• Xiao Hua asked about Xiao Mao, and Pan Hao said he had advanced to mid Foundation Establishment and was still fighting under Yuan Zhiming's orders.
• Xiao Hua grew uneasy when Pan Hao said Xiao Mao was with their group and began asking where he was.

Xiao Hua learned that Xiao Mao was stationed at the Xunyan Sect's spirit stone mine and raced there to save him. Feng Buping intercepted him and revealed that the sword cultivators had used an ambush to lure out the mine's Golden Core defender, leaving Xiao Hua fearing the mine had already fallen.

• Xiao Hua forced Pan Hao to reveal the location of the Xunyan Sect's spirit stone mine, then left to find Xiao Mao.
• Li Zongbao warned Pan Hao to keep Xiao Hua's identity and origins private, and Pan Hao misled the Xunyan Sect disciples who questioned him.

• Feng Buping explained that the ambush was designed to draw out the mine's Golden Core defender, leading Xiao Hua to suspect the mine had already fallen and Xiao Mao's fate had been decided.

Xiao Hua and Feng Buping traded questions about the Xunyan Sect attack, Ling Yunwu, the Sword Pouch, and Xiao Hua’s identity before their fight began. Xiao Hua reclaimed the swords inside the pouch, but Feng Buping broke through the Town Cloud Seal’s clouds with his demonic staff and wind blades.

• Feng Buping questioned Xiao Hua about his Thunder Palace and name, while Xiao Hua tried to learn which Illusion Sword Swordsmen had attacked the Xunyan Sect’s spirit stone mine.
• Xiao Hua gave his name and coaxed Feng Buping into revealing that a secret divine-eye technique let him see through Xiao Hua’s cultivation.
• Feng Buping asked about Ling Yunwu and the other sixteen, and Xiao Hua showed him the Sword Pouch and its flying swords.

• Feng Buping attacked with a demonic staff and wind blades, and Xiao Hua used the Town Cloud Seal to summon clouds that Feng Buping tore apart.

Xiao Hua fought Feng Buping across the Swift Wind Snowfield, losing the Town Cloud Seal but overcoming Feng Buping with his As-You-Wish Staff, Phoenix Dharma Body, and control of the Wind Pearl. Feng Buping then burned his life to open a spatial rift, which began pulling in Xiao Hua and his Phoenix Dharma Body.

• Xiao Hua and Feng Buping clashed with their staffs, and Feng Buping repeatedly struck the Town Cloud Seal's damaged spot until the treasure nearly split apart.
• Feng Buping used a talisman to try to seize the Soaring Flood Dragon Scissors, but Xiao Hua restrained them with Sleeve Universe and the Dharma Eye before the talisman flew north toward an unknown person.
• Xiao Hua fought back with the As-You-Wish Staff, while Feng Buping revealed his Sword Transformation-level bird form and trapped Xiao Hua amid violent winds.
• Xiao Hua summoned his Phoenix Dharma Body, whose heavenly lightning battered Feng Buping and his Wind Pearl, then used Sleeve Universe to take control of the Wind Pearl.
• As Feng Buping weakened, he burned his life to create a spatial rift, and its suction began dragging in Xiao Hua's Phoenix Dharma Body while Xiao Hua struggled to escape.

Xiao Hua survived Feng Buping’s spatial rift, though his Phoenix Dharma Body and Feng Buping’s storage bag were lost; he salvaged the demonic staff and fled. At the Xunyan Sect spirit stone mine, he searched among the dead and captured cultivators for Xiao Mao, then was recognized by an unexpected acquaintance.

• The spatial rift swallowed Xiao Hua’s Phoenix Dharma Body, but its suction abruptly stopped before it could pull him in.
• Xiao Hua found Feng Buping’s demonic staff in a stone wall and flew toward the Xunyan Sect spirit stone mine.
• Xiao Hua reached the mine, hid overnight to restore his magic power, then slipped past the sword cultivators and searched the gathered corpses for Xiao Mao.
• Xiao Hua captured a Bright Sword swordsman, found the cave holding the prisoners, and entered after dispelling its protective flying sword.
• Xiao Hua searched the captured cultivators for Xiao Mao until a limping prisoner recognized him as Xiao Hua of the Thunder Control Sect.

Xiao Hua freed Zhang Xiaogang and several other Xunyan Sect disciples, then learned that Xiao Mao had been captured by an Illusion Sword Cultivator and taken away. He left the remaining disciples restrained for their safety and flew deeper into the spirit stone mine after questioning a captured Bright Sword Swordsman.

• Xiao Hua restored Zhang Xiaogang’s cultivation and gave him healing pills, but Zhang Xiaogang could not undo the sword cultivators’ restrictions on the other disciples.
• Xiao Hua asked the Xunyan Sect disciples about Xiao Mao and learned that an Illusion Sword Cultivator had taken him away with several others.

• Xiao Hua left the cave, placed a flying sword above it to make it appear guarded, and questioned a captured Bright Sword Swordsman about the Illusion Sword Cultivator’s location.
• Xiao Hua flew deeper into the spirit stone mine.

Guan Peng reflected on his plot to seize the Xunyan Sect’s spirit stone mine before Xiao Hua confronted him in his cave. Their clash ended with Guan Peng pausing to negotiate, leaving Xiao Hua puzzled by his sudden offer of Blood Linglong.

• Guan Peng recalled how he and his allies had lured Pang Chongtian into an ambush to locate the Xunyan Sect’s mine and prepared thousands of swordsmen to attack it.
• Xiao Hua appeared in Guan Peng’s cave and claimed he had come to make a deal.
• Guan Peng attacked Xiao Hua with his Red Plum Blossom sword, but Xiao Hua countered with the Leaf Sun Fan and trapped Guan Peng’s little sword in a net of fire.
• Guan Peng recognized Xiao Hua as the Thunder Control Sect’s Terrifying Phoenix and asked what deal he wanted.
• Guan Peng stopped the fight, poured Blood Linglong, and asked Xiao Hua whether he had ever tasted it.

Xiao Hua negotiated with Guan Peng, an injured Illusion Sword swordsman, to free the Xunyan Sect cultivators he had captured. Xiao Hua left Guan Peng trapped and waiting to decide whether to accept the exchange.

• Guan Peng warned Xiao Hua that he could use a secret sword technique to take them both down, while Xiao Hua refused to be provoked into attacking.
• Xiao Hua learned that Guan Peng was from Flying Spirit Mountain Villa and questioned him about the missing Illusion Sword swordsmen and Ling Yunwu.
• Guan Peng refused to release the Xunyan Sect cultivators, calling their capture a great merit, but Xiao Hua argued that his death would only add to Xiao Hua’s reputation.
• Xiao Hua admitted he could not remove the restrictions on the captives without Guan Peng’s help and offered him the chance to enjoy Blood Linglong in exchange for cooperating.
• Xiao Hua destroyed Guan Peng’s cup and wine with Samadhi True Fire, then withdrew the fire net and left Guan Peng to consider the deal.

Xiao Hua coerced Guan Peng into arranging the escape of the imprisoned Xunyan Sect disciples, then secretly looted a hidden spirit-stone cache. He headed north toward Yin Yang Spring Mountain to pursue Xiao Mao and the others, while wondering whether Feng Buping was connected to Empress.

• Guan Peng summoned Guan Qi and directed him to lead the imprisoned Xunyan Sect disciples through a hidden passage so they could escape without Feng Buping discovering the plan.
• After nearly four hundred disciples escaped, Guan Peng pretended to investigate, and Xiao Hua returned his natal flying sword as promised.
• Xiao Hua entered a heavily restricted cave in the mine using the Rabbit Spirit Talisman and took its neatly stacked spirit stones.
• Xiao Hua identified Yin Yang Spring Mountain as the likely destination of the Illusion Sword Swordsmen who had taken Xiao Mao and the others, and chose not to bring Li Zongbao.
• Xiao Hua flew north using Thunder Control Movement and considered whether Feng Buping's wind escape and Spirit Bird were connected to Empress.

After recovering from his battle with Feng Buping, Xiao Hua considered how to replace his lost Dharma Body and reached Yin Yang Spring Mountain. While exploring its hot and cold springs, he spotted a rare rain lotus.

• Xiao Hua stored Feng Buping's Wind Bead and demonic staff, but his Primordial Spirit and Dharma Body gave no response.
• Xiao Hua wondered whether he could cultivate a new Dharma Body by using true blood from a spirit beast or a Cultivation family.
• Two days later, Xiao Hua arrived at the vast, mist-shrouded Yin Yang Spring Mountain.
• Xiao Hua explored its emerald lakes and found fountains that sprayed either hot or exceptionally cold water.
• Xiao Hua noticed a rain lotus gleaming on a distant lake.

Xiao Hua watched a rain lotus bloom and reflected on earning military merit without attracting the attention of his unknown enemy. After a white snake stole the lotus’s pistil and attacked him in the lake, he recovered the lotus root and pursued the snakes through the rock tunnels before turning his attention back to finding Xiao Mao.

• Xiao Hua watched the rain lotus bloom and considered whether to seek greater military merit by killing Qin Jian, despite fearing that success would expose him to his unknown enemy.
• A white snake stole a rain lotus pistil, and Xiao Hua let it escape before diving into the lake to collect the sinking root.
• The white snake attacked Xiao Hua underwater, then more than a dozen snakes emerged and repeatedly targeted him with ice spikes.
• Xiao Hua’s fire and ice techniques failed in the lake, so he released Zhu Meng’s flying swords and chased the snakes into the rock wall with the Art of Earth Evasion.
• After pursuing a white snake through the tunnels, Xiao Hua abandoned the chase and tunneled upward to resume searching for Xiao Mao.
