Xiao Yu’s hidden blood-qi traps wounded Wutu Ba, but Wutu Ba fused his qi and blood with true essence and overpowered him. Xiao Yu defied Wutu Ba’s demand for submission, and Xu Taiping intervened as Wutu Ba continued beating him.
Xu Taiping stopped Wutu Ba from killing Xiao Yu by threatening to crush the black skull, forcing Wutu Ba to hand his victim over. As Xu Taiping saved Xiao Yu, Gu Qingcheng decided to follow him regardless of the consequences.
Xu Taiping provoked Wutu Ba into a fight while concealing his identity behind the name Helian Su, then struggled against Wutu Ba’s relentless attacks. He turned the fight around with a manifested fist that knocked Wutu Ba into the floor, leaving the spectators stunned by his mastery of blood qi manifestation.
Xu Taiping used Blood Qi Manifestation to overpower Wutu Ba until Wutu Ba revealed the Ultimate Realm of his Hundred Refinements Body Tempering Art and broke through Xu Taiping’s attacks. The chapter ended with Xu Taiping taking another palm strike and revealing that his body had turned bronze, astonishing Nanxing, Zhai Mo, and the others.
Xu Taiping used the Blood Qi Body Tempering Technique to fight Wutu Ba while concealing his identity, but Wutu Ba’s stronger physique and Cloud Silver Realm breakthrough left Xu badly wounded. Xu then advanced to the Cloud Silver Realm himself, surprising Gu Qingcheng and Gongshu Nanxing as he struck back against Wutu Ba.
Xu Taiping used his fight with Wutu Ba to refine his control of blood qi and body tempering, eventually surpassing Wutu Ba’s silver-hardened strength. As Wutu Ba pushed his tempering further, Xu Taiping prepared to test a technique that would use all of his qi and blood power.
Xu Taiping awakened his python flood dragon physique and mastered the Cloud Silver Realm’s Blood Qi Body Tempering Power during his battle with Wutu Ba. After counterattacking and knocking Wutu Ba down, he missed a finishing blow when Wutu Ba suddenly burned his blood to increase his power.
Xu Taiping broke through to the Golden Essence Realm during his fight with Wutu Ba, helping Helian Su win the challenge. As Xu Taiping prepared to leave Black Mountain, the Red Lion Ghost King exposed his identity and urged him to fight Great General Geshu outside the exit.
Xu Taiping considered the Red Lion Ghost King's offer to fight Goshu Miu, while Gu Qingcheng explained the risks and revealed that history inside the Mysterious Wasteland Tower repeatedly resets when the Northern Garrison Manor heir is killed. The chapter ended with Xu Taiping asking what happens to Otherworlders when time resets.
Xu Taiping agreed to fight Goshu Miu under the Red Lion Ghost King’s terms, hoping to protect Xuanyuan Xueluo and prevent another reset in the Mysterious Wasteland Tower. After securing a promise of help for his companions, he led the group out of the mountain, while the Tower Spirit announced a reward if he won.
Goshu Miu arrived at Black Wind Valley to claim his Life-bound Item and subdued the black hound guarding the entrance. When the blood mist cleared, Xu Taiping, still disguised as Helian Su, appeared with the surviving Helian Clan disciples and a group of refugees.
Xu Taiping, disguised as Helian Su, used the Red Lion Ghost King’s Beast-Trapping Power to cage the valley entrance and force Goshu Miu into a fight. Goshu Miu recognized that Xu Taiping was an Otherworlder and demanded his name before agreeing to battle.
Xu Taiping revealed himself as the Otherworlder Rusty Lion and fought Goshu Miu in the Beast Cage. After initially knocking Goshu Miu down, Xu Taiping was struck by Goshu Miu’s Golden Essence Physique and sent flying into the cage.
Fairy Lingyue and Ye Chensha watched Xu Taiping challenge Goshu Miu and learned that Goshu Miu could trap outside cultivators’ divine souls forever. After Goshu Miu battered Xu Taiping, Xu revealed a Golden Essence physique of his own, leaving Ye Chensha stunned.
Xu Taiping used his Golden Essence Realm-tempered arms and Great Sage Fist to break through Goshu Miu’s golden physique, only for Goshu Miu to reveal powerful martial techniques and speak as though possessed by other Martial Gods. As Xu Taiping struggled against Dugu Ye’s Thousand Palms Move Mountains, Gu Qingcheng told him that Dugu Ye was helping him.
Xu Taiping learned that Dugu Ye’s trapped Divine Soul was helping him, and he used the Raging Thunder Form to hold off the Thousand Mountains Palm. Dugu Ye pointed out flaws in Xu Taiping’s Great Sage Fist, leaving Xu Taiping hoping for guidance on how to improve it and fuse two versions of the art.
Xu Taiping asked Dugu Ye to identify flaws in his Great Sage Fist and adjusted his technique while fighting Goshu Miu. He shattered Goshu Miu’s eighteen palm shadows, proving the correction worked, and Gu Qingcheng recognized him as the person her eldest brother had asked her to find.
Xu Taiping fused the Mountain-Bearing Form with the Heaven-Supporting Form to withstand Goshu Miu’s increasingly powerful Thousand Mountains Palm Force. He transformed his Qi and Blood and True Essence into Gang Qi and formed a golden Bull Demon phantom, which faced Goshu Miu’s four merged palm shadows.
Xu Taiping used the Great Sage Fist’s Mountain-Bearing Form to withstand Goshu Miu’s attacks, but the unstable technique repeatedly collapsed. After Dugu Ye pointed out that Xu Taiping’s qi and blood outweighed his true essence, Xu Taiping adjusted their balance and shattered Goshu Miu’s palm shadows, leaving Ye Chensha wondering if he was mastering the fist technique during the match.
Goshu Miu drew on the sealed Martial God Cui Tiehuai’s power to reach the Purple Essence Physique and attack Xu Taiping with force that could penetrate Protective Gang Qi. After Cui Tiehuai warned him about the City-Crushing physique, Xu Taiping began fusing the Raging Thunder Forms from two fist manuals to find a way to fight back.
Xu Taiping fused the Raging Thunder Forms of two fist techniques and, under the Martial Gods’ guidance, corrected every flaw while fighting Goshu Miu’s crushing palm attack. His punches became seamless and powerful, leaving him able to break apart Palm Shadows with ease as the Martial Gods continued advising him.
Xu Taiping refined his Raging Thunder Form under the Martial Gods’ guidance, causing his punches to carry the awe of heaven and grow steadily more powerful. By the end, he had corrected every flaw, leaving the Martial Gods astonished by his flawless technique.
Xu Taiping used the Raging Thunder Form to repel Goshu Miu’s Thousand Palms Unite as One, revealing that he had mastered the Supreme-Grade Great Sage Fist. When Goshu Miu began burning his blood to strengthen his clone, Xu Taiping refused to retreat and continued attacking, asking the martial seniors sealed within the Ghost Eye to help him find flaws in his fist technique.
Xu Taiping discovered the flaw in his Raging Thunder Form and pushed it into the ultimate realm during his fight with Goshu Miu. As Goshu Miu launched a full-strength palm strike, Xu Taiping began transforming his physique, astonishing the onlookers.
Xu Taiping revealed his Dragon Whale Physique and defeated Goshu Miu with a barrage of powerful punches, but he could not free the Martial Gods trapped within him. As Goshu Miu neared death, Dugu Ye warned Xu Taiping that the Mysterious Wasteland Tower and Heaven were doomed and urged him to leave the tower and escape the Shangqing Realm.
