• Qin Hao summoned his time doppelganger and light doppelganger, whose Storage Spirit Rings held 230 million cloud-pattern stones.
• Qin Hao and his companions discussed which treasure to exchange for, then he set off for the Red Moon Palace to inspect the options.
• Qin Hao noticed that the light doppelganger cultivated faster than the time doppelganger inside the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror.

She presented the Thousand Shadows Spirit Transformation Art, a divine soul doppelganger technique suited to Qin Hao’s powerful soul and six doppelgangers.

• Eugene, the Blood Crow Captain, and the others recognized the technique as the Four Extremes Divine Domain’s most terrifying doppelganger art, while the Red-Clad Woman said Qin Hao’s powerful divine soul and six doppelgangers made him ideally suited to it.

Qin Hao read the Thousand Shadows Spirit Transformation Art and learned that it could greatly strengthen doppelgangers, merge them into the true self, and resurrect either one if another survived. After studying its strict requirements and costs, he realized his powerful divine soul made him an ideal candidate and chose to exchange for it.

• Qin Hao read that the Thousand Shadows Spirit Transformation Art could improve existing doppelgangers and make them far stronger than those created by ordinary techniques.

He reached the area beneath the Red Moon and hid a cultivation cave for his Light Doppelganger, while elsewhere an unknown figure fled from two pursuing Dao-Origin Divine Lords.

• Qin Hao realized the Red-Clad Woman had teleported him far from the Red Moon Palace and confirmed that no cultivators or Outer Realm Demon Spirits were nearby.
• Qin Hao witnessed thousands of incoming cultivators appear and vanish across the sky, including peak-stage Dao-Origin Divine Lords and powerful Divine Kings from the Four Extremes Divine Domain.

• Qin Hao sensed the battle above the Rubble Forest and wondered who was fighting on the surface.

Though they dismissed him as only a Law Divine Lord, Qin Hao killed Marquis Cangding with one slash, leaving Venerable Po Jun stunned.

• After half a day, Yun Chang pointed out the hidden entrance, and Qin Hao sensed something unusual about the ground fifty meters below.

His search led him away from a nearby vein, while the Golden Palace Venerable Emperor and Yun Xiezi fled after sensing his powerful divine sense.

• Xuan Yinchen found that entrants had been scattered and learned from the Red Moon rankings that the Red Moon World Stone cost 99.9 billion pieces of Cloud-Pattern Stone.
• Xuan Yinchen used his divine sense to uncover a dozen or so Cloud-Pattern Stones, then collected them and continued searching.

• The remaining Law Divine Lords recognized the danger and tried to flee, but some found themselves suppressed by Xuan Yinchen's divine sense.

Qin Hao killed the five Law Divine Lords who had been left behind, then led Yun Chang and the Destruction Legion in excavating the Cloud-Pattern Stone Vein.
