After taking over
K'un-Lun,
Lin Feng–along with his recruits
Steel Serpent, Neon Dragon, and
Tiger's Faithful Daughter–leads his Dark Army to destroy the
Seven Heavenly Cities, killing most of the
Immortal Weapons in the process. Feng fails to find the last soul orb of
Chiyou, which he needs to revive the dark god, but his ally
Loki reassures him that the orb is in K'un-Lun. Fearing that his alliance will not spare
Asgard from Feng's conquest, Loki appears at the
underworld and informs
Osiris of Feng's plans. Osiris orders the former
Iron Fist Danny Rand, who has since become Osiris' avatar Ghost Fist, to leave the underworld to stop Chiyou's revival. A date between
Lin Lie, the current Iron Fist, and
White Fox at an aquarium in
Monterey is interrupted by a
kaiju attack, which the two quell together. Upon arriving back at his hideout in
New York City, Lie is reprimanded by
Fooh for misusing his teleportation technology and gets into an argument with
Pei over Feng's motives and Lie's failure in upholding Danny's legacy as the new Iron Fist. Struggling to reconnect with
Shou-Lao since he last contacted him, Iron Fist investigates an anomaly Fooh detects in
Hell's Kitchen, where he comes across Neon Dragon fighting
Daredevil and
White Tiger and helps the two heroines fight off the villain. Upon teleporting back to K'un-Lun, Neon Dragon warns Feng that Lie is in New York, which Feng had been preparing to invade. Not wanting to delay his plans, Feng empowers Neon Dragon to open a portal from K'un-Lun over the New York skyline, which causes the shards in Lie's arms to send him in agonizing pain, and has Steel Serpent lead his army of War Fists in attacking the city. Fighting through the pain, Lie discovers the Steel Serpent and the War Fists have been imbued with the power of the Iron Fist that has been tainted by Chiyou's magic. Fooh arrives as backup and supplies Lie, Daredevil and White Tiger with weapons against the War Fists. Meanwhile, Pei and White Fox use the Randall Gate to teleport to K'un-Lun, but are met with resistance by forces led by Faithful and includes
Yu-Ti Sparrow–who is now under the influence of Chiyou after she and her resistance army failed to stop Feng. Loki returns to the K'un-Lun throne room to check on Feng's progress and Feng begins suspecting Loki's loyalty. Iron Fist and the others realize that Steel Serpent and his forces are stalling them and are focusing their attention towards a mysterious building in the city; the building is revealed to be the Third Tower of Wisdom of the
Inhumans which contains a portal
Attilan, which Feng had been targeting for conquest. Despite the efforts of Iron Fist, his allies and the Friends of the Tower, Steel Serpent manages to reach the portal but is stopped by
Karnak and
Aero. Enraged, Feng summons his remaining forces in K'un-Lun to invade New York, giving Pei and White Fox an opportunity to escape. The two encounter the remaining members of Sparrow's resistance, who give Pei Shou-Lao's reborn but sterile egg. After formulating a plan with Karnak, Lie, Aero, Daredevil and White Tiger invade Neon Dragon's portal while Karnak and Fooh remain behind to secure the area. With help from the Tiger God, the group enters the partially summoned Tower of K'un-Lun, which links New York and K'un-Lun together. When Feng appears at the tower, Lie orders the others to continue without him while he fights his brother. Feng uses his sorcery to extract the shards of the Sword of Fu Xi from Lie's arms, which he forges into the Sword of Chiyou and severs Lie's right arm. == Publication history ==
