A month later, he found the blood-colored rock that marked the Divine Shrine of the War God Zangtian.

Chu Xisheng tested his improved defenses and newly formed saber baleful intent before entering the Secret Realm’s third layer, still searching for clues about the Nine-Heavens Time Wheel. There, Zhu Guangyin replaced the expected Torch Chi trial with a Temporal Mirror Image of the Blood-Yazi Saber Lord in his youth, leaving Chu Xisheng facing a swordsman whose style matched his own.

• Leng Chana tested Chu Xisheng’s External Astral Force with rapid sword strikes but failed to break through its concentrated defenses.

• Chu Xisheng saw Zhimoshan watching from a distant hill, and Zhimoshan fled while believing he had assessed Chu Xisheng’s strength and could defeat him with the help of his allies.

Chu Xisheng chose to pursue rare treasures in the third layer rather than chase Zhi Moshan or search for Chu Ming, while Jian Shifei’s group entered the Nine-Bend Demon Intestine Cavern to pursue Chu Ming. Chu Ming sensed them closing in and fled deeper into the cavern with Chu Shan and Chu Shi as they tried to locate its treasures.

Chu Xisheng and his companions escaped the Gold-Silver Mountains with rare treasures, including Years-Origin Mystic Metal and Mysterious Essence Divine-Blood Pine nuts. Ren Zhongshou traded Chu Xisheng a map and Spiritual Vein chart for a share of two cavern treasures, and the map revealed a path to perfect the Nine-Heavens Time Wheel.

The Formless Divine Sect elders discussed Chu Xisheng’s effort to decipher the Wooden Sword Immortal’s sword move and the value of rescuing him. In the Nine-Bend Demon Intestine Cavern, Chu Xisheng made rapid progress while Chu Ming escaped Jian Shifei’s pursuit and began searching for two divine treasures.

• Zhou Liangchen resisted the Nine-Bend Time-Mark Grass’s mental lure, while the giant swallowed a Six-Bend stalk and began turning some of its bark into flesh.

Chu Xisheng watched the Giant Fiend Beast’s strange behavior and realized Chu Ming’s attempt to steal the Nine-Bend Time-Mark Grass would provoke it, so he retreated with his allies. After Chu Ming escaped the beast’s attack and reached the group, Jian Shifei and his thirty-three companions arrived and launched an assault, leaving Chu Xisheng to face them as he emerged from his thoughts.

The beast turned completely to wood and looked toward the immense stone pillar as powerful fiends approached the Divine Stone Pit.

As the rite threatened to reshape the balance of power, the Great Ning emperor faced a choice between allowing it to proceed or obstructing it at great cost.

As the fiend beasts swarmed the Divine Stone Pit, Fang Buyuan confronted Gu Jian and the returning Heavenly Pillars to protect the Wooden Sword Immortal.
