• After completing his tribulation on the twentieth day, Ji Wuchang returned to the Ji Family to handle a matter involving the World-Destroying Millstone.

Ji Wuchang accompanied the World-Destroying Millstone into the void to confront two Chaos Vicious Beasts, where Fairy Mo revealed the millstone’s true power. The millstone crushed the Void Beast, and its escaping soul was captured by the Myriad Souls Banner, which Ji Wuchang brought under control.
