Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong called for Purple Mansion cultivators to enter the Ten Thousand Demons Formation and help break it from within. Kong Wenxuan and six cultivators from the Ya and Jiao Households accepted the task, and the chapter ends as they entered the formation and faced its suppressive conditions.

• Bi Yanshu said the formation had to be attacked from inside and out, and assigned the Bi Household’s Purple Mansion cultivators to support the external assault.
• Bi Yanshu asked Kong Wenxuan and cultivators from the Ya and Jiao Households to enter the formation, offering them Bifang Jade Pendants for protection.

• Ya Xingheng and Jiao Jing'en agreed that whoever killed the most demons would treat the others after the battle.
• The Ya and Jiao cultivators entered the formation, followed by Kong Wenxuan with his Great Five Elements Sword Formation.
• Inside the formation, the seven cultivators found their senses and powers suppressed while the demons were strengthened by the twisted Yao Qi and demonic light.

Kong Wenxuan and the Jiao and Ya Household cultivators used their distinct strengths to attack the Ten Thousand Demons Formation. Their combined assault heavily damaged the formation as the battle continued.

• Kong Wenxuan drove the Great Five Elements Sword Formation through the Ten Thousand Demons Formation, slaughtering Demon Race members, Demon Beasts, and demon-blood cultivators.
• Kong Wenxuan paused between sweeping attacks to take pills and recover his bloodline and Purple Mansion power.
• The Jiao Household's three Purple Mansion cultivators established and expanded a defensive position with earth- and wood-element arts, killing attackers and damaging the formation.
• The Ya Household's three Purple Mansion cultivators unleashed more than a thousand Fire Crow Clones, sweeping a sea of fire through the formation and burning its enemies and demonic energy.
• Kong Wenxuan watched the two households fight and recognized that their methods inflicted more damage on the formation than his sword formation alone.

Kong Wenxuan and the others resisted attacks from Fourth Tier demons while the Bi Household army destroyed the Ten Thousand Demons Formation. With the marsh cleared enough to reveal the True Martial Hall, Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong recognized that the invading martial cultivators were seeking an Origin Fragment and ordered everyone to attack.

• The Fourth Tier demons abandoned their defense of the Ten Thousand Demons Formation and attacked Kong Wenxuan and the other cultivators inside it.
• Kong Wenxuan used the Bifang Jade Pendant to block a black python’s attack, then found his Great Five Elements Destruction Sword Light could not penetrate its defenses.

• Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong led the Bi Household army in breaking the Ten Thousand Demons Formation, allowing starlight to disperse the marsh’s demonic haze.
• Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong recognized the palace in the marsh as the True Martial Hall and warned that the invaders sought to seize an Origin Fragment for the True Martial World.

Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong recognized that the True Martial Hall in the Eastern Forest Great Marsh was being used to plunder the region’s Origin Fragment, which could devastate Bifang Commandery and its lineages. They led the Bi Household’s forces into battle as the hall unleashed black water and a True Martial manifestation to confront the Bifang True Spirit Star.

• Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong recognized the True Martial Hall as a means of plundering the local Origin Fragment and ordered an immediate assault.
• The Bi Household’s leaders feared the plunder would drain the marsh and bring lasting harm to Bifang Commandery and its True Spirit Lineages.
• Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong led their army toward the True Martial Hall while the Bifang True Spirit Star projected starlight and Calamity Fire at it.
• The True Martial Hall summoned a python-headed, human-bodied figure that sent black water against the Bifang True Spirit Star’s attack.
• The hall’s black water flooded the Great Marsh, empowering the invading water-witch martial cultivators as they charged the attacking True Spirit Lineages.

After two months of bitter fighting in the Eastern Forest Great Marsh, the exhausted household armies had failed to destroy the True Martial Hall, while enemy reinforcements continued to arrive. Bi Yanshu called the household leaders together and announced another summons to bring the county’s full strength into the battle.

• Kong Wenxuan used his Third-Tier giant crocodile and Great Five Elements Sword Formation to kill enemies, while the Kong, Bi, Ya, and Jiao forces fought across the marsh.
• After heavy casualties among their Dao Soldiers and disciples, the Kong, Ya, and Jiao Households withdrew to rest, and the Bi Household also suspended its assault.
• Kong Wenxuan and the other leaders recognized that fresh First- through Third-Tier enemies had reinforced the Demon Race and invading martial cultivators.
• Bi Yanshu summoned Kong Wenxuan, Jiao Jing'en, Ya Xingheng, and the other household leaders, then announced a new summons that would include the cultivator households in their service.

Bi Yanshu explained why the commandery had to rely on its own forces to fight the invading Demon Race and martial cultivators while the strongest cultivators were tied down on the Outer Heaven Battlefield. After learning that losing Origin Fragments could doom their lineages, Kong Wenxuan and the others supported a new conscription order and called for reinforcements.

• Kong Wenxuan and representatives of other households questioned Bi Yanshu about mobilizing the whole commandery instead of asking a Nascent Soul True Lord or neighboring forces for help.
• Bi Yanshu explained that most powerful cultivators were fighting on the Outer Heaven Battlefield, while invasions were spreading across the True Spirit Realm and nearby commanderies could not spare aid.
• Bi Yanshu said the invading forces in the commandery were limited to Fourth-Tier fighters and promised that the Bi Household would send Golden Core True Persons, cultivators, and Dao soldiers to help destroy the stronghold and True Martial Hall.
• Bi Yanshu warned that losing Origin Fragments could cripple or destroy the local True Spirit Lineages and bloodline households.
• Kong Wenxuan and the others agreed to the conscription order and sent messages to their households to summon their subordinate servant-cultivator households as reinforcements.

Bifang Commandery gathered nearly all its forces to attack the True Martial Hall and stop the invaders from plundering Origin Fragments. The assault began, with Kong Wenxuan leading Peacock County’s vanguard while Kong Changgeng followed with the rest of its forces.

• Kong Changgeng arrived with Peacock County’s reinforcements, including thousands of cultivators from the Kong Household and its vassal lineages.
• Fire Crow County, Wildebeest County, Pit Viper County, and other counties sent large forces, while the Bi Household assembled tens of thousands of cultivators and additional Golden Core True Persons.
• Bi Yanshu promised merit and rewards to motivate the assembled forces, which faced tens of thousands of silent enemy troops gathered around the True Martial Hall.
• Bi Yanshu ordered the attack, and the Bi Household’s forces charged first as its Golden Core cultivators formed two Three Talents Battle Formations.
• The county forces charged into the Great Marsh, and Kong Wenxuan entrusted his team to Kong Changgeng before taking the lead as Peacock County’s spearhead.

Kong Wenxuan led the Peacock County force toward the True Martial Hall while gaining insight into sword cultivation through battle, making his Great Five Elements Sword Formation more powerful and reducing his force’s casualties. He was jolted from his insight when the Fire Crow Ya Household breached the hall first.

• Kong Wenxuan pushed through the Great Marsh battlefield under an agreement to focus on the advance while Kong Changgeng rallied the forces behind him.
• Kong Wenxuan recalled the sword cultivators he had seen during the Star Inlaying and Rank Advancement Trials and began controlling his Five Elements Sword Formation with greater agility.
• Kong Wenxuan gained insight into sword cultivation through battle, strengthening the formation and helping his force advance while suffering fewer casualties.
• Kong Wenxuan heard crows and saw the Fire Crow Ya Household breach the True Martial Hall first.

Bifang Commandery’s forces broke through the True Martial Hall’s defenses, weakening Black Water True Martial and shifting the battle in their favor. After the Ya and Jiao Households entered, Kong Wenxuan led the Peacock County force into the hall, where the fight for the merit of slaying the general remained ahead.

• The Ya Household’s Fire Crow County force breached the True Martial Hall first, and the Bi Household’s forces blocked enemy elites from coming to its aid.
• The Jiao Household’s Wildebeest County army broke through next, further weakening Black Water True Martial and tilting the battlefield toward Bifang Commandery.
• Kong Wenxuan directed the Great Five Elements Sword Formation with newfound ease and led the Peacock County force through the collapsing enemy lines.
• Kong Wenxuan called on the Peacock True Spirit Star, broke through the black water and black light, and led his force into the True Martial Hall.

Kong Wenxuan entered the True Martial Hall’s secret realm and learned that destroying the Black Water True Martial statue at its core would reclaim the stolen Heaven and Earth Origin fragments. He fought toward the statue while drawing enemy forces away from the Ya and Jiao Household cultivators, but Ya Xingheng fell in battle.

• Kong Wenxuan discovered that the True Martial Hall’s vast inner realm had formed from stolen Heaven and Earth Origin fragments, and that destroying its core could return them to the True Spirit Realm.
• Kong Wenxuan saw the Ya and Jiao Households’ armies battling pursuing enemies and True Martial statues while their Purple Mansion cultivators advanced toward the Black Water True Martial statue.
• Kong Wenxuan ordered Kong Changgeng to lead their forces in battle, then activated the Great Five Elements Sword Formation and fought toward the statue.
• Third Tier enemies intercepted Kong Wenxuan and the Ya and Jiao Household cultivators, but his advance drew foes away and eased pressure on them.
• Ya Xingheng, the Fire Crow County commandant, fell in battle among the Ya Household’s Purple Mansion cultivators.

Kong Wenxuan learned that the Black Water True Martial statue had killed Ya Xingheng by controlling the Power of Heaven and Earth. The Ya, Jiao, and Kong forces agreed on a plan to breach its protection, leaving Kong to destroy the statue while the others handled the enemy forces.

• Kong Wenxuan activated his Bifang Jade Pendant after Ya Xingheng was killed, then changed course to join the Ya Household cultivators.
• Ya Xinghe told Kong Wenxuan that the Black Water True Martial statue controlled the Power of Heaven and Earth and that its attacks had overwhelmed Ya Xingheng.
• The three households gathered and agreed they could not retreat while the True Martial Hall continued expanding and stealing the world's Origin Fragment.
• Jiao Shihuan offered to temporarily break through the statue's protection, while Ya Xinghe's forces would hold off the Third Tier enemies.
• Kong Wenxuan agreed to deliver the final strike and destroy the Black Water True Martial statue.

The Jiao Household broke through the Black Water True Martial divine statue’s protective power while the Bi Household army disrupted the secret realm, giving Kong Wenxuan a chance to strike. Kong Wenxuan merged the Great Five Elements Sword Formation’s techniques into a single sword light and destroyed the statue.

• Ya Household cultivators held off the Third Tier enemies while the Jiao Household cultivators formed a battle formation and drove their Earth and Wood Single Horn through the statue’s power of heaven and earth.
• The Black Water True Martial divine statue counterattacked, but the Bi Household army’s assault sent three-colored Calamity Fire through cracks in the secret realm’s sky and drew the statue’s attention away.
• Jiao Shihuan urged Kong Wenxuan to strike, but Kong Wenxuan focused on the Great Five Elements Sword Formation to reach the strongest state he could control.
• Kong Wenxuan merged several sword techniques into the Great Five Elements Destruction Sword Light and sent it through the path the Jiao Household had opened.
• The sword light cleaved the Black Water True Martial divine statue in two and destroyed it.

After the True Martial Hall secret realm collapsed, Kong Wenxuan discovered that its fragments could be absorbed into a True Spirit Secret Realm. The Kong Household drew their fragment into the Peacock Secret Realm, where the Five-Colored Starlight weakened their enemies and let them launch a counterattack.

• Kong Wenxuan and the others prepared to flee the collapsing True Martial Hall secret realm, but Bi Yanshu urged the True Spirit Lineages to stay for a fortuitous opportunity.
• The secret realm shattered into Origin Fragments that began sinking into the Origin Sea, and Kong Wenxuan used a hand seal to summon the Kong Household's Peacock Secret Realm.

• The Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit restored the Kong Household's strength and suppressed their enemies with Five-Colored Starlight.
• Kong Changgeng ordered the Kong Household forces to form ranks and attack, while Kong Wenxuan deployed the Great Five Elements Sword Formation against the Third Tier enemies.

Kong Wenxuan and the Kong Household cleared invading enemies from Origin Fragments and merged them into the Peacock Secret Realm. After the Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit dragged in the True Martial Realm’s core fragment, the secret realm surpassed a thousand li and a sea eye formed in its great lake.

• Kong Wenxuan found he could no longer send the Great Five Elements Destruction Sword Light beyond his sword formation, but the Kong Household’s forces and Five Elements Grand Formation slaughtered the enemies in the first Origin Fragment.
• The Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit pulled more Origin Fragments from the turbid Origin Sea, and Kong Wenxuan’s forces cleared them, expanding the secret realm by nearly a hundred li.
• The Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit dragged in a much larger core fragment bearing the Black Water True Martial statue, now a damaged Third Tier Devil Creature.
• Kong Wenxuan drew the Black Water True Martial statue Devil Creature into his sword formation and killed it, while the Kong Household’s forces cleared the rest of the fragment.
• The core fragment merged into the secret realm’s northern lake, forming a sea eye and pushing the realm’s extent past a thousand li.

Kong Wenxuan inspected the Sea Eye spirit land and realized it could strengthen the Peacock Secret Realm and potentially help it advance into a blessed land. After learning that the fighting in Black Crane County had mostly ended, he discovered that the Demon Race’s invasion had served a deeper purpose involving Origin Fragments.

• Kong Wenxuan examined the Sea Eye’s spirit water and water Dao resonance, and considered whether treasure lands of all five elements could advance the Peacock Secret Realm and its True Spirit Star.
• Kong Wenxuan concluded that the Sea Eye had likely formed as feedback from the Origin gained by destroying the Black Water True Martial statue.
• Patriarch Kong Changgeng arranged the withdrawal of Kong Household forces and rewards for the servant cultivator families that had fought in Black Crane County.
• Kong Wenxuan contacted the Bifang Commandery office and learned that most invading forces had been killed or injured, leaving scattered groups in the Eastern Forest Great Marsh.
• The commandery office said Peacock County did not need to send its army back, though teams could help the He Household clear the remaining invaders in exchange for promised resource rights.
• Kong Wenxuan learned that the Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven had reclaimed the Demon Race Secret Realm and taken Origin Fragments, revealing that the Demon Race had invaded to pursue its own goal.

After the invasion of the Eastern Forest Great Marsh was repelled, Kong Wenxuan stayed with the Kong Household to recover and strengthen his swords while the patriarch prepared to help reclaim Black Crane County. Kong Wenxuan began upgrading the White Metal Divine Sword with Mithril in the Peacock Secret Realm.

• Kong Wenxuan learned that the Demon Race had taken Origin Fragments into the Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven, limiting the damage mainly to the Eastern Forest Great Marsh and Black Crane County.
• With the True Martial Hall destroyed and the Demon Race's main forces gone, the fighting in Bifang Commandery paused and the commandery office stopped summoning cultivators.
• Kong Wenxuan decided to remain with the Kong Household to recover, cultivate, and advance his Azure Wood Divine Sword and White Metal Divine Sword, while the patriarch led members to Black Crane County.
• Kong Wenxuan entered the expanded Peacock Secret Realm and resumed cultivation and sword refinement at the Ancestral Spirit Mountain Peak.
• Kong Wenxuan chose to refine the White Metal Divine Sword first and fed it Third-Tier Mithril from a jade box.

Kong Yushuo advanced to the Third-Tier Purple Mansion Stage, becoming the Kong Household’s third Purple Mansion cultivator, and his success lifted the spirits of the Lineage and Peacock County. After returning to seclusion, Kong Wenxuan completed more than four years of work refining the White Metal Divine Sword, raising it to a Third-Tier Treasure Artifact.

• Kong Yushuo broke through to the Third-Tier Purple Mansion Stage as the Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit’s starlight suppressed and purified his demonic nature.
• Kong Wenxuan congratulated Kong Yushuo, who credited the Lineage’s resources and True Spirit Star alongside his own efforts and battles.
• The Kong Household held a banquet for Kong Yushuo to celebrate his breakthrough and bolster morale after losses in the Eastern Forest Great Marsh battle.
• Kong Wenxuan returned to seclusion and used the final portion of Third-Tier Mithril to complete the White Metal Divine Sword’s refinement.
• The White Metal Divine Sword ascended to a Third-Tier Treasure Artifact, its sharpened edge slicing a gust of wind in two.

Kong Wenxuan tested his newly advanced Third-Tier White Metal Divine Sword, then sensed the Ya Household’s Fire Crow True Spirit Star ascending from the Eighth-Grade True Spirit Heaven. The Fire Crow Star entered the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Heaven, while the Kong and Jiao Households watched.

• Kong Wenxuan used Refining the Sword into Threads to cut apart Third-Tier divine weapons and armor, confirming the strength of his White Metal Divine Sword.
• Kong Wenxuan sensed a disturbance in the Peacock True Spirit Star and discovered that the Ya Household’s Fire Crow True Spirit Star was attempting to ascend.
• Kong Wenxuan recognized that the Jiao Household was also observing the Fire Crow Star through its Wildebeest True Spirit.
• The Ya Household’s Fire Crow Star surged toward the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Heaven, aided by the False Phoenix blood it had acquired from the Du Household.
• The Fire Crow True Spirit Star broke through the zenith of the Eighth-Grade True Spirit Heaven and ascended into the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Heaven.

Kong Wenxuan watched the Fire Crow True Spirit Star pass its advancement trial and rise to the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Heaven, making the Ya Household the first Seventh-Grade True Spirit Lineage in Bifang Commandery. He prepared to attend their celebration, but learned it would be held a year later, likely to give the Ya Household time to nurture Golden Core True Persons.

• Kong Wenxuan watched the Fire Crow True Spirit Star survive its Rank Advancement Trial and stabilize in the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Heaven.
• Kong Wenxuan decided to attend the Ya Household's celebration and seek advice about advancing to the Golden Core Stage and raising the Peacock True Spirit Star's rank.
• Kong Wenxuan asked Kong Changlan to follow news from the Ya Household and sent Kong Yushuo to Cuckoo Town to offer congratulations and inquire about the celebration.
• The Ya Household announced that its rank advancement celebration would take place a year later.
• Kong Wenxuan, Kong Changgeng, and Kong Yushuo concluded that the Ya Household had postponed the celebration to nurture Golden Core True Persons who could preside over it.

Kong Wenxuan spent a year refining the Azure Wood Divine Sword with Third Tier Black Water Paulownia Wood, then set out with Kong Household companions for the Fire Crow Ya Household’s rank-advancement banquet. He chose a route through Cuckoo Town to limit travel through dangerous wilderness.

• Kong Wenxuan used nine pieces of Third Tier Black Water Paulownia Wood heartwood to begin advancing the Azure Wood Divine Sword, refining the first piece over the course of a year.
• When the Fire Crow Ya Household’s banquet approached, Kong Wenxuan paused his work and gathered Kong Yuyin, Kong Yuluo, Kong Wenzhang, Kong Wenjun, Kong Huancai, and more than a dozen disciples in Peacock County.
• Kong Wenxuan led the party aboard the Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat, choosing it over a faster Third Tier cloud boat to represent the Kong Household.
• Kong Wenxuan piloted the boat toward Cuckoo Town before heading to Fire Crow County, avoiding a direct route across the wilderness where scattered Demon Race forces and martial cultivators still posed a threat.

Kong Wenxuan and the Kong Household party traveled to Fire Crow County to attend the Ya Household’s promotion banquet, learning that the household had gained two Golden Core cultivators. After they arrived in Fire Crow County City, Ya Zhaoying invited Kong Wenxuan to meet her.

• Kong Wenxuan’s party stayed in Cuckoo Town, where Ya Xingqu hosted them and shared news of the Ya Household.
• Kong Wenxuan led his party through the wilderness toward Fire Crow County, passing groups of wild bloodline families heading there to seek the Ya Household’s protection.
• After five days, Kong Wenxuan’s party entered Fire Crow County and traveled through its fire-rich lands toward the volcanic county city.
• Kong Wenxuan and his companions arrived at Fire Crow County City and settled into lodgings arranged by the Ya Household.
• A Ya Household cultivator invited Kong Wenxuan to meet Ya Zhaoying, who had advanced to the Golden Core Stage, and he accepted.

Ya Zhaoying invited Kong Wenxuan to discuss the Dao and offered to share her Golden Core breakthrough experience in exchange for his future Nascent Soul insights. The chapter ended with Ya Zhaoying beginning to teach him about core formation.

• Kong Wenxuan visited Ya Zhaoying to congratulate her on reaching the Golden Core Stage, and she welcomed him with Fire Mulberry tea and fruit.
• Ya Zhaoying explained the generations of effort and resources her household had spent rising to Seventh-Grade True Spirit rank, and the dangers of seeking further advancement amid the invasion.
• Kong Wenxuan encouraged Ya Zhaoying to earn merit by fighting the invaders, but she described the risks and proposed another path through an exchange of cultivation experience.
• Ya Zhaoying agreed to share her Golden Core formation experience if Kong Wenxuan later shared his Nascent Soul breakthrough experience with her.
• Kong Wenxuan accepted the deal, and Ya Zhaoying began sharing her core-formation experience and the Ya Household's records and inheritances.

Kong Wenxuan gained Golden Core formation insights from Ya Zhaoying before attending the Ya Household’s peaceful rank advancement celebration. As the Kong Household party left Fire Crow County, its members resolved to cultivate harder and advance to the Purple Mansion Stage.

• Kong Wenxuan spent three days discussing the Dao with Ya Zhaoying, who shared her Golden Core formation experience and materials; he promised to repay her with a discussion of the Nascent Soul Dao.
• The Ya Household held its celebration, where Ya Zhaoying preached about the Dao of Fire and the attending lineages formally exchanged rights and trade shares with the newly promoted seventh-grade lineage.
• The gathered households discussed Demon Race and martial cultivator invasions, but the Bi Household offered no details about the Outer Heaven Battlefield and said the situation was under control.
• Kong Wenxuan left Fire Crow County with the Kong Household party, observing the crowds of wild-bloodline cultivators arriving to join the Ya Household.
• Kong Wenzhang and Kong Yuyin vowed to enter secluded cultivation and reach the Purple Mansion Stage, and Kong Wenxuan led the party toward Cuckoo Town.

While traveling from Fire Crow County toward Cuckoo Town, Kong Wenxuan and his party encountered Demon Race members attacking a wild-bloodline lineage. They wiped out the attackers, and Kong Wenxuan reported the incident to Ya Zhaoying, leaving the Ya Household to handle the aftermath.

• Kong Wenxuan sensed a battle ahead and ordered the Kong Household party to prepare for danger.
• Kong Wenxuan found two Demon Race members and more than a hundred Demon Beasts and demon birds overrunning a wild-bloodline lineage's grounds.
• Kong Wenxuan killed both Demon Race leaders with his Third Tier Crimson Fire Divine Sword, and the beasts and birds fled.
• Kong Wenxuan and the Kong Household party attacked the fleeing creatures and wiped them out.
• Kong Wenxuan left Kong Wenzhang and Kong Huancai to assist the survivors and sent Ya Zhaoying a report about the attack.

Kong Wenxuan guarded the Kong Household cultivators attempting to reach the Purple Mansion Stage while refining his sword. Third Aunt Kong Yuyin succeeded, but Sixth Uncle Kong Yushan succumbed to the Demonic Nature Backlash, forcing Kong Wenxuan to kill him.

• After returning to Peacock County, Kong Wenxuan and his companions reported the Demon Race’s presence, and the Kong Household sent out additional patrol teams.
• Kong Wenxuan resumed refining the Azure Wood Divine Sword while Kong Yujin, Kong Yuyin, Kong Yuluo, Kong Yutang, Kong Yuling, Kong Wenzhang, and other cultivators entered seclusion to attempt the Purple Mansion Stage.
• Two years later, Kong Yuyin began her breakthrough, drawing on the Peacock True Spirit Star to suppress the Demonic Nature Backlash as Kong Wenxuan stood ready to intervene.
• Kong Yuyin successfully advanced to the Third Tier Purple Mansion Stage, earning congratulations from Kong Wenxuan and the other members of the Lineage.
• Less than a month later, Kong Yushan failed to suppress the backlash and degenerated into a Third Tier Peacock Demon Beast, so Kong Wenxuan killed him with his Crimson Fire Divine Sword.
