In the Dark Abyss, Lava Execution Ground, Xie Xuechen was trapped. The Dark Abyss Lord, Sang Qi, led his people there to join forces against Xie Xuechen. Soon, the Dark Abyss’s Holy Maiden, Mu Xuanling, arrived. She remarked that this Melting Abyss had been the burial ground of the gods ten thousand years ago.

Every hour, the wrath of ancient gods would erupt, lashing at one’s soul and causing excruciating pain, making it one of the world’s two most terrifying places, along with the God-Slaying Platform of the Divine Realm. Mu Xuanling mentioned that no one had ever lasted three days here, yet Xie Xuechen had endured seven. She acknowledged his title as the Son of Heaven’s Will and the strongest sword cultivator. Lifting Xie Xuechen’s face, Mu Xuanling commented on his unforgettable appearance.

She asked if they had met before. Xie Xuechen shook off her hand, but Mu Xuanling immediately grabbed his face and kissed him. She teased that she had heard he had endured seven days without yielding and admired his unyielding spirit. Stroking his lips, she mockingly observed that while his bones were hard, his lips were surprisingly soft. Mu Xuanling lamented that it was a pity he had exhausted all his cultivation, leaving him unable to break Sang Qi’s formation.

As she spoke, she began touching him again, remarking that Xie Xuechen was willing to sacrifice his life for humanity and questioning why he bothered. Xie Xuechen sarcastically replied that it would be a shame for such a handsome man to die. A nearby man chimed in, saying that if Xie Xuechen agreed to join them, they would clean him up and present him to her.

Meanwhile, Sang Qi was in seclusion when the Elder of the Decayed Predecessors came to visit him. Sang Qi questioned why the elder insisted on disturbing him during his retreat. The elder praised Sang Qi for being formidable enough to send a clone despite being injured. Sang Qi asked if the elder was there to spy on him. The elder reminded Sang Qi of his promise to assist them.

Sang Qi assured him he hadn’t forgotten and acknowledged their desire for the Chaos Pearl, stating that he was also searching for it. Sang Qi warned them not to interfere, promising to inform them of any results. With that, he took something from the elder before dismissing him. After the elder left, Mu Xuanling arrived, questioning Sang Qi about his collaboration with the human race.

She reminded him of the irreconcilable enmity between their races and accused him of keeping his plans from her. She asked if he thought she was inferior. Mu Xuanling revealed that she knew Sang Qi was searching for the Chaos Pearl and had imprisoned Xie Xuechen in the Melting Abyss to force him to reveal the whereabouts of the Immortal Alliance Token, as only the token could lead to the Chaos Pearl.

As they argued, someone informed them that Xie Xuechen had broken in. Mu Xuanling told Sang Qi to stay while she handled him. Outside, Xie Xuechen had already defeated all the guards at the gate. Mu Xuanling confronted him and the two clashed. However, Xie Xuechen was no match for Mu Xuanling. Soon, Zhan Ying from the Dark Abyss arrived to attack Xie Xuechen.

To stop him, Mu Xuanling placed Xie Xuechen’s sword against her own neck and secretly whispered that this was exactly what she wanted. Using the situation, Mu Xuanling took Xie Xuechen and escaped the Dark Abyss. Xie Xuechen managed to speak a few words before collapsing. Mu Xuanling carried him to a nearby home. When Xie Xuechen awoke, he saw Mu Xuanling. As they playfully wrestled on the bed, an elderly woman entered, bringing Xie Xuechen some food.

The two pretended to be a couple who had eloped and were on the run, hiding from their pursuers. Mu Xuanling insisted on staying by Xie Xuechen’s side, but he refused, reminding her that she was from the Dark Abyss and not a good person. She warned him not to forget that if she wished, she could hold all of humanity hostage for her benefit.

After staying for a few days, they prepared to leave but were pursued by Yu Ying from the Dark Abyss. Using a heart-demon illusion technique, Yu Ying trapped them. Mu Xuanling taunted Yu Ying, asking her to consider how Xie Xuechen had escaped the Melting Abyss. She pointed out that without assistance, Xie Xuechen could never have made it out. Mu Xuanling then revealed that she was the one who had helped him escape. Hearing this, Yu Ying hesitated.
