After learning that Youquan had assigned Protectors Qing and Luan to watch him, Xu Long set off toward the Southern Foothills Mountain Range with his own plan to abduct Hong Gu.

• Li Xiuran crushed a small talisman and looked toward the ground beneath the Southern Foothills Mountain Range, remembering the responsibility entrusted to him by the Ancestor and the sect.

After Li Xiuran died, Xu Long entered the Southern Foothills Mountain Range and met Hong Gu, whom he had come to invite on Alliance Leader Youquan’s behalf. He used her Spirit-Gathering Array to absorb most of the mountain range’s spiritual energy, restored his magic power to sixty percent, and retrieved nine array flags before a jade tablet bearing Li Xiuran’s name cracked at Mount Emei.

• Xu Long stopped the array and retrieved its nine hidden array flags from beneath the mountain range.
• At Mount Emei, a jade tablet engraved with Li Xiuran’s name cracked as an old man sat motionless in a cavern.

Xu Long used the names of the Insomnia Blood Demon and Dan Chenzi to raid cultivation grounds across both factions, draining their spiritual resources and provoking war while restoring his power. As the real Dan Chenzi pursued him toward Zhuolu, Xu Long defended Hong Gu’s nearly completed seal-breaking array from Dan Chenzi’s sword attack.

• Dan Chenzi sent a rain of sword beams at Hong Gu’s array, but Xu Long’s World-Breaking Blade intercepted the attacks and tangled with Dan Chenzi’s sword light.

Xu Long endured Dan Chenzi’s attacks while absorbing the mountain range’s spiritual energy, then broke through to the Mid Tribulation Transcendence Stage and revealed a mysterious array and Dharma body. He vanished after Dan Chenzi considered retreat, leaving the elder to pursue the supposed Blood Alliance villain while Dan Chenzi suspected a trap.

• Dan Chenzi used his fan-feather sword and power of laws to attack the Spirit-Gathering Array, but Xu Long’s barriers and World-Breaking Blade resisted him.
• Xu Long refined the abundant spiritual energy, steadied his magic power, and advanced to the Mid Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

• Dan Chenzi told the elder that the Blood Alliance cultivator was dangerous and suggested waiting for reinforcements, but the enraged elder pursued the villain alone.
• Dan Chenzi suspected the vanished cultivator had lured them away from the sect and could not determine the purpose of the clues.

Xu Long lured Dan Chenzi and other righteous cultivators to the ancient battlefield, where the Blood Alliance prepared to break its seal and open the Chi You Blood Cave.

Xu Long battled Li Yijun, breaking his storm phenomenon with the Colossus Dharma Body and a Spiritual Qi Bombardment before turning their sword techniques against each other. Li Yijun survived Xu Long’s final strike by unleashing power beyond the Half-Immortal realm, but appeared battered and decayed as the World-Breaking Blade attacked again.

• Li Yijun trapped Xu Long’s sword light and sent a hidden sword strike at him, but Xu Long blocked it with barriers and summoned the Colossus Dharma Body.

• Youquan found the wounded Mo Yu and praised him for helping kill Li Yijun, while Mo Yu credited Youquan with doing most of the work.

• Youquan brought Xu Long to the ancient battlefield, where Lady Hong and the Blood Alliance cultivators prepared for the formation to open the cave.
• Youquan entrusted the injured Xu Long to Divine Lord Chishi, who used eye contact to invade his mind with blue will-o’-the-wisps.
• Xu Long gathered his soul and resisted Chishi’s illusions and resentment by relying on his firm Dao heart.
• Xu Long counterattacked by devouring the will-o’-the-wisps, absorbing their soul force and leaving Chishi increasingly weakened.

Xu Long overcame the devil spirit’s final assault by allowing it to enter his soul core and confronting it with the memories of his arduous journey, then consumed its remaining power.

• Youquan promised to restore the Jade Pivot Sect, and Hong Gu departed as the seal emerged from beneath the ancient battlefield.
• The formation’s energy fully revealed the Yellow Emperor’s seal, but it did not budge.

The Chi You Blood Cave opened, and Youquan led the Blood Alliance cultivators inside while Xu Long revealed that he had faked his injuries to stay behind. Investigating Li Yijun’s flying sword, Xu Long uncovered evidence that Li Yijun had relied on a mysterious stump and planned to seize Li Xiuran’s body to escape death.

• Youquan told the Blood Alliance cultivators that Xu Long would guard the Chi You Blood Cave instead of entering, and the cultivators swore to destroy Mount Emei.
• Cracks opened in the seal, and Youquan, Divine Lord Chishi, and the other Blood Alliance cultivators entered the Chi You Blood Cave.
• After the cultivators entered, the array closed the cracks, and Xu Long recovered his strength and revealed that he had faked his weakness to deceive Youquan.
• Xu Long examined Li Yijun’s flying sword and used its remnant of divine sense to search Li Yijun’s memories.
• Xu Long discovered that Li Yijun had drawn life from a mysterious stump and suspected that he intended to seize Li Xiuran’s body to prolong his existence.

Xu Long recovered his damaged will by absorbing Divine Lord Chishi’s devil spirit, then sent his True Dragon Clone into the Chi You Blood Cave while preparing to seize the Haotian Mirror. The clone found itself alone in the sealed cave, where it sensed that the dense blood energy could offer a major opportunity.

• Xu Long suspected that the mysterious tree stump had corrupted Li Yijun and considered whether someone from the Heavenly Palace could enter other worlds to collect world origin.

• The True Dragon Clone entered the Chi You Blood Cave with the other Blood Alliance cultivators, but the cave scattered them into separate locations.
• The clone examined the cave’s sealed, gray world and sensed that its dense blood energy could benefit cultivators who practiced blood-energy techniques.

The young man entered the Chi You Blood Cave and resisted a deceptive haze that tried to lure him toward the mountain range and its bloodline inheritance.

• The young man burned Divine Lord Chishi's corpse and headed toward the mountain range, following the growing bloodline qi.

• The young man joined an enormous encampment as it marched through the mountains, drawn onward by the stirring of his bloodline power.
• The encampment reached an open plain where other armies gathered, and the young man sensed Chi You's essence blood beneath a spiral pit.

• Youquan attacked the encampment’s fierce beasts with an Earth Immortal Dharma Seal and forced a gap through its ranks, though the figures shattered his seal and pinned down his blade.
