• Tang Yan appealed to Mo Jianming to join Reach the Summit in punishing Mingyou Valley, offering five Xiantian martial artists and a hundred high-grade Heaven Tier martial artists.

• Tang Yan used the Heaven-Earth Creation Cauldron to absorb the Yin Nether Qi, advancing to Xiantian Ninth Grade and retrieving a black Token from the spring.

• Tang Yan proposed disguising the Mo Lineage’s elites as Reach the Summit members and secretly sending them out of the city while Mingyou Valley believed the Mo leaders were in seclusion.

Tang Yan returned to Reach the Summit, checked on Zi Yun, and bought a large batch of troubled spirit herbs from Yu Sance and Wang Zilian. After preparing for several days, he received the arrival of a dark-robed elder, signaling that it was time to set out with the Mo Lineage.

• Tang Yan returned to Reach the Summit and learned that Du Shu was away while Zi Yun had advanced to late-stage first-grade Xiantian.

Mingyou Valley planned to exploit the Mo Lineage’s injuries and crush Reach the Summit, while Tang Yan’s march drew attention from allies and observers across the realms.

• Tang Yan spared the children who chose candy and killed the sixteen who chose weapons with a saber.

After destroying Mingyou Valley, Tang Yan defended his slaughter of its young descendants and secretly ordered the Mo Lineage to track down the three he spared.

• Mo Lianshan rejected the proposed resource split, arguing that the Mo Lineage’s contribution and Mingyou Valley’s Dao Comprehension Cliff justified giving Reach the Summit no wealth.
• Tang Yan warned that the Mo Lineage would not receive even seventy percent if it reneged on their agreement, and demanded to know whether it would accept his division.

Tang Yan gained the support of the Artifact Pavilion, Fengyun Clan, Star-Gazing Pavilion, and Su Family after Mo Lianshan challenged his share of Mingyou Valley’s spoils.

• Tang Yan practiced the Five Elements Tyrant Body Art during the journey, consuming resources while making only slight progress.
• Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong arrived at Profound Azure Ravine, disguised themselves, and followed the Spirit Flame Compass through thick mist.

• The Spirit Flame Compass pointed northwest, leading Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong into a narrow, dim gorge.
• Vines grabbed Tang Yan's ankles; he severed them with the Moonshadow Sword, and Zhu Jingkong destroyed two more vines with talismans.

Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong fought their way through a gorge of concealed, poisonous vines, which Tang Yan collected for their medicinal value. Beyond the gorge, Tang Yan recognized and broke free of a spring-born illusion, then followed the compass with Zhu Jingkong to a cave high on a cliff.

• Tang Yan used his Heart of Taiji to detect the hidden vines, gave Zhu Jingkong an Antidote Pill, and began pulling out and collecting the vines as they advanced.
• After the vines retreated into the rock walls, Tang Yan insisted that he and Zhu Jingkong keep clearing them for three days until they reached the gorge's exit.
• Tang Yan dispersed the mist with the Divine Thunder Demon-Slaying Formation, and he and Zhu Jingkong followed the Spirit Flame Compass upstream.

• Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong followed the compass to a cave high above them in a cliff, where spring water flowed out.

Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong fought their way through a swarm of mutated Nether Mountain Rats guarding Nurturing Nether. After breaking the rats’ formation and defeating them, they stood before the still-flickering Spirit Flame.

• Tang Yan and Zhu Jingkong entered the cave and found Nurturing Nether guarded by countless sixth-tier Nether Mountain Rats.

• Zhu Jingkong tried to restrain Nurturing Nether, but its violent soul power trapped him until Tang Yan severed their connection and saved him.

Tang Yan helped Zhu Jingkong break through to Lord Rank, but Medicine Valley confronted them over the Nurturing Nether Spirit Flame. Zhu Jingkong revealed his identity and fought Wei Jianqing’s forces while entrusting Tang Yan with the Spirit Shaman Clan’s future.

• Tang Yan used Nurturing Nether to help Zhu Jingkong reach Lord Rank, where Zhu Jingkong’s natal divinity formed as the Divine Phoenix Brush.

• When Wei Jianqing began counting, two Medicine Valley fighters died suddenly, and Zhu Jingkong blocked the group’s attacks with talismans while sending his authority token to Tang Yan.

• Tang Yan entered the battlefield at Profound Azure Ravine and saw two Zhu Jingkongs fighting Medicine Valley’s forces.
• Zhu Jingkong’s figures evaded Wei Jianqing’s attack while three more King Rank martial artists fell, and Zhu Jingkong vowed to kill Wei Jianqing after finishing them.

Tang Yan rescued Zhu Jingkong from Wei Jianqing after Zhu sacrificed himself to kill Medicine Valley’s King Rank martial artists. As they escaped, Zhu pledged the Spirit Shaman Clan’s eternal loyalty to Tang Yan.

• Tang Yan advised Zhu Jingkong to move the Spirit Shaman Clan to Reach the Summit, and Zhu Jingkong gratefully accepted his help.

Tang Yan helped Zhu Jingkong evacuate the Spirit Shaman Clan and rigged Black Crow Cliff with explosives and talismans to punish Medicine Valley if they attacked the statue.
