Zhu Yan woke up and learned that Shi Xuelu and Qing Gang had saved her. Seeing that the two had decided to be together, Zhu Yan sincerely expressed her blessings. She also learned that they were going to Jiuyi Mountain to find Shi Ying and urged them not to mention her name. Zhu Yan asked about Xuelu's situation and found out that she regretted not being able to bring her mother's tablet back to the Bai Mansion. Zhu Yan believed that a mother's concern would never be for a heartless man who refused to acknowledge her and a tablet in the Bai Mansion. It would be for her beloved daughter. Now that Xuelu and Qing Gang were together and excelled in Bai Clan's magic, this was what Xuelu's mother wanted to see. With Zhu Yan's comforting words, Xuelu finally understood the situation.

Zhu Yan learned that Shi Ying had decided to take off his divine robe and descend to the Hell of Ten Thousand Tribulations. She was worried and rushed to Jiuyi Mountain. As the Lord Qing was demoted to a commoner and Qing Gang was crowned as Lord Qing, they learned from the messenger that someone from the Ice Clan was rushing to Jiuyi Mountain. Qing Gang and Xuelu were concerned that the Ice Clan might attack Shi Ying while he was facing the Hell of Ten Thousand Tribulations, so they immediately set off for Jiuyi Mountain.

Shi Ying had no regrets about taking off his divine robe and returning to the mortal world for Zhu Yan. He entered the Hell of Ten Thousand Tribulations step by step, activating the magic to enter the illusion of his heart's demon. There, he saw his mother, Bai Yan, who told him the words they exchanged before parting. This time, Shi Ying chose to stay with his mother, but to his dismay, he saw Bai Yan swallow fire and perish. He was overwhelmed with grief.

Seeing Shi Ying injured, Chong Ming was puzzled, and Da Si Ming explained that Shi Ying was now facing his greatest fear and pain in life. He was using all his heart's blood to resist. If he couldn't overcome it, he might become a demon. Meanwhile, Shi Ying saw Zhu Yan in the illusion of his heart's demon. Zhu Yan hated him for killing Zhi Yuan and wanted to kill him with her own hands. Shi Ying manifested a dagger and chose to commit suicide.

In reality, Zhu Yan hurried to Jiuyi Mountain, trying to stop Shi Ying from killing himself, but was blocked by the boundary of the Hell of Ten Thousand Tribulations. Inside the Hell, Shi Ying passed the test of his heart's demon and entered the ultimate trial, enduring the strikes of heavenly thunder and sustaining severe injuries. His magical powers were also revoked. Eventually, Shi Ying broke through the Hell of Ten Thousand Tribulations and collapsed in Zhu Yan's arms.

Da Si Ming had prepared for this day for ten years, and he fed Shi Ying a spirit medicine. At this time, Wu Xian arrived with his people, and Chong Ming, Qing Gang, and Bai Xuelu all fought to protect Shi Ying. However, they were no match for Wu Xian. Da Si Ming instructed them to protect Shi Ying while he dealt with the ten witches of the Ice Clan. The ten witches used a suicidal formation to try to kill everyone, and Da Si Ming was severely injured in the process. At the critical moment, Zhu Yan used the power of Heaven's Wrath to successfully kill nine of the ten witches of the Ice Clan. However, Wu Xian, using his last strength, tried to kill Shi Ying, and Da Si Ming shielded him and suffered heavy injuries.

Shi Ying wanted to use his spiritual power to rescue Da Si Ming, but he had lost his powers. Da Si Ming looked at Shi Ying's eyes and was reminded of his beloved Bai Yan. He didn't want to see those eyes shed tears again, so he wiped them away before dying in Shi Ying's arms.

Before he died, Da Si Ming revealed the truth about the Autumn Water Case to Shi Ying. It was Concubine Qing who used venom to manipulate Bai Yan, and when she was exposed, she chose to commit suicide. He managed to find out the truth before his death and cleared Bai Yan and her son's name, making it not in vain for his life. The attack of the ten witches was not accidental, and Kongsang might be caught in another war again. Shi Ying regained his life but lost his powers. Da Si Ming wanted to advise him to take care of himself, but he knew that Shi Ying wouldn't just stand by when Yun Huang was in chaos. He only advised him to do what he could and be at peace with his conscience.

After paying their respects to Da Si Ming, Qing Gang and Bai Xuelu decided to return to Jia Lan to find out the reason behind the attack of the ten witches. After bidding farewell to Zhu Yan and Shi Ying, they hurriedly left the mountain. Shi Yu and Bai Xueying were caught secretly worshipping Concubine Qing, but the King of Bei Mian did not blame them. Qing Gang didn't tell Shi Ying about Bai Fenglin's crime because he didn't want to burden Shi Ying, who had lost his powers. Bai Xuelu told him that he could report it to the Emperor when he faced the court.
