Chapter Summaries

Ning Fa learned that the lockdown of the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range had made his mission difficult, but he remained determined to find a way in. While tracking Liao Wuyin and Wen Xiuxin outside Aisa City, he discovered them meeting with his clansman Ning Daozhen, who noticed him and invited him over.

Ning Fa met Ning Daozhen in Tianli's rear, where Ning Daozhen revealed that the Tianli were forging a powerful Nine Divisions World-Suppressing Pagoda replica and that he wanted to steal the Innate Five Elements Qi used to make it. Ning Fa considered cooperating but remained wary of Ning Daozhen's motives, and the chapter ended as Ning Daozhen produced a blood-red orb.

• Ning Fa flew to meet Ning Daozhen, who recognized him and guessed that he had come to destroy the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range restrictions.

Ning Fa and Ning Daozhen agreed to cooperate in breaking the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range’s restriction and sabotaging the Tianli people’s Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure Replica. After Ji Lianxing secretly reported the plan to her master, Ning Fa appeared in her room and confronted her about her true intentions.

• Ning Fa recognized Ning Daozhen’s Immortal Extermination Bead, then signed a Golden Profound Spirit Contract with him to secure their cooperation.
• Ning Fa gathered his team in Aisa City and told them about the Tianli people’s treasure-refining site, prompting them to agree to sabotage it.
• Ning Fa became suspicious when Ji Lianxing urged the team to proceed, recalling that she had previously opposed Xiao Pengyuan’s doubts about the mission.
• Ji Lianxing used the Night Soul Lamp to contact Shen Xinlan, who told her to join the sabotage and remain close to Ning Fa.
• Ning Fa appeared undetected in Ji Lianxing’s room after her conversation with Shen Xinlan and asked what had left her with no choice.

Ning Fa captured Ji Lianxing and defeated her divine soul attacks, then used the Moon Phase Soul Sealing Technique to bypass her defensive treasure and question her. Ji Lianxing endured his torture without revealing who had ordered her mission, leaving Ning Fa unable to learn the Wushi Demonic Palace’s plans.

• Ning Fa pulled Ji Lianxing’s divine soul into the Cage of the Moon after realizing she had plotted against him for the Wushi Demonic Palace.
• Ji Lianxing attacked with the Dark Firmament Soul-Shattering Spear, but Ning Fa deflected it with moon shadows and struck her with Moon Tribulation Heartfire.

• Ning Fa sealed Ji Lianxing’s soul with the Moon Phase Soul Sealing Technique, then woke her and demanded to know who had ordered her mission.
• Ji Lianxing endured Ning Fa’s painful interrogation without answering, and Ning Fa stopped when her Divine Soul Power began to weaken.

Ning Fa learned from Ji Lianxing that Shen Xinlan, Huangfu Hong, Pei Nanshu, and Tianli forces planned to ambush and kill him, and that Ji had revealed the location of the Qige Mountain Range Teleportation Array. He ordered her to keep deceiving Shen Xinlan, then traveled with his companions to meet Ning Daozhen, Xiao Han, and Dan Hongzi.

• Ning Fa pressured Ji Lianxing into revealing that she had spied on him under Shen Xinlan’s orders, while asking for his protection from Old Ghost Mo and Shen Xinlan.
• Ji Lianxing told Ning Fa that Shen Xinlan, Huangfu Hong, Pei Nanshu, and Tianli forces had joined in a plot to kill him, partly because of his connection to Zhu Lingyun.
• Ji Lianxing admitted that she had revealed the Qige Mountain Range Teleportation Array’s location, and Ning Fa ordered her to keep communicating with Shen Xinlan as usual.
• Three days later, Ning Fa and his companions left Aisa City and traveled northwest toward the gray-black mountain range.
• Ning Fa led the group to a lake, where Ning Daozhen emerged with Xiao Han of the Blood Heaven Sect and Dan Hongzi of the Pill Emperor Sect.

Ning Fa joined Ning Daozhen and the others as they entered the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range and made their way through its dangerous outer region. They reached the Five Elements Chaos Sealing Spirit Great Array, where their goal was to destroy two of its primary Array Eyes.

• Ning Daozhen opened a blood-lit passage through a deep pool, leading Ning Fa and the others into the mountain range.
• After a winged black snake attacked Xiao Pengyuan, Ning Daozhen warned the group not to provoke the restrictions and led them through the forest using a low-mana treasure to handle unavoidable Savage Beasts.
• At a swamp of Blacklight Toads, Ning Daozhen waited until noon, then used black gauze to carry the group safely across while the toads slept.
• Dan Hongzi told Ning Daozhen that Ning Fa's powerful divine soul might resist the returning being's influence, and suggested adding him to their plan; Ning Daozhen refused for now because the Primordial Soul True Spirit was crucial to restoring their incomplete souls.
• Ning Fa and the others reached the Five Elements Chaos Sealing Spirit Great Array, whose eighty-one Array Eyes included two primary targets they intended to destroy.

Ning Fa, Ning Daozhen, and their allies combined their methods to attack a main Array Eye in the Five Elements Chaos Sealing Spirit Great Array. They destroyed it and the other eight secondary Array Eyes, leaving the Five-Colored Spiritual Power to recede.

• Ning Daozhen urged the group to join forces, while Ning Fa and Hermit Xuyuan’s allies prepared their array-breaking method.
• Ning Fa and his companions assembled the Yin-Yang Chaotic Two Forms Array using five Top-grade Spirit Stones, with Bai Yueqiu, Ji Lianxing, Xiao Pengyuan, and Sang Wen taking their positions.
• Sang Wen used the array’s chaotic qi and a powerful black wooden bow to fire an arrow at the main Array Eye, blasting open a gap in its Five-Colored light screen.
• Ning Fa struck the Array Eye with Lesser Chaos Divine Thunder, while Ning Daozhen and the others attacked with a blood pearl, a Golden Talisman, and a black puppet.
• The main Array Eye exploded, followed by the destruction of the other eight secondary Array Eyes, and the surging Five-Colored Spiritual Power receded.

Ning Fa and his allies destroyed the mountain range’s restrictions with Sang Wen’s Chaos-Reversing Arrow and Zhuo Qing’s demonic blade. Ning Fa reunited with Zhuo Qing, who gave him a ten-thousand-year Thousand Soul Grass, while their allies went ahead to prepare a teleportation array.

• Sang Wen fired a second Chaos-Reversing Arrow at the next Array Eye, then collapsed from exhaustion and received a pill from Ning Fa.
• Zhuo Qing’s Purple-Black Demonic Blade destroyed the second main Array Eye and nearby secondary Array Eyes, breaking the five-colored light screen.
• Ning Daozhen revealed that he had arranged to meet someone, and Zhuo Qing arrived with several powerful transformed Magic Beasts.
• Ning Fa recognized Zhuo Qing, recalled their past, and thanked her for saving him in Moon Reflection Valley.
• Ning Daozhen sent his group ahead to the agreed location, while Zhuo Qing sent the Magic Beasts away to finish destroying the restrictions.
• Zhuo Qing gave Ning Fa a ten-leaf, ten-thousand-year Thousand Soul Grass for refining a Soul-Bending Pill.

Zhuo Qing revealed that her true name was Huangfu Qing, a descendant of the Zi Yin Immortal Dynasty whose divided soul had reunited with a Devil Race body. She asked Ning Fa to help her use a special Devil Race item to travel through an Ancient Demon Altar to Moluo Space, where the surviving Zi Yin descendants had gathered.

• Ning Fa removed the Soul Restraint he had placed on Zhuo Qing, and she revealed that her true name was Huangfu Qing and that she came from the Nine Dragons Sea.
• Huangfu Qing explained how the Blood Heaven Sect had planned to merge her soul with a captured Devil Race commander’s body and use her to reignite a Demonic Tribulation, but the plan split her soul between the body and the Blood Heaven Token.
• Huangfu Qing told Ning Fa that she had recovered in the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range and had used its Magic Beasts to strengthen her subordinates, not to carry out the Blood Heaven Sect First Elder’s revenge plan.
• Huangfu Qing said she had sensed a summons from the highest-grade Ancient Demon Altar in Moluo Space, where the remaining Zi Yin descendants had gathered, and wanted to join them.
• Huangfu Qing asked Ning Fa to lend her a special Devil Race item that could let her teleport to Moluo Space through the local Ancient Demon Altar, then offered him a Storage Ring as payment.

Ning Fa exchanged the Demon Source Ring replica for Zhuo Qing’s rare spiritual materials and learned of Innate Divine Thunder Seeds in Moluo Space, while she gave him a method that might also help him return to Nine Dragons Sea. He then joined Ning Daozhen and the others at Tianli’s Nine Divisions World-Suppressing Pagoda, where they prepared to destroy it before Tianli reinforcements could arrive.

• Ning Fa accepted Zhuo Qing’s high-grade Five Elements and Lightning materials and gave her the Demon Source Ring replica.
• Zhuo Qing told Ning Fa about Innate Divine Thunder Seeds in Moluo Space and offered him a way to travel there later; Ning Fa accepted the black pearl containing her method.
• Ning Fa returned to Ning Daozhen, Sang Wen, and the others, and they used a blood-filled pool to teleport away.
• Ning Daozhen led the group through a snow mountain and mist to the Nine Divisions World-Suppressing Pagoda, which drew vast quantities of Innate Five Elements Qi.
• Sang Wen urged the group to destroy the unfinished pagoda, while Ning Daozhen explained that his Blood Heaven River was blocking Tianli’s teleportation routes to the site.

Ning Fa and the others attacked the World-Suppressing Pagoda to seize the Innate Qi, while Liao Wuyin, Wen Xiuxin, and a powerful Ancient Spirit joined them in a fragile alliance. Inside the tower, the Tianli Holy Witch ordered the pagoda’s power unleashed after recognizing Ning Fa, leaving the defenders poised to escalate the battle.

• Ning Daozhen warned that Aisa City's reinforcements could arrive within three hours, and the group attacked the World-Suppressing Pagoda as its nine beasts fought back.
• Ning Fa exposed Liao Wuyin, Wen Xiuxin, and a black-lightning Ancient Spirit hiding nearby, and Ning Daozhen persuaded them to join forces against the tower.
• Ning Fa recognized the Ancient Spirit’s aura as similar to Lei E’s and worried that Lei Ming might have created another spirit.
• Inside the tower, Ling Yue refined a White Fragment with Innate Five Elements Qi while Tianli cultivators watched the attackers and lamented that reinforcements could not reach them.
• The Tianli Holy Witch appeared as an incarnation and ordered the defenders to feed all the Innate Five Elements Qi into the pagoda so it could use its World-Suppressing Domain.
• The Holy Witch enlarged the water-mirror image of Ning Fa, identifying him as the reason the defenders had to unleash the pagoda’s power.

Tianli forcibly activated the incomplete Nine Divisions World-Suppressing Pagoda, trapping Ning Fa and the Cangyuan cultivators in a confined space. Mei Danlun appeared as a Holy Witch incarnation, and the chapter ended with Ning Daozhen realizing the enemy was not the true Holy Witch.

• Mei Danlun ordered the Tianli cultivators to use the Five Elements beads to strengthen the pagoda and kill Ning Fa, even at the cost of delaying its refinement.
• The pagoda released Five-Colored Spiritual Light that swept Ning Fa and the other attackers into a confined space, where Five-Colored Ropes bound them and blocked their escape.
• Ning Fa sensed that the space above held Innate Five Elements Qi and something that strongly attracted the Source-Crossing Heavenly Book, then used the Star Roaming Compass to prepare to break the confinement.
• Mei Danlun and the other Tianli figures entered the space, and Sang Wen recognized Mei Danlun as Tianli’s newly advanced third Holy Witch.
• Sang Wen privately urged Ning Fa and the others to escape while he distracted the enemy, but Ning Daozhen identified Mei Danlun as an incarnation rather than the true Holy Witch.

Ning Fa resisted Mei Danlun’s World-Suppressing Domain with Thunder Magnetic Yuan Light, frustrating the Tianli cultivators’ effort to kill him. When Mei Danlun tried to recruit Ning Daozhen and the other Ancient Spirits, Ning Daozhen appeared to accept and unleashed a blood dragon against the domain.

• Ning Fa revealed his identity to Mei Danlun and vowed to kill him for his connection to Aruoye.
• Mei Danlun unleashed Town Origin Dharma Spears throughout the World-Suppressing Domain, concentrating most of their attacks on Ning Fa.
• Ning Fa used Thunder Magnetic Yuan Light and Divine Thunder of the Five Elements to suppress the spears, while Blue Lightning and Little Ice helped defend him.
• Sang Wen warned Ning Fa that he was about to use a costly method, but Ning Fa told him to wait and continued wearing down the domain.
• Mei Danlun offered Ning Daozhen and the other Ancient Spirits amnesty if they helped kill Ning Fa; Ning Daozhen agreed, then summoned a blood dragon that charged at the domain.

Ning Fa fought off Mei Danlun, the Tianli Nascent Soul Cultivators, and the Ancient Spirits, while discovering that Bai Yueqiu had been controlled through the inheritance at Lei Hongdao. After escaping the World-Suppressing Domain and summoning powerful lightning defenses, he faced a renewed assault as Mei Danlun prepared a sinister bone-like sword.

• Xiao Han revealed his puppet shell and Kirin Mask as Dan Hongzi used the Black and White Chess Formation to defend against the World-Suppressing Domain.
• Lei E, Liao Wuyin, and Wen Xiuxin attacked Ning Fa, while Blue Lightning and Little Ice counterattacked to protect their master.
• Bai Yueqiu broke free of the Five-Colored Ropes and attacked Ning Fa; he recognized her black eyes as evidence that she had been controlled through the inheritance at Lei Hongdao.
• Ning Fa vanished from the World-Suppressing Domain and reappeared outside it, clad in Thunder Armor and wielding the Five-Colored Lightning round mirror.
• Mei Danlun ordered the others to kill Ning Fa, who summoned ten Mountain Suppressing Thunder Mountains and another ring of Thunder Magnetic Yuan Light to block their attacks.
• Mei Danlun tore off his left arm and transformed it into a blood-patterned White Longsword.

Ning Fa broke through the boundary between the lower and upper spaces with the Zhou Tian Yan Lei Mirror’s strongest attack, then reached the White Fragment guarded by Ling Yue. As the cultivators pursued him, the Source-Crossing Heavenly Book’s reaction made clear that the fragment was his true prize.

• Mei Danlun empowered his bone sword with blood essence, but Liuying used the restored Five Flames Lamp to trap it in layers of fire lotuses.
• Ning Fa fired a five-colored lightning spear into the upper boundary, shattering it and exhausting much of his Mana and the Zhou Tian Yan Lei Mirror’s power.
• Ning Fa entered the upper space and blocked the opening with a Five Flames Lotus while Mei Danlun, Lei E, Bai Yueqiu, and the others pursued him.
• Ning Fa found Tianli Core Formation cultivators and Ling Yue in the upper space, with a glowing White Fragment protected by a Five-Colored Light Barrier before her.
• Ning Fa focused on the White Fragment as the Source-Crossing Heavenly Book in his Sea of Consciousness reacted with intense longing.

Ning Fa used the abundant Innate Five Elements Qi to unleash supreme metal and supreme fire Innate Divine Thunder, destroying Mei Danlun’s origin pagoda spirit and killing his incarnation. As the battle turned in Ning Fa’s favor, the Ancient Spirits fled, and Ning Fa struck down Liao Wuyin, leaving behind a mysterious black crystal.

• Mei Danlun rushed at Ning Fa while Ning Fa broke the barrier around the Innate Five Elements Qi, prompting Mei Danlun to summon the unfinished origin pagoda spirit and absorb the Qi.
• Ning Daozhen, Xiao Han, and Dan Hongzi moved toward the Innate Five Elements Qi as Lei E and the other Ancient Spirits attacked them, while Sang Wen’s group fought the Tianli Cultivators.
• Ning Fa formed supreme metal and supreme fire Innate Divine Thunder, which absorbed matching Innate Qi and shattered the origin pagoda spirit before killing Mei Danlun’s incarnation.
• The Tianli Cultivators and Ancient Spirits recoiled in fear, and Lei E, Liao Wuyin, and Wen Xiuxin fled as Sang Wen’s group intensified its attacks.
• Ning Fa pursued the fleeing Ancient Spirits with Innate Divine Thunder, destroying Liao Wuyin’s defenses and body; a mysterious black crystal remained where he had vanished.

Ning Fa annihilated Lei E and the Tianli cultivators, then had to resist the Moon Tribulation Heartfire’s murderous influence. Ling Yue revealed she had saved Xia Xinlan and Ji Qingqing and threatened to destroy the White Fragment if Ning Fa killed Ye Ji, while Sang Wen urged him to kill Ling Yue.

• Ning Fa used three Innate Divine Thunders to destroy Lei E, then collected the black thunder pearl and Liao Wuyin’s black crystal.
• Ning Fa killed the bald Tianli Nascent Soul Cultivator and helped Blue Lightning and Little Ice defeat the remaining Tianli fighters, while Ye Ji suffered under the Moon Tribulation Heartfire.
• Ning Fa prepared to kill Ye Ji, but Ling Yue pleaded for her life and revealed that she had saved Xia Xinlan and Ji Qingqing.
• Ling Yue threatened to destroy the White Fragment if Ning Fa killed Ye Ji, and Sang Wen urged Ning Fa to kill Ling Yue because she was the Moon Lord’s daughter and a Moon Maiden.

Ning Fa absorbed the White Fragment and gathered the Innate Five Elements Qi before his group began destroying the Realm-Suppressing Pagoda. Ling Yue opened an escape route and warned them that reinforcements were coming, leaving her behind with Ye Ji.

• Ning Fa absorbed the White Fragment into the Heavenly Book and collected the Innate Five Elements Qi, offering Ning Daozhen twenty percent before they agreed to discuss a Primordial Soul True Spirit later.
• Ning Fa and the others attacked the Realm-Suppressing Pagoda, while Ning Fa secured the strange bone sword and placed a restriction on Wen Xiuxin.
• Ning Fa examined Bai Yueqiu, who remained under Lei Ming's control, and searched for a weak point in the pagoda with his Law-Breaking Thunder Eyes.
• Ling Yue opened a hole in the space and warned the group that her mother and others were approaching, so Ning Fa swept everyone through the exit.
• Ling Yue removed the white flames tormenting Ye Ji, who raged that Ning Fa had matched her Moon God Art, while Ling Yue watched the escape route fade.

After returning from the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range, Ning Fa demanded the truth about the Primordial Soul Splitting Art and learned that an Ancient Immortal was using its practitioners as vessels for resurrection. Ning Daozhen invited him to seek a legendary Soul Nurturing Divine Spring in the Abyssal Heavenly Pool, and Ning Fa considered joining the expedition.

• Ning Daozhen led Ning Fa and the others through a Blood Spring Teleportation Array to escape the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range as savage beasts poured out.
• Ning Fa insisted that Ning Daozhen explain the full story, and Dan Hongzi revealed that the Primordial Soul Splitting Art could plant Soul Seeds that might host an Ancient Immortal's rebirth.
• Dan Hongzi explained that a Blood Heaven Sect First Elder had recorded the Abyssal Heavenly Pool's impending return and the existence within it of a fifth-rank Soul Nurturing Divine Spring.
• Ning Daozhen said that he and Dan Hongzi hoped to use the spring to cultivate a Primordial Soul True Spirit and resist the Ancient Immortal's influence.
• Ning Daozhen invited Ning Fa to join them because his Innate Divine Thunder could help break the restriction guarding the spring, and Ning Fa considered the offer for its potential benefits to his divine soul and Moon God Heart.

Ning Fa secured help for his return journey and revealed that Huangfu Hong, Shen Xinlan, and Pei Nanshu were conspiring against him with Tianli. While Ning Fa and Ji Lianxing began a plan to evade their ambush, the conspirators set out to intercept him as he searched for Thousand Soul Grass.

• Ning Fa agreed to give Ning Daozhen and Dan Hongzi thirty percent of the Innate Five Elements Qi in exchange for help and told them whom he needed to pick up.
• Ning Fa made Xiao Pengyuan and Sang Wen sign a spirit contract, then revealed that Huangfu Hong, Shen Xinlan, and Pei Nanshu planned to cooperate with Tianli and attack him.
• Ning Fa warned that his enemies had likely trapped the usual route through the Qige Mountain Range and said he had a plan; Ji Lianxing followed him deeper into the cave.
• Shen Xinlan told Huangfu Hong and Pei Nanshu that Ning Fa had sabotaged the Nine Divisions World-Suppressing Pagoda and was seeking Thousand Soul Grass in the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain Range.
• Huangfu Hong, Shen Xinlan, and Pei Nanshu decided to kill Ning Fa and departed through a hidden Teleportation Array to wait for him.
