His defiance won support from six Sitting Elders, while Ren Ye and the others remained inside the tomb, unaware of the time he had bought them.

• Sun Michen accused Qian Mei of helping No. 79 escape, and Qian Zhongge erupted in curses and vowed that the Qian Family would never surrender its Dragon Key.
• Six Sitting Elders sided with Qian Zhongge, while Ren Ye and the others inside the Divine Tomb remained unaware that the dispute had bought them time as the Storyteller prepared to enter the Undying Hall.

Sun Michen and Zhao Han seized control of the Clan Hall and arranged to surround Divine Tomb Mountain to capture the Huang Family Aunt and Nephew. Inside the tomb, the Storyteller entered the Undying Hall to search for the Origin Eyes and the missing divine object, then summoned a golden square object that released Human Destiny.

• Qian Zhongge refused to surrender the Qian Family's Dragon Key, while six presiding elders joined him in opposing the opening of the Divine Tomb.

• The Storyteller resisted the hall's devouring mist and whispers, then summoned a golden square divine object that released purple-and-gold Human Destiny around him.

The Storyteller ventured deep into the Undying Hall, found the great dao intent he sought, and encountered a mysterious soul that called itself Emperor Venerable. After the Storyteller confirmed that Ren Ye’s Origin Eyes were being nourished by the tomb’s devouring power but remained unfound, Ren Ye received a sudden Heavenly Dao warning that his Behavioral Compatibility Value had dropped to 67.

• The Storyteller used the destiny stored in his square magic treasure to cross the gray mist and locate the great dao intent containing the origin power he sought.
• A soul silhouette within the great dao intent resisted the Storyteller, warned that his rootless destiny would soon run out, and identified itself as Emperor Venerable before he fled.
• The Storyteller returned to Ren Ye, Little Aunt, and Li Xiaopang without finding Ren Ye’s Origin Eyes or Li Xiaopang’s divine object, but confirmed the Origin Eyes still existed and were difficult for outsiders to refine.
• The Storyteller explained that the gray mist contained a vibrant aura resembling Ren Ye’s, suggesting that someone was nourishing the Origin Eyes with the tomb’s devouring power.
• Ren Ye considered how the Origin Eyes could be hidden and nourished in the Divine Tomb, but could not determine where they were.
• The Heavenly Dao told Ren Ye that his behavior did not match Huang Qi’s, reducing his Behavioral Compatibility Value by 20 points to 67; Ren Ye protested that he had done nothing.

Ren Ye realized the compatibility deductions might be tied to the blind man’s hidden actions in the tomb, then used clues about his nightly recovery and Little Aunt’s work to identify her as the one who had taken the Origin Eyes and secretly devoured corpses. Little Aunt’s reaction left the truth—and the danger facing Ren Ye—exposed.

• Ren Ye analyzed earlier compatibility changes and concluded that his ordinary behavior might conflict with something abnormal the blind man had done in the tomb.
• After the medicinal scent from Little Aunt’s porridge briefly reached him, Ren Ye suffered another twenty-point deduction, leaving his Behavioral Compatibility Value at 47.
• Ren Ye told the Storyteller he had found a possible truth and asked him to help test it.
• Ren Ye confronted Little Aunt in the Azure Palace, suggesting Zhao Mi had arrived too late to find the Origin Eyes because someone else had already taken them.
• Ren Ye cited Little Aunt’s nightly cooking, her resistance to changing jobs, and the nighttime hours of her Pill Academy work as evidence that she had secretly entered the tomb to steal the Origin Eyes and devour corpses.
• Little Aunt laughed brightly and licked her lips after Ren Ye accused her.

Ren Ye exposed Tian Wei as the one who stole his Origin Eyes and used the Gray Mist to devour living sacrifices, and she admitted she had been waiting to consume the clan chiefs and their followers. As the Storyteller attacked and Tian Wei unleashed the Undying Hall’s Gray Mist, Ren Ye struggled to face his aunt until her contemptuous words stirred him from his despair.

• Ren Ye laid out the clues implicating Tian Wei, including her night visits to the Death-Sacrifice Ground, the lingering medicinal fragrance, and her ability to locate the Divine Tomb without a Guiding Talisman.
• Tian Wei stopped denying the truth, revealed that she had been waiting for the other clans to enter the tomb, and unleashed Gray Mist to take Ren Ye toward the Undying Hall.
• The Storyteller arrived and attacked Tian Wei, but she drew more Gray Mist from the Undying Hall to fight him.
• The Storyteller urged Ren Ye to kill Tian Wei before the Gray Mist engulfed the Hanging Coffin Grounds, while Ren Ye stood paralyzed by grief over their family bond.
• Tian Wei condemned Ren Ye as weak and unworthy of the Huang Family’s inheritance, and her words broke through his anguished hesitation.

Ren Ye overcame his immersion in Blind Huang’s memories and used the Storyteller’s Great Dao sword ray to strike Little Aunt Tian Wei, whose gray mist then showed him the truth behind her plans for his inheritance. As Tian Wei said goodbye and returned his eyes, Ren Ye opened them to see the warmth she had promised him.

• Ren Ye broke free of his imposed memories and took the Great Dao sword ray while Tian Wei drove the Undying Hall’s gray mist toward the Azure Palace.
• The Storyteller used the square Magic Treasure to pin Tian Wei in place, and Ren Ye stabbed her with the sword ray.
• As Tian Wei’s gray mist entered Ren Ye, he saw her past: she had arranged for Little One to inherit the Three Thousand Secret Treasures while she took the Delusion Eyes to protect and test him.
• Ren Ye learned that Tian Wei had planned for him to endure hardship and eventually kill her, and that she had been preparing to awaken alongside him in the future.
• Tian Wei told Ren Ye she had raised him, promised that he would first see warm light when he opened his eyes, and said goodbye before the gray mist solidified within him.
• Ren Ye opened his eyes as tears streamed down his face.

Ren Ye mourned Tian Wei Little Aunt, then received the Heavenly Dao’s reward and entered the Undying Hall to claim the human world’s final wisp of Chaos Origin Qi. As he touched the strange aura deep inside, the star river and Divine Tomb Immortal Palace began to shake, while several hundred experts surrounded the palace outside.

• Ren Ye caught Tian Wei Little Aunt as she died after returning his Origin Eyes, then carried her to the rear hall and laid her in her jade coffin.
• The Storyteller restored Little Aunt’s youthful appearance with a drop of divine liquid, and Ren Ye bid her farewell with three ceremonial kowtows.
• The Heavenly Dao announced that Ren Ye had recovered his memories, triggered the final story, and earned entry to the Undying Hall to retrieve Chaos Origin Qi.
• Ren Ye persuaded Li Xiaopang and the Storyteller to accompany him; the Undying Hall’s gray mist parted around him, allowing all three to enter safely.
• Deep in the hall, the Storyteller warned Li Xiaopang not to respond to an eerie old man, while Ren Ye sensed the Chaos Origin Qi and reached for it.
• As Ren Ye touched the aura, the star river flickered and the Divine Tomb Immortal Palace trembled, while hundreds of experts surrounded it outside.

Ren Ye obtained Chaos Origin Qi and the Three Devouring Immortal Lights in the Undying Hall, then helped Li Xiaopang survive as a Great Dao treasure chose him. The treasure revealed itself as the Void: the Infinite Mirror, while Zhao Haochen prepared outside the tomb for Ren Ye’s emergence.

• Ren Ye absorbed Chaos Origin Qi into his dantian and received the Three Devouring Immortal Lights, which could only be used within Delusion Village’s Heavenly Grace-level Secret Realm.
• The Storyteller said the qi he sought was not meant for him, and Ren Ye offered to help him find what he was looking for.
• Li Xiaopang spotted black divine radiance in the Undying Hall and pleaded with it to leave the tomb and save Second Uncle.
• The black light chose Li Xiaopang as its master and flooded him with void power, tearing at his body and divine soul.
• Ren Ye drew gray mist into Li Xiaopang to nourish him, allowing him to withstand the void power as the treasure revealed itself as the Void: the Infinite Mirror.
• Outside the Divine Tomb Immortal Palace, Zhao Haochen told Little Sister Qingxue to leave the tomb and have their families watch the Li and Qian Families for Ren Ye’s exit.

Li Xiaopang found resolve to seek the void Dao and save Second Uncle, but the returning gray mist trapped him, Ren Ye, and the Storyteller inside the Immortal Palace. Their signal reached Delusion Village as Sun Michen prepared to seize the tomb, while Li Taishan and the Li Family quietly readied their response.

• The Storyteller persuaded Li Xiaopang to turn his grief into a goal of mastering the void Dao, and Ren Ye and Li Xiaopang joked with him as they left the Undying Hall.
• The gray mist returned and swept through the Immortal Palace, forcing Ren Ye, Li Xiaopang, and the Storyteller to flee toward the Hanging Coffin Grounds; Ren Ye warned that it would soon consume them.
• The Storyteller used Li Xiaopang's Void Infinite Mirror to send three bursts of void power above Delusion Village, then collapsed to recover while Ren Ye and Li Xiaopang prepared for a fight.
• Sun Michen interpreted the void signal as proof that Blind Huang had found the origin eyes and planned to wait outside the tomb, while ordering Sun Qingxue to secure Li Taishan's token and prepare the Sun Family.
• Sun Qingxue visited Li Taishan in the Dragon Key Arena, and he gave her a packet of medicinal powder as a token; afterward, Li Taishan began singing as Grandson Fusheng delivered the Li Family's call to arms to the clan elders.
• Qin Yanting and Sixth Grandpa discussed the Road of Return and the sound of nighttime reading as events in Delusion Village continued to gather momentum.
