Rulers gathered and decided to seek information in Three Realms City while Nie Yun was trapped inside a formation facing Hopeless Water and Sky Cloud Fire. With his defenses failing, he decided to try storing the two forces in his Storage World.

• Qianxue Ancestor, Carefree Immortal, Fu Xu, and Mo Tian argued about the coming calamity before agreeing to visit Shen Jun in Three Realms City.
• Qianxue Ancestor took Mo Tian, Carefree Immortal, and the others aboard his ancient ship and headed toward Three Realms City.
• Nie Yun used his Ruler longsword and soul against the Hopeless Water, but the water overwhelmed them until the Wisdom Sword severed its influence.
• The formation changed the Hopeless Water into Sky Cloud Fire, which destroyed Nie Yun's sword-qi defenses and began burning through his Silver Leaf Shell.
• Nie Yun realized he might store the unrefined Hopeless Water and Sky Cloud Fire in his Storage World and prepared to try before the formation intensified.

Nie Yun failed to collect the Sky Cloud Fire and Hopeless Water, even after merging seven Level One Worlds into his Storage World. He discovered that the Small World’s unrefined Heart of Space might let him absorb the space itself, but the Heart fled as he reached for it.

• Nie Yun twice tried to seize the Sky Cloud Fire with his Soul Force and used the Wisdom Sword to sever the burning connection before it could destroy his soul.
• When the Silver Leaf Shell began to crack, Nie Yun merged seven Level One Worlds into his Storage World and tried again to collect the water and fire, but the Storage World remained too weak.
• Nie Yun realized that refining the Small World’s Heart of Space could let him merge the space into his Storage World, and he spotted that Qianxue Ancestor had not refined its Heart.
• Nie Yun carved a path through the Hopeless Water with his Flowing Light Spear and Ruler Divine Weapon longsword, then flew toward the Heart of Space.
• As Nie Yun reached to seize it, the Heart of Space rumbled and fled, revealing that it possessed its own intelligence.

Nie Yun captured the Heart of Space by luring it into the Storage World, where it revealed itself as Jing Xin, the Artifact Spirit of the Chaos Heart-Calming Bottle. Learning that Jing Xin had once been the Heavenly Dao and devoured a Heart of Space to take physical form gave Nie Yun hope that Tantai Lingyue might be restored, but he still could not refine the bottle without reaching the old man's strength.

• Nie Yun lured the Heart of Space into the Storage World with its aura and trapped it.
• The Heart of Space begged Nie Yun to spare it and submitted to him, appearing as a little girl.
• Jing Xin told Nie Yun she had originally been a Heavenly Dao and had gained a body after devouring a Heart of Space, prompting him to wonder if Tantai Lingyue could do the same.
• Jing Xin revealed that the Chaos Heart-Calming Bottle's creator had been killed by Nie Tong and showed Nie Yun the creator's image, which matched the strange corpse he had seen in the Ten Absolutes Ancient Land.
• Jing Xin told Nie Yun that acknowledging him as master had not refined the bottle, and that he needed to become at least as strong as the old man outside.

Nie Yun escaped the Chaos Heart-Calming Bottle with Jingxin’s help and used the Sky-Breaking Cone to break the seals without alerting Qianxue Ancestor. He remained trapped aboard the ancient ship until a discarded Wine Gourd broke the hull’s seal and swept him into the Chaos Ocean.

• Jingxin told Nie Yun she could control Sky Cloud Fire and Hopeless Water but could not break Qianxue Ancestor’s seals, and Nie Yun took control of the Hopeless Water.
• Jingxin recognized the Sky-Breaking Cone as a powerful seal-breaking treasure, and Nie Yun refined it and quietly broke the seals blocking the bottle’s exit.
• Jingxin stayed behind in the Chaos Heart-Calming Bottle, while Nie Yun escaped onto the ancient ship and spotted Qianxue Ancestor speaking with Carefree Immortal and other Rulers.
• Nie Yun hid as a speck of dust and drifted toward the ship’s edge, but discovered that Qianxue Ancestor had sealed the hull as well.
• Someone threw away an empty Wine Gourd, which shattered the hull’s seal and swept Nie Yun into the Chaos Ocean.

After escaping Qianxue Ancestor, Nie Yun recruited Duan Yi by promising him the Flowing Light Spear and headed with him to Three Realms City. Meanwhile, Qianxue Ancestor showed the other Rulers a bottle that could trap and torment even powerful cultivators, claiming Mi Xiang had already perished inside it.

• After Qianxue Ancestor's ship departed, Nie Yun released Duan Yi and asked how he had detected the Ruler's approach; Duan Yi explained that he could foresee danger.
• Nie Yun promised Duan Yi the Flowing Light Spear if he served faithfully, then took him to Three Realms City and settled at Tianyi Pavilion.
• Qianxue Ancestor arrived at Tianyi Pavilion with other Rulers, where Carefree Immortal mocked his formal attitude and Qianxue Ancestor boasted that he could make him suffer.
• Qianxue Ancestor revealed a bottle containing Sky Cloud Fire and Hopeless Water, saying it could trap Rulers and that Mi Xiang had been swallowed by it.
• Fu Xu and Mo Tian reacted with alarm to the bottle's power, while Carefree Immortal remained unconvinced.

Nie Yun escaped Qianxue Ancestor’s water bottle and left behind a taunting note, humiliating the Ruler in front of the others. After stabilizing his Storage World, Nie Yun headed with Duan Yi toward the Three Realms Battlefield, where they learned that places near the entrance had to be bought.

• Qianxue Ancestor opened his water bottle to show that Mi Xiang had supposedly been melted, but a note flew out declaring, “Old bastard, this lord is off!”
• Carefree Immortal, Mo Tian, and Fu Xu mocked Qianxue Ancestor, who ordered Qianxue Emperor to track down Mi Xiang and left with his dignity in tatters.
• Nie Yun finished cultivating, stabilized his Storage World, and received Duan Yi’s information that the Three Realms Battlefield was about to open.
• Nie Yun learned that Gu Yong and the others planned to stay in Three Realms City and keep studying the Great Dao Reliefs, so he and Duan Yi set off without them.
• Nie Yun and Duan Yi reached the crowded battlefield entrance, where Duan Yi stopped Nie Yun and explained that positions had to be bought.

Nie Yun learned that passage talismans granted access to early positions in the Three Realms Battlefield and joined an auction for the last available one. He bid six thousand high-grade Origin Energy Great Dao Talismans, but the Qianxue Emperor arrived just as the sale seemed decided.

• Duan Yi explained that Three Realms City sold passage talismans for positions behind spatial barriers, and Nie Yun followed him to the city’s ship.
• Nie Yun learned that Wang Zijie, the Three Realms City Lord’s chief disciple, was auctioning the passage talisman for the third position.
• Nie Yun judged Wang Zijie to be as strong as himself, with a soul that might have reached the Ruler level.
• Wang Zijie opened the auction at three thousand high-grade Origin Energy Great Dao Talismans, and the bids climbed to 3,750.
• Nie Yun bid four thousand, then raised the price to five thousand and six thousand, causing his last competitor to concede.
• As Wang Zijie’s subordinate prepared to award Nie Yun the talisman, the Qianxue Emperor arrived with a group of figures.

Nie Yun outbid the Qianxue Emperor for a passage talisman, paying five hundred thousand Origin Energy Great Dao Talismans and humiliating his rival. After Wang Zijie confirmed the payment and explained that the talisman admitted up to twenty people, Nie Yun left with Duan Yi, saying only the two of them would use it.

• The Qianxue Emperor arrived at the auction and bid ten thousand for the passage talisman, prompting Duan Yi to warn Nie Yun against competing with the wealthy ruler.
• Nie Yun called the Qianxue Emperor poor and bid one hundred thousand, then raised his offer to five hundred thousand after the Emperor countered with one hundred fifty thousand.
• The Qianxue Emperor accused Nie Yun of making a false bid, and his Half-step Ruler attendant demanded an inspection; Nie Yun killed the attendant with a blast of soul force.
• The Qianxue Emperor attacked Nie Yun, but Wang Zijie kicked him off the ancient ship and stopped the confrontation.
• Nie Yun produced five hundred thousand Origin Energy Great Dao Talismans, and Wang Zijie verified the amount before giving him the passage talisman.
• Wang Zijie explained that the passage talisman admitted up to twenty people, and Nie Yun departed with Duan Yi, saying they would be the only two to use it.
