• Seven days later, Meng Lie questioned Kakus about the Rakshasa Sea Region and confirmed that the merchant could guide the warship to the beastmen’s general location.
• Dongfang Qing ordered Meng Lie to enter the Rakshasa Sea Region and establish the precise location before Lin Sheng arrived.

Meng Lie’s fleet entered the Rakshasa Sea Region while Kakus secretly sabotaged the ship and Dongfang Qing went ahead to scout the beastmen’s territory. Lin Sheng arrived in the region just as a large force of beastmen surrounded the fleet, including a Grandmaster-level leader.

The chapter ended with Silo’s Holy Knight Thor Reeves asking Tang Chong for help after the disaster corrupted his arm and worsened when he tried to suppress it.

• Lin Sheng tested the black mist with force pythons and his own hand, then fled when it devoured them and ordered the warship out of the waters.
• Dongfang Qing told Lin Sheng that the mist resembled the Black Disaster in the Silo Kingdom, which had driven its royal family and nobles to seek refuge in Heavenly Origin.
• Lin Sheng wondered whether the sea vortices were the source of the Black Disaster and returned to cultivation to prepare for the danger.
• At the Military Department Great Hall, Tang Chong played a game with Thor Reeves, who admitted that his efforts to suppress the Black Disaster had made it worsen.
• Thor showed Tang Chong his withered, blackened arm and asked him for help; Tang Chong grasped it as eerie light filled the hall.

Lin Sheng returned to the Imperial Capital after improving his cultivation during the voyage, and learned that Northern Yan had withdrawn its troops and Tang Chong had returned.

With the disaster expected to reach Southern Qi in ten years, Lin Sheng resolved to accelerate his cultivation and either overcome the calamity or break free of the world.

• Tang Chong explained that past Void Transformation Tribulations had depleted the world's energy, leaving fewer powerful beings, and predicted that another tribulation might eventually prevent void-tier beings from appearing.
