After Yun Tianfan's Dao Dissolution, Yun Du chose to abandon hopes of reaching the Nascent Soul realm and devote himself to nurturing White Peak Cloud Gorge and strengthening White Cloud Temple. As the sect's disciples competed for scarce Heaven and Earth Qi, Shi Jian settled into quiet cultivation while preparing to grow strong enough to protect himself and his kind.

Yun Du kept White Cloud Temple focused on defending its own territory as blood sacrifices spread in other provinces, then handled a zombie outbreak in Heming County caused by a damaged Spirit Vein. The outbreak was suppressed and repairs and inspections were ordered, while the wider calamities remained beyond the Northern Protectorate.

• After hearing Sun Mao's report about blood sacrifices, Yun Du declined to intervene elsewhere and ordered stronger patrols, defenses, and checks on unfamiliar Rogue Cultivators.
• Yun Du directed White Cloud Temple to activate the city's defensive formations, repair communication formations, and send patrol teams throughout its jurisdiction.

• Yun Du ordered the crack sealed and mortal cemeteries across the counties inspected, while the Northern Protectorate returned to its peaceful routine.

Lord Rat secretly gathered yin-aspected materials from cleared zombie sites and sent them to Laosan in the Nine Winds Valley Secret Realm. Laosan used them to build a Yin Qi cave, while the Spirit Rat Line quietly developed the secret realm as Shi Jian’s hidden second base.

• Lord Rat led twelve gray rat demons to Heming County and collected zombie bones, yin-tainted soil, and Corpse Yin Crystals from the abandoned graveyard.

• The Spirit Rat Line continued developing Nine Winds Valley in secret as Shi Jian’s second foothold and potential escape route.

As the devil calamity spread through the Clear Blue Kingdom, Zhou Yuan escaped to the Jin Kingdom, while Ming Province remained mostly untouched. Lord Rat developed a new Yin Rat Line, and Shi Jian strengthened his soul until his Divine Sense reached Nascent Soul level.

• Zhou Yuan evaded three pursuits by a Nascent Soul True Lord and took refuge with the Blood Bone Devil Sect in the Jin Kingdom.

Shi Jian learned of an ancient method for transforming humans into demons and worked with Purple Firmament to remake it into a tool for controlling cultivators. He planned to introduce the Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction in the Liang Kingdom through the green ape clan.

• Shi Jian asked Purple Firmament about methods that could turn human cultivators into demons, and Purple Firmament described the Blood-Devouring Transformation Instruction.
• Shi Jian decided to exploit the Liang Kingdom’s political tensions and chose the green ape clan on Beast Pasturing Mountain to spread the method.

• Shi Jian made transformation irreversible at Foundation Establishment, ensuring cultivators would be recognized as demons by righteous cultivators.
• Shi Jian chose the name Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction for the revised method.

Shi Jian sent Cang Ya and Bi Luo of the Green Ape Tribe to the Liang Kingdom to spread the Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction and establish a sect serving the demon race.

• Cang Ya and Bi Luo traveled to You Prefecture and chose the declining Lin Household as their target.
• The apes ambushed and killed Lin Changsong in Black Mud Swamp, then Cang Ya copied his appearance using his face and a Demon Race Secret Method.

• Cang Ya privately gave Lin Yue the Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction and told him to study it.
• Lin Yue discovered that the method required raw flesh and five kinds of hearts, and recognized it as the way of an Evil Cultivator.

Cang Ya pushed Lin Yue to cultivate the Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction, which quickly strengthened him and began to warp his disposition. After Cang Ya learned that Lin Changhai planned an attack, he trapped and killed the first elder and his followers, leaving Lin Yue more fearful and hungry for power.

• Cang Ya pressured Lin Yue into cultivating the technique with beast hearts, and Lin Yue made rapid progress as his temperament began to change.
• Bi Luo reported that Lin Changhai had planted spies, and Cang Ya ordered her to wait for the first elder to make a move so he could purge the clan’s opposition.

• Lin Changhai led dozens of followers to attack Cang Ya’s empty chamber, but Cang Ya and Bi Luo trapped them in a deadly vine formation.
• Cang Ya killed Lin Changhai and all the rebels, then told Lin Yue to claim they had colluded with Devil Cultivators; Lin Yue accepted the story and became even more determined to gain power.

After taking control of the Lin Household, Cang Ya used Holy Blood to recruit and transform Rogue Cultivators into loyal Demon Humans. Beneath the household, Bi Luo established the Sacred Blood Sect, whose believers prepared to resist the great immortal clans.

• Cang Ya consolidated control of the Lin Household, recruited live-in sons-in-law, and gave Li Tie Holy Blood and the Marrow-Cleansing Sainthood Transformation Instruction.

• Cang Ya supplied the sect through the Lin Household's businesses while Bi Luo recruited and indoctrinated followers with promises of strength and resistance against the great immortal sects and clans.

Five years after the Sacred Blood Sect began cultivating followers through sacred blood, Bi Luo sent its rapidly growing forces to destroy the Chen Household, led by the transformed Li Tie. The sect spread across Taizhen Commandery while Cang Ya concealed its role from the Mysterious Water Sect, then secretly sent a message after its steward departed.

• Li Tie reached Foundation Establishment Early Stage after five years of sacred-blood cultivation, while Bi Luo rallied hundreds of followers and ordered an attack on the Chen Household.
• Li Tie and the Sacred Blood Sect members broke through the Chen Household's formation, killed Chen Tai, slaughtered the household, and looted its storehouse.

• Cang Ya bribed Song Changfeng with a Storage Bag, saw him off, and used a communication Jade Slip to send a secret message.

Shi Jian supplied Essence Blood that helped the Sacred Blood Sect strengthen its followers, and Cang Ya and Bi Luo established a profitable black market in Coiling Dragon Valley. The market’s success cut deeply into the Mysterious Iron Gang’s business, leaving its leader Tie Wuya uncertain how to respond to the mysterious sect.

• Shi Jian condensed three drops of Essence Blood, which Lord Rat’s Wind Rats carried to Fallen Leaf County.
• Bi Luo appointed Li Tie and five other Foundation Establishment cultivators as the Sacred Blood Sect’s six grand protectors, assigning them to command followers across Taizhen Commandery.
• Cang Ya and Bi Luo agreed to build an underground black market in Coiling Dragon Valley to fund the sect and recruit useful followers.

• Tie Wuya learned that the Sacred Blood Sect had taken much of the Mysterious Iron Gang’s business, but his hall masters could not identify who backed it.

The Mysterious Iron Gang withdrew to its headquarters while Tie Wuya tried to avoid provoking the Sacred Blood Sect. Cang Ya ordered a surprise attack, and Li Tie led the sect’s forces in breaking the gang’s defenses.

• Li Tie and his forces attacked the manor, shattered its defensive formation, and charged inside.

The Sacred Blood Sect destroyed the Mysterious Iron Gang, killed its leader Tie Wuya, and seized the gang’s wealth. Bi Luo disguised the massacre as the work of Jin Kingdom Devil Cultivators, prompting Taizhen Commandery to impose martial law while the sect went underground to consolidate its gains.

• The Sacred Blood Sect’s fanatical members broke through the Mysterious Iron Gang’s defenses with their body-tempered strength and brutal tactics.

Six years after the Sacred Blood Sect withdrew from sight, Cang Ya had turned its Coiling Dragon Valley black market into a powerful operation and planned to disguise the sect with genuine devil cultivators and varied cultivation methods. As the Kunyuan Secret Realm prepared to open, he offered Bi Luo the Green Ape Clan’s place and asked her to enter.

• Over six years, the Mysterious Water Sect hunted for devil cultivators in Taizhen Commandery while the Sacred Blood Sect stayed hidden and Cang Ya built the Coiling Dragon Valley black market.
• Bi Luo delivered devil-path cultivation methods, and Cang Ya ordered copies distributed to lower and middle ranks to conceal the sect’s true connection to the Demon Race.
• Cang Ya explained that he had recruited genuine rogue Devil Cultivators as branch leaders and planned to infiltrate Guangling Commandery gradually rather than confront Evergreen Valley directly.
• Bi Luo reported that the Kunyuan Secret Realm would open in a few years and that White Cloud Temple had received twenty places, while the Old Ancestor had ten.
• Cang Ya gave Bi Luo the Green Ape Clan’s place in the secret realm and asked her to go, saying the sect would remain under his watch.

As the Kunyuan Secret Realm opened after a century, White Cloud Temple prepared its human and demon elites to seek Heaven and Earth Qi.

• Yun Du outlined the secret realm's regions and targeted the core blessed lands, while Shi Jian argued that Lu Xun needed the experience despite the danger.

Sun Yao led the White Cloud Temple and Azure Light Gate group through the Kunyuan Secret Realm after they all gathered in the Giant Tree Forest. They killed five Azure Edge Sect disciples who ambushed them, then moved cautiously between the Grand Purity Sect and the Azure Edge Sect.

• Sun Yao and the other cultivators entered the Kunyuan Secret Realm, while Shi Jian and Purple Firmament discussed the dangers awaiting them.
• Sun Yao regrouped the scattered members of her party in the Giant Tree Forest, and Bi Luo identified their location and advised them to avoid a nearby battle.
• The party found three corpses marked by the Grand Purity Sect's Purple Yang True Fire and tried to skirt the sect's path.
• Five Azure Edge Sect disciples ambushed the party with a formation, but Sun Yao ordered an attack and her group swiftly killed them.
• Bi Luo collected the Azure Edge Sect disciples' Storage Bags, and Sun Yao led the party onward through the gap between the two sects.

Sun Yao’s group reached the Ten Thousand Dao Marsh, where rival sects had gathered to seize the newly matured Cloud and Water Heaven and Earth Qi. As the factions clashed, White Cloud Temple and Azure Light Gate made their move, and Sun Yao confronted three Grand Purity Sect cultivators at the central island.

• After more than half a month of travel, Sun Yao’s group reached the Ten Thousand Dao Marsh and saw that rival sects had surrounded it.
• Sun Yao ordered the group to hide in an underwater cavern and wait for the Heaven and Earth Qi to mature.
• Three days later, a pillar of Qi rose from the central island, and the gathered factions erupted into battle.
• Sun Yao led White Cloud Temple and Azure Light Gate out of hiding toward the island while Kuang Dou and Liu Qing disrupted the Vast Righteousness School’s formation.
• Sun Yao broke through to the island but was confronted by three Grand Purity Sect cultivators led by the purple-robed youth.
• Sun Yao unleashed ice swords and cloud chains against the three cultivators as Sun Chengzu rushed to her aid with twelve flying swords.

Sun Yao’s group fought Han Yue and the Grand Purity Sect for access to the giant island’s core, while other factions battled across the flooded realm.
