• Fang Chen asked the Elf Queen for a powerful longbow, and Myna bird claimed Fang Chen was skilled with a bow.
• The Elf Queen led Fang Chen, Saint Bai Ling, and the others into the Elf Divine Tree's canopy to see an unusual tree.

• Fang Chen learned that no other Dark Elf Emperor was known to have existed and asked how he could handle the bow if even the elves could not.

Fang Chen approached the Dark Elf Divine Bow and tried to awaken its recognition by touching the tree that housed it and using his Darkness Devouring God Domain. The tree devoured his domain and sent a surge of power and unfamiliar information into him, leaving the Elf Queen and the others hopeful that it had finally responded.

• The Elf Queen, the Elf Saintess, and High Priest Ou Minghai urged Fang Chen to try making the Dark Elf Divine Bow accept him as its master.

Fang Chen tested his skill with the Dark Elf Divine Bow by trying to hit two distant, fast-moving targets, nearly striking one. As he considered a second attempt, he recalled the Dark Elf Emperor Ao An Ye’s inheritance and the harsh early years of his life.

• The Elf Queen explained that Fang Chen’s arrow could threaten a Four-Star Quasi-Emperor from ten thousand miles away, then sent two Red Beads darting through the sky as targets.
