Nan Feng held the Immortal Dao ceremony at the Pagoda God Temple, where Yu Tianheng revealed that Ning Yuan belonged to the Abyss Sect, an organization seeking ways to open Abyssal Rifts. Gu Yuena then summoned Nan Feng to Dragon God Lake to inspect a recording left at an Abyss Sect hideout, setting up his next investigation.

Nan Feng completed Nine Rings as One, transforming his physique into a Primordial World Immortal Dao Physique, then went to Dragon God Lake to meet Gu Yuena. A recording revealed the Abyss Sect planned to exploit his efforts to seal rifts, and Nan Feng set out with Gu Yuena to inspect the three rifts and trace the sect’s activity.

• Nan Feng’s nine million-year Soul Rings began merging, so he entered seclusion and sent Shifang to tell Gu Yuena he would arrive in a few days.

Nan Feng discovered that a hidden vein beneath the Star Dou Great Forest was carrying Abyssal turbid Qi to the northern rifts and learned that an Abyss Sect formation was draining Soul Beasts to open another rift. He entered the ancient grove with Bibi Dong and Bi Ji after three normally quiet Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts roared nearby.

• Nan Feng sealed one northern rift, then traced its turbid Qi to a hidden vein and decided to seek Bi Ji's help before sealing the other two.
• Bibi Dong offered to help locate the vein with her Space-Time Spider Emperor and joined Nan Feng on his trip to the Star Dou Great Forest.
• Bi Ji showed Nan Feng and Bibi Dong the vein's route to an underground lake in the Core Circle and reported that Soul Beasts in the western ancient grove had grown restless.

Nan Feng diverted to Sea God Island after Xiao Wu reported that Tang San had shut himself away while his incompatible Sea God and Asura divinities rapidly deteriorated.

• After receiving Xiao Wu's message, Nan Feng, Shifang, and Yue Guan changed course from the Far North and traveled to Sea God Island.

• Nan Feng welcomed representatives from across the empires, sects, and spirit beast territories, and the guests toasted the Immortal Dao before Shifang urged everyone to eat.

A Goddess of Life then visited Nan Feng, questioned why he refused godhood, and left reassured that he had no intention of entering the Divine Realm.

• Nan Feng and Bibi Dong visited the clan’s forbidden area, where Nan Feng removed the bloodline inheritance and told Yu Tianheng that Yu Xiaogang’s theory had been partly right but flawed by treating stolen conclusions as iron laws.
• After returning to Heaven Dou City, Nan Feng met the Goddess of Life, who asked why he would not become a god, and he said he would remain in the mortal world to cultivate and protect his people.

• Bibi Dong told Nan Feng she had seen him glance at her when he said he would protect his people, and the two stood together as the fourth drop of Three Lights Divine Water began to condense.

After returning to Heaven Dou City, he discovered that his urgent communication token had been switched and bore the mark of the Divine Realm’s central authority, a pattern Bibi Dong recognized from the Rakshasa God’s inheritance.

• Nan Feng reached Ice Valley and met the Ice Empress and Snow Empress, who agreed to have the Far North Immortal Alliance join the Immortal Dao and follow its rules.
• Nan Feng put a drop of Three Lights Divine Water into the Far North Origin’s spring, drawing out a crystal that contained its hidden cold poison, which the Ice Empress destroyed.

Nan Feng traced the Abyssal mark on Holy Mother White Lotus’s communication token to Old Scar, who confessed to switching it and exposed several sleeper agents in Heaven Dou City. As new black Qi emerged from the Far North rift and a hidden mole remained in the Divine Realm, Nan Feng prepared to travel north after the city’s contact map was recovered.

• Old Huai identified the token’s golden pattern as an Abyssal tracking mark, and Nan Feng and Bibi Dong traced the switch to a meeting near a western apothecary.
• Huo Wu recalled the masked old man’s scar, and Nan Feng found Old Scar running a secondhand stall with Abyssal-marked books.
• Old Scar confessed that he had switched Holy Mother White Lotus’s token and revealed three other Abyss sleeper agents, whom Shifang and his men captured that night.
