Li Xian waited ten eras beside the Book of Destiny and searched the Immortal Realm for the Great Dao of Fate, but found no answer. After intervening to protect the Blood Sword Immortal King, he suddenly realized something about fate as he was leaving.

• Li Xian went to the Heaven's Mandate Cult and examined the Book of Destiny, then spread his Divine Sense across the Immortal Realm and probed its Origin Sea for the Great Dao of Fate.
