Huo Yuhao asked the Star Dou Great Forest’s Fierce Beasts to apologize to Tian Meng, then swore to repay those who remained loyal to him. Gu Yuena entrusted the forest to Di Tian, gave Huo Yuhao two pieces of Gold of Life, and prepared to leave for the human world with him and Qiu’er.

As Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen began an intense discussion, a sleepy orange-blonde girl entered and stirred memories of their first meeting.

• Huo Yuhao shaped Titanium Gold and engraved a shifting Cascading Array of fourth-rank arrays, astonishing Xuan Ziwen.
• Xuan Ziwen learned that Huo Yuhao had proposed the new research concept for the Sealed Milk Bottle and experienced his Spiritual Detection Sharing.
• Huo Yuhao argued that ordinary people already used Soul Tools powered by electricity and sunlight, leading Xuan Ziwen to recognize how Soul Power and Soul Masters had narrowed his perspective.
• Xuan Ziwen realized he needed to look beyond Soul-Power-operated devices and began treating Huo Yuhao as a fellow Soul Engineer.
• Xiao Xiao, Qiu'er, Wang Dong'er, and Lin Jiayi watched as Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen debated, then a sleepy orange-blonde girl entered the room and reminded Huo Yuhao of their first meeting.

• Keke and Zimu decided to apologize to Huo Yuhao, while Wang Shaojie left to seek revenge.
• Jing Hongchen refused to make Huo Yuhao apologize to the nobles and ordered Xu Tianran admitted for an audience.

Jing Hongchen recognized that Huo Yuhao’s belt-like prototype could connect to other Core Arrays, leaving Mingde Hall eager to support his research.

• Jing Hongchen examined Huo Yuhao’s prototype and told Xuan Ziwen its Core Array could connect to others, realizing that Huo Yuhao had devised a concept beyond his own giant battle armor.

• Ju Zi explained Silver Wolves as elemental soul beasts, and Huo Yuhao corrected her by identifying their power as Chaos Attribute linked to Mithril-enhanced elemental affinity.
• Huo Yuhao left the All-Terrain Detection Soul Tool, blocked the Silver Wolf’s Wind Blades with ice crystals, intimidated it with the Ice Empress’s simulated aura, and knocked it down with a punch.
• Huo Yuhao gave Ju Zi the frozen Silver Wolf corpse, then fired a signal flare to summon the others and said he wanted to find Fourth Soul Rings for himself and Xiao Xiao.

• Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Impact shattered the Silver Moon Wolf King’s seven-colored defense and blinded it, but the beast survived.

Huo Yuhao defeated the Silvermoon Wolf King, then captured a Silverhorn Goat for Xiao Xiao to absorb as her fourth soul ring. After absorbing the wolf king’s soul ring himself, he woke the next morning beside Gu Yuena and the others, with Ju Zi’s Soul Tool testing still to come.

• Huo Yuhao used Everfrost Domain and the Ice Explosion Technique to cripple the Silvermoon Wolf King, then killed it with the Golden Dragon Spear as the remaining Golden Wolves retreated.
• Huo Yuhao sensed a Silverhorn Goat with an ancient Xiezhi Bloodline, captured it alive, and brought it back for Xiao Xiao.
