• Jin Tianming considered using Dragon Transformation and his Radiant Gold Ancient Dragon's strength to absorb a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring as his third ring, then sent Moxie away and turned to studying Soul Engineer knowledge.

Tian Mucheng learned that his Living Dead Physique kept the God Realm from noticing him until he absorbed more fortune, and he discussed how to pursue the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well without exposing their plans.
