• Xun Kun asked whether Liao Ziqian could endure until the end, and Yunxi said the Evil God's soul thread had failed to devour him completely and that he could hold on.
• Xun Kun told Yunxi that Demon Emperor Mo Ya had forcibly stabilized the Secret Realm and that the Demonic Sect had barred disciples below the Great Luo Golden Devil Realm and assigned its Elite and Core Disciples other tasks.
• Yunxi learned that Xun Kun's background exempted him from the restrictions and asked whether he was determined to enter the Secret Realm.

Three days later, Yin-Yang Worms poured through the still-open Wormhole, and the fleet’s first attempt to fight them went badly.

• Dongfang Chongguang sent a Mecha Squad to test attacks on the worms, but within fifteen minutes half of the squad’s mechas had lost power and become nourishment for the insects.

Dongfang Chongguang's fleet destroyed the first wave of Yin-Yang Worms with a Hydrogen-Uranium Bomb, but Yunxi realized the Insectoid Race would send stronger forces through the Wormhole.
