• Xu Long assigned Feng Sihu and the other three Earth Immortals to guard the cultivation grounds while he investigated the beast tide.

Xu Long subdued Yin Corpse Boy, discovered a dangerous other dimension inside the coffin, and gave the corpse to Feng Sihu as a new body. As beast tides overwhelmed the Boundless Wilderness, Xu Long suspected the Duck Beast King was using them to target Pinglu Daoist Sanctuary, but the chapter left his theory unconfirmed.

• Xu Long refined the baleful aura in Cao Chali's coffin, but an eerie face and laughter trapped his will in another dimension until the Wisdom Sword broke him free.

• Feng Sihu possessed Yin Corpse Boy, and Xu Long told him to prepare to help fight the beast tide.
• Xu Long planned to confront the Duck Beast King, potentially with Perfected Lord Pinglu, while communication tokens brought urgent reports of Dao Fields under attack.
• Xu Long noticed that the unusual beast tides seemed designed to scatter cultivators and wondered whether the Duck Beast King was targeting Pinglu Daoist Sanctuary.

• The young master told Uncle Chen that the Dragon King was still coiled inside the stepped well and said he had alerted the heir so the Saint could be informed.

After escaping the Vast Sea, the Saint Daoist Sanctuary’s young master set out to punish the surrounding sects, while Xu Long organized cultivators against the Duck Beast King’s beast tide. At the Golden Splendor Dao Field, Luo Huayu and Luo Ning faced an overwhelming siege, and a high-level beast seized the opening in her defensive formation, leaving the Dao Field on the verge of being breached.

• Luo Ning defected from the grotto-heaven and blessed land with several companions after its elders refused to aid Luo Huayu at the Golden Splendor Dao Field.
• Luo Ning and his companions fought through a beast tide, then hurried to the Golden Splendor Dao Field after he realized the high-level beasts had gone there.
• Luo Huayu continued defending the Golden Splendor Dao Field rather than abandon its mature spiritual essence, while Luo Ning’s group was swallowed by the beasts outside.
• Luo Huayu opened a gap in her defensive formation to admit Luo Ning’s group, but a high-level beast occupied it and threatened to breach the Dao Field.

• Luo Ning and the other cultivators regrouped as Xu Long approached the Dao Field, and the vicious beasts retreated before them.

Xu Long defended Golden Splendor Dao Field while Luo Huayu refined the Jiaolong Beast King's Inner Core into a special Mystic Origin Barrier-Breaking Pill for his breakthrough. The pill neared completion as the Beast King's energy drew the high-level vicious beasts into a renewed assault.

• Luo Huayu told Xu Long that Zhu Peizi and the Mystic Immortal cultivators were defending Pinglu Daoist Sanctuary, while the Duck Beast King remained missing.
• Xu Long insisted that the Duck Beast King had hidden its aura and was orchestrating the beast tide, so Luo Huayu warned the True Lord before they set out for Pinglu Daoist Sanctuary.

Xu Long discovered that the Duck Beast King had used the beast tide to isolate Perfected Lord Pinglu and attack him at the Pinglu Main Vein. Xu Long defeated the Duck Beast King, but Perfected Lord Pinglu died peacefully, leaving Xu Long to arrange the sanctuary’s future and deliver Yun Peng’s belongings to Yun Kun.
