Arc 2Reversal and the Grand Ceremony
Qin Qi mastered and revised Threefold Reversal, rebuilt the Three-One Sect’s standing, and recruited Ma Xianhong and Biyou Village’s residents. At the Luotian Grand Ceremony, Qin Qi dominated his matches, helped Zhuge Qing accept defeat, and continued exploring the limits of his cultivation.

- Qin Qi concluded that Threefold Reversal was incomplete, developed a revised method, and persuaded Lu Jin to help pass it on to future disciples.
- Qin Qi helped Ma Xianhong recover memories of his abduction, brought him and most of Biyou Village under his protection, and promised to keep searching for Ma Xianhong’s family.
- Qin Qi recruited villagers and developed plans for Ma Xianhong’s everyday artifacts, then made a spectacular entrance at Mount Longhu by creating a bridge, twelve towers, and five cities from Innate Primordial Qi.
- Qin Qi defeated three opponents by draining their Qi, profited from match records and betting, and backed Zhang Chulan at five hundred to one.
- Qin Qi broke Zhuge Qing’s formation in their match, then spoke privately with him about failure and defeated him in a renewed sparring match.
- Zhuge Qing decided to return home and try the True Fire of Samadhi again, while Qin Qi experimented with forming Innate Primordial Qi into a true flame and Liu Wukui reported a large bet on Zhang Chulan.
