As the allied force arrived, Sikong Ying revealed the treasure’s existence and said Immortal Alliance headquarters would take responsibility for it.

• Li Yunjing gathered Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng, then met Sikong Ying, who explained the plan to attack Purple Forest Mountain.
• Sikong Ying led the first group of cultivators aboard an Extreme Crossing Boat, which quickly gathered the larger righteous-path force and sped toward the mountain.

• Sikong Ying confirmed the Immortal Artifact’s existence and said Immortal Alliance headquarters would take it, concealing any risk to Li Yunjing.

The strike devastated the stronghold, though Pei Tu and two other Nascent Soul Late Stage Devil Cultivators survived the initial assault.

• Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng told Li Yunjing that no Spirit Transformation Realm Devil Cultivators were nearby, leaving him to handle the remaining threats.
• After the cultivators disembarked at Purple Forest Mountain, Sikong Ying asked Li Yunjing to stand by at the Extreme Crossing Boat’s formation core.
• Sikong Ying sent Li Yunjing coordinates for a Devil Cultivator stronghold, and Li Yunjing activated the Great Geng Heaven Sword Formation.
• The sword formation killed the stronghold’s weaker Devil Cultivators and badly wounded Pei Tu and two other Nascent Soul Late Stage Devil Cultivators.
• The seventy-two spirit swords joined into a massive sword pillar and obliterated the Black Wind Devil Cavern.

Li Yunjing used the Extreme Crossing Boat’s formations to annihilate six Nascent Soul Perfection Devil Cultivators, then replaced the boat’s depleted power core. After Sikong Ying relayed Fang Hexuan’s discovery, Li Yunjing flew to a giant portal made entirely of Void Nether Stone and covered in spatial Dao patterns.

• Li Yunjing received a real-time view of six Devil Cultivators charging toward the Extreme Crossing Boat.
• Li Yunjing trapped the six attackers and activated lightning, fire, soul-suppressing, and blade formations, destroying their bodies, Nascent Souls, and souls.
• Sikong Ying told Li Yunjing that the boat had used up much of its power, so Li Yunjing replaced its power core.
• Sikong Ying relayed that Fang Hexuan had found a strange place possibly connected to an Immortal Artifact, and Li Yunjing left the boat to investigate.
• Fang Hexuan directed Li Yunjing southeast, where Li Yunjing found a giant portal built entirely from Void Nether Stone and linked by spatial Dao patterns.

A white streak dragged Li Yunjing through the incomplete portal into a desolate space, where the weakened artifact spirit of the Five Aggregates Cauldron tried to seize his body. The Immortal Bone inside Li Yunjing protected him, and he threatened the phantom with submission or death.

• Li Yunjing warned Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng that the portal was incomplete, but a white streak suddenly seized him and pulled him through it.
• Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng attacked the streak to save Li Yunjing, but their efforts failed.
• Li Yunjing awoke in a desolate place and recognized the nearly transparent phantom as the artifact spirit of the Five Aggregates Cauldron.
• The phantom tried to take Li Yunjing's body, but protective divine light from the Immortal Bone repelled him.
• The phantom demanded to know why the Immortal Bone helped Li Yunjing, and Li Yunjing threatened him with five breaths to submit or die.

Li Yunjing forced Five Spirits Lord to submit and learned that the artifact spirit and the Feathered Immortal Bone had both fallen from the Immortal Realm. The Feathered Immortal Lord then appeared from Li Yunjing’s chest, revealing that he was alive and that he had chosen Li Yunjing for a purpose that would become clear after ascension.

• Li Yunjing refused to negotiate with the phantom and gave it one breath to accept submission.
• Five Spirits Lord handed over his true spirit, which Li Yunjing’s Immortal Bone drew in and refined before returning it to him.
• Five Spirits Lord explained that he was the spirit of the Five Aggregates Cauldron and had ruined Purple Forest Mountain by using its power to create his hidden space.

• The Feathered Immortal Lord emerged from Li Yunjing’s chest, said he meant no harm, and told Li Yunjing to keep exploring the bone’s mysteries before ascending.

Li Yunjing returned from the hidden space with the Five Spirits Lord, concealed the immortal artifact’s whereabouts from his companions, and helped Sikong Ying finish the sweep of Purple Forest Mountain. As the righteous cultivators prepared to return to Xunxian Town, a strange light rose from underground and transformed the sky into a silent prison.

• The Feathered Immortal Lord gave the Five Spirits Lord Immortal Spirit Qi, urged him to help Li Yunjing become an immortal, and returned to the immortal bone before falling asleep.
• The Five Spirits Lord hid himself from Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng, and Li Yunjing told them he was safe without revealing what had happened.
• Li Yunjing persuaded Fang Hexuan to leave the Void Nether Stone portal alone and report its location to the Immortal Alliance instead.
• Li Yunjing helped Sikong Ying find the remaining Devil Cultivators, then told him where the portal was while keeping the immortal artifact’s whereabouts secret.
• Ninety-two righteous cultivators returned to the Extreme Crossing Boat after more than two hundred Devil Cultivators were killed, but the group mourned their losses.
• As Sikong Ying prepared to return to Xunxian Town, eerie light erupted from underground, stopped the flow of Spiritual Qi and wind, and covered the sky with dark purple devil clouds.

A Spirit Transformation great devil emerged from a rift and attacked the cultivators aboard the Extreme Crossing Boat. Fang Hexuan unleashed Divine Firmament Divine Lightning to destroy the devil, then demanded to know who else would challenge him.

• The Spirit Transformation great devil appeared and its overwhelming might battered the cultivators aboard the Extreme Crossing Boat.
• Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng attacked the devil, and Fang Hexuan wounded it with lightning spears.

• Fang Hexuan summoned Divine Firmament Divine Lightning and erased the devil rings and the great devil.
• Fang Hexuan, drained by his attack, shouted, “Who else!?” and received only silence.

After Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng killed the Nine Nether Devil Lord, Li Yunjing returned to the Luozhen Sect and recovered from the battle’s lingering effects. He collected the sect’s monthly resources and spent his Patriarch Incense Offering on treasure draws, while the Five Spirits Lord grew more confident in the sect’s potential.

• Fang Hexuan returned to the Extreme Crossing Boat and treated his injuries as Li Yunjing and Sikong Ying discussed the threat of retaliation from the demonic path.
• Sikong Ying identified the slain great devil as the Nine Nether Devil Lord, a Spirit Transformation cultivator from the Devil Abyss whose seal had recently broken.

• The Five Spirits Lord praised the Luozhen Sect’s resources and said he hoped to become an Innate Spirit Treasure after returning to the Immortal Realm.
• Li Yunjing collected the sect’s monthly resources and spent 287 wisps of Patriarch Incense Offering on 28 treasure draws, receiving items he considered of little use.
• As Li Yunjing went to inspect the medical hall’s construction, the Five Spirits Lord questioned how the treasures had appeared and remained convinced the sect was extraordinary.

After receiving word that the decisive battle against the demons would begin in three days, Li Yunjing upgraded the Luozhen Sect’s medicine garden to level seven and learned that level eight could produce universal Spirit Medicine Embryos. He left Nangong Ye to cultivate more Medicine Spirits and went to inspect the artifact refining workshop.

• Li Yunjing found Nangong Ye with the Yellow Dragon Ginseng and asked about his health, then urged him to nurture more Medicine Spirits to help suppress his Geng Metal Qi.
• Li Yunjing left the garden to upgrade other buildings and approached the artifact refining workshop, where ten refiners were making Law Artifacts.

Li Yunjing checked the artifact refining room, talisman room, and Spirit Cuisine Pavilion, learning what each would gain at its next level and what conditions were needed for the upgrades. He left the pavilion planning to upgrade the remaining buildings in one go.

• Li Yunjing approved Guo Rong's request for a second-grade artifact refining furnace and urged him to make plenty of second-grade Law Artifacts.
• Li Yunjing inspected the artifact refining room's lv6 effects and found that Law Artifacts might gain complete artifact spirits once it was upgraded.

Li Yunjing reviewed the benefits and upgrade conditions of six upgraded buildings and then went to check on Chu Chenzhou at Serene Valley. Chu Chenzhou reported that the Spirit Vein beneath the valley was growing, though he did not yet know why.

• Li Yunjing saw that the upgraded Welcoming Immortal Pavilion could attract cultivators to join the Luozhen Sect and that the Hall of Sages could provide inheritance fragments.
• Li Yunjing went north to find Chu Chenzhou studying the Spirit Vein at Serene Valley.
• Li Yunjing noticed an exclamation mark in the Spirit Vein's health information and asked Chu Chenzhou whether something was wrong.
• Chu Chenzhou said the Spirit Vein beneath Serene Valley appeared to be growing.

Chu Chenzhou revealed that the Spirit Vein beneath Serene Valley was growing after an unknown force replenished stolen earth Qi, and Li Yunjing discovered a strange creature that might be a Vein Spirit. Li Yunjing upgraded the Spirit Vein Pavilion to lv6 and learned that its next upgrade required a Vein Spirit, greater sect prosperity, and a fourth-grade Five Phases Origin Crystal.

• Chu Chenzhou told Li Yunjing that the Spirit Vein was growing and had replenished more earth Qi than had been stolen.
• Li Yunjing investigated the Spirit Vein and sensed a trace of life essence before finding a horned, spiky creature resembling a pangolin.

• Li Yunjing upgraded the mountain gate to lv6, strengthening its defenses and increasing the sect’s Spiritual Qi and Earth Vein Spiritual Qi production.
• Li Yunjing used Earth Vein Spiritual Qi on the Luozhen Sect grounds until the system reported that a Blessed Land Spirit Foundation was forming, with completion estimated to take one year.
• Li Yunjing invested the remaining Earth Vein Spiritual Qi and resolved to keep upgrading the mountain gate so he could supply more.
