Yun Baojian spent his days following the Azure-Robed Man around Myriad Lotus Heaven until a sudden sword strike sent him crashing into the lotus pool.

Yun Qing used Azure Jade to counter Luo Qinglian’s sword strike, after which Luo Qinglian revealed himself as the Azure Lotus Sword Master and offered to teach Yun Qing swordsmanship. The Yun Clan prepared to visit the sect’s source of the Thirty-Three Heavens, while Yun Baojian’s embarrassing attempt to stop the strike was secretly recorded.

• Luo Qinglian praised Yun Qing’s sword strike and urged him to cultivate the sword, but Yun Qing initially declined because his Great Dao was already set.
• Luo Qinglian offered to teach Yun Qing swordsmanship, and Yun Qing accepted the opportunity.

• Celestial steps, bridges, clouds, and ten thousand palaces emerged beyond the Heavenly Gate, startling Yun Baojian.

Yun Qing completed his Dao domain by merging the sword domain into it, then sparred with Yun Baojian under Luo Qinglian’s guidance.

Yun Qing and Yun Baojian left Myriad Lotus Heaven after meeting Luo Qinglian, then told Yun Lan that the Azure Lotus Sword Master was a manifested origin of the Thirty-Three Heavens. Yun Lan mistook the revelation as a threat to his marriage and began sending gifts to his wife, leaving the alliance between the Yun Clan and the Azure Lotus Sword Sect seemingly safe for now.

• Yun Qing left the Yun Clan and found Yun Huang enjoying music and dancing from Yun Ge, Yun Pengxing, and Yun Hua in Heaven Beyond Heaven.

• Yun Hua hurried off with Yun Ge and Yun Pengxing toward the Grand Music Bureau, while Yun Qing watched them go and turned back to Yun Huang.

Yun Qing showed Yun Huang his evolving Dao Domain and asked him to name it, while the two brothers also discussed Yun Huang’s plans for Luo Qinglian. The chapter ended with Yun Huang demanding that Yun Qing be quiet for three breaths before Yun Qing immediately asked for a name again.

• Yun Huang ordered Yun Qing to be quiet for three breaths, but Yun Qing resumed asking for a name as soon as the time was up.

Yun Huang named Yun Qing’s chaos Dao realm Primordial Soaring Firmament, then dumped the task of returning Luo Qinglian to the Thirty-Three Heavens on him and vanished. Yun Qing delayed that problem and went to inspect the Yun Clan’s work rebuilding the ruined Nine Heavens, where he saw how much restoration remained.

Yun Qing toured the Nine Heavens’ reconstruction with Yun Guihe and unexpectedly helped the Formation Masters reconnect a cloud vein using the Immortal Court Seal.

• Yun Qing reunited with the recovered Yun Guihe, who volunteered to help restore the Nine Heavens with his spatial-formation expertise.
• Yun Qing inspected the reconstruction, used the Immortal Court Seal to fix a cloud vein’s law coordinates, and left the seal with the Yun Clan’s Formation Masters.
• Yun Qing and Yun Guihe reached the ruined Grand Firmament Palace and saw spirit beasts return as spiritual energy gathered.
• Yun Guihe detected a faint gray-black aura and warned Yun Qing that the cloud deer were no ordinary spirit beasts.
• Yun Qing used his Double Pupils to see black-and-red threads and a blood-colored growth inside a deer, confirming Yun Guihe’s suspicion of an Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

Yun Qing discovered that a cloud deer carried a faint trace of kanming heavenly burial and suspected the herd was spreading demonic seeds. He and Yun Guihe followed it to the edge of the heaven, where Yun Shuanghua and Yun Zui were in danger, and rushed to reach them.

• Yun Qing spotted fetal movement inside a cloud deer and identified it as contamination from kanming heavenly burial.

Yun Zui and Yun Shuanghua explored the flower field in Cloud Firmament Heaven while Yun Zui complained that nearly everyone else was absent. After they discovered a white deer hiding in the void with an ominous presence, they fled, sensing that its danger had nothing to do with its cultivation.

• Yun Shuanghua tended a silver-purple flower growing in the desolate Wasteland of Cloud Firmament Heaven as Yun Zui teased him and explained that their relatives and friends were away or in seclusion.
• Yun Shuanghua reflected on how the Yun Clan had cared for him and how Yun Yuan had once asked Yun Qing to look after him.
• Yun Shuanghua and Yun Zui suddenly attacked a hidden figure with the Dragonblood Thornbush and Heaven-Burning Drunken Flame.
• The attack revealed a silent white deer with scarlet eyes and a faint ring of black markings in its pupils.
• Yun Zui seized Yun Shuanghua and they fled, recognizing that the deer posed a threat beyond its apparent strength.

Yun Zui and Yun Shuanghua encountered a white deer whose burned body regenerated with black-red flesh, then found themselves surrounded by a herd of corrupted demon beasts. They fought their way toward an escape route, but Yun Shuanghua noticed something wrong in the sky.

• Yun Zui sent up a distress signal, but no Yun Clan Elders responded because they had gone in the opposite direction to seek a treasure.

• Yun Zui burned the deer with the Heaven-Burning Drunken Flame, and Yun Shuanghua recovered enough to unleash his Dragonblood Thornbush vines against the horde.

Yun Zui, Yun Shuanghua, Ao Zhan, and Feng Jiuxiao fought off demonized beasts while learning how the contamination had spread and why it was difficult to trace. As a spatial rift opened and the group called for help, Yun Qing and Yun Guihe continued toward the flower fields, with Yun Qing worried about his friends.

• Feng Jiuxiao and Ao Zhan joined Yun Zui and Yun Shuanghua, and the four fought back the surrounding Demon Beasts.

• Yun Qing and Yun Guihe continued toward the flower fields, and Yun Qing killed a diving Blood-Feathered Giant Eagle with his spear and radiant sun divine flame.

Ao Zhan, Feng Jiuxiao, and Yun Shuanghua used the Dragon-Phoenix Secret Art to push back the beast tide, but Yun Shuanghua rushed from the defensive line to save the last flower in the ruined field. His act awakened the remnant soul of the Demon Flower Evil Lord, who offered him an inheritance and promised to eliminate the beasts.

Yun Zui tried to keep Yun Shuanghua from accepting the Demon Flower Evil Lord’s inheritance, while Yun Huang watched from the Thirty-Three Heavens. Just as Yun Shuanghua began to agree, Yun Qing broke through the demonic blockade and attacked the Demon Flower Evil Lord.

• Yun Huang saw the Demon Flower Evil Lord coaxing Yun Shuanghua toward his inheritance and reacted with disgust, making the remnant soul sense a threatening presence.
