Hua Shu failed in the Heavenly Palace election and was not chosen as the Cloud Lord, causing her anger and frustration. She intended to confront Emperor Lan Feng about it. However, Hua Shu unexpectedly discovered that Emperor Lan Feng had been on the Qinglong Terrace these days. When she went there in person, she found out that Emperor Lan Feng had been self-punishing due to the incident with the protective spirit arrow, enduring successive heavenly thunder punishments, leaving him weak and vulnerable. It turned out that Emperor Lan Feng had already found out Hua Shu's connection with the protective spirit arrow, deliberately framing A Yin. However, he chose to conceal this information and took the blame for Hua Shu. Furthermore, Emperor Lan Feng proposed to Hua Shu again, knowing her scheming nature, but he did it for the sake of the Peacock Clan. As a heavenly lord, he had to act justly and prevent her from going astray, committing harmful actions. Touched by his words, Hua Shu agreed to their marriage.

Qing Lin handed the Divine Slayer Flower seed to the Peacock King, instructing him to plant it in the immortal veins of Daze Mountain and have Feng Ming cooperate. Feng Ming used the Linglong Tower of Phoenix Mountain to distract Xian Shan, Xian Zhu, and Gu Jin. Despite their combined efforts to reinforce the enchantment, it proved ineffective. The urgent task was to either obtain the Phoenix Immortal Essence or have someone sacrifice their immortal essence to stabilize the Linglong Tower. Gu Jin believed the calamity was caused by himself and decided to contribute his immortal essence. Qing Yi was extremely worried and hurriedly informed A Yin and others. A Yin asked Hong Yi and Yan Shuang to stop Gu Jin, stating that she had a way to retrieve the Phoenix Immortal Essence. Her method involved going to the Youming Realm and offering half of her inner elixir's spiritual power in an equal exchange with Ao Ge.

Soon, spiritual power flowed into Xiu Yan's body through A Yin's fingertips, silently repairing his soul, strengthening it until the shattered soul imprint deep within his ghostly core gradually gathered and became powerful and stable. In contrast, A Yin's face became increasingly pale. To express gratitude to A Yin, Xiu Yan not only handed over two Phoenix Immortal Essences but also helped her advance her cultivation, promoting her to the rank of Lower Deity. However, in the next moment, A Yin deduced that Xiu Yan was, in fact, Ao Ge. Indeed, Ao Ge revealed the truth to A Yin, admitting that Ao Ge and Xiu Yan were originally twin brothers—one in charge of the Heavenly Palace, the other managing the Youming Realm. In the demon-sealing battle ten thousand years ago, Demon God Ming Qi and the demons broke through the seal of the Nine Abyss Execution Purgatory. The Emperor's consorts and the merging true gods coincidentally descended to the mortal world, so he and Ao Ge led tens of thousands of gods to quell the chaos, with Xiu Yan sacrificing himself to summon an army and seal the Demon God once again.

Later, Ao Ge found fragments of Xiu Yan's inner elixir, broke into the Hall of Life and Death for him, stole the Book of Life and Death, and found the merging true god who had undergone trials in the mortal realm. He pleaded with her to use the power of chaos to condense Xiu Yan's inner elixir fragments. However, if the merging true god used the power of chaos to condense the fragments, it would take tens of thousands of years, during which there would be no new executioners in the Qiankun Platform, causing chaos in the world. In this way, Ao Ge decided to take over Xiu Yan's role in managing the Youming Realm, becoming one entity with Xiu Yan. As Ao Ge narrated the past to A Yin, Demon God Ming Qi had new plans and tried to persuade Xiu Yan to give up his seal. He offered to use the inner elixir fragments to rebuild his body, but Xiu Yan rejected the proposal.

Hong Yi and Yan Shuang hastily rushed to Phoenix Mountain to stop Gu Jin, informing him of A Yin's journey to the Youming Realm. Alarmed by this news, when Gu Jin arrived at the Youming Realm, A Yin was already weak, and after handing over two Phoenix Immortal Essences, she fell into a coma. Gu Jin brought A Yin back to Daze Mountain, and Xian Shan and others diagnosed her, discovering that her lifespan was about to end. It turned out that when A Yin's mother was pregnant with them, she was injured by a demon. Although A Yin was fortunately born later, her lifespan was not even a hundred years, at most ten years. Now, A Yin sacrificed half of her lifespan, living in the mortal realm for over four years, which meant she had less than a year left. Shocked and saddened by this revelation, Gu Jin, unable to believe it, attempted to find other ways to save A Yin. Xian Zhu mentioned that for a divine beast to break free from the shackles of lifespan, they needed to become gods. However, becoming a god within a short time was wishful thinking.
