Sixteen years of smooth sailing, with good talent, a good family background, and high cultivation level, Su Mali did not become discouraged by other geniuses due to temporary setbacks. Instead, she worked hard day and night to improve her cultivation level, which greatly improved.
On the day of the sect competition, Su Mali faced off against Huang Yanheng. Originally, Huang Yanheng was running out of steam, and Su Mali should have won. However, Huang Yanheng's potential exploded, and she narrowly defeated Su Mali. From then on, Su Mali was at a disadvantage against Huang Yanheng in every way. She was excluded from the Three Clouds Gathering, couldn't find the secret realm of opportunity, and her parents, brothers, and master all doted on Huang Yanheng, leaving Su Mali to become a mere background figure.
Huang Yanheng always had a slight edge over Su Mali, and over the years, little by little, Huang Yanheng became Su Mali's inner demon. On the day of her tribulation and ascension, Su Mali's inner demon flared up, and she was annihilated by the lightning tribulation of the nine heavens.
Day after day, year after year, nearly a thousand years have passed. Su Mali has been living under the influence of Huang Yanheng. No matter how broad-minded she is, she ignores it once, laughs it off twice, and does it three, four, five times... and then what?

An eye for an eye, and Su Mali couldn't afford to show favoritism.
After absorbing the original owner's memories, Ji Xiaoxiao opened her sleepy eyes. It was already late, the sun was setting, the moon hung high in the sky, and the world was bathed in silvery light—a breathtaking sight.
Rubbing her throbbing temples, Ji Xiaoxiao awkwardly made a hand seal, and an opening appeared on the smooth, mirror-like peak. The cave was deep and dark, but Ji Xiaoxiao was not afraid. She dusted herself off and walked straight down.
"Huang Yanheng, I wonder how you can fight me without 'Dao Tian'?" Ji Xiaoxiao walked into the tunnel, and candlelight immediately lit up on both sides of the tunnel.
The dim candlelight flickered in the wind, casting elongated, swaying shadows.

Keep going, keep going, keep going!
Only four more to reach one hundred, don't give up!
