Long Haochen faced the Divine Seal Throne of Eternity and Creation’s resistance and chose to stand by Haoyue rather than abandon his companion for the throne’s recognition. After three days of their opposing wills, his soul began to evolve, though he still did not know whether he could pass the trial.

• Long Haochen blocked the giant ape’s attack with the Sun Moon Divine Snail Shield and caught Sisi as they fell toward the forest.
• The giant ape attacked Long Haochen with fiery fists and blasts from its eyes, forcing him to tell Sisi to leave before he fought back with his divine swords.
• Long Haochen’s sword attacks failed to seriously injure the ape, whose ground-smashing fists sent a powerful seismic wave through him.
• Sisi restrained the ape with an icy Water Dragon, giving Long Haochen time to gather himself.
• Long Haochen activated the Domain of the Light God, which enveloped Sisi and the ape and made Sisi’s magic draw on both light and water elements.

Long Haochen evolved the Domain of the Light God, broke through to the third level of the ninth step, and subdued the giant ape by reverting it to a weak, childlike form. After Sisi explained that the ape served the King of Easton, Long Haochen began trying to weaken it permanently, leaving the outcome unresolved.

• Long Haochen sealed the gorilla’s life-growth trajectory for seven days, causing it to revert to infancy if the seal remained unbroken.

• Sisi urged Long Haochen to enter the cave with her during the King of Easton’s daily nap, when she believed they would have their best chance to rescue her family.
