Wang Jixuan used his foreign soul to draw True Lord Tianyan and the demons above Huanyu City while Peony launched three nuclear missiles at the city. After the blasts destroyed Huanyu City and its demonic forces, Wang Jixuan waited underground to assess whether the surviving great demons were weakened enough to finish off.

Wang Jixuan sought the Moon God Palace skeleton’s guidance about why the Heavenly Dao had marked him, while Yin Lin learned that True Person Baoyan and Dark Cult forces were heading for Earth. The skeleton concluded that Wang Jixuan himself—not his spirit servant or artifact-refining method—was likely destined to threaten the Heavenly Dao, then began demonstrating its abilities.

• Wang Jixuan entered the Moon God Palace and asked the skeleton who had given him the Moonlight Sword for guidance about the Heavenly Dao.

Wang Jixuan used Buddhist rites to strengthen his Strange Soul and gain control of a Pillar-Class Blade Beast, then began planning how to refine it into a powerful combat body. As Peony detected four Stargates opening, Black Obsidian had contacted the Dark Cult and mobilized his forces after spotting what might be Wang Zheng.

• Wang Jixuan’s Strange Soul absorbed the planet’s chanting and purified the Pillar-Class Blade Beast’s grievances, growing powerful enough to take control of the beast.
