• Yang Yong found himself at the entrance to Warehouse No. 12 amid a busy warehouse scene that he suspected was an illusion, but he could not use his Curios or Sequence ability.

Yang Yong found himself in a past-era version of Tuanjie Village and realized the Qipao Woman, once an Eerie, appeared to be living there as a human. After discovering he could not leave the village, he broke into an empty house to spend the night.

• Yang Yong wandered until dark, broke into an unlit house near the guesthouse area, and spent the night there.

Yang Yong discovered that Tuanjie Village reset every seven days and that the Song Family Eldest Miss was the only person whose actions did not repeat, while Wang Ying tested the illusion by attacking its inhabitants. The three remained trapped in separate versions of the village, with Yang Yong planning how to reach the Song residence and Wang Ying confirming that the people around her were unreal.

• Yang Yong searched Tuanjie Village for clues, encountered the middle-aged tailor Eerie, and then found the Eerie General, who could not explain what was happening to Wang Ying.

Yang Yong watched Tuanjie Village and its eerie beings disintegrate into pixels before Old Tailor’s measuring tape strangled him. After his powers returned and he broke free, he found himself among a carpet of human bones and realized someone was watching him.

• The Song family's eldest daughter began disintegrating into pixels, and the collapse spread across Tuanjie Village while its eerie beings appeared afraid.
• Yang Yong called out to Wang Ying, but she kept mechanically swinging her cleaver as the world crumbled around them.
• Old Tailor's measuring tape tightened around Yang Yong's neck, and his magical artifacts and powers returned as he struggled to breathe.
• Yang Yong unleashed the Heavenly Dragon Slash, forcing the measuring tape to recoil back into Old Tailor's hand.
• Yang Yong recovered among a field of human bones, then looked around and realized someone was watching him.

Yang Yong and the others emerged from a shared illusion into a silent world of bones and flowing blood, where humans and Eerie faced one another without attacking. After Wang Ying and Liu Hong regained their senses, everyone recognized that their surroundings were real, but the cause of the strange standoff remained unclear.

• An ordinary man pinched himself and said the place was real, and Yang Yong noticed the convoy's notebook-holding leader and a woman carrying a guitar.

Yang Yong and his companions felt the presence of a terrifying owner in the Eerie Domain, forcing three powerful Eerie to withdraw. After the humans recovered, Ye Zefeng introduced his team, proposed cooperation, and identified the place as an Eerie Domain according to his Fate-Changing Book.

• Yang Yong sensed an overwhelming presence claiming the bone-filled space as its territory, and the humans and ghosts froze in fear.
• The Qipao Female Ghost, the Grudge Child, and Old Tailor each withdrew, with Old Tailor glaring at Yang Yong over the stolen scissors.
• Yang Yong and the others recovered, and Ye Zefeng approached and introduced himself as captain of the Score-Chasing Convoy.
• Ye Zefeng introduced Wang Jinglan and Liang Xiuyan, while Yang Yong introduced Liu Hong and Wang Ying and revealed their sequence ranks.
• Ye Zefeng proposed that the groups work together and said his Fate-Changing Book identified the place as an Eerie Domain.

Yang Yong and Ye Zefeng inspected the Eerie Domain for clues to escape, and Yang Yong used the Red-Clothed Female Ghost’s vision to uncover the threat stalking the group. He fled with Wang Ying and Liu Hong, warning the others to run as the ghost infants’ approach grew louder.

• Yang Yong questioned Ye Zefeng about his Fate alteration ability, and Ye Zefeng explained that he could alter events on a small scale and foresee some developments but lacked enough information to predict the Eerie Domain’s rules.
• Yang Yong and Ye Zefeng led their teams in examining Bone Mountain, the Blood River, and the endless bones, while Yang Yong sensed a contemptuous gaze watching them.
• Yang Yong summoned the Red-Clothed Female Ghost and demonstrated that she was his ghost pet before using her eyes to view the Ghost Domain.
• Through the ghost’s vision, Yang Yong saw black-blooded threads connecting the group to a giant figure atop Bone Mountain, while ghost infants gnawed at their vitality.
• Yang Yong grabbed Wang Ying and fled with Liu Hong, then shouted for the Minute-Chasing Convoy to run as the ghost infants’ chewing drew closer.

Yang Yong, Wang Ying, Liu Hong, and the Score-Chasing Convoy fled as skeletons rose from the bones and blood-colored monsters emerged from the river. Ye Zefeng saved a fallen teammate with his Fate-Changing Book, but the survivors found themselves surrounded by thousands of enemies and forced to fight.

• Yang Yong, Wang Ying, and Liu Hong ran, and Ye Zefeng saw a warning in his Fate-Changing Book before ordering the Score-Chasing Convoy to follow.
• The bones across the wilderness assembled into White-Bone Skeletons as blood-colored figures climbed out of the river and pursued the fleeing survivors.

• Yang Yong used the Ten-Thousand-Forged Primordial Furnace to draw more than a hundred fallen skulls inside and begin tempering them.
• The survivors discovered skeletons and blood-colored monsters blocking every direction, leaving them surrounded and with no choice but to fight.

Wang Ying, Ye Zefeng, and Yang Yong fought monsters that could recover from being cut apart, while Ye Zefeng combined Fate Alteration with Wang Ying’s slash to make the creatures unable to regenerate. The group remained surrounded as new monsters poured from the bone-covered ground and river of blood.

• Wang Ying cut through thousands of skeleton and bloody-water monsters, but they reassembled and despair spread through the Score-Chasing Convoy.

• Wang Ying struck again, and Ye Zefeng’s Fate Alteration made the monsters she cut unable to recover.
• Yang Yong and the others fought as new skeletons and bloody-water monsters kept emerging, surrounding them in an increasingly tight encirclement.

Yang Yong pushed the Ten-Thousand-Forged Primordial Furnace to forge a Curio while Wang Ying, Liu Hong, and the others fought off relentless monsters. As the encirclement closed in, Ye Zefeng changed the monsters’ fortunes and urged everyone to attack.

• Yang Yong realized the furnace could absorb only monsters whose cores Wang Ying had destroyed, then fed it more defeated monsters as materials.
• Wang Ying’s power waned, Ye Zefeng could not alter fate again yet, and Liu Hong’s gunfire only slowed the regenerating monsters as they closed in.
• Yang Yong poured his Supernatural Power into the furnace and begged Wang Ying, Liu Hong, and the others to buy him time while it forged a Curio.
• Wang Ying and Liu Hong attacked the advancing monsters, but the skeletons reassembled themselves from bones on the ground.
• Ye Zefeng wrote three sentences in his Fate-Changing Book, changed the monsters’ fortunes, and called for everyone to attack.

As the Score-Chasing Convoy’s fighters weakened against endless waves of skeletal and blood-water monsters, Yang Yong worked on a Curio in the Ten-Thousand-Forged Primordial Furnace and promised it could give them a way out. Just as the furnace consumed nearby monster remains and rekindled the group’s hope, a colossal monster formed from merged skeletons rose in the distance.

• Ye Zefeng altered the rules governing attacks, allowing Wang Ying, Liu Hong, Wang Jinglan, and Yang Yong to kill the monsters more effectively.

• A dozen enormous skeletons merged into a single gigantic skeletal monster that rose and shook the ground.

Yang Yong completed the Cause-and-Effect Scissors just as a blood river overwhelmed the survivors after Wang Ying, Ye Zefeng, and Liang Xiuyan failed to stop it. The chapter ended with Yang Yong holding the dangerous Curio, with everyone’s fate still uncertain.

• Wang Jinglan shot the giant skeleton monster, but its head quickly healed, and Liu Hong’s gunfire failed to slow its charge.
• Wang Ying cut the giant skeleton monster in half, but the blood monster transformed into a surging river and attacked the survivors.
• Ye Zefeng created a barrier with the Fate-Changing Book, but the blood river shattered it and left him incapacitated.
• Liang Xiuyan attacked the blood river with her guitar, but its wounds healed immediately as it closed in on the helpless survivors.
• Yang Yong caught the newly forged Cause-and-Effect Scissors as the Ten-Thousand-Forged Primordial Furnace opened.

Yang Yong used the Cause-and-Effect Scissors to build a sealed Bone House, sheltering the group from the monsters and blood river. After the danger passed, the exhausted survivors rested and shared food inside.

• Yang Yong cut the bone ground into slabs while Ye Zefeng figured out his plan and the others helped raise the walls.
• As Wang Ying, Liu Hong, and Wang Jinglan held back the bloody-water monster, Yang Yong and Liu Hong sealed the group inside the Bone House.
• The monsters and blood river froze outside, then the skeletons collapsed and the bloody water flowed back to the Blood River.
• Ye Zefeng checked the Fate-Changing Book, which said the danger had passed for now, and accidentally struck Yang Yong's wound while congratulating him.
• Yang Yong put away the Cause-and-Effect Scissors and told Ye Zefeng to let the Score-Chasing Convoy rest as members shared their stored food.

Yang Yong and his companions tried to endure their confinement in Tuanjie Village while Cao Xianming and Mang Dabiao searched for a way to rescue them. A vine-covered figure’s attempt to breach the village failed, and the chapter ended as a woman in the Bone House accused Yang Yong of hoarding food.

• Yang Yong shared Ghost Hand Mushroom slices and water with Wang Ying and Liu Hong, then let Wang Ying treat his wounds from using the Cause-and-Effect Scissors.
• Yang Yong reflected that the scissors were powerful but damaged him badly whenever he used them, unlike Liu Hong, whose wounds healed almost instantly.
• Mang Dabiao reported that he could not contact Yang Yong as Cao Xianming continued calculating an erratic route for the Survival Convoy to follow.
• A vine-covered figure tried to enter Tuanjie Village but was forced back by Eerie attacks, then planted a seed that grew into a life-draining Climbing Vine along the village boundary.
• Yang Yong told Wang Ying and Liu Hong they had to stay alive until the others found a way to rescue them, then rested while sensing a presence outside the Bone House.
• A woman in the Score-Chasing Convoy stared greedily at Yang Yong and sarcastically demanded to know how they had so much food.

Yang Yong’s group drew the starving survivors’ attention when Liu Hong shared food, and Yang Yong stopped others from treating his generosity as an entitlement. As the confrontation in the Bone House quieted, Yang Yong saw an unseen force draining a woman’s body, leaving the survivors facing a new danger.

• A woman named Chen Xuemei asked Yang Yong’s group for food, and Liu Hong gave her a flatbread and water.
• When another woman demanded food, Yang Yong threatened her with a Heavenly Dragon Slash Flying Dagger, but Ye Zefeng intervened and gave her a compressed biscuit.
• Several women complained that Ye Zefeng had fed only one of them, until Wang Jinglan aimed her heavy sniper rifle and silenced them.
• Yang Yong saw the loudest woman become immobilized as her skin shriveled and her body appeared to lose its moisture, flesh, and life.

Yang Yong discovered that threads in the Ghost Domain were draining everyone’s vitality and used Liu Hong and the Cause-and-Effect Scissors to sever them. Liu Hong endured the violent backlash and regenerated repeatedly as Yang Yong and his companions began freeing themselves from the threads.

• Yang Yong recognized that the thread above Lei Dan’s head was draining her life and ordered Liu Hong to cut it with the Cause-and-Effect Scissors.
• Liu Hong severed Lei Dan’s thread, suffering wounds that burst across his body before regenerating after eating Ghost Hand Mushroom slices and drinking water.
• The Score-Chasing Convoy members asked what had happened, but Yang Yong focused on the threads still attached to himself, Wang Ying, and Liu Hong.
• Yang Yong ordered Liu Hong to cut the thread above his own head, and Liu Hong endured a backlash more than ten times stronger than before.
• Liu Hong repeatedly ate, recovered, and severed threads until Yang Yong, Wang Ying, and Liu Hong were freed first.

Yang Yong explained that invisible threads in the Ghost Domain were draining everyone’s vitality, and Ye Zefeng failed to sever his thread with Fate Alteration. Wang Jinglan asked Yang Yong for help, and Ye Zefeng agreed to Yang Yong’s terms, leaving the Score-Chasing Convoy under his orders and promising half their supplies after they escaped.

• Liu Hong cut the Life-Draining Threads above Liu Hong, Wang Ying, and Yang Yong, then fell asleep before cutting the Score-Chasing Convoy’s threads.
• Yang Yong told Ye Zefeng and the Score-Chasing Convoy that invisible threads were draining their vitality and Supernatural Power.
• Liang Xiuyan sensed a thread above her head, while Wang Jinglan confirmed her power was draining faster than normal.
• Ye Zefeng tried to sever his thread through Fate Alteration but spat blood and said his Sequence Two abilities were insufficient.
• Wang Jinglan asked Yang Yong to help and offered anything the convoy had, while Yang Yong demanded their obedience and half their supplies after they escaped.
• Ye Zefeng accepted both terms on behalf of the Score-Chasing Convoy.

Yang Yong explained why the ordinary people in the Score-Chasing Convoy could not have their life-draining threads cut safely, while their remaining time dwindled. Suspecting that something deeper than vengeful spirits was feeding from Bone Mountain, he sent the White-Clothed Love Letter Ghost to investigate the threads’ source.

• Yang Yong told Ye Zefeng that cutting an ordinary person's thread would trigger a fatal backlash, unlike a Transcendent's ability to survive it.
• Yang Yong noticed the threads above the ordinary people growing thicker and redder, while the severed thread continued draining the badly weakened Lei Dan.
• Ye Zefeng asked how long the convoy could survive with their threads intact, and Yang Yong estimated around twelve hours if they had enough food.
• Yang Yong resolved to prioritize his own convoy and considered that vengeful spirits might not be the only cause of the life-draining threads.
• Yang Yong ordered the White-Clothed Love Letter Ghost to follow the threads to their source and find out what was there.

Yang Yong waited in the Bone House while the Score-Chasing Convoy chose to have only its three Transcendents’ draining threads cut. He was then approached by Zhu Yuhao, who begged to use the Cause-and-Effect Scissors to save his wife, Hu Huaying, even if cutting the thread killed him.

• Ye Zefeng told Yang Yong that the convoy wanted him to cut the threads of only its three Transcendents, leaving the ordinary people despairing.
• Yang Yong rested in the Bone House while waiting for the Love Letter Ghost to investigate what the threads came from.
• When Hu Huaying and Zhu Yuhao approached, Yang Yong’s Heavenly Dragon Slash forced them back before he recognized them as a married couple from the convoy.
• Zhu Yuhao knelt and kowtowed to Yang Yong, asking to use the Cause-and-Effect Scissors to save Hu Huaying, even at the cost of his life.
• Zhu Yuhao said he hoped Hu Huaying would live if only one of them could survive, while she wept and begged Yang Yong not to let her husband die.
• The convoy’s ordinary people fell silent as they witnessed Zhu Yuhao’s willingness to sacrifice himself for Hu Huaying.

Zhu Yuhao asked Yang Yong to let him use the Cause-and-Effect Scissors to save his wife, even at the cost of his own life. Yang Yong instead had Liu Hong cut the threads above both Zhu Yuhao and Hu Huaying, and the couple survived with only mild weakness.

• Zhu Yuhao told Yang Yong he was willing to die so Hu Huaying could live, despite knowing the scissors might kill him and might not save her.
• Liu Hong woke healed, and Yang Yong gave him food before revealing that he could cut Hu Huaying's thread.
• Yang Yong asked Zhu Yuhao to choose who would live, but Zhu Yuhao and Hu Huaying each pleaded for the other to be saved.
• Yang Yong promised to spare them both in exchange for Zhu Yuhao's medical skills and had Liu Hong cut Hu Huaying's thread.
• Liu Hong cut Zhu Yuhao's thread as well, and the couple suffered only slight weakness while Liu Hong's shallow wounds quickly healed.
• The other survivors, encouraged by the couple's survival, stood up and began calling out to Yang Yong.

Yang Yong learned from the White-Clothed Love Letter Ghost that a vast heart at the summit of Bone Mountain was gestating a demon and feeding on the ghost domain. After seeing the heart’s overwhelming power in an illusion, he realized his group would struggle to survive it.

• Yang Yong ignored the trapped people’s pleas for help while Liu Hong freed Ye Zefeng and the other two Transcendents from their threads.
• The White-Clothed Love Letter Ghost returned and gave Yang Yong a letter saying a beating heart at the top of Bone Mountain was gestating a demon.
• Yang Yong heard an immense heartbeat, briefly mistook it for a real sound, and reassured Wang Ying that nothing was wrong.
• Yang Yong opened the letter and saw through the White-Clothed Love Letter Ghost’s perspective that blood vessels from the heart spread throughout the ghost domain.
• The illusion revealed that the heart was a greater Eerie whose oppressive presence overwhelmed the Love Letter Ghost, leaving Yang Yong to consider how his group could survive.

Yang Yong discovered that the threads in the ghost domain were connected to living people whose life force was being drained. He found Zhang Bihuang and Xiao Yuxia fighting monsters with two unfamiliar groups, then set out with Wang Ying and Liu Hong to rescue them.

• Yang Yong sent the Little Girl Eerie and the Red-Clothed Female Ghost to investigate the threads, and the Little Girl Eerie was repelled by an attack.
• Borrowing the Red-Clothed Female Ghost’s senses, Yang Yong saw threads turn red as people connected to them died and realized the threads were feeding on human life.
• Yang Yong followed the threads to a battlefield of skeleton and blood-water monsters, where he recognized Zhang Bihuang and Xiao Yuxia among three Off-Road Vehicles.
• Zhang Bihuang suspected the Red-Clothed Female Ghost was Yang Yong’s ghost pet, and Yang Yong ordered it to help the group break out.
• Yang Yong called Wang Ying and Liu Hong to join him in rescuing the survivors, while Ye Zefeng, Liang Xiuyan, and Wang Jinglan also prepared to prove their usefulness.
