Lin Yun received the final deep-sea millennium fine iron needed for his planned divine cord and discussed the coming Void Sky Hall with Nangong Wan. Five years later, Han Li returned from his mortal-world tempering with golden thunder bamboo, and Lin Yun discovered how its leaves could be made into lightning talismans.
As the Void Sky Hall’s opening approached, Ling Yuling explained its trials to Lin Yun and Nangong Wan while Han Li joined an expedition to ancient ruins. Han Li survived an encounter with Profound Bone and broke through to the third turn of Core Formation, while Profound Bone fled after receiving a mysterious signal.
Han Li discovered that his brocade handkerchief pointed toward something valuable, while Lin Yun and Nangong Wan prepared to enter the newly opened Void Sky Hall. After lending Ling Yuling the Wind-Thunder Wings for protection, Lin Yun and Nangong Wan left Tianxing City in disguises and vanished into the hall.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan entered the Void Sky Hall and joined the cultivators gathering there, where Lin Yun recognized Han Li and several other figures. As more cultivators arrived, Wu greeted Elder Qingyi and Madam Wen.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan waited in the Void Sky Hall as powerful cultivators arrived and the factions clashed. After Man Huzi humiliated Han Li by taking his jade pillar, the Star Palace Enforcement Elders announced the entry rules, and the hall sealed as the Void Sky Hall officially opened.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan traveled through the Ghost Grievance Grounds after the Teleportation Array brought them to the same destination. They reached a garden where the other cultivators were waiting, and Nangong Wan chose to sit with Madam Wen.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan waited in the garden for the Teleportation Array to the Void Sky Hall’s next trial, while Han Li eventually arrived with Zi Ling and Yuan Yao. After the array opened, Lin Yun and Nangong Wan entered the herb-gathering area, where Nangong Wan arranged to search with Madam Wen and parted ways with him.
Lin Yun followed Han Li and Profound Bone to the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, then captured its rabbit incarnation before Han Li could. He forced Profound Bone to surrender the ginseng’s true body and flew away, leaving Han Li puzzled by his apparent familiarity.
Han Li recognized Lin Yun as a Nascent Soul cultivator and was left to deal with Profound Bone and Extreme Yin after Lin Yun departed with the Nine-Curve Spirit Ginseng. Lin Yun reached the Ice and Fire Path with Nangong Wan, while Han Li arrived there as Extreme Yin’s new disciple.
Lin Yun entered the Mystic Crystal Path, searched for profound ice, and fought Ice Beasts before reaching the Blood Ice Forest. There he encountered Elder Qingyi, who introduced himself as Qing Yizi of South Crane Island.
Lin Yun crossed the altered Ice and Fire Path, reunited with Nangong Wan and Han Li at the stone hall, and entered the Scripture Repository after the trials ended. There, he discovered that the repository contained overlapping spatial layers and began studying how they worked.
Lin Yun passed the Supreme Wonder Illusion and emerged from the Teleportation Array with Nangong Wan as the cultivators gathered outside the Inner Hall. After agreeing to accompany the demonic cultivators partway, he waited as the Inner Hall doors opened and the others prepared to enter.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan entered the Inner Hall with the Righteous and Demonic Path cultivators, while Lin Yun secretly reassured Han Li and protected him. The party traversed the maze and reached the second floor, where Elder Qingyi suspected Wan Tianming’s group was testing the Star Palace elders ahead of them.
Lin Yun and Nangong Wan secretly reached the fifth floor and found the Void Sky Cauldron on the Cold Li Terrace. As they prepared to retrieve it, Wan Tianming and his companions arrived and began pulling it from the altar with Golden Silk Silkworms.
Man Huzi and Wan Tianming’s factions fought over the Void Sky Cauldron as it began releasing treasures. Lin Yun waited with Nangong Wan for a chance to act, while Man Huzi seized a jade pendant and drove Wan Tianming back with a Level Eight Spell Pellet.
The Star Palace Elders killed the Blood Jade Spider, forcing the Void Sky Cauldron back into its hole, but Heaven Mending Pills burst from it and drew the cultivators into a fresh scramble. Lin Yun took the pills and challenged the Nascent Soul cultivators, while Nangong Wan remained concealed to seize the cauldron.
Lin Yun returned to the Cold Li Platform, took the Heaven Mending Pill and Wolf-Head Jade Ruyi, and challenged the orthodox and demonic Nascent Soul cultivators to fight for them. After exposing Profound Bone’s identity and provoking him and Extreme Yin, Lin Yun launched into battle against the gathered cultivators.
Lin Yun overwhelmed the cultivators at Cold Li Terrace, destroyed Extreme Yin’s demon corpses, and drew the others away with the Heaven Mending Pill. Profound Bone returned to confront Han Li, who refused to help him retrieve the Void Sky Cauldron, and their battle began.
Nangong Wan killed Profound Bone and helped Han Li retrieve the Void Sky Cauldron, while Han Li found a strange rib bone that stirred the soul-crying beast. A hundred li away, Lin Yun captured three spirit beasts with his Sleeve-Heaven-and-Earth and faced a renewed assault from the Righteous and Demonic Path cultivators.
Lin Yun defeated the attacks of Man Huzi and Wan Tianming, then returned to the Cold Li Terrace to help Nangong Wan and Han Li claim the Void Sky Cauldron and its deep blue ice flame. The group collected the flame and freed the cauldron before the other cultivators could return.
Lin Yun, Nangong Wan, and Han Li escaped the Cold Li Terrace and followed Han Li’s map to a hidden teleportation array. They arrived at a spring where Han Li recognized Yuan Yao and Lin Yun discovered ten thousand year spirit milk, leaving the group poised to explore the chamber’s treasures.
Lin Yun found ten thousand year spirit milk and explained its uses to Han Li and Nangong Wan. After discovering Yuan Yao needed help saving a soul, he gave her a healing pill and half of the soul-nurturing wood, while keeping the other half.
After leaving the Void Sky Hall, Lin Yun gave Han Li the soul-nurturing wood and a pill formula, then departed with Nangong Wan to begin seclusion. Lin Yun prepared to break through and form his golden core, while Nangong Wan studied the Void Sky Cauldron.
Han Li learned that the Inverse Star Alliance was preparing to attack Tianxing City and was caught in a battle on South Bright Island. After escaping, he discovered that Ling Yuling had secretly followed him, and their conversation turned to her friend Lin Yun.
Han Li met Ling Yuling, helped her defeat two Inverse Star Alliance cultivators, and followed her toward Tianxing City. Meanwhile, Lin Yun completed his golden-core breakthrough and demonstrated his newly formed yang spirit avatar to Nangong Wan.
