Fu Lin appeared before Bibi Dong and the elders in Spirit Hall, effortlessly repelling their attacks and demonstrating that even Bibi Dong’s divine power could not harm him. He offered Bibi Dong access to the Path of Destruction in exchange for a nominal elder’s title, and the chapter ended after they agreed to cooperate under her restrictions.

Wang Chuan yielded to Tian Meng’s persuasion and told Ning Fengzhi that he could track Xiao Wu, prompting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to plan a hunt for her Spirit Ring.

Wang Chuan accelerated the Blue Silver Emperor’s age to roughly two hundred thousand years, and Ning Fengzhi began absorbing its unstable spirit ring as Tang San vowed revenge and the forest’s ancient will stirred.

• Chen Xin discovered that the Blue Silver Emperor was only about eighty-five thousand years old, and Wang Chuan threatened Tang Hao for deceiving them.
