As the crew wrapped up the scenes of Shuhang's relentless beating of Senior White, the plot of the movie ventured deeper into the poignant storyline involving White's first love interest. Purple Mist, a woman whose beauty radiated like a thousand blooming flowers, found herself entangled in an arranged marriage, a fate she could not escape.
White, with his heart aching and his determination unwavering, set off on a desperate quest to prevent the union. Little did he know that his path would be obstructed by a ferocious onslaught of beasts, sent to thwart his every move.
In a twist of fate, White found himself facing the formidable Cave Lord Snow Wolf and his formidable family. The tension in the air was palpable as the audience became deeply invested in White's harrowing plight. The clash between man and beast reverberated through the screen, capturing the essence of a battle fueled by unyielding love and unwavering determination.
But despite White's valiant efforts, he was unable to overcome the relentless assault of the ferocious beasts. They fought tooth and nail, their ferocity matched only by White's unwavering spirit. Yet, in the end, the forces aligned against him proved insurmountable.
Meanwhile, the day of Purple Mist's arranged marriage with Medicine Master arrived, shrouded in an air of melancholy. Despite White's best efforts, he had been unable to prevent the union, and now, his heart shattered into a million shards of unrequited desire.
As the wedding ceremony unfolded, a bittersweet atmosphere filled the air. The exchange of vows and the binding of two souls seemed to echo with the weight of missed opportunities and shattered dreams. Purple Mist, adorned in ceremonial attire, took her place beside Medicine Master, a man chosen by fate rather than by the whispers of her heart.
White, hidden in the shadows, watched the union unfold with a mixture of anguish and resignation. The audience, too, felt the ache of his unfulfilled love and the depths of his sorrow. It was a scene that tugged at the heartstrings, leaving an indelible mark on the souls of those who bore witness to it.
After the intense filming of the scenes featuring Purple Mist's marriage, a side note must be added that the marriage was, in fact, a real event. The conniving Purple Mist took advantage of the movie production to orchestrate a grandiose ceremony, ensuring that even Medicine Master's parents were present in the audience, relishing the extravagant display.
As the excitement of the wedding extravaganza faded, the cast and crew delved into the next phase of their cinematic masterpiece. With hearts still heavy from the emotional scenes depicting the marriage, they prepared to capture the profound impact of the demise of the Void Cloud School.
In the climactic battle against the attacking demons, Song Shuhang, portraying Evil Senior Brother Gao Sheng, fervently fought to redeem himself. Each strike he delivered, each technique he unleashed, was fueled by a desperate desire to protect his comrades and find redemption for his past misdeeds.
Meanwhile, True Monarch Fallout, the revered leader of the Void Cloud School, stood at the forefront, his unwavering resolve shining through the chaos. With each swing of his sword, each shield he conjured, he valiantly led his disciples in a fierce resistance against the mysterious demon influence.
But despite their efforts, the demons proved relentless, and the battle exacted a heavy toll. One by one, the disciples of the Void Cloud School fell, their sacrifices etching an indelible mark upon the hearts of those who watched.
And as the dust settled, only White stood amidst the wreckage, a lone survivor amidst the remnants of a once-great sect. It was in this solemn moment that White, with a heavy heart, made a decision. He would honor the memory of his fallen comrades with a grand funeral, a final tribute to their sacrifice and an opportunity for closure.
The grand funeral became a pivotal scene, capturing the essence of camaraderie, loss, and the unbreakable bonds forged amidst the trials of cultivation. The atmosphere was somber, yet filled with an undercurrent of determination as White, the sole survivor, paid his respects and bid farewell to his fallen friends.
The emotional weight of these scenes resonated deeply with the cast and crew, who found themselves caught up in the intensity of the narrative they were bringing to life. Tears were shed, embraces were shared, and the spirit of unity prevailed even in the face of tragedy.
With the first part of the movie complete, the cast and crew took a well-deserved break, basking in the satisfaction of their collective efforts. Zenith Heaven Emperor surveyed the scene with a mixture of pride and anticipation.

Meanwhile, White Cloud Academy!
Deep within the halls of White Cloud Academy, True Monarch Eternal Fire, a high ranking member of the Holy Man's lineage, received a message. It informed him that the members of the Nine Provinces Number (1) Group were on their way to the academy to shoot the movie as agreed to beforehand. A sense of anticipation and curiosity stirred within him, for he knew that the arrival of White often heralded unforeseen adventures.
Little did True Monarch Eternal Fire know that a grander, more peculiar event was about to unfold, one that involved Zenith Heaven Emperor himself.

During their break, Zenith Heaven Emperor surveyed the completed scenes of the first part of the movie and a sense of satisfaction swelled within him. The cast and crew had poured their hearts and souls into their respective roles, bringing the script to life with a fervor that exceeded his wildest expectations. Yet, there remained a lingering challenge, finding the perfect actors to fill the remaining roles, marked as 'Secret'.
But Zenith Heaven Emperor was not one to be deterred by such trivialities. With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he, since long ago, hatched a plan. He plans to integrate his upcoming meeting with the leader of Ruism, Daozi, into the script itself, by secretly filming it. How convenient it would be to combine the realms of reality and fiction, abusing the high ranking members of Ruism for his enjoyment of shooting a movie!

After a short, well-deserved break, the cast and crew of the movie embarked to the location of the second part of the movie. The location had shifted to the esteemed headquarters of Ruism, the illustrious White Cloud Academy.
The White Cloud Academy stood as a testament to the grandeur of cultivation, its elegant architecture reaching towards the heavens. The air was imbued with a sense of tranquility, carrying whispers of ancient wisdom that echoed through its halls.
As the cast and crew settled into their temporary accommodations within the academy, Zenith Heaven Emperor couldn't help but marvel at the magnificent surroundings. Each step he took resonated with a sense of purpose, for this was not merely a filming location, it was a pivotal setting in their grand plan.
As the night sky enveloped the esteemed White Cloud Academy, Zenith Heaven Emperor seized the opportunity to slip out of his room, his steps guided by a sense of purpose. The corridors, normally bustling with cultivators honing their skills or enjoying a peaceful respite, now lay shrouded in silence.
After doing so, he abused his Way of Eternal Life by using the Visionary Pathway to Envision cameras filming everything that happens. He really wants to see the faces of the mortals when they realize that they watched a movie that turned into reality. After all, his plan includes making the supernatural world, which was a tightly kept secret, into public knowledge.
Under the moon's gentle glow, Zenith Heaven Emperor made his way to a secluded corner of the academy's vast grounds. It was here that he would meet with Daozi and the other three surviving Tribulation Immortals, a secretive meeting that was planned since ancient times.
The table, bathed in moonlight, awaited their gathering. As Zenith Heaven Emperor approached, he noticed the four figures already seated, their expressions a mixture of curiosity and anticipation. The air crackled with an unspoken understanding, an acknowledgment that the time for revelations had come.
