• A point of white light erupted from the gray mist, and Qi Yun emerged in Great Sun radiance, proclaiming his Great Sun True Intention.

After revealing that he was a Daoist who had used a Buddhist guise to deceive the heavens, Qi Yun faced the furious Bodhisattvas. Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva attacked with his Divine Court, but Qi Yun’s Dharma Idol Heaven and Earth met it in an even clash, leaving Qi Yun poised to use a stronger technique.

• The Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva roared as his Fruition Status shook, while Qi Yun’s kept striking with greater force.

• The Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva called on Dragon Elephant Prajna Bodhisattva and the other Buddhist figures at Spirit Mountain to help him.

• Qi Yun declared that from then on he would be called the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord.

• Qi Yun affirmed his path as “Rely on no Fruition Status, seek no Golden Nature,” and declared, “My Dao is truth, my heart is law! I am Fruition Status!”

Qi Yun and Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord confirmed that the True Lord’s unconventional path was viable, then set out for the sect. Near the sect’s territory, Qianxin and Qingli were trapped by Heisha’s formation as Qi Yun arrived and heard Heisha threaten to seize him.

• Qi Yun’s original self congratulated Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord on attaining the Dao, and they discussed the strengths and limits of his Fruition Status-free path.

• Qi Yun’s calm voice reached the trapped group, asking whether Heisha truly intended to do so.

Qi Yun freed True Persons Qianxin and Qingli by destroying the Thousand Caverns Ten Thousand Mountains Great Formation, then overwhelmed True Person Heisha and called for Black Mountain to appear in person.

The chapter ended with Black Mountain True Person emerging wounded from the rubble and Qi Yun demanding that he pay his respects to the new sect master.

• Black Mountain True Person attacked Qi Yun with a talisman containing Wudao Extreme Dharma True Lord’s power, but Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord appeared and dissolved the attack with Infinite Light.

• Qi Yun looked toward Black Mountain True Person and asked through a voice transmission why he had not come to pay his respects to the new sect master.

Qi Yun used his new authority as sect master of the Wuji Sacred Sect to punish and remove members of Black Mountain True Person’s faction under the sect laws. In a secret conversation with four True Lords, Wudao True Lord revealed why he tolerated Qi Yun’s purge and warned that the events at Spirit Mountain suggested the Dao Masters were beginning to wake.

• Qi Yun convened the Wuji Sacred Sect’s True Persons and declared that he would restore order while relying on the support of Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord and Wudao Extreme Dharma True Lord.

• Qi Yun issued transfers and disciplinary orders against other members of Black Mountain True Person’s faction, dismantling its influence in the sect.

Qi Yun resolved to use the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva’s Golden Nature to cultivate another self and experience the Xuanhuang Dao Attainment Method alongside his existing path. While preparing to choose a suitable lineage, he discovered that True Person Southern Dipper had secretly assembled decades’ worth of resources for the Blood God Scripture, and decided to investigate it despite the danger.

• Qi Yun enclosed Green Mountain Daoist Temple in a private grotto-heaven and studied the Golden Nature he had obtained.
• Qi Yun weighed the established Xuanhuang Dao Attainment Method against Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord’s new path and resolved to cultivate another self to pursue both.
• Qi Yun searched the Holy Sect’s treasury records for resources to support his second cultivation and found a complete set of Blood God Scripture materials prepared over several decades.
• Qi Yun realized True Person Southern Dipper had likely used provocation to guide him toward the Blood God Scripture while leaving a warning he could not explain openly.
• Qi Yun chose to accept the prepared opportunity, trusting that his Law Technique Panel could refine away any hidden trickery.

Qi Yun cultivated the Blood God Scripture for thirty years, mastered the blood sea, and used the Primordial True Body to form the Supreme Nether Underworld Spring Dharma Body. He uncovered the Scripture’s blood sea corruption and a scheme meant to drive cultivators to seek a True Lord’s protection, but his Law Technique Panel showed that his Dharma Body was free of the backlash.

• Qi Yun cultivated the Blood God Scripture for thirty years, transforming his chamber into a vast blood sea and bringing the Scripture’s Foundation Establishment chapter to great perfection.

• Qi Yun checked his Law Technique Panel and saw that the Supreme Nether Underworld Spring Dharma Body had its blood sea backlash mechanism removed.

Qi Yun learned that the Blood God Scripture left a lasting mark on its cultivators, allowing Youquan to find his deceased teacher’s reincarnation. He sent Youquan overseas to locate and protect the old True Person, then summoned Qianxin, Qingli, and Liuguang to the Great Void Hall.

• Youquan changed his face at Qi Yun’s request to conceal his connection to his original body.

Daoist Youquan tracked the old True Person’s reincarnation, Xuanming, to the Jade Jade Palace, where he was due to marry the Seventh Princess in three days. After uncovering the pattern of her husbands’ disappearances, Youquan weighed the danger of a rescue and saw a new entry, [Blood God Son], appear on his Law Technique Panel.

• Daoist Youquan followed the Blood Sea imprint across the overseas waters and found Xuanming on Tianquan Island.
• The Seventh Princess visited Xuanming and confirmed that their wedding would take place in three days.
• Daoist Youquan learned from two dead Jade Jade Palace guards that the Seventh Princess had taken a new talented human husband nearly every year, and that each had soon disappeared.
• Daoist Youquan concluded that the marriages concealed an evil cultivation art and considered using the wedding as an opportunity to reach Xuanming.
• Daoist Youquan judged that his current strength could not face the palace’s true dragon directly, and [Blood God Son] appeared on his Law Technique Panel.

Daoist Youquan unleashed his Blood God Sons against the Teng Puppets to build his Blood Sea cultivation through slaughter. As the nest was devastated, his Law Technique Panel upgraded the ability with a three-use rebirth effect, leaving Youquan ready to intensify the massacre.

• Daoist Youquan decided to seek the Blood Sea Fruition Status by slaughtering alien races and traveled to the Bone-Eroding Nether Sea.
• Youquan found tens of thousands of Teng Puppets gathered at a harvest festival and attacked them with his ninety-nine Blood God Sons.
• The Blood God Sons overwhelmed the Teng Puppets and their sea insects, draining their vitality and feeding their killing karma and resentment into Youquan’s Blood Sea cultivation.
• Youquan’s Law Technique Panel upgraded Blood God Son and added Blood God Immortality, allowing each Blood God Son to be reborn on the spot up to three times.
• Youquan laughed at the upgrade and sent his Blood God Sons back into battle as the Blood Sea behind him surged and sinister blood shadows emerged.

At Xuanming and the Seventh Princess’s wedding, a vast phantom blood sea descended upon the Jade Jade Palace, and the blood-robed Youquan appeared beside Xuanming. Youquan offered to kill anyone who had coerced him, leaving the wedding guests facing an imminent confrontation.

• The Jade Jade Palace and Four Seas Alliance sealed off the Seven Stars Surrounding the Moon Sea and drove outsiders from the area for the wedding.
• Xuanming and the Seventh Princess proceeded through the wedding rites as the guests celebrated.
• The sea darkened and chilled as a vast phantom blood sea appeared overhead and moved toward the Jade Jade Palace.
• Youquan appeared beside Xuanming and rested a hand on his shoulder, startling the wedding guests.
• Youquan told Xuanming to point out whoever had coerced him, promising to kill them.

Youquan slaughtered the guests at the Jade Jade Palace wedding and broke through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, trapping the dragon clan leaders in his Blood Sea Netherworld Realm. As he closed in on victory, the Jade Jade Dragon King summoned the Dragon Lord, whose will began to cross into the realm.

• Youquan urged Xuanming to identify his betrayers, but Xuanming could not bring himself to point at anyone.
• Youquan declared that he would kill everyone and unleashed the blood sea, sending his Blood God Sons to attack the wedding guests.
• The Jade Jade Dragon King, the Seventh Princess, and five other Foundation Establishment cultivators attacked Youquan, but his Blood God Sons blocked their assault and grew stronger by devouring their victims.
• Youquan swallowed four jade stones and broke through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, forming the Blood Sea Netherworld Realm over the Jade Jade Palace and the Seven Stars Surrounding the Moon Sea.
• Youquan summoned nine immense blood waves to crush the seven dragon cultivators, and the wounded Jade Jade Dragon King called on the Dragon Lord with a precious scale.
• The Dragon Lord's will began to cross into the realm, and a calm voice spoke the words, "Infinite Light."

The Dragon Lord withdrew rather than risk fighting the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord, leaving Youquan free to slaughter the Jade Jade Dragon King’s forces. After Youquan gave Xuanming the Seventh Princess, Xuanming killed her, while Youquan continued toward the wounded Dragon King.

• The Dragon Lord recognized the Great Sun Purple Ultimate True Lord and withdrew his manifestation rather than risk aggravating his unhealed injuries.
• The Jade Jade Dragon King cursed Youquan, then watched in disbelief as the Dragon Lord abandoned him.
• Youquan’s blood-wave dragons and Blood God Sons killed the Four Seas Alliance True Persons, leaving the Jade Jade Dragon King and Seventh Princess alive.
• Youquan brought the dying Seventh Princess before Xuanming and told him she was his.
• The Seventh Princess pleaded for her life, but Xuanming stabbed her with the dagger she had once given him and killed her.
• Youquan continued toward the wounded Jade Jade Dragon King and quietly approved of Xuanming’s actions.

Youquan drained the Jade Jade Dragon King until the dying dragon summoned Buddhist aid with a hidden string of prayer beads. Two Arhats arrived, but the Blood Sea’s hostility toward their opposing Great Dao stirred Youquan to kill them, and he began by finishing the Jade Jade Dragon King.

• Youquan gripped the Jade Jade Dragon King by the neck and devoured his dragon essence, blood, cultivation, and life force.
• Near death, the Jade Jade Dragon King tore away a scale to reveal nine Buddhist prayer beads and called for rescue, offering to join the Buddhist Order as a Dharma-protecting Heavenly Dragon.
• The prayer beads opened a golden passage, and two Arhats emerged to find Youquan holding the nearly skeletal dragon in a blood-soaked realm.
• Youquan recognized the Buddhist cultivators as natural enemies of the Blood Sea and decided to kill them.
• The Arhats demanded that Youquan release the Jade Jade Dragon King and submit to judgment, but Youquan broke the dragon’s neck and turned to face them.

Youquan devoured the Jade Jade Dragon King and defeated Arhats Baoguang and Baoshan with his Blood God Sons. After seven days of cultivation in an ocean trench, he realized the Dao Fruit had been in his sea of blood all along.

• The Jade Jade Dragon King's bloodline strengthened Youquan's Blood God Sons, raising all 7,500 of them to Foundation Establishment level.
• Baoshan sent eighteen golden-bodied Arhats against Youquan, but the Blood God Sons overwhelmed them with repeated attacks.
• Baoguang and Baoshan joined their Domain Heavens to hinder the Blood God Sons, so Youquan made successive waves of them self-destruct and shattered both domains.
• Youquan devoured Baoguang, while the remaining Blood God Sons restrained Baoshan as he attempted to detonate his Dao Foundation.
• Youquan escaped as more Buddha light gathered on the western horizon, then spent seven days cultivating in an ocean trench.
• A blood-colored light dissolved into Youquan's palms, and he understood that the Dao Fruit was in his sea of blood.
