In the same year, Xu Xing encountered Saintess Wu Miao of the Starfall Sect, with whom he had a one-hundred-year agreement, and the two engaged in dual cultivation.
Later, Wu Miao faced a fatal tribulation and was saved by Ruan Baimei.
Xu Xing and Ruan Baimei had a verbal confrontation, after which Xu Xing established the Butian Sect on the sea.
In the 145th year of Tiande, as a result of rescuing Wu Miao, Xu Xing was forced to flee to Weishan Island. After two years in seclusion, with the help of Wu Miao's pure Yin Element, he successfully broke through to the Dao Pill Fourth Stage.
In the 146th year of Tiande, Wu Miao resigned, planning to return to the Starfall Sect to inherit the Sect Leader Position.
Unable to bear seeing Wu Miao go alone, and considering the difficulty of establishing a presence in the Wangchuan Sea, Xu Xing decided to accompany her to the North Wilderness.
