Lu Feng fought thousands of Witch Clan members without his usual treasures and was struck down, but Xiang Jiu intervened to challenge Meng Huai for the Warrior Title.

• Lu Feng drove his cultivation techniques harder in an effort to overcome White Barbarian, but their deadlock continued until a demon howl sounded and a mass of black material enveloped him.

• Lu Feng endured another two days of repeated injury and recovery until he could squat.
• When the High Priest approached, Lu Feng gathered his strength and finally stood upright.

Lu Feng completed the first trial, but the High Priest immediately subjected him to a far more brutal trial of fire. The Scruffy Old Man left Witch Island, resolved to let Lu Feng face the trials alone for three years while investigating the High Priest’s origins.

• Lu Feng noticed Meng Jiu's speed had increased while his strength had not, and suspected the Witch Clan disciple was using a body-damaging Secret Art.
• Meng Jiu overwhelmed Lu Feng with relentless attacks, and after several days Lu Feng realized his mind could track the blows but his body could not react quickly enough.

• The High Priest appeared beside Lu Feng with a Witch Clan woman who had previously attacked him with Liu Yingyi at the Island King Whale.

• Liu Ying used the Weakness Spell to seal Lu Feng's strength, then cast Petrification Spell, but his Withered Wood Rejuvenation Cultivation Technique overcame both effects.

Lu Feng agreed to learn the High Priest’s witchcraft in exchange for being allowed to leave, and the High Priest used a strange power to imprint two techniques in his mind. The High Priest then taught him the Six Souls Banner, leaving Lu Feng with another sinister method but no materials to prove he could make it.

• Lu Feng rejected the High Priest's treasure-refining methods and the Destruction Gu Mosquito technique as impractical.
• The High Priest taught Lu Feng the Ten Absolute Arrays and offered him a chance to leave if he could establish the formation.

• The High Priest sent phantoms to attack Lu Feng's mind, and Lu Feng learned to destroy them with the Spiritual Resonance Sword.

• Lu Feng blocked Xiang Jiu’s halberd with the Sword Scabbard, suffered severe injuries, then grabbed the halberd as his clones reached Xiang Jiu.

• Xiang Jiu turned to fight, and Lu Feng used another full-strength Five Qi Dragon Soldiers strike before Xiang Jiu narrowly dodged it.
• Xiang Jiu laughed that it was his turn, having recovered enough speed to fight instead of flee.

Lu Feng escaped the High Priest’s gravity-controlled training space and discovered that the pressure had been suppressing his true strength and cultivation.

• Lu Feng emerged from the vortex into a vast battlefield where the Monster Tribe fought armies of bizarre creatures, then was swept back into the vortex by the turbulent energy.
• Lu Feng discovered that the High Priest had returned the Five Directional Banners to his inner storage space and used the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner to resist the vortex.
• Lu Feng chose to travel underwater up the red river to avoid the fighting, and all five banners united to shield him from the river's sinister power.
