• The Great Void elder reprimanded Zhang Xiaoyu and warned him not to touch the Seven Great Sects, but the incident set off a chain reaction.

After the Blood Demon Sect destroyed Linghua Temple, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect debated retaliation but backed down when Taixu refused to support it. Lin Feng and Zhang Xiaoyu concluded their enemies were all bluster and planned to return to Taixu to mine.

• The Blood Demon Sect’s Demon Lord approved Rain Demon’s destruction of Linghua Temple, while the victory boosted Lin Feng and Zhang Xiaoyu’s prestige among the sect’s disciples.

• The Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect blamed the Blood Demon Sect for civilian deaths near Linghua Temple after secretly killing civilians themselves, but the Blood Demon Sect gained prestige instead of defending its reputation.
• Lin Feng converted Demon Crystals into Breakthrough Points, upgraded his subordinates, and asked Ma Xingyuan to recruit independent cultivators with Lu Cangsheng and Yi Qingfeng.

• Lin Feng saw the sword fighting through a horde of Low-level Demons and exclaimed in alarm at what he noticed.

Lin Feng discovered that the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword had awakened, gained a status panel, and refused to obey him. After it tried to kill him and threatened his loved ones, Lin Feng examined its apparent invulnerability and found a possible way to deal with it by studying its panel.

• Lin Feng found the awakened Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword would not return to him and struggled against it with Mental Power.
• Lin Feng stopped the sword from hunting demons and forced it to follow him away from the demon grounds.

• Lin Feng tested the sword with Outer-Heaven Meteorite Iron and corrosive liquid, but neither damaged it.
• Lin Feng checked the sword's status panel and came up with an idea for dealing with it.

Lin Feng drained the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword until its soul fell dormant, then entered the sword’s Sea of Consciousness to take control. After defeating and shattering the hostile soul, he let its strange soul power merge into his own, hoping to control the sword without destroying it.

• Lin Feng used his Mental Power and Breakthrough Points to drain the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword’s Life attribute to one, leaving it motionless.
• Lin Feng entered the sword’s Sea of Consciousness and tried to possess its sleeping soul, but the demon sword’s soul attacked him and sealed the way out.
• Lin Feng fought back with the Earth's Favor Divine Light, which damaged the demon sword’s soul and turned the battle in his favor.
• The demon sword’s soul begged Lin Feng for mercy and warned that killing it could ruin the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword, but Lin Feng shattered it anyway.
• Lin Feng found that the sword was still beyond his control, then withdrew the Earth's Favor Divine Light and allowed the soul’s red fragments to merge into his own.

After Lin Feng’s soul fused with the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword, he tested his new control over it while hunting demons, then rested in Qingshi City and considered expanding his influence in Taixu. By noon on the third day, he reached the rocky mountain where Dai Yin had hidden the demon crystals and opened the secret chamber.

• Lin Feng used the fog and his Mental Power to kill twelve martial artists, then killed most of the remaining group with the Demon Spirit Blood Drinking Sword and raised his vitality to 940,000.
• Lin Feng found that the stone forest disoriented travelers and that a demon had dragged away the corpses, so he flew above the fog to escape.

• Lin Feng took Zhang Xiaoyu deeper into the mine, where Zhang Xiaoyu asked why he was acting so mysteriously.

• Lin Feng froze upon entering the man's Sea of Consciousness.
