• Song Ankang reached Dark Fire Divine Thunder Valley, where the Noah Demon was recovering under the guard of the injured Galaxy Demon and Gaia Demon.
• Song Ankang secretly set up a Fourth Grade Middle Heavenly Array Group to seal space, confine the three demons, and strengthen attacks from outside the array.
• After several months, Song Ankang completed the arrays without alerting the demons and called Diga, Zero, Orb, Agul, and his other enslaved Ultra Demons to approach and await the ambush.

• Song Ankang weakened Noah Demon for months, then attacked it with the Anti-Dragon Heavenly Array and a series of True Soul techniques.
• While Noah Demon was dazed, the Three Step Soul Chasing Needle followed the link from its incarnation to its main body star and entered the depths of its True Soul Sea.
