Ji Wuchang identified lightning as the force that split the cliff and suspected Myriad Phenomena Grass grew below. As rival sects and hostile groups gathered at the gorge, he found himself surrounded by people seeking the grass and several enemies seeking his life.

• Ji Wuchang explained to Gan Yue and the others that lightning gathered at the cliff and that Bu Yixian had likely found Myriad Phenomena Grass on its platform.
