Lin Heng emerged to confront the demons besieging Great Xia Imperial City, shattered their Blood Cloud Devil Formation, and overwhelmed Tuoba Ke with the Nine Revolutions Golden Body. He remained unharmed after Tuoba Ke's ultimate attack and challenged him with the promise of using Formless Heavenly Devil Kill himself.
