• Lei Bin proposed a contest of three battles: the clans would send one fighter in the first, two in the second, and five in the third.

• The Eight Great Imperial Clans realized Sun Yuan could briefly immobilize opponents, and Yang Chaoyi and Yin Juechen agreed to cover each other in their battle against him.
• Yang Chaoyi and Yin Juechen entered the formation space and formally challenged Sun Yuan together.

Sun Yuan fought Yang Chaoyi and Yin Juechen, whose combined Yin and Yang origins temporarily pushed their power into the Heavenly Firmament King Realm.

• Sun Yuan broke the Yin-Yang World Power barrier with his sword, shocking Yang Chaoyi and Yin Juechen.
• Sun Yuan explained that their World Power was weak compared with Lin Heng’s, while his training under Lin Heng had made him far stronger than he realized.

• Sun Yuan faced the five remaining experts, whose combined Power of Origin of the Five Elements would make the final round especially difficult.
• The Eight Great Imperial Clans discussed Sun Yuan’s strength and worried that another loss would establish the Battle Heaven Pavilion’s prestige in the Fourth Heaven.

The Eight Great Imperial Clans secretly strengthened their five fighters by transferring their Power of Origin, but Sun Yuan stepped aside so Lin Heng could fight the third battle. Lin Heng accepted the challenge and offered to concede if the five opponents could withstand one move from him.

• Five Heavenly Firmament Emperor Realm cultivators volunteered to replace the five contestants, but Lin Heng insisted on the agreed rules and offered to concede if his opponents took one move from him.

Lin Heng entered the formation space as a Primordial Chaos split spirit and challenged five experts of the Eight Great Imperial Clans to withstand one move. He halted their five-element qilin with a gesture, then opened a spatial black hole, but their strengthened formation resisted its suction.

• Sun Yuan warned Lin Heng about the five experts’ combined power, and Lin Heng revealed that he had sent only a Primordial Chaos split spirit rather than his true body.
• Lin Heng entered the formation space, where the five fighters of the Eight Great Imperial Clans followed and taunted him.
• The five fighters fused their origins of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth into a formation that summoned a powerful five-colored qilin.
• Lin Heng pointed at the qilin and said, “Still!”, restoring the distorted space and stopping its momentum.
• Lin Heng opened a spinning spatial black hole above the formation, but the five fighters poured more origin power into the qilin and resisted its suction.

• The five combatants used stored Power of Origin to repel Lin Heng's spatial black hole and mocked him, while the Eight Great Imperial Clans celebrated.
• Lin Heng summoned an eight-colored sword from the black hole, and its pressure made the five combatants and their five-colored qilin tremble.

• The Evil Avatar resolved to cultivate in seclusion so he could keep pace with Lin Heng.
• Sun Yuan asked the Eight Great Imperial Clans to fulfill their promises and provide the rewards for the three battles, including building a sect for Battle Heaven Pavilion.

After the Battle Heaven Pavilion won its campaign in the Fourth Heaven, the Eight Great Imperial Clans debated whether to attack Lin Heng but chose to wait for their agreement’s deadline. Back at the pavilion, Lin Heng told his allies he was confident they would prevail when they entered the Third Heaven.

• The Eight Great Imperial Clans paid their losses and were forced to build the Battle Heaven Pavilion’s sect grounds in the Fourth Heaven.
• The eight Saint Emperors watched Sun Yuan depart and argued over whether to launch a surprise attack on Lin Heng and the pavilion.

• Lin Heng addressed the pavilion’s leaders through a wisp of divided consciousness and declared that he was confident they would sweep all before them when they entered the Third Heaven.
