Xu Taiping entered the Qingyao Jade Mansion and shut himself inside the Dragon-Trapping Tower to endure the Blight Pearl’s assault on his divine soul. He used the Furnace Dao Body to refine hundreds of immortal remains, leaving him to rely on their dao essence to resist the pain little by little.
While Xu Taiping struggled to strengthen his Dao Essence Power against Blightbone Power, Xiahou You and Qu Chao Ci prepared to defend the group and protect him. Xu Taiping endured the furnace flames and decided to use them to temper his original body.
Qu Chao Ci and Xiahou You watched the Qingyao Jade Mansion’s formation nodes being activated as a powerful cultivator fought the Jade Maiden and Golden Boy Blightbones nearby. After the cultivator’s golden Sword Light shattered and Blightbones swarmed a beautiful woman, another enormous Sword Shadow appeared above the Yangling Fire Mansion and struck the ground.
Lin Buyu used Azure Profound Sect sword arts to hold off the Blightbones and helped Qu Chao Ci and Xiahou You defend the bridge to the Qingyao Jade Mansion. She revealed that she was a disciple of the True Martial Heaven Azure Profound Sect and was helping for the sake of her senior brother.
Lin Buyu, Qu Chao Ci, and Xiahou You fought waves of blightbones at the Stone Bridge while Xu Taiping recovered. Despite the women’s powerful attacks and Xiahou You’s armored strength, the growing assault left Qu Chao Ci wondering how they could keep fighting.
Xiahou You and Qu Chao Ci fought together to defend the Stone Bridge from waves of Blightbones, with Qu Chao Ci unleashing a devastating sword technique when they were nearly overwhelmed. They remained exhausted but committed to holding the bridge until Qingzhu and the others activated the final formation node, as more Blightbones arrived.
Xiahou You and Qu Chao Ci held the Stone Bridge against waves of Blightbones while Mo Qingzhu opened the Outer Court’s formation nodes. After learning they could withdraw, they chose to lure the remaining Blightbones onto the bridge and try to kill them before they reached Qingyao Jade Mansion.
Xiahou You and Qu Chao Ci destroyed the Blightbones on the Stone Bridge and set up a formation to delay the rest before returning to the Qingyao Jade Mansion's Inner Court. They learned that Green Bamboo Daoist Priest had found only one of the remaining formation nodes, and the chapter ended as rumbling suggested the Blightbones had already broken through Xiahou You's barrier.
Xiahou You and Qu Chao Ci saw over a hundred Blightbones break through the Stone Bridge’s formation and learned the Heavenly Thunder Nine Palaces Evil-Subduing Formation could be used offensively. Xiahou You and Bai Yue prepared to draw on the formation’s power to hold off the Blightbones while Qu Chao Ci returned to help Mo Qingzhu activate the remaining nodes.
Xiahou You and Bai Yue fought waves of Blightbones outside Qingyao Jade Mansion, relying on the Grand Formation's thunder to destroy them. As two formation nodes remained, Lin Buyu warned them that two Jade Maiden Golden Boy Blightbones had escaped and ordered them back inside the formation.
Xiahou You and Bai Yue were overwhelmed by the Jade Maiden and Golden Boy Blightbones as they tried to escape to the inner court. Lin Buyu broke the Jade Maiden’s hold and told them that Senior Brother had awakened.
As the Blightbones battered the failing Heavenly Thunder Nine-Palace Magic Formation, Xiahou You prepared to leave and hold them off. Xu Taiping’s aura surged from the Dragon-Trapping Tower, and he told Xiahou You and Bai Yue to stay inside and leave everything to him.
Xu Taiping completed the Tai Bai Eclipse Power and used it to restore himself as the inner court’s defenses collapsed. He emerged from the Dragon-Trapping Tower just as Xiahou You and Bai Yue faced the invading Blightbones, and told them he would take over.
Xu Taiping used his newly strengthened body and blade to fight the Jade Maiden and Golden Child Blightbones while Bai Yue and Xiahou You watched from the Dragon-Trapping Tower. After testing his strength against them, he unleashed the terrifying Tai Bai Eclipse Power, leaving even himself stunned.
Xu Taiping used tai bai eclipse power to unleash a devastating Heavenly Wrath Style attack, killing the Golden Child and Jade Maiden Blightbones and many others. He discovered that the power restored his strength only temporarily and that his single droplet had enough for just three strikes.
Xu Taiping reunited briefly with Lin Buyu during a battle in the sacred land, and they reaffirmed their promise to meet at the Chaotic Stars Assembly. Lin Buyu was forced to leave after an elder threatened Xu Taiping, while Xu Taiping resolved to grow strong enough to help her and his other loved ones.
After returning to Qingyao Jade Mansion, Xu Taiping received Azure Void Fruits discovered by Qu Chao Ci and ate two of them to restore his strength and test their effect on his lifespan. The Heaven-Flipping Seal began to react, and Xu Taiping prepared to check how much longer he would live.
Xu Taiping learned that Azure Void Fruits could restore only a limited amount of his lifespan, then received the Ancient Heavenly Venerable’s guidance about a hidden ancient mirror in the Yangling Fire Mansion. The mirror contained Star Lords’ Immortal Remains, and Xu Taiping prepared to seek it out and learn how to command them.
Xu Taiping prepared to enter the Yangling Fire Mansion to find the Red Sun Fruit for his old affliction and a treasure in the Cloud Pill Palace. The Ancient Heavenly Venerable gave him mirror-refining guidance and divine intent, while Qu Chao Ci and Bai Yue joined the expedition to seek resources and possible true-fire seeds.
Xu Taiping, Bai Yue, and Mo Qingzhu reached the Cloud Pill Palace, where an untainted Immortal Remains Daoist welcomed them. As Blightbone corruption spread through the Yangling Fire Mansion, the Daoist revealed that he had awaited the three for a million years because the Jade Mother had foretold their arrival.
Xu Taiping and his companions entered Cloud Pill Palace’s Pill Fire Hall after learning that the Queen Mother had foretold their arrival and that Taiyi Star Lord could activate a formation to purge the evil qi. Xu Taiping followed a hidden thread to an abandoned Pill Furnace and lifted its lid, asking what he sought to reveal itself.
Xu Taiping revealed an ancient mirror that held Taiyi Star Lord and other immortal remains, confirming that the Jade Mother had foreseen the present calamity. As Blightbone forces breached Cloud Pill Palace, Bai Yue and Mo Qingzhu went to help defend it while Xu Taiping began refining the mirror to summon Taiyi Star Lord.
Mo Qingzhu and Bai Yue fought waves of Divine General Blightbones in Cloud Pill Palace, with Bai Yue unleashing the Pagoda Iron Armor Xiahou You had given him. Their fight took a dangerous turn when two enormous Jade Maiden and Golden Child Blightbones appeared and struck them down.
Bai Yue and Mo Qingzhu fought the Golden Child Blightbone while the Jade Maiden Blightbone pressed them with mountain spirit power. The old Daoist Immortal Remains shielded them with Golden Bells and asked them to stall the Blightbones, and Mo Qingzhu’s formation let them evade a devastating sword strike as Bai Yue gathered power for another attack.
Bai Yue and Mo Qingzhu fought Golden Boy and Jade Girl Blightbone until the Immortal Remains Old Daoist intervened and destroyed them. Before they could recover, another Supreme Venerable Xuanwei appeared, shattered the old Daoist’s body, and threatened to kill them.
