• The group found a weakened Myriad Beast Spirit Flame atop another stone pillar.

Xiao Yan and the others crossed a plaza displaying Heavenly Flames from the ranking, most of them drained of their power. Xiao Yan suspected the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame and Nihility Devouring Flame had escaped their pillars, and the group uncovered a colossal statue of Tou She Ancient God as they searched for the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.

• Xiao Yan and the others saw genuine but weakened Heavenly Flames arranged in ranking order across the plaza.

Nihility Devouring Flame used the Pill Transformation Ring to capture the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill while Gu Yuan, Zhu Kun, Xiao Yan, and Wei Yang battled Soul Heavenly Emperor and the Soul Clan.

• Xiao Yan rejected Nihility Devouring Flame's offer of half its origin and demanded seventy percent plus the Heaven Sub-Flame for safe passage out of the cave.
• Nihility Devouring Flame refused the demand, threatened to destroy its origin, then agreed to give Xiao Yan sixty percent and the Heaven Sub-Flame.
