, then emerged and claimed Gu Huan was fighting the Void Demon below.

Song Wen killed the giant wolf Void Demon and the immortals he had lured out, then learned that Chi Wang had taught them the Corpse King Blood Refinement Art. He decided to target Chi Wang next and went to Autumn-Knowing Pavilion, where he accused Wang Hefeng of exposing his whereabouts.

• Song Wen rejected the giant wolf Void Demon's offer, killed it, and questioned Wei Xuan and Madam Xuanyin after their souls awakened.
• Madam Xuanyin revealed that Chi Wang had taught them the Corpse King Blood Refinement Art, cultivated it himself, and lived in a cave abode southwest of Dragonspine Market.

He fled into the air while the Pavilion Master pursued him, and the chase continued as Song Wen used a blood-burning escape technique.

• Song Wen publicly accused Wang Hefeng and Autumn-Knowing Pavilion of luring him into a secret chamber and revealed that Dao Lord Shushi, Venerable Gu Huan, Madam Xuanyin, and Wei Xuan had died fighting over his treasures.
• The Pavilion Master rejected Song Wen's claims and attacked him, damaging the shop and killing or injuring guests and maidservants with the clash's residual force.
• Song Wen fled into the street and shouted that Autumn-Knowing Pavilion had colluded with the Heaven-Questioning Alliance to seize customers' treasures and silence witnesses.
• The Pavilion Master pursued Song Wen and summoned a giant corpse coffin, while Song Wen's bronze rod failed to stop it and was knocked away.
• Song Wen escaped the coffin with a blood-burning technique, but the Pavilion Master recalled the coffin and kept pace with him, challenging how long his blood essence could last.

Song Wen used the nine black banners to trap himself behind a chain barrier while the Pavilion Master tried to capture him and stalled for Chi Wang's arrival. When Chi Wang reached the battlefield, Song Wen fled as fast as he could, but Chi Wang plunged into the formation after him.

• The Pavilion Master repeatedly pursued Song Wen, who escaped each attack by burning more essence blood and pretending to weaken.

• Song Wen confirmed to Chi Wang that he had killed Wei Xuan and the others, and said he had come for the Corpse King Blood Refinement Art.
