After the Hundred Dynasties War, Lin Dong finally steps into the real center of the cultivation world. Parting ways—at least for now—with Xiao Diao and Xiao Yan, he joins Daozong and becomes a direct disciple of the Desolate Hall. Through relentless training, Lin Dong masters the fearsome Great Desolation art and quickly rises as a standout figure inside the super sect.
But growth comes with a price. To defend the greater Dongxuan Domain, Lin Dong throws himself into the sect tournament and even ventures with Daozong companions into the deadly Yi Mo region, where external threats and hidden ambitions collide. As the competition nears its end, Yuanmen suddenly launches a brutal encirclement against Daozong disciples. Lin Dong answers with a decisive formation counterstrike, wiping out Yuanmen forces—only to ignite the wrath of a top Yuanmen leader who begins hunting him without mercy.
Even with his brothers returning to help, the gap is overwhelming. Forced to flee the domain, the trio suffers a catastrophic teleportation accident and is scattered—setting the stage for a darker, higher-stakes fight for survival and reunion.
