• Han Feng questioned why Tang Zhen had gone to such lengths to invite him when Flame Valley could hire a Pill Tower elder.
• Tang Zhen admitted that his true request was for Han Feng to heal Flame Valley's injured ancestor and promised a generous reward.

• A mutated Kui Ox beast transformed into a half-beast man, defeated nine other powerful half-beasts, and unified the Ancient Wilds.
• The Kui Ox half-beast ordered the mutated hordes to march as Wilds Town’s guards and residents faced the approaching miasma and beast tide.

• The Wind-Lightning Pavilion, Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, and Ice River Valley fought through the night to contain the mutated beast tide, but their defensive formation weakened as their experts grew exhausted.

• Han Feng ordered Xiao Yan, Xun'er, Tian Xin, and Qing Lin to depart with him at once.

Han Feng joined the Central Plains alliance at the Blood-Red Defense Line and rejected calls to negotiate with the savage beasts, leading the gathered experts to prepare an offensive. Before the attack could begin, ten Dou Sheng-level beasts appeared before the allied camp.

• Han Feng arrived at the Blood-Red Defense Line, where Feng Xian and Medicine Elder explained that three savage-beast Dou Shengs had been repelled and that some allied leaders wanted peace.

• The Small Pill Tower's Grand Elder ordered the allied army to prepare an offensive at dawn.
• A scout reported that the beast tide had returned, and the gathered leaders saw ten terrifying Dou Sheng-level savage beasts led by the Five-Star Dou Sheng Kui ox.

Han Feng and the human Saints defied the ten beast Saints’ threats and launched a coordinated battle to stop them from invading the Central Plains. Han Feng charged three of the strongest enemies, and the chapter ended with Saint-level fights erupting across the Ancient Wilds border.

• The beast Saints threatened the human alliance, but Han Feng mocked them and vowed to make the Ancient Wilds their burial ground.

Han Feng and the human fighters battled the beast saints in a fierce stalemate until Azure Fairy used a jade pendant to kill Mountain-Splitting Suan. Han Feng seized the opening to slay Illusory Miasma Ji and Blood Tusk Rider, abruptly shifting the battle.

• Han Feng held off Profound Abyss Ancient Kui, Desolate Prison Colossal Fang, and Master of Thousand Threads Gu while the other human fighters battled their beast opponents.
• Mountain-Splitting Suan launched a desperate attack on Azure Fairy, who crushed an ancient jade pendant to unleash a Five-Star Dou Sheng sword strike.

• Han Feng recognized the jade pendant as the life-saving token he had given Medicine Elder and wondered how Azure Fairy had obtained it.
• Han Feng used the momentary distraction to strike down Illusory Miasma Ji and Blood Tusk Rider with Skybreaker.

• The Profound Abyss Ancient Kui burned its blood and joined the Desolate Prison Colossal Fang and Master of Thousand Threads Gu in a frenzied assault on Han Feng.
• Fire Cloud Ancestor, the Heavenly Sound Saint, and two puppets overwhelmed two Two-Star Dou Sheng ferocious beasts, while Azure Fairy and Heavenly Nether Old Demon attacked the beast tide.

• The three ferocious beasts combined their power into a barrier, but Han Feng’s sword cracked it and wounded them.
• Hun Miesheng appeared and reinforced the barrier, helping the four ferocious beasts withstand Han Feng’s sword and turning the battle again.

The Pill Tower Ancestor appeared on the battlefield and forced Hun Miesheng to withdraw, prompting the ferocious beasts to retreat. Back at the northern border command hall, Han Feng declared that the Soul Hall would have no place in the Central Plains and asked the assembled leaders to respond.

• Hun Miesheng arrived to support the ferocious beasts, rejected Han Feng’s accusations, and threatened him over his attacks on the Soul Hall.
• The Pill Tower Ancestor appeared on a green ox, and Hun Miesheng withdrew rather than risk confronting him.

• The human Saints returned to the northern border city, but the Pill Tower Ancestor had already wandered away.
• Han Feng declared the Soul Hall an enemy of humanity and asked the faction leaders who agreed or objected.

• Han Feng asked the assembled sect leaders to support the execution of the Soul Hall, and the major factions and other sects agreed to join the purge.
• Medicine Elder declared that the coalition would eradicate the Soul Hall’s remnants, while Han Feng ordered the Pill Tower to provide locations for its strongholds.
• The Pill Tower distributed its intelligence map an hour later, and the coalition began attacking Soul Hall branch halls throughout the Central Plains.

• The coalition’s leaders gathered above the three Celestial Dipper Halls, and Han Feng appeared alone above the Heaven Hall to challenge Hun Miesheng.

• Han Feng and the human alliance found Soul Hall’s three headquarters abandoned, then destroyed the empty halls.
• Medicine Elder, Fire Cloud Ancestor, and the Heavenly Sound Saint led a continent-wide purge that wiped out Soul Hall’s exposed strongholds and remnants.

• Hun Miesheng met with seven beast saints in the Ancient Wilds and dismissed the destruction of Soul Hall’s strongholds as insignificant.
• Hun Miesheng vowed to personally kill Han Feng.

After the vicious beasts proposed a one-year truce that barred Half-Saints and above from fighting, Han Feng accepted the deal so he could cultivate in seclusion. Before entering the chamber, he made arrangements to protect Falling Star Pavilion and guide the people in his care, leaving the story with him sealed away from the outside world.

• Cold Bone Marquis announced that the vicious beasts would agree to a one-year truce, with only Dou Venerables and weaker cultivators allowed to fight when it ended.
• Human leaders argued over whether the offer was a trap or a chance to recover, while Han Feng recognized the beasts’ advantage in lower-level battles and stayed silent because he also needed time to cultivate.
• Han Feng accepted the truce and entrusted the defense handover to Medicine Elder, Feng Xian, and the others before returning to Falling Star Pavilion with its core members.
• Han Feng gave Medicine Elder three jade talismans containing Five-Star Dou Sheng strikes and asked him to protect Falling Star Pavilion and Xiao Yan during the seclusion.

At the Bloodstained Defense Line, Medicine Elder survived a joint ambush by Hun Miesheng and Profound Abyss Ancient Kui thanks to another talisman Han Feng had given him.

• Han Feng learned the Golden Crow Radiant Sun Art from his jade pendant and replaced the Nine Yang Divine Art with the primordial spirit art.
• After years of seclusion, Han Feng reached Nine-Star Dou Sheng Grand Perfection, but he sensed Medicine Elder’s jade talisman shatter and immediately left to save him.

• Medicine Elder turned to face the attackers without fear and mocked them.

Han Feng appeared on the Northern Frontier battlefield and swiftly killed Profound Abyss Ancient Kui and Hun Miesheng, ending the beast tide and securing victory for the human coalition. As the Ancient Wilds were sealed, the Bodhi Ancient Tree revealed itself deep within the region.

• Medicine Elder told Profound Abyss Ancient Kui and Hun Miesheng to face his eldest disciple, and Han Feng appeared behind them.
• Han Feng killed Profound Abyss Ancient Kui with a golden sword strike.
• Hun Miesheng summoned void black fire and tried to escape through a spatial passage, but Han Feng killed him and took his head.
• The ferocious beasts fled after their leader fell, and Medicine Elder ordered the coalition to pursue them and seal the Ancient Wilds.
• The Northern Frontier war ended, and the Bodhi Ancient Tree appeared deep within the Ancient Wilds.

Han Feng led the human factions to the Bodhi Ancient Tree, where Xiao Yan endured a hundred years of reincarnation and reached Peak Dou Venerable. After returning to Falling Star Pavilion with Bodhi Seeds, Xiao Yan was chosen to attend the Ancient Clan's coming-of-age ceremony alongside Han Feng.

• Han Feng suppressed the Bodhi Ancient Tree's five Half-Saint puppets and proposed that each faction send its younger generation to seek opportunities.
• The Bodhi Ancient Tree drew the young prodigies inside, where they were trapped in illusions; everyone emerged except Xiao Yan, who remained beneath the tree for enlightenment.
• After a month, Xiao Yan awoke having experienced a hundred years, reached Peak Dou Venerable, and gathered the Bodhi Seeds the tree released.
• Medicine Elder received an invitation to the Ancient Clan's coming-of-age ceremony and sent Han Feng and Xiao Yan to attend.

Han Feng and Xiao Yan traveled with Yaoxin and Qing Lin to the Ancient Clan, and Han Feng gave Xiao Yan the Red Lotus Karmic Fire to help him advance the Flame Mantra. They arrived near Ancient Sacred City, where Xiao Yan eagerly anticipated seeing Xun'er again.

• Medicine Elder gave Xiao Yan an Ancient Clan invitation and said he and Han Feng should go together.
• On the journey east, Xiao Yan told Han Feng about Xun'er returning to the Ancient Clan, Zi Yan beginning her evolution, and Queen Medusa entering the Nine Netherworld Python Clan's forbidden grounds.

• Han Feng, Xiao Yan, Yaoxin, and Qing Lin traveled through spatial wormholes toward Ancient Sacred City, the entrance to the Ancient Realm.
• As they neared the city, Xiao Yan thought of Xun'er, and Han Feng teased him by offering to speak with Gu Yuan or snatch her away if necessary.
