• Ning Fa fled the lava cavern with Hei Yu and the Crimson Crystal Stele.
• A Peak Mid Nascent Soul expert appeared in the cavern, then left after receiving word that Fu Ling Hall had found Sun Peak’s entrance.

Ning Fa escaped the cave’s divine-soul attack, confirmed that Sikong Yuanlie and his companions had fled, and received an urgent call for help from Mingguang. As Ning Fa rushed to the rescue, Sikong Yuanlie planned a new move against him while Mingguang’s group struggled against Blood Desire Old Demon’s formation.

Ning Fa arrived as True Lord Mingguang, Ku Chen, and Fairy Chaolu were close to defeat, then confronted Blood Desire Old Demon’s Joyful Demon with Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder. The Myriad Desire Sect cultivators sacrificed their arms to strengthen the blood formation, and its corrosive mist began withering the defenders’ Sky Water Profound Wood.

• Blood Desire Old Demon transformed into the Joyful Demon, which overwhelmed Mingguang’s and Fairy Chaolu’s treasures and survived Mingguang’s golden lightning talisman.
• A Golden Thunder Cloud blasted open the Myriad Desire Joyful Banners’ formation, and Ning Fa arrived to aid Mingguang, Ku Chen, and Fairy Chaolu.
• Ning Fa’s Yimu Sword, wreathed in Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder, suppressed the Joyful Demon’s blood-red curved blade.
• Blood Desire Old Demon ordered the glamorous woman and the big-eared cultivator to sacrifice their left arms, empowering the formation with blood mist.
• The blood mist began withering Ku Chen’s Sky Water Profound Wood and weakened Ning Fa’s divine sense and connection to the Yimu Sword.

Ning Fa broke Blood Desire Old Demon's ambush, killed him and his fellow demonic cultivators, and freed the others. After dispersing the blood mist afflicting Luo Feixuan, Ning Fa and Mingguang discovered that her life force was still rapidly fading.

• After Luo Feixuan passed the tribulation, the flower became three linked crescent-shaped objects that entered her forehead, and she reached the Nascent Soul Realm with a transformed Water Attribute spiritual body.
• Luo Feixuan awakened in a daze and accidentally froze the area around her; Ning Fa and the others noticed her unusual demeanor and power.
• Luo Feixuan thanked Ning Fa for coming to her aid, while he continued to suspect that her transformation had changed more than her cultivation.

Ning Fa discovered that Sun Peak concealed a damaged Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure, the Crimson Thunder Pagoda, and realized Daoist Yan Yuan had been channeling the fire marsh’s spiritual power to repair it. He followed Murong Zhaoxue’s mark toward one of the peaks while two foreign cultivators decided to search Sun Peak for clues about their missing Ancestor Zhuo Yue.

• Ning Fa saw the Crimson Thunder Pagoda above Sun Peak and deduced that Daoist Yan Yuan had used the fire marsh to repair the damaged treasure.
• Ning Fa found that flight was restricted and detected Murong Zhaoxue’s Spiritual Power Mark on the leftmost path.

• The woman explained that they had come to investigate Ancestor Zhuo Yue’s disappearance after her battle with Daoist Yan Yuan, and the pair chose the far-right peak to continue their search.

Ning Fa learned that Lei Prison Mountain had arranged to destroy Fu Ling Hall with the help of traitorous elders and other factions, but he pressed on toward the summit to seek the Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure. He found Murong Zhaoxue, Gu Huai, and Liang Jun besieged inside the silver-white palace, where Supreme Water Divine Thunder was helping them resist their attackers.

The chapter ended with Madam Mingluo unable to retaliate as she desperately defended her Sea of Consciousness from Ning Fa’s Spiritual Heart Divine Thunder.

• Ning Fa intercepted Madam Mingluo, restrained her, and began searching her soul for the origin of her Soul Lotus as True Monarch Mingxiao and the others watched in fear.

Ning Fa arrived in time to help Murong Zhaoxue, Gu Huai, and Liang Jun defeat the Lei Prison Mountain cultivators, then learned of Fu Ling Hall’s betrayal and the Haolei Tower. He used a Crimson Crystal Stele to suppress the restriction around the Ice Pearl and sent the Spiritual Firebird to absorb it with the aid of his Supreme Water Divine Thunder.

• Ning Fa burned Madam Mingluo’s body, collected her Storage Ring, and joined the fight against True Monarch Kuhun, True Monarch Mingxiao, and the cultivator surnamed Ma.

• Ning Fa learned that the Ice Pearl was surrounded by a dangerous spiritual flame and that the Spiritual Firebird could absorb it with his Supreme Water Divine Thunder.
• Ning Fa used the Crimson Crystal Stele to disperse the crimson thunderclouds, then sent the Spiritual Firebird toward the Ice Pearl, where it began resisting the white spiritual flames.

Ning Fa collected the Ice Pearl and used the Crimson Crystal Stele to enter the Haolei Tower, where a spatial halo dragged him into a battle between Fu Ling Hall and Lei Prison Mountain. He arrived as Fu Ling Hall’s outnumbered leaders faced powerful enemies, including Yan Jingchen, and found himself caught in the confrontation.

• Ning Fa used the Spiritual Firebird to swallow and temporarily restrain the Ice Pearl, then collected it as the deep pool vanished.
• Ning Fa activated the Crimson Crystal Stele and entered the Haolei Tower, while Murong Zhaoxue, Gu Huai, and Liang Jun left to find an exit.
• Ning Fa found two spatial halos inside the tower and was pulled through one into a crimson hall where powerful cultivators were fighting.

• Ning Fa saw that Fu Ling Hall’s three remaining fighters were outnumbered seven to three, with one of their elders already dead.

Ning Fa joined Xuan Po, True Lord Tian Xu, and Qiao Sheng in their battle against Lei Prison Mountain’s forces over the miniature Haolei Tower.

• Ning Fa activated his Mysterious Thunder True Body and four purple-grade thunder armor components, then used Golden Blade Thunder Aura to raise the grade of his armor and swords to the fourth-grade mid-tier.

Ning Fa overwhelmed Yan Jingchen with his Five Elements thunder swords, but Yan Jingchen’s strange transformation and Sikong Yuanlie’s life-draining spirit treasure turned the battle against him. As Sikong Yuanlie prepared to fire the Mysterious Light Magic Gourd, Ning Fa brought out the Five Flames Lamp.

• Ning Fa’s five thunder swords knocked Jin Feng and Wang Jinglong’s treasures aside and suppressed Yan Jingchen after he transformed into a black and white thunder dragon.
• Yan Jingchen ignored his wounds, swallowed the five swords, and then exploded into black and white thunderclouds that tangled with Ning Fa’s sword.
• Sikong Yuanlie activated the Mysterious Light Magic Gourd, sacrificing his life force as its Annihilation Mysterious Light gathered and locked onto Ning Fa.
